And it's great that once you have the viewer you can order as many reels as you want!" —Lauren

My husband was hesitant about getting a device like this in our home, but after an hour he was sold. We have it in our kitchen and *kindly* ask it to play music while we cook and eat, use it to set timers while baking, and ask it funny questions. We love this lil' gadget. We also have a Google Nest Hub by our front door so we always know what's on each other's calendar for the and know what time it is before heading out. We recently bought our first home and have a Google Nest Hub Max that we plan to install to control *all* the things (lights, sounds, etc) a la Disney's Smart House.

Promising review (for the men's): "It's lined with some some thermal insulation, not fleece like the collar. It's super warm. I'm a woman with very broad shoulders, so I decided to go with a men's medium, because the women's shoulder width is usually too small, and it fits perfectly." —Dani S.

It's the thinnest and lightest Kindle Amazon has released to date! And — as is made abundantly clear by the photo above — it's 100% waterproof.
Promising review: "Obsessed with it! I am a huge book reader, and what’s kept me from getting a kindle was the thought 'I love physical books and holding a book' so I was worried I wouldn’t enjoy reading as much with a Kindle. I was wrong. Not only do I read way faster on the Kindle (maybe because it’s a simple tap of a finger to turn a page), but I can have multiple books I’m reading with me in my purse with something that is so light weight, it’s incredible. I haven’t tried out the water proof side of it, although I have read in the bath and that was nice not freaking out! I’m sure in the future, poolside reading will be amazing! Backlight is great, I can read in bed after the hubs has gone to sleep! Overall, I’m super excited about it! I spend less time scrolling on my phone and more time reading, because it is that easy and effortless to read with a Kindle." —Tiffany

Guuuuys. I'm obsessed with these drinks. I tried them on a whim and now I can't get enough of them. I've always been a big soda fan (I don't drink alcohol — everyone who knows me knows my actual vices include ginger ale or Cherry Coke) so I wasn't sure how I'd feel about these prebiotic-infused beverages. And yet, after one sip, I was hooked! My favorite flavors are raspberry rose and strawberry lemonade (so refreshing). Even my husband, who hates anything carbonated, loves these drinks. In addition to their Instagram-able packaging, these babies are free of fat, gluten, GMOs *and* are vegan! While I *could* live without these, I don't want to!

I have one of these babies and let me tell you — it is SOFT. Like softer than soft. It's like being wrapped in a fluffy cloud of love with the added bonus of Disney magic. Does it get better than that? I truly don't think so. My sister alone bought five of these blankets for every member of our family this holiday season, we're kind of obsessed.
Get it from Amazon for $180 (available in two styles).

Promising review: "Wow! I purchased this on a whim after seeing one of my favorite YouTubers try it out. I didn't expect a lot from it. I tried it out and was shocked!!! The mask was simple (and fun) to use. I wasn't sure I felt a lot happening while it was on, but it was pretty cool how the bubbles started to grow off of my face. Upon inspection after using this mask I was completely amazed. My face felt cleaner than it has in a very long time AND my pores looked amazing! I don't remember a time when I felt like my pores looked great before using this mask. I would highly recommend this mask to anyone. It's also so much cheaper than the GlamGlow ones I have been using (and didn't see near these results from)." —K. Textor

Promising review: "I'm normally bored by crosswords and word-search puzzles after a short time, but these have a twist in that you have to answer five Jeopardy-type questions in order to get all the clues for the puzzles. And they aren't necessarily easy, although if you don't know the answer, you can generally figure it out. I have enjoyed a number of the Brain Games series, and this is one of the best." —Ginger Russell

BuzzFeed writer Abby Kass has been using hers non-stop, especially since transitioning to working from home:
"I got the SodaStream Fizzi last fall and started using it immediately. I like this version because it's manual, which means it doesn't require electricity, so it doesn't have to be plugged into the wall. It comes with the water maker, a 60-liter CO2 Cylinder, and a 1L slim carbonating bottle. Instead of having to buy cans or bottles of seltzer all the time, I can make it in seconds in my apartment and never run out. I also love how much better for the environment it is — I've reduced my plastic and aluminum consumption by a lot."
You can read her full review on the SodaStream here.
Get it from Target for $69.99 (available in four colors).
Promising review: "This thing is the bomb. Does exactly what it advertises; makes a thick whipped cream/foam out of washes, making it economical as well as fun. It can soften harsh washes to make the concoction gentler on skin. It's also great for mixing washes if you have two or more you'd like to combine for different effects. And of course, a little goes a long, long way with this puppy. For the price, it's a steal. Definitely give it a try if you're not sure. It's a really cool device." —Knock Knock Me

Puzzles are my mom's go-to when she's feeling anxious. They encourage her to use her brain and focus on something other than her worries. You might want to add a puzzle roller into your cart as well so you won't find yourself stressing out over "where should I put this half-finished puzzle?"
Promising review: "This was my first time buying this brand, and as an avid puzzler, I know there is definitely nothing worse than a brand who doesn’t put care into the quality of their puzzles, and Betterco absolutely does! The puzzle was beautiful, and the quality of the pieces were great. Sturdy, fit snug together, and no bending or peeling. Highly recommend." —Ashley Masterson

Not only will it hold our headphones it will also hold an Xbox One controller which is even more perfect. It's very sturdy and feels very well made its grip is strong and can accommodate multiple different tables. The bottom hook also turns around so you can hide it under the tables when it's not in use! This also held my purse which is probably around 10 lbs .. I'll probably end up ordering more in the near future for gifts and myself!! Highly recommend." —Amber

Promising review: "I originally bought the 7-inch moon for my husband as a gift of 'I love you to the moon and back' for our anniversary... Well, I loved his moon so much that I kept stealing it from our bedroom and taking it to the living room. So I bought myself the 5.9 inch moon to compare sizes and have one to call my own. As it turns out, the slightly smaller 5.9 inch one is just as amazing as the seven-inch. These moons charge up fast with a cord (with a cool 'blue moon' color when charging) and then once charged, they are completely free from cords or any connection dependence. They light up with a very detailed real moon surface design in white or yellow, and it will totally mesmerize you. You can literally 'hold the whole moon in your hand' and use it as a cordless and battery-free lamp, a nightlight, a lantern or quasi-candle in the dark. The wood stand is sleek and super easy to assemble, and is a perfect accent to any room décor. These moons are the best gift for friends, family, co-workers, kids, pets and spouses. My #1 purchase pick for 2020!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "This is super cute! It was easy to use. Just pop it open, place your loose leaf tea, close it and hang it in your mug. Depending on the size and texture of your tea, there might be some in the bottom of your mug. This doesn’t really bother me. I got it for myself, but it would make a cute gift or prize." —Beth Hogan
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
Promising review: "I lose everything! This is the best invention ever. Anytime I can’t find my keys I just open the app and in seconds I can find my keys. The best part is a few weeks ago my keys actually fell off the little ring while I was at the mall. When I got to my car I realized my keys were gone. I was so worried but I figured let’s see what happens. I opened my app and hoped for the best. Luckily it was in range and when I clicked the button I heard the beeping. I jumped in my car and started following the noise till it got louder. I was able to find my keys hidden in the grass. They must have fallen off while I was walking back to my car. So, yeah, I would definitely recommend." —MBMZ
Get it from Amazon for $34.98.
Promising review: "I’m 17 and I loved this. In the intro it says the page instructions are all up to interpretation, so if it says 'spill your drink' or something you can take that literally or choose to paint on it with something such as tea or coffee that’ll look like brown watercolor. Which I love that it’s bizarre prompts but that you have wiggle room if you don’t want to do anything too crazy. I would recommend this if you’re just looking for something fun or if you’re going through some challenges this is really helpful to distract/express/push yourself!" —Marlee

Something about this bottle just says "Valentine's Day" to me, perhaps the subtle pink color of the bourbon paired with the chic gold label.

Promising review: "I very much love this product. It makes my partner and I feel so much closer every time we tap since we live in different states. It really does help a lot with that distance. I usually tap the bond whenever I'm anxious or something during work and knowing my partner feels it and would tap back is very reassuring to know that they're there even when far away or just random taps to know that he's thinking of me. The only con that I have with this is that the bonds sometimes have a delayed timing but it's easily resolved with restarting the app and your phone." —Nightshade
Get a set of two from UncommonGoods for $98.
I'm a recent PopSocket convert and honestly I'm not sure why I waited so long to add one to my phone! It's ridiculously easy to stick on, it's fun to fidget with, and it works great as a stand for when I'm FaceTiming my parents. If I had one of these while I was a student it definitely would've helped me text more discreetly during class (DON'T DO THAT, KIDS!).
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in nine styles).
You can pair the set with these ice-themed dice to take it to the next level.
Promising review: "Honestly, this kit is what the original starter kit should have been. The story is easier to follow for a newer DM. The adventure is a lot more streamlined. The breakdown of character creation is amazing and simplified. It doesn't just toss you some generic character that you have no connection to. It simplifies character creation and allows you to ease into more complicated characters later on. The cards that come with this kit are something I wish I had when I first started. They help with initiative, conditions, and the sidekick cards and magic item cards are awesome. I would recommend this kit over the original to any person wanting to start playing DnD." —Bryan

I was gifted a year of Book of the Month for my birthday one year and to date it is one of the best things I've received. There are few things as satisfying as getting truly lost in the pages of a good book — and it'll provide for a great distraction for the mind if your love has recently been feeling stressed from, well, our entire society right now. Each month they'll be permitted to choose one of four books, all of which are different genres. Then the book they select will be delivered to their door. Magic!

Promising review: "I love these because great skin isn't limited to just your face and neither should the products that facilitate it! These definitely infuse the area with essence like a facial sheet and offer a moisturizing, gently tightening effect so you know they're working! I have tried other products designed for the same area and these were by far the best and least messy." —fountainsoda

....in an endearing way, obviously. Whether they lose power or simply enter such a cozy state they can't bear the thought of getting out of bed to charge their phone, this product is essential for keeping their battery charged.
Promising review: "This bad boy holds a lot of power for charging iPhones multiple times (like on a long journey away from power). Plus it holds a charge pretty well.

I charged mine and let it sit for a month without using it. It still showed four of four dots and recharged to the top fairly quickly (sorry, I didn’t time it)." —Steve B
