1. An enamel pin that finally celebrates the one task you're exceptionally good at, but are too nervous to put under "Skills" on your resume. Don't be shy. Write it down.
Badge Bomb is a small business that teams up with independent artists to create original artwork for pins, patches, magnets, and stickers!
"I am currently working through the slow and steady process of curating just the right collection of enamel pins and patches for my denim jacket. I instantly knew this pin would be a perfect addition. But not only is it obviously ~adorable~ but it's super high-quality. I did a fair bit of traveling with this jacket shortly after pinning my new pin, and I was pleased it stayed perfectly attached with a lot of less-than-precious handling. 14/10, a very good (dog) pin." —Danielle Healy
Get it from Badge Bomb for $10.
2. An electric toothbrush that'll make brushing your teeth your new favorite care task to do *and* make your smile sparkly white. Alexa, play "My Shiny Teeth And Me" from The Fairly OddParents, thanks.
The brush has four modes, shuts off at two minutes, and vibrates every 30 seconds to let you know you should move to another quadrant of your mouth.
"How have I gone my entire life without this? Really. I can't believe I've been relying on my own poorly choreographed circular and angular strokes. All of that is to say, I love this toothbrush. It uses advanced sonic technology offering four cleaning modes to choose from; personally, I like the gentleness of the gum care mode. My favorite thing about it, though, is that it operates in four 30-second intervals. At the end of each interval, it buzzes to inform you that it's time to move to another part of your mouth. Because who's really making sure they brush their teeth for exactly two minutes? And when you're done, you just place it back in its charging pod until the next time you need it. I can tell I'm getting such a deeper clean than I used to get with manual toothbrushes, and I can never go back. Plaque has met its match with Dr. Brite." —Taylor Steele
Get it from Dr. Brite for $150 (originally $250).
3. A Breville three-in-one microwave oven to save you counter space by acting as not one, not two, but *three* appliances.
This bad boy combines the functions of an air fryer, convection oven, *and* microwave, all into one nifty appliance. It has 19 built-in smart preset cooking functions and uses smart algorithms to steer power to where and when it’s needed to create the ideal cooking environment. Time to air-fry up some fries!
"I wanted this appliance because I have next to no counter space. Yet, dedicating space to a microwave seemed like a waste of money. The fact that this machine serves three purposes makes it totally worthwhile. Plus, it looks very futuristic while being easy to use. Lord knows I hate a complicated microwave. The displays make it easy to find the appropriate power level necessary to reheat, defrost, or cook food. The door closes so softly too. Knowing that I can bake cookies, make french fries, and pop popcorn with the same machine is truly unbelievable. The price is steep, but not compared to the price of three separate machines. If you have money to play with, I'd definitely splurge on this. It's truly an ingenious appliance." —Christine Forbes
Get it from Bed Bath & Beyond for $449.99.
4. A toilet-cleaning stamp so you can keep your toilet bowl clean, washing it every single time you flush. It's as easy as "Stamp 'n' Poo," which is what this product should have been called, let's be real.
"I have this product and it really does work! It took me a minute to figure out how to apply it, but after reading the enclosed directions it was a cinch! You quite literally stamp it into the inside of the toilet bowl and leave it be. It smells super refreshing for a long time — as if you've cleaned your toilet every time you flush." —Heather Braga
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $23.82.
5. Vegan food wraps to keep your fruits, vegetables, and even leftovers stored naturally and sustainably. The best part? It's reusable, washable, *and* biodegradable!
These vegan wraps are made with cotton cloth, candelilla wax, non-GMO soy wax, organic coconut oil, and tree resin.
"I got this set of wraps in my attempt to not use roll after roll after roll of aluminum foil every five minutes. And guess what — they're great! They're vegan soy wax (also available in beeswax) and super cute. You get three different sizes, which are varied enough to fit just about any random leftover bowl I need to stick in the fridge that day. Just press the wrap down around the edge of your chosen container, and the heat from your hands seals it with ease. Voilà!" —Maitland Quitmeyer
Get a set of three from Wild Minimalist for $21.99.
6. A stylish romper for when you don't know what to wear, but can always rock a basic piece. Just add killer shoes, rockin' accessories, and a really nice jacket.
Smash + Tess is a small business based out of Vancouver, Canada, founded by a mother-daughter-bestie trio with a mission to create a slower, better, *and* comfier fashion brand using sustainable materials and local ethical production.
"This thing is mad comfy. It's like butter, even after several washes. I've worn the absolute crap out of it over the last several months and it has some minor pilling, but otherwise is still in perfect condition — not a fraying thread in sight. It's a great investment, as it'll still fit even through major size fluctuations and it's really easy to style. I'm 5'9" and the legs pulled down all the way are just slightly cropped, but this jumpsuit allows for cuffing or even pulling pantlegs up for more of a capri look. I absolutely cannot recommend these rompers enough, especially if you're in the market for loungewear that still makes you feel cute!" —Danielle Healy
Get it from Smash + Tess for $119 (available in sizes 2XS–3XL).
7. A Dyson hair straightener that is cord-free, making it so easy to straighten your hair without dealing with the mess of a cable every time you move the iron around your head.
"I'm gonna keep it a stack: I don't really wear my hair straight. Quite frankly, it's not my vibe *and* flat irons typically cause irreversible damage to my hair. It never quite curls up the same. However, this flat iron claimed to straighten hair with 50% less damage due to its flexible plates. Plus it's cordless and has internal sensors that regulate the temperature 100 times per second. At $500, I figured the Corrale had something to prove. So, I let Jon Reyman (aka the best haircutter in the game, seriously) press my hair with the flat iron. For the first time, my hair didn't feel flat, limp, and lifeless after being pressed out. I didn't even get that familiar burning smell. My fine, 4c/4b hair never gets straightened so it's not 'heat trained,' so to speak. Yet, the Corrale kept my coils pretty straight for two weeks. Sure, there were a few looser curls here and there once I washed my hair, but nothing crazy. To get those kinds of long-lasting results, I generally have to fry my hair at close to 450 degrees. So achieving a better look without going above 410 degrees was unbelievable. Moving forward, I'm not letting any stylist use another flat iron on me. I will simply bring the Corrale to the salon. Why? Because the cost of this flat iron pales in comparison to what I would pay to [unsuccessfully] rehab my hair after catastrophically damaging it." —Christine Forbes
Get it from Sephora for $499.
8. A water flosser that'll make your dentist proud at your next teeth cleaning. It will precisely dislodge food and bacteria stuck in your gums, leaving your mouth squeaky clean every night.
"After recently experiencing my first cavities as an adult, I decided maybe it was time to get serious about that whole flossing thing. A few personal barriers to that goal included the fact that I hate flossing, it takes forever if you're doing it well, and regular floss is single-use and potentially very wasteful. The answer? This water flosser. It's certainly an up-front investment, but after several months of regular use, it seems like it's built to last a long long long time (it looks no worse for wear after me dropping it several times). One charge lasts SO unbelievably long, and since I live in NYC and have approximately zero counter space, the fact that it's so compact is a big plus. You have to refill the water reservoir once or twice per floss sesh, but it's really easy and you don't have to shut the unit off and on every time. My teeth feel super clean after using it and it's really helped me build a better oral-hygiene routine that I don't dread doing before bed." —Danielle Healy
Get it from Burst Oral Care for $69.99 (available in three colors).
9. A hair-curling tie that'll give you some salon-approved curls without having to use heat and damage your hair in any way. Simply wrap your hair in it and watch the curls fall when you take it off!
SoCal Curls is a small business based out of Thousand Oaks, California.
"I love this thing! Whenever it's extra humid out or my hair is feeling drier than usual, I like to use it to give my hair shape and cut down on frizz. It's really easy to use and I get consistently wonderful results. Despite the microwaved band being warm at best, it gives me nice curls that stay in shape all day." —Bek O'Connell
Promising review: "This was SO wonderful. I was excited but skeptical when I ordered this product. Curls do not stay in my hair, and it is so difficult to make it look nice. The first time I tried to use my curling tie, I only left it in for about 20 minutes, and it didn't work well. The next time, I tied it tighter (important if you have 'slippery' hair), and left it in for over an hour. My curls are gorgeous and perfect — thank you so much for this product! I am a happy customer!" —Megan Combe
Get it from SoCal Curls for $18.99.
10. A mesh body exfoliator because your skin deserves more than that stinky old loofah you've been using since, like, 2013.
Luv Scrub is a Black woman–owned business, and its mesh cloth design is inspired by a traditional West African morning routine.
"I have keratosis pilaris, which is a fancy-schmancy way of saying I have to work a lil' harder to exfoliate my body. This baby makes the skin all over my body feel literally softer and smoother than it's EVER felt. Scrubbing with it also feels super soothing — like I'm using a body scrub minus the gritty mess leftover to rinse from the shower afterward. I also dig how fast it dries so I'm not putting a bacteria magnet on my skin each time I use it. Def get this if you wanna invest more into your body care/self-care routine. 30 outta 10, mos def recommend." —Marquaysa Battle
Get from beauty supply shop Beauty Beez (also Black-owned) for $18 or directly from Luv Scrub for $18.
11. A chic area rug to immediately elevate the look of your space without having to do any DIY work or strenuous decorating. It's truly amazing how much a rug can improve a space.
"I've been testing this rug out in my living room for a few months now and despite how picky I am about pile length, ease of cleaning, and general look, I give it high marks! I have two cats who are super shedders and a BF who eats at the coffee table and drops every other bite, so I was worried about it getting stained/ruined almost immediately. Luckily, no such thing has happened thus far! We've had run-ins with ketchup and cat puke, but both came out with a basic carpet cleaner — no problem at all. I vacuum it regularly, which keeps it looking fresh and it doesn't shed, either. All in all, I *love* this rug and would absolutely buy another!" —Chelsea Stuart
Get it from Boutique Rugs for $34.12+ (available in 10 sizes and as a rectangle, runner, or square).
12. A cozy pet bed your cat (or dog!) will basically never want to leave. No, really. This is their new residence. Everywhere else in the house is moot.
"As you can see, my cat, Norman, absolutely loves this bed. He lays in it every single day, for hours. The bottom has extra fabric which promotes burrowing and is honestly the coziest looking bed I have ever seen." —Stephanie Hope
Promising review: "This bed is absolutely amazing. Since it arrived my dog has spent more time in her bed than she ever has before. Typically every morning my dog Zoey will come and lay next to me on the couch while I work. Well, ever since this bed arrived, she wakes up, goes to the bathroom, then right back to bed. She will stay in bed all day and finally join me in the afternoon at like 3 p.m.
I’m not sure if it’s the memory foam or the super-soft snuggle blanket, but this bed is by far the best we have ever had! Zoey and I thank you for such an incredible product." —Alison Aschenbrenner
Get it from Amazon for $59.95+ (available in two sizes).
13. Or an anti-anxiety pet bed for when your little fur baby just needs some extra cuddling to feel safe and sound in their surroundings. This is perfect for new pets, puppies, or just a nervous Nelly.
"I recently got a new puppy (and my parents got his brother), and when searching for pet beds I wanted to find something that I'd probably want to lay on if I were a dog (LOL). I came across this fluffy 'anti-anxiety' bed and I was intrigued. I immediately added it to cart and it has been the greatest purchase I have made for Franklin (my pup).
He falls right to sleep in it and he and his brother love cuddling in it. It's also been a lifesaver when it comes to car rides. I just pop it in the passenger seat or even in the back seat, and he stays put through the whole ride. If you have a smaller dog and need a dog bed, I can firmly vouch that this one is a keeper." —Ali Faccenda
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in three sizes and three colors).
14. A self-cleaning water bottle because, I'm sorry, but aren't bottles the actual worst thing to clean. Something about cleaning them is so daunting, and this self-cleaning one just...gets me.
With a simple press of a button, it self cleans by activating every two hours to keep your bottle fresh and stink-free. Huzzah!
"I own it and can say it's super convenient to use and easy to charge. It's basically a water bottle with its own filter. I love that I can carry it with me on the go like a regular water bottle and then when I need to refill when I'm out and away from my filtered water at home, I can drink freely without feeling all icky about it. It's definitely a handy investment for anyone who likes to keep water on the go — especially if you're into nature walks, hiking, or camping." —Marquaysa Battle
Get it from Amazon for $95+ (available in two sizes and five colors).
15. Birkenstock sandals so you can feel like one of those cool kids who walk around wearing Birkenstocks and you always think "ugh, whatever." but deep down, you want it to be you. Shh, let it happen.
Psst, they're vegan!
"I practically lived in these during my five-day trip to the US Virgin Islands. Wore them during beach days, for hikes, as indoor sandals in the hotel, as bathroom shoes for the shower — you get it. Pretty much for everything. Why? Because not only did they hold up, but they're also so light on your feet you forget you're wearing anything at all. And because they're waterproof, you can get them wet and soaking without so much as a scratch. They're incredibly comfortable, actually support your feet, and look stylish to boot. I could sing their praises for hours!" —Nusrat Sultana
Get it from Free People for $45 (available in women's sizes 5–10.5 and nine colors).
16. An acne-clarifying cleanser that is so gentle yet *oh-so-effective* at removing impurities and oil, leaving your skin visibly clear, smooth, and calm. The 2% salicylic acid formula helps to clear and prevent breakouts while the hyaluronic acid hydrates skin and reduces signs of inflammation.
Peach & Lily was founded by Alicia Yoon and is Asian woman–owned.
"I seriously stan K-beauty brand Peach & Lily's products (I use their gel moisturizer every day) and have been using this clarifying cleanser for a few weeks now. I have pretty sensitive skin so switching products is often a gamble but this hasn't done me wrong! It's fragrance-free and very gentle and I love how it suds up when applied. I find it comparable to First Aid Beauty's cleanser (my usual go-to; check it out here) — not in consistency/look, but in how fresh and clean my face feels after. Plus, it's like less than half the price!" —Chelsea Stuart
Get it from Peach & Lily for $10.99.
17. Glossier's Boy Brow for when you want a fuller brow, but don't really jive with the full-on filled-in brow look. This works as both a pomade and a filler, keeping your hairs in place and helping any thin spots look a bit more full.
Bow Brow is cruelty-free!
"I truly did not think it was possible for Boy Brow to be as great as the whole world claimed. But *sigh* everyone was correct! In an instant it makes my frazzled brows look defined-yet-natural. Many days it's the only bit of makeup I put on, and I think I'm gonna keep it that way for a while. It stays on all day, even when I'm super sweaty, and is easy to take off at night. I'll be a lifelong purchaser for sure (until it's trendy to have pencil-thin brows again, though I pray that day never comes)." —Rachel Dunkel
Get it from Glossier for $16.
18. A leave-in conditioner that'll detangle and rehydrate hair, promote elasticity and flexibility, increase the shine, *and* reduce breakage and hair fall. Whew, that's a lot!
It's vegan, nontoxic, unisex, and naturally derived!
Melanin Haircare is a Black woman–owned business that makes conditioner, shampoo, oil, and other accessories for afro-textured hair.
"Trust me, I've bought five — and it's not because the bottle was embarrassingly small. You actually get quite a bit of product. This conditioner has changed my hair. It's longer, stronger, and more manageable." —Christine Forbes
Promising review: "I was extremely skeptical about this product after seeing reviews that it was very lightweight/thin. I am a thick, heavy cream girl. I like my hair to remain moisturized for one to two weeks after wash day. I also don't care for products that claim to do 10 different things amazingly. Anyway, I tried it with the complete set the way it was recommended. I decided to restyle an old twist out using this product to detangle as a leave-in. It was WONDERFUL. This product has so much slip. I usually detangle when I apply my deep conditioner since it has slip. This is also because I usually don't like the ingredients or effectiveness of detanglers on the market. This one is amazing. It was sooo easy to work through my strands and it defined my curls. I could tell it was moisturizing my strands, but doubted it would last. I used this with the Twist Elongating Cream and the Multi-Use Pure Oil Blend. My hair was so soft and moisturized but LIGHT. I was really confused, since I'm not used to experiencing that. For me, lightweight products/hair = dry hair. I couldn't keep my hands out of it though. I used more of the leave-in than the cream and oil blend, so I decided I had to buy more of the leave-in — as a detangler if nothing else, but to keep exploring. The moisture did not hold for a full two weeks, but it definitely held for a week. I should also add that I am heavy-handed with products, but a little went such a long way with this line." —Ulta customer
Get it from Ulta for $18.99.
19. A book-lover's perfect mug to display your love for books *and* caffeine with every sip and trope.
Ideal Bookshelf is a woman-owned small business based in Maui, Hawaii.
"When my two loves (books and coffee, of course) meet, it's always a beautifully magical thing. I love that I have so many of the books featured on this mug. Humblebrag, I know. And as a Black woman writer myself, it's inspiring to be able to hold so many Black women authors in my hands at the same time! Plus, the colors are super vibrant, making the covers look super realistic. And they are. Because the book covers displayed are exact replicas of the *actual* books themselves! Burnt coffee never tasted better. Yes, I burn my coffee sometimes." —Taylor Steele
Get it from Ideal Bookshelf for $18.
20. A Downy wrinkle-release fabric spray for when taking out the ironing board and iron is just waaay too much work in the morning.
"I hate wrinkles *and* am lazy — two at-odds conditions. This stuff has been a staple in my life since approximately ninth grade (thanks to my mama). As a former Catholic school uniform wearer, this stuff was VITAL to freshening up wrinkly dress shirts that spent the after-school hours stuffed in a gym bag. The scent is light and fresh and its wrinkle-releasing powers are nearly instant. It definitely works better on some fabrics than others (great on cotton, less great on some synthetics), but it'll improve the look of most without dealing with an iron or steamer." —Danielle Healy
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $13.94.
21. Micro-fleece slippers so you can lounge around the house, just oozing style and grace.
FYI, this is included in Prime Wardrobe so you can give it a trial run if you're a member!
"I have these (and the version without the collapsible heel) and am OBSESSED. Growing up in Florida I never wanted to wear slippers; it was just too hot all the time. But then I moved to New York City and had to deal with brutal winters and the lack of radiant floor heating in my prewar apartments. Fuzzy socks are great, but sometimes I want some support, especially after a long day on my feet or if I need to leave my apartment for a second and don't want to meet my neighbors while wearing my penguin-print fuzzy socks. These slippers are stupidly soft; it boggles my mind how something can be so comfortable. And the collapsible heel is great for preventing my toes from overheating (which they have a tendency to do in fuzzy socks). I've had the regular version for almost 2.5 years and they're still going strong, so I expect to enjoy these new ones for as long (and probably even longer)." —Melanie Aman
Get it from Amazon for $43.20+ (available in women's sizes 5–10.5 and two colors).
22. An open T-shirt turban for showing off your beautiful top-knot looks but with ~satin protection~.
You Go Natural is a Black woman–owned small business based in Dallas.
"I have fine 4b/4c hair that I don't always have the time to style. I like YGN head wraps because they're so easy to tie! My hair dries out super easily, so I appreciate that these are satin lined (for moisture retention). I would 100% recommend these to anyone who is transitioning or worries about breakage." —Christine Forbes
Get it from You Go Natural for $35 (available in 12 colors).
23. An all-natural cleaner to rid your home of unsightly messes and stains while making everything smell so fresh and so clean, clean.
The Hoot is a Black woman–owned small business.
"You know that refreshing feeling you get after a deep clean at the dentist? That's how I feel about my home after using this spray. The peppermint smell is so invigorating and makes everything smell fresh. It cuts through grime and dust with no problem, and I think might actually scare off mice (rodents hate minty smells). The sprayer works well, and the bottle is even made from recycled plastic. This 'eco-friendly' brand was started by Tonya Newsome, a professional cleaner, who noticed traditional cleaning solutions made with harsh ingredients were causing skin irritation and respiratory issues. Newsome decided to make a cleaner that's just as effective but without SLES and SLS (both known to cause irritation and allergic reactions for people with sensitive skin). I have to say, it's really nice to use a cleaner that works but doesn't give off unpleasant fumes or put my dog at risk. If you're looking for a multipurpose spray that smells like a nice piece of gum instead of the bottom of a swimming pool, try it out!" —Bek O'Connell
Get it from The Hoot for $7.49 (available as a foam or a regular sprayer).
24. A two-piece dress so pretty, it'll quickly become your go-to outfit whenever anyone invites you basically anywhere. Brunch? Definitely! Date night? Duh! Grocery shopping? Obviously.
"I love a matching set because it takes most of the work out of putting an outfit together. And this one is such a great deal! I love how comfy and easy it is to wear. I was concerned about it being see-through, but it wasn't! It has a stretchy waist and a cute tie detail in the front of the skirt. For spring days, I just throw a denim jacket over it. And, of course, I plan to wear it all summer as well. I would 100% buy more colors in this — and there are so many to choose from!" —Kayla Boyd
Get it from Amazon for $18+ (available in sizes X–5X and 36 colors/patterns).
25. A color-changing blush (yes, you read that right) that reacts to your skin’s natural pH to give you an adorably flushed look. Like you were running late to dinner, and now have a luscious glow about you. It works on all skin types and skin tones.
Youthforia is a woman-owned small biz that aims to make makeup that's so good for your skin you can sleep in it. The founder, Fiona Co Chan, even tested the blush by sleeping in it for two months! They are passionate about being environmentally friendly and not using fossil fuels or gross toxins in their products.
"When I wore this, it gave me the prettiest natural-looking flush, and it actually lasted me the whole day, which is a miracle for my combo-oily skin. It really looks like it's part of your skin rather than sitting on top, and I love that it's good for your skin, too! Plus, if two people with the same skin tone apply the blush, they'll both get a slightly different color! How cool is that? This contains 20 plant-based, antioxidant-rich oils that help nourish skin." —Nusrat Sultana
Get it from Youthforia for $36.
26. A pair of hoop earrings that are giving off some "I'm chic and I know it" vibes, and honestly, I'm living for this type of energy.
Ten Wilde is a Black woman–owned business based in LA.
"I have a ~thing~ for simple gold jewelry — especially versatile pieces I don't have to fuss with. I throw these babies on whenever I want to look like I put in a little more effort than usual and they totally do the trick! My favorite part is how lightweight they are — they don't tug at my ears or feel heavy after hours of wear." —Chelsea Stuart
Get it from Ten Wilde for $30.
27. A stunning perfume so you can *finally* have a signature perfume. It has notes of agarwood, elemi, osmanthus, white pepper, and apricot. This gives it a warm, sweet tea–like feel, making this fragrance so unique and irresistible.
Lavender Clouds and Poetry is a Black woman–owned business.
"I could not be more impressed with this perfume from Lavender Clouds and Poetry, a Black woman–owned small business whose fragrance quality and ~aesthetic~ are top-notch. I've been lucky enough to try a few scents, but Dripping Nectar is my current favorite. It's fresh with a hint of sweetness — perfect for spring and summer. I've had a problem lately with perfume giving me a headache, but not this perfume! The packaging is beautiful and the bottle feels luxury-quality. What are we waiting for, let's make Lavender Clouds and Poetry a household name!" —Rachel Dunkel
Get it from Lavender Clouds and Poetry for $29+ (available as a rollerball or full size).
28. A mesh bralette for when you love the freedom of a simple bralette, but also the structure and support you get from wired bras.
"I recently got this bralette and can confirm that it really is comfortable. After over a year of quarantine, I realized that I pretty much never want to wear an underwire bra again. But I still do enjoy the support they give, so this bra is a great compromise. It looks and feels like a bralette, but it has padding in it, which also makes it seem more like a wired bra. I've worn it all day long and found it very comfortable." —Abby Kass
Promising review: "I bought this in the almond color and originally wasn’t very impressed by the overall fit/design. I contemplated returning it, but it was just so comfortable that I decided to keep it. I’m glad I did. After wearing it several times I really do love it. Since I’ve now decided to live in it, I went ahead and bought it in two other colors/designs that will hopefully be more visually appealing." —Lindsey
Get it from Lively for $35 (available in sizes XS–L and three colors).
29. Linen sheets to keep you cool as a key lime pie in the summer and warm as a cinnamon roll in the winter months. Now I want dessert.
Includes two pillowcases, the fitted sheet, flat sheet, and the storage sack.
"Sheets are so difficult to buy — they're an investment, and what we're each looking for feel-wise is super different, especially when it comes to linen. But I'm here to tell you that these are a fantastic buy, and one that you'll be stoked on when it comes to both look and feel. To start off, Bed Threads' color selection is hands-down the best in the game. I feel 100% confident that you can find *just* the look you're going for, and each rich color will only look better when its depth is in front of you IRL in chicly rumpled sheet form. But most importantly, the feel of these sheets is fantastic. They definitely have that slightly grippy linen feel, which I like in small doses — that feel is getting more and more tuned in with each wash as they soften a bit.
The two tropes about linen sheets you hear again and again are: 1) they're cool in the summer and warm in the winter, and 2) they get softer with each wash. And sorry, but it's really true! If you've been thinking about investing in a set of linen sheets, these are a great selection, as they're pretty much the Platonic ideal. Soft but not *so* soft they don't feel like linen. Breezy yet snuggle-able in the heat. And they just look so damn good. Totally recommend." —Rachel Dunkel
Get it from Bed Threads for $220+ (available in sizes Twin–Cali King and 23 colors).
30. A unitard that not only works as a great staple in your wardrobe, but is recycled *and* recyclable (you can recycle it with ReGirlfriend!). In fact, one unitard saves 26 water bottles from the landfill, prevents 20.54 lbs of CO2, and saves 5.26 KWH of energy!
"Granted I'm the type of person who would salivate over owning a bike jumpsuit, but after having it for almost a year, I feel confident that this is a piece that could be beloved for almost anyone. It's made of Girlfriend Collective's signature compressive fabric, which hugs your body but doesn't feel suffocating or restrictive. But the most shocking feature is that it has a built-in bra that...actually works?! I'm a 34DD and this jumpsuit absolutely passes the 'bounce test,' and keeps my boobs in place really well when jumping and running. (It's not quite as supportive as my favorite Girlfriend Collective sports bra, the Dylan, but that thing goes above and beyond in terms of keeping you in place.) If you're tired of leggings and are looking for something new and fun to add to your collection of activewear that you can *actually* use, I highly recommend this!" —Rachel Dunkel
Get it from Girlfriend Collective for $78 (available in sizes 2XS–6XL and 11 colors).
31. And finally, a baking tool set from Food52 because you watched The Great British Bake Off once (or 72 times) and want to finally take up the hobby in your own kitchen. I'll be your Mary.
The set comes with a bench scraper, two offset spatulas, and a pastry brush.
"I've never been anything less than floored by products from Food52's brand Five Two (lookin' at you, silicone lid set), and this baking set is no exception. I've been a hobbyist baker for a while, so this isn't my first rodeo when it comes to testing baking tools, but these are each the Cadillac of their own tool category, and all for a wildly good price, if you ask me.
All of the tools feature silicone handles, so your hands won't slip and slide around even if they're covered in egg wash or butter (mmmmm butter). The offset spatulas are the perfect sizes for tasks large and small, and the ruler on the bench scraper is *chef's kiss* perfection. I reach for the brush, yes, for baking, but also any other kitchen tasks that require one. I've literally used this brush on chicken on the grill and it has survived.
These tools are workhorses. Some of the sturdiest I've ever used. Food52 easily could have made these ugly as sin and still had the best products on the market. But they made them absolutely gorgeous to boot! Even after relatively heavy use, the blue silicone looks clean and the gold accents look bright and shiny as ever. And that's after many a run through the dishwasher, because OH YEAH, they're dishwasher safe, too. Food52 you've done it again!" —Rachel Dunkel
