Promising review: "These clips are amazing!! They hold up my long hair perfectly; I don't need to readjust the clip in my hair for basically the entire day, which I thought I would need to do since the clip is a bit smaller than my other claw clips. The clips are adorable though and I love how they came in this muted color palette! (The green, purple and yellow clips are definitely my favorite)." —sarah

Promising review: "I’ve slept on this pillow for around 18 months now and I have to say that this pillow is fantastic. I think $70-plus is definitely a lot of money for a pillow, but the sleep quality I gained has been phenomenal. I’ve given these as gifts to people that I care a lot about and every time I get a courteous response first (let’s face it, a pillow’s a pretty boring gift) and then I hear from them again in a few days when they actually use it and they’re ecstatic, not many more universally appreciated gifts you can give people than better sleep. Full marks, and I fully expect being able to get many more years out of mine." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I bought this as a gift for both my mother and step mother on Mother's Day. They both love it. My mom has arthritis pretty bad in her hands but loves wine. This product saves her hands from having to grip and twist the cork bottle opener. You can have a bottle of wine opened in four seconds with this product. The foil remover is super spiffy too because no more sliding a knife carefully around the edge! Just place over the foil, grip together and twist in one motion. This is a great product and as soon as I'm not broke anymore I'm getting myself one." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I struggle with my little fly away, baby hairs. I have super straight thick hair but when I put my hair in a ponytail or bun, my hair sticks out in all directions. Hairspray never works for me and I saw this product on TikTok. Absolutely LOVE and I’m never leaving the house without it again. It’s like a giant chapstick for your hair that doesn’t feel gross and keeps my hairs down! 10/10!!!!!!" —Emily

Promising review: "Got this as a stocking stuffer gift, mostly expecting to get a laugh (it did!). It's actually super useful, easy to clean, and feels much more sanitary than leaving damp sponges to sit on the counter. We use Scotch Brite sponges which *mostly* fit, but hang over the edge of the bed by a millimeter or so. I'm sure we could find smaller sponges that fit perfectly, but honestly it's not that big of a deal — we still get the 'bed' look. The holder itself has a removable grid that lifts the sponge while it rests, which makes it super easy to clean and also prevents the sponge from just sitting in moisture every day. I love this holder and I think it's so much more fun than a regular sponge holder — it definitely gets a chuckle out of our guests!" —M M

Promising review: "I am far from tech savvy — the auto setup didn't work so I followed the incredibly simple instructions on my phone app. We were up and working in less than a minute. I tried it with some of the free games on Luna — I wanted to make sure it's ready to go as it's a gift for my kiddo. I am excited to sign up for the free trial for Luna and try the other games. I also love how this controller feels in your hands. It even came with batteries!! I will, of course, get some rechargeable batteries. I only used it once so I can't speak to all the functions of the controller." —Lexicondevil213
Price: $69.99+ (available with or without a free month of Luna+ subscription, and with a phone clip)
Promising review: "Love this stuff! This is my third or fourth order of this sunblock and I've given a couple as gifts. It goes on smooth and light without clogging my pores. I don't have to worry about getting new pimples with this product. Great sun protection too as I have very light skin and I worry about sun exposure on a daily basis. I put this on every time I go out, even if it's just for 10 minutes outside. Haven't had a sunburn in over two years now." —Katie

Promising review: "I’m so happy with this lamp! No complaints. It’s chic, beautiful, and goes so well with my room. It makes a statement without being overbearing. I get compliments on it ALL the time; after ordering it, all my girlfriends ordered the same one! It works great as a gift for someone as well. Get this lamp — you won’t regret it!" —Julia in Los Angeles

Promising review: "This is a beautiful novelty item, great for decoration or gifting. The shell is a beautifully sculpted ceramic, a decent weight, not flimsy, well made, in a lovely pale/medium pink with an iridescent finish that makes it shine in the light. The pearl is pale white and is also ceramic. The pearl runs tiny button-type batteries, but are relatively easy to replace. This item could not possibly be used as a night-light, as has been advertised, as it is bright only when you first turn it on, and only for about 15 minutes. After that, it begins to grow dim, until it goes nearly dark after about half an hour. The batteries also need to be replaced frequently. Despite these drawbacks, it is a really beautiful sculpture and will add an exotic accent anywhere. It looks gorgeous just as a sculpture, even without the light, but the light does add a lovely touch. Since it comes from China, shipping may be delayed or uncertain, as it was for me, but I eventually got it safe and sound and I am very satisfied with it." —Michele Lyons

Promising review: "I honestly was skeptical about buying, but I am so glad I did. This material is so soft yet stretchy and fits great! I loooove this with the high-waisted jeans I paired it with too. Bought for going out; going to buy in more colors!!" —Alicia
Price: $19.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and in 24 colors and cuts)
Promising review: "We bought one for the man cave. My husband uses it with his Echo Studio for better sound. He loves having a clock, day and date, and weather easily accessible. We liked it so much we bought another one for the master bedroom. I added pictures for scrolling on the screen. It not only serves as a clock but also as a decorative item with the family pictures scrolling on it. Great sizes and colors to select from. We probably will give a few of these for Christmas gifts." —Becky L. Pearce

Promising review: "This cup is fantastic for my toddler. I love that the straw is built in. It’s super easy to clean. The material is great, easy to hold, and my toddler is able to grip onto it well. We have had a couple drops and the liquid did not spill. I also love the neutral colors. I will be buying more products!" —Jordana

Promising review: "This blanket is extremely fluffy and soft, it knocks me right out, never slept better. This would make a great gift to anyone having trouble sleeping or even just in general." —Quitiper

Promising review: "I bought these shelves to store my supplements and free up some counter space. They arrived quickly and to my surprise they are much thicker and sturdier than I expected for the price. My husband put three of them up on the wall next to our bathroom sink and they are just what I needed. They are the perfect size to fit all the bottles without being bulky or in the way. Once stacked they become virtually invisible, it looks like the bottles are just floating there. Very, very cool. They came with all the screws and a handy little screwdriver." —Melinda Nap
Price: $16.99+ (comes in a pack of two, three, four or six)
Promising review: "This is my skincare holy grail. I use it directly after washing my face every morning and night. It allows my skin to better soak up any products I use after. It is *not* a replacement for moisturizer/lotion, simply a supplement to help your skin better absorb the moisturizer/lotion. It has no scent or fragrance. One to two pumps is all you need for entire face and neck. I have now gifted this to two loved ones who wanted to amp up their skincare routine and they love it as well. My skin responds better to any actives I may use on my face at night, as it helps keep the moisture from escaping the skin as fast. One bottle will probably last me about a year. I know the tiny travel size I first bought at a beauty store lasted me 2.5 months, so I imagine this 3.38-ounce bottle will last me much longer. You’re still reading? Just buy it!" —Bran H

Promising review: "I researched drones for months trying to find the best drone for the money as a Christmas gift for my husband. For the features and video quality, this one can't be beat. He absolutely loved it even better compared to another more expensive drone he had about a year ago that was stolen. He's so proud of it, he shows it off to everybody lol! Holystone has amazing customer service too...you get to speak to a real live associate and they are more than helpful. They really stand behind their product and have guided my husband through any questions or concerns he had about his new drone. That was an important factor to me when I chose them as well. Many reviews and research indicated they had the best customer service and although $300 or so isn't going to break the bank, it's still a chunk that I would not like to go down the drain. So it was nice to know they stand behind their products and now I feel confident enough in the company and product that when it's time for him to upgrade to a more expensive drone, it's Holystone all the way! My husband is happy and that's all that matters!" —Amazon Customer
