Promising review: "This print is so pretty. It's very high quality-looking, like it can go with other artwork in my home, not just with my Harry Potter stuff. I think you could almost say it's magical!" —Tamara
Get it from Amazon for $18+ (available in five sizes and two types of paper).
Promising review: "These are super fun. Each mug is a little shorter and wider than your standard coffee mug, and each has three recipes printed on the mug's surface. We haven't tried every recipe yet, but the ones we have worked out great. The baked oatmeal recipe is great, the scrambled eggs turned out wonderful, and the cookie recipe wasn't too cookie-like but it tasted good and who honestly expects to get an actual cookie after microwaving a cup for a few minutes? I look forward to trying the other recipes out, and this is totally a great gift for recent graduates or the college students in your life. In fact, we already ordered another set and gave it to a friend's son who just graduated high school." —Otto Correct

Promising review: "The breeds include Cocker Spaniel, Doberman, Boxer, Beagle, Poodle, Chihuahua, Terriers, Dachshund, Schnauzer, German Shepherd, Greyhound, Great Dane and many more. All are recognizable and delightfully drawn. The illustrations are so much fun to color, and there's one illustration per page. The binding is easy to flatten and stay put without having to constantly fight to keep the book open. The borders are well-defined, and there's one blank page at the front of the book and two blank pages at back of book to use for doodling, note-taking, or whatever. Plus, there's an address for download of printable PDF files is included at back of book." —Roadrunner

Promising review: "I've used other cream eyeliners — Mac, Bobbi Brown, etc. — and this one is by far the better product. Where others were dry or smudged-looking, this creamy eyeliner goes on smoothly with a solid, deep pigment. Use one layer for a smoky kohl look, or get the sharpness and depth of a liquid liner with two coats. It even works on the water line without smearing or running. The angled brush makes the perfect cat eye shape if applied flat at the outer corners of the eye. The only thing I would change is to invest in an angled eyeliner brush with a longer handle — the one that comes with the liner is a bit short. We'll see if it can outlast the sweat and humidity of summer, but so far I only have to apply it once a day. I even made the mistake of rubbing my eye and expected a disaster, but this stuff didn't budge!" —Eden Spatz-bender

Promising review: "I really like this lip stain! The usual lip stain challenges do remain: dry patches on the lips attracting more pigment, the potential for spotty coverage, the inner lip wearing off before the perimeter, etc. However, this stain is superior in a couple of ways. First, it is FAR more buildable than other stains I have used (most notably those made by Benefit); this is important to me, as I like a rich, saturated end result. Also, the formula is viscous enough that you can put it where you want it, and it stays in that spot (no dripping or running). Finally, I like the applicator — it allows me to put it on easily and precisely! Tip: For saturated, even coverage, it's important to let your lips dry fully without rubbing them together in between coats." —Artist

*I must confess that I'm a nerd who always finds that fun. So maybe I should say more fun.
Promising review: "These are great for nursing students. I need the different colors to keep my patients' information straight. Each color is for a different patient and my system has worked very well. The colors are also more appealing than your normal four-color pen, which I like. I bought this pen over a year ago and am still on pen number one, so I can confirm they also last a very long time." —Zoomzoomxpress
