Amazon's "add-on" items are small and inexpensive products that won't ship on their own, but can be purchased with other shipped-by-Amazon items as part of orders over $25. You can get some awesome stuff, and it's an affordable way to impulse-buy or try out a product. Hey, you have an Amazon order coming anyway!
There are a few more important things to know. If one of your fave items is an add-on and you don't want to have to order it with a bunch of other stuff, you can opt to "Subscribe and Save" to recieve the item regularly without the $25 requirement. Also, you can always keep add-ons that interest you in your cart and they'll be saved there until you have an order that's eligible to include them. Oh, and if you fall in love with several things in this post, that $25 requirement can also be met with a cart full of only add-on items. Just an idea.
So now that we've cleared that up, here are some awesome, affordable finds you're definitely gonna want to add to that cart:
1. Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay, a miraculous mask that over 15,000 (!!!!!) reviewers swear by for getting every last bit of gunk out of their pores.
2. Divider sticky notes great for studying, note-taking, annotating books, or any other organizational task you face, smarty pants.
3. A super-strong, weather-resistant, easy-to-tear take on duct tape, because when don't you need duct tape? I've always been convinced it can solve anything.
4. Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Night Cream, a paraben-free moisturizer that also claims to reduce fine lines. It gives new meaning to the phrase "beauty sleep."
5. DampRid moisture absorber, which comes in handy little tubs that'll mil-dew a great job of keeping the air free of that icky, humid smell that's definitely the worst part of summer.
6. V.I.Poo, a scent-trapping spray you spritz on the water before you do your business, so no one will ever have to smell the evidence.
7. Glam gold foil playing cards for hosting the fanciest game night ever.
8. A cucumber witch hazel toner with aloe vera and antioxidants that'll cleanse your skin like a dream — maybe that's why it has over 3,000 positive reviews.
9. Adorable plastic baggies shaped like mason jars so you can pack the ~artsiest~ lunch of all time.
10. A super-volumizing mascara that'll give you lashes worthy of a flirting cartoon character.
11. A pack of Command strips so you can decorate your walls without making holes or leaving behind any residue.
12. A rubber ducky that'll not only make bathtime lots of fun, but safer, too — it's got an indicator on the bottom that shows the word "hot" when the water temp gets too high.
13. A 12" Loofa dog toy you'll definitely want to gift your furry friend. Especially if you're anything like me and still remember those commercials with the little dachshund who loves one of these and it still makes you get choked up.
14. Or a dangly cat toy aptly called the "Cat Dancer," which may inspire so much joy in your feline, they'll burst into a happy dance.
15. A hella hydrating lip balm that adjusts to the pH of your skin and turns the perfect shade of pink just for you.
16. Aww-worthy woodland critter pencils you simply moose-t add to your desk. Everybunny will want to know where you got them, for fox sake, so I couldn't bear it if you passed up a product so cute.
17. A frosting spatula and a decorating tool that'll totally take your baking game to the next level (extra Instagram likes are basically included).
18. A classic Rubik's Cube so you'll never be bored again. I dare you to resist looking up a YouTube tutorial on how to solve it — I believe in you.
19. A pad of clever sticky notes that's actually honest about the struggle of trying to remember things. Will you actually ignore your to-do reminder? Maybe, but at least you tried!
20. A jumbo bag of Hershey's Kisses to help you prematurely fulfill your dream of becoming the grandma who always has candy for everyone. Or you could always save them all for yourself.
21. An anti-static detangling comb that'll make frizz and flyaways a thing of the past, even for the thickest of tresses.
22. A lightweight BB cream sure to become the new foundation of your beauty routine.
23. A set of metallic Sharpies so everything you write will truly shine.
24. A super versatile S-biner clip (aka a double carabiner) that can support up to 75 pounds.
25. A Play-Doh factory that'll manufacture fun for you and your favorite kiddo.
