My wrist is hurting as I write this, so I'm going to try this for myself!
Promising review: "Wow. I am so surprised by this mousepad. The quality is alright, the color I got (blue marble) is cute, but the wrist rest is AMAZING. When I first started using it (for work) I couldn't really tell a difference, until I went home to my personal computer and normal mouse pad, and immediately in 10 minutes felt the soreness in my wrist. It was already so used to this ergonomic one I use at work for eight hours a day! Then I could tell how big of an impact it had and how it alleviated any wrist stress I would have at work. So 10/10 for comfort, especially if you work at a desk eight hours a day, five days a week." —Emily

Promising review: "This thing is amazing. Got it for a Fathers Day gift and at first I was bummed because I wanted a Yeti like my wife has. I start using it thinking it would be just another water bottle. Not so. This thing keeps my drinks intensely cold. I was out showing a house (real estate agent) and left it in the car while I walked the place with my clients. Came back out an hour later to the gorgeous 95 degree weather and just knew it would be warm as the inside of the vehicle was burning up. I popped the lid and poured it in. It was like liquid ice. No joke. And I hadn't even added ice. It was as cool as it was when I poured my drink in from the fridge before I left the house. Highly recommend. I have no idea how much my wife spent on this puppy but it was worth it. Buy it. You're welcome." —David Banker

Promising review: "I was a bit iffy at first since I'm super picky with sunglasses but these fit SO nice!! I absolutely love these and I'm thinking about getting another pair.

Promising review: "OK, so they took my FAVORITE pen in the whole world, and then they made it better?? The Pentel Energel pens deliver super smooth writing with vivid pigment, and the size of the barrel fits perfectly in the hand. When I found out they made a slightly 'fancier' barrel with the aluminum alloy, I about flipped my lid. These pens are solid, and they still deliver the beautiful ink and smooth writing experience that I've grown to love. The fact that they're refillable is awesome, too — I'm not spending $8 on a single pen that I would otherwise have to toss out. Looks sleek and stylish, very appropriate for my job as an accountant, but allows me to throw my personal style into the mix on my desk without being too flashy." —clairenortham

Promising review: "I absolutely love these glasses! They're just as beautiful in person as you might hope, and the weight of the glass is very nice also. They're real glass, not plastic, and the gold is so elegant. I absolutely love these, and I'm thinking about getting an extra set." —JLJ

With or without flowers, this set is very modern and chic. You can add a single flower or just some leaves and baby's breath, which will bring your room to life." —Honey

Promising review: "Happy with this measuring set. The cups come on a detachable ring, and the spoons come on their own ring, which make it easy to take them off and on for using and then storing. The color is gorgeous and perfectly matches the gold cooking utensils I bought from the same vendor, as for the quality they appear well made as they are heavier than other sets I’ve used. Thumbs-up from me!" —Megan Harding

I have this set of branch hair clips, and I love 'em!
Promising review: "Cute! I expected to get some sort of flimsy piece of shit but decided to take the chance. Totally worth it! They are really nice.

Promising review: "I decided to purchase this pillowcase after noticing hair breakage from one too many bleach jobs. I really wasn’t expecting a miracle, but this product has tremendously reduced the breakage! I love the zipper closure. It’s a sturdy zipper and covered with satin. Prevents my pillow from slipping out. It’s easy to toss in the washer and has withstood many washes! I now swear by satin pillow cases and will be ordering more from this brand!" —Nikki D.

Promising review: "These brushes are so nice. Not only are they pretty but they also make hair nice and smooth. I used the paddle brush and round brush to dry my hair smooth and straight, it dried so fast. I used the round brush alone to do the loose curl blowout it’s the perfect size for medium to long hair such as mine. Being a licensed hairstylist I can say not only do they make the hair gorgeous but they are better than most other 'professional' brushes I’ve used. They are also lightweight, which helps with my carpal tunnel syndrome." —Zujeyro

Promising review: "This is the softest blanket you'll ever feel. It keeps you warm and does not overheat. It the the best throw/accent blanket we have ever had for our living room, including our electric blankets (which can get you too warm and are not as soft). Wish we would have gotten the twin size, since everyone in the house (including the cat) likes to use it. We'll probably end up getting another one!" —Kristen Madrigal

Promising review: "Actually wanted a different version from Urban Outfitters, but didn’t want to pay the huge price (and it had bad reviews) so I looked to see if Amazon had a version, and found this for way less! Shape is diff than Urban but still cute. It arrived and I love it! The shell can actually be used to hold jewelry, too (if ball ever breaks or gets lost) the ball LED colors are pretty!" —Val V
Get it from Amazon for $24.95.
I gave these to my mom recently when the *previous* pair of slips I bought her were literally falling apart. She has neuropathy in her feet, so closed slippers (or too much fur) can bother her or cause her feet to overheat. These velvety, shorter-fur sandal slippers seemed like a match made in heaven — and they are! She can't stop telling me how much she loves these, and the memory foam cushion is super comfortable. You can't beat these for the price! I literally bought her a pair to keep at my apartment so her feet can be cozy when she comes over for dinner or to watch The Crown.
Promising review: "I am in love with these cute lil' slippers. I bought some to wear around my new house and I am obsessed. They are so lightweight, yet have a sturdy bottom that does not make you slip! what I love is that it is open toed, so it’s perfect for hot days at home! I am going to be purchasing these for my sister and mom as well." —Kathy Rodriguez
Promising review: "Really surprised by how great these turned out to be! I bought them for a trip with the intent to just throw away after but loved them so much I have turned them into my house shoes. I have washed them in the washing machine and they held up great! I wear an 8.5 in shoes and they fit well!" —Leif Gilliam
Get them from Amazon for $16.99 (available in sizes 5/6–9/10 and nine colors).
It's made of RFID-blocking material, too, to keep your cards secure.
Promising review: "I absolutely love this wallet. I needed a new travel wallet, and this holds everything I need all in one place, and it still closes nicely and stays flat! Boarding pass, passport, ID and credit cards, money, checked baggage tickets, receipts, etc! Yet it doesn’t bulk up or look like an overstuffed mess. Just amazing. The description says it only holds US money, but I just used the boarding pass flap to hold all my Japanese yen (¥), which are larger. I didn’t use the zippered pocket for coins as I much prefer a separate coin purse for that sort of thing. I definitely recommend to anyone who travels a lot!" —Anthony Luu

All she needs to do is add 2 tablespoons of the mix to simmering water and steam her face over the mixture. Ahhhhh!
Promising review: "OK, not going to lie, also ordered this for my mom, but this one I ordered for myself (and wrapped it for myself too) :D SO EXCITED FOR CHRISTMAS!!!!!

Promising review: "Great tea! I have bought many other flavor of teas from this company. My all time favorite is Earl Grey so I don't know why I hadn't bought this sooner. Buying from Amazon actually saved me money and I got it a lot sooner than buying direct from company. The tin is great for other uses when you have drank all the tea. Also, I so love the tea in sachets rather than in the paper bags...such a more full-bodied flavor." —Cely Smith

Promising review: “I purchased this for my brother as a Christmas gift last year. The package arrived in perfect condition with its contents safely intact. After pouring our first glass of whisky from this decanter we immediately felt more sophisticated and used words like indubitably, transcendent, and ergo. Indeed, drinking from this decanter will make even Canadian LTD taste piquant." —Justin Pickens

Promising review: "These glasses are great. We did a blind taste test with the same wine and 100% of us felt the wine swished around in these self aerating glasses tasted better than wine that wasn’t. They also attract a lot of attention as it seems most of our guests have never seen or heard of these. I ordered a few packs and keep them in the 'gift closet' and people are genuinely excited when they receive them. At this price point, it’s no biggie if one drops now and then. Love 'em!" —Stash

Promising review: "I was very surprised with how this item came out! I used it for pictures with my baby and it was such a great quality for the price.

Promising review: "Extremely impressed with the high quality and great price of this scarf. DOES NOT look cheap...I own an Acne Studios wool scarf ($250 retail) and would say while this one is a bit lighter weight (still super warm and cozy) it is comparable in style, color, and quality to my Acne scarf. Would definitely buy again — both for myself and as a gift." —Natalie

Promising review: "Love, love, love these leggings. They fit TTS and are extremely comfortable. The hug ALL my curves and I feel damn sexy. They don't look cheap and the material is not thin. I think they are just as good, if not better, than the expensive Spanx faux-leather leggings. I might buy another pair just because." —Gera

I used a scarf just like this as a one-shoulder top the other weekend and I'll tell ya, IT WORKED! And didn't come untied!
BTW, reviewers with natural hair love this for sleeping in for protection!
Promising review: "I actually get compliments on this all the time. I just bought it as a cheap little way to accent my black purse and people are shocked when I say it's just a $7 scarf off Amazon. The print looks great and it's really soft. You can definitely tell it's not an expensive scarf if you spend some time touching/looking at it. But, it's a great accessory that apparently fools passersby!" —Katie Payne

Promising review: "I generally make my own soaps and body butters due to having extremely sensitive skin but I have completely fallen in love with this line. The lather is luxuriously ample yet gentle. The scent fills the bathroom but does not linger heavily on the body. It leaves my skin clean and soft — not dry as most bar soaps do. I highly recommend the Rose and Mirabelle scents. These bars are quadruple-milled so they do last a while." —NoIWontPutMyName

Its gives a natural-looking glow — without the appearance of excess. I use it with both a fan and regular brush. Perfect for both night and day (you'll need to vary the application depending on when you plan to use it, however). Arrived in perfect condition as well." —Ajap Boparai

Dude, the Amazon review before & after photos are LEGIT. I'm 10/10 buying some of these, myself.
Promising review: "These eye masks are absolutely amazing! I have hereditary dark circles under my eyes, as well as slight bags from being a mother of four. Eye creams do absolutely nothing for me, and I gave these a try just on a whim, not really expecting much. But they really work! The results aren't permanent, but I put these on for about an hour in the evening while I relax and watch TV, and my under eyes are much lighter and less puffy. I absolutely love these eye masks, and I will never be without them again." —Kate Johnson

Promising review: "I have been using bath bombs for years. I've used cheap brands, drugstore brands, luxury brands (Lush, YL), and more. This box gives all bath bombs I've tried a run for the money! The packaging was super cute and totally giftable. I was really impressed at the quality of the bath bomb itself too (I used Heal tonight) and I love that this uses natural essential oils. During this COVID-19 outbreak, I have had a lot of stress and anxiety and have enjoyed a bath nearly every night for the past week. This bomb gave me the most serene experience and they are HUGE! At least double the size of ones I've used before. Comparable to the size of Lush bombs. I will definitely purchase this box again when I run out and honestly it's a great price at a little more than $2 a piece. You really can't beat it!" —Heather H

The product arrived on time (even a day early) and was packaged with care. It arrived on the doorstep and I immediately opened it. It was by far the softest thing I had ever touched. Not only that, but it was beautiful and really brought out my room. I’m in love with this rug and was definitely worth the money. I plan on buying more for the living room and spare room. Dream come true!" —Dian Childs

Once you set them they turn on and off by themselves. You can also turn on ONLY the candle or ONLY the fairy lights. The seller shipped same day and I received them the next day/a day early. I will be buying a lot of these...awesome product!!!" —Tasha Ragland

Promising review: "After seeing these type of makeup brushes plastered all over Instagram, I decided to try them out. They were cheap enough so I figured if I didn't like 'em, no harm really done. Well, I LOVE them. I haven't used my other makeup brushes or my sponge since. The two larger ones I use for liquid foundation and under-eye concealer. The largest one is also fantastic to smooth out & blend your makeup look. The three smaller ones I use to contour and highlight. These work with both powder and liquid. I also feel like these are more sanitary than the Beautyblender I was using every day (though I cleaned it often). I can't believe I waited this long to try them!" —Liz
