Promising review: "I love my newest e-reader. I have owned every Kindle but the Oasis. This is my favorite. I love that it waterproof with Bluetooth capabilities. The reader is the perfect size and lightweight. I highly recommend this e-reader. —katcon

I use these and absolutely love how refreshed and healthy my skin feels afterward. It also doesn't feel thirsty or starved for nutrients after, and my skin naturally looks brighter and dewier.
Promising review: "These sheet masks are legit. I use one every night. It has been one week and my skin has never looked better! I haven’t had the confidence to step out without foundation in a while. After using these sheet masks consistently, I actually want to go out without foundation. My skin feels smooth, it looks soft, clear, bright, and glows! Not only does it work on me but my mom has been using them with me and there has been obvious improvement in her skin texture. After washing my face at night, I slap one of these babies on for 30 minutes and remove the sheet. Massage the extra essence into my skin and neck and I wake up with dewy, soft, supple, and glowing skin. My skin stays moisturized all day. I can’t live without these now. The price is so worth it for the results." —Amy Sanchez

Reviewers note these run a little small so order a size up.
Promising review: "LOVE these slippers! They are so soft and comfortable. I agree with those who suggest that you buy your pair one size larger than what you normally purchase. Doing that keeps your slippers very roomy inside and keeps your heels from hanging off of the back ridge. They feel safe on my feet and are very warm. They were packaged well and actually arrived BEFORE my expected shipping date!" —Marjorie

What you get: a book from the genre of your choice (young-adult, thriller, sci fi/fantasy, romance, chick-lit, award-winning, bestseller, or surprise/hidden genre), hand-selected chocolate, and a hot drink (choose from coffee, tea, or hot chocolate).
Chocolate and Book is a small biz based in the UK providing you with something to drink, something to eat, and something to read so you can get cozy at home. All books are picked by bibliophiles, and the chocolate included is carefully chosen.
Promising review: "I've been subscribed for a few months now and I love it! The box always arrives around the same time each month and I am always looking forward to it. The chocolate is special and always a little different compared to what I usually get in the store, which makes the experience a bit more exciting each time (in a good way!). Every book I have been sent so far was an exciting and/or heartwarming/entertaining/great read and I can only recommend this box! So yeah, if you like chocolate, hot chocolate and cocoa drinks, and good books, this is the book box for you! —Samantha

This has 16 colors. The moon itself is true to the actual moon's surface and texture. It can be controlled by touch or by remote and runs on a rechargeable battery. You can charge the lamp on your computer, power bank, or wall outlet.
Promising review: "I remember seeing something like this listed for over $50. I wanted one so badly because I'm obsessed with the moon and thought it would be a beautiful thing to have as a night light, but I'm cheap and didn't want to spend that much. Well, here came this listing and OMG I love it! I love how many colors you have control over and the fade function is my favorite to use. It's real easy to set up; you just have to charge it with the provided USB charger. The remote works as soon as the moon is removed from the charger and AHH it's so cool! It can really set the mood for whatever you're going for. I enjoy the detail on the actual moon; all the bumps and grooves add to the realism while the colors make it fun and interesting. You can have a 'moon-color' warm or white light too. I am so happy with this purchase!" —Tiffini

Promising review: "I used to journal and I've been wanting to get back into it. I just don't have the time. And it intimidates me, writing so much every day. This eliminates both problems. I write only a couple of sentences per day. It forces me to be creative and concise. I really have to think about what was most important for the day to write down. What will I want to look back and remember in the coming years? I find it thought provoking. This is just a great system. The book is quite small. It's very attractive looking. I love the ribbon bookmark, which is very functional." —Boxman

Promising review: "I can’t get over how soooffffttttt these leggings are. Usually leggings that are soft are a little too warm. These are great quality and feel silky smooth on my skin, keep me warm, but are also breathable. I’ve worn these alone with just a top, and have also worn them as a base layer under my jeans for a trip that I recently went on." —Stefania Veneri

Promising review: "This is definitely different than the normal scratch-off books and it is testing my creative abilities. I'm normally one to enjoy following the lines, but with this, the end result is entirely up to you. There is no right or wrong! While on some pages there is more to detail than others, I think this purchase was well worth it. I think it is really helping me to think outside the box and to concentrate more on the negative space and what I can do with it. For anyone that loves scratch books, here is a product to change how you look at it!" —kayla

Promising review: "Although this is clearly a humorous tool (to be used with a grain of salt), it's very helpful for calming down when I'm feeling really anxious or concerned over something. Sometimes, after I fill them out, I like to tape them up on my wall. The prompts 'How do you feel?' followed immediately by 'How do you *really* feel?' are very telling and encourage honesty with yourself." —Rachel F.

Promising review: "I work from home a lot, and sometimes I love working on my couch. My legs were starting to get sore from the weight on my laptop and cooling fan, and I couldn't use my mouse of course. This little laptop tray is the best $30 I've spent in a long time. It makes working on the couch SO much easier. Thank you!" —T. Taylor

Promising review: "This pillow is great. It buffers the tub so that the noise from the jets is minimal. The pillow also cradles your head and neck in a very relaxing position. It allows you to anchor your body so that you don't have to float in the water. The pillow is made with very good materials. The suction cups hold fast throughout the entire bath. The plastic is solid and won't tear unless you are careless removing it from the tub. Heed the instructions on how to remove it from the tub. It's not necessary to remove it after each bath because it does not collect soak or other residue under the pillow, even hard water scum can be easily washed away. I highly recommend this product." —Cartec

Promising review: "I listen to podcasts at night to help me block out the thoughts of the day and help me sleep and have always used headphones so as not to wake my husband. But regular headphones are very uncomfortable when you are laying down, especially if you tend to sleep on your side — these headphones solve the issue. They are comfortable and you can sleep on your side while barely noticing them. The sound quality is pretty good and the cord doesn't get in the way and hasn't shown any signs of fraying or wearing. The material is warm and cozy, but not too warm. And the headphones help block out outside noises too for a good night's rest." —Dog Lover

We've written all about how heavenly this duvet is! Check out our Chezmoi Collection comforter deep dive for more deets.
Promising review: "HANDS DOWN THE BEST COMFORTER I'VE EVER OWNED! I didn't want goose down because I didn't like how it bunched up and shed feathers. If you've had the same experience, this alternative is the way to go! It is soft, very plush and has a medium weight to it. I was afraid of washing it for the first time thinking it might tear or shred. But over a dozen washes later in delicate mode, I was proven wrong! I'm very surprised how it's holding up, even through the dryer! I justify my 5-star rating for its softness, durability, reliability and longevity! If this one wears out, I have no problem buying another one. Invest in your sleep! Best $40 I've spent." —Hey It's Joel

Promising review: "I love this product for migraines, tension, and headaches. It cools the eye area. It’s incredibly soft if you can’t stand to feel texture while experiencing a migraine. I keep it in a plastic bag in the freezer so it won’t pick up smells. I thinks it’s filled with gel beads to hold the coldness in. It has two hooks to make it tighter if needed. The minute I put it on, I have relief. I don’t take meds for my migraines yet. I am hesitant to go that route. I turn off the lights and put headphones on and have to lay down. This keeps out all light, even near the nose area. It’s hands-down a miracle." —Jenn A.

Promising review: "These are great. I have a hard time sleeping with lights on in the room and so many devices recently have incredibly bright LEDs. I did notice that some lights require more than one sticker to dim them to my desired level, but this is really an advantage as you could adjust the level of brightness by the number of stickers you place over it." —MATTHEW M PHELPS

Promising review: "Wow, these really block the light! I am going to get another color for my bedroom because I like to sleep in a very dark room. I purchased these for my living room. They are of a decent weight, hang very nicely, and look very good. And they REALLY block the light. The front of my house faces east, and we get full sun for half of the day, and these really do block the sunlight. They've been keeping the cold of the windows at bay, too. Very worth the price." —annieb

Promising review: "I bought this because I was housesitting for several weeks and quickly realized that I missed my bed linens' smell from home, which creates such a lovely way to relax and fall off to sleep. This seemed to fit the bill and I like that it is a small family business. The smell is a beautiful pure lavender scent. Just a few sprays over the linens and pillows in the morning to refresh the room and at night, the scent still subtly lingered for relaxing sleeping. I considered leaving it for my friends but liked it so much I took it home!" —GaylM

This diffuser is portable, has seven LED light options, plugs in with a USB cord, can run continuously for up to 12 hours, holds up to 200mL water, and switches off automatically when there's no more water.
Promising review (for the diffuser): "I love this. It is small enough that I can easily find room for it even on my messy night stand. Yet it held enough water to run for hours. It came packed with three extra wicks and a cute doily to put under it. You can set it to one of the different colors or to cycle through the colors on its own. It also put out a lot mist that could be smelled through out the whole room. In summary, extremely cute and works great!" —klutzysis

Promising review: "I just fell in love when I saw this. I love finding unique gift items and surely this is one of them! My friend loves history and tea and I can't believe I found the perfect gift to represent them both. The design is perfect and just like described. And I love that they put quotes on them individually as well. Worth every penny. And the tea is just delicious." —Nora

This is portable and has continuous play, memory function, non-looping sounds, and an auto-off timer between one and seven hours.
Promising review: "I love this sound machine. I'm a very light sleeper so any sound can wake me. What I like is not only the small size, but the sound quality is excellent and some of the sounds are so different and they sound so real. My favorite right now is arctic wind. It makes me feel cold so I snuggle into the my blankets, and I can adjust the volume perfectly for me." —Kimsf

The pots are two inches tall. You can also switch the succulents into a pot of your choice! The company also supports pet adoption and with every order, they help find homes for pets at risk of euthanasia.
Promising review: "I don't usually leave reviews but felt compelled to do so because I was very impressed. My 9-year-old really wanted a succulent for her desk to give it a happier vibe now that, thanks to COVID-19, she's doing homeschooling. She said her teacher has succulents on her desk at school so having a succulent on her desk would make it feel more like school. The succulents were extremely well packed with cotton and paper. Not a single plant was damaged or spilled! Wow! They kindly pack an extra plant just in case one of the five is damaged in transit. However, they all arrived in perfect condition! I was super impressed and that rarely happens. As promised, each succulent was different providing a variety of plants. They're all beautiful and perfect and my child is happy to have them on her desk. She was right, they truly DO brighten up the space. I VERY HIGHLY recommend this seller. You can see the care that goes into packaging the plants to ensure they arrive safely and in perfect condition. I couldn't be happier and once I go back to work I will be coming back here to purchase succulents for my desk." —elisselopez

This book light comes with two lithium coin cell batteries. The neck is flexible and can be moved in different directions. The light can fasten onto books, Kindles, and e-readers with an attachable clip, and is portable, foldable, and lightweight.
Promising review: "I love my book light. It is even prettier than it appears in the picture and is very well made. Not cheap at all. I was looking for a small light I could easily carry in my purse since I travel a lot. This one fit the bill. The small ball for the light might give the impression it isn't very powerful, however, it is one of the best light sources to cover my entire page and then some. The price can't be beat either. I am very happy with my light and would recommend it." —StarlinEyes6

This set of nine candles are all different sizes, made of real wax, and are remote-controlled. They have four timers and brightness levels to choose from. It even has a flickering option! Each candle needs two AA batteries.
Promising review: "These are amazing! The real wax surrounding the bulb makes them look and feel pretty authentic — much classier than the plastic stuff I was seeing at the store. The remote works beautifully, and it's nice that you can choose flicker or steady light. I think I'll order another set to use during the winter holidays too! Again, these are much nicer quality than any other electric candles I've seen, and the remote makes managing the lighting super easy." —Amazon Customer

There are over 201 tales in this, including "Snow White," "Rumpelstiltskin," "Little Red Cap," "Rapunzel," "Hansel and Gretel," "Cinderella," and "Sleeping Beauty." It'll keep you company for a while!
Promising review: "This. Book. ROCKS! Not only does it have the complete Grimm fairy tales, but it's also exceptionally beautiful presentation-wise! The cover is of excellent quality and it is bound together very well. I can't count the number of times I've flipped through the pages since September 2013 and it still looks good as new. Although a new book, it has that old feel to it; from the golden lettering and the black-contrast image on the cover to the texture of the book itself in your hands. It's like holding one of those books your grandparents may have read to you. I see myself taking this off the shelves of my future home and reading it with my future children. Nothing will ever replace the feel of a book in one's hand. With this book, one can't help but feel kind of posh yet child-like at the same time (I still get giddy whenever I bring it around with me)." —JL

Mount Lai is a Asian woman–owned beauty brand rooted in traditional Chinese medicine with a modern approach to ancient rituals.
Promising review: "I absolutely love this stone. I was on the fence about it as studies are still out on whether or not it's boosting collagen or helping with wrinkles but I did it anyway and I'm so glad I did! It definitely helps with lymphatic drainage, reducing puffiness and it also helps spread my serums/lotions/oils evenly and smoothly. I'm very happy with this product and it's a fun, relaxing addition to my skin care routine! Time will tell what else this magic stone can do for my skin but I'm more than happy with the immediate results it's provided thus far." —RhiannanC
