Promising review: "One of my favorite things about fall is getting pumpkin spice coffees from the coffee shops. When I saw these on Amazon I was excited that I could have my pumpkin spice drink all year long. I have enjoyed adding this syrup to my coffee in the summer as much as I do during the fall." —Kindle Customer

The balm is phthalate-, paraben-, cruelty-, and gluten-free.
Balm #1 is definitely expensive for a lip balm, but it's truly the best I've ever used. Even though I use it daily, day and night, each tube lasts me about six months. A little goes a long way with this thick, clear balm, and it never feels heavy or sticky. It simply makes my lips feel their best. I don't see a future in which I don't always repurchase this when my tube runs out — I've been using it for about two years, and have zero complaints.

The branches are battery operated, bendable, and have a timer.
Promising review: "This product is of good quality and very realistic looking. I love the branch/twig vine and when lit it looks absolutely beautiful. You can bend the branches to your liking and having a timer option is fantastic!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I love this thing! The print is nice and large, and the spiral binding is super nice. The paper is still newspaper-y which makes it feel like a newspaper crossword without having to lug around a newspaper. I use erasable pens, and they erase great. The boxes are plenty big enough for the letters and the crosswords are all appropriately 'Monday' difficulty. Great thing to have! Can’t wait to finish it and move on to Tuesday!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "Had this teapot for a while now and I am OBSESSED! The infuser is surprisingly great for loose leaf tea. I use it one or two times a day, and it has held up great so far. Plus, it is adorable to look at and has added such a nice pop of color to my kitchen." —Kimberly Bringas

Brooklyn Tea is Black-owned and based in — you guessed it! — Brooklyn, New York. I love their tea because it's very high quality *and* they give you super precise brewing instructions on the back of the packaging. So helpful! Due to high demand, orders will take three to four weeks, but it's worth it! And hey, it's something to look forward to.
Get them from Brooklyn Tea: the Vanilla Rooibos for $5.99+ (available in six sizes) and the Darjeeling for $6.99+ (available in six sizes).
This cream is paraben-, phthalate-, and cruelty-free, as well as vegan.
Promising review: "I have sensitive skin and breakout from everything. This cream is so great and goes on clean, meaning there's no oily feel or anything like that. I noticed my skin texture is softer and smoother — less breakouts, too. Highly recommend this!" —Mbois
Get it from SkinStore: a 2-ounce version for $14 and a 6-ounce version for $34.
To care for this blanket, machine wash cold and tumble dry. Not so hard!

The side trays are adjustable to fit a variety of tub sizes.
Promising review: "Perfect gift for the bath lover, and great way to make a bath look more thoughtful and designed even when not in use. Our tub is deep and has handles that this tray fits perfectly on. The ability to slide it apart makes it easy to customize to the right width. When not in use the trays and holders are a perfect place to store bath accessories (bubble bath, candles, etc.). The holder fits an iPad 12" in the vertical position, but not really horizontally, that's tough if you wanted to watch a show. It's possible to prop it up though using the grooves in the tray so overall this does the trick. It comes with removable soap/wine trays that can be reconfigured or removed entirely if your tub is not as wide." —C McA

Promising review: "When I saw The Comfy on Shark Tank I just knew I had to have one. I live near the beach and it is perfect for chilly mornings and cool evenings. I absolutely love mine. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the fabric. It feels so luxurious that I want to wear it all the time. I bought myself a navy blue one but I am already thinking of getting a couple more ordered for both my kids. Great product." —Kat

Promising review: "Sitting in the bed can be luxurious unless you are sliding down or pillows are going between the mattress and the bed. These pillows elevated me enough to comfortably knit for hours and kept any pillows from their normal disappearing act." —Williamettia Scott
Get it from Amazon for $43+ (available in two sizes).
The candles have a timer function and require AA batteries.
Promising review: "I ADORE these candles. Five years ago I ended up living with several cats. At that point, I stopped burning candles (for everyone's safety). I missed the warm glow of candles. A couple of years ago I came across these lovely, wax, flameless candles WITH timer. I have them scattered throughout my house on random bookshelves, in large houseplants, bathroom counter, kitchen counter, etc. and they all pop on just after dusk (via the timer). Around the holidays we put one in each window. It's an effortless way to make your home feel a little bit warmer and cozier every single night!" —Aaron

The stoneware insert and lid of the Crock-Pot are dishwasher safe!
Promising review: "Great design, beautiful color. I like that the interior is ceramic crockery, rather than aluminum or metal like many models. It is also the perfect size for making anything from soup, to an entire (small) roast chicken, family, party or personal size." —amazcustomer

Read about my love of my own Crock-Pot in "The Crock-Pot Is The Best Way To Make Delicious, Simple, Home Cooked Meals."
This runs for 16 hours before running out of ~steam~ and features an automatic shut-off feature just in case you forget.
Promising review: "I've never used a humidifier before so the whole experience is new for me. However, I powered the Ultrasonic Cool Mist on and within an hour I noticed the air felt significantly different in my apartment. I live in the northern U.S., so I'm used to dry, cold winters and the dry noses/skin that accompanies them. However, since using this product every night, I've noticed the cracks are healing and not coming back! Even though the function is excellent. I'm also impressed by how silent the machine is. We put it in our bedroom and I have no problem falling asleep. 10/10 would buy again, and I've recommended it to my family and friends." —Chandler

Promising review: "I bought this robe for my wife because she is always cold in the mornings and night and she absolutely loves it!

If you are looking for a robe, this is a must buy!" —HB

Besides being used for hot liquids, the mug can also be used for serving things such as oatmeal *or* to keep cold beverages cold. It comes with a lid, is dent-resistant, doesn't sweat, and is dishwasher-safe.
Promising review: "Wow, what a great product. I’ve transitioned from a regular coffee cup to this. I was always reheating my coffee but no longer.

This mask is cruelty-free.
Promising review: "I woke up this morning and my face felt dryer than usual. It always looses moisture in the cooler months. I knew I needed to reorder Moon Mask. It’s a life-saver for the cold, dry months. I use it every night and a little goes a long way. I love Moon Mask so much!" —Bre

I have one of these and cannot recommend it enough. I love to be tucked in or have some pressure on me when I sleep, but a weighted blanket can be just too much sometimes. The Hatch sleep pod keeps me nice and cozy but is breathable, so I don't get overheated. 10/10.
Get it from Hatch Sleep for $89.99 (originally $110, available in three sizes).
