1. A handy dandy weeding tool so you can easily pluck up those unsightly plants without having to bend, pull, or kneel.
Promising review: "This works so well in a lawn or garden. The trick is to make sure the soil isn't overly saturated but wet enough that you can easily sink in and pop weeds right out. I was so surprised at the larger weeds it was able to get out. However, sometimes it is unable to grab smaller weeds or pull them out entirely. Overall, very impressed and makes it fun to pull weeds." —lilo

2. A hair and body fragrance mist that'll have you wondering if it's considered proper etiquette to sniff yourself in public. Not to see if you smell bad, but because you'll smell so yummy, you won't be able to resist taking in your delicious aroma.
3. A pair of braided heel sandals ready to be your showstopping plus-one at brunch and dinner dates with the besties, warm weather weddings, or even strutting around the office.

Promising review: "These shoes are great! I'm not one to wear heels, but I needed them for a formal dinner in Nashville. I made it all night without breaking them in. I didn't get blisters and my feet didn't hurt. They were true to size. Highly recommend." —Brooke A

4. A set of silicone luggage wheel covers that'll not only help protect your suitcase wheels when wheeling it through some potentially rough ground/bad weather conditions, but can also help minimize the noise level as well. Not to mention, they come in some really fun colors so if nothing else, they'll just look really neat!
Promising review: "Functions as advertised. Easy to install. Quality looks good, but only time will tell. The best feature is that they make your luggage stand out. Recommended!" —Jon Padilla
Get a pack of eight from Amazon for $9.99 (available in eight colors).
5. A mascara to give you lashes so dramatic, no one will believe you when you tell them you bought it for less than $5 on Amazon. No need to spend hours wrestling with falsies to get the long lashes of your dreams. Reviewers also rave that this lasts all day. Thank goodness! You have better things to do than re-apply throughout the day.
Promising review: "It was only $5, and the reviews were all really positive, so I thought, why not? So I bought it. I'm a teacher, and since the pandemic hit, I no longer wear makeup at school. Makeup irritates my skin with my mask, so I just haven't been wearing anything. Plus, it makes morning time hella easy. #bareface I only put on the mascara, literally no other makeup on my face. Just my lashes were done with this $5 magic. I kid you not — my lashes were literally ALL I heard about that day. Upon walking into the building, a teacher friend from all the way at the other end of the hall and was like, 'Oh, she got makeup on today!!!!' Each kid that came up to me commented on the lashes. One kid even told me I looked younger, and the best story of all was that a teammate of mine was out, and the sub was having trouble with the announcements, so I went in to help her. Her homeroom just went bananas about my lashes, and then they started clapping, and I got a standing ovation. A literal standing ovation. Best $5 I've ever spent LOL!" —Katie

6. A planter that...get this...also doubles as an AIR PURIFIER. Mind = blown. On the bottom, you have an H13 HEPA purifier designed to reduce the presence of dust, dander, and other allergens in the air. On the top, you have a place to display your fave type of plant.
Promising review: "This deserves its 5-star rating. It looks elegant and I love that it automatically adjusts its level of purification. It is very quiet and unless I put my ear close to it, I can hardly hear it. We put a nice plant in the planter section, and no one can tell that it is an air purifier. I have received many compliments and would absolutely recommend it. Love it!" —FerAmazonCust
Get it from Amazon for $269.98 (available in 13 colors).
7. A saline nasal gel to assist in restoring moisture to your dry, irritated nose. Between recovery from winter dryness and spring allergens in the air, this little under-$5 solution may just help you out.
Reviewers say this is also helpful if you use CPAP machines or if you fly (it helps deal with dry air on a plane).
Promising review: "I don't like to talk about it, but every year, my nose becomes super dry to the point where I sometimes get a bloody nose. I usually use some squeeze saline, but it got so bad this year that I decided to get this gel. A dab on a finger or a swab and my nose is hydrated, moistened, and not dry as a desert. No winter bloody noses! It is very light, is not slimy or like Vaseline, and it does not have any smell." —Catherine
Get it from Amazon for $3.62.
8. A pair of slide sandals that'll make you feel like you're walking on clouds. The question isn't whether you should buy these or not, the question is which colors you should buy them in. Answer: all of them.
Promising review: "Best Amazon purchase I've made! I have spondylolisthesis and spinal stenosis, so I get horrible back, leg, and foot pain. This literally helps relieve my pain while I'm working and standing on my feet. They are super cute. I get tons of compliments on them, and they are breathable, lightweight, and easy to keep clean. Perfect for Hawaii weather! 💁🏽♀️ Other brands look like this, but don't be fooled — THIS is the brand that is the most comfortable. I have other brands, and they don't cut it!" —Chelsea Proenza
Get them from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in women's sizes 5–12 and 30 colors).
9. A loose-fit capri-style jumpsuit destined to be your go-to outfit — it will be especially great on those days when the thought of having to coordinate both pants AND a top is just too. much. work!
Promising review: "I love this jumpsuit! I had ordered another one from a random Instagram ad and returned it. This one is 1,000x better and comes as advertised! It’s a light jersey fabric, very stretchy, super comfortable. I bought it for a tropical vacation and am stoked to wear it. I ordered the style with gathered ankle hem rather than the loose style and I love it. The minty sage green color is awesome also. Perfect!" —katie kos
Get it from Amazon for $39.79+ (available in six colors and other styles).
10. A stuffed waffle maker that'll easily turn you into a morning person going forward if you aren't one already. Think about it...you have a waffle that is perfection in and of itself, but now it's STUFFED WITH MORE DELICIOUSNESS?? Breakfast meats and cheeses? Nutella? Jam?! Gonna stop here before I drool on my keyboard.
Promising review: "I bought this after I saw a video on TikTok, so I had an idea about the yummy waffles I could make. First, waffles were stuffed with apple pie filling. The second one with scrambled eggs, bacon, and cheese. Just amazing!!! The only way you could make this better is to send a chef!! I definitely recommend watching a video on TikTok or YouTube to inspire you before you start!!" —Adirondackdarling
Get it from Amazon for $49.99.
11. A mystical flame colorant for upping your bonfire game — orange flames are sooooo last year. Rainbow flames? The future is here ppl!!!
Promising review: "This is amazing. For a really fun experience, get some of these for your next camping trip. As if a campfire needs improvement...but this stuff is really neat. I'd say the adults love it even more than the kids. We only used one packet, and the colors were so good — it seems like they lasted at least 20 minutes. There was even color left in the ashes the next day. We will never go camping again without several packs on hand." —TeNe
Get a pack of six from Amazon for $6.40.
12. A cleansing oil designed to clean makeup residue, potentially clear up blackheads and sebum, and help minimize the appearance of pores and acne. Its hypoallergenic and gentle formula plays well with sensitive and acne-prone skin, and many reviewers actually use it as a step in their double cleansing routine. Double cleansing = using an oil-based cleanser (like this one) and then a water-based cleanser afterward!
If you're looking for a water-based cleanser to go with this one, reviewers love this pore-deep cleansing foam from the same brand for their double-cleansing routine!
Promising review: "This is my first time ordering an oil-based cleanser and I'm so glad I purchased this one. I originally saw this product on TikTok and wanted to see what the hype was all about. After using the cleanser on my dry face for 2–3 minutes, I could visibly see the white- and blackheads on my fingers. I was a little hesitant to try oil cleansing because I have acne-prone skin; however, my face has never looked better. After each use, my face is as soft as a baby's bottom, and my scarring doesn't look as deep! The cleanser has a light, clean scent. Not super strong! I am currently pairing this cleanser with the Anua heartleaf soothing toner to achieve glass skin. #glassskinera" —Myshel Cagle
Get it from Amazon for $17.69.
13. A ruffled crew neck knit that's kinda the most perfect springtime long-sleeve top. It's lightweight but still soft (perfect for those days when it's a weird mix of warm and chilly outside) and comes in so many great colors. Plus, you can pair this with a wide variety of jeans, shorts, leggings, and skirts. Not sure what you're waiting for. Add it to your cart already!!
Promising review: "I always worry about how inexpensive sweaters will wash, and this one came out beautifully. I washed it in the machine on a delicate cycle with cold water, dried it flat on a rack, and it's as good as new. It is a beautiful and soft sweater as others have described." —craft fanatic
Get it from Amazon for $43.99 (available in 20 colors and women's sizes S–XL).
14. A pack of warming foot masks formulated with Epsom salt, shea butter, and lavender and peppermint essential oils to help bring some potential relief (and warmth) to achy feet.
My colleague Emma Lord loves these! Here's her review:
I'm a long-ish distance runner, and these were certainly an interesting experience for my feet! You slide them on and, after a few minutes, feel a tingling, mildly burning (in a good way) sensation. It doesn't quite numb your feet, but it relaxes them. I kept them on for 30 minutes and then toweled my feet off, and the tingling sensation slowly faded over the next 30 minutes. After that, my feet felt very refreshed and relaxed at a time of day when they're usually aching from all the miles I put in. The whole thing was a mess-free, easy process, and I will definitely keep them on hand for longer run days!

15. A bag of freeze-dried Sour Skittles that might make you question whether you'll ever want to eat the non-freeze-dried version again, that's how much you'll love them.
Space Age Snacks is a small business that specializes in small-batch freeze-dried candy.
Promising review: "Honestly, I didn't know what to expect going in, but I was pleasantly surprised. Skittles normally taste alright, but having them freeze-dried really made the flavors POP, and genuinely, I feel like they had more flavor than normal Skittles. (Then again, that might just be my head playing it up, knowing it's a first, who knows, who cares.) Very delicious." —John Blake
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (and check out the rest of their freeze-dried candy for more options).
16. A reviewer-loved lotion made with guarana and cupuacu butter to bring smoothness, firmness, and hydration to your skin. Best of all, it has a delish pistachio, salted caramel, and vanilla scent and will have everyone you talk to commenting on how darn good you smell.
Promising review: "I am 60, and I could not get rid of the cellulite on my legs. I started using this product six weeks ago and can noticeably see a difference. I apply morning and evening before bed for optimal results. It goes on smooth and has a creamy, nonsticky feel. The smell is dreamy, and even my husband has commented on the improvement. Make sure you apply in a circular motion for optimal coverage, absorption, and circulation." —Amazon Customer
17. A flower-shaped velvet armchair that *gasp* might make you excited to park your booty for an 8-hour workday. OK, maybe not that, but it will have you trying to angle your camera in a way that allows you to show off your new chair on video calls.
Promising review: "This chair surprised me! The chair is much more lush and sturdy than I expected and has some nice weight to it! All you do is attach the legs to the top portion, and done. Super easy to assemble and very comfy. Looks like it could be from a high-end company. Great find!" —Jordan
Get it from Amazon for $57.99 (available in six colors).
18. A set of astronaut bookends to help close the ~space~ between your books, binders, journals, and more so they stand upright and don't fall. These are just the coolest things ever.
Promising review: "I got these for my husband as a gift for his office, and he thought they were so cool. They are sturdy and hold up books well. I did think that the bookends were quite large, being that the astronauts certainly stand out. Great for your outer space fan!" —LilacsInFairfax
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in four options).
19. A pair of Adidas Cloudfoam sneakers for the most comfy pair of shoes you'll ever wear...EVER. I own these and I swear, they're really like walking on clouds.
Shoe shopping is probably my least favorite thing in the world. Not exaggerating. I have a bigger foot, I am super picky, and honestly, shoe stores kinda bore me. When I find a pair of shoes I love, I make sure to cherish them, and these are, hands down, some of the best shoes I've purchased in the past few years. They are genuinely the comfiest shoes I've ever worn, and I want to buy another pair soon because I love them that much. The comfort level feels more like you're wearing socks than actual shoes, yet there's no lack of support — so I have no issue wearing them while working out and for everyday use. Truly, these shoes make me want to cry tears of joy over how much I love them.
Get them from Amazon for $35+ (available in nine colors and women's sizes 5–10).
20. A rosemary mint scalp and hair-strengthening oil formulated with a combination of over 30 essential oils and nutrients to help nourish your locks, increase circulation, and potentially provide relief to an itchy scalp. Plus, it's great for all hair types and boasts working particularly well on types 3a–4c hair.
Promising reviews: "It does what they say it does. I immediately noticed a difference." —Chimise
"I have been in the market for a good quality hair/scalp oil for my overprocessed hair. It got very dry, brittle, and frizzy after my last color job. I heard about this product, and after reading the reviews, I took the plunge to buy it. I noticed a difference after the first use. It's understandable that hair loss will take a while to stop with continued use, but my hair feels softer and more shinier than before. Plus, the frizziness has toned down by 1,000. I would give 10 stars if I could to this product." —Mona Shanbhag
Get it from Amazon for $8.93.
21. An adorable little set of colorful flower pots for a lovely way to display some pretty flora.
Promising review: "I love these. They look great on my little patio. They are very well made and super easy to put together. They drain well and hold a fair amount of flowers and soil for the size. I found them to be sturdy, and they seem pretty durable. It's a really good value for the price, too. I highly recommend!" —Anonymous
Get a set of 10 from Amazon for $17.99 (also available in sets of black and white).
22. A crystal ball pendant suncatcher because what cooler way to celebrate more hours of sunlight than with something that'll make your living space shimmer with color from said sunlight.
23. A pair of buttery soft cross-waist leggings that'll become your new go-to when working out, running errands, or just lounging around the house.
Promising review: "I absolutely love these leggings. As a plus-size girl, it's hard to find really nice leggings on Amazon, but these are so great! They did not move much during my workout, they are squat-proof, and they are so comfortable. I will order the next pair a size down because they were a little bit more roomier in the waist than I anticipated. Can't wait to buy more colors!" —Lillian Williams
Get it from Amazon for $23.98+ (available in women's sizes XS–2X, three lengths, and various colors).
24. A glowy lip balm from beloved brand Laneige — thanks to ingredients like shea butter and coconut oil, this small but mighty tube of goodness delivers hydration, shine, and a yummy scent.
Promising review: "This makes my lips feel sooo soft and glowy! Keeps them hydrated and smells so good!" —Jordan Inglett
Get it from Amazon for $18 (available in four options).
25. A soft-serve maker for transforming frozen fruit into a refreshing sweet treat.
All the parts are dishwasher-safe!
Promising review: "I saw one of these in action at a friend's house like five years ago and thought it was just a made-up memory because making ice cream out of solely frozen fruit seems wild. But when I saw a TikTok about it, I immediately went to Amazon and bought it. Literally, this was the BEST decision of my life. I cannot believe still how amazing this thing is! It makes the creamiest, best-tasting fruit ice cream ever. It's easy to take apart and clean, and super easy to use." —DMCKAY
Get it from Amazon for $35.70.
26. A pair of waterproof Chelsea boots because April showers sometimes bring even more showers in May, June, July, and so on and so forth. Not to fret! You'll have these cute booties to help you splash your way through all the wet weather that comes your way!
Promising review: "For the affordable price point, I'm extremely happy with the quality, comfort, and fit of these shoes. I've always had trouble achieving the right fit with most boots because of my narrow feet and skinny ankles. With that being said, I'm so thankful I found these Asgard rainboots! I especially appreciate the inner lining of the boot, which doesn't feel uncomfortable on my ankles like other rubberized rainboots." —Aubri P.
Get them from Amazon for $23.79+ (available in sizes 5–13 and 15 colors)
27. A large metal claw clip for a perfectly dainty, simple, and super pretty hair accessory you'll have on repeat. Whether you're styling your hair into a little updo or just quickly putting it up to get your locks out of your face, it'll make either one look like pure elegance.
Kitsch is an LA-based, self-financed, woman-owned brand established in 2010 that specializes in hair accessories.
Promising review: "Love that you can dress this up or down! It is my go-to accessory for working in preschool to put my hair up quickly. It is elegant and classic. It is amazingly durable, even when thrown in the bottom of my heavy work bag! I am amazed by this clip. I have coarse, medium thick hair, and it is a perfect size." —Niki
Get it from Amazon for $7.29+ (available in gold and silver finishes).
28. A pair of sunnies that'll make you feel like the coolest person ever (which you are), but sometimes you just need a luxe-like pair of sunnies to really help drive that point home.
Promising review: "These are so perfect. I got the black with polarized lenses. They're lightweight, and I don't feel like they're on my face. They come with a protector bag and soft cleaner cloth. 10/10, I'll be ordering more." —Shana louks
Get them from Amazon for $15.99 (available in 10 colors).
29. A crème-to-powder eyeshadow stick to revolutionize your beauty routine. Not only does this stick glide on your lids nice and smooth, but it contains vitamins C and E to help provide some hydration in the process, boasts a waterproof formula, features a built-in smudger, AND as if that wasn't enough, is so easy to bring on the go!!!!
30. An anti-theft backpack that was truly designed by someone very big-brained. It features two hidden side pockets, and the other zip pockets are located on the backside so you can have some peace of mind as you walk through the city to get to work or embark on upcoming travels that your belongings are accessible to you and you only.
Promising review: "I absolutely love my backpack!!! I purchased the large/ khaki color and am more than pleased with the color as well as the overall bag itself. There is so much room, and it is perfect for travel. There are two side zip pockets which are completely hidden. All other zip pockets are on the backside, so while on your back, it is completely inaccessible to anyone trying to pick through your bag for your valuables. With so much room, this could easily double as a 'carry-on' if packed right. My other carry-on is so heavy, but this is perfect!! Now my best friend has to have one too!!" — Kelly
