    Just 25 Cute And Useful Things You'll Want For Your Next Virtual Hang

    Look cute, be organized, and stay comfy.

    1. An opalescent phone case that'll dress up your device (and hide any dings and scratches in the process). It's slim and lightweight, and features a raised bumper that'll protect your screen in the event of an accidental drop.

    4. These blue light-blocking glasses that'll protect your peepers while you're bouncing from one Zoom call to the next. They'll help reduce eye strain and fatigue and can even prevent headaches!

    5. A pair of discreet silver studs that'll add some bling to your lobes. From the front, they look polished and sculptural — the heart-shaped silhouette only reveals itself when you show off your profile💁‍♀️.

    6. A ring light that'll protect you from unflattering shadows and help you look flawless on camera. The light is dimmable and adjustable, so you can toggle the options to your liking.

    7. A colour-changing lip balm that'll hydrate your smoocher and leave it looking smooth and juicy. It'll adjust to your body chemistry and give you a rosy tinge all your own!

    8. A padded laptop shelf that'll turn any room in your home into a mobile workspace. The beaded cushion will mould to any surface (including your lap), while keeping your devices cool and well ventilated.

    9. A set of reusable silicone straws that'll make it easy to sip your morning java, without worrying about spills. Not only are they more eco-friendly than plastic straws, but they're also soft and flexible, so you won't chip a tooth while you sleepily guzzle caffeine.

    10. This shimmer-free highlighting balm that'll make you glow like the star you are. It's super easy to apply (dab-dab-dab!) and won't lift your makeup or leave it looking greasy and splotchy.

    11. A set of flexible wired headbands that'll make even second-day hair look chic. No one will notice your less-than-fresh roots or knotted locks when they're all dressed up in these chic accessories!

    12. This wearable acupressure tool that reviewers say has basically eliminated their chronic headaches and sinus pain altogether. Since it's super subtle, you can pop it on and hit "connect" on your next video conference, without worrying about it showing on camera.

    13. A colour-depositing hair mask that'll give your mane some TLC and boost its colour in the process. It'll help fight frizz and keep your locks looking their best while you wait for your next hair appointment.

    14. This teensy power bank, so you can juice up your phone without being tethered to an outlet. Reviewers say it charges quickly and lasts longer than other power banks they've tried, so you'll be back up and running in a hot minute.

    15. This caffeine-infused serum that'll help your skin look refreshed, revived, and ready to take on the day. It absorbs super fast, so you'll still have time to hit the snooze button before hopping on an early-morning conference call.

    16. A pair of double-walled glass mugs that'll keep your toasty beverage at optimal drinking temperature (even if your video chat runs long). The borosilicate glass is resistant to thermal shock, too, so you could even use them for frosty drinks in the summer.

    17. This lightweight cardigan with a matching sweater tank that'll make the perfect "throw on and go" outfit. The fabric is a blend of silk and lenzing (an eco-friendly material made of wood pulp) that's darted to fit snugly in all the right places.

    18. This Tatcha skincare duo that'll give your skin a major glow-up. This two-step ritual is designed to help shrink the look of pores and absorb any extra oil produced by your skin, so you can look glowy (not greasy) on your next Zoom hangout.

    19. A hammock organizer that'll help you keep track of your eyewear and other gizmos, so they'll never go missing right when you need 'em most. It can also be hung on your wall, if you're a bit short on desk space.

    20. This pearly phone ring that'll make it easy to grip your device (no matter how tiny your hands are). Reviewers love that unlike similar products, this one gentle on fingers and will bend and flex when you need it to.

    21. An owl-shaped door stopper that'll keep your pet from kicking down your door while you're doing your virtual presentation. It's made of soft yarn, so it won't scuff up your floors or bruise your tootsies if you accidentally stub your toes on it.

    22. This nature-inspired table lamp that'll double as a desktop organizer. It's easy to assemble and can be configured into hundreds of shapes, so you can easily switch it up when you get bored.

    23. This magical makeup-erasing pen that'll help you clean up your winged liner, without having to completely redo it. It's packed with chamomile and vitamin E, so it won't irritate your eyes if you accidentally give your peepers a poke.

    24. This handheld steam iron that'll work just as effectively as its larger counterpart, while being way less annoying to take out. It heats up in seconds, which is awesome if you're already late for your virtual hangout and your top is unforgivably wrinkly.

    25. And finally, a phone holder that'll keep your device upright during calls, so you can give your arms a break. It features a notched base that'll stop your charging cable from getting tangled in all your stuff.
