    4. An adjustable headband that'll keep your hair out of your face while you're doing your skincare routine. There's even a nifty slit at the back for your ponytail, so you won't need to stress if you've lost your elastic.

    5. This lightweight hair serum that'll give you glossy, healthy hair from root to tip. It's packed with avocado, rosemary leaf, and safflower oils that are equally loving to all hair types, so you could share it with your siblings or roommates (not that you'd want to).

    8. A durable tote bag that'll basically do everything. It's strong enough to hold up to 22 pounds of stuff, can double as a funky planter, and is naturally insulating, so you can grab fresh herbs at the market without worrying they'll freeze on the way home.

    9. An elegant storage box that'll help you hide your odds and ends and make them easy to find, too. Each drawer rotates 360 degrees, so nothing will ever be out of reach again.

    10. This adorable heating pad that'll make cramps and aches a prob-llama of the past. It's filled with buckwheat and lavender, so you'll never have to stress about it leaking goo or scalding water.
