We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
1. A set of compression travel bags so you can squeeze in another outfit (or two) the next time you hit the road. Squish things down just by rolling them up — the air will vent out the bottom and keep things nice 'n' snug till you touch down.
2. A set of self-heating eye masks if you wish you could hit the mute button on the world. They're lightly scented with jasmine and will start to warm up the second they're unwrapped, treating your face to some relaxing warmth and aromatherapy at bedtime.
3. A stand-up Stasher bag your homemade soups and sauces would *love* to be frozen in. In addition to having a leakproof and airtight seal, it's also safe to use in the microwave, dishwasher, and oven (and the freezer, too, obvi).
4. A desk organizer if you, like me, use your workspace as a gathering place for all manner of knickknackery. At the end of the day, you can simply slide your keyboard underneath to reclaim a little real estate.
5. A pair of funky blue light glasses I can pretty much guarantee you'll get compliments on. Just because you're all about protecting your peepers from your screens doesn't mean you have to be boring about it, people!
6. A set of tablecloth weights that'll keep things from flapping around the next time you're dining al fresco — better weather's coming, y'all! Simply clip 'em to the corners and you're off to the races.
7. A psychedelic mug I predict will be my go-to for morning coffee. It's made of black clay sourced from Medicine Hat, Alberta (each one's completely unique, too).
9. A pack of skull-shaped whiskey stones if room-temp drinks are simply not your jam. They're made of stainless steel, stay cold for longer than marble or other stone, *and* they have rounded edges that won't scratch your glassware.
10. An Act + Acre scalp derma roller so you can bless your noggin with some microneedling action. Rolling it over your head will help stimulate bloodflow and can improve hair growth and scalp health, too.
11. A pair of airtight food containers you can use to make deeelish overnight oats. The tight-fitting lids are also lined with silicone, giving them extra leakproof powers so you can take your morning meal on the go.
12. An oversized half-zip sweatshirt I really wanna snap up for my partner (so I can steal it later, OFC). It's made of French terry — a fabric that's equal parts weighty, soft, and drapey — meaning it'll get worn all year 'round.
13. A colour-changing egg timer that'll help you make perfect oeufs every time. By absorbing the heat from the boiling water, you'll see the cooking process in real time so you'll know exactly when your eggs are ready to plate.
14. A skin-smoothing foot exfoliator so you can slough away those tough calluses. It's infused with colloidal silver (for antibacterial reasons) and has a sturdy handle to keep it from slipping from your soapy grasp.
15. A pair of ~squiggly~ Jenny Bird hoops if you're on the hunt for a funky update to your classic pair. It doesn't hurt that they've got ball backings, so you won't have posts digging into the soft skin behind your lobes.
16. A pack of gel stress balls so you can squeeeeze your stress into oblivion. Not only is each one a different degree of firmness, but they're infused with a unique scent that'll give you a dose of aromatherapy, too.
17. An extendable tension shelf you can pop anywhere you need a smidge of extra storage space. Reviewers love that they're able to install it themselves (rather than calling a pro) and add that it's incredibly stable, too.
18. A 2-in-1 phone charger lantern that should be added to your emergency kit, like, immediately. This baby is shatterproof, waterproof, solar-rechargeable, lightweight, and can give you up to 50 hours of light on a single charge.
19. A fringed denim jacket you'll wanna whip out the literal *second* spring weather arrives. Reviewers love the oversized fit, saying it's perfect for layering over their favourite sweatshirts.
20. A multipurpose facial tool if you'd like facial tension and puffy under-eyes to leave your life ASAP. Like traditional gua sha stones, it's designed to fit along the contours of your face so you can keep those cheekbones looking chiselled.
21. A set of spouted glass cruets you can use to decant all your cooking essentials. Just in case you're second-guessing yourself, I just wanna share that the set *also* comes with 22 different labels so you can customize your setup.
22. A set of produce containers that'll keep things fresh 'n' crispy 'til the last bite. In addition to being stackable for easy storage, they also come with foldable partitions you can adjust to make space for all kinds of fruits and veggies.
23. A squishy gel head wrap that'll cool down your noggin and help ease fevers, migraines, and sinus congestion. It'll stay cold longer than ice and block out beams of light that might aggravate your condition.
24. A bottle of Glossier Milky Oil makeup remover that'll dissolve even the most long-wearing formulas. Because it's actually a mix of cleansing oil and micellar water, your face won't feel parched or tight after you're done washing up.
25. A Logitech Litra Glow monitor light that'll keep you looking 💯, no matter how many hours you've been streaming. The extra-wide design diffuses light so you can avoid unflattering shadows (but you can always adjust the brightness and colour to get that *perfect* lighting).
26. A pack of fizzy sinus-clearing bath bombs when nothing else seems to be doing the trick. They're designed for babies, which is great if you (like me) become a total toddler when the sniffles hit.
27. A rippled mat so you can store bottles horizontally without sacrificing precious space for boxes, bins, or racks. Reviewers say they're a must-have for storing drinks before a party, but you can use them for bottles of vinegar or sauce in your cupboards, too.
28. And lastly, a hot stone massager so you can give yourself a spa-level experience without ever leaving home. Pop the top to fill it with hot water, then glide the glazed porcelain nodes all over your achy, breaky bod (thanks to the silicone casing, it won't slip from your grasp).
