This underwear has literally changed my life. Not only have I saved some serious cash on buying pads and tampons every month, but I never have to worry about things like chafing, sweating, leakage, staining, or any of the other myriad unpleasant *feels* I'm blessed with during my period. They're lined with dark fabric, which means blood is basically invisible — a blessing for squeamish folks. And they're easy to wash, too!

"I am a forgetful person who loses all of my stuff all the freaking time, especially my wallet. That's where this little device comes in handy. I just slide the Tile Slim into one of the credit card slots in my wallet and can now track where it is with the help of the free Tile app. If I can see that it's in my home on the map but can't find it, I just ring the device and it sets off a symphony of noises that help me hunt it down." —Alice Prendergast

In the interest of transparency, I was never a really big believer in setting sprays. But I can clearly pinpoint the exact moment I knew this spray was the real deal: I was wearing a pale sweater with a high collar that was always dingy and dirty right around the top (aka where it touched my face, and by extension, my makeup). A light misting of All Nighter and even after a full day of wear, my sweater was CLEAN. AS. A. WHISTLE. I'm talking zero transfer, no smudge, no NOTHING. Try this immediately — your clothing (and your skin) will thank you.

"When it comes to hair ties, I'm a pretty picky person. I hate the classic ties that dig into your wrists and I wouldn't be caught dead with a regular ol' elastic in my ponytail. However, my hair is super fine, meaning it slips out of almost anything I put in it, so just any old alternative won't do. Insert: Kitsch hair ties. These coiled ties wrap around my tresses and actually stay put until I'm ready to let down my locks (you know, like Rapunzel). Also, they don't leave indents in my hair, which is a blessing since my hair is very prone to getting bent out of shape." —Alice Prendergast

"These headphones were a total game-changer for me. I don't have to crank the volume to block out noise. The padding on them is so soft, they don't cause headaches, and the battery power on them are incredible. I've used them every day for a couple of months and I've only had to charge them a few times." —Bianca Guzzo

For a person who somehow always manages to break out during travel, this has been a total life-saver. It's protected my skin from harsh air conditioning, wind burn (courtesy of long road trips with the windows down) and changing environments, so I don't have to tackle a zillion zits first thing upon landing. And you can even slip into your carry-on!

"Until very recently, I was one of those stuck-up people who thought reading anything other than *actual* books was — how do I put this lightly? — stupid. Well, I am now eating my words because I am obsessed with my Kindle Oasis. I seriously cannot get enough of it. I like that you can adjust the brightness when it's dark, but read it without searing your retinas when it's light out, thanks to like paper-like quality of the screen. I also love that I can take it in the bathtub and not fear soaking every page and making my novels unreadable (been there, hate that). Plus, if I have a hard time making out words on the page, I can magnify the font and change the boldness of the text. This baby is definitely going with me on my next vacation — I already have it packed with books and ready to go." —Alice Prendergast
