    Life Is Too Dang Short To Not Treat Yourself To One Of These 27 Fun 'n' Fresh Finds

    This list has tech, beauty products, kitchen gadgets, and everything in between!

    1. A rotating phone stand that'll make filming TikToks or other content easier than ever — no, really! It's got two built-in phone holders, a dimmable ring light, can be extended *or* folded for storage, AND you can control all it's lighting settings with a handy remote.

    2. 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.

    3. A bottle of e.l.f. Halo Glow so you can *finally* see what all the hype is about. Feel free to get creative with this bb, because it can be worn solo, under makeup, dabbed on as highlighter, or even mixed with your foundation — dealer's choice!

    4. A lululemon crossbody bag that'll keep your stuff safe while you're out and about. The top's got three layers of security — roll, zip, and clip it to secure your goods and keep people from snatching your belongings at concerts or festivals.

    5. A tube of ultra-hydrating Gold Bond lotion that's perfect for slathering on before bedtime (IDK about y'all, but the scent of lavender always makes me wanna 😴snooze😴). The best part? It won't leave greasy splotches on your bedsheets.

    6. A pair of faux fur sandals for those of us itching to ditch our clunky winter footwear. Reviewers love them for their arch support and just-right coziness, which means you won't have to worry about blisters or sweaty feet.

    7. A teensy power bank so you can keep your fave devices juiced up even if you're nowhere near an outlet. Reviewers say it charges quickly and outlasts every other power bank they've tried.

    8. A bottle of talc-free body powder if sweat and chafing are at the tippy-top of your "no thank you" list. It'll absorb moisture in a flash, leaving behind a light lavender-aloe scent — perfect if you have no time to shower after the gym.

    9. A Souper Cubes freezing tray so you can pre-make and pre-portion all your meals (and save yourself some time during busy weeks). Each slot has a 1/2 cup capacity, and it comes with a lid to keep freezer stink at bay.

    10. A flexible electric lighter for when it's too dang windy to spark up. It's small enough to fit in your pocket, but is long enough to reach into candle jars and BBQs.

    11. A set of absorbent wrist towels if you're tired of turning your bathroom into a friggin' water park every time you wash your face. Even skeptical reviewers say they were totally sold on these after giving them a go.

    12. A DIY paper kit if your walls have been missing a certain je ne sais quoi. All the pieces are pre-cut and pre-scored, making the assembly process a heck of a lot easier (and more fun).

    13. A 7-in-1 gadget cleaner that'll help you hunt down and eradicate all traces of crumbs, spills, dust, and greasy fingerprints. Reviewers say it's just the ticket for restoring gunked-up laptops and gross earbuds to their former glory.

    14. An ultra-thin cleaning cloth you just need to wet, wring, and wipe to give your surfaces a streak-free polish. You won't need a single drop of cleaning solution to easily whisk away greasy smudges and fingerprints off things like mirrors, phone screens, and windows.

    15. A bottle of Keys Soulcare Illuminating Serum so you can bring your complexion back to life, bb! Layer it under the rest of your beat or rock it solo — it'll never pill or make a mess of your foundation.

    16. A wedge-shaped memory foam pillow that'll become your bedtime MVP. Upright, it'll make reading your fave novel a heck of a lot easier, while laid flat, it'll help relieve acid reflux and even ease snoring.

    17. A satin-lined headband you should most definitely slip on before your next self-care day. It'll keep your tresses out of your face (and your fancy face mask) and has a secure hook-and-loop fastening so it won't *pop* off at the worst moment.

    18. 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.

    19. A portable shoe dryer if you're sick of squeezing your feet into soaking wet footwear. It's even got timed settings, so you can literally set it and forget it.

    20. A set of pencil extenders if all your pencils have been sharpened down to nubs. They're dual-ended (for different thicknesses), with adjustable grips to ensure a snug fit on your writing tools.

    21. A bowl stand that'll keep things from sliding around while you're whisking up something tasty. It's got a grippy silicone coating on both sides, so your bowl won't slip out mid-mix, either.

    22. A hot stone massager so you can treat yourself to 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).

    23. A circular silicone lunch box if you're tired of trying to scrape every last drop of tasty soup from the corners of your square Tupperware. And you can safely throw this puppy in the freezer, microwave, and dishwasher!

    24. A bottle of shoe stretch spray that'll help you break up with uncomfortably tight footwear once and for all. It's incredibly easy to use — just spray it generously on your kicks, slip on a pair of your thickest socks, and putter around your place until the shoes dry.

    25. A snap-on strainer that'll prevent any un-whale-come water spills during the draining process (hehe, get it?). The bottom lip will keep it secured to your pot, so it won't slip out of place while you're prepping potatoes or pasta.

    26. A face wash frother that'll transform your cleanser into a rich, creamy foam. All you need is a few drops of water and a lil' pumping action to get things whipped up and ready for scrubbing!

    27. And lastly, a collapsible drying rack if you're seriously strapped for real estate. It's got plenty of rungs for all your tees and pants, so you can stop draping your wet laundry all over your furniture.
