1. A moisturizer-serum hybrid that’ll leave you with plump, supple skin. It’s light as water yet hydrating with honey, glycerin, and ceramides. Fruit oils brighten, and honey, an anti-inflammatory, soothes — all at an almost unbelievable price point. I love this so much sometimes I have nightmares they’ll stop selling it 😳.
2. A lovely and affordable Vellabox candle subscription because it is the absolute definition of the word “cozy.” These natural candles have irresistible scents curated to the season that you’ll just want to immerse your whole being in! Plus, the containers just make your room look so aesthetically pleasing. And if you want, you can just get one candle too!
3. A pair of elegant blue-light blocking glasses so if you typically stare at screens for hours, you may be less likely to end the day with a blaring headache, strained eyes, and exhaustion. These will help protect your eyes and your mood, and they’re nice enough to wear outside too.
4. An Athena Club Razor Kit for, dare I say, the best shave of your life. It’s curve-friendly, the blades have skin guards to prevent razor burn (!!!), and it has a vegan, water-activated shea butter serum built in that conditions skin and lets you forgo shaving cream. The coolest part? It comes with a rust-proof magnetic hook that keeps your razor in place so you don’t end up dropping it 20 times. You can use the hook to hang your loofah too!
5. A stainless-steel Bougie Water Bottle to take the act of drinking water to the next level. Not only is it gorgeous, but it also has double-walled insulation, is durable, has a leak-proof flip ‘n sip lid so you don’t have to keep unscrewing the cap, and doesn’t do that thing where the water tastes stale after a few hours. Fun fact: it can hold an entire bottle of wine too! Bougie indeed!
6. A Monster Calls if you’re in the mood for a tearjerker or just a poignantly told beautiful story. It’s a dark, modern fairytale about a mysterious tree monster that shows up in 13-year-old Conor’s life, and it’s there to make him tell the truth about the recurring nightmare he’s had since his mother got sick — the truth that Conor would rather die than face. It’s powerful, moving, funny, and makes me cry every time and just…if you don’t feel anything after reading this, you don’t have a heart.
7. A curl-defining cream so you can go through summer with the curls of your dreams. This helps give your strands oomph, and keeps them soft (no stiffness or crunchiness!), brushable, bouncy, and shiny. Frizzy curls begone!
8. An orthopedic pain relief seat cushion for those who sit or drive for prolonged periods of time. This helps with tailbone pain, sciatica, leg pain, and lower back pain, and encourages better posture. It’s made with memory foam too so it’ll mold itself to the shape of your bottom!
9. A Minnie Mouse canvas picnic basket that is, of course, perfect for picnics. What makes it a great picnic basket then, you ask? Well, you see it has a collapsible interior and comes with a full cutlery set for two, including a plate and wine glass set, a pouch, forks, knives, and spoons! You won’t need to worry about packing anything but the actual food. How’s that for a picnic basket?
10. This cute “Egguins” egg-holder to both store and serve your eggs in the most creative way. These penguins hold up to six eggs and you can keep them in your fridge or dunk them in boiling water (don’t worry, they’ll be fine and so will your eggs). The handle stays cool so you can comfortably pull your penguins out from the pot or carry them wherever!
11. A thickening shampoo for fine and thin hair. It uses organic coconut water and mimosa flower for lightweight body and volume, and you can physically feel the thickness of your hair after using this!
12. These mischievous sock monsters that’ll keep your socks together in the washing machine so you never again have to wonder where the heck the other sock of your fave pair went. Your socks will stay together — they were made for each other after all 😛.
13. A smooth and buildable matte liquid eye shadow for a burst of everyday color because glitter eyeshadow doesn’t go with your look all the time. This uses hyaluronic acid and calamine powder to moisturize and last the whole day so you’ll always reach for it.
14. A foldable wooden clothing rack to function as an extended wardrobe so that when the rest of your clothes don’t fit into your tiny closet, you don’t have to keep them strewn all over your chair and bed. It has a bottom shelf for extra storage and will look super chic in your room!
15. A tub of double-sided exfoliating pads that acts as both a physical and chemical exfoliant in one. With powerful ingredients like glycolic acid, vitamin C, and lemon, it’ll help clear clogged pores, fade acne scars, and reveal a bright, clean layer of skin. If your skin doesn’t feel soft, bouncy, and clean after this, I’ll change my name.
16. An all-natural deodorant that uses just five simple ingredients, including dead sea minerals to control odor, and tapioca starch to absorb wetness. You’ll feel good about using this on your underarms.
17. A dry shampoo mist because it cleanses your hair without leaving behind the infamous white powdery stuff. The mist goes on wet, and when it dries, your hair looks fresh and just-washed once again!
Promising review: “I’m very dependent on dry shampoo and other similar products, because I prefer to wash my hair once or twice a week. I have been loyal to Oribe for the past few years, but I LOVE this stuff so much. I even put it on my roots when I get out of the shower with freshly washed hair to add a little volume. It’s not sticky or crunchy at all. It really isn’t like any thing else I’ve ever used, and that’s saying a lot because I have a ton of hair products. I recommended it to several friends and family members who also love it.” —mallory thornton
