29 Cute Little Treats That'll Give You The Same Thrill As Picking Out A Gift At The Dentist's Office As A Kid
A windproof lightsaber lighter so you can use The Force to ensure you're never stuck on the dark side of things. Although it does glow red, so maybe not... At least they have cookies!
An 18-karat gold-plated mood ring that's an adult spin on the version you picked out after a particularly traumatizing dentist visit. Now you can enjoy a color-changing ring *without* getting a cavity filled to earn it.
A Stitch-shaped Scrub Daddy so you can clean up after your own experiments in the kitchen. Like the original, it's stiff when cold and squishy when warm, making it a real monster at scrubbing!
An adorable ladybug pin in case you need to manufacture some extra luck. Pop one on your lapel, hat, tote, or wherever else needs a tiny companion.
A pocket library complete with mini books (including classics like It, The Hobbit, and Catcher in the Rye). Give it a shake to satisfy your lust for destruction, then meditatively put them back on their shelves when you need a little screen break.
Squishy Goliath Jelly Blox you've likely seen in many ASMR videos, and with good reason. The blocks connect like Duplos, but with the added bonus of not hurting your foot if you step on one. Stretch 'em, play with the encased confetti-like pieces, and then build a gummy-like castle worthy of Candyland.
A variety pack of freeze-dried Skittles that honestly has me drooling just by looking at them. (The CHOKEHOLD that Wildberry Skittles has on me...) Unlike their chewy counterparts, these puffy treats start crunchy and then melt in your mouth.
A viral "Soft" perfume rollerball for anyone who wants people to think of them and think "yum." Reviewers compare this ~$5 fragrance to caramel, lemon cupcakes, warm vanilla scones, and cotton candy.
A set of vintage-inspired spoons — if these aren't cottagecore, I don't know what is. Set them out at your next tea party and let the compliments roll in. Praise for your good taste? Sweeter than two lumps of sugar.
A miniature Stanley tape measurer keychain so you no longer have to wonder how tall something is and try to guesstimate with your hands. This would come in clutch when furniture shopping or calling out a date for lying about their height (JK, JK).
McCormick's Potato Topping Seasoning to amp up an otherwise bland side. The blend of salt, garlic, and asiago cheese (omg, yummmm) can be sprinkled on baked, mashed, or roasted potatoes to give 'em next-level flavor...but why stop there? Spoon some on popcorn, grilled chicken, pizza, or literally anything else.
A Mini photo and video camera keychain so you can take moody shots at a moment's notice. Sure, your phone is serviceable, but sometimes you need a little grit, right?
Itty-bitty, collapsible storage crates in soothing pastel colors to give your knickknacks the vinyl record treatment. Listen, you don't have to throw away your mountain of pilfered condiment packets, but they'd look a lot nicer in one of these.
A handmade orchid hair clip for anyone who wants to look like they're about to attend a gala at a botanical garden. Pair it with a gown or just a T-shirt and shorts — either way, you're gonna look unbe-leaf-ably cute.
A fanciful mushroom kitchen timer, which is so much more endearing than using your phone or screaming at Alexa. It also has a glowing 4.5-star rating on Amazon, which is kinda unheard of for novelty timers.
A set of vinyl coasters offering a retro (and super cute) way to protect your furniture from condensation. Guests that actually want to use a coaster? How the turntables.
A Clogs memory game that tests your ability to remember and match up to 24 pairs of vintage leather shoes. The pack comes with 48 cards and takes 30–40 minutes to play.
Teeny-tiny onigiri vases who look thrilled by the opportunity to hold your new clippings and flower buds. Each smiling rice ball is handcrafted, so they're all unique.
An alarmingly adorable capybara night-light to keep you company on sleepy evenings. Just bop your new silicone friend on the head to toggle through seven different colors and three dimness settings. And if you opt for the flower version, it comes with two different buds to hold. 🥹
A Godzilla microwave cleaner that shoots out cleansing steam instead of lasers. Not as cool, but definitely more helpful. Just fill the silicone tool up with water and vinegar, microwave it, and then marvel at how you found a cleaning supply that's actually fun.
A disco ball watering globe to make your plant feel like they're at their own personal dance party. It'll keep your plant hydrated between watering sessions and, when the sun hits just right, create a fun light show in your home. That's a lot of benefits from what seemed like an impractical purchase at first. 🤔
A bear-y nice under-eye stick formulated with skincare darling niacinamide, along with soothing Icelandic mineral water and seaweed extract, to soothe puffiness and dark circles. If a beauty item isn't shaped like an animal, is it even worth getting?
A pair of aromatherapy gemstone soaps sure to make your guests' bathroom experience seriously rock. Dad jokes aside, these soaps come in amazing fragrances (think: lavender, lemongrass, sandalwood, etc.) and have real crystals inside, like amethyst and tiger eye.
The TikTok-loved Maldon flaked salt packaged in a box so beautiful, you'll be hesitant to ever open it. Of course, you should, because everything from fish to brownies tastes better with a dash of really nice sea salt.
Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel, in case you've always wanted to not only drink the energizing tea, but also wear it. This cult-fave can help quickly minimize eye puffiness and swelling using its combination of caffeine and hyaluronic acid. All for less than the price of a six-pack of White Label!
A set of limited edition Band-Aids with cute, summery floral designs because who said a papercut can't be a fashion statement?
An acrylic grid box for your tiniest treasures. The clear design ensures that your discoveries can be properly viewed, like a miniature museum. And if you fill it with sea glass, it'll create a stained-glass effect when you hold it up to the light! Time to hit the beach. 👀
Iridescent pimple patches in fun shapes like hearts and stars because zapping zits might as well feel like an art project. I wish all problems could be solved with a sticker. Place one on an open pimple, and it can protect and help speed up the healing process.

I'm Convinced Quiet Luxury Accessories Are Dying, and This Must-Have Handbag Is Proof
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. If you're like me and have meticulously built a wardrobe of impeccable closet essentials, there's only one way to make those staples pop: with a head-turning collection of accessories, of course. Right now, Gucci's Giglio bag is the go-to statement piece taking several celebrity outfits to the next level. Most recently, Sienna Miller stepped out carrying the GG monogrammed tote over her shoulders. Staying true to her bohemian-inspired style, she styled the bag with flared jeans, red clog sandals, and a cropped trench coat perfect for the rainy London weather. All in all, it was a look that allowed the accessories to do all the talking. Stateside, Dakota Johnson has been spotted multiple times carrying the new It bag while jaunting through the New York streets. In one outfit she styled an undeniably chic silk skirt with a pointelle blouse and a floppy hat (again: accessories, people!). During another outing, she turned simple leggings, a sweatshirt, and Nike sneakers into a casually cool moment by finishing the look off with the logo-emblazoned bag. And it's not just the celebrities flocking to the capacious tote. The girlies on TikTok are obsessing over it, too. Some note how it's the perfect work bag upgrade; a few say it's exactly what they were looking for to travel in style; while others say it's the perfect carryall for busy moms running errands. Either way, there's no denying the versatility of an expertly crafted tote. If you're looking for a bag that will become the hero of all of your fall that, if you're looking for a bag that you can wear year-round, this is the one.

The Lowdown On Skims' First Foray Into Beauty – Shapewear For Your Face
Just a few weeks ago, Kim Kardashian walked Demna's final couture show for Balenciaga as a modern-day Elizabeth Taylor, draped in a faux-fur coat and nude slip. Alongside her was Isabelle Huppert in a chin-cupping turtleneck, reflecting a vision of New Hollywood where cosmetic materials are seamlessly integrated with couture. And last week, Kardashian pushed the boundaries of fashionable shapewear one step further, launching a Skims sculpting face wrap. The Seamless Sculpt Face Wrap is said to boast 'signature sculpting fabric' and 'collagen yarns for ultra-soft jaw support.' Priced at £52, the wrap comes in two colours—clay and cocoa—and is already sold out. The new Skims shapewear seems to resemble the type of wrappings that patients use for post-operations care from procedures like facelifts and looks similar to the 'compression' garments that some TikTokers have taken to wearing to bed, for purported 'jaw slimming' benefits. Concerningly, the Sculpt Face Wrap even looks like it could be part of the 'morning shed,' a social media phenomenon that took over last summer, in which women showcased the removal of extreme and often excessive nighttime-only beauty items like mouth tape, overnight collagen masks, and sculpting chin straps. Popping out of the house to run errands in under-eye patches and athleisure is already the norm, and the brand's foray into shapewear-meets-beauty feels like an extension of today's culture. 20 years have passed since Steven Meisel's 'Makeover Madness' editorial spread, in which Linda Evangelista sported post-op finery, and nearly the entire conversation surrounding the relationship between style and cosmetics has vastly changed. From its inception, Skims seemed to strike gold. Its Kardashian-founded origins, It-kid-of-the-moment-filled campaigns, and relatively accessible pricing flooded the shapewear market, and no other brand has come close since. In six short years, the company, which was co-launched by Jens and Emma Grede, has reached a £2.9 billion valuation, opened a 5th Avenue flagship in Manhattan, and collaborated with brands, including Swarovski, Fendi, The North Face, Dolce and Gabbana, and Roberto Cavalli. A pending co-branded line with Nike - announced in February - is on the way (the website currently says 'coming soon'). In June, TikTok user Rachel Leary took to the app to ask what breast augmentation Kylie Jenner had undergone. Jenner saw the video and shocked everyone by answering explicitly in the comments: '445 cc, moderate profile, half under the muscle!!! Silicone!!! Garth Fisher!!! Hope this helps lol.' Kris Jenner quickly followed suit, also commenting on Dr. Fisher's Instagram, endorsing the surgeon with glowing words, adding, 'You did my first facelift in 2011… 14 years ago!!!' Skims' ubiquity, which is naturally enhanced by the family's continued relevance in pop culture, is its biggest power. The wrap could mark the first of the label's beauty expansion, since Skims acquired Kardashian's beauty company, Skkn by Kim, earlier this year, combining it all under one brand—and it could signal a shift in the way that these products are incorporated into the wider brand.
