1. A silk pillowcase that's much better for your hair and skin than standard cotton pillowcases and will also give your bedroom a luxe boudoir feel. Win-win!
Target
Promising review:"Ahhh, it feels so cooling. It's silky soft but it's very helpful when it's too hot. Gorgeous color too. Would make a nice, thoughtful gift." — SusanM
2. A faux-pearl–embellished claw clip to give your "updo" — aka a throw-up-and-go situation the day before hair wash day — an extra elegant feel.
Target
3. A pearlized glaze mug so you can romanticize your homemade coffee and stop spending $9 on a latte at the coffee shop every morning.
Target
Promising review:"Beautiful color and design. Perfect size for a morning coffee or hot cocoa." — Happyhunt
4. An aesthetically pleasing bamboo tub caddy for relaxing in the tub with all your favorite things without the risk of falling off the bath's side. My ideal bath time ritual? A glass of Sauvignon Blanc and reruns of Freaks and Geeks on my tablet.
Target
5. A bag of Dr. Teal's pure Epsom salt to make bath time even more relaxing. Soak your cares away and ease those aching muscles at the same time with the relaxing lavender scent.
6. A 100% cotton cream and white duvet cover for adding a cozy, boho vibe to your bed. Your slumber is about to get super stylish.
Target
Promising review:"Love this duvet cover set! It has the right amount of detail to maintain a minimalist vibe. It's easy to clean and didn't shrink in the dryer! I love the ties inside and attaching them to the comforter. Two did come off when I untied it to wash the set, but it was a fairly easy fix." — D
7. A pleather moto jacket because pleather jackets are a style staple for a reason. Their edgy, cool, and way comfier than real leather.
Target
Promising review:" I want to live in this jacket. It's the perfect length and very cute. It's not too short and sits at the waist perfectly. Goes with everything!! I've dressed it up, dressed it down. It's a little thin, so I don't wear it for warmth, but it's great for layering. Also, it's so comfy I've fallen asleep in it." — MadiM
8. A microdermabrasion and pore-extraction device for bringing the spa day to you. For a fraction of the cost (and time) this bb can help clean and rejuvenate your skin.
Target
Promising review:"This is so worth the purchase. I've had acne, scars, and discoloration for two decades, and microdermabrasion is a miracle for my skin. It is much less stressful than Accutane and cheaper than having it done in an office. Follow the instructions and do your research (such as avoiding retinol and acids for a couple of days before and after), and you shouldn't have major issues. " — J
9. A TikTok-famous mascara because it's beloved for a reason. If you want lashes that are as black as night and lusciously long and lifted, this one's for you. Lash extensions, who?
Target
Promising review:"Listen to this review, because I hardly ever review anything online, and therefore this one speaks even higher of this product. I have been using this mascara for nearly a decade, and always turn back to it. No other mascara compares for me to this one. It builds without becoming clumpy, the brush is small enough to reach the inner and outer corners of the lashes, and overall it just creates excellent length and volume simultaneously. Try. This. Mascara. 'Nuff said." — Chelsea
10. A fleece backrest pillow made for leaning on while you're watching your fave show or sinking your teeth into your next novel.
Target
Promising review:"I bought this for my boyfriend, and he absolutely loves it. It gives just the perfect support for someone constantly on their laptop in bed. Getting another one for myself!" — Marly
11. A pair of Beats Solo 4 Bluetooth headphones so you can listen to your favorite ~tunes~ in style. Catch me listening to Sabrina Carpenter's Taste on repeat.
Target
Promising review:"I love that I can customize them to my size during my workouts and runs. They fit perfectly, never falling off. The sound is immaculate, when I have these on, I can't hear anything else, and that's what I like!" — Beats Solo 4
12. A super relaxing lavender mud mask to clean, moisturize, and soften your skin. You're going to love how soothing the scent is, but don't get mad at me when you fall asleep while wearing it.
Target
13. A gorgeous three-piece bathroom countertop set so you can store your hand soap, body bar, and toothbrushes while giving your bathroom a luxe spa-like feel.
Target
This set includes a soap dish, dispenser, and a bathroom tumbler.
14. A gorgeous quilted fabric handbag for carrying your essentials in serious style. It'll instantly elevate any outfit and has tons of inside pockets, so you're destined to stay organized.
Target
15. A versatile Maidenform smoothing bodysuit that is perfect layered under your clothes or is a super chic fashion statement in its own right when paired with your favorite jeans and heels.
Target
Promising review:"I'm simply obsessed. The material is SO soft." — ap
Price: $17.95+ (originally $19.99; available in sizes S–3XL and three colors)
16. An E.l.f. hydrating face cream for nourishing your dry skin on the daily. If your face is thirsty, this ultra-moisturizing cream will finally quench it.
Target
Promising review:"This has become my go-to face cream. It is thick without being too heavy. Melts into my skin and feels wonderful. Also like that it's unscented." — Grandma of 8
17. A Hanes SuperSoft triangle bra to take your everyday bra to the next level. It's silky soft, and the seamless, moisture-wicking material will provide all-day comfort.
Target
Promising review:" I am going to buy like 400 of these bras next time they go on sale, lol! They feel like they're custom-made for me!!!! I am very short-waisted, and my boobs are relatively high up on my chest. It's very, very hard for me to find bras that fit. I'm a 34c/d.
I got this bra in a large in black and nude and they are AMAZING. Perfect fit in the band and cups. No spillover. Perfect amount of support. Material is amazing, and I don't sweat in it. I love the cutout in the center because boob sweat is real, and the breathing room definitely helps alleviate a lot of that!
If I could change one thing, it would be the seam in the center of the cup bc under tighter-fitting clothing, it can show a bit, but honestly, most of what I wear isn't form-fitting, so it's not a huge deal. The price is absolutely incredible for a bamboo bra…I have tried other brands, but they don't hold a candle to this one!!!
This is my bra for life, so please keep making it!!!! Note: According to the size chart, I should have been a medium, but I went with a large, and I am glad I did because I couldn't take it any smaller. I would suggest going up a size." — mamabear
18. A stacked gold-tone layered necklace for completing any look with a bit of eye-catching jewelry.
Target
19. A pair of floral Mary Jane flats low enough to be comfy for everyday wear but high enough to ~elevate~ your look.
Target
Promising review:"When I ordered these, I thought they were embroidered, but after reading the description again, it said sequin, and I was sure I wasn't going to like them; WRONG they are so stinking cute and true to size. They will go with everything this spring. 🌼" — Target Reviewer
20. A bottle of Essie quick-dry nail polish because who has the money *or* the patience to sit through an hour-long manicure that's going to cost the same as your weekly groceries? Not in this economy. Plus, the quick-dry formula leaves less room for mistakes when you're swiping on the nail color with your opposite hand.
Target
21. A hot and cold gel bead eye mask for making those "resting my eyes" moments even more relaxing. Pop this in the microwave or the freezer to instantly soothe your under-eye area.
Target
Promising review:"As someone who has a lot of eye strain and pain, I find that this is an amazing product to use for relief in the evenings. The warming option is very soothing and it's nice to have around for relaxation time after a long day at work." — PartywithKarti
22. A cooling face roller everyone should be adding to their everyday skincare routine. Not only does it help reduce puffiness, but it can also help with sinus and headache pain.
Target
Promising review:"Hands-down one of my favorite parts of my beauty routine. The cool roller is easy to use and super easy to clean. No more using ice cubes that drip all down my front. If you haven't tried cold rolling, I highly suggest it!" — MrsJen83
Price: $19.99
23. A faux-fur throw blanket because even though the warmer weather is finally here, there's nothing like snuggling down with your favorite blanket. Anyone else guilty of blasting the AC and wrapping themselves up in a cozy throw?
Target
Promising review:"Extremely soft to the touch. Washed it on a delicate cycle and air dry in the dryer. Feels super comfortable and cozy to snuggle in." — Serenity
24. An iridescent oil diffuser so you'll have a room that looks *and* smells incredible. You can switch up the scent depending on your mood, but no matter which one you choose, the stunning design makes it a statement piece for your room.
Target
This 100-ml diffuser has many features such as auto shutoff, two mist settings, and a number of light options!
According to Johns Hopkins, you may want to avoid diffusing oils around larger groups and young children because of the side effects of different oils. You may also want to avoid using an oil diffuser around pets with breathing problems, according to the ASPCA.
