16 things Yahoo shopping editors bought (and loved) in February
After a long, cold winter, few things make us breathe a sigh of relief like March's arrival — and from the looks of the products in our February installment of editor favorites, many of us on the Yahoo shopping team had spring on the brain last month. Transitional wardrobe pieces like sweatshirts, button-downs and loungewear sets made the cut, as did a nontoxic manicure set; no more mittens means those nails get to shine!
We were also impressed by a smart Peloton guide for strength workouts, a sleek toaster and a clever set of duvet clips that'll keep your comforter from getting bunched up in its cover. (Who doesn't need that?) My contribution? My new Samsung The Frame TV: Now that it'll be getting warmer soon, I won't be hunkering down with as many shows and can treat my wall like an art gallery rather than a viewing station.
Well, February, we can't say we're crying because you're over, but we can smile because you happened — and in doing so, introduced us to some of our new favorite things.

Whether she's the oldest daughter who's ready to take charge of any situation or she's mommy or daddy's little angel (or a little bit of both!), she's a cherished and irreplaceable part of your family. It's easy to see why you want to celebrate all of her life's major moments! From birthdays (how is she another year older?!) to graduations or even her wedding, these times deserve to be celebrated in style.

Or maybe, your daughter is a new mom who just brought home your very first grandchild. Whatever her 'thing' is and whichever life stage she's reached, you're sure to find a special gift for her on this list. Ranging from wardrobe staples to personalized jewelry, there are a variety of great ideas for parents to give their daughters this year.

Amazon's secret beauty sale includes top picks from RoC, L'oreal and more for 35% off
As a beauty editor who tests and recommends makeup, skin and hair care for women over 40, I spend much of my week scrolling through various retail sites trying to sort out what's currently available and, if I get lucky, on sale. And, while there are plenty of worthy buys on Amazon's daily beauty deals page, I often find many more of my favorites are unlisted on this main site but still stealthily — and often steeply! — discounted nonetheless. Just this week alone, I uncovered our top mascara of the year listed at 36% off along with my pick for best eye cream slashed by 34%. The savings are seemingly endless! Below, I'm letting you in on all my secret finds! I've rounded up the 11 best, unadvertised deals I've found today, including deep price cuts on an array of top-notch items Yahoo readers love and I buy and use myself. If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.)

The dads we love: 7 famous fathers putting their own spin on parenting
Dads are getting their due this week. Ahead of Father's Day this Sunday (that's your cue to sort out the obligatory World's Best Dad mug, grilling doodad or the same polo shirt you've been gifting 15 years running), we wanted to dig a little deeper into what fatherhood looks like in 2025. Research finds that, compared to 20 years ago, dads today spend about an hour more per week with their kids. (That's especially significant considering that the weekly total for fathers who share a home with their children is 7.8 hours; for those who live separately, it's just 36 minutes.) And while by and large, moms are still considered the default parent in their families — the ones who make the doctors' appointments, arrange playdates and get a call from school — there's been a small, gradual shift. In the era of intensive parenting, dads, too, are becoming more hands-on. Using Yahoo's recent polling with YouGov, Yahoo National Correspondent Andrew Romano has a breakdown of how evolving family dynamics are playing out in homes across America. We've also sat down with several well-known fathers (and one skateboarding grandpa, Tony Hawk) to learn more about how they 'dad.' For comedian Sebastian Maniscalco, it's prioritizing firm rules over gentle parenting as he ferries his kids to Little League games and gymnastics practice. Alfonso Ribeiro is taking cues from his TV dad, Uncle Phil, and actor Hill Harper is leaning on his village for support as a single dad. Influencer Jesse Sullivan is showing the world that life as a trans dad is more relatable than people might think. Lastly, newly retired Olympic diver Tom Daley is enjoying having more time to be with his boys, while content creator Strider Patton's determination to braid his daughter's hair has spawned a girl dad movement. Get to know these dads — our Pop Patrol, if you will — a little better:
