Just 16 Incredible Pairs Of Socks — According To Passionate Reviewers
1. Hue mini crew socks that reviewers say will help you pass the Gen Z test!! Aesthetics aside, though, people also agree they're the Goldilocks of socks with a design that isn't too thin or too thick — but just right.
Promising reviews: "I was so self-conscious about being called out about my millennial ankle socks that I was desperate to find some on-trend crew socks. These are perfect. They come up right above the ankle and don't fall down throughout the day. The material is soft and comfortable. Love the cute stripe design." — Paige
"I was looking for a particular height for gym socks with my Nike Blazers and these are THAT girl. I really didn't expect them to be as soft and comfy as they are!! They are now my preferred every day socks and I will literally make shoe decisions with preference to wearing these in mind lol. I'm picky about that stuff!! I will buy again and again." — Hannah

2. A mega pack of Saucony athletic socks if you're after both performance and bang for your buck. These babies are great for runners, gym-goers, and those who aim to complete their fitness ring, as they have padded heel tabs to prevent blisters, targeted arch compression for added support, and moisture-wicking properties to keep your feet dry and prevent odors.
Promising reviews:"I'm so happy I got these socks! I didn't know it was possible to find socks I like better than the expensive, highly-rated Bombas socks. These Saucony socks are even better for me. I like how they fit snugly, but not too snug, and stay where they should on my foot. I also like the cool color selection. Plus, they have a really nice softness. I could not ask for a better sock. And, as if all that's not enough, they are so affordable. I can't get over the price!" — Winkin&Blinkin
"I love these socks. They are hugs for my feet all day. I will be buying more. And more. I have never loved a sock in all my life until now. They are so worth it! I have plantar fasciitis, too, and for some reason, they just feel so nice on my feet, even though they aren't designed for that. They are just so comfy, and they are made well, too! And they don't get stinky, like other thicker socks tend to do. Only problem is my son likes to steal them from me. So I guess I need to get him some!" — DMM

Promising review: "I bought a few pairs of these socks over two years ago, and they've held up impressively well! I've worn them and washed them countless times with no problems. They haven't torn or gotten stretched out. I work in retail, and I'm on my feet all day, so these are lifesavers. Before I got these, I'd end my day with painfully swollen ankles and calves. I don't have to worry about that anymore. Definitely worth the money! They've survived several long retail shifts, and who knows how many trips through the washer and dryer." — Kat
Get them from Amazon for $8.42+ (available in individual pairs or sets of two, three, or six, and in various colors/designs).
6. Ribbed Baggu socks in bold, beautiful colors you'll want to show off! Bring on the cropped barrel jeans, because these bbs are meant to be seen.

www.amazon.com, Amazon
Promising review: "I absolutely love Fruit of the Loom socks! These socks have lasted me a very long time without losing their shape or softness. They're incredibly comfortable and feel great on my feet all day long. The no-show design is perfect for wearing with sneakers, and the tab prevents any slipping. With six pairs in a pack, they're not only durable but also a fantastic value. I highly recommend these socks for anyone looking for quality and comfort!" — Lainey

L.L. Bean
Promising reviews: "These are the best warm socks for winter! I originally purchased for a trip to Finland to wear in boots for outdoor activities, but they are now my favorite go-to sock at home during winter in Massachusetts. They keep feet so warm, and are very breathable natural fibers. There is zero itchiness, too." — Lauren
"I have several of the top brands' pairs of ragg wool socks, and I am happiest with these. They are wearable for day-to-day use — not just for hiking and outdoor activities. They keep my feet warm, are not so thick, so I can wear them with most of my casual shoes, and they wash beautifully. These will be the ones I repeat buy — in fact, I already have. Thanks, L.L. Bean." — Kay K.
Get them from L.L. Bean for $39.95 (available in sizes S–XL and in three colors).

Quince
Promising reviews: "I was in need of some socks and bought these only because they seemed like a good deal. Wow, did these exceed my expectations. They have a small amount of compression but aren't too snug; they work for casual and work pants. They last all day and don't 'deflate' like many socks can after a long day. Highly recommend." — JB

Get a pack of four from Quince for $24.90 (available in sizes XS–S and M/L and in four colors).

Aritzia
Promising reviews: " Best. socks. ever. I've been wearing these socks consistently for years and they are some of the best out there. The best part is that they don't stretch out — even after years of wearing and washing. I talk about how much I love these socks all the time and I stand by that." — Ellie

www.amazon.com, Amazon
Promising reviews: "I have ordered these twice now. I wear these socks for work and I walk 20,000+ steps a day. Having a sock that is breathable, thin, and feels comfortable on my feet is super important. These are exactly that. It has taken repeated wears and washes to get my first hole. When I do finally get a hole, it's always in the toe area, never the sole. They also give the appearance of a dress sock, so you can wear these with ballet shoes and slacks. 10/10 recommend if you are looking for a light but durable sock." — Natasha
"These are great socks for the price. I have large calves and really have a hard time buying socks that don't cut off my circulation. So I end up buying ankle socks that freeze me out in the winter. These fit nicely and go up halfway over my calves." — Meleetaylor
Get a six-pack from Amazon for $9.90 (available in sizes 6–9 and 8–12 and in six color/print combinations).

Nike
Promising reviews: "Absolutely the most comfortable socks I've bought in ages." — Debs
"I ended up getting a second pack cause I like them so much. They're very comfortable and don't fall down my heels like others do. Bit more vibrant than just black/white trainer socks and feel like they won't get holes in as soon. Had them for months now wearing constantly and no issues." — Andy
Get a three-pack from Nike for $22 (available in sizes S–XL and in eight color combinations).
15. An affordable set of moisture-wicking athletic socks one BuzzFeed writer swears by — and she runs 25+ miles a week!
Amazon
Here's what BuzzFeeder Emma Lord has to say:
"I have been buying a new set of these every year since 2020, and they have kept my VERY blister- and chafing-prone feet snug and moisture-wicked on every single long run. They've essentially phased out any of my other socks, because they're extremely comfortable to boot. As a runner who often clocks in 25+ miles a week, I cannot recommend these socks enough."
Promising review:"These socks are designed perfectly for running socks. The bottoms and toes are thick, the tops are thin, the lower heel is reinforced, the heel top has a tab that provides extra cushion on the Achilles where some shoes like to wear into you. The size is true to fit. I've purchased many packs of these and they are the best I've tried." — SmokeyBear
Get a pack of six from Amazon for $16.95+ (available in nine color combos and sizes S–XL).
16. And some sheer Y2K Sock Candy crews if you're the type of person who loooooves to accessorize and socks are no exception! Pair your maximalist pick of choice with heels, clogs, creepers — you name it — and they'll instantly add a pop of personality to any outfit.

34 Budget Yard Upgrades That'll Make A Big Difference
A pack of solar-powered garden lights to turn your yard into a wind-powered light show. They charge during the day and glow at night, no plugs or switches required. An outdoor rug for an instant (and cheap!) way to make your outdoor space look pulled together. The bold floral print brings the color, it folds up when you don't need it, and it costs less than a round of drinks. Promising review: "Love this outdoor rug and it's reversible. White where the yellow is on this side. I love it ... the yellow is a beautiful, bright color. Just magical." —BarbGet it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in three colors and three sizes). Or a geometric black and white outdoor rug so chic it'll instantly transform your backyard into a scene straight out of The White Lotus. Not only does it add a touch of pizzazz to your outdoor space, but it's also made from durable materials designed to withstand the elements. Hauteloom is a small business in Georgia that sells rugs for the review: "Delivered exactly as described. This is a really beautiful outdoor rug that adds coziness and pop to my deck. I put heavy items around the perimeter of the rug for a day to help flatten the edges. Great price for a great quality rug." —Amazon CustomerGet it from Amazon for $35+ (available in 15 sizes and three colors). A fade-resistant outdoor umbrella for relaxing without worrying about harmful UV rays. (But remember to always wear sunscreen when your skin's exposed to the sun!) It's got a diameter of 7.5 feet, which can provide shade for a small table and three or four chairs. Note: The umbrella stand is not included, but this is a good one if you need one. Promising review: "This umbrella was perfect and met my needs. I live in a condo and needed a way to shade the balcony from the intense morning sun. This worked really well. The setup was easy. The crank works well ,and the tilt is easy to do." —DanielleGet it from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in 15 colors and patterns).

You get over 30,000 seeds (!!!) across 23 varieties, so even if half of them ghost you, you'll still end up with a bloom-filled backyard. Seed Needs is a family-owned small business in Michigan that makes seed packets. Promising review: "I bought this package hoping to attract butterflies. It did not disappoint. I have the opposite of a green thumb, and this was super easy. I couldn't tell you the names of any flowers, but we have at least six different types. I overseeded a smaller area, so I will probably make the area larger or only do half the seeds next year. We can go outside at any time and see our beautiful flowers and SO many butterflies! 10/10" —Tesa TaylorGet it from Amazon for $5+ (available in four mixes and two sizes). An inflatable pool for taking a dip whenever you please. No packing a bag and heading to the local pool required. It has a built-in bench and a couple of cupholders, too!

It's heavy-duty help for the kind of stain that you thought was permanent. Promising review: "I went in skeptical, I'm not going to lie. We had grease spilled on our brand-new paver patio. The grease had been sitting for a few weeks, and I saw an ad for this stuff. I ordered it to try because why not? Well, I'll be damned because this took the spots right off! No evidence we ever spilled anything! I'd buy it again." —SusanGet it from Amazon for $17.97. A three-piece wicker chair and table set for under $100 that doesn't look like it came from the dusty clearance corner of a big-box store. You get two cushioned chairs, a glass-top table, and the undeniable satisfaction of leveling up your outdoor space without blowing your budget. Some bamboo wind chimes to bring some zen vibes to your outdoor space. When it moves, the bamboo produces deep, soothing tones that'll blend nicely with nature's soundtrack. No batteries, no wires, just peaceful background music you didn't have to find via a playlist. Promising review: "Was actually a little bigger than I expected to be for the price. Beautiful and well worth the money. Sounds beautiful." —Ashleigh Yates Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in two sizes). Or a set of solar wind chimes for bringing a little glow and gentle sound to your outdoor space after dark. The charge during the day, then kicks on automatically at night with soft, color-changing light. Promising review: "Ok so I absolutely LOVE this! So much so I have bought two more for gifts, lol.

They are shatterproof, which I love. —D KellyGet it from Brightech on Amazon for $27.99+ (available in warm or soft light). A pack of four plant supporters because some plants just need extra help staying upright. Bonus points because the metal is powder-coated green, which camouflages well. A set of metal hanging flower pots so you can have fresh flowers or herbs, regardless of whether you have a plot of dirt to grow them in. Each set includes 10 planters, so you can plant different types of flowers, herbs, and other greenery to really make a big visual impact. A colorful three-piece patio set if you want a cozy place to enjoy your morning cup of joe or a meal al fresco. The bright color will create a nice focal point for your outdoor space.

My friends and neighbors love the bright yellow." —Judith J. Get it from Amazon for $109.99+ (available in five colors). Or a three-piece folding wood bistro set that comes with the cushions. This is such a timeless look; you can put this anywhere and it's sure to impress. Promising review: "I recently moved and have a small front patio. The rules of the complex are neutral as far as furniture is concerned. And so I spent forever looking for something that would fit the color scheme, plus be cute and comfortable. I am so so happy with this purchase. The table and chairs are not only a good size, but they are tall! I myself am almost 6 foot tall, and to not have to lean over with a patio set is really cool.

The color is vibrant, hasn't faded, and the loops are well-stitched. The sail has also fared well in winds, thunderstorms, monsoon rain, and the brutal heat of Vegas. Shade is wonderful and one can definitely feel the temperature difference from full sun to being under this sail. The look and feel compliments our pool area and will certainly be purchasing an additional one." —VHC MediaGet it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in a variety of sizes and 12 colors/patterns).

They're waterproof, they charge themselves (bless), and they'll make your stairs look like the runway your guests deserve. Promising review: "Where I live, it's so dark and I have no outside electricity off my screened-in deck. I wanted lights for my stairs for safety and found these lights, which work and look great! They come with everything you need to fasten them to the stairs so they don't fall off as well. I even bought extra and tested them in the event that the ones that are currently outside get damaged for any reason, and they are no longer sold. Definitely recommend for the price, nice and bright, and easy installation. Plus, they last all night long!" —BrookeGet it from Amazon for $30.99+ (available in warm or cool white light and six pack sizes).

Entire tray is 10" x 20" x 5". Recommended for use with a heat mat to promote germination.

Each cell is sturdy and well-designed, ensuring proper airflow and drainage to promote healthy root development. The included greenhouse dome helps retain moisture and warmth, promoting optimal germination and seedling growth. Incredibly user-friendly, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced gardeners alike. The included growing medium is pre-fertilized and ready to use, eliminating the need for additional soil amendments and saving time during the planting process. Highly recommend." —Blondie16Get it from Amazon for $19.99. And a pack of the 20 most popular vegetable seeds to basically turn your vegetable beds into your own organic produce market.

The slatted acacia wood and crisp cushions give it a clean, modern vibe, and the table is juuuust the right size for a couple of cold bevvies and a snack bowl. It's proof that functional doesn't have to mean boring. Promising review: "I was looking for some nice small chairs to put on our front patio. We had camping chairs out there before and they looked awful from the street. We ordered this little set and it has been perfect. They have great street appeal. They are extremely comfortable. The cushions are firm and supportive. We easily sit out here for an hour or two now each day. Cat and human approved." —Vik Get it from Amazon for $74.99. A two-pack of solar-powered outdoor lantern lights to add just the right amount of illumination to your backyard. Because they don't require electricity, you can hang them and then not worry about maintenance. Promising review: "My goodness, I did not expect to love these lanterns as much as I do. They are very, very good quality and display lots of light. I hung both of them between my small patio and English garden, and they provided enough light for both areas. I received them late afternoon, so they got about four hours in the sun. At 9 p.m., both came on like clockwork. I got up at 3 a.m. to check if they were still on, and they were as bright as ever. They are so dang cute and unique in my yard. I will be buying more. Love, Love, Love them." —Dog TailorGet it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in three styles).

An outdoor inflatable ottoman so you can kick your feet up after a long day. It's fade- and water-resistant, and deflates for easy storage when not in use. Just inflate the interior pouf and stick it inside the printed, water-resistant review: "Love these! Ordered two more. The fabric is very nice and sturdy especially for outdoors. The inflatable part appears to be good quality. How to: Place inflatable inside of cover before inflating it. Do not inflate to full capacity or it will look like an inflatable and will not rest in a nice flat position. Far nicer than I imagined. They look great flanking my outdoor rattan sectional." —Cali gGet it from Amazon for $36.99 (available in 18 fabric patterns). A colorful small raised garden bed that costs less than takeout and looks like it came from a Crayola collab. It's tall enough to save your back, compact enough for small spaces, and colorful enough to count as decor. A cheerful little upgrade for anyone flirting with the idea of gardening. Promising review: "I searched all over for a planter small enough to fit on my porch. I'm so happy I came across this one. There really isn't anything out there right now that's 1. This size, and 2. This price. It's exactly what I was looking for, and I was able to plant six herbs in it. Assembly was easy but it helps if you have an extra hand to hold the pieces together. It's made out of metal and feels very sturdy. It has a drain hole, which is a plus. I highly recommend this, especially if you are limited on space." —ChristineGet it from Amazon for $45.99.

And a glassworks wind chime for adding some gorgeous color to your outdoor space. Nearly all wind chimes are metal or neutral tones — which is fine! — but it's refreshing to find an option that has a bit more flair.

All you gotta know is where the red clamp goes and where the black one goes (don't ask me, I'm literally just a girl, I'd have to TikTok it or call my dad). The flashlight also has different lighting patterns if you're alone somewhere and need someone to find you. It can jump-start all 12V common vehicles with up to 8.0L gas and 7.0L diesel engines. It can also charge more than just your phone — cameras, earbuds, watches, whatever you can connect with a USB cuz it's a power bank. It can also jump-start motorcycles, lawnmowers, trucks, passenger cars, and boats. Promising reviews: "I never bother reviewing things, but this is amazing. Bought it two months ago and thought it would be good to keep in the car. I saw someone with a dead battery in a parking lot last Friday, so I said, 'Do you want to try this? I've never used it.' Started their car immediately. I drove out of state later that night. The following morning, my car wouldn't start. What are the odds? I used this, got my car started immediately, headed to Auto Zone, and found out I had a dead battery. It saved me a lot of money because I probably would have called a tow truck and had it dropped off at a shop if I didn't have this with me. It's also cool to charge your phone or whatever with a USB. Highly recommend this." —Kevin beck"I pulled into a fast food for lunch. After lunch, my vehicle wouldn't start, so I called AAA for a tow. Upon arrival, the driver went through his procedures, including a battery test. He was using this device. I purchased one for myself, one for my son, then one for my grandson." —William H. DavisGet it from Amazon for $44.98. A 14-pack of menstrual discs that'll have you ready to toss the tampons. These babies hold the capacity of five regular-sized tampons worth of fluid, they're perfect for heavy and light periods, they're comfortable, and they help prevent odor, irritation, and dryness. You can also wear 'em overnight, during exercise, swimming, and even sex without any leaks! Reviewers are lovin 'em. Oh! Anddd, you can wear it for up to 12 HOURS!!Promising review: "So my period ended yesterday, and I only used these Softdiscs the whole time. This was my first time trying anything besides tampons and pads. I love them; they are much better than tampons and didn't leak once. I always leak on day one or two with tampons. The removal is a little messy, so do it over a toilet or in the shower, but the more you do it, the easier it gets, and you'll figure out how to make it less messy. I also had sex with it; I know that's the question for most. My husband said it felt weird, but he still had no issues finishing. No leaks during sex because it's suctioned onto the cervix area. These are a must-buy. I'll never go back to tampons." —Tiffany"Comfortable, discrete, stays in place, and easy to remove. Much gentler and easier to use than any other cup I've used before. I can keep it in for a full 12-hour shift as a nurse and not leak. Have also used when intimate, and mess-free!" —Joel Ter WeeGet a 14-pack from Amazon for $13.94. A pair of Paris Hilton nonslip silicone oven mitts because it just makes sense. I mean, oven mitts that say "that's hot," the *iconic* Y2K Paris Hilton phrase?! AND THEY'RE PINK?!? Perfection. They can withstand heat up to 475 degrees!Promising review: "I wasn't expecting much of these beyond a cute color and print, but they're incredible quality. Very heat resistant, great grippy design, and the inside is soooo soft! Now THAT'S HOT!" —KGet them from Amazon for $14.99 (available in two styles). A pet dryer box for cats up to 20 pounds and dogs up to 15 pounds. It has hundreds of ventilation holes and built-in safety temperature control to prevent your fur babe from over heating. It also has a lil' window so you can stick your hand in and give your pet some comforting rubs if they're freaking out in there. Plus it's quiet and will dry your little furry one super fast. Promising review: "We had done extensive research before deciding on this product for our new puppy. This is really a great investment. The puppy remained calm throughout and was thoroughly dried from head to tail. The side access panel is such a good feature to reassure your pet if needed. It's also a good way for us to check on the dryness of the fur without having to open the main door. This is a must have for pet owners! The only thing I will add is that since our puppy is super small, it works really well. I think the size can be a limitation for bigger pets." —CattGet it from Amazon for $398.99. How to Be More Shrek: An Ogre's Guide to Life because the fifth movie in the franchise drops in December of 2026 so we've got until then to brush up on our swamp etiquette. I mean, there's seriously some quality advice in there — "I'm an ogre. And I'm not going to apologize for acting like one." Period! Words to live by honestly. That and "what are you doing in my swamp?!" A lil' dumpling light here to make your nights cozier and days brighter with an ambient glow and his cutie litto face. And he's squishy! Don't you just wanna snuggle him?! Unfortunately, the little bamboo steamer is not included, but it's cool, this cutie doesn't need one to be absolutely adorable. He automatically shuts off after an review: "I love this thing so much. It's a lot bigger than I honestly expected! Perfect lil' night-light to take around when I can't be bothered to hit a light switch, and it isn't so bright that it's hard to look at. I'm tempted to create a little collection." —Sophie it from Smoko for $20. A foldable exercise bike because you'd *love* a Peloton, but where the heck is it gonna go in your small apartment? It supports up to 300 pounds and you can pair it to the app for trainer-led workouts and vitrual scenic tours, and to track your progress. And then after you've crushed your workout, fold it up and shove it int the closet! Promising review: "I love it! I get my workout in while watching my TV shows. One episode and I have cycled for 16 miles!! I love that I can change the resistance levels. For a stationary bike, this one has some really great extra features. I can tone my legs and arms at the same time. The seat is comfortable for the most part, but when sitting on anything for too long you tend to feel the pressure in your muscles (glutes to be exact). The back plate helps some, but not when you lean forward and hold the handle bars. It's pretty accurate on the readings for my BPM's. I use a smartwatch and they are pretty close in readings. I do hear squeaking now since I set it up and have ridden for over 100 miles total. I know I need to possibly tighten the screws on the front to alleviate most of the noise. It's easy to store away, but it is also a little heavy to lift if you don't lift much. Great bike for the price. I'm totally happy with my purchase. I would definitely refer this bike to my friends and family. I already suggested it to my co-workers, so that we can start a cycle class together." —MsAngieGet it from Amazon for $177.49+ (available in three colors/styles). A set of mini cheese boards so you can continue to remind all of your guests that you are indeed the host with the most. Everyone can have their very own little charcuterie spread, so fancy!

It'll tell you your ruling planet and element, gemstones, and totem so this is def a candle jar you'll wanna keep forever. Promising review: "I was curious about my astrological information and I love scented candles, so I bought one for myself. Now that I know it's really good quality, smells great and comes in a pretty box, I'll buy some for gifts :).The reading on the back was accurate! Now I'm excited to learn more about my 'stones' and use my daily affirmation. Love it!" — it from Amazon for $39 (available in 365 birthdates). A Disney princess color-by-number coloring book that'll literally take over your life. Start thinking of excuses as to why you can't go out now, cuz this'll make you wanna be home with snacks and wine coloring every night. I have three of these coloring books (this one is on my wishlist), and I'm obsessed with themmmm. I kept seeing them on TikTok and had to have them. Pro tip: grab some paint pens (these are the ones I bought). They make all the difference, and that's how the coloring pages end up looking so good. If you love coloring as a little *me time relaxation* you should totes treat yourself. I have no regrets and plan to buy basically every single one of these coloring books. But for now, I'm loving the three I have (check 'em out — 1 and 2).Promising review: "I was nervous about this book, but it was the best coloring book I've ever owned. There are little lines that look like someone drew them in, but they come pre-filled in because the area is so tiny. The book's quality is amazing, super thick, very well-made. I use acrylic paint markers and they don't bleed through the paper and make the photos really pop! Overall, will be buying more books!" —SamGet it from Amazon for $34.69. A unicorn-head squirrel feeder so you can do good by the animals and give the little critters some snacks *and* get a good laugh out of it. Win-win situation, really. A little tabletop flip-through Instax pic frame so you can display all the cute polaroid pictures you take. I mean, you take all those fun handheld pics just to shove 'em in a drawer? I think not. It holds up to 28 photos so you can flip through memories and feel all nostalgic. Get it from Urban Outfitters for $20. A copy of Murdle, Volume 1 that'll have you spending your days feeling like Olivia Benson. If you feel like you were a detective in your past life, now's your time to shine and solve these murder mystery-themed logic puzzles. Cue the Law & Order: SVU *dun-dun* sound. An Oclean electric toothbrush with an interactive touchscreen that gives 👏 you 👏 feedback 👏 on what areas you missed by displaying a set of teeth on the little screen. If the area is red, you gotta brush a bit more. And if you download the app, you'll get a personalized brushing plan and report. This baby is definitely top tier. It comes with a charger and wall mount and is compatible with Apple Health!I just got this, and I'm obsessed. First and foremost, it's stunning and sleek and looks much better than my other electric toothbrush. I don't plan to throw my old toothbrush away yet, but that's only because I have a couple of toothbrush heads left, and I'm frugal, so I'm gonna use 'em up. But as soon as I'm out of the toothbrush heads, my Oral-B one goes in the garbage. My mouth has never felt cleaner, and the vibration is super gentle. Use this and then use their water flosser, and I swear you'll feel like you just left a dentist cleaning. I haven't had the chance to download the app and all that jazz yet simply because I'm a busy gworl but as soon as I get a day where I'm less busy I will. This ensures you're cleaning every itty bitty part of your teeth. I am loving it so review: "The toothbrush handle features a color touch screen that allows you to choose between Morning Gentle and Night Clean, as well as the ability to set custom modes using the Oclean Care App. What's even more interesting is the reward system that encourages users to develop good brushing habits. Achieve 360-degree visual cleaning without any blind spots, unlike ordinary electric toothbrushes that cannot sense missed areas and can create dead spots over time. The toothbrush comes with a blind zone reminder that alerts you when you score below 80 points, prompting you to make up for the missed areas. Ordinary electric toothbrushes do not have this feature, which can lead to bacteria build-up in the long run. The toothbrush provides an in-app brushing report, making brushing data clearly visible." —LittledeeGet it from Oclean for $99.99 (available in four colors). A nostalgic DoodleBob pen holder so that you aren't searching for a writing utensil at your desk when it's time to take notes. You'll be saying "Meyohimeyoi!" all day. *Giggles like SpongeBob*. A car visor extender for us shorties because pulling the car visor down alone DOESN'T DO A DARN THING TO BLOCK THE SUN. IDK about you, but I've considered a booster seat a few times. Well, I guess, no need for that with this little heaven sent baby available, huh? Promising review: "Driving to and from work has been a pain lately, even with sunglasses on. Being short, my regular car visor was not shielding the low sun. This shield cuts the glaring rays without inhibiting my vision. Perfect." —KimGet it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors). A hair identifier spray that'll make dermaplaning a whole lot easier. You may also be mortified that you have so much peach fuzz you never knew was there, but at least you'll no longer *over* shave or miss a spot. Plus, it'll help keep your skin moisturized and protected while you shave. A "Grievance Journal" — aka a "burn book for the discerning misanthrope" with 52 prompts for venting and 52 ~dark humor-kinda~ jokes sprinkled throughout. If you're all *to hell with toxic positivity, today pissed me off* you've come to the right place, my friend. If watching Inside Out has taught us anything, it's to allow ourselves to feel our emotions, including anger. Grab this and let it all out. Some "Coochy" shaving cream that'll condition and moisturize your skin, and help you get a super smooth shave. It's gentle on sensitive skin, can help prevent razor bumps and ingrown hairs, and it smells like cake! Promising review: "This stuff is like pure magic!!!! And for $26, I feel like this bottle is massive. Plus, when you use it to shave literally anywhere a little goes a very long way, so this bottle will definitely be lasting me a long time! The scent is immaculate — smells so good I could eat it! It's also super moisturizing and I've noticed since using it that I've had a lot less razor bumps on my inner thighs! I use it to shave everywhere, not just the 'coochie!'' —Summer RogersGet it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in four sizes). A stink-blocking balm for anyone who's sensitive to funky smells. If you gag at everyday, unavoidable smells like diapers and taking out garbage, you'll fall in love with this quicker than Ariel fell in love with Prince Eric. It's made by a woman-owned small biz established by Jennifer, an RN who made the product for healthcare professionals like herself who desperately needed the balm under the nose and outside the nostrils, and repeat whenever necessary! Read more about aromatherapy and stress and tension at Johns review: "I am taking anatomy this year and, after my first dissection, decided the smell of decaying rats was unbearable. I got in time for my practical and it masked the smell perfectly! Would def recommend to anyone dealing with pungent smells." —h. KrakeGet it from the StinkBalm Store on Amazon Handmade for $8.99. A flat hair clip so that you can give your neck a little rest and actually lean your head back on the couch. You'll still get the cute claw clip look, but with the ability to get some dang relief while serving looks. Promising review: "I was getting so tired of the headaches that claw clips gave me, as well as the daily annoyance of not being able to lean my head back. I hated having the clips bang on the headrest in the car. These are perfect! They allow you to put your head back in the car, on the couch, or in bed. Plus, they really hold your hair, even if it's thin like mine. Cute colors as well! Get these!!" —Jeanne JohnsonGet a six-pack from Amazon for $8.49+ (available in 20 colors/styles).

It's stuffed with pistachio cream and a shredded phyllo dough called "kataifi" and the combo is so delicious, you may shed a tear taking your last bite. Y'all, is it me, or does it look like a Reptar bar? Promising reviews: "I'm not a huge chocolate fan, but I'm a sucker and had to try it to see what all the hype is about. Well, it's completely justified. It's amazing. The chocolate is excellent quality and so creamy and smooth. The pistachio adds this nutty flavor, and there is a wonderful crunch. It's good." —Tami A."I was anxious to try this since I've seen the Dubai chocolate bar go viral on TikTok. It was very delicious trying it for the first time. It was slightly melted due to the heat during transport, but I put it in the fridge for a few minutes before trying and it was amazing. If you're anxious to try it without going through the trouble of making it yourself, then try this." —AleshaGet it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in a two-pack). A "Born to yap" downloadable digital print that matches your vibe perfectly. IDK about y'all, but ever since I was a child I knew that I wanted to talk a whole lot all of the time.

Highly recommend for a glowing complexion!" —MarisaGet a four-pack from Amazon for $19 (available in three styles and a 16-pack). A ceramic strawberry milk vase — the cutest way possible to display those a few of those flowers you picked up at Trader Joe's.

I had a boil, cyst, idk? — on my armpit, and nothing would help it drain until I tried this stuff. Like magic. Put it on at night since it should not be used under a bandage per instructions, but maybe be aware that you might bleed if you have a boil, bite, or something else blood-filled that needs to pop. Recently, I had a badly inflamed ingrown hair on my leg. I could seriously barely walk. I was sobbing uncontrollably in pain. I had tried Neosporin with pain relief, lidocaine ointment, you name it. Nothing was helping. It was days before my wedding, and I seriously didn't think I could walk down the aisle in the state I was in. My fiancé remembered I had this little gem in the bathroom and suggested I try it. I was desperate and in excruciating pain, so I figured, why not? Woke up the next morning with blood all over my leg, inside my pants, etc, but the bump(s) had drained, and I could walk again. This stuff literally saved my wedding." —Amazon CustomerGet it from Amazon for $13.98+ (available in two sizes and in multipacks).

So basically, it's like, three products in one. Your guests, when they come over and you hand them a *personal* charcuterie board: The reviews for this post have been edited for length and clarity.

King Charles Steps Out with Surprising Date Just One Day After Prince William Does the Same
King Charles has had a packed schedule lately—from military engagements to traditional ceremonies, he's been all over the place this week. And while he attended most of these events solo, there was one appearance that caught a little extra attention—not just for the flowers, but for his surprising royal companion. Spoiler: it wasn't Queen Camilla. On June 7, King Charles stepped out for the Royal Windsor Flower Show at Windsor Great Park and joining him for the outing was none other than Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh—his sister-in-law. The pair looked cheerful and relaxed as they mingled with attendees and admired the floral displays. Buckingham Palace shared a few snaps from the event, showing the King looking polished in a classic grey suit with a cream tie and crisp white shirt. Duchess Sophie, meanwhile, brought a welcome pop of color in a blue floral dress, paired with a navy blazer and a variation of her go-to wedge heels. The palace captioned the photos: 'The King, as Patron, and The Duchess of Edinburgh were at the Royal Windsor Flower Show. The theme for this year's show, held at Windsor Great Park, is 'Patterns in Nature,' inspired by His Majesty's book Harmony: A New Way of Looking at Our World.' This actually marked Sophie's second surprise royal pairing of the week. Just one day earlier, on June 6, she was spotted she was spotted accompanying Prince William at the Royal Cornwall Show. And once again, her outfit quietly stole the show: a blush pink Vince silk blouse, a luxe toffee suede skirt by Paige and knee-high leather boots. She finished the look with a green velvet Sophie Habsburg handbag and gold Giulabarella hoops—perfectly blending countryside chic with royal elegance. Sophie's been everywhere lately—and I'm kind of loving this new royal duo energy. Want all the latest entertainment news sent right to your inbox? Click here.
