Yeah, even your bathroom will look cute by the end of this.
1. Cottagecore linen curtains you can hang on your open cabinets, above your kitchen sink, small windows, or just about anywhere else that'll make you feel like Snow White baking a scrumptious apple pie. 🥧
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "These pleated short curtains are the perfect touch for my kitchen! They add just the right amount of charm and elegance while letting in natural light. The pleats give them a polished, tailored look, and the quality of the fabric is fantastic — lightweight yet durable." — Liza
Get two panels from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in eight sizes and 10 colors).
2. A vibrant duvet cover set that will bring some ooh la la to your bedding and give your room an instant facelift. Why spend $150+ on a Pottery Barn set when reviewers claim this one is even better???
Amazon
Promising review:"I usually buy bedding from Pottery Barn because of the excellent quality. I did, however, fall in love with this pattern and decided to take a chance for the value, especially since the inside of the duvet cover comes with loops to attach to the comforter. The duvet set arrived in one day and was nicely packaged. The quality is excellent, and the pattern is beyond my expectations. This is better than Pottery Barn!" — LA
Get it from Amazon for $59.99+ (available in five sizes and 43 patterns).
3. Or a gingham or pom-pom duvet set to bring a bit of pastel prettiness to your bedroom. Hellooooo, spring!!!! 🌸🌷🌼
Amazon
The set comes with a cover and two pillowcases. Grab an affordable comforter here.
Promising review: "I chose this duvet cover for my daughter's room because she wanted a lighter color comforter, but our dogs sleep in her bed, so I wanted to be able to wash it easily. The pom-poms are small but a cute addition. The duvet cover is on the thinner side and soft. It has a zipper and four corner ties. Happy with this purchase and the price." — Kim
Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (available sizes twin–king and eight styles).
4. A set of two buttery-soft satin pillowcases that will look ah-maz-ing on your bed and are gentle on hair, meaning you're less likely to experience tangles or frizz no matter how much you toss and turn. And no, you don't need to spend as much as you would buying the popular Slip pillowcases to get a similar look.
Amazon
Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Maitland Quitmeyer says about it: This is my go-to satin pillowcase. I have two Slip pillowcases, and several of these, and actually, the Bedsure ones wash up much nicer and retain an incredibly silky smooth feel after dozens of trips through the laundry. They're the only ones I'll buy going forward, and I recommended them to my mom, and now she's in love with them, too!
Promising reviews: "I bought these cases to match a new sheet set. I previously had bought much more expensive brands to match other sheets but I love the Bedsure brand of products and wanted to try these out. Arguably, they're softer than my more expensive ones! They did arrive very wrinkled, but a quick wash and dry, and they're shiny and wrinkle-free. I like the envelope closure a lot more than the competing brands' zip closure. Highly recommend!" — Hannah Watkins
Get a set of two from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in standard, queen, king, and body pillow sizes and 39 colors).
5. A gorgeous linen-scented reed diffuser because those plug-in-the-wall scent diffusers ruin your whole home aesthetic — so why not get something pretty and amazingly scented? Plus, it comes with real preserved baby's breath (so freakin' gorgeous) and eight pure cotton sticks so you can adjust precisely how much aroma is released.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I love the aesthetic of it and the smell is amazing! I bought two more as soon as I saw how nice this was. The quality feels so expensive and luxurious that it just had me in a chokehold, and I definitely love the look." — Isabell Thao
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in four styles and 26 scents).
6. A set of room-darkening velvet curtains so you can get an uninterrupted night of sleep without those pesky rays of light waking you from your deep slumber. Plus, they're absolutely gorgeous so you can have a glam look to your bedroom without sacrificing functionality.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"Purchased these for my studio, which is in an old mill. I wanted them for their insulating properties more than to block out the light because my studio loses a lot of heat at night due to its enormous windows. The curtains/drapes work great for both — I am especially pleased with how well they help keep the space from losing heat! Before having the curtains the space would lose about 8 degrees in temperature overnight (which in the winter is a significant amount, especially in the northeast). Now, with the curtains, the space no longer loses heat overnight! It is now so nice to go into my studio in the morning and find it still toasty warm!" — Placeholder
Get them from Amazon for $36.99+ (available in five sizes and 14 colors).
7. A set of brushed brass cabinet pulls because frankly, you've been thinking about splurging to get all new cabinets, and why do that when simply changing the handles will basically elevate the whole space?? Luxury at its finest. ✨
Promising review:"If you have any doubts in your mind about these handle pulls...don't!!! They are absolutely stunning in person. They are heavy and have a luxe weighted feel and look to them. The brushed brass gleams the perfect amount. I truly get so happy every time I walk into my kitchen. These handle pulls make it magnificent. They're like jewelry for your kitchen. I couldn't be happier with them." — Ravi S
Get a set of 10 five-inch pulls from Amazon for $58.82.
8. Waterproof, stain-resistant faux marble adhesive you can stick right on your bathroom or kitchen walls so you can have an easy and beautiful-looking backsplash without shelling out the thousands of dollars you were expecting when you decided to upgrade your space.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
It took most reviewers less than an hour to completely revamp their desks, and it was two hours *tops* for others (depending on how much space you're redoing!). Psst: If you pick this up, check out this reviewer's great installation tips for applying it to a desk!
Promising review:"Wow, seriously love this stuff! Completely transformed the space I'm working on. I LOVE that it's shiny with a smooth finish... instantly felt luxurious, especially compared to how it looked before!" — Natalie Logan
Get it from Amazon for $4.99+ (available in 10 sizes and two colors).
9. An ultra-soft faux-fur rug that Frasier himself would wish he had to transform his father's, uh...let's say, "rugged" couch into a throne worth sitting upon. The greatest part of it all is that it doesn't shed, so you don't need to worry about white fuzz getting everywhere.
Amazon
Promising review:"My parents went to Europe and sat outside on furs like these, and now they do the same at home. They live in the mountains in Utah. They put these on their metal patio chairs and then cover themselves with a blanket outside in the winter. The faux furs keep your backside insulated, and then, topped with the blanket, they are able to have cocktail hour(s) on the deck all year long! It's honestly pretty sweet, and the dog gets her own to lie on when she's outside, too." — Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in six sizes and 11 colors).
10. Easy-to-install (they literally just stick on!) under-cabinet lighting to ensure you don't cause yourself some serious injury as you stumble your way toward the kitchen for that midnight snack. These have double-sided tape on the back for easy installation, and they're dimmable and waterproof.
www.amazon.com
These under-the-cabinet lights are battery powered and come with a remote that will allow you to power them on and off, change their intensity, and set them to be motion-activated.
Promising review:"I just remodeled my kitchen and wanted lights under my cabinets to give it a cozy feel. I wanted something easy to install but effective. These lights are great! You can adjust the brightness and can even put them on a timer so they turn off on their own after 15, 30, or 60 minutes. They come with sticky tape to attach to cabinets, but I also added sticky back Velcro, and they have stayed on perfectly. The company sent me an email offering any assistance if I should need it. I absolutely LOVE them and would recommend." — Lisa Corey
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $15.99 (also available in packs of two or six).
11. Peel-and-stick vinyl subway tile because have you seen the prices of professional-grade backsplashes lately?!?!?! You're gonna wanna avoid those contractor fees by getting this super easy, customized backsplash you can simply stick onto the wall yourself for a quick kitchen facelift.
These renter-friendly beauties are fully removable, btw! You'll just need to heat with a hair dryer to unstick the adhesive. For the full install, reviewers recommend: a level, sanding block and sandpaper, measuring tape, ruler, screwdriver to remove outlets, and utility knife or scissors.
Promising review: " These are great and easy to install. You have to cut the first section. I did put them on a textured wall and have no issues with them peeling off. I made a mistake and had to pull some of them off and they came off with no problem. They are sticky, so I did have to pull a little bit; no damage to the paint or the wall, though. You will need a VERY sharp knife and a pair of scissors. I used a metal carpenter's square as a straight edge, and it worked nicely. Nice upgrade to my little kitchen. I needed about 30 tiles, and I had to buy 40 for cuts and mistakes. You can't reuse the sheet if you pull it off. I found that if you have to cut the tiles, make sure you have the 'grout' on the cut; it makes it easier to align and hides small mistakes." — Tricia Hendrickson
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in four colors, and in dozens more designs and colors on their store page).
12. A set of cute velvet shams that feel so soft you'll want to burrow yourself in them all throughout your cozy night at home. They're also super easy to swap out when you inevitably get the itch to redecorate your room (for the seventh time this year).
Also, if you can't find an exact measurement match for your throw pillows, you can go down a couple of inches. The pillows will look overstuffed, like you spent a couple of hundos on them.
Promising review:"It's easy to see why these affordable yet high-quality throw pillow covers are a best seller. They are incredibly soft and comfortable, and they seem durable and well-made. What a simple and inexpensive way to change up your decor!" — Erika V.
Get the two-pack from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in 41 colors and nine sizes).
13. Or a set of cozy faux-fur throw pillow covers so freakin' fluffy, you'll be convinced you're cuddling up with a cloud of marshmallows. Fancy and under $20?? You'll be adding them to cart ASAP.
Amazon
These are pillow covers — not inserts. If you need an insert, you can get 'em from Amazon starting at $9.49.
Promising review: "I bought these to put on my bed, and I absolutely love, love, love them! One side has a super fluffy and soft side, and the back is surprisingly soft; it's almost like a suede feel. Be sure you have fully stuffed pillows!" — Rah Rah
Get a set of two from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in six sizes and 18 colors).
14. A set of sophisticated cylindrical wineglasses perfect for your kitchen because, yes, even your homemade mocktail deserves to be displayed elegantly.

Sign me up.
Promising reviews:"Wow, these are stunning! I feel quite regal just holding one of these in my hand. They feel durable and will hold that (hefty) glass of wine! ;) I would definitely recommend these beautiful stemmed glasses! Very nicely packaged as well! Thank you." — TripleMRocks
"I bought these based upon reading the great reviews and I am so glad I did! They are beautiful! They were well-packed and arrived without issue. We had company over the night after I received them, and our friends commented that they loved the glasses. I will be buying more for gifts." — S. Casidy
Get a pack of four from Amazon for $34.99 (available in three styles and two set options).
15. Or a set of rainbow wineglasses to ~spring~ some merriment to your sit-back-and-sip-rosé nights. They're so cute; they're basically a piece of decor when you're not actually using them. Your book club members are gonna start hounding you for the link to these.
Amazon
The Wine Savant is a New York-based small business established in 2017 that specializes in unique, quality drinkware and accessories.
Promising review: "Love these! Wasn't ready to splurge on Estelle stemmed glasses so I got these instead. I've run them through the dishwasher once so far, and they held up fine. Glass is thin near the top, which I love in a wineglass. I would recommend!" — Tricia
Get a set of six from Amazon for $49.95.
16. A ceramic essential oil diffuser so pretty, you'll seriously think it's the expensive Vitruvi one. It's sleek, elegant, and perfect for releasing that jasmine oil you absolutely adore.
Amazon
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.
Promising reviews:"I was looking at getting the Vitruvi diffuser but stumbled across this. I'm so happy I did! This is incredible quality for half the price!" — Amazon Customer

Amazon
Seriously though, the folks who live below you will thank you for the extra cushioning for footfalls!
Promising review:"To be fair, I was quite hesitant to purchase a rug online seeing as how you can't feel the carpet. However, I took a chance and went with it, and I couldn't be happier with my decision. Not only is the carpet nice and soft, but the colors are very true to the picture. Thanks, guys, for producing a fair-priced and luxurious product!" — (ffcccdxx
Get it from Amazon for $24.48 (available in nine styles and dozens of sizes).
18. Or a boho area rug because not only is it affordable, but it's also super cute! It's easy to vacuum and has plenty of sizes to choose from, so you can have the perfect rug for your living space.
Amazon
Promising review:"This rug is a great addition to my bedroom. It's soft, easy to clean, and brings color to my room! The quality feels really nice for its price point. Only downside is the edges kind of curl up. I'm hoping they'll go away over time!" — LDros
Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in several sizes and five colors).
19. A faux-leather tissue box cover you can slip your regular ol' tissue box into to elevate your living space and finally get rid of that eyesore of cardboard. The vibes? Immaculate. ✨

1801 & Co/Etsy

Promising review: "I love it! I got it so fast after ordering and it's perfect. I love the sleek design for my small home office space. I can't function at work without a dry erase board but couldn't find any that would look nice in my office space which is in the corner of my master bedroom! Having functional office space but not LOOK like office in the bedroom is challenging but this acrylic board is PERFECT. The black pen that comes with it is very nice fine tip and erases without a trace." — Dawn Powell

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"This is the second privacy screen I've purchased from Amazon. I have an area in my garden visible from the street. The screen hides all my gardening stuff (i.e. wheelbarrow, buckets, etc.). It truly looks like the real deal!!!" — soooz
Get a roll from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in three roll sizes).
22. Some magnetic garage handles and faux windows to give your garage doors a little facelift without having to pay the price of actual carriage-style doors (which can be incredibly pricey).
www.amazon.com, Amazon
Promising review:"I've been wanting to upgrade our garage door for a long time and now I have no idea why I waited! The magnets are super strong. Purchased two sets but only used one set of 'handles,' I wasn't a fan of how close I had to place each set next to each other with the narrow spacing on the door itself. Paired with the magnetic 'windows,' it looks like a brand-new door!" — MrsPirate
Get them from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in five sets and variations).
23. A Baroque mirror your friends won't believe you didn't spend plenty of $$$$ on at some high-end antique store. And is it just me, or does it pretty much look exactly like the $500+ Anthropologie Primrose mirror?! 👀
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"This mirror is gorgeous and very well-made. It feels heavier than I expected, so I used a 3M Claw to hang it, and it's definitely secure. Looks exactly like the picture. I wanted the Anthropologie Primrose mirror but couldn't stomach the price tag, even with deep discounts from their home outlet pop-up. This is an excellent [alternative], so definitely worth it." — Jillian Coneys
"I was looking for an inexpensive [version] of *the* Anthropologie mirror for my mantle. Did lots of searching and review reading, and this seemed like the best bang for your buck. It's so nice! It's heavy and sturdy (not chintzy) and looks great in my living room. The flourish on top is tasteful, and the antique gold color really does make it look vintage." — Eliza
Get it from Amazon for $85.99+ (available in 10 sizes and five finishes).
24. A set of amber soap dispensers that will really spruce up your adult washroom and hide that 75¢ liquid soap you got on clearance — because nothing says "fancy" like having an aesthetic vibe to your bathroom.

Get a two-pack from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in three different pump styles).
25. A gold watering can and mister to double as a canister to water your plants and a cute piece of chic decor. Your neighbors will be so impressed as you go around watering your patio plants with this (instead of the regular ol' water cup you were using before).
Promising review:"This watering can is so easy to use, and it holds a lot more water than you would think by the size. I also love the cap that comes on the end of the spout — a great way to avoid spills!! Appreciate the pretty mister that comes with it, too. Both look very nice on the shelf where I house my plants in front of a window." — MC Phillips
Get it from Amazon for $26.99 (available in three colors).
26. A TV cord cover that you can stick right on your wall so the highways of cords you've got going on don't even show. With all those wires hidden from view, you can focus on entertaining your guests rather than the knots of cables marring your aesthetic living space. That, my people, is called ✨ fancy. ✨
Promising review: "This is the perfect solution for hiding a cord! It looks like it is just a part of the baseboard. Mine is covering a cable wire only, but I think they are big enough to hide more than one cord if needed. I didn't cut mine, and I bought two. You can tell where the two meet if you look closely. However, I do not think anyone would notice. I can't believe I let our cable cord sit across the floor for this long. I wish I would have found these sooner!" — Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $19.79+ (available in three sizes, packs of two, and in five colors).
27. And a flat outlet plug because you're tired of the jumbled heap of cords hanging out in plain sight by that exposed outlet. Hide the tangled wires and bulging plugs with this sleek cover so your home looks like it just lept out of a catalog.

Get it from Amazon for $17.47.

Promising review: "These are so cute and very easy to set up. I have my hairclips and scrunchies in them. I love that they are stackable, so they don't take up too much space. They're about the same size as my hand, so they're relatively small. They're good for storing little things like mini hand lotions and hand sanitizer. If you're thinking about getting them, I highly recommend them!" — Dog_Mom
Get a pack of six from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in two other sizes and six colors).
32. An absorbent floral dish drying mat to protect your precious counter from any delicious stains in the cutest way possible. Not only is it super adorable, but it'll soak up those milk splatters that the wayward frother left behind in its wake.
www.amazon.com
The top layer is made of absorbent PU leather, so you can simply rinse or wipe it clean! It also has an anti-skid rubber backing to prevent sliding.
Promising reviews:"I like that I can wipe this mat with a wet cloth. It's water resistant, durable, and pretty!" — Miss Dee

Promising reviews:"I am very pleased with these scented drawer liners! They are perfect for my bedroom chest of drawers. The paper is heavy, and the scent is wonderful. I love it! I may buy them as gifts." — Jennifer
"This is a traditional scented drawer liner paper — the kind people used for decades before modern adhesive (plastic) papers — and it's beautiful. I purchased the royal bloom scent, and it smells like fresh pears. The paper comes in a tight roll, and I suggest reverse rolling or laying it flat and weighing it down for a night before installing it. I very much prefer non-adhesive paper like this because it is easy to install and replace, but also because it is old-school elegance." — Trillium
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in three patterns).

Promising review: "These brass bow knobs are so beautiful and work perfectly with the dresser that I bought for my baby girl's nursery! I was worried that they would be too small or that the quality would be lacking, so I paid three times the price for a set of backup knobs from Crate & Kids that I will now be returning. I'm just a dummy and ordered only six knobs when I actually needed 12. Good thing the seller offers free one-day shipping! Once all the knobs are changed out, the dresser will truly look Pinterest-worthy! :)" — WAR

Jeff Bezos' Mom Enrolled Him in Football Because He Struggled With Other Kids — 'Barely Made the Weight Limit' But 2 Weeks Later, He Was Captain

You can only tell the "Bezos started Amazon in his garage" story so many times before it starts to feel like a corporate bedtime story. But long before the garage and the buff billionaire energy, Jeff Bezos was just a scrawny Texas kid who, according to his mom, "barely made the weight limit" to play youth football. That detail — along with most of what follows — comes from "The Inner Jeff Bezos," a 1999 Wired profile that dug into the early years of the now-spacefaring mogul. Don't Miss: Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing — Deloitte's fastest-growing software company partners with Amazon, Walmart & Target – Jackie Bezos said her son wasn't always the most socially comfortable kid. To help him fit in, she and her husband signed him up for the high-stakes world of Texas football — and expected the worst. "I thought he was going to get creamed out there," she admitted. But just two weeks later, her undersized son was named defensive captain. Why? He was the only kid who could remember all the plays — not just his own, but the entire squad's. Of course, he was. That same brainpower showed up in more geek-approved ways, too. In elementary school, Bezos enrolled in the Vanguard program at Houston's River Oaks Elementary, a magnet school for academically advanced students. The Wired profile also mentioned how Julie Ray's 1977 book "Turning on Bright Minds" followed 12-year-old Jeff — pseudonym "Tim" — through a typical school day, describing him as "friendly but serious," and "possessed of general intellectual excellence." He was, notably, "not particularly gifted in leadership," though that might come as a surprise to his future employees and rocket engineers. Trending: Maximize saving for your retirement and cut down on taxes: . But if he wasn't a born leader, he was a born sci-fi addict. Once his school got access to a mainframe computer, Bezos and friends would spend hours playing a primitive Star Trek game, hunting down cloaked Klingons on a three-by-three matrix. Forget flag football — this is what real future billionaires were doing in the '70s. By high school, Bezos had his eyes on the stars — literally. While other kids dreamed of becoming astronauts, he told people he planned to be a space entrepreneur. "He said the future of mankind is not on this planet, because we might be struck by something, and we better have a spaceship out there," recalled the father of his high school girlfriend, Rudolf Werner. That might've sounded like sci-fi-fueled delusion back then — the kind of thing a teenager says after too many NASA brochures and not enough sleep — but Bezos wasn't bluffing. He attended a high school space initiative at NASA's Huntsville facility in Alabama, where his plans for a future among the stars started taking shape. According to his science teacher Bill McCreary, "Oh, he had ideas about space promotion!"Those ideas weren't about being the next astronaut on a shuttle. Bezos wanted to build the shuttle. Run the launchpad. Own the orbital infrastructure. And if you've seen Blue Origin's New Shepard rocket or his statements about colonizing space, well — that wasn't just a passing teenage obsession. It was a business plan in beta. Even today, he hasn't let go of the big vision. When reminded in the Wired interview of his youthful warnings that Earth was vulnerable to extinction-level disasters, Bezos chuckled — but only for a second. "I wouldn't mind helping in some way," he said. "I do think we have all our eggs in one basket." Read Next: Here's what Americans think you need to be considered wealthy.

32 Affordable Swaps For Those Pricey Beauty Products You've Had Your Eye On

We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. Amazon Promising review: "I ran out of the Drunk Elephant bronzing drops, but I didn't want to spend another forty dollars, so I purchased this instead, and I am so glad I did. I like to mix it with my moisturizer or my tinted sunscreen to give me that bronzed, natural glow. This is exactly like the Drunk Elephant one and I will definitely be repurchasing." —Todd U. Get it from Amazon for $5.99. Promising review: "Better than Clinique! I bought this one on a whim but never liked the real Black Honey Almost Lipstick by Clinique, since it tends to run red on me. This shade, in my opinion, is exactly what Black Honey SHOULD be, as it looks more like Black Honey in pictures. For the price, it can't be beat, so I'm buying more." —HAC Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (also available in the pink honey version, and in a two-pack that mixes both)! Read more about nail care, including how nail strengtheners may help nails, at Mayo Clinic. Promising reviews: "My Dior nail glow ran out and I saw this brand had a [lookalike} for that. I liked this color even more... Excellent everyday, clean-looking polish. Seems stronger than Essie." —reviewer22 "Growing out my nails has always been a challenge for me; I'm guilty of biting and peeling/picking at my nails when I'm nervous. This product has completely changed my nail game. It gives my nails a hard protective coating, and the tint of pink makes even my stubby nails look professional and pretty." —Andi Get it from Amazon for $5.36. Promising reviews: "I looooove this so much. The smell is amazing, and it tends to stick around for a while, so I love getting whiffs of it throughout the day. My hair is softer and doesn't seem as frizzy as before. I put it on after washing my hair and then after it's dry. I tend to wash my hair two times a week, so I'll use it in between washes on my ends to make sure they still look nice and healthy. Great value, too; I've been using it pretty consistently since purchasing, and I've barely made a dent in it. Love it!" —Noley "Coming from someone with very coarse 4c hair.. this product is heaven-sent. Extremely satisfied. Sticking to this product and this product only from now on, lol." —Danielle Get it from Amazon for $18+ (available in two sizes, a mist style, and four other formulas). Amazon Check out a TikTok of the Magic Shaper Face Cream Palette in action. Promising review: "Best [alternative] for the Make Up For Ever HD Skin Face Essentials Longwear Full Face Cream palette that costs around $80. This one has less color options than the Make Up For Ever palette, but it's definitely the best [alternative], and for the price, it works amazingly. The blush and bronzer last hours on my skin — after setting spray, of course. I mix the two blushes on the back of my hand, and it's a good color for me. Also, I recommend warming the product on the back of your hand; that way, it's easier to blend and apply. Even without doing that, it is very easy to blend." —Lorraine Get it from Amazon for $8. The color-adaptive formula is designed so one of four shades will work on any skin tone. Promising review: "I used to use the Becca under-eye product, and this one is way better. You can sheer it out and warm it up on your hand. Don't need to use a lot, and it adds a lot of brightness under concealer." —Ariel O "Took years off my eyes! This product is so reasonably priced. I came across a TikTok promoting this and decided to take a chance since the price was super reasonable. My eyes looked brighter in a good way, and the concealer worked so well that I felt I looked younger. I got compliments from friends asking what I did differently with my makeup. I recommend it." —Monica T. Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in four shades). Promising review: "Since trying this product, I will never go back to anything else. For years, I've been using Better Than Sex by Too Faced, and I absolutely loved it. But as you know, it's at a higher price point. I was looking for a cheaper option that worked the same, if not better. I was pleasantly surprised when I came across this. For me... THIS WORKS BETTER! I've tried both the black and brown options as well as the waterproof options and [I'm] blown away by every one of them!! This is my new favorite mascara! Makes my lashes look like I had them professionally done." —chela1389 Get it from Amazon for $4.99 (available in black or brown and as a three-pack). Emma Lord / BuzzFeed Watch on TikTok as one user goes from skeptic to believer! BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord considers herself a fan: "I am not a new human to the tubing mascara game, and in fact, I readily spent $26 on the famous OG blend from Blinc every time it needed replacing. I didn't even love it for the length half as much as the fact that tubing mascara like this genuinely never smudges, but can I just say — regardless of price, the formula blows all the others I've tried out of the water. It gives me way more length and volume than other brands, slides on so much more easily, stays put ALL day, and never, ever smudges. My favorite part, though, is how gently and easily it comes off with soap and water. In the past, other mascara removals have felt rough on my lashes, but this comes off so fast that I'm like ??? was I even mascara a minute ago?? Anyway, I hesitate even writing this review because I want to gatekeep the hell out of this before it sells out, but the world needed to know. I'm a big fan of the brown shade (which is what I'm wearing above!), but it also comes in black and soft black." Get it from Amazon for $7 (available in three shades). Promising review: "I bought this and my daughter immediately tried to steal it because she thought it was the real thing. Ha! This is so easy to use and a little goes a long way. This will last for a while. And was a fraction of the price of the brand name." —Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (available in three shades). Promising review: "This stuff is no joke. I like to use one product for my full face for a quick makeup routine, as eyeshadow, blush, and highlight all at once. When I tell you I need exactly two dots for my whole face, I couldn't be more serious! It has a different, more glossy texture than a Rare Beauty blush, but the pigment is much stronger. Comes off very dewy and kind of glossy but can be made matte with powder. The only thing I will say is that if you overwork it, there can be small lifted spots, which happened to me when I first tried it because I used too much and then had to try to blend so much. Already purchased another color. Love E.l.f. makeup!" —oscar Julian zapotitla Get it from Amazon for $6.65+ (available in 12 shades). Promising review: "These are fantastic. I bought all four, and I hope they add more colors. They are giving Patrick Ta, but better, at a fraction of the cost. They really last all day individually, but if you want you can layer them for even more color saturation. The textures are great, easy application. The two pinks are very pigmented and vibrant, so go easy at first. Highly recommend." —Joan A. Get it from Amazon for $7 (available in four shades). Jenae Sitzes / BuzzFeed, Promising review: "This sunscreen is a gem. I was not expecting to love it as much as I do. I absolutely love E.l.f. products, but I rarely try their skincare. Something told me to try this. When I put it on, it gave a smooth silicone finish and feel. I was faithful to Supergoop but didn't want to spend as much as the product is listed for. I will continue to use this sunscreen; it has been one of the best I've ever tried. I've been into skincare since I was 15; I am 37, and for me to say that this product is a gold mine is rare." —Angelina S Get it from Amazon for $5+ (available in two sizes). Promising reviews: "I have used Moroccanoil for years and decided to give this a shot. This is better than Moroccanoil and I will be buying again. It keeps my hair soft and smooth even in summer humidity. Great product." —Caitlin K. "This product is a legit alternative to the Ouai hair oil. They smell identical, they feel exactly the same, and they left my hair shiny and soft. And most importantly it saved me some money for the future." —Brianna Reed Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in packs of two and four). Promising reviews: "Better than Starface!!! These stick extremely well and actually pull out and absorb the gunk. Plus, they come with soooooo many." —chey "I love these and wish they had them around when I was a teenager! I literally use them as facial decorations in addition to hiding blemishes and, my teenage son has no problem wearing them because they effectively minimize zits!!" —Monica LivaClean is a small business specializing in acne solutions and skincare. Get a pack of 240 from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in four shapes/colors and in multipacks). Promising review: "This stuff is absolutely fantastic! Don't let the low price throw you off because this can do better, in my opinion, than 'the elephant stuff'! I had those itty bitty bumps right under my bottom lip on my chin and four days after using this stuff with micro-needling, they were gone! I have always taken good care of my skin and now that I am 43, I am just now realizing that I did a better job than I thought I had. I want to KEEP doing doing good stuff for my skin but not pay a fortune. This formula has a fresh orange-like smell to it and goes on very easily with a dropper. It dries within a minute and soaks in completely. I haven't had any irritation from the product but I had been using 'the elephant stuff' with similar ingredients prior to this, so it could be my skin was used to it. Overall, I am EXTREMELY pleased with this purchase." —AudibleAddicted And SeoulCeuticals is a small biz! Get it from Amazon for $19.98+ (available in two sizes). Promising review: "This is just like the Milk Makeup Cooling Water Stick — but I like it better. It's less than half the price, the packaging is cuter, the smaller applicator makes it easy to get under my eyes — and it smells like clean water and rose petals. It's hydrating, cooling, and non-greasy. It makes you instantly look and feel more awake. Love it." —Janelle Patricia Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in a collagen formula). Promising review: "This stuff is amazing. It has light to medium coverage. It lasts all day. The oils in my skin usually breakdown foundation but this one stays in place and after a little blotting looks good as new... I just recently purchased the Fenty Eaze Drop Blurring Skin Tint in 6 and like it, but I actually prefer the Wet N Wild Tinted Hydrator better. You can buy six of these for the same price as the Fenty. I'm so happy I tried this." —Nancy Get it from Amazon for $5.47+ (available in eight shades and also in packs of two). It's formulated with hyaluronic acid and squalene for a boost of hydration! Promising reviews: "This stuff is so legit I've gone through three bottles. Adds the perfect glow to your skin! Sometimes, I use it under foundation, and sometimes, I use it solo with a bit of concealer. I will never not repurchase it for the price and how beautifully it sits on the skin. This stuff is viral for a reason!!" —mapagill "If you like Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter, this is leaps and bounds better! Just buy it. The coverage is better, [it] makes my skin have the most amazing natural glow! The colors run with a more warm/yellow undertone, which worked great for me! Spend a fraction of the price and just get it; you will be happy you did!" —Amazonreview Get it from Amazon for $11.20+ (available in 12 shades). Amazon Promising review: "Ok, so I absolutely LOVE this stuff! I tried it on a whim after hearing a few different people rave about it. I had tried a similar product from Rhode and was not really 'wowed' by it, but thought it was still a nice product. This milky toner, however, blew me away. I apply it after washing my face with my hands and gently pat it in, and it just leaves a moisturized, dewy finish. I also have recently started mixing it in with my foundation when I apply it to my makeup and it's been a game changer. Since it's winter and I live in the northeast, I have had issues with my foundation being really dry lately — this has solved it. It leaves a beautiful satin finish. For the price point, amount of product, and versatility, you just can't beat it. Will be repurchasing!" —talon12 Get it from Amazon for $14.99. Promising reviews: "I have the Dior lip oil, and I actually like this one better! It leaves my lips softer and leaves the perfect tint on my lips. Sometimes I combine with a lipstick for extra color." —Emily R. "I really like this and the applicator! It's so fun and cute. I like the texture and the feel of it on my lips. It feels thicker, and it doesn't come off too quickly. I got the color supermodel. It's not too pink like it looks and I wanted it to be natural, so it's perfect. Will be repurchasing." —Martha R. Get it from Amazon for $6.91+ (available in 14 shades). Promising review: "Okay so first nothing will make you 'poreless,' but this stuff is amazing. Will even out fine lines and help with super porous areas; my T-zone [has really visible] pores and this definitely gave me a boost in confidence. I would highly recommend. Especially to those not to familiar with makeup, this is a game changer. Honestly it works better than my $30 primer from Urban Decay and lasts all day. I am oily so I usually blot some powder on later in the day but if you have dry skin this could be the ultimate game changer!" —Olivia Get it from Amazon for $10. Promising review: "I have tried IGK, Living Proof, Not Your Mother's, Amika, and so many others but THIS LASTS THE LONGEST! I am impressed by this product. Don't listen to the haters because I have severely fine and oily hair and this product allows me to last for one week without washing and it gives me volume..." —473X Get it from Amazon for $12.59+ (available in the original six shades and various pack sizes). Amazon Promising reviews: "Love this product. I always use it, and I am a sweaty person 😅 I sweat easily.. not even kidding. I compare it to the One Size and I have to say that I do like this one much better. It really doesn't budge." —Zully B "This works just as well as the One Size. I have very oily skin and need a high-quality setting spray, and this one works amazing! Skip the expensive one and try this!!" —Shopgirl Get it from Amazon for $10.98 (also available in a pack of two). Bek O'Connell / BuzzFeed This is designed to work on all hair types, with reviewers with 2b–4c curls mentioning it worked for them! Promising review: "This stuff is AMAZING. I have been bleaching my hair for 12 years. My hair has never looked or felt better before using this. It is so soft and shiny... only using this once a week. It has worked better on my hair than Olaplex or other expensive treatments. I'll never use anything else!" —Craig Check out BuzzFeed's full review of the Elizavecca hair treatment for more deets! Get a bottle from Amazon for $7.60. Amazon, Promising reviews: "This stuff literally saved my skin! I started using it daily. Especially after gym sessions. My skin started clearing up and I have used it every day and I have never looked back. This has become a staple in my skincare routine. I use it after toner and before serum in the morning and then I spray it after the gym. It's better than the Tower 28 one." —Shay G. "Does the EXACT same as Tower28 for a fraction of the price! I love it, my face feels refreshed. Highly recommend, no shade to Tower28, they are great, but this is cheaper and if you're on a budget, use this alternative! Great for after work, the gym, or existing in these hot summer months. If you have sensitive skin, it's gentle." —Paul R. Get it from Amazon for $17.46. It comes with a smoothing nozzle, styling nozzle, and diffuser nozzle. Promising reviews: "Great powerful hair dryer. Great price too. Have had Dysons in the past and nothing but trouble with them. This is far better and very affordable, and no problems with it. (Retired hairdresser)." —bamzee "Purchased this dryer to help dry my granddaughter's type 4C hair. Drys quickly and cuts down on her squirming. She hates having her hair done. Shortened the drying time significantly. Would recommend." —Jiggilypuff Get it from Amazon for $28.49+ (available in eight colors). Promising reviews: "This lip balm is as smooth as butta, and not to mention smells great. I apply it at night and wake up with soft, hydrated, plump lips. Bonus: if you apply hyaluronic acid on your lips beforehand — chef's kiss. As for the price, I wish it had way more product, but it is cheaper than the Laneige lip mask and way better, in my humble opinion." —María "This lip balm is a great alternative if you do not want to pay a ton of money for the Laneige and Summer Fridays lip balms. It is super moisturizing and left my lips super smooth and soft. One of the best e.l.f. products I have tried and it is a wonderful price. Even though it is pretty small, it lasts a good amount of time. I would definitely recommend." —Lance Z. Get it from Amazon for $4 (available in five styles). Promising reviews: "Love this! In my opinion, better than Laneige at a fraction of the price. A bit thicker, which I like. Even though it's a sleeping mask, I use it throughout the day to keep my lips moist and soft. Will keep ordering again and again." —Michaela "This is the most moisturizing lip treatment on the market. When my lips started getting dry due to the cold season, I was thinking of buying the Laneige lip mask, but it's soooo expensive. This is a fraction of the cost and feels just the same. Very good product." —Riya Get a set of three from Amazon for $9.90 (available in five scent combos). Amazon Promising reviews: "Love these better than my glow recipe! Better because it doesn't have the smell... Makes my skin feel amazing and so juicy! Great value for the money." —Tiffany T. "I've used Glow Recipe's Watermelon Dew Drops, and while I liked the product I wasn't too fond of the strong scent or the price point. The texture, finish, and feel of this product is pretty much identical, but without the fragrance and at a better value. Smooth, absorbs quickly, works well as a lightweight primer that doesnt pill with makeup, and subtly evens skin tone over time." —K.C. Get it from Amazon for $11.97. Promising reviews: "I was gifted the Hanacure masks and loved them, but they're just way too pricey. I heard SO many wonderful things about the Skin 1004 Zombie Mask... Let me tell you, this mask is just straight up magic. I didn't notice any changes to my skin immediately, but a few hours later when I looked in the mirror, I was shocked at how wonderful my skin looked. I've never noticed a difference like this. Hanacure who?!??... This Zombie mask is every bit as magical, with better results in my opinion... Bottom line, this is better than Hanacure, both price and results-wise." —Dana D. Get a box of eight masks from Amazon for $19.43. Promising reviews: "I've tried just about every eyebrow gel on the market, from high-end to drugstore. This is not only [an alternative] for Benefit's brow gel and Glossier Boy Brow, it's better! So much better and way cheaper." —Amazon Customer "OK, I was skeptical as I love my ABH Brow Freeze. But a friend did my makeup and used it and I was really impressed. So, I got some and played with it on my own. It is so much smoother to glide through my brows. I work it through back and front, then again with a clean spoolie. I LOVE the results. It also washes out really well (even if I don't use a makeup wipe)." —Miss Jordan Get it from Amazon for $9.90+ (available in five shades). Amazon, New to cleansing balms? Start by warming the product up with your dry fingertips, massage in circular motions on dry skin, then rinse with lukewarm water. If using as part of a double cleansing routine, follow this up with a water-based facial cleanser. Promising review: "I've loved the Farmacy Green Clean for many years, but at $30+ for a jar that lasts 1–2 months max, it was a pricey product to buy on a regular basis. I wanted something just as good at a lower price, and I FOUND IT! This cleanser absolutely melts away makeup and deep cleans the skin without any drying or eye irritation! It smells great, and a little goes a loooonng way — I'm in love!" —Amazon Customer Juno & Co. is a small business specializing in personal care and skincare products. Get it from Amazon for $14.99.

Controversial Country Star Makes Bold Statement About 'A Wife's Job'

Controversial Country Star Makes Bold Statement About 'A Wife's Job' originally appeared on Parade. A country star who has found himself at the center of some controversies in recent years made a bold statement about what "a wife's job" is around the house. In a recent interview with Taste of Country, country star got to talking about what it's like at home when he's not on tour. While it sounds like he definitely pitches in around the house, it also sounds like his "wife's job" is to keep him busy with a honey-do list. "[Brittany] gets on Amazon and orders all this stuff, and it comes to the house and I'm like, 'What is this?' and she goes, 'Oh, we're gonna redo Navy's room,' and I'm like, 'Oh, "we are"? OK, cool,'' said added, "That's kind of a wife's job. If they just see you chilling, doing nothing, watching baseball or whatever, they're like, 'Hey, you should help me do this!' 'OK, here we go,'" the country star said wryly, adding that he's "gotta get back to work" so he can get a break from all that. "I've been off the road for about six months, and I am itching to get back after it," said Aldean. The Taste of Country host followed up by joking, "When's the last time Jason Aldean did a load of laundry?", and Aldean said that he helps with that kind of thing all the time. "Probably yesterday! Yeah, you know, we kind of tag-team that up. If she does it, she'll bring it in, I'll fold it or whatever. I pitch in around the house and help out," said the married Brittany Kerr in 2015. They met in 2012 when photos of them surfaced canoodling at a bar, and he was forced to issue an apology for "acting inappropriately" because at the time, he was married to his first wife, Jessica Ann Ussery. Ussery and Aldean separated a few months later, and Kerr and Aldean made their first public appearance as a couple in 2014 before marrying a year later. Aldean has two daughters from his first marriage, Keeley, 22, and Kendyl, 17, and a son, Memphis, 7, and a daughter, Navy, 6, from his second marriage. The singer has never been a stranger to controversy, from his second wife posting a video with transphobic comments that caused his public relations firm The GreenRoom to part ways with him after 17 years, to his "Try That in a Small Town" song, the video for which was pulled from CMT because of backlash over its lyrics about guns, violence and what some deemed coded references to lynching. Aldean was famously performing on stage during the 2017 mass shooting at his Las Vegas concert that killed 60 people. 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 Controversial Country Star Makes Bold Statement About 'A Wife's Job' first appeared on Parade on Jun 10, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 10, 2025, where it first appeared.
