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. Shopping · You deserve a little treat — on the reg, but *especially* on Mother's Day. And who better to pick it out than you. 😌 1. A TikTok-viral Lego flower bouquet that's startlingly realistic and won't wilt on you after a week. Assembling it takes just a couple of hours, and once it's done, you'll get to enjoy it as a unique piece of botanical decor — and a fun surprise for any visitors once they realize the flowers aren't real. Check out this viral Lego flower bouquet in this TikTok. The bouquet includes 15 stems with a mix of flower and leaf varieties, including roses, snapdragons, and poppies, and it uses elements made from plant-based plastic. Promising review: "Buy this for anyone in your life who loves gardening and you are guaranteed to see their face light up when they open it up. Got it for my mom on her birthday, and she thought it was the coolest gift ever." — Greg Get it from Amazon for $47.99. 2. A quality pair of silk pajamas worth every penny for how luxuriously soft and breathable they are, with a slouchy oversized fit that won't feel suffocating. The best part: They're machine washable! Lunya Though I haven't tried this sleep set yet, I have a silk robe from Lunya that my sister-in-law got me a couple of years ago and it's hands-down the most luxurious thing I own. It's true 100% silk (like these PJs) and has the most incredible buttery soft texture to it — so I can only imagine what it'd feel like to fall asleep in one of their silk sets. Psst — you can check out more of their washable silk styles if you prefer a long-sleeve set, for instance. And see our guide to the best silk pajamas for more options elsewhere! Promising review: "Like the other short sets, the top is generous and loose. The pattern is beautiful, and each one is different depending on where the cloth is cut. Love this pattern and hope they continue to collaborate and do more Monet prints! Fabric is thick and sturdy. Definitely will wash and wear well over time." — Alicia M. Get them from Lunya for $198 (available in women's sizes XS–XL and nine styles). 3. A DIY miniature bookstore model because hey, you might not be running your dream business just yet, but this is the next best thing in the meantime. It also comes in other gorgeous settings, like a greenhouse, a flower shop, and even a magic emporium if you love a witchy aesthetic. It takes about ~20 hours total to assemble and finish, so this is a cool long-term project you can tinker with after the kids are in bed, or anytime you have the house to yourself. When you're all done, you'll have a gorgeous and detailed piece of decor that'd look lovely on a shelf, so you get to enjoy it long after you've put your finishing touches on it. Promising review:"This model has been such an enjoyable build. As of now, I am not completely finished. Having put around 20 hours into it, I'd say I have another eight hours more to go. The pieces are all vibrantly pre-painted, with the exception of one large base piece. The glue and tweezers it comes with are perfect for the job. The cloth I had gotten for the couch was not large enough, but I improvised by using another color cloth (that also came with the kit) for the seat. The attention to detail in this little study kit is just first class. I even recognized books that I have read/purchased in the past within this model! I am not experienced at all with building wooden kits and I was still able to do this one perfectly with minimal struggle. I will certainly be buying more Robotime models in the near future, the greenhouse one is next :)!" — B.R.J.G. Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in 11 designs). 4. A glass essential oil diffuser that'll put on a gorgeous light show while it quietly releases a cool, calming mist. You can add your favorite essential oil for aromatherapy or just enjoy it as a humidifier — either way, the entire family will be entranced by its unique, firework-esque light effects and colors. Heads up: 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 review: "True to image!! I thought there was no way this could look as cute as the pictures! I keep a water bottle nearby to refill it, and it works perfectly! I love it, and it's so easy to use." — Gracie Get it from Amazon for $29.97 (available in 38 styles, including two sizes). 5. A question a day journal if you've always liked the idea of journaling but never found the time (or energy) to make it part of your schedule. This gives you just one question each day to consider, and after five years (!) you'll be able to look back at all of your answers and really chart your growth. You start by answering one question each day for the whole year, and the following year, you go back and answer the questions again. It can be really eye-opening to look back and see how you've answered in the past, then consider how your thoughts and feelings have evolved. You can check out BuzzFeed's Q&A a Day: 5-Year Journal review for more on why we love it! Promising review: "Love this little book! I'm a busy mom, so doing any kind of full-on journaling is just not an option for me, but this little book is the perfect approach for someone who enjoys the idea of documenting life but is so busy living it they can't spend a lot of time! I love the design of the book, very beautifully done and I especially love that the pages are in the thicker side. Not cheaply made at all. My daughters both have requested one of their own, now!" — Alden Stowe Get it from Amazon for $8.46. 6. A shiatsu neck and back massager that looks like pure bliss, and at a fraction of the cost of a professional massage. If your neck and shoulders constantly ache, you deserve this! This has eight deep-kneading nodes with three speed strengths and optional heat! As shown above, you can loop your arms through to hold it in place and even do other things like typing on a computer. You can see it at work on TikTok! Promising review: "My pic [above, left] says it alI, so helpful. I already had a back shiatsu massager for years, but could not reach the areas around my shoulder blades and my neck, and for my nanny work, I get so achy. This thing was all I needed. I only expected the knobs and the heat, but you can attach it on you and do computer work as well as driving; it has an attachment to get the power in your car... LOVE LOVE this thing. I was in severe pain and tried everything. This was my missing link, lol. Feels like a human massage but you can control it." — Marinchich Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in five colors). 7. And self-heating Dr. Scholl's foot masks if your sore, aching feet are in dire need of some TLC because you're on your feet *all* day. Made with Epsom salts, lavender, and peppermint, these deeply penetrating masks will warm and relax your tired feet, leaving them moisturized afterward, thanks to the soothing shea butter. Check them out on TikTok! BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says, "I'm a long-ish distance runner, and these were certainly an interesting experience for my feet! You slide them on and, after a few minutes, feel a tingling, mildly burning (in a good way) sensation. It doesn't quite numb your feet, but it relaxes them. I kept them on for 30 minutes and then toweled my feet off, and the tingling sensation slowly faded over the next 30 minutes. After that my feet felt very refreshed and relaxed at a time of day when they're usually aching from all the miles I put in. The whole thing was a mess-free, easy process, and I will definitely keep them on hand for longer run days!" Promising review:"Very soothing. My husband and l used these on our European vacation, and they definitely felt good on our feet!" — KS2018 Get a set of three pairs from Amazon for $14.37. 8. A birthstone necklace you can also have personalized with initials (your own, your kids', your partner's, etc.), making it both a stylish and meaningful accessory you can keep with you always. Amazon Mignon and Mignon is a small biz based in California that makes personalized necklaces, bracelets, and more. Promising review: "I was so excited to see how beautiful this necklace turned out! It was exactly how I customized it. The letters are easy to read on the charms. Great value! I'm obsessed with the cute size of the necklace and the amazing quality for the price." — Sophie Get it from Mignon and Mignon on Amazon Handmade for $21.50+ (available in three finishes, two chain lengths, and up to seven birthstones and leaves with custom initials). 9. Or a dainty zodiac necklace so no one will ever have to ask you, "Hey, what's your sign?" It can be customized with up to five constellations! DeJewel / Etsy DeJewel is a Houston-based small biz on Etsy that makes all sorts of gorgeous necklaces in this style — check out their store page for more designs! Promising review: "So so cute!! It's exactly as described and absolutely beautiful." — amandaclark1030 Get it from DeJewel on Etsy for $25.90+ (originally $51.80+; available in three finishes, five lengths, two chain types, and up to five zodiac charms). 10. A Fujifilm Instax instant film camera so you can flex your photography skills in a retro-style format and capture your family, friends, and favorite locations in instant prints — perfect for displaying on the fridge, along a wall, or at your desk so you can smile at the memories. BTW, if you like the look of that camera bag above, you can snag a similar vegan leather one for $14.99. Promising review:"I take this thing with me everywhere. People always love it when you pull it out because everyone loves a good instant photo. I have shot about 240 pics on mine and I keep albums for my kids to go through. Probably the most fun camera I've ever used. Solid build quality, excellent user experience. It's just fun!" — Andrew Get it from Amazon for $129.95. 11. Nortiv 8 walking shoes that are like gifting your feet little pillows to walk around on 24/7 — except throw in arch and heel support too. At a glance, people would easily mistake these for trendy Hokas, but you'll have an extra 100 bucks still in your bank account. 😌 Promising reviews: " Like a cloud. ☁️ These are the most comfortable shoes I have worn; it feels like a pillow hugging your foot. The same day they were delivered, I ordered another pair in a different color. I'm a healthcare worker, and these are perfect for standing and being on your feet a lot. Walking feels very smooth and low-impact. I never leave reviews on anything, but these are amazing." — Ian Durham "As someone who owns a pair of Hokas, in my opinion, these are better. I have plantar fasciitis and work in a hospital. Believe me when I say this, I HAVE ZERO FOOT PAIN when I'm wearing these! For half the price and comfort, I will 100% recommend these to anyone." — Jennifer Emilien Get them from Amazon for $56.94 (available in sizes 6–11 and seven colors). 12. A faaaancy automatic spice grinder with the coolest design. To use, you'll swap in interchangeable pods filled with spices for grinding directly into your food — especially helpful when the recipe calls for a *lot* of pepper. It'll give you that freshly ground flavor that tastes way better than out of the shaker! Promising review: "I'm so glad I ordered one of these after I read about them on Oprah's list of favorite things. As billed, it's so attractive and can sit on your counter, so easy, the charge lasts so long, and the interchangeable pods rock! It's easy to add freshly ground flavor, and fresh pepper is sooo much better than from the shaker. It's so easy to adjust the grind, and the color selection is fantastic. I love mine." — Sasha Get it from Amazon for $61 (available in 10 colors, including two models; comes with the grinder and two interchangeable pods). 13. A tub caddy, which will motivate you to set a good hour aside for a relaxing bath and pull out all the stops: candles, a cold glass of wine, a bath bomb, and a good novel (or Netflix). It's not only size-adjustable to accommodate different tubs; it also comes equipped with a wineglass holder, edges that safely prop up a book or tablet, a candle holder, and extra space for whatever else your cozy heart desires. Promising review:"I love this product! It's perfect for my free-standing tub. The quality is beautiful and goes perfectly with my finishes and decor. I spend much more time in the bath now that I can safely use my iPad and phone! Best Mother's Day gift I've given myself in years." — Christine Mckenna Get it from Amazon for $29.97+ (available in six styles). 14. An ultra-cute and trendy set of flower hair clips — these will have you channeling ~flower power~ every time you step outside the door. Reviewers say they're capable of holding up long, thick hair. Amazon Check out seven ways to wear the clips on TikTok! Promising review:"These clips are adorable. They are very sturdy as well. You have to use the direct middle petal for them to open, but they hold a surprising amount of hair. I wasn't expecting much due to the fact that I have very long very thick hair, but they can handle it. Good price and wonderful earthy colors as well." — Madison Austin Get a set of six from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in four color combinations). 15. A high-quality, extra-cushioned Lululemon yoga mat worth treating yourself to whether you're a longtime yogi or just starting out. Lululemon Jenae: I have a very similar Lululemon yoga mat that I absolutely love! I use it for all of my indoor workouts, including mat pilates. It's far more comfortable than performing moves directly on carpet (and certainly hard floors) and offers really nice padding for your knees and hands when you're down there doing a cat-cow pose. Its rubber base keeps it from slipping around too. It's super easy to clean with just a damp rag after a particularly sweaty session and dries fairly fast, after which point you can just roll it up and stash it in a corner or closet. Aside from its functionality, I adore how pretty it is, especially the colorful pastel swirl designs. Get it from Lululemon for $98 (available in five colors and one size, which is 71x26 inches). You can check out their other yoga mat styles here, as there are options that are extra long or textured, for instance. 16. A guided visual "breathing partner" to help you incorporate moments of mindfulness into your day, especially when stress and anxiety start to feel overwhelming. This glowing buddy has fade-in, fade-out color prompts to guide you through various breathing techniques, like 4/7/8 "calming breaths" or 4/4/4/4 "box breathing." You deserve a little peace and tranquility this Mother's Day! Mindset is a small business that specializes in calming personal care and decor products. Promising review:"I am a certified yoga teacher, I KNOW the benefits of mindfulness and breathing, but I still struggle to get into meditation mode. This allows me to practice on the go, at home, in the bath, in bed — it's perfect!! Super practical, like having a metronome but for your breath. I've often searched online for 'guided breathing' but I don't always love the audio and then when the ads interrupt, I wanna die. So treat yourself and invest in this!!! I'm getting one for all my friends. Best purchase ever!!!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $22.95 (available in three designs and a version with sound). 17. A stainless-steel wine chiller that'll keep your rosé, chardonnay, or sparkling wine perfectly chilled while lounging in the park or by the pool — because you deserve better than sipping from a warm drink (ugh). It fits most 750-ml wine bottles and features a double-walled, vacuum-insulated design to keep the wine chilled for hours! Promising review: "Would make a beautiful gift for a wine lover and I suspect our friends will be wanting one once they see us serving in ours. Really keeps white wine and champagne nice and cold. Every bottle we've tried so far has fit just fine as the top adjusts to the height of the bottle. Very, very pleased!" — Sherri Get it from Amazon for $89.95 (available in 12 colors). 18. Some marine collagen under-eye gels you can plop on while making dinner, watching TV, or enjoying that rare hour of alone time however you like. They'll give your tired under-eyes some much-needed pampering and help reduce dark circles and puffiness, and you'll feel totally refreshed afterward! Promising review:"I absolutely LOVE these eye gels! They were recommended to me via TikTok and I decided to try them out and they were absolutely amazing. They are soooo hydrating and make your face feel smooth and refreshed at the end. I'm a student, mom, and wife, so with my busy life, these are perfect to throw on as a spa day or at the end of the night when I get home from work and I'm doing homework. Hands down, the best eye gels ever, and not only that, but they're super pretty and aesthetic! And AMAZING for sensitive skin!" — Sydney Hare Get 12 pairs from Amazon for $18.96 (also available in a gold set). 19. And a facial steamer if you've ever stayed in a hot shower a little longer to just soak in the steam — now you can enjoy the same experience from the comfort of your bed or couch. This creates "nano-ionic" steam that penetrates your skin deeply to soften, hydrate, and open up pores — and like your steamy showers, it can also help relieve sinus congestion. Note that this does come with a five-piece stainless steel tool kit as well, but please be careful if performing extractions on yourself as these can injure your skin if not used properly. Promising review: "I absolutely love this product. I purchased it when I was congested because I wanted to use steam to break up congestion. This steamer felt amazing. It definitely helped with my congestion and it opened up my pores too. I used the skin tool kit and that worked great as well. I love that this comes with so many settings including a humidifier and towel warmer as well. This was an absolute game changer for me and I highly recommend it." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $32.95 (available in three colors). 20. An investment-worthy KitchenAid stand mixer as gorgeous as it is useful, whether you're whipping mashed potatoes, mixing cooking dough, or making a big batch of meatballs — it's one of the best kitchen splurges, in my humble opinion, *especially* if you bake on the regular. And why not snag it in their 2025 Color of the Year, Butter — which is so gorgeous and cheerful (not to mention perfect for spring), it's enough to make you want to rethink your kitchen's entire color scheme. The mixer comes with a 5-quart bowl with a handle, a 3-quart bowl, a flex-edge beater (this thing is SO useful because it keeps dough from getting stuck to the sides of your bowl), a pastry beater (great for breaking butter!), a coated dough hook, a six-wire whip, and a pouring shield. The 5-quart stainless-steel bowl can mix dough for nine dozen cookies or four loaves of bread in a single batch! Both bowls are dishwasher safe for easy cleanup. Jenae: I have a KitchenAid mixer and honestly can't imagine living without it now — it takes all the manual effort out of whisking ingredients and saves you a bit of time as you can work on other things while it's blending. If you've been on the fence about getting a KitchenAid, let this be the final nudge you needed to pull the trigger. Get it from KitchenAid for $499.99. 21. A moody reversible octopus plush made to help little people express big feelings without having to say a word — but you might be tempted to pick one up for yourself and use this lil' guy for your own self-expression on days when mom life is, just, a LOT. Check it out in this TikTok. Promising review:"I ordered two of these adorable plushies, one for me and my mom. My mother loves hers. This little plush is very soft, and good quality, and it just puts you in a good mood. My son even loves playing with it. I was going to put this in my car, but I found that it helps my son to communicate his feelings when he doesn't have the right words to express himself. I definitely plan on buying more of these cute plushies." — Reigna Mingo Get it from Amazon for $7.38 (available in many colors). 22. An automatic pan stirrer for when you're whipping up spaghetti sauce for dinner but also have, like, 10 other things going on at all times and no one around to help stir the sauce when you have to turn your back to the stove! It'll be the little kitchen assistant you desperately need and might just prevent a burned food catastrophe or two. It has a built-in timer and uses four AA batteries (not included). Check out a TikTok of the automatic pan stirrer in action! Promising review: "My husband loves to cook. We have two very small children, so while his meals are mostly yummy, they are also sometimes burnt. :) This was perfect for him. He's able to turn it on, run into the next room to save the day with a plastic bag and a washcloth for whatever blowout-esque mess I'm dealing with, forget he's cooking, run back into the kitchen frantically when he remembers, and arrive only to find the meal practically cooking itself. Best. Gift. Ever." — Jake the ChefturnedDaddy Get it from Uncommon Goods for $25 (also available in a rechargeable version). 23. A winged eyeliner stamp so you never have to stress about whether you have time to put on eye makeup before you walk out the door (because if you're like me, doing it manually usually involves redoing one or both sides at least once). Be prepared for the other moms to start asking how your eyeliner has such perfect wings — it's up to you if you wanna share the secret! Promising review: "I like makeup. I'm not an influencer or whatever; I'm just a Midwestern, middle-aged mom who LOVES A GOOD WING and who has tried every liner out there. I tried this because of BuzzFeed, and I'm not disappointed!! It's stayed dark, smudge-free, and sharp. I'm impressed. I definitely recommend this product, and I will definitely buy it again! These wings are idiot-proof, Missouri-summer proof, and allergy-proof!!!!!" — Sarah Jackson Get it from Amazon for $14.98 (available in three wing sizes and a combo pack with all three if you want ~options~). 24. Levi's Ribcage high-rise jeans you can reach for all year long, whether you dress them up with heels or keep things casual with your favorite sneaks. Reviewers call them the perfect everyday jeans, and I have to agree! This classic straight-leg fit will (*cue Taylor Swift*) never go out of style. Levi's Jenae: I have these in a couple of different washes and absolutely love them! They fit my pear-shaped body pretty well, and I found them true to size. Promising review: "Perfect everyday jeans. These are the first jeans I have bought in 8 years. They are incredibly soft and comfortable but also supportive and fitted around the waist and butt. I love the true straight leg — they are not skinny and not wide, just a classic straight fit. I have a minimal wardrobe so I don't collect a lot of different fits. These were the perfect jean for a year-round, classic look for me. I purchased in some light and dark and love them." — Amanda Get them from Levi's for $98 (available in women's sizes 23–34, 10 washes, and three lengths). 25. A mini illuminated relaxation waterfall to help you recenter and block out the noise for a little while. The pump itself is quiet, but the gentle sound of trickling water is just enough to drown out loud thoughts and help you feel calm and relaxed. This would be great to put in your home office or bedroom. Promising review:"Awesome addition to my workspace environment. I've tried several fountains so far. This one is awesome, the pump is quiet, as is the water, it simply provides a really nice environmental impact on my workspace. I run it up to eight hours in a day, use distilled water only and clean it periodically, and it's running just like new after several weeks. Not all of the fountains that I've tried work quite so well, I'm impressed and happy with this purchase. Six-month update: If I could give this thing 6 stars, I would. It runs so quiet, and I nearly let it go dry last weekend *(three-day weekend and forgot to turn it off...) — once I filled it up again it was just as quiet as ever. I'm beyond impressed. Still cleaning it periodically and using only distilled water." — Rod_CdA Get it from Amazon for $38 (also available in another style). 26. The gorgeous Always Pan from Our Place, which will make you regret all the times you dirtied up six different dishes to make a family meal. The Always Pan can do it all: braise, sear, steam, strain, sauté, fry, boil, serve, and store. It's also sooo lightweight and compact and comes in *gorgeous* colors to match your aesthetic. It comes with a beechwood spatula, custom stainless-steel steamer basket, modular lid, and of course, the pan. Our Place was founded by Shiza Shahid, along with Amir Tehrani and Zach Rosner. She's a Pakistani social entrepreneur who also co-founded the non-profit Malala Fund, which promotes education for young girls. Bek: I have and love this pan! It just feels really nice to hold. The nesting spoon is absolutely genius, everything cooks evenly, and food just glides right off with minimal effort. If you hate scrubbing, consider getting this! Jenae: I *also* have this pan and it's quickly become my new go-to pan for cooking. I've used it for everything from boiling water for instant ramen to sautéing vegetables, and I'm always blown away by how well everything cooks without sticking. And cleanup is a breeze — you'll never have to leave this soaking overnight because of stuck-on food bits. Get it from Amazon for $80+ (available in three sizes and six colors). 27. A roll-on skin tint because sometimes you want to feel a little more put together before rushing out the door, but your hectic schedule leaves little time for sitting down to apply foundation. This weightless, silky formula provides sheer to light coverage with a subtle glow, and you can literally just swipe it on where you need it, blending quickly with your fingertips. Promising review: "WOW! I was too amazed at how it blended so well! And to buy the perfect shade online — I was scared at first, but it matched perfectly!! I texted my mom and sisters so fast!! You won't see me use anything else now." — Kam S Get it from Anastasia Beverly Hills for $33.60 (originally $42; available in 16 shades) — use code BEST20 at checkout for the discount! 28. A bottle of Mike's Hot Honey so you can add a sweet-spicy kick to your own plate next time the family's having pizza, grilled cheese, spaghetti, chicken nuggets... pretty much anything is made better with this. Amazon Promising review:"This stuff is amazing. I keep finding things to put it on. It definitely has a kick but you get used to it after a few times. I've used it on veggies (acorn squash was awesome), steak, salmon, and chicken nuggets that I stole from my kids. All awesome. The only thing it didn't go great on was tacos. But you win some, you lose some. The sweetness of the honey just didn't have a place on tacos. Love this stuff, though." — DadOfThree Get a 10-ounce bottle from Amazon for $8.50. Check out BuzzFeed's Mike's Hot Honey review for more info! 29. A spaghetti strap romper with a loose fit perfect for days when comfort and ease of movement are top priorities. You can layer a cute T-shirt, tank, or bralette underneath and style it in endless ways — and did I mention it has two *big* pockets?? Amazon Promising review:"The comfiest romper I've ever tried and I love it so much! If I could wear one every day I would lol — it's THAT comfortable! As a mom, I just want to get up and go, but also look cute and comfortable while running errands and more! Definitely buying more!" — Kevin & Ida Get it from Amazon for $26.99 (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and 30 styles). 30. A professional grooming kit for hectic weeks when making it to your nail appointment isn't quite in the cards. This has all the tools you need to groom your hands to perfection, like trimming off hangnails, pushing cuticles, and filing your nails into that perfect rounded shape. It also contains tools for foot and facial care too, so it's more of an all-in-one grooming kit! And it folds up into a compact case for storage. Promising review: "As someone who loves DIY projects and attention to detail, having a reliable nail grooming kit is essential. T his set has exceeded my expectations in terms of quality and functionality. The variety of tools included in this set is impressive, covering everything from basic nail clipping to more detailed manicure and pedicure tasks. I particularly appreciate is the sharpness and precision of the clippers. Both the fingernail and toenail clippers are sturdy and cut cleanly without any splitting or tearing of the nails. The stainless steel construction feels durable and hygienic, and I love the sleek design. The cuticle trimmer and pusher are very effective, and the nail file smooths edges beautifully. I've also used the tweezers for various small tasks, and they're precise and easy to handle." — dragonlord Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in five colors). 31. And Fake Halo holographic nail polish from Mooncat because it's glittery, magical, and your nails deserve to look ✨ radiant. ✨ Mooncat Mooncat is a woman-owned, vegan, and cruelty-free small business founded by Michelle Lin. Promising review:"I received my first one in the mail. It was so easy and smooth going on. Two coats later, AMAZING, vibrant, beautiful color. The way the light dances off of my nails, the sun shining off the polish, the prismatic guess have me mesmerized. Yep, I picked two more colors a week later. My daughter is now hooked as well. We love this polish and will be picking out a few more. This is the ONLY polish that we use now." — Johnine L. Get it from Mooncat for $15. 32. Or a nail concealer designed to illuminate nails while concealing any yellowing or staining, coating them in a milky shade that looks natural and gorgeous. Yeah, it costs more than cheaper nail polish, but it gives a professional look without the hefty price tag, and reviewers say it lasts up to two weeks! Promising review: "As a 62-year-old woman who gardens, cleans house, etc., I needed something that improved the look of my nails without looking cheap or crappy. This was more than I wanted to spend on nail totally worth it. Two coats showed NO ridges and looked better than natural without looking fake or cheap. Totally worth it!" — Unbiased Independent Reviewer Get it from Amazon for $17+ (available in five shades and a mini set). Check out our Londontown Illuminating Nail Concealer review for more deets! 33. A beautifully packaged Otherland candle to infuse your home with the smells of spring, including invigorating scents like Out of the Blue (blue hydrangea, sheer hyacinth, and water lily) and Clean Blossom (crisp linen, mimosa flower, and creamy gardenia). Otherland If you *really* love yourself a candle, you might as well treat yourself to one of their sets while you're at it, which are a bit cheaper than buying them individually. 😌 Get it from Otherland for $20 (also available in sets). 34. And a genius candle warmer lamp if you love the *idea* of candles but flames make you nervous, and you're always worried about forgetting to blow them out. Just set the candle on its base and turn the lamp on, and its heat will melt the candle as if it were lit, releasing its delicious aroma into the air. It's cute, cozy, and completely hazard free. It includes a halogen warming bulb, and even has a dimmer so you can adjust it to your desired brightness level. Promising review: "This little lamp is such a gem! It's gorgeous even when it's off, thanks to its adorable flower-shaped lampshade that fills the room with the softest, coziest glow. It heats up wax pretty fast, and I was genuinely impressed by how much fragrance it pulls from my candles (especially my beloved Bath & Body Works 3-wicks!). It's got a timer, a dimmer, and it even came with an extra bulb. It's a standard plug (not USB), and while I wish the cord was just a tad longer, it's still an amazing buy. Plus, I can finally relax knowing there's less soot and less risk of fire. Total win!" — xti Get it from Amazon for $25.59 (available in 13 styles). 35.

A double-walled glass with a charming upside-down animal design that any young kiddos will most definitely want to use too, but thankfully it's fairly resistant to drops. It might seem a bit childish, but none of us are too old to laugh at an upside-down bear filled with milk. Amazon Promising review:"Some things are just meant for holding in the palm of your hand — silver dollar coins, your car keys, and sea shells for example. And also this cup. The 'bearer' of the gift reported, 'It's so fun to drink out of and I like holding it in my hand.' Endorsed by a 6-year-old, the cup is sure to please any owner. Add some brown colored liquification to make the bear appear like the great American grizzly or add some oat milk to make him/her appear like a dirty polar bear. Name your bear and give it a birthday — celebrate this fun creation. Cups like this are guaranteed smile generators." — Eebeegee Get it from Amazon for $8+ (available in two styles).
