Or Beyond Bored, a 200-page activity book intended for entertaining adults in the most surprising (and hilariously mundane) ways possible. Its spiral-bound design makes it super easy to handle in small airplane seats, and the activities range from the "sensible sedan coloring sheet" to "complete the drawing tasks," involving trash raccoons who wish they were in Paris. One reviewer complained that there are too many haunted dolls in this book, and I've gotta when I knew I had to have it. A textured NeeDoh gumdrop that'll be the best stimming toy this side of Willie Wonka's Chocolate Factory. These are made to be extra squishable with a satisfying weight *and* although they are silicone, they won't gather dust if packed into your carry-on. It's basically a real-life Everlasting Gobstopper, and it'll gladly keep you soothed when the flight gets a On The Fly, a *literal* airplane facial kit from Patchology with two hydrating face masks, both day and night eye gels, and a lip gel mask. Each piece is designed to be opened and applied while in the air, so you can be confident knowing they won't be too messy to use in the window seat. Give your skin a chance to relax during a long travel day and put this in your purse! The newest Kindle Paperwhite — the fastest Kindle yet — for anyone who genuinely thinks it's about the journey (aaand all the hours of uninterrupted reading they can sneak in on a flight) and not just the destination. A single charge can last up to 12 weeks, so go ahead and start reading Throne of Glass now (is this the second Sarah J. Mass reference I've made in this post? YES!). Plus, this is waterproof, so you can cry your heckin' eyes out after finishing the final book without waterlogging your reader. An AirFly wireless transmitter to connect your AirPods (or wireless headphones) to your airplane's screen the next time you travel, no Bluetooth needed!!

A pair of compression socks — they're gonna have you swelling with gratitude when you realize your legs aren't swelling when you reach altitude.

A compact trash bin sure to save your upholstery from suckers, soda bottles, and all the other sticky substances your kids sneak into the car on your family vacation. Despite what your child thinks, cupholders are not, in fact, tiny trash cans.

And a pack of homeopathic jet-lag pills — they may just keep you from sleeping through your vacation, no matter how late your red-eye is.

I just have the older type stackable washer and dryer set, not large, just regular sized. I put both pillows in the washer on gentle, then put both pillows in the dryer. I ran the dryer on medium heat and ran the cycle several times, just to make sure. I'm happy they turned out so well 'cause I love these pillows!" — T.

He'll not-so-happily become their daily desk companion. (We all need one, honestly.) Amazon Promising review: "I ordered this lamp because of its appearance. I didn't NEED a depressed duck lamp ... but it has totally filled a void in my life I didn't know existed. Everyone who sees it pokes it. The lamp is actually very functional. It's got a really nice set of brightness options and the glow is yellowish, which is much nicer than white in a dim/dark room. One thing that isn't mentioned in the description is that its legs are utterly floppy. It's terrific." — Literated Get it from Amazon for $16.99. 11. A mug warmer that'll make sure they actually get to take a sip of hot coffee even if they've gotten distracted by a bazillion tasks since brewing it in the office kitchen. BuzzFeed editor Jenae Sitzes can confirm this gadget is worth the money: "After seeing this coffee warmer all over BuzzFeed Shopping and even gifting my dad one for Christmas, I finally decided to buy one for myself. Based on all the reviews, I was pretty confident I'd soon be kicking myself for not getting it sooner, and that proved to be true: This thing not only looks good, but works great for keeping my coffee warm all day long. (Because yes, I'm one of those people who will sip on coffee until 5 p.m., all right!!) I was kind of worried it'd be too small for some of my larger mugs, but the center plate is bigger than expected and accommodated every mug in my (very eclectic) collection perfectly. I can confirm that flat-bottomed mugs are the best option for using with this warmer as they do stay hotter, but it still keeps my concaved-bottom mugs warm enough for my taste. Also, I looove how sleek the white version looks on my white desk, and the auto-shutoff function is a nice safety feature as an absent-minded person." Promising review: "I researched so many coffee warmers and am so glad I decided on this one. It definitely keeps my coffee hot, no matter how long it takes me to drink it. I also like that it has three settings. As you drink down your coffee, you can lower the heat because it keeps the coffee very hot. I like it so much I ordered a second one for another part of the house." — hottytoddy Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in eight colors). 12. And a "Book Club" mug, in case they enjoy sipping on hot tea or coffee while they mentally escape into a whole new world courtesy of the latest book they checked out from the library. I have this mug and it's one of my favorites. It's from Rifle Paper Co, a woman-owned small business, and it is covered in stunning classic novels. It's an absolute must-have for any book lover. It is, however, worth noting that it cannot go in the dishwasher or microwave! If you love this design as much as I do, you should also check out this beach towel! Promising review:"Love this mug! I am a Jane Austen fan and I cannot wait to curl up with my book and hot chocolate in such a cute mug! Ah thank you!" — LexiAmazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $25 (available in 11 styles). 13. An updated version of the Taylor Swift Little Golden Book fans will take one look and say I'm "enchanted to meet you." The new *~style~* comes with 22 (ooOoOh ooOoOh) bonus pages including stickers and fill-in-the-blank activities. You might find see a lil' Travis cameo within. 😉 I have this book (as pictured above) and by that I mean the second I saw it available for pre-order I added it to my cart faster than you could say "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together." As the parent of a 2-year-old and a 6-month-old, I have many Little Golden Books in my home. However, this one is just STUNNING. I'm a big fan of Taylor (obviously) but was really enamored by how beautiful the pages in the first version was — so, naturally, I had to get the updated version! It's a short book, looks cute on my daughter's shelf, and is a hit for bedtime story time with my son who has, ahem, been mildly encouraged to *also* love Taylor Swift. What more could you want??? Get it from Amazon for $8.78. Note: If you're a diehard Taylor fan here are some other book options you might enjoy: 14. A set of LED lightsaber chopsticks that'll make their weekly sushi lunches just a bit more fun.

Redwood Get two pairs from Amazon for $16.97. 15. An "Awakened Artifacts" puzzle from the TikTok-famous Magic Puzzle Company for the hardcore puzzler in your life *or* someone who just needs to zone out and lock into something fun. And this is even better than a regular puzzle because once it's assembled, you can use the easter eggs to solve the puzzle 's puzzle. Promising review: "Bought this as soon as I got the email that it dropped on Amazon! Love this series and will continue to purchase them. Was it the most challenging puzzle? No, but that didn't take away from the fun of putting it together. Great artwork, wacky pieces, two posters, you just can't go wrong with a magic puzzle!" — Jennifer Lawton Get it from Amazon for $22.99. This is one of 14 puzzles from the Magic Puzzle Company, so there's lots of other ~puzzling~ possibilities once this one's finished! 16. Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza — a card game they can play with their squad (turn it into a drinking game?!) on cold winter nights or even at the beach when the weather is warm. Amazon You deal all the cards out to your two to four players, and everyone keeps their mini-deck face down. Everyone takes a turn putting a card down in the middle of the table, saying one of the words "taco," "cat," "goat," "cheese," and "pizza," in that order. If the picture on your card matches the word that's said, everyone slaps their hand on the card in a pile as quickly as possible. The last person on the pile has to take the stack and add 'em to their cards, and whoever runs out of cards first wins! Get it from Amazon for $9.84. 17. A dazzling candle warmer with a lampshade reminiscent of a high-end crystal chandelier you'd likely see in the middle of a ballroom on Bridgerton.

The lights are super cool, too, and you don't get that smoky smell when you blow out a candle. Definitely obsessed!" — Laura Get it from Amazon for $47.99 (available in two styles). 18. A fan-favorite Otherland candle that'll make their home smell divine while adding a pretty piece of decor to the room. If it were acceptable to soak their entire body in a candle likely want to choose one of these. I'm SUCH a fan of Otherland candles. I've been burning them in my home for years and, honestly, cannot get enough of them. I've given tons of them as gifts as well, and everyone has always raved about how much they love them. They each have a burn time of 55 hours, are made of a coconut and soy wax blend, contain a cotton wick, and are hand poured in the USA. Additionally, Otherland is a small business! Get it from Amazon for $30 (available in 14 scents). 19. A Birthdate pendant featuring gemstones and crystals based on their astrology and day of birth (obvs) because who doesn't love something customized JUST for them? Birthdate Co. is an Asian-owned small business! I have one of these necklaces and it really is gorgeous. I love layering it with other pieces of jewelry that I already own. I love that it comes with a complete explainer of each stone that is included in the necklace and why it was chosen. For example, my specific birth date features a sapphire (for presence of mind), a pearl (for purity), a white topaz (for focus and vision), and an emerald (my birth stone). Such a fun and special necklace anyone would be delighted to get as a gift! Promising review:"My mom loved her Mother's Day gift of this pendant! Was thrilled to learn multiple gemstones represented her actual birthday!" — Jude F Get it from Birthdate Candles for $165+ (available in three materials). 20. A Wreck This Journal can encourage them to get more in touch with their artistic side — great if they've been intimidated by trying to fill out the blank pages of boring old regular journals. This journal may not start out as a personalized item, but it'll certainly be one when they're done with it. Promising review:"I'm 17 and I loved this. In the intro it says the page instructions are all up to interpretation, so if it says 'spill your drink' or something you can take that literally or choose to paint on it with something such as tea or coffee that'll look like brown watercolor. I love that it's full of bizarre prompts but that you have wiggle room if you don't want to do anything too crazy. I would recommend this if you're just looking for something fun or if you're going through some challenges this is really helpful to distract/express/push yourself!" — Marlee Get it from Amazon for $9.19+ (available in two styles). 21. A One Line a Day journal to provide anyone with a place to jot down a quick daily memory they can look back on for years to come — it'll last them five years! I was given one of these five years ago and it's become a cherished part of my nightly routine. The best part is when you get to the second year and can look back at what you did a year ago from that day. Promising review:"I am loving these journals! I got two — one for each of my boys (a baby and a toddler), and each day, I am writing down a short memory with each of them. I feel like it's the perfect solution for a tired mama who doesn't have time to journal pages and pages, but wants to hold onto sweet memories from when the kids are little. Can't wait to see how they grow over the five years contained in the journals!" — Kathy W. Kuegler Get it from Amazon for $15.26. 22.

Promising review: "I absolutely love this stuff. I was skeptical at first, but after my first use, I fell in love. It goes on smoothly and doesn't drip off, which is nice. Once it was time to rinse off, i t was amazing seeing all the stuff it sucked out of my pores (gross, but a good gross). Not only does this stuff work, it's fun to watch and see your face turn into a Smurf lol. I have cystic acne, which in itself is hard to manage, but this stuff made it that much more manageable.

This product makes it easy for me to keep my drinks, remote, etc close by even with dogs running around. It's a little more expensive than I would have liked but it works and I love it so money well spent!" — Amber Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (available in seven colors). 25. A checkered electric blanket that'll give their go-to throw a run for its money — it'll be just as cute to look at but with the added bonus of being able to turn up the heat (literally) and has a foot pocket to their toes EXTRA toasty. I can't think of a better addition to your Valentine's plans than snuggling with this, TBH. Promising review: "I will never ever live my life without a heated blanket after buying this. Omg, I never knew I needed a heated blanket in my life, and now it's a daily use. I love this blanket! It provides the perfect amount of warmth when on high, it's thick, and I love having the foot pockets to tuck my feet into. It has a long cord so I'm able to move it about the room when needed. Great buy!" — Brittany Get it from Amazon for $59.99. 26. And/or a heated eye massager complete with five different massage modes and Bluetooth music so they can fully indulge and relax while relieving pain from eye strain and headaches. Promising review: "I saw this product on one of Amazon's must-have TikTok videos and I knew I had to get it. It was so worth it — even though the price may seem higher compared to other sellers, this is for sure a good investment piece. The quality is top notch, the strap that goes around your head is comfortable, and most importantly, the duration of each mode is long enough that it doesn't interrupt your rest. I work a 12-hour night shift as a nurse and this technology has helped me get through the night easily.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $52.99 (available in six colors). 27. A self-stirring mug to flawlessly blend their sugar and creamer into their freshly brewed coffee so they can focus on more pressing things like learning all the words to Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter album before trying to get tickets to the tour. Amazon Check out a TikTok of the self-stirring mug in action. Promising review: "I'm a huge fan of coffee and I need it in daily life. Absolutely loving this new cup! Easy and quick to mix your coffee and milk, pretty handy! Cleaning the cup couldn't be easier with the self stirring function, just put a little dab of soap, fill the mug half way with water, turn it on and let it do its own thing." — Lina Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in five colors). 28. Or a cult-favorite Anthropologie Icon Juice Glass that'll make every morning cup of iced coffee feel like an Instagram-worthy moment. Anthropologie I am such a sucker for these glasses. My husband is getting increasingly annoyed at how little space there is in our kitchen cabinet because I cannot stop acquiring these cups. They have a nice weight to them, wash really well (I typically just run hot water through them for a bit then dry them with a towel since they are not dishwasher safe), and make my morning coffee feel a bit fancier. Love, love, love them. Get it from Anthropologie for $16 (available in 21 styles). 29. A sunrise alarm clock to wake them up so pleasantly they'll forget that they're supposed to be cranky about heading off to work. This lovely lil' gadget has seven different light settings, calming "wake up" noises, and can be set to gradually get brighter at 30, 20, or 10 minutes. Promising review:"I got this recommendation from TikTok and it really has helped especially with Oregon winters where the sun is not out by the time the alarm rings. It has several peaceful alarm settings and even has night music to put you to sleep. The sunrise with the alarm piano is what I play to wake me up every morning and it is a way better way than to wake up to an annoying phone alarm." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $31.92. 30. A subscription to Book of the Month because few things are as soothing to a bibliophile as cracking open a hardcover book while kicking back in the sunshine. They also offer audiobooks if that's more their speed! Heather Braga / BuzzFeed I was gifted a BOTM subscription many years ago and I've stayed loyal since! It's the only subscription service I've kept up with and gifted to a number of people. Each month your gift recipient will be permitted to choose from a selection of books (and more recently, audiobooks!), all of which are different genres. Then the book they select will be delivered to their door. Half of my beautifully color coordinated bookcase is filled with books from BOTM and I couldn't be happier! Get three months from Book of the Month for $59.99. 31. And a triangular book page holder — an absolutely genius idea for readers who simply *need* somewhere handy to place their book when they start to fall asleep mid-reading. It perfectly fits on nightstands and is designed to *~aesthetically~* hold your spot — it also has a place to put your glasses and a phone. How much better does this evening sound than shouting across the table in a crowded restaurant? Sign me up. Besuerte Store is a small business. The larger size has a spot for a cup as well! Promising review:"I took a chance on this one despite it having very few reviews. It took a little bit to arrive but the product was well worth the wait. I love that it is a beautiful solid wood piece and was packaged in a way that didn't require assembly and would not be damaged upon delivery. Overall, I'd say it exceeded my expectations and is priced well." — R. Young Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes and three styles). 32. An Xbox Series S console so they'll be able to virtually hang and play games with their friends all the time or dive into an enticing solo adventure. I have an Xbox Series S and am forever impressed by all the things it can do in addition to being used for playing video games. You can download a slew of apps on it (Discord, Spotify, Disney+, the list goes on) and essentially use it as a smart TV. It's the smallest Xbox they've come out with so far (I was literally shocked at how tiny and sleek it is when I took it out of the box), but is still packed with great sound and visual specs. My husband set it up in our room so we can hang out and play games before going to sleep — it's great! Promising review:"I'm a PC gamer, I own a jet powered PC at home, but since I can't lug a 50 lb system internationally for work, I decided to give the series S a try to hold me over. I am enjoying this a lot more than I thought I would, the small size of the console is one of the most appealing aspects for me, aesthetically and it will barely take up room in my luggage. Games look surprisingly good for an entry level machine. I'm very much enjoying playing all of my games on this until I get home to my PC. The Xbox Series S is a great value and worth buying." — James Lowe Get it from Amazon for $299. 33. A Renpho percussion massager — a must-have if they're forever complaining about the knots in their back and wishing they could take a daily trip to the spa. Check out a TikTok of the massager in action. Promising review: " I have tried EVERYTHING for my feet, nothing works and I am always in pain. It came, I tried it out, and I thought wow, that feels AWESOME. But the true test is how do you feel the next day right? You cannot always walk around with a massage gun in your hand. The next day, I felt AMAZING. AMAZING. I used it on my hubby's back too, and he said he felt so much better today as well! In addition, this one is way QUIETER than my original massage gun. It's just really a quality piece. You won't be disappointed in this one. It really is what it says. I know it is hard to choose from all the models on the internet, but this one is the real deal. It's worth the money if you have pain." — L Johnson Get it from Amazon for $89.99+ (available in six styles). 34. A veggie chopper they can use to dice onions in a flash and save their uncontrollable crying for the next time they watch The Notebook. It can also spiralize, slice, and chop! Amazon Check out a TikTok of the veggie chopper in action. Promising review:"Makes life so much easier. I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. We used to have a Prepworks chopper which was a similar idea, but you had to press so hard to chop, and it broke after not too long. This one requires very little effort to cut through the food and it has a generous container." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in three sizes and three colors). 35. Crayola Globbles — fun lil' sensory balls for when they really (REALLY) get the urge to hurl something at the wall but *also* don't want to pay for rental damages (we've all been there, right?). These guys won't leave residue and will help get all of their frustrations out. They're also delightfully squishy and stretchy if they're in need of a new fidget toy. Check them out on TikTok! Promising review: " My daughter is 4 and plays with these DAILY! YES they do attract dirt and hair HOWEVER they are so easy to rinse off, it's not a big deal! We took these to a family gathering and ended up giving two away because they were SO loved! The two we gave away went to a 12-year-old and my 19-year-old brother. They discovered throwing them at the ceiling fan and watching them shoot across the room which was pretty entertaining! None of these have busted or ripped and they are definitely NOT gentle with them! I will definitely be buying more!" — Kindle Customer Get a pack of six from Amazon for $10.51+ (also available in a pack of 16). 36. A Baby Nessie Loose Leaf Tea Infuser they'll want to show off to everyone and anyone, but especially their roommate who doesn't "believe in silly fairytales." Promising review: "So stinking cute and works great. I had no loose tea in my cup at all. Easy to clean." — Adriane R. Get it from Amazon for $14.95. 37. Glimmer Glow Stick lipstick will provide their pout with a shade of pink that's *~practically perfect in every way*~ thanks to its fancy pH technology. Mwahhhh 😘 Check out a TikTok of the Glimmer Glow lipstick in action. Promising review: "This is such a pretty pH color lipstick, viral for a reason — it's very pretty to look at, it's not sticky at all, and the more you layer it, the darker the pink shows up. The only thing I don't like is the scent in it, I can almost taste it a bit. It's nice to have in my purse if I need a quick color while I'm out in case of sudden dinner plans or a meeting, because you can control the color saturation to how light or bold it is." — Kristina Bumbelow Get it from Amazon for $4.99. 38. AirPod cases designed to look like a classic roll of Hubba Bubba Bubble Tape and a mini can of Arizona Green Tea — AKA what they likely spent all of their allowance on in the '90s. Amazon Promising review:"I love these so freaking much!! They look exactly like the pictures. They fit and work great. They are protective and I love the fact that there's already a clip on them. Great quality, the details and text are clear." — Raven Get them from Amazon for $8.99. 39. Cozy slippers that'll put a smile on their face and feet — so they can kick back, relax, and let the world know they're taking a much-needed break. Heather Braga / BuzzFeed, I've had these slippers for two years now, and I love them! They're soft, fit well, and keep my toes warm. What more could you want from a pair of slippers? Promising review: " Oh my goodness!!!!!! I have been looking for a cute/ comfortable pair of slippers to wear around the house! I don't know why I waited this long to get these. The material is so soft and the cushion is amazing. And the color is on point. They also run true to size. I will be purchasing in other colors as well." — Kaitlin Garcia Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in women's sizes 5–12 and five styles). 40. Lightning earrings with flat backing so they can lay down on the couch for a snooze without being poked with every turn of their head. Maison Miru I have a number of piercings in my ears (including these!) and wear my Maison Miru earrings daily. They don't tarnish or feel too heavy — it's not even an issue to sleep or workout in them! They're one of my go-to brands for delicate jewelry. Get them from Maison Miru for $85+ (available in gold or silver). 41. A ceramic mug and saucer set that'll help them get their head out of the clouds and come back down to earth with every sip of coffee they take. Caffeine is queen, baby.

I saw this in a TikTok video and the reality is even better." — Sev Luke Get it from Amazon for $23.98+ (available in 17 styles). 42. Bacon strip bandages — because they're an adult and know a kiss won't actually make their scrape better, but a bandage that looks like their favorite burger topping just might. Accoutrements is a small business. Promising review:"I bought these for my grandson, who can eat a pound of bacon daily if you let him. He thought they were great. They made him happy; that's all that matters." — Alicyn Torregrossa Get it from Amazon for $14.49. 43. A strawberry sweater vest they'll love berry, berry much — they can wear it on its own or layer it over a dress shirt for a more adult-like vibe that'll still put their childhood wardrobe to shame. Promising review:"This sweater works great for work and for going out. Super cute and can wear it any time of the year." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in women's sizes S–L). 44. Yoga Joes they can use to set up an *army* of zen and flexible lil' guys that'll keep them company at their desk until they can escape work and head to their fave studio for some soothing stretching. Amazon Yoga Joes is a small business! Promising review:"I love these guys. They are amazing and a great conversation starter. I have them displayed on my desk at work." — C.E. Get them from Amazon for $24.99. 45. A"Gracula" garlic crusher they might accidentally mistaken for a children's toy — but it's so much more! With a few twists they can use it to mince garlic, ginger, nuts, chilis, and herbs. See, no need to be afraid of this mythical creature. Promising review: "I love this little guy. I found him on a BuzzFeed list and had to have it as soon as I saw it! I've minced as many as five cloves in it in seconds. It's a little tricky getting all of the garlic out once minced (I use a silicone basting brush to get most of it but I always use more than the recipe calls for anyway so it's not a deal breaker). Cleanup is a breeze because he goes right in the dishwasher!" — Barbie Get it from Amazon for $17.95. 46. A Bluetooth speaker with an adorable '90s feel to it they can program with fun pixelated messages, a clock, and animations galore!

BuzzFeed editor Jenae Sitzes loves hers! You can read more on why it's one of her favorite pieces of desk decor here. Promising reviews: "I actually impulsively purchased this because I saw it on TikTok. I have had it for a little over a month now, and it is actually the best item I have purchased in a while. I admit, there is a slight learning curve when setting it up because there is not a clear-cut instructions guide for all of the features, but once you figure it out, it's so worth it. It is really multifunctional and you can customize it to your liking. I really love the mini games feature on here, like Tetris and Snake, because they all bring back childhood memories for me. My favorite part is the fact that it works as a speaker and when I play music, I can have little videos sync to the music. Who knew a tiny little speaker could bring me so much joy. It is a bit pricy though, but it is just so cute. If you're looking for a sign to buy this, here's your sign." — Khuyen Nguyen Get it from Amazon for $69.99 (available in five colors). 47. A darling glass water jug adorned in daisies that are s'cute they'll make them long for springtime all the time. Amazon Promising review:"Bought this to encourage my girlfriend to drink more water, and it worked, lol. And she's always telling me how she gets compliments from the 'girlies' in college. A great purchase." — Azi Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in six styles). 48. A set of moisturizing animal-themed sheet masks they won't be able to resist belly laughing over when they apply them — they can team up with their friends for a very strange spa night and get those giggles out! Promising review: "I bought these to do a spa day with my niece. We had so much fun, and my face was soft for days afterward. I enjoyed them so much that I bought them again and gave them out for Christmas. Then I bought another set for myself and even shared with co-workers. I don't think it is just the face mask that makes my face look brighter, but also the joy and fun of the prints when you wear them with family and friends." — Nina M Munoz-Najera Get a set of six from Amazon for $14.95 (available in six packs). 49. Or SKIN1004 Zombie Pack Face Masks that'll make them temporarily look like a zombie (though not QUITE as terrifying as the ones chasing down Pedro Pascal in The Last of Us). This entertaining mask will tighten their pores and minimizing the appearance of wrinkles while providing them with the opportunity to take some *very* silly selfies. Promising review:"Smells great! This face mask does exactly what it says. My skin is nice and lifted, hydrated, noticeable reduction in fine lines, improved texture, reduced my pore size, and eliminated some newly developed rough patches forming around the hairline. Couldn't be more satisfied with this product! I have pretty good skin for 37, but this mask has really helped take my skin to the next level." — Samantha Get a box of eight masks from Amazon for $18.75. 50. A jewelry box designed to look like a frosted cake you'd imagine a toddler diving into hands-first on their birthday. It's likely what you would find in the dictionary next to "pretty in pink" and simply deserves a spot in their home. 2FACEDCAKES / Etsy 2FACEDCAKES is a small business that sells nostalgic, handmade jewelry boxes. Promising review:"It's even better than I could have hoped!!!

A Nintendo Switch OLED with a 7-inch screen, a wide adjustable stand, enhanced audio, and an overall pleasant gaming experience they'll be thrilled to play. They can kickstart their "cozy gamer" lifestyle by purchasing wholesome games like Stardew Valley or the lesser-known Wylde Flowers (trust me). nintendo / Via Heather Braga / BuzzFeed I have the Nintendo Switch OLED and am a big fan! My husband has the original Switch and I have the Switch Lite, but this newest version has definitely made a good impression on me. I wasn't always enthused with the original version (my hands are small!) but, despite this one being similar in size, the OLED feels a lot lighter and easy to hold. The colors are the screen are beautiful and *so* clear. It connects very easily to the TV, so you can play multiplayer games at any time! Promising review:"Starting off The OLED switch takes things to the next level. I used to play a lot of Mario games many years before, and I didn't think I'd ever go back to playing Mario again. Nintendo has made it easy to play a lot of my favorite Mario games from back in the day through the online store. Amazon helped ensure that I had confidence with the delivery of my package, they sent me an OTP password through email to help ensure my package was delivered to the right person. I am very grateful to Amazon for helping provide me with a wonderful experience." — Jose A. Hernandez Get it from Amazon for $349 (available in two styles). 52. A delicate initial necklace for anyone who prefers simple jewelry they can wear every day. Get your own initial, your partner's, your little one's, or allllll of the above! Amazon ...or so you can scream-sing the Taylor Swift lyrics "I want to wear his initial on a chain 'round my neck not because he owns me but 'cause he really knows me." Either way! Fab item. Promising review:"The best necklace I've ever had!!! It's the perfect size and length, so dainty! I was worried about the gold fading (because it's so wonderfully affordable) but it hasn't — not even a little bit!!! I've worn it every single day for about a month now, even accidentally wore it in a pool for a little bit but nothing happened and it's never been damaged! Has become such a staple for me and my everyday outfit, don't feel complete without it anymore. Would highly recommend and will be buying another if this one ever breaks!!" — Brittany Burrahm Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in 26 letters and 2 styles). 53. And stylish Beats Studio Pro headphones that'll be worth the splurge, I promise. They have built-in spatial audio (it creates a surround sound–like experience), over 40 hours of battery, noise-canceling and transparency modes, and are ridiculously easy to pair via Bluetooth. Heather Braga / BuzzFeed I got the Beats Solo 4 headphones for Christmas and was so excited that 1. they were pink and 2. to really try out my first pair of over-the-ear headphones. The sound quality was fabulous compared to the earbuds I've always used, but I was a little displeased with how the ear cups felt over my ears. I felt like I couldn't wear them for long periods of time or that I needed to take my earrings off to feel more comfortable. Then I was offered the chance to test out the Beats Studio Pro headphones (the ones Kim Kardashian helped design) and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to compare the two styles. Right off the bat I prefer the Studio Pros, solely because the ear cups are a bit larger and cushier — they are so comfy I can easily wear them for hours and nearly forget they're on my head. They charge quickly and *stay* charged for what feels like forever. It took me two seconds to connect them to both my computer and my phone *and* it's extremely easy to swap between the two. I'm an immediate fan and, honestly, can't see myself using another set of headphones possibly ever. Get them from Amazon: in sandstone for $349 and moon, dune, or earth for $179.99.

Promising review: "This coloring book is a wonderful way to unwind and de-stress. The illustrations feature familiar, cozy corners that are both charming and relaxing to color. The designs are intricate enough to keep you engaged but not overly complicated, making it perfect for both adults and teens. The quality of the paper is great, holding up well to colored pencils, markers, and gel pens.

Promising review: "I absolutely love this stuff. I was skeptical at first, but after my first use, I fell in love. It goes on smoothly and doesn't drip off, which is nice. Once it was time to rinse off, i t was amazing seeing all the stuff it sucked out of my pores (gross, but a good gross). Not only does this stuff work, it's fun to watch and see your face turn into a Smurf lol. I have cystic acne, which in itself is hard to manage, but this stuff made it that much more manageable. Face was left feeling cleansed, refreshed, and soft. LOVE LOVE this product. Highly highly recommend." — HarleyMama Get it from Amazon for $19.99. 3. A two-piece lounge set so cozy and elevated that even looking at it makes me feel smug and snuggly at the same time?? (Is "smuggly" a valid emotion now???) This is perfect both for lounging around the house and as an easy "I need to be put together, but out the door fast" outfit option. Promising review:"I have received many compliments on this two-piece se t. They wash up nicely and I air dry them as most of my clothes.

Great functionality as you can wear it to relax and watch Netflix all day long or go shopping or travel. Great value for the money the material is an appropriate thickness where it is not too heavy, but yet gives you some warmth." — rupert Get it from Amazon for $46.99 (available in women's sizes S–XL and 12 colors). 4. A set of delightfully ~~tingly~~ self-heating soothing foot masks made with Epsom salts, lavender, and peppermint perfect for anyone whose recent step count is "too many." Nothing like a lil' self-care on those aching feet to lift your spirits! Check out a TikTok of the foot masks in action. 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 $15.87. 5. A ginormous fluffy king-sized "holy grail" blanket that might just ruin you for all other blankets — reviewers are obsessed with how soft, plush, and comfy this blanket feels, and how it keeps you cozy *without* overheating. You are not prepared for the lawless hygge of it all!!! Amazon Promising review: "I've lost track on how many of these I've bought. I started with one for myself and fell in love with how soft and luxurious it feels. One side is faux fur, and the other is soft fleece. Holds up well to washing. It is fairly thin, but man, does it keep you warm! The fur and the fleece both stay soft and fairly in the same state after washing/drying (the fleece side does knob up after a while, but that's typical for fleece). After I bought myself a throw, I upgraded to a twin size. Then I had to buy one for my husband, my kids, all of my dogs (note: pets WILL try to steal these from you), and even to throw on furniture. The feel is so comfortable and relaxing. A nd the price is super affordable! I have nothing bad to say about these!" — Mags Get it from Amazon fo r $57.99 (also available in smaller sizes for throws, Twin beds, and Queen beds, plus 23 colors). 6.

Promising review: "I first saw this book on TikTok and decided to look more into it. I purchased four total because I know some people holding onto things that are difficult to let go of. It's a great way to look at things from a different perspective and truly hold yourself accountable to different things in your life. I love what it stands for, and I look forward to when I burn mine after I'm done. Self-love, self-care, and meditation for a better state of mind tomorrow are always the goal. I definitely recommend it to those susceptible to change and the willingness to try things differently." — Brent Helm Get it from Amazon for $7.70. 7. A unique and oh-so-decadent Otherland candle for anyone who adores classic, welcoming scent profiles with whimsical twists. These candles push the box on your regular florals and fruits by adding distinctive layers like California Fig, Chili Salt, and even Tennis Ball. 👀 🎾 Amazon Otherland is a small business that specializes in unique vegan candles. Here's what my beloved fellow BuzzFeeder/soul twin Heather Braga has to say about it: " I'm SUCH a fan of Otherland candles. I've been burning them in my home for years and, honestly, cannot get enough of them. I've given tons of them as gifts as well, and everyone has always raved about how much they love them. They each have a burn time of 55 hours, are made of a coconut and soy wax blend, contain a cotton wick, and are hand poured in the US." Get it from Amazon for $30 (available in 14 scents). 8. And a vintage-inspired crystal candle warmer to add some timeless, cozy glam in your living room or bedroom without worrying about an open flame. Promising review: "This looks even prettier in person! Works great, very easy setup, and beautiful with the basic lighting as well as the colorful setting.

An Ugg-inspired suede mule slipper with all the comfort and cuteness of the iconic, wildly popular Tasman style, but at less than half the price and with half sizes (!!) available. Even if that wasn't enough to sway you... the OG version is sold out all over, and who knows how long that restock is going to take to hit. Promising review: "Great slipper. Easily compares to my Uggs for so much less. Run long and narrow. I can comfortably wear them with socks or without." — Laurie Get it from Amazon for $49.99+ (available in women's sizes 6–11, wide sizes, and five colors). 11. Murdle, Volume 1, a true essential for anyone who relaxes to true crime podcasts or Only Murders in the Building. The book is full of murder 100 mystery-themed logic puzzles with four different levels of difficulty that you can do solo or with pals, and in order or out of order (although if you do it in order, you get the full scoop on Deductive Logico and Inspector Irratino, whose hilarious misadventures guide you through the book). The best part?? Once you finish "Murdling," you can use your sleuthing skills on Volume 2, Volume 3, and a whole BUNCH of other themed Murdle books! Promising review: "The puzzles are a lot of fun but the characters, story lines, and other details take the Murdle experience to another level.

The instructions are easy to follow, and the ability to use any juice at all means you can make some really unique flavors.
