The scent is lovely — it has depth with a hint of floral, but it's light and not at all overpowering. My favorite thing about it is how easily it pairs with other scents, because I am a body mist gremlin who swaps out her scents every day. The lather is also deeply satisfying and I feel quite refreshed and squeaky clean without ever feeling dry." Promising review:"Cremo's body wash is nothing short of exceptional. If you're a fan of luxurious fragrances, this product will quickly become your new favorite. It boasts an incredible scent that perfectly mimics Baccarat Rouge 540 — a fragrance renowned for its sophisticated and captivating aroma.

Promising reviews: " I saw this all over TikTok/Instagram and decided to buy it because I have a lot of sebaceous filaments on my chin and nose. It's a little expensive but I took a gamble: it works! You can physically see the sebaceous filaments come out of your pores, it is not the product bunching up. My problem areas were so much smoother after using and are left with a moisturized glow. I then proceeded to have my boyfriend use this product to see if it worked this good on everyone on the first try and it worked on his nose as well. Amazing stuff. 🩷" — Losa "I have hyperpigmentation and oily skin. I feel this product regulates my oil production and it helps my makeup look so flawless. 10/10." — MissKayMae Get it from Amazon for $19.90 (available in two sizes). 8.

My colleague Emma Lord can vouch for this:" I am not a new human to the tubing mascara game, and in fact 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 E.l.f. tubing mascara 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 wearing 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). 10.

Plus, it smells downright divine. Promising review: "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 through 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 Get it from Amazon for $13+ (available in two sizes and four other formulas). 11. Winky Lux Flower Balm to give your lips a subtle (and custom!) pink tint based on your unique pH levels. It also has a lovely moisturizing effect, so you'll knock out *two* steps in your routine with *one* product. Amazon Promising review: "I loved this color-changing balm!!!!!!!

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 $4.48. 13. Medicube Deep Vitamin C Golden Capsule Face Moisturizer, a holy-grail product that contains tiny liposome capsules you can pop open on your skin to help brighten and smooth your complexion. Get ready for a punch of vitamin C and niacinamide that'll leave your skin positively radiant! Promising review: "This moisturizer is one of the nicest feeling moisturizers ever. The appearance of the vitamin C capsules inside the gel goop on TikTok enticed me to purchase it for myself. This moisturizer has a gel-like consistency and comes with a scooper, making it very easy to apply. You get a decent-sized jar of moisturizer for the price, and the moisturizer is pretty thick. Although it is sticky, I would say it absorbs into your skin pretty quickly. It may leave a slight sticky residue behind, but I think overall it is amazing for all skin types. After using this in the a.m. before sunscreen, I noticed my skin really glow and feel smooth! I had gifted a jar to my 60-year-old mother and she had told me how her skin felt like a baby's bum the next morning!" — tracey + kiwi Get it from Amazon for $19.90. 14. Or!!!

I use it as the last step in my daytime routine, and it feels like it locks all my serums and toners in. At night, I put a thicker moisturizer on top, and it helps hydrate my skin while I sleep. The texture is so unusual and I love using the spatula to frost my face with it. I also love the fragrance, and it doesn't irritate my sensitive skin." — Kindle Customer Get it from Amazon for $14.90 (also available in a smaller size). 15. A SeoulCeuticals toner mist, which will earn a *permanent* spot in your beauty routine once you experience its dewy effects. This skincare juggernaut is made up of 98% naturally derived ingredients such as soothing aloe, rejuvenating cucumber, and antioxidant-rich green tea that'll make your skin glow like never before. It hydrates, plumps, and helps treat blemishes while preventing future breakouts. SeoulCeuticals is a small skincare business that was founded in 2017 by a husband and wife team.

For folks having concerns about coverage issue, I understand. I have been applying it by going in many circles over my face and seem to be successful with no problems.

I can use both morning and night with no irritation. After a few days of this, my skin started clearing up! I put some in a travel spray bottle and take it when I'm flying.

Eight Saints is a woman-owned small business that uses only eight plant-based ingredients in their skincare products. Promising review: "Feels fantastic on your skin. It spreads nicely and soaks right in as if your face has just been cleansed rather than having put a moisturizer on. Your face feels clean, not suffocated like so many other creams. Similar to a gel, yet even more lightweight. It feels like it belongs there, not like a foreign body clinging to your skin. The improvement of the texture, the tone, the moisture, the elasticity, the blotches and pores — ALL OF IT — major improvement! I can't believe I did not take pictures!

So she set out to listen to the most common makeup struggles and develop tools to make application easier for everyone! Promising review:"I have extremely hooded Asian eyelids and shaky hands so eyeliner has kind of always been insurmountable to me and I had pretty much given up on it before trying this. I bought it with hopes it would work but it's now an actual game-changer in my makeup routine. Upon first attempt, I was able to do winged eyeliner for each eye in under five min., and the eyeliner has not budged since application.

Velamo Advanced Beauty is a small biz that specializes in personal care products. Promising review:"The older I get, the more I need extra moisture in my face. I've been reading about this product and saw so many "good" reviews that I thought I'd give it a try. I only wish I had discovered this product years ago. I've only been using it a couple of weeks and have noticed a big difference in my fine lines and dryness, especially around my sensitive eye area. There's no scent, which is a huge plus. I have sensitive skin and it doesn't irritate it at all. I will continue using this product for as long as I keep seeing good results.

Let me tell you, I am SO obsessed. The photos above are from when I tried it out for the first time after having very little sleep the previous night (and, if I'm being honest, many nights prior, as my baby girl is not a fan of sleep in general). It felt super creamy as I applied it to my skin. The diamond-shaped tip of the stick helped me "draw" it into the curves of my face as needed. The Shape Tape blur conceal brush also blew me away — it felt so soft against my face and felt like using a magic wand to blend in the concealer. I didn't even need to apply a second dose to minimize my undereye bags! Consider me a lifelong fan." Get it from Tarte for $29 (available in 44 shades).

With a top coat, it lasts almost perfectly for about five days, but chips are not very noticeable, so you can easily wear it for longer! I also feel confident in this brand's use of healthier, higher-quality ingredients, which makes it well worth the extra cost. My nails aren't left damaged by this product, and it has become my go-to when I don't have the time for a full-color look but still want my nails to look polished and pretty!" — Sofia K Get it from Amazon for $15 (available in nine shades). 7.

It's solidly made but glides smoothly and smells incredible! I just LOVE how it doesn't leave my skin oily but soft and well-hydrated. I get complimented on my skin often and I feel as though this Palmer's product is the reason for the overall radiant appearance.

Promising review: "Heaven sent for your skin; heavenly scent to enjoy. This feels absolutely amazing going on. Gets absorbed quickly, for a lotion rich with oil.

We are not allowed to wear perfume at school due to allergies, and this works perfectly. The best part is that after you do wash your hands, you can still feel the lotion! My cuticles are staying moisturized, too. I am going to get more for home and the car." — Chianti Get it from Amazon for $19.95. 19. And Blistex Medicated Lip Balm for anyone whose lips are so cracked and dry that it's time to call in the beauty cavalry — this creamy (SPF 15!) lip protectant is designed to lock in moisture and provide immediate soothing relief. Note that the AAD recommends using at least SPF 30 and reapplying as needed for proper skin protection. You can read about sunscreen myths and facts from dermatologists for more information! Promising review:"I've tried over 20–30 different lip balms, but this one is the best, especially in winter time. Rather than being a lip balm, this product is so effective that it almost feels like a cure." — shangus Get it from Amazon for $3.79. 20. A set of compression gloves reviewers swear by for helping aches and pains from arthritis, carpal tunnel, neuropathy, and general overuse (it's giving ✨works all day on a laptop✨). Promising review: "I have both osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis in both hands, but this winter I smashed my right hand and badly damaged cartilage in the knuckle joints. I wish I had found these gloves sooner because they feel so supportive and allow me to move my fingers without pain, so much so that I really don't want to take them off. The little booklet that accompanied the gloves is good, and I will start doing the exercises they recommend." — Kindle Customer Get a set from Amazon for $15.95 (available in five sizes and four colors). 21. And a knee stabilizer band for knee pain relief both in the short term *and* long term, whether you get it from running, hiking, team sports, or jumping up and down every time you hear a Bruno Mars song start playing at a wedding reception. Promising review:"I have chronic pain. First in my low back, then my neck, now my right foot and both knees. I've tried everything to try to support my knees. Those one-size-fits-all knee braces that cover the whole knee, those knee sleeves that cover the whole knee, a patella brace with a strap for the thigh and just below the knees with a padding that covered the back of my knee. Nothing worked AND was comfortable. They all shifted and chafed. About to give up I tried this. It fit comfortably under my jeans, it doesn't shift around. I can wear it all day, I can go up and down stairs without pain, and I've even noticed improvement in my lower back as well. I'm very pleased!" — Angela Get a set of two from Amazon for $9.99 (available in seven colors). 22. Color Wow's Money Mist, a leave-in conditioning treatment and heat protectant you can apply before styling to give your hair a soft, luscious, quiet luxury kind of shine. Color Wow's Dream Coat Supernatural Spray already broke BeautyTok a few years back when its magical anti-humidity powers hit the scene, so it's no wonder this new blend packs such a powerful moisturizing, de-frizzing punch. Promising review:"This is the BEST product I have used on my hair! I have my roots touched up every four weeks to keep the platinum blonde (helping hide gray hairs better), and Color Wow Money Mist showed an instant difference just blow drying. There is zero frizz, and my hair is shiny, soft, and beyond healthy looking! My new forever hair love right here!!!!" — Mary Get it from Amazon for $14+ (available in two sizes). 23. Medicube Deep Vitamin C Golden Capsule Face Moisturizer for a K-beauty staple that's almost a little *too* fun to use — it comes with liposome capsules you can pop on your skin, helping oxidize, brighten, and smooth your complexion with the added burst of concentrated vitamin C and niacinamide. This is designed to have both instant *and* lasting results, with many reviewers noting an immediate difference in skin's radiance after the first use! Promising review: "This moisturizer is one of the nicest feeling moisturizers ever. The appearance of the vitamin C capsules inside the gel goop on TikTok enticed me to purchase it for myself. This moisturizer has a gel like consistency and comes with a scooper, making it very easy to apply. You get a decent sized jar of moisturizer for the price, and the moisturizer is pretty thick. Although it is sticky, I would say it absorbs in your skin pretty quickly. I t may leave a slight sticky residue left behind, but I think overall it is amazing for all skin types. After using this in the a.m. before sunscreen, I noticed my skin really glow and feel smooth! I had gifted a jar to my 60 year old mother and she had told me how her skin felt like a baby's bum the next morning!" — tracey + kiwi Get it from Amazon for $19.90. 24. A pack of drug-free Breathe Right nasal strips reviewers quite literally claim " saved their marriage" — these provide instant snoring *and* congestion relief by increasing nasal airflow. Bonus: there's an optional "scratch and sniff" lavender scent if you want an extra dose of calm. Promising review:"This product is a true gem. I'm eight months pregnant, and due to the baby pressing on my diaphragm, I've begun to snore terribly. My poor husband is a light sleeper, so I needed to figure something out. I started applying this at night, and he says he doesn't hear a peep out of me! If you have trouble sleeping or snoring, this is something you need." — Raevyn Get a box of 26 strips from Amazon for $11.29. 25. Naked Sundays CabanaClear SPF 50 Water Gel Serum with an ultra-hydrating, "invisible" blend so absorbent and so good at playing nice with makeup that it'll feel like you never put it on in the first place. If you are serious about protecting your skin, this holy grail SPF-packed base layer is the way to go. Note that the AAD recommends using at least SPF 30 and reapplying as needed for skin protection. You can read about sunscreen myths and facts from dermatologists for more information! Promising review: "I use SPF cream regularly, and I can say that it really does its job. The cream has a pleasant texture, absorbs quickly, and doesn't leave a greasy shine or white residue, which is a big plus for me. It also provides reliable protection, even under direct sunlight. After several hours in the sun, there's no redness or irritation, which speaks to the product's effectiveness. Moreover, the SPF cream can be a great base for makeup, as it doesn't affect the texture of foundation." — Karina Kostiuk Get it from Amazon for $20.99. 26. A bottle of Elizavecca hair treatment, an Olaplex-like repairing mask infused with collagen ingredients and protein extracts that will help restore hair health and reduce shedding when that winter dryness is coming for your 'do. All you gotta do is apply it on wet hair after a shampoo, wait five minutes, and rinse it out. This is designed to work on all hair types, with reviewers with 2b to 4c curls mentioning it worked for them! Promising review:"I have been buying this for a long time for me and my daughter. I have thin, curly hair but it gets dry in the winter and this really brings it back to life. My daughter has THICK and super curly hair and it keeps her hair so hydrated (we use it as a mask every two weeks on her). Highly recommend." — Marina M. Check out BuzzFeed's full review of the Elizavecca hair treatment for more deets! Get a bottle from Amazon for $7.87. 27. A pack of unscented SweatBlock wipes that work for up to *seven days* after application — perfect for those of us whose underarms are a little, uh, enthusiastic, to say the least. Reviewers especially swear by this for events that might bring on nervous sweating! Amazon SweatBlock is a small business that specializes in antiperspirant products. Psst — you should definitely "patch test" this on a small area of skin before putting it on to ensure you don't have any reaction! Promising review:"Was pretty skeptical. Bought it and it's changed my life. First use and I did not sweat, at all, for probably a week. I had already been using Lume deodorant for a few years now and was looking for something else as I felt I'm building a resistance to it. I should've been using this to begin with. Second application I applied to other areas of my body, zero sweat. Amazed." — Hanna L. Hetz Get a 10-pack from Amazon for $19.99 (each box lasts two months). 28. First Aid Beauty's Facial Radiance Pads, a set of compostable (!!) beauty prep pads you can use before putting on makeup to gently tone and exfoliate your skin, making it the ultimate primer for getting the most out of your foundation. Bonus — unlike a lot of toning products, these are super gentle and sensitive skin-friendly! Amazon Promising review: "I love this product! It definitely is worth the price. Helps clear my skin and smoothes my skin texture. No smell or fragrance. I used it daily after washing my face. This is part of my staple." — Susan Bean Get a set of 28 from Amazon for $16.20. 29. A quick-dry anti-chafing "Fresh Breasts" lotion that absorbs wetness like *snaps fingers* THAT, helping prevent chafing, aching, rashes, and soreness in your poor, unsuspecting underboob region. Fresh Body is a small business that specializes in personal care products. Promising review:"This stuff is amazing. I am a sweaty person. Apparently I have no thermostat because randomly I will just start sweating and it's a lot. Well, I ended up with yeast under my breasts, and it gets red and sore. After you shower, dry off real well and apply this cream (a little dab will do ya) under your breasts and say goodbye to the inflammation and soreness. I also use in down there region too. I will be buying this forever." — Deb Warwick Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (available in multiple pack sizes). 30. A roll-on migraine stick made with peppermint, spearmint, and lavender oils to help you soothe away headaches, which frankly have a lot of audacity interrupting your day. 31. Or a migraine relief beanie — this gets icy *and* hot depending on what kind of relief you're looking for, and double as a sleep mask so you can block out harsh light or try to get some shut-eye for further relief. Amazon IceBeanie is a small business that specializes in cold therapy products. Read more about how temperature therapy can help with migraine prevention at Mayo Clinic. Promising review:"I don't usually write reviews but this thing is literally a game changer. Amazing quality, so comfortable to wear, and it really helps me to relax and also when I have a headache. This is top shelf. I am so happy with my purchase!" — Bonnie Boughton Get it from Amazon for $41.99+ (available in two colors). 32. A hair identifier spray to make shaving or dermaplaning *that* much more efficient — this not only highlights where your hair is so you don't miss a spot, but also moisturizes and protects skin while you're shaving. This is also a great way to ensure you aren't *over*-shaving areas, since you'll know right away if the hair is taken care of! Amazon Promising review:"The power of the hair identifier's spray is unmatchable. Once you spray in any direction that has hair, it automatically identifies the hair that needs to be removed. It is easily sprayed on and easily wiped off. No extra residue. Comes with four blades and I say these blades are soft gentle, and yet get the job done. Not sure why no one ever thought of coming up with a hair identifier spray. Great value and smells like baby powder. Great quality." — Karine Get it from Amazon for $9.99. 33. A set of chic car tissue dispensers you can slide right into the cup holder for easy access when you need to clean up a little spill, a kid's nose, or all the other miscellaneous "woopsies!" that happen on the road. Amazon Promising review: " Too often we would buy the regular square tissue boxes to place in car, only to have them smashed and trashed as they were moved. So I searched for a package I could place in beverage holder in car. I found these, purchased, and there's no more mess. I've received many compliments on them from passengers about how beautiful the containers are and that they fit perfectly. Great quality. I highly recommend!!!" — Lindys Merdinger Get a set of four from Amazon for $13.99 (available in two styles). 34. An easy-to-hold detangling brush from TikTok-beloved brand Kitsch — this elevated version is suitable for all hair types to quickly and oh-so-gently detangle hair and prevent breakage, whether you're brushing wet or dry. Amazon, Promising review: "This is one of the best brushes I've ever owned. It's the perfect size and super gentle on curly hair. I love that I can brush my hair easily and fast with no pain and my hair does not break. I highly recommend getting this brush." — Veronica E. Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (available in three colors). 35. A set of Sea Bands, which target an acupressure point on your wrists meant to help reduce nausea — a must-have for anyone who gets motion sick on long car rides, cruises, buses, and trains. Promising review:"These were awesome! My entire family suffers from motion sickness, especially carsickness. My little one gets sick in the car on a regular car ride through the city. So I knew that a long road trip was going to be a disaster. I was amazed at how well these bands worked for everyone! Not one single person complained about being sick for 12 hours in the car. I have suffered for decades and now I know better. I will never travel without mine again!" — 1SmartCookie Get a set of two from Amazon for $8.05. 36. Compound W Wart Removal Pads infused with concentrated wart removal medication to reduce the size and eliminate warts in a matter of days. A lot of reviewers turned to these after professional wart removals didn't work for them and saw much better results! You should change the pads every 48 hours, and note that they do not work on moles, birthmarks, warts with hair growing from them, genital warts, or facial warts. The brand notes that you should not use this product if you have diabetes or poor blood circulation. Promising review:"These work amazingly well! I had taken my daughter to the dermatologist and paid a hefty amount for them to burn a wart off of her arm. It didn't get rid of it; they only made it smaller, and they recommended a follow-up appointment. Then I found these! She wore one overnight, and literally the next day, it was smaller to almost nothing. Looked just like a small scar. Now it's completely gone after wearing it only two times. One time overnight and the next day. That's all! I will never try any other treatment for warts except for this!" — Cole Hagele Get a pack of 14 from Amazon for $7.29. 37. A pack of super thin hydrocolloid cold sore healing patches to help speed up healing and relieve some of the itch and "ouch!" of a breakout as fast as possible. Promising review:"I wish I had found these sooner!! These cold sores were probably the worst I've had and wouldn't clear up or stop itching/hurting. I googled cold sore remedies, and these happened to pop up. After reading the reviews, I immediately ordered them. They came right on time, and I put them on before bed last night. It's been less than 36 hours, and these cold sores are already healing beautifully. I plan to order another pack or three, so I can keep one at home, one in my purse, and one in my locker at work so if I ever feel the warning tingle/itching of a new breakout, I can slap one of these bad boys on and get rid of it quickly! Highly recommend for my fellow cold sore sufferers." — Jessica Hill Get a pack of 15 from Amazon for $13.47. 38.

This is quicker, easier, and will be a huge relief for those of us waxy individuals who sometimes wake up in the morning with an ear so fully clogged up that it feels like you're underwater. Y'all, this stuff is no joke — you can check out the earwax removal kit customer reviews to see the GOBS it is taking outta people's canals. Promising review:"My right ear has been plugged up for months. I squirted warm water in there, peroxide, tried various ear scraper tools, then just gave up. A month or so later, I saw this product at a local CVS, and gave it a try. Laid on couch with several drops in my ear for a half hour. I could hear weird fizzing noises. Then I flushed warm water in my ear with the included soft bulb syringe, and out came the culprit. Had to have been deep in there." — fixitforgood Get it from Amazon for $8.12. 39. A Squatty Potty, one of those internet-famous stools you can put at the base of your toilet to prop your feet up on while you ~go~. The placement helps align your colon to make the process a whole lot easier and faster — like, 20 seconds compared to several minutes! — so you don't end up watching all of TikTok while you're waiting yourself out. Amazon Psst — a lot of reviewers with chronic constipation and other gastrointestinal issues that get them ~backed up~ swear by this! Read more about constipation relief at home, including using a squatting position, at Cleveland Clinic. Promising review:"This is a game changer. I was skeptical, but this thing REALLY works! Since we started using this about a week ago, we have noticed significantly less abdominal pain, bloating/gas, and increased gut health. I highly recommend this to everyone!" — emily a Get it from Amazon for $21.45+ (available in three sizes). 40. CeraVe's Hydrating cleanser made with hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and glycerin — aka, all the good stuff to hydrate your face and remove makeup and oil without stripping your skin of its natural moisture. Psst — a lot of reviewers with sensitive skin and acne swear by this, because it's super gentle *and* super effective. I SWEAR by this facial cleanser. I used to be pretty acne-prone, but after I switched to this (which I follow up with the snail mucin essence in the evenings), my skin lost that rough "bumpy" texture from the tiny acne clusters and stayed suuuper hydrated. It's a heck of a lot easier to put my makeup on now, because my skin isn't randomly crusty or overly-moisturized. It also just feels really good on my skin! Promising review:"Got this after seeing a recommendation on TikTok. It's been a lifesaver for me. I have dry, red, sensitive, acne-prone skin. Most cleansers strip my skin, but not this one. It's been helping keep my skin clear while not drying it for a few months now. If you have dry skin this is a must!" — L. Ashburne Get it from Amazon for $13.29. 41. A stainless-steel tongue scraper that a lot of reviewers bought to prevent bad breath, but ended up loving even *more* because it made their mouth feel so squeaky clean (and, in a lot of cases, made their taste buds experience flavor a lot more intensely!). Basic Concepts is a small business that specializes in personal care products, home goods, and office essentials. Promising review:"My husband and I have been using this product for a couple months now and we both think it is worth the purchase. It is not a magic fixer for bad breath or lack of oral hygiene but paired with a good dental hygiene routine we have noticed a positive difference such as fresher breath for longer and fresher breath upon waking in the morning. It is easy to clean, and the shape prevents gagging. All in all the product is definitely worth it." — Brimichelle Get it from Amazon for $8.99. 42. A belted portable cordless vibrating heating pad to ease your cramps and pains (*glares pointedly at my uterus*) and/or keep you nice and cozy on chillier days. The fact that it looks vaguely like a piece of superhero armor is just an added perk. Check out a TikTok of the heating pad in action. Reviewers note you should definitely wear it *over* your clothes! Promising review: "Oh my god. This might be the best thing I have ever bought. It gets so incredibly warm. You do need to wear it over clothes to prevent burns but as someone who never finds any heat pack warm enough the lowest setting is exceptionally hot. As someone who has really bad menstrual cramps and chronic constipation this little belt does it all. The heat is so soothing and adjustable and heats up so fast. The vibration is my favorite part. It helps so much with trapped gas and bloating pains. The various patterns and heat combinations allow this to be truly customizable to however you feel at the time and it's fantastic. Absolutely worth every cent." — Chloe Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in 11 colors). Reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.
