A new $20 buy from Kmart calmed my frantic, stressed mind in seconds
A $20 lamp has emerged as an unlikely favourite at Kmart this week, with the unique buy dubbed a 'hero' among the luxe new August Living collection. The Water Ripple Light, which is inspired by the trending ambient décor trend of late, projects 'soothing' wave patterns onto walls in different colours. The ripple effect is thought to transform any room into a 'calm and ambient' space, with many shoppers already reporting 'instant relaxation' and 'serenity'. Perfect for weary office workers and frantic parents, the light also comes with 16 colour options, boasts a five-hour run time after charging and has adjustable brightness for 'different moods'. The light also has intuitive touch control, a wireless remote and easy USB charging. While it may seem like a bit of a novelty 'fad', research has reported significant benefits of waterscapes and water-themed lighting on psychological health. These include a potential reduction in anxiety, a boost in creativity and a noticeable positive impact on insomnia, burnout and stress. As always, it's best to visit a health professional if you are struggling with any of these conditions or symptoms. The quirky lamp has already sold out online - but it's not the only light at Kmart causing a buzz recently. The Kmart LED Light with Sensor, $12, has been a popular buy since its launch and has received more than 120 five-star reviews. The light panel contains four white LED lights with an adhesive strip on the back that can be affixed to walls and other surfaces for an instant touch of luxury. Many creative shoppers have positioned them underneath benches, counters and cupboards to create an up-lit effect. 'Love this light, it looks amazing under the kitchen cupboard and adds a little bit of class,' noted one. One mum added that the lights have 'worked wonders' in her home, especially in the corridor, which is usually too dark to walk through to the bathroom in the middle of the night. 'My son is afraid of the dark. I placed the LED sensor lights in the corridor for him to help light his way if he ever needs to use the toilet at night. They have worked wonders. Everyone in the family is happy... it has saved my sleep,' she raved. Another way that DIY enthusiasts have used the light is to create a spotlight effect on feature points. The quirky lamp has already sold out online - but it's not the only light at Kmart causing a buzz recently.

While some shoppers appreciated the light for its aesthetic capabilities, others were impressed by it on a purely practical level. The only complaint was that the product is so popular, it's often sold out. 'Shame that these are so hard to come by as they are fantastic,' a disappointed shopper wrote.
