The coldest, most dreary months of the year are behind us. It's time to reward ourselves with sunshine, warmth, and alllllll of the treats.

My colleague Emma Lord loves these! Here's her review:

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!

When I tell you this had been on my wish list for like a year, I'm not kidding. For some reason, I couldn't bring myself to spend $25 on a fragrance mist, but I was SO enticed. Finally, after putting it in an article at the beginning of last year year and seeing how many BuzzFeed readers had purchased it, I decided it was time to just do it. This stuff really smells so good...like I want to bathe in it and might cry when it runs out because the price point pains me a bit, but I just can't be without this stuff now that I own it. Now, I will say when it comes to going out for special occasions, I stick with perfume instead, but this is great for those casual days where you want to still smell DELICIOUS but don't want to feel like you're wearing an overpowering perfume either. 

Promising review: "It smells fresh and clean. Exactly what I was looking for. I bought some expensive Dolce perfume, but this body mist is stepping on necks. TRUST ME. No need to layer this scent unless you want to." —Noel

I've tried the majority of popular reusable water bottles on the market — and I can say good/not-so-good things about all of them, except for Owala — which I can only sing my praises for. Let me start by saying, that it's rare that I stick with a water bottle for longer than six months. I know, I know — then, what's the point of buying reusable water bottles? LISTEN! I am an indecisive gal who gets bored easily and a shopping editor who is easily swayed. YOU TRY BEING IN MY SHOES FOR A DAY! 

Anyway, I bought my first Owala almost a year ago and instantly fell in love with it. I am of the camp that drinking water with a straw makes it easier to drink more water throughout the day. In fact, it was part of the reason I LOVED my Simple Modern so much. Unfortunately, the Simple Modern not having any sort of straw cover started to give me the ick whenever I brought it out in public. That's where Owala SHINES. Not only does it close (which gives me immense peace of mind), but the leak-proof lock ensures water won't spill out!!! NO LEAKS EVER!!! I am on my second Owala now (because I accidentally dropped and dented my first one), but I NEVER buy a second version of the same brand...so this is HUGE. Owala has me as a customer for life now. I am obsessed. 

Promising review: "I have had so many water bottles, but I love this water bottle most out of all of them, from the GORGEOUS colors to the long-lasting cold water. I also love that there is a straw for when I want to sip and one where I can chug my water. I also love that all the spots where your mouth touches are covered. If you're looking for a new water bottle, I would get this one." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "Very handy when traveling or at the gym! I got this one after getting a different brand that is smaller. I love the extra pockets on this and the roomie section for ANY water bottle or a smaller water bottle and other stuff. The zipped pocket holds my iPhone Max just fine. Just took this on a cruise, and several people commented wishing they had one. So much easier than a backpack or something for your water bottle." —Judy

Promising review: "I think the salt has a great flavor and texture that really enhances dishes. I appreciate its quality, flake size, and value for the money." —Charlie Sims

Promising review: "YUMMY! This is the best way to eat Skittles. They just melt in your mouth, that yummy, very traditional Skittles candy flavor. They are delicious, fresh, crisp, and exactly what you want them to be! And for me, these freeze-dried candies are a good value for what you get, knowing there is an extra process to get the candies like that. For a fun, unique treat, they’re great — probably too expensive for a routine snack." —Ann

Promising review: "I have suffered from migraines my entire life, and I’m almost 50 years old. As soon as I put this pack on my head, I instantly felt relief from the five-day barometric pressure migraine I’d had. The soft design was really nice, and I love that it covered my whole head and was easy to put on. I recommend waiting a few minutes after taking it out of the freezer because it was really cold." —T.

Lamare is a Florida-based small business that specializes in planners and journals. 

Promising review: "I love love LOVE this book journal! I’ve been looking for one since last year, and this one caught my eye at the beginning of 2023. I finally decided to bite the bullet and buy it, and I am so glad I did! I would buy this book journal a million times over, I love it!" —Maddie

Promising review: "These sun catchers are so beautiful!!! I have them all over my house in windows, and they make such pretty 🌈 when the sun shines through them. They are very nice quality for the money. I'm happy with my purchase and would definitely order these again!" —Kristen

Lovoir Beauty is a small biz based in New Zealand that sells this genius winged eyeliner stamp known as The Flick Stick.

Promising review: "Got this before a trip I took a few days ago. I have never been able to do wing eyeliner properly, so I was excited to try it. It's very pigmented and goes on beautifully! I've tried other liquid eyeliners before, and they were so watery and not close to the dark black I wanted at all, but this product was great. I did my makeup and put this eyeliner on at 9 a.m., traveled two hours, walked around a city for about three hours, and it was warm so I was sweating, and then went to an NBA game. After all that time (about 16 hours!), the eyeliner was just as perfect as I had put it on! I love this product and can't wait to use it more often!" —Elizabeth

A single charge provides over 10 hours of usage, and the rechargeable case can have them fully juiced up in under two hours. 

Promising review: "These are by far the best earbuds I’ve ever used. No exaggeration. My husband had these in his Amazon cart a couple of months ago but never checked out, so I chose to get these on the sly for him. When they came in, I wanted to make sure everything was working correctly before wrapping them up for Christmas. The sound quality is absolutely perfect, and the noise cancellation is AMAZING! They were on low, and the sound was crystal clear. I asked my 6-year-old son to talk so I could see how well they canceled out noise, and I couldn’t hear him, so I told him to shout and I still couldn’t hear him at all. My husband will absolutely love these!! Also, now I need to get myself a pair as well! Definitely happy with my purchase!" —Ashley Haley

Promising review: "So nostalgic!! It's exactly the same as I remember from my childhood! My daughter LOVED this Christmas gift! It's a little loud when you're in 'play' mode, but aside from that, we're pretty obsessed." —Brittany

Caffeine has a number of skincare benefits, including brightening and temporarily reducing the appearance of stretch marks and cellulite, if that's something you're looking to do! You can read more about the skincare benefits of caffeine at the Cleveland Clinic.

Promising review: "I am 60, and I could not get rid of the cellulite on my legs. I started using this product six weeks ago and can noticeably see a difference. I apply morning and evening before bed for optimal results. It goes on smooth and has a creamy, nonsticky feel. The smell is dreamy, and even my husband has commented on the improvement. Make sure you apply in a circular motion for optimal coverage, absorption, and circulation." —Amazon Customer

Shaperx is a small business that specializes in supportive, compressive bodysuits in a variety of styles. 

Promising reviews: "SKIMS WHOOOOOO?? LOOOOOVVE a good bodysuit and have been considering Skims, but ain't no wayyyyyyy Kim is getting that much money out of me. This SHAPERX bodysuit has become my secret weapon for feeling confident and comfortable all day long without the ridiculous price tag! This bodysuit is like a magic hug; my tummy feels supported, and it even helps lift my chest! This shapewear isn't about feeling restricted. The seamless design is surprisingly comfortable, and the material is soft and breathable. I can wear it all day without feeling like I'm trapped — the sleek design makes this bodysuit perfect for layering under any outfit. My go-to for any look, and it's a thong, so you don't have to worry about the outline showing, and it doesn't ride up, so it's comfy." —Vianey

"I’ve used Skims for a few years now, and I prefer these to the Skims. They’re half the price, and the results are the same as Skims." —MG92

Get it from Amazon for $38.99 (available in women's sizes XXS–4XL and in nine colors/styles, including shorts and thong style). 

Promising reviews: "After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me. It smells great, too. Here's how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt was visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, and then used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like me." —LuckLocust

Promising reviews: "They look real, and I get a ton of compliments on them. Everyone always thinks my husband surprised me with tulips (my favorite flower) and is shocked to learn these are not real. I have several of them throughout my house, and plan to buy more because they are great!" —Abbey S.

So many pockets, really great color, easy to throw in the wash, easy to adjust the straps, and I really like how it clips in FRONT of you so you don't have to worry about anyone unclipping it from the back. Really great bag, I love it so much." —laura kulish

Promising review: "My mother-in-law had purchased one last year, and I tried hers at Christmas and fell in love with how easy it was to use. We have a lot of get-togethers with friends, and cheese is a staple appetizer at our house. So, I purchased my own and have been using it weekly since. It cuts easily and is mostly easy to clean. Sometimes cheese gets stuck in the crack, but some scrubbing with a small brush usually does the trick." —Jessica

Each book includes 50 pages of watercolor art for you to add lines, along with suggestions for what to add if you want a jumping-off point. Bonus: The pages are perforated, so you can easily tear them out and frame them! 

Promising review: "Changed my life. So I get anxious doing the adult coloring books. This was so much fun and made me really think outside of the box. I'm not the best at drawing but I felt like I was when I was a kid doodling in my textbooks in school." —Carley C.

(Psst — check out these cult-fave black fine point pens for $11.99 on Amazon for a good doodling option!) 

Promising review: "I bake a lot of scones, and having this mold ensures an attractive, consistently sized result. It is sturdier than many silicone molds I use but still is flexible, so I place a pan underneath. The fact it is silicone also saves money since I don't have to use parchment paper. You can literally pop out the scone, and cleanup is simple by hand or dishwasher, although I think better by hand." —Anne Snyder

BuzzFeed editor Heather Braga is the proud owner of this book: "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 were — 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???"

Promising review: "Sojos have been my number one choice of sunnies for years now. Even if Ray-Bans were this price, I’d still choose Sojos. They are high-end quality without the price tag, lightweight yet durable, truly polarized, fashionable, comfortable; the list goes on! They are the best of the best. Don’t hesitate, just buy them!" —maggiee.shea

Promising review: "I literally have no idea why I bought this. It was a suggested item and looked interesting, so I was like, 'LOL, OK.' I can’t believe how much I like it LOL. It looks and feels much nicer than you’d think, and the battery lasts forever. It has three shades of light, and it’s extremely bright." —K

Promising review: "I love this cold brew system. I did have an expensive Pampered Chef system, but I broke the pot. I bought this system as a replacement, and I like it much better. The coffee is great, and I have had zero problems with loose coffee grounds, even when I use bagged ground coffee instead of coarsely ground coffee, as is suggested." —Erin
