It’s a shark horse — how can you *not* feel amazed?

I'm a resident writer on the Buzzfeed Shopping team, where my love for shopping (and doomscrolling on TikTok) helps me curate lists of the most trending lifestyle, home, beauty, and fashion products.

Promising review: "These kitty coasters are the perfect blend of cute and practical! The craftsmanship is excellent, with intricate details that bring the cat design to life. They’re thick enough to protect my furniture from hot or cold drinks without being bulky. Plus, they add such a fun and cozy touch to my home decor! I’ve received so many compliments on them from guests — they’re definitely a conversation starter. Bonus: They make a fantastic gift for any cat lover. Highly recommend!" —Rene

Promising review: "This adds just the right amount of creepiness on my library wall. I love, love it!" —Auntie M

Get it from Amazon for $14.68+ (available in three styles).

It has over 35 pages filled with icky stuff like flesh-eating bacteria and parasitic worms.

Promising review: "This creepy book is not only fun to color, but it’s actually informative too. Each page has a picture of a disease and then information on the disease itself! I thought that was pretty cool. Color gross stuff and learn. It’s got a good amount of pages to color, and each one has a different picture." —Shelbe Clark

Promising review: "He’s just…perfect. Wildly realistic. My 4-year-old nephew asked why there was a frog on the table. A live one. 🤔 I told him to touch it. He lost it when he did. 😆😅 Then carried it around, showing everyone in the house." —Alicen H.

Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (also available as a panda or gecko).

Moontale Store is a small business owned by Wendy and is full of delightful squishy toys.

Promising review: "My daughter was BEYOND excited when she opened the cutest, ribbon-tied box I’ve ever seen! These squishies are absolutely AMAZING! Everything about my order was awesome and made my daughter’s day! Buy from this store because it’s everything it looks like in the pictures AND MORE!" —Stefanie Powell

Get it from Moontale Store on Etsy for $20.43+ (originally $25.28+; available in two colors or as a set of two).

Promising review: "We had no good place to put a toilet paper holder in our bathroom layout, so this was a cute and perfect solution! We get so many compliments on it from guests. Plus, they never have to go searching if a roll runs out. Great quality and color looks exactly as shown; can hold up to four rolls of toilet paper." —Kelli

Get it from Amazon for $30.95 (also available in eight other animal designs).

Promising review: "I gifted this little wide-eyed weirdo to my daughter for her Fuggler collection, and she loves it! This little Baddie is so cute. She’s super soft and cuddly, and her little eyelashes and tooth gems are so goofy! So glad to add this baddie to our collection!" —Laura

Get it from Amazon for $11.97+ (available in six styles).

The game requires at least two players, ages 6 and up.

Promising review: "It is the funniest thing ever for kids and adults. It surely brings out the best kid in you. It was worth the purchase." —Melisa

Promising review: "Great little piece for horror fans. It's pretty well made and packaged securely. A nice, unique addition to our horror collection."  —   angel15314

Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in two colors and another style).

Promising review: "I used these for a prank on my roommate and stuck eyes everywhere. They come in different sizes, some small and some big. They are pretty durable, as we keep finding them on different random objects. They were even stuck onto a door, and stayed the entire time we lived in that apartment. They are easy to use, as the back is sticky. They also put a lot in the single tin." —Flint_Ste.el

If sheep are not your thing, check out this alpaca version. 

Promising review: "I love him. He is so cute and so well-made. He is the perfect size and shape. I named him Banana Peel Son since his wool comes off like a banana peel. Adorable. Would recommend to everyone." —Lexie Collins

Promising reviews: "Sturdy, amazing quality! Had a girls' trip where we bought each other phone cases, and I found this gem to glue to my friend's/victim's case. He showed up in all her photos like he was taking a selfie. Best purchase ever, it’s so stupid hilarious. I’m gonna order one for myself. 😂" —C.C.

"Sent this to my daughter, unprovoked, for no other reason other than I thought it would be hilarious. She had no idea it was coming. She was both completely confused and laughing hysterically after she opened it. She then sent me a picture she had taken of her boyfriend a couple of weeks prior, of him at the store holding a stuffed version of this exact same thing. She's 23. I'm 43. We just get each other. ❤️" —Casey Madalena

Get it from Amazon for $15.95+ (also available in a plush version and a mini plush version). 

Promising review: "Was a Christmas gift for my brother and sister-in-law, who are both big classic horror fans, and they loved them! The magnetic lips are great for keeping them together!" —Tiffanie

Aromas include lemon, rose, jasmine, and more. 

Promising reviews: "My sister and I spent a solid 15 minutes giggling and decorating our toilet bowls… I have no idea how well these hold up, but the initial joy was worth it. They seem to be good consistency and stamped easily. The fragrances are pleasant and fresh." —Christin

"This toilet gel stamp kit is a convenient way to keep my bathroom smelling fresh between cleanings. The fragrance is strong enough to mask odors without being overpowering. For the price, you get great value with 60 applications. They stick well and last through multiple flushes. This is still an easy, affordable way to maintain a cleaner-smelling toilet. Would recommend for anyone wanting a low-maintenance freshness boost!" —Francia

Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in two sets).

Promising review: "I love it. Adjusting the fingers was a bit hard at first, because I was afraid I would break one, but they are actually VERY durable and more flexible than I thought. No reason to be scared, I twisted those suckers where I wanted them to be and BAM. It's beautiful. I love it. I can't stop looking at it. Best birthday present to myself ever." —Michan

Get it from Amazon for $45 (also available in black).

This toy is battery-free! It also comes with a little booklet. 

Promising review: "I think this little toy is adorable. I have it on my coffee table, and you just wind it and watch it go. I bought one for a friend, and she loved it. Cute gift for cat lovers." —T

Promising review: "OMG! I love this guy! These things, large and small, will ALWAYS make me laugh. My husband bought the desk version for me, and I can always count on it to make me laugh. My co-workers love it, too. People just stop by to turn him on for a quick pick-me-up. I would recommend getting the AC plug since batteries can run down fast. I think we should create a community of fellow air-dancer-havers and post clips of our little guys dancing to our favorite songs. Anyone in?" —Mark

Promising review: "I absolutely love this totally weird and cute strawberry felt baby. It looks just as pictured on the website and seems like it was made with a lot of care." —LLLLBEE 

Get it from Lone Frog Shop on Etsy for $34.99+ (available in three designs). 

Promising review: "I have actually bought a couple of packs of these. I think they’re so cute and fit so well in a little plant or around the house. Sometimes, I like to let my friends pick out some little guys as members of their families.  Plus, did I mention how cute they are? And they glow in the dark very well." —Jen

Get a set of 20 from Amazon for $9.98 (available in green or green and blue as well as a set of 10).

Get it from MiniStudio Artworks from Etsy for $40.30+ (available in two sizes).

Promising review: "An affable, squishy, bendy, happy little vase! The consensus on my social media page is that everyone should have one of these. I finally got a chance to try it out with some daffodils, and really, it's hard not to smile when you see them." —Susy Lundy 

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in three colors). 

Accoutrements is a small business that specializes in offbeat home and lifestyle products. 

Promising review: "This is both ridiculous and spectacular. It just might be my best Amazon impulse buy ever." —Meredith

You can make a simple ice pop with any fruit juice or yogurt with fresh fruit, so the possibilities are endless. One reviewer even said they just melt down boring, regular ice pops to use in the molds. 

Promising review: "These were better than I’d hoped for! All of them came out clean, and you can really see all the details. I was really nervous as I pulled the molds off and made sure to keep my thumb on the head as I pulled the mold so it didn’t pop off. We used yogurt and berries with a little sugar and milk. My kids loved them! So fun for Halloween!" —Rachel Pond

Get a set of four from Amazon for $15.99.

Promising review: "I purchased these after I saw them in a viral TikTok video, and they did not disappoint! Every single one of the candles works perfectly, and the flame flickers just like a real candle. They were really easy to put up in the ceiling because they were already strong with the fishing line. I just used clear thumbtacks and wrapped the line around them and hung it on the ceiling. The wand is so cool and works perfectly well for turning on and off the lights. I definitely would purchase more to add a little bit more magic throughout the house! Absolutely worth it!" —Korg

Get a set of 12 from Amazon for $15.99 (available in six varieties). 

Promising review: "I bought it for my friend's gift basket, and I honestly expected it to be smaller. It’s actually a perfect size and SUPER SUPER SOFT. I swear I'm not tryna be dramatic to try and sell you on this. It’s just that whoever thought of a banana duck as a concept needs to get a raise!" —Plush owner

Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in four sizes and five styles).

Promising review: "I bought this pickle wine stopper for my nephew and his partner. It keeps air out of the bottle with a snug fit, and it cleans up easily after use. The fact that they love 'pickle' anything is an added bonus!" —Cynthia

Promising review: "I work in an elementary school kitchen, and sometimes I need an emotional support something. I keep these on top of my printer, and at LEAST every other day, I have a few students who ask me to just look at them, hug one, and hand it back. Looking at them all day makes me smile, and the fact that they can be helpful to the students is a huge bonus as well." —Yourgirlelm

Lighters are not included! Reviewers debate whether Bic lighters fit; some say they work perfectly, while others say it's a tight fit. One reviewer states Bic didn't work for them, but the Clipper brand worked great. 

Promising review: "I can't even. This is literally the cutest thing I have ever impulse bought. It’s a hit at parties, and I giggle every time I remove the cute little hat to use the lighter." —Catt Pecknold 

Get a set of two from Amazon for $14.99 (available in five styles). 

Promising review: "This was a gag gift for my partner for Christmas, and it was hilarious. I have a size 12 finger, and these fit my fingers so that’s a win!" —Ace

Promising review: "I bought this last month, and I love it! I've never been a fan of the key hanger by the front door (it never felt safe to me), but I always end up turning my apartment upside down, looking for my keys. This is a cute and fun place to remember to grab my keys when I am heading out, and it's endearing to return them to the goose when I come home." —JAK
