Read More As a BuzzFeed Shopping editor, my goal is to find all the products actually worth buying. OMG, do you feel that chill in the air? Fall is coming, and it's time to celebrate. Let's admire some of these autumnal finds, like haunted doll stickers, maple butter cream, and a new Dove pumpkin pie body scrub. SpaLife is a small business that sells fun skincare products. Promising review: "These masks are actually really good. I got them for spooky goodie bags for my coworkers for Halloween. They all loved them, and I had a few extra to use for myself. I have sensitive skin, and they didn’t irritate my skin at all. They have a really good smell and left my skin feeling very soft and supple after using them." —Danni Get a pack of nine from Amazon for $19.99 (available in nine other styles). Promising review: "I absolutely adore this umbrella! The canopy is stylish, and I'm fond of the bat design inside. It's lightweight yet appears to be quite sturdy. It's compact, just the right size, and can comfortably accommodate two people. Definitely worth purchasing." —Mary Grace These toppers are ideal for 30- and 40-ounce Stanley cups, but they work for any straws that are 9 or 10 millimeters in diameter. Promising review: "I have had this straw topper for only two days and have already received so many compliments from friends and people at the gym. I find it great that you get four toppers for such a good price — just in case one breaks (these are such good quality that I don't imagine they will break easily). The ghost is the perfect size, doesn't look too big, and really grips onto the straw! I am someone who likes to celebrate spooky season year-round, so these are perfect!!" —Marina Get a pack of four from Amazon for $5.99. Get a book of 60+ stickers from Brass Monkey or Amazon for $9. Promising review: "Super fun for family game night!!" —Jennifer Promising review: "You know when you get new shoes, and you need to break them in? Not with these puppies. The first day I wore them, I was like, 'Wow, these are so comfortable.' I wore them the whole day and was even able to go to a party with them with no issue. I wear them to work (a job where I’m up all the time and even have to run sometimes), and I have never had any tears or breakage. It’s easy to get marks on them, but it’s also super easy to clean. Also, I’m already going to get another pair. I already have white, and next is black. So if you’re looking for a good shoe, this is it." —IT Get them from Amazon for $34.99 (available in sizes 6–11 and seven colors). Jim & Gloria is a small business that sells arts and crafts kits. Promising review: "These were so much fun! The colors are bright and the pens are easy to use. I highly recommend dyeing your animal; it's a lot of fun! And he looked super cute." —Jenny w. Get a pack of 12 from Amazon for $14.99. Promising review: "This is so good I'm gonna try to make my own. I've had apple butter before, but the addition of caramel to it is something truly dreamy. It's very sweet, as is regular apple butter because of the concentrated nature of the product. Definitely a 'use sparingly' type product. I'm using it in a cookie recipe so it'll be perfect. This is really, really good. Yum." —AmazonShopper Get it from Amazon for $8.95 (also available in three other flavors, including maple pumpkin butter). Promising review: "It smells amazing, and tastes like a sweet pumpkin pie. Heavenly and intoxicating. Definitely a keeper for me." —Ani Get a set of three from Amazon for $3.97. Promising review: "I have a lot of sensitivities and reactions to various lip products. It's gotten so that there are very few I can reliably use. These mini Vaseline tubs have become my go-to lip balm. They're really cute, they smell great, and I end up keeping them everywhere so I can use them throughout the day. It keeps my lips soft and locks in moisture. Especially helpful during winter. I highly recommend." —Lauren W. Promising review: "I broke up the three-pack and gave one pen as a gift for a class gift exchange and put the other two in a stocking for Christmas. Good quality and approved by both the 8-year-old and 49-year-old husband, who is a kid at heart! Definitely recommend." —Kindle Customer Get a set of three from Amazon for $16.99. Promising review: "The sign fits perfectly along the back wall of my office. The package came with two long black ribbons to hang the lettering and a red needle to easily thread the ribbon through the holes. I had no glitter fallout from putting the letters on the string, and I don't think there will be. Overall, this is a fun item to acquire either for Halloween or for year-round delight." —Marina Promising review: "Absolutely the best gummies ever. Fall apple includes Granny Smith, Red Delicious, and McIntosh!!!!" —Tabitha V. Promising review (for Halloween shape): "My kids love the Halloween-shaped pasta. It was easy to make and delicious. The package even came with some recipes to try." —Amazon Customer Get the Halloween, fall harvest, and ABC shapes from Amazon for $14.99 and check out all the seasonal options here. Promising review: "This gloss is high shine and definitely plumps; it's very obviously a plumping gloss. The colour is subtle and I love it so much. I have already bought two, and I will probably buy the rest of the colors. I'm obsessed." —Anna The stamp should ship in 2–4 days, but some reviewers warn it might take longer. Promising review: "This works really well for items and clothes. The instructions are easy to read and understand. It's super cute and fun." —Lynn Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (available in 19 shapes). Promising review: "Absolutely, hands down, my favorite. They are softer than peanuts, and the shell is like an apple cider-flavored candy crumble. The coating that I'm talking about is crispy. My whole family loves them, and every friend I've let try them want the whole container. It's an anytime winner at any get-together. You could burn the steak, dehydrate the mashed potatoes, and mess up everything about a meal, but if you have these on hand... It's all they will talk about. Best product value I have found in a very long time." —Rachel Promising review: "This item definitely exceeded the definition of cuteness. I bought this for my bookshelf, and now my nieces are asking for one for their room. 🎃 Love how it has a timer for 30 minutes. It works great." —Book_Hollows Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in two styles). The kit comes with everything needed for 15 experiments and instructions to conduct 30 more with household items. Promising review: "The perfect gift for a budding scientist and gross enthusiasts. This kit would also be really fun for Halloween pranks!!" —Amazon Customer Big fan of these! May have left a few piles of green crumbs around my home while eating them. The nougat is a light green (not super neon or anything), which makes it fun and seasonal. The dye doesn't change the flavor — it just makes it feel like you're having a witchy lil' candy.

Warming fragrance lingers even as it dissolves well in the bathtub. When I looked at the fragrance components, I was doubtful I would like it, but the combination does impart a warm vanilla scent." —Erma Warming a candle instead of lighting lets you enjoy the fragrance without dealing with an open flame. It also extends the life of the candle, so this thing kind of pays for itself. The feet are meant to be used as a phone holder, but personally, I would not put my phone on a hot object. Promising reviews: "I thought I’d try putting my wax melt in there and see how long it would take to melt. It took less than five minutes to melt it!! Also, it feels kinda heavy and dense, like it was made out of good material. I love it. 😭 It's gonna be good for my tea time AND make my office smell good." —Allisen "I'm a teacher, so I NEVER get to finish my coffee in one sitting. This thing has made my day so much better. No matter how long ago I made my coffee, each and every sip tastes like it was just brewed. Very happy!" —Amanda Fausto Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in nine styles and one option with an included mug). Promising review: "I’ve used this cooking chicken, butternut squash, and carrots. It’s delicious!" —Barry Promising review: "Oh my goodness, not only does this product work well on cooked-on crud on your pans or plates found in the kids' rooms, but it smells fantastic! The Apple scent is like a fresh Granny Smith apple — a true apple scent. I just love this scent and have made it a Subscribe & Save regular, as I can't find it in my local store. Wonderful scent in a wonderful product!" —Tiffany A. The Plotted Plant is a small business based in California that sells silly stickers. Promising review: "These stickers are well-made and very high quality! They also make amusing additions to gifts." —Heather Get it from the Plotted Plant on Etsy for $4+ (available in two sizes). Promising review: "This Mrs. Meyer's Fall Leaves hand soap instantly transports me to a crisp autumn day — leaves crunching underfoot, a warm breeze through the trees, and the comforting scent of home. The fragrance is earthy yet inviting, like wrapping your hands in a cozy flannel blanket after raking leaves with the kids. It doesn’t just smell good — it feels good. The soap lathers beautifully, rinses clean, and leaves my hands soft without that dry, tight feeling. It’s not just soap — it’s a seasonal ritual. I’ll be buying this every autumn." —Duke of Westfall St. Get it from Amazon for $4.88. (Available in two other scents and different sizes, including the iconic Acorn Spice scent, which comes in a three-pack!) Promising review: "These are amazing. I have always wanted to have them for Halloween, and this year we bought them. They are thicker than a regular trash bag but not as thick as a contractor bag; not super see-through. They held up to us squishing the leaves down in them." —Sarah Get a pack of six from Amazon for $11.99. Promising review: "This oil smells AMAZING. I got one as a gift, and once I smelled it, I bought three more myself. It lasts throughout the whole day, and I get lots of compliments on it. I love how compact it is, you can put it in your purse or luggage very easily. It is warm and very vanilla-y. This is definitely a 10/10." —Ari R. Since this is a one-ingredient product, you'll need to keep it in the fridge after opening. Just give it a good mix if it separates. Promising reviews: "This maple butter has one ingredient, and boy is it delicious!!! Sooo happy I ordered." —Aunt Tilitha "I can't get enough of this maple cream! I've been using it in my espresso, and it adds the most incredible flavor. The richness of the maple comes through so beautifully, giving my coffee a warm, comforting sweetness. It's the perfect touch without being overpowering." —Morgan Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in two sizes). Promising review: "I had no idea there was such a thing as a wooden pencil highlighter. These exceeded my expectations. The pencil is wood, so one less bit of plastic to end up in a landfill. The 'lead' part of the pencil appears to be a kind of waxy crayon-like material. It goes on like a dream. Just as useful as a traditional liquid felt-tip marker for highlighting. Because I had it handy, I used one today at work to mark a peg location to install a shelf. This bright highlighter pencil left a nice mark for me to locate the correct peg hole for the shelf, which wiped off easily from the metal once it was installed. 100% recommend! Definitely will buy again." —M. C. Get a pack of four from Amazon for $9.80. Promising review: "I'm obsessed with this! We originally tried this during the fall, when we found that going out for coffee each day was too expensive! This Torani pumpkin pie sauce is delicious, and honestly it tastes even better than Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks, plus you can enjoy the flavor year-round. It has a similar rich consistency as caramel, but definitely has that additional distinct spiced flavor. I like to add cinnamon powder to really amp up the spices. So tasty!" —David M Taylor Just don't use these packets if you're planning on roasting food. Promising review: Mystical Fire Colorant is amazing. For a really fun experience, get some of these for your next camping trip. As if a campfire needs improvement... but this stuff is really neat. I'd say the adults love it even more than the kids. We only used one packet, and the colors were so good — it seems like they lasted at least 20 minutes. There was even color left in the ashes the next day. We will never go camping again without several packs of Mystical Fire on hand." —Tara Get a pack of six from Amazon for $7.20. BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord says: "OK, I'm gonna get real here: I typically don't love pumpkin scents or anything that runs on the "sweeter" side. But this Pumpkin Chai body lotion is the holy grail of pumpkin scents. It is somehow rich, warm, and light at the same time, and so perfectly balanced that the sweetness feels more like a top note than an overwhelming one. It smells strangely nostalgic?? Like, it smells like autumn personified, if all the best, most delicious, most cozy parts of it got combined. I am so picky that I was expecting to tolerate this at best, but I am going to mourn it deeply when pumpkin season is over!! And as always, this stuff packs a hydrating punch. My knees were super raw and dry for reasons unknown, but after putting this on twice a day for three days, they're good as new, and I'm not randomly itching them anymore." Promising review: "These little hedgehogs are mushroom figurines are perfect for building my terrarium. Very colorful and detailed." —Luis Get a pack of six from Amazon for $8.49. Promising review: "I picked this for the light smell and was surprised with how dark my bath water turned. If you want a spooky bath bomb without the incense notes, I highly recommend this one!" —Ana Promising review: "This dust is the best seasoning in the world. I use it on everything. I actually use this to season pork — don’t knock it ’til you try it. It’s really good to put on ribs. You can put it on waffles. You can put it on cereal, you can put it on oatmeal, you name it." —Sarah N Get it from Amazon for $3.49+ (available in two sizes). Squeeze & Thank You is a small business that sells magnets, felt gifts, and other cute decor. Promising review: "Adorable, well-made, and sturdy pie garland for my pie party! Looks so well done that it may last for years, which is good because we love pie. Thank you! A+ item." —Jennifer Get it from Squeeze & Thank You on Etsy for $32. Promising review: "I absolutely fell in love with this body scrub. The scent immediately reminds me of fall — it smells so good without making the experience feel overwhelming. The exfoliating particles are small and feel gentle on my skin. It doesn’t feel harsh or painful when I use it, which I really appreciate. My favorite part is how my skin feels afterward: clean, noticeably soft, smooth, and with that cozy fall scent left behind. I use it about two or three times a week, and I especially love pairing it with the Dove Cinnamon Pumpkin Pie body wash. I would definitely get this scrub again." —Dania Just make sure any light that goes in is LED so it doesn't get hot! Promising review: "Super cute Halloween lanterns! Perfect for what I needed! The quality is pretty good. Would recommend!" —Jade Get a pack of 10 from Amazon for $14.99. It comes with stakes and is easy to pack down for storage during the off season. Promising review: "Great looking inflatable! Everyone stops to snap a picture of the sandworm!" —Michelle Get it from Wayfair for $190.33 or a 6-foot version from Amazon for $82.99.
