Hey Siri, play “1979” by The Smashing Pumpkins. 🍂

I’m a resident writer on the BuzzFeed Shopping team covering a variety of topics in a fun and mindful way, including travel, home, beauty, gift guides, and anything that’ll add just a bit of whimsy into people’s lives.

Promising review: "I’ve used this for two nights and I’m seeing immediate results! My lips were peeling, dry, and sore for weeks. After only two nights, the peeling has stopped almost completely and my lips already feel plumper and more moisturized. The formula feels great on and looks great, too. Highly recommend!" —Sylvie M

Get it from Amazon for $15 (also available in a marshmallow style and as a pumpkin face mask). 

Just a heads up, you'll want to hand-wash this piece. 

Promising review: "Pretty and a bit vintage-y with the dimensional pattern in black. I saw this skirt a while back and love the look. Perfect in the fall through holiday time with a nice shiny black boot! Also, a fitted, black, long sleeve, basic sweater, and some shiny gold drop earrings, and a gold chain with a coin medallion. It's a vision!" —Frosty

Get it from Amazon for $29.90 (available in women's sizes XS–3XL and seven styles). 

Promising review: "SUCH a great introduction to color by numbers! Lots of cozy, peaceful scenes to pick from, and the book size is great for carrying around with you. All you need is a small packet of Artistro black acrylic markers, and you're set! They don't bleed through either, thanks to the thick, one-sided paper. It's also super fun to slowly reveal the whole picture by coloring in only the areas with the 'O.' I can't wait to work through this one and invest in more of these books! Well worth the money if you want a relaxing new hobby!" —Sabrina

They can also be trimmed, filed, or polished for your perfect fit, and remove easily with their TikTok-famous serum. And btw, they have NFL-themed nails too! 

The kit comes with everything you need to apply these, including nail glue, a nail file, a cuticle stick, and an alcohol pad. Buff your natural nails to remove the shine, then apply glue to your natural nail and the artificial nail for the best grip.

Promising review: "Absolutely love these. I work with boilers, so I am rough with my hands and these last. Also, if I happen to pop one off, I can pop another back on in seconds. The glue is very strong, and they come off so easily with the same brand removal oil. They are so quick to put on, I get a beautiful set of nails in under 15 minutes. Great value for the money. I like the thickness as they are not bulky, but definitely not thin. The color is stunning! I have purchased about seven different sets, as well as the toenails. Highly recommend." —Lynn

Get a 30-piece set from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in dozens of fall-inspired styles). 

Promising review: "I've spent hundreds of dollars only for my flowers to die. It's very hot where we live and nothing has lived in a pot, or in the ground. I'm so in love with these fake flowers. No watering, no planting, no wondering if they are going to make it, cuz they're beautiful. The best thing: They're cheaper too!!!!!!!!" —gltrgami

Get 12 small bundles from Amazon for $22.38 (also available in other colors).

Promising review: "This is brilliant. For someone who thinks lots of bath bombs aren't as potent as they used to be — this is! Color, citrus fragrance, popping candy, loved it!" —Rachey G

Get it from Lush for $9 — and see the entire Día de Muertos collection here. 

Psst — reviewers mention stocking up on these because they're SUPER cheap on Amazon, and hard to find in stores! 

Promising review: "Love the taste. I put it on everything. Ribs, pork chops, chicken, even burgers. They all tasted great." —Judy

Get it from Amazon for $2.08 (also available as a two-pack). 

Promising review: "I recently got this and it's become a new favorite in my wardrobe. The color is rich and versatile, while still being neutral. It is perfect for pairing with jeans or layering under a jacket. The waffle texture adds a cozy feel without being too heavy, making it ideal for cooler days. The quality is very nice, it feels expensive and is on the 'heavier' side. It's also super comfortable and fits just right—definitely a go-to piece for casual outings or lounging around." —The Duchess Corgi

Get it from Amazon for $31.99 (available in women's sizes XS–XL and six colors). 

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 $4.89 (available in two other scents and as a three-pack). 

Promising review: "This is such a comfortable chair or bed! I was very happy with my purchase. You won’t go wrong if you are looking for comfort or if you need to save space. I highly recommend this." —danny 

Get it from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in two sizes and nine colors).

Promising review: "The plush corduroy is much softer than I expected. It has a high-end, 'cloud-like' feel that is very comforting. Unlike cheap bean bags that just collapse, this has enough structure to actually hold its shape, making it comfortable for long gaming sessions or reading. The color looks fantastic in natural light and fits perfectly with modern room vibes." —Amy G

Get it from Amazon for $132.99+ (available in two sizes and five colors). 

Pins with Personality is a small business based in Rhode Island. 

Promising review: "Super cute, and the clip is sturdy and good quality. Although it does struggle to hold my hair (finer wavy hair), so if you have thick or curly hair, I would plan to have a backup way to secure it in case the clip can't hold your hair. Overall, super adorable design, fast shipping, good communication from the seller, and reasonable price for the quality of the item." —Pudge

Get it from Pins with Personality on Etsy for $20 (available in three colors).

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord uses this: "I bought this because I crave that Black Honey and will buy it until the day I die, but I am always paranoid of losing it, so I almost never let it leave my bag. I have tried probably five or six "almost" versions of Black Honey that came close, but this one genuinely spooked me. It has the same easy glide, same buildability, and the same refreshingly hydrating effect. It was a two-pack so I gave one to my BFF, another Black Honey fan, who also could not detect the difference!" 

Promising review: "Better than Clinique! I bought this one on a whim but never liked the real Black Honey Almost Lipstick by Clinique, since it tends to run red on me. This shade, in my opinion, is exactly what Black Honey SHOULD be, as it looks more like Black Honey in pictures. For the price, it can’t be beat, so I’m buying more." —HAC 

Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (also available in the pink honey and nude honey styles, and variety two- or three-packs). 

Promising review: "Straight up delicious. Ten years from now, someone is going to ask you what's a discontinued food that you miss, and you're going to think of these, and the rest of your day is going to be ruined." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $4.88 (also available in a two-pack and a Halloween theme orange flavor). 

Bonus: these also work as a bird deterrent to help keep feathery friends from crashing. 

Promising review: "This brings so much cheer to my home. It’s so pretty, tasteful, and well-made. The quality is great, and it’s so easy to use or reuse time and time again." —Michelle Daschner 

Get an 18-piece set from Amazon for $13.90. 

Promising review: "This gel is a lifesaver for me. It's a lightweight, cool, soothing gel that moistens my nasal passages at night allowing me to get restful sleep. It was recommended to me by my allergy doctor. I use it every night without fail. Try it and see!" —Jeanie 

Get it from Amazon for $3.62 (also available as a two-pack). 

Promising review: "Had these for quite some time before tearing off the tags to wear them, and had so many compliments on them! I love them! Super comfy and fun." —Shannon Taylor

Get it from Amazon for $35.99 (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and 15 styles). 

Promising reviews: "Great smelling Native conditioner, this brand never disappoints! Great price for a high-quality conditioner with a fun collaboration with the Peanuts gang :)." —britty

"Very fresh apple scent. I mixed this with the Native Warm Cinnamon and Cider and it smells amazing! Perfect for fall." —love this lamp

It has a built-in bleacher hook on the bottom of the seat that keeps it securely in place so you're not sliding around.

Promising reviews: "These seats are so comfortable. ... They were a back-saver during all the basketball games this past fall. Will buy again." —Susie Q.

"We've started going to this season's grandkids' football games, and I finally got tired of sitting on cold aluminum, so I purchased two of these Cascade Mountain Tech stadium seats — one wide and one regular. These seats are very well-built and somewhat heavy, but most of all, they're very comfortable when sitting for several hours on cold bleacher seats. For those who say they 'sink' into them, you can adjust the lacing on the bottom to tighten the seat so that you don't sink. These have been great and I'd definitely repurchase, if these were ever lost or stolen. Highly recommended." —A. Mullen

Get it from Amazon for $55.99 (available in six colors).

Reviewers mention it runs slightly large, especially the sleeves! 

Promising review: "I'm always skeptical when something says it's oversize, but this is it! It's soft, it's warm, it's exactly that big, fall cozy sweater you're looking for. I bought my normal size, and it's at least a size up. I will be buying more!" —Melanie O'Donnell

Get it from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–XL and 33 styles). 

Check out a TikTok of the microwave bowl holders in action. 

Promising review: "Buy these for yourself and everyone you know. They are soft and fit a variety of sizes of bowls to put under them in the microwave and eat from. My kids love them. We bought some to gift to other people too, and I will get some for my son to use at college. Made of a heavy terry cloth that can be thrown right in the washer when needed. We used towels before under our bowls, but these cradle the bowls, so they are easier to hold. We bought some bigger plate sizes too." —Heidi J. 

Get a set of four from Amazon for $17.99 (available in 10 color combos). 

Promising review: "Honestly I purchase so much skincare and wellness products, these are the best under eye patches I have ever used! Highly recommend, they feel super luxurious under your eyes. It’s worth every penny! I have dark circles and they do help brighten up my under eyes when I use this product consistently. Also, they actually stick to your under eye, and they don’t fall off when using them huge plus!" —Mrs. Hira

Get it from Amazon for $16.80 (also available in a collagen formula). 

Promising review: "What a find! Soo incredibly soft. Super cozy and warm. Love the fox color, so rich. A lovely eye-catching texture for fall and winter." —C. Cole

Get it from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in three sizes and 13 colors). 

Plus, reviewers say a little goes a long way, so it'll last you all season long! (Maybe 😉). 

Promising reviews: "Better than Starbucks! I love this! Don’t like pumpkin spice flavor but enjoy pumpkin pie! This was much more like pumpkin pie. :) Helps me make good coffee for much cheaper at home!!" —Joshua J. Ofstie

"O.M.G.!!! Don't hesitate to get this sauce. Not the syrup, the sauce. It tastes like a homemade pumpkin pie made by someone who knows how to cook. No bitterness at all, and the flavors shine through. Not sickening like some pumpkiny seasonal fad foods. I just got it today, and I had to hide the bottle already. This would be good on ice cream, on a pie, in a coffee, or just a little 'taste' now and then. It wasn't super cheap, but the fact that you don't have to pour it on like pancake syrup to get any flavor is great. You don't need a lot. Trust me. THIS IS A KEEPER. PUMPKIN SAUCE RULES!" —Layne McD

Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (also available in a pack of four). 

Promising reviews: "Fit great, looks cute. Even wore them on a few-mile walk and didn’t get blisters!" —Laurence Grante III

"These boots fit perfectly. The quality is great so far and they are super comfy. GET these for fall!!" —BH

Get them from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in women's sizes 6–11 and in 14 colors).

Bonus: It comes with anchor elastic straps to keep it secure on the bed, and a quilted dot design to keep the shredding evenly distributed. 

Promising review: "Very soft and kinda lumpy, which works great for my back issues. I'm waking up in the morning with less stiffness. I highly recommend for anyone, as my very firm mattress was not good for my back." —Sheila Goodwin

Get the queen size from Amazon for $54.97 (available in sizes twin–king).

Promising review: "Perfect home decor for quick decorating for autumn. The leaves are brightly colored and accent my fall figurines. A light touch makes a big difference in perking up cloudy gray days." —Bleau

Get a pack of two from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in 15 styles). 

If you somehow breeze your way through the first edition, there are two more you can check out!

Promising review: "Great quality book. Thick pages with beautiful color. Engaging problems to solve (and so many of them!!!). I am almost halfway through the puzzle book within my first week of having it, and I came back to Amazon to see if there were other volumes available for purchase. I will be buying all future volumes. Great fun!" —Daniel

Promising review: "I was so nervous to try this stuff on my Birkin, but over the summer, my bag's leather has suffered a bit from all the heat, so I decided to give it a shot! So so happy with the results. My bag went from stiff and dry feeling to soft and supple again! The little buttery leather slouch is back, and I am so beyond impressed with this product! Buy it!" —Meäghan Sanders

Promising review: "The toys are big enough for cats to rabbit kick, and they don't smell like catnip. My cat who doesn't typically play with toys really liked them, and looks like a little killer throwing knives around while she plays with them. I got them as a Christmas gift and they haven't destroyed them yet, and my cats are pretty hard on toys. The cats love them, and the material is soft enough to chew on. They're happy, I'm happy. My little murderers look the part." —Katwrin

Get a pack of four from Amazon for $9.98. 

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. 

It's also designed to fit in most cup holders! 

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes says: "I have a Simple Modern tumbler I've used for yeeears now and love it! It's so easy to clean, and it keeps my water cold for a long time. As a clumsy person, I've also knocked it over a million times and water never leaks." 

Promising review: "I left this mug in my car for over an hour on a day the temperature was 106 degrees. I came back to my car and the the water was still cold AND THERE WAS STILL ICE IN THE MUG. How? I don’t know. But do I need to say more? Buy this mug!" —Diana Kramer

Get it from Amazon for $27.99 (also available in 41 other styles).

Promising review: "I have used this pan for loaf cakes and quick breads, and it is simply the best. Due to the embossed design, even a simple recipe turns out looking extra special. The pan is a moderately heavy weight, not flimsy aluminum. The cake releases easily from the pan when turned onto a plate, and the pan is a dream to clean. I suggest you lower your oven temperature by about 25 degrees due to the dark color of this pan. I didn’t do that the first time, and my cake turned out darker than normal. Adjusting the oven temperature solved the problem for future baking. This pan would also make a nice gift." —Wren Cottage 

Get it from Amazon for $29.95 (also available in a three-pack).

Promising review: "La Jolie Muse candles are elegant, beautifully packaged, and, more importantly, smell spectacular! I cannot get enough of this fragrance. It is warm and cozy without being overpowering. The candle itself burns evenly, and you just can't beat their quality. Yes, you will pay a little bit more for their products, but I find a treat like this to be worth it. This is my third Sahara Amber candle from La Jolie Muse, and I couldn't be happier!" —Lila 

Get it from Amazon for $29 (available in ten other scents and as a two-pack). 

A few of the lamps available are height adjustable so you can fit those large Yankee candles! 

Promising review: "Not sure why I didn't buy this in the first place!! With this lamp, the smell of the candle is stronger and lingers longer! At the moment, it's on my kitchen counter, and I can smell the candle all the way up in my bedroom!" —stephanie

Get it from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in nine styles and as a two-pack). 

Promising review: "I love these pillows. I first came across pillows similar to these on the website for an upscale home decor chain. I wanted them, but they were out of my price range, even on sale. So I checked Amazon and was happy to see something very similar and much more affordable. What a find! They are so cute and great decor for both Halloween and Thanksgiving. Note that they come in vacuum-sealed bags that make them look flat. When you take them out, you need to fluff them. It's like popcorn... they get so much bigger!" —Jaye

Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in two sizes and seven colors). 

Promising review: "My best friend loved this for her birthday. She loves Halloween and tea, and this was such a cute and perfect gift." —Harley Nixon
