Why buy a boring plain bath mat when you can buy one that looks like a spring garden?

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: "I have never seen a more beautiful blanket in my life. The images of the red roses crochet blanket looked exactly like an actual blanket — it was warm, high quality, and cost way less than others of the same size. Not to mention, a majority of the other crochet roses I looked at looked like rolled-up socks to me, while the roses on this blanket were detailed with little crochet leaves. Even the packaging it came in was elegant. Recently bought a second one for my mother." —Jones

Promising review: "I have to wear my hair up for work. These are great to dress up a simple pony! The colors are exactly as shown and go with a variety of outfits. The quality is top-notch." —SunnyStyle

Promising review: "I have extremely thick hair, and finding clips that actually hold it in place without slipping or breaking is a constant struggle. These bow hair clips totally exceeded my expectations! They come in a set of four beautiful colors, which gives me great options to match different outfits. The material feels sturdy, and the clips have a strong grip that actually keeps my hair up all day without adjusting. Plus, they’re super cute and add a nice touch of style without being over-the-top. Love the great price point and size of them as well. Highly recommend if you’ve got thick hair and want something both functional and pretty!" —	Elasah Adler

Buzzfeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says: "I am not responsible enough to own an expensive scarf but I LOVE love love colorful things, so I had to own this. It is delightfully soft on the skin and just as vibrant in person as it is online! I've really enjoyed wearing it on blustery days when I want to be bundled up, but don't want to be in my usual boring black-on-black New York winter gear."

Okay, 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: "I originally bought these as bud vases for my daughter’s garden tea grad party, and they were so precious! I loved them so much, I decided to use them to dress up the window in my home office. They add a perfect little pop of color! They arrived packaged well, in mint condition, and on time. They are very thin and lightweight, so they should be handled and stored carefully." —Just Jess!

Get a pack of six from Amazon for $29.99.

Promising review: "This is the cutest planter. I have a pothos that just is thriving, so I got these to repot some of it. The picture was when I first set it up and now they're roots have completely taken over the little bottles. That window gets sun all day and they cast light all through the room through the bottles." —Dee Danford

These are safe for the oven, microwave, and dishwasher! 

Promising review: "I love this pretty pot. I use it for dipping sauce and a melting pot, and keep it on the stove for decor. I love showing it off when people ask me where I get it from." —sandra l. 

Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in four colors). 

Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says: "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, the 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 [because] I 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 version, and in a two-pack that mixes both!). 

Aromas include lemon, rose, jasmine, and more. 

Promising reviews: "My sister and I spent a solid 15 minutes girl 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!" —SimpleStyleMe

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

Promising review: "I'm obsessed!!! I keep this in my teacher desk so that I can easily use it whenever I stop for coffee in the morning on my way to school. It's a super cute pattern for an English teacher. I can hold my iced coffee without making my hands cold. The best part is that I don't have a puddle of condensation on my desk as the coffee melts." —Former Lifeguard, sunglasses expert

Promising review: "I actually did not know anything like this existed. I was watching TikTok and saw someone use it to allow the light to shine in without people being able to stare into their home. So I decided to give it a try, and am so glad I did. It is beautiful. I currently have it on a small window, and the difference it makes as opposed to aluminum foil is amazing. Plus, if you like a little light but not an over-abundant amount, this is the stuff to use. Very easy to put up, very happy with my purchase." —Eva Thomas

It's designed to fit laptops up to 15.6 inches.

Check out a TikTok of the disco ball in action, make sure to grab some essential oils for the full experience! Read more about aromatherapy and stress and tension at Johns Hopkins.

Also, according to Johns Hopkins, you may want to avoid diffusing oils around larger groups and young children because of the side effects of different oils. You may also want to avoid using an oil diffuser around pets with breathing problems, according to the ASPCA.

Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE my disco ball diffuser! It brings me joy. The diffuser works great and has timed options. You can use the disco ball without diffusing too. Lots of pretty color-changing options or you can have it cycle through all of the colors which is what I choose to do. There are two spinning modes too…slow and fast or you can set it to not spin at all. Get one. You WON’T be disappointed!! 🪩🫶🏼😍" —Heather

Get it from Amazon for $39.97+ (available in two sizes). 

Promising reviews: "Scuffed up my Coach purse and needed something cute to cover it. The color was so pretty, it was a beautiful beige that goes so pretty with my red bag. You could use it many ways, head or purse and it was silky soft. So cute, I have been wanting other colors." —Shiloh

"These scarves are so pretty and elevate any outfit instantly. The material feels soft and silky, and I love that it can be styled in different ways — on a handbag, around the neck, in your hair, or even as a chic vacation accessory. Great quality for the price, and looks much more expensive than expected." —NL

Glam Globes is a UK-based Etsy shop that specializes in disco-ball themed homewares. 

Here's what BuzzFeeder Maitland Quitmeyer has to say about it: "This is the best product I bought this year, actually! It's from a small biz based in the UK and while it did take a while to arrive (as I expected), it was *well* worth the wait. The light bouncing off the mirror fragments and onto my walls is just dang beautiful. Between the bottom tray and the space inside the globe (yes, the globe OPENS UP!), there's a nice amount of storage for bottles and glassware. And unlike regular bar carts, the things you keep inside the globe will actually stay dust free. I bought the 'champagne' color (which is a nice neutral cream-beige) but it comes in tons of colors that'll go perfectly with your home decor."

Get it from Glam Globes on Etsy for $352.12 (available in seven colors).

Get it from Amazon for $7.49+ (available in 10 sizes and 18 patterns). 

Promising review: "I am OBSESSED with this cutting board. It is made so well and looks so expensive. Every time I have guests, I will use it as serving tray or display for charcuterie and I always get compliments on it." —Lorrin Farrell

Promising review: "I love these pill organizers! Makes morning medication taking so much easier. Seven slots for the week, with a push button in the middle to rotate to the slot! Very compact. Not a lot of space for a bunch of pulls. Perfect for those who only take two or three medications at a time. Love this for my child who has a medication routine. Allows him to access and do it on his own with the easy-to-use design!" —Mallory

Promising review: "I absolutely love these sunglasses! They suit my face beautifully and elevate any look with their stylish design. The gold details on the sides are such a stunning touch — reminiscent of high-end Miu Miu sunglasses but at a fraction of the cost. They’re lightweight, comfortable, and feel durable. I’ve received so many compliments already. Highly recommend these for anyone looking to add a chic accessory to their collection!" —Arsalan sheikh

Get it from Amazon for $14.98 (available in five styles and two packs). 

Promising review: "I’ve been using this for over a year now, and it’s been great! It’s super cute and does the job perfectly for espresso shots and milk frothing. It does feel a bit fragile, so I always hand-wash it instead of using the dishwasher — especially to protect the wooden handle from any wear. Still in great shape after regular use. Definitely a nice little accessory for any espresso setup!" —KP
