Just ever-so-gently pushing you and this itty bitty pancake maker and ridiculously delicious pistachio butter together, out of love.

Promising review: "An awesome invention. I take salads daily to work, and it’s so convenient. Also the dressing at the top makes mixing salad so easy." —Adrienne Williams 

I personally will live, breathe, and die by the magic of "universal" Black Honey version — it lasts FOREVER and also functions as the perfect blush — but it sells out so often that I am also deeply relieved to know it has a cheap alternative in case of lip emergency! 

Promising review: "I absolutely love this product. The dark color is perfectly sheer. It also adds the most beautiful color to your lips. I am a Clinique Black Honey lip fan, and this gives me the same look for a fraction of the cost. I love it and have several that I keep in various spots. Not sticky either, which is my biggest gripe about lip glosses. My hair doesn’t get stuck in this like some glosses, but I get the shine." —Hamps5

"I searched high and low for this color after I saw it on, guess what ... TikTok! And the creator was right, it’s great for everyone. It’s not too dark or too light. Keeps my lips hydrated with a bit of color and shine. Love it." —Erin C. 

Get it from Amazon for $8 (also available in four other shades). 

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. 

Promising review: "This smells heavenly!! I wore it today with the Cheirosa 62, and it smells delicious! I already purchased a second bottle for me and one for my daughter because I know it's going viral, and I don't want to run out! It's already hard to find where I am. To me, this is even better than the Vanilla Cashmere, and that's been my absolute favorite so far." —Heather Mg

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: "Tired of traditional 'cool' pillows that feel like a brick? Tired of soft pillows that wake you up in sweat? Look no more! I am a very hot-natured, hot-sleeping person. I can not sleep without a fan on high blowing on me. This pillow is legitimately cool and comfortable. Somehow soft but still supportive. Very, very happy with my purchase and the price!" —Robert

Promising review: "So moisturizing! My new favorite body wash, it smells AMAZING!" —Krys 

Get it from Amazon for $11 (also available in five other scents). 

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

Promising review: "Welp, this stuff is amazing. I tend to avoid anything trendy or anything that 'goes viral' due to my stubborn nature, but when searching Amazon for a red reducing toner, this one just kept showing up, so I swallowed my pride. Social media did not betray us on this one, friends. I saw immediate results. My skin looked much calmer right after the first use, and it feels so smooth. The price is amazing, the bottle is fun, it has no scent (not necessarily a positive for me, but I know it's important to others), it feels good to put on, and looks good on the skin. I have a feeling that I will be repurchasing this toner, highly recommend." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "They were easy to assemble, come with lots of extra stem pieces so you can make the stem longer or shorter, they look great and last forever!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I bought this after seeing an ad on TikTok. I'm skeptical, but I’m a sucker for this kinda stuff, but it is genuinely amazing. I tested it on all the different areas of my body. It didn’t do a thing to my well-exfoliated palm, but my face, legs, LIPS… baby soft with big balls of dead skin coming off. Like one of those Korean exfoliating gloves, but you don’t have to scrub like you do with those. You just gently rub it in, and your dead skin peels away. I even had a weird callus on my arm that kept regrowing, [and] it smoothed it down so cleanly. This stuff is truly magic. Just WOW." —Nellie

I am OBSESSED with Maldon Sea Salt flakes — I love to put them in olive oil for dipping bread, on top of any chocolate dessert, on any kind of potato or cheese dish. Every time I think to put it on something new, my brain does a little high-five with my mouth. 

Promising review: "This is elite salt. Fancy without being pretentious. The flakes are perfect for finishing, adding that satisfying little crunch and flavor pop to everything from steaks to chocolate chip cookies and buttered sourdough toast. Yes, toast. Trust me. The tub is massive and resealable, which keeps it fresh and easy to use. If you’re into flavor, this is the salt upgrade your pantry didn’t know it needed." —Alyn Reads

Promising review: "The serum is lightweight, absorbs fast, and has no strong scent. After about three weeks, those stubborn dark spots are visibly lighter, and my overall skin tone is brighter and more even. My texture feels smoother, and my skin is happily hydrated. The 5% tranexamic acid really seems to make a difference for fading spots, and it's been gentle on my sensitive skin. If you want a serum that brightens, evens tone, and tackles blemishes without feeling heavy, this is it. It's a new favorite!" —Amazon Customer

Check out a TikTok of the reading pillow in action. 

Promising review: "I’m loving my new pillow. It has been the best money I have spent on an item. I’m a reader and love that this pillow gives me good support. It stays firm. It’s a good-sized pillow. It gives good support for your shoulders and neck. It doesn’t weigh too much, and it is thick. It doesn’t make you hot at night when you’re asleep or when you’re just reading. I love that you can use it in so many different ways. I have even used it to hold my laptop when I’m working." —Malone

Sayso is a woman-owned small business that specializes in the first-ever cocktail teabag, perfect for cocktails *and* mocktails. 

Promising review: "I was a bit skeptical when I purchased, but these are actually fantastic. The taste is great, and the bags make it incredibly easy to mix up what would otherwise be complex cocktails quickly and easily. I've had the spicy marg, espresso martini, and old-fashioned versions, and while they aren't exactly the same as the original, they are wonderful for making yourself a cocktail at home. Highly recommend." —Meredith

Check out a TikTok of the Deathwish Instant Coffee in action. (Also I read at least one review of someone PUTTING THIS IN THEIR MORNING SMOOTHIE, some of you are WILD.) 

Note: According to the Mayo Clinic, up to 400 mg of caffeine is safe for most healthy adults. 

Death Wish Coffee is a small business that specializes in coffee pods, grounds, whole beans, and more. 

Promising review: "So let me start by saying that this coffee is delicious and works if you’re someone like me who wants to stay awake. I work night shifts at a hospital, and in the mornings, when I get home, I’m quite tired and sleepy. I made myself a cup of coffee and waited for it to work. Now let me tell y’all!!! This coffee kept me awake for hours!! BOY, WAS I WOWED INDEED … best believe I went ahead and ordered three more boxes. This is now my to-go coffee if I need a BOOST!!!!!! If you like coffee and want to stay awake, then BUY THIS COFFEE!!! I’m happy I no longer have to take naps to get re-energized." —nancy

Promising review: "My favorite dry shampoo! It smells great and truly is sweat-activated. I wear it during some heavy workouts, and I can smell it, and it helps keep my hair from being greasy if I have plans after." —Marianna Stutts

Get it from Amazon for $9.98+ (available in two sizes). 

Promising review: "Perfect for travel. I have one in my carry-on and the second in my computer bag. You can easily coil them up and tuck them into a side pocket. So far, they work very well and seem durable. I love the fact that you have all your bases covered with the USB-C, Lightning, and Apple Watch charger." —Jane

Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in three lengths,10 colors, and packs of two). 

Promising review: "I saw on TikTok this Korean beauty influencer that I follow, and pretty much buy all her skincare products. This was one of the products that she actually used on one of her clients who had very large pores. It’s been a month, and my pores have shrunk, my face is so much clearer, and I know I’m gonna buy this product again." —jessica aquino lopez

Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (also available in a vitamin illuminating serum). 

Promising review: "Adorable, and way more useful than you'd think. I've been using it for water, it fits in my purse or pant pocket perfectly, and it holds more than you think. I bought a second one for my daughter and it was great at Disney the other day, not too heavy or cumbersome. It fit perfectly in the side outer pocket of her Loungefly mini backpack and kept her drink cold, and she just refilled it as needed." —erinm51 

Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (available in 18 styles). 

iJoy is a small business that specializes in headphones and tech accessories. 

I own a pair of these, and because I'm vain as heck and need to own all things pink, but I was decently surprised by how well they muffle noise! I feel like these are ideal for people who still want to hear some of the world around them (read: parents, people working in open offices), but still want to listen to their tunes comfortably. The charge on these goes for at least four hours (I haven't tried it beyond that yet), and the Bluetooth connects to my devices super easily. Excellent pair of headphones for the price point. 

Promising review: "These headphones surprised me. I thought they were not going to be as great because of how cheap they are, but the bass is amazing! The noise cancellation is so good that I can’t hear anything. The volume is loud and sound quality is a win, and just how I like it. Very snug and comfy, recommend! Thanks TikTok, lol :)." —Chevelle Revero

Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in five colors). 

Promising review: "These are so neat! I bought black sticky notes to go with them. All of the colors are very vivid and show well on black paper." —Sarah Moran

Promising review: "Just got this today and I love it! I needed something that would keep my hair up, but not pull and not pull it out when I removed it, as well as something that was comfortable and safe to wear while driving. I haven’t driven with it in yet BUT, I am lying in my bed, on my iPad with my head in the pillow and am very comfortable. My new holy grail for putting my hair up. Could not be happier! My hair is long, and moderate thickness, and it holds beautifully." —Kimberly A. 

Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in three sizes and five colors). 

Promising review: "Who doesn't love Bob Ross and the ease with which he would paint a spectacular landscape? This is a great way for a person like me, with no artistic ability, the opportunity to paint a beautiful picture. You will get 24 watercolor/painting pages and 12 color pages with your own pencils or markers. A paintbrush does come included with the book, so you can start painting as soon as you get it. It is very calming to dip the brush in water and, with a few strokes, create a watercolor scene." —Erinn

Pro-tip: You can also snap up a Bob Ross mini paint-by-number kit and a Bob Ross paint-by-number coloring book if you want a more hands-on activity! 

Promising review: "This pistachio butter was a hit at home. My wife and kids loved it — smooth texture, rich flavor, and not overly sweet. It tastes natural and fresh, great on toast or even by the spoonful. Definitely something we’d buy again." —José Rodríguez

Promising review: "Love this product. I prefer to make mini pancakes rather than regular pancakes, and it’s so easy to clean. The turning forks are perfect for flipping the pancakes." —Cindy C.
