Not only is it cute, it’s completely functional as well. I love that it holds so much (the large is perfect for lots of stuff, but not overly huge. I can pack water bottles, snacks, sunscreen, books/kindle, umbrella, and everything in between! I also love that I can personalize it with charms and stuff — the Bogg bag charms fit. Also, the fold-down straps are great. They don’t get in the way at all. I’ll also note that it’s super easy to clean. Just empty it and spray it out with a hose. Even the white has stayed clean. Love love love! Get this bag! You won’t regret it!" —Amoora Price: $41.99+ for the Large size (originally $69.99; available in 22 colors/prints and in Medium and Extra Large) Promising review: "This newest Kindle Colorsoft is a really fun upgrade if you love book covers, comics, and graphic novels, because the 7-inch color e-ink display makes all that artwork pop while still being easy on the eyes. You get 16 GB of storage, adjustable warm light, up to about 8 weeks of battery life, and true waterproofing, so it works well for everyday reading at home, travel, or by the pool. Being able to highlight in multiple colors and tweak page color gives you more ways to study or annotate, yet it still feels like a traditional Kindle with simple controls and access to the huge Kindle Store and Kindle Unlimited." —Amazon Customer Psst — if you already have an older Kindle device and you've been thinking about upgrading, you can get an extra 20% off with trade-in. Promising review: "These have that true baggy, relaxed Levi’s look without feeling sloppy. The denim has structure (not overly stretchy), which gives it that classic vintage feel while still being comfortable enough for all-day wear. Definitely worth the cost, they’re a staple in my closet now. The cinched waist detail helps if you want a slightly more defined shape without losing the relaxed silhouette. They sit nicely at the waist and don’t gap awkwardly in the back. Length-wise, they have that full, slightly stacked look over sneakers, which works perfectly with the baggy style. Love them!" —Zoe Price: $38+ (originally $84.95 and $59.99 at Levi's; available in women's sizes 24–34 and nine washes) You'll get an Instax Mini Link 1 in white, a 10-exposure pack of Instax Mini white border film, and an Instax Idea Booklet. Promising review: "Love my Instax. Have had it for two years, and it’s perfect for scrapbooking and giving to loved ones during cherished moments. The quality of the images is really good. I love that you can edit pics before you print them. Sometimes you have to adjust the lighting before getting the image printed bright enough, but the app is easy to figure out. Overall, worth it." —Mics Promising review: "I needed to replace my old Sonicare toothbrush. I bought a different name brand that is round (you all know the one I am talking about) because it was on sale for Black Friday. According to their marketing, the clean is superior. I have to say it is nothing compared to my Sonicare. I used it for about a month and went back to my old, worn-out Sonicare (bought in 2013 — that is a whopping 11 years, and it is still working!) I struggled along from then until Amazon Days (my personal favorite time of the year, as I start my Christmas buying then). They had this Sonicare Protective Clean on sale, and I bought it. What can I say? This one nicely replaces the old one and is more modern with a few more options, including a setting to massage your gums (getting older is a good idea). It also has a feature where if you are brushing too hard, it buzzes weirdly, which lets me know to lighten up. I love my new toothbrush! From here on out, I will stick by my tried and true Sonicare!" —Rnme2tc Price: $74.95 (originally $109.96 — and check out the rest of the Philips Sonicare deals) Promising review: "I am completely obsessed with this necklace. By far my favorite piece of jewelry I own. When looking for an evil eye necklace, I wasn't finding much that looked elegant, and I really wanted something that would look nice when I'm dressed up. This necklace couldn't be more perfect. It's so unique and classy looking. You can tell it's a quality piece of jewelry and not cheap. I gifted one to my mom for Christmas after she fell in love with mine." —Briprov Price: $78.85 (typically $119 on Amazon and $139 on Swarovski) Promising review: "Love this scent. It is perfect strength for my living room/dining area/jutchen which is all on one level., lasts a long time. Would purchase again for myself or as a gift." —Cass Price: $16.99 (originally $24.99; available in 12 scents) Promising review: "Looks adorable, good value for the money." —Janice Martin Price: $23.99 (originally $29.99 — and shop the rest of the Funko deals) Promising review: "I have had this for two years now, and it holds up excellently. It’s very heavy and great for retaining heat. I make my weekly sourdough bread in this, and I love using it for one-pot pastas. I do not see a need to buy more expensive brands because this does everything you need and it looks great." —Aaron’s Reviews Price: $69.99+ (originally $87.99+; available in 17 colors — and shop the rest of the Lodge deals) Promising review: "This body wash smells like a warm summer day. Not only does it smell good, but it’s also hydrating to your skin. The fragrance lasts all day long. Not the cheapest product, but definitely worth the splurge if you can afford it. Definitely a luxury item for me, and I enjoy it immensely. Not only is it effective as a body wash to clean your skin, but I also use it as a bubble bath. Doesn’t bubble up a whole lot, but it’s like a milk bath. You get out, and your skin feels amazing. Definitely don’t let the price startle you, and try this product! You will be sorry." —Leah T. Price: $40.60 for a 1-liter bottle (originally $58; available in other sizes — see all Sol de Janeiro deals here) Promising review: "So, I have been eyeing this keyboard since it first came out, but didn't make the jump for it due to the price. I finally saved enough money to buy it, and let me tell you, it was worth every penny! It is so comfortable to type on, the clicks are so lovely to hear, and it's stinking pretty!! I love all the customizations you can make with the lights! For example, I have a profile for when I'm gaming, and I 'highlight' (aka change the color) all my keys for the game so it's easier to see. I think it's such a beautiful keyboard, and it works great with the G705 mouse I have. If you are thinking about buying this, do yourself a favor and treat ya self lol" —KelseyRae Price: $129.99 (originally $219.99 — and shop the rest of Logitech's deals here) Want more facts and figures? Great! That's what I'm here for. This has 4K picture, Dolby sound, and ~WiFi 6~ to help with uninterrupted streaming, plus smart search so you can find a movie or TV show by actor, genre, or even quote. Promising review: "I was not sure if I should upgrade my old Fire TV Stick with a new one. When it went on sale, I took the chance. I was not sure if it would really make a difference in picture quality. When I got it, the installation was soooo easy (even for me), it did most of the work by itself. Just when the homepage for Prime came up, I could immediately tell the difference!!! The color was so bright, and the picture was super sharp. My family can have as many as five gadgets working at any time, but there was no slowdown or long loading. In short, it is worth getting a new, upgraded Fire TV Stick. I really am happy with this addition to my system." —History 101 Price: $24.99 (originally $49.99) — and shop more Amazon device deals here Promising review: "The LEGO Technic Lamborghini Huracán Tecnica in orange is absolutely incredible! From the moment I opened the box, I was blown away by the attention to detail and the vibrant color — it really pops on display. The build was fun and challenging in all the right ways, with smooth mechanics and clever design throughout. The finished model looks just like the real thing, complete with realistic steering, engine detail, and a sleek aerodynamic shape. It’s solid and well-built, and I love how the Technic elements make it feel more like an engineering project than just a toy. If you’re a fan of supercars, Lamborghini, or just great LEGO builds, this is a set you don’t want to miss. 10/10!" —Steven G. Promising review: "Great quality, and already came completely assembled. Lightweight when it's empty and easy to pull around. Keeps drinks cold for about three days before I emptied it, but could probably go longer. It's huge and very spacious." —Lilly Promising review: "The sound quality is rich and immersive. Active noise cancellation is incredibly effective, perfect for travel or work. They fit comfortably and stay secure even during long listening sessions. Battery life easily gets me through the day without stress. Seamless pairing with my Pixel phone makes everything effortless. Top-tier earbuds that truly deliver premium performance and comfort." —Rey N. Price: $169 (originally $229; available in four colors — and check out the rest of the Google Pixel deals) Psst…It's also alcohol-free, paraben-free, and fragrance-free, making it perfect for even the most sensitive skin types. Promising review: "For a toner, this is SO hydrating and just heavenly. It's perfect for makeup prep as it has just a tad of tackiness right after applying. Goes on under my serums and moisturizer perfectly, and I've noticed a huge difference in my skin. I saw it recommended by a YouTuber and tried it, and it's now a daily use for me, which is rare because I have very sensitive, acne-prone skin, and I'm very picky about skincare. I can't recommend this enough, truly." —Amazon Customer Price: $17.50 (originally $25; also available in smaller sizes and a lighter version) — and shop all the TirTir deals here Check out this TikTok of Mikayla Nogueira's review of this foundation. Promising review: "I struggle with finding a foundation that's not orange. Someone recommended I try a Korean product, and this started going viral around the same time. I lucked into a perfect color match on the first try, but I've learned there are sample packs if you aren't sure about the color. The coverage is incredible. It was very lightweight, not heavy at all. It did settle into my under-eye wrinkles without primer, so if you're older, that's something to keep in mind. Overall, beautiful and long-lasting. This will be my go-to foundation from now on." —AJ Bond Price: $17.50 (originally $25; available in 39 shades and a mini size — and see all TirTir deals here) Promising review: "Good construction. Grip solidly and yet are gentle to hair." —CompuPlace Promising review: "I was on the verge of buying a $400 vacuum when I came across this one. Super easy to assemble and use! It got ALL the dirt on our vinyl and carpet. I’m so glad I got this one. Additionally, we have a furry family member who sheds a TON. This vacuum is going to be a huge help in keeping our home less hairy. Great buy!" —Karis S Price: $149.95 (originally $199.99 — and shop the rest of Shark's deals) BuzzFeed editor Chelsea Stuart LOVES this stuff — check out her full review of Medicube's Collagen Overnight Wrapping Mask here. Promising review: "I’ve tried tons of Korean skincare products, but the Medicube Collagen Overnight Wrapping Mask is easily one of the most effective overnight treatments I’ve used. From the very first night, I noticed a visible difference in hydration and skin texture — I woke up with skin that felt plumper, firmer, and more radiant. The formula applies smoothly and dries down into a light, flexible peel-off film, which helps lock in moisture and collagen while you sleep. It doesn’t feel sticky or tight, and it’s comfortable enough to wear through the night. Peeling it off in the morning is super satisfying, and it leaves no residue behind. What sets this mask apart is the hydrolyzed collagen — it really helps improve skin elasticity and reduce that dull, tired look. After consistent use, my jawline looks more defined, and my skin has a healthy, dewy bounce. It’s like a mini spa treatment in a tube! If you’re struggling with sagging, dryness, or dullness, this product is absolutely worth trying. It’s gentle, effective, and fits seamlessly into a nighttime routine. Plus, it feels luxurious without the high-end price tag. K-Beauty does it again! Highly recommend for anyone looking to restore glow, firmness, and hydration overnight." —Nasha May Price: $14.90 (originally $18.90; available in four formulas — and see all Medicube deals here) Promising review: "These Medicube pads have literally healed my skin. I started using them regularly and noticed such a big difference in how clear and smooth my face looks. They’re gentle but effective, and my skin feels healthier with each use. I love that they’re easy to use and don’t irritate my skin at all. Honestly, they’ve become one of my favorite skincare products, and I don’t think I could go without them now." —demian Price: $14.90 (typically $18.90 — see all Medicube deals here) Promising review: "We love our ninja. We used to have another one of the top brands. This is half the price and works just as well. The quality is great. I make a lot of smoothies, and it handles ice with ease. I've also used it to chop up Oreos. No leaking and plenty of room to make even a couple shakes. The noise level is normal for a blender." —Amazon Customer Price: $79.99 for the 1200-watt version (originally $109.99 — and shop the rest of Ninja's deals) Promising review: "This is gonna save me so much money! I would stop every day to get an iced latte from Starbucks, and now I just make them at home! It’s fresh and delicious, and I can add as much espresso as I want to make it as strong as I want. I’m recommending this to all of my friends already, and I’ve only had it for two days." —Ashley Gonzales Price: $99 (originally $139; available in six colors — and shop the rest of the Nespresso deals) Promising review: "I've been really happy with the Breville Barista Express espresso machine. The stylish design and built-in grinder make me feel like a true coffee connoisseur. The quick heat-up time and adjustable grind size make it easy to customize my perfect shot. And the programmable shot volume ensures consistent espresso shots every time. Plus, the bonus of being able to claim the title of 'at-home barista' is a definite plus. Highly recommend this machine to any coffee lover out there!" —Ashleigh Johnson Price: $549.95 (originally $699.95; available in two colors) — explore Breville's deals here. Go ahead and ROYGBIV all over the dang place. Promising review: "These markers are amazing! The color quality is good, and the size of the marker itself is great, and it is easy to hold. These markers don't dry quickly and are still working today. They also don't bleed and are good for coloring. I highly recommend." —Holymsophy Price: $24.99 (typically $42.74) — find more Caliart deals here. This was my Prime Day 2020 purchase, and I love it! I had been waking up with watery eyes and the sniffles and desperately wanted some relief. I joked to my partner that this bad boy looked like an iPod shuffle...but its air-filtering capabilities are no laughing matter! Now, I wake up feeling refreshed instead of congested. Plus, I really feel like this air filter is able to detect changes in the air. Case in point: when I made fish a room away, the LED turned from blue (indicating good air quality) to red (indicating poor air quality), and the purifier jumped into action. Promising review: "I bought these during the summer Prime Day sale after rolling my eyes a bit at all the raving 5-star reviews that read a bit over the top. But I needed new food storage containers, so I went for it. And now here I am eating crow, writing my own raving 5-star review. These are by far the BEST food storage containers I’ve ever used. I love how clear they are. I like seeing my food, and I find I’m eating more colorful fruits and veggies because they look pretty. And these things seal tight, my soup has never leaked out. And the best part? They do NOT stain. Like, at all. Leave spaghetti in there for a few days, and still it washes easily with no staining. Top shelf dishwasher safe works great, but no stains even with handwashing. Just buy them, they are worth the hype." —Stephanie Price: $25.98 for a set of five (originally $39.99, available in a set of two, three, four, five, six, seven, 12, and 22, and in a variety of sizes) P.S. the cell pouch is suitable for phones, keys, wallets, chapstick...whatever you'd like to keep contained. It's attatched to a lanyard hook and can either tuck inside the bag or hang outside — keeping things easy to reach. Promising review: "OK, I’m not going to sugarcoat this. I am obsessed with bags, cups, and all things pink. I did not think that I would like this purple bag, but it is absolutely gorgeous, especially in the sun. It’s large enough to hold everything, and then some, that I took it to the pool. There are no scratches on the bottom so it holds up well and I it's so supportive I could probably put my 3-year-old grandson in it. This is by far the best bag I have ever purchased. Yes, I have the entire set and I LOVE IT!!! OBSESSED!!!!" —The Twisted Mommy Price: $47.99 (originally $79.99; available in eight colors) BuzzFeed writer Mal Mower says, "I was so excited to be able to throw this bra into a post! I've had this for several months now. After buying my first one, I ended up getting...too many more. I had a double mastectomy last year, and finding bras that provide enough support without having underwire is a challenge. Ones that are also comfortable are an even bigger ask, and this does it all! I've recommended this to friends of mine who have natural breasts, and they've loved it just as much as I have. It's a real winner for us all!" Promising review: "I am obsessed with these bras. I originally bought two just to try, and ended up buying more because I love them so much. I’m a 40C, and I love how supported I feel in these. They are so soft and comfortable, and I appreciate the extension they provide with each bra. The straps stay in place, and the bra overall is quite stretchy. They are good quality for the price. They are a very good everyday bra to have." —Lauren Price: $18.98+ (originally $27.99; available in sizes XS–3XL and 21 colors) — check out all of Oeak's deals here. And for any parents in the audience, it's not specifically a diaper bag, but many reviewers recommend getting this instead! It helps that it's crafted with water-resistant fabric and has many compartments, like a padded laptop pocket (great for storing your kid's iPad in – no judgement here). Promising review: "Great bag with plenty of storage. Larger than what I wanted it for (daily use), yet I know I’ll still use it often, whether on day trips or, honestly, any traveling. Light/featherweight, soft material and roomy interior with separation dividers and pockets. Sturdy zippers. Seems carefully-crafted. Love it and bought it in two colors … might get a third!" —Lanna Price: $25.26+ (originally $32.54; available in three sizes and 13 colors) — you can find BagSmart's featured deals here Promising review: "My hair is on the 'bigger' side, so headphones tend to become uncomfortable after an hour or two of usage. However, these are so comfortable and light that I often forget I've got them on. I'm by no means an expert on this topic, but the sound quality these headphones provide is unreal. When listening to my favorite songs, I pick up on background instruments I was previously unable to. It's just so amazing to be able to listen to music like this. The noise cancellation is also top-tier. Even in a crowded room, noise just disappears with the press of a button. Transparent mode works extremely well, too. I love being able to hold a conversation while still being able to hear my music. I HIGHLY recommend these headphones for anyone looking for a more budget-friendly alternative to more pricy competitors." —Shanae Price: $199.95 (typically $349.99; available in four colors) Visible LED devices only treat pimples, and results vary depending on the person: read more about how to use them at the American Academy of Dermatology. Promising review: "I’ve tried a couple of LED masks before, but this one feels totally different. I love that I can just lie in bed, wear it, and still scroll on my phone — no need to hold anything or stay super still. It’s super convenient. Didn’t really see much change the first two days, but by day three, my skin looked smoother and a bit brighter. Definitely didn’t expect results that fast. And compared to other masks I’ve looked at, this one actually feels more affordable for what it offers. I’m gonna keep using it and see how it goes over the next few weeks, but so far, really liking it!" —Amazo Price: $298.99 (originally $399 — and shop all the Ulike deals here) Promising reviews: "The Fitbit Charge 6 Fitness Tracker continues the brand’s legacy of providing users with a sleek, feature-packed wearable that blends fitness tracking, health monitoring, and smart features in a compact design. Building on the success of its predecessors, the Charge 6 introduces new sensors, enhanced accuracy, and a more refined user experience. Whether you're an athlete, casual fitness enthusiast, or someone looking to improve your health, the Fitbit Charge 6 offers a versatile solution for tracking physical activity, sleep, heart health, and much more." —Mike "I got this to help remind me to move. It does its job! It periodically buzzes twice, reminding me to walk 250 steps. It’s pretty comfortable and withstood swimming just fine. Would recommend as a good alternative to an Apple Watch." —Adam A Price: $119.95 (originally $159.95; available in three colors) — and shop all the Fitbit deals here Promising review: "I love Urban Decay eyeliner. Colors are bright and vibrant. Plus, they don’t run; they stay in place. I’ve used this eyeliner for the last 10 years, and I have several colors I switch between. Plus, it’s a longer pencil than most other brands, so you can get more out of it." —Susan E. Stribling Price: $18.40 (originally $23; available in 25 colors — and see all Urban Decay deals here) Check out a TikTok of this mask in action. Promising review: "Oh…my god… 🤯 No scent. It starts milky white and turns clear. I left it on overnight, woke up, and I was shook!! Pores? Where? Dry patch? Where? Fine wrinkles? Whheeerrrrrre??? Put it on over my lips as well, and it almost looked like I had fillers. It was so plump! 10/10 recommend. Holy grail of face masks <3" —Kichi Price: $15.20 for a pack of four (originally $19; available in four styles; also available in a 16-count — and see all Biodance deals here) Promising review: "I absolutely love this heating pad!! There are up to 9 heat settings, and you can adjust the time from 30 minutes to 9 hours with an auto shut-off! I have tons of neck issues and have been using a normal heating pad curled around my neck. This is not only shaped perfectly with the collar to fit, but it’s weighted just enough to hold it in place, but not feel too heavy and cause more pain. It also has a small button clip with an extender to connect the front and hold it in place. The fabric is so soft and the blue is very pretty! Never thought I would be so excited for a heating pad, but this is a game changer!!" —Amber Price: $35.99+ (originally $44.99; available in three colors — discounts vary by color; This is a Prime-exclusive deal; non-Prime members can get it for $44.99) FYI, depending on your situation, water may be enough to rehydrate you! Read more about electrolyte-enhanced drinks and hydration at Cleveland Clinic. Promising review: "Liquid I.V. does an amazing job hydrating. I purchased their product for 40+ employees who work in a construction-related industry. Hydration is so important while working in the hot Georgia Sun, and this product aids in this 100%. Now, let’s talk about the firecracker flavor! When we produced these for our crew, ages 23–60, all of their eyes lit up, and they were super excited. Many of them did not know this flavor existed. Quite honestly, I didn’t either until I came across them on Amazon. They all loved the flavor. In particular, the ones who were older kept telling me it tasted like their childhood. Seriously, who hasn’t stood outside an ice cream truck ordering the Firecracker Popsicle?" —Disney Diva Price: $17.72+ (originally $23.62; available in 17 flavors) Promising review: "These leggings are perfect for working out or casual wear! The sizing was great. They have compression, but are not suffocating. The fabric is super soft, has two pockets, and they're super comfy. They make for the perfect gym selfie!" —Brittany Strohm Price: $19.99+ (typically $29.99+; available in women's sizes XS–4XL and in dozens of colors) In order to get the full SPF of foundation/makeup products, you need to use more than you'd normally put on your face, so note that this should be paired with an actual sunscreen underneath.

Sothen Price: $31.20 (originally $39; available in 24 shades) — and shop all the It Cosmetics deals here Promising reviews: "I decided to trust a TikTok that I saw featuring these pillows and checked out the reviews here and saw the hype. They are SERIOUSLY THE BEST PILLOWS EVER! Trust the reviews. Took two minutes to fluff up to use and both my fiancé and I are having the best sleeps now." —Ellen "These had great reviews, but I was still a bit skeptical. I'm a bit of a pillow snob. These pillows — these amazing, heavenly pillows — are now my favorite part of going to bed. Soft but firm. How does that work? It gives support for me to sleep slightly propped up, but I sink into this comfortable personal cloud. Soft, but firm. My head isn't sinking through the pillow to rest on my mattress, but I feel comfortably enveloped. Buy them. Add to cart. Buy now with one click. Stop the research. You've found the pillows you were looking for." —Marissa Urey Price: $41.98 for the queen size (typically $59.99) Promising review: "I didn’t realize how much of a difference a pillowcase could make until I tried this one! The satin feels so soft and luxurious — I wake up with smoother hair, no frizz, and my skin looks refreshed instead of creased. The zipper keeps it perfectly in place all night, and it stays cool and breathable even when I sleep warm. It’s easy to wash, super durable, and honestly feels way more expensive than it is. If you want better hair and glowing skin, this satin pillowcase is a must-have!" —Melissa Monell Price: $15.19+ (originally $18.99+; available in two sizes and 17 colors/designs — and see all Kitsch deals here) Promising reviews: "I can't say enough good things about these sheets. I was waking up at night HOT all the time, and thinking it was a physical thing for me personally. I was reading online and stumbled on these and thought, 'Hmmm...wonder if my uber-expensive sheets are actually making me hot at night??' I ordered these, and I'm sleeping like a baby now. No more night sweats. Ordering some for my son as well. Game changer! High quality and exceptional price." —J. Marshall "I read from other reviews these sheets were soft, so I wasn't too surprised when I received them, and man, are they soft and so comfortable. We have Egyptian cotton sheets that were expensive, and I promise we have changed them back out for the comfort of these sheets. The cotton sheets were cold, and these were just right. The other thing is my husband has thin skin that any nick he will bleed. Well he has bled on these white sheets and when we washed them (in cold water as instructed) the blood always comes out and never stains. I can't say enough great things about them except to say all three of my adult kids are receiving a set as part of their Christmas!" —Sheree Chrestman Price: $29.97 (for the queen size; typically $39.33; available in sizes twin–California king, plus sheet sets with deep pockets for taller mattresses and 40 colors and patterns) Dae is a small business that specializes in haircare and styling products. Promising review: "This is the second time I've bought this product. It might seem pricey, but honestly, it's not. I used it every day for my slicked-back ponytail, and it lasted me a long, long time. It smells amazing. It holds really well without making your hair feel crusty or greasy. It actually feels natural and soft." —Pedro ramos Price: $24 (originally $30 — and see all Dae deals here) BuzzFeed Shopping is service journalism first: our writers and editors spend all day shopping so you don’t have to, vetting products, fact-checking brand claims, and surfacing what actually helps in real life.
