Promising review: "GIRRRRRLLL — YES!!! Obsessed with this!!! The fit is interesting — I got a medium, as suggested for an oversize fit, but honestly, I think a large would have been better for me. I still love this jacket, though — quality is amazing, and it's such a standout piece!" —Lauren Price: $55.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and 10 styles) Promising review: "I had never used a 'cake leveler' before, although I had tried the procedure with a knife a couple of times, with disastrous results. This thing...what a great idea! I was making a special cake for a special birthday, and I wanted the layers to be even. I baked four layers, de-panned them, and let them cool completely in the fridge for an hour (as recommended to me). I actually baked enough layers for two cakes, just in case I had a horrible accident while leveling and needed to start over. When the moment came to level, I approached the cake with some trepidation, but I needn't have worried. The leveler sliced easily through each layer, with no tearing and no crumbling, and gave me perfectly flat tops. I ended up with two nearly perfect cakes. The trick is to be firm, but not rushed. A gentle sawing action did the trick. I will definitely be using this item a lot. My cakes finally look more like those made by the pros! Love it." —Dr H Promising review: "Love! These are so cute and so comfortable! I get so many compliments on them." —Jessica R. Price: $9.95 (available in seven colors) Promising review: "OMG, I love this duvet! It’s so freaking pretty! It’s a little bit larger than the comforters I use, but that’s fine. Buy one; you will not be disappointed." —Lupe McCoy Price: $52.99+ (available in sizes Twin–California king and 18 colors) Promising review: "This warmer is beautiful! It melts the wax evenly and really distributes the scent well in a room. I keep this on my nightstand next to my bed. The glow of the artificial fire is a nice touch. I also like that it has a wire mesh cover. It keeps my dog from sticking his nose in the melted wax. 10/10, would recommend!" —S. Lane Price: $20.99+ (available in two styles) Promising review: "If I could give it ten stars, I would! Excellent product across the board! The scent is sumptuous! It lasts a long time on your skin. You are moisturized beyond any product I've ever used. My skin looks less dry even after toweling off, and it's not greasy or slimy to the touch. It makes your skin glow!" —Alafia Price: $12+ (available in three sizes, a refill bottle, and multi-packs) Promising review: "Made many drinks, especially margaritas, and they turn out great. Easy to load, comfortable to shake, good for temporarily storing cocktails, and stainless steel cleans up nicely. The cool 1950s sci-fi rocket looks too cool, especially with ice and the accumulated condensation on the outside." —Crunch Promising reviews: "This scarf is exactly as it is described. It is soft and not scratchy on your skin, and it is really warm. The length allows you to style it several ways. I was able to drape it over my shoulders as a shawl and put my coat over it; it added extra warmth on really cold days. The color is vibrant. It's overall a great scarf." —Jennilyn Dyer Price: $14.99 (available in nine colors) Promising review: "I bought this on impulse because the serum I had been using previously was out of stock, and I am so glad I did. It moisturized and brightened my skin within the first use!!! I am 52 years old, and within a few days of using this, my skin looked so vibrant and glowing!!! I highly recommend everyone try it! You will see the difference in the appearance and texture of your skin. I absolutely love this product." —DooBee Doobee's 🐝 Price: $19.58+ (available in two sizes and another formula) Promising review: "This tool is AMAZING! Like with anything, there are nooks and crannies to clean, BUT they provide a brush to clean them with. The product itself is easy to use and saved me SO much time! I just prepared a recipe that required a lot of 'chopping,' and I think this thing saved me 30 minutes! I wish I had bought it sooner!" —Craig J Price: $29.97+ (available in three colors) Promising review: "This adorable little guy is perfect to keep a seal on your bottle while also easily being able to pour another glass." —Luke Graham Promising review: "High quality and it's the perfect key rack for my entryway. The details are phenomenal." —Mikayla Promising review: "I LOVE this shacket! A perfect piece to wear all year! Will be ordering more!" —Brittany Price: $29.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 37 colors) Promising review: "I love this spray! I have extra-dry skin and use this over my serums and moisturizers, then apply my mineral foundation powder, which can look dry sometimes, so I spritz on after! It's light, refreshing, and cooling, and has a natural fresh scent that I love. Not heavy or greasy. My skin has a dewy glow. You can reapply throughout the day if you choose!" —Jacqueline M. Price: $49+ (available in two sizes and a two-pack) Promising review: "I love this rice cooker. I've used it a dozen times. It cooks rice so fast. I use the small cup they provide, fill the rice to the top, and then add two of the same small cups of water. Hit the cook button and go on to do other things. When it's done, it's warm. I don't add any butter or salt; the rice is cooked perfectly. The pot is nonstick, so very easy to clean up. Highly recommend." —DRG Price: $24.99+ (available in five colors) Promising review: "This is the second one I've bought. It is super warm and so cozy. Very much like the Barefoot Dreams material. It runs super oversize, so I suggest sizing down one or even two sizes. I'm keeping mine to wear with leggings for that big on top, cozy look, but I would size down if I bought another to wear with jeans/pants." —Tina B Price: $39.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and 33 colors) Promising review: "I didn’t expect this to work so well. I'm going to start an internship in the fall, working with kids, and I won’t have time to reapply my lip liner during the day, so I thought I'd get this lip tint. I am SO happy I did it; it lasted all day, and when I went to bed, I woke up with it still on after eating and drinking. I highly recommend this product and can’t wait to use it for my internship. :) I got the shade rose, and I like mauve colored lip liners, and the rose was close enough to be mauve, so I do love it, and you can put it on twice for a bolder color." —Merazhia Promising review: "This is SO handy! I was thinking of it, particularly for Thanksgiving, but I have already used it for several cooking times. Takes a little practice setting, but once you do it a couple of times, it's easy. Nice loud alarm. Does not shut off until you shut it off." —shopping genie Promising reviews: "For us lazy cookers! I use this at least three times a week. Great, so you don’t have to stand in the kitchen waiting for your food." —Craig R Payne III "Since I started cooking sous vide, my family says my cooking has gone to a new level. I started with the original Anova, and just recently picked up this Nano. The Nano is awesome because it's much smaller compared to the first Anova, making it easier to store in a drawer. It sounds trivial, but by making it easier to grab, I'm more likely to use it compared to the Anova, which I kept in a special case in the pantry. Setup is so much quicker, and I can cook a beef roast for 30 hours without adding ANY water. If you're just starting out in sous vide, I recommend this cooker." —Jeff Nichols Promising reviews: "Very cute and comfortable. I have wide feet, and these were perfect. I wore them to a wedding, and I had no complaints!" —M. Barron Price: $22.70+ (available in sizes 5–13 and six colors) Reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.
