Warning: these Birkenstock-like sandals are so comfy, you’re gonna want them in every color.

I'm Samar Hadri and I'm a Resident Writer on the BuzzFeed Shopping team, where I write about a wide range of topics like travel, parenting, fitness, home decor, and fashion.

It also features adjustable warm light that's much easier on your eyes.

BuzzFeed Shopping contributor Abby Kass swears by her Kindle as a travel must-have: "Yes, that is me sitting in a pool in Hawaii holding my Kindle over the water without fear or stress that if it falls in, it will break. Truly living my best life."

Promising review: "I wasn’t sure if I needed a Kindle at first, but the Paperwhite totally won me over. It’s super lightweight, easy on the eyes, and the warm light makes nighttime reading so much better. The battery lasts forever, which I love because I hate charging devices all the time. Being able to carry so many books in one place is such a plus. Definitely worth it if you love reading!" —House

Price: $111.07 (available in three colors, 8 or 16 GB, and with or without lockscreen ads)

Promising review: "I pretty much love everything about this romper. I ordered the dark green, but I want it in every color! It is super comfortable. Even right out of the package, it wasn't very wrinkled. The material wasn't too thick or thin. I wore it in summer with sandals, but I think you could easily add a sweater/tights/boots for a cute fall look. It was easy to get on/off in the bathroom (one small button at the back of the neck)... And, best of all, it has pockets!!!" —Jessica K.

Price: $27.99 (available in women's sizes S–XL and 17 colors)

Promising review: "The hype on TikTok is real about this scent. It’s very warm and vanilla-smelling. Almost like a beachy vibe. I hate how no one would give me any kind of explanation on how it smelled, but glad I jumped on the bandwagon with this one." —Karli Bullins

Price: $26 (available in 14 other scents and two sizes)

It has a large surface and can carry up to five gallons of water. Super easy to assemble and super easy to clean with a built-in drainer.

Promising review: "Bought for my son's first birthday and even used it at his party. It's a hit. He loves it so much and it's a great way to keep cool in the summer months. Will keep him busy for a long time and plenty of room around the table for friends. Could also leave off the legs of the table for littles who aren't quite standing yet. Lightweight (when empty) and easy to store. Easy to clean. Easy to assemble, did require some drilling to be sure things were sturdy. Comes with lots of toys and accessories to encourage a variety of sensory play. Super sturdy, I have a 99th percentile kid who plays rough, and we've had no concern about tipping. Great fun! Buy it!!" —Dani

Promising review: "I normally don’t love lip products. I have small lips and I am never really satisfied! But this stuff is sooooo good! You don’t even understand how moisturizing and glossy this is. It’s not sticky, very pigmented, and the stain it leaves behind is gorgeous! I got the Rosie one, and it's chef's kiss perfect! I’m totally getting more!" —Katherine Stanton 

Promising review: "Very glam in a '50s starlet way, a real bikini feel without being super exposed. I hate swimsuits, and this is the first one I've worn in about 10 years. I felt confident in it and really enjoyed myself at the weekend getaway. The little cutout makes it sexy to wear with a sarong or wrap for when you need to take a break from the poolside." —Ms. Willows

Price: $36.99+ (available in sizes XS–22 Plus, and 27 colors)

Reviewers mention that if you're between sizes, size up! 

Promising review: "This suit is so pretty! I was nervous that for the price, it would be poor quality, but it looks just like the photos. The material is nice and thick, and I love that it’s padded. I’m between a small and medium, so I sized up based on other reviews." —Morgan Meldrum

Price: $33.99+ (available in sizes 2–16 and in eight styles)

Promising review: "Perfect. Have used these for hiking and business travel. Can't imagine anyone having a bad thing to say about them." —G. B. 

Price: $8.99+ (available in 18 colors and six sizes)

Promising review: "This product is witchcraft. My nails have always been brittle, flaky, and super prone to just breaking. Because of all that, I had the nasty habit of biting them. I didn’t take before or after but the image with no polish is just three days of use. My nails have been growing like [wild] since then and are stronger than ever in my life. The image with polish is about a month of use (once a day). Also, it helped me to stop biting my nails. I can now do my own nails and shape them the way I want. Never in my life did I think I’d have nails I could shape myself. I don’t leave a lot of reviews, but trust me when I say this product is worth the hype. I’m definitely a returning customer." —Andrea

Price: $9.99+ (available in three sizes and packs of two)

Bug Bite Thing is a family-owned small business established in 2017 that specializes in bug bite relief products. 

This works on mosquitoes, bees, wasps, biting flies, sea lice, and more (seriously, where was this on my last hiking trip?)

Promising review: "I bought this because I saw it on TikTok, and have been having issues with mosquito bites. Used it a few times to relieve itchiness, and I am convinced it works! Have been recommending it to my family and friends. Read the directions and follow them carefully. Don't use this on your face or neck, or other sensitive areas. Don't do a lot of suction, just a little bit. And do it a few times if needed. Great invention!" —Joe

Check out a TikTok of the mosquito-repelling bracelets in action. 

Promising review: "I moved last year from Southern California to North Carolina. Bugs of all types have always been attracted to me but the amount of bites I got last summer was WILD. Someone gave me one of these types of bracelets to use one day and it seemed to work SOOOOOO I decided to buy myself an arsenal to prepare for this summer. I read the reviews and about 99% of them had great results. I've only used this bracelet twice, but both times I was outside and untouched. Delivery was very quick so that was a plus. I'm not fond of the smell, I'm hyper sensitive to smells, but I'd rather have the odor than being chewed alive." —Tracey Agopian

Price: $9.99 (available in various pack sizes and styles)

The shade Cheers to No Smears is featured above on the left, and the shade Fast Foodie is featured on the right.

Promising review: "I just love this nail polish! Love the color and how fast it dries. I will order again." —Georgie 

Promising review: "I have a pair of the Aerie crossover flare leggings, and those are worn out, so I decided to purchase another pair because I can’t live without my flares! Y'all, these leggings are the truth!! I have never seen such a great [alternative] for the Aerie ones. They feel like butter soft on your skin and have the same durability and thickness, even the same stitching!! Save your money and get these!!!" —Jasmine

Price: $14.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–XXL, four inseams, and in 27 colors)

This set also comes with plastic gloves, a plastic cover, and rubber bands.

Promising review: "Bought these as an activity for teenagers. Dye color is vibrant and beautiful. We first made the designs using the provided directions and rubber bands, then dry dyed the shirts. We left the shirts in bags for 24 hrs and then washed them outside with a hose to not get the ink/dye all over. We then let the shirts dry outside in the sun, then we rinsed and dried them in the washer, then washed and dried them again. Color has stayed beautifully, and kids love the shirts!" —Ariss M

Reviewer on the left is wearing the shade Pink Ice, reviewer on the right is wearing the shade Mink Brown.

Promising review: "I bought a couple of these lipsticks some time ago, and I was expecting nothing from them, and they delivered a lot. These lipsticks are very pigmented and creamy. One application will last several hours. They are moisturizing, and they look great on your lips." —Yise

Promising review: "As someone who owns multiple pairs of Birks, these sandals are absolutely up to the expectations of real Birks! The Birks I have are the Arizona soft footbed. I wanted this style of Birks, but I couldn’t find the soft footbed version in them. I saw these and thought I might as well try them for the price. Let me tell you, these are even comfier than my soft-footbed Arizona Birks! Omg, they feel amazing. They are nice and padded! They are so adorable, too! Great quality." —Lee

Price: $49.99 (available in women's sizes 5–12, two widths, and 20 colors)

Promising review: "After trying a bunch of different sports bras and tops, I came across this one. I absolutely love it. It’s super supportive and comfortable. The adjustable straps help make this the perfect fit." —Perrone

Price: $23.80 (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and 15 colors) 

Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly has to say about it: "I first bought this for a weeklong Croatian vacation last year when I did carry-on, and as long as you are *thoroughly* reapplying, this stuff stays on pretty well. On a beach club afternoon, I did haphazardly reapply and missed a strip on one arm, but I tend to do that with spray-on or lotion sunscreen, too. Since then, I've packed this for any trip I've been on, including a two-day Disneyland trip where I toted this around in my bag and shared it with friends. I sometimes carry it with me in my purse on my everyday adventures because I know it's so easy to apply. Also worth mentioning...I am about the palest lady you've ever seen and swear by daily application of sunscreen. But when on a beach trip, I'm constantly swimming in the water and sweating. So yeah, this stuff works. 

And if you're a bit hesitant about jumping on the solid sunscreen bandwagon, you can pack a stick of this, knowing you have enough sun protection to get you through to finding some spray-on or lotion SPF at your destination." 

You can also spray it on all over if you need some quick head-to-toe moisture when you're in a hurry.

Promising review: "I wish I could rate this 100 stars. This stuff is INCREDIBLE... My skin instantly looks and feels hydrated, fresh, glowing, and comfortable. I am already on my third bottle of this; it is wonderful to incorporate into skincare as a first step, in between other products, as a setting/finishing spray for makeup, or throughout the day when your skin needs a little refresher. I wish they'd make a jumbo size of this (like, 10+ oz), because I would douse my entire body in this formula if I could." —bex–7

Price: $15.99+ (available in two sizes and a two-pack)

Promising review: "Product works just as described! Our kiddos are 3 and 1, and both love to use it. We love that the pen can be attached and that we can lock the screen if we want to. Perfect for at home, car travel, and when we need the kids quiet and entertained." —Sean C

Price: $15.99+ (available in five sizes and eight colors)

Promising review: "I'm purchasing my third and fourth sets of these sheets today. One will be a gift for my mom and dad. Over a year later, I've had no issues at all. They continue to wash and fit perfectly and are easily adaptable for weather changes. I add a flannel top sheet or blanket when chilly. Can't be beat for under $20 a set." —nativepeach

Price: $9.97+ (available in seven sizes and 44 colors and patterns)

Promising review: "When I first saw the advertisement for this product, I thought it was too good to be true, so I purchased it to see if it truly worked, and it absolutely did... I have 4c hair and everything I have ever used never worked — my hair would get frizzy or even go back to curly as soon as I stepped outside. I had no frizz, no static, and my hair was SO SOFT and it lasted a week and a half. I LOVE this product." —Chy Marie

Price: $14+ (available in two sizes; also available in an extra strength version and a version for curly hair)

If you're looking for a water-based cleanser to go with this one, reviewers love this pore-deep cleansing foam from the same brand for their double-cleansing routine! 

Promising review: "My skin is *super* sensitive, but as I've aged (44 years), I feel like my pores have become more visible. I hadn't used an oil cleanser before and wasn't 100% sure how it should all work. The Anua oil cleanser works how we all once hoped Biore pore strips would work back in the day but without any pain or irritation. My skin is combination skin, so I have to be really careful about not drying out the dry spots (and getting eczema) and not over-hydrating the oily spots (and getting a breakout). I rub the oil on my face as the first part of my cleansing routine; I massage it in for ~60 seconds and then put a small amount of water on my fingers and begin rubbing that on my face. The water starts the emulsification process and helps to clean out everything the oil has bonded to/mixed with. Then, I just rinse it clean and use a gentle cleanser afterward. I haven't had any irritation, redness, or fallout from adding this product to my skincare routine. I love it. I am almost through my first bottle and if I go a few days without using the cleanser, my pores become more visible/dirty again. I will definitely keep purchasing the Anua oil cleanser." —Tassa

Check out a TikTok of the Monday Dry Shampoo in action. 

Promising review: "I was thoroughly impressed with this dry shampoo. It's affordable, effective, and everyone compliments how great I smell when I use it. Two bottles lasted me a few months. It does have a white cast, but that can easily be worked into the hair to become undetectable." —Meg B. 

Promising review: "I’ve tried so many nipple covers over the years, and these are just in a league of their own! They stick and don’t move (sweat, clothes, moisturizer, etc. — nothing budges them), but then they peel off so easily. It’s magic. They are completely seamless, and my husband (without prompting) said they looked like a second skin. I’ve got quite 'triangular' boobs, and they completely mold to the shape and look like I just have no nipples lol. Only when I’m suuuuuper cold does any level of nipple start to show through, and even then, it’s minimal. They’re more pricey than others I’ve bought before but so worth it. The others were one-and-done — these have held up through several wears and are still in perfect condition. Will repurchase them as soon as they wear out, without a doubt! No more bras!" —Alison

BuzzFeed editor Natalie Brown swears by these pasties! Check out her Nippies review to learn more.

Price: $26.50+ (available in five shades and three sizes: one that fits cups A–C, one that fits cups D+, and one that fits cups DD+)

Promising review: "I saw my little neighbor be absolutely delighted in receiving this bubbling lawn mower, and he has used it nearly every day for the past year. I copied his grandparents' great idea and got one for my grandson and he is equally captivated by it! Get an extra gallon of bubbles to send with it if it is a gift!" —One Concerned Prof 

Psst — lots of reviewers say this fits their Stanley cup *and* the cheaper alternative versions of it, like this $20+ Simple Modern tumbler. 

Promising review: "Easy to clean. Holds a lot of different snacks. Lightweight. Color is beautiful. Fun to use. Good gift idea." —Mc

Price: $9.99 (available in two sizes and five colors)

Promising review: "Where has this been all my life!! We have one long-haired cat and three dogs — suffice it to say, shedding hair is a big problem on every cloth-like surface in our home. No more vacuuming the couches and chairs like wild when you have this around. This picks up hair quickly and easily when used correctly (fast back-and-forth motion). I will never not have this in our house!" —Shelby Cipolla

Price: $23.99+ (available in four colors)

Learn more about different kinds of eye drops and what they can do at Cleveland Clinic. Note that eye drops can potentially mask symptoms of eye conditions, so you should talk to your eye doctor about what's right for you. And according to Mayo Clinic, you should avoid redness-reducing drops if you're looking for dry eye relief.

Promising review: "I have a big spot of blood vessels in the inner corner of my left eye. I use the expensive lubricant eye drops for moisture — I've used Visine, Clear Eyes, you name it. No eye drop has made my eyes look this great. Only Lumify! I was soo happy when I looked in the mirror and saw some beauty in my eyes instead of darkness and redness." —Angela Leonard

Promising review: "I am totally obsessed with these lights. I bought my first set and had them for about a week and couldn’t get over how lovely they were. So, I have now purchased two more sets. They light up my flowers and azalea bushes beautifully. They have a lovely orange glow like little fireflies." —A Lombardo

Price: $11.98 (available as a two-, four-, six-, eight-, or 10-pack)

Promising review: "I needed to upgrade my summer bag, and I am so glad I came across this one. I was really surprised at how large it was once it arrived. I got the large size, but I think it will work out perfectly. We tested it out on our picnic last weekend and it fit literally EVERYTHING. I was amazed. It fit TWO blankets on top, two lunches, two wine coolers, a wine bottle, a Yeti, snacks, and our books. At first, the price was a shock for me, but after seeing reviews and doing research, it is actually on the cheaper end, and for the quality, it is 100% worth it... Bonus points for the waterproof pocket for phones, keys, etc..." —Amazon Customer

Price: $59.99+ (available in three sizes and 21 colors)

It works by plugging into your car's round auxiliary power outlet, so you can literally use it anywhere (I have a similar one and absolutely love it)!

Promising review: "Words cannot describe how much I hate dealing with gas stations — whether it's getting gas, a car wash, or air for my tires, I really hate being at the gas station for any length of time. I live in the Pittsburgh area, so the up-and-down weather wreaks havoc on my tire pressure and I am TRULY GRATEFUL to be able to check my tire pressure and fill them up from the comfort of my home. This device couldn't be easier to use, and the fact that you can lock the nozzle in place and fill the air hands-free is wonderful. I never leave reviews, but chef's kiss on this product. Can't recommend enough." —Amazon Customer

Price: $28.87+ (available in two sizes and four colors)

Check out a TikTok of the plug-in fly trap in action. 

Promising review: "I can’t say enough wonderful things about these handy little bug catchers! They are simple to use, cheap to refill, and catch a ton of small bugs and flies. I have eight of them now, all around my house! It’s a little gross how many tiny flying insects are around…but it makes me feel a lot better now that I have these!" —Chris H. 

Price: $10.59+ (available in different pack sizes and refills)

I ADORE my Nex Playground. Not only is it great for toddlers (my nieces and nephews spend hours playing little educational games), but it's also so fun for adults. There's this Barbie Dance game that I am not ashamed to say I've spent literal hours playing with my husband, mother, and even my 3-year-old niece. 

It's crazy great at tracking people and movements. I only use the remote to turn on the game, but from there, all I need to do is use my hand to choose options and start the game. It doesn't matter how tall or tiny the players are, the Nex camera is able to track your movements accurately so adults and children can play alike.

Promising review: "First, as a UX and graphic designer, I love the design of everything about the Nex Playground. Opening it was easy, and setup was understandable and easy for anyone. The onboarding was fun and creative. I wish there were more games in the catalog, but the games available were definitely worth the buy. This is great for apartment living and during the cold winter when your toddlers can't go outside; it solves many sensory issues. Keeping my kids active and keeping me in shape at the same time with a variety of creative activity games is amazing, and it makes for great family game nights. If you are looking for something fun for your kids that keeps them active, this is the buy for you. As a father of two toddlers with autism, I can honestly say this brings me back to when I had an Xbox Connect as a kid and I am happy my kids will be able to experience what I experienced. Looks good with my other systems." —louis

Promising review: "After trying these, the pursuit for the most seamless underwear ended with these, and I came to write that on my way to buy a second pack. I worked at VS for three years, what seems like forever ago, and tried every “seamless” thong under the sun- at the store and otherwise- all of which rolled, were still visible, or the liner was not cotton, which just feels gross by the end of a workout or the end of the day. These aren’t that. They DISAPPEAR under all the workout attire. Anti-camel toe… HELLO?!?! They don’t hold sweat. They don’t roll. They don’t move around.  I just had my fourth baby and first C-section a couple of months back, and these are wide enough in the front. What is this panty sorcery? I threw out everything else from anywhere else. Follow the size guide. I washed in warm water upon arrival, even with the red in the pack, and none of the colors bled. I’ve washed 2x, and they look the same as when I first opened the box. They’re wildly comfortable for a thong from someone who despises every thong and even other styles of underwear I’ve ever tried. Picky lady problems, the list went on. Always something wrong with them on my body. NOT THESE! What!?!! I work out in these, run errands, housework ahhhh — they’re my new go-to that I ditched everything else. Comfy, sexy, stretchy, actually so seamless that they don’t exist under clothing, and a fantastic deal… It’s sorcery, I’m convinced." —Ebony

Price: $24.98 (available in women's sizes XS–4XL and nine color packs)

County Line Kitchen is a small business specializing in mason jar–style cold brew makers, pitchers, and accessories.

Promising review: "This has been a hit in my house. Makes the most delicious cold brew and is of great quality. Has saved a ton of money on going out and on pods I used to buy. I try to let it sit for 48 hours so I can dilute it with a little water to get it to last longer, and throw it in my dishwasher in between uses. Perfect!" —Jo

See what BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord has to say about these: TBH, I bought this ring after seeing it blow up on TikTok, and I love it. I wear it every single day, and I've gotten SO many compliments on it — friends are always stunned when I tell them how cheap it is! I've been wearing it for months now without any wear and tear that a quick cleaning won't fix. Pictures don't do it justice; it really does ✨gleam✨ like real jewels. (Bonus: I use this as a fake wedding ring when I travel to encourage humans to leave me alone, lolololol.) 

Price: $16.95+ (available in three colors, two widths, and sizes 5–10)

Promising review: "Our 3-year-old grandson loves these binoculars. He uses them on walks, looking out the window, and even playing inside. The strap goes around his neck and keeps them from falling. He has even dropped them when he is running around, and they have held up. Well-made and the bright colors are great for kids." —Jim R

Promising review: "Okay! So I was skeptical at first, but honestly, this stick is life-changing!!! In a matter of minutes, my skin felt hydrated and plumped. After an hour, still hydrated. No greasy after-feeling, very light, and you can feel your skin hydrated and absorbing. I love the fact that you can use it on your eyes, lips, and wrinkles!! Game changer for me, will def try the others!" —Kristy 

Price: $22.99+(available in seven formulas)
