Absolutely! So if your vibe is "yeah this is kinda weird but that makes me love it more," this post is for you.

Promising review: "I'm in the process of weaning off vaping and need something to fidget with while I'm working. I've purchased at least five different things now, as each one only seems to take my mind off cravings and keep my focus for less than a minute. First time I opened it, I didn't think it would hold focus as there's not a lot of different movements; however, every time it's in my hand, I've absentmindedly messed around with it for almost 30 minutes. Absolutely LOVE this thing and definitely recommend!" —Rose L

Promising review: "OMG!!!! This is sooooo fun!!! You put together absolutely everything yourself! From the flower petals to the electric! I can’t live without a project at all times, and I get bored with the basic craft junk, but this is challenging and satisfying and the most project fun I’ve had in a long time!!!! Everything you need is there, and the instructions are clear. Nothing is impossible or super hard, so don’t let the tiny details scare you. It is time-consuming, but to me, that means hours of entertainment!! I went with [this brand] because I was impressed by their reviews. I’ll stick to this brand and continue to buy these fantastic little projects!!! Definitely not for kids or people who lack patience. But for me, I’m so impressed and excited about it! What a fantastic buy!!!!" —sami j

Each mini jar contains 38 lotion bursts, and is a great size for stashing in your purse for moisture on the go. Just be mindful about keeping it somewhere warm, as the lotion bursts may melt and clump together.

Promising review: "OK, but I love these? They smell so good, and they're so convenient. I was worried they'd be like gummy or leave a weird skin or something, but that's not a problem at all! The whole cute little lotion pop rubs into the skin. I've found they're the perfect size to get my hands and up to my elbows when I'm hecka scaly, and all the way up to the shoulders when I'm less dry. And there's no residue! No greasy feeling! Just soft and hydrated and awesome. If they come out with more scents besides this and lavender, I'm buying them for sure. And less chance of spilling in a bag and ruining things!!" —AllyBelle

Promising review: "I was looking for weird, silly shirts for my 5-year-old son and found this one for myself instead. Love it. It probably brings me more joy than it should. It's soft, has an excellent cut, and the print still holds up after several washes. My 5-year-old loves it. I can tell my preteen loves it because it's one of the few pieces of clothing she doesn't try to get me to change out of—just a fun shirt." —LH

Promising review: "This is an awesome talking figure with KC's [the originator of the 'On Fire' comic strip] voice. The flames glow with a crackling fire sound.

This makes a great gift for someone who would appreciate a smile at the push of a button." —Doverduo

Promising review: "If you’re a protein drink fan, I’d highly encourage you to get this and add it to a vanilla one. So good. My son also had it without a protein shake, and he really likes it. Quick to throw in your gym or work bag and use when ready." —Liz Winn

Promising review: "Just got my SECOND Plufl because the first one was such a big hit in my house that I needed to get two just to keep everyone happy. I wanted to share some of my favorite things about the Plufl and why I think it is worth the price, especially compared to some of the cheaper items available. A few of my friends have bought knockoffs, so I have been able to compare mine with theirs, and after experiencing mine, most of them regret their purchase. The base: Most of the cheaper versions use a piece of foam that is so flimsy and cheap that I can basically feel the floor. The Plufl mattress is almost as supportive as my bed, which is great for when several people are using it and doesn’t make me feel achy. Fur: The Plufl fur is the SOFTEST thing ever. Literally. It is so soft, haha. I could lie in it all day and never overheat or feel stuffy like a lot of faux furs out there. Border: The border of the Plufl is by far my favorite part. It is so big and soft that I literally feel like I am in a cocoon when I am sleeping. A lot of other ones, the bolster is pretty flimsy or just made with scrap foam, while the Plufl is literally HUGE pillows, which I am in love with." —Jennifer Ford

Promising review: "I love this SO MUCH. I embrace my inner snail every time I wash my face. It's soft but not too fluffy and thick. It has a nice stretch, but it's also not too loose where I feel like it's falling. Buy some for you and your snail friends :)" —sam
