Dear Lego tulips, thank you for thriving without water.

I know writing thank you notes can be a tedious task, but once you've tried the likes of Clinique's Almost Lipstick Tinted Lip Balm or Cushionaire's Luna sandals and squished a strawberry-shaped stress relief toy while admiring your lovely new outdoor string lights, I don't think you'll mind taking a sec to put some pen to paper and express your gratitude.

Promising review: "These are a perfect fit and feel like I am slipping my feet into butter. They are airy and cool. I tested them out and vacuumed and mopped the house in them. No sweaty feet, no slipping on the wet floor. They can go with anything: Dress them up, formal wear, throw 'em on with cut-off shorts and a tank top, a sundress, jeans and a tee, anything, even PJs. They are shoes to travel in, fly in, and go to Disneyland in. They cover my whole foot, and I don't have to worry about missing the pedicure lady. They don't pinch, they are well-made, no threads or seams pinch or are stiff or give me pressure spots to cause blisters or soreness after hours of wear — it's like going barefoot. Get a little dirt on them, and they just wipe right off. I will definitely be buying another pair from this company. For the price, they are worth it." —hotmdc

Get them from Amazon for $23.39+ (available in sizes 5–12 and in nine colors).

It can withstand temperatures up to 500 degrees F, fits on any size burner, and can even be tossed into the dishwasher! It also comes in a larger 6.75-quart size if you have more mouths to feed!

Promising review: "For the past four months, this has been my most-used pot in my kitchen, and it's been amazing cooking in it. 1) It performs as it should, with great heat retention, great coating, and good shape for stirring and moving things around. And 2) IT'S BEAUTIFUL. Love just leaving it out on top of the stove." —Arantxa Soto

Get it from Amazon for $165 (available in six colors).

Promising review: "This product is the real deal. The first time I used it, I noticed a definite softening of the lines on my neck. I have been using it for about a week and it has made a noticeable difference. No, the wrinkles are not completely gone but there is a real difference. I will also point out that I am almost 70, so I wasn't expecting a miracle, but this product has come pretty darn close. I recommend it." —rose b.

Promising review: "I absolutely love this Scrub Daddy Mickey and Minnie Mouse set! The design is adorable. It makes doing dishes a little more fun, and my kids even get excited to help because of the cute characters. Functionally, these sponges are amazing. They’re dual-sided, so I can scrub tough messes without scratching my dishes, and they hold up really well over time without falling apart. The odor-resistant material is a huge bonus. It stays fresh even after heavy use." —Aleena Kaltenberger

Promising reviews: "Worth the money!! So glad I bought this precious dress!! Looks like a much more expensive brand! Nice thick material, vibrant color, and a perfect fit! I wore this with my cowboy boots and got so many compliments! No stretch to the material, but it didn’t wrinkle." —Lisa Lambert

"Cute dress. Sleeves are structured and puffy. Perfect in the spring/summer but also great with high boots and a thin turtleneck in the fall... Very versatile."  —Shelly

Get it from Amazon for $29.95 (available in women's sizes S–L and nine colors).

Promising review: "Cute, quirky, and fun to use! Lemonade is quickly made. It looks so good, I leave it on the counter." —Stephaniep

I needed to discover what all the hype was about and tried this out on my own bathtub and, ya know what? It really does work well! It scrubbed a ton of dirt particles off my tub walls (yuck, but what do you expect when you bathe two kid-sized gremlins who play in sandboxes all afternoon in there?). I didn't use any additional cleaning products with it, just the formula that was built into the sponge! I did scrub kind of aggressively, and my hand hurt a bit from gripping so hard onto the handle, but my tub was shiny and clean when I was done!

Promising review: "I love this thing! The handle makes it so much easier to wash the walls in my shower. No more grinding my knuckles against the shower wall as I'm cleaning it. Just a handle and an easy glide. They are thick and sturdy, and the normal size of a Magic Eraser. I was hoping they would be thicker, but I'm okay with it. I'm definitely a fan and will buy it again!" —Dawne

Get a tool and two refills from Amazon for $12.94.

Promising review: "LOVE this bra so much! It is very, very soft, and the padding feels very natural. Bonus — it comes with a band extender, so if you're between sizes, I would recommend sizing down for the band, as you can use the extender if needed. The deep-V means it will work under lower-cut tops — which is what I was specifically looking for. I will definitely be buying more of this bra in other colors." —G.H. Cangahuala

Get it from Amazon for $18.96+ (available in sizes XS–3X, including plus sizes, and 27 colors).

There's a new foaming bath in this scent, too!

Promising review: "I've been a loyal customer to Dr. Teal's Epsom salt for years, but this one smells AMAZING!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "Lovely shape that can be easily elevated with a color-changing light bulb. If you've been wanting one, get it. It changed my life completely." —Allison

Promising review: "Do not hesitate to try this product if you have a hard skin problem on your feet. It takes a few days to see a difference, but now I can. Just like that, the skin on my pinky toe is no longer rock-solid. Bye bye, pain — and I am not joking." —Majda

The kit comes with 60 gel stamps and 5 different stamp designs. Each stamp can be flushed about 150 times.

Promising review: "I love the look of these and the smell. They were easy to apply to the toilet and lasted a long time. The box came with so many that I don’t need to buy more for a long time. 10/10 a bathroom must-have." —Jon Mark

The color-adaptive formula is designed so one of four shades will work on any skin tone. I've personally tested this out, and it has become an essential part of my daily routine. As a mom of two, I gotta just say I am TIRED. So tired that I'm not sure what my face even looks like without bags under my eyes — that is, unless I've got the Catrice "Instant Awake" on. A little really goes a long way and has great coverage. I wore it throughout my sister's wedding weekend in Aruba, and despite the heat, it stayed perfectly in place. An incredible product for an even more incredible price...10/10 from me. 

Promising review: "Took years off my eyes! This product is so reasonably priced. I came across a TikTok promoting this and decided to take a chance since the price was super reasonable. My eyes looked brighter in a good way, and the concealer worked so well that I felt I looked younger. I got compliments from friends asking what I did differently with my makeup. I recommend it." —Placeholder

Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in four shades). 

Promising review: "Building this set was relaxing and enjoyable. There is variation between the tulips, so that the build steps are not all the same. The set is packaged in five groupings, allowing you to build two or three tulips at a time without worrying about losing small parts if you're not planning to build the entire set in one evening. I built on my own, but I think this would be a great set to build with a friend or family member. The finished product is attractive and definitely worth displaying. The detail is lovely and the colors make you think of spring." —HuskyFan

Promising review: "These lights are incredibly stylish, and absolutely worth every penny. The lights really stand out, and I’ve gotten so many compliments already! They offer exceptional quality and ease of use, a rare combination. I'm so impressed. Highly recommend!" —Joanne Alladin

Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in six lengths).

Consider stocking up on a two-pack of refills for $19.99.

Promising review: "I recently added this plug to my outdoor string lights, and it’s such a simple but great upgrade. It was super easy to install, just plugged right into the lights. We love to host in the summer and frequently grill out and have fires, so having something attached right to the lights to help keep mosquitoes away without having to think about it has been great. Also, love the remote! I like that I can just turn it on when we actually need it and not have it running all the time or feel like it's being wasted when were not out there. Overall, it just makes hanging outside a lot more enjoyable without adding any extra effort." —Piper

Beach State is a small business specializing in premium, high-quality beach umbrellas. 

Check out a TikTok of the umbrella in action. 

Promising review: "This umbrella is exactly what my family was looking for as our everyday beach umbrella — large diameter, high quality, and cute retro design. It is a higher-end umbrella, but still slightly less expensive than the other big-name designer beach gear company that we were considering. It is easy to pop up and stays standing, and we’ve had many compliments from other people at the beach asking where we got it. The company's customer service was excellent. Would definitely recommend these umbrellas!" —Taryn

Pixie Dusted by Han is a small business based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, that sells Disney-inspired apparel and accessories.

Get it from Pixie Dusted by Han for $30 (available in women's sizes S–2X and 31 styles).

BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord has personally tested this baby out. She said:

"I was very adamant about not buying this for the longest time because I am stubborn about 'expensive' beauty products, but this is worth every penny and then some. It's so lightweight and layerable, it's foolproof to apply, and I have yet to wear a single outfit it doesn't complement??? I love watching it instantly elevate a casual look or add simple elegance to dressy ones. I wear it every day now, and after weeks of use, I've barely made a dent. Also, and maybe this is just me, but I tend to get pigment on my teeth with a lot of lip products, and I've simply never had an issue with this magic stick. 

Anyway, watch this TikTok of someone using it on their lips AND cheeks, because I did and oops, this lipstick FELL into my cart."

Get it from Amazon for $25 (available in three shades).

Promising review: "It’s been able to successfully thoroughly remove my makeup (sometimes wear waterproof mascara) and I just use a second cleanser (not oil based) to wash off the oil and double cleanse. The main thing I found is that it liquified the sebum on my face the first time I used it, and my skin has never felt so smooth. I’ve been dealing with a lot more texture lately from overproduction of sebum and lack of consistent hygiene and exfoliation, and this made it so much easier to take care of it!" —Lily

Get it from Amazon for $17.69 (also available in a mild version).

Promising review: "A cute, sturdy little bistro set at a great price. Open the package, and it's ready to go. The peacock blue is a beautiful color and a welcome addition for the garden." —Amazon Customer

"AMAZING!! Arrived well packaged and FULLY ASSEMBLED! So, so easy. And they look great — I am going for a Jardin du Luxembourg look for a Paris party, and they are perfect (the real ones are $1000 per chair!)." —Stephanie

Get it from Amazon for $84.99+ (available in 19 colors).

Promising review: "I used this product years ago and had the most amazing skin, but I assumed it was mostly genetics. Now that my skin is showing signs of aging, I decided to give it another try — and I’m so glad I did. My skin is transforming daily. They say your skin can rebuild itself, and it really does — especially when you remove the buildup of dead skin cells. I’ve been using it morning and night, and I genuinely look younger. My skin feels polished, my pores are noticeably smaller, and I need much less makeup. Such a fantastic product — highly recommend!" —Sweet Caroline 

BuzzFeed Deputy Editorial Director Elizabeth Lilly has and loves this chic tea kettle! Also, if you watch Summer House (and who isn't these days), you likely saw Carl using his classic MacKenzie-Childs checkered tea kettle to water plants — which is also a clever use *and* sort of proves he's not a mess...right?

Promising review: "This is a high-quality, well-constructed, last-a-lifetime, teakettle. I really wanted something joyful to look at each morning as I stumble bleary-eyed into the kitchen. This is a delight to walk by at any time of the day! Because it is heavier, it takes a minute longer to heat up, but it retains the heat longer if I need a refill. This is definitely the most expensive tea kettle I’ve ever bought, but for the joy it brings me whenever I look at it, and its sturdy construction, this will literally last me the rest of my life. I am more than satisfied with this purchase! This would make a great wedding or housewarming gift! 💝" —Deb C.

Get it from Amazon for $169.95 (available in five floral motifs and many more designs).

Promising review: "I bought these sandals before a three-week trip in Europe; I didn't want to pay for Birks but did want something in a similar style with good arch support. I was a little skeptical about the low price, but gave them a shot... and they were the MOST comfortable sandals I've ever owned. I walked over 120 miles in them during our trip in three weeks and never once had foot pain. They broke in so quickly and were very supportive from the get-go — and still are! Highly recommend." —Han Lin

Get them from Amazon for $34.99 (available in sizes 5–12, including wide sizes, and 21 styles).

Promising review: "Who doesn’t need a WD-40 pen?? Seriously, just pop this little guy open and fix your squeaky doors, tough zippers, and whatever else you can imagine. It works great for tough-to-reach spots where you don’t want a bunch of drippy stuff. Sure, it’s a lot more dollars per ounce than the ol’ trusty giant can as far as value for money, but the convenience is unmatched. The packaging and pen cap are durable and sturdy, and I cannot imagine them being damaged before the pen runs out. A GREAT gift for the fix-it human in your life!" —Khalie Lynch

Get a pack of three from Amazon for $12.49.

Promising review: "The patches work great, I could see a difference just after a few uses. They stick really well and stay on all night. They feel cool and soothing and I love how easy they are to use. Highly recommend!" —M. Brinson

Get a set of 12 from Amazon for $15.98.  

Promising review: "This is one of my absolute favorite nail polishes ever. The color is stunning, but subtle. It dries fast, but evenly. It lasts very well for a regular nail polish. I have bought this nail polish a couple of times because I’ve never found a color that matches my skin tone as well as this one does. I strongly recommend it." —Lisa

Promising review: "Be warned that these sit really low to the ground, but if that's not a dealbreaker for you, then they're great! They have great back support and are perfect for sitting cross-legged. I bought two and they really brighten up the room." —Leah

Get it from Ikea for $299 (available in two colors).

Moontale Store is a small business that sells taba squishy toys (ones that are made of sticky silicone are ultra-soft and slow-rising).

Check out a TikTok of the collagen sunscreen in action. 

Promising review: "I am a skincare snob. I spend way too much money on products. But over the last couple of years, I’ve been trying to find a new moisturizer with SPF that doesn’t bankrupt me. I need something that can help my dry skin, protect from the sun, and not irritate my sensitive skin. I was skeptical about this product, never having heard of the brand, but I gave it a try. I am SO thrilled with the results. This moisturizer is BETTER than the $55 alternative I have been using. It moisturizes like a dream. It doesn’t pill. And my sensitive skin loves it. I am THRILLED with my purchase and will definitely be back for more!" —R. Berry

Promising review: "I love this lotion. It makes my dry legs glow. Absorbs well and has a very light fresh scent that fades quickly. Not greasy, but effective on winter skin. Will buy again. Inexpensive given the size of the bottle." —Db01

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (also available in two-pack and seven other styles).

Promising review: "So SO CUUUTE! 10/10!! Good product and keeps my straw from getting bugs or germs on it! Plus, it’s really cute." —JennA

Get a set of four from Amazon for $5.99.  

Promising review: "I love this oil so much! The smell is divine and it leaves your skin feeling nourished, hydrated and moisturized without feeling greasy or oily. It dries up very quickly and nicely. My skin feels smooth and smells amazing all day." —Yaneisa

BuzzFeed editor Maitland Quitmeyer is a fan, "I bought a pack of these recently, and so far love dusting with them! All the dust sticks right on, so you don't end up breathing in all the dust you just tried removing. It's great for baseboards, too!"

Promising review: "I had low expectations for this. But I'm really happy to find that they do work really well for a much better price than the name brand. It's pretty much the same as the name-brand Damp Duster, except that the grooves are slightly wider. Dusted tops and fronts of my cabinets in about five minutes, but I'm most impressed with how well it removes pet hair from my couch and clothes, even better than sticky rollers. I have Pomeranians blowing out their winter undercoats, so it's my new fav thing." —onon

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in five color packs).

Promising review: "TikTok brought me here. I saw so many DIYs being done and all the rave about comfort. I must say, I'm even more impressed with this shoe in person. Buy them! Comparable style and fit to more high-end brands. As a sneaker woman, I'm happy to add these to my collection. I paired them with slouch socks." —anonymous

Get them from Walmart for $27 (available in sizes 6–12, including wide sizes, and 12 styles). 

BuzzFeed Deputy Editorial Director Elizabeth Lilly has and loves this dress! She said, "I bought it a few summers ago and have worn it at least a dozen times since."

Promising review: "This looked so cute on me! It fit perfectly! I just can’t wear a super padded bra but I don’t mind that. The material isn't bad either for what you pay." —JH

Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and 18 colors/patterns).

The Daily Stitch by Meg is a small business based in Houston, Texas, that sells an array of embroidered items.

Promising review: "I’m soooo obsessed with this luggage tag! The quality exceeded my expectations.10/10 purchase — you will not regret it!" —Kayla

Get it from The Daily Stitch by Meg for $23+ (available in four styles and with or without a phone number added to the back).

The set comes with the razor, two refills, and a holder.

Promising review: "I’m honestly impressed. The blade is super gentle and glides easily without tugging or irritation, even on sensitive skin. I love that it feels controlled and safe to use, especially in the shower. I didn’t experience any razor burn or redness, which is a huge win for me. It leaves skin smooth and comfortable, not dry or itchy. Definitely a great option if you’re looking for a razor made specifically for sensitive areas." —crystals462_1835
