The leaves are about to drop, and so will your jaw when you see how affordable these Lululemon leggings lookalikes and this Anthropologie-inspired blanket are.

As a Senior Shopping Writer at BuzzFeed, I specialize in a broad range of topics, including beauty, cleaning, fashion, personal care, home, fitness, and my beloved “TikTok made me buy it.” My work has been featured across lifestyle and writing publications during my ten years in the digital media space, including Bustle, HuffPost, HelloGiggles, and The Washington Post.

I *jumped* on this because I'm a huge fan of Clinique's Black Honey line — I'm wearing the Mauve Mentality shade that's meant to be an alternative to the $25 Nude Honey above! I love the consistency of this and the lightweight, buildable color. It's the perfect "keep this by the door/in a purse" lip tint that goes well with pretty much any outfit, since it's in that genre of "no makeup makeup." My only complaint is that you have to be careful not to twist it too high up, since the formula is kind of melty and makes it hard to twist back down. But otherwise this is an EXCELLENT everyday lippie to have in your arsenal!! 

Promising review: "Love these. Sheer, pigmented, but buildable, and don't feel heavy or thick or sticky like Wet 'N Wild lip oils do. I love that it's available in a stick option." —catina m. claytor

I bought these on Prime Day, which is the only day I will buy leggings because I hate wearing leggings with a burning passion. My "I'm not like other girls" bit is that, for some reason, I am always more comfortable in jeans than leggings. BUT NOT THESE!!! They slide on. The fabric is so lightweight and breathable that it feels like a whisper. The band is so deceptively comfortable that sometimes I'm like, "Am I still wearing them??" I use them to run outdoors because that is the only circumstance I'll wear leggings, and I'm happy to report that after several washes, they are durable and compressive enough to withstand workouts. They would be excellent for lounging if I weren't wired in this odd anti-legging way. I have already bought two more pairs and made my friends buy them, too. 

Promising review: "Super comfy. I usually don’t write reviews, but I tried these first before buying Lulu, and these are the most comfortable leggings for everyday and even for workouts. Highly recommended!" —Criselle Johnson

Get them from Amazon for $32 (available in women's sizes XXS–XXL, two inseams, and 21 styles). 

I bought this after being peer-pressured by all the lovely reviews, and I'm happy to report it lives up to the hype. The scent is lovely — it has depth with a hint of floral, but it's light and not at all overpowering. My favorite thing about it is how easily it pairs other scents, because I am a body mist gremlin who swaps out her scents every day. The lather is also deeply satisfying and I feel quite refreshed and squeaky clean without ever feeling dry. 

Promising review: "Cremo's body wash is nothing short of exceptional. If you’re a fan of luxurious fragrances, this product will quickly become your new favorite. It boasts an incredible scent that perfectly mimics Baccarat Rouge 540 — a fragrance renowned for its sophisticated and captivating aroma. What sets this body wash apart is not just its stunning scent but also its longevity. The fragrance lingers beautifully throughout the day, ensuring you stay enveloped in that luxurious aroma long after your shower." —Ralph D. Thompson II

Promising review: "My new must-have! My number one go-to for healing lips was Carmex. This beat it. I love the consistency (very creamy/smooth), it’s not heavily flavored or goopy, and it obviously smells amazing. It isn’t overbearing and also doesn’t keep coating your mouth like the Eos stick balms (still great, but more wax)." —Breanah Shirazi

Lulu Candles is a US-based small business that specializes in scented candles and perfumes. 

Check out a TikTok of the Lulu Candle in action. 

Promising review: "This is such a great candle that fills the room quickly with a really nice, strong smell that is soothing and relaxing. I was looking for a less expensive Le Labo Santal 33 scent candle, and this one is very, very close! It's a bit stronger, but I love it! The shipment arrived fast, and I just love how fast it fills up the room without being lit for so long!" —Cristina Bertolotto

Get it from Amazon for $16.95+ (available in three sizes, in gift box options, in packs of two, and in a variety of scents). 

Promising review: "Great hair dryer. I have wavy fine low porosity hair that has been colored and Graves disease, which causes issues with hair. This dryer is fast, has great cooling air, and helps with frizz." —reader985

Get it from Amazon for $74.99 (available in three colors). 

Promising review: "My favorite blanket purchase ever! You know when you purchase a blanket that is so soft and thick like fur. It keeps you very warm, and then you get something on it and have to wash and dry it for the first time. This is the true test, will it come out the same? I am very happy to share it did!! It looks and feels exactly the same. Great purchase!" —Linz

Get it from Amazon for $35.98+ (available in 11 colors and three sizes). 

Promising review: "More beautiful than the photos show, if that's possible. I appreciate that it's reversible, as the two distinct colors make it seem like a totally different blanket. It's well constructed, soft, and warm enough to use to sleep with." —Fair Mona

Get it from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in five sizes and 20 styles). 

Promising review: "This smells heavenly!! I wore it today with the Cheirosa 62, and it smells delicious! I already purchased a second bottle for me and one for my daughter because I know it's going viral, and I don't want to run out! It's already hard to find where I am. To me, this is even better than the Vanilla Cashmere, and that's been my absolute favorite so far." —Heather Mg 

(It goes without saying that you don't need to lay your edges if you don't want to, but this is a handy option if you do.) 

Promising review: "Love this. It doesn’t leave a white cast after it dries and keeps my flyaways tamed. I like the longer wand. No clumps when you take it out of the tube. Easy to apply to your hair. Good value, especially for the brand. I like the rounded slim tube instead of the hard plastic that I’ve gotten before. Functions as it should without the mess." —Myan Espino

Promising review: "This is the best knock-off Scrub Daddy/Mommy. It cleans just like the original, doesn't scratch your pans, and gets all the grease and baked-on dirt that’s left on your plates, pots, or pans. Works well and activates to soft when under hot water or hard when under cold water. Easy to use and doesn’t smell. Rinses the food or grease off with no problem. Hopefully, they do not go up in price. I received three cute smiley face sponges that have eyebrows, so they would definitely fit on your Scrub Daddy suction cup if you have one. This is now my go-to sponge for dishes, bathroom cleaning, and my baseboards." —Deeva

Check out a TikTok of the E.l.f. tubing mascara in action. 

I am not a new human to the tubing mascara game, and in fact readily spent $26 on the famous OG blend from Blinc every time it needed replacing. I didn't even love it for the length half as much as the fact that tubing mascara like this genuinely never smudges, but can I just say — regardless of price, the E.l.f. tubing mascara formula blows all the others I've tried out of the water. It gives me way more length and volume than other brands, slides on so much more easily, stays put ALL day, and never, ever smudges. My favorite part, though, is how gently and easily it comes off with soap and water. In the past, other mascara removals have felt rough on my lashes, but this comes off so fast that I'm like ??? was I even wearing mascara a minute ago?? Anyway, I hesitate even writing this review because I want to gatekeep the hell out of this before it sells out, but the world needed to know. I'm a big fan of the brown shade (which is what I'm wearing above!), but it also comes in black and soft black. 

Get it from Amazon for $7 (available in three shades). 

Promising review: "This oil smells AMAZING. I got one as a gift, and once I smelled it, I bought three more myself. It lasts throughout the whole day, and I get lots of compliments on it. I love how compact it is, you can put it in your purse or luggage very easily. It is warm and very vanilla-y. This is definitely a 10/10." —Ari R. 

Promising review: "I have a real diamond tennis bracelet that I don’t always like to travel with or wear in the water. This is the perfect swap! The quality for the price is amazing, and it shines like it’s real. I’ve worn it all summer in the pool, and it hasn’t tarnished at all." —Sarah Reeves

For what it's worth, Pavoi — the company behind this piece — has gone TikTok viral time and time again for its classic, modern, and expensive-looking pieces. I personally own almost all my "daily wear" jewelry from Pavoi and swear by it (particularly this gold-plated ring and these chunky gold-plated earrings!). Everything is so easy to accessorize and makes my outfits look and feel so much more put together, and the pieces are so durable that they're easily worth twice what I paid. Check out the rest of Pavoi's line of jewelry for more options, including earrings, bracelets, and anklets!

Maple Holistics is a small business that specializes in beauty products with all-natural ingredients. Check out a TikTok of the biotin shampoo in action. 

Promising review: "My hair was starting to thin rapidly in my mid-20s. Thankfully, I caught it early. I started using this shampoo regularly, and haven’t done any other treatments. The thinning immediately slowed and eventually stopped. It’s six years later, and I still have a great, full head of hair. Judging by my family history, I should be totally bald by now, and this product is the only thing I've used. I credit this stuff with saving my hair! What a miracle!" —Amazon Customer

Psst — reviewers mention this is most effective when paired with a scalp massager to work it into their roots! 

Promising review: "It’s much more spacious than it looks. It’s very sleek and stylish. I use it as my work bag and find that it looks professional and has enough space for all of my stuff. I carry a laptop, a pencil case, two books, a makeup bag, a water bottle, a wallet, lotion, a phone, and laptop charger, and other small miscellaneous objects. Still plenty of space. And when you carry it, it doesn’t feel bulky or cumbersome." —Su

The color-adaptive formula is designed so one of four shades will work on any skin tone. 

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." —Monica T.

Promising review: "The best work pants. I wish I had discovered these a year ago!! My coworkers keep asking me about these! So easy to put on, they are breathable and easy to spot clean during a shift! Thick enough to look professional, thin enough to get through summer shifts!!" —K Chelle

"Love these! Similar to the Halara brand. Fit is excellent, chose my normal size, would like a petite because they're a bit long, BUT I wear them with heels, so it works. Totally wrinkle-resistant. Will buy more." —Kristal Nuzum

Get them from Amazon for $16.98 (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and eight colors).

Promising review: "This is a must! Feels like a cloud and way better than a hand towel to dry your face, the perfect self-care product." —Jennifer

Promising review: "This is a quality product in my opinion. Equal to Moleskine sketchbooks at half the price. I don't often write reviews, but I have purchased and used a few of these, filled them up, carried them about, and found them quite durable." —E. D. Scoville 

Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in 26 colors with blank, lined, dotted, or grid pages). 

Promising review: "Modern long-sleeve tee. It could also act like a thin sweatshirt, too! Fit just like expected. So comfortable and soft. Not too baggy, just right. True to size. Looks nice on. Great with jeans or leggings. Highly recommend." —Laurel824 

Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in women's sizes 3XS–4XL and 35 styles) 

Promising review: "Tired of traditional 'cool' pillows that feel like a brick? Tired of soft pillows that wake you up in sweat? Look no more! I am a very hot-natured, hot-sleeping person. I can not sleep without a fan on high blowing on me. This pillow is legitimately cool and comfortable. Somehow soft but still supportive. Very, very happy with my purchase and the price!" —Robert

Get it from Amazon for $32.99 (available in two styles and Standard, Queen, and King sizes). 

Here's what BuzzFeeder Elizabeth Lilly has to say about them: "I own several sets of these and even pack them when I travel because I never want to sleep on a cotton pillowcase again after getting used to these beauts." 

Promising review: "My hair has never been better! I got this because of TikTok and it has done wonders for my hair. My hair isn’t frizzy or dull-looking when I get up in the morning." —Aaron Key

"These are really nice — perfect price point too. There's no difference between these and the same pillowcases from Kitsch at three times the price." —Keri

Get a set of two from Amazon for $11.99 (available in 22 colors and four sizes).

Promising review: "Bought these to replace some knockoff Doc Martens I had before, because they are versatile with many outfits — especially this past fall and winter. So far these have been comfortable, great during winter at work and at home, and while a little stiff at first they do get some flexibility over time. They are not a soft, pliable fake leather. It’s pretty straight. So if that’s what you’re looking for these are great!" —Valerie Mills

Promising review: "Crate & Barrel look for less. These look and feel very high end — almost like a thin crystal." —Lauren

Get a set of two from Amazon for $13.95+ (available in three styles). 

Promising review: "They work great, look cute, and make me feel pretty. I’ve been buying these for over a year now, and I’m always happy to recommend the brand whenever people ask about the little stars on my face. I like the different colors. I get to match them to my outfits. Other brands usually charge an absurd amount for a few puny stickers that barely do anything, but these patches actually pull gunk out and leave the blemish looking much better afterward. It’s kinda gross, but super satisfying. Totally worth the money, and it’s more than earned my praise." —Fredric M.

iJoy is a small business that specializes in headphones and tech accessories. 

I own a pair of these, and because I'm vain as heck and need to own all things pink, but I was decently surprised by how well they muffle noise! I feel like these are ideal for people who still want to hear some of the world around them (read: parents, people working in open offices), but still want to listen to their tunes comfortably. The charge on these goes for at least four hours (I haven't tried it beyond that yet), and the Bluetooth connects to my devices super easily. Excellent pair of headphones for the price point. 

Promising review: "These headphones surprised me. I thought they were not going to be as great because of how cheap they are, but the bass is amazing! The noise cancellation is so good that I can’t hear anything. The volume is loud and sound quality is a win, and just how I like it. Very snug and comfy, recommend! Thanks TikTok, lol :)." —Chevelle Revero

Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in five colors). 

Promising review: "I recently got this and it's become a new favorite in my wardrobe. The color is rich and versatile, while still being neutral. It is perfect for pairing with jeans or layering under a jacket. The waffle texture adds a cozy feel without being too heavy, making it ideal for cooler days. The quality is very nice, it feels expensive and is on the 'heavier' side. It's also super comfortable and fits just right—definitely a go-to piece for casual outings or lounging around." —The Duchess Corgi

Get it from Amazon for $26.99 (available in women's sizes XS–XL and seven colors). 

I own both versions of these pants — the $118 Anthro ones and the Amazon ones — in different colors. I really only got the Amazon ones because the color I want from Anthro is backordered into oblivion, and I could not wait any longer, but I'm so glad I did! These may not have the lightweight feel of the Anthro ones, but I think the more structured denim will be warmer for fall. More importantly, they are still ridiculously comfortable, and the barrel cut is SO adorable and fun to pair with shirts and sweaters. I found these to be true to size. I highly recommend these to anyone who wants a comfortable, cute, affordable pair of jeans for fall! 

Get it from Amazon for $49.99+ (available in sizes 2–16 and in three washes). 

Promising review: "These are awesome slippers! I just ordered my second pair in the more chestnut brown color, but my first pair was in apricot. Both pairs arrived true to color and true to size. They are very comfy, and you can definitely feel the memory foam insoles. As for durability, these slippers feel like they are built to last!" —Coral

Sayso is a woman-owned small business that specializes in the first-ever cocktail teabag, perfect for cocktails *and* mocktails. 

Promising review: "I was a bit skeptical when I purchased, but these are actually fantastic. The taste is great, and the bags make it incredibly easy to mix up what would otherwise be complex cocktails quickly and easily. I've had the spicy marg, espresso martini, and old-fashioned versions, and while they aren't exactly the same as the original, they are wonderful for making yourself a cocktail at home. Highly recommend." —Meredith 

Get a pack of eight from Amazon for $16.99 (available in four other cocktail styles and larger packs). 

Promising review: "The sweater is extremely comfortable and high quality, and the color selections were awesome. I chose the cognac color, which is kind of a taupe-ish brownish color. Bought it to match some khaki boots, and the match was terrific. The pockets are nice. The sweater is roomy. The sleeves are a good length. The thickness is perfect for warmth without being overly bulky. I really like this sweater and will order more colors." —Alana Mohacsi

Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in women's sizes XS–XL and 29 styles). 

These are safe for the oven, microwave, and dishwasher!
