I’ve been a shopping editor for a little over three years now, and in that time, I’ve tested out a bunch of products. From the most comfortable couches and supportive mattresses to useful travel gear and the hottest beauty products, I’ve tried them all like it’s my job – I mean, it literally is. As a product junkie, I’m always on the hunt to find items that are actually worth it, whether it’s something that makes life easier, a product that works effectively or just makes me look and feel good. Ahead, I curated a list of my top seasonal must-haves, from beauty picks and wellness essentials to home finds and more.
As we enter the warmer weather and sunnier days, my social calendar is filled with travel plans and weddings galore. To that end, I have recommendations to help beat the heat, from a hydrating sunscreen that will keep you glowing to a leave-in conditioner that will diminish frizz and add shine. I included a few of my favorite products that I pack for every single trip or event, whether it’s a glowy complexion find that garners so many compliments or anti-bloat supplements that let me be a foodie without dealing with digestive issues.
I’m also making it a point to keep myself healthy and my space serene. I featured several items that are a core part of my morning or nighttime routine, including problem-solving skin-care products, an ice roller that eases facial tension, and a mat that helps ease my muscles and reduce back pain. I’m also prepping my home with items that are cozy and airy, including a lovely floral candle and a handcrafted embroidered floor pouf.
Ahead, you can shop all my favorite products for the season and see why each one is worth the buy.
