I'm Super Bougie & These 55 Things Under $25 Are Effing Amazing

This aesthetic wide-mouth water bottle is made of lightweight glass, covered in soft silicone (making it nonslip), and recommended by thousands (including Elite Daily editor Kate Miller). Fill the 20-ounce container through the wide opening and suddenly staying hydrated won’t seem like such a mission. Choose from a few shades in the listing.

This pill box that Miller recommends will keep you organized without looking out of place on your desk or end table. From its large vanity mirror to its soft matte finish, it has a trendy design that you won’t mind pulling out when needed. And if you’re going away for a day or two, you can pop out the tabs that are needed (instead of bringing the entire case along).

Since SPF should be applied every day, Miller recommends this lightweight sunscreen lotion that has earned an impressive 4.6-star overall rating on Amazon. You’ll hardly feel it on your skin as it resists water and sweat — and blocks out both UVA and UVB rays, of course. It does all this without leaving behind a white cast.

Elite Daily editor Cassandra Seale considers this kimono robe to be “elevated” which is why it’s just the thing to make you feel fabulous — even when just lounging at home. It’s made of satin that comes in a ton of vibrant colors to make your daily routine a bit more fun. The side slits make it easy to walk in and the waist belt can be removed for a more free-flowing piece.

This liquid lipstick stands out because of its impressive formula that can last up to eight hours. And in addition to being kiss-proof, it’s made with jojoba oil and vitamin E to hydrate the lips while leaving a matte finish. Even better, you get two different colors in one pack. “These shades make even the schlubbiest outfit look so polished,” says Seale.

If you’re looking for “another easy item for instant elegance,” Seale recommends this pashmina shawl that feels like cashmere. It can be thrown over your shoulders to elevate any outfit and since it’s plenty long (78.7 inches), it can be worn in various ways. Choose from lots of shades in the listing.

Elite Daily editor Lauren Beach recommends this three-pack of LED puck lights for illuminating dark spots in your home. They can be installed using the adhesive patches that come included and will run for 100 hours before needing their batteries changed (they also come with screws). Your cabinets and closets will be much easier to navigate with their warm glow.

If you’re looking for something that can be used for everything from work to travel to a trip to the grocery store, Beach suggests this vegan leather tote bag.

Plus, it has a roomy 23-liter capacity with a few open inner pockets and one zippered pocket to secure small belongings. Choose from six colors in the listing.

To add a luxurious touch to your day, Beach suggests grabbing these faux fur slippers. Not only are they unbelievably soft but they’re plush thanks to the memory foam insole. And since they have a waterproof TPR sole, you won’t need to take them off when stepping out to grab the mail or walk your dog. They’re available in some solids and a few prints in the listing.

“It's a small thing, but nice-looking sticky notes just do a little something to upgrade your day,” says Elite Daily editor Anna Anderson. Since this pack comes in rich yet vintage-inspired colors, they definitely fall into that category. Each pad has 50 sheets, meaning you’ll have 600 sticky notes in total.

When it comes to reducing waste, these toothpaste squeezers will come in clutch since they’ll roll out every last drop of product. Anderson and thousands of happy reviewers recommend grabbing them. The pair of squeezers are made of stainless steel and they can be used in the kitchen as well for tubes of tomato paste and more.

Beeswax, coconut oil, and vitamin E are just some of the nourishing ingredients that make up this jumbo lip balm. Put them all together and you get this soothing stick that delivers long-lasting moisture and creates a protective barrier against environmental conditions. “These last forever and the flavors are so inventive,” says Anderson.

This faucet mat is so chic that it looks like a piece of decor — but it actually serves a greater purpose. Elite Daily editor Allison Scholtz recommends the diatomaceous earth stone tray for catching drips around your sink. It’s extremely absorbent and will dry quickly so that the space always looks clean.

Anderson describes this magnetic spice rack as “sleek and easy extra storage for the kitchen.” Its solid steel construction enables it to support over three pounds, making it small but mighty. She adds, “Everything from this brand looks minimalist and elevated.”

These foldable wall hooks that Scholtz suggests are there when you need them and out of the way when you don’t. They’re made of sturdy metal that allows each of the four in this pack to hold up to 55 pounds (they install using the included screws). Choose from four finishes in the listing.

Scholtz says, “I possibly recommend this cold brew maker way too often (to everyone I know), but it makes really good cold brew and looks so chic at the same time.” And thanks to its sleek design, it’s also super easy to store in the fridge without sacrificing too much space.

Beach says, “This lip treatment is so moisturizing and has a great (but light) scent.” The treatment comes in several scents and shades in the listing (including a clear option). The formula is rich in fatty acids and vitamins, and is made with Hawaiian kukui nut oil.

Everything from your collection of rubber bands to your deodorant will have a proper home in these drawer organizers. “I am obsessed with these.

They come in a pack of 20 that includes various sizes and smaller pieces nest easily in the larger ones to further organize.

If you’re looking to add some style to your home, Beach suggests this gold and glass vase that can dress up any room. The glass component is separate, so the gold vase can hold a candle when you don’t have fresh flowers around the house.

Made of silky-smooth nylon and spandex, this tank top will feel like a second skin so that you’re comfortable no matter where the day takes you. And while Beach’s suggestion is trendy, it’s also timeless with a polished design that you’ll never get sick of wearing. It’s available in 15 shades in the listing.

Beach says that these golden under-eye masks with more than 25,000 five-star reviews are “so soothing.” Putting them on for as little as 20 minutes can reduce swelling and redness, smoothing irritated skin. Beach suggests storing them in the fridge for an extra boost.

This pressed powder lets you stick to your budget and still get the quality that you’re looking for. “I've experimented with brands all across the price spectrum — this one is affordable with luxuriously soft, smooth, buildable coverage,” says Seale. It’s also safe for sensitive skin, and is made with hyaluronic acid, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

For a clutter-free and high-end look, Beach suggests this outlet concealer.

They come with a remote that allows you to put them on a timer, adjust the flickering mode, or change the brightness.

Beach recommends this satin shirt that adds a touch of polish to any bottoms you pair it with. Add a blazer or cardigan for cold days and wear it alone on warmer ones. It features delicate ruffles along the neckline and flutter sleeves. Choose from a wide range of jewel tones, neutrals, and pastels in the listing.

Beach loves these freezer wine cups that will keep wine or any other beverage icy-cold without diluting it.

The silicone strip around the side keeps your hands warm and makes it easy to grip.

Disposable face towels are a huge help when trying to keep your skin free of bacteria. Beach recommends this pack that’s made of bio-based fibers that are completely compostable.

Beach considers it a luxury “to be able to see everything [in her deep cabinets] clearly at the press of a button.” You can place this self-adhesive LED light strip under or inside your cabinets — or around your headboard or along your book shelves. It’s 3 feet long, powered by batteries, and controlled by one simple button.

Seale labels this paring knife as “one of the cheapest yet favorite knives in my kitchen.” The Japanese stainless steel blade has a nonstick coating and a lightweight feel that makes it easy to chop, slice, and dice. It comes with a cover for safety.

Who would’ve thought that an act as simple as slipping on these heel socks can get rid of stubborn calluses? Beach recommends this pair that are infused with jojoba oil, vitamin E, and even olive oil. Your order comes with two pairs and they also come in an extra-wide version in the listing.

Made with hyaluronic acid, sunflower seed oil, aloe vera, and an anti-sebum complex, this two-piece face mask, recommended by Elite Daily editor Adeline Duff, has earned a 4.5-star overall rating on Amazon. Just 10 minutes will give you a brighter complexion and refined pores, as it calms any irritation using its hydrogel technology.

Duff also suggests grabbing this body oil that moisturizes without being too heavy. Instead of leaving behind residue, it absorbs into the skin and leaves a gorgeous glow. It smells like rose, jasmine, and sandalwood.

A bathroom sink cover may sound strange but after trying it out, you won’t be able to live without this genius invention recommended by Beach. By setting it down, you’ll be creating more usable counter space for getting ready. And since it’s grooved and made of silicone, it will keep anything you place on it from rolling around. It’s even heat resistant for hot hair-styling tools. It comes in a few colors in the listing.

Made out of flexible and and nonslip silicone, these nipple covers are sure to keep you covered — even when wearing a backless dress or low-cut top. Their texture won’t reflect light either. Beach says, “These really do stay put and disappear under clothing.”

If the thousands of rave reviews aren’t enough to convince you that these stud earrings are worth your money, Elite Daily editor Mallory Moreno suggests you take a closer look. She says, “These earrings look so much more expensive than they are. I've had them longer than a year now and they're still in a great shape.” The pair is made of sterling silver and plated in 18-karat gold. They come in four finishes and lots of gem sizes in the listing.

If you’ve overlooked using a bed skirt, Beach recommends this one. It comes in a ton of great neutrals that will blend into the rest of your room while hiding any extra shoes that you may have hidden underneath. And it also adds softness to your space since it’s made out of microfiber.

Beach recommends this serving tray with three generously-sized bowls. It can be used for dips, chips, nuts, and any other small bites that your guests might be craving. The ceramic bowls can be removed from the powder-coated metal tray for cleaning.

Once you’ve poured your favorite bottle through this wine aerator, you’ll never want to go back to going without it. Beach suggests this small yet genius tool that injects oxygen into each glass to enhance flavor so you can taste all the underlying notes.

Beach says, “Do I have to take my mug or tumbler everywhere I go? Not really, but I just love how this car cup holder expander gives me the option.” It not only gives you more room to work with but it also reduces rattling since it has thick rubber pads at its base. It has a cutout to accomodate mug handles as well.
