It’s no secret that we’re obsessed with Amazon and its convenient, fast, and free Prime shipping. And the endless amount of online goods you can find.

However, there’s always that one purchase that sticks out among all the others, so our team is sharing a few of our favorite purchases from the past month.

*Note that the Amazon prices below are accurate at the time of posting.

Here are some of the best things to buy on Amazon, according to our team:

1. Madison got some of her makeup organized with these magnetic plates.

Mini Magnet Makeup Plates with different color eyeshadows

Madison said she bought quite a few of these magnetic makeup palettes to declutter her vanity space and organize all the colors. She said it was incredibly satisfying and, despite being listed as a “frequently returned” item (due to the palettes being small), she said the smaller size was a selling point for her. They even come with extra magnets included!


2. Madison is also in love with her new Caboodle.

Madison said she wasn’t prepared for just how much this Caboodle would hold! She said it was so fun to organize, and she loves how sturdy and portable it is. Overall, she rates this Amazon buy an easy 100 out of 10 and said it would make a great gift for the holidays. In fact, she said all her friends will be getting one this year, filled with their fave self-care/beauty goodies inside.


3. Madison treated herself to a fancy new Oral-B toothbrush during Prime Day.

Final cost just $ shipped!

Madison jumped on a major toothbrush upgrade during Prime Day for around $80 after tax. So far, she loves the free app you can connect to, which maps out your mouth and tells you where you need to brush more or less. It also lights up when you need to apply more or less pressure. If you’re considering an upgrade, she said you’ll love all the settings, lights, bells, and whistles on it.


4. Lina bought a lemon wreath that saved her almost $20.

After falling in love with a lemon wreath at Home Goods for $50, Lina said she was thrilled to find this gorgeous wreath on Amazon. It was almost $20 cheaper, and it’s just as gorgeous.


5. Lina hasn’t stopped using this pool float since she bought it.

Amber said her husband has very little hair and uses this skull shaver to keep it all smooth and even. She said it’s his second one, as the first one lasted a couple of years with regular use.


9. Amber bought this lotion for her dad, who has arthritis.

10. I replaced my broken string lights with a new set that’s also dimmable.

Brightever 200FT Outdoor String Lights$64.99 (reg. $79.99)

After our string lights got caught on a ladder and ripped, we were quick to replace them in our backyard. I love the look of string lights, and these ones are lightweight and super easy to install. They’re also dimmable, and I chose this 200-foot strand over many others because it’s in one consecutive strand, so we could have the lights taught and straight across our yard rather than being droopy.
