    31 Fun Things To Buy Yourself So Every Day Can Feel Like Your Birthday

    Because you should live every day like it's your day.

    1. An Eadem Cashmere Peel exfoliating toner that, mark my words, will be the Next Big Thing in the skincare world. This toner combines the milky texture of a Korean essence with the gentle exfoliation of a French toner, which means skin that's bright, glowing, and hydrated. It's a necessity for anyone who finds fun in unique additions to their skincare routine.

    2. A nut milk machine, which, with just a handful of nuts and water, can make any alternative milk! This is perfect if you constantly question buying pre-packaged cauliflower rice or zoodles when you can make them from scratch — and have fun doing it! Basically, you'll be able to make the real stuff at home without worrying about any additives!

    3. A Giddy Up vase so that you can add a bit of yee-haw to your floral arrangements. It's a cute way to spruce up your space, and saves you from boring clear vases!

    Promising review: "So cute! Love that it can be a decorative piece on its own you don't even need flowers." —Amanda C.

    Get it from Amazon or Ban.do for $26.95.

    4. claw clip with a unique shape that's both fun and functional. This clip's wide mouth grabs large amounts of hair, and its side-facing design will add way more aesthetic than a traditional back-facing clip.

    Promising review: "One of my best claws for my long curly hair. I own six of them in different colors. It's great that it lies flat so I don't bump so much into things, like other claws do: car seat, pillow when sleeping, my partner's arm while dancing. They give a very stable and lasting impression. The colors, as well as the shape, are gorgeous. Will probably come back for even more colors." —Free People Customer

    Get it from Free People for $28 (available in six colors).

    5. A copy of the book Burn After Writing so you can fully enjoy the cathartic feeling of getting it all out and then getting rid of it! You can jot down your deepest, darkest secrets or write those letters you'll never send, then dip into the fun of releasing those things!

    Promising review: "I first saw this book on TikTok and decided to look more into it. I purchased four total because I know some people holding onto things that are difficult to let go of. It’s a great way to look at things from a different perspective and truly hold yourself accountable to different things in your life. I love what it stands for, and I look forward to when I burn mine after I’m done. Self-love, self-care, and meditation for a better state of mind tomorrow is always the goal. I definitely recommend it to those susceptible to change and the willingness to try different things. You’re so much more than what’s been done to you, and someone’s inability to see your worth does not decrease your value. Choose you for a change." —Brent Helm

    Get it from Amazon for $7.32+ (available in two styles). 

    6. A Lego flower bouquet that's as fun to set up as it is to look at every day. You'll build your bouquet out of Lego pieces and then enjoy sprucing up your space with this unique floral arrangement.

    Check out this viral Lego flower bouquet in this TikTok from @shaelorend. The bouquet includes 15 stems with a mix of flower and leaf varieties, including roses, snapdragons, and poppies, and it uses elements made from plant-based plastic. 

    Promising review: "The bouquet looked absolutely stunning. The attention to detail was impressive, and the colors of the flowers were vibrant and eye-catching. The bouquet is not only aesthetically pleasing but also a lot of fun to put together. My son was able to complete it within an hour, which was fantastic. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, which made the entire experience enjoyable for him." —1teaspoon

    Get it from Amazon for $47.99.

    7. A gorgeous LED pearl shell light if you light up whenever "Part Of Your World" comes on. This can work in any quirky bedroom setup or add an ambient glow to your nautically-themed home.

    Promising review: "The picture doesn't do justice to the iridescent paint. I ordered the pink lamp, and it glimmers with hues of purple and green. Very pretty and mermaid-esque. I was worried about the size because of other reviews, but the size is perfect and matches the product description. Any bigger would be too gaudy for a dresser or nightstand, in my opinion. It gives off as much light as your standard hallway nightlight, so maybe too dim for kids who are scared of the dark, but perfect for teens or adults who can't fall asleep with bright lights left on. I love that it's cordless so I can place it anywhere for decoration, though I haven't tested the battery longevity yet. My lamp arrived packaged in styrofoam and had zero damage. I'm very pleased. It reminds me of Urban Outfitters' aesthetic and is perfect for a modern cabana decor theme." —Natalia C.

    Get it from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in pink or white). 

    8. And a Bedhead Deep Waver tool to bring the mermaid vibes to your hair. This is as easy to use as a flat iron and will create the beachiest waves you've seen in a minute.

    Promising reviews: "Found a bunch of TikToks with tips on how to use this particular crimper, and I love it. Heats up quickly and easy to use." —Katelin Schroeder

    "Where has this been all my life! I’m in love! I have long, fine hair that doesn’t hold curls very well. It tends to be very straight, and I always have it back in a pony or up in a messy bun because it has no volume. This wave iron gives it tons of body and volume. It’s like magic!" —Tonya Fleming

    Get it from Amazon for $26.95+ (available in two colors).

    9. An Elizavecca Milky Piggy carbonated bubble clay mask that people say is the most fun they've ever had. This mask bubbles up in just a few minutes to get your pores squeaky clean with kaolin clay and charcoal.

    Promising review: "I love this stuff! I received some for a gift and then purchased it for my daughter from Amazon. It feels like a clay mask going on, and then starts bubbling and turns to a thinner substance when it's done. I feel like it is very gentle on my face. My skin feels amazing after I wash it off. It feels like I used moisturizer, even though I did not." —LizaB

    Get it from Amazon for $9.88.

    10. A cult-favorite ~secret~ popcorn salt so you can have movie theater popcorn the next time you have a murder-mystery Netflix binge.

    Emma Lord/BuzzFeed, www.amazon.com

    BuzzFeed Shopping editor Emma Lord says: "Our family recently unearthed this because beloved To All The Boys I've Loved Before author Jenny Han mentioned that it was her secret to delicious popcorn, and it may have just wrecked me for other at-home popcorn for the rest of my life. It genuinely tastes just as salty and buttery and savory as fresh movie theater popcorn. I inhaled it so fast that every single one of my organs lit up in mild alarm."

    Promising review: "I am a person who will make myself sick eating buckets of popcorn (I have no self control). This has by far been my favorite 'TikTok made me buy' item. My at-home popcorn is now my favorite thing to make and I don't need to go the theater for popcorn. Very much worth the purchase and this will last me such a long time." —S Martinez

    Get it from Amazon for $9.40.

    11. A nifty self-stirring mug that will ensure your matcha latte never separates again! If you stretch out your caffeinated beverages for what can feel like hours, this mug will keep your drink frothy ’til the very last drop.

    Plus it comes with a handy travel lid!

    Promising review: "I'm a huge fan of coffee and I need it in daily life. Absolutely loving this new cup! Easy and quick to mix your coffee and milk, pretty handy! Cleaning the cup couldn't be easier with the self-stirring function, just put a little dab of soap, fill the mug halfway with water, turn it on, and let it do its own thing." —Lina 

    Get it from Amazon for $28.99 (available in five colors). 

    12. disco ball planter because you know what's more fun than a disco ball? A disco ball that can house your favorite plant bbs, that's what.

    It also comes with a wooden stand! Plus it's featured in this TikTok from @annamoraan.

    Lunar Sol is a woman-owned small business in Saint Paul, Minnesota, selling unique home decor. 

    Promising review: "This planter brings me so much joy every day! It is well-crafted and beautifully packaged. I appreciate the extra touches, like the fact it comes with a few extra mirrored tiles and that there are different ways to display it — it comes with a stand and nicely braided hanging rope. Every day my whole living room becomes a party :) Cannot recommend enough." —Phil

    Get it from Amazon for $29.97.

    13. A TikTok-famous Ninja ice cream maker that will make frozen treats so creamy you might wonder if you should open up your own shop. You can create homemade ice cream, sorbet, or frozen yogurt — all with ingredients you can actually pronounce — and even add fun bites like cereal, cookie dough, or chocolate chips! Tons of people love to use this for protein-packed ice cream or keto-friendly sweet treats!

    14. rechargeable night-light if you find fun in the little things — like adding cute touches to your bedside setup! This light also comes in a bunch of faces, so you can choose whichever silly expression speaks to your soul the most.

    Promising review: "Cutest little light I didn’t know I needed! The timer function is perfect for use as a night-light or as an indicator that it’s time for bed. Brightness is perfect, especially since you can choose to keep the front, back, or both lights on. Battery life is fantastic, I’ve only charged it once since getting it, and it has been used every night. Would definitely recommend." —Tiff164

    Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in four styles). 

    15. A bamboo sunbeam curtain that'll add light to any room in your home. This is a great way to add decor and separation to studio apartments (your living room will suddenly be split into two distinct spaces) or just work as a cool replacement for any typical door.

    Promising review: "Has decent coverage and is the cutest! Adds such a good vibe to my room, I love it so much." —Urban Outfitters Customer

    Get it from Urban Outfitters for $69

    16. A set of rainbow wine glasses because, hello! Nothing takes the stuffiness of sipping on a bougie wine than a colorful wine glass.

    Promising review: "Love these! I’ve run them through the dishwasher once so far and they held up fine. Glass is thin near the top which I love in a wineglass. I would recommend!" —Tricia

    Get a set of six from Amazon for $49.99.

    17. A foldable Magic Mushroom funnel that I am immediately adding to my cart. Ditch that stainless steel funnel you've had for ages and opt for this fun, forest-inspired one instead.

    See why one TikToker loves it here!

    To use it, just flip it inside out and stick the "stem" through your container's opening. Plus, it's dishwasher-safe!

    Promising review: "I am obsessed with this funnel!!! I juice a lot of citrus and juices for cocktails, and this little guy is the perfect size for bottling. It’s beyond cute and really great quality. I’m always hesitant about buying silicone items, as I don’t want them to be too thin. This is perfect! Sturdy and cute! Can’t get better than that! The perfect addition to any cottagecore kitchen!" —Abbey Klem

    Get it from Amazon for $17.95+ (available in two sizes). 

    18. A Shani Darden triple acid signature peel I love to use when I need an aesthetician-quality facial but don't have the time to head into the derma spa. Shani Darden has some cool clients, like January Jones, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Jessica Alba, and more. This peel is meant to mimic her in-office facials that exfoliate the skin for a smoother and clearer appearance! And there's no better time to exfoliate the skin than at night since your skin won't have to fight against lingering dead skin cells as it renews itself.

    19. A set of very chic simple syrup dispensers so your kitchen counter can be full of clean lines. This works great in any coffee setup to house different flavored syrups — but if you're more of a black coffee type of person, you can also store condiments, oil, or even mouthwash in here!

    20. A set of press-on nails, because birthday manicures are a thing, and these press-on nails come in a design that makes it look like you hit up your nail tech every week. (Minus the steep price tag of a birthday mani, of course.)

    Promising review: "I love them! They looked just like I came from the nail salon. I needed these to do a product photo shoot for my business! They were definitely convenient and worth the price." —william moore

    Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in 20 almond- or square-shaped designs).

    21. A set of cactus coasters so that you won't have to feel weird about asking your guests to use a coaster — they'll have so much fun disassembling this that you'll feel zero remorse about caring about water rings.

    This comes with a set of six coasters.

    Promising review: "I ended up getting this for myself and then as a gift for a friend! It is super cute and can act as a nice addition to the coffee table without looking gimmicky or tacky. Most of my guests don't realize it's a coasted until I tell them they can take it apart from the cactus. I love it and highly recommend!" —Sasha TS

    Get them from Amazon for $12.50+ (available in three colors).

    22. A polyresin jewelry stand if you need a place to store your rings and necklaces but don't want a typical T-bar stand.

    Promising review: "I love this product so much, I was actually a little surprised at how amazing the quality was when it arrived! The fingers are slightly different sizes so you can store different sizes of rings, and they're spaced perfectly so I could fit all of my bulkier rings as well. The product is a hard plastic type of a material, and doesn't feel like it could break easily. It's also nice and sturdy so you don't have to worry about your rings flying everywhere if you accidentally bump it. Definitely gonna buy more soon to fit my other rings. 💕 I highly recommend purchasing!!" —Kitty

    Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in seven styles).

    23. An easy-to-release tiny ice cube tray because the pinnacle of having fancy, reel-worthy iced coffee at home is using fancy ice cubes. If you aren't an avid coffee drinker, this works with anything you love to serve chilled on ice — especially when wow-ing guests!

    24. A heated eye massager with built-in speakers so that you can feel like you're getting a personalized facial massage after each day of typing. This is great if you often experience eye strain after staring at a screen for most of the day, and reviewers note that this provides sweet relief from headaches.

    Play the relaxing pre-recorded sounds that come with the device, *or* pair up your phone's playlists with its built-in Bluetooth!

    Promising review: "I love this device. I bought it to help feel relief when I have a headache. Although it doesn’t make my headaches go away, it does help feel some relief. It’s so relaxing. I use it before bed even if I dont have a headache. The music that it comes with is relaxing, like the music you hear while getting a massage. But it’s Bluetooth so you can play your own music. Love that it has different setting as far as pressure, massage modes and heat. Love this product." —Cameron Colebrook

    Get it from Amazon for $69.99.

    25. An LED light therapy mask, which aestheticians love to use when looking to neutralize their clients' complexions. OK, this mask may look scary, but it does wonders for clearing breakouts, diminishing fine lines, and even fighting inflammation! You can wear this after completing your nighttime skincare routine and while reading your pre-bed book.

    26. A moon lamp so you can fall asleep to the soft light of the full moon every night. This lamp has an array of color settings and lighting strengths to provide the perfect evening mood.

    27. A handy garlic chopper because gone are the days when you accidentally nick yourself while preparing your aromatics. Plus, it looks so cute in any kitchen setup!

    28. A set of under-eye gels if you're always on the hunt for things that can turn mundane tasks into a spa-like experience. These are great for helping smooth fine lines and diminish uneven tones, and you can easily wear them anytime, like when you're doing chores, watching TV, or doing your hair!

    29. A matcha starter set if you're always looking for new ways to get into tea! This set comes with everything from a sifter and a spoon to an electric frother and a matcha handbook, providing everything you need for your morning lattes.

    30. A bag of shower steamers because it's the easiest way to turn any shower into a full-on spa experience. This is perfect if your hectic lifestyle calls for using all the relaxing aromatherapy you can get — even if it's during the five minutes you have to shower.

    31. And a super neat Dali-inspired melting clock to tap into your love for both fine art and an analog way of life. This clock actually works and will add a fun, surrealist touch to your office.

    This requires an AA battery.

    Promising review: "This is an awesome clock for anyone who loves Dali and surrealist art. It is a great value for the money considering it is super cool and seems to be good quality. The whole clock is encased in a distorted plastic bubble which is very cool. The metallic part is also plastic which is fine. It ticks a bit loudly, but I personally like that, I'm just glad such a cool clock is also fully functional." —Zach

    Get it from Amazon for $11.96.
