32 Little Indulgences You Can Enjoy For Under $10Sometimes you just need to indulge in some movie theater popcorn seasoning and call it a day.
1. A container of Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cinnadust because cinnamon toast is THE ultimate snack and you can feel free to fight me on it.Â
Check out a TikTok of the Cinnadust in action.Â
Promising review: “This is 10 out of 10, would order again. Try it on yogurt, ice cream, toast, carrots, and amazingly I saw a TikTok challenge with it on hard-boiled eggs. It is stupendous!!!” âThatGuy
Get it from Amazon for $3.49.Â
2. A set of Globbles that’ll be a nice get-away-from-the-computer exercise in getting out a bit of stress and frustration. They’re squishy and can stick to all kinds of surfaces *without* leaving behind a mess. Def a one-up from the stress-relieving slime of yore.
Check out a TikTok of the Globbles in action.Â
Promising review: “Bought a six-pack for my neurodivergent family. We are all either ADHD or autistic. I struggle with compulsive hair pulling and bought these to help keep my hands busy. They are the perfect size, more satisfying than a stress ball, clean easily, fun to hurl at the wall or ceiling, and so far have lasted very well. I did test the durability of one and did break one when I pulled it as hard as I could âthe inside looks something like shaving cream and didnât smell or anything. But if you have a kid who is an aggressive chewer, perhaps keep an eye on them.” âAmazon Customer
Get a set of six from Amazon for $10.69.Â
3. Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza, to give a whirl since your NSFW Cards Against Humanity deck is a bit tired by now. And with this, it’s safe for *all* ages.Amazon
Recommended for ages 8+. As soon as there is a match between a card and a spoken word, race against each other to slap your hand on the central pile of cards. The last one to do so must take them all. Be quick to be the first to get rid of all your cards. But watch out! Your mind will play tricks on you.
Promising review:Â “This game is more mind bending than you think. Donât let the cuteness fool you. This game is by far the most competitive and fun party game to play with friends!! The special cards mess with your mind!
“Pros: hours of fun, cute drawing style, unique packaging, easy to play
“Cons: may result in red hands, strain of voice from intense playing” âHani
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
4. A wine coloring book for those “we have wine at home” pep talks you give yourself after some good times at the local wine bar have been a little *too* indulgent.Â
Amazon
Bonus: it comes with colored pencils included!Â
Promising review: “Very cute, sayings were accurate and funny. Pictures provided a lot of variety from simple to more complex, and provide plenty of stress relief while watching a movie and coloring and drinking wine of course.” âTegyn Dustin
Get it from Amazon for $12.95.Â
5. A gentle bubbly clay mask can help remove blackheads and minimize the appearance of pores…and you’ll have a blast using it. Check out a TikTok of the foaming mask in action.
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. I hear that these masks are very popular in Japan.” âL. Shea
Get it from Amazon for $9.88Â (available in packs of one, two, and three).
6. A cult-favorite ~secret~ popcorn salt if you often complain about how microwave popcorn never stacks up to the movie-theater variety. (I’ve used this stuff and it’s GREAT.)
I invested in one of these delicious cartons after reading my colleague Emma Lord rave about it. It’s super salty, super buttery, and like, probably something you shouldn’t eat every day. But boy is it a total TREAT.Â
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.” âS Martinez
Get it from Amazon for $9.45.
7. A set of four claw clips to make getting your dirty hair outta your face THAT much easier.Â
Reviewers with all different hair types (curly, straight, thin, thick, etc.) love these clips!
Promising review: “I have worn these every day since I got them! They have a soft matte feel. The colors match the product photos perfectly. They have a good grip in my hair (I have collarbone-length, medium thickness hair, but a lot of it). I think these would work well for almost any length or thickness of hair, though. They are strong; you can tell because they take a bit of effort to open them at first. Bottom line, if youâre unsure if you should buy them, you should.” âSamantha
Get them from Amazon for $8.99+ (originally $17.99+; available in 16 color combinations).
8. A plug-in color-shifting mushroom light for anyone whose IG aesthetic is extremely cottagecore and/or is extremely clumsy. Could def come in use en route to the bathroom in the middle of the night!
Check out a TikTok of the mushroom nightlight in action.Â
Promising review: “I LOVE this night-light. It’s in my bathroom and is a lovely addition. It turns off the second the lights go on, which is nice because I don’t have to worry about accidentally leaving it on. Super cute and the little itty-bitty lighting element does a good job lighting, just enough so I don’t have to turn the main lights on in the middle of the night.” â1Thand
Get it from Amazon for $5.99.Â
9. A canister of Cadbury drinking chocolate for a cozy, sippable treat just begging to be enjoyed by a crackling fire…even if said fire is just a Yule log on a TV screen. Promising review: “We drink this almost nightly and we do it year-round. When I die, cremate me and put me in a Cadbury Drinking Chocolate tin.” âMajombaszo
Get it from Amazon for $9.26.
10. An adorable bookmark book tracker to keep track of all those tomes they blaze through now that it’s nippier outdoors. And then when they’re done, they can plant it and it’ll turn into wildflowers!British Book Art / Etsy

12. A trio of glitzy ballpoint pens so it’ll be so much easier to find a pen in your bag or drawer when you need one.Amazon
Promising review:Â “They are so lovely. A great gift but I’m keeping them all. They write very smooth. The gem on top is beautiful so many colors. Would definitely buy again.” âMariska
Get them from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in two styles).
13. Essence’s Lash Princess mascara will make for a super dramatic before and after. Prepare to get grilled about where you got your eyelash extensions. And lucky for them, you have a list at the ready because you’ve been trolling Yelp reviews to find the perfect spot to get said extensions.Â
Emma Lord/BuzzFeed
My colleague Emma Lord is all about this mascara. Here’s what she has to say: “Hello, that is my face above, because I bought into the hype of all the 5-star reviews and now I will never look back!! Putting it on is like giving my eyelashes butterfly wings. It doesn’t get clumpy, it stays put no matter how much you sweat, and you can apply it on very lightly if you don’t want it to look so dramatic, or continue applying for longer lashes each time.”
Promising review: “Saw this product on TikTok and thought it would be expensive looking at the results they got. I am beyond amazed with how my lashes look after about two coats. For around $5 you couldnât ask for a better mascara! I will be buying this same one when I run out. I was not expecting to like it as much as I do! No complaints.” âKd
Get it from Amazon for $4.99.
14. The SAEM Iceland Hydrating Eye Stick is a cooling eye stick made with *actual* Icelandic glacial water to depuff your tired under eyes. Oh, and it just feels really, really refreshing.Â
Promising review: “I have always had serious dark circles and bags under my eyes and this has really changed this for me. The results are incredible. The puffiness is gone. The dark circles are hardly noticeable. My sensitive skin has not broken out. I never write reviews, but this was so good that I had to write a review. This actually works.” âBen
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.Â
15. Press-on nails can give you a gel-like mani in about five minutes. I can vouch because these are my hands and I’ve been using them for years instead of getting regular manis.Â
Elizabeth Lilly / BuzzFeed
I’m quite adept at painting my own nails (the only time I get a professional manicure is when I want gel before going on vacation), but these press-on nails have me feeling super lazy about painting my nails because they’re so easy to use! And that’s OK! Each set costs you less than 10 bucks and rather than fool with a bottle of nail glue that ends up anywhere but the nails, each nail has a peel-off plastic that reveals a super sticky surface you press onto your real nail. I find that all the nails stay on about three days when I do stuff like hand-wash my dishes, pet glorious dogs, and scratch many layers of dry shampoo on my scalp. You’ll get 30 nails with each set, which helps you find the right sizes BUT I’ve also found comes in handy when a pointer or middle finger nail pops off (those are the first to go in my experience) so I end up getting about a week’s use of wear out of each nail set. Friends have seen me with the nails on and all have believed they’re the real deal!
Get them from Target: marble/glitter set for $8.59 or similar red set for $8.59 (available in lots more styles)
16. A six-pack of scarf scrunchies for a one-and-done task of putting up your hair and adding a glam touch even if you have to do some REAL math to figure out the last time you washed it. Tomorrow is never promised. Put off a wash and blow-dry session when you can!
Promising review: “I wear ponytails a lot as I transition to a natural gray with my curly hair. Using ‘unique’ hair accessories helps with making a plain, boring, and simple haircare routine way more interesting, and the material is a welcomed safety to help reduce breakage when wearing ponytail scrunchies. I plan on ordering other colors in the near future. You can’t go wrong with this purchase!” âTru
Get them from Amazon for $9.99.
17. LâOrĂ©al Paris Elvive 8 Second Wonder Water to summon up a major dose of moisture in â like the name suggests â a mere eight seconds! Cheers to not having to douse your hair in oil during the styling process later in the hopes of achieving Rich Girl Hair.Â
Promising review: “Bought this not expecting that it would work. I’ve been using products in and on my hair for years, both expensive and inexpensive. This is the best I’ve used, bar none! It smooths and takes away the tightness of the curls. Will buy it again and again!” âJudith Cohen
Get it from Amazon for $9.87.
18. Some waterslide nail decals will easily level up your nail art game. Right now you’re taking a break from pro manis but these’ll hold you over in true compliment-bait fashion.Â
Tattoorary / Etsy
Tattoorary is a Kollum, The Netherlands-based small biz specializing in temporary tattoos and nail decals.Â
Promising review: “These are amazing. I have short nails and have been searching for something to level up my nail art. So easy to use and worth every penny. âš” âStephanie Duncan
Get them from Tattoorary on Etsy for $3.99.
19. A handy jewelry holder for a storage focal point. You’ve gotta love something that’s straight-up glam AND useful. Â
Amazon
Promising review: “Perfect for someone who has many rings. Nice way to store and display.” âAnna
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in seven colors).
20. A daisy-bedecked water bottle with two lid options so you’ll get your sip on at home without worrying about spilling your iced coffee all over your laptop…again.Â
Promising review: “I love this cute water bottle! It was packaged well and easy to drink from. Comes with two different lids and a straw to go through one lid so thatâs nice to have two options. It is a small water bottle about the size of a large mug so I hope that is helpful. Other than that itâs great! đ»đđ” âKitCat
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+Â (available in six styles).
21. Some fetching floral earrings sure to make that tank you’ve basically worn into the ground because it’s just THE perfect top look like the coolest new addition to your closet.Â
Amazon
Promising review: “Iâve worn these earrings a few times during the day or for a night out and each time I received numerous compliments. They arenât heavy and they are easy to insert and remove. I highly recommend these earrings.” âK,M.
Get them from Amazon for $8.98.
22. Cornbread 26 Food Co.’s Cornbread Madeleine as the ultimate treat with their morning coffee the next morning…or as a midday snack…or on a side of wine. Really just eat them how you want. Cornbread 26 Food Co.
Cornbread 26 Food Co. is an NYC-based catering company owned by couple Claude and Craig (they met on Claude’s birthday of May 26, hence the 26 in the name!) who grew a business for their love of entertaining. But lucky for everyone not based in NYC, you buy can their goods online! I’ve tried out many of their varieties and, tbh, I had to make myself stop eating them. They’re that delicious!
Promising review: “The classic cornbread madeleines are a most delicious treat! Perfect sweetness, perfect texture and perfect corn taste!” âAlderfer
Get a 6-pack from Cornbread 26 Food Co. for $9.99 (Shop Pay available).
23. Cuccio Cuticle Oil smells heavenly, but most importantly can treat sorry-looking cuticles and moisturize your paws. Oh, and it’ll look lovely on your vanity. I have this and it takes just a few seconds each day!
Promising review: “This Cuccio milk and honey cuticle moisturizer is truly a cuticle saver. Applying one drop to each cuticle and massaging it in completely will leave your cuticles and hands feeling soft, looking great and the smell is divine. I use it on both my hands and feet and Iâm comfortable showing my fingernails and toenails this summer because this product has made it so easy to feel confident knowing I wonât have crusty cuticles.” âRina C
Get it from Amazon for $5.63+ (available in four scents and two sizes).
24. A Cocokind matcha-infused moisture stick glides on oh-so-smooth under your eyes and on your lips to help hydrate and reduce puffiness.Â
Amazon
Check out a TikTok of the matcha stick in action. Cocokind is a San Francisco-based, woman-founded small business that specializes in botanical-forward skincare with an emphasis on both physical and mental health.Â
Promising review: “This is my first time using the MyMatcha stick and I looovvveee it! I have it on me pretty much all the time so I can dab a little bit on my dry spots as I need to. It softens up my dry areas and even decreases the swelling of my acne! I’ve used it as a moisture stick, an acne anti-inflammatory, and even a fly-away tamer. It’s a great multitasking product.” âalizza d.
Get it from Amazon for $7.48Â or Cocokind for $9Â (vegan).
25. Aveeno Soothing Bath Treatment is a fragrance-free natural colloidal oatmeal bath soak individually packaged to make treating your dry, aggravated skin a little easier. It’ll help soothe skin suffering from poison ivy/oak/sumac, eczema, insect bites, rashes, sunburn, prickly heat, chicken pox, and hives. So really, probably just a good thing to have on hand for future use.Â
Promising review: “The colloidal oatmeal bath is amazing. It calms your skin and feels so soft and wonderful. I take mine and dissolve in a cup of warm water before putting it into the bath to avoid the clumping. As others have mentioned, if you pour it in the bath too quickly, it will clump (eventually dissolving). If your skin tends to develop hives or an itchy rash, this is exactly what you need. It’s soothing and relieves the itching. The smell is pleasant (it really smells like oatmeal) and feels amazing on the skin. Highly recommend for soaking even if you just want a relaxing bath.” âL. Macconnell
Get a box of eight from Amazon Fresh for $7.49.
27. A mountable cat-grooming brush to help your kitty get some rubs when your hands are all tied up with other tasks. Imagine, being able to do something else besides shower love on your precious pet!Promising review: “I got this for my three-legged cat because he can’t scratch his left side. He’ll be trying to scratch and all you see is his little nub going crazy. I found these and he immediately LOVED it! The expression on his face when he first tried it was priceless. The only downside is that it’s possible it’ll fall off because it was hard for me to get all pieces of tape to stick on a corner at the same time, but I can always buy more double-sided tape so not a big deal to me. The product is for Floyd, not me, and he’s happy, so 5 stars.” âPippa Runs
Get it from Amazon for $4.99.
28. A copy of Burn After Writing, a guided journal you’ve probably eyed on TikTok. It urges journal owners to express and explore their feelings away from screen. And then, WELL, you can burn it after writing. Which is just fun. 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. Itâs 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 Iâm 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 things different. Youâre so much more than whatâs been done to you and someoneâs inability to see your worth does not decrease your value. Choose you for a change.” âBrent Helm
Get it from Amazon for $7.32.Â
29. A rainbow prism suncatcher that’ll refract sunlight and make your living room look even cooler while you sit on the couch for what feels like the millionth day while you’re inside getting your money’s worth on rent.
Promising review: “This might be the best thing Iâve ever purchased. My room looks magical on sunny afternoons. If you love yourself buy these crystals. Not only are the rainbows pretty but the crystals are too.” âTiffany Tyree
Get a set of two from Amazon for $7.99.
30. BestLand high-performance matte lipsticks come out to less than $2 a piece but will wear like luxury brand lippies, according to reviewers. After all, we have better things to do than constantly touch up lip color.Â
Promising reviews: “What can I say, I saw a TikTok about this lipstick and for $10 had to try it! The reviews are right, for some reason this lipstick is better than even $20 name brand ones bought from Ulta. Not only does it smell great, but dries in under a minute and survived eating a cupcake, a Starbucks drink, and an entire evening out, no smudging and had to be removed with a makeup wipe. Fantastic product!!” âClaire
“Beautiful and soooo worth the money! Usually I always purchase either Stila Cosmetics or Kylie Jenner but both of those are very pricey and expensive, so I looked up matte lip glosses on Amazon and saw this and thought I would give it a try. I absolutely love it. Very easy to put on does not smudge, beautiful colors, very very happy about the size of it! I went and purchased set B now because I love this product!” âVickyy
Get a six-piece set from Amazon for $9.99Â (available in three shades).Â
31. Broadway long-lasting clear lip gloss set comes in a set of three and often gets compared to the likes of MAC and Kylie Cosmetics in the review section. Â
It comes with three different formulas: mint oil that creates a refreshing cooling sensation (perfect for soothing a cracked lip), rosehip oil for reducing fine lines, and coconut oil for deeply hydrating and locking in moisture.Â
Promising review: “I have tried so many lip glosses from MAC to Kylie to Shea Moisture and Kiehls and I have to say this is by far THE best lip gloss. It is sooo smooth and glossy and doesnât have that normal stickiness to it, which is absolutely amazing!” âPaige
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $4.49.
32. And a 60-pack of waterproof poop stickers to help you deck out your HydroFlask, notebooks, or just slyly slip into people’s bday cards for the next few years.Â
Amazon
Promising review: “These are durable water-resistant stickers. The images have a diverse and wide range. Not all are rated for children so check before giving to a child. We got this to add to a gag gift for my son’s teacher. It was well received.” âBrandie Prichard
Get them from Amazon for $5.97.
