Outdoor Voices Exercise Dress
Outdoor Voices Exercise Dress

You’re looking at the workout dress that launched a thousand workout dresses: The Outdoor Voices Exercise Dress. The first workout dress I’ve ever owned, it has been with me through so much: working out, traveling, walks to the bodega.

lululemon Everywhere Belt Bag

You can read our full review of the lululemon Everywhere Belt Bag here. But TLDR; the internet-famous belt bag is a favorite for good reason. It’s been my personal go-to fanny pack for over two years now and is still in great condition (sans a slight zipper snag I recently noticed.) Its clean, low-profile design makes it easy to pair with any outfit and it’s pretty roomy — I can typically fit my keys, wallet, kindle, phone and chapstick without having to cram. And it’s loaded with pockets: three mesh pockets on the inside and a zippered pocket that spans across the bag’s entire back for even more room.

Saltyface Tanning Foam
Saltyface Tanning Foam

Self-tanning at home can be a messy, smelly and time-consuming process. We’ve tried a lot of self-tanner brands in the past, and can confidently say Saltyface’s revolutionary tanning foam (which is housed in a very nice-looking bottle) is one of the best. It’s easy to apply, doesn’t transfer onto clothes or bedding and gradually develops over 24 hours, producing a more natural, subtle-looking glow.

As someone who wants to track their sleeping habits but refuses to wear their Apple watch to bed because it’s hella uncomfortable, a smart ring is a pretty sick alternative.
