Over the last year, I’ve discovered so many new amazing things—more than usual. They’re not all beauty products or tech gadgets, but this “Top 10” really includes a little bit of everything— the best of the best! I wanted to create a blog post to share with you some of my amazing finds. Sometimes, we try twenty different products and only find one good one, so today, I’m bringing you ten amazing ones! Here’s my top ten in no particular order…

1. Roomba j7+ and Braava Jet Bundle
I’ve always had a basic Roomba, but these 2 upgrades together really save me hours of time each week! I received these for Christmas and couldn’t be happier with them! They are so incredibly smart and the technology is amazing. The iRobot Roomba j7+ literally maps out your home’s floors and allow you to choose to only clean certain rooms or mark parts of the room as “off limits.” This was helpful during Christmas when decorations were in random places. This vacuum picks up everything and it even empties itself. It also does a fantastic job of not getting stuck! Major upgrade!!
The iRobot Braava Jet m6 is amazing and wet mops my floor like a Swiffer would do. It even does the edges around the baseboards precisely. I am so in love.
It is some new level of time-saving when you can be doing laundry and unloading the dishwasher while the vacuuming and mopping get done at the same time! Easy on the back too!
2. Peloton Bike
If you’ve been here over the last 6 months, you know I am obsessed with working out for the first time in my life thanks to my Peloton Bike. I love being able to have fun and work out at the same time. Usually, the two have been mutually exclusive in the past. I love the upbeat classes and enjoy the new LaneBreak game too! If you’re considering purchasing a Peloton, you can use my referral code to get $100 off accessories for your bike (mat, shoes, HR monitor, etc.). Just use my referral code at checkout: 22DPPM.
I hate dry shampoo. Hate it. I prefer to wash my hair every single day. But let’s be honest.. time isn’t always on our side. I found a dry shampoo I don’t hate and dare I say, love? They make it for light tones and dark tones. What I love about the one for light tones is that it has some purple in it so it tones a little too! Your hair also doesn’t feel chalky or gross. It feels lightweight and keeps shine, but not greasy! Perfection in an aerosol can!
Never thought I’d be into the shortest of the Ugg boots, but here we are– and I love them! One of my best friends got me the red pair above for my birthday– which is actually perfect because the school I teach at has colors of red and blue! They’ve already gotten a ton of use! The fit is super flattering and they look great with just about anything! They are available in different colors at different stores. You can find them at Ugg, Nordstrom, and Zappos!
I got this for Christmas over a year ago– and I absolutely love it. I really started using it over this last year and have found it is SO easy on my hair, while giving my hair a beautiful fullness, whether I wear it straight or curly! The body is real with this thing! It’s expensive and constantly sold out, but such a great investment. It’s a blow dryer, round brush, paddle brush, and curler in one! It creates the prettiest curls I’ve ever seen by curling the hair while damp. It leaves long-lasting curls that stay all day (for multiple days actually) in some of my friends with heavy hair who normally can’t get curl to stay for an hour. It takes some practice and YouTube tutorials to get the hang of it, but once you do, it becomes your best friend for good hair days every day.
It has been out of stock for a while, but you can find it restocked first on the Dyson website, rather than Sephora or Ulta. I’d bookmark all 3 and keep checking. It does re-stock and you probably can’t be too picky on color.
If you have longer hair, you’ll want the longer barrels as well– which you must purchase separately.
Oh my gosh– I love this stuff. And if you’re one of my family members or closest friends, you already know it because I’m constantly bragging it up. LOL! I use it for cleaning the kitchen, pots and pans, the stove, the microwave, the countertops, the bathroom sink, the shower, and the front porch step, to name a few… It cleans everything! It’s a spray with the power of Dawn. I like the Green Apple scent better than the classic Fresh scent. You can also purchase refills at a discount– instead of buying an entire new spray bottle! Definitely add this to your next Target pick-up order!!
Last year, I splurged and got the new GoPro Hero9 before our last Disney trip. It was the first time GoPro put a camera on the front! This was extremely helpful for the selfies Erin and I took at Disney (see above)! I had a GoPro Hero3 previously and the 9 was such a huge upgrade. The photo quality and color was exceptional and allowed us to capture the entire shot! Some of our best Disney photos were shot on the GoPro. My castle pic will always be one of my favorites though. ♡
Yes, the GoPro is meant for video and I use it for that too, but the photos are still amazing. The wide angle iPhone shots do not hold a candle to GoPro shots.
So, what’s the difference between the Hero9 and Hero10? They look almost identical. The new 10 has a faster frame rate at a higher resolution and better low light performance. The other difference is about $100. The Hero9 is an extremely capable camera– and now with the release of the very similar Hero10, it’s $100 cheaper. Score.
8. Lancome Cils Booster XL Primer
Erin got me this mascara primer for Christmas and now, I can’t live without it! It really lengthens and even thickens the lashes, smoothing them out before applying mascara. Now, I don’t even like my lashes with just mascara because I love them with the primer so much! Above, you can see a photo I sent Erin of my lashes the first time I used it. She was right when she thought I’d love this product!
9. Drunk Elephant Make-up Melting Butter Cleanser
I started using this over the last year to remove my make-up. It is similar in texture to coconut oil, but much smoother. It melts away your make-up, while nourishing your lashes and skin and leaving your skin buttery smooth and clean!
10. Farmacy Honey Halo Ultra-Hydrating Moisturizer
I got this in my FabFitFun box and it has easily become my favorite moisturizer. My skin gets so dry and itchy in the winter and it has kept my face moisturized and my skin supple! It is SO hydrating and I love how my skin feels when I wake up. It does not cause excess oil or breakouts. My skin craves this stuff now. I’ve already ordered more!
I love sharing good products here on our blog and I hope you found something you might also love here today too! Thanks for reading!
