My 10 Favorite Products From 2025

One of my favorite parts of December online is all the best-of-the-year lists. Isn’t it fun to see what people love?!

Whether it’s books, products, movies or more, I’m here for every single one of those lists!

For the last five years, I’ve put together an end-of-year list of some of my very favorite products (you can see the 2019 list here, the 2020 list here, the 2021 list here, the 2022 list here, the 2023 list here and the 2024 list here) and I love keeping an eye out all year for products that make the cut!

Here are my very favorite products of 2025!

(P.S. Keep an eye out for Bart’s favorite products this year – post is coming later this week!)

The Best Products of 2025

Candied Jalapeños
I grabbed these for a recipe this spring —and I can’t believe I’d never tried them before! They add the perfect balance of sweet, sour, and spicy, instantly taking any dish up a notch. I put them on everything now. Pizza, sandwiches, salad, tacos – you name it, and a candied jalapeño slice makes it better!

Crossbody Bag
My beloved belt bag that I’ve taken on trips for the last several years has been totally sold out for months with no restock in sight, so I’ve been on the lookout for a replacement. I ordered one of these bags for my fourteen year old and the moment I opened it, I ordered myself one too. It switches seamlessly from a crossbody bag to a belt bag, fits my basic Kindle, sunglasses, wallet, and keys, and it is so good I haven’t used another bag since it arrived. I ended up ordering ones for my three younger girls and we are all obsessed! (Some colors and patterns are 50% off PLUS my affiliate code JANSSEN will take an extra 10% off!).

Portable Charger
I have several other portable chargers and this is the one I used every day on our trip to Boston – it charges my phone CRAZY fast and is nice and slim so it fits easily into my tiny crossbody bag. There are lots of color options and I love that there are two kinds of cords built right in.

Gold Bracelet
This bracelet was one of the things on my birthday wishlist for my 40th birthday and my parents gave it to me (along with this one). I’ve worn it nearly every day since my birthday and I love that it adds a little subtle sparkle to every outfit without getting in my way! I ended up ordering this one too from the same brand and love it just as a much!

Zipper Pencil Box
I am full on obsessed with these – I snagged them in the summer when I was on a Target run with my husband and now I can’t stop talking about them. They’re so convenient for holding sunscreen, snacks, card games, and, of course, school supplies. And under $4? Don’t mind if I get ten!

Yoto Card Holder
I can’t believe how long it took me to try out these viral tab and ring sets for storing Yoto cards but I’m fully converted now. I love not having loose cards all over the house! And for under $10 for 10 rings and 200 tabs? Grab a set immediately.

Foldology Origami Set
This has been hands down the most popular thing I have shared this year! THOUSANDS of you have snagged them for Easter baskets, road trips, plane flights, or stocking up for birthday gifts. These kept my girls thoroughly entertained on our long flights to/from Australia.

Thin Strap Sandals
I wore these CONSTANTLY all summer long. I love the look of them, they’re comfortable, and they’ve held up great for hiking (I wore them for two straight days of camping and hiking in Canyonlands in the spring), pool trips, adventures up the canyon, and every day life. I literally cannot recommend them enough!

Tilted Puzzle Board
I’ve loved my puzzle board I bought last year, but this year I couldn’t help trying out a tilted version and oh. my. word am I in love with it. It has all the features I love of my other one (space for a 1500 piece puzzle, sorting drawers, and a spinning feature) but it also tilts up so your neck doesn’t get tired from bending over and the surface is just SLIGHTLY grippy so your pieces don’t slide off (although you can still manually slide them around with no issue).

Nike Killshot Sneakers
These have been my most worn shoes all year long and they were really the MVPs for our Australia trip – I wore them virtually every single day of our trip even for miles and miles of walking. If you’re looking for a travel shoe straight out of the box, I think the Eccos are better (these took more breaking in), but now that they’re broken in, they were absolutely perfect for all that traveling and I think a little more fun than the Eccos.

And here are my team’s favorite products!

Cute Kindle Case
I’ve had the same black Kindle case since I got my first Kindle in 2011! The black case was still in okay shape, but I wanted something more fun and one that would be easier to spot. There are tons of really fun options in this post!

Skin Bae
I’ve been eyeing this face serum for far too long and decided it was time to move on from my $5 Ponds moisturizer I’ve been using the last 20 years. Skin Bae is incredibly hydrating and gives my face just the right amount of glow (not greasy). I’ve been really tempted to try their new retinol alternative – maybe in 2026!

Pepper Grinder
There’s nothing like freshly cracked pepper, and after nearly two years of using a broken grinder, I finally upgraded – and I’m obsessed. This hand-crank grinder lets you mill a generous amount of pepper into the bottom reservoir, so when a recipe calls for something like 2 teaspoons, you can actually measure it instead of guessing how many cranks it takes.

Picnic Blanket
I got this outdoor picnic blanket last Christmas, and we ended up using it in the spring, summer, and fall this year. We even set a goal to eat a picnic dinner at a new park once a week last summer – and this blanket came with us every time. It’s incredibly durable, water-resistant, and folds up neatly for easy carrying. Plus, the designs and prints couldn’t be cuter.

Tineco Wet Dry Vacuum I’ve had my eye on one of these vacuum mops for over a year and finally got one. It completely lives up to the hype! I have an adorable, but very messy, one year old and this vacuum has made cleaning up after meal times so much easier! It cleans up sticky, crumbly, and wet messes in no time. I now use it way more than my Dyson Stick vacuum (that is way more expensive)!

Milk Frother When I was thinking about my favorite products from this year I was trying to think about things I use every single day. This certainly fits the bill! I guess I know I am in my thirties because the number of supplements I take every day has increased- protein powder, electrolytes, pre workout, creatine, etc. This frother comes with us on vacations I love it that much! I bought a bigger immersion blender but ended up returning it because I didn’t like it as much as this little frother. I stock up when they are on sale and keep several on hand!
