Gentle and soothing, this treatment heals the driest of lips. (Amazon)
Right about now, our lips are feeling the winter blues and they are crying out for not just a balm but a deeply hydrating remedy. If there's anyone who knows something about curing dry skin and chapped lips, it's someone who works at a high altitude where the air is always cold and dry. Our aviation pro’s pick? Cliganic USDA Organic Lip Balm and right now, you can get a pack of six for just $10 at Amazon.
If your denim collection could use a refresh, these No. 1 bestselling high-rise tapered jeans belong in your wardrobe. Not only are they flattering, with their leg-lengthening high waist, reviewers also say they're super comfortable — and the tapered design will highlight all of your cute fall boots! $12 for a pair of jeans is practically unheard of these days, with many quality pairs costing upward of $100. These cost less than the price of a movie ticket, and we've yet to see them on sale for less all year.
"Always comfortable. Always look good," asserted one stylish shopper. "Many times I have [had] to wear [them] day through overnight — sometimes curled up on a two-seater chair to catch a few Zzzs, and never had that stiff-jean, circulation-cutoff, heavy-dye numbing feeling. These have become my go-to jeans."
This is an Amazon No. 1 bestseller because it's just such a darn good product. Is this the lowest we've ever seen it for? No. But at 40% off, it's still a great deal for something that'll save your clothes when your toiletry bottles stage a mutiny. Even better, it's a space-saver when you've checked into your hotel or Airbnb and find out your only counter space is a pedestal sink.
Instead of digging through a jumbled pouch or scattering your stuff across the back of the toilet, you just unzip, hang it up, and everything's right there nestled in clear, TSA-compliant pouches for you to see. It has multiple compartments to keep things organized and a hook that keeps it hung and out of the way.
Just one of these brass beauties looks like it would cost more than this entire set, which recently would have set you back over $100. Included are a stunning round watch, chain bracelet, enameled bangle and crystal-laden bangle.
You can stack 'em or wear 'em individually — either way, you'll be donning some next-level arm candy. This is just about the lowest price we've seen this set marked down to (over 70% off).
Garrity says, "I know, I know, gloves aren't exactly the most novel gift idea, but they're one of those things that we all need to refresh every couple of winters. These fleece-lined favorites are just as practical as they are pretty: One Amazon shopper raved that 'the fur cuff is perfect and looks expensive,' while another mentioned that they 'kept my hands warm during my trip to the northeast and in cold weather.' The best of both worlds, eh?"
That 66% discount isn't too shabby, either...

If you came of age pre-Y2K, you know Revlon's Rum Raisin lippie. The iconic color is back, baby, and this moisture-rich balm formula is much better suited to tired, dry lips with nourishing hyaluronic acid, aloe and even rose quartz.
Gentle and soothing, this treatment heals the driest of lips.
Packed with good-for-lips ingredients like coconut oil, sunflower seed oil, shea butter and cocoa butter, this balm provides long-lasting moisture.
This set of lip balm goes on sale throughout the year, but we don't expect the price to drop again for a few months. But if winter is making your lips thirsty now, you might want to jump on this deal.
We had a chat with pilot and aviation enthusiast Duke Armitage. He gave us the low-down on everything he considers essential when he's working above the clouds, and he listed Cliganic USDA Organic Lip Balm as a must-have. It's packed with good-for-lips ingredients like coconut oil, sunflower seed oil, shea butter and cocoa butter for long-lasting moisture. All blended together, they nourish and shield against chapping, cracking and other signs of dryness. This pack comes with six tubes of flavors: Mint Burst, Citrus, Beeswax, Eucalyptus Mint, Vanilla and Coconut.
More than 21,000 shoppers' lips are already on the mend, thanks to this balm.
"During winter, my lips get choppy and dry," shared a five-star fan. "I use this lip balm during that time and my lips stay hydrated and moisturized. If you happen to taste it it is not pleasant but the smell is incredible. My favorite is citrus and eucalyptus mint."
"Love how long it stays on your lips even if you're a lip licker like me," raved another fan. "Keeps lips moist all day."
"I've been trying to heal my lips as well because they're always dry and peeling," another rave reviewer wrote. "Since I've been consistent with using this product during the day, my lips look and feel so much better. Overall, it's a great product. I'm so glad I found this because none of the other lip balms I use ever seemed to help until this one."
"This is, hands down, the BEST lip balm that I have ever used," gushed a convert. "I have been using it for less than 12 hours and my dried, cracked lips are healed and feel better than they have in a very long time! It goes on smoothly without dragging and feels amazing!"
Some shoppers say this balm could use some adjusting.
"The only peeve I have is I wish they had an easier way of peeling off the part around the cap to open it," wrote one shopper. "Other than that I love this!"
Another shopper shared: "I feel like they could be a little more moisturizing but overall, I'm super satisfied."
