In the wintertime, do you love to wrap yourself up in a heated blanket and wish you could actually walk out of the house that way? Well, you sort of can.

Sure, it's insulated with an eco-friendly filling, but the real stars of the show are the carbon fiber heating elements sandwiched inside of its wind- and water-resistant shell. These create four heating zones — in the left and right front areas, the upper back and the collar — that evenly spread warmth throughout the vest. Even celebs like Reba McEntire are big fans.
Yahoo Senior Beauty Editor Jennifer Romolini swears by this frizz-reducing bestseller.
"Every once in a while a popular internet-famous product comes along that I think will never in 100 years work and then am pleasantly surprised (OK, more like shocked) when it does," she admits. "Such was the case with this strange little tube of the TikTok-famous collagen and protein hair mask from Elizavecca.
It's a repairing treatment that's meant to render even the driest, most straw-like hair into silky strands. You work it into your hair after shampooing and, after 5–15 minutes, the before-and-after is seriously profound: my thin, dry, longtime dyed-blonde mane was bouncy, soft and smooth as a satin sheet and, best of all, didn't feel weighed down. Though it does make your hair slightly greasier than normal, the conditioning impact is worth it — my results lasted for weeks."
While not the largest discount, you can't argue with paying just seven bucks for a tube!

Another product Romolini's become a fan of? This popular eye-area tightener.
"I've been loving this extra-firming eye cream from Derma E, a truly quality brand that makes natural, vegan and cruelty-free products that won't cost you a week's pay," she says. "Made of skin-revitalizing ingredients like copper peptides and plant stem cells, it's clinically proven to improve elasticity, firmness and lighten a darker under-eye skin tone. I especially like it for my upper eyelids, where I've seen a noticeable difference in improved texture over just a few weeks."
This isn't the lowest it's ever been, but at over 40% off, it's still a deal worth considering.
This multiuse hair tool works like the Dyson Airwrap — only at a fraction of the cost.
It comes with three brush heads and a blow-dryer attachment to suit all hair types, whether you want to smooth and straighten or add curl and waves. Now you'll be able to give yourself a professional-level blowout while saving 75% — you're looking at one of the lowest-ever prices we've seen it on sale for.
Frigid fingers are no fun, and these stylish accessories are Oprah- and Yahoo Gifting Editor-approved. "Not only will sliding your hands into these ultra-soft gloves protect your fingers this winter, but they're also touch-screen friendly so you can tap and scroll on your phone without having to expose your fingers to the cold," says Garrity. "These come in five luxe colors."
Our price trackers tell us they've never been on sale for less.

Sure, it's insulated with an eco-friendly filling, but the real stars of the show are the heating elements sandwiched inside of its wind- and water-resistant shell. These create four heating zones — the back, shoulders (under the collar) and two front side pockets — that evenly spread warmth throughout the vest.
These rechargeable, double-sided hand warmers keep your mitts toasty for up to 15 hours, depending on the heat setting (low, medium or high).
"These saved my Raynaud’s syndrome hands last winter," wrote a five-star fan. "I literally used them every night when I got in bed. I would hold one and fall asleep. Don’t know what I’d do without them. At times I’d use the high setting and run it up and down my neck for pain relief."
The Ororo Heated Vest, which McEntire told New York magazine is a "life-saving" winter essential and "the greatest invention known to man" — quite an endorsement! The Silver Grey and white are the least expensive versions — the lowest price we've seen for them — but the other colors are also on sale.
The Ororo Heated Vest has battery-operated heating elements, so you do have to remember to charge the vest via its USB port. That said, it'll stay warm for up to 10 hours on a single charge! "The charge lasts a long time, but I always tell people to buy the extra battery pack as a backup," McEntire said. "There’s nothing worse than being somewhere cold and your battery dies."
Worried about overheating? Don't be. You can customize your warmth level by choosing between three heat settings. And don't sweat washing the Ororo vest, either: it's safe to throw it right in the machine, but you can also hand wash it if you choose. Either way, you can expect years of toasty-warm performance: Its battery can be charged up to 800 times before you'll need to replace it!
But don't just take McEntire's word for it. Take it from the nearly 8,000 Amazon customers who swear by this piece.
"Best invention ever!" gushed one rave reviewer. "I always freeze when I go outside. I live in Minnesota but now that I’m getting older I’m freezing more. It’s my neck that gets so tense when I’m freezing and the heating mechanism is right there in the neck."
"I've been researching heated vests for a year and finally went with this one based on reviews," shared another happy shopper. "I love it! I have Raynaud's and the warmth of the vest helps my circulation. Battery power lasts for hours and [the] vest is very comfortable."
Even medical professionals love it. "Best decision I’ve ever made," shared one healthcare worker. "I work in interventional radiology and can’t wear a jacket or long sleeves in the cold rooms because I have to gown up and stay sterile. It’s been a game-changer in cases. I got the navy blue and it looks great with the hospital scrubs."
Some shoppers say it could use some slight adjustments.
Another shopper wrote: "The only thing I’d change about the vest, is how the power button/ heat setting button lights up. I wish there was an option to turn it off, but I can live with it, not a dealbreaker to me."
"I bought this one for my mom and she loves it!" exclaimed a final fan. "Most of our family has these and we love them. My only complaint is that the battery takes forever to charge."
