    These 42 Fall Things Are Just Too Good To Gatekeep

    You simply must see these Halloween pimple patches.

    Behold: cute bookmarks, amazing new boots, and Twilight-inspired eyeshadow. I would never keep these autumn-improving gems from you.

    1. A pair of glowing cat eyes to keep watch at night. No one's egging or TPing your house this year when you have the Cheshire Cat guarding it!

    The 3D-printed glowing eyes are remote-controlled, come in custom colors, and have a battery that lasts about 100 hours. Neo3D is a small business that sells 3D-printed goods. 

    Promising review: "These glowing eyes are so fun for Halloween. I’m going to keep them inside, peering from a window. Perfect for Halloween!" —Sara

    2. Halloween pimple patches so cute, you'll find yourself actually wishing for a pimple. The hydrocolloid stickers will help protect and draw out sebum from open pimples to encourage faster healing.  

    Halloween-themed hydrocolloid acne patches with designs including pumpkins, skulls, cats, ghosts, candy corn, and spider webs. 72 patches included
    Amazon

    Promising review: "These kinds of patches are cute, effective, and perfect for my sister who LOVES Halloween." —hannah

    Get a pack of 72 from Amazon for $8.99 (also available in 14 other shapes).

    3. A pair of sheepskin insole inserts to add the snuggle factor to your slippers. Now you can pick your slippers purely on aesthetics, knowing these inserts got your back (and feet). As a bonus, the wool offers some extra cushioning and support. 

    Promising review: "Bought these as a refresher for my son's slippers. I know they won't last forever. Neither did the original liners from the slippers themselves. They all flatten out, hence purchasing another set now. These were easy to trim up to fit inside something that is now the shape of his foot. They are a little expensive but not so much as buying a whole new set of slippers, so I find it an acceptable price." —Heather Lunar

    Get them from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in women's sizes 6–12 and men's sizes 8–14).

    4. A coffin letter board with 500 characters and spooky icons. Hmm... I wonder if I could fit the entire Vincent Price voiceover segment from "Thriller."

    Promising review: "This is the perfect size and comes with so many letters, characters, and shapes, so you can change what it says whenever you want. Super easy to put together; worth every penny! I get so many compliments when people come over and see this." —Deni S.

    5. Slow-cooker liners so you don't have to yank the heavy pot out of the cooker to clean it. You can also use the heat-resistant liners to make two hearty fall stews at once. Bags! Gotta love 'em.

    8. Or a felt banner bookmark to grace your latest horror read. Whether it's more creepy-cute or something that'll keep you up at night, it deserves something more elegant than a crumpled CVS receipt.

    9. A Twilight-inspired Colourpop eyeshadow palette so your eyes can be as mysterious and moody as Forks, Washington. Go for a smokey eye look that mirrors Bella's troubled heart or a bit of shimmer to pay homage to Edward's sparkly skin.

    Get it from Amazon for $25.

    10. A rechargeable lighter with an extra-long neck so you can light candles that are getting a little long in the tooth (jar). It doesn't need lighter fluid or a flame, making it a safe and mess-free option.

    If you're looking for a new candle, consider this pumpkin one!

    Promising review: "This is seriously the coolest device of my winter holiday. It makes lighting candles a breeze. Yes, there is a weird crackling noise, but that's a super minor annoyance. It's a super intuitive device. Plus, the lighter with the USB (included), charge for a bit, then pop it open and light ALL THE THINGS; well, candles. I don't know how well it lights cigarettes or whatever. However, for my personal intended use, it's awesome!" —Jee W

    Get it from Amazon for $5.99 (available in seven styles).

    11. A pack of cherry Twizzlers shaped like lil' ghosts. Something about the sharp edges makes me feel like they'll taste better than the rope version... And hello, they're gonna look so cute in a Halloween candy dish (see next slide).

    Promising review: "I love all red licorice, and the nibs take me back to my childhood. They are fresh and much cheaper than at the gas station or supermarket. Taste is good. And so far, they have all been fresh." —Joseph Merle

    Get it from Amazon for $3.46.

    12. And a big-mouth ghost dish happy to keep your candy, coffee pods, cotton swabs, or any other knickknacks handy like a spooky hamster. 

    Promising review: "Great size: not too big, but definitely not small or insignificant. The kids loved pulling candy from his mouth. Super cute item, seemingly well made. Very happy with this ghost candy holder." —AB

    Get it from Amazon for $25.73.

    13. A pair of fleece-lined leggings that are basically just blankets for your legs. Despite the extra warmth, they're thin enough to wear with a skirt or even under your pants. 

    leggings with fuzzy inside
    Amazon

    These "one-size" leggings fit women's sizes S–L. 

    Promising review: "These leggings are AMAZING. The inside is just as plush as the pictures indicate, and it feels like you have a soft blanket hugging your legs. They are thick and not at all see-through, and very warm. I've worn them in the rain, and while they are not waterproof, they are very water-resistant. The extra piece of fabric that goes under your ankles is comfortable and makes sure they don't ride up if you wear them with boots. I would recommend hand washing to avoid pilling. Other than that, they are perfect. I am ordering more!" —Sabrina0002

    Get them from Amazon for $9.98+ (available in three colors) or see a highly-rated plus-size version here (available in women's sizes XL–4XL and five colors).

    14. A gothic cathedral book light to give some gravitas to your fantasy or horror collection. It comes with two LED candles that provide a flickering glow perfect for a year-round spooky vibe. The Locked Tomb series would be an incredible choice, NGL.

    Promising review: "This is so amazing! I absolutely love it! The black and light blue is beautiful. This option wasn’t pictured, so I just took the chance. And it’s beautiful together. Looks great with my Fallen books. Arrived quickly. Thanks so much." —Lisa

    Get it from Prismatic3DPrints1 on Etsy for $33.60+ (available in many color combinations).

    15. An inflatable AirFort for cozy hangs in the living room. Bring in a star projector, snacks, and a laptop, then enjoy a spooky movie night under the stars.

    Throw in a star projector to complete the experience. 

    Promising review: "I bought this and a box fan for my grandson’s birthday party. He had a ball. Kids need to be big enough to know to avoid sticking fingers or anything else in the fan because the fan is in the tent. There is a window they can see out of, or you can see in. It was roomy enough for a few kids. The material is very thin, so it doesn’t take up a lot of room. To set up, you just fix it around the face of the fan and turn it on. To put away, turn off the fan and remove the tunnel from around it. It deflates and can be easily folded and put away. Worth the money? Depends on how much you want to spend on hearing a little boy squeal with excitement. It is something that could be played with long after the party is over." —MoTeach

    Get it from Amazon for $59.95 (also available in 18 other shapes, like UFO, barn, and cottage).

    16. A pack of Nightmare Before Christmas candy rings that are THE fashion statement of the season. Rock a green apple Oogie Boogie, blue raspberry Jack, or strawberry Sally, and prepare to get featured in the New York Times' Style section. 

    Three Halloween-themed candy rings featuring spooky character faces on purple ring bases are displayed on a reflective surface

    These might be even better than full-size candy bars if you're looking to become the best trick-or-treater house on the block, FYI.

    Promising review: "These Nightmare Before Christmas rings are a fun treat for Halloween, parties, or any fan of the movie! The flavors are delicious, and they're perfect for goodie bags, trick-or-treaters, or themed events. The rings are individually wrapped, keeping them fresh and mess-free." —AP_fitswithpalmy

    Get a pack of 18 from Amazon for $14.88.

    Promising review: "These make me so happy every time I use my phone! I thought it might be difficult to set up, but it was easy and the instructions were incredibly clear." —Suzie

    Get it from WeDoAesthetic on Etsy for $5.40.

    18. A pair of snuggly Ugg ankle boots for when you want the comfort and warmth of a classic Ugg but without the big cumbersome shape. Now your feet won't go numb halfway through the line for a latte served in a pumpkin. 

    Pick up some waterproofing spray so you can wear them in slushy weather!

    Promising review: "So cute. So comfortable. True to size. Love them. Easy to take on and off. I have worn them a few times, even dressed down with some sweatpants and dressed up with some jeans and a cute shirt. If you are on the fence, do it. They are pricy but def worth it. You get what you pay for." —Samantha

    Get it from Amazon for $139.95 (available in women's sizes 5–12 and two colors).

    19. And a leather-cleaning brush sure to be your boots' new best friend. The three built-in brushes can revive your boots to their former glory, back before you stepped into that salty snow mound last year. 

    Promising review: "BUY THIS THING! I got mud on my new suede boots and thought for sure they were ruined, but this brush completely restored them. I was shocked. I even used it on an old pair of boots from college that I have considered 'ruined' for several years and it did wonders on getting rid of the filth on top of the suede. I was so impressed! It's absolutely worth getting and trying for yourself! Scuff marks take a bit more time to improve but they do look better after brushing them." —Gaby Scott

    Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in six styles).

    20. A battery-operated patio umbrella light so your family can actually see each other while dining outside. The battery-powered device has 28 LEDs to properly illuminate a whole picnic table after the sun sets (something that's happening earlier and earlier now. :/)

    The tool-free installation is as simple as opening the unit and clamping it onto the umbrella pole. It requires four AA batteries to run, which are not included. 

    Promising review: "This light is great!!! It has three settings to adjust the amount of brightness you need. The lowest level is great for just sitting around your patio table and having a couple of drinks with friends. Brightest setting is PERFECT for playing cards! We play cards a few times a month. There are two 70+-year-olds who did not complain that they couldn’t see. So, works great in my book! 😁" —Mandie Jordan

    Get it from Amazon for $9.99.

    21. A soot sprite tealight holder that's so cute, I'm just gonna...*keels over and dies from the adorableness* Grab a bunch to set a cozy fall ambiance. 

    Get some wax or electric tealights.

    Promising review: "This is seriously so cute! It’s a good size and sturdy, doesn’t tip over, and makes it really easy to move around for convenience. Couldn’t be cuter… It’s a soot sprite!" —Andriah

    Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in two styles).

    22. A cocoon-like pullover hoodie dress to wear on chilly fall days when you want to dress up but long for the comfort of your favorite sweatshirt. This thing hits the knees, meaning you can roll into a ball and hide inside it when needed. 

    Promising review: "This dress is perfect for any occasion. I wore it out with sneakers to a ball game and got so many compliments. The material stretches, so it was easy to move in. I later paired it with some dressy flats to go to dinner, and everyone raved about how nice I looked. The material is so soft, and it’s the right thickness to keep you warm on a chilly day but not too hot for a sunny day. I will order more." —KJ

    Get it from Amazon for $43.99 (available in women's sizes S–3XL and 14 colors). 

    23. A lil' wizard frog ready to chill wherever you place him. Imagine how cute he'd be sitting on the edge of your candy bowl, waiting for trick-or-treaters or on a side table, ready to watch some scary movies with you. 

    Promising review: "I’ve been working at this office for three years, and he is the first decoration I’ve purchased for my desk. I couldn’t be happier with him." —Chelsea

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99.

    24. Waterslide decal paper that'll come in handy with all your Halloween decor projects. Stick your art or photos on nails, toys, candles, planters, or whatever else you’d like.

    Print out whatever design you'd like, coat it with acrylic varnish, and then dry. Next, cut out your design, soak it in water, and voila! You have a decal that can be removed from the water and stuck to anything you'd like.

    Promising review: “I wanted to buy this paper for the sole purpose of making my own water transfer nail decals. Make sure to follow the instructions with regard to dry time and sealing with a clear acrylic coat prior to submersing in water. The paper itself is transparent (I know some papers have a frosty look to them), and it transfers easily (as long as the instructions are followed). I made my first set of nail decals and was pleasantly surprised by how easy they were to get onto my nails and that I was able to manipulate them even after putting them on (with a little water on my fingertip) to get them just right. I sealed the decal with a clear top coat, and it’s good to go. Overall, great product will purchase again!” —Kelly

    Get 10 sheets from Amazon for $15 (available in two styles and two printer types). 

    25. A peeler, corer, and slicer device you'll definitely want on hand when you get back from an apple-picking trip and realize you bought waaayyyy too many. It'll save time prepping those apples for all the pies and cobblers you'll have to make. And when you're not pumping out fall treats, you can use it to slice your potatoes.

    It securely suctions to the countertop, so all you do is turn the crank while the machine does the rest. When your apple is naked, it slides right off the core.

    Promising review: "It’s super easy. Used it to slice apples for an apple pie. It worked wonderfully. My kids have pulled it out to serve themselves apples for a snack. And I’ve also used it to peel potatoes and to make curly fries (I just removed the coring blade). It worked great for all of the above. I truly highly recommend this product." —Camila Irwin

    Get it from Amazon for $30.99+ (available in suction or clamp bases).

    26. Chunky ankle boots in a timeless sillouette to give any outfit a little edge and a lot of comfort. The elastic sides make it easy to throw these on, so I foresee these being your go-to boots this fall. 

    Promising reviews: "I love everything about these boots. They are well-made, very fashionable, and comfortable. I was a little concerned about the height of the heel being uncomfortable, but I wore them to work all day and didn't have any problems with my feet hurting. Very happy with my purchase!" —momtojsh

    "I have wide feet, so I am always scared to buy boots because they tend to be too tight on my feet and hurt after a while. But I ordered my normal size in these boots and they fit perfectly! I’m glad to finally have a pair of boots that don’t suffocate my feet." —Bethany Shaffer

    Get them from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in women's sizes 5.5–12, including wide fits, and nine styles).

    27. Or stretchy, sock-style block-heel ankle boots that are already super cute, but wait until you see the STAR-SHAPED TREADS! Imagine stepping in a puddle and then leaving lil' star-shaped footprints on the sidewalk. 

    Promising review: "You know when you get new shoes and you need to break them in? Not with these puppies. The first day I wore them, I was like, wow, these are so comfortable. I wore them the whole day and was even able to go to a party with them with no issue. I wear them to work (a job where I’m up all the time and even have to run sometimes), and I have never had any tears or breakage. It’s easy to get marks on them, but it’s also super easy to clean. Also, I’m already going to get another pair. I already have white, and next is black. So if you’re looking for a good shoe, this is it." —IT

    Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (available in sizes 6–11 and seven colors). 

    28. A mantel decoration to get your home into the Halloween spirit. Throw it over your fireplace, entryway, or snack table for some extra spooky glamour.

    29. A plaid overall dress, a layering champ that'll look SO cute while you're hitting the farmers market, carving pumpkins, or just looking for some crunchy leaves to stomp on. 

    Promising review: "Perfect fall wardrobe piece. This is a sleek and elegant plaid overall dress. Love the adjustable straps, it’s well-made, love the pockets." —cozyheart

    Get it from Amazon for $33.99 (available in sizes XS–3XL and 10 colors).

    30. Mushroom and leaf window clings for anyone who wants their room to feel like a fairy hideaway. At the right time of day, they refract light and shoot rainbows into your room — how magical! 

    Promising review: "I got these to increase the whimsy factor of my home, and they don’t disappoint. Even my mother-in-law was enamored by them. They applied easily. I was cleaning windows anyway, so while they were still damp, I slapped these clings up. They make nice rainbows and make me happy every time I see them sparkling. Sometimes it’s the little things that get us through the day, ya know?" —Desiree

    Get a pack of 18 from Amazon for $13.90.

    31. A no-nonsense maxi ready to go to great ~lengths~ to make you look good. And with over 40 different colors and patterns, you can lean on this look all fall long. 

    Promising review: "Loved this dress! Very comfortable, love the length, the color, the pockets, and the quality fabric. I would highly recommend this dress to anyone and will certainly purchase it again." —Cathy

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 43 colors).

    32. Lantern night-lights to give your home a little Sleepy Hollow magic. Luckily, no Headless Horseman will be stalking your halls. 

    My mom just bought these, and I thought they were cute! They look like they're made of glass and metal, but are secretly plastic. They have a light sensor and turn on/off automatically, but they're kinda sensitive, so they mostly stay on.

    Get them from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in two packs and three colors). 

    33. A set of zombie ice pop molds for a cold treat that's to die for. The leg-shaped sticks have feet so they can stand on their own and pose while you take a picture. 

    The mold makes four undead ice pops!

    Promising review: "These are the cutest. Easy to take out of the mold, and the frozen juice looks exactly like the zombies! Absolutely LOVE that the sticks are feet. Easy to clean, breeze to fill up, I didn't have any issues with leaks. A bit on the pricy side, but so worth it." —Berniece 

    Get it from Amazon for $16.10 (available in six other styles). 

    34. The Flick Stick winged eyeliner stamp to get the perfect cat-eye look without even trying. You can master your moody fall makeup look in minutes and walk out the door without reaching for a single makeup remover wipe. 

    The Flick Stick comes from New Zealand-based brand and small biz Lovior Beauty. 

    Promising review: "This eyeliner is so easy to use and makes a perfect winged eyeliner look every time! I saw it on TikTok, and I'm glad I tried; it saved me so much time rather than trying to make a winged one myself." —Linds

    Get it from Amazon for $14.97 (available in four sizes).

    35. A batty hair barrette that's the perfect mix of chic and creepy. It's ideal for any office goths or fashionistas looking to get into the holiday spirit.

    Pins with Personality / Etsy

    Pins with Personality is a small business based in Rhode Island. 

    Promising review: "Super cute, and the clip is sturdy and good quality. Although it does struggle to hold my hair (finer wavy hair), so if you have thick or curly hair, I would plan to have a backup way to secure it in case the clip can't hold your hair. Overall, super adorable design, fast shipping, good communication from the seller, and reasonable price for the quality of the item." —Pudge

    Get it from Pins with Personality on Etsy for $20 (available in three colors).

    36. A window insulator kit to prevent drafts and keep your warm air inside where it belongs. The plastic film shrinks when heated to create an airtight seal around drafty windows. 

    To install, stick on the plastic, heat with a hair dryer, and trim the film to fit.

    Promising review: "I buy this every winter, and it makes a BIG difference! We have super-thin windows, and this works like a charm to stop 80% of the cold drafts. I find I can sit right next to the window without a problem after installing them. It's easy to install and looks invisible after you apply heat with a hair dryer. No one will be able to tell there's a film, and it'll look completely transparent after you apply heat. It was so satisfying to see the wrinkles disappear! It looks great, works great, and will save your energy! Win win win!" —Raymond

    Get a three-window kit from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in packs of 3, 5, and 10).

    37. A cozy wrap sweater dress that'll have everyone who sees you asking where you got it. Whether you choose to share your secret and keep them guessing is up to you! Pair it with some thigh-high boots, and you're ready to be the best-dressed person at the pumpkin patch. 

    Promising review: "OK, I am totally in love with this dress. I am always skeptical about buying clothes online, especially dresses, when I can’t try them on. But WOW. This dress is so beautiful. It fits like a dream, and the material is of such wonderful quality. I have already bought it in two colors. I love the tight fit and that it’s not too tight, but just tight enough. This dress keeps me incredibly warm as well, so I can totally wear it during wintertime! I love that the tie is a separate piece because you can make it just how you want. It’s a perfect fit! I have nothing bad to say about this dress, and I can’t wait to buy more!! :)" —Katie

    Get it from Amazon for $50.99 (available in women's sizes S–XL and 23 colors)

    38. A shoe stretch spray if you have a pair of gorgeous loafers or boots you love but never wear...because of the agonizing pain that comes with it. This spray will gradually stretch them out without staining or fading and is likely more effective than the freezer trick.

    "I injured my foot a few months back, and most of my shoes don't fit. I've tried stretchers, a hair dryer, wearing several socks — everything. I bought this stuff, and within half an hour, my problems were solved. Try this method first." —Susan Olson

    Get it from Amazon for $10.99. 

    39. A pack of eucalyptus and peppermint shower steamers that are basically bath bombs for your shower.

I live in NYC in a rental, and I have a really drab light in my kitchen that even an electrician couldn't get off the ceiling without breaking...so I gave up on replacing it right after I moved in. Alas, fast forward a year, and I found Tulip on TikTok! Instantly, I thought 1. This is absolutely genius, and 2. How has no one come up with this before?!?!

    'Installing' it (installing makes it seem way more involved than it is) took all of 10 minutes, and that includes removing it from the box, Command Stripping the ring to the ceiling, and then popping the magnetic shade in place. (Honestly, the thing that took me the longest was fishing my step stool out of the depths of my junk closet.) Not only is the shade itself beautiful, but the diffused light is just so soft and pretty. I can't wait to get another one for my entryway!!!"

    Promising review: "I have been searching for a paper lamp or replacement for my current apartment lights, but they either wouldn't fit or it would require too much effort that my landlord wouldn't appreciate. That's when I came across Tulip. I can't be more blunt than this — you literally Command Strip the ring to the ceiling, and the shade attaches via magnet...seriously ingenious." —Oliver O.

    What's included: Ceiling mount, Tulip shade, 12x removable tape, and 3x screws (as needed for textured ceiling applications). 

    Get it from Tulip for $149 (available in 12 styles). 

    41. A pair of fleece-lined sweats happy to hug your legs in their warm embrace. Cold weather should never stop you from being as cuddly as possible.

    Promising review: "I'm always cold in the Wisconsin winters. These toast me up and are perfect for lounging. So cozy." —Jodi Larson

    Get them from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and 15 colors) or check out this plus-size version here (sizes 1X–5X).

    42. A flannel plaid shacket, which is likely going to be your apple-picking and pumpkin spice latte–drinking uniform. According to reviewers, it's warm but breathes well, so you can wear it through finicky transitional weather. 

    Reviewers say this runs large so, depending on the type of fit you're going for, you may want to order a size down. 

    Promising review: "Super cute and oversized for pairing with any outfit. I got the green for St. Patrick’s Day, then ordered black because I loved it so much. Large was super comfy and cute with a black bodysuit under it!" —Lindsey Daniels

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and seven colors/styles) or check out this similar shirt in plus sizes 16–28 for $18.98.
