One of the most humiliating things about being a human is having to wear clothes all the time. For most people, this means having to go shopping to hide their indecent bodies. Unfortunately, unlike basic necessities like eating and sleeping, shopping can be embarrassing.I love shopping. I’m good at shopping. I’m great at browsing. I know how to find the good stuff. I check racks of clothes quickly and thoroughly. I feel fabrics, note colors and textures, evaluate weights and details. There’s a lot of information to take in, but I’m very capable of processing it all. I know a…

The exception to this is if you’re shopping for top-tier items around a major holiday. In this case, Amazon’s Labor Day sale is the perfect opportunity to finally get your hands on your favorite products. After more than five years of reporting on popular products on Amazon, it’s fair to say I’m intimately familiar with best-selling items from major brands like Levoit, Yankee Candle, and Black+Decker. Many of Amazon’s top-selling products have over 10,000 five-star ratings from reviewers…

Though I still haven’t used saffron in my kitchen, I’ve since experimented with skin care products incorporating the ingredient. Not surprisingly, my favorites command triple-digit price tags, so imagine my surprise when I found a saffron-infused moisturizer for under $30.
