Feeling chilly? Turn up the temperature with this bestselling portable space heater. Thanks to its compact size, you can keep it under your desk or place it by your feet while you watch TV at home to warm up in seconds. As for safety, it has an innovative tilt-detection sensor that improves accuracy and reliability for better tip-over protection. “Great little heater,” wrote a satisfied shopper. “It’s small but works wonderfully. You can set the temperature and how long you want it on. It’s heating my living room —about 200 square feet — no problem. It heats up super fast. And it’s very quiet! So quiet that I’ve gone in to make sure it’s still on a couple of times.”

On a winter day, there’s nothing I love more than whipping up some cold-weather comfort dishes. This slow cooker comes courtesy of Drew Barrymore’s home goods line and has five pre-set functions for meat, poultry, stew, soup and chili. It’s large enough to feed seven people! “It works like a dream,” declared one happy home cook. “Very pretty. I made a roast in it and let it cook for 10 hours, and it came out extremely tender.”

As soon as the temperatures drop, the skin on my hands turns dry. Made with nourishing ingredients like vitamin E, Curel’s dermatologist-recommended long-lasting cream protects from dryness. It also lasts through three hand washes, so you don’t have to reapply it each time. “This hand lotion is a pleasant surprise! I am constantly looking for a lotion that will actually keep my very dry (and extremely picky and allergy-prone) skin moisturized. Nothing ever seems to work, but this lotion has been doing a great job at moisturizing and soothing my hands. It’s deep moisture while still not being greasy,” said a fan.

Bored? Test your creativity with this reverse coloring book. The book provides watercolor paintings, but there are no lines. Instead, you use a pen, marker, pencil or anything you can draw with to interpret each image and draw your own lines. “So addictive,” wrote a fan. “I am thoroughly obsessed with this! … Some pictures are obvious designs like flowers while others are more abstract so you decide what you want them to be! Looks so ‘professional’ when you finish. No artistic talent needed.”
