These 17 bestsellers are must-haves for winter — and start at $8

These are the viral, tried-and-true and essential items shoppers loved in January.

We're almost a month into the new year, which means winter is in full swing, and the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics are now less than two weeks away. If you've been following any of the inspiring stories of the Team USA athletes headed to the games, you might be inspired to set some goals of your own right now — or stay away from the chill and cozy up inside for once.

But cold weather doesn't always require drastic changes — the season can be as simple as enhancing your eating habits or switching up your skin care routine. These little changes can add up to something big, regardless of your goals.

So, we scoured Amazon for bestselling finds that can help make it easier to get it all done or just get through winter. Shop TODAY editorial director Adrianna Brach stopped by TODAY to share the picks that are, in our book, gold medal-worthy. Keep reading to see the shopper-approved favorites for your kitchen, beauty routine and more.
