Amazon editors' picks for fall seen on TODAY
It may not look like it, but the brand says there are 8,910 acupressure points on this mat and pillow. This acupressure technique provide a number of impressive benefits, too. By lying on it for 10 to 30 minutes a day, the brand claims that it will release endorphins, improve circulation and energy levels and even relax the muscles in the neck, back and feet.
Tupperware storage can be ... a nightmare. You can never seem to find the matching lids and they always tend to scatter everywhere. Brach says since lids are the hard part, this storage organizer easily and efficiently keeps your lids tidy. The dividers keep them where you want them, and there's no tools (or frustrations) needed!
According to the Pinterest Fall Trend Report, “women’s preppy outfits” is up more than 47,000% percent, and this style really shines while the US Open is in full swing. This short-sleeve knit top is the perfect transitional piece for fall, featuring a cable knit design and coming in over 25 colors.
If you have hooded or maturing eyes, Brach says you may be familiar with the struggle of eyeliner and mascara smudges. These swabs may look like your typical cotton swabs, but they're pre-filled with a makeup remover. All you need to do is snap the tip and dab the mishap. Plus, they're TSA-approved, making them perfect for traveling and on the go.
This Shop TODAY Beauty Awards-winning serum stick is packed with hydrating ingredients that your skin needs for fall, such as hyaluronic acid and ceramides. Its convenient stick format is mess-free and easy to travel with, says Brach. She also notes that one of our award testers (who is in her 80s) says this made her skin actually look younger.
To dress up an everyday outfit, Brach loves a chunky gold earring, especially this pick, which she calls a "modern take" on the classic gold hoop. Pavoi is a tried-and-true brand that's filled with affordable and hypoallergenic earrings, and made with sterling silver posts and 14-karat gold-plating.
For a bolder look, Brach suggests opting for this teardrop dangle earring, which our reviewers say is lightweight despite their size and won't weigh down your earlobe.
Men could always use a classic collared shirt, too. This option is also knit, which gives it an elevated touch for the fall.

Brach loves this clever and space-saving kitchen hack for its ease of use. Its silicone design fits on any pot or pan, allowing you to easily drain pasta or rice and wash fruits and vegetables. Plus, you can use both hands to hold the pot as you pour, which adds a level of safety. And if you’re not a fan of the traditional black color, this pick comes in a variety of shades, from red and mauve, to blue.
It's time to swap out your seasonal clothing and decor, and Shop TODAY editors swear by these durable moving bags. They're extremely functional, holding up to 50 pounds and have wrap-around, reinforced handles for easy maneuvering. Brach offers a pro shopping tip and suggests keeping a couple in your car: "You'll never know when you need a big bag for groceries or shopping trips!" she says.
"This is the fall version of my favorite summer hat," says Brach. "It instantly dresses up an outfit, or hides a bad hair day, and makes it look like you put in way more effort than you did."
She raves about its high-quality, wool-blend felt and says it looks good with any fall outfit, from a dress and boots to jeans and a sweater.
The upcoming season brings rain and snow, so you'll want to spray your favorite shoes with this Crep Protect Shoe Protector. According to the brand, the hydrophobic coating repels water and dirt and works on most materials, such as suede and leather. Brach even calls it "an invisible raincoat for your shoes."
If you have brittle or discolored nails, this one-and-done nail concealer does so much more than your typical polish. Not only does it act as a base, color and top coat, but the brand says it also works to neutralize yellow tones and provide strengthening effects, thanks to its botanical extracts.
Brach calls this hair tool a "gel packed in a tube" and loves it "for touching up ponytails, sleek half-ups, slicked-back buns and just taming those wild strands." This taming wand has a mascara-style wand that tackles rogue flyaways, while providing frizz-control for up to 24 hours, says the brand.

This nose mask forms a bubbling sensation to gently exfoliate your skin, providing clearer and smaller pores, says the brand. For the best results, the brand suggests using it two to three times a week.

No fall wardrobe is complete without a classic cardigan, and this option comes in nearly 40 colorways. We're also loving the scallop design, which gives it an extra chic touch and looks way more expensive than its current price tag.
Neutrogena just launched a brand new line filled with vitamin C products, and one worth noting is this Collagen Bank serum. According to the brand, it contains 15% pure vitamin C and 2% PHA (polyhydroxy acid) to exfoliate, target dark spots, and help promote collagen production.
This kitchen gadget quickly and safely shreds chicken, beef and pork in just a few seconds, says the brand. Plus, it comes with a scrubbing brush and is dishwasher safe, making it easy to clean.
One of the best things about fall? All of the fun seasonal candles that come with it. This lamp-style electric candle warmer is perfect for homes that can't use open flames, or just to help prolong your favorite candle. Not to mention, it'll look super cute on your end table.
