Style Edit Root Touch-Up Powder
If you're overdue for a touch-up, this powder can help hold you over until you make it to the salon. Brach says her hairstylist used it on her to touch-up her gray hairs and she's been "obsessed" ever since. The powder can also be used on overgrown roots and thinning hair and comes in 10 different shades that range from brown to blonde and red.
Bio-Oil Moisturizing Body Lotion
While this brand is known for its tried-and-true body oil, they recently took their beloved product a step further by making it into a lotion. Brach has been using it for a year and says it's lightweight and packed with hydrating ingredients that help keep your skin hydrated — and even said it helped reduce the appearance of stretch marks after she had her daughter.
Jason Markk Shoe Cleaning Essentials Kit
If you're breaking out your white sneakers again for fall, they might need some sprucing up.

Dryel At-Home Dry Cleaner Starter Kit
If you frequent the dry cleaners, you know that those trips can add up. This kit is a fix that can not only help save you some time and money, but can help keep your nicer items in the clean condition that you want them in. According to the brand, all you have to do is spot treat your items with the pen, place them into the bag along with a special cleaning cloth and then let them tumble dry on medium for 15-20 minutes so the steam can get to work. Then, you take them out and head out the door.
Zulay Kitchen Silicone Utensil Rest
While you may already have a spoon rest sitting in your kitchen, Brach says this isn't your average utensil rest. It can hold up to four utensils at once, is dishwasher safe and is large enough to catch drips and spills that most spoon rests can't. It also comes in a range of colors, so you can choose one that best complements your kitchen.
