Shop All Day: Editors' Picks

Koopala Wall Sconces

Whether you want to add some accent lighting to your bedroom or need a hands-free reading light at your desk or bedside, Brach says these stylish sconces are key. They’re wireless and don’t require any hardware for installation, which makes them great for renters. You can adjust the angle of the light or even remove it from the mount to use as a flashlight, says the brand. Plus, they can last up to 15 hours on a full charge.

Peter Thomas Roth Instant Lip Filler

After seeing the results from Peter Thomas Roth's viral eye treatment, the Shop TODAY team was excited to see this new debut from the brand. Don't let its name fool you, though, it's a topical product that can smooth, plump and fill out your lips — no needles involved.

Julep Green Tea Konjac Face Sponge

Exfoliation can pose benefits for your skin care and makeup routines, according to experts we’ve spoken to. This tool can help make the process easier, since it is made with bamboo and charcoal powder. Commerce editor and producer Julie Ricevuto says it is “super easy to use.” According to the brand, you only need to dampen it and massage your face in a circular motion to use it.

Everyday Solutions Spray Bottle Paper Towel Holder

Where has this genius find been all of our lives? Brach found this 2-in-1 paper towel holder that functions as a stand and a spray bottle. Reviewers love that it makes storing your glass cleaner less of an eyesore and that it is "so handy."

Albayrak Dish Soap Dispenser and Sponge Holder

Another 2-in-1 find we can't get enough of? This sponge holder that doubles as a soap dispenser. One Shop TODAY staffer tried it three years ago — and it's remained a staple in her kitchen ever since. You simply fill the bottom portion with your preferred detergent and then press down to disperse the perfect portion of soap, every time. Once you're done washing dishes, you can leave your sponge in the tray to let it air dry.

Wet & Forget Shower Cleaner

If you're like us, you don't want to waste time scrubbing every crevice in your shower. One writer tried this spray that removes buildup and stains practically overnight, and was pleased with the results. "Now that I’m satisfied with my tub and the stains are way less noticeable, I’m going to use the cleaning solution once a week as recommended," she said.

Jason Markk Shoe Protector Spray

Plan on wearing your favorite pair of white sneakers into the fall? Brach loves this stain- and liquid-repelling spray that can help keep them clean in spite of unpredictable weather.

Drybar Detox Thickening Dry Shampoo for Thinning Hair

Commerce editor and producer Julie Ricevuto loves this dry shampoo for a myriad of reasons; primarily for the volume it delivers. "My hair is pretty flat and can be oily so I love dry shampoo," she said. "This one gives my hair a voluminous boost & lets me extend my blowout!"

Ricevuto also loves this thickening shampoo and conditioner duo for fuller hair. "While I love the long-term benefits of this duo, the way my hair looks immediately after using them is a major draw for me, too," she said, noting that she noticed instant volume and "smoother strands" after using it.

Shaperx Sculpting Bodysuit

Production coordinator Camryn Privette tried this sculpting bodysuit and said it complemented her figure and didn't feel like an uncomfortable piece of shapewear. "My curves were giving me an hourglass figure that I didn’t know I had in me," she said.

Essence Lash Princess Mascara

Don't let the $5 price tag fool you — this mascara is a consistent No. 1 bestseller on Amazon. One former Shop TODAY editor says it makes her lashes look so full and lifted, they almost look like falsies.
