Amazon editors' picks seen on TODAY
Button Pins for Loose Jeans (Pack of 12)
Button Extenders for Tight Jeans (Pack of 12)
Sometimes pants need a little at-home adjusting to make them tighter or looser, and one editor found a trick that doesn't involve any sewing. Post says these pins are perfect for pants that fit in the hip and bum but gap in the waist, or even for securing rolled-up shirt sleeves. For jeans that are a bit too tight, there are also these extenders that fit over the original button and connect to the other end of the button slot, adding an extra 1 to 1.8 inches of extra room.
Purse Gummy Non-Slip Handbag Strap Solution (Pack of 6)
There's nothing more annoying than your purse slipping off your coat shoulder in winter. Enter: these undetectable strips. The grippy, peel-and-stick silicone problem-solver adheres to the underside of your bag strap so it stays concealed and creates friction to stop the slipping, explains Post. The brand says its purse gummy will adhere to almost any strap, from diaper bags to grocery totes and even leather handles without damaging your handbag.
It Cosmetics Bye Bye Dark Spots Concealer
Our editors love this lightweight, medium-coverage concealer because it acts as a double duty item, working as a makeup product and also as a serum. The formula is packed with skin care ingredients like hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and caffeine, which are known to help improve the appearance of bare skin over time. So while you're covering those dark spots, the serum also helps to fade them over time!
Tatcha The Rice Polish Classic
Our editors are obsessed with this splurge-worthy and travel-friendly exfoliator. Simply start with wet hands and face, pour a half teaspoon of the powder into your hands and rub together to create a creamy foam, then gently massage on your face for 15 seconds and rinse. While some exfoliators are abrasive and can make skin dry or irritated, Post thinks this one is great for winter since it leaves skin smooth and glowing.
Geedel Rotary Kitchen Grater Mandoline Slicer
This kitchen gadget makes cooking prep fast, fun and, most importantly, safe — because we’ve all had some type of mishap with the slicer or shredder that we’d rather not repeat. For under $30, this dishwasher-safe tool includes three blades for shredding, grating and slicing to cut through cheese, veggies and more.
“Using this is truly so easy — just add whatever you’re shredding to the top, crank the handle and your hands never come near the blade, thanks to the top loading device and stopper,” Post explains. “The suction at the bottom also ensures that this won’t slide around your counter!”
TODAY Loves Food: Recipes from America's Favorite Kitchen
A labor of love from right here in Studio 1A, this new cookbook brings together recipes from all over the TODAY family. Check out ideas from our hosts and food team, plus celebrity chefs like Ina Garten, Bobby Flay, Martha Stewart and more. The cookbook officially releases on April 29, 2025, but you can pre-order it now to secure your copy.

Covergirl Clean Fresh Yummy Plumper Gloss
Covergirl's bestselling lip gloss just got a plumping upgrade. The shiny, non-sticky formula recently expanded to two dozen shades, some of which have a slightly minty, plumping tingle that help give the look of fuller lips. Select shades are currently under $5, so now is a perfect time to give this affordable option a try.
Infinity Scarf with Hidden Zipper Pocket
Chic and warm winter accessories are the name of the game to get you through February, but this infinity scarf is also great for any upcoming spring travel. Thanks to a secret hidden zipper pocket, you can safely stow away your phone, keys, wallet and even passport, keeping your belongings close to the chest and out of pickpockets' reach.
CeraVe Eye Repair Cream
Looking for more hydration to get your skin through winter? This expert-recommended eye cream contains ceramides to help moisturize the delicate under-eye area. Plus, it reduces puffiness and fine lines to help make eyes look more awake.
The Handless Handle
Whether you're carrying groceries or washing dishes, your hands are usually occupied in the kitchen — which is why this "handless" handle attachment is so genius. The easy-to-install system creates a foot pull that attaches to drawers, bins, cabinets and more. Plus, the brand claims that it's non-damaging, so this hack is renter-friendly!

Say goodbye to stale snacks and freezer burn! With over 12,000 ratings, these neat bag sealers slide across the entire food storage bag to keep air and moisture out. They come color-coded in five sizes to seal everything from frozen veggies to kids' snacks, with zero sharp edges or weak springs.

These tumblers from this editor-loved brand were designed for on-the-go. The stainless steel insulated vessels feature a smooth sliding lid that locks shut for leak-proof transport and slides open to reveal a sipping spout. Plus, it fits in standard cupholders!
Dream Pairs Wide Calf Knee High Boots
One producer swears by these boots, which she says she has repurchased multiple times! The knee-high silhouette is designed to accommodate wide calves, with an inner zipper for easy on and off. The highly-rated boots come in a range of faux leather shades and whole and half sizes 5 to 12.
Faux Shearling Moto Jacket
Every outfit instantly looks fashionable when finished with this on-trend jacket. Available in an array of neutral colors, the stylish layer pairs effortlessly with jeans, leggings, dress pants and more.
