But first: this $3 high school-era holy grail

EDITOR'S NOTE

We’ve talked a lot about brand comebacks in the last six months. The latest (and equally shocking) one? Lands’ End. I just bought this $40 tote bag for upcoming summer travel, and I like that it isn’t as stiff as L.L.Bean’s Boat and Tote. Not to mention, Lands’ End is pretty much always having a sale (right now, it’s offering up to 60% off select styles sitewide). Call me crazy, but I’m currently eyeing:

The 411 on wearing and buying jewelry when you have sensitive skin

Our editor talked with a board-certified derm about where to shop and how to treat jewelry-induced flare-ups.

Honest Company skincare

We stand by the fact that The Honest Company's baby-friendly body-care is equally as good for adults. In fact, our editor has used up countless bottles of this calming bodywash because it’s inexpensive, safe enough for her eczema-prone skin, and smells like a spa. From now until May 11, save 20% off select skincare and baby personal care products, excluding bundles. The deal will automatically apply to your cart.

Take Note

Delta Beverage

Warmer weather means more time spent with a beverage in hand. Our latest obsession: These THC-based seltzers from Delta Beverage that provide a subtle buzz you won’t feel the next day. They have three different options in 5, 10, and 20 mg, though if you’re new to drinking a THC-based seltzer, 5 mg is an ideal place to start. Whether you’re looking for a nonalcoholic option or want to carve out a moment of relaxation for yourself, check out our latest favorites (that we also think would make great gifts for Mother’s Day):
