The best of what our editors tried in April!
Jenny Chang / BuzzFeed
The BuzzFeed Life editors are always trying new products, apps, tips, and DIY projects, and we decided it was time to start sharing the best of them with you. Each month, we'll post our recommendations for what's actually worth it. For the sake of transparency, items under "Things We Bought" were purchased with our own money and/or were not the result of a PR pitch. Those under "Things We Tried" are items that were provided to us at no cost for the sake of review. Let us know in the comments what sorts of things you'd like us to review next month!
Merona liner socks — $3 a pair
I know most people don't put a ton of thought into their socks, but these little guys are legitimately one of the most exciting purchases I've made this year. For the low price of $3, they turn shoes that were mostly comfortable into nothing short of fucking magical. (Plus they keep your shoes from getting gross.) Target.com doesn't have the exact pair I bought in the store (I went with the 100% cotton ones) but these are similar. If you just go to the sock department in the store, you will find plenty of options; the ones labeled "liners" are the kind that will actually be invisible with typical flats. (Meanwhile, the ones labeled "socks" offer more coverage and are good for sneakers.) When I first put the liners on with my loafers, they still showed on the sides of my feet a bit, so I just scrunched the sides down a little and then popped my pinkie toes out so they'd stay in place. Easy! As someone who frequently goes barefoot in her shoes, I feel like I've wasted the best years not having liner socks. —Rachel Wilkerson Miller
