Group games to play on video calls, a cozy Schitt's Creek sweatshirt, a super secure and comfy face mask, and more things we (the BuzzFeed Shopping team) are into right now.

1. A cozy (under-$20!) Rose Apothecary sweatshirt that's truly perfect for all your lounging needs, including starting Schitt's Creek over again from the beginning, because why not?





"Schitt's Creek has been one of my favorite shows for years. So a couple of weeks ago, I decided to treat myself and buy this ah-mazing sweatshirt! The moment I saw it, I knew it was a perfect reminder of one of my favorite shows. The sweatshirt itself is super soft and warm. It's got nice fuzz on the inside. And the logo on the outside really does look like the real thing. When the sweatshirt arrived, it did have a bit of a smell from the printing, but I just threw it in the laundry right away, and it was gone. I've been wearing it around the house multiple days a week, even during team meetings, and everyone loves it. guarantee I wore it during the finale while holding a box of tissues and sobbing." —Abby Kass
Get it from KatLivesMatter on Etsy for $19.99+ (available in men's sizes S–3XL and six colors).

2. A jar of Stonewall Kitchen Roasted Garlic Aioli for dipping basically 90% of your food in, because it adds a creamy, garlicky, umami-ish oomph to every bite. It's time to upgrade your everyday grilled cheese, baked chicken, steamed veggies, and other staple homemade foods with a little bit of this tasty condiment.

condiment.
"This aioli is a combo of creamy mayo + slow roasted garlic + the teensiest hint of mustard, giving it a rich, umami-esque flavor with a perfect amount of tang that pairs well with pretty much all non-dessert foods — a true life hack of a condiment for anyone who has no idea how to cook, but is determined to live a lie in lockdown. The running list of things I have consumed this god-tier condiment on during lockdown includes and is not limited to *deep breath*: baked chicken, grilled cheese, an egg, Parmesan-crusted potatoes (yes, I do love myself a carbohydrate), asparagus, a baked potato, a pork chop, a salad, and air. And if you, unlike me, know how to create food that has more than four ingredients, you can get ~creative~ with it." —Emma Lord
Get it from Stonewall Kitchen for $7.95.
3. A pair of green and pink socks because they'll make you crack -tus a smile every time you look down at your toes.

"I have this pair and they are super soft and snuggly! The colors are nice and vibrant, and they look good poking out of a pair of boots." —Bek O'Connell
Get them from Woven Pear for $15.
4. The MyLife app (formerly known as Stop, Breathe and Think) app, which features meditations, reminders, and other easy to use tools to help you find a sense of calm when you feel anything but.

"I have been using the Stop, Breathe and Think app for years now. It's really helped me on days where the inside of my head feels extra chaotic. It's very simple to use and will help you stop your inner-monologue from rattling off your to-do list when you're trying to get some sleep." —Heather Braga
Get it from the Apple App store or Google Play for free (with in-app subscriptions available starting at $4.91/month).
5. A non-medical fabric face mask from Reformation because they're relatively comfortable, tie at the back for a fit that's more secure than some of the elastic options out there, and come in a surprise fabric that might just be the same print as one of the brand's cute dresses.

They're machine washable, tumble-dry low, and ship for free!
"A lot of masks are made with elastic that goes around your ears, but these masks are made with tie strings. TBH, I dig it — it's more of a secure, personalized fit, so you don't have to adjust it while you're walking. It's nice and cool on your face — double-layered for protection, but not so thick that it isn't breathable. You get a ~surprise~ fabric — you might end up with all five masks in the same print (like I did), or with a whole bunch of mismatched prints. The only caveat: these aren't made with a pocket for a filter; that said, you could easily pair it on top of a filter for extra coverage.
I have been all over the internet looking at mask options the past few weeks, and for a basic, non-medical face covering that gets the job done, this $5 price point — on top of the free shipping — gets you the most bang for your buck." —Emma Lord
Get them from Reformation: a set of five masks for $25 (limit two sets of masks per customer), or a set of 250 masks for $1,250. You can also donate a set of five masks for $25. And all orders ship free!

6. A super soft, seamless, stretchy T-back bralette so the thought of a restrictive underwire bra doesn't even have to cross your mind even once as you lounge around on the couch. And it's supportive enough that you can quickly run an errand without having to change.
