29 Best Sellers Refinery29 Readers Adored In January

New year, same ol' monthly rifle through our anonymous shopping data to find readers' top-bought items of the past 30 days. The only prominent difference, as per usual, is the product picks. And, based on these January buys, our readers are gearing up for an organized, good-smelling, orgasmic, and cozy 2023.

We saw a small batch of New Year's resolution purchases: vegan cookbooks, sweat-wicking sports bras, rose-steeped surface cleaners, and more self-improvement products. But, those reasonable picks got caught up in the mix of funky dining chairs, meticulous sex toys, and $80 bronzing serums that also topped January's charts. A few new and notables snuck their way into this month's roundup as well — Dirty Labs might just be the new status laundry detergent while Caraa's poofy weekender could dethrone the Beís duffle for most popular travel bag. Alas, we're not here to forecast 2023 new hottest shopping trends. We're here to showcase January's best-selling products according to Refinery29 readers like we do every month. So without further ado, revel in the 29 most-wanted and adored gems ahead.

At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. All product details reflect the price and availability at the time of publication. If you buy or click on something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.

Angry Orange Odor Eliminator


In January we conducted an all-out investigation on how to actually make your home smell good (that's not just lighting a candle or two). Angry Orange's effective odor eliminator made its way into a great deal of readers' carts — blame it on the concentrated formula, sweet citrus scent, or 72,000+ 5-star Amazon reviews.

Dior Addict Lip Glow Oil


Ask any Gen Z about Dior and the word "clothing" won't even make an appearance. Instead, the younger generation is all about the fashion house's beauty products — specifically, the TikTok-famous Lip Glow Oil that nourishes while enhancing your lips' natural color.

Shop Nordstrom

Dirty Labs Signature Scent Bio-Liquid Laundry Detergent


What started out as a simple Instagram ad has since transformed into our senior writer Karina Hoshikawa's new favorite laundry soap.

Dirty Labs' detergent checks all of the boxes: gentle on sensitive skin (thank you, bio-based ingredients), aromatic, and affordable.

Love it and already bought the matching ottoman."

Serta At Home Leighton Task Chair


For those who dread getting out of bed for work in the morning, we may have found a solution.

A few highlights: long-lasting charge, waterproof materials, a soft bendable tip, figure-eight rhythmic oscillation, and more.

The Ordinary Multi-Peptide Eye Serum 15ml


The age-old question still stands: What are eye serums and creams if not simply glorified overpriced moisturizers? In order to see if The Ordinary's radically affordable $25 serum beats these glorified-moisturizer allegations, we tested it on a handful of Refinery29 Shopping team members' under-eyes. The serum's hydrating properties, light texture, and dewy results made us give it a collective stamp of approval.
