Truly we're the ones to blame. In September we shopping team members glazed our lips in fruity, peptide-rich formulas, tested formidable sex toys aplenty, and declared a crochet sour cucumber an excellent cheer-up gift. Not only that, but we rounded up bewitching fall candles, perfect lounge-around-the-house bralettes, Barbie-pink serums, and, of course, fall wardrobe staples. So, scratch that — let us revel in the fact that R29 editors and readers are all on the same eccentric page when it comes to online shopping. Don't believe us? Then scroll on ahead for these 29 September bestsellers. Many are kooky, a few are practical — regardless, they're all worth carting.
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. If you buy something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.
A new month, a new Refinery29 Shopping Team Skims review. We're absolutely hooked on the Kardashian-founded lifestyle brand's cozy offerings, from its TikTok-viral dresses to cotton jersey underwear. In September, two R29 editors slipped on three different Skims bralettes. And let's just say, they're worth carting. Our Affiliate Writer Victoria Montalti writes, "From first glance, this triangle bralette seemed to be the perfect lounge-around-the-house bra, and it proved to be just that."

Purple RestorePremier™ Mattress
This medium-soft hybrid mattress provides uninterrupted snoozes for any and all side and back sleepers. According to one Purple reviewer, the bestselling cushion "has shortened [their] healing and recovery time from constant ranching and work injuries."
No surprise that it made quite the popular pick from our reader-favorite mattress round-up.

Pact PureFit Crossover Legging
Pact's PureFit Collection is a stretchy, soft, and comfy oasis. The R29 Shopping Team tested a few of these sustainable staples (each style saves up to 38 gallons of water) and were quite pleased with our findings. Our Affiliate Coordinator Becca Sax is adding the skort to her weekly rotation. "I’m wearing it on dog walks, shopping trips, and just around my apartment — nowhere is off limits," she writes.
Anthropologie perfected the art of stylish storage with its gorgeous cabinet. Albeit a big investment, this bestselling home decor and clutter solution combo can't be beat.

Free People Lotus Set
Thanks to our Deals Writer Mercedes Viera, you can now run to Refinery29 every Friday for the inside scoop on the best weekend sales. Last week they spotted this Free People gem hanging on the retailer's virtual clearance rack. Flaunt its lovely silhouette at weddings, dinner parties, and any social gatherings that call for elevated casual attire.

Jenni Kayne Saturday Sweatpant
We agree with Jenni Kayne, Saturdays are for sweatpants — especially when they're crafted from ultra-soft French terry fabric and chic enough to run a few errands in.
HandmadeCrochetUnion Emotional Support Pickle Crochet Kit, $, available at Etsy
PinkCherry Happy Little Sucker
We'll put it this way, The Happy Little Sucker is the cordless Dyson vacuum of sex toys. Our Sex Writer Charlotte Lewis gave it a whirl in September and heeds an (enticing?) warning in her in-depth review, "Even on its lowest intensities, it is strong."
PinkCherry Happy Little Sucker, $, available at PinkCherry
Rhode Strawberry Glaze Peptide Lip Treatment
We said it once and we'll say it again. The devil works hard, but Rhode's product development team works harder. Last month the brand instantly jumped on the Strawberry Girl bandwagon with a new juicy Strawberry Glaze... flavor? Colorway? Both? Whatever the label, just know that Refinery29 readers, reviewers, and even R29 editors, can't get enough of Hailey Bieber's moisturizing Peptide Lip Treatment.

Quince Revive Nylon Large Tote
It's time to get to work...with the help of Quince's top-bought commuter tote. We crowned it "the perfect blend of spaciousness and sophistication" in September — based off the influx of Refinery29 reader buys, our statement is legitimate.
Quince Revive Nylon Large Tote, $, available at Quince
Trumiri The Moon Incense Cones
Head to Amazon for Trumiri's calming incense kit. One box includes 12 packets of cones as well as an incense holder. Amazon reviewer Eden raves, "These are so fragrant and each box conveniently comes with a mini incense burner tray."
TRUMIRI The Moon Incense Cones, $, available at Amazon
The Ordinary Soothing & Barrier Support Serum
The affordable, cult-favorite skincare brand The Ordinary was all about skin barriers in September. If you love a healthy barrier — aka a balanced and glowy complexion — then check out the brand's Barbie-pink formula. Our Senior Writer Karina Hoshikawa tested it for two weeks and now "[her] skin feels touchably softer, smoother, and just happier in general."

Barefoot Dreams CozyChic™ Ultra Lite® Open Front Cardigan
There's only one thing that Refinery29 readers love more than Nordstrom: a Nordstrom discount. Barefoot Dreams' fall-perfect cardigan was the star of our Nordstrom deals round-up last month and for good reason. It features cozy ribbed fabric, a versatile silhouette, and a 31%-off price tag.

Maude Vibe
Ph.D., certified sex therapist, Lelo sexpert, and author of Becoming Cliterate and A Tired Woman’s Guide to Passionate Sex Laurie Mintz tells Refinery29 that "the clitoris is the most important organ for pleasure." Therefore, we declare that a clitorally mind-blowing sex toy is not a want but a need. Whether you're new to self-pleasure or want a new toy to play with, you can't go wrong with Maude's sleek and beginner-friendly vibe — we're talking a flutter tip point for precise stimulation and a wider base for broader vibes.
September's most popular Lululemon purchase came straight out of the beloved brand's new fall collection. If you're all about quiet luxury like the rest of TikTok, Lululemon's wide range of classy trousers is a must-see.
Lululemon Utilitech Relaxed Mid-Rise Trouser 7/8 Length, $, available at Lululemon
Womanizer Starlet Snow
Our Sex & Wellness writer Charlotte Lewis gave Womanizer's tiny-but-mighty vibe its flowers back in May — but according to our anonymous shopping data, the Starlet is craving a little autumn limelight. Blame it on its four escalating suction levels, under-$50 price tag, and/or any of its many enticing features; readers are once again carting it like crazy.
We normally run to Violette_Fr for bold, decadent lip shades, but September was all about the French beauty brand's unique primer. Apply the silky formula to blemishes before make up application for a smooth barrier — not only does it protect pimples from bacteria, but it also supports flawless make up application.
Violette_Fr Invisible Bandage, $, available at Violette_Fr
Element Jewelry Sunshine Polishing Cloth
Element Jewelry is home to the perfect polishing cloth for engagement rings, according to our Senior Writer Karina Hoshikawa, that is. In September, she noted that the buttery soft cloth "restored [her] mildly tarnished band to gleaming, brilliant perfection." $7 well spent.

HoneyWoodLand Personalized Wedding Place Table Cards
Refinery29's Editor Hannah Rimm threw an illustrious wedding oozing with rustic elegance last month — and, according to Hannah, these laser cut name cards were "the creme de la creme of [her] table settings." Planning a wedding of your own? Give 'em a try and you're bound to wow at least a few guests.

Nouveaux Maxi Vest
Every month Nuuly subscribers get six picks from the rental site's vast and stylish wardrobe. Take this oversized vest, for example — it features cozy cable knit, a comfy silhouette, and a dashing preppy aesthetic.
Bamboo bath mats aren't necessarily a norm, but apparently they should be. " Not only does it instantly elevate my humble apartment bathroom’s aesthetic, but it’s also ended the vicious cycle of throwing out and repurchasing bath mats," Senior Writer Karina Hoshikawa raves. Tired of moldy plush mats? It's time to go bamboo.

PB Teen Grove Sleeper Sofa
For hostesses with the mostesses, fall is all about holiday guest prep. If you're already gearing up for an influx of folks in your home, may we introduce you to PB Teen's Grove Sleeper Sofa. While it's technically for teens, its 73.5-inch-long extended bed and 54.5-inch-wide base make it the perfect adult sleeper couch for small spaces. Skip the blow-up mattress and add this seat to your space for this holiday, and the next one, and the next one... you get the point.

Flaire & Co. Adjustable Pearl Ring
Both water-safe and adjustable, this quaint pearl accessory is an instant add-to-cart. Or, at least our Associate Affiliate Writer Victoria Montalti thinks so. "This previously sold-out ring was my go-to throughout the summer when I was in and out of the water and when my fingers swelled from salty treats," she writes. "Because of the adjustable design, I can even wear them on each of my fingers without stretching them out."
Adidas Gazelle Sneaker (Women), $, available at Nordstrom
Yankee Candle Witches' Brew
If you're chronically online like many of us, you know Halloween season starts on October September 1st. Add Yankee Candle's bewitching wax to your home for an extra-spooky oomph this fall. But it's not just decor, it's also a rousing concoction of patchouli and woodsy aromas.
Yankee Candle Witches' Brew, $, available at Yankee Candle
J.Crew New Daphne Topcoat In Italian Boiled Wool
Take 30% off this J.Crew cold-weather wardrobe staple with the code SALETIME. According to J.Crew's on-site description, it's back and better than ever just in time for fall.

Missha Time Revolution The First Essence Serum
Our Affiliate Fashion Writer Vivien Lee recommends that any and all desperate for radiant skin add this to their skincare routines. And in September, plenty of Refinery29 took her word for it.
