If you’re like us, you’ve probably wondered what everyday stuff famous people add to their carts — like hair spray or an electric toothbrush. We asked TV personality and Giggly Squad co-host Paige DeSorbo about the hair mask she uses during BravoCon, candles she gifts, and snacks she can’t live without.

I used to not drink that much water and would get headaches because of it. Finally, I got sick of hearing my boyfriend say, “Maybe you wouldn’t have a headache if you drank water,” so I bought a Stanley. I’ve had this for about a year now, and I’m never going back. Something about it makes me drink water all day long. I’m constantly filling it up. I feel like a fish. I don’t get headaches anymore, and it’s changed my skin.

I started using this during BravoCon a couple years ago. I did so many different looks with lots of heat that I needed something to help refresh my hair. It helps get it back to normal. Now, I use it on days when I need to look ready but don’t feel like doing my hair. I’ll do a slicked-back bun with it to keep everything in place and wash it out later. It’s one of the best hacks for that one day a week you just don’t feel like washing your hair.

I try to do “clean beauty” as much as I can. When I say that, I mean that I only do clean beauty for my body products, because I love all of the Osea line. Its stuff is so good, but the body butter is my favorite. It’s thicker than other lotions and keeps my skin moisturized all day. It’s my go-to after a full everything shower.

I’m a fan of the whole Face Reality line, but the moisturizer is my favorite. It’s lightweight but hydrating, and you can almost feel it working. It really seeps into your skin. I was on vacation with my dad recently, and he got a sunburn. I was like, “You need to moisturize, now.” He has never used a skin product in his life, and he could not stop talking about this. It was very affirming. This stuff is truly the best.

I first discovered the brand because of its pajama pants. I live in those. Then, I was on the hunt for a good T-shirt and found this. It is the best crop top for jeans and shorts. I layer with it too. It hits just below the belly button, so it’s perfect for that in-between crop and full-length shirt. I’ve been wearing these for about three years now and am constantly reordering because I literally wear them out.

These are the best inventions I’ve ever seen in my life. When I’m traveling every single weekend for Summer House, I’m packing snacks for the car. I am obsessed with olives, but I’m not going to carry around a glass jar. These are in a bag, so it’s easy to grab and go. They’re also just seasoned more than other ones I’ve tried. If there are multiple people in the car, we’re going through a whole bag of these.

This is another one of my favorite snacks. I’ve been eating them since I was little, and I still love them. They just have a nostalgic taste and feel to them. Whenever I’m missing home, I order these to snack on while I’m laying in bed.

I kept getting ads on this on TikTok, and finally just decided to get it. I was skeptical, but I’ve had mine for six months and the stickiness hasn’t gone away at all. It stays in place really well, too. There are certain tops where you need just a little lift, and it changes the whole look. It’s a game changer. I’m proud that TikTok got me on this one.

I just got a cat, and the litter box was really scary for me. It was an adjustment. I was like, I need something that’s on all day, so my place and my clothes don’t smell like a litter box. I got the Pura Diffuser, and it completely gets rid of any bad smells. I like switching up the scents, but my go-to is the fresh-linen one.

I love these candles. My favorite scent is the peony one. I also gift them all the time. They’re such a good housewarming gift. I like that they come in such a big size, because they make more of a statement than a normal-size candle. I actually just sent one to one of my girlfriends from high school who got engaged, and I engraved it to make it extra special.

I am a full Nespresso girl. I got one, and my whole kitchen revolves around it. The coffee is smoother and better. I actively go to bed thinking about my morning coffee. I even created my own little recipe, which involves hazelnut because I’m also obsessed with Nutella. I think everyone should have one, so I’ve gifted it to my brother, my assistant, probably a couple other people.
