A weekly guide to what you might want to buy, try, do, or at least look into.
Actually Good Things is a weekly email newsletter that goes out every Friday morning, written by longtime commerce writer, product tester, and shopping editor, Theresa Holland.
Each letter is full of product recommendations, honest assessments, and modern musings from someone who’s tried and tested countless items.
Theresa is keenly familiar with today’s best offerings in the beauty, wellness, lifestyle, home, consumer tech, and travel categories.
Each week, you’ll get things like:
Cool (but not too trendy) clothing recs
Skincare suggestions that won’t break the bank
Housewares to elevate your space
The best SPFs in the whole wide world
Research-backed supplements
Cultural commentary
Books and articles worth reading
Every new post goes directly to your email inbox. Subscribe to get the newsletter as soon as it drops each week, and consider upgrading to paid access bonus content.
Theresa is a freelance contractor available for new writing, editing, and product-testing opportunities.
