All The Lifestyle, Wellbeing & Experience Picks R29 Loved In April

At least once a week — let’s face it, at least once every day — the writers and editors across Refinery29 discuss the latest and greatest products in our lives, from some cool new water bottle that’s been absolutely saving our lives to a state-of-the-art sleep product that’s changed our eight hours for the better. And gatekeeping isn’t in our vocabulary, so we’re here to share the wealth and highlight our favorite products, just for you, each month.All linked products are independently selected by our editors.

For a mere moment, you’re taken on a culinary trip to the French Riviera. Their pièce de résistance? The signature Tomatini cocktail — delightful!  Image Courtesy of La Petite MaisonDisclaimer: I made the rookie mistake of putting my wine glasses in the dishwasher. Lesson officially learned. So, these Josephinenhütte wine glasses have entered my life and I LOVE them. I opted for the Josephine N° 3 style because red wine is the drink of choice in my household and for dinner parties, too. The glass is so light, so delicate and quietly luxurious. (And they’ll never see the inside of a dishwasher. Period.)  Josephinenhütte Josephine N° 3, $, available at JosephinenhütteImage Courtesy of JosephinenhütteFor so long I’ve been on the hunt for bag that does it all. One that not only looks gorgeous, but also fits my work laptop, my workout clothes and the rest of my stuff. Who wants to carry multiple bags on their morning commute? Not me. This buttery leather Verafied bag has become my go-to staple and I have a feeling it's going to last me a very long time, too.  Verafied Verafied Black Club Bag, $, available at VerafiedImage Courtesy of VerafiedNot to sound overly British, but is there anything better than a slice of toast with a cup of tea? This is why I decided my two-slice toaster needed an upgrade — and I was right. This ProCook four-slice stainless steel style is just perfect on my kitchen worktop. It looks shiny and gorgeous, and it makes life easier when you have guests staying, too.  ProCook ProCook Stainless Steel Long Slot Toaster, $, available at ProCookImage Courtesy of PrecookJacqueline Kilikita, Beauty DirectorImage Courtesy of Jacqueline KilikitaI’ve always wanted to make the pilgrimage to Frida Kahlo’s Mexico City home, but it’s not in the budget right now. This Rizzoli book is the next best thing. Written by her close family, it’s a rich collection of her personal belongings — from early sketches to jewelry and clothing — not to mention the infamous taxidermy butterfly display. It’s one of those coffee table books that looks beautiful on display, but you’ll find yourself returning to it again and again. Barnes & Noble Casa Kahlo, $, available at Barnes and NobleImage Courtesy of Barnes & NobleI’d been dealing with some neck and back issues — which I’m fairly sure were down to my marshmallow-soft pillow — and a chiropractor friend suggested I try a crescent-shaped design instead. This has been a game changer. My neck and back feel properly supported, sleep is more comfortable, and I’m no longer waking up stiff. I love it. Blissy Adjustable Crescent Pillow, $, available at NordstomImage Courtesy of NordstromVictoria Montalti, Senior Fashion Commerce Writer Image Courtesy of Victoria MontaltiWhen I interviewed people on their festival period experiences at Coachella, I also got to test out these Always’ Flexfoam pads in pocket-sized wrappers. I prefer pads over tampons when possible, but hate bulky pads, so I was eager to try these. I really appreciated that despite its tiny packaging (which effortlessly fit in my pocket) it offers a lot of coverage, and despite its super thin material, I didn't experience any leaks during the long festival days.  Always Always Pocket Flexfoam Pads, $, available at AmazonImage Courtesy of AmazonDawnie Jefferson, Production & Editorial CoordinatorI have been saying I wanted to return to a house phone for years. Last July, I ordered this Physical Phone from Instagram, which turns my iPhone into a “landline”, and was worried it would never come. I got it in the mail about two weeks ago, and I'm obsessed with it. I feel an instant amount of nostalgia when I use it. It rings like a real phone, and the best part is it has a dial tone! Physical Physical The Handset, $, available at PhysicalImage Courtesy of Physical PhoneKarina Hoshikawa, Senior Beauty Writer I’ve gone through several bottles of this laundry detergent, and keep coming back to it even after trying other brands. It’s gentle on my more delicate
