Grab these Chelsea boots for the fall while they're over 70% off — and get them fast. This is one of Amazon's Lightning Deals of the day, which means there are a limited number of boots available at this price today. Once they're gone, the price goes back! The slip-on style has a slip-resistant, rubber sole and comes in a range of suede and leather colors.

"Obsessed with these boots," wrote one reviewer. "Comfortable, not super heavy, good quality and they are super cute. Perfect pair for fall and you can't beat the price."

This iPad has been around for close to three years, but its technology is still top-of-the-line. Get it while it's on sale for its lowest price ever. It features a liquid retina display with True Tone technology that adjusts to the color temperature of the room, making viewing easy in any light. Shoppers especially love how fast it is. Its A13 bionic chip delivers powerful performance, whether you're watching movies, gaming or finally writing that term paper. Plus, it offers up to 10 hours of steady battery life.

"You can’t go wrong with a 9th Generation iPad these days," said one recent buyer. "It’s fast, smooth and has a big high-quality screen and camera. Highly recommend anybody to buy this without having to spend [thousands] on a newer generation iPad. Five out of five stars!"

"Incredible value," said another. "I purchased this model of iPad two years ago, along with an Apple Pencil for digital note-taking. I paid around $340 and thought it was worth it then ... I've found the screen size and resolution to be more than good enough for enjoying YouTube videos, movies, manga, etc. while still being a comfortable size to take with you. It's a nice middle ground between a phone and something more substantial like a laptop or TV. As for the age of this model, I have found that the processor and storage are sufficient for my use cases. No stuttering or loading at all."

When it comes to celebs who don't seem to age, Martha Stewart is at the top of our list. One thing she's done to delay signs of aging includes decades of facials at Mario Badescu's skincare salon. In fact, her facialist shared the star's go-tos, and one major step in her routine is this face mask, which you can try for only $16 (down from $20) at Amazon.

"This tightened my skin and got rid of the bags under my eyes," marveled one shopper. "It takes a week to start seeing results, but it really does work and is 100% worth the money."

If you want an affordable, reliable pair of earbuds, more than 20,000 Amazon shoppers rave about this pair. They offer 10 hours of battery life on a single charge and 30 hours with the charging case. If you forget to charge them and they're low on power, a quick 10 minutes in the case will give you two hours of listening time — not bad! And they're 50% off.

"Pretty much everything I want in a pair of earphones at this price point," wrote one reviewer. "The audio is clear, crisp and high-quality considering the price. The battery life leaves nothing to be desired ... The fit was good for me — I haven't had any issues with earphones falling out, or sore ears. They charge quickly too, I have no complaints on that front."

Charge all of your most-used tech at once! This 3-in-1 wireless charging station can charge most Apple iPhones, AirPods and Apple watches simultaneously. Just plug it in and leave it out on your nightstand, kitchen counter, or entryway so your devices are nearby and ready to go when you need them. 

"My wife bought this charging station for me for Father’s Day. I love it," said a fan. "I put it on my nightstand next to the bed and was able to get rid of my multiple chargers. I love the sleek black look and compact size and not having to deal with the mess of charging cables and the limitations of the length of my old charging cables."

With an eyeshadow stick, anyone and everyone is good at it because it’s so easy. These creamy eyeshadow sticks come in a wide range of colors and simply glide on, blend with a brush or your fingertips and stay put for hours and hours — at least, that’s what over 31,000 Amazon shoppers claim.

"It glides on easily and blends easily, yet stays where I put it," shared one beauty novice. "I'm a klutz when it comes to eye makeup, but this is super easy to use and looks great. So far I have the Taupe and the Copper Shimmer and intend to buy lots more shades."

Looking for a new pair of walking sneakers? Allbird's sustainable Tree Dasher 2 has a lightly padded heel collar to help support and lock your ankle in place. It's anything but stiff, though — the midsole is flexible for long strolls, jogs or circuit training.

"My new shoes, fit by an Allbirds salesperson, needed to be a half-size larger than my usual size," noted one shopper. "They're amazing, my podiatrist was impressed, and the top of my foot pain is greatly improved."

You may have heard that skinny jeans are out and wide-leg pants are in. Of course, you can keep your leggings, but these stretchy lounge pants are a good way to try the wide-leg style at home. They're super soft, have a wide, comfy waistband and a flattering cut that helps elongate your legs. Grab a pair on sale in black or choose from 23 other colors. 

"Love these pants! They are incredibly comfortable, yet nice enough to dress up with a long cardigan," explained one shopper. "I've received many compliments on them, and several friends have asked where they can buy the same ones. The wide-leg design is both flattering and comfortable, making them perfect for lounging, yoga, or even a casual day out."

Thinning hair? After publicly sharing her post-COVID hair-loss story via video on Twitter, actress Alyssa Milano found the help she needed within a few bottles. She praises Nioxin products (and Nutrafol supplements too!) for helping "tremendously" with hair loss. And she's not alone: These products have found fans in shoppers who say the treatments have helped curb their own hair loss and revitalized their manes. 

"Great for thinning hair," gushed a satisfied shopper. "I love this brand, and for thin hair, it's wonderful; smells amazing and helps [with] my hair growth and thickness. If you have never used Nioxin, you should!"

Fall is approaching! If you've already ordered your first pumpkin spice latte and can't wait to bust out your UGG boots, grab this flannel shacket (shirt/jacket) on sale at Amazon. It comes in a range of plaid prints and looks great over leggings or with jeans. 

"I’m a huge flannel girl and this one did not disappoint," wrote a five-star fan. "I love the look and fabric of this flannel and can't wait to wear it in the fall. It's not as thick as some of my other flannels, but it will still keep you warm because the material is still on the thicker side."
