It’s the last month of 2025, and we’ve just finished counting all of your Facebook likes and shares for our 2025 features across all our categories. While there were a number of interesting items, here are your top 10… drum role please…

1. Essence Nasal Diffusers
   • Our top pick goes to the Essence Nasal Diffusers, a clever new way to make aromatherapy truly portable! Essence Nasal Diffusers are tiny, nearly invisible silicone rings that sit comfortably at the base of your nose, delivering just-right scents in blends like stress relief, energy, and rest easy. They’re reusable, easy to refresh with a few drops of essential oil, and perfect for on-the-go moments—whether you’re hitting the gym, powering through work, or winding down for sleep.
2. Outdoor Vitals Shadowlight Carbon 60 Backpack
   • Lightweight meets rugged adventure with the Outdoor Vitals Shadowlight Carbon 60 Backpack, an ultralight (under 2 pounds!) yet incredibly durable pack loaded with smart features like multiple accessible pockets, high-tech fabrics, clever drainage holes, and dual access to the roomy main compartment. Add in the Carbon Flex Suspension system—with carbon fiber stays, a wrap-around hip belt, and a cushy back panel—and you’ve got a remarkably comfortable, adventure-ready pack worthy of all your TrailblazerGirl escapades.
3. Ceptics 5 in 1 Universal Travel Adapter
   • Stay powered up anywhere with the compact Ceptics 5 in 1 Universal Travel Adapter, which charges up to five devices at once through its input socket, two USB-A ports, two USB-C ports, and a super-handy built-in retractable USB-C cable. With slide-out plugs for use in 200+ countries, overload protection with a replaceable fuse, and a 65-watt max output, it’s a smart, travel-ready essential for every TrailblazerGirl.
4. Geekey
   • The Geekey is a remarkably compact, key-sized multitool with more than 16 functions—think bottle opener, wire stripper, serrated edge, wrench, screwdriver tips, and more—all in a lightweight, 0.77-ounce design that easily clips to your keys or pack. TSA-compliant and adventure-ready, it really is “an entire toolbox in a single key”.
5. Tomboy Wanderlust Wipes
   • The closest thing to a shower without the water, Tomboy’s new Wanderlust Wipes are 3.5″ oval pads infused with shea butter, winterbloom, and vitamin E, offering a refreshing orange–sandalwood–frankincense–myrrh scent while cleansing, toning, and hydrating in one go. Perfect for freshening up after sweaty trails, tough gym sessions, or long travel days, these wipes continue the streak of TrailblazerGirl-approved goodness from this beloved family-run brand.
6. Nikwax Stain Scrub
   • Dirt and stains happen, but Nikwax Stain Scrub makes freshening up your adventure gear a breeze. This eco-friendly, bleach-free pre-wash gently lifts grime with its built-in brush. It’s safe on technical fabrics and gets your jackets, packs, and tents ready for your next TrailblazerGirl adventure without compromising water repellency.
7. PURA D’OR Argan Oil
   • Liquid gold for hair and skin, PURA D’OR Argan Oil is 100% pure, organic, cold-pressed, and unrefined. Packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and essential fatty acids from Moroccan argan kernels, use it to nourish and protect hair, soothe the scalp, promote healthy growth, or deeply hydrate skin while improving elasticity and reducing fine lines—your all-in-one hair and skincare powerhouse.
8. rabbit EZ Cargos
   • The rabbit EZ Cargos are crafted from ultra-soft, lightweight, stretchy fabric that moves with you and dries in a flash—perfect for runs, hikes, or any adventure. With clever pockets (including two with hidden snaps), an adjustable waistband, and versatile leg zippers, these durable, stylish cargos are so comfy you might find excuses just to wear them everywhere! And for those looking for pants with a water repellent finish, this year’s rabbit High Country Pants, are the way to go.

   • The KURU Atom Fusion is your go-to sneaker for every adventure, from workouts and walks to travel and daily errands. With KURUSOLE cushioning, a wide toe box, breathable mesh, and a slip-on-friendly design, they keep every step comfy, supported, and ready for a little spontaneous happy dancing. Also check out the Triple Max Ion for a dedicated running shoe with the KURUSOLE comfort.
