Here at NBC Select, a lot happened in 2024. We celebrated our second-annual Wellness Awards, where we tested hundreds of products in categories like fitness tech, workout apparel and sleep. Our editors also spoke to dermatologists about a range of skin care topics, including sunscreens, face moisturizers and lip balms, and hosted our first-ever Dry Skin Week earlier this year. Tech products were also in high demand as NBC Select readers gravitated toward the Oura Ring, wireless earbuds and smartwatches.
Below, I rounded up the bestselling products we covered in 2024. All of the items below are highly rated, tested by NBC Select editors or recommended by experts.
