What the Strategist Editors Bought in March

I purged the cable drawer in my kitchen and reassigned each cable category to one of these pouches. Bliss! —Ailbhe Malone, senior editor

I’ve used Neutrogena Hydro Boost as a moisturizer for years, but recently it just hasn’t been feeling as great as it once did (no idea why, if I’m being honest). In an effort to change it up with something equally affordable, I bought a Rio-recommended CosRx cream. I’ve been using it this whole month and love it so far. I don’t actually have acne-prone skin (the skin type Rio suggested it for), but I find it so hydrating and gentle. Definitely re-upping after my jar is done. —Emma Wartzman, kitchen and dining writer

I recently got over my irrational suspicion of Apple Pay and no longer need to keep all of my cards attached to my phone case for easy access when paying for the subway. Accordingly, I used Madewell’s Insider Event Sale as an excuse to purchase myself a real wallet. I chose the brown option, which Madewell dubbed “warm cinnamon.” Along with having enough space to hold all my cards and cash, the wallet matches my everyday leather backpack, which is also from Madewell. —Bella Druckman, junior writer

I’ve got a trip to Italy coming up and have no clue where my universal adapter from 2016 is, so I bought this one from our Strategist Travel 100. I only need it to charge two phones, no hair tools or higher-voltage items, so it should do the trick. —Kelsie Schrader, managing editor

An Everlane sale means I have to stock up on the best T-shirt. It’s perfect, from the face-framing crew neck down to the cropped-but-not-too-cropped hem. I have it in almost every color now — the new additions this time around are navy, “red currant,” and “dark sea.” The sale may be over, but you still get a deal: three for $60 (at $30 each regularly, one’s basically free). —Ambar Pardilla, writer

I had never tried packing cubes before, but our travel writer Rachael Griffiths’s Best in Class post finally convinced me to buy some small ones from Calpak. I’ve now used them on two trips and was amazed by how much I can pack inside them (six dresses in one pack, seven shirts in the other) and how much room they saved in my Away Bigger Carry-on. I wonder how much more I could pack into the even larger sizes … —Ashley Wolfgang, newsletter editor
