1. A magnetic cloud key holder you can easily place your keys on it when you arrive home and know exactly where to find them when it's time to leave again (and not spend any extra time running around your house searching for them).
Promising review: "This is one of the most useful purchases I've ever made on Amazon. I use it every single day to hang my keys. I've had it for at least half a year now it seems. It hasn't lost any magnetism, and it holds my car keys, remote start, USB, rewards/gift cards, house and work keys, etc. I'm in love. It's one of the best purchases I've made." —Makenah

2. An Aquis Lisse Luxe Hair Towel you can wear to ~wrap~ up the amount of time it takes to dry your hair. This little guy sucks up the water *FAST*, so you can be ready in no time.
Promising review: "I’m surprised by how well this actually works! I truly have coarse, un-tame-able hair that I must half air-dry and then blow-dry — it’s a science. But this towel really helps the texture of my hair and helps it dry more quickly. Now I can put the towel on when I get out of the shower, then be blow-drying in 15 minutes. Cuts down 'handling' time when it comes to drying!" —Katie

3. A ChargeCard portable charger thin enough to fit in a purse or even wallet so you never have to use the excuse that you were stuck at home charging your phone. With this, you'll have a quick and convenient way to keep your phone charged at all times.
AquaVault is a small business you may have seen on Shark Tank. They created this charger to be small enough to fit in a wallet and work with Apple, Android, and other devices.

4. A sunrise alarm clock for anyone who has THE WORST time waking up in the morning and usually ends up hitting snooze too many times. It slowly brightens to wake you up peacefully and without a loud alarm. You'll feel more relaxed and ready to tackle your morning without feeling too rushed and frazzled.
This can be programmed with seven different light settings, seven different calming "wake up" noises, and to start gradually lighting up at 30, 20, or 10 minutes before you wake.
Promising review: "This great little alarm has been a lifesaver for me! I've always been a heavy sleeper and have always struggled with running late to work. This alarm changed that for me. It’s more gentle than other alarms, and it wakes you up gradually mimicking sunrise entering the bed room along with soft alarm sounds (my favorite is the birds singing). You can set up two different alarms with different settings, including the brightness of the light, the volume of the alarm sound, and snooze time! I'm also using it as a sleep aid and a white noise machine to fall asleep whenever I find myself struggling with insomnia. Besides, I live in Seattle, where it rains a lot, which sometimes gets me under the weather. Using this alarm as light therapy for depression calms me down and elevates my mood! I highly recommend this alarm to all the heavy sleepers out there. It will change your life forever." —Talman
Get it from Amazon for $32.88+ (available in two colors).

If you put in the amount of water that the instructions tell you, they come out just as wanted. Good purchase!" —Denny M

The set includes a curling rod, two hair scrunchies, a claw hair clip, and two duckbill hair clips to set it in place. You can use this on all hair types, but reviewers say it works best when used with damp hair!
Promising review: "Gorgeous curls every time! So easy to use and no heat damage to your hair. As a procrastinator, this saves me so much time in the morning before work!

Kitsch is a woman-founded company that specializes in hair accessories and tools to make every day a good hair day!

9. A Souper Cubes freezer tray specifically made with four spaces that fit 1 cup of soup or sauce. This way, you can make a whole bunch of soup and then freeze it in single-serving portions so it's easier to defrost and eat for dinner in the future.
Souper Cubes is a family-run small business with a passion for better frozen meal prep and food waste reduction! Plus, their products are BPA-free, dishwasher-safe, and it have fill lines on the side of the compartments for half and full cups.
Promising review: "LOVE LOVE LOVE. My freezer is so much more organized now. Gone are the days of having to defrost an entire bag of chicken broth for one cup for a recipe. I now have perfectly portioned 1/2-cup and 1-cup blocks ready to go. They fit easily in freezer bags, take up less space, and make me incredibly happy. There was a lot of attention to detail put into the design and I particularly appreciate the wire inside the rim that holds everything steady — no more worrying about spilling all the liquid on the way to the freezer. Just a fantastic product all around. I purchased this and a cheaper version from another manufacturer at the same time but returned the other product. This one is definitely worth the added cost." —Kate
Get it from Amazon for $19.95.
10. An eyeliner stamp because nothing, and I mean nothing, can stop you from having an amazing day when you create the perfect cat-eye in less than a minute. What's that? Oh yeah, that's just Marvel on the phone to get you to be the next star now that you have an amazing superpower.

The stamp is waterproof *and* smudge-proof, so you won't have to worry about reapplying throughout the day. The pen has two ends — one for stamping and the other has a fine tip for putting eyeliner on the rest of your eyelid.
Promising review: "I 100% recommend this product. I love this!!! I can’t say enough good things. I am horrible at making my wings even!!! This has been a lifesaver and so versatile. It has cut my makeup time in half!!!" —lilly1991

It will be defrosted in no time — and you'll never have to remember to take the meat out of the fridge in the morning again.
Plus, this Black-owned and invented product fits in all sinks no matter the size or type.
Promising review: "A package of frozen meat would have taken at least two days to thaw in the fridge. I used this for a 2-pound package a couple of days ago, and the meat was thawed within 90 minutes. One of the most practical kitchen gadgets I own." —Llda Schellhase
Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (available in two colors).
12. Some Downy Wrinkle Releaser fabric spray, because, who are you kidding? You're never going to pull out your iron to get those pants pressed. Instead, just spray this on the pants, pull down on the fabric a bit, and the wrinkles will disappear. Now that's magic!
Promising review: “Easy to use, convenient, and effective. I love this stuff!! I use it in my dorm room, since ironing anything in this tiny space is a pain. It’s easy to use, you just spray the front and back and pull on it for a minute to release all the wrinkles. It smells great – very fresh. Although if you’re very sensitive to scents/perfumes in your detergent this might also irritate your skin since the scent is kind of strong, but it does calm down when it dries. I do have slightly sensitive skin and it’s never bothered me, though. Plus, even if you do have the space to iron, it’s such a time saver in the mornings and great for things like T-shirts that don’t usually need to be ironed but are wrinkly. I think you would still need to iron things like dress shirts or pants, though. My mom has been using this for years, and it was great when I was a young teenager so that I didn’t have to get out the iron and make my mom worry about me burning the house down. Overall, I think this product is super convenient and a time- and energy-saver worth having around the house.” —Isabel
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $15.94.
13. Or a magnetic ironing pad if you do really need to iron something. This snaps right on to your dryer so you don't have to take out that big and bulky ironing board that's probably the main reason you don't end up actually ironing your clothes.
Promising review: "It's a time saver! By the time I drag out my regular ironing board, do my ironing, then have to drag it back, and it takes up SO MUCH ROOM! UGH! So this 'blanket' just goes over my dryer and POOF, I can get done what I need to do, fold it up, and I'm done!" —Mary Ann
Get it from Amazon for $13.87.
14. A zipper puller here to be your new BFF when you're alone and realize the dress you want to wear has a zipper in that back, making it almost impossible to twist your arms to get all the way up. No need to fret (and sweat) anymore because this handy gadget will grab the zipper, and you can be on your way.
Promising review: "Pulling up the zipper in the back of dress might turn out a stressful situation if you don't have anyone to help you. It is a simple idea to hook up a zipper and pull it, but it saves tons of time if you have a stubborn zipper. The price a bit expensive, but to save time to dress yourself without anyone's help, it is worth it." —Sharon P
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in three colors).
15. Some biodegradable hypoallergenic wipes because sometimes a shower just isn't an option when you're tight on time, but neither is showing up with a funky scent. One of these will give you a quick refresh so you can feel clean even if you most def broke a sweat trying (and failing) to make it on time.
These are made with natural tea tree oil, peppermint, ginseng, and oil and come individually wrapped, so they're super easy to stash in a bag.
Promising review: "These wipes work great. I workout on my lunch breaks, and I use one wipe afterwards (instead of taking a shower to save time). They are totally sufficient for a quick clean up/deodorize, and I really enjoy the scent, too!" —Olivia
Get a pack of 10 from Amazon for $10.99.
16. A Click & Carry grocery bag holder so you can take all your groceries inside in one trip.

Each one can hold up to 80 pounds!!
Promising review: "I love these. Sometimes when you go to the grocery store and plan on getting one thing, you walk out with 40 lol. I live upstairs, so this saves time with making one trip instead of 2–3. I’m so glad I got these. Bought my daughter a pair, and she loves it, too." —Felicia

17. Hero Cosmetics Rescue Balm + Red Correct designed to help neutralize any redness on your face while the ingredients actually work together to help reduce the overall appearance of the dark spots. It's light enough that you can wear it on its own so you can skip the foundation and get on with your life.
This is probably my favorite Hero product at the moment. Because I deal with hormonal acne, I also deal with some scaring and dark spots, and this has become my new go-to for every day wear. It really does neutralize the redness. I was shocked the first time I tried it. With this, I felt like I didn't even need concealer to cover any spots on my face. The formula is super lightweight and feels great on my skin. I wear it almost every day now, and I have noticed that many of the spots to seem a bit lighter. I will probably always keep this in my skincare cabinet from now on.
Promising review: "This stuff is amazing! It goes on easily and you don't have to use too much. It blends quickly and is not cakey or heavy on your skin. I was shocked at how well it neutralized some of my red spots and cystic acne scars. It's great to wear under makeup, but is also light enough that if you blend it in you won't notice it wearing it on a natural face. That's really nice for when you don't want to put on a full face of makeup, but want to look a little clearer." —Claire C.
Get it from Amazon for $29.99.
18. An auto-shutoff outlet for anyone who has stopped in a cold panic after they leave their house trying to remember if they've turned off their curling iron or straightener. (🙋🏻♀️) Simply put this in the outlet, plug your device in, and hit the button to set the timer. Then you can go about your day without having to turn around to make sure you won't burn your house down.
That can't be a fear just I have, right? Right??? You can set the timer on this for one, two, four, or eight hours, or just put it on hold.
Promising review: "I'm very pleased with this. I use it mainly for at-home hair styling. I often like to leave my styling wand on for last-minute touch ups before leaving early in the morning but, in haste, I often get on the freeway and worry that I forgot to unplug it. No more worries with this attached to the plug. I wish I'd gotten it sooner." —JDubya
Get it from Amazon for $11.79.
19. A Neutrogena makeup remover eraser stick specifically designed to clean up those little mistakes or mascara smudges without you having to completely start your makeup over. Fixing your cat-eye will be easier than ever.
Promising review: "I was skeptical, but after reading all the reviews, I decided to give it a try, and I’m glad I did. This stuff is great. It’s not greasy, and it doesn’t burn your eyes. It removes every ounce of makeup and leaves my skin so soft and clean. No more makeup cloths or pulling at my eyes to remove my mascara." —becca powers

20. Drawer dividers with bins so you can organize all your bras and undergarments and know exactly where your favorite bra is (because we all have one that's so clearly superior to all the rest) or be able to grab specific underwear that work with your outfit in .5 seconds flat. Messy drawers = more time wasted searching through everything to find what you're looking for.
Promising review: "I thought I was organized putting my socks, panties, and bras into separate tubs in my underwear drawer, but these storage compartments are amazing! I know how to fold or roll each item to fit perfectly, and can do it quickly. They save me tons of time in the mornings by being able to instantly find the colors I want. I feel so proud of my messy self when I open this drawer. It looks pretty!" —Baroness B
Get a four-pack from Amazon for $12.87 (available in seven colors).
21. A nonstick microwave pasta cooker because waiting for water to boil is the WORST part of making pasta. What's the saying about watching paint dry? Well, when you're hungry, boiling water is worse than that. All you have to do is add your pasta and enough water (based on the instructions) and pop it into the microwave. You'll have al dente pasta in a matter of minutes!
It also doubles as a strainer, and you can use the holes in the lid to portion out long pastas.
Promising reviews: "This little thing is great. I wish I'd bought it sooner. It's a very simple container with draining and measuring holes (for long pasta) in the lid. The container itself isn't anything special. Honestly, the part that makes it REALLY worth buying is the little instruction card. It accurately shows you how long to cook many different kinds of pasta, how much water to add, etc. It takes out all the guesswork, which saves SO much time. Every kind of pasta I've tried so far has come out perfectly al dente by strictly following the instructions." —T. B. H.
Get it from Amazon for $17.99.
22. Kenra's Platinum Blow-Dry Spray you apply to your hair after washing it to not only protect it from heat and tame frizz, but also cut down your drying time by 50%. You'll be out the door in no time with beautiful hair in the morning, even if you press snooze a couple of times.
Promising review: "I LOVE the smell of this! Bought it due to frizzing from coloring my hair, but really didn't believe that it shortened drying time. I mean, how can something putting moisture on you hair shorten the drying time, right? I was shocked. I don't know if it cut it down by 50%, but I did notice blow-drying my hair took quit a bit less time. I am sold on this stuff. Makes my hair feel like silk, but not greasy (I was worried about it making my hair greasy) and it takes only a few sprays to get the results. I hold it about 15 inches from my head and spray the top, both sides, and the back once, then rub it in with my hands. Perfect!" —Janice C. Henderson
Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in three sizes and packs of two).
23. A set of seat gap fillers so you'll never experience the feeling of having your phone fall between the seat and the center console while you're driving, knowing it's going to take about 10 minutes to retrieve it from the black hole down there.
24. A Revlon one-step hairdryer and volumizer brush going viral for a reason — it cuts drying time in half *and* helps you easily create a salon-worthy blowout at home. You'll be ~blown~ away by the results.
Promising reviews: "I love this blow-dryer. Wash day use to be something I dreaded since I have 4b/c hair. This dryer has cut my drying time in half and helped save my arms. My hair gets so dry and smooth. I love this dryer and wish I would have bought it sooner." —Jessica N Nelson
Get it from Amazon for $39.87.
P.S. Some reviewers with curl types 4a–c like this oval brush, but if you want something that will help blow out tighter curls or coils, there's the Revlon One-Step *paddle* brush. This style is designed with curlier hair in mind, and reviewers love it! Get it from Amazon for $30.87+ (available in two colors).
25. A set of lotus trolley bags designed to fit exactly in a shopping cart. These will allow you to bag your groceries as you go and then swiftly put them in your car afterward to take home.
Promising review: "I am the envy of all who see me. Seriously. The only 'problem' with these bags is how many people will stop you to ask about them. I never forget to bring my reusable bags anymore because these are so useful! I use the scan as you shop app at my local store and bag as I go. When I’m finished shopping, I scan it at any register, pay, and go. Everything is packed the way I want it and can be easily carried into my home. It saves time while helping the environment — win/win. I plan to buy these for all of my friends for their birthdays. So much more useful than body wash or another scented candle!" —S. Connell
Get it from Amazon for $44.99 (available in two color combinations).
26. A portable blender so you can ~whip~ up a delicious smoothie or milkshake anywhere and everywhere. It runs on a charge, which means you don't have to blend your smoothie before you head out the door. Plus, when you want to enjoy what's inside, you can swap the lid and drink right from it.
Promising review: "Yes, I did it. I bought the TikTok blender and don't regret it one bit. I can create any smoothie I want, from fruit to dessert shakes for the kids. So easy to use, charge and clean. It's a must-buy!!!" —Debby from Warren
Get it from Amazon for $36.80 (available in four colors).
27. A six-pack of rectangle claw clips reviewers confirm can hold up the thickest of hair while still looking incredibly chic. These will be the perfect accessory for those in-between hair washing days when your strands *could* look better but you just don't have the time to do a full hair wash.
Promising review: "With my long hair, I often have trouble finding clips/hair ties that don't pull when I put my hair up. These are amazing! They have a firm hold, but I don't even feel like I have anything in my hair! I got option H, and am glad I did; a color to go with everything!" —Amazon Customer
Get a six-pack from Amazon for $8.99 (available in 10 different styles and sets).
28. A rotating timer you can set for a specific amount of time to help you not get so engrossed in a task that you lose track of time and realize you were supposed to leave the house 20 minutes ago! Reviewers use this for working out, doing chores, and studying/doing work.
You can set the timer for 5-, 10-, 15-, 20-, and 30-minute blocks by rotating it to the time you want. Then it will start the countdown. There are also four volume options in case you don't want to disrupt any other people in your home.
Promising review: "This is a terrific workout timer — it helps keep me on pace. I keep one in my garage workout space to keep me on pace so I don't exceed my time-slot and end up late for work. Rotate and GO. It counts down from the chosen set point and optional alarm chirps when time is zero. I liked it so much I got a second one for setting timed tasks (like chores) inside the house." —Kevin of Stumptown
Get it from Amazon for $18.99 (available in 30- and 60-minute configurations and five colors).
29. An adjustable hair dryer holder to give you a ~hand~ as you do your hair. It will basically turn your bathroom into a salon without having to leave your house.

Promising review: "I wish I found this product sooner, I would have saved so many hours. It cut my hair blow-dry time from 30 minutes to 12 minutes. I'm also able to do my makeup while my hair is drying. I also love how light it is and how easily it sticks anywhere I'd like. It's very secure and fits almost every size blowdryer. I've been recommending this product to all my friends and family. I highly recommend this amazing product to anyone wants to get a professional blowout quickly without spending too much time, and most importantly, without your arms getting tired." —Mariya

Promising review: "This saves so much time. I love these so much. I purchased more for gifts. No need to wait for items to cook in the toaster oven with these.

It was very easy to set up, and we have two feeding times a day. It has operated with batteries just fine. It saved our mornings from our two cats crying outside our door for food early in the morning! Have not had any issues with it for over a month.
