1. An adorable octopus-shaped blackhead remover that actually works to pull out whiteheads, blackheads, and any other ~ink~ clogging up your pores. You may be disgusted by what the lil' cutie pulls out of your face, but you'll be so thankful it does.
Promising reviews: "After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me, smells great too. Here's how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt is visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, then I used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like myself." —LuckLocust
Get it from Amazon for $12.50.
2. A pair of horizontal glasses to help you read, watch TV, or play games while in the perfect, most comfortable position possible. Plus, they prevent neck and eye strain!
These glasses are great for everyone, but especially for people who are bedridden.
Promising review: "I saw these on a couple of TikTok videos and immediately bought them. They are literally the best thing I’ve ever bought. I was scared they wouldn't fit over my glasses but they do just fine. The only disclaimer is that it cuts off your peripheral vision so you shouldn’t be walking or driving with these. I use them to read, watch TV, and scroll through my social media all while lying down. Such a great buy!" —Kivy
Get them from Amazon for $13.88.
3. A portable car vacuum, a must-have for car owners who are constantly on the go and need a quick way to clean up spills, mud, or sand from a day at the beach. It's only 2.4 lbs, comes with three different-sized attachments, and plugs into your vehicle's 12-V Aux outlet.
BuzzFeed Shopping writer Stephanie Hope says: "When I tell you that I use this product often, I mean it. It's so easy to plug in, vacuum dirt from the floor or seat, and put it away. It comes with three different attachments and an extra filter! My tip is to use the brush attachment for everything as it will kick dirt off the carpet fibers, making it easier to suction." Read more of her car vacuum cleaner review (#1).
Promising review: "This portable vacuum is ammmmmazing! I love all of the attachments to get the hard to reach spots! It gets the job done! TikTok made me buy it! If you are on the fence about this one... do it! Hit that 'buy now' button. You will not be disappointed. Never putting quarters in a timed vacuum again. There is never enough time, and you rush around trying to beat the timer. Or is that just me? Haha" —Abigail
Get it from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in three colors).
4. A Thaw Claw meant to defrost meat up to seven times faster. All you have to do is suction it to your sink, fill the sink with water, and then put the frozen food under the claw. 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 $18.95 (available in four colors).
5. An acupressure anti-nausea wristband to help make nausea and motion/morning sickness disappear so you can go on with your day without feeling awful and fighting the urge to throw up.
The band applies pressure on the P6 acupressure point that is said to help relieve nausea and vomiting.
Promising review: "I wished I tried this a long time ago. I used it on a 13 hour drive. Once at Disney World, I wore them for every ride, and it was the first time I did not get nausea or sick. I was amazed. This is a must-have if you get car sick or can’t ride rides at an amusement park." —E. Kendra
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $8.59.
6. A sandwich cutter and sealer so you can make your own Uncrustables at home. You'll save money *and* keep your kids happy, which is always a win. Plus, you can get more creative with your sandwich creations so your kids don't have to eat PB&J three times a week.
Promising review: "This set is amazing! I did not realize that Uncrustable makers existed, and I am so glad a friend mentioned them to me, and I bought this set! My life is changed for the better. I am saving so much money by making my own Uncrustables! This set is sturdy and works like a charm! Very easy to clean up after as well! Best purchase I've made in a long time!" —Leah
Get it from Amazon for $15.26***
7. A portable door lock, a must-have for anyone who travels alone or just wants some extra peace of mind (while traveling or at home). It's super easy to install and remove, fits in almost all doors, and is small enough to stash in a bag.
Promising review: "My apartment door has a deadbolt but no lock on the door handle. The latch is also misplaced so if it’s not dead bolted anyone can just push my door open. Took a few tries to get this right but makes me feel much more secure, and it’s easy to use when you get the hang of it! I also take this with me when traveling as it fits almost all doors. Definitely recommend." —Anna
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
8. A Takeya cold brew maker so you can make your favorite beverage at home. Just keep it in your fridge and pour yourself a glass when that 3 p.m. slump hits.
Plus, it's so easy to make! Just add six tablespoons of your favorite coffee in the filter, fill it with water, and let it sit in your fridge for 24 hours. Then just take the filter out of the pitcher and enjoy your coffee!
Promising review: "I LOVE this product so much! I drink iced coffee on the daily, but the system I had just wasn't cutting it for me. I didn't know how to brew cold coffee at home (all we have is a Keurig, and there's no cold brew option), so I would go buy iced coffee from Dunkin Donuts every morning. Now don't get me wrong, I love my Dunkin Donuts, but I wanted to find a way to be able to make that same iced coffee at HOME. I think my wallet and gas tank wanted me to figure that out too. I found out about this product through TikTok, and it is a GAME CHANGER. All you have to do is put coffee grounds in the filter, fill up the main compartment 3/4 full with water (I use water from my fridge), screw the filter into the lid, screw the lid shut, shake it a little to put the coffee grounds to work, and let it do its magic for 12–24 hours! This is probably the best investment i've ever made. You need this!!" —Carmen E
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors).

9. A magnetic cat AirPod holder just purrrfect for setting on your desk to make sure you always know where your headphones are when you get up to go to the bathroom. Plus, it will bring you so much joy as you sit through yet another meeting that should have been an email.
Promising review: "One of the most useless things I’ve ever bought, and I have ZERO REGRETS. This serves no purpose other than to bring joy and happiness to all." —Kayla Marie
Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (available in white or black and also in a pack of five).
10. A detangling leave-in conditioner parents swear by to tame frizz, reduce breakage, and hydrate curls, all while avoiding a meltdown of epic proportions as they try to brush their child's hair.
Promising review: "I love this stuff so much!! My son has tight ringlet Victorian style curls naturally and it was getting frizzy and broken so I found this spray and his hair is the healthiest it’s ever been! I spray some in and put his hair in a silk cap and it is so shiny and soft and his curls have all recovered and the smell is amazing! I’ve recommended it to everyone in my family and I started using it too because it works better than my adult leave-in!" —Amber
Get it from Amazon for $8.44.
11. A sliding magnet to make it abundantly clear whether the dishes are dirty or clean. If you've got a household of multiple people, this is much simpler than asking, "Is the dishwasher clean?" every time you open it.
12. Wad-Free, which is about to change your laundry life. Don't believe me? This seemingly boring square thing attaches to the corners of your sheets to help them dry faster, be less wrinkled, and stop them from encompassing everything in the drier so it turns into a tangled mess. It's a pretty ~neat~ tool, if I do say so myself.
Plus, they're BPA-free, reusable, and created by a small business during the pandemic.
Promising review: "These are life changing!! The sheets don’t get bound up and twisted full of socks and under things. And therefore you KNOW that those socks and under things are CLEAN. And the sheets are CLEAN. Which means not wasting time, soap, water, and electricity washing all that stuff all over again!!!! They’re good for your mood and good for the wallet and for the environment. Buy them and see what this brilliant woman has wrought. I’m buying a set for my kid going off to college and another set for me so I can do more than two sheets at once." —LHorns 4Ever
Get a set of two from Amazon for $18.99.
13. A volcanic stone face roller that'll remove all the oil and shine that appears on your face now that the sun is shining. Reviewers like this option better than oil-blotting sheets because the ball can be popped out and washed, making it a reusable and more sustainable option.
Promising review: "I am so extremely oily. Have been dealing with my oily skin since I was in high school and still dealing with my oily skin in my mid-30s. The roller worked better than I could have expected and exceeded my expectations. This is life changing for me!" —Wow
Get it from Amazon for $12.99.
14. A running belt just perfect for holding your necessities so you can focus on breaking your personal record instead of keeping track of whether you've lost your keys.
Promising review: "I’m a runner and a big problem in the past has been where to put the phone and other items! I do have another item similar that I can have for my longer runs as it comes with two bottles, but for all my normal runs, this item is the best! After a few seconds, I forget it’s even on! Haha I highly recommend for runners, it’s a must have! It will change your runs forever. :) There are many pockets and a lot of different ways you can store it. I even tried to grab my bottle from my other one and see if it fits and works with this item, and it worked great! It's very high quality and it looks like it will last a really long time!" —Anjali
Get it from Amazon for $22.17+ (available in sizes XXS–XXL and in 13 colors).
15. A pack of FryAway Waste Cooking Oil Solidifier Powder ideal for anyone who struggles with how to dispose of cooking oil (because you should never pour it down the drain). Just add this to the pan after you're done cooking, and it will solidify up to 8 cups of oil. Then you can easily scoop it out and throw it right in the trash. Genius!
Promising review: "Quite impressive. After making some fries, we added a packet to the hot oil and stirred a few times. Maybe 10 minutes later, we checked the pan, and the oil had solidified. Using a wood spoon, we easily removed the solid and put it in the trash. I will always make sure to keep a pack of FryAway in our pantry. Highly recommended." —Ryan O.
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in three sizes).
16. A set of matte lipsticks about to put every other lipstick you've ever tried to shame (just read some of the reviews dragging more expensive brands). This lipstick goes on easy and stays on — even through eating a cupcake *and* a whole night out, as one reviewer confirms.
Promising review: "Seriously, this stuff is awesome. And it stays on! I literally just got a root canal, and my lipstick had not a smudge out of place! I was amazed. Honestly, I was like why on earth did I wear lipstick while going for a root canal? Habit, I guess. And when they were done, I fully expected my lipstick to be all over my face or wiped off, but no! It still looked like perfection. Highly recommend." — Sasha Wallace
Get a six-piece set from Amazon for $11.88.
17. A reusable cleaning ball designed to pick up all the crumbs and dust that have made their home in the bottom of your bag. Inside the cage is a sticky ball that grabs all those little suckers easily. And when it's full, all you have to do is remove the sticky ball and rinse it with water.
Promising review: "This little ball is genius! Rolls around in my purse; which I live out of. It picks up a lot lint, debris, or even crumbs. Easy to find with the bright pink. Just remove and wash, and it’s ready to go again. The price was great and something I can use for years. If you live out of your purse, this a must-have!!" —dj3biggs
Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (available in two colors).
18. A microwave popper that'll basically revolutionize the way you make popcorn. You'll get delicious, homemade popcorn with fresh butter in a matter of minutes and won't have to keep buying the microwave bags over and over again. Movie night has never tasted so good.
I should know, I only use this to make popcorn now. With one of these, I'm able to make as much or as little popcorn as I want, whenever I want. It's convenient and easy to use. Plus, you're not throwing away single-use popcorn bags all the time!
Promising review: "Where do I begin? Do you enjoy happiness, joy, and laughter? Then buy this now! Have you not purchased this item yet? What are you waiting on? This will be the best popcorn you have ever made! Life changing popcorn! How can popcorn be life changing? Just imagine the lightest fluffiest clouds you have ever seen. Then make that popcorn!" —Savannah Debus
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in 22 colors).
19. A dog toy featuring an ultrasonic silent squeaker only dogs can hear. If you have a dog that LOVES to put on a little musical show every single day, this toy will give your ears some sweet sweet relief.
My family's dog LOVES squeaker toys. She squeaks them over and over and over again and especially loves to put on a little show when my dad's in a virtual meeting. I was intrigued by this toy when I found it at the pet store and had to give it a try. I wasn't sure how well it was going to work, but Izzy loves it so much. You seriously can't hear a thing. I even took the toy in another room (without her knowing) and started "squeaking" it to see what would happen, and only a few seconds later she came running into the room looking for her toy. This toy is amazing. Izzy can squeak all she wants (as you can see in the gif above), and we don't have to hear a thing. If you have a dog that enjoys squeakers, you need to invest in at least one of these toys.
Get it from Amazon for $18.61 (available in two styles).
20. A portable blender so you can make a delicious smoothie in seconds anywhere. Yep, you read that right, *anywhere*. We're talking at work, home, on the street, at the gym. You name it, you can do it.
This 14-ounce jar is dishwasher-safe and charges with a USB. Plus, it's quiet, so you don't have to worry about annoying the people around it when you use it.
Promising review: "This portable blender is a total game changer for me. I love how easy it works, that it is portable, and how quickly it blends. I am going to be taking this with me daily. I'm so excited and happy with my purchase! I put in cucumber, banana, raspberries, almond milk, and protein powder, and it blended up smoothly. The only tip would be to make sure you put the powder in the center so it doesn't stick to the sides but that's with any blender. Happy customer!" —Tara
Get it from Amazon for $36.99 (available in four colors).
21. A hands-free (rotating!) phone mount you can use on more than just the airplane when you travel — it can mount on basically any surface from the tray table, arm of a chair, or even a suitcase handle for easy viewing wherever you are.
Promising review: "I bought this nifty gadget about six months ago for a multi-leg, ultra-long-haul trip and it more than held up the entire duration. I was able to finagle it to fit the tray tables on different planes and like others, I find the height just nice when clamped onto a stowed tray table. It also works on my roller carry-on handle during layovers. However, I find myself using it a lot outside of travel, too! Work-wise, I've clamped it onto my office desk shelving to hold my phone at eye level beside my computer. At home, I simply clamped it to a deck of cards and it turns into a versatile stand that I can place on any flat surface. Heck, I've been using it to hold my phone comfortably at eye level while watching videos in bed. It's extremely well-built and I find myself fidgeting with it all the time. Thus far it still feels solid and I don't anticipate breaking it any time soon. Even if it does break, I'll be happy to buy another one or two of it!" —Earendil
Get it from Amazon for $12.97.
22. A set of dermaplaning razors designed to be a quick way for you to shape your eyebrows, remove any unwanted hair, and just get smooth skin without having to spend more time in a salon chair.
Promising review: "How did I live without these for so long? Ugh! My face feels so smooth. I had blonde peach fuzz near my ear and cheekbones. And I used them to tidy up my brows. It removes the hair and exfoliates your skin. My skin is super sensitive, and I had no bad reaction to this. I'm in love with these!" —Brooke B
Get a set of three from Amazon for $5.67.
23. A USB-chargeable fan you'll be SO grateful you have on your next trip to Disney or any amusement park in the warmer months, really.
BuzzFeed Shopping Editor Heather Braga says: "I picked up one of these bad boys for a recent trip to Walt Disney World, and BOY, was it worth every penny. It really does make a difference when you're walking around in the scalding hot sun. It also folds up so it isn't super bulky when not in use."
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in three colors).
24. A bottle of Drop It made to remove the sulfates and tannins from your glass of wine so you can enjoy a glass or two with your friends and not regret it the next day. This won't mess with the flavor of the wine but will help ensure you won't wake up with a wicked headache in the morning.
It's more cost-effective and environmentally friendly than other competitors because one bottle can be used up to 55 times. To use, add one to two drops in each glass of white one, two to three for each glass of red, or seven to nine to a whole bottle. Swirl it for 20 seconds after you put it in, and the glass is ready to drink.
Promising review: "This ish works! I was kinda scared to try it. If you struggle with getting headaches from drinking wine, try this. I use it every time I drink wine. I travel with it, it's easy to store, and it works. I don’t get headaches while drinking wine if I use this." —Capri Enjoli
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
25. A pair of no-drip cleansing cuffs here to revolutionize the way you wash your face. They're easy to slip on and will catch all the water and soap before it makes its way to your clothes as you give your face the scrub it deserves.
La Beautyologist is a Black woman-owned small, LA-based skincare business!
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Genevieve Scarano says: "My sweatshirt sleeves ALWAYS get wet when I wash my face. It's really tricky to keep them dry because I use creamy cleansers that require a little more rinsing than other products. I decided to try these cozy cuffs, and they make such a difference in my skincare routine. They protect my sleeves from getting drenched and make self-care time a little more fun. They're also machine washable!"
Get a pair from LA Beautyologist for $23 (available in five colors).
26. A set of magnetic locks for anyone who needs to baby proof their home but doesn't want it to scream "EVERYTHING IS BABY-PROOFED." These hidden locks are actually installed using tape (to not damage the wood) and make it so your little one can't open the drawer or cabinet.
The set comes with 12 locks that have strong 3M double-sided tape on the back and two keys.
Promising review: "We have a toddler and have moved several times since she started getting into things. Every time I'm stuck installing child locks that require hardware or squeezing fingers into tight spots to operate. These are a huge improvement on every front. Install in moments, adhere wonderfully, and the magnet key is a game changer. Not to mention, the ability to disable the lock when you know you're going to be in and out of the cabinet for a bit. Can't recommend enough." —Jared
Get a set from Amazon for $33.99.
27. A heatless curling rod headband perfect for anyone who wants to cut down on the amount of heat they use on their hair but not give up those perfect curls. Simply wrap your hair around the headband before you go to bed, and you'll wake up to big curls (sans heat damage!).
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: "Before purchasing, I’d seen a lot of reviews and tutorials on TikTok showing the results. My hair is thick, coarse, and naturally wavy, so I figured this might be a good alternative to rollers that are time-consuming to put in, difficult to sleep in, and ultimately not worth it. And MAN was I right to be hopeful. Wrap pieces of damp hair around it before bed, the tighter the wrap, the tighter the curl. Easy to sleep in since there’s nothing on the back of your head, and my curls are BOUNCY the next morning. My only complaint is that it doesn’t help give any top-volume, but nothing some teasing can’t fix. 10/10. I’ll never go back to a curling iron." —Mariah
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in seven colors).
28. A pair of beaded fan pull extenders making it incredibly easy for you to know which chain is for the light and which is for the fan. Plus, the chains add over a foot of length to your existing pulls, so you don't have to grab a ladder just to turn the fan on. You'll be incredibly thankful for this on those days when it's warm outside but not quite hot enough to turn on the air conditioning.
Promising review: "This is the definition of "product you didn't know you needed because you didn't know it existed." I was FOREVER pulling the wrong chain on our bedroom ceiling fan. (Want the light off? Oh no...now the fan's on high. Need to change the fan speed? Eek... now you're in the dark.) They're a much better quality than I expected. They're actually quite heavy-duty pull chains, and they add a bit of fun to the decor. (When you notice them — most of the time, who even things about a ceiling fan pull chain?) As an added bonus, my infant daughter loves staring at them while I change her diaper or jammies. I tap them to make the chains swing, and it's instant fascination, which helps make my job easier!" —LHD
Get it from Amazon for $6.59+ (available in two sizes and in two finishes).
29. An acupressure mat and pillow set designed to naturally reduce muscle tension and back pain when you lie on it for 10 to 30 minutes a day. One reviewer said it helped relieve tension built up from sitting at a desk eight to 10 hours a day.
Promising review: "Honestly a friend sent me a TikTok video on this item. I was like for 20 bucks I'll try it, and oh my god, I have lower back problems and 20 minutes lying on this spiking mat helped relieve pressure. I work remotely and am sitting down for 8 to 10 hours a day, so tension builds up and this totally worked. So many ways to try using the mat." —Arlington Ink
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in two styles and 14 colors).
30. A jewelry cleaning brush because you can only keep using the phrase "shine bright like a diamond" if your diamonds actually do shine brightly.
Promising review: "I read a lot of BuzzFeed Shopping, because I have to admit that I am an Amazon shopaholic, and they have the best suggestions ever. Anyways, I always encounter this product on almost every article, and I thought that this is just overrated. But heck, did I have one of the most **dazzling** surprise in my life. This little pen is a game changer. I followed the instructions on the label, and as I was rinsing my ring under the tap, I just have to gasp. My engagement ring is new; just a little more than 6 months old but oh the shine. You can really see the difference. How did I live before this stick?!?" —ErikaCH

31. Bed bands that'll work super hard to keep the corners of your fitted sheet in place so they don't pop off and try to escape every chance they get. Plus, this means you won't have to fight to get the sheet on all four corners as often — that itself is a chore.
Promising review: "I have a pillow-top and pillow-bottom queen-sized bed that is a little too small for king sheets, and with queen sheets, I have battled to keep the sheets from popping off. I have tried everything! I was about to try to customize some king sheets because it was so frustrating. Then I saw this. It works. I was shocked. My sheets have not popped off once. I ordered this in February and it is May now — and they have not popped off once! They used to pop off EVERY...SINGLE...NIGHT. To say this is life changing is not an exaggeration. Such a relief to be able to sleep through the night without ending up in rumpled sheets." —TinkerbellAPixie
Get a pack of four bands from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in four pack sizes and five colors).
32. A hand-powered chopper enabling you to chop an onion in seconds. Yes, you read that right. I said S-E-C-O-N-D-S. Suddenly, your least favorite cooking activity will be your favorite because you'll be done with it in no time and can move on to actually cooking your dinner.
Promising review: "This chopper is amazing!! I love cooking, but used to absolutely HATE chopping onions... until someone gave me this chopper! Now I simply have to quarter the onion, throw it in the chopper, pull the handle about 10–15 times, and they're ready to be used! No more teary eyes or spending a long time chopping onions. The cup is big enough to fit a whole onion... I think the capacity is 3 cups. There's tons of other uses to this as well... you can chop pretty much anything from herbs, veggies and fruits, to making salsa and guacamole." —Valjulia
Get it from Amazon for $17.43+ (available in three colors).
33. A sand-free beach blanket designed so that sand rolls right off it. You can pack it up without worrying you'll find sand covering everything else in your bag weeks later.
Promising review: "This was amazing. Very easy to store. It can push right down into the bottom of your pack or you can stuff it into its own pocket. I took this to the beach four days in a row. It got sand and rain on it, but the only thing that didn’t easily brush off was BBQ sauce. There were also pockets to hide things in. We stuffed our keys and phones in there when no one was looking." —Ti'Ki
Get it from Amazon for $33.97+ (available in two colors).
34. A clip-on strainer brilliantly made to fit in any size pot or pan, so you can drain water, grease, or any other liquid without using a bulky (and hard to clean) colander.
I recently picked one of these up, and it is such a game changer. I have hated using a colander so much. It's so bulky, hard to use, and takes SO much time to clean. This solves all those problems. I've clipped it on various pots and pans, and it's fit every single one. It makes it ridiculously easy to strain the water out of the pasta and even the excess fat from ground beef. I'm throwing my old colander away because it will never be used now that I have this genius tool!
Promising review: "Love, love, love this pasta strainer!!! My husband and I hate cleaning out the strainer, so I ordered this to make life easier. OMG, does it make life easier!!! If this ever breaks, I’ll be ordering another! It’s very sturdy and easy to use. Absolutely love it!" —ShylohsRedShadow
Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in five colors).
35. A FURemover squeegee that works to remove pet *and* human hair from deep in your carpet that your vacuum can't reach. It has a squeegee edge so you can also use it to clean your shower, windows, and even car windshield. We love a multipurpose product!
The broom is made with 100% natural rubber that attracts hair. It can be used on carpets, rugs, hardwood, and linoleum.
Promising review: "With two dogs and a cat in the house, I don’t know how I ever lived without this! It does an amazing job of pulling hair off the carpets and hardwood floors! I used it on my carpeted stairs, and not only did it pull up a ton of pet hair, it also made the carpet look great. I also use the squeegee side for water spills from my ornery cat." —Christy P
Get it from Amazon for $12.98+ (available in six styles).
36. An exfoliating scrub mitt you can use a couple of times a month to remove all the excess dead skin and particles on your skin. It's also great for removing self-tanner, fighting ingrown hairs, and increasing circulation.
Promising review: "I have very thin and light body hair, so any form of removal (shaving, waxing, etc) usually leaves me with a lot of ingrown hairs. I've tried body scrubs and washcloths and neither really do a great job. I saw this product recommended by a dermatologist on TikTok and thought I'd try it — it's amazing! I also have very sensitive skin, and this mitt doesn't leave my skin irritated at all. However, absolutely do not use this mitt on your face, neck, or other sensitive areas, it would be way too harsh.
I like to use this mitt first when I get in the shower, then use a body wash (a gentle chemical exfoliant) and follow up with body lotion for dry and sensitive skin. This whole routine is fragrance free and leaves my skin feeling very soft and moisturized." — Kat
Get it from Amazon for $8.49 (also available in a set of two).
37. A lace garter built specifically to hold up to two pounds, so you can keep all the essentials with your (i.e. phone, credit card, headphones, lipstick, etc.) when you wear a dress that isn't designed with pockets or you don't feel like bringing a purse. Reviewers also say this works great to hold insulin pumps while wearing dresses!
This was created by a woman-run small business started by a celebrity stylist.
Promising review: "This was the BEST! I had an outdoor party. All through setup and the party I got to keep my phone and various other things with me without having to do that hand phone/drink/etc. juggling thing. I kept receipts and cash safe in the lock flap pocket. It didn't budge through the hot sweaty setup and party! This thing is awesome! I followed the instruction videos and never had to mess with it again. I can't wait to take this thing running, to do Black Friday shopping, to a game. So many problems solved!" —pineypalm

38. A set of silicone stove-counter gap covers I'm really upset I haven't had in my home for years now because these stop all those tiny crumbs from falling down the crack, and that is so so so impossible to clean up! *shakes fists in the air*
Promising review: "I've been using these for about a week on my new freestanding range. When they removed my old range, I was really surprised to see how much stuff had slipped through! Now when I cook, I can see the splatters and seasonings left on the silicone that would have fallen between the stove and the counter. These gap fillers really do clean up easily, too. Although they are that extra thing to clean, I prefer that to knowing there's a mess hiding in the cracks." —JMom

39. A Hairbrella small enough to fold up and keep in your purse so you never get caught out and about when a rainstorm hits and you know it's going to ruin your hair. The satin-lined hat also protects against snow, humidity, wind, and anything else mother nature decides to send your way.
Hairbrella is a Black-owned small business that has been creating fashionable hats that protect hair from all kinds of weather since 2016.
Promising review: "It’s lightweight, compact, and easily stored until I need it. It often gets wind sucked into it, which doesn’t create the best look. But for someone who HATES umbrellas, it’s been a game changer!" —Raymona Ellison

40. A weekly, bleach-free shower spray you simply spray in your shower, leave overnight, and rinse the next day. Yes, this cleaner is basically the set-it-and-forget-it of shower cleaners.
Promising review: "I really didn't believe the reviews that said you can spray it on shower soap scum, then come back in a day and the soap scum is gone. But that's exactly how this magical liquid works. I had a shower that was badly soap scummed, so I sprayed a good amount of this Wet/Forget stuff and left (this is a house we were moving out of). When I came back a few days later, the tiles looked like a brand new shower. I now spray my shower once a week, and I'm pretty sure I will never see soap scum again. Whoever invented this stuff deserves an award." —Far Left Texas

41. A set of bag sealers here to ensure that you never get excited to eat your favorite Chili & Lime Tortilla Chips from Trader Joe's, only to realize that they've gone stale with the lackluster bag clip you have. This small device uses heat to reseal any bag, leaving whatever's inside fresh and ready for you to enjoy.
Promising review: "How did I ever live without these?! We are a family of snackers, so we are constantly eating chips, pretzels, etc.. and this sealer is so easy and keeps things fresh. I use to use chip clips or tape — but it didn't always work so great. This reseals completely and keeps things fresh like new. This is a MUST have. And I got them as part of gift baskets for Christmas presents also! Just buy them. Enjoy. And you're welcome." —Timothy Pavlo

42. A bug bite suction tool because bug bites ~suck~ no matter where and when you get them. This genius tool will help relieve any itchiness in as little as 30 seconds.
Promising review: "I am an adult who hates mosquito bites, so much so that I often will avoid going outside. I am a mosquito magnet when others I am with won’t get any bites. I will itch for days to the point my bites bleed. With this, I suction the bites a few times and no more itch. If on the rare occasion it flares up a few days later, I suction again and no more itch! I love this thing. If I could give it 10 stars I would!" —Jessica

Promising review: "Where has this been all my life? I love it. This is a lifesaver! I’ve been looking for something like this for years. I always forget 10 minutes later if I actually took my medicine or just put it down. I’ve tried so many different ways, making marks on the bottle, making stickers, and other pill containers. None ever work. And pill containers are so bulky when I only need one pill." —Niki

Promising review: "This is a total game-changer product. I discovered the handy Zipuller while searching around Amazon, reading product descriptions and reviews. I couldn’t be happier! Recently, I took a leap of faith when I bought this fabulously sexy jumpsuit for my vacation in Jamaica. To think I almost didn’t buy it because I thought I would need help with the back zipper. Now, just like that, I am delighted knowing I can confidently dress myself. I highly recommend this must-have gadget!" —Cynthia S.
