Promising review: "I absolutely love this powder. I've used more expensive ones in the past, but this one takes the cake. It keeps my makeup on all day, even with my oily skin. I personally don't use the 'baking' method, but even so it keeps my face in place all day, even when I get hot and sweaty. Other reviewers are right, it does have a slight baby powder smell, but it doesn't bother my very much and once you've applied it to your face, the smell disappears. I recommend it to all of my friends!" —Brittany

It's also paleo-friendly and gluten-free.
Promising review: "I tend to shy away from spicy foods, but I couldn’t resist the opportunity to try a new condiment to liven up snacks and recipes with. I was afraid the spice would be overpowering, but it’s actually quite mellow and smooth; just the right touch of heat. So far, I’ve enjoyed this on fruit salad (banana/strawberry/blueberry) and drizzled on the original Chick-fil-A sandwich....so delicious!" —SleepsInRain

Promising review: "I cannot explain how good this feels when you're using it! It relaxes you and for sure is better than just using your fingertips to shampoo your hair. It actually goes down to the roots and makes sure that it gets into all the spots it can to clean your hair. My hair has never felt smoother since I started using this product." —Romie Patel

It's safe to use on your bikini line or on your armpits. For picture-worthy results, use on the affected area in the morning and at night!
Promising review: "Amazing product! I've been using this for over 10 years. I put this on a cotton ball and wipe over my entire face after shaving. It kept any bumps or ingrown hairs from forming. And if I did have a bump, I would use this and it would be gone in a day or two." —Hilfy

Promising review: "I have noticed throughout my work day I will begin to get the dreaded afternoon headache. This migraine stick is my new go-to. The second I feel a headache coming on, I just roll this on and within seconds I feel it working. Within a minute or so I feel fine again. I noticed it gives a little boost of energy as well. I have also used it when I feel a full blown migraine coming on. All I can say is it really works. In addition to taking the pain away, it also provides a tingly sensation. Wherever you roll it on tingles after application. I am now a customer for life and love this product. I have also noticed that even if I use it often, it keeps working. You don’t grow a tolerance to it." —Corinne Beck

I use blue light-blocking glasses everyday at work, and they've significantly helped my eyes and headaches. I used to get so stressed sitting in front of a computer because I knew I'd feel terrible in about two hours flat. With the glasses, I can focus more on work and not on the mega-migraine that's (no longer) approaching.
Promising review: "Everyone knows from previous reviews that these glasses are unique and high fashion. I wanted to add that they do indeed block blue light. I am a graduate student and look at computer screens, iPad screens, and Powerpoint presentations all day. My eyes feel less dry and tired at the end of the day. I used a blue light filtering testing kit that came with a different pair of glasses and these passed. The glasses are on the heavy side but comfortable and have a solid, un-cheap feel." —SSMax

I keep a cloth in my bag, one at work, and one in my apartment! I hate having dust and dirt build up on screens, so they're super useful to have on-hand.
Promising review: "I usually dislike microfiber cloths; I know they are supposedly great for cleaning your glasses and screens, but every single microfiber cloth I've ever used has left unbearable streak marks on every surface When I opened these cloths, I immediately used one to clean my glasses that I hadn't been able to clean properly all day. I used one of these cloths, and nothing else, and my glasses came out streak free and beautiful! Love these. I was hesitant to spend so much on cloths I was pretty sure I wouldn't like, but these blew me away! Most definitely will buy again." —Stephanie Hollander

Promising review: "I love how much this card case can hold! Enough space for all of my cards and a slot for cash. I like that this matches my purse and I can clip it inside of the bag – handy for finding such a small card case!" —Chelsea M.
Get it from Dagne Dover for $35 (available in nine colors).
It works with all phone types and through phone cases!
Promising review: "I've never liked the look of wireless chargers and had the Apple lightning stand, which was low profile and attractive. The looks of the iOttie stand changed my thinking. I actually like the look of it on my nightstand and it's far easier to place the phone on the stand in the dark. Placement isn't an issue – it charges right away. The small LED light on the side is so dim it does not interfere with my sleep. The build quality is great. I'd recommend it to anyone." —Richard

You can enjoy Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, HBO, Showtime, NBC, and more. It also grants you access to live TV and sports from AMC, HGTV, ESPN, and Fox.
Promising review: "I've been using the Fire TV stick for about two years, so I was a little skeptical about ordering the new 4G stick. That skeptical label can be removed right now. App downloads are much shorter and the picture is much sharper. So far it hasn't needed re-powering (like when the old stick became stuck). I think Amazon has hit a home run with this product." —J. Henson

These coils will save you on the days you want to keep your hair super straight, but need to keep it pulled back.
Promising review: "I have thin, fine hair and either my hair gets tangled and pulled out with traditional holders or they slip out of my hair. I have used these coils for four days and have not had an issue. They don’t pull or snag. And the best part is that they stay in and don’t slide out." —ChrissyT

Promising review: "Last year I moved to a new town and saw a new dermatologist who recommended CeraVe Moisturizing Cream for my dry skin and eczema. I can't tell you how many products doctors have recommended in the past that turned out to be just okay — so naturally, I took this advice with a giant grain of salt. But being the hopeful soul I am, I still gave it a shot. AND I'M SO GLAD I DID. First of all, you can use it all over, including on your face, which is very convenient. Second, it absorbs completely without leaving you feel either ~dry~ or gross and greasy. It's got some skin-strengthening ingredients and some fancy technology for releasing moisture all day (I read the jar...ha). But from experience, I can say that, yes, it does leave your skin perfectly soft and really does last all day. And for sensitive folks, it's also one of those free-of-everything creams. Can't recommend it enough." —Sarah MacMillan

I have a dish brush and I absolutely ~love~ it! It has totally replaced my kitchen sponge (since sponges can actually be v gross). It's durable, easy to use, and less messy than a sponge. Plus, you can swap out brush heads when the bristles start to get worn. I find I can really scrub with a brush so caked-on food has zero chance.
Promising review: "I really like how handy this is, you can fill it up with soap and it allows you a good grip when you are scrubbing. I appreciate it keeps my finger nails from getting any guck. A good amount of soap is dispensed when you press the button. It comes with replacement and extra clear for bottles. I would recommend!" —Liz

They come in like a billion colors and styles so you'll be able to get a different pair for every family member!
Promising review: "Last year, I purchased two pairs for myself and two pairs to give to my grandkids. Worn and washed multiple times and they still look new. Having mobility issues, I ride around my home in a wheelchair and Colorado has some cold winters! These allow me the traction I need to propel around my wood floor and I stay so nice and warm!" —Cactus Gramby

Promising review: "My glasses were constantly slipping down my nose! No matter how tight my temple and hinges were adjusted, they would loosen and start to slip. In desperation I tried these! They work! I can now stand hours while teaching and do not need to push up my nose piece. I have had my glasses nearly slip off my nose during lab time, so these are a must for me. They do not put pressure behind your ears either." —carla

In the long run, these caps can maximize savings since you'll no longer be throwing bottles out with residue inside. You can literally get every last drop out! Once one bottle is finished, you can remove the cap, wash it, and use again.
Promising review: "I haven't had the item very long, but I've used them four times on four different bottle sizes with great success. I purchase a lot of large family-size products for the shower and have always hated trying to prop the bottles upside-down, then having gobs of shampoo, body wash, and lotion drip all over the place while removing the pump from the bottle. The various parts have fit with no issue on plastic bottles of varying sizes." —labbyluvr

One side of the pen is the stamp while the other is a regular eyeliner pen. Plus you can feel confident through the day; the stamp is waterproof and smudge-proof.
Promising review: "I'm a makeup junkie and extremely picky with products. I don't actually have any issues with winged liner, but I've been dealing with some shaking issues so thought this might make my routine easier. Not a lot of trial and error, it's very simple to use, and creates a lovely and slightly curved wing. Now about the formula, I'm impressed. I was thinking that I could always go over it with my regular eyeliner, but I found that unnecessary. The liner pen tip didn't drag or skip; it's a very bold and solid black that dries quickly and has amazing staying power." —SaintLee

To clean, just run it under cold water and let air dry. One wrap lasts about a year when used numerous times a week.
Promising review: "Upon initial use I was very curious as to whether these would hold up upon multiple uses, turns out they are extremely easy to wash and reuse! We bought these to cut down on plastic and aluminum wrap waste that we have been using to preserve leftover foods in our refrigerator. I do not have a doubt in my mind that these will last multiple months and beyond. However, I would not suggest using them for raw foods, which could contain bacteria such as raw chicken or other meats; if not washed carefully bacteria may be transferred. Overall this was a pretty solid buy, and it makes us feel great about our mission to cut down on household waste!" —aaronwrex42

I use this serum in the morning right before I head out the door and I love it. It helps the baby hairs around the crown of my head lay flat, instead of sticking straight up.
Promising review: "Terrific product. I squirt a few drops in my palms, then I brush fingers and hands right through my short, but full crop of graying hair. Makes these tresses look ever so shiny and silky while keeping it all in place. Don't even need to use hairspray. I especially like the fact that it's not greasy, nor gummy, nor does it have an odor. It just has a pleasant and unassuming scent. Most of all, this product enhances the natural wave and light curl that I still have. For me, it's best used right after a shampoo and a towel dry." —Valerie C. Bartolo

Promising review: "Finally found a pillow my head and neck enjoy. I recommend this pillow for back and stomach sleepers. Gives great support and soft. Supports both head and neck perfectly. Been on it for a month now and I had no issue as all adjusting to it. Slept great first night on it. No complaints here!" —Kris Hall

The different compartments make packing a multi-food lunch easy and the center unit is leak-proof for liquids. It's freezer-, microwave-, and dishwasher-safe.
Promising review: "I love it! It is a sturdy, attractive, well-designed product that will be enjoyed for years. The five compartments vary in shape and size and will accommodate a variety of foods: fruit, sandwiches, cookies, chips, salsa or dip – you name it! No more need for several zip lock bags just to keep food separate. It worked well in the microwave to heat up some delicious pasta. It can go in the freezer, the microwave and the dishwasher. Best of all, this eco box lives up to its name by being eco-friendly so it will not be clogging up some landfill or floating in the ocean in the years ahead. Meanwhile, I’ll be buying more for my home and for gifts." —John Carroll

I decided to buy this oil a while ago and have zero regrets. I wanted something that would moisturize my face and help with breakouts. This oil did exactly that. I noticed that my complexion overall was smoother and brighter. Without being prompted, more than one person complimented me on my refreshed looking skin! I've also used this in my hair, but in small amounts. If I overuse, I find that it can leave my scalp looking greasy. When I use only one pump and apply to the ends of my hair, I find my hair curls easier and seems fuller.
Promising review: "I'm on my second bottle. It's lightweight, absorbs easily, smells good, and helps my dry hands and nails. I use it on my face; it doesn't clog my pores. I use it on my hair to soften it, 'cause it's on the wavy, coarse side. Very reasonably priced. Customer service is excellent." —J

Promising review: "We bought one of these just to try them out. We live in Montana and the veggies just don't seem to last as long as they did when we lived in AZ or WA. I put some baby spinach in one of the containers and nine days later the spinach literally looks as good as the day I bought it. I bought a three pack from Amazon and just threw a bunch of mixed berries in one and broccoli in another. I am extremely happy with my purchase." —pettyolives

Promising review: "These work unbelievably well for what they're supposed to do. They have incredibly strong adhesive and will keep your cable in place. The rubber is a little harder than the competition making it harder to get the cables in but also harder to get them out. This ends up being a giant plus, making it so that all the cables stay in and don’t fall out." —Khalil

Promising review: "This stuff is amazing and definitely a holy-grail for me. I have naturally oily skin and am acne-prone. This has helped with my acne issues, keeps my oil under control, and really has improved the overall feel and appearance of my skin.

You can keep a log of your hourly schedule, plus top priorities for each day. In the notes section, you can keep track of daily water intake and bills that need to be paid!
Promising review: "I’ve tried just about every type of organization system and nothing really sticks. I end up making a list on scrap paper in the morning and crossing things off as I accomplish them. This planner is perfect for me because it provides the daily structure I was looking for. At night before I go to bed I take five minutes to fill it out for the next day. I’ve been more productive with it and haven’t missed an appointment or deadline. And I just turn it over at the end of the day and use the other side as scrap paper for grocery lists and notes." —A. Elton

Promising review: "As someone who lives in NYC, there is constantly noise being made outside so falling asleep peacefully was a rare event for me. I gave this a try and it's been the BEST IDEA EVER! The sound machine is very well-built and has a nice look and feel to it. It has a bunch of different sounds so everyone can find one that they like and you can even customize the lighting on it according to your preference. I don't like to have it run all night, just until I fall asleep so I use the timer feature. I highly recommend this and will likely be buying some as gifts for upcoming birthdays!" —Dre Walton

I took my Hydro Flask on a hiking trip and it was sheer perfection. It kept my water cold for hours on end, never leaked in my backpack, and took numerous falls without denting. And I never had to use a plastic water bottle the entire trip! This thing held up, no matter how many times I dropped it.
Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE my Hydro Flask! I use it every day and carry it with me anywhere I go. It's been great at keeping my water cold. I left ice in this thing overnight and woke up to ice cold water with still plenty of ice left in it. I've also purposely left it in my car on a 90-degree day in California and I came back to find that the water was still cold. I was amazed!" —Isaias
