1. This Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask that fizzes up to gently massage any build-up out of your pores. You can actually feel the oil leaving your skin, which I'm pretty sure is something that all acne-afflicted people want to experience.
"This face mask was awesome. It was fun, didn't take long, and it's fun as hell to Snapchat. What else could you ask for in a face mask? It also left my face feeling amazing. My skin was a little red after, which I actually didn't mind, because it hadn't felt that clean in weeks. The next morning when I woke up the redness was completely faded and I just felt... cleaner. I would definitely use this again!" —Lara Parker (read their whole review of the Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Mask)

2. A set of silicone waffle tongs with a beveled edge that'll help you grab your fluffy breakfast treats without puncturing them. They're awesome for serving and for getting your waffles from a hot iron to your plate.

3. An oil-absorbing volcanic roller from Revlon that will banish unwanted shininess from your face. It's reusable, so you definitely get more bang for your buck than you would with blotting papers.

5. A microgreen garden that doubles as a fish tank. In this closed-looped ecosystem, the plants clean the water and the fish feed the plants, so everyone gets what they need. All you need to do is find a fish to adopt!

It comes with everything you need to get started: a shatter-resistant fish tank, gravel, organic seeds, grow stones, and natural de-chlorinator.
Get it on Amazon Canada for $120.12.
6. A facial hair epilator that removes hair at its root, instead of shaving it off, so your peach fuzz will grow back thinner and less coarse. Reviewers love that it's a more budget-friendly option than waxing and say it's pretty painless, too.
7. A corn-stripping device that cuts kernels off cobs of corn with the greatest of ease. It has a curved design that allows it to get closer to the cob, so you're not left with mushy half-pieces (my worst nightmare).
My mom got this for me because I have a fake front tooth from a swimming accident (lol) and can't sink my teeth into hard foods. This little guy has come in handy for barbecues, picnics, and everything in between. The curved shape of the handle makes it easy to hold and it's way easier to maneuver than a knife.

8. A bestselling gel toilet stamp that cleans away stains and rings with every flush. It's also scented, so your bathroom will always smell fresh, no matter what goes on in there.

This baby will save you from getting down on your hands and knees to scrub down your toilet bowl because it does the work with every flush. Using it is simple: load the gel cartridge into the stamper and click the button to apply the gel sticker to your toilet bowl. It's actually really satisfying to use and I'm happy to report it works, too! It keeps my toilet smelling fresh and saves me from having to scrub away gross build-up on the bowl, meaning I have one less chore to do every week. Each pack comes with 24 stamps and each stamp lasts about 12 days.

10. A vibrating massage fork that you can use to relieve spasms, relax tight muscles, and apply pressure to your pesky trigger points. It can even help relieve migraines and headaches, if ice packs and hot compresses just aren't doing the trick.
11. A double-basket grilled cheese toaster that'll help you craft ooey-gooey, golden-brown sammies without even firing up your stovetop. It has a toasting dial on the side that allows you to pick your ideal level of doneness, so your sandwich is never over or undercooked.

Get it on Amazon Canada for $41.97. Also available in a style with extra-wide slots.
12. A distressed ponytail hat that allows you to rock your hair at Ariana Grande height and shield yourself from the sun at the same time. Now you don't have to mess with your signature look when you want to rock a baseball cap.

19. A pair of exfoliating konjac facial sponges that will help clear up your complexion, improve your skin texture, and rid your face of impurities. If you're lost: konjac is a plant, so these bad boys are 100% natural, vegan and biodegradable.
20. An eight-piece set of Sailor Moon-inspired makeup brushes to help you contour, buff, and blend your makeup to perfection. They're super cute, so you'll definitely want to keep them displayed on your vanity.
