Does life feel like a total mess? Absolutely. But that doesn't mean it has to *look* the part.
This comb is also great for people with thin hair! If you want to tease your mane a bit for extra volume, this is the perfect tool to do so.
Promising review: "Love this comb! It's good quality and helps me get that perfectly centered part every time. The metal end helps me keep it in line with my nose, and the little cover it comes with is nice, too, because it keeps the pointy part covered and safe while not in use." —Hanna

This primer is paraben-free and lightweight, plus it's infused with pearl powder to enhance the vibrancy of your shadow AND a sebum-controlling powder to stop oily lids in their tracks.
Promising review: "Let me start by saying that I have used nearly every eyeshadow primer available. From expensive to cheap...none of them hold a candle to this. I have very oily skin, but this primer lets my shadow last a full eight hours or more. I could get maybe five or six out of the other brands if I'm lucky! Thank you to Elizabeth Mott for finally making a primer that lasts! I seriously love this stuff." —Melissa Mae

Promising review: "Oh. My. Gosh!!!! I have tried a LOT of different primers from drugstore to more expensive brands, and none have impressed me the way this one did. I have very oily and sensitive skin, and this primer didn't irritate my complexion or feel heavy. My foundation wears great over it, my makeup stays in place, and it didn't break up or rub off even in the high humidity and heat of a North Carolina summer. Immediately had to buy two more of these after just four uses." —mydestiny524
Get it from Amazon for $18 (also available in an eye shadow primer).
Promising review: "I don't know how I've lived 34 years without this product! It's a total game changer. I just de-fuzzed every piece of clothing I own, and loved every minute of it! I specifically sought this product for my very expensive Lularoe addiction, which I found were getting rather pilly after only a few wears, and everything is like new again!" —Jessica Grzeskowiak
Get it from Amazon for $12.90 (available in seven colors).
Pants bunching up around your ankles = not cute. Fix that problem in a jiffy with this simple tape!
Promising review: "This tape did the job for me! I took them on a cruise for two reasons. First, I didn't have time to properly hem a pair of pants and when applied correctly, the hems stayed in place until the adhesive was removed. Second, short socks always slide off of my heels, so I applied the tape to the inside of the socks and no more problems!" —Paule T.

This brush has a welt surface, nylon bristles, an arched half circle brush, and a protruding brush that lets you clean different kinds of suede with no harsh rubbing or scrubbing required.
Promising review: "BUY THIS THING! I got mud of my new suede boots and thought they were ruined, but this brush completely restored them. I was shocked. I even used it on an old pair of boots from college that I have considered ruined for several years now, and it did wonders on getting rid of the filth on top of the suede. This is absolutely worth getting!" —Gaby Scott

Promising review: "I am clumsy. If it can be spilled, tripped over, dropped, broken, dribbled, or smeared, I'll wind up doing it. Individually wrapped WET WIPES are fabulous at cleaning up what I inevitability mess up. I keep them in my purse, pockets, car, desk drawer, on the patio, and near my computer. I highly recommend you get some. You never know if I'm going to bump into you." —Burke

Psst, you can also use these clothes on phones, camera lenses, computer screens, and any other surface prone to accumulated oil smudges and fingerprints.
Promising review: "MAGIC! This cloth is amazing! We have tried all sorts of cleaners and they made our TV so much worse. Then, while searching Amazon to find yet another 'good' cleaner, I came upon these. It says no cleaner necessary, and they're right! It was that instant gratification you get when you buff the wax off your car. I will be giving these as Christmas gifts for sure!" —Lane

Promising review: "My husband has a thing with red wine and white shirts! We came across this product when he spilled wine on his shirt at a bar in Texas. The waitress brought me this spray and it worked! I now carry a small bottle in my purse. If you like red wine, this is a must-have!" —SMS

Promising review: "My bra straps spend more time off my shoulders than on — but NOT ANYMORE. I was hoping something like this existed and when I found it, I was so happy. They're as glorious as I expected them to be. These are life-changing." —Amanda

Just cover the stamp in eyeliner, apply to your lashline, and BAM! Your wing is done and you haven't had to use/waste 10 makeup wipes to achieve it.
Promising review: "I just want to make my morning routine as easy as possible. I love winged liner, but I don’t have the steady hand for it. This stamp makes a perfect, easy, and consistent wing every time! I love it." —Julie B.

Just massage this oil into your nails and cuticles every night before going to bed. With daily use, your nails will begin to grow and strengthen (seriously, just read the overwhelmingly positive reviews) and your ripped-up cuticles will begin to heal/not look completely terrible.
Promising review: "HOLY GRAIL PRODUCT. All my life, I've had super weak and brittle nails that would instantly break the second they grew out a tiny bit. This oil has changed EVERYTHING!! I’m shocked. I noticed after about a week of nightly use that my nails are growing (fast) and not breaking." —K. Black
Get it from Amazon for $8.50.
Promising review: "All I can say is that these shoelaces have saved me about 25 minutes every morning with my three kids! Great quality, very nice colors ,and super easy to use. Never worry again about having to tighten shoes in the middle of the street!" —ColorMeLife

This dry shampoo is free of sulfates and parabens, and won't leave any icky residue behind on your scalp.
Promising review: "This is my absolute favorite dry shampoo and the only one I will ever buy. I have tried several other well-known brands, but none of them will ever compare to this stuff. Every other brand I have ever tried makes my hair feel straw-like and/or look very dull, but not Klorane. I only spray a little on the roots and comb it through, and then my hair looks glossy and soft again without looking oily. It actually does as promised and makes my roots look and feel shampooed, whereas all the other cheaper brands definitely don't do that. I don't usually spend a lot on individual beauty products, but this dry shampoo is worth the full $20." —ZS
Get it from Amazon for $20.
It's also tough on tomato juice, red wine, mud, makeup, pet stains (BAD BOY), and any other stains that would put a pretty big damper on your day.
This toxic- and cruelty-free concoction is made from vegan ingredients that aren't harmful to pets or children. Oh, and speaking of children! If you have a very young child prone to making a mess of their onesie (they'll be potty-trained one day, right?) you'll want to buy this stain remover ASAP.
Promising review: "I had some super nasty dress shirts that I was about to throw away. No matter how much I washed them, my antiperspirant deodorant was caked up inside the armpits and actually smelled like someone with rank armpits just took it off (not me certainly!?). I put two squirts of this stuff under each armpit and rubbed for about 15 seconds each. Then I tossed all the shirts in the floor for the night, still wet. The next morning, I washed them, took them out of the dryer, and I couldn't believe that the shirts looked and smelled brand new. I love this stuff!" —Don K.

Promising review: "I ordered this to shorten a couple of leather belts, but was nervous because I don't have a lot of hand strength. NOT A PROBLEM! It is easy to operate even for weak little me, and everything you need is included. I had two belts adjusted within five minutes!" —Annie

Shadow fallout usually makes it look as if you haven't slept in 84 years, which is not a good thing when you're supposed to look bright-eyed and bushy-tailed at work.
Promising review: "These shields are just the best! I am someone who does my foundation and concealer before I do my eye makeup. I like dramatic looks, which is often the culprit of the dreaded shadow fallout. Problem solved! Not only do these catch fallout, but they allow for crisper and more even lines on both the bottom and sides of my eyes. Side note, I have almond eyes and they are a bit big, but the shield still covers the entire area that they need to!" —Carolyn Rome

Promising review: "These erasers quickly remove scuff marks without a lot of effort. I recently used them on the white soles of my new tennis shoes (they had gotten brown and grimy from a camping trip). My tennis shoe soles are nice and white again and look much cleaner and nicer!" —Oakland Girl
Get a pack of four from Amazon for $4.34.
Promising review: "HOLY COW, these are such comfy pants. I felt like I had my jammies on all day! They look like slacks, but still manage to feel like leggings. The fit is true to size and they're a great 'business comfy' style option." —Megan R.
Price: $29.99+ (available in sizes 4-16 and in three colors)
Promising review: "I worked in a fine jewelry store for several years that sold this product. I was always impressed with the instant shine the diamond stick provided! The brush tip is very helpful for getting under the stones and in the setting where gunk builds up, which reduces that brilliant shine. I recently got engaged and immediately purchased a diamond dazzle stick of my own. You simply brush, rinse, dry and go. I don't feel this product replaces the need to professionally clean your jewelry every now and then, but it does help with the maintenance of that new, shiny sparkle." —Amazon Customer

This mirror comes with four different light settings: day, office, evening, and home. PLUS! You can alter the magnification on the mirror to get up close and personal with every blemish on your face. While this sounds dreadful, it really does help to put on concealer when you can actually see what you’re trying to conceal (and then blending that concealer out — that way it doesn’t look like there are random blotches of pale orange on your face). Also, this thing is great for when you’re trying to tweeze your eyebrows: It helps you see every one of the little suckers you’re trying to pluck out.

This is designed with a passport slot and five card slots, a removable wristlet, a cellphone pouch, AND a pen holder — all while remaining slim enough to store in your tiny carry-on purse.
Promising review: "Honestly, this is the perfect travel wallet. It fits both of my passports, my phone, a pen, and some cash. I bought it in a bright red color that meant I could find it right away, and the strap is also useful." —Suman S.

This clear liner provides some much-needed moisture for your pout, and prevents lipstick from bleeding. With this, your favorite lipstick will stay PUT.
Promising review: "I'm starting to get those little lines around my mouth that lipstick bleeds into. You know the ones I'm talking about, right?? Ok, well this stuff stops those bleeds in their tracks. I've tried probably 10 different clear lip liners in the past, and this baby gets the job done." —Angie W.
