Promising review: "This product is amazing with amazing results. I have adult hormonal acne problems and this wash clears it up. It does dry out the skin so monitoring the dryness is necessary. I use this with a light moisturizer to help balance my skin. I definitely recommend this wash for people struggling to clear up stubborn acne." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I was initially hesitant on purchasing a silicone shower brush since I was so used to shower poufs. However, this beats the poufs hands down! Not only does it lather well, I also feel significantly cleaner. The finger holes on the back make using it even more simple, since it can get a little slippery. Unlike a pouf, it does not hold any hair or other 'grossness' from the shower, and it is super simple to clean. I love it. I'm never going back to poufs!" —Nikki

And while this adhesive is super strong, it won't damage your wall surface when you're ready to remove it.
Promising review: "Holds my toothbrush AND razor comfortably on the wall of my shower. The plastic has a frosted texture finish which, coupled with the drainage hole in the bottom, have kept any buildup or gunk from forming inside the holder. The Command adhesive has held beautifully and can be removed very easily thanks to the part of the holder that lets the adhesive tab stick out." —R. Wilson

Promising review: "I was desperate to find something for our master bathroom shower, which doesn't have a ledge or anything to leverage my foot/leg on while shaving! For years, it looked like I was playing air guitar with my leg while shaving. This plastic stool is the perfect size and height and I'm sure it will last for many years! (I once invested in something that was expensive and teak wood but that stained our tile.)" —Justine K.

Luv Scrub is a Black woman-owned business founded by Caroline Owusu-Ansah, who is introducing people to West African methods of mesh exfoliation one customer at a time. This product is so popular it's often sold out, so go go go!
"I'm so obsessed with this exfoliator that I'm just choosing to forget all the years I lived without it. First of all, it suds up my body wash like nobody's business — I probably have to use about a quarter as much of it now to get really sudsy good coverage. It's flexible and extendable, which makes it ridiculously easy to reach places all over my body, in particular my shoulders and back. You can bunch it up to your preferred thickness if you want more of a light exfoliation or a deeper one in different places of your body. As someone who has had bumpy and rough skin on my arms, I noticed a MASSIVE difference in the smoothness of my skin from the very first use. I also just love the pop! of pink in my shower, it makes me happy to look at it." —Emma Lord

Promising review: "I was diagnosed with sensitive skin and perfume allergy and this is the only product that does not make me itch. All other fragrance-free advertised products still contain fragrance right in the ingredients. I was also impressed with the silky smoothness of this body wash and the fact that it didn’t completely dry out my skin. This has been a total game-changer for me." —Carrie

Promising review: "I've been very impressed! It's tall enough to fit easily over my pop-up drain and (even without suction cups) the weighted top keeps it in place. I have medium-length hair and seem to shed almost as much as my cat, but the drain protector catches it all and the hair is easily removed and tossed away. Best of all, the silicone doesn't hold onto mildew or mold. I have been able to spray and wipe away any grime with very little effort. It looks like this drain protector will last a very long time. This has been a very worthy purchase!"—Suneimi

This mirror also comes with a super strong adhesive wall hook that will stay put in your shower.
Promising review: "I was concerned about putting a mirror in the shower because it might break, but this is a very hard acrylic mirror so that there are no breakage concerns. The mirror works perfectly as long as you remember to preheat it by running it under the hot water of the shower (that way it doesn't fog up). Shaving in the shower not only has the advantage of resulting in a closer and smoother shave, but it also saves a little bit of time because I'm not having to do the extra prep work involved with shaving at the sink." —NoNoBaddog
Get it from Amazon for $9.32.
Promising review: "You guys. I’m embarrassed to even show you this. The grout around our tub was DISGUSTING. It was never caulked right and it got gross very quickly. I would scrub. The cleaning lady would scrub. It would get worse. Well, I came across this in a BuzzFeed list, and this stuff made me curious. I don’t know why it doesn’t have 10,000 good reviews. Seriously. All I did was squeeze it on and walk away. I let it sit overnight. Check this out. Buy it. Like today." —KarynB

Some reviewers say it's great for camouflaging grays, if you're into that.
Promising review: "I have naturally dark, chestnut hair and I had gotten tired of the expense of coloring in the salon and the damage it was doing to my hair. I spent the last year growing out all the damage from highlights and color. My hair was healthy and shiny, but it started getting gray! This provided unbelievable results. Not only did this camouflage the gray hairs by tinting them blonde, but it gave my overall natural color a rich, lustrous shine. This is well worth the money." —Lisa Combs

Use a pea-sized amount of this vegan and cruelty-free product up to three times a week! Pro tip: It's got a minty scent that will totally wake you up on mornings when even three cups of coffee can barely help keep your eyes open.
Promising review: "This is literally the best. My hair got to a point where I would wash it and it would get greasy the next morning, but this literally reset my hair. Now my favourite thing in the world." —Annika S.
Get it from Frank Body for $18.95.
This FlexiSnake is great for sinks and showers in which the water takes forever to go down, plus it's reusable — just clean with hot water and soap after each use.
Promising review: "Immediately pulled up a disgusting amount of hair from my drain. I had used Drano multiple times to no avail; this is a much better solution. I agree with other reviewers that it’s a bit hard to clean off, but not impossible. Worth it for the price." —Ali
Get it from Amazon for $8.99.
Promising review: "This is the best shampoo I’ve ever used! I have long, fine, highlighted hair that I can’t wash my hair every day, so my shampoo has to cut through a somewhat greasy scalp and still be gentle since my hair is super fine. With this, my hair doesn’t look oily on the second day and it’s manageable until I wash it every other day. It’s by far the best shampoo I’ve ever used." —lochall
Get it from Sephora for $20.
Promising review: "I've only been using this for a week. I have severe back acne discoloration and scarring, and I've already noticed a DRAMATIC difference in how my skin looks and feels! I'm thrilled with the results. I use this every night with the Mario Badesco AHA body wash." —Mariah

Just add water to the sponge before proceeding to scrub away at any dirty surface.
Promising review: "I never thought I'd be able to get the weird pink soap stains out of my tub. Picture someone scrubbing with cleaning products until their arms were sore, to no avail. But this worked with no effort! It's unbelievable. Please never let this go off the market!" —Catherine King

An FYI that this holy grail shampoo and conditioner duo is sulfate-, paraben-, and drying alcohol-free.
Promising review: "Holy grail and beautiful smell! It leaves my bleached, damaged hair feeling beautiful. It really is wonderful for hair that has been through a lot like mine, lol. This does not weigh down your hair or make it greasy — just makes it soft, shiny, and beautiful." —Lexi

Promising review: "I have very hard water and we are constantly battling lime buildup on our faucets. This stuff really helps break it down so it can be scrubbed away. I also used it on a stainless pan that my husband unfortunately scorched. After a year of living with a blackened bottom, this stuff left it gleaming and looking brand new! I plan on tackling the grimy sheet pans next." —Brimming Bookshelves
Get it from Amazon for $8.83.
Promising review: "These things are awesome! I cleaned my bathroom tile grout first because the lady who lived there before me really let it go. A few places stayed stained and I was worried it wouldn't cover them, but all grout areas are bright white and look new after using this." —Donna K Cook

Promising review: "This body wash is my new permanent addition to the morning shower regimen. It's gentle on my skin, non drying ,and causes me no breakouts from sensitivities. It lathers up great so a little goes a long way. The price is very reasonable so I'll be buying the body wash and trying out the other Puracy items in their product line." —The Northwest Buckeye

This pH-balanced bar uses orange, cinnamon, ginger, and salt for bouncy hair.
Promising review: "I have been using this frizz wrangler shampoo bar for a month now and I am amazed by it! First of all, it cleans my hair well — so well that I can now go three days between washing! (With other shampoos, my hair would be greasy and flat by day two.) It is so light, doesn’t weigh my hair down, lathers well, and rinses clean. It’s important to let the bar dry out completely in between uses so it doesn’t crumble and disintegrate." —P. Bin
