The coffee comes in individual packets that you can mix with hot water (add some ghee or milk for a creamier taste). It tastes like a milder coffee and can provide a less intense energy boost without the jitters. Read more about why one BuzzFeed writer likes this coffee (#3).
Promising review: "I have no idea if there will legitimately be any real benefits to ingesting these 'super-'mushrooms in my coffee, but what I do know is this: They taste good, and they leave me less jittery than regular coffee. That could be just the result of drinking slightly less coffee in my coffee, but either way, it satisfies my craving for coffee and it tastes good." —Kate O'Neill

This thing is so easy and convenient! Just paint your chompers with the pen four times a day and avoid food or drink for 15 minutes after application. Testers have seen visible results after just a month. In fact, BuzzFeed Reviews names this one of the best whiteners you can buy.

Promising review: "I bought the original 18 years ago and have bought three since (binding falls apart — alas). I have a very large collection of cookbooks, but I go back to the original over and over and over. I have now read the updated version (okay, I've read it three times now). It is every bit as good and adds pieces here and there that update to today. I have cooked a couple of recipes already, and they do not disappoint. The idea of knowing you can plan ahead is a good theme and carried out well. I miss her dessert section but the original is still around so I can go there if I need to. I will continue to cook out of both editions. I would point out three things though — the updated book has pictures, a great bread recipe, AND the pages wipe clean!" —Amazon Customer

These minimize digital eye strain to avoid any midday crashes or wooziness caused by your glaring screen so you actually stay in the zone. Read one BuzzFeed editor's review on a similar pair of blue light-blocking glasses in "8 Life-Changing Things To Try In December" (#1).
Promising review: "I love these glasses! I work at nighttime in an office with really bright fluorescent lights and two screens; we turn a third of the lights off and I showed everyone on my shift how to dim our screens to help with eye strain, but I found I was still having frequent eyestrain and needing to massage my temples. We aren't allowed to download blue light filters to help, either, and many of my coworkers suffer from frequent migraines. I have been looking for a way to relieve strain on my eyes and these were absolutely the answer. I use these even at home on my own computer while writing, and I don't exactly know how to describe the difference other than just that my eyes feel more 'relaxed'. My eyes haven't been in pain since I got them, and seriously, I forgot to wear them for about 20 minutes the other day, and my eyes were right back to feeling how they had." —Cam

Promising review: "I have platinum blonde hair and harsh water. My hair easily gets discolored no matter how little I wash it. I have used a number of high-end purple shampoos and thought they were all great quality. Until now. I didn't realize what I was missing in my life. I left this shampoo on for maybe three minutes and now my hair looks freshly-toned to an icy blonde. I'll never live my life again without this shampoo." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I wish I had a funny review here, but B.O. is no joke! I work out hard, I sweat hard, and sweat stinks! I also run my own incredibly busy business and have two small kids. Every minute of my day counts and showering early in the day is a luxury that I don’t always get to indulge in! But that leaves me smelling 'straight out the locker room' for a large part of my day before I get to shower — no good! Enter these — they're a game changer! I work out, sweat like a boss, wipe down, and voila: no longer offensive! In fact, I actually smell and feel fresh! Big fan!" —Anna Palestis Frenkel

Promising review: "This magnetic planner is wonderful! It is the perfect size for the refrigerator.

Great way to keep two working parents up to date as well as a meal planner." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I love these! I'm a college student who takes notes a lot, and these are perfect for using on rented textbooks (which you can't write in). The tabs are nice and there's just enough space on each paper to put down important information. Nice thick paper; it's sticky from one edge to about halfway to the other edge so it stays on pretty well." —maria17

Promising review: "Let me start by saying that I never take the time to write reviews — and I purchase half of everything we buy on Amazon. However, as a former LLR obsessed mom of 2 toddlers, I felt called to make time to review these leggings. If you are reading this and wondering how these compare to LLR leggings, I am here to tell you I am confident LLR is ripping loyal customers off by charging $25-30+. These leggings are just as soft. They fit the same, if not better. They do NOT PILL if you wash cold and hang dry. I truly feel like I’m wearing “butter leggings” or “like I’m naked” or whatever other claims LLR makes. The price is obviously better and more fair in my opinion."—Jen Wolfe

These are Keto-approved! There's no oats, refined sugar, grains, or gluten. Just nuts, chocolate, coconut flakes, and other goodness to keep you going. My favorite is the bourbon vanilla, which I eat in a mug with some milk. It tastes great and leaves me just as full as when I have half a bagel for breakfast. Besides eating with milk, you can also use it as a topping or eat it right out of the bag.

Promising review: "Fantastic dog grooming aid! Our older rescue dog isn't too keen on the routine dog brushing stuff but her thick coat really needs the grooming — this dog grooming glove is the exactly right answer. Put the glove on, pet the dog, and all that loose hair comes away leaving her coat feeling so much smoother and softer without causing her to be nervous or upset over a brushing. Highly recommend, and yes I'm going to be ordering as gifts for a couple of other dog owners I know!" —DSP

Seriously, just get it wet and go to town. These get rid of all my waterproof eye makeup in three seconds flat. Any facial microfiber towel will do it, but this brand is extra fluffy and luxurious.
Promising review: "Buying makeup wipes is both expensive (in the long run) and just a general pain. These towelettes are definitely reusable and washable. If you toss them into the washer and dryer, they look good as new. No matter how they look, however, they work perfectly fine and definitely get all of my makeup out. I've also used it before as a washing towel when I take a bath. Basically it cleans extremely well and is gentle on your skin. Also, I like this product because I have sensitive skin and can't handle a lot of the makeup wipes that are on the shelves. These cloths are super gentle." —Winifred Pooh

Promising review: "I seriously can't believe how well these little tablets work. I had the most disgusting HydroFlask coffee mug — I tried everything. Bottle brush, different kinds of soap, vinegar, EVERYTHING, and there was still a seemingly impenetrable layer of black sludge inside. It grossed me out so much that I bought ANOTHER HydroFlask to replace it. Now eventually they both got black inside, so I tried these little magic tablets. I let a tablet sit in each of my mugs for an hour or two, and the black sludge rinsed out COMPLETELY, without even scrubbing. They look brand new. What a magical product. No weird smell or taste afterward, either. I liked it so much I used it on another HydroFlask I use primarily to hold my Bloody Mary mix in the fridge. I couldn't put anything else in it because it would always taste like spicy tomato juice. Bottle Bright to the rescue! No residual smell or taste anymore. AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I've used this twice so far and I just ordered two more tubes. It's amazing. My hair hasn't been this soft since I was a child. The most amazing part is that while it adds luster and softness, my hair isn't greasy at all. I have straight hair that has become damaged/frizzy from coloring and highlighting. I LOVE this conditioner." —Nancy

Promising review: "I was somewhat skeptical as to whether or not these would work, but much to my delight, they work very well! The real test were the organic strawberries I bought. They've been in the bag in the refrigerator for eight days now and are still edible. Usually when I buy strawberries, they get mushy and moldy within a day or two. The other veggies I've used these bags for are also doing better than they normally do without the bag. More often than I'd like to admit, we buy a bunch of fruits and veggies and they go bad before we eat them. Thankfully, these bags are extending their edibility, so I'm not having to feed them to the chickens and donkeys. I'm very pleased with my purchase and definitely recommend them." —Dallas Shopper

Promising review: "Holy smokes. Do yourself a favor and get this. This little guy gets the job done. I used it to clean out my car that transports two active, filthy children who apparently cannot manage to get french fries in their mouths, and one long haired Nordic dog whose only response to anything is 'shed immediately'. It did better than any vac at a car wash. The crevice tool got all the crumbs out of the gear shift spot. I don't even know how those crumbs get there, because that's not, like, prime food real estate. Whatever. Get this and you'll be pleasantly surprised at how nice your car looks for all of 40 seconds before the kids/dogs pile back in." —Keeks

The S4 is a good vacuum for smaller homes with hardwood or low-pile carpet floors. It connects to your phone so you can map out where you'd like it to clean. If you need something for higher carpets or want a mopping feature, check out the S5 model.
Promising review: "LOVE this vacuum!! I was hesitant at first because I wasn't sure if all of the reviews were being honest about how good it was. However, after watching some YouTube reviews and hearing from a friend who bought S5 five months prior (she really likes it), I decided to give it a try. I love everything about the vacuum but the top two are noise level (so amazing how it doesn't get on my nerves like so many other brands — sometimes I can't even hear it when it's in another room!) and reliability. I can actually run a full cycle without having it caught in something. I can now run it with assurance and the little helper is docked in its place after an entire-house cleaning upon returning from work (it's been a little less than 2 months and has yet to fail). Such a relief after an exhausting day at work." —J

Promising review: "I am a "seasoned" nurse. I am approaching 30 years of working 12 hour(and longer) shifts on concrete. I am here to tell you, protect yourself, if you work on concrete. The human body isn't made to do it hour after hour. I have chronic plantar fasciitis. I've had the prescription orthotics, approaching $500, I've had the drug store cushions and I have had those ridiculous ones where you stand on the machine at the store and it chooses a style for you. These are easily as good as my $500 pair. I put these in all my shoes(they have some for heels too!). I did upsize my shoes by a half size rather than trim these. My husband and a son are now getting PF so I bought them each a pair as well. You can take out the original insoles and put these in your shoes. They make even cheap unsupportive shoes better. Yes, you need rigid support not more cushion if you have PF. I didn't have to break mine in and neither did my husband, but podiatrists usually suggest you wear the expensive pairs for ~4 hours the first day and work up from there." —TamilynS

Seriously, just brush your brows up and then out; it's that easy. I used to use Boy Brow all the time and loved how natural my eyebrows would look, even if I used a color that was much darker than my natural hair color. It's way easier to use than a traditional eyebrow pencil. Read another, more in-depth review of this eyebrow magic (#5).

These straws are made of 100% non-toxic, BPA-free materials, so sip away with no worries! They come with a cleaning brush.
Promising review: "I use these straws almost daily for smoothies, water, and juice. The colors in this set are great, and I've found strange joy in matching the straw to the color of my drink! I've also found that I drink water much more quickly using a straw than when drinking directly from the cup, so these are great for keeping me hydrated at home. Haven't tried putting them through the dishwasher, but they're super easy to clean in the sink with the included brush. These straws are sturdy and thick-walled, and I don't see them breaking anytime soon." —jackie
