1. A DIY miniature bookstore model so you can finally run your own (very) small business.
Promising review: "This model has been such an enjoyable build. As of now, I am not completely finished. Having put around 20 hours into it, I'd say I have another eight hours more to go. The pieces are all vibrantly pre-painted, with the exception of one large base piece. The glue and tweezers it comes with are perfect for the job. The cloth I had gotten for the couch was not large enough, but I improvised by using another color cloth (that also came with the kit) for the seat. The attention to detail in this little study is just first class. I even recognized books that I have read/purchased in the past within this model! I am not experienced at all with building wooden kits and I was still able to do this one perfectly with minimal struggle. I will certainly be buying more Robotime models in the near future, the greenhouse one is next :)!" —B.R.J.G.
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (also available in an art studio or greenhouse).
2. Nail wraps sure to bring a smile to your face (and manicure).
3. AÂ sunburn soother crafted with aloe and coconut oil to hydrate skin and turn back time to before you stayed out in the sun a little too long.Â
Psst — a lot of reviewers mentioned this also helped prevent peeling and itching!
Promising review: "I ordered this two weeks ago after seeing rave reviews. So grateful I did. Yesterday I got the worst burn. It was unbelievable. I applied this four times over 24 hours. When I woke up this morning it was a lot better and has just gotten increasingly better throughout the day. The burn is mostly faded, and the pain is so much better. I hope to never burn this badly again, but I will be stockpiling this lotion all the same." —Carolina G.
Get it from Amazon for $7.64.
4. A blooming tea for anyone who expects a good show out of their beverages.
The pack comes with 12 different flavors: Heart Bouquet, Jasmine Lover, Golden Oasis, Floral Passion, Sunset Love, Fairy Lily, Eternal Love, Rising Spring, Shooting Star, Fireplace Bloom, Dancing Leaves, and Enchanting Beauty. Pair it with a glass teapot or pitcher.
Promising review: "I am completely hooked on blooming/flowering teas. I was raised by British parents, so I grew up drinking English Breakfast Tea (which is still delicious), but I found that the milk and sugar I added to it were not always pleasing to my body later on. The flowering tea is extremely refreshing to drink at any time of day and each bloom provides up to three steeps. I usually just fish my bloom out of the teapot with some small tongs and then place it in a little container in the fridge. I also enjoy the variety of teas in this set and just love watching the flower 'bloom.' Also, drinking this tea has given me an excuse to use some of my fancier tea cups so I can pretend I'm relaxing at Downton Abbey." —Sarah Johnston
Get it from Amazon for $19.95.
5. A privacy window film that's easy to install and fills your home with lots of rainbows when the sun hits it just right. Now you can sing "somewheeeere over the rainbow" as you step over your cat.
6. A color-changing shower head so you can have a solo rave party in the shower.
7. A cool kit that lets you make slime you can legit draw on with chalk art markers. How cool is that???
8. A bottle of truffle seasoning to make meals taste extra fancy without having to invest in a truffle-sniffing pig.
Promising review: "Yes, I'm a truffle lover to begin with. And, of course, only a truffle is a truffle. But I gotta tell ya this delectable heaven-sent powder is one heck of an addictive and more versatile option. Utterly AMAZING on popcorn, in eggs, added to soups and sauces to layer flavors, veggies, PASTA...the list is endless (I think the only thing I haven't tried was sprinkling it on ice cream...although LOL). It is a bit salty, so I advise testing the waters first. But I just ordered my 9th and 10th bottle of the Truffle Zest." —Greengirl
Get it from Amazon for $13.12.
9. Handmade braided huaraches that'll be the perfect summer accessory.Â
ArtesanÃas Camila is a Carthage, Texas-based shop from Blanca Olivera. All of their Mexican-inspired huaraches, bags, hats, and apparel are handmade.
Promising review: "These are not just gorgeous shoes — they are comfortable and supportive. I have trouble finding shoes that fit properly (I have a high arch) but these fit great! No blisters or scrapes, plus as soon as they arrived, I could walk over a mile without having to break them in. I get so many compliments on them, too! I highly recommend." —emnkugler
Get them from ArtesanÃas Camila on Etsy for $44.99 (originally $49.99; available in sizes 5–10W and two colors).Â
10. Or Greek-style handmade leather sandals because — let's be real — those flip-flops you've been wearing for the last three years could use an update!
11. A set of fun ice pop molds for satisfying your sweet tooth whenever you want! This'll bring the spirit of the season to your home and your taste buds.
This popsicle tray comes with four ice pop molds.
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in two colors).
12. A wood polish capable of turning back time to before you invited over a guest who forgot a coaster or got a dog with scratchy nails.
Promising review: "This stuff is absolutely AMAZING. My wife and I were getting tired of looking at our worn-out cabinets and wood paneling and were very close to paying a professional thousands of dollars to refinish it all, but then we came across this product. Our paneling and cabinets were looking rough. We have two dogs who jumped up and scratched places. We also had an area that was damaged by water spots where our dog bowls were. Several other areas were just worn from heavy traffic. This stuff was like a magical eraser for water spots, scratches, scuffs, and any other blemish. We simply wiped the product on with a paper towel and let is sit for 20 minutes before wiping it off with a clean towel. Everything looks brand new. I'm buying a couple more so we can finish our cabinets and wood paneling. We're so glad we found this product." —Kris
Get it from Amazon for $8.48.
13. A swan fountain for picky cats who only want to drink out of the faucet. This sleek water fountain will keep them hydrated and save you from having to run to the bathroom every time Fluffy starts yowling because she's thirsty.
Promising review: "One of my cats has a health condition that makes it essential for her to drink as much water as possible, so I decided to try this fountain since it mimics the sink faucet more than the others I have. As soon as I turned it on, she came running and she's loving it. It's small and plastic, so it's lightweight but probably easier to break than the metal one I have. It's very quiet and the other cat (who doesn't seem to care about running water) has no problem drinking from the bowl portion. It was easy to assemble and seems easy to clean." —Bonnie A. Franz
Get it from Amazon for $35.84.
14. A celestial ring complete with a moonstone and crescent moon sporting your initial.
15. A cozy sweatshirt dedicated to one of the greatest breakfasts out there — the BEC!Â
Get it from Shop BuzzFeed for $38 (available in unisex sizes S–5XL and four colors).
16. A trampoline sprinkler so your kids can get sprayed down as they jump. Who needs to go to the water park when you have this?Â
Promising review: "This is awesome!!! Before we found this, the kids were using the hose to stay cool on the trampoline. The hose always turned into a fight — who got to hold it, someone getting sprayed in the face, etc. Now the kids can stay cool and fight about other things! Absolutely recommend this product as it was super easy to set up and makes for a fun way to cool down in the Arizona heat!" —Groveland
Get it from Amazon $25.95+ (available in two colors and styles).
17. A chic Modern Picnic lunch bag that may look like a designer purse from the outside but check the inside and see that it's actually a cooler with insulated walls to keep your meal nice and cold.Â
Modern Picnic is a woman-owned small biz from Ali Kaminetsky.Â
Promising review: "To everyone out there — you NEED this!! You can use this chic classy tote for: lunch for work, snacks for kids, breastmilk transport from work, IVF injectables (so you can actually leave your house and not carry a cooler). I could go on and on! I want one for every season!! Thank you for making my life classier. The Luncher just makes me smile with all the possibilities it can be used for." —Heather
Get it from Modern Picnic for $149 (available in 16 colors/styles).
18. A pack of AirPod cleaners ready to provide some eww-worthy results. Just squish the flexible square into your AirPod speaker, peel off, and try not to gag over all the grossness that's been extracted.
Promising review: "They work as advertised. I use them for my AirPods, iPhone, and iPad Pro." —Lydia Kimble-Wright
Get 24 from Amazon for $15.99.
19. A genius T-shirt roll holder for people whose drawers are full to the point of bursting. Better to get this than to decide which band shirts to toss. *clutches my ancient Interpol tee for dear life*
The Roll Keeper is a small biz based in Kelso, Washington that's run by Traci, who has over 40 years of crafting experience.
BuzzFeed writer Mallory Mower has one and loves it. In her own words:
"Before getting this I was driving myself up the wall with my bad folding habits. I basically shoved all my shirts into the storage drawers under my bed, because I have a teeny tiny closet (the picture above gives you a solid idea of how small it is). This has given me a massive amount of clothing storage I didn't have before. The quality is stellar and Traci is 10/10 the most thoughtful person I've purchased a product from!"
Get it from The Roll Keeper on Amazon Handmade for $19.99.
20. Lightweight slides that'll bring some marshmallow-like style to your at-home look. Suh-weet!
Promising review: "These are so cute and comfortable!! I am so impressed with the fit. I really needed slippers that wouldn’t get stinky after stepping into them from out of the shower. These are going to be so easy to clean and I’ll be able to wear them for a while!" —Sofia Khan
Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (available in sizes 5.5–13 and seven colors).Â
21. A rust removing gel spray – you may be tempted to say "abra cadabra" as you use it. It's that magical!
Use this for cleaning bathtubs, showers, toilets, colorfast fabrics, vertical surfaces, and hard-to-reach spots. It's non-abrasive, and made with non-hydrofluoric acid based formula.
Promising review: "Holy wizardry! Seriously it was more work to clean the mirror over the vanity than use this product. With almost no effort, this made my dark orange, iron-water shower stall white again. I definitely suggest wearing a mask or bandana and running the ventilation fan if spraying in an enclosed area. Great product!" —Jessica B
Get it from Amazon for $5.98.
22. A container of oatmeal paw butter to soothe and relieve your dog's cracked, dry paws. Its eco-friendly formula is pH-balanced so it's safe for cats, even if licked or swallowed. *seriously considers licking it myself to see if it really tastes like oatmeal*
Promising review: "I've tried everything on my Australian shepherd's paws. He licks his paws when they get dry which makes them drier. The vet told me to use coconut oil, he just licked that off. I don't think he liked the taste of the Paw Butter so he left it on and by the next morning, I saw a significant improvement." —C. Castro
Get it from Amazon for $7.59.
23. A giant 1-pound bag of marshmallows for anyone who picks the boring cereal out of Lucky Charms. I don't blame you if you end up taking romantic selfies with the bag.
Promising review: "Buying these charms was one of the best decisions of my life. The bag is twice the size of my head. The marshmallows are aesthetically pleasing and delicious. It's everything I ever wanted in a snack." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $10.99.
24. A scalp and hair mist from Sun Bum with SPF 30 to protect your noggin from the elements. Say goodbye to sun-damaged hair and burnt scalps.Â

26. A pair of simple hoop earrings with fun charms on the studs/plugs for a look that won't succ.

Get them from MetallyFlower on Etsy for $23+ (available in 12 sizes).
27. An Iron Flask insulated thermo mug that works just as well as competitor's to keep liquids hot or cold, but at a fraction of the price.
Promising review: "When searching for a water bottle, I initially was tempted to get a Hydro Flask, but found this Iron Flask was cheaper. What sold the Iron Flask for me was that while it does keep water immensely cold over long periods of time, like the Hydroflask, the Iron Flask comes with two additional lids and an extra straw. I like to use the water bottle whereever I go, and when filled with light ice, it has kept the water ice cold for up to 6+ hours. I have run my bottle into things by accident, and it has held up well. I've also knocked it over and left it on its side while driving, and there has been no leakage. Overall, if you're looking for an alternative to the Hydro Flask without breaking the bank, the Iron Flask is more affordable, and better from what I've experienced." —Marissa
Get it from Amazon for $17.95+ (available in six sizes and 12 colors).Â
28. A Marshmallow Whip Maker loved by TikTokers thanks to its ability to turn your hum-drum cleanser into light frothy foam. Foam = easier to apply and less friction bothering your skin.
29. An inexpensive gaming keyboard with an LED backlight that's almost as entertaining as the games you're gonna play with it.
Promising review: "This keyboard was a surprise. Considering the cost, it was a most welcome surprise. The box was the first indication that something special was going on; it was a quality printed cardboard container, not pasteboard or brown cardboard. The keyboard has a nice solid feel and weight. The feet are firm elastic material and it stays put on the desktop. The USB cable has a nice molded end and has a velcro cable management tie installed — a nice touch. When powered on, the keyboard lights go through several patterns before all keys illuminate and the LEDs on the sides start a 'breathing' effect. Several light patterns are built in for various games. You can adjust the key lighting levels and create custom game patterns. The keycap font is a bit funky but readable. I touch type so the font is not a major concern." —James
Get it from Amazon for $25.99.

30. A lantern and fan hybrid you can hook to the top of your tent, because who said you can't take a ceiling fan on a camping trip?
Promising review: "I went camping this week, and I just hate when it's sooooo darn hot in the tent, and of course there's no place to put a fan AND a light. This one worked perfectly. It hung by it's built in hook to the top of the tent, the light was just right, and the fan was quiet and effective for a two-person tent. Happy I bought it." —Kevin Gaither
Get it from Amazon for $20.84.
31. Flavored bubbles with scents like root beer float and cotton candy you can blow in the direction of your pet for some tasty fun.
32. A humidifier that looks like a little dog ready to blast off into space in their reindeer rocket ship. Why isn't this a movie yet?
It can last up to 10 hours and has seven LED colors.
Promising review: "I can honestly say I was shocked to find this little gem, especially for the price. I have used it daily since it arrived at my doorstep. I’ve been taking it back and forth from home to work, but I will Instead buy a second one, and most likely a couple more as gifts, as Christmas is around the corner." —Helen Quigley
Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in four colors).
33. Cruelty-free lengthening mascara that's lightweight, won't transfer, doesn't smudge, and lasts all day — oh and makes your eyelashes look like tall, beautiful skyscrapers.
Promising review: "Love this mascara! I’ve used the 'best of the best' designer, super hyped, ultra popular mascara available and NOTHING compares to this stuff! I don’t even bother using a lash curler anymore! I buy two at a time so I always have a spare (yes, it’s that good!!). I highly recommend this particular mascara...it goes on effortlessly, it lasts pretty much all day, and the price — I feel like I’m almost stealing it! I’d give it 10 stars if I could!!!" —chulaboola
Get it from Amazon for $4.99.
34. A candle with a cow pattern on the top that miiiight make you hesitant to light it, but you will just to smell the desert ghost flower scent.
35. A Lisa Frank stationery super pack with over 2,200 stickers so you can relive in your childhood in all its Technicolor glory.

Get it from Amazon for $14.95.
36. A smart electric toothbrush that comes in black or pink monochrome. If Barbie (and goth Barbie) had a toothbrush, this would be it.
37. A trio of Glossier's ultra-popular lip balm here to soothe your cracked and dry lips. There are seven amazing scents to choose from so you're definitely gonna want all three.
There are eight varieties — two are un-tinted and one is unscented.
Promising review: "I highly recommend. I love Glossier Balm Dotcoms! They’re so hydrating and protective on the skin/lips. If you would like to use the Balm Dotcom as a skin salve, go with one that doesn’t have a tint. I own the cherry and the berry ones and I absolutely love them! These two especially can work as makeup because they have a stronger tint. I use them every day because I love how they look natural, but add a little extra something to my look while giving me the hydration my skin desires." —Ariana
Get three from Glossier for $36.
38. A sampling of tasty apéritif cocktails so you can try them all and pick a favorite.Â
With flavors like lemon lavender and grapefruit jalapeño I truly don't know how you'd only be able to choose just one. This set includes four 200mL bottles that make about two to three drinks each.
Get it from Haus for $50 (available with seven flavors to choose from).
