1. Estée Lauder Double Wear Foundation provides 24-hour coverage and can even survive humidity, heat, and other factors that might try to mess up your look.
Promising review: "This stuff is so amazing. Let me tell you. I think I've found my life foundation. This is the longest-wear makeup I've ever owned with the best coverage. I have been through many many products, some of them I actually like pretty well but I believe this is the crown jewel of them all. I work 12-hour shifts in a hot trailer lifting pretty heavy stuff and when I get home I still look like a fabulous goddess. I gave a bottle of this to my best friend and she also adores it. We love you Estée Lauder. Thank you so much." —PlattKatt
Get it from Sephora for $48 (available in 42 shades).

3. Tifara Beauty's bendy foam curling rods that offer a traditional way to get awesome curls without the pain of hard plastic rollers.
Promising review: "Obsessed! Every night I curl my hair with these babies I wake up in the morning feeling not only like P. Diddy but an ultimate curly-headed goddess of beautiful sunshine! It brings my natural curl to life like I can't possibly manage with a curler alone. The compliments roll in like the latest storm and inflate my head to a size that requires even more curlers that very night. Loving it! Works great, too easy to use, and makes me look and feel great. Every day is a great hair day with these amazing magic workers! Do yourself a favor and get you some." —Jessica Pierre

4. A sliding magnet you can adjust to reflect the current state of the dishwasher. Never again will you accidentally wash the dishes twice — or worse, put away dirty dishes.

Get it from Amazon for $6.79 (available in five styles).
5. 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.
6. A magnetic meal planning pad with a detachable shopping list so you don't have to hem and haw about what to make for dinner.
Promising review: "So cute, and helpful to keep on track with meal planning. I liked the first one I ordered so much that I just ordered a second one. I love that it has magnets on the back so that I can put it on my fridge and the whole family can see what's for dinner each night. Perforated for easy list removal that doesn't affect the menu side." —Elizabeth Jeter
Get it from Amazon for $9.95.
7. A container of oatmeal paw butter that'll 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 wish I would’ve taken before and after photos to show how well this works. My Rottweiler had cracked and dry paws; after two days of using this product, her paws are healing and smooth. She has sensitive skin and other products have caused issues, but not this one! 11/10 would recommend this product." —N. HESTER
Get it from Amazon for $9.50.
8. Budget-friendly waterproof eyebrow wax gives your brows a little love. Just swipe on the clear, organic formula to shape, then add your favorite eyebrow gel or pencil on top for color if needed.
Promising review: "I absolutely love this and am amazed at how fuller my brows look! Application is also super easy and quick! I took three pictures. Top picture is before I applied it. Middle picture is after application. Third picture is after I've drawn a line under my brow to clean up the look and filled in some sparse areas." —P.A.
Get two from Amazon for $7.99.
9. A wood polish that can miraculously erase water stains and scratches. It's time to start treating your furniture with respect!
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 that 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 it 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 $9.98.
10. A nail and cuticle oil to bring life back to your damaged nails, even if you did something really bad like — gasp! — peel off a gel manicure.
Promising review: "Found it on TikTok and I’m so pleased with the results. My nails are getting stronger and growing. And the best of all, not chipping. Love it." —sidna saavedra
Get it from Amazon for $9.90.
11. A mini fabric steamer that'll ease the wrinkles out of your squished clothing faster than it would have taken to pull out the ironing board.
It heats up in 90 seconds so this thing is FAST!
Promising review: "This product has changed my daily routine in THE most positive way!! I don't go ANYWHERE in clothing that is not crisp, clean and professional looking, but the time, and money, that I have to invest to look this way can be VERY time consuming and costly. NOT ANY MORE!!! I love the size, portability and ease of use. I can now lessen my trips to the dry cleaner (and the requisite hunting for dry cleaner coupons). If this pup even acts like it's getting ready to stop working, I'll be online ordering a new one to be delivered STAT!!" —Snowdenr
Get it from Amazon for $27.97.

12. An electric pressure washer to help you blast away every speck of dirt on your outdoor furniture.
It comes with five quick-connect cleaning tips so you can choose the perfect one for the task at hand — including a tip for soap, which you can use to easily wash your car. It generates up to 2030 psi and has a two-year warranty.
Promising review: "I just power washed my deck and I'm amazed at this machine! The quality of the build is strong, the controls and intuitive, an the instructions are easy to understand. It did a perfect job cleaning my deck and I'm going to use it to power wash my patio and front porch for painting. I intend to use it for car washing since I can't find a good car wash that actually cleans the entire car. This will do what any coin op car wash can do for sure. The wind up hose is very convenient, and the detergent dispenser works like a charm." —James E VanDyke
Get it from Amazon for $166.90.
13. A genius soap dispenser and sponge caddy that keeps the soap directly under the sponge so you can apply more suds with a single push down.
Promising review: "I absolutely love this! I leave my sponge on top and do not have to reach under the sink to get my bulky Dawn dish soap bottle from under the sink every time I need it. It looks clean, and my friends that have noticed it said something about it. I highly recommend it." —Lisa Camarena
Get it from Amazon for $11.49 (available in three colors).
14. An eyeliner with a triangle-shaped stamp so you can just stamp and go. No more erasing and retrying one million times!
You get two dual-sided pens: one each with the left and right wings. The other sides have straight eyeliner.
Promising review: "This product is super easy to use. You stamp, fill in the rest of the way with the pen, and your done! No having to keep going back and forth from one eye to the other fixing your mistakes, creating a bigger, bolder line to cover up your imperfections, or constantly wiping off and redoing. I love this stamp!" —ashley
Get the set of two pens on Amazon for $14.97
15. 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 nonabrasive and made with nonhydrofluoric 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 $4.98.
16. A portable personal blender so you can start every morning with a nutritious breakfast even if you have to have it while running out the door.
Plus, this is shatter-resistant, dishwasher-safe, and comes with an ice cube tray and funnel! ANDDD it's quiet, so you'll feel comfortable making your smoothie at work.
Promising review: "This blender is amazing! I am a yoga teacher and always on the run, which sometimes makes it hard to eat well. I bought this after reviewing quite a few different options and I am SO glad I did. It fits well into my gym bag, is surprisingly quiet when in use, and holds a charge really well. The blades are very efficient and I’ve had no trouble blending up ice or frozen fruit. Seriously cannot recommend it enough." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $31.44+ (available in two colors).
17. A set of itty-bitty dermaplaning razors that will make quick work of peach fuzz, stray hairs, and eyebrows in need of a touch-up.
This tool also helps soften skin by gently exfoliating as you use it!
Promising review: "I saw these on TikTok and was skeptical, but they work so well. I use them for any facial peach fuzz and to shape my eyebrows, and they're perfect." —Megan Kopicko
Get a set of three from Amazon for $5.94.
18. A pet hair remover if you'd prefer your furniture to be fur-free. You can tell Fido to stay off the couch all you want, but dogs don't speak Human! Instead, use this roller to reclaim your seating.
Promising review: "Where has this been all my cat-loving life? Sticky rollers work fine for clothes, but this is the only product that has ever COMPLETELY removed all the cat hair from my bed. I have a long-haired 20-pound tabby, and if you run your hands up his back a few times and fling the hair everywhere, it looks like it's snowing — he never stops shedding no matter what I do. After using the ChomChom, I can put on a black dress and roll around on my bed and not get a single hair on me. It's absolutely amazing. Everyone is getting one for Christmas, even if they don't have a pet. I don't care — it's THAT good." —Stephanie
Get it from Amazon for $25.45.
19. A liquid lipstick that some might call "independent." It'll stay on your lips all day long, without flaking or smudging, so you won't feel like you have to monitor it all day like a babysitter.
Promising review: "This goes on and stays on! I love this lipstick line and plan on buying several more colors. The Blush On is a perfect mix of red and pink in my opinion and does favor the pink side of the color spectrum which I absolutely love. Apply the lipstick, wait two minutes (if you put your lips together after a min before the moisturizer, they can stick together and ruin your look), apply the moisturizer, and you are good to go. I typically only have to apply the moisturizer one or two times throughout the day depending on how much I eat or drink. Love this line!" —BestlaRose
Get it from Amazon for $8.98 (available in 45 colors).
20. A foaming lavender bath with pure Epsom salts to soothe the body and create the most sudsy bath experience ever.
While you're in that extra deep bath, you might as well go all out and add some bubbles.
Promising review: "I love this stuff soooo much. I have had some rash issues on my fingers ever since I got a full body rash from Downy Unstopables (the worst product ever!!) and had to take prednisone to get rid of it. Ever since I started regularly soaking in the tub with this, I have had hardly any flare-ups. Something about the ingredients in this particular combination makes my skin sing. Plus, it smells amazing and provides top-notch bubbles. Worth every penny."—Sarah
Get it from Amazon for $5.99.
21. An kitchen s'mores maker that'll bring the best part of camping indoors, thus eliminating the need for camping at all. Indoor people, rejoice!
It even comes with two roasting forks!
Promising review: "We have been really enjoy this little s'mores maker — it's not big, doesn't take up a lot of space, but does exactly what it's meant to do. We can't build fires or anything like that around where I live, so this was our next best option. It's worked out great for us. Only thing is it only has two of the little roaster sticks, so if you have multiple people roasting you would need something else to use to stick your marshmallow on." —Debb
Get it from Amazon for $27.99.
22. A sleek-as-heck USB alarm clock — seemingly every night stand has been sporting it lately. And with good reason! It has two USB ports for easy charging.
Promising review: "Love love love this clock...sleek and definitely a statement piece. Alarm is subtle; it will definitely wake you up; however, it will not scare the bejesus out of you. Love the extra ports on the side to charge other things with it." —Meika B.
Get it from Amazon for $22.59 (available in four colors).
23. A set of drill brushes so effective, you'll be shocked how clean your bathroom used to be.
24. The Wand — a mini handheld filter that could maybe reduce your wine-induced headaches. This handy lil' friend removes histamines and sulfites in alcohol, aka the stuff that can potentially cause a nasty hangover. Bonus: It claims to revive oxidized wine so you don't have to toss an open bottle.
Promising review: "OMG!!!! This works. I love wine, but have terrible allergies to the histamines, sulfites, and preservatives in wine. I actually use one wand for two glasses of wine. I was very skeptical, but it works like a dream! Thank you, PureWine. This is really a breakthrough for me." —Penny Froh
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $12.99.
25. A LifeStraw that allows you to drink pretty much any water you can find in nature. Hiking trips are now just icky water scavenger hunts.
Check out our closer look at the LifeStraw for more.
Promising review: "I frequently hike and camp in the backcountry all over the United States. Carrying the amount of water that I need to survive during these trips is just not feasible due to the weight. I recently took a LifeStraw out for a test on a backcountry hike in the Rocky Mountains. Every stream, lake, and every other water source that I came across I stopped for a drink. The one drawback to the LifeStraw is that it does take a bit of suction to start and keep the water flowing. When you're at high altitudes in the mountains this leads to longer 'drink breaks' since you can get winded pretty easy while trying to suck up water through the LifeStraw. However, its size and weight advantages when hiking in mountainous terrain vastly outweigh this minor drawback." —Charlie
Get it from Amazon for $17.49 (available in three styles).
26. A shoe-shining kit to make your boots sparkle as bright as the day they caught your eye in the store.
The kit comes with two tins of black polish, a shine brush, a dauber, and a cloth.
Promising review: "Kiwi is my favorite brand for shoe care items. From shining actual military boots to polishing my dress shoes, I haven't found a better-quality shoe shine. This pack is extremely useful for those who are new to polishing shoes themselves since it comes with everything a beginner really needs to learn. Remember that these are new horsehair bushes, so you may lose a few hairs the first time you use the dauber." —Lord McFatty
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
27. A scratch-removing kit that can help you cover up unsightly car damage without even having to take a trip to the body shop. Your dad will never know you took the 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California for a spin.
Promising review: "I had a few noticeable fine scratches on the hood of my truck that I tried this Trinova Scratch and Swirl Remover on, and it worked. I no longer have to be annoyed every time I approach my vehicle from the front! It didn't take a lot of effort to get it back to looking like new again. I will use it again in the future if necessary. I'm glad that I didn't pay someone at the body shop to try to buff the scratches out, I saved a bunch of money with this!" —Bonnie Walton
Get it from Amazon for $17.97.
28. A roll of peel-and-stick fake marble to jazz up all your dull surfaces.
Promising review: "This product is awesome. You get a ton of the paper in one roll. I had more than enough to do the project I wanted it for plus some for more projects of the same size. I probably have enough to do two more of these desks the same way. It went on fairly easy, but easier with two people. It’s very smooth and shiny and does make my desk look like a marble top. Also much easier to clean and wipe down than the previous painted wood." —Cassidy Stewart
Get a roll from Amazon for $7.98+ (available in nine configurations).
29. A hand-powered chopper that will make quick work of your veggies with just a few pulls. It'll feel like a fun game, and you can avoid wasting time on prep work.
Promising review: "This chopper is amazing!! I love cooking, but used to absolutely HATE chopping onions... until someone gave me this chopper! Now I simply have to quarter the onion, throw it in the chopper, pull the handle about 10–15 times, and they're ready to be used! No more teary eyes or spending a long time chopping onions. The cup is big enough to fit a whole onion... I think the capacity is 3 cups. There's tons of other uses to this as well... you can chop pretty much anything from herbs, veggies and fruits, to making salsa and guacamole." —Valjulia
Get it from Amazon for $17.66 (available in three colors).
30. An easy-to-grip OXO veggie brush so you can get your spuds and veggies squeaky clean so don't have to worry about groady potatoes or grisly radishes.
Promising review: "This brush is awesome!! I added some before and after photos of a potato I was scrubbing, and you can see how well the dirt comes off! Very sturdy and durable and the bristles are stiff, which is optimal for cleaning. Easy to hold and does a great job. Definitely recommend!!" —McKinley
Get it from Amazon for $7.95.
31. A hair finishing stick to smoosh down all those annoying flyaways that escaped your bun.
Promising review: "I have super fine hair with lots of breakage. No matter how I put my hair up I have bad flyaways. This stuff is great! So easy and it stays better and looks smoother than stiff hair spray." —Jill Stilfield
Get it from Amazon for $7.99.
32. Or an edge control gel that'll help lay edges and baby hairs for a sleek look without the unwanted flaking and residue.
BUT we want to add that no one should feel pressure to lay their edges, unless they way want to! Check out "Just A Friendly PSA That You Don't HAVE To Lay Your Edges Down If You Don't Wanna."
Promising review: "Hands-down! The best edge control I have ever used and I have used a lot of them. Stayed all day! No flakes and nongreasy! And this one is not even the strongest in the line. Love this product!" —Seabea2013
Get it from Amazon for $4.99+ (available in four sizes).
33. A bottle of Sun Bum's cruelty-free heat protector so you can go ahead and use that straightener without worrying that you're *completely* frying your hair.
I don't know why it's so hard to find a good heat protector! For the longest time, I settled for one that smelled so bad, I had to hold my breath when I used it. When I finally stumbled upon this option at the pharmacy, I grabbed it without hesitation. I've used it a few times now and I'm a big fan! First of all: It looks really cool. It comes with separated clear and blue liquids that you need to shake up before using. It has an unoffensive, tropical scent that doesn't linger in my hair for long. It's a little pricey, but a little goes a long way.
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
34. A pack of pimple patches that can suck out all the gross gunk in your face overnight. Pimples suddenly don't feel like a big deal.
Promising review: "I switched my birth control and was having a ton of breakouts, these are amazing! They helped me stop picking at my face and my skin is so clear now. Will always have these in my house from now on!" —Kiara Galloway
Get it from Amazon for $12.99.
35. An ingenious sandwich cutter and sealer so you can make your own Smucker's Uncrustables copycats at home. FINALLY we can all be reunited with the sadly discontinued grilled cheese variety.
Each set comes with three square, three round, and three triangle cutters in different sizes. Psst — people also use these to make hand pies and toss 'em in the oven or the air fryer!
Promising review: "I like to make a bunch of sandwiches and put them in the freezer for easy school lunches. I had the Pampered Chef sandwich sealer for several years, but it was always hard to get the sandwiches back out again. So when it finally broke I went on the hunt for a replacement. This one has been great so far. It has circle, square, or triangle choices, which is great. Depending on the shape of the bread, one shape may work better than the others. It is easy to pop the sandwich right out after you seal it. Even when part of the crust gets sealed, it holds up better than the ones I used to make. It cleans up easy right in the top of the dishwasher (no more hand washing if you don't want to). My kids made ham and cheese and they liked the smaller cutting piece. I made 20 sandwiches (Nutella, PB and honey and PB and jelly) for the freezer in less than 15 minutes. These are so much better than what I had before. Much easier to use than I was expecting." —K Pearson
Get a set of nine from Amazon for $15.96.
36. A 10-inch serrated bread knife capable of cutting extra thin slices of bread, salami, and other delicious, heavenly snacks.
Promising review: "I needed a better bread knife and chose this one based on a recommendation from America's Test Kitchen. It has rubber grips and just feels good in your hand. It is very sharp and produces smooth cuts with almost no crumbs. I decided to test the sharpness and control of the knife by slicing bread very thinly. The pictures show the result of a slice of bread about 1/8" thick that you could practically see through. With a little more practice I can probably get it thinner because I think the knife is capable of doing it." —Tammy Edgington
Get it from Amazon for $24.40 (available in 12 other knife styles).
37. A Briogeo deep conditioning hair mask seemingly capable of turning back time to before you bleached or burned the heck out of your hair. Get your soft, healthy locks back!
Briogeo is a Black woman-owned haircare brand founded by Nancy Twine.
Promising review: "THE best hair mask I’ve tried. Made my hair SO soft, so hydrated, silky and strong. But you have to let it sit for at least 10 minutes. I will forever buy it. My hair is naturally curly and frizzy, this is the only mask that really change my hair." —mxri7
Get it from Sephora for $15+ (available in three sizes).
38. A Yonanas fruit soft serve maker that turns frozen fruit (boring) into "nice" cream, aka fruity soft serve (exciting).
Promising review: "I saw one of these in action at a friend's house like five years ago and thought it was just a made up memory, because making ice cream out of solely frozen fruit seems wild. But when I saw a TikTok about it I immediately went to Amazon and bought it. Literally this was the BEST decision of my life. I cannot believe still how amazing this thing is! It makes the creamiest, best tasting fruit ice cream ever. It’s easy to take apart and clean, and super easy to use." —DMCKAY
Get it from Amazon for $38.91.
