    These 33 Things Are Just Too Good To Gatekeep

    It'd be way too greedy to keep these things a secret.

    Promising review: "Used a little more than one roll for a quick makeover for an ugly fireplace in a rental apartment. It was easy to cover the tiles with the film, and I could stretch the film out about 1 mm if I had cut the strip too short. It makes a huge difference for minimal effort/price. I don't think anyone would be squinting down at the floor to notice the slightly pixelated pattern." —zhen

    Get a single roll from Amazon for $10.05+ (available in two sizes and three designs).

    4. A sticker collecting album so you can cherish all your stickers without worrying about where to put them.

    Promising review: "This was exactly what I was looking for! The only thing is the picture made it seem bigger than what it was, so I was a little disappointed by the size! Aside from that though, it was exactly what I looking for. My stickers stick nicely, and don’t fall out. And even though it’s small, it makes up for its size in pages! This book will definitely last me a while and it's easy to replace the stickers, they don’t rip and re-stick every time!" —rebecca

    Get it from Amazon for $14.75+ (available in two sizes).

    5. A set of drill brushes so effective, you'll be shocked to discover how clean your home used to be.

    The set comes with a two-inch flat brush, a four-inch flat brush, and a round brush. The drill isn't included, but you can grab a basic Black and Decker one ($27.83 on Amazon) that'll do the trick.

    Promising review: "I thought my hard water stains would never come off my shower doors, but I bought this awesome brush set, and it's amazing! I’ve tried all the hacks — drier sheets, clean erasers, lemon, vinegar — nothing works like this brush! I used Zep shower cleaner with it! In the picture, the side on the right is the part of the door I cleaned, and I still have to clean the left side." —Traci D.

    Get it from Amazon for $18.95 (available in six colors and stiffness levels).

    6. Little heart-shaped grippers to help with glasses that keep falling down your nose.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "This little ball is genius!! Rolls around in my purse; which I live out of. It picks up a lot lint, debris, or even crumbs. Easy to find with the bright pink. Just remove and wash, and it’s ready to go again. The price was great and something I can use for years. If you live out of your purse this a must-have!!" —dj3biggs

    You get two dual-sided pens: one each with the left and right wings. The other sides have straight eyeliner.

    Promising review: "I've tried the taping method, tried normal liquid liner, plastic winged stamping devices, stencils, all of it! So when I saw this I thought, meh, why not give it a shot...It's not like my hopes were high since nothing else has been efficient or worked as it should. But to my surprise I put the left cat eye on first and it was perfect aside from needing to connect it to my current liner. I thought this was a fluke and did the right eye...again, it came out clean and perfect! I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE BEEN ABLE TO DO A CAT EYE IN UNDER 10 MINUTES...LET ALONE THE 2 MINUTES THIS TOOK TO DO! There was no sloppy streaks that I had to touch up or anything you would expect. Just a clean crisp line." —LadyMeow

They are passionate about being environmentally friendly and not using fossil fuels or gross toxins in their products.

    Promising review: "Dewy and glowy. I tried it over makeup and it appeared as a strong pink shade but settled to a flushed, glowy color. I had my little sister try it too because I wanted to see the color change again and it lasted a really long time on her. The texture was smooth and it was easy to rub in and blend out." —Summer

    Get it from Youthforia or Amazon for $36.

    Hairbrella is a Black-owned small business established in 2016 that specializes in hats combining fashion and function to protect against all types of weather.

    Promising review: "I never carry an umbrella cause they’re too bulky, so when I saw the Hairbrella I was so excited. It keeps my hair dry and my curls nicely quaffed, rather than me looking like I stuck my fingers I a light socket. I’m telling everyone I know about it, it’s an amazing alternative to those wide-brimmed hats or a briefcase LOL! Truly it’s never going Read more about review stating Love it!!to leave my side from now on! I definitely recommend it." —Gina C.

    Promising review: "I just got this magazine holder today, and I can't tell you enough about the quality of this product. It's beautiful, just like the picture, and it's efficient...I put it alongside my TV stand and no longer have to clutter up the stand ;)" —N.M.P118

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 it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in two colors and in a brow gel/brow soap duo). 

    17. A tote organizer that has two vital functions: 1. brings order to your chaotic bag that weirdly has no pockets and 2. lets you transport all your stuff with one fluid motion.

    Measure your bag to make sure it's a good fit!

    Promising review: "This thing is great! I have a large bag I use as a carry-on when I fly by plane. Unfortunately it has very few pockets and is just like a bottomless pit. This fit in perfectly. I was able to organize all my items quite well. They were easy to retrieve in flight and in the airport. I didn't use the zipper compartment at all, but did put that piece in to use it as a divider. It is well-made and sturdy. Be sure to measure your inner bag space first!" —Susan

    Get it from Amazon for $15.88+ (available in six sizes and 21 colors).

    18. A set of thick velvet slip covers to instantly transform your drab couch into something new and fabulous. Goodbye, stain-covered gray couch and HELLO new couch of my HGTV dreams.

    This set even comes with nonslip straps to ensure your new seats stay in place. See more colors here.

    Promising review: "I have never been so excited about a slipcover. Total transformation of our couch and loveseat. I was worried about it not working on our leather couch, but it stays on really well due to the straps and the separate cushion covers. LOVE." —Brian/Liz

    Get it from Amazon for $32.49+ (available in five sizes and 21 colors).

    19. A pair of baby feet masks for getting the peeling snake feet of your dreams. JK! After the peeling stops, you get nice, soft tootsies.

    Just pop on the booties for an hour, wash your feet, and marvel as your feet start shedding layers of dead skin.

    Promising review: "My feet have never felt softer! I do recommend wearing socks often, otherwise your couch and blankets will be covered in sloughed off skin! No pain or discomfort. I love it!" —Nicole C

    Get two pairs from Amazon for $15.95.

    20. A pack of cleaning pads that work just as well as the real Magic Eraser deal at zapping away smudges and stains. Save your dirty sneaks AND save some money.

    Read more about these impressive pads.

    Promising review: "A 20-pack? For this price? Yes please! It's basically an exact replica of the name-brand product for a fraction of the cost. I have a toddler who has at one time or another accosted our walls with pens, pencils, and markers and a mechanic husband who comes home each day manhandling our white front door with greasy grubby hands each day. Wait, our door is white? OH WAIT thanks to these yes our door is indeed a sparkling, clean white color. My walls are marker-free without rubbing off all of the cheap white paint. I used this to scrub pollon off of sticky window sills and caked on spilled laundry detergent off of the washer/dryer unit. Scuffs of all nature, be gone. In all seriousness, these do their job well, just add water and a little elbow grease. They disintegrate quite quickly if you're scrubbing a more abrasive surface, but that's to be expected and for the price it's so worth it." —hannah

    Get a pack of 20 from Amazon for $13.95 (or get the originals).

    21. A pet brush with thin, long teeth capable of getting to the undercoat. A good brushing means a silkier coat — and best of all, less shedding.

    Promising review: "This brush is awesome!! I highly recommend it. I even bought another one to have just in case something happened to the first one. I have 3 Shiba Inu dogs. Every spring they shed their ‘second coat.’ I have tried six different brushes over the past 3-4 years, including the Furminator and they have hated them all. They either pull and cause pain or they don’t work. This brush is not expensive, not painful, removes gobs of hair easily, and I think it may help my dogs shed less. I wish I had found it first. I could have saved money and spared my dogs painful experiences trying all the other brushes." —Becky

    Get it from Amazon for $14.99.

    22. magnetic-mounted torch you can take off the wall and bring with you when it’s time to go to the bathroom or groggily find some coffee without turning on the lights.

    Promising review: "We wanted to light the steps going up to the bathroom and came across this excellent product. We have no electrical outlets in the hall, so a plug in nightlight was not an option for us. I read other reviews that mention the sticky back rips paint off the wall, so I went ahead and drilled a hole through the middle of the back plate, and used a screw to secure it instead; this way if I ever want to move the light I can do so. We will definitely recommend to friends and family." —biallasamantha

    Get it from Amazon for $17.59 (available in four colors).

    23. A candle that looks like tinned fish. Trendy! The soy wax candle even comes with adorable paper packaging.

    Promising review: "This was the perfect gift for a beloved niece. Personalized, gorgeous, and incredibly affordable. This necklace is two-in-one. I love the layered look, and she can wear them together or separate, as the two pieces are not physically connected to each other. I loved it so much, I want to get one for myself!" —J.McKenna

    Get them from Amazon for $14.99 (available in three finishes and 26 letters). 

    25. A fancy switch plate cover because HELLO everything in your home can and should be fancy as all heck.

    Promising review: "These are absolutely beautiful! If I ever move, I'm taking them with me. You may think they're a little pricey, but they're REALLY heavy and far nicer than the stuff you find at the local hardware store. I bought the switch plate, outlet plates, and even a blank plate to cover an old electrical box left behind by DIRECTV." —Karebow

    Get it from Amazon for $22.50+ (available in five finishes). 

    26. A cleansing jelly ball that smells like watermelon and cloudberry, because liquid cleanser is sooo last year.

    Dallas & James Skincare Co. is a mom-owned small business that sells skincare products.

    Promising review: "I am on my third purchase of the Watermelon Dream line. I am someone who has struggled with skincare lines for years. I have severely sensitive skin that in my 30s still also likes to act up like a teenager. I had used it over the summer and at the time felt like I hadn't noticed a difference. So when I ran out, switched to something else I had lying around and boy did my skin feel BLAH. After like a week I went online and bought the whole line again plus the mask. My skin is soooo much happier and now I am all in. The smell is light, not overpowering but still there and very good." —Stephanie

    Get it from Amazon for $28.

    27. A colorful keyboard (and matching mouse!) in case you've seen all those TikTok desk setups and started to feel a bit jealous.

    This keyboard comes with a mouse and a USB receiver (compatible with Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, and Mac) for easy connecting. 

    Promising review: "I love this keyboard! It's only been a couple weeks, but it makes me excited to write again. I ordered blue, it's lovely and easy to use, haven't had any problems with the keys being round like I thought I would. The mouse is fine, the connection hasn't had any problems yet. I feel like the price is reasonable, it's not super fancy with lighting, but it has a nice aesthetic and fluffy sounding clicky clackies." —Eric

    Get it from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in 11 colors).

    28. A bag of sugar-free, gluten-free, soy-free, and nut-free brownie mix for an inclusive treat everyone can enjoy at movie night.

    Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in eight styles). 

    31. 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.

    To use this, all you have to do is put a pearl-sized drop of your favorite cleanser at the bottom, fill with water up to the dotted line, and pump it until it creates foam.

    Promising review: "This thing is the bomb. Does exactly what it advertises — makes a thick whipped cream/foam out of washes, making it economical as well as fun. It can 'soften' harsh washes to make the concoction gentler on skin. It's also great for mixing washes if you have two or more you'd like to combine for different effects. And of course, a little goes a long, long way with this puppy. For the price, it's a steal — if you're into this kind of thing. Definitely give it a try if you're not sure. It's a really cool device." —KnockKnockMe

    Get it from Amazon for $8.

    32. Waterslide decal paper that will make you feel like some sort of design magician. Stick your art or photos on nails, toys, candles, planters, or whatever else you’d like.

    Promising review: "This is an amazing product. I can’t use strong retinols and this has been perfect! I’m 54 and this is product seems to be fighting my age lines around my eyes, helping with darkness and morning swelling. I also feel like it is very hydrating and the price is soooooo good! I’ve paid a lot for skin care. Glad there is a brilliant product like this that I don’t have to empty the bank account to buy!" —LEESA_VEE
