1. A dishwasher magnet you can toggle to say whether the contents inside are clean or dirty — a seemingly small gesture with potentially major peace-keeping results. If you've ever experienced the horror of your SO putting dirty dishes into a dishwasher filled with clean ones, you need this in your cart, stat.
Promising review: "I bought this because of a TikTok video. Super cool and now nobody has to ask me if the dishes are clean or not." —D. Washington
Get it from Amazon for $5.94+ (available in four styles).
2. A beauty spatula for getting every. last. drop. out of that pricey foundation you splurged on. Plus, it doubles as an applicator if you'd rather not contaminate your product by sticking your fingers in it.
Promising review: "I bought this a while ago because I felt like there was often too much product I couldn’t reach using the built in applicator. Each bottle is 1 ounce, and I had five “empties” to test this spatula on. I got so much product out of these old bottles that I had to stop before finishing every bottle. My two ounce container is practically over flowing! Thanks to this little spatula, I now have two full bottles worth of foundation potted to use. The spatula is pointed and I think for these bottles a square shaped spatula would have been more efficient, but nevertheless the deed is done! So impressed! (And, considering the cost of each bottle, I saved about $70 worth of foundation that I love and is no longer being sold!)" —Krystal
Get it from Amazon for $4.99 (also available as a 2-pack).
3. A Shark Tank-endorsed Saucemoto dip clip, because when it comes to dunking and driving, safety first. This convenient little invention attaches to your car's air vent and holds takeout sauce containers so you can keep your hand on the wheel (and never have to eat naked fries on the go ever again).
You can also squeeze sauce packets into the included trays.
Promising review: "How did I go so long without one of these??? The Saucemoto was my first 'TikTok Made Me Buy It' purchase and I have no regrets. It clips easily to my car's vent and the sauce cups clip in easily so I can dip and drive. No more trying not to dump the sauce by accident while steering with the same hand that's holding the dip cup. It even comes with a dip cup for those places that do the pouches for their sauces rather than the cups. (I'm looking at you, Arby's.) Ya know, you end up squeezing the sauce onto the wrapper that's balanced on your lap and you end up getting some sauce on your steering wheel. OR you try the whole 'wrapper and sauce on the passenger seat and try to dip while watching the road,' which usually doesn't turn out so great." —Pleasure Pamela
Get set of two from Amazon for $10.90 (also available in packs of four, six, and 10, and in four colors).
4. A foaming garbage disposal cleaner that'll replace lingering smells — you know, the ones that always make you think, Wow, should I be cleaning my garbage disposal? — with a bright, lemony scent. Plus, watching it bubble up is pretty fun!
Promising review: "Saw on TikTok (don’t judge) and automatically added to cart. So easy to use, takes probably a minute to fully bubble up and clean, and you’re left with a clean sink! I use with other drain cleaning products, but would 100% recommend for weekly maintenance." —Jessica Hamilton
Get a four-pack from Amazon for $3.98 (also available as a pack of 24).
5. An electric lighter because let's face it — matches can be scary! With this handy gadget, you'll be able to light candles on the first try and feel confident while doing it. And it's long enough to reach even those super low wicks.
Promising review: "I’m not sure about battery life because it’s rechargeable. My daughter has one, it’s been over a year and she’s never charged hers. I will NEVER go back to the traditional, long flame lighters. This thing is AMAZING! It’s worth the money. I burn candles every day. This will be an awesome gift for any candle loving person. Very easy to use." —JMR
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in five colors).
6. A batter dispenser that'll take the mess out of preparing your weekend brunch. It's got a helpful measurement guide on it so you can mix up your batter right in the container, and when it's skillet time, just pull the lever for perfectly portioned pancakes, no batter splatters or dribble-drabbles in sight.
Promising review: "I got this yesterday, and my son asked me this morning if I would make him pancakes! I was happy to oblige so I could try my new kitchen gadget, and it did not disappoint! I LOVE it! I made the batter right in the container, and it has measurements on it, so I didn't even have to get out my measuring cups. The batter came out perfectly and easily, and when I stopped the flow, it immediate stopped! There was not one dribble of batter anywhere, and the pancakes turned out perfect! I cannot wait to make cupcakes with this! That was the main reason I bought it, because I always dribble cake batter everywhere when I try to make cupcakes, and it's a mess. I love cupcakes, but not the mess. Now I will be able to easily make them! I will most likely buy this as gifts for my family and friends as well. My advice, get it!" —Nikki
Get it from Amazon for $17.25.
7. A two-pack of *iconic* cleaning paste The Pink Stuff, because once you realize how much stain-lifting power this unassuming stuff has, you'll be happy you bought in bulk. Not only does it get stains out, it does so quickly and with minimal effort on your part.
After seeing countless videos on cleaning TikTok that raved about The Pink Stuff, I knew I had to try it out on my stained, grime-coated sheet tray. I mean, if it could make a dent in that, I'd probably believe in magic. Well, I started scrubbing one corner as a test, and lo and behold, the difference was nothing short of DRAMATIC (check out the photos for proof!). And I didn't even have to scrub very hard, though as someone with ~minimal~ upper body strength, I doubt any force I could physically apply would even constitute as heavy scrubbing. At any rate, it worked so well that I tried it on a pair of dirty tennis shoes and a blue stain that had been singed onto my toaster oven for months, and, yup, it worked. I will say, if you want your sheet trays to look brand spankin' new, you might need one of those cleaning scraper tools to get every last bit off, but as far as general stain removal goes, consider me a FAN.
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $18.99.
8. Or an equally popular bottle of Bar Keepers Friend you can use on practically anything in need of a little refresh. Grease-coated pans? Check. Rust-stained shower? Check. Streaky stainless steel? Check.
Promising review: "Bought our refrigerator seven years ago when we moved into our house and within a year rust spots showed up (cheap and didn't clean the stainless steel properly). Have tried numerous products over the years with no avail. Received Bar Keepers Friend today and after dinner decided to give it a whirl. This product was easy to use and all the rust stains are gone. My wife came in and said, "Where are the orange spots, I never thought those would go away." Highly recommend and will continue to clean our appliances with this product." —Andrew Riebesehl
Get it from Amazon for $8.70 (also available in packs of 2-6).
9. A genius T-shirt roll holder so you won't have to panic as you scramble to pick up strewn-about tees every time someone comes to visit. It may not look like much, but it holds 10–20 rolled-up shirts with its stretchy loop compartments and can also be used to store things like paper towels and crafting supplies!
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 Shopping writer Mal Mower has one and loves it: "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 an Etsy product from!"
Get it from The Roll Keeper on Amazon Handmade for $13.99+ (available in four sizes and in black or white).
10. An under-cabinet lid opener for anyone short on counter or drawer space who dreams of prying jars open with Incredible Hulk–level ease.
Promising review: "I have tried a million different tools and gadgets for help in opening jars of all sizes, and each one had its own issues! Finally, someone has invented the perfect jar opener that is simple and requires no space in your kitchen drawers or counters. There was one person who suggested placing the opener with the sharp end of the 'V' closest to you and with it placed in the front, in the right corner under your cabinet. I followed those directions and it works perfectly and easily. I have already placed an order for another one for a gift or my sister." —cat lover
Check out our EZ Off Jar Opener review for more deets!
Get it from Amazon for $18.95 (also available as a set of two).
11. A timed outlet so you'll never panic about having left the toaster oven on ever again. Set it to turn on and shut off at whatever times you'd like, and it'll automatically do so, even if you're not home.
Promising review: "I've been using this for about a month now and love this timer. I had a bad habit of leaving my hair straightener on, but I set the timer to come on for one hour in the morning while I get ready and stay off the rest of the day. I haven't left my hair straightener on since I bought this timer. Highly recommend for anyone who doesn't want to disrupt their morning routine, but wants to be safe during the day while you're out!" —AmznUser181921
Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (also available as a set of two).
12. A pair of bamboo charcoal air-purifying bags that'll *finally* get rid of that rancid cheese popcorn smell coming out of your old sneakers (you know the one). Just place them anywhere that could use some odor relief, and voila!
These can be reused for up to two years. To rejuvenate, simply place the bags in the sun once a month for at least one hour. To learn more, check out our Moso Natural air-purifying bags review.
Promising review: "I was skeptical about these when they arrived because I've never used anything like it before. I did NOT want something to cover up odors or make my feet smell like a robust dryer-sheet. I just wanted the odor gone. We've been having temperatures here over 100 degrees lately and although I wear socks with my Vans, they were getting a bit "pungent." I slid one of these into each sneaker and hoped for the best. Less than 12 hours later, the odor was gone... GONE! When a product works like it says it should = happy customer. I've only used them for about a week now, so I haven't had to recharge them yet, but I'm really happy I bought these." —C. Welte
Get a pair from Amazon for $9.95.
13. A bra strap extender so you can keep wearing your favorite ones even when they start feeling too snug. Just pop 'em onto the existing clasps and you're good to go!
Promising review: "These have been amazing during my pregnancy. I really can't rave enough. When my body started changing, I went out and bought a new bra (I'm a 32 and got a 34), but soon it started feeling tight on me. I didn't need another bra because the cups still fit fine, then I found these extenders, and they made all the difference! I can extend without buying new bras! They are sooo soft and comfortable, you can't really feel or tell they are there. I've already recommended them to all of my pregnant friends!" —Mari
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in five sizes and three colors).
14. A safety cutter for easy precision cutting without the risk of nicking your fingers. If you're a scrapbooker, coupon collector, or love a good unboxing moment, this is for you!
Promising review: "This is one of those products that you never knew was missing from your life. It cuts paper, slices envelopes, opens plastic packaging, and cuts coupons from magazines without damaging the second page, all without danger of cutting your hand." —aJayM
Get it from Amazon for $9.80+ (also available in packs of 12 or 48).
15. A pair of silicone hooks that'll keep your glasses in place rather than slipping down your nose. If you're a specs-wearer, you know how annoying it is to constantly keep pushing them back up throughout the day, aka you'll wanna add to cart ASAP!
Promising review: "Finally the solution to my issue. My eyeglasses would always dig into the back of my ear on one side, not to mention they would slip down my nose from time to time. Purchased these and what a difference, my glasses have never fit better, and often times I forget to take them off, they're so comfortable. Best purchase decision EVER." —Andrea Lincoln
Get five-pairs from Amazon for $6.99 (available in three colors).
16. And an eyeglass repair kit so you can tighten and replace those tiny screws on your specs without visiting the eye doctor.
It includes four snap-off screws, one screwdriver, and one convenient carrying tube.
Promising review: "In less than five minutes, I have glasses again. I still had my original screw and I even had a tiny screwdriver for eyeglasses, but because the barrels couldn't align straight anymore, it was impossible for me to get the tiny screw through the holes with my fingers. But one of the screws in this kit worked perfectly." —Danielle L. Petty
Get it from Amazon for $6.49 (also available in a 2-pack).
17. A pair of high heel caps for a quick, budget-friendly fix when your favorite worn-down pairs are in need of some care. Plus, they minimize clicking sounds and help prevent slipping!
Promising review: "I can't believe I never thought of searching for a product like this before for the twelve pairs of heels that I have sitting around waiting for shoe repair! These Quick Tips are awesome and will save me a bundle in time and money, instead of hauling my shoes to the inconvenient shoe repair shop. I am so impressed. They fit really well. For point of reference, I will say that the extra small size is a perfect fit for my Alfani Easy-Step black heels, and the small size is a perfect fit for my Nine West ones. Please try these, you will not be sorry! Also, great in those emergencies when you lose your heel tip right before an important date or job interview!" —MarisaReads
Get a four-pack (two pairs) from Amazon for $11.99 (available in five sizes and two colors).
18. An Oxo 3-in-1 avocado tool, which splits, pits, and slices avocados so you can prepare Insta-worthy avo toasts right in your own kitchen. Avocado slicing injuries are VERY common, so this handy thing could save you a trip to the ER!
Promising review: "I love avocados, but hardly ever buy them because they're so inconvenient to deal with. This tool ABSOLUTELY changes that. I knew I was getting something that would make it a little easier to pit and slice my avocado, but I had no idea HOW MUCH EASIER it would be. This thing is amazing!" —Edianter
Get it from Amazon for $11.95 (also available as a bundle with a masher).
19. A nail polish holder ring that keeps the bottle in place on your hand for mess-free application. I mean, we've all accidentally knocked over the bottle and sent nail polish spilling everywhere, but with this, that'll be a thing of the past.
Promising review: "Soon as I saw this, I knew I had to get it. How smart that someone finally came up with something that will hold your polish? Not everyone can afford to, or want to go out and get mani pedis right now. Some of us want to stay home, stay away from the germs and do these things ourselves. But of course, I would make a mess, or tip the polish over or knock it over when working on my fingers and toes. This is perfect. It fits on my hand, it fits all sizes of nail polish bottles and it is made of a nice thick plastic. You get 5 big stars from me." —Anne Maes
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in 22 colors).
20. A mini travel contact lens kit so you can avoid red eyes on your red-eye. When it's time to take your contacts out and you really don't wanna do so in the tiny, questionably sanitary plane b-room (or any public restroom), this will help you get the job done right in your seat.
It comes with a solution bottle, tweezers, and two lens holders.
GFSiS is a small biz based in China specializing in suuuper adorable accessories, from car and dashboard decor to phone cases and crocheted bouquets.
Promising review: "These are so cute! I've been looking everywhere for a cute contact lens case, and this set is perfect. Not too bulky, and it comes with mini tweezers, a mini lens placement tool, a tiny bottle for contact solution, two cases, and an outer case. I love it! I got the "green" set color." —L NS
Get a two-pack from GFSiS on Etsy for $8.99+ (available in five colors).
21. An unassuming but VERY helpful wooden herb stripper, which makes quick work of removing the leaves from all of that rosemary and thyme in your garden. Just stick the sprig through the appropriate hole, slide it through, and you'll be left with all the leafy parts you actually *want* in your salad.
To see how it works, check out this TikTok demo!
Wild Cherry Spoon Co. is a small biz based in Rock Island, Illinois making handcrafted wooden home and kitchen goods.
Get it from Wild Cherry Spoon Co. on Amazon Handmade for $14.99.
22. A mini trash bin so your car won't end up becoming one big garbage receptacle (if it's not already). It fits right in the cupholder for quick access and makes tossing out all those crumpled receipts and straw wrappers so much easier than collecting them off the floor.
Promising review: "LOVE this thing. The minute I put this in my car, I notice three wrappers I could throw in. A straw wrapper and some gum wrappers. Boom. Clean car again. I can tell this is a quality product. The spring on the lid is fairly strong so you know this won’t break within a week of use. I’m giving one to a friend as well!" —Bree
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in four colors, as well as packs of two).
23. A 2-in-1 water bottle and weekly pill organizer to keep you hydrated and on-track when it comes to remembering to take your daily medications.
FYI — the pill organizer is removable and both parts are machine- and hand-washable.
Promising review: "Finally, I can remember to take my pills! This is seriously great. It doesn't leak, I've run it through the dishwasher a few times (top rack) and it has held up fine. The pill spot was said to hold "two to three pills" if I remember right, but they can hold plenty! I have seven that I take on a daily basis, and granted that some are small, they all fit with ease!" —Maeka
Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in five colors).
24. A pack of liquid ant killer bait stations you simply place anywhere you've seen bug activity so they can lure those creepy crawlers out of hiding. In just a few days, you should start seeing fewer and fewer ants around your home!
Promising review: "This is my first spring in my new home and around April, my cupboards started filling up with ants. I tried cleaning with bleach, and again with vinegar solution, but nothing kept them at bay for longer than a few hours. I ordered a bunch, and then went down the street to pick up extras from the hardware store. I set out the traps in the "hot spots" above my cabinets and by the kitchen sink. Within 12 hours, hundreds of ants were, I kid you not, SPRINTING to and from the liquid from holes in the caulking I couldn't even see. In less than 24 hours, no ants were bothering with the stray crumbs in my cupboard anymore." —EAC
Get a 12-pack from Amazon for $11.92.
25. A webcam cover for extra assurance that no one will see the Beanie Baby collection in back of your WFH setup unless you want them to. It adheres to your computer in about 15 seconds, and then you can just slide it back and forth to cover or reveal your camera.
Promising review: "I always thought that putting something in front of your camera was reserved for government paranoid people, but 1. that is a real worry and 2. this thing comes in handy for everyday life too. I work at an organization that uses a lot of conference lines with external clients and having this manual option to prevent others from seeing my video is such a nice piece of mind. It doesn't block the lens when opened and is super easy to apply. I also love that it is super discreet, and doesn't prevent my laptop from closing properly." —Manders
Get a 2-pack from Amazon for $6.99 (available in four colors).
26. A handy gadget called the Bug Bite Thing because if you're anything like me, you get super excited about the start of summer, and then one day later you're like, oh, right, mosquitoes love me 😬 This ingenious device sucks out the saliva or venom that causes itching and irritation in bites, and since it doesn't rely on creams or chemicals, it's completely reusable.
This works on mosquitoes, bees, wasps, biting flies, sea lice (sea lice?!), and more!
Promising review: "I bought this because I saw it on TikTok, and have been having issues with mosquito bites. Used it a few time to relieve itchiness and I am convinced it works! Have been recommending it to my family and friends. Read the directions and follow them carefully. Don't use this on your face or neck, or other sensitive areas. Don't do a lot of suction, just a little bit. And do it a few times if needed. Great invention!" —Joe
Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in three colors).
27. A digital luggage scale so you'll know just how many souvenirs you can cram into your suitcase without it resulting in some hefty over-capacity fees. Just hook the scale to your luggage handle, lift up, and the LCD display will show the weight.
You can also switch between pound and kilogram measurements.
Promising review: "This scale works and was accurate on four flights. First flight was a test at 46 pounds and Delta scales said it was 46 pounds. The next two flights were at 49 pounds and both United and Delta found it to be 49 pounds. The bag on the 4th flight weighed 49 but the United scale found it to be 48 pounds. Four different airports and scales proved that this scale is a good, low cost must have item for air travel." —Robert
Another promising review: "Love it! Lightweight and easy to read! It even gives you the climate temperature (not that I need it but a neat feature). It reads in both kg and lbs. Definitely recommend if you're a frequent traveler and have weight requirements on luggage." —Patricia Velasquez
Get a 2-pack from Amazon for $16.99, and don't forget to clip the coupon for an extra 5% off!
28. A set of paper-less towels, because not only are they more eco-friendly than the single-use rolls (these can go in the wash and be reused!); they'll also save you tons of money. Plus, reviewers say they're just as absorbent as the paper ones, and they'll look cute in your kitchen, too!
Saged Home is a woman-owned small business based in Portland, Oregon, founded by Ariel Russell. Some of their most popular items are reusable paper-less towels and all-purpose cleaners.
Promising review: "I adore these! I had bought some cheaper paperless towels that did not hold up particularly well to washing and were not very absorbent. I replaced them with these! I absolutely love the variety of patterns and they’re extremely high quality, soft, thick and durable. They'd be great for use in the kitchen for mopping up spills or wiping surfaces. They arrived quickly and in package-free shipping materials. I highly recommend investing in these." —Sarah
Get a six-pack from Saged Home on Etsy for $18.50 (also available in packs of 12 and 24, and in six color combos).
29. A wireless tracker so you'll never go, "Now, where did I leave my keys/wallet/cat?" ever again. It comes with four color-coordinated receivers you can attach to whatever items you tend to misplace, and a remote with dedicated buttons for tracking each receiver within 131 feet!
Promising review: "Do you have kids? We have three of them. By the time I get home from a long day at work, sometimes I just need a little Netflix or Amazon Prime. Before I got these, there was this hellish period of 'you've got to be kidding me? What do you mean you don't remember where you put it?!?!'. Sure, we had a designated basket where the remotes should go, but they'd be under the couch, under a blanket, in the next room, etc. Now, all I do is click a button on the base remote and the fob chimes away and we have fun finding the cussed little devices. Sure, they still end up in every conceivable unusual spot, but now we can find them." —UkuleleJoe
Get it from Amazon for $18.99, and be sure to clip the coupon for an extra 5% off!
30. A metal tongue scraper that won't just benefit you, but also everyone you come into contact with since they'll be smelling your new and improved breath. Gum and mints only go so far, but if you wanna nip the problem in the (taste) bud, proper tongue maintenance is a great place to start!
Promising review: "I had no idea what tongue scraping was but glad I do now. It's so gross and refreshing. I have been using it for about two weeks and my mouth feels SO MUCH cleaner. Stuff builds up on your tongue at night and you need to get it off! I'm kind of a beauty product junkie and sad to say that a lot of what I buy gets tossed aside and not used again but this product is now like brushing and a must everyday. I make sure to clean it and then wash with super hot water after each use!" —Betsy Channell
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $11.95+ (available in copper or stainless steel).
31. A nonstick microwave pasta cooker for nights when you want spaghetti for dinner but the thought of waiting for water to boil seems like cruel and unusual punishment. Pop it in for 12–13 minutes, and ta-da!
It also doubles as a strainer, and you can use the holes in the lid to portion out long pastas.
Promising review: "I love pasta, but I hate *making* pasta. Too many pots, pans, strainer, cleanup, etc. Forget it. And after a long day at work when I am craving pasta, all I want to do is eat right away. This pasta cooker cooked pasta better than I have ever cooked pasta in my life. I am Italian, so as you can imagine I have eaten (and made myself) a LOT of pasta. This product is a game changer. It was extremely easy to use, cooked quickly, and it came out PERFECTLY. Not over cooked, a little al dente, but not firm. Perfection. Now I have no excuse not to cook pasta for myself (and my husband) practically every day. BUY THIS. It will change your life." —Hope Lanza
Get it from Amazon for $16.99.
32. A set of portable soap paper sheets so you can ensure your hands stay clean, even on the go. They instantly foam up when you rub your wet hands together, so don't fret the next time you use a public b-room and the soap dispenser is empty (tsk tsk, public b-room!).
Promising review: "I first saw these on TikTok and I LOVED the idea of carrying around sheetlike soap with me! Fulfills my dreams of becoming Monica Geller 💜" —Erica
Get a four-pack (200 sheets total) from Amazon for $8.49 (also available in packs with 50, 150, 300, and 450 sheets, and several colors).
33. A nifty set of wad-free pads that attach to each corner of your bedsheets to keep them from consuming everything else in the dryer. If you've ever gone to retrieve your laundry only to find it's rolled up into a big ball and...not dry...you know how frustrating it is (esp. when you wait to do it right before bed and end up with a damp pillowcase!) 😩
Wad-Free is a small biz that was launched during the pandemic. Cyndi, the founder, learned CAD (computer-aided design) to create the pads, and 5% of profits are donated to the American Brain Tumor Association.
Promising review: "Wow, you wonder if things like this really work and well, I can absolutely confirm it does! First, I was impressed that the package came with two of the devices because I was only expecting one. So there was one for the fitted sheet, and [one for] the flat sheet. Finally, I tried it out, and my sheets not only did NOT wad up, they came out of the dryer feeling fresher, feeling more dry, and unwrinkled! I will be buying a set of these for each of my immediate family members and close friends! What a great gift!" —katy
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $19.99.
34. A — dare I say — life-changing Scrub Daddy, because if you haven't tried this Shark Tank star yet, it'll change everything you thought you knew about what a sponge could be. It gets soft in hot water for light washing and firm when cold for more serious scrubbing, and its uniquely soft yet powerful material won't scratch surfaces. Plus, it dries quickly, meaning it can go weeks without retaining odors.
Promising review: "This durable little dude has scrubbed his way into my home’s heart. Firm in cold water, soft in warm, he handled scrubbing all my counters, my stove, dishes, and then the bathrooms last — before I threw him in the extra hot dishwasher where he emerged like new. I would have gone through three Magic Erasers in that time — but now I can save those for chores more geared to them. Bravo, Scrub Daddy. You’ve earned your crown." —kjamador
Get it from Amazon for $6.28 (also available in packs of three or four).
35. A Tangle Teezer detangling brush that works on wet or dry hair to get pesky snarls out of all hair types. Adding to my cart ASAP, because I have the type of hair that seems to tangle just by existing.
Promising review: "LOVE this brush! It’s the perfect size for me and the handle just fits so comfortable in my hand. The bristles have a medium to firm flexibility and glides easily through my 4b fine, natural curly strands. None of the bristles have bent for me. I’m gentle when I brush my hair though and always start at the ends and detangle my way up." —netters
Another promising review: "My daughter has 3b curls, and it used to take me 35 minutes (at minimum) to brush her hair out after a wash/fix it in the mornings. I bought this to help tame the tangles, and I am shocked at how well it works. No more harsh pulling with a disgruntled preschooler! It took less than 10 minutes to comb through her hair with little-to-no effort. I’m SO happy with this brush!!" —PipsPlusOne
Get it from Amazon for $14+ (available in five styles and 27 colors).
36. An all-purpose stain spray, which is called "Emergency Stain Rescue" for a reason. Use it on any fabric in need of reviving, so whether you're famous for wearing white shirts whenever pizza night rolls around or have a toddler who loves hugging you with slimy hands, you'll wanna keep a bottle stashed in your cabinet.
The Hate Stains Co. is a small biz that was founded by a parent who set out to create a stain remover that was nontoxic but effective.
Promising review: "I've tried Shout wipes, stain removal pens, and all the other tricks in the book. This removes organic stains from sweat better than anything I've tried thus far. I followed the directions, got the fabric wet, sprayed it on, and left it to chill for an hour. When I came back, I was dumbfounded. I can't believe I didn't have this sooner, I'm about to buy a gallon!" —Mark Bogumil
Get it from The Hate Stains Co. on Amazon for $7.95 (also available in packs of two or three, and with on-the-go wipes).
37. A cheeky wine condom to keep your half-used bottles fresh without having to try jamming the cork back in. Plus, it's 99% leakproof!
Promising review: "My roommates laughed when I showed them the condoms but I was the one laughing when we couldn’t find the top of one of our bottles and used the condoms. It did not leak at all in our fridge. I was shaking it and turning it upside down and it was able to keep all the wine in. It also didn’t give the wine a funny flavor. It worked perfectly. Once I run out of them, I’m definitely getting more." —Angelisa Nivar

38. A reusable Swiffer duster pad because, if you're anything like me, a little part of you dies every time you throw out the disposable ones. These are a great, eco-friendly option, they'll save you money, and they're cute to boot!
TS Designs is a West Leroy, Michigan-based small business that sells fun gifts and decor along with eco-friendly items.
Promising review: "Great washable duster replacement tops. They vacuum off and wash up easily, and they grab dust and cobwebs every bit as well as the disposable ones I was using. Considering it means putting a bit less into landfills and also saving money in the long run, I only wish I had bought these years ago, sincerely. Also they shipped very promptly and arrived sooner than expected, so that was a pleasant surprise. Thanks!" —otherlings
Get it from TS Designs on Etsy for $5.49 (available in ten colors).
39. A silicone keyboard that's equal parts cool-looking and functional since it'll prevent crumbs from getting stuck under the keys. If you've ever lost use of the letter "m" due to snacking, you're gonna want this.
Promising review: "I don't eat over my laptop but somehow it picks up crumbs, dust, etc. during my daily use. Before finding this keyboard cover, I was regularly cleaning my keyboard with canned air. That, however, is a thing of the past. This keyboard cover fits perfectly, sticks so that I don't have to shift it over the keys EVER, and most importantly keeps the keyboard clean. A quick swipe with a cleaning cloth is all it needs, if ever. Love it." —BVES
Get it from Amazon for $6.49+ (available in 31 colors).
40. An absolutely *brilliant* adjustable measuring spoon for anyone with limited drawer space, since it's really six different spoons in one! All you do is drag the slider to your desired amount, from half a teaspoon to one tablespoon, and you'll get the correct measurement — no more digging around in search of multiple spoons.
Promising review: "I really like that I can use just one tool to measure whatever I need by adjusting the spoon size. I cook and bake frequently and this has been so convenient to use. I no longer have to worry about finding a specific spoon size and this takes up less room, which is key since I have limited storage space." —Amber O
Get it from Amazon for $8.64.
41. A pack of reusable silicone food savers you just slip over the cut side of fruits and vegetables or bottle and jar openings to create a tight seal and keep everything nice and fresh. Plus, they'll help you save on plastic wrap!
Each set comes with five silicone food savers.
Promising review: "These look so pretty in your fridge, and they have really saved me a lot of money from 1) throwing away less food and 2) not buying plastic wrap to use once and throw away. They really work and keep food fresh for a long time. I think they may even work better than plastic wrap which I can never get to stick anyway. They clean up easily and store nested in each other so they don't take up much space. The fact that they are cheerful bright colors is just a bonus. I may order a second set in different colors!" —mel
Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in five colors).
42. A case of hundreds of silicone earring backs because you KNOW how easily these babies seem to disappear into thin air. Now you'll always have extras on hand.
Promising review: "These little silicone backs are small, but they tightly hold the earring in place really well. And with 200 pieces in the box, if you drop one (you will), it really doesn’t matter. Now I can safely wear the earrings in my jewelry box that are missing one or both backs. This was an excellent and inexpensive purchase for me. Highly recommend!" —Carol R. Slicher
Get a box of 200 from Amazon for $5.99 (also available in boxes of 1,200 and 2,000).
43. And finally, a pack of elastic fasteners that'll secure that oh-so-wriggly fitted sheet so you won't have to battle with it while you attempt getting a restful night's sleep. Plus, the sight of your newly smooth bedding will turn you into the IRL version of the 🥰 emoji.
Promising review: "These sheet straps are the best purchase I have ever made. I bought a new bed and had to put a thick mattress protector on it for the warranty to remain active, so my sheets fit very snugly. I toss and turn a lot and my dog moves around a lot, so the sheets were always coming off the corner. I bought these, and it only took a couple of minutes to put on. It’s been a week and my sheets have stayed in place. This was the perfect simple and cheap solution for a major annoyance." —Shariece
