1. A super popular ChomChom pet hair remover to roll over furniture, bedding, clothes, or anywhere you'd like your beloved cat's out-of-control shedding to stop accumulating. Best of all? It's totally reusable and doesn't require any annoying sticky film, making it eco-friendly and cost-effective!
Promising review: "This is by far the best thing that I've ever used to remove pet hair from just about any fabric surface, whether it's a couch, bed comforter, or even dress pants! Moving the brush back and forth quickly, as recommended in the instructions, is both the quickest and best method to remove pet hair, and it's super-easy to clean out. Highly recommended!" —MDW

2. And a rubber broom with bristles that attract pet (or human!) hair like a magnet for anyone who finds that their vacuum just isn't doing the job. Use it on carpets or any floor surface — and if your windows are in need of a little cleaning, it also comes with a handy built-in squeegee!
Emma: "An embarrassing confession: I do not have a pet, but I shed like nobody's business. My hair gets so ingrained in the carpet that a vacuum truly does nothing for it, so I often was just unrooting clumps of hair from the floor with my hands (sorry for the visual). I bought this broom and it immediately started pulling it up GOBS of hair. My carpet like, genuinely changed color (turns out the pink was supposed to be much pinker, whoops). Anyway, do with that semi-horrifying information what you will — you can read my full FURemover broom review for more deets."
Promising review: "This thing is seriously the BEST broom ever! We recently took out the carpet in our living room and put laminate in, which is lovely but good lord there are dust bunnies and it doesn't help that we have a ton of animals so the hair is just flying around left and right. Not only does this work well on the hard floors, but I used it in our bedroom which still has carpet in it. I had vacuumed a few days before, but I figured why not try it! Well, holy crap! This thing picked up even more hair that was embedded in the carpet! Works super well on those difficult rugs that are a pain to vacuum as well. But the main reason I bought it was because I hated how the normal broom would just push hair around on the laminate and not where I wanted it to go, whereas this rubber one more so holds on to it and doesn't flick it into the air. Buy it!" —MSH

3. Maybelline's Instant Age Rewind concealer to brighten dark circles and cover up blemishes, pronto. Let's face it — we've all been in those situations where we realize we look like we got mayyybe two hours of sleep the night before, but don't have all the time in the world to try to remedy it. With this, just dab, blend, and you'll instantly look more energized.
Emma: "TBH, at the start of the pandemic I started using this myself (although this is former BuzzFeeder Kayla Suazo's lovely human face above), and I am mad that I wasted time with other concealers for so long. I am a deeply impatient person who likes to look good and does not like to put in effort in any way, shape, or form, and Maybelline created this so that people like me could gracelessly slap it on in the morning and be like "OKAY, REFLECTION, YOU GOT THIS" before being on their merry way. It never cakes, I look way more awake than I have any right to, and I never struggle to blend it the way I do with other concealers. 11/10 subscribe."
Promising review: "I've tried just about every concealer out there, and, surprisingly, this is the best. I say 'surprisingly' because I am one of those persons who tends to dismiss any makeup that costs less than $100 a pop. (I'm a big believer in 'you get what you pay for.') I've found it to be very moisturizing and it's caused me no irritation at all. It's very easy to apply, and I love the fact that the sponge applicator is antimicrobial. I don't like to worry about germs, but I also don't like to be constantly disinfecting. This concealer lasts all day, at least for me. It certainly makes my under eye area look much brighter. I apply it before my tinted moisturizer and kind of blend the two together where they meet, without really covering the concealer. While this conceals dark areas, it doesn't give you that silly white look under the eyes that some concealers can give. Since the skin under our eyes is usually much more delicate than it is on other areas of our face, a lot of under eye concealers can cake. I hate that. I've worn this concealer for 16 hours at a time, in the dry, recycled air of a jet plane, and it has never caked, and I have dry skin. Very dry skin." —Coloratura Kiki

4. A pack of dishwasher cleaning tablets, because how clean could your dishes really be if your dishwasher itself is a mess? Their subtle, crisp scent is a welcome change from those rancid odors that often creep up over time with dishwasher use, and in terms of your dishwasher's appearance, I think the photos speak for themselves.
Just pop them into the tray where you'd normally put detergent (or on the bottom of your dishwasher if you're washing dishes at the same time), and run as usual!
Promising review: "Best dishwasher cleaner yet. I've tried the other dishwasher cleaners. Some require require high temperature water to melt a wax plug. I don't want to add more chemical that will stick to the surfaces. Others don't require melting wax, but they leave a cloying 'fragrance' that lingers for several washers. This product was so easy to use: cut the tablet from its sealed pouch and drop it into the detergent chamber inside the dishwasher and just press start. That SIMPLE! When it was done, the inside appeared to sparkle. Most of the gunk that had built up around the door and all the surfaces were clean. AND there was no lingering cloying odor. It smelled like nothing. Perfect." —David
Get a pack of six tablets from Amazon for $11.78.
5. E.l.f.'s Poreless Putty Primer, which has over 20,000 5-star ratings — probably because it's more than just a smooth makeup base. It contains squalane, which mimics oil naturally found in our bodies to keep thirsty skin hydrated, so your face will feel as good as it looks. Oh, and reviewers say your makeup will. not. budge with this stuff.
Promising review: "Buy this! This is the best primer I’ve ever used. I have huge pores so covering them up is always a task but with this there’s no flake and it goes on so evenly. It’s super hydrating." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
6. A downright magical veggie chopper that'll surely become your new BFF once you realize that by owning it, you'll finally be relieved of your least favorite kitchen task forever. It'll cut down food prep time by a ton, and if you're an onion crier like me, well, no more standing over a cutting board with stinging eyes.
Promising review: "Best chopper I've used! It's super sturdy, cutting onions especially is super easy, even though they have a really hard and waxy skin. My Vidalia chopper failed in less than five uses. And it took so much strength and pressure from me to chop the onions. The blades were blunt. This chopper is the answer to my prayers. The blades are super sharp, and because of this, they have safety features too! Everything can come apart easily, and put back together. So putting it in the dishwasher takes no effort!" —SummerBreeze
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in three models).
7. A set of Miracle-Gro "food spikes" for anyone who lacks a green thumb but is determined to keep their wilting plants from biting the dust. Just stick one of these into the soil, and it'll feed your plants for up to two months!
You'll still need to remember to water, but these will give that greenery the extra little boost it needs!
Promising review: "I am not a gardener and don't have a lot of luck with plants. That said, these spikes are amazing. You can see the difference in weeks. This is the best indoor plant product I have ever used, mainly because it is so darn easy. I definitely recommend these plant spikes." —V. Kline
Get a pack of 48 from Amazon for $6.97.
8. A nontoxic carpet cleaning solution any pet owner will want in their arsenal, stat. You can use it with your vacuum, and not only does it help remove those stubborn stains, reviewers say it'll take care of lingering odors with its refreshingly minty scent as well!
This solution works great with Bissell, Hoover, McCulloch, Rug Doctor, Kenmore, and Carpet Express vacuum cleaners.
Sunny & Honey is a family-run small business making cleaning products designed for pet owners who want keep their homes stain- and odor-free.
Promising review: "What a fantastic product. This is hands-down the best carpet cleaner I have ever used. I have purchased other brands, including the special pet version for my upright carpet shampooer. I mixed it using the same ratio that I typically use with the other product. I thought that I might have to use it a couple of times on the carpet to (hopefully) notice a difference. Nope, it neutralized the odor after just one application. So then I used it on all of my carpets (even the non-pet accident rooms) just to freshen them all up. Try it and then tell your animal-loving friends about it. They will love you for it. I already scored a bottle of wine and a free lunch!" —Anne M Clark
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes).
9. And Bissell's Little Green cleaner, which is essentially like having your own personal stain-lifting professional in your house 24/7. This small yet mighty machine effortlessly removes seemingly impossible stains from carpets and upholstery with its strong spray and suction functions, and its large tank means less refilling while cleaning.
It comes with a tough stain tool, HydroRinse self-cleaning hose tool, and a trial-size Spot & Stain with Febreze Freshness formula.
Promising review: "This thing is great! I have a dog that has difficulty with her bladder, as well as kiddos. I knew trying to soak everything up with just towels wasn't enough. It worked wonders when I knocked over an entire glass of chai. This has great suction power and I feel very comfortable that it is doing an excellent cleaning job. The dirty water side is very easy to dump out to clean which is extremely convenient. So far, it's the best home cleaning tool I've ever purchased!" —LP
Get it from Amazon for $109.59 (also available in a model designed for pets).
10. A box of Mighty Patch blemish patches containing hydrocolloid to spot-treat those pesky skin eruptions that always seem to pop up at the most inconvenient times. Leave 'em on overnight, and in the morning you'll be rewarded with a patch full of gross-yet-satisfying white residue (aka pimple gunk).
BuzzFeed Shopping's Ciera Velarde says: "I've used this specific brand for years now and have found them to be the best at reducing the size and redness of breakouts! Whenever I notice a zit popping up, I put one of these one right before bed, and it stays put all night, even when I toss and turn a lot. By morning, it's much less noticeable and is practically nonexistent when I cover the zit with makeup. It's such a great practically zero-effort way to treat blemishes!"
Promising review: "I am a 40-something woman who still gets pimples. I tried a wide swath of pimple patches. These are the best. Like the goldilocks of patches — some were very adherent but took off skin to remove, some fell off very quickly — these are just right. And they work. They reduce the inflammation and keep gunk from getting in. They also keep you from picking at the zit. My teenage daughter also uses them and they work for her. I have very fair skin and she is much darker and they seem to blend nicely with both skin tones." —K. Dahl
Get a pack of 36 from Amazon for $12.99.
11. A plant-based stainless steel cleaner for anyone who loved the look of their shiny appliances the first week they got them, then quickly realized they're actually a breeding ground for unsightly fingerprints. This spray contains aromatic lavender essential oil, which polishes and shines without streaking and creates a protective barrier for preventing future smudges.
Promising review: "This stainless cleaner is the best I've ever used! I've bought numerous brands over the years attempting to find one that actually works...My search is over! This cleans, polishes, and aids in preventing new smudges. Worth every penny." —Kelly Lyford
Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (also available as a two-pack).
12. A timeless Carhartt beanie that's an absolute LIFESAVER on days when your hair's like, "Nope, don't feel like cooperating!" Throw this baby on and no one will be the wiser — plus, it'll keep your noggin nice and toasty once temps drop!
Promising review: "Best type of this hat I've owned. I like this particular hat because it's long enough that, if it's really cold, you can pull the hat all the way down and double the fabric over your ears to keep them warmer. Most types of these hats I find are not deep enough to do that. So this is by far my favorite cold weather hat. Carhartt put some thought into this hat, and it paid off. Superior." —Dave 76
Another promising review: "This is the warmest, best hat ever. I've never really worn hats, living in California, but have had to go to Minnesota and other cold places recently for work, and it keeps my head SO WARM. It's soft (I hate even the tiniest bit of scratchy feeling) and the purple sage color is muted and elegant and lovely. I don't think I will ever buy another kind of hat again!" —Lia
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in one size and 35 styles).
13. A bottle of highly-rated Nizoral anti-dandruff shampoo, because we already have enough flakes to deal with in our social lives alone. This stuff's formulated with ketoconazole, which delivers welcome relief to dry, itchy scalps.
It's safe to use on color-treated, chemically processed, and gray hair!
Promising review: "Best dandruff shampoo I've ever tried. I’ve had dandruff my whole life, and recently it got much worse and turned into what was pretty much scalp psoriasis. I have tried MANY products and treatments over the past year and nothing has come close to this shampoo. I haven’t had ANY dandruff since I started using it, it took care of my psoriasis as well. Would absolutely recommend for anyone with bad dandruff." —Alicia Eddy
Get it from Amazon for $14.84 (also available as a set with conditioner).
14. A tube of Glossier Boy Brow that'll give you the more textured arches of your dreams, no pricey salon appointment required. Just swipe it on like mascara for a soft, flexible hold that'll last all day without flaking.
Promising review: "Natural and easy! I use Boy Brow everyday that I wear makeup, and I love that natural but refined and full look this gives my brows and sometimes my eyelashes. I got rid of all other brow products immediately and I'm never going back! While the Boy Brow is perhaps not the most inexpensive brow product on the market it is by far the best, and unlike other tinted brow gels out there it doesn't leave your brows with a crusty finish but rather a breathable and flexible finish that manages to keep your brow hairs glued in place. It has become my holy grail eyebrow product and I can't wait to try more of Glossier's products!! :)" —Emma
Get it from Glossier for $17 (available in four shades as well as clear).
Read more about it in our Glossier Boy Brow review alongside reviews of other Glossier products.
15. A tub of *iconic* cleaning paste The Pink Stuff, because once you realize how much stain-lifting power it has, you'll wonder how you ever got anything clean without it. Not only does it get super caked-on stains out, it does so quickly and with minimal effort on your part.
Britt: "Check out yours truly using it three ways on TikTok! 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/TikTok 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."
Promising review: "I always see people using this on TikTok, but the videos don’t even do it justice. The Pink Stuff made everything spotless. Counters, stoves, sinks, literally everything. Best cleaning product in the world and I will literally never use any other brand again." —Hailey Peters
Get it from Amazon for $5.97 (also available in packs of two or three).
16. A Trtl neck pillow that'll actually keep you from awkwardly dozing off on your neighbor's shoulder, thanks to its ergonomic design and soft fleece support. Plus, it'll double as a scarf (planes are COLD), and it looks way more chic than those puffy U-shaped pillows.
Promising review: "Best travel pillow I've ever used. I LOOOVE this thing. The difference between the Trtl and all the other travel pillows I've used is the Trtl offers way better neck support. Instead of pushing your head and neck forward, it holds them up so that your head never falls. With a reclined seat, sleeping mask, and earplugs, you can comfortably get a full night's sleep on long-haul and transcontinental flights. I've slept the entirety of red-eyes from LA to New York and most flights from LA to Europe and Asia. It fits into my carry-on easily. The cushion is soft. The base of the pillow feels sturdy but rests nicely against the chest and shoulders. Once you get your own fit with the "scarf" thingy figured out, you'll love it. It's the perfect travel pillow." —dmednikov
Get it from Amazon for $44.99 (available in black or gray).
17. A microplane foot file with serious smoothing power you'll want if your dry, cracked feet are in need of some TLC and moisturizers alone aren't doing the job. You'll be shocked by how much grated cheese — whoops, skin — it removes, even after the first use. I mean, the photos say it all.
Promising review: "The best callus grater ever! No, seriously people, this thing works!!! The calluses on my feet were so bad they looked like something that could snatch dinner out of a lake. I was skeptical at first because my feet were so bad but after using this amazing callus grater, I am sold. One use and my heels are completely soft. I wish I would have taken before and after pictures. I recommend grating with light steady pressure as I can see hard pressure might rip your heel off. But in all seriousness, this thing is a miracle worker and I highly recommend this product." —Jeff
Get it from Amazon for $9.95.
18. A bottle of Drop It to naturally reduce the sulfites and tannins in a glass of wine, aka the likely culprits of those headaches you're prone to getting after drinking. And don't worry, your vino will still taste exactly the same.
It works with any type of wine, and one little bottle will last for up to 55 glasses!
Drop It recommends 1–2 drops for each glass of white wine, 2–3 for a glass of red, and 7–9 if you're treating the whole bottle at once. Once it's in the glass, swirl lightly for 20 seconds, and enjoy!
Promising review: "This works! I had to stop drinking wine because the sulfites upset my system. I can now enjoy wine again (I drink white wine) I use 2 drops/glass and no more problems! I have tried several other products, but have found this to be the best in terms of price/value and effectiveness." —Judith S.
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 — don't forget to apply the coupon to save $4!
19. A legendary TruSkin Naturals Vitamin C Serum that'll give dull, tired skin new life. Use it on the reg for noticeable results over time, and don't be alarmed by how often you catch yourself looking at your brighter, more even-looking complexion in the mirror.
Promising review: "Best vitamin C serum I've used. Including the dermatologist office and department store brands. Takes very little product to cover face, neck, chest. After second bottle, twice daily use, my jawline tightened and smile lines plumped. My skin feels and looks softer. Foundation smoother. Their customer service is top notch. I've never had a single problem. Good product. The price is incredible! I hope everyone else has the same experience. (And...I have age 50+ skin complete with effects of sun bathing before we knew it was deadly)." —Love My Lab
Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in two sizes).
20. And a bottle of wildly popular Bio-Oil Multiuse Skincare Oil to take your skin from borderline scaly to oh-so-soft. It's formulated with vitamins A and E, along with chamomile, sunflower, and lavender oils to provide much-needed hydration without clogging pores or making skin feel greasy (the worst!). Plus, reviewers say it's fantastic when it comes to reducing the appearance of scars.
Promising review: "This is by far the BEST skincare I have found. I have sun-damaged skin and it has helped more than anything I have used. If used as directed it will not only fade scars, it will also fade brown spots. I use this twice daily and have been using for probably a year now and see a remarkable difference in my skin's appearance. I use instead of lotion, as it absorbs really well." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $8.92+ (available in three sizes).
21. A TikTok-favorite savory seasoning that'll spice up your life — I mean, food. This unassuming yet flavor-packed blend of garlic, onion, cayenne, parsley, and citrus has over 8,000 5-star reviews, and can be used on any veggies or protein you'd like!
Dan-O's is a small biz that was founded by — yes — Dan O. (Oliver), who came up with a spice blend one day and realized it actually tasted really good! People who tried the seasoning told him he should sell it, and the rest, as they say, is history.
Promising review: "Life changing. The best seasoning I’ve ever used. Definitely leveled up my cooking with this! Will order again — but the biggest size this time!" —Josie
Get a pack containing the original and spicy seasonings from Amazon for $20.99.
22. A pair of hybrid leggings and joggers I'm willing to bet you'll be LIVING in once you realize how comfy they are. They'll make you look way more put-together than sweats (even though you'll feel like you're wearing PJs), and with fall quickly approaching, you're gonna want these in your wardrobe asap.
Promising review: "Best sweatpants ever. I can't explain how genuinely happy I am that these pants fit. I have trouble finding pants that fit AND are comfortable AND look good and I just found all three. These pants are very comfortable and soft but not see-through, even if you stretch them. The material seems thin enough to let you breathe but thick and durable enough to last one to three-plus years. (Hard to tell based on one wear, will update as time goes by.) Ordered a 3X and it fits perfectly. I also usually hate wide waistbands especially on my belly but this one is very soft and just mostly feels like extra layers of fabric, but is still pretty secure on your waist. Will definitely buy multiple pairs. :)" —Stacey
Get them from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in women's sizes S–3X and dozens of styles).
23. Plus a cropped workout tank made with a moisture-wicking fabric that'll help banish boob sweat during intense workouts. And even if you're not a gym rat, it's cute enough for everyday wear!
Emma: "TBH, this crossed my radar because of Stephanie Buttermore, a popular YouTuber who shares Stories of her gym routines on Instagram — but I've had a few friends who do yoga, lifting, and lower impact activities swear by these both for workouts and for just chilling in."
Promising review: "Hands down best crop ever! I usually buy Lululemon and this is beats anything I’ve bought there. Quality is amazing. Best feature is YOU DON'T HAVE TO WEAR A BRA! Comes with it built in. I will be buying it in every color. For reference. I’m a 32D bra size 8 in Lululemon sports bras. I bought a large and it’s perfect!" —Christinaaaaa10
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 20 colors).
24. Tower 28's SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray, which anyone who experiences redness and irritation will probably want to include in their skincare regimen. It's a pH-balancing hypochlorous acid toner, meaning it'll soothe and nourish sensitive skin, and reviewers say the light mist made them feel refreshed, not greasy.
Psst: It's a favorite of Hailey Bieber!
Tower 28 is a small biz whose founder, Amy Liu, has struggled with eczema for years. The brand specializes in products for sensitive skin, and everything is also vegan and cruelty-free.
Promising review: "I have been using this spray for about a year now and it is by far the best facial spray on the market. I’ve struggled with acne and dry, sensitive skin for the majority of my life. Now at 26, my skin has never been clearer and I attribute a lot of that to this spray. I went away for a weekend with friends and didn’t pack this because of space, instantly regretted it. As soon as I got back home and reintroduced it into my skin care, my breakouts and dry patches from the weekend cleared up. Can’t say enough good things about this brand, JUST DO IT!" —RebeccaSheps
Get it from Sephora for $12+ (available in two sizes).
25. And speaking of sensitivity, a SPF 50 sunscreen serum made specifically for breakout-prone skin so you can feel confident about slathering it on. Not only does it offer protection against UVA and UVB rays, it actually helps correct dark spots and soothes breakouts while blending seamlessly into your skin.
ZitSticka is a small biz specializing in skincare products for sensitive, breakout-prone skin with the goal of destigmatizing topics like zits and acne.
Promising review: "This is now the only sunscreen I use. It looks fantastic under all base products and actually helps in their application (no pilling!) My favorite thing is that it’s a one-and-done product: sunscreen, acne prevention, and makeup prep all in one easy step. The fewer products used on oily, acne-prone skin, the better! I am 39 and still have much of the same skin concerns I’ve always had and it would have been great to have this product 20 years ago. I have tried other, much more expensive options, but this is best-in-class for us acne-prone folks. I am already on my second bottle and will continue to repurchase. Lastly, it’s kind of fun to use with the cute little bottle-and-dropper system. If you don’t enjoy the chore of applying sunscreen every day, this will probably help you change your ways." —KR
Get it from Amazon or ZitSticka for $26+ (available in two sizes).
26. A 100% natural oven scrub made of pumice that'll cut through tough stains just as well as chemical cleaners, meaning no unpleasant odors to see (smell?) here. One of your least favorite chores just got a whole lot more tolerable.
It also comes with a metallic scrubber!
Everneat is a small Etsy shop based in Fairfield, Connecticut, that specializes in natural cleaning products.
Promising review: "This is by far the best oven cleaner. It truly works for removing old, baked-in grime from the oven. Plus it is safe to use if you have pets or small children. I love it." —Julissa Contreras
Another promising review: "This stuff is MAGIC! One application and it took 15 years of yuck off my oven that refused to come off with other oven cleaners! The product does most of the work so you really don’t have to scrub for hours. Highly recommend this stuff!" —Traci Hutchinson
Get it from Everneat on Etsy for $19.99 (available in two scents).
27. A cooling, memory foam contoured sleep mask you'll be super happy you purchased on nights when you're craving a good night's sleep but your partner has at least two more hours of TikTok-scrolling in them. Bye bye, disruptive screen glare! Plus, the molded padding gives your eyes some very welcome breathing room.
Promising review: "The BEST BEST BEST and most comfortable sleep mask I’ve found. Night shifter for years, and have tried everything. Many other sleep masks have some qualities but not all. Some are high quality material but let light in, others are comfortable but material frays or cones apart after a few months, some are good for blackout but have a hard metal adjustment clasps on the band hurts when you sleep on it. This one has an adjustable coast on the band but I don’t feel it when I’m sleeping like others. This one is AMAZINGLY SOFT, VERY THICK, plush, high quality material, quality stitching that won’t come apart like so many others that are cheaply made, and it’s EXTREMELY COMFORTABLE even though it’s a good price. Very impressed and pleasantly surprised." —V
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in five colors).
28. A compact 8-in-1 spiralizer that also transforms into a juicer, grater, shredder, and more whenever you wanna get a little ~cheffy~ with meal prep. Rather than buying a bunch of little individual tools (that end up requiring way more drawer space than you'd think), you've got 'em all right here.
Just swap out the inserts to go from one function to another!
Emma: "I recently purchased this because it was my cheapest option for making zoodles, and also because my apartment is the size of a shoebox and there was no room for anything bigger. I LOVE how easy it is to swap out the caps to do other things, too — I've started grating my own cheeses and feel very fancy. But mostly I just love that it's very safe to use (it comes with a finger guard!), super easy to figure out, very compact, and even has measurements on the inside of the cup if you're ever portioning things out for a recipe."
Promising review: "This is the second spiralizer that I have purchased, and by far the best I have used. It's super easy to use and to clean. My other spiralizer that I had was difficult to clean properly and I want to use they as often as possible so the use and cleaning of the product is very important! Fullstar Vegetable Spiralizer is a great product and I will be purchasing more to give as gifts for the holiday season. I would definitely recommend. A+++ item." —Yvonne I

29. A bottle of Elizavecca Hair Treatment packed with ceramides and collagen to help repair brittle, damaged hair in minutes. Just apply it to your wet hair, let it sit for a little bit, then rinse it out to reveal shinier, frizz-free hair you'll wanna toss and flip in excitement.
It's designed to work for all hair types, with reviewers with 2a through 4c hair saying it worked for them!
Promising review: "I have naturally blonde, medium length, more coarse hair that gets damaged from heat styling and is just naturally dry. I was looking for a hair mask to help heal my dry ends and just general damage. I followed the directions on the box, and left it in my hair for 15 mins, and rinsed my hair, and styled as normal, and my hair has never been so sleek, and NOT weighed down, and the hair cuticles are together, and not frizzy. AND it's sooooo humid outside today and my hair stayed looking fresh. BONUS! I've tried so many masks and treatments that have weighed down my hair or left a weird residue, this is the best one I've ever tried. For my hair length/thickness, I could get about five treatments from this size of a bottle." —Annie J.

30. And SheaMoisture's Smoothie Curl Enhancing Cream, which contains conditioning ingredients like silk protein and neem and coconut oils. It helps reduce frizz for more defined, bouncy curls without that ~crispy~ texture, and many reviewers said it left their hair feeling super soft!
Promising review: "Best low porosity curl smoothie. Love this for my low porosity 4a/4b hair. My hair is so soft, curly, and moisturized after using this curl smoothie. I also do the LCO method on my hair and it performs well. Even two to three days after a twist-out, my hair is so soft!" —Bonner
Get it from Amazon for $10.49.
31. A pair of thick touchscreen-friendly gloves you'll be reeeally happy you bought come wintertime when you wanna skip to the next song on your playlist without subjecting your poor little fingies to the frigid air.
Promising review: "I love these gloves. These fit well, they are soft, and warm. The pads on the palm and fingers give the a sure grip and the nodules on the thumb and two fingers allow me to use my iPhone without taking them off. These are the best gloves I've ever had." —Jere in Miami
Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in sizes M-XL and 12 colors).
32. A pre-seasoned Lodge cast-iron skillet, which will likely become one of your most reached-for cooking vessels once you realize how versatile it is. Cast iron offers great heat retention, making it perfect for searing, sautéing, frying, and so much more. Plus, it can be used on the stove and in the oven, or even over a grill or fire!
Britt: "I've had my Lodge skillet for maybe seven years now, and I love it just as much today as the first day I got it. Nothing — and I mean NOTHING — is better when it comes to achieving the perfect golden brown pancake, crackly-skinned fish, and crispy on the outside, gooey on the inside baked pasta (see photo above!). Contrary to popular belief, it's incredibly easy to care for, and as long as you don't let it rust it'll last you FOR-EV-ER. I'm already planning on baking some cornbread in it for Thanksgiving!"
Promising review: "Best pan I've ever had. I can’t believe I just found this gem! I have been using nonstick pans for years and decided to try something with less chemical on it. This Lodge cast-iron skillet looks like it will last for centuries! It can easily go from stove to oven, even to my outdoor grill. The seasoning part seemed daunting at first, but once a nice protective layer is built up, cleaning just means an easy rinse with water and drying with heat." —Amazonian
Get a 10.25-inch skillet from Amazon for $19.90 (also available in seven other sizes, and in bundles with accessories).
33. A grout cleaner that actually sticks to grime and buildup to leave your backsplash (and any other dirty caulk) looking like new. Let it sit overnight, then wipe away and voila!
Promising review: "Best grout stain cleaner ever! I was to the point of having my shower retiled when I discovered this product. I got a grout brush and cleaned my shower the best I could like always, and there were still mildew and mold stains on the grout and the seals. After I rinsed and dried my shower, I used this product, Skylarlife Home Grout Stain and Sealant Stain Whitener. It was like a miracle! After about five hours, I rinsed my shower. It looks AMAZING! Almost like new! My home is over 50 years old and this shower looks clean and in great shape! Thank you so much for this product. I will always keep a bottle on hand for touch-ups. It is the best I have ever seen." —J. Shaw
Get it from Amazon for $13.99.
34. A popular time-marked water bottle, because if you're anything like me, you *know* you should be drinking more H2O but...rarely do. 😬 What's so ingenious about this bad boy is not only does it help you track the amount of water you're drinking, it also motivates you with encouraging phrases along the way so you'll actually wanna "keep chugging!"
Promising review: "Hands-down, best water bottle. Not too heavy and easy to carry. I can’t believe the time markers haven’t faded on the Cactaki. I had another bottle with time markers that faded in just a few months. Definitely helps keep you on track. It is easy to add fruit and ice. The strainer on top keeps the fruit from blocking the flow of water. The large mouth of the bottle makes it easy to clean and add any size fruit or ice to eat. I am getting ready to order another one just to keep on hand and I rarely order anything twice. I just love this water bottle and it so much better than bottles that I have paid more money for." —Elaine
Get it on Amazon for $21.99+ (available in 15 colors).
35. A foaming garbage disposal cleaner to rid your kitchen of those gross, lingering smells coming from your sink — you know, the ones that always make you think, Wow, should I be cleaning my garbage disposal? The answer is a resounding YES!, since this stuff will replace those yucky odors with a bright, lemony scent. Plus, watching it bubble up is pretty fun!
Promising review: "This is by far the best cleaner for the disposal. It not only foams away grime from disposal, but also the drain in the next-door sink. I have tried other cleaners, which do little or nothing, and when I couldn't find Glisten at the big box store where I originally purchased it, I even tried the old standby of baking soda and vinegar. While that was better than using those little citrus smelling beads, I was really happy to find this product on Amazon. I now have several months' supply and will not be without again." —Anne B. Ward
Get a four-pack from Amazon for $4.25 (also available as a pack of 24).
36. Essence's Lash Princess mascara for instantly lengthier, more voluminous lashes without the need for pesky falsies and glue. And lots of reviewers say it lasts throughout the day and never clumps, so it'll probably be the best five bucks you'll ever spend.
Emma: "Hello, that is my face above, because I bought into the hype of over 100,000 positive reviews and now I will never look back!! It doesn't get clumpy, it stays put ALL the live long day (I spent all of this ridiculously hot pandemic summer wearing it, so I can speak to that), and you can apply it on very lightly if you don't want it to look so dramatic, or continue applying for longer lashes each time."
Promising review: "This is the best mascara. I have had the worst time finding a mascara that I like. I have tried everything. I saw all the great reviews and the photos and the GREAT PRICE. For the price I had to try it. When I received and tried it, I immediately ordered one for my mom to try. She loved it also. This is my new mascara. you won't go wrong with this!" —Monica Spisak
Get it from Amazon for $4.99 (also available as a three-pack).
37. A makeup brush cleansing shampoo, because let's be honest — your blending sponges are probably coated in foundation, bronzer, and who knows what else. With this, you can extend the life of your applicators (save that money!) and avoid touching your face with something filthy.
Promising review: "Best, most affordable brush and sponge shampoo on the market! No joke, I have tried everything; even homemade hacks like dish detergent mixed with olive oil. Nothing works like this brush shampoo. Don't waste your money on the Beauty Blender soap and other big-name brands." —Lily
Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (also available as a pack of two and with dissolving cleansing cloths).
38. A handheld milk frother for whipping up all of the foamy bevs of your dreams — no fancy espresso machine (or soul-shattering Starbucks line) required.
Promising review: "Best frother that I've ever used...very comfortable to use and powerful, too. Got this to replace another branded one that zonked out on me after only a couple of months. Love love this frother. I use it to 'blend' my morning coffee with coconut oil. This frother is more powerful than my last. The stand is a nice little bonus to keep the frother off the table and from rolling off the counter. The handle is very comfortable to hold. The back (if the label is facing you), has an index finger rest. I highly recommend this frother." —N Duong
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in 43 styles).
39. CeraVe's Hydrating Facial Cleanser, which was specifically formulated with dry skin in mind. It gently removes residue without stripping the skin of its natural moisture, and contains three ceramides and hyaluronic acid to help restore and maintain the skin barrier.
Promising review: "I have very sensitive skin and problems with blackheads and clogged pores. I’ve been struggling to find a cleaner that will help eliminate my breakouts without irritating and drying out my face. Well I have finally found it! CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleaner is by far the best I have ever tried. It gently cleans and hydrates at the same time and has definitely helped with getting rid of my blackheads and large pores, leaving my skin soft and glowing. I would highly recommend it!" —L Ann Blanch
Get it from Amazon for $14.57.
40. A Petcube, because it's tough leaving our four-legged babies alone at home! With this, you can monitor their behavior from afar and even receive notifications if the camera detects anything atypical.
Plus, an on-demand vet is available for consultations 24/7 should you notice a change in your pet's behavior.
Petcube is a California-based small business established in 2012 that specializes in interactive HD pet camera products.
Promising review: "The best pet cam on the market. Honestly in love. Was debating on getting this or the Furbo and I love this. I don’t need a treat dispenser so I just got the camera version and it does the job and I can check in on my dog all day everyday whether I’m in another room or not at home. Love it, quality is crisp and clear, this product deserves much more recognition." —Megan
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (also available in packs of two and three).
41. A plant-based Puracy spray reviewers say will send even the most stubborn tomato sauce, oil, sweat, and baby poop stains packing their bags. Now you won't have to throw out your favorite throw blanket after your very adorable (and very not-potty-trained) puppy has an accident on it 🙃
Based in Austin, Texas, Puracy was started by two best friends with the aim of making plant-based cleaning products that are gentle enough to use around children.
Promising review: "Hands-down: best stain remover ever. I haven’t found a stain it won’t work on. It’ll take out old grease stains, even after the clothes have been through the dryer. For tough or old stains, saturate it and let it if sit for hours, even overnight. It’ll get it out. I’ll never get another stain remover." —Margaret E.
Get it from Amazon for $7.49+ (available in two sizes).
42. A set of dermaplaning razors for those times when you notice some unwanted hair and you're like, this has gotta go, STAT. It's gentle enough for more sensitive areas, and works wayyy faster than plucking individual hairs one by one.
It'll also make your skin feel softer because it exfoliates as it shaves!
Promising review: "I’ve tried many different eyebrow/facial razors before. Hands down this is the best brand I have ever used. I love how it comes with an extra piece to go over the razor when trimming/cleaning up your eyebrows! I highly recommend." —Brandy
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $5.67 (also available as a nine-pack).
43. And finally, a pair of wireless sleep headphones you can wear as a headband while you drift off to the sounds of soothing music, white noise, audiobooks, or podcasts. No more accidentally falling asleep with earbuds in — and inevitably waking up tangled in cords.
Promising review: "Oh my goodness! Where has this been all my life?? Just a couple of days ago I was trying to sleep with earbuds in. I would wake up every time I moved because they were hard and hurt my ears. But THESE wireless headphones are the best! I can turn over in bed freely and it doesn't wake me up. I have trouble getting to sleep and staying asleep. Now I can play sleep videos which help drone me to sleep and keep me asleep. The only drawback is that while I love the material it can be a little warm in the middle of the night. I LOVE THEM!!" —Godsinger
