1. A nifty gadget called the Bug Bite Thing because if you're anything like me, you get super excited about 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.
See one TikTok reviewer demonstrate how it's used here!
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 $9.85 (also available in packs of two or three).
2. A Korean microdermabrasion mitt you can use in the shower when you wanna buff away dry, dead skin (but feel like you're getting a spa treatment). The exfoliation comes from a skin-smoothing viscose fiber lining, and once it's cleared away all the flaky stuff, your skin will have an easier time absorbing lotions and creams. If you love a gross-yet-satisfying moment, this is for you.
Watch one TikToker use it to remove their self-tanner build-up here!
Promising review: "I love these mitts so much, I wish I found them sooner! For me, brushes and loofas don’t give me enough exfoliation and they fall apart and get gross too fast. These mitts are perfect. Also, they are way more cost effective and easier to use than a sugar scrub type product. I feel like these mitts will last a long time, and they’re easy to clean and have a loop so you can hang them to dry in your shower. I keep one at my place and one at my boyfriend's. They are a little rough so it’s not something you want to use more than twice per week, and use gentle motions in sensitive areas. My skin is so smooth after I use these and it’s helped me get rid of ingrown hairs on my bikini line. Just make sure to moisturize after using! I’m excited to use it for when I apply fake tan in the summer months." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (also available as a pair).
3. A tub of *iconic* cleaning paste The Pink Stuff, because once you realize how much stain-lifting power this unassuming stuff has, you'll wonder how you ever got anything clean without it. Not only does it get stains out, it does so quickly and with minimal effort on your part.
See it in action on TikTok here!
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 it from Amazon for $5.97.
4. 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: "So I’ll admit I got this on a whim after a TikTok video; however I’m in love with this thing! It’s so much fun to use and you make your at home drinks feel so much more special. It’s easy to use and froths pretty quickly if you’re on the fence I’d say what are you waiting for buy it already!" —Denise
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in 40 styles).
5. A super popular pet hair remover you can use on furniture, bedding, clothes, or anything where shedding tends to accumulate. Best of all? It's totally reusable and doesn't require any annoying sticky film, making it eco-friendly!
See how much hair it picks up from a white couch on TikTok here!
Promising review: "This thing is magical and I wish I had found it sooner. Even the most stubborn of dog hairs that have been seemingly woven into the fabric of your couch are no match for the ChomChom. The satisfying click of the roller will have you ChomChom-ing every surface you possibly can, while your dog looks at you in cold betrayal for removing his precious fur deposits. He plots revenge against this new nemesis, revenge that is doomed to fail from the start, because the ChomChom is far too powerful. Meanwhile, you are transfixed by the serotonin rush filling your brain as your ChomChom fills with more and more hair, leaving a path of de-furred sofa in its wake. The dog barks in disapproval. You smile, finally sitting on fur-free furniture for the first time in a long time. Maybe you’ll even have friends over now." —Will

Promising review: "Best decision! These are the greatest headphones ever! I saw them on TikTok months ago and added them to my wishlist.

7. 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 cryer like me, well, no more standing over a cutting board with stinging eyes.
Watch one TikToker effortlessly chop a bunch of vegetables with it here!
Promising review: "Makes life so much easier. I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. We used to have a Prepworks chopper that was a similar idea, but you had to press so hard to chop, and it broke after not too long. This one requires very little effort to cut through the food and it has a generous container." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $32.98+ (available in black or white).
8. E.l.f.'s Poreless Putty Primer, which has over 18,000 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. go. anywhere with this stuff.

Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok and thought I'd take a chance. I have sensitive skin and have to watch what I use. I LOVE this product! Goes on smooth and you don't need to use a lot. I put it on before I put on my foundation. Makes a huge difference. Highly recommend and will buy again!!" —Leslie Mattingly
Get it from Amazon for $9.
9. A fan-favorite carpet cleaner that'll help you keep your cool the next time the dog/kid/S.O. makes a mess on that white rug you insisted on getting. Don't worry, it'll make stains and regret vanish!
See it work its magic on a red wine stain on a TikToker's white carpet here!
Promising review: "This stuff is AMAZING. We have a 1.5-year-old puppy and have make several futile attempts to clean up carpet stains from her potty training days. Another dog owner clued us into this, and we cannot believe we didn't buy it sooner. Seriously, the same night this arrived, I spilled an entire bottle of beer on white carpet (oops), grabbed the Folex, sprayed a bunch onto the stain, massaged it into the carpet with my finger tips, and blotted with a damp towel. You can't see ANY remnant of a stain. I've also attacked old stains (like one-plus year old) and saw the same results. Seriously, buy this!!!" —AKM
Get it from Amazon for $12.85+ (available in two sizes).
10. Tower 28's SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray, which anyone who experiences redness and irritation should 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.
See why one TikToker is a fan here — plus, 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: "This product is a life saver. I haven't had any major breakouts since using this facial spray. Whenever I feel my skin getting irritated, I just spray this on to help heal/soothe it. This product lessened the redness on my face and helped improve the overall texture/appearance of my skin. Also started using this on my mom two days ago and we've noticed a lot of the red texture on her skin fading out. Love this and will continue repurchasing!!" —MargaritaYanga
Another promising review: "I struggle with acne and needed something to help calm and soothe my skin when it was really irritated. My skin tends to be dry right after cleaning and spraying this leaves my skin feeling so comfortable and like I haven’t done anything to it. Back to normal happy skin feel. It is part of my daily routine now. Absolutely love this!" —CliftonM2121
Get it from Sephora for $12+ (available in two sizes).
11. An unassuming O-Cedar mop and bucket set that even professional house cleaners swear by for spotless floors. It might not magically get you to love cleaning, but it'll probably get you to, you know, ACTUALLY clean.
Watch one fan on TikTok use it here!
Reviewers say its hands-free wringing system is a total game changer — all you have to do is press the pedal down with your foot and it'll spin away excess water (like in the GIF above). Another plus is the mop head, which has a unique triangular shape for getting into hard-to-reach corners and can be cleaned in the washing machine!
Promising review: "OK I know this is lame, but I am like, obsessed with this mop. It is just extremely well designed in almost every way. The handle is extendable but collapses pretty small, the mop head is removable and can be put in the wash, the mop head is triangle shaped so it fits in corners, the spin pump is easy to use and gets water out super efficiently. The only small thing is that the mop bucket doesn't have wheels. But it's so forgivable given everything else." —Rexana
Get it from Amazon for $34.97+ (also available as a set with extra mop heads).
12. A microplane foot file with serious smoothing power you'll want if your dry, cracked feet could use some TLC. You'll be shocked by how much dead skin it removes, even after the first use — I mean, the photos say it all.
See how much dead skin one TikToker was able to remove from their husband's feet here (maybe don't eat while watching).
Promising review: "I have purchased every callus cream on the market and it has been a waste of time and money. This simple device is a miracle worker. The callus on my big toe is very, very hard and the nearby callous along the side of the foot, while not as large and hard, is also difficult. I have used this device three days in a row, taking off a little at a time and not applying pressure. I apply lotion before and after using it and both areas show substantial improvement. It is important that you do not rush this process. Just a little at a time. Remember how long it took for that callus to form! Because I have been gentle and careful, I have no pain. Cleaning is simple. I wholeheartedly recommend!" —desertdragonfly
Get it from Amazon for $9.95.
13. And a popular foot exfoliant you can wear with your legs propped up as you binge your favorite series. Your jaw will *drop* when you see how much these transform your feet.
Check it out in action on TikTok here!
With these foot mask "socks," you just slide them onto your feet, leave them on for an hour to let the gel soak into your feet, and you should start to see the dead skin peel away within 6–11 days (with remarkably softer feet in two weeks!).
Promising review: "TikTok made me buy it. My feet were dry, cracked, and needed this. This works AMAZING! After two to three days my feet felt itchy. Trust the process. After the third day my feet began to itch a little. I showered after work and it just be prepared because the process was FREAKY! My feet are so soft, no cracks. I love how they feel and look now. I bought a second pack. I’ll continue to use this foot peel." —Mermaidme

14. An at-home slushy-making cup if you're looking to cut down on your monthly 7-Eleven bills. All you do is freeze the cup for 4–6 hours, add your cold beverage, squeeze for 1–2 minutes, and you'll be on your way to frozen treat bliss.
See what a couple of TikTokers think when they try it out here!
Promising review: "My husband a LOVES Slushies! He used to buy one a few times a week. Now he can have a slushy any time, with just a cold drink from the fridge. Easy to use, made in under two minutes. And cleanup is just a quick rinse after each use (I still use soap). Put it back to freeze and use it again. Comes with reusable straw, and stickers (I gave them to our 5-year-old)! Amazing deal for the price, it's already paid for itself since Christmas!" —MC
Get it from Amazon for $17.50+ (available in 15 colors and in packs of two).
15. And a Yonanas fruit soft-serve maker that'll have you churning out delicious ice cream-esque treats made of literally just frozen fruit. Easy, refreshing, and fun!
Watch one TikTok reviewer make strawberry and banana ice cream here!
Promising review: "I saw one of these in action at a friend's house like five years ago and thought it was just a made-up memory, because making ice cream out of solely frozen fruit seems wild. But when I saw a TikTok about it I immediately went to Amazon and bought it. Literally this was the BEST decision of my life. I cannot believe still how amazing this thing is! It makes the creamiest, best tasting fruit ice cream ever. It’s easy to take apart and clean, and super easy to use." —DMCKAY
Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in six colors).
16. 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.
Watch a TikTok reviewer apply the mascara here!
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Emma Lord says: "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: "Great coverage on the first swipe! I have been searching for a good mascara for months and have had no luck. I saw this was on sale and had good reviews so figured I’d give it a try. I was really really surprised most mascaras are goopy the first time you try time and end up getting all over I didn’t have an issue with this one which was a pleasant surprise, the brush is fiber and not silicon another pulse for me, first swipe I was shocked, it covered well and made my lashes look thicker and longer, I waited a few seconds and applied one more coat and that was it! No need to keep going back over them, I haven’t tried to remove it yet but I’m very happy with it and I think my search for the perfect mascara might be over!" —Amber Barrie
Get it from Amazon for $4.99.
17. 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!
Check out a TikToker wearing the black beanie here!
Promising review: "Saw this hat on TikTok and decided to place my order! I needed a cozy guy for the winter. It can get very cold where I live especially during morning time when I’m walking my dog. I need to keep my ears warm! The material is so soft and there are many color options. I got the black one." —Yamit
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in one size and 25 styles).
18. A highly rated portable car vacuum, because those fast-food crumbs aren't gonna clean themselves! It's compact enough for storing in your car at all times *just in case* and reviewers say its 16-foot cord is great for reaching the backs of larger vehicles.
See why one TikToker calls it a "Car Must-Have" here!
It comes with three attachments: flathead, extendable, and brush nozzle, along with a carry bag, filter brush, and spare HEPA filter.
Here's what BuzzFeeder Stephanie Hope has to say about it: "When I tell you that I use this product often, I mean it. It's so easy to plug in, vacuum dirt from the floor or seat, and put it away. It comes with three different attachments and an extra filter! My tip is to use the brush attachment for everything as it will kick dirt off the carpet fibers, making it easier to suction."
Promising review: "Decided to buy this vacuum cleaner because we have a baby and we need to keep our surroundings clean. We were pleasantly surprised with the quick delivery, packaging, and the bag that it came with, making it very convenient to carry around and keep at one place. The vacuum itself is powerful, easily cleaned out the sand from the car seats, as well as the other dirt from the floor mat. The chord is long, so you don't have to worry about the back seats and trunk. Easy to clean, comes with an extension to get into narrow spots. We're satisfied!" —AsadaFries

It's designed to work on all hair types, and reviewers with 2a–4c curls love it!
Promising review: "Amazing!! I had NO idea that my frizzy-haired little girl had beautiful curls. I went down an Instagram rabbit hole and saw a similar girl show how her frizz was curls. I ordered this!! My mind has been blown!! This has changed our lives. It smells so good! It is easy to use and air dry. Before my daughter woke up with terrible bed head that looked like this!

See why one TikToker says it's a must for trips to Disney here!
Promising review: "The holy grail of portable chargers !!! I was traveling to Disney for vacation and knowing me, I would drain my battery with just taking pictures alone. I wanted a portable battery but didn’t want a carry a cord either, so I was excited when I found this little baby! It does exactly as described, pretty pink color, and I get one full charge of battery for my iPhone 11. Get it, you will not be disappointed!" —Meghan Doble

Watch one TikToker try it out here!
Promising review: "Very light, covers anything, wears well, and improves skin texture. I have been using for one year, consistently, love it. Highly recommend. I even use it on the back of my hands." —Zukimima
Another promising review: "My makeup artist used this on my wedding day and I was so blown away with the coverage of my redness. I ordered a jar for myself shortly after and it’s quickly become a holy grail in my skincare/makeup routine. I don’t even need to use green concealer if I put this on under my makeup. The SPF is an added bonus!" —MariaTheGreek
Get it from Sephora for $20+ (available in two sizes).
23. A jar of Fly By Jing Sichuan Chili Crisp you'll probably start putting on every morsel of food you intend on eating — assuming you don't consume the entire jar with a spoon first. It's juuust the right amount of spicy without being overpowering, and it'll elevate even the most simple bowl of instant noodles.
See what one TikTok reviewer has to say about the chili crisp, along with Fly By Jing's Zhong Sauce and Mala Spice Mix here.
Fly By Jing is an Asian woman-owned small business that makes sauces, seasonings, and dumplings featuring flavors from Sichuan.
Ever since my sister introduced me to this life-changing condiment, I've slathered it on pretty much everything I could think of — from roasted vegetables and noodles to seafood and popcorn. It's got a kick, yes, and while I'm a big fan of spicy food, the thing I love most about this chili crisp is that it also has great flavor that doesn't get overpowered by the heat, which happens with so many other spicy sauces. That deep savory flavor comes from ingredients like fermented black bean, shallots, mushroom powder, ginger, and seaweed, so it's no wonder it's become my go-to pantry staple when I want to zhuzh up my dinner. PS: Some people even swear by it as an ice cream topping!

Danessa Myricks Beauty is a Black woman–owned small biz dedicated to creating "a world of beauty for people from all races, ages, and genders." FYI, this product is cruelty-free!
Promising review: "This is my first time trying this product and I absolutely love it. It is transfer-proof and the color is very vibrant. I used it as a lipstick, eyeliner, and an eyeshadow. I have combination skin, and I have to say I’m pleased with the wearability of this product. Upon applying it, it feels like a cream, but once it dries, it becomes weightless and matte. I really loved this product because I could barely tell I was wearing anything on my face. Usually, I have a hard time finding products that are genuinely transfer-proof, smudge-proof, and weightless. I am so happy I stumbled upon this product. I also have to say that it’s pretty easy to take off as well depending on what products you use. I used the Garnier waterproof micellar water and with a few swipes there was very little smudging, and the product came right off." —whailey

I will be purchasing another one for my husband and also one for my mom in different colors!" —Rose

Check it out on TikTok here!
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

Promising review: "I am obsessed with this product! I got it for a themed day and it was so simple to set up and use. The gems are sticky, which I thought was much less damaging to my hair than if they were staples, and they stayed in for over eight hours until I removed them. They were so cute, and because they are sticky, you can put them other places like on your face. Loved these." –JL Jackson

30. A sleek folding travel mirror with adjustable brightness levels so you can see your face clear as day without having to deal with those harsh lights that seem to be in every hotel bathroom. It has a little stand so you can prop it up, but collapses flat for easy breezy packing.
See why one TikToker calls it a "travel essential" here!
It comes with a rechargeable battery!
Promising review: "Absolute must for travel. Hotels and Airbnbs rarely have both good lighting and a good mirror to sit down and do your makeup at. With this guy though, you won't have that worry. The different lights are wonderful for different settings; the mirror is sturdy and lightweight. It does not feel cheap at all, in fact, it is the best travel mirror I have purchased. I am now using this on a daily basis, so I think it was an awesome find, not just for traveling but also for every day! It also is really slim and fits in your carry-on easily." —Alexandra

Try your hand at unconventional waffles via the included recipe book, and take comfort in the fact that the nonstick cooking surface cleans like a dream.

Then I randomly bought this and it is amazing!!!!!! The waffles are the same size as the frozen waffles and easy to make with a mix. It heats quickly, cooks evenly, and is easy to wipe down. Plus it’s tiny so it stores well. Quick tip: spray it down with Pam or something similar just in case. Also, BUY IT!" —rooks1101

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 perfectly! 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

33. A shampoo scalp massager you're gonna be angry you didn't invent yourself (but will absolutely LOVE using during all future showers). Not only does it help evenly distribute shampoo (no more residue pockets!), it'll give you alllll of those pleasurable scalp tingles.

Promising review: "I saw this little thing all over TikTok and everyone swore by it. To be honest, they’re right and I now swear by it. It’s perfectly soft and sturdy to massage the scalp. Works shampoo into roots, helps with dry skin and such. I absolutely love it and I use it every time I wash my hair. I most definitely would recommend to anyone. Don’t hesitate." —Z
Get it from Amazon for $6.98+ (available in three colors).
34. A box of Mighty Match 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).
Check these out on TikTok here!
BuzzFeed Shopping editor 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 heard all about these on TikTok so I decided to order. I switched my birth control and was having a ton of breakouts, these are amazing! They helped me stop picking at my face and my skin is so clear now. Will always have these in my house from now on!" —Kiara Galloway
Get a pack of 36 from Amazon for $12.99.
35. A nifty Bread Buddy dispenser, which keeps loaves fresh for much longer than just storing them in their plastic bags by creating an airtight seal. Wrap the top of the bag over the sides of the dispenser, then just pull down whenever you want a slice (it's fun!). Plus, some reviewers say they bring it on trips when they don't want their bread getting smushed en route.
See it in action on TikTok here!
Promising review: "The Buddeez Sandwich Bread Dispenser is great! It does exactly what it was intended for. I live alone and I don't quite go through bread often enough before the last quarter section of the loaf starts to go stale. I was originally looking for something to put a loaf of bread in as a shell for my vacuum sealer, that would keep the bread from getting crushed from the pressure. This dispenser solved all of my problems. Thank you!" —DRMcQuaig
Get it from Amazon for $13.23.
36. Youthforia's BYO Blush, a light oil that changes color by reacting to your skin's pH level to give you a positively dewy, all-day hue that's totally unique to you. And not only that, it's packed with antioxidants to help hydrate. Cakey skin? I don't know her.
Watch one TikToker rave about it here!
It's also 100% fragrance- and cruelty-free.
Youthforia was founded by Fiona Co Chan with the goal of creating makeup that is also good for your skin — "so good you could sleep in it."
Promising review: "Best summer blush. My two favorite things about this blush are its versatility and its longevity. It always makes me look naturally flushed from being in the sun, even if I've been inside all day 🤭 I like that it looks different on me and my sister, even though we have similar skin tones! And since it's an oil, it's great for wearing to work (I work in food service) since I don't have to worry about it transferring onto my mask or fading before the end of my shift. Love this!!" —Sahrang H.
Another promising review: "First of all, it's everything. E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G. This is extremely compatible with the glass skin look: It's super dewy but has massive staying power. I put this on at 4 p.m., I woke up at 6 a.m., and it's still on! I originally planned to only wear this on no makeup days as I was worried that, as an oil product, it may lift my makeup underneath. I can say now with confidence it doesn't mess with my base at all. It doesn't feel heavy, is easy to blend, and makes my skin look plump. I've been complimented on my skin, rather than my makeup, with this product on. I generally don't believe in hype, but I see why someone would be excited about this product — there's simply nothing like it, and it does a fantastic job. Looking forward to Youthforia future products!" —Lalita
Get it from Amazon or Youthforia for $36.
37. 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.
Watch one TikTok fan (a mom of two little boys!) use it to remove stains from a top, mattress, and comforter here.
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).
38. A portable door lock to give you a little peace of mind when you're staying in a hotel (or even your own home, for that matter). It works on pretty much any inward-opening door to keep anyone from being able to open the door from the outside (even with a key!) and requires zero tools or installation hardware!
Watch one TikToker show how it's used here!
Just note that if you're flying with it, you'll want to keep it in an easy-to-reach spot in your bag, as one of our BuzzFeed Shopping editors said TSA flagged hers at two separate airports.
Promising review: "My apartment door has a deadbolt but no lock on the door handle. The latch is also misplaced so if it’s not dead bolted anyone can just push my door open. Took a few tries to get this right but makes me feel much more secure and it’s easy to use when you get the hang of it! I also take this with me when traveling as it fits almost all doors. Definitely recommend, thanks TikTok for showing this to me." —Anna
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (also available as a pack of two).
39. Peach & Lily's Glass Skin Refining Serum if the "glazed doughnut" skin trend that's taken TikTok by storm is what you're after. It's packed with ingredients like peach extract, niacinamide, and hyaluronic acid and peptide complexes that keep skin looking bright, dewy, smooth, and overall more radiant.
See why one TikToker is a fan here!
Peach & Lily is an Asian woman-owned small business that makes Korean skincare products using natural, toxin-free ingredients.
Promising review: "I saw this serum all over my TikTok for you page, and I knew that I had to try it out, as their serum is so versatile and can cover and help so many kinds of skin concerns that I've been dealing with since my early teens. And now, ever since using it, I honestly swear by it. If you are considering trying the Peach and Lily collection products, I 100% recommend this serum repeatedly. My skin had never looked this great until I first tried it out. And my face looks so glowy, clear, and radiant." —Natalie Y.
Get it from Peach & Lily, Target, or Ulta for $19+ (available in three sizes — not all sizes available at all retailers).
40. A ridiculously handy electric can opener, because let's face it — preparing a meal is so much more enjoyable when you don't have to exert all of your upper body strength just to open some canned tomatoes. Once you try this bb, you'll never go back to hand cranking again.
Check it out on TikTok here — and don't forget the AA batteries!
Promising review: "Life changing!!! I open dog food cans daily and pumpkin cans to mix with the dog food. My old hands couldn’t take it anymore! This little gadget does it ALL! Set it on top of the can, push the button, and walk away!! AND! NO SHARP EDGES!!" —Tammy Richardson
Another promising review: "Such an easy way to open cans. This will reduce my cooking time! I would shy away from cans at grocery stores because I had such a hard time using my mechanical can opener. They were risky and left sharp edges that could hurt anyone. This can opener is a godsend. It comes with an instruction manual that clearly shows how to use it. It's super simple. I got it out of the box, inserted four AA batteries, and it was good to go. This is very user-friendly, no sharp edges, and gives a clean cut. I love love love it. To everyone who is thinking about getting one, it's a little more expensive than the manual ones, but well worth it. It will save your hands!" —liberty
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in 10 colors).
41. Glossier's Stretch Concealer, which provides light, barely there coverage that'll make you swear off of cakey, crayon-like concealers for good. Apply it over pimples, dark circles, and everything in between for a brighter, more even complexion.
Watch one TikToker's review here! Just note that the price has gone up by a few dollars since the video was published.
Promising review: "This concealer makes me look like I got eight hours of sleep when I'm working on four. Where all other concealers have caked in the fine lines now appearing under my eyes — thanks, thirties — this stuff just glides over them and conceals them too. Total magic." —herhere
Get it from Glossier for $20 (available in 12 shades).
42. 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 — check it out on TikTok here!
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 $11.99 (also available in packs of four, six, and 10, and four colors).
43. A rapid egg cooker for anyone who nervously paces back and forth as their eggs are boiling, wondering, "Are they done?" With this, you'll get perfect hard and soft-boiled eggs every time, and the eggs-tra accessories (sorry) are great for poaching, scrambling, and making omelets!
Watch one TikToker get perfectly yellow yolks using this thing here!
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Emma Lord says: "I've owned one of these babies and have faithfully used it every week for upward of two years, and especially love it while working from home — it simplifies breakfast because I know no matter what assortment of groceries I'm working with, there are precooked eggs to add some protein to it (I like mine medium-boiled 🍳). If my dinner is boring or seems like it needs a little extra "oomph" to it, I'll throw in an egg from this too. Some reviews note that the alarm on it is a little loud, but the new models have significantly decreased the volume and sing a little song instead!"
Promising review: "I saw someone on TikTok with this and gasped! Ordered it right away. I had no idea these things existed. Super easy and convenient and the hard-boiled eggs came out perfectly. I’m testing a batch now without punching a hole in the eggs to see how they come out. Because why not make an easy process even easier?!?! LOL." —Gina
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in eight colors, as well as several bundle options).
44. A set of sunscreen reminder stickers, because let's be real: Are you remembering to reapply your sunblock throughout the day? ...Yeah, just what I thought. They'll appear clear when your sunscreen is working, then turn purple as its effectiveness wanes — that way, you know you need to re-up!
See 'em in action on TikTok here!
Promising review: "Just used this product on a recent trip to Florida. I made sure to wash my skin before application and it lasted about two days on my skin without coming off. When out of the sun or behind UV glass, like in a car, the spot turns clear. As soon as you step into the sun it turns purple. If you use a sunblock it starts to become clear or semi clear. After being on the beach and having gone into the water a few times the spot started seeing purple and I applied sunblock again. In a minute the spot was clear again. So this is very effective In alerting me when to reapply." —RGTorque
Get a two-pack (32 patches) from Amazon for $25.99 (also available as a pack of 48).
45. A "Bacon Bin" for storing alllll of that delicious grease left over from your favorite breakfast protein. Instead of pouring it down the drain (and clogging your pipes 😬), simply keep it in this little cup for future cooking purposes. Plus, it comes with a handy strainer so you can easily discard any stray bits of bacon.
See how one TikToker uses it here.
It's made by small biz Talisman Designs, which creates helpful products to make cooking at home a little easier. Store it on your counter or in the fridge, or even freeze it to easily pop out the solidified grease.
Promising review: "This thing is awesome. Big enough to hold plenty of grease without taking up a ton of space. I keep mine in the butter compartment of my fridge next to the butter. I poured the grease right from the pan, still very hot right into it and popped the lid on and put it in the fridge. Next time I needed some grease I scooped some out with a spoon, no muss no fuss. Much better than the glass jar I was using. My only warning is if you get it out when people are visiting keep an eye on it. It's so cute and so good at its job everyone will want one. This is an awesome gift idea. The little box it comes in is so cute with it's little piggie face sticking out. Anyone that cooks with grease will love this." —John Dollard
Get it from Talisman Designs on Amazon for $20.99.
46. A bottle of Fake Halo nail polish, because once you see its dazzling shimmer for yourself, you'll understand why it's TikTok-popular. It'll give your nails some holographic shine with rose gold overtones — in other words, it's absolutely STUNNING and will have everyone asking where you got it.
Watch one TikToker apply several Mooncat shades, including Fake Halo, to their nails here!
Mooncat is a woman-owned, vegan, and cruelty-free small business founded by Michelle Lin, who sees nail polish as a "symbol of rebellion" and considers the brand's *gorgeous* products to be "wearable art."
Promising review: "I received my first one in the mail. It was so easy and smooth going on. Two coats later, AMAZING, vibrant, beautiful color. The way the light dances off of my nails, the sun shining off the polish, the prismatic guess have me mesmerized. Yep, I picked two more colors a week later. My daughter is now hooked as well. We love this polish and will be picking out a few more. This is the ONLY polish that we use now." —Johnine L.
Get it from Mooncat for $15.
47. 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!
Watch as one TikToker demonstrates how to use it here.
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).
48. A large capacity rotating makeup organizer that'll let you proudly display your makeup collection without it looking like a drugstore beauty aisle exploded all over your counter. Plus, it lets you access your products more easily than digging through a messy cabinet.
49. A nonstick microwave pasta cooker to use on 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!
See how one TikToker uses it here!
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.
50. And finally, Stila's Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner, which is a bonafide classic (it's got 7,000+ 5-star reviews on Sephora and 18,000+ on Amazon!). Reviewers say it lives up to its name by providing long-lasting wear so you can rock a bold, dramatic eye that will. not. budge!
Watch one TikToker's tutorial here!
Promising review: "I ventured into the world of eyeliner as a beginner with this product. Needless to say, as a beginner, eyeliner is never easy. But it was this product that got me to being the pro I am today with winged liner! It's so easy to glide on, the applicator has a nice thin tip for a thinner line and a thicker body for a bolder look. The pigmentation is great, doesn't smudge or wear all day. However, if you make a mistake it isn't difficult to remove and touch up. It's also extremely lightweight so it doesn't feel sticky or wet. I have no negative things to say about this; I will never use any other eyeliner." —Caroleene
Another promising review: "I gave birth to our son, and after 12+ hours of labor and an emergency C-section — my eyeliner was still fire. When my doctor walked into the delivery room to tell us that C-section was the best option [and after we agreed and were waiting on the operating room], her next comment was, 'Let’s talk about that eyeliner — you look fantastic!!'" —nattieknobs
Get it from Amazon for $23 (available in three styles and eight colors) or Sephora for $12+ (available in two sizes and six colors).
