1. A pack of dishwasher cleaning tablets so you can at long last eliminate that weird white film inside your dishwasher. This will get it back to smelling fresh and looking sparkling.
Promising review: "After using this product, I am happy to report that my $5 investment saved me over $500. I was ready to replace my dishwasher due to super cloudy glasses, residue, and dishes just not getting clean. Then, I became aware that the water softener was no longer doing its job so I had the rental company replace it. Dishwasher performance improved somewhat. I decided to do two more loads before deciding to purchase a new one. Then I saw a product test review for Affresh. I was ordering some stuff from Amazon anyway so I added that to my order. When it came, I tossed one of the tablets into the bottom of the full machine per the instructions and ran the regular cycle. I did not expect the results I got! The glassware that I thought was permanently etched and ruined came out like new. Same with cutlery. The difference is unbelievable. I will use this faithfully every month, as recommended. I can even put it on my Subscribe & Save order so I will get a new pack every six months. I am amazed!" —Sheila

2. A Trtl neck pillow that's 10 times more comfortable than those cheap, flimsy pillows you buy at the airport minutes before your flight. It's designed to keep your head in a comfortable position the entire time you snooze, which means no painful bobble-heading.
I've used this for the past few years and swear by it! Before this, I always found traditional neck pillows uncomfortable and would end up ditching them halfway through the flight and getting frustrated. The Trtl pillow is adjustable — you wrap the pillow around your neck and secure it with Velcro, and if you find it's too loose, just make it a bit tighter! I've truly never slept better on a plane than with this pillow.
Get it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in three colors).
3. A bottle of Elizavecca Hair Treatment, if you're feeling like your processed, damaged hair has seen better days. This will breathe new life into your locks by making it feel fuller, healthier, and silkier thanks to the ceramides and collagen in the formula.
Check out this reviewer using the treatment to moisturize her hair on TikTok!
This is designed to work on all hair types, with reviewers with 2b to 4c curls mentioning it worked for them! Reviewers have also mentioned it's a great dupe for Olaplex treatments.
Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok, and in between other compares products that were four times the price, I decided to bite the bullet and buy this — let me tell you, best decision ever! I shampooed my hair, then heavily massaged this in, from ends to scalp. The carton says 5-20 minutes... But i ended up leaving it in for two days! And after washing it out, my hair was so shiny, bouncy and CURLY! My curl recovery journey has been long, but this has helped restore so much vibrance and shape to my hair. My mom has been stealing it from my bathroom every couple of days, after having similar results on her hair. Going to need to buy a few more to ward her off." —curlyhead3

4. A set of Shoe Slotz designed to literally *double* the amount of storage space for your shoe collection while still displaying what each pair looks like.
Promising review: "I will spare you the horrific 'before' picture of the complete nightmare that was my closet floor. Just imagine a dusty mess with shoes thrown all over each other in a sad attempt at giving some appearance of order, and you will have a good idea of why buying this shoe organizer was one of the best ideas I've had this year. The floor now looks so neat and tidy I can't believe my eyes every time I open my closet doors." —Veronica, just an average reader, you know?
Get a set of 10 from Amazon for $29.95 (also available in packs of 6, 20, and 40).
5. A garbage disposal cleaner that might just be the most satisfying, mesmerizing cleaning supply on this list. Just shove one of the packets down there, turn on your disposal, and watch in amazement as the cleaner foams up and chomps away all the grunge.
When using, make sure to put the entire packet down the drain aka don't open it! The packet is made out of biodegradable material.
Promising review: "We purchased a house in August 2019 and I've noticed that the garage disposal wasn't smelling great. Kept forgetting to do something about it until recently. I purchased these because they seemed to be a good value. I followed the easy directions and was not prepared for the amount of gunk the blue foam pushed out of both sinks. It was gross! After the blue foam died down, I cleaned my sinks and they smelled much better. Almost wanted to do it again, but I'll wait a bit. Highly recommended!" —Sissy39
Get 8 uses from Amazon for $9.40.
6. A genius car cup holder adapter so you don't have to place your emotional support water bottle in the passenger seat just for it to go rolling everywhere whenever you hit the breaks. This also works great for large sodas too!
Wine and Whiskey Co is a Texas-based Etsy shop selling a wide range of adorable phone cases and T-shirts, plus, of course, genius car accessories.
Promising review: "Love it. Perfectly holds my 40-ounce Hydro Flask. No more rolling around the truck cab. Arrived quickly and works as described." —Jason J. Mease
Get it from Wine and Whiskey Co on Etsy for $12.99.

Promising review: "I bought my fruit on Friday and ordered this immediately because I’m so sick of throwing my fruit away if I don’t eat it in a few days. It’s been a WEEK now and my strawberries, pineapple, and blueberries (all in this one big container) are STILL FRESH! I’m going to start buying more fresh fruit now that I know it won’t be wasted and thrown away in a few days. Highly recommend this product if you’re like me and can’t eat a whole pineapple, strawberries, and other fruit fast!" —Sarah

8. First Aid Beauty's KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub Exfoliant that helps eliminate any rough, bumpy skin in a gentle but effective way. It's especially helpful for anyone dealing from keratosis pilaris (also known as chicken or strawberry skin) who would like to get consistently smoother skin.
Check out this dermatologist reviewing this magical product on TikTok!
I've had keratosis pilaris since I was a teenager (it's especially bad on my thighs), and after trying dozens of products to treat it with no luck, this magical product is the only thing that's truly worked for me. I usually use this once a week for maintenance, but in the winter if I notice a flare-ups and I get have drier, rougher, bumpier skin, I use this twice a week, and any flare-ups disappear within the week. I scrub it over my thighs and then actually let it sit for a few minutes before rinsing it off. I have notorious sensitive skin, and I've never had an issue with this before. It's truly the best product out there for any fellow KP sufferers out there!
Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok and Instagram. I decided to try it and it really works. I used it on my thighs and upper arms. I noticed a difference the first time and even more the second time!!! Fabulous product. Worth every penny." —Lana
Get it from Amazon for $12+ (available in three sizes).

See it in action on TikTok here!
Promising review: "Found this product on TikTok. I don’t think I’ve ever seen value like I do this product! Literally use it on EVERYTHING!! Kids and teens have dirt, grime, and grease on their walls? This will make it look like a new paint job. Baseboards need some love? A pea-size amount of this makes them look brand-new. Need a shoe cleaner? PERFECT for sneakers. I could name a million more uses, but I can ASSURE you this is worth every penny. What’s more? You need such LITTLE of this product; it will last a VERY long time. Thank you, TikTok!!!" —Rachel in CLT
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $19.99.
10. A nail-and-cuticle oil for anyone who finds themselves with dry, damaged nails that tend to peel or break. Apply this daily on your nails, and you'll be amazed at how healthy they look after just a few months.
Promising review: "I had peeling, weak nails for years. I bought this in February. This size bottle lasted a bit more than a month as I religiously applying it two to three times a day. I was really seeing great improvement so I bought another bottle in late March. By May, all the peeling had grown out and my nails were getting stronger every day. I then bought the big 4-oz refill bottle because I never want to run out of it again! Cannot recommend this stuff enough!" —Diana
Get it from Amazon for $8.50.
11. A rubber squeegee brush capable of lifting up so much pet hair you didn't even know was trapped within your carpet. You might think your vacuum is picking up all your pet's hair, but just you WAIT.
Reviewers suggest using short, quick strokes over your carpet or rug to get the most pet hair out. This broom also works great for collecting pet hair on hardwood floors as the rubber bristles work like a magnet to gather all the hair in one big clump.
Promising review: "Didn’t expect much, just bought this on a whim because on of those 'Things from Amazon that actually work' articles you see on social media. Well, I can say that it actually worked perfectly! I thought my carpet was clean because I have a full-size 'pet' vacuum, but I can tell that this broom is the only thing able to get deep enough and pull all that hair and dirt out of the fibers. Even works better on my tile floors than a regular broom. It doesn’t kick up dust particles or leave them behind. Also, I feel you can use this instead of your mop since it also has a squeegee and can be cleaned just by rinsing it. So you get a twofer with this." —Nelio
Get it from Amazon for $12.98.
12. A Bug Bite Thing suction tool to keep stashed in your bag if you know you'll be outside and might get stung. This will literally suck out the insect venom and saliva from your skin, and many reviewers say the itching disappears within seconds!
Some reviewers say it has strong suction power, so use it lightly! Also, this works best if you use it right after getting stung, so keeping it in your purse is ideal!
Promising review: "I am a magnet for bites of all kinds and carry topical and medicines with me at all times — so I figured this would be a good product to see if it really works. I woke up with a bug bite on my arm so I used this little tool (three times per the instructions) — immediately after using, it stopped itching! And less than 24 hours later the bump/bite gone! There is a very faint red mark from using the thing, but a small price to pay IMO. Bottom line: it’s awesome. I’m carrying it with me everywhere!" —Rebecca
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three colors).
13. A bunch of Miracle-Gro "food spikes" for anyone who struggles to keep their plants alive. You're going to be *so* proud of yourself when you notice your plant is actually thriving and not just barely holding on — and all you have to do is stick the spike in the soil!
This fertilizer is formulated specifically for indoor plants, and one spike lasts up to two months! They're especially great for ficus, snake plants, crotons, spider plants, or pothos plants.
Promising review: "LOVE THESE! People will remark on your plants when you start using them. These make a huge difference if you haven't been feeding your plants — super easy to use — just stick them in your plants and forget about it. I put new ones in all my plants about once a month. They're like magic!! I give them away as gifts, they're that great. :)" —Vicki Huntman
Get a set of 24 from Amazon for $2.79.
14. A bedsheet detangler that'll prevent your bedsheets from getting bunched up in the washing machine and dryer. They actually make your sheets dry faster with fewer wrinkles!
These detanglers from Wad-Free aren't recommended for use with bamboo, eucalyptus, or rayon sheets.
Wad-Free is a small business that invented this laundry gadget to prevent sheets from tangling, twisting, and balling up during the laundry process.
Promising review: "I don’t know what kind of magic makes these things work, and I don’t care as long as it keeps my sheets from tangling up in the washer and dryer. This saves me so much time in the laundry room. I have king-sized sheets that always end up in a twisted cocoon of wetness in both my front-load washer and my dryer. Before I always had to stop the dryer and untangle everything — now I just toss them in with no worries. I admit when I first purchased it I expected it wouldn’t work, but was willing to try if there was a slim chance it might. After washing and drying three separate loads of sheets with Wad-Free I purchased two more sets of Wad-Free for my parents. Friends and family are definitely getting this for the holidays come December." —ZombieQT
Get it from Amazon for $18.99.
15. An itty-bitty Theragun Mini to give you sweet relief after a long workout. Use this to massage any achy or sore muscles – it's designed to help you recover faster so you can get back to pumping iron.
BuzzFeed editor Melanie Aman loves her Theragun Mini for post-workout relief:
"Exercising has been a huge boost to my mental health during quarantine, but the DOMS man — the DOMS hurt like hell!! I'm talking hurts to walk, hurts to lower myself and sit, hurts to stand up, hurts to lift things heavier than a stuffed animal, hurts to exist. I learned early on that this little gadget was suuuuuuuuper helpful in reducing my discomfort and loosening my tight, angry muscles. While jackhammering my calves and thighs is not an incredibly fun experience (TBH it hurts especially when I'm massaging already sore muscles), I know the next day I'll wake up with significantly less pain."
Get it from Amazon for $179+ (available in four colors).
16. A flexible cleaning brush that will get into the nooks and crannies of your lint trap. Having a highly functioning dryer is super important — clearing out your lint trap will make your clothes dry faster and prevent buildup lint in the vent pipe, which could lead to house fires if left uncleaned.
Promising review: "Work perfectly for scrubbing the stuck lint out of the insides of your dryer. Everyone who owns a dryer should have these, they're basic safety equipment. Clean that lint, and reduce fire hazards and make the machine more efficient. They're long enough, strong enough, and just flexible enough without being too flexible." —Winged Wolf
Get two from Amazon for $9.95.
17. An anti-blister balm because life is too short to walk around in shoes that rub your ankles raw! This works best if you apply it at the beginning of the day before you start walking because it will create a barrier between your shoe and your skin.
Promising review: "This stuff is amazing! I wore heels that always give me blisters for eight hours, and I didn't get a single one when using this balm. It really worked! I plan on getting it again and again. I always have it in my bag at work just in case. I did find it necessary to reapply if I took my shoes off and put them on again." —Donna
Get it from Amazon for $8.99.
18. Or a stick of Gold Bond Friction Defense that stops chafing caused by sweat in its tracks. Now you can stop worrying about developing that dreaded inner thigh pain whenever you wear shorts or a dress and instead get back to living your life.
I've used it for about 12 years now and it's the only thing that I can trust to prevent that dreaded chafing after a sweaty day of walking around. It glides on perfectly, it's unscented, and it doesn't melt away when you start to sweat. If it's a particularly hot day out, it can start to fade after a few hours, so just make sure to bring it with you to reapply. In addition to preventing chafing between my thighs, I've also applied it on my arms where my sports bra rubs against them when I run and it works like a charm!
Promising review: "I just used it for five days in 90 degree plus weather at Bonnaroo music festival in the middle of Tennessee on a farm in June with 100,000 people walking several miles, dancing, and sweating every day. I am happy to report that this product is a lifesaver. My thighs didn't chafe once, and I have big ones! I had to reapply once during the day. I strongly recommend buying this if you have large thighs and need relief from chafing. I couldn't wear dresses or skirts in the heat if I was walking anywhere, and now I live in them because of this stuff! Buy it! It works!" —Carwizzle
Get it from Amazon for $6.
19. A jewelry cleaning pen formulated to restore your rings to their original glory. Fair warning: you might get temporarily blinded when you step outside and the sun hits your ridiculously shiny wedding ring. It's a risk we're willing to take.
Promising review: "If I could give this 10 stars I would! I'm a fanatic when it comes to keeping my jewelry clean, especially my wedding set. I tried this product on my diamonds, Swarovski crystals, and Brighton jewelry, and the results are nothing less than amazing! This restored one of my Swarovski rings that I had not worn in years due to the cloudy color to a sparkling brilliance just like the first day I bought it! I cannot recommend this product enough! I just ordered additional wands so I don't run out! Home run Amazon!" —Kristina B.

20. A dog hair remover you can run across your clothing, furniture, or bedding to easily pick up all that loose pet hair. Once you realize how well this works, you might end up buying a couple to leave in every room of your house!
With more than 82,000 5-star ratings, the ChomChom pet hair remover is seriously beloved by pet owners. Just use quick, firm strokes over a surface to remove the hair – no batteries or power source required! And it doesn't use sticky, single-use paper like other lint removers do; when you're done, just empty out the hair and dust receptacle into the trash can.
Promising review: "Where has this been all my crazy cat-loving life? Sticky rollers work fine for clothes but this is the only product that has ever COMPLETELY removed all the cat hair from my bed. I have a long-haired 20-lb. tabby and if you run your hands up his back a few times and fling the hair everywhere, it looks like it's snowing – he never stops shedding no matter what I do. After using the ChomChom, I can put on a black dress and roll around on my bed and not get a single hair on me. It's absolutely amazing. Everyone is getting one for Christmas, even if they don't have a pet. I don't care, it's THAT good." —Dahlia
Get it from Amazon for $24.95.
21. Grandma's Secret to remove any stains on your furniture — this stuff is so good at getting out set-in stains from oil, grease, ink, grass, blood, even pen stains on a white leather couch, as you can see below!
Promising review: "Absolutely the best spot remover in the world! It will remove just about everything from your fabric! I even used it for a very old doily that was so discolored and stained that I almost threw them away. All the old stains and knitted portion was over 15 years since it had never been washed. It is bright and clean & white now. It used to look brown. It was handmade by my dear departed Aunt made 35+ years ago! It's ready for framing now!" —Dancing Hawaiian
Get a set of two from Amazon for $9.48.
22. A tiny cleaning ball designed with a sticky inner sphere that will pick up all those loose crumbs that somehow always appear at the bottom of your purse.
Once it loses its stickiness, just wash it off with water, and it'll be good to go again!
Promising review: "This little ball is genius!! Rolls around in my purse; which I live out of. It picks up a lot lint, debris or even crumbs. Easy to find with the bright pink. Just remove and wash and it’s ready to go again. The price was great and something I can use for years. If you live out of your purse this a must have!!" — dj3biggs
Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in pink and black).
23. A set of satin pillowcases to protect your hair from tangling and matting. The ultra-soft fabric doesn't absorb moisture from your skin, so you'll also wake up to a super-hydrated complexion.

Get a set of two from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in 23 colors and four sizes).
24. Supergoop's Glow Screen that protects your face from harmful rays but still gives you a subtly sun-kissed glow thanks to the very subtle shimmer in the formula. You can wear this on its own to get that beautiful radiance, or it's also light enough to be worn underneath foundation!
Heads up: this is slightly tinted and only comes in one shade, so it might not work for anyone who is very pale or people with darker skin. For other options from Supergoop, you could try out a tint-free glow oil with SPF you can put all over your body or this CC sunscreen cream that comes in 15 shades.
I use this whenever I want that beautiful glow without having to deal with highlighter or any other makeup. It's extremely lightweight on your face, so I will often use it as a primer, and the formula works with my foundation to give me a glow that somehow shines through the makeup. It's magic! We all know we have to wear sunscreen every day, so might as well look like we're glowing while doing it!
Get it from Sephora for $20+ (available in three sizes).
25. A cloud-shaped magnetic key holder if the question "Where are my keys?!" is asked at least once a day in your household. Just place this by your front door so you can grab and go!
Check it out in action on TikTok here!
Promising review: "So, yes, TikTok made me buy this, but so far I really like it. It's obviously very adorable and offers a charming spot to keep my keys that works with my entryway. I'm really surprised by how strong the hold is for such a small object — I carry my car fob and a few keys and so far it's holding strong. I hung it with command strips to avoid any potential damage to the wall and I will say make sure it's level as the hold is not so good on an angle (but that was from the original in-hand testing). Definitely recommend and for the price, I'm very tempted to get one for my at-work office." —D. Carter
Get it from Amazon for $7.98.
26. A compression foot sleeve to help give you some sweet relief from heel and arch pain. Reviewers say the tight compression does wonders for any foot pain they feel, and it's especially helpful if you're traveling and know you'll be on your feet all day.
Promising review: "I went on my first walk in years without pain the second day of trying these socks! I had almost given up trying to relieve the intense burning/soreness due to my plantar fasciitis, but I decided to try one last product. These socks have already changed my life and have allowed me to start working out again! Highly recommend." —Emily
Get a pair from Amazon for $11.95+ (available in four sizes and nine colors).
27. A productivity time management tool if your to-do list is seriously overwhelming you and you need some help blocking off dedicated time to focus and get your task done.
Watch a reviewer use this during a WFH day on TikTok!
This is a great tool to help you practice the Pomodoro technique, which is a time management tool. Basically, you work in 25-minute chunks of time and then break for five minutes. After four rounds of this, you take a longer break for 15-20 minutes. Lots of people swear by this for improved productivity!
Promising review: "This visual timer has been a blessing for setting time boundaries for my toddler AND myself! I. Love. This. Saw a suggestion for it on Tiktok, and knew I needed it for myself and my child. It's so easy to set and easy to see. I use it to set boundaries for my three-year-old, like 20 minutes to bedtime, 15 minutes until we leave, 20 minutes left of TV time, etc. He loves setting the timer, can tell how many minutes he has left, and it's ended almost all the fights for transitions.
And I've started using it for myself, for the suggestion I saw on TikTok, to set a timer for the things I disliked doing, or that I've been unable to devote focused time to. With this timer I'm taking little bites out of issues that plague me, and I'm allowing myself to accept that if the 15 minutes I put into it today isn't enough, it's OK because I have 15 minutes tomorrow. And actually SEEING that big blue 15 minutes on the clock go down from across the room is PRICELESS! It makes time feel less weighty." —JDillon
Get it from Amazon for $18.99 (available in eight colors).
28. An over-the-sink dish drying rack to save precious counter space. Plus: it can be rolled up when it's not in use so you can utilize all of your sink.
See it in action on TikTok here!
Promising review: "I bought this because I saw it on TikTok and I’m so glad I did! I hate having things on my counters that don’t belong. I have a dishwasher but I have some things (like most everyone) that aren’t dishwasher safe. I love that I can just roll this out and dry my dishes over the sink. The fact that air is able to get to all sides allows dishes like cups and bowls to actually get dry. Prior to this I was using a drying mat next to my sink, but I was always having to towel dry items that had been sitting out “drying” for hours. Even my husband is impressed. He has told me multiple times it was such a good buy!" —Sheri
Get it from Amazon for $9.17+ (available in seven sizes).
29. A heat/cold wrap with a brilliant design that covers the entirety of your neck and shoulders at the same time so you don't have to constantly readjust it as it slides down.
BioMed DB Design is a Washington-based small business established in 2010 that specializes in ergonomically-designed hot and cold therapy packs.
For a half-hour of heat, you can microwave it for two minutes; for cold therapy, you can leave it in the freezer.
Promising review: "The neck and shoulder heater came on time. I love the style of it with the upright collar. Stays warm for a half hour and the main reason I bought it was because it wasn't scented...had a hard time finding a neck warmer that wasn't aromatherapy. Very well made. I toss it in the microwave, throw it over my shoulders and sit in my recliner and heat up my neck then do some neck stretches as warm muscles are more flexible. Has been a godsend for my stiff-tight neck muscles, keep up the good work!!!" —Kathy
Get it from BioMed DB Design on Etsy for $35.99.
30. And a neck and shoulder relaxer if you often find yourself at the end of the day with a stiff, uncomfortable neck and shoulders that just can't relax. Reviewers say this helps give them relief from pain that comes from side sleeping, prolonged computer use, and migraines.
(Psst — you should consult with your doctor before trying anything new involving your neck/back area to make sure it's safe for you!)
For this, instead of like a regular pillow, you're supposed to lay on this in ten-minute intervals; the seller suggests working your way up to it by starting yourself off at five minutes at a time, with a one to three day adjustment period before regular use.
Promising review: "I have TMJ, neck and back issues. This brought relief within days. I use it 3 times a day for 10 minutes each using the timer on my iPhone. I have never felt such pain relief before. It's important to use it faithfully because I can feel some stiffness. It feels so great. I am recommending it to all my friends and family. Whoever invented this is a genius!" —DD Brown
Get it from Amazon for $28.99 (available in five colors).
31. A stainless steel cleaner for getting rid of all those pesky handprints on your oven or fridge. It won't leave behind any streaks, and they'll look so clean, people will think you got brand-new appliances! Don't worry — your secret's safe with us.
Check it out in action on TikTok here!
The plant-based, lavender-scented cleaner comes with a microfiber cloth for you to use on your appliances, and reviewers say you only have to use a little bit of the cleaner to clean your entire fridge or oven, which means one bottle will last you a really long time.
Promising review: "The stainless-steel appliances in our rental were so stained and smudged. Regular cleaners didn't work. I saw this product recommended on TikTok, and immediately looked it up on Amazon. The reviews were good and price was right, but what won me over was the plant-based ingredient list and lavender scent. I used the product the day it arrived in the mail. Worked like a charm! Easy-to-use spray, microfiber cloth included. So now my stainless-steel appliances look shiny and my kitchen smells amazing! Highly recommend." —diana
Get it from Amazon for $16.95.
32. A facial ice roller you can keep in the freezer and whip out to roll on your neck and forehead to give you sweet relief from dreaded migraines. It also reduces puffiness on your face when you wake up in the morning.
Promising review: "I was skeptical about this product. I wasn't sure how it was much different than rolling any other frozen thing on your body. I'm beyond pleasantly surprised. I've used it for sinus pain, migraines, swollen neck glands, under-eye circles/bags, inflamed acne, TMJ pain, etc. Not to mention, when I used it on my face, it leaves my skin feeling tight and wakes me up in the mornings. It also stays cold for forever but never sweats or leaves water behind. It's like magic. I also bought one for my mom who suffers from nerve damage in her arms and legs. I think it'll really help when she has bad pain days." —Jessica McRee
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in nine colors).
33. A fruit fly trapper — now you can stop spending half of your day trying to track down and kill those annoying little insects that are living rent-free in your house.
Each trap lasts up to 45 days. Just place the traps where you've spotted fruit flies before and empty half of the lure bottle into the trap.
Promising review: "Our home was infested with fruit flies. As a household of minimal fresh produce and a mostly nitrate rich menu, we were confused and horrified when these tiny, evil bastards took over our house. These apple traps are LEGIT. Within an hour or less they had captured a good amount of flies. I just bought more." —MotherofChaos
Get two traps from Amazon for $5.88.
34. An adjustable cap with a magnetic closure so you don't have to readjust your ponytail or bun to fit in that tiny hole at the bottom of most caps. Go ahead and rock that high pony while keeping the sun out of your face during hot outdoor runs or walks.
Ponyback is a small biz from Stacey Keller. When she couldn't find a hat that worked well with all hairstyles, she set out to make her own.
Promising review: "I can't believe how perfect this hat is — I wear my long, curly hair up 90% of the time, and this works for ponytails, messy buns, braids, or any combo. It's SO comfy I don't even realize I am wearing it until my kids say to me, 'No hats at the table,' haha. This hat will be my summer lifesaver." —Nancy K.

35. A bottle of Drop It, which naturally reduces wine sulfates and tannins so you're less likely to wake up with a headache in the morning. All you have to do is add a few drops to your glass, swirl it around for about 20 seconds, and then you can sip away without the fear of a hangover!
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.
Promising review: "I became really sensitive to wine in my thirties and through a lot of trial and painful error, I thought I might have to give up on wine altogether. Then I found out about the preservatives being a possible cause and decided to give this product a shot. So glad I did!! I'm still pretty sensitive to reds but this helps tremendously so that I can have a glass with dinner without a headache immediately settling in. Whites cause me no problem what so ever! I love that it takes so little product to make a difference to a whole bottle. Just a few drops, a few minutes and we are good to go." —CastawayIrons

36. A pair of blue-light-blocking glasses for anyone who stares at a screen all day and ends up with tired eyes by nighttime. These lenses help filter out the blue light that's causing your eyes to strain and get worn out.
Promising review: "I bought these glasses because doing a lot of school work on my computer or even staring at my phone for too long will kill my eyes. I’m talking serious eye pain after about two continuous hours of staring at a screen, and I can be on my computer for 8+ hours at a time. After hearing all the rave about these glasses I decided to buy some, and they seriously make all the difference. I did a lot of digging to make sure I bought glasses that work and these really did. I’ve been working on a huge project recently that keeps me up from noon to sometimes three in the morning, and I had no eye pain the whole time, when normally it would take all of two hours and I would have to quit because my eyes would hurt so bad. These glasses are a serious life-, pain-, and productivity-saver. I only wish I would have found them five years ago!" —D

37. A Roll Keeper organizer if you have a large T-shirt collection but limited storage space. With this, you'll be able to see all of your T-shirts at once, which makes getting ready in the morning so much easier.
The Roll Keeper is a woman-owned small business from Kelso, Washington. Take a peek at this helpful video that shows you how to load and unload the Roll Keeper!
Check out this promising review from BuzzFeed writer Mallory Mower who owns (and loves!) the Roll Keeper: "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!"

38. A Waterpik water flosser because we all know we should be flossing every day, but who actually wants to? This almost turns flossing into a game — you'll be amazed at how many food particles you'll blast off using this thing!
This multipurpose device includes different tips: three classic heads, one orthodontic, one plaque seeker for implants and other dental work, one Pik Pocket for periodontal pockets, and one toothbrush tip to manually brush as you water floss.
Promising review: "Extremely quiet and well worth the money. I've been having problems with my gums bleeding and my teeth are too crowded and tight to comfortably floss, so I decided to go with a water jet plaque cleaning system. I decided on this one because it looks sleek (I got it in black), had good reviews and had all the accessories...so I took a shot. The last time I used one of these things I remember it sounding like a noisy air compressor, but this one is really a low ambient rumble at best. The slide switch on the handle takes almost zero effort to operate (this is a more important thing than you might realize, as you use this feature a few times during each of your cleanings). I don't know how this stacks up against the cheaper models, but I can tell you that this water jet system is good stuff. I use warm water and mouth wash in the hopper and after only a few days my gums are not bleeding anymore. My mouth feels similar to how it does after I leave the dental hygienist after every use ... love it. If you get this one I recommend using the toothbrush attachment because it massages the gums as it passes and controls the water splatter so is therefore less messy." —CAM

39. An oscillating tower fan so you don't have to suffer through the summer heat and sweat when you're literally just sitting on your couch! Apartment dwellers with no central air: this powerful fan's life-changing.
This super-quiet fan has six speeds, three modes (normal, natural, and sleep) and an additional auto mode. It also comes with a remote.
Promising review: "After moving into a traditional two story home from a rancher we wanted fans in our bedrooms to help keep them cool. I have struggled finding a ceiling fan I liked for our master bedroom so finally decided to pick up this tower fan and give it a try. I am so impressed with how quiet it is and how much power it puts out. Having a remote is a major selling point with being in our bedroom. It’s slim and able to be tucked away into the corner out of sight when not in use, but it’s not even an eye sore that I mind having out to be seen. It was easy to assemble in a matter of just two minutes without any help needed. I’m already looking into purchasing a second one for my large family room as it has plenty of power to accommodate the space. The remote is easy to use and I am thrilled with this purchase!" —Jami Wil

40. A "Bacon Bin," which is basically a super-smart way to dispose of your hot grease (never pour it down the drain! Just don't do it!). Once the grease hardens in the bin, you can just scoop it out to dispose of it or reuse it for other recipes.
Promising review: "When I saw this item, I ordered two. One for my daughter (who loves anything piggy) and one for myself. Besides being cute it's everything that it says in the description. Works great for bacon fat. The silicone surprised me because after cooking bacon, there is no waiting for the grease to cool down. And reusing the grease is very easy." —Judith
Get it from The Grommet for $15.
41. A washable sponge if you're sick and tired of getting grossed out by your sponge that always smells like last night's dinner. Whenever this sponge starts to get a little funky, simply throw it in the washing machine or dishwasher, and then it'll be good as new!
Make sure to air-dry this, and if you're washing it in the dishwasher, don't place it near knives as they can puncture the sponge.
Marley's Monsters is an eco-friendly small business in Eugene, Oregon. Owner Sarah Dooley has products ranging from reusable "paper" towels to coffee filters to bowl covers, as well as bath and baby products.
Promising review: "I LOVE this sponge. I love that it's reusable and it does a better job of cleaning pots and pans than a disposable sponge." —Kristina Babinski

42. A genius humidifier tank cleaner to keep your humidifier free of gross buildup so you don't have to wash it as often. Not only does this cute little guy work hard to keep all that dirt and grime away, it's also so fun to watch it swim around the tank!
43. A luxurious pillow with memory foam filling that you can adjust to fit your sleeping needs. Are you a stomach sleeper? Go ahead and take out some of the filling to get the most comfortable height.
Here's what my colleague Taylor Steele had to say about this incredible pillow: "I have had two of these pillows for a few months, and I sleep more comfortably now than I ever have! The memory foam filler (which you can remove or add at your own comfort and discretion) truly makes me feel like I'm laying on the most stable yet airy clouds. They even come with soft, washable covers that only add to the luxe plushiness of my new sleeping experience." —Taylor Steele

44. A door draft stopper to keep any chilly air from getting into your room and making you cold. It'll also help your home's heating system work more efficiently, which saves you money in the long run.
Promising review: "This is exactly what I was looking for! I have a sizable gap under my back door, and these do the job to keep hot and cold air out and in depending on the season. It's easy to apply, sticks very well, and is easy to cut to length. I used scissors. This is exactly what I was looking for. I have a metal door so a typical weather strip was not an option. This just sticks to the door; it can’t be any easier. Highly recommend." —Sean M Flanagan

45. These miniature spatulas that scoop out every last drop of that expensive eye cream or your favorite mustard. It works especially great for those awkwardly shaped bottles that trap product in all their corners.
The set comes with one spatula with a 6-inch handle, and another with a 12-inch handle.
Promising review: "So worth it! I'm so happy with it. You will definitely save money using this. I think about how much I could have saved if this was invented 30 years ago. I mostly use it for small makeup jars. I tested out the longer one on a 18-ounce lotion and it worked fine. Some reviews complain about not being able to get every curve and corner of their container...oh please...You get so much more than you would without it." —Liz
