1. An anti-blister balm because summertime is too precious to spend it walking 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.
Check out a TikTok of the anti-blister balm in action!
Promising reviews: "Saw this product on a TikTok review and thought to give it a go. I definitely say it causes new shoes to be less painful however if you apply a lot it can be a little transferable on shoes. Overall though I think this product is definitely worth it and it does make a difference with new shoe wear!" —Mich Elle
"This is a MUST if you're breaking in new flats. Helps prevent blisters. So easy and simple, yet effective." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $9.
2. Or a stick of Gold Bond Friction Defense that stops chafing caused by sweat in its tracks. Now you can finally wear shorts or dresses without worrying about the inevitable inner thigh chafing (and the pain that accompanies it).
Heads up: they recently changed the packaging, but it's still the same great product!
I've used it since I was in high school 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 saw this product on TikTok and ordered it immediately. It did not disappoint! I will always keep this product in my home. There is absolutely no scent, it glides on smoothly and stays on after a dip in the pool." —Amy Luna
Get it from Amazon for $6.26.
3. An enzyme-based laundry stain remover if you get a pesky stain on your favorite summer T-shirt and are devastated that it's now ruined. Never fear — this hypoallergenic cleaner will get that stain right out in just one wash.
Check out a TikTok of the laundry spray in action.
Puracy is a Texas-based, family-owned small business specializing in plant-based, chemical-free, hypoallergenic home products, with a donation made to local families in need with a portion of every purchase.
Psst — this spray also does a number on all those other miscellaneous stains in your life, like wine, coffee, soy sauce, makeup, and period blood! I recently bought this to test it for myself, and can attest to how well it works to get period blood out even after you've tried something else. I stained a pair of beloved bright-blue bike shorts in my sleep and tried to get it out with soap and water, but the stain was still there when it came out of the wash. I treated it with this, stuck it back in the wash, and BOOM, it's like it never happened (I panicked before I could get a before and after, please forgive me, laundry gods).
Promising review: "For whatever reason, I am ALWAYS spilling things on my shirts and I cook every night (sometimes I remember the apron, sometimes I don't). My clothes are a mess by the end of the day. I'm not proud of it, but there it is. I have tried EVERYTHING there is to remove stains and this is the absolute BEST thing out there. (There is simply not a major stain remover that I have not tried.) The only thing close is a long pre-soak (I mean like six hours) in Oxyclean. With Puracy, you get the best result by doing it well in advance, but for me that is another plus because I would far rather spray them when I put them in the hamper than do it all at once just before I do the laundry. It seems to get everything out and I've never had any trouble with damaged fabric. I don't really review very much, but this is seriously outstanding." —NYC Buyer
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
4. A splurge-worthy bottle of EltaMD UV Clear Face Sunscreen that's so lightweight, you'll forget you're even wearing sunscreen at all! Not only will it protect you from the sun, it can also help calm rosacea, hyperpigmentation, and acne-prone skin!
Promising review: "TikTok made me buy it. Recommended by at least three TikTok doctors (real ones, I promise) and was pleasantly surprised. Not greasy, no white cast, and doesn’t irritate my oily skin." —Victoria Cabiao
"Because I have hated just about every facial sunscreen (especially you, Supergoop, lol) I’ve ever tried, the price for this product is honestly worth it. Doesn’t feel greasy, oily, or silicone-y. Doesn’t leave a white cast. Doesn’t have a strong odor. It really just feels like I’m putting another layer of moisturizer on. If I go out with only this SPF with no makeup, my skin looks nice, dewy, and moisturized, but never oily or greasy. Most importantly, this keeps my rosacea in check!" —Christian Chetwood
Get it from Amazon for $41.
5. A handy little tool, aka the Bug Bite Thing, designed to help with those itchy bug bites because it can suck out insect venom and saliva from your skin. Reviewers say the itching disappears within seconds and that it works best right after being bit.
This works on mosquitoes, bees, wasps, biting flies, sea lice, and more (although TBH, if this list of bugs gets any longer I may just stay indoors forever!!).
Promising review: "I bought this because I saw it on TikTok, and have been having issues with mosquito bites. Used it a few times 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 $9.95+ (available in seven colors and in packs of two or three).
6. A bottle of Color Wow Dream Coat Supernatural Spray you can spritz on your hair before blow-drying it to help give you the smoothest, most frizz-free hair of your life, even in dreadful summer humidity!
Check out a TikTok of the Color Wow Dream Coat Supernatural Spray in action.
Promising review: "I rarely — I don't think ever — rave about a hair product, but this is an exception. I got it to smooth out the frizzies in my hair and it performed above and beyond my expectations. I'm not a fan of the price, but I'll keep buying it because it's worth it. I highly recommend this product!" —CheckFirstWithAmazon
Get it from Amazon for $28.
7. A set of sunscreen reminder stickers that will actually change color and turn dark whenever your sunscreen wears off and the sticker gets exposed to a higher UV. Essentially, it's a visual reminder to reapply that sunscreen so you don't get burnt!
Check out a TikTok of the sunscreen stickers in action.
Promising review: "After yet another bad sunburn even though I'm trying VERY HARD to keep sunscreen on, I bought these. First use was at Disneyland on a 90-degree zero clouds day. This helped so much! I kept an eye (as did my friends) on the dot so we all knew when to reapply sunscreen and not one of us got burned. I also used these on a weeklong hiking adventure in Utah where it was also in the 90s with an extreme UV index. None of us got burned, so all in all this is one of the best inventions!" —Catherine Shock
Get a 16-count from Amazon for $15.99.
8. A facial ice roller gloriously designed to help you cool off on the stickiest of days. Leave it in your freezer, and then roll it over your face and body for an instant cooling effect. It feels especially fantastic if you happen to have a sunburn!
Promising reviews: "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
"Another TikTok find. I love this product. Helps with redness and inflammation. I used it after I put serums on my face, then after I put my eye cream and face lotion on. Has helped with inflammation of pimples and decrease pore visibility!" —Makenzie
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in 12 colors).
9. An at-home slushy-making cup so you can whip up a cold, refreshing summer treat at a moment's notice. Just keep the cup in the freezer, and all you have to do is pour in your cold drink (anything from soda to juices) and crush the sides until a slush begins to form.
Check out a TikTok of the Slushy Maker Cup in action — it even comes with a spill-proof lid so it won't leak while you're crushing the cup!
Promising review: "When it got here I cleaned it and put it in the freezer. I took it out a day later and filled it with Diet Coke just to see what it does. Squeeze it a few times and it's 100% a slushy. I am shocked and thrilled. Worth the money. It has some type of ribbing inside that freezes. If you enjoy a cold beverage, get it quick." —GEORGE
Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available in ten colors and two-packs).
10. Lume's Whole Body Deodorant, which is an invisible cream you can apply pretty much anywhere on your body to help block odors for up to 72 hours. We're talking on your feet, underarms, in-between thighs...basically anywhere you sweat a LOT and can get a lil' stinky during the summertime.
Psst — you should definitely "patch test" this on a small area of skin before putting it on to make sure you don't have any kind of reaction!
Promising review: "I was very skeptical about the Lume product. I have seen the TikTok videos advertising it, and then I started seeing it being advertised on TV. I bought it mainly for my feet because I have a serious problem with foot odor no matter what kind of shoe or sandal I wear. So, I decided if this stuff works on my feet, then it will work on practically anyone else. Oh, my goodness!!!!! It does really work! I have not had a single foot odor problem now in nearly two weeks since I began using it." —Julie Murray
Get it from Amazon for $20.44+ (available in eight scents, including unscented).
11. An insect catcher you can place in your plant or fruit bowl to trap those pesky lil bugs that always pop up more during summertime. These can work indoors or outdoors and can trap fruit flies, gnats, and mosquitoes.
Reviewers note that these work best if you put them somewhere the flies are already attracted to — these will definitely trap them, but they won't attract them on their own.
Promising review: "A must for your plants. Great for all those fungus gnats near my plants! Saw this shown on a TikTok used in a vivarium enclosure and just had to try it. Works great and is very attractive looking." —Mac
Get a pack of 18 from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in 14 styles and packs).
12. The internet-famous Revlon oil-absorbing volcanic face roller anyone with skin that tends to get oily during the summer will appreciate. Just roll this across any shiny parts of your face, and watch in amazement as all the oil disappears!
Promising review: "First off, if you have extremely oily skin, this. is. it. I was so tired of getting blotting powder/wipes. It felt wasteful and always left residue on my face. I saw this on TikTok and NEEDED it. It was backordered but then I got an email saying it was in stock and I was SO excited. Not only is it affordable, but it's washable, which helps you save money and be less wasteful." —Kelsey B.
Get it from Amazon for $13.38.
13. A handheld mini fan you'll want to whip out the second you feel the first drop of sweat descend down your face.
See a TikTok of the handheld mini fan in action.
Promising review: "Bought this after seeing it on TikTok, and wow. Where has this been all my life? A portable charger (extra, because I already have one), a fan with two settings (this kept me cool during my brother’s outdoor college graduation), and a flashlight (perfect for finding my phone when I drop it in my car). It’s a great little thing that adds that extra EXTRA-ness to your life." —Angie
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in five colors).
14. A portable Chill-O-Matic Instant Beverage Cooler that can take a room-temperature 12-ounce can of soda, beer, or seltzer and transform it into an ice-cold drink in just one minute!
Chill-O-Matic is a small business that specializes in beverage accessories.
Check out a TikTok of the Chill-O-Matic in action.
Promising review: "I was so afraid of wasting money. But I didn’t. I love my sodas cold. But sometimes there’s not a cold one available, and waiting 30-40 min for one to get cold in the freezer is not always ideal. This will get your room temp can to fridge cold in 90 seconds. I let it run double that to get almost freezer cold. I wish it had a power cord. But I do appreciate the portability that the batteries provide. I can’t wait to try it out on vacation, as access to cold sodas isn’t always available. All you need is literally a little bit of ice." —G. Massey
Get it from Amazon for $29.99.
15. Brazilian Bum Bum Cream formulated with caffeine, guarana extract, and coconut oil, which work together to help tighten and smooth the skin on your derrière, or really anywhere you choose to apply it! You'll love how tropical it smells, too!
Promising review: "Like so many, I was brainwashed by TikTok into buying this rather expensive lotion...then I bought one for my mom and one for my sister and five more for myself as they became harder to find. My favorite thing about it is the smell. Lightly tropical/coconutty but nothing overwhelming. Every time I wear it people say, 'What are you WEARING?' like I have some amazing perfume on. Besides that, it really is a great moisturizer. I’m not usually a sucker for marketing but this was so worth it." —Kristen
Get it from Amazon for $22+ (available in three sizes).
16. A makeup setting spray for anyone who hates when their makeup starts melting down their face the second they walk outside in summer. This magic potion absorbs oil and sweat on the skin's surface and keeps your makeup looking fresh for up to 16 hours!
Promising review: "Love this spray. Like that it's small and portable. It does set your makeup matte, which I love. Keeps my makeup in place all day. I use it pretty much daily when it's summer. It is great for when you travel to anywhere hot and humid and don't want your makeup to slide off." —Tina J.
"I had seen this on TikTok and thought it was a waste of money, until I tried it, and it works. It locks in your makeup. You just have to make sure your makeup is perfect and then spray your face." —Mary
Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in two sizes).
17. A Yonanas fruit soft serve maker — why not stock up on yummy seasonal fruit and make delicious soft serve out of it?! You'll get creamy, tasty ice cream made with your favorite fruit flavors — and yes, all you need is frozen fruit to make it!
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 $39.98+ (available in five colors).
18. A "Slotdog" hot dog-slicing tool that ingeniously creates criss-cross indentations into your hot dog, which will make it perfectly crispy. Congrats — you're about to be the most popular person on the block when you use this at your next summer barbecue.
19. Supergoop's Shimmershade Illuminating Cream Eyeshadow — it delivers a beautifully subtle shimmer to your eyelids while also protecting them from the sun with SPF 30. Yes, even your eyelids need sun protection!
Check out a TikTok of the Shimmershade Illuminating Cream Eyeshadow in action.
Promising review: "Effortlessly gorg and perfect for summer!! The texture/pigment of this shadow makes my eyes glow and ever so faintly shimmer. Need all colors!!" —katesykes
"I work outside so I love the idea of an eyeshadow with sunscreen. It is a gorgeous shade with a buildable pigment. After I do my eyes I pat the extra on my nose, cheekbones, and Cupid’s bow for a subtle glow." —mermaddie
Get it from Sephora for $24 (available in four shades).
20. An Icebreaker that'll make ice cubes faster than your average ice tray, which is gonna be a lifesaver on those hot summer days. But wait, we haven't gotten to the best part — you can pour your ice out without ever having to touch the cubes!
Icebreaker is a Texas-based small business estabished in 2020 by Danish engineer Kim Jensen.
Promising review: "TikTok made me do it and I’m so glad I did. My daughter and I make cold brew each morning and used to fight over the ice cubes, not anymore! She has her container and I have mine. No more freezer smell and best of all no trying to twist a hard plastic container to get every single ice cube out of a tray. If I could give you a gazillion stars, I would, thank you." —tthomas1031
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in four styles).
21. A satin-lined Hairbrella you'll want to store in your purse or tote bag in case of any random rain showers this summer. The satin-lined cap will keep your hair frizz-free even if it's rainy or humid outside, and the visor will block any precipitation out of your face.
Hairbrella is a Black-owned small business established in 2016 that specializes in hats combining fashion and function to protect against all types of weather.
Check out a TikTok of the Hairbrella in action.
Promising review: "I never carry an umbrella cause they’re too bulky, so when I saw the Hairbrella I was so excited. It keeps my hair dry and my curls nicely quaffed, rather than me looking like I stuck my fingers I a light socket. I’m telling everyone I know about it, it’s an amazing alternative to those wide-brimmed hats or a briefcase LOL! Truly it’s never going to leave my side from now on! I definitely recommend it." —Gina C.
Get it from Hairbrella for $29.99+ or Amazon for $39.99+ (available in six styles).
22. First Aid Beauty's KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub Exfoliant that helps eliminate any rough, bumpy skin that can often get worse in the summer 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.
First Aid Beauty is a US-based small business that specializes in clean, fragrance-free, cruelty-free personal care products.
Promising review: "I saw a dermatologist recommend this on TikTok and I figured I’d give it a try. I have had red bumps on the back of my arms for as long as I can remember and have tried multiple things, so I didn’t have very high expectations. After one use, I could already see a difference! It says to use 1–2 times a week but I use it usually every other day, and I use Cerave rough and bumpy lotion after and now my red bumps are almost nonexistent. This product has truly been life changing and I would recommend to anyone struggling with red bumps! 10/10!" —Sydney
Get it from Amazon for $12+ (available in three sizes).
23. A cold brew coffee maker because hot temperatures means you want iced coffee, thank you very much! Thankfully with this gadget, you can have high-quality iced coffee waiting in your fridge when you wake up in the morning, bleary eyed and in need of caffeine ASAP.
Promising review: "I LOVE this product so much! I drink iced coffee on the daily but the system I had just wasn't cutting it for me. I didn't know how to brew cold coffee at home (all we have is a Keurig, and there's no cold brew option) so I would go buy iced coffee from Dunkin' every morning. Now don't get me wrong, i love my Dunkin', but I wanted to find a way to be able to make that same iced coffee at HOME, and I think my wallet and gas tank wanted me to figure that out too. I found out about this product through TikTok and it is a GAME CHANGER. All you have to do is put coffee grounds in the filter, fill up the main compartment 3/4 full with water (I use water from my fridge), screw the filter into the lid and screw the lid shut, shake it a little to put the coffee grounds to work, and let it do its magic for 12–24 hours! This is probably the best investment I've ever made. You need this!!" —Carmen E.
Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in two sizes).
24. A watermelon cutter if you always avoid buying watermelon at the supermarket because of how annoying it is to cut! This handy tool gives you chunks of the delicious summer treat by just running across the surface of the fruit — in fact, reviewers have said you can cut up an entire watermelon in less than five minutes!
Check out a TikTok of the watermelon cutter in action.
Promising review: "This tool is so handy!! I hate cutting watermelon, and this is so fast and easy to use and easy to wash. I cut a watermelon in less than five minutes. It cuts yellow watermelon too!!! The included baller is great for the small left over, hard to reach places." —Andrea Draine
Get it from Amazon for $12.37.
25. A "Kooler Kube" ice extender that can magically keep the ice in your cooler solid and super cold for DAYS! Make sure you throw one of these in your cooler at the beginning of your summer party to keep everything nice and chilly.
Check out a TikTok of the Kooler Kube in action.
Promising review: "I purchased my Kooler Kube to use when I go to weekend horse shows. I love this product! It kept my cooler cold all weekend long. The Kube was still frozen after four days of hot summer sun. I am so impressed that I plan to purchase more Kooler Kubes to give as gifts to my horse show friends. Thanks, Kooler Kube, for a product that performs!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $16.99.
26. A truly delightful retro-style fringe umbrella if you love being outside but also love chilling in the shade in ~style~. Whether you're headed to the beach or a picnic in the park, you'll love the fancy touch this umbrella adds to the overall aesthetic of your outing!
Beach State is a small business specializing in premium, high quality beach umbrellas.
Check out a TikTok of the umbrella in action.
Promising review: "This umbrella is exactly what my family was looking for as our everyday beach umbrella — large diameter, high quality, and cute retro design. It is a higher end umbrella but still slightly less expensive than the other big name designer beach gear company that we were considering. It is easy to pop up and stays standing, and we’ve had many compliments from other people at the beach asking where we got it. The customer service from the company was excellent. Would definitely recommend these umbrellas!" —Taryn
Get it from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in seven colors).
27. A handy corn stripper because removing kernels from the cob can take a long time (and be dangerous!) with just a knife. Now all you have to do is insert and twist the corn cob and the kernels will come raining down!
Check out a TikTok of the corn stripper in action.
Promising review: "This is the best corn stripper I have ever used. It is so easy to use and without a mess. All the corn falls into a container. Most importantly, it is much safer to use than the knife method." —Dennis W. Boivin
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in three styles).
28. A set of hair claw clips that provide a cute way to keep your hair off of your neck, which will help keep you cool during these hot months. Bonus: they'll even keep long, thick hair securely in place all day long.
Check these out on TikTok here!
I've owned this set for about a year and I am reaching for them constantly! I used to be someone who would tie my hair up in a messy bun whenever I'm doing things around the house, but I noticed how that would really start damaging my hair after a while. Instead, I just clip my hair back with one of these, and my long, thick hair stays in place without the claw jamming into my head. I have some other clips lying around that I should probably get rid of because I only ever exclusively use these!
Promising review: "I will admit I bought these from seeing them on TikTok and I needed new clips for my thick hair. I am not disappointed and beyond glad I got them. The colors are gorgeous and they stay put without hurting my head. I'm very impressed." —Jessica
Get a four-pack from Amazon for $6.98+ (available in 18 different color sets).

Check out this reviewer use 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 (cheaper!) alternative 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

Promising review: "I saw these recommended on a TikTok for people who can't regulate their temperature in the heat, and omg, was it worth buying them. You just add cold water and it's like an ice pack without the burning of the ice. They worked great for cooling my arm after the Covid shot! Excited to use them all summer!" —Muirgen Neal

Ponyback is a woman-owned small business that specializes in versatile magnetic snap baseball caps designed for all hair types.
Promising review: "I am in freaking love with this hat. All my friends tell me how amazing it looks on me. I have been wanting a nice ball cap, but since I normally have my hair up, I couldn’t find one that worked till this came along on my TikTok, and I knew I had to get it. And I was so happy I waited till it was in stock again. I just love this hat. I wasn’t sure about the size but just went for a small/medium size since I thought that would fit, and it’s just perfect when my hair is up. I am so happy." —Naysa H
Get it from Ponyback for $42 (available in youth sizes S–L and women's sizes XS–XXLG and in 12 colors).
34. A set of dip clips that attach to the AC vent of your car for an optimal on-the-go chicken nugget dunking or fry dipping experience during your summer road trip. At first, you might ask yourself, "Do I really need this?" and the answer to that question is, "Yes, you absolutely do."
They'll fit onto horizontal or vertical air vents *and* can hold sauce packs from all popular fast food chains to make eating in the parking lot wayyyy easier!
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 a two-pack from Amazon for $11.99 (available in three colors and in multi-packs).
35. A waterproof pouch to keep your cellphone dry, even if you take it with you while snorkeling, kayaking, or any other water activity this summer. Want to take pictures or answer a text? The clear sleeve still gives you full touchscreen capability!
Check this out in action on TikTok here!
It also comes with a lanyard so you can wear it around your neck.
Promising review: "This product is incredible. I purchased to use while in Key West for an iPhone 6, iPhone 6 plus, and Galaxy S6 Edge and it fits perfectly for each phone (but a little more snug with the iPhone 6 plus). It is completely waterproof and takes great photos and video through the case but you have to press record prior to submerging the case underwater. My family went snorkeling and kept the case with the phone inside submerged almost the entire time and had no issues with leakage. My family and I got stopped numerous times being asked where we purchased this product. Perfect even if just on the beach and you do not want to get sand or sunscreen on your phone and want to still take photos/text/browse the internet while on the beach. I will be purchasing this for everyone in my family as it has become a travel must-have! I highly recommend this product." —Jennifer Roman
Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in 14 colors).
36. A portable car vacuum because summer road trips mean a lot of snacks in the car, which also means a lot of crumbs in the car. This small but mighty vacuum can pick up all that debris from your car floor so you can arrive at your destination as crumb-free as possible!
Promising reviews: "This portable vacuum is ammmmmazing! I love all of the attachments to get the hard to reach spots! It gets the job done! TikTok made me buy it!
