1. A blackhead scrub stick to get rid of any excess sebum and other impurities that might be clogging your precious pores. After cleansing, rub it on your face to exfoliate *and* banish stubborn blackheads and whiteheads!
Psst! TikTokers love this thing!
Promising reviews: "Must-have. I use this a couple of times a week. I have terrible blackheads and this manages to scrub 90% of them away and the rest are barely noticeable. Will keep buying." —Princess Jasmin
"After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me, smells great too. Here's how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt is visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, then I used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like myself." —LuckLocust
Get it from Amazon for $12.50.
2. A nose hair wax kit if you want to quickly remove rogue nostril hairs *without* it ending in a face full of tears. The kit comes with everything you need to eliminate the hair and keep it gone for up to four weeks.
You'll get 100 grams of nose wax beads, 30 wax applicators, 10 mustache protectors, a measuring cup, and 15 paper cups at your disposal.
Promising review: "I highly recommend this product. The instructions were super easy to follow, and it worked perfectly! I was a little nervous to pull the sticks out once the two minutes were up; however, it didn't even hurt. I expected it to hurt momentarily and my eyes to water, but neither was true! If you wanna get rid of them pesky nose hairs...snag this product!!!" —Julie J.
Get it from Amazon for $17.49 (available in two colors).
3. A pair of exfoliating mitts for ~super smooth~ skin ASAP — no harsh chemicals or rough dry brushes necessary. Regular exfoliation is great for reducing those semi-embarrassing probs, like bumps and ingrown hairs.
Promising review: "I’ve had acne problems for a while across my body and was dumbfounded trying to get it cleared. It all makes sense why with all this dead skin clogging my pores!!! So much came off and my skin literally feels soooooo smooth and soft. Love this! —Fayeleigh Tune
Get them from Amazon for $11.99 (also available individually).
4. Batiste Dry Shampoo because sometimes washing your hair just isn't in the cards, and that's nothing to be ashamed of. This tones down greasy locks *and* adds some much-needed volume.
Promising review: "This dry shampoo is my favorite. I bought the original fragrance which is nice and very subtle. I've bought so many dry shampoos, but this really works well, especially on fine hair. It creates more volume which is something I need." —Colleen
Get it from Amazon for $12.89 (also available in packs of two or three).
It was also selected as our low-price point pick for the best dry shampoos.
5. A hydrating "Like Butter" mist, which can help soothe the painful irritation caused by eczema and other sensitive skin issues. The spray bottle is designed to cover hard-to-reach areas. Plus, the formula is dermatologist tested and is safe to strengthen and support the skin's moisture barrier.
Key ingredients for this include: Hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, and centella asiatica (aka tiger grass). It's also vegan and cruelty-free!
Topicals is a WOC-founded small business started by Olamide Olowe, who actually ditched plans to apply to medical school in favor of launching her skincare brand.
Promising review: "I looooove this product. I have eczema and it’s so much easier to moisturize my entire body with this spray. It has an herbal smell when you first spray it but it goes away quickly (I like the smell though). My only complaint is that I wish it was bigger!" —clearlykendra
Get it from Sephora for $30.
6. A stainless-steel tongue scraper that'll conquer bad breath and leave your mouth with that fresh clean feeling. No one will be offering you an unsolicited stick of gum anytime soon.
Promising review: "This product works!! High-quality material, well made, easy to clean, corrosion resistant, at least in my experience. I can tell this will last a long time. And, it works!!!! Got rid of a coating on my tongue that other tongue scrapers and the tongue cleaners on toothbrushes did nothing for!! Noticed it got a lot off the first use!!! My tongue looks healthy, and my throat feels better. Once a thicker layer starts on the tongue due to postnasal drip there's nothing else that got rid of it. It's easy to hold, and doesn't gag me at all. It comes with a travel case, which I love because I don't want anything that goes in my mouth loose in a bag." —Saffire Dragon
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $9.99.
7. And an oral rinse with more than 4,500 5-star reviews on Amazon for a reason — it fights bad breath for 24 hours and doesn't have a super strong taste that lingers. Put down the mints and pick up the rinse!
Promising review: "TikTokers have done it again. This was one of the products on Amazon a person could not live without stating all-day freshness. It's true, I cannot believe it. The taste isn't strong, it does not burn at all. It keeps my breath smelling fresh all day no matter what I eat. This brand will be a new staple in my bathroom and morning routine." —Zac
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $15.34.
8. A li'l toenail brace set to correct your nail's natural curve — you know, the one that causes awful ingrowns and makes you want to avoid closed-toe shoes at all costs. This'll straighten things out and relieve that painful pressure you love to hate.
The kit comes with 10 toenail braces and the materials needed to apply them, including a nail file, solvent, and cotton swabs.
Promising review: "I never realized how curved my toenails were. I thought the pain I had was just normal and a fact of life. Only when I read about the Curve Correct product, did I realize that I had a major problem, and it could be resolved! Now I'm on the way to normal, flat toenails, that DON'T grow curved into my skin!" —Jamie H.
Get the kit from Amazon for $44.99.
9. A bottle of Tend Skin Solution so you never again have to worry about lifting your arms in fear that someone might catch a glimpse of your razor burn. Be gone, bumps!
This can be applied after shaving and waxing to prevent bumps and burns. It can also be applied at night independent of shaving to help clear any existing ingrown hairs and bumps.
Promising review: "I’m not one to leave a review about many products but I saw a review on this product that made me buy it and I thought it was only fair to pay it forward! I’ve dealt with horrendous ingrown hairs for years! I’ve tried everything to minimize them, expensive wax packages and expensive serums and creams, plucking, not shaving — you name it I tried it. This product has literally put everything I’ve tried to shame! For the price, it was so worth it! I’ve been using it for about a month every day after I get out of the shower (I saw someone say they put it in a spray bottle to get full use of the product rather than it seeping into a cotton ball, 10/10 would recommend) I haven’t gotten an ingrown since and the ones I had healed! The smell is kind of strong but so are the results. I also have pretty sensitive skin and I was worried about using it after I shave/wax, burns a lil' bit but it didn’t cause a flare-up. Can’t wait to not be insecure at the beach this summer!" —Jess
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in two sizes).
10. Mighty Patches that are truly ~tiny but mighty~ with the power to pull gunk right out of zits. Put one on at bedtime and behold the grossness (but also amazingness, tbh) when you wake up.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Amanda Davis tried these and says: "I've tried various (countless 😅) pimple patches in the past and The Mighty Patch definitely takes the cake. I stick it on and honestly forget that it's even there. The adhesive is strong, so it stays on during my tossing and turning at night, but I often wear it during the day, too! I work from home, and it's not noticeable during my video calls which I truly, truly appreciate. I begin seeing the gunk from my zits after 2–3 hours of having it covered, but I leave it on for at least the full six. When it's removed, it's like the healing time was sped up and what would've taken a couple of days took just HOURS."
Be sure to read the full Mighty Pimple Patch review for more deets!
Promising review: "I purchased these for my son, who suffers from cystic acne. He puts them on the pimples at night and in the morning, the pimples are dramatically reduced in size and his skin is 'flat' in his words. I highly recommend these to anyone who suffers from any type of acne. They were recommended by another mom on my son's basketball team. Her son was using them and I am so thankful that she shared how great the Mighty Patches are!" —Slade Salisbury

Promising review: "I HAVE NEVER HAD A HOLY GRAIL PRODUCT. UNTIL NOW!! Literally SO effective. Tons of people have been complimenting my skin from my boyfriend (who doesn't always notice subtle changes) to my coworkers ONLINE VIA VIDEO! My skin literally looks visibly brighter and smoother. The only thing you have to be careful of is if you freshly wax or thread any part of your face. Wait a day or two to use the product in case you have sensitive skin to be safe!" —Ulta Customer
Get it from Ulta, Amazon, or Live Tinted for $34.
12. A pack of four toe separators to relieve that nagging pain caused by bunions you thought you were going to be stuck with forever. Surprise! These silicone separators are even comfy enough to wear with your fave shoes.
Promising review: "I've noticed bunions developing in the past month and the pain is becoming more intolerable. I put these on for the first time after wearing heels all day. Within just a few minutes of wearing them, I knew I had found an answer. I was able to wear them in my tennis shoes during my workout with no issues. I don't want to take them off! While there is nothing sexy about how they look, there is also nothing sexy about a bunion. I'll choose to wear them and have happy feet." —R Harlow
Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in eight colors).
13. Some wart-removing pads for dealing with pesky warts the easy way. Simply apply the medicated pads like bandages to remove warts. Replace the bandage every 48 hours until your growth goes POOF!
Promising review: "I had a wart on my finger that I had been trying to get rid of for a while. I used all different kinds of freezing medicines and wart removers and ended up with this as a last resort before going to a doctor. These had my wart come off my finger within a week — no pain, literally just came off when I decided to change my bandaid. Amazing!!" —K Pic
Get a 14-pack from Amazon for $7.29+ (available in three styles).
14. A physician-designed earwax remover so you don't have to hold your breath and hope for the best when cleaning your ears. Ditch the dangerous cotton swabs and use this safe *and* more effective method instead.
The kit includes the washer bottle and three disposable tips. Using it is simple: Fill the bottle with your preferred ear cleaning solution, attach the disposable tip, and then spray the cleaner into your ear. This will loosen up wax and cause it to basically just fall right out of your ear!
Promising review: "This thing is amazing. It is one of those things that look so simple that you don't think it can possibly do any better than all the other things out there. But it does. After going to a hot spring, my right ear was plugged up. I tried various oily ear cleaners; I went to the doctor who tried a syringe and peroxide; I tried using an ear cleaner bulb; I even tried jumping up and down with my head tilted. Nothing worked. Then, I got this little gadget and on the first try with just warm water, my ear was cleared. The sink looked like someone had puked in it, I am not kidding you. I did not think my ear could possibly hold that much junk in it. I can now hear whispers from across the room. I will be getting more tips for this sucker. And I am going to clean out my ears every month from now on!" —Thomas Wong
Get it from Amazon for $31.95.
15. A Squatty Potty if you want nothing more than to ~go with the flow~ but haven't been able to. The squatting position helps unkink your colon so you can go more efficiently and reduce strain.
Promising review: "Perfect conditions for first time with the Squatty Potty. After a weekend of white cheese dip heaven at the local Mexican restaurant, I knew I would be paying the consequences. Yep, you guessed it, hemorrhoid hell. Enter the Squatty Potty. I was excited I got this for my pregnant wife and couldn’t wait to be the first to give it a go. I got in the potty, raised my feet and literally the poo just slid right out out my body with minimal straining. This device is a game changer. It will save me over the year cause I won’t need hemorrhoid ointment. This would have saved Elvis’s life!! If Elvis had a Squatty Potty, he would be with us today. Thank you Squatty Potty." —UTGrad
Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in two sizes).
16. An easy-to-install Tushy bidet when you're done with endless wiping that leads to some serious discomfort below the belt. Plus, you'll save major $$$ on TP! Your tushy will surely thank you for this investment.
The — dare we say it — sleek attachment requires no electrical or plumbing work to install and you can have it up and running in 10 minutes or less. It fits on round, oval, and elongated toilets, too, so you shouldn't have any issues.
Promising review: "How have I lived for 68 years without my Tushy Spa??????? ❤️ This is one of the best purchases that I have ever made! Obviously, I HIGHLY recommend it!!!!!!! I might have to buy another one to take on vacation!!! 😳" —Brenda N.
Get it from Tushy or Amazon for $129 (available in seven color combinations).
17. A two-pack of "flossing toothbrushes," because is there anything worse than food particles stuck between the teeth? Problem solved! These not-so-ordinary brushes have multilayer bristles that act as strong pieces of floss to get in there REAL good.
Mouthwatchers is a small business established by Ronald Plotka, DDS, that specializes in antimicrobial toothbrushes designed to get deeper cleans that even patients with "great" dental hygiene might miss with traditional brush and floss routines.
Here's what one of our editors, Emma Lord, has to say: "I love it just after the first few days of use! I use an electric toothbrush usually, but I feel like I'm getting a much more satisfying clean from these?? Especially because I tend to get yellow stains between my teeth no matter *how* much I floss, and these bristles seem to actually target that a lot more effectively."
Promising review: "I'm amazed at how well this toothbrush cleans my teeth — it definitely gets between the teeth and also more importantly for me, gets in the small, deep crevices in my molars where I always have food stuck and regular toothbrushes couldn't get stuff out. I brush more often (after meals/snacks) because of how effective it is. As stated, definitely go easy around the gums. The bristles feel soft, but will cause your gums to bleed if you use regular pressure. Nice and easy does the trick, SO WELL!" —Jason A.
Get a pair from Amazon for $9.90 (also available as a four-pack).
18. A "why didn't I try this sooner?" teeth-whitening pen for instant results that'll make you a believer. It can get rid of stains from wine, coffee, tea, etc. It's painless, effective, *and* mint-flavored.
Promising review: "I really didn't realize how well it worked until I took the after picture. Then I felt bad that I had not done this before. Let me start by saying, I did not even do this every day. I am bad about starting something and not finishing it, but I did use the two tubes that I purchased. I plan on purchasing two more so I can get my teeth whiter. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to get their teeth whiter." —Sheri Blanchard
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $15.99 (clip the $4 off coupon on the product page for this price).

The kit includes one tonsil stone extractor tool, one irrigation syringe, two extractor heads, a 3-inch head with a silicone cap, a 2.5-inch head with a silicone cap, a precision tweezer head, batteries, a stainless steel pick, and a storage box.
Promising review: "I'm in my early thirties and just started getting tonsil stones. Until a few months ago, I never even knew what these things were! I've been struggling with cotton swabs to fully remove the stones but couldn't get rid of them and they would just come back within the week. I received this and OMFG...best investment ever. No struggle holding my phone as a flashlight while awkwardly posing myself in front of my badly lit bathroom mirror. I sat comfortably at my vanity, used one hand, and removed the whole stone in less than a minute. Why did I not know this was a thing? Why have I been struggling? Get it! Stop struggling, suffering, and awkwardly dealing with this ridiculous condition...trust me." —Wren
Get it from Amazon for $9.98+ (available in two colors and as a two-pack).
20. A game-changing nail biting polish when the phrase "old habits die hard" feels a little too real. If you're finally ready to grow some beautiful nails instead of rockin' the stubby look, this stuff can help you kick the habit.
Promising review: "This really helps!!! I've been biting my nails to the nub for 24 years. I have nails now and I don't bite anymore; that's all I wanted. This product made that happen. It tastes SO bad, I never realized how much I subconsciously put my hands in my mouth until I used this. However, I figured I should warn you/give you guys a heads up, be prepared to taste this on ANY AND ALL foods you have to eat with your hands. To me, that was a small sacrifice I was DEFINITELY willing to make to get my nails to this point. I don't even need to use it anymore because now I'm more aware of my nails. All in all, I HIGHLY recommend this product." —Kelsey Walton
Get it from Amazon for $13.86.

22. And a foot file so you can say goodbye to crusty feet without an expensive trip to the nail salon. Rub the file on your feet and watch the dead skin fall right off. Disgusting, but oh-so satisfying.
Promising review: "OK, I was skeptical because there are so many to choose from and everyone has an opinion on what works and what doesn't. I have extremely crusty feet and because COVID was going on, I hadn't been able to get to the salons so I bought this and tried it at home. IT WORKED! I am very pleased. My feet are hella soft and I ain't embarrassed wearing flip-flops. This product 100% works so if you are looking for a product like I was and taking forever to make a decision...then stop and buy this one." —Serlencie Vick Abram Jr
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
23. SweatBlock antiperspirant wipes because there's no way around it: Sweaty pits are ~the pits~, and I dare you to prove me wrong. Give your armpits a swipe before bed, wash them in the morning, and enjoy seven days of sweat-free bliss.
Each box lasts two months!
Promising review: "For anyone who might be a skeptic, please allow me to put you at ease. If you have hyperhidrosis, meaning it can be 9 degrees outside and you're still sweating under your arms, this product has the potential to change your life. I would sweat THROUGH a sport coat before noon. Enter the Sweat Block product. I've had it for three weeks, and it is life-changing. I DO NOT sweat under my arms anymore. I'm still on the original box that I bought three weeks ago. I had to write a review after I was cleaning the garage today in 85-degree heat...I was sweating through my shirt on my back...BUT NOT MY UNDERARMS. It is amazing!" —Frosty McGee
Get a 10-pack from Amazon for $19.99+ (also available in packs of two or three boxes).
24. A pumice cleaning stone so you can power through years of rust, lime, and calcium buildup before your guests arrive. If it's too much for a toilet brush to handle, this'll get the job done. It's nontoxic and has ZERO mercy on dirt, but it's still gentle enough to use on your porcelain throne.
This pumice stone cleaner is free of chemicals and odors. It also has a heavy-duty plastic handle so you'll have a solid grip while you clean. Use gentle back-and-forth motions to remove stains and deposits from inside the toilet bowl, and voila!
Promising review: "Will definitely buy again. Almost 30 years of hard-water buildup of green, and I tried everything for years to remove the green stain. This product rocks. It takes a little elbow grease but sure is worth it. Just don't use it on surfaces that will scratch. In my case, the fiberglass tub aggravates and is hard to clean. After 30 years, I scrubbed away and didn't regret it one bit, and the tub looks almost new." —Debra L.
Get it from Amazon for $12.99.
25. And a bottle of Poo-Pourri before-you-go toilet spray that'll keep your bathroom smelling fresh at all times (yes, even *those* #2 times). Your guests will also appreciate being able to do their business without stinkin' up the joint.
Spray this a few times into the toilet bowl before you do your business. That's it!

Get a set of three from Amazon for $5.94.
29. A foot exfoliation mask when you want to put calluses and dead skin behind you. You'll regret not buying it sooner, but at least your feet won't be a source of embarrassment anymore.
To get your foot nice and smooth, slip on the foot mask and leave them on for at least an hour (some reviewers recommend just throwing socks over the mask to keep things secure). After you remove and wash your feet, you'll see your dead skin and calluses begin to peel a few days later — if you've got a lot, It'll look something like the pics above. The gross (but oddly fun?) part is watching the process as you slowly make your way to super-smooth feet!

30. Body Glide anti-chafing balm because when is any kind of chafing not a problem? Keep this stuff on hand and you'll never have to deal with this annoyance again.
Promising reviews: "Worth every penny! I use this on my ankles/heels before a hike and it is the only thing that has ever stopped blisters from forming while wearing hiking boots. I have used this for years and it has never failed me. I've tried multiple other anti-blister aids but I always end up coming back to this one!" —Bee
"Purchased this due to getting heat rashes along underwear line during work (running around a lot and it gets hot!)

Intimate Rose is a small biz creating wellness products, like dilators, weights, supplements, and more that help treat issues and pain related to the pelvic floor.
Promising review: "Since starting, my bladder control has significantly improved. I am now able to sneeze or cough without peeing myself. Yes, that's right. I am able to hold my pee longer, which means I can actually make it to the bathroom without dribbling on myself. The best part is that just a few short weeks into the program you will have results you can feel. I think every woman who has ever had kids should try this, out. The overall quality of my life has improved. Ditch your panty liners, stop the embarrassing dribbles, no more mad dashes to the restroom because of a weak bladder. Even my sex life has improved; I have control of those pelvic muscles now. Just remember to wash the weights before and after each use with an antibacterial spray, and allow time to air dry before putting them away. I say air dry because if you wipe them dry with a cloth you run the risk of giving yourself a bladder infection or urinary tract infection, and those are no laughing matter. Easy to use, easy to clean, stores away quickly." —Lady Tauber
Get a set of six weights from Amazon for $54.99.
32. A Waterpik flosser for lifting plaque and food particles from those areas that are simply too hard to reach with a toothbrush alone.

Get it from Amazon for $79.97 (available in four colors).
33. A flexible drain snake so you don't have to explain to your house guests why the water is draining slower than molasses. This tool removes massive clogs that are downright horrifying. It has a "micro-hook" head and rotating handle to achieve a 360-degree removal, aka the magic you usually pay a pricey plumber for.
This pack contains a reusable handle and five single-use heads that you just remove and dispose of after handling your clogged pipes.
Promising review: "Wow. Best thing ever. Seriously. I have had tweezers and sticks and plumbers and chemicals trying to get my master sink to drain. Plumber even said I need an entirely new faucet to get the drain plug part because they don't sell those separately. Well, I have two sinks, a tub, and shower that all match so that was not a valid solution. Doubt I can find the same model. So I bought this thing. Stuffed it down, pulled up hair, and black muck. Did it about eight times quickly, ran the water, went right down the drain. Seriously. This is the best tool ever and the best $12 I have ever spent. Everyone with a sink needs this tool. Seriously." —juliejules
Get a five-pack from Amazon for $19.99.
34. A podiatrist-level toenail clipper to keep your extra-thick toenails in check while preventing ingrown ones from getting much worse. The lightweight handle and sharp cutter are easy to use, so you can tame those babies at home without judgment.
Here's why my BuzzFeed Shopping colleague Emma Lord loves this thing: "Hello, my toenails are problem children for two reasons: One is that they're kinda thick, the other is that I'm a long-distance runner, which doesn't play nice with toenails. I bought this recently and the difference it made immediately was ENORMOUS. Like I usually dread approaching my big toenails because they are so thick, but these painlessly and seamlessly lobbed the tops right off; I was also able to ~gently correct~ a toenail that was starting to get ingrown and help cut down a dead toenail that needed trimming but would have been painful to approach with a regular clipper."
Promising review: "We bought this for our teen grandson to use for an ingrown toenail because he was not able to go to a nail salon that he trusted to fix this problem. It worked perfectly. He was so pleased with the result as it took care of his painful problem! Thank you for making a fantastic product. Every household should own one!" —T.S.

35. First Aid Beauty's KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub Exfoliant when you're desperate for smooth, healthy skin without any dry patches or bumps ruining your day. Reviewers with keratosis pilaris and other similar skin textures love this stuff!
Promising review: So I have keratosis pilaris or goose-like bumps on my bum and have been always super self-conscious about it. I’ve used this product five to eight times and they are seriously like GONE. It’s soooo smooth now and I’m super happy. It does say to use once a week but I’ve just been using it every time I shower (which is almost every day lol). I only use a dime size amount and it’s able to cover my bum and some of my legs. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who also has pesky bumps on their body. Also, this product has no scent, which is a plus for anyone who has sensitive skin!!" —Ang M

36. A natural shoe deodorizer spray because you shouldn't have to hold your breath each time you pass the shoe area in your home. Your shoes will smell like lemon and eucalyptus rather than a pair of old sweaty socks (it happens to the best of us).
Promising review: "I would highly recommend this spray. I purchased mine in the extra strength scent, sprayed all of my shoes, and the odor is gone. The smell is lovely, and my room doesn’t smell like gym shoes anymore lol. It knocked the odor out! My shoes and boots smell lovely, the room smells lovely, and my gym shoes are fresh. Excellent product quality." —Jhia

37. Some Sevích hairline shadow, which will touch up graying roots and fill in thinning areas in a pinch. It gives the appearance of thicker, fuller hair with minimal effort. Use the sponge applicator to apply some color to the areas on your scalp that need help. Hats are now optional because you've got nothin' to hide!
This stuff is cruelty-free and contains nontoxic plant fibers and beeswax so it's safe to use on your skin.
Promising review: "This product is AMAZING! If you have thinning hair or graying hair, this powder is a must-have. It even creates a bit of volume to my very thin hair. I've purchased many different hair products to conceal my thinning hair, most are ineffective, messy, or leave my hair feeling greasy. This is super easy to use; I even use it for my sparse eyebrows: I simply use a soft, small lip liner brush to fill in my brows for a natural look. I also love that it lasts till your next shampoo. At first, I didn't like the built-in sponge, but I've grown to really like it. The powder sticks to the sponge, making it easy to apply to whatever area you want to cover up, and the powder doesn't come off on pillows if you leave it on overnight." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $9.98 (available in 12 shades).
38. A double-sided hairbrush cleaning brush that'll *actually* demolish that hair buildup that has been accumulating for... too long. The bristles can remove all types of hair while the pointed end can rake out loose hair from the brush.
Promising review: "This is the tool I never knew I needed. It may seem like a silly thing to spend money on when you can clean your brush out by hand but this gets so much more out of the brush! It's easy and rather enjoyable. Who wants to brush their nice clean hair with a brush full of dirty oily hair and dust? When you really think about it, it makes you want to throw out all your old brushes. I will be buying these as gifts for all my girlfriends." —emmaline
