1. A hand cream because if your hands are starting to look mummified, it's probably time for some moisture. Whether they're dry, cracked, red, or all of the above, this will help transform them *and* prevent further moisture loss.
Promising review: "I am amazed! I have dealt with eczema all my life. I've used steroid creams/ointments, lotions, wash, you name it. And then I tried this miracle product! In four days, my hands look better than they ever have! I can bend my finger without pain! I'm sooo happy with the results. And I have only been using it for four days (pictured above)!" —Kelly

2. A microwave cleaner so you can get all that gross gunk out. Fill it with water and a hint of vinegar, then pop it in the microwave. It'll loosen all that caked-on grime so you can wipe it away in one fell swoop.
Promising review: "I'm embarrassed to say I hadn't cleaned my microwave in about six months. It's an awful task. I ran this one time, wiped down easily, then ran it one more time to get it detailed really clean. I highly recommend using it (more often than once every six months) for a super fast, super clean microwave!" —Kelsey
Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (available in four colors).
3. A hairbrush cleaning tool that'll *actually* deliver on its promises and demolish the nasty crud living in your bristles. Who knew a clean brush could be this satisfying?
Promising review: "When I bought this I was really skeptical. I am grossed out by my hairbrush and clean it all the time. I've soaked it in vinegar and tea tree oil, used a toothbrush, scrubbed it with shampoo, picked it clean by hand — everything you can think of. Still, it's so hard to get the little lint that forms at the base of the brush — they don't dissolve off and you have to pick them off the bristles one by one because a toothbrush won't even break them up. This thing works amazingly. I don't know why, it just does — the particular texture of the bristles on this really grabs everything. It scraped the little lint rings right off and now my brush is cleaner, 10 times as fast." —HeartsofHavoc
Get it from Amazon for $11.95.
4. A ChomChom pet hair remover for pet parents who love their fur babies but are freaked out by the hair problem. Ditch the annoying adhesive rollers for this. Empty the compartment after using it and you're done!
Promising review: "I have three indoor cats, two of them seniors and they have really started shedding terribly. I own no less than a dozen different pet hair/lint removal gadgets and not ONE of them even approaches the effectiveness of this product. Normally, I time my pet hair removal sessions to right before I shower because I am dripping sweat after half an hour of grueling work. I just removed every trace of pet hair from my sofa in less than five minutes and I didn't even break a sweat. As I stood back and examined my sofa, I did not believe it had actually removed the hair but had probably pushed it around somewhere less visible. I popped the button that opens the hair collection compartment on the roller, and THE HAIR WAS IN THERE. WHAT?!!?! It actually took the hair off of my sofa and put it in the compartment!! Literally, I almost cried. I am considering having guests over into my home again...going out to make some friends right now!" —A.W.

Promising review: "Wish I took a before and after. Had a spot in the passenger seat of my car that took 3–4 attempts to get out. This thing got it out in one try. It’s also so easy to clean after using it. I’m impressed! My Bissell carpet shampooer works wonders, and had to give this one a try. This is an investment I do not regret." —Samantha padgett
Get it from Amazon for $123.59.

Promising review: "Got these to clean an old water bladder I had neglected. Left it to soak overnight and it’s as good as new! Smells and tastes clean. Then I used the tabs on some water bottles, and it worked great on those too. In the past, I’ve tried to use all sorts of household stuff to clean water bottles. Finally, I caved and bought Bottle Bright, and I don’t regret it. Will buy more when needed." —Nate

7. A Clorox toilet wand because cleaning your porcelain throne doesn't have to be a scene from a horror film. The scrubbers come loaded with cleaner, so just wave the wand around the bowl and it'll be clean before you know it.
Promising review: "You ever look at your toilet brush in disgust and resentment? How's a dirty used up brush sitting in your throne room? You clean your bathroom but then you put that sucker down in its place and it's just like, mocking you. It's never truly immaculate. Never knowing true cleanliness. Fear no more. Now you can shine the porcelain throne and not have to worry about a used up toilet brush mocking your clean sparkling bathroom. Gone are the days of breathing in dirty poop particles from the reusable potty cleaning brush thingy. Clorox Toilet Wand is the answer to your prayers if you want an easy, deep cleaning, toss-away-after-you're-done type contraption for that porcelain throne of yours. Fast, cheap, and easy.

Read my BuzzFeed coworker's review of this gross and satisfying tool.
Promising review: "Can't say enough good things about this product. I have a family of four and would frequently have to snake our shower drain, it appears I won't be having that problem ever again. I even give my dog baths and this collects the hair. It does not seem to slow down the flow of water down the drain significantly. I'm very impressed having been using around a month. You don't know how much hair you wash down your drain until you use this!" —Aaron Morlock
Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in six styles).
9. A tub of The Pink Stuff for purging your home of tough stains with *THE* most amazing cleaning paste. You'll be shocked by how quickly and easily this stuff can lift the stains you've been trying to tackle for ages.
Former BuzzFeed Shopping writer Britt Ross tried The Pink Stuff and says: "Upon moving to a new house, I discovered I'd inherited some not-so-well-maintained white bathroom tile, with white grout to match. At least, the grout had been white at one point. Woof. After having heard nothing but raves about The Pink Stuff, I decided to see how well it would work on what has probably been my most trying cleaning task to date. Well, I'm happy to report that after a bit of light scrubbing, The Pink Stuff was able to lift most of the muck off of the grout, revealing a much lighter surface underneath (GIF for proof!). While I think it might take a few more applications for the grout to *dazzle,* I'm super impressed by the difference I was able to see right away, and with not very much elbow grease to boot. I mean, it is white grout, so if it was able to work wonders on that, I can't wait to see what it does for my crusty pots and pans!"
Promising review: "What can I say? I love this product. My daughter drew a happy face in the bathtub (with permanent marker). I tried removing it with everything I could think of, but nothing worked. With this paste, it was gone within less than a minute. I immediately tried it on my stove — omg, I'm in love. It’s a purchase I don’t regret at all. Will be buying it again. This stuff has helped me remove stains that I wasn’t able to clean with anything." —Happy customer

Sunny & Honey is a family-run small business that specializes in cleaning products, especially ones for homes with pets!
Promising review: "The scent from this cleaner was pleasing versus the harsh chemical smell from the other brands out there. Yet, it was able to remove old stains that had been in the carpet fiber for well over seven years. Now the carpet looks great with no grainy feel to it when you walk on it with bare feet; although I did vacuum afterward. Just as important, the carpet does not have the unpleasant odor that has lingered and would rear its ugly head from time to time! The only thing I regret is not taking before and after pictures!" —Marie J.
Get it from Amazon for $19.50.
11. A foot exfoliation mask so you can finally put calluses behind you. You'll feel oddly satisfied when you see the dead skin flaking off, but at least your feet will be silky-smooth now!
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!

Promising review: “Love love love Folex!! Super easy to use. The bottle does exactly what it says. My chairs were SUPER DIRTY from my 2.5-year-old grandson eating and feeding dogs. I couldn’t believe how easy it was and how clean they got after just one use. Mind blown!!” —Carobnty

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 $13.27 (also available in two other styles).

Promising review: "I have a white shower and soap scum is so visible! It was hard to clean it off until I saw this product on TikTok. I bought it and used it right after receiving it. I sprayed my shower with cleaner and was done in 10 minutes. 10/10" —Asha Dunn

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

16. And a stainless-steel tongue scraper that fights horrific breath and leaves 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

17. A bottle of Goo Gone foaming spray because eventually, the icky goo in your life will become too much to bear. Yes, those stubborn stains really *did* vanish before your eyes.

Promising review: "OMG, these should be standard issue to every human. I’ve bought them all, the cheap foot files, the expensive ones, the Ped Egg and even a foot file from that direct sales nail wrap company. None of those remotely compare to this one. I thought I was reduced to course heels forever; no more! With just one use my heels are fabulous! The calluses this thing removed were absolutely disgusting, but I couldn’t be happier. You won’t be disappointed!!" —JMart
Get it from Amazon for $9.95.

Check out our full FURemover pet hair broom review for more deets!
Promising review: "I have two dogs — a terrier mix and a short-hair dachshund mix. I have a navy woven couch that LOVES my dachshund's fur. I have tried pretty much everything to get the fur out — traditional lint roller, those blue fuzzy lint rollers, special vacuum attachments, etc. The terrier's fur comes out great with all of those options. The dachshund's fur, much like the dachshund herself, remains stubbornly on my couch. I got this product as the new 'let's see if it works' item of the month with low expectations. THE FUR ACTUALLY CAME OUT, GUYS. It acts like a broom for my couch — sweeping the fur (with some elbow grease) basically onto the floor where I vacuum it up! Give this a try if my story sounds pretty similar to yours!" —Janielle
Get it from Amazon for $18.35.
20. A plant-based cooking oil solidifier so you can quickly and easily dispose of leftover cooking grease without making yourself gag. Sprinkle the powder in the oil while it's hot, let it cool, and then scoop it into the trash.

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

Promising review: "We bought a house with a jetted tub in December. Despite several DIY cleaners, the jets still had a funky smell. Bought this product after seeing it on YouTube, and do not regret my purchase! The amount of 'yuck' that came out of the system was 'ewwww'! Bonus is my entire bedroom suite smelled clean after using!" —Meganb

23. 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).
24. A game-changing nail biting polish when the phrase "old habits die hard" feels a little too real. You'll kick your bad habit *and* enjoy watching your nails magically transform from stubs to beauts.
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 $15.33 (also available as a two-pack).
25. Wet & Forget shower cleaner to keep your shower sparkling clean and free of that awful mildew that you can't help but gawk at. Spray it once a week, let it sit, and rinse it clean. No scrubbing or wiping necessary!
Promising review: "This may be the best thing I have ever bought off of Amazon. And I buy quite a bit. This was something I needed and didn't even know it! Long story short, the tub in my kids' bathroom was atrocious, due to spotty cleaning and hard water. I bought this with a heavy dose of skepticism, even though the reviews were mighty impressive. On the back of the bottle, it says that you may need several daily applications before your tub is clean, and then you can switch to weekly application. I'm on day three, and let me say, even if this stuff worked no further, I AM BLOWN AWAY. The shower looks close to new. A couple more days, and I'll be able to switch to weekly! I won't post pictures because I'm embarrassed of how bad it looked before. But seriously, I am SO happy to have discovered this product, and I plan to keep on using it." —Tee
Get it from Amazon for $20.98.
26. An antifungal tea tree balm that can help treat just about any persistent skin condition you've been struggling with. Whether it's athlete's foot, jock itch, or plain old dry skin, this stuff is a miracle in a jar.
Promising review: "I ordered this balm on a whim as a remedy for a skin rash, and was very impressed with its effectiveness! After getting rid of my rash, I decided to try it elsewhere and it worked wonders on dry skin areas like elbows, knees, and feet. I was blown away with how I changed my feet entirely! As a dancer, my feet have always been a war zone: dry skin, callouses, ingrown toenails, and athlete's foot (all frequent problems over the course of many years). I was always embarrassed to wear sandals or any type of shoes that would show off parts of my feet because of all the dry skin, but sometimes it couldn't be avoided. This balm has made my feet the loveliest they have been and now I can choose any type of shoes I want to wear without embarrassment." —anengstrom

Promising review: "100% the BEST product I have ever used for shower/grout mold stains. It really does work in 15 minutes. I was very skeptical because the videos look too good to be true, but it ABSOLUTELY works! I just reordered the gallon-size bottle for our vinyl fence. It stinks a little bit, but not nearly as badly as a lot of other bathroom cleaning products I have used. Seriously, you will not regret this purchase!" —Amazon Customer

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

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.

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.
Buzzfeed Shopping senior writer Emma Lord says: "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)."

"I get really bad dry patches on certain areas of my scalp. I’ve tried all sorts of products for years and nothing has made a dent until I started adding Briogeo Scalp Revival products to my routine.

I can’t go many days without washing my hair and I use this product about once, sometimes twice, a week." —Jennifer T.
32. Some makeup brush-cleaning shampoo so you can wash away those impurities residing in your brush bristles immediately. The results might give you goosebumps — in the best way.
This shampoo is hypoallergenic, cruelty-free, and paraben-free.
Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE this brush shampoo! I was a little skeptical of how well it would clean my brushes since I'd never tried it before, but after using this I am very pleased with the outcome. It has a faint shampoo scent but nothing too overpowering, and suds like you wouldn't believe. It got all the way down to the base of the brush and gave it a really good cleaning. One of my brushes is made from boar hair (Estée Lauder powder brush) and I was worried it was going to frizz it out and ruin the shape, but it actually improved it after I had previously used baby shampoo. It's very soft and not at all coarse feeling. I also used this shampoo on my Beauty Blender, and it did a great job getting all the foundation out. All in all, I'd rate this product a 10/10!" —Ryan Brooks

33. A hard-water stain remover if your shower has become so shockingly disgusting that you avoid having house guests. Restore it to its beautiful like-new condition by removing those nightmarish stains for good.
It even has a minty scent, so you don't have to worry about that harsh chemical smell most cleaning products usually emit.
Promising review: "I have tried for weeks to get rid of some very tough hard-water stains on my glass shower panel. They had been there for three years while my apartment was rented and never cleaned. I have tried just about everything from toothpaste to vinegar to different types of chemical products. Then I found this product...PURE MAGIC!!! The nontoxicity of the product is definitely a plus, it doesn't smell bad and doesn't sting your lungs like some hard chemicals do. Its biodegradability is a plus! I feel better knowing I'm not dumping some more toxic chemicals down the drain. Most importantly, it works!!! After 10 minutes of work it has removed 90% of the hard-water stains that simply would not come off in the past!!" —O.R

Promising review: "I really loved this product. I am currently waiting for a new Invisalign set. My old Invisalign needed to be cleaned. I read the reviews and decided to purchase. OMG it worked! There was a fresh taste and they were clean. I wish I had found this product sooner. I did let them soak overnight only because I had been wearing them for the last four months. Nothing happened to Invisalign; there was no weakness or anything. Just very clean and fresh. If I could have given the product 10 stars, I would have." —Lisa R.

Promising review: "I just bought my first house, and because of COVID I have not had the funds I wanted to fix it up. This was cheap, and the backsplash in my new kitchen was an eyesore. I wasn't expecting much because of the price, and I am absolutely stunned. My kitchen looks so much better! It was easy to use, no odor, and quick! I did two coats because the color was dark brown. Some places I did more, but I didn't mind doing it because it was actually really satisfying. Definitely recommend this product!" —Kim

Promising review: "I don’t leave reviews, EVER! BUT this product is hands down worth every penny. I’m amazed, it’s magic. The dog urine smell from our kitchen tile grout was driving me [bananas], to the point I was convincing my husband to buy me new flooring. I thought I would try this before dropping thousands on that idea. I’m glad I did! This stuff smells so damn good and the next day, I didn’t smell any urine anymore. Super thankful for this product, it’s my new go-to!" —ASHLEE

38. A Waterpik flosser to lift plaque and food particles from those areas that are simply too hard to reach with a toothbrush alone. You might be grossed out by what was hiding in there, but it'll be *very* satisfying to get rid of it.
This water flosser has 10 settings for a custom clean, a massage mode for gum stimulation, and a built-in timer to help you track flossing time. It comes with seven rotating tips and has a removable reservoir that holds up to 22 ounces of water, which allows for 90 seconds of use without any refilling required.
Promising review: "This Waterpik does an outstanding job, and I can see the difference in my teeth and gums after a few days' use. It is good for cleaning between the teeth where the toothbrush misses. If you get this, follow the directions. Money well spent." —Roy

Humble Suds is a small business based in Evergreen, Colorado, and run by moms Holli and Jennifer.
BuzzFeed Shopping writer Danielle Healy swears by this stuff. In her own words: "I recently moved into a new apartment, so lately I've been cleaning A LOT. Shortly after moving in, my partner and I went to store something on the top of the kitchen cabinets only to find them caked in a thick layer of grime 🤢 After going at it with regular multipurpose cleaner (with little success), we broke out the scour paste as a last-ditch effort and OH BOY did this miracle product deliver (pics above). If it can handle that grossness, it's going to have no problem with day-to-day messes like soap scum and burnt-on food. Plus, it smells delightful and comes in minimal, low-waste packaging!"
Promising review: "Buyer beware: don’t buy just one!! Learn from my mistake, and buy at least two jars because this stuff is INCREDIBLE. I used it on my textured shower floor. It was EASIER to clean and required less scrubbing than any other product I’ve used, including CLR. If you have black matte bathroom fixtures, this is the stuff you need. My shower and sink drains look brand new. My other favorite part about this scour paste, is the fact that I don’t need to use any paper towels. Just a wet rag to wipe it all down at the end. I will be buying more jars for myself and to give to my friends because this stuff is absolutely amazing. You won’t regret it!" —littleashleyshortcak
