1. A mason jar cold brew maker if you're all about an aesthetically-pleasing kitchen item that also saves you money. Make delicious cold brew at home instead of running to Starbucks or Dunkin' for your caffeine fix!
Check out a TikTok of the mason jar cold brew maker.
It can serve up to 12 cups — or about a full week of coffee! Plus, its airtight lid will keep it fresh. You just fill the filter with your favorite grounds, pour in water, and let it brew in the fridge!
Promising reviews: "I NEED coffee every day, and spending $5 every day for iced coffee at DD was just not it. I found this from TikTok, and it's the best TikTok-made-me-buy-it purchase so far. So easy to make, so easy to clean, and fits perfectly in my small fridge. And it saves me $$$." —Alex G.
"This cold-brew coffee maker is fantastic. It takes less time to set up a brew than it takes to load the Mr. Coffee for regular coffee. And the brilliant feature of this coffee brewing system is that it makes enough to last several days. I enjoy the ease with which I simply 'turn the tap' to pour a glass." —Mr. Donald L. Stevens

Check out a TikTok of the BYO Blush in action.
BuzzFeed Shopping senior writer Emma Lord says: "I tried this out myself and I have to say, it is WILD watching it adjust to your skin's pH in real time. It was a very bright pink at first but super easy to spread — a bit like Glossier's Cloud Paint, except personalized. It's very long lasting, too — I applied in the morning and could still see a rosy glow by the end of the day."
Promising review: "Dewy and glowy. I tried it over makeup and it appeared as a strong pink shade but settled to a flushed, glowy color. I had my little sister try it too because I wanted to see the color change again and it lasted a really long time on her. The texture was smooth and it was easy to rub in and blend out." —Summer

Check out a TikTok of the rolling garlic mincer.

Get it from Amazon for $12.91.
4. An effortless lint remover that'll actually blow your mind with how effective it is for extracting trapped pet hair from rugs and blankets. No vacuum required!
Check out a TikTok of the lint removers in action.
Promising review: "Love this tool!!! I bought it based off a TikTok hack I stumbled upon to help tackle pet hair. I have three cats who shed and sometimes I don’t think my vacuum picks it up very well. Well I purchased this and it removed pretty much all the hair in the areas I went over my carpet with. I cleaned an entire staircase without breaking a sweat using this tool and it picks up so much hair!!" —Kymberlianne Brackins
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $7.99.

Check out a TikTok of the car cup holder expander in action.
Promising review: "This thing is amazing, how did I survive before??!!?! My 32-oz metal water bottle had a cozy lil seat next to me on the passenger side for years. But then my boyfriend came along and stole her seat, so my poor water bottle would roll around in the back seat and knock into stuff while I was driving. Me and her go way back dude, so I'm glad I found a way to keep my manz and my trusty (knock off) hydroflask. He was gonna have to go tbh, gotta hydrate! (kidding, he's great too). I have a 2005 VW Jetta with the wimpiest cup holders, and this fits great. Could fit so many sizes and depths though — if you're worried about fit, don't be. This thing is super adjustable. I've had absolutely no problems with it wiggling or anything so far, despite the shallowness of my original cup"holders". Just make sure to twist it to fit tightly and you'll be set until ready to take it back out." —Alice
Get it from Amazon for $26.99 (available in black and gray).
6. A folding travel mirror when you've lost all faith in hotel mirrors. Enter this ~brilliant~ gem, which has three light colors and adjustable brightness settings, so you have the exact lighting you need to nail your makeup look.
Check out a TikTok of the travel mirror in action.
Promising review: "Absolute must for travel. Hotels and Airbnbs rarely have both good lighting and a good mirror to sit down and do your makeup at. With this guy though, you won't have that worry. The different lights are wonderful for different settings; the mirror is sturdy and lightweight. It does not feel cheap at all; in fact, it is the best travel mirror I have purchased. I am now using this on a daily basis, so I think it was an awesome find, not just for traveling but also for every day! It also is really slim and fits in your carry-on easily." —Alexandra
Get it from Amazon for $30.99+ (available in five colors).
7. A two-pack of drool-worthy Dan-O's seasoning because you deserve a powerful punch of flavor in your life. It's low in sodium and made with dried herbs, citrus, and granulated onion and garlic, so you can use it on basically any savory meal that needs some spicing up.
Dan-O's seasoning is a small business established in 2017 that gained popularity after taking to TikTok during the pandemic, where the company now has over 3 million followers with plenty of viral food content.
Promising review: "I became interested in this product while watching TikToks. I have been adding it to so many things. I use it in spaghetti, on fish, and one of my favorites is to add it to popcorn. My husband had to ask why my popcorn smelled like steak. I love the fact that it is low sodium as well. I am not a fan of extra salt and most foods already have plenty of salt but need some seasoning. This should be your go-to seasoning." —Heartcri
Get a pack of two (one original, one spicy) from Amazon for $13.99.
8. An adjustable weighted fitness hoop to get a fun workout in whenever and wherever you want! Reviewers love how well it works to strengthen the core and relieve back pain associated with sitting for long periods. To my fellow WFH peeps: Don't sleep on this gem!
Promising review: "Like everyone else, I saw this on TikTok and decided to give it a shot. Super fun to use. I'll admit it's difficult to start, but once you get the hang of it after a few minutes, it's super easy and fun. It is a little loud but nothing unbearable. The pieces are easy to add to, and the weight is not too heavy or light." —Richard Enriquez
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in three sizes and two styles/colors).
9. A reviewer-beloved ~secret~ popcorn salt for a one-way ticket to flavor town that'll put all other popcorn to shame. Everyone will ask for your secret and this one will blow their minds.
BuzzFeed Shopping senior writer Emma Lord say: "Our family recently unearthed this because beloved To All The Boys I've Loved Before author Jenny Han mentioned that it was her secret to delicious popcorn, and it may have just wrecked me for other at-home popcorn for the rest of my life. It genuinely tastes just as salty and buttery and savory as fresh movie theater popcorn. I inhaled it so fast that every single one of my organs lit up in mild alarm."
Promising review: "I am a person who will make myself sick eating buckets of popcorn (I have no self control). This has by far been my favorite 'TikTok made me buy' item. My at-home popcorn is now my favorite thing to make and I don't need to go the theater for popcorn. Very much worth the purchase and this will last me such a long time." —S Martinez
Get it from Amazon for $8.10 (available in three other flavors).
10. Some laundry detergent sheets if you're done spending money on wasteful plastic jugs of liquid detergent that lead to goopy messes. Once you discover this super easy, mess-free, eco-friendly alternative, you'll never look back.
Check out a TikTok of the Kind Laundry sheets in action!
Kind Laundry launched in the midst of the pandemic on a mission to reduce global plastic waste with their planet-friendly alternative to bulky, traditional laundry detergents.
BuzzFeeder Danielle Healey says: "Why did we ever invent liquid laundry detergent when sheet detergent is just so much better? It feels ridiculous that it's taken so long to make this switch. These squishy sheets are so easy to use, mess-free, and are MUCH easier to store than big ole jugs. Plus, the packaging is 100% recyclable cardboard and I still get the same clean I've come to expect from regular grocery store brands."
Get a 60-pack from Amazon for $19.90 (available in unscented and ocean breeze).
11. A cute octopus-shaped blackhead remover that'll help eliminate excess sebum and other impurities clogging your pores. After cleansing, rub it on your face to exfoliate and banish both blackheads and whiteheads.
Promising reviews: "I saw this on TikTok, it works great so far." —MarMarManuel
"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 $11.88.
12. A set of LED flameless, remote-controlled candles to create a relaxing ambience without potentially starting a fire. These battery-operated cuties have timer settings (two, four, six, and eight hours) in case you forget to turn 'em off. An award for this discovery might be in order!
Check out this TikTok of the flameless candles in action!

Wad-Free is a small business established in 2020 after the founder Cyndi Bray self-taught computer-aided design to create the pads.
Promising review: "THIS ACTUALLY WORKS!!!! I saw a TikTok about these and decided to order. Sheets balling all up in the washer and dryer has been a pet peeve of mine forever. I was super skeptical of these, but I tried it, and it works as advertised! It’s a little on the expensive side IMO, and that’s kinda holding me back from purchasing a second set, but they really do work." —StrangerThings
Get a set of two from Amazon for $19.99.
14. A strapless sweetheart tank for creating SO many comfy and stylish outfits, you may need to snag it in every color. It's lightly compressive while still being breathable enough to wear when it's warm out.
Check out a TikTok of the sweetheart tank in action.
Promising review: "True to size and perfect length. The color is the pure white I wanted and looks great with denim. The knit is soft and comfortable and still thick and stretchy, so it’s not see through. Length works great with my low rise jeans or can be tucked in for higher rises." —Cina
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in women's sizes XS–XL and 21 colors).

Promising review: "Saw it on TikTok and thought it would be a great bottle for work. It is very sleek and lightweight enough to carry when you have other items in your hand. I love the modern look and cleans very easily! The time increments really do motivate, definitely ordering again for myself and gifts. Fast delivery and very nice packaging." —Rosa
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+(available in three colors and two sizes).

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 13 colors).

Promising reviews: "Cute, compact, and convenient. I use it with TikTok and Kindle App. I knit at the same time as watching TikTok vids or reading so this is an amazing little gadget. It also wouldn't take up much room in a purse so I can travel with it." —annaangela
"I saw it on TikTok of course and just had to try it. I really like the pretty color I chose and it fits snugly over my fingers. It's especially helpful when trying to stay awake while putting the kid down for nap time! A completely unnecessary buy, but I'm very happy I got it!" —Dominiqua

Check out a TikTok of the portable Apple Watch charger in action.
Promising review: "First off, stop reading this review and go buy it. For the price, this little device is amazing for camping or traveling. Yes, there are other options to charge your watch, but those involve the cable attached to a power brick. This cuts out the cable necessity, so you can charge directly on the device — PLUS, it also works as a charger for your phone. You’ll just need to buy a separate USB-C to Lightning or Type C to Type C, if you have Android. Anyways, the build quality is great and is very lightweight. Do yourself a favor and go buy it." —Lenix.
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in colors pink and black).

Check out a TikTok of the Alleyoop Pen Pal in action.
Alleyoop is a woman-owned small biz that is focused on redefining beauty efficiency. Many of their products are compact and have multiple uses!
Former BuzzFeed Shopping writer Jasmin Sandal loves this thing: "I didn't realize I'd ever use a makeup product in my twenties that had the ability to transport me back to something I used in sixth grade, but here we are; and here I am using a multitool pen...for my face. I gotta say, I love the concept of the Pen Pal from Alleyoop! After using all of the functions (eyeliner, highlighter, lip liner, eyebrow pencil) and as someone who LOVES makeup but was applying as little as humanly possible during lockdown, I think it’s a great tool for anyone looking to streamline their routine. It's ideal to use for touch-ups come the end of the work day, or a subtle, minimalist way to apply makeup in the a.m. The brow pencil is particularly soft and pigmented, and filled in my eyebrows quickly. I just adore the ease of application of each product, and appreciate the universal, does-it-all-for-you concept. Plus, it saves me so much room in my already overflowing makeup bag!"
Promising review: "This is genius. I’ve been doing a lot of traveling and I like to keep my packing to a minimum. Not only is this convenient and travel friendly, but the color payoff is fantastic!" —Stefanie S.
Get it from Alleyoop or Amazon for $25 (available in three shades).
22. Heat-safe microwave bowl holders if you're tired of getting burned when you remove a hot dish from the microwave. You can even use 'em to hold the bowl while you eat and it'll keep it warm longer. There will be plenty of "Where have you been all my life?" vibes to go around.
Check out a TikTok of the microwave bowl holders in action.
Bonus — the insulation of these also keeps cold food like ice cream colder for longer (and helps prevent your fingers from freezing!).
Promising review: "Buy these for yourself and everyone you know. They are soft and fit a variety of sizes of bowls to put under them in the microwave and eat from. My kids love them. We bought some to gift to other people too, and I will get some for my son to use at college. Made of a heavy terry cloth that can be thrown right in the washer when needed. We used towels before under our bowls, but these cradle the bowls so are easier to hold. We bought some bigger plate sizes too." —Heidi J.
Get a set of four from Amazon for $19.99 (available in five color combos).
23. A pretty *and* hydrating yuzu-scented hand soap, which is just so fun to use that you'll probably never get tired of washing your hands — a rare hidden gem if I ever saw one.
Check out a TikTok of the hand soap.
Here's what BuzzFeeder Emma Lord has to say about it: "I've *also* been using this soap, and not only is it super hydrating for my hands (LOL @ constantly handwashing now and forever!), the yuzu scent is just calming and lovely, and I'm obsessed with how light and frothy the foaming suds are from the soap. The best part is that the bottle is totally reusable; you buy the dispenser once, and then you can get refills of the foaming soap for $12.50 from then on out."
Read Emma's full Yuzu-scented hand soap review here (it's #32).
Get it from Amazon for $18.
24. A portable Chill-O-Matic Instant Beverage Cooler when you refuse to sip anything but an ice-cold drink. This can take a 12-ounce can from room temp to fridge cold in one minute. Need I say more?
Check out a TikTok of the Chill-O-Matic in action.
Chill-O-Matic is a small business that specializes in beverage accessories.
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 minutes 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 while vacationing, 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 (available in colors black and white).
25. A "flaming" humidifier so you can set the mood with a ~fire~ gadget that also serves a purpose — it delivers soothing aromatherapy with essential oils and helps keep the air perfectly hydrated.
Check out a TikTok of the flaming humidifier in action.
Promising review: "I like how this diffuser kind of looks like a mini fireplace and it’s perfect for winter. I also like how long the water of this diffuser lasts — I always add my favorite essential oil in it when I go to sleep every night without worrying it will run out of water. I used to have insomnia and it helped me to sleep through the night with my relaxing essential oil scent, and it also worked as a humidifier." —Benny
Get it from Amazon for $32.69 (available in colors black and white).
26. A set of modular sheet pan dividers to reduce and maybe even eliminate your need for aluminum foil. Divide foods that require different cooking times and remove each section from the oven as they're ready. You'll be thanking your lucky stars (aka TikTok) for this one.
Check out this TikTok of the sheet pan dividers in action.
Promising review: "Brilliant. 100000% Recommend them! It lets me separate veggies by how long they take to cook so they are all ready at the same time and nothing is over/undercooked. I love these cheat sheets. They are a great tool for my kitchen." —yule
Get a set of four from Amazon for $29.99 (available in black and olive green).
27. An internet-famous Tushbaby hip carrier if you *literally* need to take a load off. If you have to lug your kid around, you might as well be comfy! This will help prevent back strain and it has plenty of pockets for your parenting essentials.

Check out a TikTok of the Tushbaby hip seat baby carrier.
Tushbaby is a small business you may have seen on Shark Tank!
Promising review: "This has been one of MANY items I have purchased thanks to TikTok, and I'm glad I did. Super easy to use, easy to adjust, and most importantly it helps with support tremendously. It comes with pockets and a place to hold bottles/sippy cups, which can be very handy. My 8-month-old weighs around 30-35lbs, and he's basically attached to me 24/7, carrying all day was killing my back and arms! Thank God for this invention, my arms and back can rest." —Jennifer Calle
Get it from Amazon for $84.99+ (available in four colors).

Promising review: "Fits perfectly in the cup holder on the side of my door, which is where I tend to hoard the most trash. If it ever gets dirty it washes easily. The lid comes on and off easily making it easy to just dump it every time I'm at the gas station. I saw this on TikTok and it turned out to be a great impulse buy." —Jacqueline Todd
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $14.99.
30. Body Glide anti-blister balm because you shouldn't have to walk around in shoes that rub your ankles raw. It works best when applied at the start of your day to create a barrier between your skin and your shoes!
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
