    29 Things For Anyone Who Wants Fast Results But Hates Spending Money

    Popular dermaplaning razors, bra extenders, wine stain-removing spray, and other products that'll make your life easier while helping you save money in the long run.

    1. A five-in-one aerator that'll instantly make even cheap wine taste better. But that's not all! It'll also 1) filter out cork and keep bugs and debris from getting inside, 2) make it easy to pour without splashing, 3) reseal the bottle if you wanna store some for later, *and* 4) prevent leaks whether you store it upright or on its side!

    2. A soothing and nourishing Glossier milky jelly cleanser — it'll help you save $$$ by working not once, but *twice* a day! Apply it in the morning to rejuvenate your skin, then again in the evening to remove makeup, oil, and dirt using the same mild cleansing agent as contact solution, which makes it truly ~easy on the eyes~ (no more stinging when removing mascara!) and ideal for sensitive skin.

    3. A shoe-cleaning kit here to make all your filthy kicks look like the day they were born — without the cost of replacing them altogether! Just a few drops go a long way and it does an amazing job banishing dirt and stains from all washable leathers, vinyl, nubuck, suede, canvas, cloth, etc.

    4. A "wrinkle release" spray if taking the time to warm up an iron in the morning is simply impossible and you aren't looking to splurge on a dry cleaning bill. It's also great for those days when you don't notice wrinkles until the last minute.

    5. A set of wood-colored markers designed to make scratched and dinged up furniture look brand new, because who feels like paying an arm and a leg for a new table when you can just zhuzh up the one you already have!

    6. A set of ~car wash wipes~ — now you can skip the professional cleaning and take things into your own hands. But if you shudder at the thought of breakin' out the ol' bucket and hose, fear not! These extra large, pre-moistened wipes require no such thing, and make it easy and convenient to accomplish anything from a full cleaning to quick touch ups — removing dirt, dust, bird droppings, road grime and more.

    7. A set of Schtick dermaplaning razors so you don't have to pay to remove peach fuzz. Plus, reviewers say it works painlessly and precisely, leaving your face oh so smooth without the irritation marks that most threading or razors leave behind.

    8. A set of bra extenders that'll give you an extra two inches of breathing room to prevent pinching and pulling. Why spend more $$ on new bras when you can just use these to extend the lifetime of the ones you already have!

    9. A pack of screen repair tape so you don't have to choose between replacing pricey screens, spending every night swatting away mosquitoes, or keeping the windows closed... indefinitely. These are easy peasy to just slap over top of any holes and tears so you can say "problem solved" with minimal effort and for *much* cheaper.

    10. A Vivienne Sabó mascara that high-end brand devotees swear by as a lower priced — but just as effective — alternative for anyone looking for defined, voluminous lashes. All it take is one coat, and reviewers love that they don't have to deal with smudges or clumps. Plus, it's lightweight, long lasting, and won't drain your bank account!

    11. A set of cleaning K-Cups you can pop into your Keurig just like you're making a normal cup of coffee. Then all you have to do is brew one large cycle with the cleaner pod, and one or more with just water (depending on how dirty your machine is), and you're done! Before you go replacing the whole thing, give these a try first!

    12. An Eco Tools Facial Cleansing Brush revered for how it gives pores a deep clean while lightly exfoliating your skin so you can maximize the effect from even lower end facial cleansers and give the pricey stuff a *hard pass*.

    13. An easy-to-use jewelry-cleaning pen — it'll make your jewels sparkle and shine like the day they were born without having to shell out for replacements.

    BuzzFeed editor Heather Braga has this and loves it. Read her full review of the jewelry-cleaning pen here!

    Promising review: "If I could give this 10 stars I would! I'm a fanatic when it comes to keeping my jewelry clean, especially my wedding set. I tried this product on my diamonds, Swarovski crystals, and Brighton jewelry, and the results are nothing less than amazing! This restored one of my Swarovski rings that I had not worn in years due to the cloudy color to a sparkling brilliance just like the first day I bought it! I cannot recommend this product enough! I just ordered additional wands so I don't run out! Home run Amazon!" —Kristina B.

    Get it from Amazon for $8.03+ (also available in multipacks and bundles).

    14. An incredibly effective and chemical-free charcoal and coconut oil toothpaste reviewers say will fast track your whitening process without having to spend money on professional services.

    15. A wine-stain-removing spray for those moments when putting your glass in a precarious position turns out to be a ~pour~ decision — especially when expensive furniture is involved.

    16. A Seche Vite bundle containing a base and top coat dynamic duo that collab to help protect your freshly painted nails from playing out their seemingly favorite activity: chipping immediately. Maybe now you can stop going through expensive nail polish like nobody's business!

    17. A roll of marble peel-and-stick paper so you can trick house guests into thinking you splurged on new, more expensive furniture when you in fact did no such thing.

    18. Some furniture leg replacements that'll bring outdated pieces back into style, because getting a brand-new dresser is not in your budget.

    19. A roll of *super* absorbent eco-friendly, reusable bamboo towels here to banish recurring paper towel costs from your budget... while also cleaning up messes way faster than when you were using the disposable stuff. Plus, they're incredibly strong, and you can just pop 'em in the dishwasher when they need a cleaning!

    20. Some Huppy toothpaste tablets — they come in biodegradable and recyclable packaging, so you can cut down on single use plastics in your routine and stop wasting that last bit of toothpaste that can never get out the tube. After all, you paid for that toothpaste, and deserve every last drop!

    21. A jar of O'Keeffe's hand cream to help anyone dealing with dried and cracked hands that are *begging* for relief — for under $10!

    22. An adhesive LED strip cleverly designed to cut down on the glare spoiling your favorite shows and making you wonder if it's time to invest in a new flatscreen. ~Spoiler alert~ it's probably not! These strips reduce glare, can help cut down on eye strain, create sharper images, increase color contrast, and are worth a try before you start justifying the cost of replacing the entire television.

    23. A John Frieda color-enhancing glaze capable of fooling everyone into thinking you just got back from a pricey salon appointment, when in reality you spent even less than your standard tip! This stuff adds a lil' extra shine to colored hair, enhances the hue of natural brown locks, and fills in damaged areas for ultimate smoothness.

    24. A plaque-removing tool so you can give your cat or dog's smelly chompers a deep clean without an expensive visit to the vet.

    25. A set of resistance bands with three different levels of tension ideal for upgrading your home workout routine without expensive classes or trainers. Use 'em to increase difficulty or to get the maximum effect out of shorter sessions if you only have time to squeeze in a quick workout!

    26. A pack of oil-absorbing tissues that'll help 1) rid your face of excess oils without stripping away necessary moisture, 2) control shine, and 3) soothe irritated skin — all using natural green tea ingredients. They're convenient to keep with you on the go, and are much cheaper than the fancy foundations you've been gritting your teeth and paying for in an effort to reduce those shiny midday T-zones.

    27. A mini knife sharpener so you can stop struggling to get your ancient dull blades to be the faithful collaborators they once were. This'll bring 'em back to life so your wallet can stop shuddering at the thought of purchasing a brand-new set.

    28. A pack of SweatBlock clinical antiperspirant wipes for anyone dealing with excessive sweat, because spending money on an array of fancy deodorants and doctor visits full of empty promises is truly the ~pits~.

    29. And finally, a pack of toe separators that makes it easy to help get overlapping toes back in line and provide relief from bunions without any pricey procedures. Simply slip the ring over your toes, and go about your day! They fit comfortably in any shoes to help you stand and walk with much less pain.
