1. A jewelry cleaning stick to quickly add some bling back to your old rings. You can use it on basically any of your accessories that need a good sprucing-up — and it's impressed over 26,000 reviewers.
Promising review: "This little pen brush is incredible! I wasn't sure if it would work well on my emerald engagement ring, since it's mostly advertised for diamonds, but I thought I'd give it a try. I have been wearing the ring since getting engaged in October, and even though I had it cleaned at the jeweler's in April, it just didn't seem as bright as it was when it was new, and I thought it would just always be a little cloudy. But after cleaning it once with the Dazzle Stik, I was blown away by the difference — it looks as bright and sparkly as when I first got it! I'm so glad I didn't buy an ultrasonic cleaner, since this is so much less expensive and easier and gentler. It took me less than a minute to clean, and I can do it whenever I want! And it's honestly better than when the jeweler cleaned it. So thrilled!" —KFray
Get it from Amazon for $8.89 (also available in various packs).
2. A tennis shoe cleaner that'll fool everyone into thinking you got some brand new kicks for the summer. In reality, they're just the same ones you've been shamelessly wearing since high school.
Promising review: "I have had my Nike Roshe runs for about a year now, and I don't go easy on them. I play sports and run in the dirt with them all the time, but I also like to wear them for fashion purposes. Pink Miracle helped restore my daily shoes to look like I just bought them — now I can wear them for even longer. Very pleased with Pink Miracle, I will buy it again when I run out of my bottle." —Romario
Get it from Amazon for $17.97+ (available in two sizes).
3. A screen cleaning kit to make your TV look as shiny and clear as the day you pulled the protective plastic off of it. You can also use it on your laptop and iPad, because let's be real, you probably haven't cleaned the screen since the day you bought them.
This kit includes a microfiber cleaning cloth plus the cleaning solution!
Promising review: "WOW!!! I am using an Asus gaming laptop for my podcasting and gaming sessions. My screen was extremely dirty with food stains, spit, and lots of streaks due to wiping these off the screen. I spent around $3,000 for this laptop and needed to salvage the screen with a strong cleaner. I bought Screen Mom a few days ago and this product made my screen look brand new. It's unreal how powerful this all-natural product is. My computer screen looks brand new!!! Amazing product and will continue to purchase." —juanning
Get the kit from Amazon for $19.97.
4. A leather cleaner so you can polish up and add some shine to all your furniture, shoes, or accessories that have seen better days. Your family will think you bought a whole new couch when they come to visit.
Remember to mix this concentrate with water before using!
Promising review: "My 15-year-old leather sectional hadn't been cleaned or conditioned in three to four years because I couldn't find anything that worked well without causing it to look blotchy. The color was also fading, and I thought it was a goner. After some elbow grease, the sectional looks great! It's now back to its original color without being blotchy. More importantly, the suppleness has returned. I can actually say that it looks as good as the day we bought it." —jellybean55
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in two sizes).
5. A dishwasher-friendly cage for all your baseball caps that are starting to look a bit too dingy to pass off as "vintage." Just pop it on the top shelf and let the dishwasher work its magic.
Promising review: "Works like a charm! It's given new life to my favorite baseball caps, some of which, I'm sad to report, have suffered tragically in washing machine incidences. Never would I have considered the dishwasher, but Ballcap Buddy said yes, so I tried it. Not only did my caps get clean, but they retained their shape. It's a perfect way to wash a baseball cap. Different styles, different colors, and materials all came out the same: looking good." —Mcharmony
Get it from Amazon for $12.75.
6. An all-natural universal leather conditioner — it'll let everyone know mama's got a brand-new bag! Except not really, you just cleaned the old one.
7. A mini bottle of touch-up paint to mask any scratches or scuffs on your walls and furniture... and to make sure you get that security deposit back.
Promising review: "Thank god this exists! Over the years, my sloppy 'hair-dying job at home' has left several spots on my white bathroom walls. This is exactly what I was looking for. If you're unsure which color to use (no need to be an exact match for this type of touch-ups), you can contact the company and they'll send you a color chart for free.
This is like a whiteout for the imperfections. I didn't want to have to paint the entire bathroom for some small spots, but those spots were bothering me for certain. Now I don't even know where those spots are anymore, and the walls look normal. This is such a lifesaver." —mrsj
Get it from Amazon for $14.95 (available in 12 shades).
8. An electric fabric shaver that'll get your cozy sweaters back in shape once fall rolls around again. It also works on couches, car upholstery, and just about any fabric that needs a touch up.
Promising review: "I had low expectations for this, but it's AMAZING! I have a couple of pairs of Lululemon leggings that had some pretty bad piling. Instead of getting rid of them, I figured it was worth a shot to fix them. This little device is seriously awesome. I am shocked at how well it took off the little fuzzballs that I thought was impossible. They now look in like-new condition. Where has this been all my life?! Get it!" —SRoss
Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in six colors and two charging options).
9. A 20-pack of cleaning erasers — they're more affordable than name brands but are still...um...magic, if you catch my drift. These little sponges use just water to lift away tough stains — and the results are downright soothing.
Promising review: "These babies have transformed and reformed my slobby life. My dog sitter thought I got a new sink and fridge. I have never had more fun cleaning in my life — wait, I have never had any fun cleaning. But these magical creatures make it so freaking satisfying. No toxic stuff. No fumes. Just heavenly cleanliness." —Jimmy Jim Ereeno
Get a pack of 20 from Amazon for $11.95.
10. An ink remover that takes the "permanent" out of permanent marker. The nontoxic formula also works on everything from chocolate stains to red wine spills, so the important bases are basically covered.
Promising review: "Had a blue ink pen that found its way into the wash, which also made its way through the high-heat dry cycle. When I say there was blue everywhere...I had likely $600+ worth of good shirts in that load, and I knew they were goners. Found this Amodex while doing some reading. Blew my mind but week-old, heat-set ink came completely out of most shirts. It does require a lot of scratching at the stain with your fingernail and a toothbrush, but this stuff truly works. I would recommend it to anyone." —Mike V
Get it from Amazon for $11.98 (also available in a pack of three).
11. A bottle of Bar Keepers Friend soft cleanser — it'll remove tarnish, soap scum, rust, and hard water deposits with ease. The original formula comes in a powder, but this version is premixed and ready to use!
Read our review of the Bar Keepers Friend soft cleanser.
Promising review: "Bar Keepers Friend should really be called 'Homeowner's Magician'! I purchased this cleanser in an attempt to revive our stainless steel knife set, which is a great moderately-priced set that has seen better days, and I'm extremely happy that I did. The cleanser not only took away the rust spots with minimal difficulty, but it returned them to their original luster! After cleaning our knives, I gave it a shot on our porcelain sink, which I typically have to douse in bleach cleaner to remove the stains from, causing the entire kitchen to be filled with noxious fumes... and it worked beautifully! The stains came clean, and it made the sink look pretty enough to eat off of." —Kat (Ferrari) Backa
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $13.70.
12. And a beloved interior cleaner that'll have your car back to the way it looked before that beach trip left it covered in dried, crusty sand.
Promising review: "This does exactly what I wanted - clean all the interior surfaces of my car while not leaving any residues, streaks, or strong odors. I first used this on my 4-month-old Grand Cherokee Trailhawk that was CAKED in dust (inside!) from a recent off-road adventure. The Total Interior cleaner cleaned all my surfaces — dash, screen, leather seats, etc. without leaving any streaky residues or strong odors, good or bad. After things settled my car looked and smelled new again!" –T. Porter
Get it from Amazon for $10.97.
