Promising review: "So I have keratosis pilaris or goosebump-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 it once a week but I’ve just been using it every time I shower, which is almost every day. 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

Promising review: "These are great. They are a nice size with a good chain length. They make it super easy to know which chain to pull for the light versus the fan. They keep me from standing on my tippy-toes to reach the chain. I should have purchased these sooner." —Sandy H

Promising review: "We can finally toss the deodorant. These things work! I was hella skeptical, because my thighs are resistant to any sort of chafe defense. My thighs just love rubbing up against each other too much. But that crap has got to stop! I wore these while walking at least five hours at a music festival, and they stayed put without me ever needing to adjust them! I couldn't believe it! My delicate inner-thigh skin was preserved, not a chafe in sight. And they're so romantic looking that I didn't even care if someone caught a peek at that beautiful lace. Way sexier than my usual biker shorts. Love that I can wear dresses all day now without worrying about my thighs overheating." —OceanHips

Promising review: "I never usually write reviews but this is an exception. I've had my AirPods for over a year and when the sound quality was diminishing, I was afraid they had a short life expectancy and I would need to get a new pair! Even after using Q-tips to clean the AirPods out, I thought that was enough until my friend said there's stuff built up that's hard to see, but there was nothing able to get it out! Enter this product — it literally took five mins to clean each earbud effectively and instantly the sound quality was as good as new! Loud, clear, less trouble connecting to my phone, etc. I really suggest giving this product a try. SO happy I found a solution!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I can't believe I've waited this long to buy one of these. My eyesight is failing, including my depth perception, so wearing bracelets has been difficult unless they are slip-on. This jewelry helper is easy to use. Now I can wear bracelets again." —Cat Mom

Promising review: "This stuff is absolutely amazing. I was one step away from going to the dermatologist. I had severe dandruff that was so bad, I could shake my head and it would come off. With just a few uses per week, I got rid of all my flakes. My scalp also stopped burning from dryness. My hair has never been healthier." —Moo Moo

Promising review: "I have runner rugs on carpet and have tried heavy-duty hook-and-loop tape and other things to keep them from sliding around. Up until now nothing kept them in place for more than a few hours. I've had this on there for about a week and it hasn't slipped at all. It's not the easiest to cut through but it's worth it. Make sure to lay your sticky side down on your rug or floor before pulling off the paper side. I threw a few pieces away because it's so sticky, it curled up and stuck to itself. I thank the reviewer who said it works for rugs on carpet. May not have tried otherwise." —Raven

Promising review: "It’s one of those things you feel silly buying and then use every single time you wash dishes. I love how it gets all the sauces or greases from plates. It’s bendable at the ends so it can real curve to fit your dishes. Love it." —Danielle Hernandez

Promising review: "Like others, I have had morning headaches after even just one glass of wine. I saw this on Amazon, and all of the reviews were favorable, positive, and had lots of detail on how well this product worked. I decided to give it a try, and YES! It does work!!! I personally do not detect a change in the taste profile of the wine, and neither could my sister who also tried it one evening. I use three drops for both red and white. For the price, I would say give it a try because I am so happy that I can now enjoy a glass or two and not worry about the onslaught of an allergic reaction!" —Vellichor

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 makes you want to throw out all your old brushes. I will be buying these as gifts for all my girlfriends." —emmaline

Comfy Clothiers is a a small business that launched in 2015 with the mission to help people dress their best while staying as comfortable as possible in the process.
The set includes five fabric pants button extenders, five fabric hook-and-eye extenders, and three denim jeans waist extenders in a variety of colors.
Promising review: "Why didn't I get these sooner? These work perfectly! These extenders look simple enough but you think that they won't work or will show. The good news is, they never show once you put your belt on, and in my case, I've now got five pairs of chinos, three pairs of dress wool pants, and three pairs of jeans now back into my rotation! Buy these!" —JCI

Promising review: "I regularly used the *Tinkle* brand facial razors, which I thought worked well but I just used one of these razors for the first time yesterday and OMG the amount of peach fuzz and, to my surprise, dead skin that came off was shocking and oh so satisfying. Will definitely be stocking up." —I & S. Stark

Promising review: "THIS FOOT FILE IS LIFE CHANGING. I have lived with calloused feet for the last 15 years of my life from all through high school doing sports and now just doing everyday exercise. Through pedicures, other foot files I've tried, and basically everything...I have finally found my godsend of a foot file. My feet have never been softer and it has stayed soft for significantly longer than any other foot file I've ever used. I will literally never use another foot file, ever." —Sally

Promising review: "These work really well! I have a 14-inch mattress, so keeping the fitted sheet well secured has been a struggle until now. One of the best purchases I've made. I followed someone else's advice here of turning the sheet inside out, putting the fasteners on, then putting the sheet on the mattress. Made them very easy to use." —Jayne Voyt

Promising review: "I’m going to start off by noting that I hate flossing and have probably flossed a handful of times in my life — probably after eating popcorn because I was more annoyed than conscientious. Also worth noting, at 32 years old, I still have never had a cavity, but I know I’m pushing it. So I got these because they were cheap and looked cute and I thought maybe they’d inspire me to initiate a dental routine. I like them! They get into the gap between my teeth closest to the gum. Unless you have a gapped tooth, they don’t really pull all the way through like floss. The bristles are gentle and the wire is soft. The only negative is that I do feel a little guilty about all those disposable plastic handles. I did use one brush for all my teeth and will make the pack last a long time." —Greta M.

The seat gap filler is flexible and fits into most cars. The pack comes with two gap fillers (one for both the driver and passenger sides), a sticky pad for keeping items like your phone from sliding around, and an LED car light.
Promising review: "I have to admit, my expectations weren't very high. I thought it was more of a joke when my husband got this for me for Christmas. Little did I realize, it would be one of my favorite gadgets ever! I don't know if I realized just how many things went missing in my seat gap. It has really saved a lot of things from disappearing into that black hole. It was easy enough to fit into my car and it's soft! It's just like an extension of my seat, except it fits every curve of my seat! There really isn't another product that compares to this. That's why I gave it 5 stars!" —Tessa Forbes

Promising review: "Wow. Game changer. I have to change my shower curtain liner a lot because of a humid bathroom (yes, even with a fan on 😬). Though there are greater issues in the world, why wouldn’t you want to save yourself some time with these hooks! Not having to take the curtain off each time I change the liner has really been more satisfying than I had anticipated. Added bonus are the rings themselves; the balls that were added hug the shower curtain rod so they never pop off. Something I never knew I needed either. Love these!" —Jdbouchart

Promising review: "I’ve tried so many brands of pimple spots, and these are hands-down the best on the market. I’m a performer at Walt Disney World, and a clear complexion is required. Last night, I put these on a few acne problems (a small cyst, a whitehead, and a pimple I shouldn’t have picked and has been a bump for about three weeks now). I just woke up and am writing this review in disbelief. THEY'RE FLAT! Gone! All of them! I could cry I’m so happy. The packaging is also ideal… Because it allows you to conveniently and easily peel the stickers off without stretching them out or folding them back on themselves. Do yourself, and your complexion, a huge favor! Have these on hand for a stubborn zit when you really need help. Make sure you apply them to completely clean and dry skin." —Caitlyn

Promising review: "Works as advertised. Didn't realize how badly I needly these in my life! I have a media PC in my living room under my TV and directly across from the main couch. The LED is extremely bright and obnoxious, especially in low-light situations. One of these dimmed the LED the perfect amount and I can definitely still see that the PC is on, but without the annoying blue beacon that can be seen from space. The variety of options included guarantee that you should have the correct size to dim whatever LEDs you have. Highly recommend." —IPman501

Promising review: "I struggled for years to clean under clear silicone sealant in our shower. I used everything and have been frustrated that the shower didn’t look as clean as I’d like. Enter this product. Most of the affected areas worked the first time. I reapplied the more stubborn areas a second time and finally, the mold was removed. Now my shower is perfectly clean!!" —Drs. B

Promising review: "My husband and I just adopted our cute puppy, Winston, from the Humane Society. When we adopted him, his ears were unfortunately pretty dirty, but after we used this ear cleaner today, his ears are so clean!! I'm so amazed at everything it managed to get out. Our puppy's ears look so much better now! I would highly recommend this product to anyone with a dog." —Jerome F

Proof is a small biz founded by three sisters with a line of leakproof underwear and bras designed to help people live without fear of boob sweat stains, period and postpartum leaking, and incontinence.
This has become my go-to bra. COVID has made me INCREDIBLY intolerant of underwires, so I'm basically cutting them out of my life where possible. This bra still feels really supportive, with the added benefit of managing inevitable heatwave boob sweat when necessary. It was a real trooper during a hot weekend walking around Washington, DC. Even though every inch of me was sweating, there was no lingering wetness and my boobs were left feeling dry and comfortable all day, even when my sunburnt shoulders couldn't say the same.
Get it from Proof for $55 (available in sizes XS–XL and in three colors).
Promising review: "As whitening pens, these work perfectly! And for the cost, I personally think it's a good deal. I could tell a legitimate difference by the third or fourth day of using them. Super easy to use, convenient, and the whitening gel comes out really evenly for me (that was a problem for me with other brands). I've also had really bad pain sensitivity with Crest pens and a couple of others. But I didn't experience any pain with VieBeauti's. I'll definitely keep buying these for my at-home whitening treatments."—Blake

Each rach holds three bottles, and each set comes with two racks that can be stacked one on top of each other.
Promising review: "This was EXACTLY what I needed for bottle storage! It is perfect for almost every size I have: from shaker cups to the big 32-ounce Hydro Flasks. I cannot believe how well this worked in my cupboard. I'm thinking of buying more and trying them with kid's sippy cups and traveling coffee mugs! Only thing that was different than I expected (though I frankly could care less) is that the plastic looked almost smoked or gray instead of clear. It's in my cupboard so I do not care one bit, but if you're putting it out on a countertop or something maybe you care. I would buy again, and probably will!" —MGSFamily

Rocco & Roxie Supply Co. is a family-owned small biz creating top-notch treats, toys, cleaning solutions, grooming supplies, and more for pets and their humans. The company is named after the founders' family pets — a Labradoodle named Rocco and a tabby cat named Roxie.
Promising review: "We are an unofficial rescue home for dogs and cats. The latest dog came from Peru. She is an 8-year-old Chihuahua, and she was not house-trained. So during the transition period from untrained to at least my being trained to understanding her sign language, we have had our share of accidents. We also had some leftover stains from previous dogs in spite of our efforts with other cleaners. New or old urine, this cleaner is phenomenal. The stains sometimes disappear right in front of you. I have to mark the spot I am cleaning so I know where to go back to in order to apply the clean rag or towel to absorb any residual liquid. Don't know how many products we have tried. This is the very first one that deserved a 5-star review. So I just ordered the gallon bottle and will put it on Subscribe & Save as well. I highly recommend it. Obviously." —Gkayemarie

Bushbalm is an Ottawa-based small biz with a special focus on the pubic zone(s). Their result-driven collection of products targets such grievances as ingrown hair prevention, dark spot treatment, and razor burn relief.
BuzzFeed editor Katy Herman uses this to stay smooth after shaving:
"I just recently received a sample of this lovely stuff, which is from an Ottawa-based small business, and I have already seen a difference in how my bikini line looks after shaving! I always struggle with razor bumps in the down-there area specifically, but this oil helps keep it soft, smooth, and bump free! The brand recommends applying it right after getting out of the shower, and you can even use it to spot-treat ingrown hairs. I'm pretty ~scent~sitive to smells, and the tea tree scent is really lovely and refreshing (it smells like a spa)! I also love the pump-style dispenser, so I don't make a greasy mess every time I use it — which, from now on, is gonna be pretty much all the time. I'm sooo excited to wear swimsuits this summer without all the bumps and irritation!"
Promising review: "I had a stubborn wart on my right thumb that has been there for almost a year. Went to the doctor the first time to freeze it, but it didn't completely remove the wart so I decided to try the gel. The gel helped but not for too long and the wart came back (in a couple days). Long story short, I got these medicated bandages and the results are incredibly satisfying. Used these bandages every day for a week, and the next week my wart is gone. So far it's been a week after and I haven't noticed any growth. Highly recommend!" —J

This set includes four microfiber dusters and a tiered plastic base.
Promising review: "OK I'll be honest, I ordered this because of the price. After reviewing several other options and having been disappointed with previous dusters I've had, I figured why spend more money on something that isn't going to work? So I ordered the least expensive option but WOW does this little tool rock!!!! It's very easy to use and clean. It does a fantastic job of cleaning and dusting the blinds and gets ALL of the crud off of them. My blinds haven't been this clean since the day they were first installed. VERY happy with purchase." —Amazon Shopper
