    13. A no-scrub weekly shower cleaner you can quite literally "set and forget" to maintain its cleanliness over time — once you apply it after a shower, you just have to wait 8 to12 hours and it'll quietly tackle the soap scum, grim, oils, mold, and mildew stains without any elbow grease from you.

    Before: a dirty shower floor; after: the clean shower floor

    23. A two-stage knife-sharpener, because those blades you bought back in the day?? They're probably super dull by now, even if you haven't noticed since it's happened over time. But as all the pros know, sharper knives = faster, safer cooking, so you can ~refresh~ them with this.

    28. A bottle of wood polish to instantly make your scuffed-up doors, hardwood floors, and furniture look so spanking new that you'll wonder if it's not actually wood polish but a time machine. Why get new tables or fancy professional restoration when you've got a $9 secret weapon??

    Lemon verbena-scented toilet tabs

    37. Plus a pumice stone that will make the inside of your toilet look brand spanking new, even if the rings have already thwarted your efforts with the toilet brush.

    38. A stainless-steel tongue scraper that a lot of reviewers bought to prevent bad breath, but ended up loving even *more* because it made their mouth feel so squeaky clean (and in a lot of cases, made their taste buds experience flavor a lot more intensely!).

    39. A shampoo scalp massager you can use in the shower to massage and exfoliate your scalp. Not only will it feel decadent, it'll help tackle dandruff, promote healthier hair growth at the source, *and* cut down on expensive shampoo use, since it'll create suds a lot more effectively.

    40. A nail polish ring holder to help you secure and steady the polish as you work on your nails, so it doesn't end up toppling over or dripping polish like some kind of opal-aquamarine Wild, Wild West. Once you get the hang of doing it yourself, it could save you a ton on manicures (plus, uh, replacing couch cushion covers 😬).

    41. A satin-lined Hairbrella that's got your back (and head) all year long — it protects your hair against rain, snow, humidity, and pretty much anything else the weather can throw at you.

    42. A pair of super-comfy period-proof underwear designed to hold two tampons' worth of period blood. Not only are these a great alternative to pads and tampons, they're also ideal for overnight protection (you can pair them with a pad if you have a heavy flow) and for people who are worried about ~leakage~ during sports or physical activities — I personally always wear period-proof undies when I go on runs on my period and it has been a MASSIVE godsend.

    43. A mini steamer for your clothes that heats up in literally a minute and a half, so you can skip the lengthy process of pulling out the iron and ironing board and being mega careful not to burn anything.

    44. A portable personal-sized heater ideal for anyone who wants to shake off the stuffiness of the indoors by sitting out on the porch or the deck for a bit.

    45. A smudge-proof eyeliner stamp so you can finally get the perfect cat-eye on the first go without having to ~wing it~ (read: wasting eight cotton balls, half a bottle of eye makeup remover, and all of the minutes you were setting aside to make your morning coffee).

    46. An internet-beloved time-marked water bottle designed to prevent mess — not only is the spillproof mouth piece super easy to access, but it the water bottle won't sweat even when the water inside is super cold (as much as we all love accidentally getting everything wet with our clammy hands).

    47. A set of super-comfy wax ear plugs that mold to the shape of your inner ear like putty, fully blocking out snoring noises from your partner (or yelling noises from your neighbors fighting over the Xbox while you're working from home 🙃).

    48. A broom for pet and human hair that can work on any type of floor, but is specifically designed to pull it up from the carpet deeper than even a lot of vacuums can reach, so you can go on an alarming but satisfying mission to the depths of your rugs.

    49. A set of discreet stick-on dress weights to keep your skirts and dresses from billowing in gusty breezes. These are designed with an adhesive that stays plenty sticky, but won't damage delicate fabric.

    50. A snap-on pasta strainer to free your pasta from its hot juices straight from the pot, and spare you storage space boot (is it just me or are colanders always in the business of being exactly in the way of whatever it is you need?). Psst — these are also a game changer for washing your fruit, too!

    51. A trio lasagna pan designed so all of your edges are so perfectly crisped it will taste like Remy from Ratatouille cut them with his own discerning, bougie eyes.

    53. A subscription to Blue Apron, an internet-beloved step-by-step recipe delivery kit that includes easy instructions and ingredients to make deeeeelicious meals that you might not otherwise have tried on your own — I'm talking everything from seared duck to honey-yuzu salmon to hand-cut papardelle.

    54. A game-changing kit of Crest 3D Whitestrips so you can channel Chip Skylark and belt out "My Shiny Teeth And Me" wherever you roam. It comes with 44 strips total, which is enough for 20 regular treatments and two one-hour express treatments. Reviewers mentioned seeing results from the very first use!

    55. Glossier's Boy Brow, a combo eyebrow gel and pomade perfect for anyone who hasn't been able to get their brows done in a hot second. You can swipe a few times through each brow for instant subtle, natural definition — the brush picks up just enough of the product in the tube each time that it's basically impossible to mess up.

    56. The Always Pan from Our Place, which is perfect for anyone who has big culinary ambitions, but needs a (highly functional!) nudge. This BuzzFeed-beloved nonstick pan is actually eight pieces of cookware in one, and is designed braise, sear, steam, strain, sauté, fry, boil, serve, and store. Basically, if you can dream it, you can cook it in this bb.
