We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
1. A set of wireless item trackers so you never waste twenty minutes desperately searching for your remote under couch cushions again. "I KNOW I LEFT IT RIGHT HERE." Spoiler: you did not.
2. A habit-breaking polish to finally put an end to your nail biting. I know adulting is super stressful, but enough is ENOUGH. It's time to grow out of this.
3. A storage bin for easily cleaning up clutter if you're one to throw things everywhere. Good news: all you need to do is toss everything in here. Now you can actually see what's in your pantry.
4. A pack of moldable glue, because this'll quickly and cheaply fix frayed chargers (unless you enjoy precariously perching your phone into that one position) *and* mend certain items you've broken in half. Your poor kid's toy will never be the same.
5. A wine stain–removing spray that'll prevent any night out from going sour. I'm not sure who trusted us with a glass of merlot, though.
6. An eyeglass repair kit (it's great for broken sunglasses, too!) so the next time you break for your glasses you can fix 'em right away, instead of having to make time to go to the optometrist. Which is great, because this seems to happen a lot.
7. A multi-purpose cleaning solution for treating just about everything under the sun: rust, burnt pans, stained tubs, worn-down sinks, even Sharpie marks (!!!). It's true there isn't a mess we haven't seen, but now there won't be a mess we haven't fixed.
8. A set of moldable mouth guards, because that headache you suffer from every day is from grinding 👏 your 👏 teeth👏 while you sleep. This'll prevent any further damage and stop your jaws from clenching too much.
9. A spackle kit that'll fill in any holes you've made in the walls (aka when you hung up pictures with abandon and then rearranged them AGAIN) quickly and easily — and most importantly get you that security deposit back.
10. An oven grip and splatter lid set so you can a) avoid burning your hand *ahem* a-g-a-i-n and b) catch boiling water from overflowing onto your stovetop. Meaning when you wander back into the kitchen to realize your pasta is in DANGER — it's already taken care of.
11. A tube of shoe repair adhesive for successfully performing small surgeries on your favorite boots that you insisted on wearing until they were worn to the ground. It'll mend rubber soles, close tears, and reunite you and your beloved solemates.
12. A pack of screen repair tape, because usually when you tear a hole in your screened window, your solution is to spend the next five years saying "now what?" Just slap this on and move on with your life — it was getting a little chilly.
13. A key-hiding case that'll prevent you from getting locked out of your house for about the umpteenth time. If you REALLY don't want to call your roommate for help again, you need this. For everyone's sake.
14. A handy device so you and your family can easily keep track of whether the dog has been fed. No more accidentally feeding them twice. A win for you guys, but a loss for the dog.
15. A powerful stain remover for erasing the evidence of especially tough accidents. I TOLD you not to eat soup in your bed. Who does that?!
16. A set of clip-on hair extensions, because a regrettable hair cut (I said LOB not BOB) shouldn't last more than a tear-soaked hour.
17. A pack of replacement zippers that'll let you mend broken backpacks, jackets, whatever after you pull a *smidge* too hard.
18. A wood polisher so you can get rid of any wear-and-tear your table or wardrobe may be starting to show after you repeatedly scratched it with your keys. No trip to IKEA necessary. This + an episode of Netflix = no more water marks or damage.
19. A Squeegee broom for efficiently mopping up big spills instead of desperately doing floor angels with paper towels until the roll is all gone.
20. A countdown timer outlet to avoid almost burning the house down after you leave your flat iron on again. This is the third time this week, please get it together.
21. A bun-making tool, because this'll swoop in and save the day after you not only woke up a full hour late, but spent the rest of the morning watching your hair twist and fall apart. No tears: bun-maker is here.
22. A pack of cleaning wipes specifically made for leather and suede shoes that'll undo walking through mud and salted sidewalks this whole dang season. Spending less than $10 on these > having to invest in another pair of boots.
23. A set of double-tipped pointed cotton swaps so you can fix smudged eyeliner or really any mistakes, instead of singing "hello darkness, my old friend" and leaving the messy wings.
24. A Mederma scar gel for diminishing signs of when *cough, cough* SOMEONE decided they needed their cookies so freaking badly they couldn't wait for the pan to cool down.
25. A carpet-cleaning shampoo, because this won't punish you for waiting six whole months to address the stains on your rug. Who was it that never took off their muddy shoes? Oh yes, YOU. Not "the dog" like you so boldly claimed.
26. A nourishing argan oil that'll undo damage left by bleaching, coloring, or heat-styling. Basically if you feel like you've killed your hair to the point of no return, this will swoop in and bring it back to life.
27. A lipstick-sized phone charger so you need not fret when you're in the middle of nowhere, need Google Maps, anddd you're on one percent battery. Lovely.
28. A cooktop cleaning kit for FINALLY tackling the burnt-on lasagna spill that's been living on your stovetop for the past month. It was a tragedy, I know, but it's time to move on.
29. A Scrub Daddy dual-sided scrubber sponge, because this'll get your pans back to squeaky clean even if you seared your chicken justttt a little too long. This is why we stick to takeout.
30. A set of Drop Stop gap fillers that'll catch all of the precious fries that don't make it to your mouth. If you pick them back up and eat them, I won't blame you. I promise.
31. A cult-favorite drain snake with a flexible barbed wand so you can put an end to showering in standing water. It turns out even when you use 10 pounds of conditioner (don't deny) clogged drains are avoidable —especially since this takes less than a minute to use.
32. A tub of heavy-duty cleaning wipes for conquering scary messes wherever they happened: even on your carpet. The next time you spill nail polish on the rug again (tonight), you can be done with panicked scrubbing before you know it.
33. A Tend Skin skincare solution, because dealing with razor burn after deciding dry shaving was a good idea shouldn't be a longterm issue. This'll treat bumps, ingrown hair, and inflammation in just a few swipes.
34. A pack of Goodwipes hygiene wipes that'll freshen you up in a jiffy if you hit the snooze button for an hour instead of getting up to shower. Your desk-mate will never be the wiser.
35. A multi-surface cleaning spray especially popular for car seats so you can remove the coffee stains from when you swore you could make that yellow light. You could not and made a mess. But this'll help you forget all about that.
