    34 Products That'll Help With Basically All Your Little Mess-Ups

    Don't just pretend it didn't happen. These can fix it.

    1. A multi-purpose cleaning solution for treating just about everything under the sun: burnt pans, stained tubs, worn-down sinks, even permanent marker mistakes (!!!). It's true there isn't a mess we haven't made, but now there won't be a mess we haven't fixed.

    2. A garbage disposal brush that'll save you from sticking your hand down the *eep* land of soggy leftovers whenever things start to ~really~ smell because yours truly decided it was fine to never clean. Luckily, now you don't have to pay the price.

    3. A set of Miracle-Gro spikes to bring your plant babies back to life after accidentally bringing them to the brink of death (let's blame the radiator). They're small and discreet, but can feed your houseplants for up to ~two months~ with micronutrients so having thriving greenery doesn't involve trial and error.

    4. A charcoal air-freshening bag, because this'll undo any ~lingering odors~ from when you let leftovers sit in your fridge for farrrr too long.

    5. A pack of moldable glue so you can 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.

    6. An address and password logbook to help you never spend another hour of your life tying to recover the password that you KNOW your computer — not you — simply forgot. And we can't prove we're not a robot. What was our mother's maiden name again?! This is so stressful — let this save the day.

    7. A set of smart plugs that'll let you control your devices with your phone whenever you're away from home — particularly useful when you can't remember if you turned off your curling iron. Crisis averted.

    8. A mini contact lens case to have a backup plan when you lose a contact midday. It features a solution bottle, tweezers, lens holder, and mirror to keep you PREPARED. No more spending the afternoon with one eye closed.

    9. A tube of shoe repair adhesive, because this'll help you successfully perform 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.

    10. A roll of eco-friendly, reusable bamboo towels so you can both clean up messes a whole lot faster thanks to the absorbent material *and* save money in the long run. Plus, these are good for the Earth! Everybody wins.

    11. A pan scraper for properly cleaning cast iron pans, burnt cookware, or tough residue without scratching the surface. No need to scrub for two hours after forgetting your precious lasagna was still in the oven.

    12. A wrinkle-release spray that'll make sure you still look crisp and clean, even after hitting the snooze button for an hour straight. Now you don't have to choose between being late in the name of ironing or looking messy.

    13. An aligner case so you have an alternative place to safely keep your aligners should you leave your first case at home — living in fear is probably getting annoying. You'll just need to keep track of at least ONE of these...heck, keep it at your desk to nix taking chances.

    14. A set of wireless item trackers, because you'll never waste 20 minutes desperately searching for your remote under couch cushions again. "I KNOW I LEFT IT RIGHT HERE," you always say. Spoiler: you did not.

    15. 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.

    16. A four-way cleaning brush for hiding any evidence of walking through mud and salted sidewalks this whole dang season. Spending less than $10 on this > having to invest in another pair of boots.

    17. 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.

    18. A duo of Rubbermaid produce-saving containers to drastically extend the life of your groceries if you're consistently guilty of buying more than you plan to eat that week. Your veggies can last up to TWO WEEKS in these bbs, which'll help cut down on how much you keep throwing out.

    19. A windshield cover, because this'll make your morning a heck of a lot easier after you spent the whole weekend *ignoring* all the snow building up on your windshield. Good thing you can just lift it all off instead of scraping until the cows come home.

    20. An eyeglass repair kit (it's great for broken sunglasses, too!) so the next time you break 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.

    21. A leak-proof stainless steel travel mug for preventing catastrophic spills in your car the next time you lose your grip. No more early morning crises before you've even HAD your caffeine.

    22. A pack of screen repair tape that'll quickly mend any tears, which is a lot better than your usual solution of saying, "now what?" for the next five years. Just slap this on and move on with your life — it was getting a little chilly.

    23. A wine stain-removing spray to prevent any nights out from going sour. But if you DO spill red wine (who trusted us with merlot?!), you'll be able to spritz away all your problems. Back to the cheese spread.

    24. A handy device, because now 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. A loss for the dog.

    25. A portable pill organizer so you can simplify keeping track of your pills (or vitamins!) and make sure you actually *remember* to take 'em. Each box is color coded, divided by morning and night, and small enough to put in your bag so you can reduce the risk of forgetting such an important part of the day again.

    26. A powder dry shampoo for making your hair look like it was just washed, even when you don't have time to shower in the morning (you just had to keep sleeping, didn't you?). It uses rice starch to absorb excess oil without leaving white residue, while seamlessly blending into every hair color. All you need to do is use your fingers.

    27. A carpet-cleaning shampoo that 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.

    28. A pack of Goodwipes hygiene wipes to freshen yourself 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.

    29. A spackle kit, because this'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, ensure you get your security deposit back.

    30. A set of double-tipped pointed cotton swabs so you can fix smudged eyeliner — or, really, any mistakes — instead of singing "hello darkness, my old friend" and leaving the messy wings.

    31. A multi-surface cleaning spray especially popular for car seats to 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.

    32. A squeegee broom for efficiently mopping up big spills instead of desperately doing floor angels with paper towels until the roll is all gone.

    33. A monthly bill planner that'll help you finally face your biggest fear: budgeting. Remember the last time you didn't want to think about your credit card statement and forgot to pay the bill? Not good. This'll break everything down (including a debt payment log, daily and weekly expense tracker, and budget worksheet) to make finances feel less scary. Phew.

    34. A set of Affresh dishwasher cleaning tablets to finally clean the current mess you've been pretending to "not see" due to tossing dirty dishes in, crumbs and all. This may be why our parents told us to ~rinse~ dishes first...well, now we don't have to, anyway.
