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 TubShroom first and foremost, because why don't you have this already?! Your drains are suffering! Stop showering in standing water!
2. A pack of food containers so you can finally get on the meal prep bandwagon. You'll be a lot happier eating homemade meals for lunch instead of the vending machine chips again.
3. A pack of interdental cleaners that'll help you FINALLY have a positive dentist appointment for the first time in, well, maybe forever. These are especially great for anyone who has adult braces or simply loathes the feeling of flossing. Their wire tips bend for easy access, while the brush heads remove food and plaque without the need for tricky maneuvering.
4. A weekly and monthly planner for making this the point in your life when you actually become more organized and productive — no more wondering if *today* is when you give that presentation. And because this is dateless, it's never to late to get started!
5. A pack of produce-saving bags, because this'll put an end to throwing away your fruits and veggies that you just spent so much money on at the grocery store. JUST EAT THEM (but now you have more time).
6. A tub of heavy-duty cleaning wipes for conquering scary messes wherever they happened — including on your carpet. Meaning: even if you're extremely lazy, your house can still always be sparkling clean.
7. A set of margin tabs so you can get everything from your tax folder (which you should have, my friend) to your work files nice and organized. Plus, you can write on these without fear of smudging!
8. A set of mesh laundry bags that'll prevent you from ruining yet another bra. Listen, no one's going to make you hand wash your delicates — just stick 'em in these.
9. A cutlery organizing tray for allowing you to essentially toss your forks into the drawer (this design definitely allows careless placing), but now you'll have a nice, neat drawer. Your mom will be so proud to see such a tidy kitchen.
10. A habit-breaking polish to finally put an end to your nail biting. I know adulting is super stressful, but enough is ENOUGH. Basically, its taste is *super* sharp and strong so your brain is trained to say "I DON'T WANT THIS AT ALL" every time you go to munch.
11. A wireless charging pad, because you are TOO OLD to be asking people if they have a charger. It's also time to outgrow trying to deal with frayed wires.
12. A pair of blue light glasses so you can read emails without a headache (at least from the blue light). These minimize ~digital eye strain~ to help you avoid any midday crashes caused by your glaring screen so you actually stay in the zone.
13. A magnetic key holder for never forgetting the most important thing of the day again. As some of us know all too well, calling the locksmith is EXPENSIVE. We need that money for takeout.
14. A pack of pimple patches, because this'll help you tackle adult acne once and for all by draining zits overnight and reducing the lifetime of your breakout faster than you can say pop. Being an adult means no 👏 more 👏 picking 👏.
15. A car essential oil diffuser so you can keep your car freshly scented no how many fries get buried under your seat. Having your own car is only great when it doesn't smell like 100-day-old fast food.
16. A pack of seamless underwear that'll make sure the killer suit you invested in won't be ruined by panty lines. These are a super-cheap solution to wondering if it's "just the lighting" or that this really is happening. Great.
17. A faux leather wallet with lots and lots of slots for putting an end to losing all your credit cards at the bottom of your bag (or worse, you don't know where). This'll essentially do all the organizing for you.
18. A set of plastic drawer organizers, because this'll declutter your bathroom, desk, vanity, really whatever needs the most help. Being a grown-up = knowing where your toothbrush is.
19. A bottle of white touch-up paint so you can quickly fix any scuff marks on your wall or furniture to make your space look as neat and put-together as possible. Tl;dr: you'll get your security deposit back even if you hung up a bunch of paintings.
20. A pair of elastic ballet flats that'll comfortably help you look polished at the office, minus the *sole*-crushing heels. You can commute in these, work in these, sleep in these, you get it.
21. A shower curtain with ~nine mesh pockets~ for keeping everything from your loofah to shampoo off the floor — binging Tidying Up with Marie Kondo every day doesn't magically organize your bathroom, but this basically will. Now you won't feel like you're back in your dorm every time you shower.
22. A pack of Shout dye-trapping sheets, because now you can throw your colored and white laundry in the wash together, meaning you'll stop wasting your money on fluff n' fold. You can do it YOURSELF — at least when it's this easy. These'll lock up loose dyes found in the water!
23. A roll-on aromatherapy stick so you can naturally relieve migraines and tension headaches, thanks to peppermint, spearmint, and lavender therapeutic grade oils. I think it's safe to say all of our heads hurt from time to time at work — now we have an easy way to help that.
24. A bottle of Garnier micellar water that'll easily remove makeup, minimize pores, and cleanse your skin, even if you "forgot" to wash your face again. Growing up apparently means not going to bed with makeup on anymore. Sad face.
25. A roll-up drying rack for saving counter space in small kitchens (hello, every apartment) and streamlining that pesky chore of washing dishes when everything can stay in one place. Aka you are NOT going to leave dirty dishes in the sink for 84 years anymore.
26. A mini knife sharpener, because this'll make those inexpensive knives you've had since freshman year of college suddenly useable again. Good news: you can cook now! I'm sure you're thrilled.
27. And a dishwasher magnet so you have a cute, non-aggressive way to communicate with roommates whether the dishes are clean or dirty — or it can serve as a much-needed reminder to yourself to run the dishwasher.
28. A duo of blind spot mirrors that'll FINALLY make you feel more confident while parallel parking — your parents were beginning to judge you for calling every time you needed their help. These'll make sure no tight parking job is too intimidating — three-point turns included.
29. A meal-planning pad with two sides: one to brainstorm weekly dishes and the other to keep track of groceries. Now you can actually make your own food, instead of wasting all of your paychecks on takeout. It even has a magnetic back to put on the fridge so it's almost impossible to forget to use.
30. A Swiffer wet and dry mop so you can rely on the easiest solution to picking up the dirt, hair, and other grime that's been living on your floor. If you hate cleaning, this will make it as painless as possible so you feel like you're living in an actual home and not a dorm.
Being an adult really just means you're allowed to do this:
