    35 Products With Before And After Photos That'll Probably Make Your Day

    A top-rated dry shampoo, jewelry cleaning pen, and more products with before and after pics so good, they'll elevate your day.

    1. A surface cover to make your boring countertops look *way better* than they did before. Everyone will be asking, "did you redo part of your kitchen?!" when IRL, you just stuck on this marble-print adhesive and didn't get expensive renovations.

    2. Crest 3D Whitestrips that'll give your pearly whites a glow-up for a fraction of the price. These strips help remove coffee and wine stains that've turned your teeth yellow over the years and you only need to wear them for 30 minutes a day. Plus, they've earned over 49,000 positive reviews and have a 4.6-star rating on Amazon!

    3. A set of plastic storage containers because they'll help extend the life of produce for up to two FREAKING weeks! You won't have to toss fruits or veggies frequently and you'll spare yourself the hassle of multiple grocery store trips. Yes to keeping your ingredients fresh in the fridge when you need 'em for recipes. ✨

    4. A cleansing wrinkle cream that'll help get your doggo's skin folds squeaky clean. If your squishy-faced pup, aka a bulldog, Frenchie, or pug, is prone to itchiness and tear stains, this gentle paste will help remove grime and soothe irritated spots.

    5. A box of hydrating face masks: They'll help tighten your pores, clear minor breakouts, *and* combat dryness. Don't be alarmed if you start to look like a zombie when you put it on, it's just the mask getting to work on your skin! Once you take it off, your face will feel brighter and more moisturized.

    6. A selfie ring light because you need better lighting for your next TikTok video or Zoom meeting. This device will *get you glowing* and turn your dark room into the perf studio.

    7. A jewelry cleaning pen that'll get your rings sparkling again, thanks to micro-fine cleansers. No more dull diamonds or dirty scuffs on your fave baubles.

    8. A color-depositing conditioner because you don't have to use DIY hair dye kits *or* spend lots of money on salon appointments to upkeep your 'do. It's semipermanent and helps boost the vibrancy of color-treated strands every time you wash your hair.

    9. A cradle cap comb to gently remove flaky skin from your baby's scalp. It has two sides: a soft rubber brush to loosen up small flakes and a fine-toothed comb for hard-to-remove flakes. Slide this tool onto your hand and gently run it across your little one's scalp to help alleviate dry spots.

    If you notice signs of cradle cap (seborrheic dermatitis) on your baby's scalp, definitely check in with their pediatrician first before trying any treatments like the comb above.

    Promising review: "It makes removal so much easier and gives more consistent removal than my previous method of washcloths or just scratching the cradle cap off with my fingernails. It’s amazing, gross, and wonderful. My babe doesn’t even flinch when I spend 10 minutes clearing his scalp of all the goo. It seems to be soothing to him. I just apply baby shampoo, then brush a little with the blue brush. Then I slowly start to comb in sections all in one direction. Then I go back and forth in multiple directions. It’s shocking the amount of dead skin that comes off. I’ve even used it successfully in his eyebrows (he gets some cradle cap there, too). This is a KEEPER!" —ZMomUtah

    10. A wowworthy grout cleaner that'll probably make you believe in magic, because it'll remove years and years of dirt and grime from floor tiles.

    11. A conditioning oil to soften damaged cuticles. Its jojoba and vitamin E-rich formula penetrates the nail bed and cuticle area to help restore moisture and strengthen weak nails. No more dryness or brittleness when you want to paint your nails.

    12. A Mini Makeup Eraser because it wipes away lipstick, foundation, and mascara with JUST WATER (I repeat, JUST WATER!) — exactly like the full-size version. You'll be happy you didn't have to use a bunch of cotton pads, micellar water, or foamy cleansers to take a day's worth of makeup off.

    13. A drain clog remover tool that'll lift nightmarish chunks of hair from your bathroom drains. With a length of 19.7 inches, this baby fits down most sink and tub pipes and has claws that'll latch onto stubborn debris. You'll enjoy watching this little ~snake~ slide down and remove wads of hair that have definitely been blocking up your drain.

    Promising review: "I slipped the plastic strip down my shower drain and literally five seconds later, I was pulling up gobs and gobs and gobs of hair. I saved my prize hairball on the shower floor to show my husband because I knew he would be as skeptical as I was. It's a grisly, messy, smelly, and oh so rewarding job." —Amazon Customer

    Promising review: "It’s a miracle in a bottle. My German shepherd mix decided to pull a black fountain pen out of my purse and chew it to pieces on my beige carpet while I was sleeping — this cleaner lifted the stain and now it’s like the devastation my dog caused never happened! As soon as I saw it lifting the ink, I got back on Amazon and bought more bottles. I will never let myself run out of this. I’ve become that weird lady who goes around singing the praises of a cleaning product. No regrets." —L. Logan

    19. A bleach-based instant stain remover spray because mold and mildew don't deserve a hangout spot on your patio furniture, bird bath, or cute outdoor sculptures. It removes stains from the toughest surfaces *and* doesn't require any scrubbing.

    20. A Moroccanoil Curl-Defining Cream that'll enhance your curls, increase softness, and help keep frizz at bay. Add this multitasker to your routine if you're tired of using multiple products to improve the shape and texture of your curls.

    22. Vinyl peel-and-stick contact paper that'll give your kitchen appliances a modern update without pricey renovations. Measure the amount you need, stick it onto the surface you'd like to change, and you'll have a new "stainless-steel" fridge or dishwasher, even if they are decades old.

    23. Drawer organizers because all your bras, socks, and underwear are always in a messy pile. Each compartmentalized organizer will keep your drawers tidy so you don't have to conduct a search party for your missing boxers or thongs again.

When we adopted him his ears were unfortunately pretty dirty, but after using 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." —AmazonLurker
