Promising review: "Of all the kitchen gadgets I own, we use this one the most! We eat an avocado almost every day, so I love that this does everything we need! It cuts it in half effortlessly, pulls the pit, and slices the good stuff. If you are eat avocados regularly, invest in this tool. It will save you so much time and effort compared to using several different things to get the job done. I've recommended this to several friends and they've all thanked me for it! As an added bonus I like that we can wash it in the dishwasher." —KmberlyB
Get it from Amazon for $9.98.

Bread Beauty Supply is a woman-owned business!
My colleague Kayla Boyd swears by this deep conditioner and said: "I recently started using Bread products and I really love how lightweight and easy they are to use. Since I have mixed textured hair that's been frequently dyed, it tends to get very dry. After using this deep conditioner my hair felt so much better and softer. In addition to that, the smell is A-MA-ZING. Definitely one of my new favorite washday products." Read more of her Bread Beauty Supply review.
Promising review: "I’ve been using this Hair Mask for a couple of months now, and I am honestly impressed! I have 'type 4' natural hair that is low in porosity. In the last decade I have tried a myriad of deep conditioners to nourish my dry, and fine strands. This one absolutely delivers! I love the whipped texture of the product. This mask delivers an extremely nourishing, conditioning, and luxurious experience to my strands! I’m sold on it!" —Sephora Customer
Get it from Bread Beauty Supply or Sephora for $28.
3. A six-outlet wall charger for your bedroom that's lacking in outlets and looks a little creepy when it's completely dark. It comes with two USB fast-charging ports, six spots for your gadgets, *and* a small night light.
Promising review: "Love this. I have many items to plug in now that I have to office at home. There’s plenty of room to plug in two laptops, a computer, a monitor and my Alexa safely. It’s a little bulkier than I was expecting but that is due to the room your items will need." —Jennifer
Get it from Amazon for $16.97.

Promising review: "The only negative with having a lab in your life is the shedding! It’s even more terrible during the transitional seasons. After reading other reviews, I decided to upgrade to this brush. So glad I did! I found basically another dog’s worth of hair and could have kept going!

9. A Tile Mate that'll help you find your iPhone at home, even if it fell under the bed, is buried in a stack of clothes, or is right in front of you. 🤦♀️ This little gadget will make it ring, so you can get to its location before giving up your search.
Promising review: This is my third year using Tile and I know that I couldn’t live without it. Tile saves me so much time as it enables me to find my keys, purse, and car by just pressing the center of the tile.

My colleague Heather Braga tried this cleaning pen and said: "This seemingly average little cleaning pen is filled with a high-performance formula that cleans jewelry like nothing I've ever experienced. It contains micro-fine cleansers, polishing agents, and a polymer that will make your gems so shiny they'll nearly blind you. I've used it on my diamond rings, but it also works wonders on my cubic zirconia earrings." Check out her review of the Connoisseurs 1050 Diamond Dazzle Stick.
Promising review: "My life has changed since I discovered this. I was previously using a toothbrush and found that it just wasn't getting all the gunk underneath my diamond. I have no idea what kind of magic is in this cleaning stick but my ring looks brand-new after cleaning. The bristles are soft and firm at the same time, allowing you to get all around the prongs and underneath the stone." —Ay
Get it from Amazon for $6.43.
11. A castle-shaped sun catcher so you can fill your dull living space with tiny rainbows and gaze at something ~magical~ while you're taking a break during your busy routine. You can even stick it onto a window too!
WishUponMagic is a small business based in California that sells cute Disney-inspired keychains, stickers, and home decor.
Promising review: "This sticker is stunning. I knew it would be pretty but never thought the effect would be as stunning as it is in the photos.

Get it from WishUponMagic on Etsy for $11.99.
12. Avarelle pimple patches to suck up all the nasty gunk inside pesky zits. Thanks to a layer of tea tree leaf oil and calendula oil, your pimples will be covered and less accessible during the process.
Promising review: "I’ve tried so many brands of pimple spots, and these are hands-down the best on the market. I’m a performer at Walt Disney World, and a clear complexion is required. Last night, I put these on a few acne problems (a small cyst, a whitehead, and a pimple I shouldn’t have picked and has been a bump for about three weeks now). I just woke up and am writing this review in disbelief. They're flat! Gone! All of them! I could cry I’m so happy." —Caitlyn
Get a 40-pack from Amazon for $8.49.

Promising review: "Love it. It really organizes all the utensils I have and saves me a lot of the space in the drawer. Instead of the regular traditional wide divider pan, it only takes less than half of my drawer space, so I can fit more things in a tiny drawer." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
14. A foot file so good at gently removing dead skin, you'll gasp at your newly soft heels that were once crusty, callused, and cracked.
Promising review: "This thing is pretty amazing. I was skeptical for sure, since I've tried all kinds of lotions, balms, and stone-based products, none of which helped my heels whatsoever. I've worn socks to bed for years, because if I don't the sheets hardly last a week before they have holes rubbed through them. My wife ordered this thing that looks like a mini cheese grater, LOL, and after two minutes — two minutes!! — of rubbing it on my heel, it's a complete 180. I never would've believed it until I tried it myself. This is well worth double what it costs." —LBK
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $21.99.
15. 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.
Promising review: "I love how portable this light is! As a freelance makeup artist, I carry a lot. This light definitely lightens my load *and* helps in dark spaces. I was pleasantly surprised with the option to have either warm light or cool light. I also love the iPhone holder so I can even capture video as I work! Just a heads-up, you need to 'twist' each section to make the stand stay put and you need to bring a plug that a USB wire can plug into. So worth the money!" —Veronica N.
Get it from Amazon for $18.70.
16. A rust stain remover that'll tackle the toughest red spots ruining your sink, drain, and shower walls. You'll save $$$ on bathroom repairs in no time.
Promising review: "Iron Out was literally spray, spray, and spray, wipe to spread the product evenly, and walk away. It started working almost immediately. I went and made a pot of coffee, played with the dog for a few minutes, and by the time I came back my shower was white! Holy wizardry! Seriously it was more work to clean the mirror over the vanity than to use this product."—Jessica B.
Get a 16-ounce bottle from Amazon for $13.16.

Need more goods for your self-care routine? Bubbly Belle on Amazon Handmade has a bunch of essential oils and more fizzy bath bombs (including ones with surprise rings inside) to help you have a relaxing bath.
Promising review: "I have been using bath bombs for years. I've used cheap brands, drugstore brands, luxury brands (Lush, YL) and more. This box gives all bath bombs I've tried a run for the money! The packaging was super cute and totally giftable. I was really impressed at the quality of the bath bomb itself too (I used Heal tonight) and I love that this uses natural essential oils. During this COVID-19 outbreak, I have had a lot of stress and anxiety and have enjoyed a bath nearly every night for the past week. This bomb gave me the most serene experience and they are HUGE! At least double the size of ones I've used before. Comparable to the size of Lush bombs. I will definitely purchase this box again when I run out and honestly it's a great price at a little more than $2 apiece. You really can't beat it!" —Heather H

Like magic, you dance and sway, headbang, and even drop and snap like it's your job. Because, well, I guess it is. You may be tiny, but you're mighty in the fun department." —Lindsey
Get it from Amazon for $6.79.
20. A set of plastic storage containers that'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. ✨
This two-piece set comes with one 2.5-cup and one 17.3-cup container with lids!
BuzzFeed editor Natalie Brown tested these storage containers — see above pictures! — and said: "On March 5, I put half of my fresh strawberries in the medium-sized container and left the other half in the clamshell container they came in from the store. And here they are 10 days later, on March 15! The berry I left in the original container's dehydrated and blemished, with wrinkled, crunchy leaves. But the produce-saver strawb's as fresh as it was on day one!" Read more of her Rubbermaid FreshWorks food storage containers review.
Reviewers also swear by these storage containers that helped keep their fruits and veggies fresh:
"I wish I would have gotten these sooner. I bought strawberries for my children, and then I forgot about them. I found them in the back of the refrigerator almost TWO WEEKS later, and they were still good. The real miracle is how long it keeps zucchini. Zucchini starts to get mushy in the crisper drawer after just a few days. Again, these miracle containers have kept it fresh for close to two weeks now." —Laura
"The quality of fresh produce begins to degrade after two or three days, but I'm not willing to shop more than once a week. These Rubbermaid containers really solved that problem. I purchased fresh leaf lettuce and raspberries, rinsed them thoroughly, spun the lettuce dry, and placed the items in the food saver containers. Eight days later the lettuce is still fresh. The berries remained fresh for five days until they were all eaten. Over the years, I would hate to calculate how much money I've wasted throwing away wilted or spoiled lettuce and rotted berries. The savings from discarded produce will pay for these containers quickly." —M. Hughes
Get a two-piece set from Amazon for $39.99 (also available separately in nine sizes).
21. A sponge-tipped concealer to seamlessly cover up acne, dark spots, and dark circles. It's packed with goji berry and Haloxyl that'll help minimize the appearance of puffiness and conceal irritated spots. Yes to working that makeup pro magic in minutes. 👏
My colleague Kayla Suazo loves this concealer and said: "There are few beauty products out there that I consistently go back to, which says a lot because I love everything that has to do with makeup. But alas, here I am, consistently finding my way back to Maybelline’s Instant Age Rewind Concealer. It’s just *THAT* good! I still don’t know how a $7 tube of concealer (I use the Neutralizer shade) beats out the more expensive ones I have stuffed into my vanity, but it does. It’s not too creamy or thick, yet it still gives solid coverage without the cake-y feeling. It blends incredibly well with every foundation I wear (not at the same time, LOL) — and I have a lot of foundations." Read her full Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer review for more (it's number four).
Get it from Amazon for $5.46+ (available in 12 shades).

I love mixing the Trini Chickpea Curry with leftover rice for a super satisfying weekday lunch. The black beans are TO DIE FOR." Read more of her A Dozen Cousins review (it's number 26).

23. A carpet cleaning solution you'll want to have on hand for messes made by your fur babies. Muddy footprints and pee stains don't deserve a place in your living room, especially when it's so dang hot outside and the last thing you want to do is tidy up.
Promising review: "Holy smokes, this is a miracle cleaner! My crazy dogs hate the rain and they have one spot that they always go on when they decide they are not going outside. I have cleaned the spot probably 100 times. I cleaned this area one time with this cleaner and my spot steam cleaner and it is completely gone! The stain and smell are 100 percent gone, not just covered up like before, completely and absolutely gone." —PLLane
Get it from Amazon for $19.97+ (also available in a larger bottle).
24. A John Frieda hot brush that'll give you high-quality blowouts in little time. Style both wet *and* dry strands, minimize frizz with its ionic technology, and easily detangle knots thanks to nylon- and ball-tipped bristles.
Promising review: "I am no professional hair stylist, nor do I have time to do my hair everyday (mommy of two) but I must say this blow-dryer curling brush makes getting ready so much easier. I like my hair to have a lot of volume (I have thin hair) and my layers to show so this look is easy to achieve. I just sectioned my hair in small pieces, used this tool from my roots to the tip, then from the tip curled up (inwards) and rolled the brush around and out to keep the curl. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a nice easy blowout!" —L
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in two sizes).

Promising review: "I have a whole room filled with cat toys that my cat is not interested in. It's funny how the least expensive cat toy I have makes him go crazy. He plays with this until he's panting like a dog and I have never seen him jump so high. I'm certain this toy will help him lose his belly. He loves it! I highly recommend it!" —Kwoo
Get it from Amazon for $2.95.
26. An Our Place pan that'll sub for so much cookware and double up as a cute piece of kitchen decor. This baby is a sauté pan, fry pan, nonstick pan, steamer, skillet, saucier, and saucepan in-one to make your cooking dreams complete.
Hate dripping meat juice or sauce on your countertop? You won't have to worry anymore, because it comes with a built-in spoon rest and an attachable spatula for seamless stirring.
Promising review: "This pan is everything! I went from making pasta in the basket to steaming broccoli in it and then finishing my meal in there. Then I forgot about cleaning it because I’m lazy and the nonstick cleaned up so easily. Also it looks really cute sitting on my stove all day." —Our Place Customer
Get it from Our Place for $145 (available in seven colors).
27. Toilet cleaning gel stamps because your bathroom throne should be free from nasty residue and rings. Stick one of these babies inside your bowl and enjoy a clean toilet for up to *12 days.* No scrubbing, spraying, or wiping required.

The next time you *do* give yourself a manicure, your digits will be in better shape.
Promising review: "About a month and a half of use has really transformed my nails! I’ve been using this three to four times a day (as well as the occasional gel manicure and some strengthening polish, no different from my prior routine). My nails have never been this long and strong — even when I picked off gel polish (bad, I know!). I really like the scent (slightly coconut-y) and a little goes a long way. I’m not even halfway through the tub and I basically dip the tips of my nails in and massage the balm into my nail beds. Definitely worth the money." —Madison
Get it from Amazon for $7.94+ (also available in a 2-pack and 3-pack).
29. Drawer organizers that'll spare you from the mountain of bras, undies, and socks in your dresser. This four-piece set contains medium and large cells with dividers, making it so dang easy to fold and stash clothes. Plus, you can arrange them in any order you want!
Promising review: "I bought these organizers for my socks and such, but three-quarters of them were used for my husband's sock drawers. They are not rigid, which helps with different sizes and thicknesses. Thank you so much for this product. It has made my life less stressful, being able to find what I need quickly and painlessly." —Patty H
Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in two colors).
30. An embroidered baseball hat for anyone who basically lives in athleisure. The strap is completely adjustable too, in case you want to wear your hair up. All you need is an oversized hoodie, bike shorts, and a cap with a cute pineapple or "As If" patch to complete the look.
Love other accessories like berets and fanny packs? This Brooklyn-based business also has you (and everyone else on your list) covered with their cute products.
Promising review: "I ordered the charcoal hat with the Great Wave patch, and it's absolutely gorgeous! Love the fact that the hat is adjustable. "One-size-fits-all" hats ironically NEVER fit me, LOL. But with a bit of adjusting (the strap in the back can be made longer or shorter), this hat fit me perfectly! Super happy with this purchase, and definitely planning on buying more." —Etsy Customer
Get it from WildflowerandCompany on Etsy for $20 (available in 10 colors and 79 patch options).
31. A Saucemoto Dip Clip so you can eat nuggets and fries without making a mess in the car. This baby easily clips onto a car vent and securely holds sauce containers and packets. The days of ketchup dripping into your lap when you drive are over.

Promising review: "I got these for my mom as a stocking stuffer for Christmas and OMG, she absolutely loves them! I kind of got them as a gag since we are always teasing her about trying to hold the ketchup and dip her fries or nuggets while she's driving, but this little plastic holder made her SO happy, lol. 😊 They work great for pretty much most sauce cups and it has a handy little attachment so that if the sauce comes in packets, you can pour it in there and still attach it to the air vent. My mom tells everyone who gets in her car about them and I will definitely purchase as a gift for more people!" —Summer
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $10.95+ (available in three colors and in packs of four, six, and 10.)

33. A ball of slime putty for the nasty debris stuck inside your tech gadgets. If you've given up on giving your calculator or laptop the clean of a lifetime, this moldable material will lift up pet fur and food crumbs from keyboards and more.
Promising review: "I was skeptical at first. I was afraid my keyboard would be all gummed up with yellow slime! The opposite, it cleaned it as good as new. Got all those dog hairs between the keys! No smell lingering on the keyboard or my hands. No sign I even used it except a clean keyboard. Kind of fun to play with. LOL." —Billy
Get it from Amazon for $6.77.
34. And a cool pill-removing, pumice-esque stone that'll help revive the clothes you always wear. Just brush this baby across your fave sweatshirts or sweaters and say buh-bye to bad pilling. They'll look *almost* brand new in no time.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Maitland Quitmeyer loves this little tool! She said: "Like many of you, I've been living in sweats and PJs during this almost-year of WFH full time. And it's made me revisit the state of some of my loungewear. Take for example, this college sweatshirt I wear all the time — as evidenced by the rather EXTENSIVE pilling all over it. So when I saw this pumice-esque sweater stone (it's made from upcycled car windshield glass — how cool is that?!), I decided it was worth the try. We've featured electric pill removers (mostly the fan-favorite Conair one) many times, and they really work. But sometimes you're looking for a little more detail or control — that's where this stone comes in handy. I was able to navigate around the contours of the logo on my sweatshirt with ease, removing pills using the corner or the entire flat bottom in a few quick strokes. It truly took no time at all — the sweatshirt was done in mere minutes." Read more of her Celsious Sweater Pill Remover review.
