    Promising review: "I was looking at Fenty, Kosas, and other lip glosses at Sephora and then I heard about this Maybelline lifter gloss and decided to try this instead. Since I could get three or four different colors in this gloss for the same price as one of the high end gloss, I went this route after reading all the good reviews here. The reviews were right — this lifter gloss has the same kind of applicator brush, wear, and moisturizing capabilities as high-end glosses. My favorite color is stone — it's a great neutral nude that flatters a lot of different skin tones." —Z Fam

    Get it from Amazon for $6.97+ (available in 20 shades).

    6. E.l.f. Poreless Putty Primer to help prevent your makeup from breaking up throughout the day. Best of all? It goes on nice and smooooooth.

    Promising review: "My current primer arsenal includes both generic and name and brand products. With that said, primer is a luxury I'm willing to spend extra on if and when I find a product that really works. For the price point, I didn't anticipate how convenient and easy the application would be. A little goes a long way and you can definitely build up the coverage with this. There are no weird residual clumps that you get from silicone-based solutions. However, you will get that 'blurring effect' which is what I'm going for. This creamy blend is in a tub that initially appears white until you blend it into your skin. No discoloration, scent, or weird texture either. It also shipped quickly and arrived just enough time for an important rooftop event and while my complexion has its oiliness issues, my large pothole pores remained filled into the late evening in spite of the oil and perspiration." —NatasshaKnows

    Get it from Amazon for $8.50.

    7. A handy mandolin you can use to slice up your veggies in over 30 different ways — julienne, matchstick, dicing, you name it.

    8. A chainmail scrubber made for ridding your most-used cooking pots and pans from grease, caked-on food, and so forth. Reviewers also swear by it for caring for their cast-iron skillets!

    9. A ceramic curling iron sure to work some wonders on your hair and have you looking like you just paid some big $$ at your fave salon.

    10. A Wilton three-tier cooling rack, because you don't currently have one and are constantly burning your cookies on accident by leaving them on the tray for too long. This will help you get that ooey-gooey texture in the middle without burning the bottom and/or edges!

    11. A bath toy organizer so you never accidentally trip on your child's toys in the shower ever again. Reviewers say the suction actually works, and can be a helpful way to teach your child to put the toys back when they are done with them during bath time!

    Promising review: "Not only is there plenty of room for six rubber animals, complete foam alphabet and 10-digit numbers, and other random toys, this organizer actually sticks to the wall! I used windex on the wall just like the instructions explained, turned the hook, and voila! They stuck to a wall that's not exactly a flat surface. Also, I love this toy bag because it leaves corner tub space available for shampoo, conditioner, and soap bottles. In my house, that extra space is priceless! Don't look any further than this product. It is AWESOME."—Sara

    Get it from Amazon for $9.98+ (available in two sizes and pre-stocked with toys or by itself).

    12. Crafting With Cat Hair — a book you may think is a gag at first, but is actually a sentimental gift for cat lovers who have saved their cat's shedding hair over the years and want to make something special with it.

    13. A set of Pixar Uno, your favorite game with an extra-special Disney twist. What's not to love!?

    18. The Comfy, a blanket-hoodie hybrid that may be laughable at first glance, but in reality, is one heckuva genius idea.

    19. A roomy and sturdy Mega Bloks dump truck your kiddo can use to haul all their other toys from room to room (just as long as it's not to YOUR room).

    20. A pack of detergent cup holders so you can easily store the pouring cup *and* prevent drips at the same time. Another TRULY GENIUS contribution to the world if I do say so myself. 

    Tidy-Cup is a woman-owned small business started after the founder, Julie Reinhold, was tired of detergent containers dripping all over her laundry room floor.

    Promising review: "I had no idea I needed this until I saw it on TikTok. Listen, it’s the little things that matter. This little thing saves me the headache of a laundry room mess. I love it. Fits perfectly on my liquid detergent. No more messes!" —Luke & Christina
