Promising review: "This little ball is genius! It rolls around in my purse, which I live out of. It picks up a lot lint, debris, or even crumbs. It's easy to find with the bright pink. Just remove and wash and it’s ready to go again. The price was great and something I can use for years. If you live out of your purse, this a must-have!!" — dj3biggs

Promising review: "I hate changing out the liner on my shower because it meant I had to remove the curtain too. Not anymore! I saw this set of hooks in a TikTok review. Now I can swap out the liner with ease. The hooks also slide on the curtain rod very easily, no tugging." —Christina

Plus, no need to panic, parents — reviewers say these don't leave any sticky mess on the surfaces they're hurled onto, and the globs themselves are super easy to clean.
Promising review: "I waited over two months to write my review! My daughter is 4 and plays with these DAILY! YES they do attract dirt and hair HOWEVER they are so easy to rinse off it's not a big deal! We took these to a family gathering and ended up giving two away because they were SO loved! The two we gave away went to a 12-year-old and my 19-year-old brother. They discovered throwing them at the ceiling fan and watching them shoot across the room which was pretty entertaining! None of these have busted or ripped and they are definitely NOT gentle with them! I will definitely be buying more!" —Kindle Customer

5. Starface acne patches you won't mind wearing in public, since they're undeniably cute and made from 100% hydrocolloid, which flattens inflammation, absorbs gunk and bacteria, and stops you from picking. Treating acne while you present on a Zoom call? That's what we call *star power*, bb.
6. A Boon drying rack if your collection of bottles and accessories for your tiny human has gone from cute to chaotic. This little lawn will bring order to your drying spot and hosts just about any shaped item — *and* features a tray to collect all the water.
Former BuzzFeed Shopping parenting editor Chandni Reddy has this and raves: "Is it possible for a drying rack to be life-changing? Why yes, it is. I caved and bought this grassy patch after my kitchen started to look like an episode of Hoarders. This thing instantly organized my kitchen by creating a dedicated spot for baby stuff. Bottles, pump parts, sippy cups...this bad boy can hold a LOT (at least six bottles and four cups at once) and dries everything quickly. Did I mention it's a heck of a lot more cheerful and stylish than your regular drying rack?"
Promising review: "Newborn twins are a mess. They took over our house within moments of coming through the door. For this type A mama, it was a horrifying side effect of the two most precious things in the world. A friend gave us one lawn at our shower, and we promptly hopped on Amazon and bought a second to manage the sheer volume. The lawn and the accessories are a convenient and cute way to keep your bottles and pump parts organized. There is ample space in one for one baby's needs." —Lacey
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in three styles).
7. And a coordinating cacti brush set so adorable, it'll look great beside your new drying rack as you clean every hard-to-reach nook and cranny of your little one's sippy cups, bottles, and breast pump parts. Plus, even reviewers without toddlers mention that these are great at cleaning reusable straws and bottles!
This set comes with a bottle brush, straw brush, nipple brush, and a detail brush that all sit within a cup and easy-drain container.
Promising review: "I love this new bottle brush set; works well with a variety of bottles and sippy cups. I especially like the straw brush. The handy cup that it comes in is super cute yet very functional with allowing all the brushes to properly dry." —ZoeyBella
Get it from Amazon for $11 (available in other sets and replacements).
8. A chic and insulated crossbody water bottle bag from Calpak that's designed to give you pure hands-free bliss when you're carrying around your essentials. Perfect for the plane, beach, or just even on a day filled with errands.
Promising reviews: "I'm pretty much obsessed with this bag. It allows me to take the necessities, which are my iPhone13 Pro Max, 32 oz water bottle (which never fits in anything and fits in this with a bit of room), keys, wallet, headphones, and mask and still leaves room for any small items I may collect during the day. I also like that it has two handles and a crossbody strap. It’s also very adjustable and comfortable to wear while riding my bike. I got the plaid which is flipping adorable and will probably get black too!" —Calpak Customer
Get it from Calpak for $42 (available in seven colors and patterns).
9. A pack of detergent cup holders so nifty, they'll make laundry day go by a little quicker. Your housemates will thank you for making this purchase since these little trays not only hold your caps but also prevent any drippy mess.
Tidy-Cup is a woman-owned small business that was started by Julie Reinhold, who created this drip catcher as a way to stop her economy-sized detergents (which she loved) from dripping all over her laundry room.
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
Get a set of two from Amazon for $16.26 (also available as a pack of one).
10. An insulated tumbler that actually keeps drinks cold for HOURS. You'll probably want it in every marble and ombré design, because, I don't know about you, but staying hydrated on the reg' never looked so dang stylish.
Psst! This keep cold drinks cool and hot drinks toasty for hours. And it comes with two reusable straws and flip top lids!
Promising reviews: "Another 'TikTok made me do it' purchase. I love this tumbler. This is the most gorgeous simple tumbler you could get. It comes with two different lids, one for straws, and one for sipping. It also comes with two plastic straws but you can use stainless steel ones instead if desired. The cup keeps your drinks cold or hot and is fairly durable. Although the straw lid is not 'spill proof' it is fairly resistant. My 2-year-old loves to carry it around and use the straw, it usually doesn't leak if it's knocked over! Overall the wait for this particular color is well worth it and I plan to buy more!" —Sinaxis
"LOVE!!! This is exactly what we wanted — a cup that truly keeps cold drinks cold, with ice. It lasts 24 hours+. We have tried, at friends recommendations, Tervis, Yeti, and generic store brands and they — even Yeti!!! —were fails compared to this Simple Modern. The description states it has a copper lining. The copper must be the extra-special insulation that the others lack. Everything about it is outstanding: the color, the size, fit, feel, no spills or troubles, and ICE cold retention (most important feature). We haven't tried it on hot but since it's so trustworthy in cold, we're certain it keeps hot HOT, too." —Doreen Bowler
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in five sizes and 38 colors).
11. An unbelievably adorable display stand so your glasses have a designated place to live when they're not resting upon your nose. You can now bid the hours that turn into days spent trying to locate your spectacles adieu.
Promising review: "I usually store my glasses in their case. I don't know why that's such a hassle, but I like to be able to just reach for them. But they are also unsafe when they are just sitting on my desk. This little koala solves my problem! He holds my glasses securely and does it in the cutest way possible. Now I can sit at my desk, grab my glasses, and get to work with a smile on my face. And at the end of the day, I just leave them with my koala for safe keeping. Seriously, just get one. I haven't lost my glasses once since I got this." —Bianca
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in 11 styles).
12. A cute and comfy hoodie with a built-in eye mask that's ingenious for early morning commutes. Once you put this — otherwise known as your new en-route uniform — on, you'll wonder how you ever took the train or bus without it. Its plush fleece and oversized fit will feel exquisite, and the eye covering will let you get a catch a few extra Zzz's before your first meeting.
Pond Los Angeles is an Asian woman-owned small biz making luxurious travel products that'll make you feel like you're in first class, even if you're flying coach.
Promising review: "I fly a lot and am constantly trying to find a hoodie with a big hood to cover my eyes so I can catch up on some beauty sleep on flights. I saw this product on Instagram and knew it would be a game-changer. I was able to use it recently for the first time on an early-morning flight, and let me tell you, it is EVERYTHING I was looking for and more. It’s comfy, cozy, oversized, and the eye covers make you feel like you’re in a whole other world and not packed like a sardine on a plane. My over-ear headphones fit perfectly under it, and I got the best sleep I’ve had on a plane — EVER! Like other reviews have said, it is big, so size down if you want something a little more snug. I have been wearing it every day at home and can’t wait to get the black and blush ones!" —Heather G.
Get it from Pond Los Angeles for $102.40+ (originally $128; available in women's sizes XS–XL and four colors).

Check out 'em out in this TikTok.
This game-changing pack comes in a variety of 100 peel-and-stick dimmers shaped to fit lights on most electrical appliances.
Promising review: "Ingenious little idea. I suffer from migraines, so I know how a little LED light can irritate you in an otherwise pitch black room. This product does a great job of dimming those harsh LED indicators that EVERYTHING seems to have nowadays. They are neat, not unsightly." —Jarom A. Daszko
Get them from Amazon for $6.49.
14. An octopus-shaped blackhead-removing stick that's so cute it hurts — it's just a bonus that it's ridiculously good at removing excess sebum and exfoliating pores to yank out blackheads and whiteheads, too!
Promising review: "After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me, smells great too. Here's how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt is visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, then I used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like myself." —LuckLocust
Get it from Amazon for $12.50.
15. A dry food dispenser with a fun twist design and airtight lid to keep your morning (and perhaps, midnight) meal fresh and crunchy. These will fancy up any breakfast bar — and thanks to the many TikToks, are adored by kids and adults alike.
Promising review: "Pleasantly surprised. Saw this on a TikTok I follow and loved how sturdy and sleek this looked. The metal plates are heavy and good quality. It comes with a stopper for the bottom so cereal stays fresh for sure and the turn around wheel is also rubber inside to kind of seal the exit. Glad I purchased it and kids love it. Originally wanted to place this in the pantry but wouldn't fit so it's on the counter which doesn't look bad." —Islander
Get it from Amazon for $17.91+ (available in nine styles including a single, dual, or triple dispenser).
16. An ingenious (and adorable) scrunchie with built-in storage you can use to discreetly stash your cash, extra bobby pins, lip balm...whatever you need to keep handy when you don't want to carry around extra weight.
Hustle Sew Shop is based in Oregon and hand-makes goods like face masks and scrunchies.
Promising review: "Love this scrunchie! This is perfect for when I walk my dog; it fits my house key, Chapstick, and treats, and STILL holds my hair up! I will be buying more for friends in the future. Highly recommend." —Sarah Dickinson
Get it from Hustle Sew Shop on Etsy for $8 (available in 14 fabric colors and three zipper colors).
17. A touchless stationary vacuum that'll ta-da! make sweeping feel like less of a chore. This zippy thing sucks up any debris that comes close to it, so you can say "see ya!" to the days of awkwardly bending down with your dustpan to gather crumbs...only to lose half of what you swept.
An indicator light will turn on to let you know that the canister is full, and then you can remove the canister and dump the debris in the trash.
Promising review: "I saw it on TikTok and knew I had to have one. I hate cleaning but get annoyed with the clumps of dog hair and bits of things on my kitchen floor. I usually just vacuum my tile with the vacuum, which is a pain. This thing is so easy to just sweep things into, and it sucks them right up. Sure, it's more expensive than my actual vacuum, but I've only had it three days and have used it two times." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $111.99+ (available in six colors).
18. A set of UV stickers that'll amaze onlookers as their snazzy SPF recognition technology makes 'em turn clear once you've applied your sunscreen (an indicator that you're protected) and then change to purple when it's time to reapply. Each sticker is super thin and water-resistant, plus works for up to 12 hours.
Check out a TikTok of the sunscreen stickers in action.
Promising review: "After yet another bad sunburn even though I'm trying VERY HARD to keep sunscreen on, I bought these. First use was at Disneyland on a 90-degree zero clouds day. This helped so much! I kept an eye (as did my friends) on the dot so we all knew when to reapply sunscreen and not one of us got burned. I also used these on a weeklong hiking adventure in Utah where it was also in the 90s with an extreme UV index. None of us got burned, so all in all this is one of the best inventions!" —Catherine Shock
Get a pack of 16 stickers from Amazon for $15.99 (also available in a two-pack of 16 and a pack 48).
19. A pack of copper peptide–infused eye masks designed in the shape of sun rays to make sure your daily self care never slips. These'll leave you and your under-eyes *beaming* — quite literally — since they boost moisture with vitamins C and E, while caffeine and banana extract will work to de-puff and brighten.
And! They're 100% biodegradable, vegan, and cruelty free!

20. A waterproof touchscreen phone holder you'll get extra bragging rights over because this thing rotates, sticks to tile or glass, and can be used in the shower so you never miss a beat of Love Island or propped up in front of your sink as you do your dishes.
21. A set of Wad-Free pads invented to make sheet-washing day a little more enjoyable. If you've ever pulled out a tangled mess of bedcovers clumped together with other (sopping) items, you're going to want to listen up: These time-savers clip onto the ends of sheets to ensure everything *stays separate* so you don't have to do multiple drying cycles.
Wad-Free is a small biz that was launched during the pandemic. Cyndi, the founder, learned CAD (computer-aided design) to create the pads. And 5% of profits are donated to the American Brain Tumor Association.
Promising review: Promising review: "THIS ACTUALLY WORKS!!!! I saw a TikTok about these and decided to order. Sheets balling all up in the washer and dryer has been a pet peeve of mine for forever. I was super skeptical of these, but I tried it, and it works as advertised! It’s a little on the expensive side IMO, and that’s kinda holding me back from purchasing a second set, but they really do work." —StrangerThings
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $19.99 (also available in a pack of four).
22. A set of packing cubes you'll want to take a top-down shot of because you'll be impressed with how tidy *and* Instaworthy they make your vacation 'fits look. It's just a bonus that over 5,000 people love these for their ability to make packing, unpacking and retrieving belongings, and then repacking a buttload more efficient.
The set includes three different size packing cubes, one bra and underwear bag, one shoe bag, and one bag for your toiletries.
Promising review: "When I first became aware of packing cubes, I thought they seemed completely unnecessary and a waste of precious suitcase real estate. Then a friend gave me these as a gift to celebrate my impending trip to Iceland. I'm now a devout convert! These little devils saved me so much time and aggravation I still can't believe it. When I got to my hotel room, it took me exactly six minutes to unpack and put stuff away. Getting dressed in the morning was faster because used items were in cubes separate from fresh. Packing to return home was faster because, well, I was already basically packed. I just popped the cubes back in the suitcase and voila." —Robin Osbourne
Get the six-piece set from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in 13 colors and also as an eight-piece).
23. A pet water bottle, the compact way to make sure your doggo stays happy and hydrated on walks. Just throw this leakproof device, which has a feeder and dispenser for them to drink from, in your bag so that you're prepared for that next hike!
Promising review: "I saw this on a TikTok video and checked on Amazon and ordered it. My toy poodle loves it and drank out of it with no hesitation. With the heat wave we are having in California right now I want to be sure she is well hydrated. Before I leave the house I fill the holder with ice and water and I am set. Easy to clean and no spilled water in the car. Easy to throw in my purse and have it when we are out walking around. I know what people with dogs are getting for Christmas this year." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in two sizes and two colors).
24. A digital alarm clock that even a nonmorning person can agree is a beautiful piece of technology. The sleek mirrored design will look fab sat atop any bedside table, *and* it has charging ports so you can ensure you have enough juice for your late-night TikTok scroll.
Check this out on TikTok!
Promising review: "Even though we all use our phones as alarm clocks, I still prefer to have a clock on my nightstand that I can look at in the middle of the night. I had the same clunky radio alarm clock for many years and finally decided I needed an upgrade. This is modern, minimalist and really helped to declutter my nightstand. I love it so much!" —Mel
Get it from Amazon for $22.59+ (available in four colors).
25. A bug bite suction tool you'll have to keep close tabs on since everyone in your circle might want a piece of the action if they're prone to nasty 'squito bites — no matter the season. Arm yourself with one of these suckers to drain out the irritant and stop swelling and itching in. its. tracks.
This works on mosquitoes, bees, wasps, biting flies, sea lice, and more (although TBH, if this list of bugs gets any longer I may just stay indoors forever!!).
Promising review: "I bought this because I saw it on TikTok, and have been having issues with mosquito bites. Used it a few time to relieve itchiness and I am convinced it works! Have been recommending it to my family and friends. Read the directions and follow them carefully. Don't use this on your face or neck, or other sensitive areas. Don't do a lot of suction, just a little bit. And do it a few times if needed. Great invention!" —Joe
Get it from Amazon for $9.90+ (available in five colors and multipacks).
26. A hands-free wringer mop that'll have your head ~spinning~ with just how well it works. Reviewers note that this actually makes mopping fun...can you believe?! The automatic wringer is definitely something to write home about, not to mention the triangular shape of the mop which make it — get this — WAY easier to reach into nooks and crannies around your home.
And this comes with two extra microfiber refills that are machine washable!
Promising review: "I had had it with my broken basic mop and bucket. I tried to just get a dollar store Swiffer to get us by, but that wasn't cutting it at all. With three boys and a dog that makes his rounds on all the furniture and every exposed corner, I had to do something. After seeing a TikTok where a woman demonstrated this mop to clean her walls, and hearing my boss raving about it, I decided to click the Amazon button. Let me tell you, I HATE cleaning, I HATE mopping, but I LOVE for things to be clean. I was able to mop the entire house TWICE (Because it was that dirty. Please don't judge.) within an hour. A few days later I mopped the entire house again within 10 minutes because they weren't quite as dirty. On another positive note, my boys love the spinner and think it’s a toy! So, every time I get the bucket out my 10-year-old and 4-year-old ask to mop the house because they think it’s fun. MAJOR BONUS!" —Molly
Get it from Amazon for $56.80.
27. A reusable Chom Chom pet hair remover so you can finally sit on your couch in your all-black outfit *without* looking like you're trying to coordinate with the messiest individual in your household: your cute little fur baby. So long to the days of incessantly attacking yourself from head to toe with a sticky lint roller.
Check out this TikTok by @alexismae44.
Promising review: "Works like a charm. This is the answer to my dog hair prayers! I have a Shepsky and the amount of hair he leaves around the furniture and my comforter is overwhelming. He is brushed daily and still sheds like wild. I was constantly vacuuming and using a disposable lint roller. The Chom Chom is the best thing around to remove dog hair from rugs, comforters, car seats, sofas, pillows, dog beds and any object that has dog hair. You need to realize that it is small back-and-forth motions, not long strides, that pick up the hair. It easy to use, easy to clean and does the job! Not to be used as a lint roller on a person, just furniture etc. I have recommended it to everyone I know that has a pet who sheds!" —tonkers54
Get it from Amazon for $25.54.
28. Or! A mini lint remover to put to work on most surfaces (think: carpets, clothes, blankets, sofas) and can be taken with you on the go. Pack it in a tote or toss it in your car, for a schmutz-free look wherever you are.
Warning: Only use this for your sturdier stuff because it's a strong little device and might put holes in your more delicate clothing.
Check out the TikTok by @m.chandler_.
Promising review: "This lint remover wasn’t confusing or bulky like some others. You just run it down your clothes to remove lint, hair, and fuzz, and it does its job! I was worried it would be sharp to the touch but it’s not, which is great if you have little kids. It’s easy to clean — you just pick it out with your fingers; it doesn’t get stuck." —JLemons
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $7.88+ (available in two colors and two-packs).
29. A fridge fork you can attach to any jar of condiments to save you from having to make multiple attempts at fishing out slippery pickles — all because you just wanna satisfy your midnight snack cravings. This seamlessly spears pickles for sammies and olives for salads without the hassle.
Check out a TikTok of the condiment fork in action.
Promising review: "This is one of my favorite kitchen gizmos, and it doesn't take up room in the drawer! I eat lots of olives, and this keeps me from having to wash or get a clean fork when I'm in the middle of making a salad or just want a snack, and it makes spearing the olives easier, too. It comes with two sizes to fit any jar (even though if you need this, I feel like you probably get the big jars, right?). They are stretchy and easy to get on and off. I usually just rinse it between uses and then wash the whole set-up when I open a new jar (which is about weekly)." —Emily
