An anti-fogging face mask for glasses wearers, toilet-cleaning fizz bombs, and a car seat gap filler so your phone never slips through again.
Plus, this is a heck of a lot easier to use if you want to drink at a restaurant without pulling out a "wine wand" and calling attention to yourself. Drop It recommends one to two drops for each glass of white wine, two to three for a glass of red, and seven to nine if you're treating the whole bottle at once. Once it's in the glass, swirl lightly for 20 seconds, and you should be raring to go!
Promising reviews: "Someone told me there was a way to relieve my stuffy head after drinking wine with sulfites and pointed me to a filter. A little more research led me to this product. Bought it, used it and was surprised. It worked! I just put two drops in a glass before pouring in the wine and enjoy. The stuffy sinuses did not appear after the wine as it usually did. Wish I would have found this sooner! —Think411
"These drops work. Be sure to follow directions and use accordingly. The drops do not affect the taste of your wine. Wish I had brought these a long time ago. No headache, stuffiness in your sinuses, or swollen fingers." — S. DeMitry

Promising review: "I bought this to hold my lunches at work. I teach and have working lunches with no opportunities to get to a refrigerator or microwave. I can fill my S'wells Eats (both sizes) with ice cream at 5:30 a.m. and they are still frozen at noon. Hot items don't seem to stay hot as well as the cold, but it just means more ice cream lunches. :)" —Mary E.

Promising review: "I don't know why I didn't get this sooner!! I was going to give up on cleaning our stainless steel cups and bottles until I found this. It works! I've tried everything and this is by far the easiest way to clean. All my cups look brand new!!!!" —teacherlover

Remember those cars that scooted around after you pulled them back to wind 'em up? This device is kind of like that. After you fill it with garlic, simply roll it around to chop up the garlic. It saves time and fingers. Plus, you can also use mince herbs, chilies, and other small ingredients in this as well!
Promising review: "I absolutely love this little gadget! I had a couple of the regular-sized GarlicZooms for a while now and loved their usefulness, so I decided to get the XL. I will never look back! The smaller ones can only handle a few cloves of garlic at a time. I tried four cloves with the XL and it could've handled twice that easily. It chopped them up so fast with no problems. I know there's a lot of 'I can chop my own garlic' folks out there and that's fine. I love garlic, but loathe chopping it. I hate the way you can't get rid of the smell from your hands. So this little gadget works wonders!" —Lindiana Jones

Promising review: "I admit that when I first saw this product I laughed. Then I found myself wondering if this was the answer to the grout in my bathroom that I cannot seem to get clean. As much as I would love to redo the bathroom, that just isn't going to happen right now. This seemingly silly product is actually quite amazing, and I wish I had found it sooner! While my grout and tiles are still far from perfect, I don't think I have seen it this clean looking as long as we have lived here. The best part is that this takes so little effort! Yes, holding a drill can be heavy and awkward. Yes, it is going to splatter the cleaning product around (duh) but it is still so worth it for those deep-cleaning projects." —Michelle B.

And if you've burned yourself on a curling iron more times than you can count, you'll also be happy to know this nifty product has built-in heat protection thanks to the barrel that keeps your fingers from coming into contact with the hot rod. There are multiple preset temperatures for different types of hair as well.
Promising reviews: "Thanks to arthritis, I can't lift my arm up all the way so I haven't been able to curl my hair in years. I absolutely love this! The curls come out perfectly and it super easy and super fast. And it doesn't get so hot that it burns you. It's lightweight and it keeps my curls. I have super-thick hair so that's not an easy feat! So very happy that I got this. I only wish I got it sooner!" —Clrm27
"Love it!! I have fine-textured hair, very straight hair. I have trouble not only curling it but keeping it curled. For example, the other day I left rollers in my hair for 45 mins and got a minor wave that fell out in 10 minutes. This tool is easy and fast to use, adds shine, and the curl stays." —Alexandria
Get it from Amazon for $69.99+ (available in six colors).
Have curly or coily hair and want a heatless styling option? These foam hair rollers are safe and comfortable enough to wear overnight and can be molded into different shapes to achieve the exact style you're looking for. They're popular with reviewers ranging from 3a to 4c hair types.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Maitland Quitmeyer, whose hair is a mix of type 2 and 3 waves/curls, swears by this: "You guys, with just one pass over my hair, it was almost entirely straight. My jaw literally dropped. Two more passes and it was pin straight, not fried looking, and just a joy to run my fingers through. I did my whole head of hair in about 15 minutes. I really can't describe how shocked I was by the results. There are four temperature settings, too, from 300 degrees–450 degrees, so you can customize the heat for your hair type. (I tried it on both the hottest and second hottest settings, and both worked for my hair — just make sure you protect your hair from the heat!)"

Promising review: "This blow dryer is a miracle worker. It took me 30 minutes to blow out my hair, which normally takes hours. It’s so easy to use, I wish I would have found it earlier. I would have transitioned to natural much sooner. I have 4c hair, and it definitely did the job. So happy I found this product — just make sure you use heat a good protecter." —Bella
Get it from Amazon for $39.99.
The formula comes in five different shades — black, brown, auburn, blonde, and clear — and you don't need to use much product to get natural-looking brows. BuzzFeed editor AnaMaria Glavan swears by Glossier Boy Brow and says her "facial caterpillars have never looked better":
"This magic bottle is proof that not all heroes wear capes. I used the wand to brush baby hairs in the beginning/middle of my brow upward, and then brushed the longer, toddler-like hairs at the end of my eyebrows sideways. And one coat was more than enough! Boy Brow does what exactly what the Glossier brand claims to do; it gives me a filled-in eyebrow that doesn’t look filled in. The finish looks natural, which is exactly what I wanted."
Get it from Glossier for $16 (available in five shades).
Promising review: "The eucalyptus is strong and it fizzes nicely. I drop one in once or twice a week and scrub the toilet a bit, and the scent lingers after flushing. Perfect for keeping my bathroom fresh!" —kd Bromley

More than 4,000 hook-and-loop micro-hooks cover the full 18-inch span of the snake. It's reusable! Just remove hair after use and clean with soap, water, and a brush. It's compatible with most bathroom drains without needing to take off the stopper.
Promising review: "I didn’t expect this to be professional grade or anything, but hey, for the price, this definitely did the job. Our bathroom sink was starting to drain really slowly, so I bought this. In less than two minutes, it had fed down the drain easily and pulled up two separate disgusting chunks of hair and soap scum. I wore cleaning gloves to clean that gunk off the snake, but it wasn’t too difficult. Drain worked perfectly after. I use it maybe once a month to maintain. Good value!" —KB

A lot of people compare it to the Magic Eraser, but in paste form, so even your weirdest, most stubborn stains will meet their match.
Promising reviews: "We have glass on our kitchen island, and around the sink, I have had this continuous hard water buildup. I have used hack after hack, and no other cleaner has removed the ugly white frosted buildup. After a little elbow grease, it came right off. So regret not finding this product sooner as the ugly white marks on my glass always caught my eye and it bothered me." —Tami
"I wish I had taken a before/after picture of my once-beautiful ceramic skillet, but I honestly didn't think it would work. All of the 'burn stains' inside and outside of the pan that I have repeatedly tried to clean came off with hardly any elbow grease. This pan looks like it's brand new again. This paste — albeit pink — has a very fine grit to it and 'magic.' After washing the pan, I thought I'd try this on it and was very pleasantly surprised: it removed every single burn stain. I simply dipped my damp sponge into the paste and began on a small stain and voilà. I'm not sure what's in it, but there's really no odor to it whatsoever. I wish I had bought this sooner and I'm certain I'll immediately stock up on it — it's that good. If it was able to clean up this skillet to the point that it looks brand new, I can't imagine what it couldn't clean. I can assure you that a filthy oven is no match for this stuff." —Karen

The Ronxs candle lighter is the one I personally use, and after upgrading to it about a year ago, I'll never go back to those disposable Bic ones. It's so easy to use once you get the hang of it, and the charge lasts such a long time, even if you're lighting candles on the regular.
Promising review: "Where has this been all my life? Burned myself twice last week using a traditional lighter and finally did some research and found this. So easy to use, rechargeable battery, and no more burns. The old long-neck lighters never lasted, and while the traditional lighters did last, I always had to use them with caution. Save time and money and prevent future burns, and get yourself and your friends one of these. Amazing." —Jay

The AeroGarden Sprout comes with a free seed kit, and you have your choice between a set of three herbs (Genovese basil, curly parsley and dill), cherry tomatoes, salad greens, or cascading petunias. You can also pick up one of AeroGarden's Grow Anything kits if you want to use your own seeds in the future!
Promising reviews: "We have been growing the herbs (parsley, basil, and dill) and all have been very successful. I have never seen so many herbs. We're very happy as my wife usually grows these outdoors in the spring and summer, and now we can do it indoors all year long." —Kevin Gilhooly
"I had never considered trying hydroponics but always wanted a little garden of my own. Now it is exactly one month since I set up this little garden. I enjoyed watching the herbs grow, and I was really surprised at how fast they grew too. My sister told me that the dill is fresh and good, and after tasting a leaf of basil on my sandwich, I was very pleased at how aromatic and delicious it is." —Dana

Promising review: "I have experienced cystic and hormonal acne for most of my adult life, and I honestly wish I knew of this product sooner. It’s extremely effective, and at the fraction of a cost I’ve spent on creams and other spot treatments in the past. They are not painful, and it’s oddly satisfying pulling the sticker off and seeing all the gunk left on the sticker (yeah, gross I know!). I still have redness after using these, but it is amazing how the bump is completely drained, nonpainful, and flattened after using these once overnight." —shae

MeUndies also offers a monthly membership program where you can earn 30% off a pair of undies (or socks, bras, and apparel, if that's more your speed). It can be a great way to keep your underwear drawer fresh with cute new designs!
Promising review: "My holy grail. These undies are perfect for me in every way. So soft, so comfy, my bikini area gets irritated from shaving with low-quality undies and these do not bother me at all. I can’t live without. The crotch isn’t too skinny for me and I love the high rise and super-cheeky fit. I will never stop buying these. Only complaint is I have had the seams come apart on two pairs (have bought probably 10 to12 total), but MeUndies sent me a replacement both times free of charge." —Lena

You can stick with the original clear formula if you only want the moisturizing benefits or choose from a variety of tinted shades if you like a little color on your lips!
Promising review: "Why did I not buy this sooner? I haven't bought the Cherry Balm Dotcom until now — and I'm obsessed! Not only is it just as soft and hydrating as the original, it actually gives my typically colorless lips a healthy-looking rosy, balmy flush! It's like blush for your lips. In my opinion, it is a completely underrated sheer lip tint (seriously, why do people not talk about this one more often?) that locks in moisture and makes your lips look actually juicy. Will definitely keep buying." —Luminocity

This portable IPS monitor has a mini HDMI and USB-C port as well as speakers, just like other external monitors. At 1080p and 60Hz, it's suitable for casual gaming as well (many reviewers are using it with their Nintendo Switch).
Promising review: "I wish I knew this portable monitor existed sooner! I have always dreaded having to travel with my laptop because I would be relegated to just a single screen for the duration of my trip. This monitor is really portable, connects directly to my USB-C port on my laptop, and worked right out of the box. It's true HD resolution and very clear and bright. I love it!" —DJChangez

The Drop Stop securely attaches to the seat belt catch and prevents any small items from slipping down below. It's a universal fit, and you'll get two Drop Stops for each side.
Promising review: "I just don’t understand why I didn’t buy this sooner. It’s one of those things that you’re not really sure why you need it but once you have it, you can’t live without. It saved my poor arm from having to dig my keys, cellphone, pens, french fries, hair ties, you name it, from between the seat gap. Seriously, it’s awesome." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "Absolutely love this cushion. My butt, back, and legs feel so much better while using this than just sitting at my desk chair without it. I wish I had bought this sooner. It is so comfortable! Feels like you are sitting on a cloud! This helped reduce my pain tremendously." —Virginia P.

These beeswax wraps are easy to wash as well — just wipe them down with a damp cloth or rinse in cool soapy water if they get dirty. They'll last for a year or more with proper care, and once you're done using them, they're completely compostable (you can also use them as a fire starter!).
Promising review: "I absolutely love these. Not only are they beautiful, but having the different designs makes it easy to remember what's what once it’s all in the fridge. AND they catch peoples eye, so I have ample opportunities to spread the word. I use these as a plastic wrap/Ziploc bag/aluminum foil replacement. Easy to wash with cold water in the sink. Yay! So happy :)" —Megan M.

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Emma Lord has owned the Dash Rapid Egg Cooker for upward of two years and says she's used it faithfully every week. "I especially love it while working from home — it simplifies breakfast because I know no matter what assortment of groceries I'm working with, there are precooked eggs to add some protein to it (I like mine medium-boiled 🍳). If my dinner is boring or seems like it needs a little extra 'oomph' to it, I'll throw in an egg from this too." Some reviews note that the alarm on it is a little loud, but the new models have significantly decreased the volume and sing a little song instead!
Promising review: "I have been wanting one of these for a while now. It was on sale so figured now was the time. I made hard-boiled eggs, omelet, and poached. They all came out perfect the first time and super easy. I am disappointed that I didn't get this sooner. The amount of time I could have saved." —Brent Carlson

Promising reviews: "My cats absolutely flipped for these felted balls! They are both catnip fiends, so I assumed these would be a hit, but I underestimated how much they'd love playing with them. A huge hit in our household!" —Danielle Taylor
"These are super cute, and I love that I can recharge the item with the good stuff in the tin; my cats are obsessed. I have four cats, and never have they all gone nuts for the same toy until now. I just ordered more balls and tea bags. Whatever is in this, the cats love. <3" —Jennifer Smith

Promising review: "Where has this been all my cat-loving life? Sticky rollers work fine for clothes, but this is the only product that has ever COMPLETELY removed all the cat hair from my bed. I have a long-haired 20-pound tabby and if you run your hands up his back a few times and fling the hair everywhere, it looks like it's snowing — he never stops shedding no matter what I do. After using the ChomChom, I can put on a black dress and roll around on my bed and not get a single hair on me. It's absolutely amazing. Everyone is getting one for Christmas, even if they don't have a pet. I don't care, it's THAT good." —Stephanie

Twist the bottom of the pen to dispense the fluid and brush onto the gem to clean!
Promising review: "Just buy it!!!!! My mom got a ring when she was 18 and wore it every day until I turned 30, and she gave it to me. I always just accepted the stone for the color it was. It had been cleaned several times by the jeweler, but never changed much. I bought this product on a whim after reading about it online. Not only did it completely deep clean my ring to the point of it being unrecognizable, but the brush gets into the nooks and crannies like nothing has before, which is important because both this ring and my wedding ring collect lotions and such like no other. My wedding ring looks amazing, too. My diamonds sparkle everywhere. My only regret is that I didn’t find this product sooner. WELL worth the price. I never write reviews, but this was warranted!" —Erika

This toilet seat attachment comes with everything you need to install your new bidet in under 10 minutes!
Promising review: "You will never ever go back to your days without a Tushy. My roommates were skeptical when I bought this, but every one of us is obsessed (or as obsessed as you can be with a butt washer). You will forever afterward feel that using just toilet paper is basically medieval. At first I thought I should get the heated one, but none of us even mind the cooler water (even though typically I hate cold showers, pools, etc.) so I think it really wasn’t necessary; the standard was a good choice. Such a good purchase. You will save enough money in toilet paper to make it basically free, and you will feel cleaner post poo than you ever have before!" —Mikayla
Get it from Amazon for $89 (available in three colors) and Tushy for $99 (available in nine colors).
Note that this blanket is designed to be oversized and will hang over the sides of your bed — this means there's more than enough coverage for two people and won't end up on one person's side every time. It's meant to be used "European style," replacing your comforter and your top sheet to maximize breathability.
Promising reviews: "My husband and I have been looking for a blanket that would be warm enough for me but cool enough for him at night. We finally found the perfect blanket for our bed! We are also both very tall and absolutely love the oversized nature of this blanket. No more middle of the night tug-of-wars! I will definitely be getting more of these in our future!" —Erin D.
"I'll be honest, this was a Facebook ad that I was a little upset I 'fell into.' But I am glad I did. 1) My husband and I always fight over the blanket, but this is large and thin enough and this is no longer an issue! 2) By some kind of witchcraft, he stays cool and I stay warm. 3) I was weirded out by not using our top sheet. I was convinced this was crazy, but it works!" —Latasha W.
"As for comfort and temperature...perfect! I’m 60, so hot flashes are still with me sadly! I’ve had the blanket for three weeks and I’m not kidding…it literally keeps me at the perfect temp. Not hot, not cold. I use it without the top sheet too. Felt weird at first, but by the next night it was all good. The blanket is pricey but well worth it. I did the payment plan, and it is great." —Barbara M.

Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping writer Taylor Steele has to say about the Always Pan: "As someone who neither enjoys cooking nor is particularly good at it, the Always Pan has made being in the kitchen feel like less of a chore. Having one pan that can do everything means I don't have to second-guess every cooking decision I make. I can boil and prepare pasta in it. And I can roast Brussels sprouts. And I can make the perfect fried egg. And I can steam dumplings. The best part is that everything slides so seamlessly out of the pan and onto the plate, which also makes cleanup super fast and easy. Both the amateur (read: reluctant) cook and the more seasoned chef will enjoy creating fan favorites and new recipes in the Always Pan!"
Also, BuzzFeeders LOVE this pan. Here's our review of the Always Pan, in which seven members of our team weigh in everything they love about it, from the nonstick coating to the versatility to the ~aesthetic~.
