Promising review: "I was skeptical at first but tried it…. Made cherry Coke slushy WOW!!!!! It’s a keeper. Great buy you won't be disappointed.

Each bladder holds a big 1.5L of wine, so I happily share with friends; and they are all wanting one too. I am thinking margaritas and mixed drinks at the beach this summer as well. It comes with three different bladders, so the sky is the limit. I have had no problem washing and air drying the bladders to refill. The purse is made well and has been very durable for me. This should definitely be on your wish list!" —Denise DiUbaldi

These were the first ones we bought to try out, and WHOA we were blown away! Super easy to for the 2- and 3-year-old to use, which means more fun for all of us!!

This comes with two ice trays so you can make two different flavors or just have plenty of ice on hand.
Promising review: "I don't usually make reviews, but I am so impressed with this that I had to! I make homemade cold brew/iced coffee every morning and go through a lot of ice. So I have been thinking about making the splurge and buying a countertop ice maker or something. I saw the video of someone using this on here and was like whoa...whaaaat. Bought it immediately. And I am the happiest of happy. The ice stays covered as it is freezing. And then you just open, flip it upside down, and push the cubes into the box at the bottom and put the lid back on! It also came with the cutest little ice tings and scoop. 100 million % recommend!" —Sarah Lackie

Check out a TikTok of the ice roller in action.
Promising review: "I was skeptical about this product. I wasn't sure how it was much different than rolling any other frozen thing on your body. I'm beyond pleasantly surprised. Not to mention, when I used it on my face, it leaves my skin feeling tight and wakes me up in the mornings. It also stays cold for forever but never sweats or leaves water behind. It's like magic. I also bought one for my mom who suffers from nerve damage in her arms and legs. I think it'll really help when she has bad pain days." —Jessica McRee

Promising review: "This color is very rich and bright. I barely squeezed out just a tidbit and it was way too much for both cheeks.

I love it and will use it whenever I wear makeup." —Jackie
Get it from Amazon for $13.48+ (available in two shades).

Check out a TikTok of the Chill-O-Matic in action.
Promising review: "I was so afraid of wasting money. But I didn’t. I love my sodas cold. But sometimes there’s not a cold one available, and waiting 30 to 40 minutes for one to get cold in the freezer is not always ideal. This will get your room temp can to fridge cold in 90 seconds. I let it run double that to get almost freezer cold. I wish it had a power cord. But I do appreciate the portability that the batteries provide. I can’t wait to try it out on vacationing, as access to cold sodas isn’t always available. All you need is a literally a little bit of ice." —G. Massey
Get it from Amazon for $29.99.
16. A set of flower hair clips because why would you wear a regular clip when you could wear an adorable flower one? This adds a cute little touch to any outfit and helps keep your hair out of your face. It comes in a pack of six so you can give one out to all your ~buds.~

They said they were especially awesome on windy days when others towels were blowing away if they were not sitting on the chair. The family was able to go to lunch or take a walk and not worry that their towels had been blown away and someone had then snagged their seats. Very inexpensive and functional clips." —TypeA

Check out a TikTok of the butterfly straws in action.
Promising review: "I love love the butterfly and how cute the straws are. Because it is made of glass, it feels very fragile. The bend is slightly hard to clean but overall love the cuteness!" —Michelle

Plus, it's so easy to make! Just add six tablespoons of your favorite coffee in the filter, fill it with water, and let it sit in your fridge for 24 hours. Then just take the filter out of the pitcher and enjoy your coffee!
Promising review: "I LOVE this product so much! I drink iced coffee on the daily, but the system I had just wasn't cutting it for me. I didn't know how to brew cold coffee at home (all we have is a Keurig, and there's no cold brew option), so I would go buy iced coffee from Dunkin Donuts every morning. I found out about this product through TikTok, and it is a GAME CHANGER. All you have to do is put coffee grounds in the filter, fill up the main compartment 3/4 full with water (I use water from my fridge), screw the filter into the lid, screw the lid shut, shake it a little to put the coffee grounds to work, and let it do its magic for 12-24 hours! This is probably the best investment i've ever made. You need this!!" —Carmen E

Promising review: "Love the skirt and how lightweight it is! Everything is exactly how I thought it would be. I’m wearing a 4X Plus and it’s almost exactly snug around my waist, and it’s not uncomfortable to sit or move around at all. It doesn’t have any stretch to it at all though, so just keep that in mind. I will definitely be buying it in another color though!" —Christina M.
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–4X Plus and 21 colors/patterns).
25. A cleverly designed retractable window sunshade because sometimes the summer vibe is just HOT and you need a way to survive getting back into your car that doesn't involve melting your booty on seats that feel like hot lava!

Check out a TikTok of the solar lights in action.
Promising review: "To say I love these lights would be a understatement. They’re easy to hang, great looking, bright, and they work amazingly!!! On a sunny day, these lights charge enough to stay on from sunset to sunrise. Yep! That’s right! They’re still on until sunrise. These are the only brand of solar lights that I’ve ever purchased that last that long (and I’ve gone through more than my share of solar light.). These are DEFINITELY worth the price. You won’t be disappointed!! Btw — this is the fourth set I purchased; I love them that much. The first set I purchased is over a year old and they’re still working as well as they did on day one." —Josie Elliot-Goforth

Check out a TikTok of the flower lounge set in action.
Promising review: "This set is the comfiest I own, and while it’s comfy you still look cute and put together (even though it’s a lounge set). Watch out though, it’s so cute that you’ll get compliments on it and people on the street will ask you where you got it from ;)." —ladina

Check out a TikTok of the sunscreen stickers in action.
Promising review: "Just used this product on a recent trip to Florida. I made sure to wash my skin before application and it lasted about two days on my skin without coming off. When out of the sun or behind UV glass, like in a car, the spot turns clear. As soon as you step into the sun it turns purple. If you use a sunblock it starts to become clear or semi clear. After being on the beach and having gone into the water a few times the spot started seeing purple and I applied sunblock again. In a minute the spot was clear again. So this is very effective in alerting me when to reapply." —RGTorque
Get a 32-count from Amazon for $25.99 (available in two quantities and a two-pack).

Check out a TikTok of the Kindle Paperwhite in action.
This version of the Kindle is incredibly versatile: You can see your screen even in the sun, and you can customize your fonts, size, and layouts.
Promising reviews: "I am in love this with this Kindle. I debating which one to get for awhile and then decided on this one because it is waterproof and can be read in the sun. I love being at the beach and outside during the summer so it was a must have for me. So far I have read more and had access to so many more titles than having a hard copy book. The lighting is just bright enough so that it doesn't hurt my eyes and is great for reading at night. The battery life has been great. For anyone contemplating getting this, it is worth it." —jennifer
"I LOVE Kindles, and this one is no exception. The warm light is in the pictures as yellow, but it also goes the other way to an ice blue! And the touch response is miles better than the older Kindle; a tap is almost instantly registered. If you are on the fence, just try it! You have my permission and recommendation!" —ErikJuun

Check out a TikTok of the snack spinner in action.
Promising review: "I bought these before they were on Amazon. I’m obsessed. My kids think it’s a game, and they’re so intent on eating all the food inside. Even my picky eater. As a mom who absolutely hates to hand wash things, I’m so grateful that a) the entire thing comes apart for washing and b) it’s completely dishwasher-safe. This thing is awesome. One of a kind. I own five right now. Will probably be getting more in the future for when the baby is old enough to snack independently." —Jordan Christman
Get it from Amazon for $28+ (available in three colors).
32. A Yonanas fruit soft-serve maker that ~magically~ turns frozen fruit into a delicious, creamy sorbet. Yes, that's right, literally just freeze the fruit of your choice, pop it in this machine, and soon you'll be devouring a delicious and refreshing treat.
Promising review: "I saw one of these in action at a friend's house like five years ago and thought it was just a made up memory, because making ice cream out of solely frozen fruit seems wild. But when I saw a TikTok about it I immediately went to Amazon and bought it. Literally this was the BEST decision of my life. I cannot believe still how amazing this thing is! It makes the creamiest, best-tasting fruit ice cream ever. It’s easy to take apart and clean, and super easy to use." —DMCKAY
