1. The cult-fave programmable Instant Pot Duo that should be paid six figures because it does soooo many jobs. A pressure cooker, slow cooker, yogurt maker, sauté pan, steamer, and rice cooker, what can't this thing do? Toss the ingredients in, hit the button, and this thing will handle the rest. Kinda like an adult Magic Mixie. Reviewers have made everything in this from pork ribs to New York style cheesecake. I'm fully convinced I need one now.
Check out BuzzFeed's full Instant Pot review.
Promising review: "There are so many people who say they can't cook, but I swear I'm on a whole new level of not being able to cook. This little appliance helps expand our menu and I have learned to do so much with it. I love how easy it is and how I throw everything in and it comes out done. No stirring and not many messy dishes. I still don't love it for meats, but I think that's just a matter of needing to experiment more with them. I seriously can't believe how many foods can be cooked in here! I found a recipe for a mac 'n' cheese that everyone loves. It's only five ingredients and only requires washing a cheese grater and the pot and it only takes 20 minutes. Before this I had never once made spaghetti with meat sauce. Now I do it all the time. Again, I only have ONE thing to clean afterwards. If I tried doing with without the Instant Pot, I would have a pan for the meat, pot for the pasta, and the strainer. It only takes about 20 minutes start to finish. Since I usually don't have to do many dishes with the Instant Pot, I tend to enjoy experimenting. My family is constantly surprised at how much this has changed how we eat. I love that when we have a last-minute neighborhood get-together and I can whip up a pasta dish and veggie real quick." —Aundrea

2. A container of Museum Gel, a clear, removable adhesive that'll help keep glass and crystal in place. So if you're worried about an earthquake rumbling the house and breaking Grandma's old china, this stuff will ensure that that neverrrrr happens.
Promising reviews: "Have a cat gremlin in your life? Tired of cleaning up broken glass? Finding decor knocked into your garbage disposal just a minute too late? Try this! I love my cat but God, he's a jerk. This has been a godsend for my sanity, especially while working from home. I've used it to adhere my pen cup to my desk, small planters to the counter, and, BONUS (and not cat related), my silverware divider in my drawer so it doesn't slide everywhere. This holds everything in place without the permanence of glue! I have only used this on my granite counters and a desk surface that I wasn't concerned about. I can't speak to using it on wood furniture, but so far I haven't seen any residue or oil spots." —Rynniex
"Used this to stop my silverware organizers and other drawer organizers from sliding all over the drawers. I don't understand how this stuff works but it's magic and you wont be disappointed!" —Stephanie S.
Get it from Amazon for $13.55.
3. A Baker's Edge brownie pan for any edge piece lover. No more fighting over the good pieces cuz every piece will be a good one! Crispy edges and an ooey gooey middle — *sigh* — I think I've died and gone to brownie heaven 😍😋. Come to the dark side, they've got edge piece brownies with DOUBLE edges.
Psstttt! You can also use this baby for other things! One reviewer even made pizza in theirs!
Promising review: "Because this pan is intended for the 'brownie edge lover,' if you aren't one, this is not the pan for you. Now, if you're still reading then you must have heard the rumors about this pan. Not being one that makes brownies more than once a month I just couldn't convince myself to spend over $30 on a pan. Now that I have it, I will never go back to a standard pan for brownies. It gives every brownie at least two chewy edges, it's totally nonstick, and there is no oiling or flouring necessary. Cleanup is easy. A little hot water, soap, rinse, dry, and voilà!" —Cricket
Get it from Amazon for $54.99 (available in two sizes).
4. A 12-pack of corner protectors so baby doesn't run into a table corner and get hurt. Save yourself a hospital trip and grab these. Honestly, I could use these for myself — starting to think I should baby-proof my apartment. Do I have a baby? No, but I am clumsy.
Promising review: "I swear these little 'lifesavers' — have saved me several emergency room visits!! I have a climber, jumper, and most of all runner. She is never watching where she is running so she runs into everything!! Thanks for the bumpers!!" —YogaButterfly75
"Love this product, not bulky and easy to put in place, and my toddler couldn't pull them off! Highly recommend!!" —vandi
Get a pack of 12 from Amazon for $8.98 (available in three quantities).
5. A bottle of professional-grade callus-removing gel that'll quickly remove all those calluses. Personally, as a dancer, gonna need to try this one out for myself cuz holy guacamole, my mind is blown.
Just presoak your feet, apply the gel, let sit for 5–10 minutes, and rinse! It's recommended you go back in afterward with a foot file just to make sure no residue or dead skin is left behind.

Promising review: "I have the driest heels and this is the ONLY product that has ever worked. Before I used this, my heels had some pretty deep cracks and now they're almost baby soft again. BUT please follow the directions...left it on my super-dry thick-callused heels for only three minutes and the calluses were literally melting off! Wonderful product! So glad I don't have to go soak my feet in those tubs at the nail salon anymore." —Kiki
Get it from Amazon for $14.49.
6. A genius guacamole saver to keep air out and prevent browning. OH EM GEEEE!! I could kiss whoever invented this. Guacamole for more than a day?! WE 👏 LOVE 👏 TO 👏 SEE 👏 IT 👏. Guac lovers, are y'all hearing the heavens singing hallelujah or is that just me?
Promising reviews: "I cannot believe this works so well! I'm a huge guac on toast person, but how unappealing is brown guacamole? Received this on Saturday, made a batch on Sunday, and it was still beautifully green and tasty six days later! My standard batch perfectly fits six medium avocados, plus the fixings. Happy girl here!" —Amazon Customer
"Works exactly as advertised! My guacamole has been in the fridge for eight days and it is still fresh and green. It looks and tastes like it did last week! You just have to make sure you really get all of the air out. It's a good size and can carry a large capacity of guacamole. I like that it can be used for a small or large amount and still keep it fresh." —Janice Phung
Get it from Amazon for $8.99.
7. Vacuum-free space-saving compression bags so that instead of packing seven outfits for your three-day trip, you can pack 14. Look, I totally understand, I always overpack too and you 👏 need 👏 options 👏 !!! You don't need to pay for another suitcase at the airport cuz these bags will make your clothes shrink itty bitty, meaning you can fit more stuff! Put your clothes in em, zip 'em up, roll the bag, and *voila* you can bring that other sundress.
Promising review: "These were the things I never knew I needed for traveling. They work just as advertised and are really useful when going on a trip. I always hate at the end of a trip having to mix dirty and clean clothes — a 'laundry bag' or plastic shopping bag never really felt like a good enough separation. These bags seal up and conceal the most stinky, wet clothes from your clean unused clothes. They are going to be one of my new necessities for my big family when traveling." —Sarbello
Get a set of eight from Amazon for $16.97.
8. An adjustable, collapsible, microwavable, dishwasher-safe, and Shark Tank-featured Pizza Pack container that'll hold up to five slices of 'za for an effective way to store that pie you ordered and plan to eat for the next two days. So get that huge pizza box that's taking up all your fridge space the heck outta here! This baby is shaped to prevent smushing and topping loss, has a vent for reheating, and five removable dividers so your slices don't get all stuck together. Pizza lovers rejoice because this thing is *genius*.
Check out the product on TikTok here.
Pizza Pack is a small biz that specializes in perfectly adjustable ways to store the 'za!
Promising review: "It's always a pain to put away leftover pizza. It never seems to work. UNTIL THIS PRODUCT!!! I am very happy with my purchase. It's easy to keep the pieces separate from others and you don't have a large bulky box letting your crust dry out. You can use it for one piece or several — it is very easy to expand. The best part is that it is very easy to clean. Storing the Pizza Pack when not in use doesn't take up a lot of space either. Try it." —B. Cirincione
Get it from Amazon for $25+ (available in six colors and several pack sizes).
9. A pack of motion-activated toilet night-lights so your kiddo can actually see the toilet when they've gotta make a midnight run. It's motion activated and will turn on and stay on for two minutes when it senses those little feet running down the hall so they don't have to stumble around blindly in the dark. And I mean, a glowing toilet's pretty cool. If I come over and your toilet glows, I'd be freakin' amazed.
Promising review: "I absolutely love this product. Especially because with a husband and a son, they tend to sprinkle on the toilet seat in the middle of the night. With the color set to any bright color (like white, yellow, green, or blue) it illuminates every single sprinkle on the seat! You will no longer have a bottom wet with pee in the middle of the night! When I purchased this I bought a case of AAA batteries thinking I would have to change them often (with six people in the house they get used often). However I have not had to change the batteries once in a few months! Also the sensor is super sensitive so it turns on as you come through the door, or even a little before. Just a great product all around. Definitely recommend for households with children, you won't have to leave your bathroom light in all night anymore either! #MomWin." —Angela
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $13.89.
10. A "Bug Bite Thing" that suctions bug bites to help reduce swelling, itchiness, and redness. Summer will be here before we know it, and that means the mosquitoes are comin' back and those pesky mosquito bites are about to be sooo annoying. Make sure to have one of these bad boys handy.
This works on mosquitoes, bees, wasps, biting flies, sea lice, and more!
Promising review: "This thing is amazing. It turns a week long battle with itching and pain from ant or mosquito bites to only a couple of hours. A lot of times after the first suction the itching goes away completely! This was a game changer for my son who gets eaten by mosquitoes even with bug spray on. Now his bites go away quickly and he’s not scratching at them, making them bleed, etc. I am starting to buy these as gifts! Highly recommend, especially for those with kids!!" —Reyka S.
Get it from Amazon for $9.90+ (available in four colors and in multipacks).
11. A bath toy holder with suction and adhesive hooks so that your bath tub can stop looking like a toy store blew up in it. Kids can still play with all their bath toys but now the tub doesn't have to stay a mess.
Promising review: "Best bath toy organizer I've ever owned! The hooks are super strong and it is large enough to hold all my kid's bath toys. I've never found one in a store that was big enough to hold everything. I love that it's a flexible bag/fabric so that it stretches to accommodate all the large and small toys. The two extra hooks were a nice bonus too. If you're tired of bath toys laying all over the tub, I highly recommend this organizer, especially for the price."—Jessica R.
Get it from Amazon for $10.99+ (available in six styles).
12. A pack of two tongue scrapers so your breath can be extraaaaa fresh. They're rust-proof and made of stainless steel, so they're sturdy and durable. You won't believe how clean your tongue is and how much of a difference this baby makes in helping to keep your breath smelling great.
Promising review: "These tongue cleaners are definitely stainless steel! You can tell how great the quality is just by holding it in your hand. I use this on my tongue, and I’ve noticed an incredible difference. My tongue feels clean, and the gunk is gone. It sort of grips the tongue which helps grab any left over debris. Be sure to use it over the sink as the debris and saliva will definitely slide off your tongue. To clean, simply rinse with warm water and allow it to air dry! I deal with a lot of dry mouth, especially since I use a CPAP machine to sleep at night. This tool is incredible at getting that bad bacteria off the tongue that shows a white cast and also creates sulfur compounds which makes your breath stink!!" —GreyElt
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $7.62+ (available in six designs).
13. A hypoallergenic makeup brush shampoo to help make cleaning your beauty tools a much less dreadful task. If you'd literally rather buy new makeup tools than clean them, this minimal effort shampoo is just as right for you as baby bear's chair was for Goldilocks.
This shampoo formula is cruelty-free and vegan!
Promising review: "After thorough, intensive scrubbing with dish soap, I thought I'd done an ok job on my brushes. FALSE! THIS! This magical, Hogwarts-crafted solution put any soap to shame. Minimal effort, incredible results. I had no idea my brushes could go back to their original color. Best purchase ever." —AC
Get it from Amazon for $6.99.
14. An octopus-shaped blackhead remover that'll lift all the clogged dirt and oil out of your pores. It's like your own personal Dr. Pimple Popper that totally extracts your whiteheads and blackheads. Goodbye Regina George pores.
Check it out on TikTok here!
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 set of two reusable Wad-Free tools you might recognize from Shark Tank that'll make laundry day a bit easier on you. Reduce drying time and prevent clothes and sheets from getting all tangled up in each other. Being an adult is literally finding loopholes to making life easier, and these certainly do the job.
Wad-Free is a small business that was launched during the pandemic by Cyndi, who had a wadding problem and no available solutions so she created her own!
Promising review: "Wow!!! You wonder if things like this really work and, well, I can absolutely confirm it does! First, I was impressed that the package came with two of the devices because I was only expecting one, so there was one for the fitted sheet and the flat sheet. Finally, I tried it out and my sheets not only did NOT wad up, they came out of the dryer feeling fresher, feeling more dry, and unwrinkled! I will be buying a set of these for each of my immediate family members and close friends! What a great gift!!!" —katy
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in packs of two or four).
16. A portable, microwaveable Rapid Ramen Cooker with heat-resistant handles that'll cook your noods in three minutes. A lovely little quick lunch orrr you can get all fancy and add whatever toppings you like in your ramen for a quick yummy dinner. Delish — now I'm craving ramen and I bet you are too.
Just add your noodles, fill with water to the water line marked inside the cooker, microwave for three minutes, and that's it! Perfect ramen noodles! Plus, this is made of high-grade polypropylene and is BPA-free and dishwasher-safe!
Rapid Brands is a Black-owned small biz that specializes in cookware that *flawlessly* cooks meals at microwave speed.
Promising review: "God's ramen cooker. This thing may seem like just an ordinary Tupperware, but I assure you it will blow that thin plastic garbage out of the water. It retains heat amazingly and does not bend or falter under extreme temperatures. I'm a college student and I have never felt such joy from making ramen in my small dorm microwave; for a 900-watt I recommend five minutes. Buy this product if you live and breathe air, because it is beautiful." —Theron
Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in 16 colors and six sizes).
17. A bottle of magic, I mean, Drop It just in case your hangovers are getting worse with your age like me (I say this with tears in my eyes). This stuff helps reduce the amount of sulfites and tannins (which can contribute to headaches) in your wine in just 20 seconds.
Once it's in the glass, swirl lightly for 20 seconds, and drink up!
Promising review: "This product is MAGIC! Wine was my adult beverage of choice for two years and then I suddenly developed a sensitivity out of nowhere in 2019. I couldn’t have even one glass of wine without getting incredibly sick for hours. I had to stop drinking it altogether. I had been wanting to try this product for a long time but was afraid to do so because if it didn’t work, I’d be out of commission for a full day. I finally took the chance and WOW. I wish I’d done this years ago. For the first time in almost four years, I was able to have a full glass of wine. It worked so well and I was so excited that the next night, I decided to have TWO glasses of RED wine, and it worked with that, too. No throwing up, no headache, not even sniffles. I was in disbelief. This stuff WORKS! I am so excited to be able to enjoy wine once again!" —Elizabeth M.
Get it from Amazon for $13.99.
18. Or a liquid IV electrolyte drink mix for when you're already hungover. It can also be used if you're simply dehydrated, after workouts or sweaty activities, and to help with muscle cramps. This stuff will help you rehydrate fast! Mind = blown.
I know it seems like this stuff would have fairy dust sprinkled in it, but it actually contains vitamins B3, B5, B6, B12, and vitamin C and claims to enhance rapid absorption of water and key ingredients into the bloodstream. You can learn more about when and how to use electrolyte drinks here.
Promising reviews: "Listen, I'm going to be straight up, I mostly use these to recover after a night of drinking too much alcohol and not nearly enough water. Yes, it definitely works for hiking, when it's warm, etc. However, I'm thinking some of you have come here because you want a hangover remedy. This. Is. IT! I've used this at countless birthday parties, bachelorette parties, or a night when the grocery store had BOGO wine. I drink one of the packets before I even start drinking, another friend of mine will drink hers after she drank but before she goes to bed, and another friend takes it the next morning. All three of us seem to have good results. Some people are balking at the flavor. I've tried this and their lemon lime version, and I give a slight advantage to this one. Look, it's full of electrolytes so it's not going to taste like Sunny D. Just guzzle it and be thankful you won't feel like death." —Jen PDX
"These aren't the best tasting hydration packets by far but these little packets are magical. Straight up witchcraft. Slurp one of these down before bed — you could be drunk, sleep for three hours, and wake up feeling better than usual EVERY TIME. Still blows my mind every time I use them." —krisy
Get 16 packets for $24.66 (available in three quantities).
19. An earbud cleaning pen because every time you go to the gym, you realize just how grossly filthy your headphones are. You'll be hearing adlibs you've never heard before! Yes, Ariana Grande has always said "yuhhh" right there in that song.
Promising review: "Saw these on a TikTok video and took a chance. I ordered three for different family members and boy am I glad I did! This product is fantastic! It does exactly what it says it will do. The brush is phenomenal in cleaning out the little grates on the speakers of my phone and AirPods. There is a picker that you can use to get big chunky ear wax out of your ear pieces and the long skinny wand thing reaches down into my charging case and gets all the junk out of there. This is a win-win-win!" —JMilwaukee
Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in three colors).
20. A veggie chopper for my friends who are like me and can't dice a vegetable without a potential trip to the hospital. True story, this is in my Amazon cart cuz I cut through my finger cutting yams last week. But anyway, if chopping those veggies seems too time consuming, this will save you sooo much time. Spiral, slice and dice with this super convenient, dishwasher-safe kitchen gadget.
A plus is that this baby can slice through a potato BUT remember how sharp that means it is and BE CAREFUL touching the blades! You'll get five different blades including a small dicer, large dicer, slicer, grater, and a julienne blade.
Promising review: "Cooking has completely changed with this product. It's a must have in the kitchen for me now. It makes chopping and slicing vegetables/etc, wayyyyy faster and easier. The blades are VERY sharp, so be careful when using, I have cut myself just washing it. But it's great." —Helen B.
Get it from Amazon for $39.98+ (available in five styles).
21. A ChomChom pet hair remover roller that'll pick up fur and lock it inside the roller for an easy peasy cleanup. And this reusable baby doesn't lose its effectiveness after use!
Promising review: "I have a golden retriever and the shedding is out of control. My fabric sofa is constantly covered in hair and I finally decided to try this after reading an article about popular TikTok products. The reviews do not lie, this thing works magic!! I wish I had taken a before and after picture because the difference is noticeable. I watched the video tutorial before I tried it to ensure I was using it properly and everything he says is true, you do really have to put your arm to work with vigorous back and forth movement! However, I find it's a great arm workout and it works wonders." —Joanne Ertel
Get it from Amazon for $29.99.
22. A pair of super absorbent period underwear for anyone with a heavy flow and, oh, you know the rest! If your time of the month has you bleeding through pads and tampons super quick, these will soak up all that blood and prevent you from experiencing those annoying times where you wake up and notice you bled through your PJ pants and gotta wash your bedsheets. And no more tossing out period-stained panties!
They can also be used as maternity panties!
Some reviewers recommend sizing up! For more info, check out BuzzFeed Shopping editor Emma Lord's full Bambody period underwear review.
Promising review: "Very comfortable and incredibly absorbent compared to other brands I've tried. These are exactly what I needed! I don't want to have to think about my period every moment or worry about leaking. These give me such peace of mind. I don't use other products, just period underwear. I was so tired of everything else and even got sick of using cups. So I just wear these for my entire cycle. Heavier days I'm changing every five or so hours, but I'm talking really heavy. Regular days, I can go morning to evening. These are great for sleeping, too!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $12.80+ (available in sizes XS–2XL and individually or in packs of three or six various colors).
23. A tiny cleaning ball to throw into your bag and get up all those Doritos crumbs from that time you snuck snacks into the movies and ate them out your bag. Yeah, it's okay! Grab yourself one of these reusable babies (simply rinse under water to clean) and keep your purse as clean as the day you bought it. Toss it in your bag, shake it up, and *voila* no more crumbs.
24. A hair catcher for your shower that'll prevent your hair from clogging up your drain. Save yourself the headache of having to call maintenance and get yourself one of these bad boys. Simply put it over your drain and replace it every few months. Now excuse me as I *add to cart*.
Promising review: "These are a simple solution to a gross problem! My hair caused a very slow drain on our shower and I hated having to keep dumping chemicals into the system to fix it! This little contraption solved the issue and just kept going! I haven’t tried to clean it to reuse — what comes out of the drain when we remove it is absolutely disgusting and I don’t want to touch it — but I love that they are economical enough that I don’t feel terrible about tossing them. This has saved us from so many caustic chemicals and expensive plumber visits that I can forgive its disposable nature!!" —Jennifer T.
Get a pack of four from Amazon for $12.69.
25. A waterproof and crushproof SubSafe sandwich container to ensure your lunch isn't constantly crushed by everything else in your bag. It'll keep your sandwich dry and fresh and can be used as a cup, wine bottle protector, cocktail shaker, or dry storage. One device with so many functions, we love to see ittttt.
Promising review: "My lineman hubby hated talking sandwiches to work. If they were in a container, they got hard and if they were in a bag, they got soggy from being in the ice chest. This product is AMAZING. Now he takes subs and they are just as fresh as when I made them. He said they are perfect. That's a big deal because no lineman wants a hard or soggy sandwich after working all day in 100-degree weather!" —jwakefield
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors).
26. A water mark remover cloth so you don't blow up on everyone at your get togethers for not using a coaster. Breathe, my friend, it's all good! Don't let those unsightly rings stop you from enjoying yourself. Guzzle down that champagne knowing those stains are only here for a good time, not a long time.
This cloth is reusable and can be used to remove marks on wood caused by water, alcohol, and heat. It can also be used to polish metal and chrome.
Promising review: "I must admit I ordered this as a last hope. I had a mark on my bedside table that I tried various things to remove, but was totally unsuccessful. I tried this today, and there is NO sign of the mark. It is like brand-new again. I was thrilled with the result and highly recommend it to anyone. It is inexpensive in the first place but to know I can reuse it if necessary on another mark, (hopefully that doesn't occur, but life happens), makes it an even better value." —Kritik
Get it from Amazon for $5.97.
27. The Thaw Claw that'll help you thaw out meat in under half an hour, so when you get home and realize you forgot to take that pack of chicken out, dinner isn't completely ruined. Attach it to the bottom of your sink and it'll keep your packages of protein in place while you thaw 'em underwater.
Thaw Claw is a Black-owned small biz that's been featured on Shark Tank, HSN, and Good Morning America!
Promising review: "At first this looked gimmicky, but I saw a need for something like this. I use vacuum bags to freeze my meat and with our schedules, thawing out our meal for that evening often includes placing the frozen block in water to thaw in a reasonable time. Without this item, I was left to put a heavy pot or iron skillet on top to keep it in submerged to speed the thawing process. This device, with its suction base and spread design, keeps the food item under its fingers to allow the thawing process to complete in less than half the time by just putting it in the water. And before you object, 'that’s not safe, the temperature will rise too much and promote bacteria growth' — I have ServSafe certs. I know my time and temp levels and those are in no way even close to approaching the danger zone unless you leave it for hours before cooking. I recommend this item for anyone, but especially anyone who has time constraints for evening dinner prep or any other time for that matter." —mudhen7

28. A game-changing microwave pasta cooker so you can make some bomb pasta without doing all that work. I meannnn, just look at that reviewer's spaghetti below — looks freakin' gourmet. You just fill this baby to the indicated line for water, heat it in the microwave for *about* 12 minutes, and boom, noodles for alfredo! Is this what Hannah Montana meant by best of both worlds?
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Katy Herman LOVES the Fasta Pasta and had this to say:
"Two of the most basic facts about me are that 1) I love pasta and 2) I'm lazy as heck. Cooking pasta is pretty easy, even for someone like me who rarely cooks. But still, it's a little more than I want to do when I'm feeling hungry and/or burnt out to wait for the water to boil and have to wash the pot and colander when I'm done. What I really needed was something that could have the whole process done in under 15 minutes and that I could just toss in the dishwasher.
Enter the Fasta Pasta (great name btw). I'm really amazed by what a game-changer it is, as well as how user-friendly it is. It comes with a booklet of instructions on how long to cook/how much pasta and water to use for all different shapes of pasta, plus there's an extended list on the product's website. All you have to do is measure out the pasta and fill the tub with water to the appropriate fill line, then microwave it on high for the noted amount of time. When it's done, you pop on the lid, which has convenient handles. I was nervous about using my bare hands to take this out of the microwave even with the handles, but amazingly it doesn't get that hot! The lid also has a built-in strainer, which is perfect for both helping you fill the Fasta Pasta with a precise amount of water and for straining once the pasta is cooked. Then voila! You've got pasta! Check out my full Fasta Pasta review (#2), and yes, please cast me in an infomercial about it."

29. A pack of heel stoppers to avoid your heels sinking into the grass worse than the Titanic sunk. Think of how perfect these would be for outdoor summer weddings if you're gonna be a bridesmaid or even the bride! A total must-have.
Promising review: "I received this by 12 p.m. using Prime One Day on the DAY of my wedding (yes my bad that I was so busy and completely forgot to get this earlier!) Snapped these on my Jimmy Choo thin heels immediately and they SAVED my day! They stayed on my heels the entire four hours that I walked in them in an outdoor garden with grass and gravel ground. I was greeting guests and taking photos and these protected the heels and they still looked decent afterwards. No sinking into grass, dirt, or gravel, and no embarrassment. They made my heels more stable and comfortable to walk in as well. So glad I got these!" —Jenn H.
Get them from Amazon for $11.99 (available in sizes XXS–M for different heel thicknesses).
30. A Grande Cosmetics brow enhancing serum for anyone who may have been a victim of early 2000s thin eyebrow trends. I was too young to participate in those, but still, I was not blessed with thick, perfect, Zendaya brows. This tube of bottled magic will help promote the appearance of fuller, bolder eyebrows so before you know it, you'll be giving Cara Delevingne looks.
Promising reviews: "Like many people, I started with the Gwen Stefani 2000s trend of really thin eyebrows. Honestly, they hadn’t grown back since, no matter what I used. Until I found this product. I’m on my second bottle. It’s absolute sorcery, I don’t understand how or why or what’s in the formula but it does work." —Michelle
"Y'all. This stuff actually works. The first couple of months I felt like I was applying this clear magic liquid to my brows wondering if it's actually doing anything. Then one day, I got home and washed my face and for some reason, I couldn't get the rest of my eyebrow pencil off — IT WAS MY ACTUAL EYEBROW! I didn't realize how full they had gotten. I feel so much more confident without any makeup on and don't use nearly as much brow filler as I used to. I use it on my eyelashes too and they grew faster than the brows.

31. A waterproof bra liner to absorb under-boob sweat and alleviate bra band and underwire pressure, because those 95-degree summer days are on their way and we all know what that means. Keep them boobies in check and sweat-free with this lovely little reusable, machine-washable liner.
Promising review: "I am not making this up, I had been wearing a soft white tube sock under the wire area of my bras this summer. It has been hotter than usual in north Georgia and I’ve had some very uncomfortable chafing and irritation from being so sweaty so much of the time. I had the heel of the sock pointing up in the middle. I don’t even know what I was searching for on Amazon when I found these little blessings! These bra liners are soft, comfortable, well-made for the price, and not nearly as bulky as wearing tube socks! I’m so glad I found these." —Cheryl K.

32. A bleach-free weekly shower spray that'll clean your shower till it sparkles, but that's not all, friends. This baby also prevents future soap scum buildup. Spray it, let it sit for 8–12 hours (so probz spray before bed), then wake up to a totally new shower.
Promising review: "Best product ever! It's made my cleaning easier. Just spray it and leave overnight and in the morning rinse it well with water. I scrub the tiles sometimes for a shinier look and sometimes I just spray it two or three hours before cleaning and don't need to leave it overnight. It's an amazing product, I've been using it for about a month and my faucets are shinier than ever. I love this product." —Maisha A.

33. A robot vacuum so your home can stay clean without, ya know, having to clean it, cuz who wants to do that part? This thing is self-charging, works on carpets and hardwood floors, and has sensors to navigate through your apartment.
Promising review: "This little vacuum has changed my life. I turn it on every other day before I leave for work and when I get home, my floors are clean. I live in an 850-square-foot apartment in New York City and when I used to vacuum with my Miele canister vacuum, the apartment would look great for about two days until a light layer of dust would appear. Now, with the Roomba, I turn it in every other morning, and no more layer of dust. The place feels clean ALL the time. Love it!" —sharpsteven
