Oh, and FYI — prices are accurate and items in stock as of time of publication.

1. A stainless steel tongue scraper to banish bad bacteria and improve stinky breath. This way you won't suffer the embarrassment of someone offering you a breath mint.

2. A set of bra liners so you, a sweaty person, can walk to work without the dreaded under-boob sweat. I don't care that it's winter; I. Will. Still. Sweat.

3. A Squatty Potty, because a bout of constipation shouldn't leave you down in the ~dumps~. Squatting changes the angle of your anal canal, opening it up so it's easier for things to exit.

4. And don't forget a before-you-go toilet spray to hide any evidence. Even if you're one of those weirdly confident people who can poop in public without issue, having this in your bathroom for guests can calm nervous pooers.

5. An acne patch for those days when a pimple pops up at the worst possible moment. Hydrocolloid, tea tree oil, and calendula oil are gentle on the skin while still drawing out fluids and pus from your pimple.

6. A dandruff shampoo so you can banish white flakes from your scalp. It's made with ketoconazole 1%, an antifungal ingredient that'll tell your dandruff it's no longer welcome here.

7. A grout paint pen to cover up the mortifyingly large amount of dirt and grime that has fallen into the cracks. It works like a regular marker, so even the people who failed art can use it. And it beats actually having to clean! 🙃

8. A cuticle oil that'll restore your shredded nails after a gel mani. A combination of sweet almond oil, vitamin E, and jojoba softens the cuticle and strengthens your claws so you'll be proud to show them off.

9. A Clorox ToiletWand for powering through tough rust, lime, and calcium streaks you have to explain to your guests are not poop stains — I swear! Give your tired arms a break and let this little guy scrub away discolouration with ease. Each abrasive head has soap built in and is disposable so you can toss it when you're done.

10. A clay mask so you can basically vacuum out your pores. It may also help reduce the frequency of your breakouts and soften your skin.

11. A collagen-coating hair treatment that's safe for all hair types and will revitalize a dry, damaged, and overprocessed mane overnight.

12. A tube of antiperspirant hand cream to dry your hands if you suffer from hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), or you're nervous and dreading the handshake before your job interview. It'll work on your feet, too!

13. A mould and mildew remover so you can finally be free of those unsightly black splotches on your tile grout. A bathroom so clean you can show your parents? You love to see it!

14. A disposable urinal, because nature calls and you need to be ready to answer it. Just pee into the bag (there's a spill guard), let it seal (the bag will do this on its own), and toss it when you find a trash can. These are also great for people who have trouble leaking or need to pee frequently.

15. A FlexiSnake to catch the globs of hair you shed before they clog your drains. It's collapsible and covered with 4,000 tiny hooks that snag the strands that have collected in your plumbing.

16. A pack of gas-neutralizing pads that'll negate your partner's fetid flatulence. Each antimicrobial activated charcoal pad traps foul-smelling gas molecules so toxic toots are a thing of the past.

17. A hair finishing stick for cleaning up all those random strands that escape from ponytails and buns. It's basically like a mascara wand coated in natural plant oils for your hair. And it's so easy to use that no one will suspect that you, a full-grown adult, have no idea (literally zero) how to do you hair.

18. A box of wart-removing pads that you apply like bandages so you can be rid of your extra growth. Be gone, appendage!

19. A blackhead remover vacuum with a powerful head for suctioning up blackheads, whiteheads, grease, and leftover makeup. It comes with four different attachments for all your skincare needs, as well as five suction levels so you can clear up your skin without painful blackhead-removing strips.

20. A Schick Silk dermaplaning razor so you evict any unwanted stray hairs that have taken up residence on your face — and conquer your PTSD from accidentally shaving off half your eyebrow in middle school thanks to its precision cover. These itty bitty razors are great for stashing in your purse for touch-ups on the go.

21. And a box of extra strength Gas-X softgels for when you know you should be avoiding dairy but your Friday night plans include mac 'n' cheese, nachos, and ice cream.

You know what's even more embarrassing? Not buying these products.
