    18 Proactive Products That Solve Problems Before They Even Happen

    Including a wine filter if a glass of red gives you a headache, and a veggie dicer that'll make food prep easy.

    1. A TubShroom for snagging all the hairs you shed before they collect in the pipes. Say hello to relaxing showers and goodbye to standing in a puddle of water for 15 minutes because the drain is clogged...again.

    2. A mug warmer so your coffee, tea, or hot cocoa doesn't even have a chance to get cold. Repeat after me: There's nothing worse than room-temp coffee. There's nothing worse than room-temp coffee. There's nothing worse...

    3. A Bluetooth sleep mask to help lull you to sleep with the soothing sounds of your favorite song, podcast, or ASMR video. Each charge lasts up to eight hours, so they're also great for long road trips (as long as you're a passenger and not the driver!). Plus, they're wireless meaning no more untangling cables!

    4. A pack of plant food spikes for gardeners with black thumbs or a forgetful mind. These sticks provide up to two months of continuous feeding so it's OK if you forget to check on your plants...for a month.

    5. The Wand, a mini handheld filter because they're designed to help reduce your wine-induced headaches. This lil' guy should remove the histamines and sulfites in alcohol that may trigger headaches and hangovers. It's also supposed to revive oxidized wine so you don't have to toss an open bottle.

    6. An interactive cat toy if your kitty could use some entertainment. This'll keep them ~feline~ playful for hours on end so you don't have to deal with your needy cat crying for attention while you're trying to get some work done.

    7. A pack of reusable wool dryer balls so you don't have to wait hours for your laundry to dry. These little guys help aerate the dryer so it finishes faster. And each ball should last you roughly 2,000 washes, which means fewer runs to the store and more lazy days at home.

    8. A veggie dicer to save you lots of time (and probably some tears) when you're cooking. Or, you could have fun chopping peppers and onions by hand for the next hour — your choice!

    9. A gel memory foam pillow for helping you drift off to the best sleep of your life. Neck pain? I don't know her!

    10. The Big Activity Book For Anxious People, because sometimes a good laugh is enough to distract you from your anxieties and save you from spiraling. This activity book mixes fun and humor with educational tips for coping with your anxiety so you feel a little less alone about your worries.

    11. Some bag-carrying carabiners if you hate the long walk from the store to your house (or even from your car to the front door). These lil' gadgets can help you carry multiple bags at once without straining your hands.

    12. A set of oven liners so you can prevent future messes and catch crumbs before they burn and get baked on. We both know the chances of you actually cleaning the oven are, well, slim, so the least you can do is get yourself a pack of these and save yourself the mess.

    13. A box of cleaning cups for your Keurig that'll get rid of residue in your machine, prevent flavors from transferring, and save you a heck of a lot of time descaling.

    14. A set of produce storage containers you'll love ~berry~ much because they'll save you money by extending the shelf life of your fruits and veg. Here's to actually cooking with the produce in your fridge in 2020.

    15. A pack of sound-dampening door bumpers if you love your family but they're also monsters who seem to enjoy shutting doors and closing cabinets as loud as possible when you're trying to sleep.

    16. A robot vacuum to clean your home in chunks during the week so you're not spending five hours with your handheld vac sucking up dirt, dust, and pet hair each weekend.

    17. A bottle of peel-off cuticle tape for giving yourself mess-free ombré nails...because we all know that going back in with a Q-tip dipped in nail polish remover is going to result in you accidentally ruining your freshly painted color.

    18. An anti-fog shower mirror because how else are you supposed to make sure you didn't miss a hair? Steamy showers don't have to make shaving nearly impossible!
