1. Bissell Stomp 'N Go pet stain lifting pads you can, yes, oh-so-satisfyingly stomp on to lift both new *and* old stains out of your carpet. In other words, they'll pick up the remaining stains from the coffee you spilled yesterday *and* the scene of the great puppy potty training failure of six months ago.
Promising review: "I never ever write reviews for anything, but I just had to write one for these. I have ordered three boxes already and will continue to order them forever. We have two dogs and one of them will get sick or have an accident in the house a few times a month. I've used all kinds of carpet cleaner as well as the SpotBot, but they never seemed to really get the stains out. I bought these on a whim because I was desperate to find something that might work and guess what? THEY WORKED! No joke, every stain I have put these on has come out of the carpet just by this pad sitting on the stain for around 24 hours. I have told everyone I know about these and have heard great things from them as well. If you are on the fence, just give them a try! I hope they work as well for you as they have for me!" —Angela Mimm

2. A leave-in curl conditioning and detangling spray designed for kids, but that'll be a savior for your adult hair, too. No more torturing your curls with a brush that refuses to go through knots and dreading washing your hair because of it!
Promising review: "This product worked perfectly. My daughter has curls that are absolutely adorable but I have no idea what to do for them. Most days her hair is a frizzy tangled mess and the back of her head is a rat's nest of epic proportions. Last week I was brushing out the tangles and a huge amount of hair ended up in the brush. It made me realize that I haven’t been taking very good care of her hair and I went in search of a product that could help. This product was an instant win. I spritz some water then used a generous amount through her hair then scrunched her curls. After everything dried her curls were better defined and felt soft and silky. Also after her nap there were fewer tangles and I was able to get the few out with just a quick finger comb. It smells nice and light and while I haven’t used it very frequently yet, I know this will become a daily product I will use on her hair." —Claire Hayes
Get it from Amazon for $9.69 (or $9.21 with the Subscribe & Save option).
3. And a collagen hair treatment over 26,000 people of all hair types love for making damaged strands look like new. Salon-worthy results for under $10? Don't mind if you do.
Promising reviews: "My hair used to be really soft, and then I discovered hot tools and hair dye. While my hair looks good I really missed the soft texture. This works so well. There are no instructions on the box but I washed my hair with my usual shampoo, towel dried it, worked about two quarter-sized dollops through my hair, let it sit for 20 minutes and then rinsed out. I went to bed with wet hair which usually results in my hair being kind of tangled and rough-looking but I woke up and my hair was as soft and silky as it was before I started coloring it. I'm totally in love with this product, I have long fine hair but this doesn't leave it greasy or weigh it down. I'll definitely buy again." —Ellie
"I have 4c hair and was looking for a protein treatment. I had recently used a product in my hair that had so much alcohol in it; that wreaked havoc on my hair, leaving it pretty damaged. I was very skeptical about this product because I have never seen anyone with my hair type use it. Boy was I wrong to doubt this product, it left my hair looking and feeling beautiful. I highly recommend it to anyone natural or with curly hair." —Therese-Claire

4. A Swiffer-compatible reusable duster refill made from colorful fleece for a swap that's more sustainable, more economical, and more fun than disposable refills. Win, win, win!
It's from a Michigan-based Etsy shop! Psst...avoid using fabric softener when washing this bb so it won't lose its static cling.
Promising review: "Great washable duster replacement tops. They vacuum off and wash up easily, and they grab dust and cobwebs every bit as well as the disposable ones I was using. Considering it means putting a bit less into landfills and also saving money in the long run, I only wish I had bought these years ago, sincerely. Thanks!" —otherlings
Get it from TS Designs on Etsy for $4.49 (available in 10 colors).
5. CND SolarOil, a low-key magical oil here to help banish brittle nails and dry cuticles for good. Nailed it!
Promising review: "I had a problem with my cuticles getting so dry that they would split sometimes, and no matter how many times I put lotion on my hands they would never get moist enough to lay flat like they’re supposed to. My nails were dry and brittle, so I’d end up with one breaking and then have to cut them all back in order to have them the same length. This oil has ended all of that. Now I have to cut them back because they seem to be growing faster. I haven’t had a nail split since the day I started using this oil. It soaks into your cuticles and nails so well. I was really good at using it every day in the beginning, but in the last week I got busy and and only used it twice so I ended up with a split cuticle. That’ll help you remember, right?!?! I got back on track these last two days and the cuticle is healed already. That’s just how moisturizing this stuff is. I highly recommend it!" —mlasorensen
Get it from Amazon for $9.90+ (available in three sizes).
6. Amazing dishwasher cleaning tablets that are septic-safe, made for busting mineral buildup and odors, and beloved by over 53,000 (!!!) people. Because it's pretty nasty to think the machine you use for cleaning might itself be filthy.
Just pop one in for a full cycle and let it work its magic. Plus, you only need to use it once a month, so a six-pack will last you a while!
Promising review: "Worked very well! We’ve lived in our home a while, and small remedies haven’t done much to help clean the dishwasher. I finally decided to give a cleaner a try, and this one worked exceptionally well. The pics above are after one use of two packs (as per instructions for a particularly dirty washer). I'll definitely be getting more when I run out to help maintain a cleaner dishwasher!" —chocobeanie
Get a pack of six tablets from Amazon for $6.99 (or $6.64 with the Subscribe & Save option).
7. A two-pack of popular teeth-whitening pens to have you bidding coffee stains you thought were just part of your teeth now adieu. Each mint-flavored pen lasts for 20+ uses and since you just swipe on the gel and let it sit for 30 seconds, they're wayyyyyy less of a hassle than strips or other whitening methods.
Remember to avoid eating or drinking for 30 minutes after use.
Promising review: "Hardly ever do I review but this time, sheesh! This product blew me away after only three uses! First off, it's easy to use! I've tried a ton of products for teeth whitening and all have been either inconvenient to use, or make you wear a mouthguard etc. This is a PEN/brush! Hold it like a writing pen and twist up for the solution, the solution feeds through onto the brush (which is actually the size of a tooth) and you just brushstroke on dry teeth as you are smiling! It dries on and you rinse off. Magical! I've seen a noticeable difference after only using this for three days!! My husband even said 'WOW your teeth look amazingly white.' I'm a smoker/tea drinker/coffee drinker too! I noticed the difference but never said a word to my husband about it, he's a firm believer that nothing like this ever works...LOL. Well boy oh boy this product changed his mind instantly! He already swiped my other pen and has been using it too. We see the difference and are very satisfied. What's even more awesome is the price! Remarkable difference and it lasts! If I could give this 1,000 stars this would have earned 1,001, know what I mean?!" —Lisa E.
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $19.99.
8. A revolutionary ScratchPad that'll basically get your dog to file their *own* nails while scratching away. No more battles with Buddy to get him to sit still for a trim that leaves you both miserable. Pupper pedis will no longer be something you both dread, and they'll take up way less time.
It's from a small biz based in Atlanta, Georgia.
Promising reviews: "Like many, my fur child will not allow anyone near his nails. After the first two attempts with this, I thought it wasn't going to work — he just did not want to scratch. But the third day, I got it out and asked him to scratch and off he went! You definitely want to check his nails to make sure they are somewhat even. Mine had a nail that was shorter than the others so it was getting close to the quick. We use hotdogs (chicken and turkey) as his treat, and we made sure that this is a treat he only gets when doing his scratches, which makes it even more exciting. Still have to work on the back paws but I'm confident he will get there. We got the medium and coarse, the medium is just fine. I think the coarse would be too much when first training since you'll want to do it more often. Highly recommend!!" —tinarydar3
"I saw this and put off buying it for three years. People aren’t lying — after one use, our dog’s nails look sooo much better, and she picked it up really quickly! I can stop feeling terrible pet parent guilt every time I see her nails now. 😍" —Jessica Leahy
Get it from ScratchPadForDogs on Etsy for $46.95+ (available in medium or coarse grit or a combo and in four styles).
9. An absolutely ingenious purse-cleaning sticky ball, because if you're anything like me, the price of being prepared with anything you could possibly need in your bag = a lot of dust, pretzel crumbs, hair, and bits of chipped nail polish (from rummaging) floating around at the bottom of your precious purse. This lil' friend has a washable and reusable sticky ball inside the plastic casing, so it'll roll around and collect all that grossness and you can continue blissfully not cleaning your purse out for months at a time. 😜
Promising review: "Picks up a lot for being so little. This little ball is genius!! Rolls around in my purse; which I live out of. It picks up a lot lint, debris or even crumbs. Easy to find with the bright pink. Just remove and wash and it’s ready to go again. The price was great and something I can use for years. If you live out of your purse this a must-have!!" —dj3biggs
Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (available in three colors).
10. Salicylic acid wart-removing adhesive bandages for anyone who's tried everything to get rid of a stubborn wart. These wonders are discreet enough to look like they're just covering up a paper cut or scratch, but may *finally* give you some relief.
Promising review: "More than six years with a large, sometimes painful plantar wart on the bottom of my foot. The doctor tried freezing, I tried apple cider vinegar, aspirin, and freezing at home, over and over again...nothing worked. Never showing the bottom of my feet, refusing to get a pedicure with the girls and so, so embarrassed. It felt like I was doomed to have it forever; it was resistant to everything. Literally six years of fighting it and on a whim tried these because of the good reviews. ONE APPLICATION. I wore the bandage overnight. I didn’t think it did anything, but a few days later the wart just came off. I know it’s silly to be so emotional over a stupid wart but I’m telling you I nearly cried. I’ve never been so happy with a product in my life. Highly, highly recommend giving these a try if you’ve got a stubborn plantar wart." —Liz Dube

11. A TikTok-famous, octopus-shaped blackhead-removing stick, aka a gently exfoliating, sebum-absorbing pal who might actually make you *look forward* to having breakouts so you can, uh, break him out.
Promising reviews: "I saw this on TikTok, it works great so far." —MarMarManuel
"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.
12. The amazing Yonanas machine, which — get this — makes a treat with the consistency of real ice cream with 👏 JUST 👏 FROZEN 👏 FRUIT 👏. Trust me, my parents have one of these and every time they serve this dessert to guests, peopled are *wowed.* It comes with 36 recipe ideas, but there's so much room to get creative turning all your favorite fruits into creamy deliciousness!
Promising review: "What a treat! It was not noisy at all (my electric toothbrush is louder)! The instructions were easy to follow, as was the cleanup of the unit. I also purchased PB2 and PB2 with cocoa when I ordered the Yonanas. I rolled the slightly thawed (five minutes) bananas in the PB2 and the result was a delicious peanut buttery treat! This machine truly delivers everything it promises and more! No, I'm not a paid spokesperson, just a very satisfied customer!" —Y. C. Turner
Get it from Amazon for $37.04+ (available in four colors).
13. CeraVe's salicylic acid body wash designed especially to smooth and soothe rough and bumpy skin. Over 20,000 people give this formula — which is also made with moisturizing niacinamide and hyaluronic acid — 5 stars.
Promising review: "I never do reviews...but this product WORKS! I have KP on my legs and it got rid of it 10,000%. It must be used consistently and you have to also exfoliate with an actual natural loofah or something similar, but YOU WILL SEE RESULTS. Great product for a great price! Would give 100 stars if I could!" —layla mahmoud
Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (or $13.29 with the Subscribe & Save option).
14. Wet & Forget shower spray, which'll revolutionize the way you clean your bathroom. True to its name, all you have to do is spray your shower or tub, let it sit overnight, and rinse it the next morning to reveal a cleaning miracle. It works so well, you only need to use it once a week!
Promising review: "This stuff is amazing! I had a horrible gray ring in the bottom of my shower that was impossible to remove. I had tried the Dawn dish soap method (with a lot of scrubbing) and had even used toilet bowl cleaner to try to remove the soap scum. My next step was to tear out and replace the shower pan and tile. I figured this was my last chance. I ordered the Wet & Forget spray and really coated the shower walls and floor pan and walked away. I CANNOT begin to tell you how happy I was to rinse down the walls sometime later and watch all that crud roll right down the drain!! This is the best product I have ever used in my life!! Works great and no toxic fumes!!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $20.52 (available in two scents).
15. Keurig-cleaning cups that can be used with any Keurig single-cup machine and will keep your homemade brews tasting their best, eliminating any residue from old batches that's been making them taste like the crappy cup of coffee Buddy buys Jovie in Elf.
Promising review: "10 stars!! Pictures are worth 1,000 words folks. I haven’t cleaned my Keurig in years...yes it’s nasty, but I guess I never really thought about it. As you can see from start to finish, the water was BLACK in the beginning, now it is CLEAR! I can’t wait to clean my Keurig every week (it’s too easy not to do it) plus enjoy tomorrow’s cup of joe :). Amazing product. Easy to use. No smell. I already bought two more boxes 👍" —Amazon Customer
Get a pack of five from Amazon for $11.94.
16. A 100% natural oven scrub made with eucalyptus, peppermint, lemon, and tea tree essential oils that's ready to work cleaning miracles on all the not-yummy gunk and residue left over from making all your yummy meals.
It's from a small cleaning product biz based in Fairfield, Connecticut.
Promising review: "I couldn't believe how clean it got our oven in just a few scrubs with this stuff! It looks brand-new!" —Philip Romanowski
Get the cleaner and a scrubber from Everneat on Etsy for $19.99 (available in three scents).
17. A lawn repair formula for those bare, damaged spots that would keep you from winning the All-England Best Kept Suburban Lawn Competition (sorry, Vernon Dursley, that's not a thing). It even works in tough conditions, whether those areas that need some TLC are in the sun or the shade.
The reviewer above's results are after just two weeks!
Promising review: "Been using the product for 10 days or so and it works GREAT!! My backyard now has grass growing after two years of trying other products. 100% satisfied!!" —W. Earl Mattison
Get it from Amazon for $16.44+ (available in five sizes).
18. A rubber pet hair broom with a built-in squeegee designed to sweep up all that shedding (and even liquids!) like no other. It's def a must for anyone who ever has to clean up after their pet, but can be used on non-fur baby-related spills too.
Promising review: "I bought this broom based on the tons of great reviews and I am not disappointed. I love this broom! It is lightweight but sturdy. I have used it on tile floors and carpet and it does a great job of getting the pet hair, lint, and dirt. I like this so much better than our traditional push broom. It is very easy to clean after use just using my hand, unlike our old broom. It also has a telescoping handle so that you can adjust it to whatever height you need. There is also a squeegee for doing the house windows and the car windows. I highly recommend it." —Joyce V
Get it from Amazon for $16.99.

19. A pack of clear corner guards to help make those scary-sharp coffee table corners less of a hazard for kiddos and regular clumsy people alike. To this day I live in fear of some of my parents' sharp furniture — I wish they'd had these when I was a kid!
Promising review: "Must-have. I love these. We just moved in with family, and they had a coffee table with super-sharp corners and I have a little one who pulls up on everything and is trying to walk. To say I was on edge is an understatement. My sister-in-law didn’t want an obnoxious baby proof item around her house, but these were so discreet she didn’t even notice that I had installed them. They are so soft that my little one started gumming on them to soothe his gums, LOL. They were super easy to install, stuck on very well and with not much effort, and came with plenty so if I need them I’ll have them handy. Super satisfied! If you’re thinking about getting, them please do!" —Amazon Customer

20. Clever adjustable bra strap holders for anyone who hates constantly adjusting their straps but also hates racerback bras (same — so uncomfy, right???).
Promising review: "Genius!! Why did it take me so long to find these? I was looking for a solution to hide straps in a racerback tank but these straps do so much more than just that. Unlike the round clips that pull straps tightly to the center of your back, these straps lie flat and they have just enough give to allow the bra to still fit right and feel comfortable. Moreover, they can be used to keep bra straps from falling down all day!!! Such a great product." —MsChris
Get a set of three from Amazon for $7.47+ (available in nine color combinations).
21. A special "bib" for your splashy faucet, because *everyone* drips water at least a bit when they wash their hands or dishes — you're not doing it wrong. Especially if you live in an NYC apartment with a very strange water pressure-to-sink-basin ratio like I do.
It's from an Oregon-based small business, and you can also message the seller for a custom design.
Promising review: "LOVE these splash catchers! They save me from having to chase the puddles that form around the base of our faucet before they start creeping over the counter. So reasonably priced, made well with neatly finished edges, and packaged with gift-ready care. Highly recommended!" —Alina
Get it from HustleSewShop on Etsy for $13.50+ (available in four sizes and six colors).
22. Affresh washing machine cleaning tablets, which over 7,000 reviewers swear by for keeping their washer in great shape. The best part? You only need to use one about once a month!
Just pop one into your empty machine, run a cycle, and let it do its thing!
Promising review: "I have been using bleach to clean my machine for some time, but decided to give this a try a few months ago. My very first clean with Affresh left me surprised and delighted, for not only did it clean my machine, it eliminated the nasty smell that always transferred to my clothes thanks to a buildup of mold I didn't even know about. Every month now, I toss a tablet into the drum and let it work its magic. Now, my machine is cleaner than ever, and my clothes always smell wonderfully fresh. I highly recommend this to everyone." —Kelli Crawford
Get a box of six tablets from Amazon for $9.48 (or $8.06 with the Subscribe & Save option).
23. A gluten- and cruelty-free lengthening mascara that'll get your lashes to look their all-time best and stay that way — reviewers say actually stays the heck on, even through long days and sweat. As if that wasn't amazing enough, it's Only. Five. Dollars.
Promising review: "After using Lights, Camera, Lashes by Tarte for the past year, I got tired of breaking the bank over mascara. My sister suggested Essence Lash Princess False Lash Effect and I IMMEDIATELY fell in love. It provides dramatic length and great volume. I can honestly say I can’t stop looking at my eyelashes in the mirror every single day because of how awesome they look. Also, it is very long wearing. I go from an eight-hour work day right to the gym and sweat...and this stuff doesn’t budge! I love it!!" —Carrie E Weikert
Get it from Amazon for $4.99.
24. A pack of headrest hooks to keep your purse securely within reach when there's no one sitting in the back or passenger seats to pass it to you or keep it from spilling. Besides, your new Telfar deserves its own seat in the car....
You can also use 'em to hang grocery bags or large water bottles that won't fit in cupholders!
Promising review: "Very satisfied! Great for keeping shopping bags off the floor of the car. Great for handling backpacks so they won't fall off of seats. I really like it for holding my purse." —Martha
Get a four-pack from Amazon for $6.99.
25. A spa-worthy exfoliating mitt you can use after a long shower or bath soak to banish all your crusty, dry winter skin and feel like a whole new person.
Promising review: "I use a loofah every day, so I just bought this to use once a week, not thinking it would do much if anything. Man, was I wrong!!! I read reviews, viewed pictures, and watched the videos. I assumed they all used tanning products or spray tans, because the skin in the tub was brown/black. OMG, mine was too!!! I haven't tanned in 15 or so years. It was gross. On the bright side, my skin really does feel great. Just get it, seriously..." —Kim McMahon
26. Bio Oil, an amazing vitamin A and E formula that over 4,000 5-star reviewers swear by for working all sorts of skincare wonders, from fading scars to smoothing and moisturizing. Basically, it's the secret ingredient your self-care routine has been missing.
Psst! Bio-Oil contains retinol, which accelerates skin turnover but can make you more sensitive to the sun — so don't forget your sunscreen!
Promising review: "I was skeptical of how amazing the reviews are, but this stuff is pure gold. I use it on stretch marks on my legs and in just a week they went from bright angry red to purple. I use it twice a day if I remember, and it's amazing. I also rub it on my face after I wash my face. It has made my acne on my cheeks go WAY down, and is removing the scars. I have amazing skin now. I use this stuff EVERY day, and I've barely even put a dent in it. This size is amazing, and for the price — holy cow. I seriously never leave reviews, but seriously this stuff is pure magic. I tried vitamin C serum, rosehip, witch hazel, etc. and this is the only thing that has worked for me. Good luck!!" —Jessamyne Campbell
Get it from Amazon for $11.12.
27. An endlessly reusable, nonadhesive hair remover roller you can just glide over your furniture to suck up the seemingly impossible amounts of fuzz your beloved fur baby deposits on a daily basis. Yes, you can now wear black pants and have company over — maybe even both at the same time! — without having to break out the pain-in-the-butt sticky lint roller.
Promising review: "If I could give this product 6 stars, I would. My husband and I use it almost every day. We have three furry dogs and six fluffy cats, which makes for A LOT of hair. We were using a lint roller before we bought our ChomChom Roller. The lint roller didn't work very well and had to be replaced. We have had our ChomChom Roller for months and it still works just as well as it did when we first got it. We can actually invite our friends over now without worrying about all the pet hair." —Morgan Willis
Get it from Amazon for $25.95.
28. Handy dandy faucet extenders to make getting your kiddo's (often v nasty) hands clean less of a hassle. They'll also feel so grown-up when they can actually reach the water!
Promising review: "Before I knew a thing like this existed, I spent the time it took to wash my squirming kiddo's hands one at a time wondering how long it was going to take for his arms to grow enough to reach the faucet. I'm so glad I have this thing now! The setup is just taking it out of the box and stretching the rubber part around the faucet; took two seconds plus some time to adjust to the best angle. Now I can wash my 15-month-old's hands at the same time, and the whole process is much faster and easier. He liked it right away too! A bit too much honestly. The worst part about this product is my toddler grabbing it and trying to use it as a water launcher, but that has been easy enough to avoid. The little rubber part pivots a bit so there is flexibility in how you wrap it around your faucet and what angle the water comes out of the chute, but it doesn't pivot THAT much, so as other reviews have mentioned, it won't work with upward-angled faucets." —Michelle G.
Get a set of two from Amazon for $11.49.
29. Absolutely ingenious soda can "lids" that'll make cans travel-, outdoor-, and clumsy-kid-friendly by basically transforming them into lil' bottles! These dishwasher-safe wonders also help keep the drinks fresh (read: not flat!) longer. My mind is blown.
Check 'em out on TikTok here!
Promising review: "These are amazing! Especially for kids. I have carried them by the top as well as flipped them upside down etc. and it does not pop off! I was skeptical but surprised at how well they stay on!" —Britt25
Get a set of six from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in six colors and also in packs of 12).
30. Super convenient food storage labels I can't believe I didn't know about sooner — they dissolve in water in just 30 seconds, without leaving any icky sticky residue behind. Meal prep and cleanup just got so much more seamless. (Which, incidentally, is also the name of the app you'll now be using less...)
They're freezer safe, too!
Promising review: "Great for freezing baby food. These were a gift from my mother after she got tired of trying to figure out what kinds of homemade baby food I have in the freezer when she comes over to watch our daughter. These are the perfect size for our Oxo Tot containers. I write what the food is with just a regular pen and put the label on top of the container. The great part about these is that I don’t need to take the label off when I’m done with them. I just throw them in a bucket full of hot soapy water in my sink and they dissolve right away. I make 100% of my daughter’s food and there is no way I could use up the entire roll of this, it comes with more than enough labels. I would recommend these over a different type of food labels." —Katie
