1. A life-changing pair of no-tie shoelaces you can use to turn any pair of shoes into comfy, perfect-fitting slip-ons and banish gross, hazardous dangling shoelaces for GOOD. Just ask the over 11,000 (!!!) positive reviewers.
2. Miracle-Gro indoor plant food spikes, which might be the closest you'll get to the green thumb you've always wished you had. Just stick these guys into your plant pot every few weeks so you can keep your foliage friends alive and perky for once!
3. Amazing, as-seen-on-Shark Tank earplugs designed to lower the volume in any noisy setting without interfering with sound quality, so they're perfect if you're going to a concert or are sensitive to loud noises.
4. An amazingly affordable babydoll and thong lingerie set for those nights when you want to rock something that's a sexy step up from the souvenir T-shirt you've been wearing as pajamas since 2006.
5. An adorable mental health-focused planning pad to remind yourself that finding time to do things you love is just as important as the rest of your to-do list.
6. Coty Airspun loose face powder, a magical setting powder that over 3,500 reviewers swear by to really, truly lock in their makeup All. Dang. Day. The days of your fab smokey eye wearing off by lunchtime are over.
7. A pair of blind spot mirrors to help you safely see all your surroundings when you're behind the wheel and prevent a limited field of vision from ~driving~ you bananas.
8. An angled frosting spatula that'll totally take your baking game to the next level (extra Instagram likes are basically included).
9. Sally Hansen Nail Growth Miracle Serum, which is perfect for folks who want long nails but aren't long on patience.
10. A handy laundry detergent cup holder that rests neatly under the detergent jug to stop you from making your usual soapy mess. Because after all, anything that makes laundry less of a pain in the butt is a win.
11. A Harry Potter origami book for anyone interested in trying a magical new hobby or just having something to do with their hands while they watch Prisoner of Azkaban for the hundredth time.
12. A luxe silk scrunchie that's gentle on your hair and won't leave you with the dreaded split ends or post-ponytail crease. Plus, it'll look wayyy cuter on your wrist than your usual elastics.
13. Game-changing microwavable meal mugs, each printed with multiple recipes you can actually make in the mug itself — hello, breaking out of your weeknight dinner rut without breaking out your oven mitts or your Postmates password.
14. A simple-yet-brilliant magnetic glasses holder to keep your specs safely on your shirt at all times, and prevent the panic that always ensues when you lose track of your favorite pair. It also works great for ID badges and corded earbuds!
15. An adhesive document clip that'll attach to your monitor and free up precious desk space and keep everything you need to see at a glance. Having to shuffle papers around every time you need to reference that memo? You're too much of a boss for that.
16. A genius multitasking ring ready to solve all your purse problems, from not wanting to leave it on the floor of a crowded bar or restaurant to losing your keys in the abyss of your tote...again.
17. A mini photo lightbox that'll put regular frames to shame by giving your pics some glam backlighting. You can even write a cute caption on the bottom with a dry-erase marker!
18. An amazingly roomy yet thin wallet with over 4,500 positive reviews and a RFID-blocking lining that's your heavy, bulky old wallet's worst nightmare — it's finally getting replaced.
19. Cheerful pastel four-color pens here to give you the prettiest (and most organized) notes of your life.
20. A nonstick-safe, soap-dispensing dish brush, because you're sick of getting your hands all gross and soapy with your beat-up old kitchen sponge. In fact, it may be time for that guy to retire.
21. Cloaked Box, a genius gift box for those of us who find wrapping a gift neatly to be about as easy as the Saturday crossword or scoring Jonas Brothers tickets. All you have to do is assemble the box and secure the pre-attached (and, most importantly, pre-cut) peel-and-stick paper, and you're done!
22. A huge set of letter stud earrings to help make your personal style way more...well, personal. Spell out short words if you have multiple piercings, rock your initials or those of someone you love, and just get creative!
