1. Miracle-Gro indoor plant food spikes, which seriously live up to their name. No one will believe the ~thriving~ plant in your apartment is the same one that was looking droopy as heck just last week. No, you didn't just sneak out and buy a new one — you actually kept a plant alive for once!!!
2. A 20-pack of multi-surface eraser sponges that may not be the name brand, but do not mess around when it comes to messes. Like in the pics below, I imagine the sponge saying (if sponges could talk, that is) "Ha! You call yourself PERMANENT marker? We'll see about that."
3. A marvelous sink cleaner to polish all sorts of sink surfaces, from porcelain to acrylic to granite, and help eliminate stains and scuffs you had been getting the ~sinking~ feeling you were just gonna have to live with.
4. Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink liquid lipstick, which is not one of those products that's content to just pay ~lip service~ and claim it'll last all day. This stuff actually will — and no one will believe you when you say you didn't reapply.
5. A stunningly effective diamond cleaning stick precise enough to clean every every last corner of your most prized gems and get them to shine as bright as Rihanna said they would.
6. Glossier Boy Brow, a hypoallergenic, cruelty-free brow shaping and filling gel that several of my coworkers LITERALLY never stop talking about. Based on the amazing but natural-looking difference it makes, I can totally see why.
7. A bottle of anti-dandruff shampoo to make those dry flakes on your scalp do a Houdini-level vanishing act.
8. Or Briogeo's Scalp Revival Charcoal and Coconut Oil Micro-Exfoliating Shampoo, because your dry, flaky scalp is craving the same exfoliating scrub treatment you give your face. Plus, it works so fast it's basically magic.
9. Black Diamond Ultimate Grout Cleaner to restore your grout to a color that you didn't even know it was supposed to be.
10. CND SolarOil, a low-key magical oil here to banish brittle nails and dry cuticles for good. Nailed it!
11. A beyond satisfying three-step cradle cap kit that includes a sponge, brush, and comb (plus a storage stand for them) to get rid of all those nasty flakes on your bébé's otherwise very cute head.
12. Howard Feed-N-Wax Wood Polish and Conditioner, a beeswax and orange oil formula that's basically like a spa treatment for your wood surfaces. In addition to polishing, it adds a protective layer and helps prevent the wood from drying out or fading, so it's time to cue a rom-com makeover montage for your cabinet doors.
13. A giant foot file that'll make even the crustiest tootsies smoother than you ever thought possible — and that's no small feet.
14. A special pill-removing, pumice-esque stone made just for restoring your favorite clothes to their former glory. Like, they could almost pass for new (if you didn't already have 87 pictures of yourself wearing them on your Instagram that prove otherwise).
15. Microfiber makeup remover cloths capable of swiping off even the toughest products with just WATER (yup, you read that right).
16. Tilex Mold and Mildew Remover spray for a visible difference in your shower tiles and other scummy spots in your bathroom in a flash. Plus, your tiles won't just look really clean, but be really clean — this stuff kills 99.9% of mildew and mold.
17. Pumie Toilet Bowl Ring Remover, aka a pumice stone with a handy handle sure to produce results that'll bowl you over.
18. A Cerama Bryte cooktop cleaning kit, which has everything you need to ensure that even the most stubborn stains on your smooth-top range will be ~cooked~.
19. NYX matte finish setting spray, an amazingly affordable spritz that reviewers swear by for seriously locking in their makeup looks all dang day. Does anyone want to play spot the difference with the two pics below? Because I think it would be a challenge.
20. Washable microfiber mop pads that'll fit on your trusty Swiffer WetJet or similar mops so you can kick wasteful and pricey disposable pads to the curb. You'll be shocked — and perhaps horrified — by how much more ick they can pick up than the mop heads you have been using.
21. A metal tongue scraper to banish bad breath and gross buildup so effectively, it'll leave you (clean) tongue-tied.
22. A multi-surface pet stain and odor eliminator that over 13,000 people (and presumably their furry friends) swear by. Because even the goodest boys and girls sometimes make messes, and you'll want to have this on hand (er, paw) when they do so it can be like it never happened.
23. Or Sunny & Honey Carpet Miracle, a cruelty-free formula you can use in most any carpet cleaning machine to battle stains made by humans and pets alike. Your dog isn't the only one who sometimes has accidents, though yours are less the bathroom variety and more the spilling-a-full-glass-of-Merlot variety.
It's from a family-run small business that specializes in cleaning products, especially ones for homes with pets!
Promising review: "Worth every penny. I’ve bought this product so many times now I have it on autoship! Saw the reviews and figured I’d give it a try. My cat likes to pee over the litter box and stained the brand new carpet. I used this in my Bissell and it took all the stain and smell out!!! I’ll never use another cleaner." —Wendy
Get it from Amazon for $19.97 (or $18.97 with the Subscribe & Save option).
24. A snaking tool to free your drain of all the hair that's festering down there. I've always thought I had a strong stomach for before and after photos, but people, I think we have found my limit.
25. A natural scour paste you can use on all sorts of surfaces to give them a glow-up you'll wanna show the world. This is probably the stuff gunk and grime's nightmares are made of — it's coming for them!!!!!
26. Majorly space-saving hangers to transform your tiny closet into something you can work with, even if you've got an extensive wardrobe. They also come with the added benefit of helping you convince your mom that no, you do not have too many T-shirts/jean jackets/floral dresses, because look, they all fit in one corner of the closet!!!
27. Game-changing Rubbermaid Freshworks containers, which may come with the side effect of making it even harder to remember the last time you went to the grocery store. When your berries still look perfect and ripe after over a week, who's to say???
28. Some reusable keyboard cleaning goo that'll reach into the dusty depths between your keys that you could never figure out how to clean and pick up crumbs that have been there since you were first bingeing Tiger King (so, a small eternity ago).
29. Squishface Wrinkle Paste, an anti-itch, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal cream made for cleaning the cute faces (and tail pockets) of the wrinkliest doggos around. Oh, so that's what your pup looks like without tear stains and wrinkle redness!
30. Hypoallergenic, cruelty-free, and paraben-free makeup brush-cleaning "shampoo" to have your beloved brushes suds-enly looking like they're brand-new.
31. An amazing leather and suede cleaning brush you'll be easily ~suede~ to buy once you peep pics of the results.
32. A top-rated Revlon one-step hair dryer and volumizer that combines a round brush with a hair dryer because using both of those items simultaneously is a gosh darn challenge and you don't have the time nor the patience for it.
Promising reviews: "OH MY LANTA. PURCHASE THIS NOW. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT. I found this one TikTok and saw the gal's review and had to buy it. I have thick hair and this dries my hair in less than 15 minutes. PLUS I don’t have to fuss with a straightener or a curling iron if I don’t want to! It leaves my hair so soft and shiny and gives it SO MUCH VOLUME! I recommend this to ANYONE I talk to about it. Seriously my favorite styling tool. Seriously so in love." —Sydney
"How have I lived without this so many years?!?! I have long thick, frizzy, wavy/curly hair. Between 2c and 3a curl type. I love my curls and embrace them. However, it's nice to have smooth hair that I can run a brush through daily....A friend of mine has a more expensive brand of blow drying brush and loves it. However; I can't spend $100+ on a hair tool right now. I dug into researching blow drying brushes and naturally the Revlon one kept popping up. The first time I used it, I only put a heat protector on my hair. I didn't use any smoothing/straightening serums. I was BLOWN AWAY by the results. In 12 min I had smooth, shiny, perfectly voluminous, blown out hair. It was AMAZING. Since then I have always used a heat protector and a smoothing serum to protect my hair. And I spend about 15min really working it to style. I'll be damned - it looks salon quality. Another great thing is on my no-wash days I can run it back through my hair to freshen it up in the morning. No more unruly or overly flat hair!" –Jill
Get it from Amazon for $39.45+ (available in two styles).
33. A pet hair roller for anyone that prefers their clothing and furniture to *not* be sporting a fur coat at all times. We love our furry friends so much, but my goodness do they know how to shed.
Promising review: "Where has this been all my cat-loving life? Sticky rollers work fine for clothes but this is the only product that has ever COMPLETELY removed all the cat hair from my bed. I have a long-haired 20 pound tabby and if you run your hands up his back a few times and fling the hair everywhere, it looks like it's snowing – he never stops shedding no matter what I do. After using the ChomChom, I can put on a black dress and roll around on my bed and not get a single hair on me. It's absolutely amazing. Everyone is getting one for Christmas, even if they don't have a pet. I don't care; it's THAT good." —Stephanie
Get it from Amazon for $28.95.
34. A set of Lovoir winged eyeliner stamps that'll give you sharp, defined, and EVEN (!!!) cat-eye wings without the hassle of actually having to draw them on yourself.
Promising review: "Let me start by saying this isn't my first cat-eye rodeo. I've tried the taping method, normal liquid liner, plastic winged stamping devices, stencils, all of it! Well, this gem arrived and I immediately had to try it out, all while laughing at how terrible this would probably turn out...but to my surprise I put the left cat-eye on first and it was perfect. I thought this was a fluke and did the right eye...again, it came out clean and perfect! I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE BEEN ABLE TO DO A CAT-EYE IN UNDER 10 MINUTES, LET ALONE THE TWO MINUTES THIS TOOK TO DO! There were no sloppy streaks that I had to touch up or anything you would expect. Just a clean, crisp line. I can now do a cat-eye EVERY day and look/feel like a badass. Everyone can think I spend hours doing my makeup in the morning." —LadyMeow
Get a set of two from Amazon for $14.98+ (available in three sizes; be sure to clip the coupon before checkout to save an additional $1).
35. And the TikTok-favorite all-purpose paste by The Pink Stuff designed to clean just about anything and everything in your home. Wall scuffs? Yes! Soap scum? Heck yeah! Caked-on grease on dirty pots and pans? Yup, even that!
Promising review: "Busy mom of three littles. I live to find the next best cleaning product that will make my life easier. This is it! Clean marks off walls. Stains in sinks or tubs. Hard water spott on shower fixtures! Takes care of it all!!" —AmandaKelley06
Get it from Amazon for $5.97.
