Promising review: "Oh my gosh, I'm in love! This dress feels like a soft T-shirt. It's very stretchy, so comfortable, and the length is perfect! I feel beautiful in this. You can totally dress it up with boots, a scarf, or a necklace. I will definitely be ordering more colors." —Heather

The reviewer who posted the photo above said they used to have to scrub their toilet every few days!
The kit comes with the cleaning device and two pouches of cleaning product, each enough to last three months before being replaced!
Promising review: "Absolutely love this. I wish I would've purchased this system so much sooner! We've had this installed for a month now and the toilet bowl is crystal clean, completely spotless all on it's own, without me cleaning the bowl!! I'm so excited about this product and it makes my life SO much easier not having to clean the buildup every week. Even then, I could never get everything scrubbed off, no matter how much toilet bowl cleaner I used and how hard I scrubbed. There was a bleach smell when we first installed it, only for the first couple of days, but now I hardly notice it at all — it's very faint. It makes me happy knowing that the bowl is clean all the time!" —luv3kids

Promising review: "This is BY FAR the best cleaner I've ever used. There is no review I can give this that will do the product justice. It works great on carpet, furniture, tile, toilets, bathtubs, sinks, walls, I could go on. This is the last cleaner you will ever need to buy!" —GL!+cH

Yes, the white spots in the pic on the right are, in fact, bits of gunk pulled from the reviewer's pores!!! I also love these patches, and you can read my full review.
Promising review: "Okay, what is this sorcery?? I can't believe I never knew these existed. I seriously felt like a teenager again last weekend. Literally days after talking about how great my skin has been, this giant, painful, bulging zit was starting to form right in the middle of my chin. A week before my cousin's wedding, naturally. It was like it wouldn't stop growing, and spot treatment solution was doing absolutely nothing. It hurt so bad, and I couldn't help trying to pop it, but it refused. Then I heard about these. I placed one on my chin the second they arrived in the mail. After a few hours, I saw the white forming and I was curious and peeled it off. Then I put a fresh one on before bed, and come the next morning...HOLY COW, the entire dot of the patch was now a giant white blob. This zit was no joke. It's amazing how much fluid/pus had to get sucked out. Like I said, this is some magic. The zit completely went away within a day." —HRWeather

Promising review: "I'm very happy with my purchase. It did just what I wanted it to do. I have a huge collection of makeup, but it was all so cramped under my vanity and I had a hard time finding exactly what I wanted. I do believe those days have finally passed. This organizer is currently holding about 70-80 products of all sizes. It was easy to put together. I like that I can rearrange all my products to suit my taste. The lip around the shelf is high enough so that the products are easily stored without everything falling out when I rotate it. It feels sturdy and it rotates very smoothly." —M. Johnston

Promising review: "These pens write really well, are superfine, and are pretty adorable. I didn't think I would like them so much and was worried they would smear really badly (I'm left-handed), but they don't. The caps stay on nice and tight, and they're easy to stick on the end of the pen while you're using it and they don't fall off. Now I just have to make sure people don't steal them from my desk..." —Laurabear

Promising review: "Like many of us, I know I should warm up and stretch before exercise and cool down and stretch after exercise. Also like many of us, I don't tend to have a good exercise routine or even the best knowledge of what or how to do it, or even the creativity to be able to mix things up. These cards have helped with that. Each card features a picture of an exercise, a description of how to properly perform it, a recommended number of reps, and a rating for level of difficulty, plus some key points on proper form for the exercise and how to modify it for more impact. It comes with a card that shows 12 stretches to warm you up, 50 cards that each have a unique exercise (do you know 50 exercises? I sure don't), four cards that give you an exercise routine to follow (it lists the cards to use, number of reps for that card, and the rest period in between, which helps those of us who have no idea where to start), a card to create your own exercise routine, a calendar card to keep track of the days you exercise, and a goal card to list your goals, plan, and deadline. You can write on the cards with a dry-erase marker." —Lance

Promising review: "I had breast surgery and was having a lot of pain and discomfort wearing regular bras. My girlfriend recommended trying a bralette. It was so comfortable it felt like I wasn't wearing a bra. It gives me great support and shape under my clothing. And it's pretty! I was a 38/40DD before my surgery and am now slightly smaller; I bought the XXL and it fit perfectly. I've since ordered several more in different colors and I'm about to do so again." —Angel

Promising review: "I keep it on my office desk to help clean off crumbs and dust. It's no louder than a hairdryer and has decent suction. It sucks up crumbs and dust without any problem. I've also used it on my craft table to suck up glitter and other small paper scraps, and again it worked seamlessly. It's a great little gadget to have on hand in several situations. I might just get another." —D. Phillips

Promising review: "I'm a college student with a lot of papers to carry. I was looking for something cute and easy to carry that fits manila folders and keeps smaller folders from getting crinkly. This DID IT. I can't express how much I love this — I got a second one that's coming very soon! I can throw loose leaf papers, folders, or even books or small notebooks in this, and nothing gets crinkled or bent. I get a lot of compliments on it as well!" —Alexa Viz

It's the grown-up version of shoving everything under your bed!
Promising review: "This bench has served more uses than I ever could have imagined. Originally, I bought this just for the added storage. Not only does it fit all my bulky sweaters, but it's a great way to have additional seating in my room and I can use it as a table or footrest! When the package arrived, I couldn't believe how compact the bench was. The assembly takes all of three seconds, and it's completely self-explanatory. You unpack, unfold, and cover. It's so simple." —Miranda

Promising review: "Love this watch. I've had no problems with the band as others have stated, and it keeps time well. I'm a veterinarian and hard on watches. This fits my personality well and will not be a financial tragedy when it breaks, gets chewed up, or is splooshed with foul fluids." —Laura
Get it from Amazon for $9.95.
Promising review: "A package of these paid for itself after one use. I used it to repair the cuff of my corduroy pants, which had gotten caught in a bike chain. There rip was going to be impossible to sew by hand, so I used a patch on the inside and outside of the cuff to hold it together. After a year of so of washes and dry cycles I noticed the patches coming up on the edges. I just peeled the original patch off after heating it up with and iron an replaced it with another one." —Ed Raton

Promising review: "These deserve ten stars. They fit perfectly and are classy-looking heels!! I wore them to a wedding and had them on for well over eight hours, and not once did they hurt my feet. I felt like holding up my long dress so everyone could see my shoes. These heels are just perfect, and the ankle straps make my legs look even sexier. They're very comfortable shoes and I'll be ordering additional pairs. I would say order these — you simply can’t go wrong and your feet will thank you for it." —Minerva Bryant

Promising review: "This is the only creaseless, perfect coverage, transfer-resistant, longwear, perfectly-matches-your-skin-but-looks-even-better foundation I've ever found. I had it on from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. and literally forgot I was wearing it. I was just wearing the foundation, no other products. I almost didn't wash it off before bed; it's that lightweight! Thank you Fenty!" —NaanaEsi

Promising review: "I bought this on a whim in a last attempt to save my favorite duvet cover. The pills had gotten to the point where it was seriously uncomfortable to sleep with them. I thought I was going to have to get a new duvet cover entirely. Along came this lil baby. Not only is my duvet cover basically brand new, but I have found a new hobby. I’m de-pilling everything. Sweatshirts, leggings, blankets, socks, anything that looks like it needs some love. It does the job quickly and leaves everything looking fresh. I’m obsessed. I’ve started asking if my neighbors need anything de-pilled. Everyone needs to own this." —Sydney Jensen

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Maitland Quitmeyer loves this! She writes: "Like many of you, I've been living in sweats and PJs during this almost-year of WFH full time. And it's made me revisit the state of some of my loungewear. Take for example, this college sweatshirt I wear all the time — as evidenced by the rather EXTENSIVE pilling all over it. So when I saw this pumice-esque sweater stone (it's made from upcycled car windshield glass — how cool is that?!), I decided it was worth the try. We've featured electric pill removers, but sometimes you're looking for a little more detail or control — that's where this stone comes in handy. I was able to navigate around the contours of the logo on my sweatshirt with ease, removing pills using the corner or the entire flat bottom in a few quick strokes. It truly took no time at all — the sweatshirt was done in mere minutes. The only thing I would note is that particles do 'fall out' of the stone, so do your pill-removing on a surface that's easy to sweep or vacuum up at the end."
Get it from Celsious (A Black woman-owned, Brooklyn-based small business) for $17 or from Amazon for $11.38.
It has sensors, so it knows when your kitty is in the box, and it rakes the box automatically 5, 10, or 20 minutes (you choose the setting) after they leave. All the nastiness is stored in an odor-locking trap until you change the tray (which you only have to do every few weeks)! Plus, it even includes a counter that'll let you know how often your cat uses the box, in case you need to monitor their output for health reasons.
Promising review: "This litter box has changed my life! Our home environment is cleaner, and I don't have to handle nasty cat litter before I take care of the baby. My cat loves it too!!! She flopped down inside and took a nap as soon as I set it on the floor. If your life is a never-ending list of things to remember, do yourself a favor and get this litter box, and cross cat crap off the list!" —Melissa M.

This queer woman-owned business is one of my favorite shops on all of Etsy because of UK-based artist Katie Abey's whimsical illustrations, LOL-worthy puns, and even totally unique Harry Potter merch (she legit runs a store called Punnydukes in the UK and it's my dream to visit one day).
Get the "I did my taxes" sticker or the "I ate some veggies" sticker for $2.95, both from KatieAbey on Etsy.
