    29 Downright Brilliant Products That Made Me Think, “Okay, Amazon”

    We love a good life hack.

    1. A 2-in-1 bag clip and measuring spoon that'll be the perfect accessory for your coffee bag. It'll help measure the right amount of coffee every time while keeping your coffee stash fresh.

    2. A multipurpose metal hook that'll keep you from touching shared surfaces like doors, elevator buttons, PIN pads, and ATMs. It's small enough to fit on your keyring or in your pocket, and it has a stylus tip, so you can even use it on devices with touchscreen.

    3. A plastic spout that'll fit right into the ring of your lid, so you can transform your Mason jar into a mess-free water bottle. Reviewers say it's also a great way to pour oil, sugar, and other jarred foods.

    4. An eco-friendly notebook that you can scan using the Rocketbook app to create digital copies of all your notes. The paper is reusable, so once you're finished with your notes, just wipe the paper with a damp cloth to erase everything.

    5. A pair of no-tie shoelaces that'll make putting on your running shoes a quick and easy process. They lock in place with a toggle stopper, so you can decide how loose or tight you want them.

    9. An invisible bookshelf that'll fit on any wall in your home. The L-shaped shelf is easy to install and will help you utilize your extra wall space, if you don't have room for a traditional bookshelf.

    10. A bottle of Dawn dish spray that'll save you some time scrubbing hardened food off your pots and pans. It works without water, so you just have to spray, wipe, and rinse your dishes clean.

    11. A clever drain cover that’ll keep water from escaping your tub when you’re having a bath. The ring of suction creates a perfect seal around the overflow drain, transforming your regular tub into the deep-soaking bathtub of your dreams.

    13. A pack of GoodHangups magnets that'll hang artwork, pictures, and other wall art, without damaging your walls like a traditional hook. The little stickers will adhere to any surface, so you have the freedom to place your art anywhere in your home.

    14. A little dip clip, so you can dunk your chicken nuggets in your sweet and sour sauce without making a mess. It has a flexible silicone clip that'll attach to any vent, and grooves along the inner edge that'll fit packets of different shapes and sizes.

    16. A bottle of scented toilet spray that'll make sharing a bathroom so much easier. Just a quick spritz is enough to trap unpleasant aromas in the toilet before they spread.

    17. An anti-fog cloth that'll keep your specs from clouding up while you're wearing a face mask. And you can use it on any glass surface (like your devices or mirrors) to remove dust and fingerprints, making it a handy product to keep with you all the time.

    18. A wide roller stamp that'll cover all the private information on your papers and envelopes with a thick, dark ink. Now you can recycle your mail without worrying about of someone stealing your personal information. No shredder needed!

    19. A collapsible rack that'll hold all your makeup brushes while they dry. There are 28 holes of different sizes and they're lined with silicone so your brushes won't slip. And when you're done, the rack collapses into three flat pieces.
