The regular spatula is great for medium to large sized bottles like lotion, shampoo, or conditioner. The mini spatula is perfect for makeup bottles. I figure after using these spatulas for a few months, I've probably saved more than a few loonies and toonies on makeup and skincare. Plus, it's super satisfying to see how much product comes out. I knew there was more in there!

The spongey exterior is very soft and light, but it's the weighted bead inside the sponge that does all the hard work. All I have to do is fill my bottles with a mixture of water and soap, pop the sponges in, and shake it like a Polaroid picture. I liked that the sponges were small enough to fit inside all my water bottles, even the ones with very narrow mouths, like my BuzzFeed one.

It won't ruin your walls when you're ready to remove it, and if you run it under water, you can reuse it somewhere else.
"The tape is so strong and durable, it'll pretty much stick to ANYTHING.Just how good is it? Well, I cut off a little bit of tape, and I pasted it on the uneven wallpaper in my apartment. And it stayed there! I placed a picture frame against it and pressed down firmly. Even better? I could easily remove the tape from my walls, and the wallpaper wasn't damaged at all." —Asami Togi

"I recently ran out of plastic sandwich bags which lead to a discussion between my husband and me if we even really needed them in the house at all. We decided we did NOT and chose to try out reusable Stasher silicone snack bags instead. They've been great! They're super easy to clean, come in fun colors, and feature a really tight pinch-lock seal, so snacks stay fresh." —Heather Braga

The clay bear can also be used in cookie jars and marshmallow bags to keep them soft. Or you can use it dry (don't soak it) in your spice cupboard or chip bag to absorb moisture. And just rinse it with water to clean it (soap isn’t necessary).

These gloves are honestly so much fun to use. Sometimes I go looking for things to dust. I can quickly wipe down large surfaces like counters, cupboards or tables or use them on smaller or more fragile items like the picture frames or perfume bottles, without worrying about breaking them. I usually keep one near my desk to wipe down my computer screen and desk, because it gets pretty dusty in my room. I love that I can just toss them in the wash when they start to look a little grungy.
