1. A hand-operated vegetable chopper that slices! Dices! And does it all in one fell swoop! It comes with four blades — a small dicing blade, a larger chopping blade, and two spiralizers — so all you need to do is fit the device with the blade of your choice, sandwich your veggies in the middle of it, and bring the top down firmly. It cuts your prep time down to mere seconds, according to reviewers.
Check out a TikTok of the veggie chopper in action.
Promising review: "Makes life so much easier. I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. We used to have a Prepworks chopper which was a similar idea, but you had to press so hard to chop, and it broke after not too long. This one requires very little effort to cut through the food and it has a generous container." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in three colors).
2. A jar of The Pink Stuff cleaning paste, because there's almost nothing this stuff can't get shiny and new. From tile and glass to furniture and cookware, this playful pink scrub does it all.
If you're a fan of Magic Erasers, a number of reviewers consider the Pink Stuff to be a paste version of one of those – FYI, if that's your particular cleaning jam.
Promising review: "I used this product for my stove because it's one thing I dislike cleaning. I have used multiple degreaser sprays and they all are so toxic and don't work for me. The Magic Eraser was okay but I used several at a time and I had to scrub so hard. But this product oh my goodness, legit a miracle. It doesn't have any type of smell. I put the paste on a cloth, clean the area then wipe it off with a damp cloth and voilà, magic!" —May
Get it from Amazon for $5.97.
3. A set of shockingly affordable wireless Bluetooth earbuds that prove you truly can have it all — at least, as far as your tunes and podcasts go. Durable, water-resistant, and super comfortable to wear, these lil’ music makers pack a ton of sound into a tiny, wallet-friendly package. They’ll fit just about any ear size, too, thanks to the array of different size silicone buds included.
The earbuds can play for about four hours on a single charge, and come with a charging case that lets you bring up to 14 hours of power with you wherever you go.
Promising review: "Best decision! These are the greatest headphones ever! I saw them on TikTok months ago and added them to my wishlist. I got a new phone that doesn't have the headphone port so I decided it was time to finally buy them. They are amazing and I probably won't ever take them out of my ears! 😂" —Katlyn D Arnold
Get it from Amazon $23.99+ (available in five colors).
4. A teeth-whitening pen to make your pearly whites, well, pearly white again. Each pen is good for up to 20 uses and can lighten stained chompers between four and eight shades. Not to mention that it's a whoooole lot easier to use than messy and complicated whitening strips.
Promising review: "I bought this on a whim when I saw someone review it on TikTok. After using it several times over the course of a week, I immediately noticed the difference in the color of my teeth. I'm a smoker and a heavy coffee drinker. I'm finding that this product will be a lifesaver in terms of what my smile looks like. I would definitely recommend!!" —Mully
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $13.59.
5. A tub of E.l.f.’s Poreless Putty Primer that’ll prep your face for whatever else you feel like layering on top of it each day — and help it stay put all day long, too. Lightweight and hydrating, this primer helps reduce the appearance of pores, giving you a smooth canvas to kick your routine off with.
Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok and thought I'd take a chance. I have sensitive skin and have to watch what I use. I LOVE this product! Goes on smooth and you don't need to use a lot. I put it on before I put on my foundation. Makes a huge difference. Highly recommend and will buy again!!" —Leslie Mattingly
Get it from Amazon for $9.
6. A squee-worthy, octopus-shaped blackhead scrub stick that’s so cute, you won't be able to help but smile every time you reach for it. Don’t be fooled by its adorable appearance, though; this little scrub stick is super effective for battling excess sebum, gently exfoliating, and helping pull out blackheads and other pore-clogging impurities from your skin.
Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok, it works great so far." —MarMarManuel
*Another* promising review: "After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me, smells great too. Here's how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt is visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, then I used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like myself." —LuckLocust
Get it from Amazon for $12.50.
7. A Shark Tank-famous Bug Bite Thing, because the great outdoors are lovely, but itchy, irritating bug bites are not. This suction tool works by literally sucking out the insect saliva or venom from the bite, eliminating — or at least greatly reducing — the cause of the itching. It’s good for a huge variety of insect bites, too, from mosquitoes and biting flies to wasps and bees.
Promising review: "I bought this because I saw it on TikTok, and have been having issues with mosquito bites. Used it a few times to relieve itchiness and I am convinced it works! Have been recommending it to my family and friends. Read the directions and follow them carefully. Don't use this on your face or neck, or other sensitive areas. Don't do a lot of suction, just a little bit. And do it a few times if needed. Great invention!" —Joe
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in individually and in multi-packs and in three colors).
8. A carton of popcorn salt that’ll let you experience the joys of movie theater popcorn right from the comfort of your own couch. Just add a sprinkle of this internet-beloved seasoning salt to your freshly-popped corn and you’re good to go. Movie night will never be the same again — in the best way possible.
Our family recently unearthed this because beloved To All The Boys I've Loved Before author Jenny Han mentioned that it was her secret to delicious popcorn, and it may have just wrecked me for other at-home popcorn for the rest of my life. It genuinely tastes just as salty and buttery and savory as fresh movie theater popcorn. I inhaled it so fast that every single one of my organs lit up in mild alarm.
Promising review: "I am a person who will make myself sick eating buckets of popcorn (I have no self control). This has by far been my favorite 'TikTok made me buy' item. My at-home popcorn is now my favorite thing to make and I don't need to go the theater for popcorn. Very much worth the purchase and this will last me such a long time." —S Martinez
Get it from Amazon for $9.60+ (available in two flavors).
9. A Bread Buddy sandwich bread dispenser, so you can be sure your sandwiches are always the freshest they can possibly be. It even makes storing bread easier, thanks to its ability to rest vertically or horizontally, depending on what your pantry space situation is like.
Check out a TikTok of the Buddeez sandwich bread dispenser in action.
Promising review: "The Buddeez Sandwich Bread Dispenser is great! It does exactly what it was intended for. I live alone and I don't quite go through bread often enough before the last quarter section of the loaf starts to go stale. I was originally looking for something to put a loaf of bread in as a shell for my vacuum sealer, that would keep the bread from getting crushed from the pressure. This dispenser solved all of my problems. Thank you!" —DRMcQuaig
Get it from Amazon for $12.49.
10. A collagen-coating hair protein treatment that’ll breathe life back into parched or damaged strands. Both super affordable and super effective, this deeply nourishing treatment is formulated with soy protein extract, allantoin, and ceramide 3 to give your locks the babying they need.
This is designed to work on all hair types, with reviewers with 2b to 4c curls mentioning it worked for them!
Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok, and in between other compares products that were four times the price, I decided to bite the bullet and buy this — let me tell you, best decision ever! I shampooed my hair, then heavily massaged this in, from ends to scalp. The carton says 5–20 minutes... But I ended up leaving it in for two days! And after washing it out, my hair was so shiny, bouncy and CURLY! My curl recovery journey has been long, but this has helped restore so much vibrance and shape to my hair. My mom has been stealing it from my bathroom every couple of days, after having similar results on her hair. Going to need to buy a few more to ward her off." —chisso

11. A two-pack of Dan-O’s seasoning that will supply buckets of flavor to literally anything you add it to. Each of these little jars of gustatorial happiness get their oomph from a combo of dried herbs, onion, garlic, and citrus — but you’ve also got options with this set: You can pick the OG version if you’re looking for something classic, or the hotter version if you’re feeling a lil’ ~spicy~.
Dan O's seasoning is a small business established in 2017 that gained popularity after taking to TikTok during the pandemic, where the company now has 1.5 million followers with plenty of droolworthy food content.
Promising review: "I became interested in this product while watching TikToks. I have been adding it to so many things. I use it in spaghetti, on fish, and one of my favorites is to add it to popcorn. My husband had to ask why my popcorn smelled like steak. I love the fact that it is low sodium as well. I am not a fan of extra salt and most foods already have plenty of salt but need some seasoning. This should be your go to seasoning." —Heartcri
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $13.90.
12. Some Globbles that pack all the fun fidget fuel of slime, minus the mess. The six stretchy, colorful balls included in this set give you something satisfying to squish when you just need to find something to do with your hands — but they’re also a blast to throw at flat surfaces: They’ll stick where you throw ‘em, seemingly defying gravity Elphaba-style. BUT, they also pull off again with ease, leaving no residue behind. Everybody wins!
Check out a TikTok of the Globbles in action.
Promising review: "Bought a six-pack for my neurodivergent family. We are all either ADHD or autistic. I struggle with compulsive hair pulling and bought these to help keep my hands busy. They are the perfect size, more satisfying than a stress ball, clean easily, fun to hurl at the wall or ceiling, and so far have lasted very well. I did test the durability of one and did break one when I pulled it as hard as I could —the inside looks something like shaving cream and didn’t smell or anything. But if you have a kid who is an aggressive chewer, perhaps keep an eye on them." —Amazon Customer
Get a set of six from Amazon for $9.99.
13. A bottle of nail and cuticle repair oil to give your digits a little TLC. A quick brush-application of this stuff to your nail beds once a day can help condition your cuticles and strengthen your nails, letting you say “buh-bye!” to brittle, broken tips and painful hangnails. The before and after photos are truly astonishing.
Promising review: "Found it on TikTok and I’m so pleased with the results. My nails are getting stronger and growing. And the best of all not chipping. Love it." —sidna saavedra
Get it from Amazon for $9.90+ (available in three sizes).
14. A game-changing slushy-making cup that’ll turn any cold drink into an icy, refreshing treat — no trip to 7-Eleven required. Just pop the cup in the freezer for a couple of hours, then add your favorite cold drink — soda, juice, you name it — and squish the sides of the cup. Watching the slush form inside is the most delicious of magic tricks.
Check out a TikTok of the Slushy Maker Cup in action — it even comes with a spill-proof lid so it won't leak while you're crushing the cup!
Promising review: "It actually works! To my disbelief of all things seen on TikTok and YouTube, this silly cup actually worked and now I really like it! It’s a good gift for a teenager or school-aged kid." —tracy
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in 14 colors).
15. A bottle of Wet and Forget shower cleaner that'll give you a squeaky clean shower without the need to scrub — like, at all. Once a week, just spray the whole shower down with this stuff, let it sit overnight, and rinse it off the next day. It’ll do all the mold- and mildew-fighting for you. Sorcery!
Promising review: "I have well water. Something in my well water reacts with copper plumbing and turns my shower tiles blue. Since my bathroom color scheme isn't on the blue spectrum, this is problematic. The well water also causes the shower glass to film up quickly. I've tried dozens and dozens of cleaners and scrubbed till my arms ached trying to get ahead of the blue and scumminess. My ambition in life is NOT to be a full time bathroom scrubber! I saw this stuff on a professional house cleaner's TikTok (sorry, don't remember which one) and thought 'what the heck, might as well give it a try.' Oh my goodness, the first day after my shower I sprayed this stuff all over and walked away. The next morning there was a NOTICEABLE reduction in the blue and the glass looked clearer too. Day two, sprayed again and walked away. The next morning the blue was gone except for a few spots on the floor tile and the glass looked amazing. Day three I sprayed the remaining spots and the next morning the shower practically looked new. NO SCRUBBING AT ALL!!!! This is my new favorite shower cleaner. The ONLY con I have is that it makes me sneeze while I'm spraying from inside the shower, but I can live with that." —L. J. Petillo
Get it from Amazon for $20.08.
16. A box of rinse pods for your Keurig, because have you looked in there recently? It's a horror show. Happily, cleaning the nastiness that is the inside of your coffee machine after it's been left to its own devices for too long is easy to do: Just run your Keurig as usual, subbing out your regular coffee pod for one of these rinse pods instead; then, run one more cycle with just water to get everything sparkling inside.
Promising review: "I had no idea that cleaning a Keurig was a thing. I bought these because I saw them on TikTok, believe it or not. I wanted to give it a go because my Keurig isn’t that old and I didn’t think it would do anything. IT WORKS SO WELL! My Keurig wasn’t as nasty as some I’ve seen lucky. I would highly recommend, keeps everything running correctly and clean." —Lauren
Get a set of six from Amazon for $9.95.
17. An ultra-Instagrammable glass tumbler, because nothing will encourage you to stay hydrated like a drink receptacle you actively like to use. This astonishingly pretty tumbler features a colorful silicone sleeve, a matching straw, and a bamboo lid for the ultimate ~aesthetic~ beverage experience.
BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord says: I personally love mine because I am *terrible* at drinking water (the Wicked Witch of the West has nothing on me!!) but this straw situation has a weirdly good mouth-flow-feel (there is probably a more concise way to describe that, but too late!!) and it makes it more fun to hydrate. Also I am an aesthetic monster, and this ticks that box.
Promising review: "I saw this product on TIkTok and automatically liked it! I love that it comes in so many different colors and the top is wood. I drink lots of water and needed a cup I could take with me everywhere. I could also put iced coffee in it too. I love that it came with two straws, a clear one and white. I will be purchasing another one for my husband and also one for my mom in different colors!" —Rose
Get it from Amazon for $12.76+ (available in 33 colors and in multiple packs).
18. A bottle of Paula’s Choice’s much-loved 2% BHA liquid exfoliant, because honestly, it doesn’t get much better than this stuff. Powered by salicylic acid, this skin treat helps reduce the appearance of pores, soothe redness, remove dead skin cells, and fight acne — and even better, it’s designed for all skin types. Even folks with sensitive skin adore it.
Promising review: "I had seen several reviews on TikTok about this product and I decided to try it for myself and see how good it was as they said. I had pores and pimples around my cheeks (I have ever since I was a teenager), I've tried different products but none worked as well as this one. Every night before going to bed, I apply it to my face along with a moisturizer (I prefer during the night so it can stay the longest). And wow, I am not kidding, the next day you can already see how the redness is fading away and any recent pimples start to get smaller, as well as my pores on my cheek area! I had not seen a difference that fast with other popular products, but this one did. I highly recommend, the price is worth it. It really does improves your skin and it looks more healthy and glowing. In my opinion 10/10 :)." —Mariel Garza
Get it from Amazon for $13+ (available in three sizes).
19. A ChomChom pet hair roller that’ll make de-furring your carpets, your furniture, and yourself a breeze. Anything it picks up gets deposited into a little compartment for safe keeping; then you can open it up and get rid of it whenever you want. If everything you own is always covered in pet hair (me! It’s me! I’m talking about me!), this gadget is a godsend.
Promising review: "I have a golden retriever and the shedding is out of control. My fabric sofa is constantly covered in hair and I finally decided to try this after reading an article about popular TikTok products. The reviews do not lie, this thing works magic!! I wish I had taken a before and after picture because the difference is noticeable. I watched the video tutorial before I tried it to ensure I was using it properly and everything he says is true, you do really have to put your arm to work with vigorous back and forth movement! However, I find it's a great arm workout and it works wonders." —Joanne Ertel
Get it from Amazon for $29.99.
20. A cold brew coffee maker from Takeya, because it’s actually surprisingly easy — not to mention cost-effective! — to make the good stuff at home: All you have to do is pack in the ground coffee, fill the pitcher with water, and let the whole thing sit in your fridge overnight. What coffee lover doesn’t dream of having cold brew on demand?
Promising review: "I LOVE this product so much! I drink iced coffee on the daily but the system I had just wasn't cutting it for me. I didn't know how to brew cold coffee at home (all we have is a Keurig, and there's no cold brew option) so I would go buy iced coffee from Dunkin' every morning. Now don't get me wrong, i love my Dunkin', but I wanted to find a way to be able to make that same iced coffee at HOME, and I think my wallet and gas tank wanted me to figure that out too. I found out about this product through TikTok and it is a GAME CHANGER. All you have to do is put coffee grounds in the filter, fill up the main compartment 3/4 full with water (I use water from my fridge), screw the filter into the lid and screw the lid shut, shake it a little to put the coffee grounds to work, and let it do its magic for 12-24 hours! This is probably the best investment i've ever made. You need this!!" —Carmen E.
Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in two sizes).
21. A tube of First Aid Beauty’s KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub to help exfoliate every last inch of your skin without irritating it. With both AHAs — namely glycolic and lactic acid — and physical exfoliants (little pumice beads that — bonus! — are NOT microplastics), this scrub's formula does double duty clearing pores and buffing away rough skin.
Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok and Instagram. I decided to try it and it really works. I used it on my thighs and upper arms. I noticed a difference the first time and even more the second time!!! Fabulous product. Worth every penny." —Lana
Get it from Amazon for $12+ (available in three sizes).
22. A unique “pick ‘n peel” stone that’ll give your anxious soul something to pick at when the urge strikes. Tons of reviewers say picking at this latex glue-covered lava rock offers a super soothing solution to fidgeting needs of all kinds.
Check out a TikTok of the pick 'n peel stone in action.
Pick 'N Peel Stones is a Pennsylvania-based Etsy shop established in 2020 that specializes in pickable painted lava rocks.
Promising review: "I love my stones! I think it's a great idea and as someone who struggles with skin picking I have found these really helpful. I will definitely be buying some of the refill paint so that I can keep using them." —Etsy reviewer
Get it from Pick 'N Peel Stones on Etsy for $12.99.
23. A small-but-mighty milk frothing whisk, because why drink *regular* coffee at home when you could drink a *fancy latte* instead? Seriously. It's the affordable luxury you didn't know you needed in your life.
Promising review: "So I’ll admit I got this on a whim after a TikTok video, however I’m in love with this thing! It’s so much fun to use and you make your at home drinks feel so much more special. It’s easy to use and froths pretty quickly if you’re on the fence I’d say what are you waiting for buy it already!" —Denise
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in 55 styles).
24. A DampRid Hanging Bag to soak up excess moisture in your home. There’s enough humidity outside; you don’t need it inside, too. Whether things have gotten a little damp due to a plumbing leak or a just a window accidentally left open during a rainstorm, hanging this doohickey up wherever sogginess lurks can help dry things out and keep your environment pleasant. (No one likes stepping on squishy carpet or breathing musty air.)
Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok and had to try it. I had a leak under my kitchen sink, so I put one bag under there and within in a week the bag was practically full of water. I no longer have that wet damp smell. It is great and I will buy again if needed." —Kimberly Penro
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $22.44.
25. A container of Sol de Janeiro’s Brazilian Bum Bum Cream reviewers swear smells like sunshine itself. Packed with guarana extract, coconut oil, and caffeine, this body cream has long been a crowd favorite thanks both to its moisturizing super powers and its truly delicious scent.
Promising review: "Like so many, I was brainwashed by TikTok into buying this rather expensive lotion...then I bought one for my mom and one for my sister and five more for myself as they became harder to find. My favorite thing about it is the smell. Lightly tropical/coconutty but nothing overwhelming. Every time I wear it people say, 'What are you WEARING?' like I have some amazing perfume on. Besides that, it really is a great moisturizer. I’m not usually a sucker for marketing but this was so worth it." —Kristen
Get it from Amazon for $22+ (available in two sizes).
26. An astonishingly affordable mascara reviewers say works as well as — nay, better than — much, much pricier products. Essence’s ever-popular Lash Princess mascara packs both volume and length in a stays-all-day formula — and if you're on a budget, well, who says quality can’t also be bank account-friendly?
BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord says: Hello, that is my face above, because I bought into the hype of all the 5-star reviews and now I will never look back!! Putting it on is like giving my eyelashes butterfly wings. It doesn't get clumpy, it stays put ALL the livelong day no matter how much you sweat, and you can apply it on very lightly if you don't want it to look so dramatic, or continue applying for longer lashes each time.
Promising review: "Saw this product on TikTok and thought it would be expensive looking at the results they got. I am beyond amazed with how my lashes look after about two coats. For around $5 you couldn’t ask for a better mascara! I will be buying this same one when I run out. I was not expecting to like it as much as I do! No complaints." —Kd
Get it from Amazon for $4.99.
27. A 3D-printed wearable “chopstick,” so you can snack to your heart’s content without getting Doritos dust all over your fingers. Not gonna lie, snack-specific tweezers were not something I thought my world was missing — but I am questioning all my life choices now, including why I have yet to get myself a pair of these.
Ridha 3D Printing is a family-run, Michigan-based Etsy shop established in 2021 that specializes in 3D-printed gadgets and toys.
Check out a TikTok of the wearable chopsticks in action.
Promising review: "Perfect for what I wanted it for. Now I can game on my PC and eat snacks without getting my mouse and keyboard dirty! Thank you, such an amazing invention. 😊" —Leilani Calderon
Get it from Ridha 3D Printing on Etsy for $4.90+ (available in two styles and 23 colors).
28. A cropped workout tank that does double duty with a padded, built-in bra, because who doesn’t love a good wardrobe multitasker? It’s a sports bra! It’s a cropped cami! It’s cute on its own! It's cute with stuff layered over it! Heck yes!
TBH, this crossed my radar because of Stephanie Buttermore, a popular YouTuber who shares stories of her gym routines on Instagram.
Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok and was hesitant cause I’m used to buying, like, cheap $5 crop tops, but thank you to whoever on TikTok posted these because I’m gonna end up buying backups and every color. They’re so cute but still laid back and can be used from day to day going out or working out. They make the girls look great too without having to wear a bra underneath. A little pricey but so worth it." —Amy
Get it from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 20 colors).
29. A set of satin pillowcases that will ruin you for all other pillowcases. In addition to having cooling properties — a must if you run hot while you sleep (hi, hello, it’s me, I am a furnace during my unconscious hours) — they’re also super soothing for both your hair and your skin. Say goodbye to post-snooze tangles!
30. A literal “Glotion” — that is, an illuminating tinted moisturizer that’ll make you ~glow~. Excellent as both a lightweight foundation alternative or a source of shimmer usable with other bases, this pick will bring a little something extra to your daily skincare or makeup routine with basically no effort. Highlighter? I don’t even know ‘er — not with this stuff on hand.
Promising review: "Didn’t need this but bought this due to watching a TikTok. Pleasantly surprised by the magical erasing powers. This product has magic dust. Gives you a great glow and erases imperfections with the thinnest layer." —Kim Wilmot
Get it from Amazon for $10+ (available in four shades).
31. Some running shorts that strike the perfect balance between cute and practical. Airy for comfort + flouncy for fun = the workout gear of your dreams — and they're available in so! Many! Colors! Too!
Promising review: "I ordered these because I saw them on TikTok. I am 5’10 and 140 pounds. I ordered an extra large and they are perfect! They cover everything and are not too short. I highly recommend them especially for the price!" —MagnoliaBliss
Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 30 colors).
32. A set of energizing, citrus-scented shower steamers that’ll help you get your morning started right — or pep you up at the end of a long day if you’re a shower-at-night kind of person. Nothing transforms a plain shower into a Capital-E Experience like a refreshing cloud of orange, lemon, or grapefruit essential oils.
Promising review: "I kept seeing this product pop up on TikTok so I decided to buy a pack and I'm SO GLAD I DID! These smell so good and are a perfect way to relax while in the shower. I now recommend them to everyone I know!" —Merry
Get them from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in packs of six or 15; also available in six other scents).
33. A set of nifty bedsheet wad-preventers that’ll stop your sheets from getting all twisted up in the dryer, thus helping them actually dry better in the process. How? I mean, as far as I’m concerned, it’s magic — all you need to do is attach these doohickeys to the corners of your sheets before you throw ‘em in the dryer, and voilà: No more bunched-up sheets with smaller items stuck in the corner pockets and whatnot.
Wad-Free is a small business established in 2020 after the founder Cyndi Bray self-taught computer-aided design to create the pads.
Promising review: "THIS ACTUALLY WORKS!!!! I saw a TikTok about these and decided to order. Sheets balling all up in the washer and dryer has been a pet peeve of mine for forever. I was super skeptical of these, but I tried it, and it works as advertised! It’s a little on the expensive side IMO, and that’s kinda holding me back from purchasing a second set, but they really do work." —StrangerThings
Get a set of two from Amazon for $19.99.
34. A rechargeable, flameless lighter, so you can feed your scented candle obsession safely and effortlessly. The best part? When it’s out of juice, all you need to do is plug it into a USB port for a bit and it’ll be good to go all over again.
This also comes in other pretty colors, but BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord says she's especially partial to this one because she bought it for her parents (their kitchen is entirely pink and one of her favorite places on Earth). She says: "This was SO EASY to use — not to mention super safe! I'm a big weenie about fire (LOL, self-preservation) so I've always stuck to extended-arm gas lighters, but this is much better for the environment (plus cuter), so I feel a lot better about using it. You can read my full review of the Leejie electric lighter for more deets!"
Promising review: "Works like a charm. I saw this on a TikTok. Knew immediately that I needed it. I love candles and this is so much better than a match or lighter. It’s kept a charge for months. I use it several times a month." —dwhite3012
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in five colors).
35. A bottle of holographic nail polish in the shade Fake Halo from TikTok favorite brand Mooncat, so your fingertips can shine as brightly as you do. This unique shade appears differently depending on how the light catches it, shifting back and forth between rose gold and rainbow. RAINBOW. Ugh. So pretty.
Check out a TikTok of Mooncat nail polish in action.
Mooncat is a woman-owned, vegan, and cruelty-free small business founded by Michelle Lin, who shares on TikTok about how nail polish and art was a symbol of rebellion to her as she wasn't allowed to wear it growing up, which inspired her to create a line of unconventional polishes of her own.
Promising review: "I received my first one in the mail. It was so easy and smooth going on. Two coats later, AMAZING, vibrant, beautiful color. The way the light dances off of my nails, the sun shining off the polish, the prismatic guess have me mesmerized. Yep, I picked two more colors a week later. My daughter is now hooked as well. We love this polish and will be picking out a few more. This is the ONLY polish that we use now." —Johnine L.
Get it from Mooncat for $15.
36. A set of four microwave bowl holders, so you’ll never burn yourself pulling your hot soup out of the microwave again. Essentially bowl-shaped pot holders, they can go right in the microwave with whatever you’re heating up; that way, when the timer beeps and your food is done, you’ll have a layer of soft, heat-proof insulation ready and waiting to shield your hands from the screaming hot bowl. Genius, or genius?
Check out a TikTok of the microwave bowl holders in action.
Promising review: "Buy these for yourself and everyone you know. They are soft and fit a variety of sizes of bowls to put under them in the microwave and eat from. My kids love them. We bought some to gift to other people too, and I will get some for my son to use at college. Made of a heavy terry cloth that can be thrown right in the washer when needed. We used towels before under our bowls, but these cradle the bowls so are easier to hold. We bought some bigger plate sizes too." —Heidi J.
