    27 Products That Have Wild Before-And-After Photos *And* Are Under $25

    These before-and-afters are truly a sight to behold.

    1. A dry shampoo powder that'll freshen up your oily lil' head, allowing you to sleep in a little longer and avoid washing your hair for one more glorious day.

    2. A cast-iron scrubber, because there are two simultaneous truths about cast irons: they are one of the best things for cooking and one of the worst things when it comes to cleaning. This chainmail tool will help you scrape off any leftover bits of food without removing that seasoning you've worked so hard to cultivate.

    3. An ink remover that'll rescue hard surfaces and fabrics alike from the enemy to end all enemies — permanent marker.

    4. A vitamin C serum to lessen dark circles, sun spots, redness, and breakouts — the perfect beginner product for anyone trying to get into the skincare and serum game.

    5. A set of clear plastic bins that'll transform your beauty junk drawer into your beauty beauty drawer.

    6. An Aztec Secret face mask to suck sebum out of pores, leaving your skin feeling smoother and breakouts feeling calmer. Pretty much everyone on the planet has tried this miraculous clay mask — give it a go!

    7. A tube of Lanolips 101 Ointment Superbalm that'll prevent your lips from getting dry as can be this winter. Nobody should have to suffer from chapped lips, and as long as Lanolips is on-hand, they don't have to.

    8. A bottle of Bar Keepers Friend cleaning solution to scrub rust, surface scratches, burnt grease, and even Sharpie marks away with *way* less elbow grease than you would normally have to use.

    9. A fabric defuzzer so you can salvage sweaters, accessories, and *anything* that has fallen victim to pilling and shedding. Hello, "new" wardrobe.

    10. A bottle of Finish booster powder to erase any hard water stains that have been plaguing your glasses. Simply add this in with your dishwasher soap for good-as-new dishes in a snap.

    11. A foot file that's helped tons of people cheese grate their way to beautiful feet. Yeah, I know how that sounds, but for baby-soft heels without getting a pedi? Arguably worth it.

    12. A set of two-tier sliding basket drawers so the cabinet under your sink can finally have some semblance of organization! Chances are, you've never even considered tidying up under there, so it's about dang time.

    13. A wheel cleaner that'll convince everyone you have a brand new car. Wild what a little TLC and one great cleaner can accomplish.

    14. A jewelry cleaning pen to keep your most prized possessions A.S.A.P. (As Sparkly As Possible).

    15. A bottle of dandruff shampoo so you don't have to go about your day stressing about any flakes that may be visible in your hair. Even though everyone gets dandruff and it's no big deal, it can get stressful when it feels out of your control!

    16. A makeup brush shampoo, because you are cleaning your makeup brushes...right...? It's not as scary as it sounds, I promise — especially with this shampoo on your team!

    17. A wood polish and conditioner so you can throw a relaxing spa day for your antiques. Formulated with beeswax and orange oil, it'll hide dings and scratches and add some natural luster back to any pieces that are looking dull.

    18. A three-piece produce storage container set for keeping all of your produce as fresh as can be until you're ready to eat it. No more having to toss your strawberries before you even got a chance to enjoy them.

    21. Thayer's Witch Hazel toner to cleanse your skin while reducing redness, breakouts, and dullness. It also smells like roses — as if you needed another reason to give it a try.

    22. A pack of Bottle Bright tablets so you can rescue all the tumblers you've let sit for wayyy too long. Don't toss them! Just give 'em the old Bottle Bright treatment and they'll be back in service in no time.

    24. A bottle of wrinkle releaser spray that will fool everyone into thinking you wake up early to iron every day when the reality is you roll out of bed after hitting snooze four times and spray down whatever you pick up off the floor.

    25. A hand cream to keep your mitts smooth as can be. See ya later, cracks and irritation, we will now wave goodbye to you with our newly soft hands!
