1. A Flick Stick, aka a waterproof eyeliner stamp that creates a perfect wing — because if you're like me and usually have to redo your eyeliner a bajillion times, this is SO worth it. With this, you won't waste any time; all it takes is one stamp and DONE!
One side is the curved wing stamp, and the other is a regular fine tip liner for defining the rest of the eye. It comes in a pack of two, one for each eye.
The Flick Stick comes from New Zealand-based brand and small biz Lovoir Beauty.
Promising reviews: "I do a thousand things a day, at a thousand miles per hour and I wanted to keep my love for makeup alive without it feeling like a burden or taking too much time in the morning and this helped me so much. I've always struggled to get even wings with my liner and I'm really glad I got these because now they're pretty spot-on, every time!!" —Sunny315
Get it from Amazon for $14.98+ (available in three sizes and a combo pack).
2. A runaway alarm clock for those of you who "accidentally" snooze your alarm one too many times. You'll no longer be guilty of that, because this bad boy will play music and roll around until it's picked up. There will be no. more. tardies!
Includes four AA batteries.
Promising review: "This is the most amazing ALARM clock EVER!! I have had trouble for years waking up on time, but not any more thanks to this alarm clock!! You can't help but jump out of bed to the alien sounds and runaway movements of the clock. It's annoying at 5 a.m. BUT it does what it's supposed to do...WAKE YOU UP!! I will never live without this clock!!!" —MC Florida
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in seven colors).
3. A cold brew coffee maker that's perfect for the "iced coffee only" drinker who deals with the morning time crunch. With this, all you need to do is put grounds into the filter, add some water, and leave it in the fridge overnight. It'll be ready to drink the next day!
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 three-quarters 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 three colors and two sizes).
4. Or a hot-to-cold coffee device for those who need iced lattes even in the winter. (Guilty!) It can chill drinks in just *60 seconds*, and psst...it can also chill wine — um, yes please!
Promising review: "Got this as a gift for Father's Day, and it turned out better than expected! My dad likes drip coffee, but it's too hot to drink it black right away, so he used to let it cool in his mug on the way to work, but that takes too long. Now he keeps this in the freezer, pours the coffee from the pot into this, and then immediately pours it into his mug, and it's the perfect temperature. Gives this thing a quick rinse and back in the freezer for tomorrow. Simple, but it works and saves valuable time in the morning." —becca
Get it from Amazon for $11.81+ (available in five colors).
5. A popular-on-TikTok set of matte hair claws so you can put your hair up with a looser look compared to rubber bands. They'll have you looking put-together in just seconds! Plus they come in so many cute colors, they'll add some ~spice~ to your locks.
Former BuzzFeed Shopping editor Ciera Velarde says: "I've owned this set for about a year and I am reaching for them constantly! I used to be someone who would tie my hair up in a messy bun whenever I was doing things around the house, but I noticed how that would really start damaging my hair after a while. Instead, I just clip my hair back with one of these, and my long, thick hair stays in place without the claw jamming into my head. I have some other clips lying around that I should probably get rid of because I exclusively use these!"
Promising review: "I will admit I bought these from seeing them on TikTok and I needed new clips for my thick hair. I am not disappointed and beyond glad I got them. The colors are gorgeous and they stay put without hurting my head. I'm very impressed." —Jessica
Get a set of eight from Amazon for $6.98+ (available in 12 styles).

Get it from Amazon for $27.99 (available in three colors).
7. A set of magnetic lashes because the struggle of trying to put on falsies every day is too real. Thanks to the magnetic eyeliner these come with, you won't have to spend countless hours trying to put them on — just stick them on your eyelids. They're perfect for all eye shapes and come in all types of styles and volumes!
Promising review: "These eyelashes save me so much time in the morning. No longer applying mascara, waiting for it to dry, then curling with an eyelash curler to set. These magnetic eyelashes are fantastic, easy to apply, and stay on for hours. They even stay on in the wind. I can attest to this as I live on a lake, and it is frequently windy. You will not be disappointed, and you will love the value and quality of the lashes." —Ann T

9. An adorable TikTok-famous magnetic cloud key holder that def *won't* rain on your parade. Just stick your keychain on here when you get home so the next time you leave, you're not frantically searching for it.
Promising review: "So, yes, TikTok made me buy this, but so far I really like it. It's obviously very adorable and offers a charming spot to keep my keys that works with my entryway. I'm really surprised by how strong the hold is for such a small object — I carry my car fob and a few keys and so far it's holding strong. I hung it with Command strips to avoid any potential damage to the wall and I will say make sure it's level as the hold is not so good on an angle (but that was from the original in-hand testing). Definitely recommend and for the price, I'm very tempted to get one for my at-work office." —D. Carter
Get it from Amazon for $7.78.
10. A Tile Mate so when you're about to leave for work and you've just been searching and searching for your keys, you can just tap into the app on your phone and ring the Tile to hear its little jingle. You can attach one to basically anything and track its last known location with both iOS and Android devices!
The Bluetooth connection works up to 250 feet and if you're further than that, no worries! You can check the app to see the last known location. Or, if you happen to lose your phone, you can double-tap the Tile to find it! If you want to keep track of your wallet and can't connect a keychain to it, check out the Tile Slim.
Promising review: "Buy it. Just buy it. Have you ever been late and unorganized and you have everything but your keys? This little sucker can be activated through your phone and the keys sing a little song. You ever lose your phone but know where your keys are? You can use this to find your phone as well. I use it more to find my phone than my keys." —Manda Moore
Get it from Amazon for $24.88+ (available in two colors and two- and three- packs).
11. A well-loved "defunk" spray for those days when your hair smells a lil ~funky~ and you have no time to shower. Its plant extract formula helps to neutralize odors so you'll be smelling like fresh lavender and chamomile — aka no one will know it's been a week since you've washed your hair.

Get it from Amazon for $12.99.
12. Or a fragrant mist so even when you don't have time to shower, you'll smell ah-ma-zing. Just spray it all over your hair and body and get through the day knowing you smell dandy.
Promising review: "I was looking for something to spray on days I didn't wash my hair. This is WONDERFUL! It smells like the tropics. I just got it and already have had so many compliments." —Meredith Coartney
Get it from Amazon for $12+ (available in nine scents).
13. A refreshening clothing spray for those days when you NEED to wear your lucky shirt but you haven't washed it in days? weeks? months? Don't worry, this will refresh your clothes by eliminating odors *and* releasing wrinkles!
Promising review: "Great product. First time user. I travel a lot for work, wearing casual dress pants and sport jackets, dress shirts, etc. I can spray and hang for 15–20 minutes and the clothing looks great. The smell is nice and mild, and the wrinkle-resistance lasts most of the day. Very impressed and will recommend in future." —Tech Guy1987

Promising review: "As a college student with a full course load, I'm in and out of my room all the time. This helps me keep my clothes wrinkle-free without having to waste time ironing them. It's also great as it leaves a VERY nice smell on my clothes." —Seth

15. A bracelet holder so you can bedazzle and put the finishing touches on your outfit as you head out the door. It'll help you put on your favorite chain bracelet — without bending your wrists in ways they shouldn't be allowed to bend.
Promising review: "I can't believe I've waited this long to buy one of these. My eyesight is failing, including my depth perception, so wearing bracelets has been difficult unless they are slip-on. This jewelry helper is easy to use. Now I can wear bracelets again." —Cat Mom
Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (available in two colors and two-packs).
16. A set of elastic lock laces because taking the time to tie your shoes or undo a stubborn knot takes precious seconds away from your day. Just slip on your sneakers and take off!
Promising review: "I can't believe just how pumped I am over these shoelaces! They make me wanna slip my shoes off and on just because I can! They make my shoes more comfortable than I could have ever imagined (due to the elasticity). I have them set up to just the right amount of tightness to where I can just slip my shoes on and off without having to adjust them at all (and they are plenty tight). Welcome to the 21st century!" —dm925
Get them from Amazon for $8.99 (available in 13 colors).

Plus, this is shatter-resistant, dishwasher-safe, and comes with an ice cube tray and funnel! It's USB chargeable so there are no batteries required. ANNND it's quiet, so you'll feel comfortable making your smoothie at work.
Promising review: "I was on the hunt for a silent personal blender because mine is so loud and annoying to clean every morning when I just want one little drink. This little baby came up and it changed my life. MY LIFE. I blend it in my room and my roommate never hears it (we share a wall, too). I can take it to class and just throw it in my bag to clean when I get home. Saves a lot of time, and for $30 it’s pretty amazing." —Alex
Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in three colors).
18. A microfiber towel because showing up to work with wet hair may be a tad bit unprofessional. It's super absorbent, anti-frizz, and will dry your hair in no time without using heat!
Promising review: "Love love love these! I have long hair (almost to my waist) and I hate to have my hair dripping water right after shower, but I do not want to use my hair dryer at all times, so I just keep this wrapped up for a while and it does wonders! My hair is almost fully dry when I take this off (15–30 minutes max) and I feel relieved that I don’t have to carry the weight of a full towel around! The button is nicely placed and it’s easy to just wrap it around your head. I have one and my stepdaughter has the other, and we both love it!!" —Ana Davis
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $9.95+ (available in 19 colors).
19. A dry shampoo foam so you can refresh your scalp and locks without having to take your deluxe shower before work.
Promising review: "I have very very fine and fragile hair. It’s wavy (2b to 2c with some 3a curls mixed in). My ends are dry and my scalp gets very oily quickly. When the product arrived I was on second-day hair. I worked the foam through my roots and the sides on my head, the most oily places for me. It was easy to work through and it smells so fresh and clean. My results were amazing! My roots looked clean, no residue or buildup like powder-dry shampoos. My scalp does not itch, and it gives my fine, flat hair a ton of volume. Also, my hair looks thicker when I use it. I usually can’t go more than a day or two without washing my hair. With this product I was able to go four days without washing my hair." —Amelia Tilton
Get it from Amazon for $11.95.
20. Or an I Dew Care "Tap Secret" mattifying powder shampoo because we DO care about clean hair. Just tap, tap, tap the puff all over your scalp to tackle those greasy roots, without aerosol spray. No time for a wash? No problem!
Promising review: "I was looking for a dry shampoo that would be easy to use on the go for a trip I was taking. I had no issues taking this through TSA and it was so easy to use on the go. You literally just pat the puff on your scalp and then rub the powder in. I do have black hair so dry shampoo is usually very visible in my hair, but I didn't have any harder time than usual rubbing this powder in. It did a really good job of soaking up all the oil and giving my hair volume. I'm not a fan of the price for the amount that you get, but it is lasting longer than I thought it would. I would definitely recommend and will purchase again." —Teresa
Get it from Amazon for $18.
21. A trinket dish that you can keep by your front door or bedside table to hold your daily necessities — rings, keys, cash — so you'll never frantically look for them as you're running against the clock.
Casting Theory is a small biz based in Texas that handcrafts home goods with concrete!
Promising review: "I’ve ordered from this shop many times and love these little bowls. The size and shape feels great and they’re so versatile! I use them to hold crystals, candles, rings, and bracelets throughout my home." —Sarah

22. A highly rated Revlon hot air brush to dry and style hair at the same time so you won't have to take several steps in your styling routine. This one's for you "fashionably late" people!
Promising reviews: "I have mid-length 4c hair and this works perfectly! It doesn’t take too long to do. I started off on the low setting and went back over it with the cool setting. It really got the full length of my hair and my hair didn’t feel dry or damaged at all (I rinsed it and used hair lotion and combed out my hair before I used the dryer)." —Jess
"I kept seeing this all over social media. I assumed it was a gimmick and I wasn't going to love it, let alone like it. I was going to use it, and figured with Amazon's amazing return policy I was probably gonna just return it. What do I have to lose? I have wavy/curly hair. Normally, my hair is still frizzy after I blow it out with a round brush and dryer. I have to add product to smooth it out and then go over with my iron. Not anymore. No more adding smoothing gels and serums that just weight down my hair, making it look dirty, or flat ironing it after. And...it feels so soft. And it lasts. Currently on day three of waking up with the best hair ever. What is this magical device?!?" —Kelli Michele
Get it from Amazon for $40.26+ (available in nine styles).
23. A shower timer that may seem a lil' silly, but trust me, you can def lose track of time when you're in your warm, steamy shower. Plus it doubles as a clock so you can use it whichever way works best for you!
You can either set it up with its stand or you can suction it against the wall! It requires two AAA batteries — get some here.
Promising review: "I’ve never kept a clock in my bathroom, and as a result always found myself losing the time and running late in the morning (I know, that’s my own bad habit.) Finally I had the *genius* idea to put a clock in my bathroom but I don’t have much counter space or an extra AC outlet to plug one into so it wasn’t working out. Finally I found this battery-powered (yes!), waterproof (yes!!) clock that I could just stick to the wall on my mirror (triple yes!). I even use the countdown feature to make sure I get out the door on time. I loved it so much I got a second to put inside my actual shower (I used to hang a watch over the towel rack to keep time) and I couldn’t be happier. Super stylish and easy to use. Whenever guests come by they want to know where they can get one and are stunned by the reasonable price. Love it!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $21.95 (available in four colors).
24. A toothbrush holder and dispenser so you don't have to squeeze out toothpaste yourself — because every second you save is time added to your life.

Promising review: "Works great! The mount it comes with sticks great to our mirror. It will fit any type of standard toothpaste and has four cups you can use. Really great and saves so much time and room on our sink." —Cassie P.

25. A zipper puller for those hard-to-reach areas on your tops and dresses when no one is around to help. You can let out a big sigh knowing that you won't be late to the party because you were struggling to zip your dress.
Promising review: "I purchased this zipper puller for a very dear friend of mine. She recently lost her husband after 62 years together. She loves to dress up and was concerned that she would not be able to wear dresses with back zippers; that was always her husband's job. She was so thrilled when I gave her this gift, she actually cried. Sometimes the smallest of gifts brings so much happiness."—reds
Get it from Amazon for $9.95+ (available in three colors).
26. A brush color removal sponge that's perfect for anyone running low on makeup brushes or time! After you use your brush for eyeshadow, you can just dab it on here (no water required) for about three seconds and *poof* a completely clean brush.
Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes has to say about it: "I picked up this color removal sponge from Amazon after hearing about this hack on TikTok and can testify that it actually works SO well. I'm *so* bad about cleaning my brushes (I know...shameful), and this makes it super easy to clean a brush in a matter of seconds. So even if I'm trying to do a *slightly* more elaborate eyeshadow look for the day, this makes the process of switching colors as quick and painless as possible. Also, it's *super* lightweight, and I've already tossed it in my bag and brought it on vacation with me. This is one of those products I won't be traveling without in the future if I plan on doing eyeshadow at any point — and it means you only need to pack one or two eyeshadow brushes!"
Promising review: "This has saved me so much time switching between brushes. A few swipes and all the shadow that was on your brush comes off completely." —Stacey
