1. Bed sheet fasteners so you can ensure your sheets actually stay in place, no matter how all over the place you are in your sleep. These will also make it easier and quicker to make your bed in the morning!
Promising review: "I have a pillow-top and pillow-bottom queen-sized bed that is a little too small for king sheets and with queen sheets I have battled to keep the sheets from popping off. I have tried everything! I was about to try to customize some king sheets because it was so frustrating. Then I saw this product advertised on Facebook in one of those posts about the amazing products that people love. So I figured it was worth a try. It works. I was shocked. My sheets have not popped off once. I ordered this in February and it is May now — and they have not popped off once! They used to pop off EVERY...SINGLE...NIGHT. To say this is life changing is not an exaggeration. Such a relief to be able to sleep through the night without ending up in rumpled sheets." —TinkerbellAPixie

Each planner comes with 50 tear-off sheets the size of a standard piece of paper.
Promising review: "These notepads helped me reframe and focus everyday working from home during the pandemic. I used to use a daily planner but working from home changed how I need to plan my work tasks, and personal tasks. I found this helpful for both!" —kristenjoann
Get it from Amazon for $11.29.
3. Or an acrylic dry-erase board that can be used to list out all of the things mentioned above, but in a way that's on display in your home (and doesn't involve paper).

4. A winged eyeliner stamp so you can cut down time during your makeup routine trying to nail the perfect cat-eye. Just stamp it on and go, go, gooooo!
5. Anti-chafing thigh bands to help prevent the dreaded pain that comes anytime you decide to wear something during warm weather szn that isn't pants. Plus, these are super pretty, so you don't have to worry if your dress, skirt, or shorts don't cover them all the way!
Promising review: "We can finally toss the deodorant...these things work! I was hella skeptical because my thighs are resistant to any sort of chub rub defense. I wore them while walking at least five hours at a music festival and they stayed put without me ever needing to adjust them! I couldn't believe it! My delicate inner thigh skin was preserved; no chub rub and they're so feminine and romantic-looking that I didn't even care if someone caught a peek of that beautiful lace. Way sexier than my usual biker shorts. Love that I can wear dresses all day now without worrying about my thighs overheating." —OceanHips
Get them from Amazon for $20.69 (available in 17 styles and six sizes).
6. A mouse jiggler so your computer doesn't mistake you walking away for a few minutes to whip up a snack and make a drink as signing off work for the day. The #WFHStruggle is real.

Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in eight styles).
7. A set of antimicrobial toothbrushes featuring "floss" bristles that provide a deeper clean by actually reaching between your teeth (bye bye little food bits hiding in there) and are formulated with nano-silver, aka it self-cleans yucky-ness left behind on your bristles after you brush. Your other toothbrushes simply cannot relate!!!
Mouthwatchers is a small biz that sells antimicrobial toothbrushes, fluoride-free toothpaste, as well as bundle sets and travel-sized options!
My colleague Emma Lord owns this toothbrush and loves it! Here's what she has to say about it:
"I personally just bought this and love it just after the first few days of use! I use an electric toothbrush usually, but I feel like I'm getting a much more satisfying clean from these?? Especially because I tend to get yellow stains between my teeth no matter *how* much I floss, and these bristles seem to actually target that a lot more effectively."
Get a pack of four from Amazon for $16.06+ (available in five color combinations).
8. A Dawn Powerwash dish spray capable of cutting through grease five times faster than regular dish soap. Now you can spend less time doing the dishes and more time watching The White Lotus as you digest your dinner.
Promising review: "Dawn is a soap that I think most people are familiar with. This is Dawn, but about 50x stronger! I used to dread cleaning pots and pans, but Dawn Platinum Powerwash makes that chore a lot quicker and and the pots and pans cleaner. Note: you get the original spray bottle plus three refills, so when you run out of the product in the bottle, it’s no problem. I would highly recommend this cleaning power house! I don’t think there is anything else on the market even close to what this does." —Phoenix Tyler
Get a spray bottle and three refills from Amazon for $12.16.
9. Lock Laces — a super smart invention that'll turn your laced-up shoes into slip-ons because being interrupted mid-run by your shoe laces coming undone and trying to trip you is SUCH a vibe killer...not to mention, also a major safety hazard.
Promising review: "Purchased two pairs for my running shoes. They work very well, and I have put a bunch of miles on them. No more tying/untying, just slip on. I like how they keep unified tension across the entire laces from top to bottom. I have had no issues with the lace lock at all, it snapped in well." —Scott
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in 13 colors).
10. A primer with a cult-following because this stuff may help reduce the appearance of pores AND can assist in seamless makeup application. It's a win-win.
My colleague Emma Lord swears by this primer. Here's what she has to say about it:
"LOL, allow me to be the one to shout to GRAB THIS WHILE YOU CAN. Every time I've run out of it I've gotten mad at myself because, thanks to TikTok, it's constantly out of stock. Now is finally our chance!"
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!!" —Brooks Crim
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
11. A cold brew coffee maker for enjoying a yummy iced coffee treat all spring long without having to wait on line at the Starbucks drive-thru.
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 $21.49+ (available in two sizes).
12. A handy little car seat key that'll make unbuckling your little one's car seat a piece of cake. The brand boasts this is especially useful for those with acrylic nails, carpal tunnel, or arthritis, but those buckles can just be finicky sometimes so you may wanna keep this in your bag regardless!
Promising review: "After I had my first child almost a year ago, I stopped getting acrylic nails because I couldn't get him out of his car seat without struggling or breaking a nail. I’d have to get them as an overlay or extra short. But I saw this product on TikTok and had to try it out and omg!! It works! It took me a while to figure out the best angle to get him out with it but once I did I went to the nail shop expeditiously!! If you’ve been thinking about this for a while, GET IT! It’s worth it!" —Tora318
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in six colors).
13. And while we're on the topic of products that may just help make life a little easier for those with carpal tunnel or arthritis, a foam grip — simply slide it over your pen or pencil and enjoy a more comfy writing experience.
The Cheeky Turtle is a small biz based in Snohomish, Washington that sells foam grips, needle minders, painting pens, and more!
Promising reviews: "I really love how these grips feel in my hand!! I injured my hand from too much painting with a tiny paintbrush. As a full-time artist, I’m hoping that these grips will help me prevent future injuries and strain." —Stephanie Rzonca
"I got this for my best friend, because she loves to crochet! She kept mentioning it get uncomfortable for long projects and I thought this would be perfect for her! So, I ordered it in like green, which is her fave color. She absolutely loves it! And it helps her for the longer projects. I’m happy I purchased it!" —Amber Lajaunie
Get it from The Cheeky Turtle on Etsy for $7.50+ (available in two styles and four colors).
14. A heatless curling rod so you can achieve easy, breezy curls all without having to turn on hot styling tools.
This set comes with a curling rod, a claw hair clip, two duckbill hair clips, and two hair scrunchies. It works best when rolled with damp hair and boasts being compatible with all hair types.
Promising review: "Before purchasing, I’d seen a lot of reviews and tutorials on TikTok showing the results. My hair is thick, coarse, and naturally wavy, so I figured this might be a good alternative to rollers that are time-consuming to put in, difficult to sleep in, and ultimately not worth it. And MAN was I right to be hopeful. Wrap pieces of damp hair around it before bed, the tighter the wrap, the tighter the curl. Easy to sleep in since there’s nothing on the back of your head, and my curls are BOUNCY the next morning. My only complaint is that it doesn’t help give any top-volume, but nothing some teasing can’t fix. 10/10. I’ll never go back to a curling iron." —Mariah
Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in six colors).
15. A cleaning checklist to help make the overwhelming task of spring cleaning your living space feel manageable. This printable sheet organizes cleaning tasks by different rooms on different days of the week so you don't feel like you have to tackle everything all at once.
Creative Type Store is woman-owned and based in Warman, Canada. It sells illustrated prints to help make your life more organized.
Promising review: "Great for what I needed! I had started my own schedule, but felt like I was forgetting things, too much to do in a day, etc. This is super helpful!" —Erin Brie
Get it from Creative Type Store on Etsy for $4.26.
16. A SwitchBot — a super cool gadget for turning an appliance or light switch in your home into a smart device. What could be better than getting out of bed and walking into your kitchen to your morning java already brewed for you? Nothing, that's what.
Promising review: "Super great! Comes with clear instructions, the mobile app is clear and well designed, and it's super easy to set the whole thing up. Honestly I'm really happy with the product. Now I don't have to get up all the time when I inevitably forget to turn the lights off. I can just hit the button on my phone and VOOP the little arm comes out and presses the switch!" —Noah R.
Get it from Amazon for $29+ (available in white and black).
17. A detangling brush that claims to works better at gliding through knotty hair easily and efficiently.
Promising reviews: "I’ve been using this brush for at least 10 years and I’ve had to re-purchase it a couple of times because I lose them over the years. This is my third time purchasing it and I loved to see this cute little set in a different colorway. My hair is 4c and I’ll be using this brush for the rest of my life as long as they keep making them!" —DD
"I've tried a few detangling brushes recently and been very underwhelmed. But this is the ONE! Amazing detangling both wet and dry, and the perfect brush for brush-styling my 3A curls with the right amount of tension. I use the travel size in the shower for distributing conditioner through my hair and found that it makes an amazing scalp scrubber as well!" —KD
Get it from Amazon for $16.95 (available in three styles and more brush options here).
18. Glass meal prep containers because perhaps re-creating your favorite Lunchables-style boxes with your choice of meat/cheese, fruits/veggies, and snacks will get you excited enough about bringing food from home and you'll finally save money by not ordering to your office's Sweetgreen outpost...again.
They're microwave- and dishwasher-safe. Plus, this set comes with to-go cups perfect for storing sauce, dip, and dressing!
Promising review: "Amazing! Best bento-style lunch container I have found so far! Easy to clean and lunch can be reheated in the oven (or microwave)! The glass is nice and thick, and if you are clumsy, no worries, hasn’t broken yet even though I drop it all the time! Nice deep sections allow for a LOT of food!" —Danielle
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $31.99 (also available in a four- and five-pack).
19. A makeup brush color removal sponge — the last time you did your makeup was Saturday night before going out with your friends and you used the most gorgine shimmery charcoal shadow for your smoky eye. But now it's Monday morning and you wanna wear a lighter, more subtle shadow color to your office and only have so much time to get ready. Just swipe your brush a few times over the sponge, and voila! Good as new and no water or chemicals required!
Promising review: "This product makes it even easier for me to be lazy when it comes to cleaning my brushes. It also allows me to use the same brush for a makeup look since I can swish away a previous shadow and move on to the next. Great buy. Super easy to wash. I'm not going anywhere anytime soon, but when I do finally travel again, I'm sure this will be excellent to travel with and make it so that I only need to bring one or two brushes." —Azaleah Bumpus-Barnett
Get it from Amazon for $5.99.
20. A pill tracker for attaching to any pill bottle or packets you may be taking so you can accurately keep track of your daily dosage. No more frantically trying to remember every single move you made that day or panicking because you forgot to set a reminder on your phone.
Promising review: "This is a lifesaver! I’ve been looking for something like this for years. I always forget 10 minutes later if I actually took my medicine or just put it down. I’ve tried so many different ways, making marks on the bottle, making stickers, and other pill containers. None ever work. And pill containers are so bulky when I only need one pill." —Niki
Get a pack of five from Amazon for $19.99.
21. A set of underarm sweat pads you're gonna feel so grateful for on those mornings you're rushing out the door 10 minutes late, Starbucks is taking their sweet time working on your mobile order, the train is running at a snail's pace, and you have a big presentation to give once you get to the office. We won't tell your boss your pits are perspiring up a storm if you don't.
Promising review: "I love these. I have a few cute summer dresses with sleeves — eeek! The first time I tried the shields it was 104 degrees at an outdoor event, and I was sweating bullets! The shields worked BEAUTIFULLY. Not a sweat stain in sight." —Cosmic Girl
Get a pack of 24 from Amazon for $14.99.
22. Or sweat-absorbing bra liners if you're someone who gets as sweaty during your warm weather morning commute as you would have if you went to the gym before work. We get the struggle and we're here to help.
23. A set of no-crease hair clips so you don't have to risk messing up your gorgeous blow-out just because you need to keep your hair out of your face during makeup application.
Promising review: "I'm a hair-before-makeup girly and these bad boys DO NOT CREASE your hair just like it says (: I pin the front pieces back after I've finished my hair, and leave them pinned while doing my face and when I'm done you would never be able to tell I had them pinned back!! They are also sooo much cuter than a thicccc headband on my head, which is what I was using. 10/10!!!" —Amanda Bailey
Get a set of eight from Amazon for $6.99 (available in six set sizes and three color variations).
24. A magnet to help ensure you know if the dishes in your machine are clean or still dirty so you don't run a double wash or worse...accidentally eat off a clean-looking-but-still-dirty plate. And what better way to be given this important info than Harry Styles relaying the important message to you?
25. A studded Starbucks cup-inspired straw cover perfect for putting on your next venti caramel macchiato during your morning commute so it doesn't spill or worse...a little buggy flies into your overpriced drink.
Luxury Creations Co. is a small biz that sells nail art decals, keychains, and other cute gifts!

Get it from Luxury Creations Co. on Etsy for $5 (available in 11 colors).
26. A pack of hair-drying scrunchies because sometimes there's just no time to towel or blow-dry your hair between showering and having to head out the door. Just tie your hair up with one of these babies and let it do the work for you. Psst — these are also great for bringing to the pool or beach.
Kitsch is a woman-owned biz based in LA that sells hair products!
Promising review: "I ordered this because I was sick of keeping a towel on my head for so long while my hair dried, and if I didn't have a towel, my shirt was soaking wet from my hair after a shower. For reference, I had very long, thick hair and it takes a while to air-dry — and I'm so happy I found this scrunchie! It's a lot bigger in person than it looks in the image, which is great because it covers more of your hair to help dry it. No more heavy towels on my head or tight towel wraps." —Meghan
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in seven colors and designs).
27. A makeup remover stick you're gonna be so grateful you have around on those mornings when your eyeliner just won't cooperate, you seemingly forgot how to apply lipstick, and your body decides to produce a sneeze right after you've finished putting on mascara.
Promising review: "Why didn’t someone think of this sooner? For years, I’ve been using cotton swabs dipped in makeup remover to remove little goofs or mistakes. This is so much better and portable! Erases waterproof mascara marks around my eyes easily. Must-buy product!!" —Katherine
Get it from Amazon for $7.97.
28. A pack of AirPods Pro ear hooks that are a must-have for anyone who is all too familiar with the struggle of their wireless earbuds constantly trying to plan their escape. They belong in your ear, not on the subway tracks
My colleague Jasmin Sandal owns these AirPods Pro ear hooks and loves them, here's what she has to say:
"I recently ordered these little lifesavers, and I have to say I am...forgive me Lord for I'm about to pun...HOOKED. I'm obsessed with my AirPods Pro as they are, I use them every day for calls and music-listening purposes, but can never leave the house with them in fear of them dropping out of my ears. (If I so much as smile or laugh, they fall out!) Well fear no more, because since I've started using these super-reliable silicone hooks, I've taken my Pods on runs and walks with absolutely no sign of slippage. I highly recommend these for anyone else who'd finally like to use their AirPods Pro in peace."
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $13.95+ (available for both generations of AirPods Pro).
29. And of course, we couldn't forget about wireless headphone hooks for those with classic AirPods — because nothing ruins a day quite like losing one earbud and realizing you can't replace just one, you have to buy a whole new set. So frustrating!
Promising review: "Overall works great. I do about 30 minutes of running each day and after I started sweating, my AirPods would start slipping out and I'd have to adjust them back into my ears constantly. This product works great and holds them in. They won't stay super tight in your ear necessarily, but they only move out a little over time. The difference for me was adjusting once during my workout instead of every two minutes while running. Highly recommend if you're looking to keep your AirPods in your ears during workouts." —ChrisW
Get a pair from Amazon for $10.99+ (available in four colors).
30. A collapsible travel cup so you can head to work in the morning with a fresh cup of coffee to sip on during your commute and easily fold it down and store away in your bag at the end of the day for a mess-/bulk-free trip home.
Stojo is a small biz that sells reusable and collapsible kitchen/travel products!
Promising review: "I take my lunch to work and during midday I like to use the Keurig to brew a cup of coffee. The 12-ounce Stojo cup I purchased is very practical. It is thick and durable. The plastic collar enables you to hold the cup without squeezing it or burning your hands on the hot walls of the cup. It seals well so you don't have to worry about leaking your drink on your shirt. It even has some reasonable thermal properties. There is enough volume in the cup to allow for the 12-ounce brew plus ample creamer. It's not a stainless vacuum cup, but it does hold its temperature better than your typical gas station or coffee shop cup. Plus you have the advantage of being able to reheat your drink in the microwave, which you can't do with a stainless cup. Washes easily too. If you want a 12-ounce cup that keeps your drink hot or cold for a long time, this isn't the cup for you. But if you need something practical that will keep your coffee warm for 30–45 minutes, can be reheated in a microwave, and collapses to the dimensions of a tall hockey puck, this is a good purchase. You'll have it for years." —ViciousCycle
Get it from Amazon for $14.95+ (available in four sizes and 24 colors).
