1. A saline nasal gel to assist in restoring moisture to your dry, irritated nose. Between cold winter air and allergy season around the corner, this little under-$5 solution may just help you out.
Reviewers say this is also helpful if you use CPAP machines or fly (it helps deal with dry air on a plane).
Promising review: "I don't like to talk about it, but every year, my nose becomes super dry to the point where I sometimes get a bloody nose. I usually use some squeeze saline, but it got so bad this year that I decided to get this gel. A dab on a finger or a swab and my nose is hydrated, moistened, and not dry as a desert. No winter bloody noses! It is very light, is not slimy or like Vaseline, and it does not have any smell." —Catherine

2. A nail and cuticle care solution that can help your nails look fresh and healthy with consistent use over time — just apply a coat and let it wow you!
Promising review: "This product is amazing. I've always had acrylic or dipped nails because my real nails have always been brittle and always break and peel. I decided to give my nails a break and wanted to try and grow them out. I can't even believe the outcome! They are stronger than ever and growing! I really wish I had taken a before pic to show the difference!" —JOE D.
Get it from Amazon for $9.90 (also available in two other sizes).
3. Schick Silk touch-up tools perfect for painless, precise eyebrow shaping, cleaning up peach fuzz hairs on your face, and even clearing away dead skin. These little guys go a long way.
Promising review: "I'm a hairy gal. Hormonal problems were ruled out by my physician; it's just hereditary. My cheeks, neck, forehead, and chin are covered in a fine, ever-growing peach fuzz. If I cease shaving, I shall acquire a boat and thus forth be dubbed blonde beard. My mustache is darker and thicker, something I think a lot of women experience. I have been shaving for a while with a men's razor (Gillette Fusion ProGlide for reference) and shaving cream, but it just couldn't give me a close enough shave. ENTER SCHICK SILK TOUCH-UP! Holy wow! I've been dry-shaving my entire face and some of my neck with these, and no irritation. Plus, it is the closest shave I have gotten. No pulling or scraping like other 'mini razors.' So very efficient for doing your whole face, and easy for detailing those brows. I love this product and hope that they sell it forever. It works on my peach fuzz, mustache, and brows. If I ever get word that they are going to stop making them, I will hoard them all." —Dr. Eleanor Abernathy

4. A set of acne patches you can apply over areas where you're breaking out. Simply put the patch over a zit, let it sit overnight or throughout the day, peel it off, and watch it take all the pore-clogging gunk with it.
Read our Hero Cosmetics Mighty Patch review!
I suffer from hormonal acne — it's just something that I have come to terms with and will have to deal with for many more years to come, and while it's not fun, these acne patches make it sooo much easier. When I have a pimple about to come to a head, I pop one of these babies on it before bed and then peel it off along with all the gunk it pulls out. It definitely helps speed up the process, and they're gentle on my sensitive skin!
Promising review: "OMG! It actually works! My son gets really large acne breakouts that are really hard to heal. He put these on before bed and woke up to his large white pimples being gone! Like, completely gone. I usually pay $50 a visit to the dermatologist for 30 minutes for him to get extractions, which is pretty painful for him. We will be ordering more of these and using these instead!! If I could give more stars, I would!" —Amazon Customer

5. And because we're huge fans of letting hydrocolloid patches solve our problems, may we also recommend these overnight nose strips to help clean out zits/clogged pores taking up residency near your schnozz.
Promising review: "It's gross in the most spectacular way. The amount of disgusting gunk that came out of my face was appalling, and I instantly gagged. However, my nose has never felt so clean and smooth for consecutive days. If you have oily skin, I definitely recommend washing your face first and applying it to the nose before moisturizing the rest of your face. If I could give this 10 stars, I would. Everyone is getting this for Christmas...maybe because it's not cheap." —Justina
Get 10 patches from Amazon for $16.55.
6. A callus-removal gel so you can experience the baby-soft feet you not only want but truly deserve. Soak your feet for two to three minutes in hot water, dry them, and apply a generous layer of the gel to your calloused feet. Then let it sit for three minutes, wipe it off, use a foot scrubber of your choice, and bam — dead skin begone.
If you're looking for recs for a good foot file, we adore this one that you can get from Amazon for $9.99!
Promising review: "Best foot callus remover I have ever used! I read a lot of the reviews before purchasing this product. Most callus removers I have purchased in the past were not very effective. So, I was encouraged by the reviews. I saw that a lot of reviewers mentioned being very careful not to leave it on longer than three or four minutes. My feet were the softest they had ever been. Love love love." —Cheri whisker
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
7. An aftercare oil that may help reduce the appearance of keloids, bumps, and scars associated with new and old piercings.
Note: This product is not an overnight miracle. Apply this 2–3 times a day; be patient, and you may start to see the results.
Talk to your doctor before attempting to treat your keloid on your own, and learn more about keloids from Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: "This product is amazing! Truly a miracle product. I had an AWFUL keloid forming near my nose piercing about six weeks after getting it done, and it was getting bigger and more irritated by the day. Nothing was helping. I bought this and started using it, and in less than two weeks, my huge keloid was completely gone! I was definitely skeptical and a little nervous when it didn’t seem to be getting noticeably smaller after a week, but then, the second week, it started totally disappearing, so give it some time to work if your bump is on the larger side. If you remain patient and apply it twice a day, it should do the trick!" —Jordan Caprigno
Get it from Amazon for $12.85 (also available in multipacks).
8. A KP body scrub for buffing away red bumps. Use it one to two times a week for smoother skin — it's like a microdermabrasion treatment at a fraction of the cost and without leaving the house.
Promising review: "Amazing! I am so happy to say this product is a game-changer! I have always been so embarrassed by the extremely red and bumpy skin on my arms above my elbow. I've tried tons of products with zero sign of improvement. I always moisturize daily, and nothing has ever helped. I have used this product two times, and the skin on my arms is almost all the same color, and the bumps are gone! I could cry. I am so grateful for this product. It doesn't have any kind of smell, which is perfect cause I can pair it with any moisturizer I like." —Lynn
Get it from Amazon for $12+ (available in three sizes and a two-pack).
9. A biotin shampoo that could help hair look thicker by strengthening strands to prevent breakage. It's made with a blend of botanical extracts to help nourish and cleanse your scalp.
Read more about how biotin shampoo could help with the fullness of hair at Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: "I was a bit skeptical about all of the claims with this product and gave myself a few months before I wrote a review. This product delivers. My hair loss has diminished tremendously, probably about a fraction of hair loss compared to a few months ago. And my hair is full and shiny. Very happy with the product. At first, it seemed pricey, but the product goes a long way. I highly recommend giving this shampoo a try. Very worthwhile investment." —jdg
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes).
10. Or a shadow powder for those looking to touch up their roots or fill in areas where their hair is a little thinner. All you have to do is tap the powder and fill!
This stuff is cruelty-free and contains plant fibers and beeswax, so it's safe to use on your skin.
Promising review: "This product is AMAZING! If you have thinning hair or graying hair, this powder is a must-have. It even creates a bit of volume in my very thin hair. I've purchased many different hair products to conceal my thinning hair, most of which are ineffective, messy, or leave my hair feeling greasy. This is super easy to use; I even use it for my sparse eyebrows. I simply use a soft, small lip liner brush to fill in my brows for a natural look. I also love that it lasts till your next shampoo. At first, I didn't like the built-in sponge, but I've grown to really like it. The powder sticks to the sponge, making it easy to apply to whatever area you want to cover up, and the powder doesn't come off on pillows if you leave it on overnight." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $8.98 (available in 14 shades).
11. A nail concealer to help cover up yellow tones and staining and give the illusion of polished nails without having to actually polish them or go to the salon for a manicure.
Londontown is a small biz that sells nail products!
Promising reviews: "As a 62-year-old woman who gardens, cleans house, etc., I needed something that improved the look of my nails without looking cheap or crappy. This was more than I wanted to spend on nail polish...but totally worth it. Two coats showed NO ridges and looked better than natural without looking fake or cheap. Totally worth it!" —Unbiased Independent Reviewer
Get it from Amazon for $20 (available in five shades).

12. Cleaning tablets that'll make you realize the important task of sanitizing your retainer, dentures, night guard, or any other dental appliances you may use can be quick and easy. Simply drop a tablet along with your dental appliance into warm water and let it soak!
Promising review: "I really loved this product. I am currently waiting for a new Invisalign set. My old Invisalign needed to be cleaned. I read the reviews and decided to purchase. OMG, it worked! They had a fresh taste and were clean. I wish I had found this product sooner. I did let them soak overnight only because I had been wearing them for the last four months. Nothing happened to Invisalign; there was no weakness or anything. Just very clean and fresh. If I could have given the product 10 stars, I would have." —Lisa R.

13. Compound W One Step Pads for applying to plantar warts — they look like bandages, but they're working hard to remove those stubborn little guys.
Promising review: "This stuff works! I’ve never had a wart in my life! At first, I thought it was a small callus but as months went by it was getting larger. I started to google and realized I had a plantar wart on my thumb! Eww, embarrassing! So I got the Freeze Off and thought, 'This has to work!' Nope! I tried the Freeze Off three times, and nothing! I then realized the same thing was happening on my other thumb, a small callus. The wart had spread! Now I was desperate to get rid of them and knew I had waited too long! Bought the invisible strips and it removed my small wart in four days and my big wart in eight!! I couldn’t believe it. I left strips on for two days then pulled back the dead skin with a cuticle clipper and reapplied! My bigger wart was a little tougher to removed and I had irritated my skin trying to cut it out, so I left it alone for few days before reapplying strip and by the second 48-hour treatment, it was gone! I thought my skin would be damaged but it looks like nothing was ever there!" —Audrey N.
Get 14 pads from Amazon for $7.29.
14. A bottle of dandruff shampoo, because you deal with enough flaky people in your life, there's no reason you should have to deal with a flaky scalp, too.
Promising review: "MIRACLE PRODUCT! If you have a flaky scalp from dandruff, BUY THIS. I was about to go to the dermatologist if this stuff didn’t work. Thank goodness I saved myself hundreds of dollars by giving this product a shot. I used it four or five times (over a month) and it cleared my scalp almost completely. One more use and my scalp will be 120% healed! This stuff blew my mind. Totally worth it." —chris
Get it from Amazon for $15.88.
15. Tongue scrapers so you can not only help reduce the bad breath tied to having gunk on your tongue but also ensure your selfie game is yuck-free, and really, which is more important? (OK, fine, it's the bad breath.)
Read more about tongue scraping at Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: "This product works!! High quality material, well made, easy to clean, corrosion resistant, at least in my experience. I can tell this will last a long time. And it works!!!! Got rid of a coating on my tongue that other tongue scrapers and the tongue cleaners on toothbrushes did nothing for!! Noticed it got a lot off the first use!!! My tongue looks healthy, and my throat feels better. Once a thicker layer starts on the tongue due to post-nasal drip, nothing else gets rid of it. It's easy to hold and doesn't gag me at all. It comes with a travel case, which I love because I don't want anything that goes in my mouth loose in a bag." —Saffire Dragon
Get two from Amazon for $9.95.
16. An oral rinse that's loved by reviewers — and for good reason: This stuff provides 12 hours (yes, 12!!!!) of coverage from bad breath and the bacteria that leads to it. Bonus points: It's vegan and free of alcohol and artificial colors/flavors.
I've been a loyal Listerine (the zero alcohol kind) for many years now, but lately was feeling like it wasn't doing as much as it used to for me in the fresh breath department. I recently decided to try out TheraBreath because I had been seeing it EVERYWHERE and wanted to see what the hype was all about (if it was even worth it). The first night I used it, I was truly shocked. I literally felt like I had just left my dentist after a cleaning; that was how fresh my mouth felt. I've been using the mild mint flavor (although I'm debating trying the icy mint next), but the mint flavor is super subtle, and the results are truly awesome. If you're a garlic/onion lover like me or just looking to elevate your fresh breath game, definitely consider TheraBreath or talk to your dentist about adding it to your routine!
Promising review: "Why didn't I find it before? It's very embarrassing to admit, but I had very stinky breath. I tried many products that didn't work. Follow instructions and 'deep throat' gargle for 30 seconds or so for best results. I can say that my breath has improved by 50%, which is a huge, huge difference. Morning breath is not as bad. I can talk to people with confidence, and that is all it counts. Thank you, Amazon!!!" —Shopper5
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $13.95.
17. An ear wash system for those who have trouble with cotton swabs (or may be trying to avoid using cotton swabs altogether). This kit will help you flush out wax from your ears — get ready for the best ever listen of "Cruel Summer" by Taylor Swift.
Doctor Easy is a small biz that sells products to help clean out your ears!
Promising review: "My son has earaches all the time. Took him to an ear doctor, and they basically said he's got a lot of ear wax buildup and to purchase this item. I was skeptical at first, but as soon as I used it on my son, he felt so much relief because all of the hardened wax was pumped out. I use it on myself, and it's worth every penny and so much cheaper than going to the ear doctor every other month." —Tootie
Get it from Amazon for $29.45.
18. A butt acne-clearing lotion because, yes, acne on the derriere *is* a thing, and if you're reading this thinking you were alone in this struggle, we're here to remind you, you're not. Enter this product, made with pure plant extracts like Australian tea oil, to help target the root of this annoyance on your booty and help kick it in the ~behind~.
Promising review: "This product is gentle on the skin but strong enough to combat any buttock issues caused by stress, environmental issues, or whatever. Living in the Deep South, we sometimes have a condition called 'swamp butt.' Little red bumps like a rash or breakout can form in sensitive areas. Using this product once a day after showering, I've had ZERO bumps in over three months. It works. Doesn't smell the greatest, but it's tolerable, for sure. Great product." —Billie B
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
19. A toenail clipper created with thick and ingrown toenails in mind. If you're someone who can barely entertain the thought of using a regular nail clipper because it just does not cooperate with your little piggies, this is gonna be super helpful!
Here's why my BuzzFeed Shopping colleague Emma Lord loves this thing: "Hello, my toenails are problem children for two reasons: One is that they're kinda thick, the other is that I'm a long-distance runner, which doesn't play nice with toenails. I bought this recently, and the difference it made immediately was ENORMOUS. Like I usually dread approaching my big toenails because they are so thick, but these painlessly and seamlessly lobbed the tops right off; I was also able to ~gently correct~ a toenail that was starting to get ingrown, and help cut down a dead toenail that needed trimming but would have been painful to approach with a regular clipper."
Promising review: "We bought this for our teen grandson to use for an ingrown toenail because he was not able to go to a nail salon that he trusted to fix this problem. It worked perfectly. He was so pleased with the result as it took care of his painful problem! Thank you for making a fantastic product. Every household should own one!" —T.S.
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
20. A shoe deodorizer spray because unless your feet smell like roses all day and night, chances are over time, you have probably noticed your shoes tend to smell less than pleasant. Luckily, this spray is formulated with lemon and eucalyptus essential oils to help freshen up your footwear. You're welcome!
Promising review: "This product WORKS! You won’t be disappointed. I used to get embarrassed taking off my flats in my office because they smelled so bad, but not anymore! My work flats make my feet sweaty, and this spray helps keep the awful odors away for at least four to five days (probably longer, but I was so excited I just sprayed my shoes again because I liked the smell, haha!) The lemon is strong, and I love the eucalyptus, so I would purchase it again! Although it will likely last a while! I have a little boy who gets sweaty feet also, so I’m sure I’ll soon be using this in his shoes also." —Traeannah Brown
Get it from Amazon for $13.95.
21. A twice-daily antiperspirant hand lotion made with eucalyptus oil and absorbing powders to help provide relief to sweat-prone hands.
Read more about the use of antiperspirants to manage symptoms of hyperhidrosis at Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: "I used this product on my 10-year-old son. He sweats A LOT on his hands. He would tell me that he was embarrassed at school and he had problems making friends. My son told me he had never shaken a hand outside of mine ever before in his life...it broke me. As a father, I knew I had to fix this. I set an appointment with his doctor and got nowhere. The doctor said it's normal and should go away in the coming years. I asked about surgery, and they said it would be around $10,000, so I started saving. A couple of weeks went by, and I came across this product. I asked my son if he was OK with trying it, and he desperately said yes. We put it on, and his hands are completely dry now. When it worked, he started practicing shaking hands and high-fives with his brother. It's been two weeks now, and it is working. AMAZING." —HECTOR LORENZO
Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (also available in packs of two and three).
22. And on the topic of perspiration, these clinical-strength sweat-blocking wipes could possibly help bring some relief to folks who suffer from excessive sweating. It's recommended to use these at night before going to bed for best results!
SweatBlock is a small biz that sells products that may help with excessive sweating!
Promising review: "Cannot recommend enough!!! If you suffer from excessive sweat like I do, this stuff is a lifesaver!! I've always had a problem with underarm sweat, and I've tried every kind of antiperspirant available. Nothing worked. I finally saw this on BuzzFeed and decided to give it a try. I can't believe I've suffered this long without this product. I showered at night, dabbed the wipe, and took another shower in the morning. It's been almost three days now with almost no sweat! It did itch a little, but nothing unbearable, and I can deal with that for the payoff!!!" —Kathy
Get 10 wipes from Amazon for $19.99.
23. A TubShroom that'll collect your hair while in the shower/bath, so it doesn't go down the drain and clog it.
Promising review: "I have long hair and recently had a baby. This means the poor tub drain is getting clogged every time we turn around, and we're spending ridiculous amounts of time with that spiky stick thing you shove down there and then pull out over and over. I figured if this even worked to catch half of my hair, then it would be worth its salt. Holy moly. When they say it catches every hair, they aren't kidding. We clean it off about twice A WEEK! And when they say it's easy to clean, they are right again. A swipe with toilet paper and the hair blob comes right off to be flushed down the toilet. I've already told so many people about this product because I love it so much. Fantastic!!!" —sasamo
Get it from Amazon for $12.95+ (available in five colors).
24. A set of Kegel exercise weights for strengthening your pelvic floor muscles a little bit with each exercise (they recommend doing it for 15 minutes a day). Some benefits reviewers love from these are a decrease in incontinence and an increase in more pleasurable sex.

Intimate Rose is a small biz!
Promising review: "Since starting, my bladder control has significantly improved. I am now able to sneeze or cough without peeing myself. Yes, that's right. I can hold my pee longer, which means I can actually make it to the bathroom without dribbling on myself. The best part is that just a few short weeks into the program, you will have results that you can feel. I think every woman who has ever had kids should try this out. The overall quality of my life has improved. Ditch your panty liners, stop the embarrassing dribbles, and no more mad dashes to the restroom because of a weak bladder. Even my sex life has improved; I have control of those pelvic muscles now. Just remember to wash the weights before and after each use with an antibacterial spray, and allow time to air dry before putting them away. I say air dry because if you wipe them dry with a cloth, you run the risk of getting a bladder infection or urinary tract infection, and those are no laughing matter. Easy to use, easy to clean, stores away quickly." —Lady Tauber
Get a set of six weights from Amazon for $49.99.
25. And a pack of incontinence pads that are just the right amount of absorbent for bladder leaks without being too bulky or uncomfortable. These are especially great for postpartum mamas or anyone who experiences a little leakage when they cough, sneeze, or even laugh!
Read more about incontinence and treatment at Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: "I use these for nighttime. They are the best ones for me so far. Regular length, they don't scrunch up, they stay put and absorb really great. Plus, they are not perfumed. I have tried many other brands, and Poise is the one for me! I also use Poise Light during the day (regular length). You can't tell you have them on like the old days when wearing period pads." —Leeloo
Get a box from Amazon for $36.79+ (available in five styles).

Plus, its packaging is 100% plastic-free! Wonderbelly is a small business!

27. A Squatty Potty that'll help make squatting while using the restroom more seamless and comfortable. It's actually better for your body to squat than sit, just FYI.
Read more about constipation relief at home, including using a squatting position, at Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: "I saw this on Facebook and had to have it. I bought it as a joke for my 15-year-old son, and now pretty much everyone in the family uses it. The product is simple, but it actually works. Fits under the toilet nicely as well. I definitely would recommend this to anyone that has a little trouble with bowel movements." —Matthew Alexander
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in two sizes).
28. An ingrown hair oil whose combo of jojoba, grapeseed, and tea tree oils may help reduce the appearance and soften the skin around post-shaving and waxing bumps, ingrown hairs, and redness.
29. A set of jean button pins that'll either add an extra inch or bring your jeans in an inch. This is great if you realized after taking the tag off your new denim bottoms that they're not *quite* the perfect fit or if you discovered an old pair in your wardrobe that could use a tad bit of adjusting to be wearable again.
Promising review: "There are the best things ever. I have jeans that fit great, but the waist is always too loose. So I saw these on TikTok, and I was so curious to see if they worked or not. But seriously, you need to buy these; the buttons are great material and just the most useful things overall." —Alexa Botello
Get a set of eight from Amazon for $5.99 (available in two different patterns).
30. A set of SUPER discreet cold sore healing patches to help reduce the pain and blistering that can come with those pesky guys while aiming to prevent post-sore scabbing in the process.
Promising review: "I wish I had found these sooner!! These cold sores were probably the worst I’ve had and wouldn’t clear up or stop itching/hurting. I googled cold sore remedies, and these happened to pop up. After reading the reviews, I immediately ordered them. They came right on time, and I put them on before bed last night. It’s been less than 36 hours, and these cold sores are already healing beautifully. I plan to order another pack or three, so I can keep one at home, one in my purse, and one in my locker at work so if I ever feel the warning tingle/itching of a new breakout, I can slap one of these bad boys on and get rid of it quickly! Highly recommend for my fellow cold sore sufferers." —Jessica Hill

31. A moisturizing skin cream your dry skin would thank you for if, ya know, your skin could speak to you. This noncomedogenic lotion is free of dyes, fragrances, and parabens!
Promising review: "Swear by this stuff for sensitive skin. I have sensitive skin due to rosacea and skin allergies. My dermatologist recommended Vanicream Lite Lotion for my face. It was OK, but then I discovered this stuff — the moisturizing cream in the pump. The Vanicream Moisturizing Cream is fantastic — my rosacea is so much better since switching to this stuff. It keeps my sensitive skin happy and protected. I even use it during the summer months with no problems. Vanicream made a fantastic product!" —s

32. Sweat-absorbing bra liners for those who get as sweaty during their morning commute as they would have if they went to the gym before work. We get the struggle and we're here to help.
Promising review: "This is one of those things that I wish I'd found years earlier. I've suffered from mortifying stress-induced under-boob sweat for most of my adult life. Also, I'm a lifelong Seattle girl who gets upset when it's warmer than 65 degrees outside. So when I stumbled upon this product, I was curious enough to buy a small pack. And yes, I've come back for MORE! For real, I won't put on a bra without one of these liners now. It absorbs all the moisture from heat and stress. And because it's a really soft bamboo/cotton mix, my skin is finally not feeling tortured under there! To the makers of this ingenious life-changing product: thank you, thank you, thank you! Sincerely, all the grateful ta-tas you've helped to care for" —Niko

Doctor Butler's is a small business that sells products that help with hemorrhoid care, pregnancy and postpartum, and skincare!
Promising review: "I was hurting horribly so I ordered this cream; I’d never used a cream before and always used a suppository. This product was a little pricey but at this point, I didn’t care. I wanted relief! I now work remotely from home so this was affecting my job as I sit all day, and even using a donut wasn’t helping! This cream is great! It gave me fast relief and shrunk the external hemorrhoids! I will definitely purchase this again and keep it on hand always! I wish I would have found this product before this time!" —Pam

35. Period underwear — a super absorbent alternative (or addition) for your period product lineup. These boast being able to hold the amount of four tampons, and hey, even if you still prefer other products to get you through your menstrual flow, these are just so comfy you may want them in your underwear rotation.
Some reviewers recommend sizing up! For more info, check out BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord's full Bambody period underwear review.
Promising review: "Very comfortable and incredibly absorbent compared to other brands I've tried. These are exactly what I needed! I don't want to have to think about my period every moment or worry about leaking. These give me such peace of mind. I don't use other products, just period underwear. I was so tired of everything else and even got sick of using cups. So, I just wear these for my entire cycle. Heavier days I'm changing every five or so hours, but I'm talking really heavy. On regular days, I can go from morning to evening. These are great for sleeping, too!" —Amazon Customer
