I'm a resident writer on the Buzzfeed Shopping team, where my love for shopping (and doomscrolling on TikTok) helps me curate lists of the most trending lifestyle, home, beauty, and fashion products.

1. The Brumate Era 40-ounce water bottle, that'll be your emotional support as you reach your hydration goals. It's *actually* leakproof, allowing you to lock your straw so you can simply toss it in any bag instead of having to hold it all day. The inner part of the straw is stainless steel, keeping plastic out of your drink, and the insulation keeps your water cool for over 24 hours so you can have that *ahhh* ice-cold sip every time. 

Brumate, www.amazon.com

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Maitland Quitmeyersays: "I have the Simple Modern one too, and it's great for being at home and drinking water at the perfect temp. *But* if you're worried about leaking AT ALL (or prefer a metal + silicone combo straw to plastic), the Brumate Era is 100% wizardry, sorcery, and magic. I've had cold water stay COLD for ages in this bottle! The tapered base is also cupholder-friendly, and the whole darn thing is dishwasher safe, too! Let me tell you, this is my new favorite water bottle. I can lock the lid with a quick twist, and throw it LITERALLY SIDEWAYS in any tote and not even think *twice* about it leaking at all! And...if you've seen some of those videos about hidden mold in certain lids...know that this disassembles incredibly easily, so you can just toss the pieces in the dishwasher."

Promising review: "I am OBSESSED with my BrüMate Era 40 oz tumbler! This thing is a total game-changer. First of all, it’s 100% leakproof — seriously, I can toss it in my bag, tip it upside down, and not a single drop leaks out. That alone makes it a winner! The insulation is next-level — my drinks stay ice-cold for hours, even on extremely hot days. I’ve had ice for over 24 hours! The handle is sturdy and extremely comfortable to grip, and the straw makes sipping effortless and convenient. It fits perfectly in my car’s cup holder (yes, even at 40 oz!), and the design is so sleek and stylish — I get compliments on it constantly. I also love that it’s easy to clean and super durable. If you’re tired of flimsy bottles or leaky tumblers, this is the one you need. BrüMate nailed it with the Era! Don’t think, buy it. You won’t regret it! 💧🔥" —Bryan Cargill

Get the 40-ounce size from Amazon for $44.99 (available in six colors, plus a 30-ounce size).

2. A holy grail 5-in-1 Edgelift Curl Brush to define curls, waves, and coils, help prevent frizz, and create precise parts and sections. Reviewers of all curl and wave types are just short of shouting in the comments about how they never found a brush that worked as well as this one, and parents are especially grateful for how easily this untangles their kiddo's hair! 

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Bounce Curl is a small business that specializes in curl brushes. 

Check out aTikTok of the Edgelift Curl Brush in action. 

Promising review: "Best brush hands down, I am a mixed girl with thick curly hair, and when I run this brush through my hair wet, it does magic. My curls after using this in the shower to detangle are amazing, then I use my choice of product to style it row by row, and it gives me bouncy curls that help cover more scalp but separate effectively. It's extremely sturdy. I break brushes all the time, and this one lasts!!!" —Janay K 

Get it from Amazon for $29.99(available in four colors). 

3. A jewelry-cleaning stick if you've never gone a day without your precious rings — they have probably seen better days. It has a built-in brush that dispenses cleaning solution to get all up in the gaps to remove any dirt or oils that buildup over time. No trip to the overpriced jewelers needed; just whip this bad boy out and blind everyone with your sparkly bling. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "If you've seen this on TikTok or Instagram, the hype is real. I work as a nurse, and the times I have worn my ring... the hand sanitizer can be ruthless on the diamond shine. This pen was just what I needed to make the stones sparkle again. Just follow the directions and you're golden." —Brittany

Get it from Amazon for $9.48+ (available in four pack sizes).

4. "Loops Engage 2" — these earplugs discreetly block out those overwhelming noises around you, so you can stay focused and engaged during office meetings or when you're meeting up with friends at a crowded bar. They look like another piece of jewelry, so you don't have to worry about looking like you are trying to ignore everybody. 

Amazon

Promising review: "I work in a laboratory so I am constantly surrounded by lots of sounds varying in pitch and frequency which can be very overwhelming, especially for someone with noise sensitivities. I have had many people recommend these to me, so I decided to give them a try. I so happy I did! When I put these in it feels like I’m coming into my peaceful little bubble. They allow me to have a higher tolerance of noise and have overall reduced my stress and overstimulation of the environment I’m in. It seems like they do a good job at blocking out noises I personally find the most distressing (ie. high pitched, constant noises)." —Makayla

Get it from Amazon for $29.95 (available in seven colors; check out Loop's Amazon Storefront for more options related to concerts, offices, and parenting!). 

5. Elizavecca Hair Treatment, if your poor, damaged hair is in dire need of refresh *but* not at Olaplex prices. Sorry, hair, we're on a budget. This treatment is just as good, formulated with collagen for soft, luscious locs right at home — no salon needed. Just apply, let it soak for five minutes, rinse, and voila! 

www.amazon.com

This is designed to work on all hair types, with reviewers with 2b to 4c curls mentioning it worked for them! 

Promising review: "Like many others, I tried this as a replacement for Olaplex. Honestly, Olaplex never had a great effect on my hair and certainly wasn’t worth the price. This did an unreal job on my hair!! I was skeptical (tried a little bit first because I was petrified it would burn off my hair and I would end up bald!) but, lo and behold, it was magic! My hair is so strong, silky, and healthy-looking after just one use. Plus, you can’t beat the price! Have already ordered another box. I should also add that I have curly/wavy hair that’s been colored to a light brown. Buy it!!" —BB

Get a bottle from Amazon for $7.60.

6. A cooling blanket in case your partner can't sleep with the AC on, but you can't sleep without it — this is an easy compromise. One side is made with an "Arc-Chill" fabric that can help absorb your body's natural heat, while the other side is made of lightweight, breathable 100% cotton so you can still feel cozy, but *not* like you're wrapped in a hot, fresh tortilla. 

www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "Sorcery! I don't know what makes this blanket work, and I don't care. The fact is that IT DOES!!! I overheat at night a lot because I live in Arizona. I got this blanket at the exact right time, and I'm THRILLED!!!" —Amanda Julia Hess

"I run really hot, and I have tried so many various blankets. Well, I am here to tell you, this is the one you need. I live in the southwest, where temperatures regularly exceed 110 degrees in the summer. I used to wake up sweaty every single morning, even with the AC on. Well, come to this blanket, and WOW, no more waking up sweating. Almost feels as if the blanket has a built-in AC. This is the blanket to get; stop searching and just order it. I promise you'll like it." —Brantley Rockwell

Get it from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in five sizes and 13 colors).

7. Laneige glowy lip balm — if you already are in love with the Laneige sleep mask, this is the pocket-size version that'll instantly become your new go-to. It has a mix of murumuru and shea butter that helps nourish your lips, leaving them oh-so smooth. Now you can go from flaky-dry to ready-to-smooch in seconds. Reviewers also love how it's glossy, NOT sticky, finish that is lightweight, so your partner won't be wiping it off after a goodnight kiss. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Game-changer in my quest for the perfect pout. This gloss is like a disco ball for your lips. The color is so vibrant, you could guide ships through fog with your smile. I chose the shade that promised a "subtle shine," but let’s be real — it’s anything but subtle, and I’m here for it. My lips have never felt so pampered, and it hydrates so well. It’s like a spa day for your lips every time you apply it. It’s smooth and non-sticky, which is a miracle. I’ve tried glosses before that were so sticky, I felt like a human flytrap. But Laneige has nailed it — my hair doesn’t get stuck to my lips every time the wind blows. Even better, this gloss lasts longer than a Marvel movie marathon. I’ve eaten, drank, and chatted for hours. To my surprise, my lips still looked like I just applied it. It’s basically a superhero lip gloss in my makeup bag. The scent is delightful — like a tropical vacation in a tube. Every time I put it on, I’m transported to a beach, sipping a fruity cocktail, even if I’m just sitting in my living room. Laneige Lip Gloss is my holy grail. It’s hydrating, non-sticky, long-lasting, deliciously scented, and totally worth the splurge. If you want your lips to look and feel like a million bucks, this gloss is your ticket to lip nirvana. Just be prepared for all the compliments and the occasional blinding sparkle!" —Megan

Get it from Amazon for $15 (available in eight flavors).

8. A Scrub Daddy sponge that is in the Shark Tank hall of fame *and* has almost 50,000 5-star ratings — if that doesn't convince you, I don't know what will. It truly can clean up all kinds of messes with its unique design that changes it from a soft sponge in hot water to a hard sponge when cold. 

Amazon, www.amazon.com

When dealing with tougher messes, hold the sponge under cold water to firm it up. Hot water will soften it, which is perfect for lighter cleaning. It is made with a non-scratch material that is safe for many surfaces, including glass, stainless steel, nonstick, copper, and cast iron. Plus, the smiley mouth is not only adorable but was designed to help clean off both sides of a utensil at once! 

Promising review: "These Scrub Daddies are the best thing to happen to sponges since the first person looked at a live sponge and said, 'I bet I could make one of those without killing a living sponge.' They don't smell! They clean like wizardry. And they last and last and last! I ordered these the first time at my apartment, and I've ordered them again for vacation. Helpful tip: Great for cleaning knives. This may give you a shudder, but I just stick the knife into the Scrub Daddy's mouth and pull it out...like licking the cake batter off the knife, but never getting cut! Scrub Daddies are INVINCIBLE and AWESOME!" —J. Bogdanove

Get a pack of three on Amazon for $13.99.

9. Drywall repair putty for those DIY projects that end with a few nail holes and cracks in the wall. This fixes them up like they never happened with just a quick swipe, dust, and a little paint. It's perfect for renters so you can actually hang things in your place and still get your security deposit back. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This is so much easier to use than a spackling paste. As soon as I opened it, I tried it on a recent nail hole. Now I can't remember where it was because the product made the hole disappear!! Magic!" —Deb Christenson

Get one from Amazon for $14.89.

10. A bottle of Lumify Eye Dropsthat visibly leaves your eyes redness-free in just one minute. Things like makeup, skincare, or even weather can irritate your eyes, but this targets the redness, leaving your eyes looking whiter and more refreshed.

Learn more about different kinds of eye drops and what they can do at Cleveland Clinic. Note that eye drops can potentially mask symptoms of eye conditions, so you should talk to your eye doctor about what's right for you. And according to Mayo Clinic, you should avoid redness-reducing drops if you're looking for dry eye relief.

Check out a TikTok of the eye drops in action. 

Promising review: "I have a big spot of blood vessels in the inner corner of my left eye. I use the expensive lubricant eye drops for moisture — I've used Visine, Clear Eyes, you name it. No eye drop has made my eyes look this great. Only Lumify! I was soo happy when I looked in the mirror and saw some beauty in my eyes instead of darkness and redness." —Angela Leonard

Get it from Amazon for$11.93. 

11. Amagnetic two-layer fridge shelf so you can open up some counter space, while still giving your fruit 5-star treatment. I know your apples were tired of being cramped in a single fruit bowl. There's a shelf for storing things like extra spices or vitamins, or you can even decorate it with your favorite potted plants to add a little razzle-dazzle to your kitchen. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "OMG. This was a worthy investment. I can't tell you how many people ask about these baskets when they visit my house. If you are into the farmhouse vibes, these are the perfect addition. I hate storing things on my counter, but I love that I can always keep fresh fruit and veggies from the store or garden readily available. The kids love that it is easy to get to, and I am incredibly surprised by how strong the magnet is. I have another one in the coffee nook on the other side of the fridge that holds the coffee pods and seasonings. Love how this has saved me space." —HereIAm 

Get it from Amazon for$22.93+ (available in three colors and in two-packs). 

12. Phlur Beach Skin Shimmering Body Oil that'll leave you smelling like a summer sunset (at least what I think it would smell like) with notes of bright citrus and creamy coconut, while giving you a golden-hour glow. Plus, it's formulated with floral and vitamin C oils to hydrate your skin as you shimmer in the sunshine. 

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "New favorite product. I love Phlur and use the body mist and perfume, but this…. THIS IS THE ONE! Absolutely worth it after a fresh shave. Not greasy, moisturizing, and the scent is so long-lasting. I received many compliments on it and didn’t feel it was heavy. Literally perfect!" —Kelsey

"The smell is incredible and long-lasting! This body oil goes on easily, smells amazing, and leaves your skin very soft. The shine on the skin looks great during the day and at the beach." —Female customer

Get it from Amazon for $45.

13. Reusable Nippies nipple covers because if I have to wear a bra when I'm already dripping sweat and overheating — I might cry. As much as not wearing a bra could be an easy solution, sometimes you just want a little extra support and coverage without a strap ruining your backless top or dress. These are made with fully waterproof, washable, medical-grade adhesive to last you many wears. Also, the seamless edges will make it look like you are wearing nothing at all. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

You can get about 10 wears out of them.

Promising review: "I literally wear these covers all the time. They really are seamless, and I love the shades they have; these blend perfectly into my skin tone. As someone with small breasts, strapless bras never really were for me, as they always rode down, and I would have to adjust them throughout the day. With these, it’s just so much more comfy, and they really are sweat-proof; they do not budge. I live in California, and it’s summer right now, so it’s been like 85–95 degrees, and I can wear these with no issue!! I wash them after every wear and put them back in the casing it comes with." —Marilyn Miranda

Get them from Amazon for $26.50+ (available in three sizes, five shades, and two styles).

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Natalie Brown swears by these pasties! Check out her Nippies review to learn more.

14. Tarte's Tartelette tubing mascara that'll give you that eyelash extension effect without needing to put tweezers near your eyes (or contact an Etsy witch). With just one coat, the lightweight tubing technology wraps around your lashes, making them appear longer and fuller. Bonus — you no longer have to rub your eyelashes off to wash off your mascara — this just slides right off with a little warm water.

www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "I’ve used mascara for 15 years, I’ve tried a million kinds and this is by far the best. I have long eyelashes and have always had issues with getting raccoon eyes or it winding up on my eyelid throughout the day. This mascara stays on the lashes for 16+ hours, no smudging, and is incredibly easy to remove at the end of the day. Also, noting less damage to my eyelashes with how easily the product comes off. 10/10, buy this." —Shelby Droegemueller

"This mascara absolutely lives up to the hype. It gives my lashes amazing length and definition without clumping, and I love how lightweight it feels compared to traditional mascaras. The tubing formula stays put all day — no smudging, flaking, or raccoon eyes even after long days — but it removes so easily with warm water at night. It genuinely gives a “lash extensions” effect while still looking natural and separated. One of the best mascaras I’ve tried and definitely worth the price!" —Courtney

Get it from Amazon for $28 ( available in brown and black). 

15. Atower fan for when AC is just not in the budget this month. No need to have your house become a personal sauna, because this powerhouse of a fan blows cool air at up to 25 feet per second! It has four speeds, from a gentle breeze to a storm of wind. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review:  "This fan has a great setup. There is very little assembly required out of the box. My three dogs and fiancé all sleep in the same bedroom in south Texas without a ceiling fan. So it gets hot QUICK. Our HOA does not allow window AC units. We had a box fan, but it was not doing much. I can say I feel a noticeable difference with this fan. I am not waking up in the middle of the night in a sweat. The remote allows us to control the fan from the bed, so we don't have to get up! It is also very quiet so we do not hear much white noise from the fan." —Charlie  

Get it from Amazon for $79.99 (available in four colors). 

16. Abottle of EcoTools makeup brush and sponge shampoo, because you almost forgot your makeup sponge was pink in its early life. I'll hold your hand to tell you — it's time to wash your favorite, caked-up brushes from high school. Just apply a little pump of shampoo and watch as the makeup melts away. Bonus, you'll save a few bucks compared to the Beautyblender soap for the same results. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes says: "I've used Ecotools brush cleaning shampoo for years, and it makes cleaning my brushes so much easier. I just add a bit of the shampoo to my brush and gently rub it against a silicone mat under running water, and it makes quick work of removing all the makeup that's built up on my brush for, frankly, way too long. You'll see the water start running brown immediately, which is always super gross but also really satisfying, and once you see your brush return to its original color, you know you're done. And the bristles are always left as soft as before too!"

Promising review: "The best, most affordable brush and sponge shampoo on the market! No joke, I have tried everything; even homemade hacks like dish detergent mixed with olive oil. Nothing works like this brush shampoo. Don't waste your money on the Beautyblender soap and other big-name brands." —Lily

Get it from Amazon for $9.93.

17. A tube of Burt's Bees After Sun soother for when your relaxing poolside nap takes an unfortunate turn, leaving you redder than a baboon's butt. It has a soothing combo of aloe and coconut oil mixed with natural antioxidants that will give you that ~ahhhh~ calming relief. It's like giving your skin a kiss of refreshing hydration. 

www.amazon.com

This product is formulated without parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, or SLS.

Promising review: "I’ve been using this product for years now. My first trip to Costa Rica I had it and trust me when I tell you it’s saved my life. I live in Florida now and I never go anywhere without it. After any time in the sun you can use this and you can believe that your skin will be nourished and moisturized it will not hurt and your skin will not peel if used properly. I said your skin will not peel. I love this product for it." —Kenneth

Get it from Amazon for $9.74.

18. A sand-removal bag that'll become a must for every beach vacay. This little bag dispenses talc-free powder so with just a quick pat and a wipe, you'll be sand-free in minutes. Now you can wave goodbye to all those waiting in that long outdoor shower line. 

Amazon

Shakalo is a small biz based in San Diego.

Promising review: "We recently moved to a beach area, and we are constantly there. This item has changed our entire lives! It lasts decently long (depending on how much you use it), it smells super good (not at all like baby powder), and it's super effective. It has saved me from vacuuming my car at least 1x–2x a week. I even use it on my dogs's paws and bellies to make sure they're taken care of. I will definitely be buying another baggie to have exclusively in the car." —Gabbs Uresti

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (also available in a three-pack). 

19. A pack of damp sponges to effortlessly pick up every dust particle and pet hair and prevent your allergies from kicking into full gear. It's designed with a ridged surface to fully grasp all the dust on your blinds, floors, and ceiling fans, so it won't puff into your face and cause a sneeze attack. Just wet, wipe, and rinse for dust-free living. Sorry, Scrub Daddy, but I'm adding this one to the cart. 

www.amazon.com

My colleague Maitland Quitmeyer can vouch for these: "I bought a pack of these recently, and so far love dusting with them! All the dust sticks right on, so you don't end up breathing in all the dust you just tried removing. It's great for baseboards, too!"

Promising review: "I rarely review products, but this little sponge literally changed my life! It picks up EVERYthing in one swipe! Hard water marks on your bathroom mirror, no problem! Hair clippings on your sink and counter, one swipe and they are gone! Dusty blinds? Swoosh, swoosh, swipe! And ala-presto ka-bam, like magic, they are perfect and dust-free! I just need one of these for my floors! I love, love, love how the sponge picks up everything, and with a little running water, all the dust, hair, muck, and guck just rinsed away! This will not disappoint! Thank you!" —DayDreamer

Get a four-pack from Amazon for $7.74+ (available in six color combos and in packs of two or eight).

20. A portable lock box so your whole group can actually enjoy the ocean instead of working security shifts. Also god forbid a girl wants to take a beach nap without being on high alert. This takes away all the stress by stashing away your phone, wallet, and keys. Just clip it to your beach chair and watch your friends chant "MVP, MVP" as you ALL go dive in the ocean. 

www.amazon.com

You can also use this in your room to keep valuables protected. You can either set a three-digit combination code or use the provided key!

Promising review: "This is a must-have for vacations. We took it to Atlantis in the Bahamas, and it worked perfectly. It held our phones, room keys, etc., while we were out enjoying the beach or pool. Just looped it to our beach chair or table. Highly recommended." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $39.95 (available in five colors).

21. A pair of ~Dreamlux~ leggings designed with an ultra buttery-soft material that actually stays in place, so you're not doing those awkward squats throughout the day to adjust (you know what I'm talking about). If you do need to bend, they are squat-proof — reviewers actually say these remind them of the Lululemon Align leggings. Except these won't make your wallet cry, especially when you want more colors. 

Amazon

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says: "I bought these on Prime Day, which is the only day I will buy leggings because I hate wearing leggings with a burning passion. My 'I'm not like other girls' bit is that for some reason I am always comfier in jeans than leggings. BUT NOT THESE!!! They slide on. The fabric is so lightweight and breathable that it feels like a whisper. The band is so deceptively comfortable that sometimes I'm like, 'Am I still wearing them??' I use them to run outdoors because that is the only circumstance I'll wear leggings, and I'm happy to report that after several washes, they are durable and compressive enough to withstand workouts. They would be excellent for lounging if I weren't wired in this odd anti-legging way. I have already bought two more pairs and made my friends buy them, too. 

Promising review: "Super comfy. I usually don’t write reviews, but I tried these first before buying Lulu, and these are the most comfortable leggings for everyday and even for workouts. Highly recommended!" —Criselle Johnson

Get them from Amazon for $28.80+ (available in women's sizes XXS–XXL, two inseams, and 21 styles). 

22. The viral Levoit air purifier so you can actually take a deep breath without irritating your allergies or getting a big whiff of cat litter. The HEPA filter helps guarantee a cut in all the dust, smoke, dander, and pollen that floats in the air. It's also small and even has a quiet mode, so you can keep it by your bed to wake up breathing clean, fresh air. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "We retired to the Southwest US, which is just a huge dust bowl. I didn’t want to be breathing in the dust, and I absolutely hate dusting furniture. So I researched air purifiers and chose this model. In order to filter dust, it seems I needed a HEPA filter, which this purifier uses. While not washable, they can be vacuumed, which I do about once a week, so they last longer. Overall, the price for the purifier and the filters was less for this model than for others I researched. I bought the large model of this purifier for the main room of our 1,200-square-foot townhouse, and it works really well. I only have to dust every 3–4 weeks, which suits me just fine. I think the purifier is about as loud as a white noise machine, so not very loud in my opinion. My husband, who wears hearing aids, finds it noisier than I do. I bought two of the smaller versions of this same purifier for the two bedrooms. While they are just a smaller version of this machine, they don’t work nearly as well. It gets dusty in those rooms within days. I wish I had purchased the larger version for those rooms, too. I’ve had all three purifiers going 24/7 for four months now, and the filters are nowhere near the point where they need changing, again noting that I vacuum them weekly. So all in all, these purifiers have been very economical to use." —SuesZoo

"I was skeptical any air purifier at this price could do much, but I tried it! I have a medium-sized music room for record collections and playing those records, etc. The room is about 18 x 18. I hate dealing with dust getting on the records and equipment. I took note of some dark items with dust on them first. Then, I cleaned those items to see if they would stay clean because it usually takes a few days to be covered again. I ran the Levoit at medium speed for two weeks solid, and those surfaces look just as clean as when I cleaned them. Does it work? Yes, it does! The lowest setting is pretty quiet, but the medium and high can be fairly loud. I turn it off during listening times." —Charles Tweedy

Get a purifier that can cover up to 1,073-square-foot spaces from Amazon for $84.94+ (available in black and white, plus a pet version). You can also get a mini size for up to 240 square feet for $39.97.

23. These silky satin pillowcases, because your hair care (or skincare) routine doesn't end when you go to sleep. This helps decrease friction when you sleep, which may leave you with less frizz and less skin irritation. Blissy has been real quiet since these have come around. 

Amazon

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Maitland Quitmeyersays: "This is my go-to satin pillowcase. I have two Slip pillowcases, and several of these, and actually the Bedsure ones wash up much nicer and retain an incredibly silky smooth feel after dozens of trips through the laundry. They're the only ones I'll buy going forward, and I recommended them to my mom and now she's in love with them too!"

Promising review: "My hair has never been better! I got this because of TikTok and it has done wonders for my hair. My hair isn’t frizzy or dull looking when I get up in the morning." —Aaron Key

Get a set of two from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in four sizes, 35 colors, and in packs of four or individually).

24. Goo Gone so you can finally take off those stickers your kiddos so graciously decorated your antique dresser with. No need to try to razor it off or sacrifice an old credit card. Just slap some on, give a wipe, then wash with soap and water for a sticky-free mess that "never happened 😉." 

Yi Yang / Via BuzzFeed

This is safe to use on glass, plastic, carpets, fabrics, and hard surfaces. 

BuzzFeed Shopping contributor Yi Yang has this to say: "Goo Gone is one of those things that I somehow had never heard of until this year (though others have apparently had it in their households for years). When I saw it in this BuzzFeed post, my life was changed forever. I couldn’t believe I had lived for so many years without this stuff. So many presents were ruined by price stickers that wouldn’t peel off properly and so many reusable glass containers thrown away/recycled because I couldn’t get the sticky label off of them.

When I got my hands on a bottle, I immediately put it to test. A couple of days ago, I bought a really cool glass milk saucer from the MoMA store, but the product label left an ugly and sticky residue on it (why do shops allow stickers like this?!). I applied the Goo Gone, washed with soap and water, and voilà — the adhesive came right off, leaving my saucer crystal clear. Then, I cleaned off an old soy sauce container and turned it into a flower vase. And it can do so much more than just removing price stickers; the product description says it’ll work on candle wax, permanent marker, crayon, glue, gum, tape residue, adhesive, paint, tree sap, tar, etc. It’s also surface-safe and can be used on carpet and upholstery, clothing, and any hard surfaces — including glass, laminate, metal, wood, plastic, vinyl, windows, ceramic, granite, flooring, countertops, tile, and wood. And bonus: It smells nice and citrusy!

Since purchasing Goo Gone, I’ve cleaned off several candle tins, a Trader Joe's growler, and a kimchi jar previously marred by sticky labels — they can now be reused as pen holders and food containers! In fact, now I'm constantly looking around my apartment to see what I can Goo Gone (yes, I'm using it as a verb) and reuse. Definitely one of my best household purchases EVER."

25. A fan favorite ChomChom pet hair remover roller because, unlike those disposable lint rollers, you don't have to peel anything off after one swipe. This clings to those loose hairs as you roll it back and forth and stores them right inside the roller for easy cleanup. Now your guests will WANT to sit on your couch instead of avoiding it like the plague.

Promising reviews: "I wish I had this sooner. I have four dogs and two cats, so lots of pet hair. It is so easy to use and clean. No more buying lint rollers that cost lots of money, this is so much better just roll and empty. I have used it on my furniture, rugs and clothing with no problems. I highly recommend. I am buying one for all of my friends and family that have pets." —Jason

"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

26. A bottle of no-scrub weekly shower cleaner if cleaning your bathroom is a task you always seem to "forget" about (it's my least favorite chore, too). Spray this all over your shower once a week and leave it alone to do its magic. It'll tackle the soap scum, grime, and mold and mildew stains — without you putting in hours of scrubbing.

You may need a few applications at first if your bathroom has stubborn grime. Once your shower is clear, just spray this once a week to keep it sparkling. 

Promising review: "I was skeptical at first, but this product exceeded my expectations! I've used it once a week for the last couple of months, and my shower has remained impeccably clean without any need for scrubbing. My bathroom counter had a weird black residue that regular cleaners and scrubbing couldn't remove. After the first application, most of the residue came off with light scrubbing, and after the second application, all of it was gone. I wish I'd discovered this spray sooner!" —Claire W.

"I debated getting this and read so many reviews. I bit the bullet and bought it. No regrets! Absolutely love it. Let it sit for hours, and it wiped away with so much ease. I didn’t have to scrub anything. 10/10." —Stephanie Mueller

This comes with four attachments for different-sized dices and even a spiral blade if you're into the zoodle trend. Just place your veggie right in the chopper and give it a good SMACK! You'll have pico de gallo or stir-fry-ready veggies in seconds.
