Promising review: "I'm a clean freak with hard water, and this stuff took off the build-up like magic. I would recommend using a slightly damp scratch pad. It takes a little elbow grease, but I have tried a ton of products, and this one is the only one that worked!" —Lori

Get it from Amazon for $19.77.

2. A top-rated, alcohol-free oral rinse for anyone struggling with keeping their breath fresh even after a thorough brush and floss routine. Not to mention, it helps combat bad breath caused by allergies or nasal drips, which is great because, until those clear up, there's not much you can do!

www.amazon.com

Pour a capful, swish and gargle for 30 seconds, after you've finished brushing your teeth in the morning and at night.

Promising review: "I'm actually a dentist who often has bad breath, which is not a good combination. My oral hygiene is great (tongue scraping, brushing, flossing, etc.), but I have allergies and constantly have a bit of post-nasal drip, which contributes to the bad breath. While this stuff isn't perfect, and my breath doesn't stay fresh all day, it is definitely the longest-lasting product I have tried so far. It is the first thing I have tried that still gives me that minty feeling when I breathe deep 4–6 hours after using it. I've found that gargling and using the TheraBreath throat spray in addition to rinsing with this have greatly improved my breath. Will definitely be buying again." —Alex

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 already these cold sores are healing up 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

When I saw how durable and well-made they were, and how much space they saved, and how easy they were to use, I bought more!

10. A "flossing" toothbrush with several layers of soft bristles to reach between teeth, under the gums, and deep into hard-to-reach spaces that regular brushing can't get. It works so well, you'd think each bristle was enchanted and hand-spun by Rumplestiltskin!

Emma Lord / BuzzFeed, www.amazon.com

Just FYI, this toothbrush is not a substitute for flossing, and if you have any concerns about using this make sure to talk to your dentist!

Mouthwatchers is a dentist-founded small business that specializes in creating toothbrushes to help patients get a truly deep clean.

Here's what one of our BuzzFeed Shopping writers, Emma Lord, has to say: "I 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." 

Promising reviews: "I didn't think that a toothbrush could impress me, but it really has. I can't stop myself from telling people about it. I don't think I can use another brand of toothbrush again!" —Amazon Customer

"I'm amazed at how well this toothbrush cleans my teeth — it definitely gets between the teeth and also, more importantly for me, gets in the small, deep crevices in my molars where I always have food stuck, and regular toothbrushes couldn't get stuff out. I brush more often (after meals/snacks) because of how effective it is. As stated, definitely go easy around the gums. The bristles feel soft, but will cause your gums to bleed if you use regular pressure. Nice and easy does the trick, SO WELL!" —Jason A.

Get a pair from Amazon for $9.99.

11. The top-rated and TikTok-famous Lumify Eye Drops to help reduce redness and provide dry eye relief in record time. It didn't climb its way to being a top seller for no reason — according to reviewers, you see results in just minutes, and if that's not absolute witchcraft, IDK what is!

www.amazon.com

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.

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

12. A pair of reusable Nippies silicone pasties that magically disappear your nipples or piercings from being visible though your shirts or dresses with seamless coverage that stays put! You'll be able to wear your favorite strapless or backless outfits without worrying about stubborn bra straps, and if you're a member of the tig 'ol bitty committee — you can even get Nippies that offer lift.

www.amazon.com

BuzzFeed Shopping Editor Natalie Brown has tried these and says: "Thanks to a ~sample sale~, I got my hands on a gorgeous unlined silk dress last summer that I LOVED but absolutely could not wear with a bra, not even a strapless one. Queue an Amazon search for pasties, because quite frankly I'm self-conscious about my nipples deciding to poke out while I'm wearing just a silk dress (and my boobs are the type that don't necessarily need support all of the time). There I found something even better than I expected: these self-adhesive silicone pasties called Nippies that are 100% invisible under clothes, so comfortable I barely notice I'm wearing them, and, at least so far, pretty darn reusable.

I've worn them four or five times now, washing with hand soap and water afterward every time as directed, and they're exactly what I needed! It's simple: you stick 'em onto clean, dry, lotion-free skin, and they stay put and comfy for hours, even through moderate sweat. They've performed perfectly every time I've worn them: for day-long shopping excursions, outdoor parties, and for nights out dancing. They come in a small reusable storage box with two stiff plastic domes for them to sit on, so they'll stay perfectly intact and dust-free in your drawer and are easy to pack for travel. Oh and over 14,000 reviewers — like, five times the number of people in my high school graduating class — have rated them 5-stars on Amazon, so I know I'm not alone in my success with them!"

You don't have to brew it up in a cauldron, but it'll definitely be your new favorite potion.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I absolutely love Bio-Oil Skincare Body Oil! This product has worked wonders on my skin, especially for fading scars and stretch marks. The texture is smooth and non-greasy, absorbing quickly into the skin without leaving any oily residue. After using it consistently for a few weeks, I noticed a significant improvement in the appearance of my scars and stretch marks — they became less noticeable and my skin felt incredibly soft and hydrated. The addition of Vitamin E is a bonus, making my skin feel nourished and rejuvenated. I highly recommend Bio-Oil for anyone looking to improve skin texture and tackle scars and stretch marks!" —bmendoza

A crack weeder tool made of stainless steel and designed to reach deep into those annoying narrow sidewalk spaces to extract weeds, moss, thistles, and other invasive greenery if you're worried about what your parents-in-law might think. This will make your sun-baked Sunday afternoon gardening so much easier, and help relieve some of the stress on your back and knees from pulling weeds yourself!

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I've been searching for something to remove the weeds for a while and came across this amazing tool. Since I refuse to use chemicals in my yard, I've been left with scraped knuckles every time I attempt to remove weeds. The weeds have grown so tightly in the concrete cracks that I pretty much gave up; even weed-whacking it didn't help much. Yes, you do have to use a little bit of effort but the end result was so worth it!" —Shelley Arakaki

Get it from Amazon for $19.95.

15. A set of reusable microfiber mop pads that offers a more sustainable way of cleaning by getting rid of wasteful disposable mop pads. Reviewers even say these reusable pads are more efficient at cleaning by picking up more dirt and grime, and all you have to do is throw them in the washer!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Each reusable mop pad replaces up to 100 disposable pads and can be used up to 100 times with proper washing. Psst — if you don't already have one, you can get a standard Swiffer on Amazon for $17! Turbo Mops also sells another version of mop pads designed to work with the Swiffer Wet Jet!

Turbo Mops is a small business established in 2018 to provide eco-conscious cleaning supplies.

Promising review: I bought these for my friends when I house-sat. I picked up GIANT-sized bunny monster balls!! She usually uses the throw-away Swiffer wipes, which I told her were a waste and not very effective at actually picking up dust. So I showed her what these mop heads picked up, right after she 'dusted' with the Swiffer. Giant fur balls of dust!!!! These need to be in every household with hardwood or hard surface floors. Seriously, I'm a clean freak and do a 'white glove' test in my own household. The cling picks up everything...and not wasting any more money on disposable dusters is a bonus. I just wash them in cool water, but then don't throw them in the dryer, unless I forget it was in the load of laundry. I find they stay softer, and more durable longer, if I don't dry them in the dryer. I'll buy more for my mom's house!" —Maria_O

The brand recommends using it every three to four days for up to eight weeks for best results. It's safe to use on sensitive scalps, color-dyed and/or chemically-processed hair, and all hair types, including 3b–4c curlies!

Promising review: "For so many years I couldn't wear black, would have to dust my chair off, and was constantly moisturizing my nose and face. One day, a doctor friend suggested I try this out for my nose, she didn't know I suffered with severe dandruff as well. She then told me to use it on my scalp as well. At first it did nothing. Then magically after say, the third week of using this off and on, I noticed a difference. I now have almost zero dandruff, 10,000 percent better and I no longer have a dry flaky nose, brow, or beard area. My face is no longer red as well. This has been a miracle cure for me. One I take for granted but quickly remember when I put on a black shirt or check my chair for an embarrassing snow storm. Try it!!!" —Grumpy Dad

17. A screen-cleaning brush so you can see as clearly as Alice did through the magical looking glass after a few swipes on your mesh screen littered with bug carcasses, dirt, and other things from nature. You can use it wet or dry!

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Our screens are on a second-floor balcony. There really isn't any good way to clean the outside of the screens. Luckily, the fibers on this screen cleaner are small enough that they seem to fit through the screen and clean both sides. I'm sure it doesn't clean the outside as well as it does the inside, but any help is always appreciated. I was actually shocked at how much dirt came off of the screens with this very simple tool. I used it wet with a small amount of dish soap, and it worked really well. I also appreciated that after I was finished I was just easily able to rinse and dry the screen cleaner for future use. A simple tool at an excellent price." —BonjourBeautyByAmy

We also live in Florida, which is very humid and hot in the summer. I'm outside a lot during the day. I developed a stubborn case of jock itch. NOTHING WORKED! I ordered a jar of Wonder Balm. Within a couple of days, I started getting sweet relief!! I still get minor flare-ups, but I'm keeping this around for everyday use!" —Gary C.

Amazon, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This stuff is AMAZING! Literally nothing else keeps tangles out of my daughter’s hair like this does. Her hair is so thick and very difficult to brush; this makes it easy peasy to brush the tangles out after a swim in the pool. It also softens her hair. When not used, the pool chemicals make her hair very stiff and dry. We even use this every once in a while just because! It smells wonderful and doesn’t make the hair greasy in any way. I cannot recommend this product enough!!!" —Emily Gardner

Promising reviews: "I’ve tried everything- expensive salon products, specialty products, natural remedies, etc. NOTHING HAS WORKED. I have ridiculously thick, coarse, curly, damaged, and dehydrated hair. It’s down the middle of my back and just so much to deal with. I thought my hair was done for and it put me in a deep depression. I saw this on a Facebook ad and thought it was cheap enough to give it a try…. YALL, LIFE-CHANGING. I’ve used twice — once a week (when I wash my hair) and just two uses have provided me with enough shine, health, and calmness that I have hope for my hair. I have cried over this and am beyond happy with the results so far. I cannot believe this $8 product beat the $60 hair mask I purchased!!!!" —Amanda

"I have super fine blonde hair. I’ve run through likely hundreds of different hair masks and leave-in conditioners over the years, only to have them cling to my hair like nothing else, often leaving it feeling waxy and heavy. After a few rounds of clarifying shampoo, I reached for this stuff and it legit brought my hair back from the grave. Even with my hair being extremely fine, it leaves it soft, glossy, and gorgeous! I know some people have said they’re not a fan of the smell, but I find it to be super light and refreshing. Could not recommend this stuff enough!!" —Soph

Promising review: "Nice and thin. You'll find so many more uses for these around the house than just getting stuff off the underside of cookware! I had hard, scaly water deposits on the glass surrounding our powder room faucet (one of those fancy, highfalutin modern-looking things). I've tried everything for four years to get this stuff off. One day I thought, maybe I'll try my sponges. Took it all off super easily!!!! Faucet looks like new. My only rec is to spot-test your item first before using it because it will scratch certain surfaces if you scrub too aggressively (for example, it gets the burned-on, weird stuff off of the bottom of my fave Our Place pan, but I rubbed too hard in one spot and it took the color right off lol)." —Hoarder

Promising reviews: "This cleaning balm is honestly amazing. I used to only use makeup removing wipes and cleaner to remove makeup and clean my face. This has literally changed the game. It literally melts the makeup off of your face easily, smells fresh, and doesn’t irritate or break out my combination skin. After using the balm, I use a gentle cleanser and voila! Highly highly recommend🌟" —Talia M.

"I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!!! I found it on TikTok and OMG!! It works so well. I don't have to sit there and rub the crap out of my eyelashes to get the waterproof mascara off. I will admit, it doesn't take 100% of the makeup off but about 95% of my makeup comes off. It is not water-resistant, as emulsifying it with water helps take the makeup off. I have not found a better makeup remover, and yes that includes micellar water (which also works well but leaves my skin feeling oily). With this cleansing balm my face feels hydrated and smooth. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!!!!!! 1,000/10 would recommend!!!" —Deetje Frederick
