Promising review: "I have been looking for a good hair removal for my sensitive skin and this one is perfect. It has a great odor and leaves my skin feeling smooth and silky. It does not burn my skin at all, even when I leave it on for 15 minutes or more. This is definitely my new hair removal cream. I will recommend this one to everyone." —Crystal

The high-density sponges are squishy on the inside with an emery layer on the outside. They can be cut into smaller chunks for cleaning nooks and crannies.
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!!!! The faucet looks 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 review: "I just can't believe the difference in my hair!!! I'm in my 60s, and my hair was dry and dull because of my medications. I just hated my hair. I bought this not expecting too much, but was I wrong!!!! I left it on for 30 minutes because I wanted the best result possible. Wow!! My hair feels wonderful, it's fuller and thicker looking, body galore, and I just can't quit looking at my hair. I will NEVER quit using this!!!" —lucymae

Promising review: "My natural nails are horrible! They are thin and brittle and have a tendency to split, peel, and break. Consequently, I wore acrylic nails for several years until I got tired of leaving so much money at the nail salon. When I soaked off the acrylics, my nails were, of course, worse than ever, and nothing I tried seemed to restore them to even their original condition until I found Hard as Hoof Nail Strengthening Cream. I rub this into my cuticles and nail beds several times a day, and after two months, my nails are hard and much thicker with no breaking or splitting. For the first time since I took off the acrylics, my nails are growing past my fingertips. This cream is a keeper, just ordered my second jar and I'll never again be without it." —M. Hill

Many reviewers started by using Restor-A-Finish to blend out minor scratches before finishing with the Feed-N-Wax. It's as simple as wiping on and off!
Promising review: "I got this product a few hours ago from Amazon and now have shiny floors! It gave the really dull hardwood floors of my prewar NYC apartment an impressive shine. Really impressive. A little goes a long way: I used only about two ounces to shine about 500 square feet of clean floors. Before using it on the floors, I tested the polish on an old wooden side table that was scarred and needed sanding. It looked a lot better afterward." —KindleCustomer2
Get it from Amazon for $8.25+ (available in three sizes).
Promising review: "I ordered these strips to help in lightening my yellow-stained (coffee) teeth, not sure of what to expect. I applied the strip to my front teeth and liked the way it sticks to my teeth and does not move around. It does not get in the way at all and develops a kind of goo around the strip, which I know is working to remove the stain. After my first application, I could see positive results in a slight shade lighter. I have used this product for two weeks now, and my teeth are much whiter. Not a phosphorus white, but a natural white, which is what I wanted." —Anthony G.

Check out this TikTok of Mikayla Nogueira's review of this foundation.
Promising reviews: "I love Love LOVE this foundation! I’m throwing out every other foundation I own! I have pink undertones from redness, and I’ve always struggled to find a foundation that matched me well that didn’t leave a yellow-looking finish. This was it!!!! I was really skeptical at first, but figured, hey, why not try it! It gives such a natural look. It’s not cakey and doesn’t separate on my skin like other foundations I’ve used. I tried it with and without primer, and it looked awesome either way! I used it with their setting spray and color me impressed! This is now my forever foundation!" —Sharon
"Flight attendant here. Travel-friendly. I'm a fair neutral skin tone, and it's not too pink, not too warm. It's the perfect neutral color. Looks like skin! I just ordered the pink version, which is supposed to be more matte, just to try a different consistency because this does so well on my skin. If you are using a drugstore foundation, trash it and order this. Those warm tones after time that happen with affordable foundations DOES NOT HAPPEN with this formula. Will continue to order forever. Goes on in a thin layer. 10/10!" —Sav

Promising review: "OMG, these should be standard issue to every human. I’ve bought them all: the cheap foot files, the expensive ones, the Ped Egg, and even a foot file from that direct sales nail wrap company. None of those remotely compares to this one. I thought I was reduced to course heels forever; no more! With just one use, my heels are fabulous! The callouses this thing removed was absolutely disgusting, but I couldn’t be happier. You won’t be disappointed!!" —JMart
Get it from Amazon for $9.98.
Promising review: "I've bought a total of four of these things. I went on a kick of painting all of my generic black/dark brown Ikea furniture. I used this on both the shiny/smooth furniture and wood furniture, and it worked well on both of them. It definitely worked better on the wood furniture, though. The paint was unexpectedly very easy to use and the color came out a LOT prettier than expected! It was easy to clean off my hands and brushes and the paint came right off my clothes in the wash as well. Overall, I'm very very pleased with this paint and will purchase more if I need any crafty paint in the future." —Anna

Promising reviews: "I looooove this so much. The smell is amazing, and it tends to stick around for a while, so I love getting whiffs of it throughout the day. My hair is softer and doesn’t seem as frizzy as before. I put it on after washing my hair and then after it’s dry. I tend to wash my hair two times a week, so I’ll use it in between washes on my ends to make sure they still look nice and healthy. Great value too; I’ve been using it pretty consistently since purchasing and I’ve barely made a dent in it. Love it!" —Noley

"Growing out my nails has always been a challenge for me; I’m guilty of biting and peeling/picking at my nails when I’m nervous. This product has completely changed my nail game. It gives my nails a hard protective coating, and the tint of pink makes even my stubby nails look professional and pretty." —Andi

Promising review: "I could kick myself for not trying this sooner! It is my new favorite lotion... After one night of using this, I woke up to smooth, soft moisturized skin that wasn’t itchy at all. This lotion goes on and absorbs beautifully. It’s not too thin or thick, and the scent is sensational... It’s not greasy or slick and does not have a residue that pills or transfers." —TickTokAlice

Promising review: "I am 60, and I could not get rid of the cellulite on my legs. I started using this product six weeks ago and can noticeably see a difference. I apply morning and evening, before bed, for optimal results. It goes on smoothly and has a creamy, non-sticky feel. The smell is dreamy, and even my husband has commented on the improvement. Make sure you apply in a circular motion for optimal coverage, absorption, and circulation." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "Wowwww!! I thought we were getting a lot of fur off our mini Maine coon mix with our regular cat brush, but I had no idea how much we were missing until I bought this comb! Bella is visibly sleeker and happier after two good de-shedding combing sessions. The best part is that she LOVED it, which says a lot, because she typically will only allow a few swipes of the brush at a time. But with this comb, she even let me get her BELLY fur!!! For a cat who rarely likes being touched for more than 10 seconds, that is incredible! 5 out of 5 stars, telling everyone I know about this comb!!" —Rebecca Headley

Promising review: "Keep in mind, hair loss is very tricky to treat. Not everybody is going to respond positively to all products. This one works great for me! I use it in conjunction with Propecia and Rogaine. A couple of months ago, I noticed my hair was beginning to thin again, even with Propecia and Rogaine, so I tried to find a better shampoo. I started using this and I’ve noticed a remarkable difference in thickness!" —Chad S.

Psst — reviewers mention this is most effective when paired with a scalp massager to work it into their roots!
Promising review: "Between myself (medium/long hair) and my overly fluffy cat, a lot of hair and fluff was continually getting caught up on the roller brush of my vacuum. I dreaded vacuuming because it took so long to pull and snip the hairs wrapped up on the roller brush out with scissors. Not anymore! This silly, little, inexpensive thing works great! Super quick to remove all the hair/fur — in virtually a minute, then back to vacuuming with my lovely Miele vacuum." —MKS
Get it from Amazon for $8.99.
Promising review: "I used to pay a professional to dermaplane my face once a month to remove the peach fuzz, which makes me look older and makes the makeup application more cumbersome. I searched for years for a home product to use to save money and time. This is the closest I have been able to get to professional dermaplaning in the convenience of my home, on my time/schedule, and at a fraction of the price. Love it!" —SEM1969

You can place one in the detergent tray and run a normal cycle. An additional tablet can be added to the bottom of the dishwasher for a deeper clean. You can also use it while cleaning dishes by placing a tablet at the bottom of your dishwasher when running a normal cycle.
Promising review: "Definitely worth trying! I moved into a new place and discovered the hard way that the previous tenant was a disgusting slob — and I mean GROSS. About 6 weeks in, some random grease clog happened somewhere in our plumbing/something went wrong, and my sink and dishwasher began emptying (unbeknownst to me at first) into my downstairs neighbor's kitchen. Long story short, everything was replaced and repaired, but my dishwasher smelled horribly rotten and seemed to just make dishes dirtier. Oily and stinky, somehow, no matter how much prewash/soap/good old scrub the dishwasher on your knees, I did. It was beyond useless; it was making my kitchen stink. My landlord was unconcerned at this point because the problems had *technically* been fixed. (Yeah, one of those.) THIS PRODUCT WAS WORTH, FOR ME, 3X WHAT I PAID. One tablet worked wonders, and a second was probably not needed, but I did one anyway, and I'm just absolutely amazed. It's better than it was when I moved in. If only this could fix up the rest of my apartment for me!!?!" —Mirwonderful

Though a cleaning solution isn't necessary, some reviewers say pairing the brush with a cleanser is really helpful for particularly dirty shoes. Try pairing it with the super popular Pink Miracle Shoe Cleaner if you need backup.
Promising reviews: "This brush is amazing. My daughter went puddle jumping in her boots... They dried out while I was trying to figure out how to clean them. Saw the reviews on this and ordered right away. Holy cow, they look almost new. I cleaned all my boots, too, because I was so excited. Even ones I thought looked clean were much improved. I washed the brush with dish soap and water and let it dry between pairs." —TRW

Reviewers with hair textures from type 1a (stick straight) to type 4c (coily) have left 5-star ratings for this bottle of magic. Those with straighter hair say it helps smooth flyaways and add volume, while those with coily hair say it enhances their natural curls and adds shine.
Promising reviews: "I was super skeptical of all the positive reviews on this, but the price was very reasonable, so I decided to give it a try anyway. I was astonished but very delighted to discover just how soft and silky this product made my hair!... I've used many hair masks and deep conditioning treatments to try to salvage some of the integrity of my length while I wait for my natural hair to grow back out, with varying success. However, when I used this product with a deep conditioning treatment on top, it made my hair feel so soft and silky, I was amazed! It won't undo damage that's already been done to your hair, but it will certainly make it feel much softer and more manageable!" —Brenna
"I don’t usually do reviews on products, but for this one, I absolutely have to. I have 3c-type hair and struggle with a lot of breakage, unmanageability, and moisture. When my mom mentioned this product to me, I didn’t take her seriously because of the simple fact that we have two completely different hair textures. I never would have thought this brand would work on my hair ... I have never in my 22 years felt my hair like this. I feel like I have a completely different head of hair. This product is so amazing, and I will FOREVER be using this product in my hair regimen." —Theressa Hailey
Get it from Amazon for $10.97.
Promising review: "Hate dragging out the old hotel iron and board, so I just spray my wrinkled clothes with this, and voila! Takes the wrinkles out, and off I go — no wrestling while putting the iron and board away. I even have a small travel iron or use my hair styling irons if I want a better finish, but this usually does the job nicely." —Audie

"MAGIC. HOLY CRAP I LOVE THIS MIT! This cleared up 80% of the “chicken skin” I have INSTANTLY after one use. Also, it took off way more dead skin than any scrub I’ve ever used. I never write reviews, so I had to when I got this and loved it." —Cheyanne

Promising review: "I seriously can't believe how well these little tablets work. I had the most disgusting Hydro Flask coffee mug — I tried everything. A bottle brush, different kinds of soap, vinegar, EVERYTHING, and there was still a seemingly impenetrable layer of black sludge inside. I let a tablet sit in each of my mugs for an hour or two, and the black sludge rinsed out COMPLETELY, without even scrubbing. They look brand new. What a magical product. No weird smell or taste afterward, either. I liked it so much that I used it on another Hydro Flask I use primarily to hold my Bloody Mary mix in the fridge. I couldn't put anything else in it because it would always taste like spicy tomato juice. Bottle Bright to the rescue! No residual smell or taste anymore. AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "After using Lights, Camera, Lashes by Tarte for the past year, I got tired of breaking the bank over mascara. My sister suggested Essence Lash Princess False Lash Effect, and I IMMEDIATELY fell in love. It provides dramatic length and great volume. I can honestly say I can’t stop looking at my eyelashes in the mirror every single day because of how awesome they look. Also, it is very long-wearing. I go from an eight-hour workday right to the gym and sweat [a lot]... and this stuff doesn’t budge! I love it!!" —Carrie E Weikert

Promising review: "I bought this RMR spray with low expectations, even with the good reviews. I sprayed a small patch in the evening and let it sit overnight. The next morning, the grout where I had sprayed was as white as if it were brand-new. I decided to spray the entire wall and part of the roof. The next day, everything I sprayed had no visible mold. By the third night, I was pretty much spraying everything left in the shower. This stuff is amazing." —John Werner

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 bump forming near my nose piercing about six weeks after getting it done, and it was just getting bigger and more irritated by the day; nothing was helping. I bought this stuff 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 make sure to 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! Also smells pretty good, definitely no bothersome or overwhelming scent, which is appreciated in a product that I’m applying on the nose area." —Jordan Caprigno
Get it from Amazon for $12.85 (also available in multipacks).
Promising review: "I’ve been trying to clean my nasty oven door for the past five years. Tried everything I could find, but it remained an embarrassing mess. Ten minutes of moderate scrubbing yesterday with Oven Scrub, and it was 90% clear. Another five minutes today, and it looks like new. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED." —Andy Bea

Promising review: "I recently purchased this tongue scraper, and I must say, it has made a significant difference in my oral hygiene routine. The scraper is easy to use and efficient in removing any buildup on my tongue. I have noticed that my breath stays fresher for longer, and my tongue feels cleaner throughout the day. The scraper is also easy to clean and store, making it a convenient addition to my daily routine. Overall, I highly recommend using a tongue scraper, and this one in particular is a great choice." —Kelsey

Promising reviews: "I have some discoloration/hyperpigmentation, and I am not usually good at using concealer. This is easy to use and perfect for beginners and amateurs like me." —Marie
"I am a 30-year-old female. I have extremely dark under-eye circles. Honestly, that is the only reason I wear makeup — to cover them. I've used numerous kinds of concealers. Tarte Shape Tape, Mary Kay, Estee Lauder (assorted kinds), IT Cosmetics Bye Bye under eye, Clinique, Laura Mercier, Mac, and Bobbi Brown. I usually spend anywhere from $25–$30 on one tube of concealer and still feel unsatisfied with the coverage. Or it looks too heavy and thick by the time I sit with a damp makeup sponge and powder (accentuating my under-eye fine lines). This little gem is great. I use this concealer every day instead of all my high-end brand concealers. It's full coverage, buildable, lasts all day, is not drying, and is not too liquid-y. I'm so happy I gave this a try, will definitely be keeping this baby in my everyday makeup bag." —Brittney

Promising review: "I had a stubborn wart that I had tried to get rid of for years. I was about to give up and go to a doctor when I discovered these. I put them on before bed, and on the last two days, kept them on all day. Today I was filing the wart down (which I did every day with this treatment) and I noticed a crack at the bottom. **Warning! Kinda gross** I was able to pull out the entire wart! I was left with a circular wound on my finger, and I was left holding the wart! I'm so shocked and amazed since it's only been four days! I 100% would recommend this to everyone." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I had tried everything to get the hardware stains off my shower. CLR, metal scrubbing pads, vinegar, and many other things. I thought I'd end up having to replace all the faucets. I saw this in a BuzzFeed article and thought, no way it's THAT good... It's that good. It's better than good. It's wild how good it is. My shower looks better than new. It took rust stains off the tile. It took years of hard water scale buildup off in seconds. It is literally a miracle product." —Amazon Customer

I’m usually a 'full face of makeup at all times' kind of girl because of my insecurities, but this soap has given me a new confidence. I used it for the first time Saturday night and instantly saw the results of this soap. My skin looks so much more even." —Adrienne Jerkins

Promising review: "So I decided to put these to the ultimate test for the 4th of July underneath my white, semi-sheer swimsuit. I wore them out in the Florida heat in the ocean all day, and they did not budge or peel off. I thought for sure these would take skin off by the time I got home because I just couldn't believe they stayed on the entire day (humidity is real). I was able to remove them with ease. I washed them with warm water and soap and let them dry, and the next day, they were super sticky, like they were brand new out of the package again. Buying these forever." —Marisa
