I’m a resident writer on the BuzzFeed Shopping team covering a variety of topics in a fun and mindful way, including travel, home, beauty, gift guides, and anything that’ll add just a bit of whimsy into people’s lives.

1. A bottle of Lumify Eye Drops that'll help brighten your eyes in *one minute* and helps reduce redness so well, it's left reviewers feeling shocked, amazed, and downright flabbergasted. Just because we were up all night scrolling doesn't mean we want to hear the "you look so tired!!" comments (jeez...). 

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.

Check out a TikTok of the eye drops in action. 

Promising review (for the photo above): "Miracle worker. My eyes were red for two days from my eyelash extensions because of irritation, and I tried two eye drops from the drugstore. Neither worked!! I ordered these from Amazon because of the reviews, and they worked within 30 seconds. I was genuinely so impressed. Highly recommend, and they are also super hydrating." —GB

Get it from Amazon for$11.93. 

2. Bioclean Hard Water Stain Remover if there was once a time, perhaps long, long ago, when the view out of your shower wasn't blocked by a cloudy film. With just a bit of scrubbing, this'll get rid of soap scum, rust, and calcium buildup — no streaks left behind. You can try it out on the shower head, nozzle, and glass doors, and they'll clean up so easily you won't even mind tackling those annoying toilet and sink stains, too!

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "We have been living in an RV resort, and the water is EXTREMELY hard! Even with a giant water softener attached, the hard water makes everything white and splotchy. I tried this product because I saw it on BuzzFeed. I should’ve taken before/after pictures, but I was too skeptical — this is a miracle product!!! Amazing results with little scrubbing. I just used a non-scratch sponge and holy cow!!! Our shower doors look like new, and this removed a water stain we’ve had for three years in no time! I ordered more instantly and am literally using it everywhere! Thank you for making the best cleaning product ever!" —Heidi

Get it from Amazon for $16.29+ (available in three sizes).

3. A neck and shoulder relaxer when hunching over your desk for eight hours a day in a position that could only be described as "🦐" starts to take its toll. This ergonomic foam gives your neck the space to stretch out, which can help relax your spine and provide maaajor tension relief. Reviewers swear by it for helping reduce shoulder pain, stiff neck, or even just being the perfect 10-minute break during a study sesh. 

www.amazon.com, Amazon

If you have any neck or back issues, talk to your doctor before use and read more about cervical traction at Cleveland Clinic.

For this, instead of like a regular pillow, you're supposed to lie on it in 10-minute intervals; the seller suggests working your way up to it by starting yourself off at five minutes at a time, with a one- to three-day adjustment period before regular use.

Promising review: "This neck relaxer is so easy to use! It took a few times to get used to, but it is not uncomfortable and is very much helpful with my chronic neck pain and shoulder tension. I felt pain relief after the first use! I have even been able to cut back on my chiropractor appointments because of this product. So thankful for this amazing find, as I am only 41 and have been struggling with neck pain for several years now." —Mary Beth

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in five colors).

4. Gold Bond's firming neck and chest cream if your neck and chest are starting to get just a *bit* jealous of the five-step routine you're lovingly applying to your face every night. This nonscented, nongreasy formula is infused with salicylic acid (gentle exfoliation!) and can reduce the look of crepey skin by helping with firmness, texture, and elasticity. Plus, it also contains glycerin and aloe, which add a boost of hydration, too! 

www.amazon.com

Reviewers are also super impressed by how fast it works! 

Check out a TikTok of Gold Bond in action. 

Promising review: "I am a lotion user every single day. I use face moisturizers that I love. I am over the moon by how good this is. I mainly use it on my neck, hands, and forearms. The difference is amazing. My skin actually feels so good. I wish I could but larger containers of it." —Kimberly P. 

Get it from Amazon for $11.84 (also available as a three-pack). 

5. Sol De Janeiro Bum Bum Cream, a modern-day invention that performs like it was created by an ancient alchemist — how else can it be *so* helpful for hydrating and smoothing skin? While this beauty icon is really just a mix of ingredients like cupuaca butter, coconut oil, and caffeine, reviewers are seriously blown away by the way it leaves their skin feeling firmer and more hydrated. And the luxe caramel-y, pistachio-y scent lasts a good while, so don't be surprised when people start asking what you're wearing. 👀

www.amazon.com

Caffeine has a number of skincare benefits, including brightening and temporarily reducing the appearance of stretch marks and cellulite, if that's something you're looking to do! You can read more about the skincare benefits of caffeine at the Cleveland Clinic.

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 smooth and has a creamy, nonsticky 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

Get it from Amazon for $24+ (available in five sizes and a refill tub).

6. A bottle of Elizavecca Hair Treatment if your hairstylist introduced you to the magic of Olaplex and you're trying to recreate that feeling without salon-level prices. This is a deeply hydrating formula with ceramide 3 and collagen that can improve hair texture and strength — helping to give you that healthy, shiny, and soft look you're searching for. 

www.amazon.com

This is designed to work on all hair types, with reviewers with 1c–4c hair 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

Check out BuzzFeed's full review of the Elizavecca hair treatment for more deets!

Get a bottle from Amazon for $6.75.

7. A foot peeling spray that's as easy as a quick spritz on clean, dry feet after you shower for softer, smoother soles within a few minutes! This coconut oil and aloe-infused formula can help soften and hydrate your skin, making it easier to rub off all those dead bits, especially when paired with a foot file like reviewers suggest. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This product delivers exactly as promised and is incredibly easy to use. I suffer from dry skin and often apply various products to soften my feet. With this, I simply spray it on and immediately massage it in with my hands. The dead skin comes off effortlessly. There's no waiting time, and it's gentle on the skin. It leaves my feet feeling exceptionally soft. This has quickly become my new favorite thing." —KimT

Get it from Amazon for $6.89. 

8. A tinted lip balm when you fall in love with the TikTok-famous "Black Honey" by Clinique but don't want to spend a whopping $25 to add a berry-like pop of color to your outfits. Reviewers are *super* impressed by this lightweight, hydrating, and nonsticky formula as a gorgeous alternative! If you're looking for a perfectly subtle yet buildable gloss, prepare to experience the wonders of this universal shade. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

BuzzFeed Shopping writerEmma Lord uses this: "I bought this because I crave that Black Honey and will buy it until the day I die, but I am always paranoid of losing it, so I almost never let it leave my bag. I have tried probably five or six "almost" versions of Black Honey that came close, but this one genuinely spooked me. It has the same easy glide, same buildability, and the same refreshingly hydrating effect. It was a two-pack so I gave one to my BFF, another Black Honey fan, who also could not detect the difference!"

Promising review: "Better than Clinique! I bought this one on a whim but never liked the real Black Honey Almost Lipstick by Clinique, since it tends to run red on me. This shade, in my opinion, is exactly what Black Honey SHOULD be, as it looks more like Black Honey in pictures. For the price, it can’t be beat, so I’m buying more." —HAC 

Get a pack of two from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in two other colors, individually, and as a three-pack). 

9. Billion Dollar Brows Eyebrow Powder, a lightweight, water-resistant, *and* long-lasting formula that'll fill in sparse brow hair while keeping that natural look. If that sounds familiar, you may be thinking of the $26 icon Anastasia Brow Duo — this one's just way cheaper for the same end product! 

www.amazon.com

Billion Dollar Brows is a small business that specializes in beauty products. 

Promising review: "I have found a new eyebrow enhancer powder! I’m blonde, and my eyebrows don’t show up very well. I have tried a lot of colors and products, but the rich, soft color of this one beats them all. Easily glides on, covers my gray brow hairs, and helps my eyebrows frame my face. And this one stays on all day until I wash it off! Well worth the price and the quality surprised me!!" —Pammer

Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in four shades, a two-pack, and a kit with an eyebrow brush). 

10. An enzyme-based laundry stain remover so effective, you won't have to experience a literal stomach drop after spilling red wine or sauce on your favorite top. With just a quick spritz before washing your clothes, this'll get out stains caused by sweat, oil, blood, grass, and more (yes, even on those set-in ones you thought were a lost cause). And it does it all without any sulfates, parabens, or bleaches!  

www.amazon.com

Check out a TikTok of the laundry spray in action. 

Puracy is a Texas-based, family-owned business specializing in plant-based, chemical-free, hypoallergenic home products, with a donation made to local families in need with a portion of every purchase. 

BuzzFeed Shopping writerEmma Lordcan vouch for this: "Psst — this spray also does a number on all those other miscellaneous stains in your life, like wine, coffee, soy sauce, makeup, and period blood! I recently bought this to test it for myself, and can attest to how well it works to get period blood out even after you've tried something else. I stained a pair of beloved bright-blue bike shorts in my sleep and tried to get it out with soap and water, but the stain was still there when it came out of the wash. I treated it with this, stuck it back in the wash, and BOOM, it's like it never happened (I panicked before I could get a before and after, please forgive me, laundry gods)." 

Get it from Amazon for $6.98+ (available in two sizes, as a two-pack, as a refill, and an instant or baby formula). 

11. B. tan's *one hour* self-tanner mousse that'll make it look like you spent thousands on a vacation to lie beachside in the Bahamas. If you've been trying out expensive creams with little results (or worse, that leave you more on the ~orange~ side), this gray-based formula will help give you a more natural-looking glow! Plus, it doesn't have that icky scent found in so many tanning products.  

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: “If you use St. Tropez tan products or any fake tanner, do yourself a favor and try this. This stuff is AWESOME. Dries quickly, lasts longer, does NOT make your skin stinky, applies evenly, and you get a fair amount of product!! Other tanners I’ve used become VERY noticeable when they start fading. Gross hand lines, patchy white spots, etc., but not this stuff. The best one-hour tan I have ever used!” —Amazon Customer 

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in eight styles and as a two-pack). 

12. Catrice "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener to help you look more refreshed and alert when life's got you tossing and turning all night long. With ingredients like hyaluronic acid and shea butter, it's got a hydrating, creamy, medium-coverage formula that blends like a dream, lessening the appearance of dark circles and helping to give you that "I slept eight hours last night" look. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

The color-adaptive formula is designed so one of four shades will work on any skin tone. 

Promising review: "Took years off my eyes! This product is so reasonably priced. I came across a TikTok promoting this and decided to take a chance since the price was super reasonable. My eyes looked brighter in a good way, and the concealer worked so well that I felt I looked younger. I got compliments from friends asking what I did differently with my makeup. I recommend it." —Monica T. 

Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in four shades). 

13. A cleaning gelyou can squeeze directly onto your washing machine gasket because, surprise (!), it's possible for mold to grow in there. Just let this formula sit for over five hours, and it'll work its magic to remove the gunk and stains so you can easily wipe them away. Goooood riddance!

www.amazon.com

This also works on other moldy areas, like grout lines and window frames. 

Promising review: "OMG, it worked. I've tried everything under the sun to get rid of mold on the door seal/bellows on my clothes washer. Nothing made a dent. I put this on and left it for the next day. When I looked there was nothing to wipe off and no evidence that there was any mold ever. I highly recommend this product." —Peter Callinicos 

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in four sizes and as a two-pack).

14. Hawaiian Tropic's SPF 30 Mineral Powder Sunscreen Brushthat'll protect the part of your skin I'm almost positive you forgot about — your scalp! You can tap this lightweight formula along your hair part, and keep it in your bag to reapply SPF on your face throughout the day. For less than half the price of Supergoop's, you get all the same protection, convenience, and mattifying magic. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Note that the AAD recommends using at least SPF 30 and reapplying as needed for skin protection. You can read about sunscreen myths and facts from dermatologists for more information! 

Promising review: "Wish I would have found this sooner! Works great and so far the cheapest option I have found for powder sunscreen. Love that my face isn’t greasy anymore from normal sunscreen!" —Michelle

"I have fine hair so anytime I’m in the sun I get burnt on my scalp. Regular sunscreen make my hair super oily and gross and I cannot stand wearing hats. I'm so glad I found this. You do have to apply it more often, and also it doesn’t work if it gets wet. Love this stuff, it's such a lifesaver." —james

Get it from Amazon for$14.19. 

15. Burt's Bees After Sun Soother to relieve the annual harsh reminder that sunscreen should be reapplied every two hours. The lightweight lotion is made with aloe and coconut oil to help soothe red, inflamed skin, speed up healing, and reduce peeling *without* that greasy or sticky feeling. Even with no sunburn to treat, reviewers say it's lovely for deeply moisturizing dehydrated skin after swimming, because that saltwater dryness is no joke either. 

www.amazon.com

Psst — a lot of reviewers mentioned this also helped prevent peeling and itching! And btw, it's formulated without parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, or SLS. 

Promising review: "Miracle worker! I always get sunburnt on summer vacations, without fail, no matter if I reapply sunscreen. This balm makes sure I don't have to pay the painful price. If you apply it as soon as you notice the burn, it keeps it from stinging the next day, but you do have to be on top of it. I try to make sure I do a full body burn check after coming in from the sun, before doing anything else. I usually apply it as soon as I find the burn, then a couple of times a day until the redness fades." —noble strength

Get it from Amazon for$8.93 (also available in a coconut-scented three-pack). 

16. Someheavy duty Tub O' Towels wipesyou'll want on hand for alllll the impossible messes that cross your path — from stubborn coffee spills in your car interior to permanent marker stains on your shirt, and even that annoying sticker residue! And unlike cleaning wipes, these are infused with aloe and vitamin E to help protect your skin instead of leaving it dry and crusty. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

They're also large, thick, and durable! 

Promising review: "This stuff really is magical! When we moved into our house, the previous owners did a horrible job of cleaning the stainless-steel appliances. There were permanent run marks going down the front that I could not remove....and I tried EVERYTHING. I should note that I’m not actually positive that these appliances are true stainless steel or just manufactured to look like that. I wanted to cry tears of joy after wiping down the dishwasher because I had been looking at those awful run marks for three years, and they were finally gone! The whole tub is worth it for that appliance alone." —MayBae

Get a pack of 90 from Amazon for $14.98. 

17. Some minty teeth-whitening pens capable of bringing a little bit of sparkle ✨  to your pearly whites if toothpaste and mouthwash alone aren't giving you the dazzling white you want. The narrow tip design makes it easier to really get in the grooves of your teeth (unlike Crest Whitestrips, which can slip and slide and hit your wallet a little harder). Also, reviewers say they're sensitive-friendly with quick results!

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This product actually works! Very affordable, too. There are a lot of expensive teeth whitening products out there, but why spend extra money when you don't have to? Definitely worth trying!" —Mona L Cureton

Get a two-pack from Amazon for $15.25 (also available individually and as a four-pack). 

18. E.l.f's Lash XTNDR Tubing Mascara that'll make applying falsies feel like a distant horror from the past. This long-lasting formula gives the same dramatic, lengthening look, and if you've never tried ~tubing tech~, it's beloved for being smudge-proof yet coming off with water alone! To the days of sticky glue and crooked lashes: You will not be missed. ✌️ 

Emma Lord/BuzzFeed

Check out a TikTok of the E.l.f. tubing mascara in action. 

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says: "I am not a new human to the tubing mascara game, and in fact readily spent $26 on the famous OG blend from Blinc every time it needed replacing. I didn't even love it for the length half as much as the fact that tubing mascara like this genuinely never smudges, but can I just say — regardless of price, the E.l.f. tubing mascara formula blows all the others I've tried out of the water. It gives me way more length and volume than other brands, slides on so much more easily, stays put ALL day, and never, ever smudges. My favorite part, though, is how gently and easily it comes off with soap and water. In the past, other mascara removals have felt rough on my lashes, but this comes off so fast that I'm like ??? was I even wearing mascara a minute ago?? Anyway, I hesitate even writing this review because I want to gatekeep the hell out of this before it sells out, but the world needed to know. I'm a big fan of the brown shade (which is what I'm wearing above!), but it also comes in black and soft black." 

Get it from Amazon for $8 (available in three shades). 

19. A bleach-free Wet & Forget shower cleaner reviewers call a lifesaver for removing mucky buildup in their tub, but it is also a hands, back, and knees saver because it does it without any scrubbing! It's super easy to incorporate into your weekend cleaning sesh — just spray it on, leave it for 8-12 hours, then rinse! If you leave it overnight, you'll basically be cleaning while you sleep, which is a next-level life hack. 

www.amazon.com

This is great for a bit of low-effort weekly maintenance, but if your shower is in need of a ~deep clean~, you can use this a few times in a row to get it all washed up before starting that once-a-week schedule. 

Promising review: "I saw this product on TikTok and decided to try it out for myself. The name doesn’t lie — spray it on, shut the bathroom door, and in a few hours, the shower is 100 times cleaner. Usually I’ll let it sit overnight, and by morning, the visible grime on the shower is gone, including soap scum. I’ll usually let the shower water rinse the residue out, and then will take a bucket just to get everything off the shower walls. It is a bit slick if you try to get in the shower without rinsing the residue, but otherwise it’s a worthy cleaning staple in my house." —Tara D. 

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two scents, two sizes, and as a two-pack). 

20. Some reusable Nippies nipple covers — what's even better than a comfy bra? Not having to wear one at all! These come in various shades and look pretty much seamless underneath shirts, and folks are reporting no lifting + no obvious mounds! They hold up to sweat, and there's even a version with a pull-tab for some ~lift~, sooo you're basically set with not having to buy a strapless bra just to wear tube tops this season. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "LOVE these covers. They are 100% effective, so much so that I wear them every day. I always wear a bra while out of the house, and these are perfect and so comfortable. I don't even know I have them on. They come in a cute little box that you can store in your lingerie drawer. I've bought several pairs and will continue to replace them periodically. Since I'm not using them as pasties to wear in place of a bra, they last me a lot longer. I also wash them in lukewarm water with a very mild soap and let them air dry. One pair lasts me 6 months this way. It is well worth the price of $25 to know I never have to worry about my nipples showing. I wish I had had these all my life. They are very well made and worth every penny." —Shelley Morrison

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

Get them from Amazon for $26.50+ (available in three sizes, five shades, and a lifting style).

21. A set of space-saving compression bags because no matter what the capsule wardrobe truthers say, you WILL find a way to pack your entire closet into a carry-on. Simply roll these up to get every last bit of air out without the need for vacuums or pumps that you'll have to pack for the return flight. They're especially perfect because reviewers say they hold (and compress!) so much more than regular packing cubes!

Emma Lord/BuzzFeed

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord LOVES 'em: "HELLO, I AM OBSESSED WITH THESE. Despite all the rave reviews I was definitely skeptical of space-saving bags that didn't require a vacuum, and even as they were actively squishing my clothes into oblivion I still couldn't quite believe it. I had easily two suitcases worth of clothes I wanted to pack for a three-week trip to London, and I managed to neatly pack the entirety of my wardrobe in one roller carry-on bag. Truly all I had to do was put my clothes in the bag, push them to the bottom, and then sit on it to get the air out before sealing it up. I had tons of extra bags and make a habit of taking them with me in case other people joining me on trips need them to be able to pack souvenirs on the way home. I'm never taking a long trip without these again — these are worth every damn penny." 

Psst — just note that airlines will still enforce weight limits, so don't fly TOO close to the sun packing these up!! 

Get a set of eight from Amazon for $15.28. 

22. Dr. Melaxin "Peel Shot", a rice-based exfoliation that'll gently remove dead skin and leave your complexion oh-so-radiant and glowy. The internet-beloved K-beauty formula is packed with ingredients that hydrate your skin while removing blackheads and sebum, helping reduce the appearance of texture, enlarged pores, and dullness. One reviewer says it left their skin softer than after a facial (!!), so if you're allowing the internet to influence you to try out one product today, this may be the one!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I bought this after seeing an ad on TikTok. I'm skeptical but I’m a sucker for this kinda stuff, but it is genuinely amazing. I tested it on all the different areas of my body. It didn’t do a thing to my well-exfoliated palm, but my face, legs, LIPS… baby soft with big balls of dead skin coming off. Like one of those Korean exfoliating gloves, but you don’t have to scrub like you do with those. You just gently rub it in, and your dead skin peels away. I even had a weird callous on my arm that keeps regrowing [and] it smoothed it down so cleanly. This stuff is truly magic. Just WOW." —Nellie

Get it from Amazon for $18.80 (available in five formulas). 

23. Or Buf-Puf's facial sponge for a gentle exfoliation that'll send all those dead bits of rough, dry skin dulling your complexion running out the door. Simply pair it with your fave cleanser, and it'll help draw out dirt, makeup, and oil — leaving your skin feeling SO soft and ready for the rest of your routine (seriously, your products and makeup will apply *beautifully* after)! Even reviewers with sensitive skin swear by it, saying it truly helped reduce texture and breakouts.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I used this product years ago and had the most amazing skin, but I assumed it was mostly genetics. Now that my skin is showing signs of aging, I decided to give it another try — and I’m so glad I did. My skin is transforming daily. They say your skin can rebuild itself, and it really does — especially when you remove the buildup of dead skin cells. I’ve been using it morning and night, and I genuinely look younger. My skin feels polished, my pores are noticeably smaller, and I need much less makeup. Such a fantastic product — highly recommend!" —Sweet Caroline 

Get it from Amazon for $8.13 (also available as a two-pack). 

24. A convenient portable car vacuum so you don't have to make a quick stop at the car wash every time you want to pick up the stray crumbs and wrappers from your snack sesh. This lightweight detailer plugs into your car with a 16-foot-long cord and has helpful attachments that can get in that spot between your seat and the center console that those public vacuums just cannot reach. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This was the perfect solution for a busy mom like myself. I have three little ones, and every day there is a mess of some sort in the backseat. It saves time and money to not have to go to a carwash place and keep feeding the machine. It’s simple to use and a great size. Wish the suction was a little better, but for the price and quality, I can’t complain. It’s a must!" —Amazon Customer

"TikTok made me buy it. I NEVER leave reviews buttt I was surprised at how well and powerful this vacuum was! And it wasn’t loud. 10 out of 10 recommended. Go buy it and try it for yourself." —Jessica D. Williams

Get it from Amazon for $18.99. 

25. A K-BeautyMise En Scene hair serum that'll leave your locks feeling oh-so-silky and hydrated thanks to a blend of nourishing oils, including: (*deep breath*) argan, olive, coconut, apricot, marula, jojoba, and camellia. It can help smooth frizz, reduce tangles, and protect from heat up to 446 degrees — all without leaving your locks heavy or greasy! And not to mention that gorgeous shine. 😍 

www.amazon.com

Reviewers with everything from thin, straight hair to coarse, 4c hair mention it has worked for them. 

Promising review: "Literally, the best hair product you can possibly get that is affordable and doesn’t leave your hair greasy — it makes it shiny and super soft. After I get out of the shower, when my hair is still damp, I put some on my ends and work the rest up into the top of my head. Sometimes I blow my hair dry after I get out of the shower and put it on and then after I blow dry I put it on some more, and it looks absolutely beautiful — no greasy hair here. My hair type is fine and gets oily really fast, and yet somehow this product tames it a bit and keeps it looking healthy for days! Will purchase again and again!!!" —Tara Klein

Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in two sizes, leave-in cream styles, and five other formulas). 

26. A benzene-free I Dew Care dry shampoo powder which basically banishes the evidence of oil and sweat from your roots, bringing some volume back to your flat 'do. This fine powder contains Korean ginseng and biotin, and comes in a small, travel-friendly container with a sponge applicator for easy, controlled tapping! Which is perfect, because in this heat, we're hiding limp locks with caps by noon. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Check out a TikTok of the dry shampoo in action. 

Promising review: "Will be buying again!! This is a fantastic product. I have incredibly thin hair that gets very oily very easily. This is the first product that I’ve tried that actually works! I am so very happy!" —Katie_0_Baker

Get it from Amazon for $13.59+ (available in six colors, as a refill, and packs of two and three). 

27. A bottle ofHoward wood polish to revamp the wooden furniture and cabinets that are looking a little worse for wear. The blend of beeswax, carnauba wax, and orange oil can bring out the wood's natural grain and leave behind a pretty shine! And the yummy orange scent will have everyone thinking you brought out your fancy candle for the occasion. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This stuff is absolutely AMAZING. My wife and I were getting tired of looking at our worn-out cabinets and wood paneling and were very close to paying a professional thousands of dollars to refinish it all, but then we came across this product. Our paneling and cabinets were looking rough. This stuff was like a Magic Eraser for water spots, scratches, scuffs, and any other blemish. We simply wiped the product on with a paper towel and let it sit for 20 minutes before wiping it off with a clean towel. Everything looks brand new.

The serum absorbs quickly, leaving no greasy residue, and it has a lovely, light scent. My complexion is looking more even, and I can see a visible improvement in my skin tone. I also appreciate how gentle it is on my skin, with no irritation at all. This serum has quickly become a must-have in my skincare routine!

Promising review: "The 'abrasive sponge when cold' or 'squishy when hot' is an awesome feature for the type of scrubbing you want to do. The Pink Stuff with the sponge does wonders! We have a hideous 30-year-old shower and although it doesn’t look brand-new like I was hoping, it’s 10 times better!! This product really does work!" —GreenGoddess

Get the set (one Pink Stuff jar and a "Sqeezy") from Amazon for$9.74. 

30. The viral Mixsoon Bean Essenceyou better not tell the people of TikTok you haven't tried yet, because all they'll do is yell, "Well what are ya waitin' for??" Yes, it's made with fermented ingredients (soybean, barley, pomegranate, *and* Korean pear), but it's beloved for how gently it exfoliates and helps hydrate, brighten, and smooth the skin. Just gently massage it in about two to three times a week, and you'll be glowing in no time! ✨

Promising reviews: "I saw this all over TikTok/Instagram and decided to buy it because I have a lot of sebaceous filaments on my chin and nose. It's a little expensive, but I took a gamble: it works! You can physically see the sebaceous filaments come out of your pores, it is not the product bunching up. My problem areas were so much smoother after using and are left with a moisturized glow. I then proceeded to have my boyfriend use this product to see if it worked this well on everyone on the first try, and it worked on his nose as well. Amazing stuff 🩷" —Losa

"I have hyperpigmentation and oily skin. I feel this product regulates my oil production and it helps my makeup look so flawless. 10/10." —MissKayMae

Get it from Amazon for $14.90+ (available in three sizes). 

31. A set of Bottle Bright tablets for anyone starting to get distrustful of their thermos (if so clean... why so brown?). Just drop these in with warm water and let it soak for 30 minutes or overnight, and watch the stains on your Owala, plastic Tupperware, and ceramic mugs vanish, leaving behind a squeaky clean surface and zero aftertaste.

www.amazon.com

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 — bottle brush, different kinds of soap, vinegar, EVERYTHING — and there was still a seemingly impenetrable layer of black sludge inside. It grossed me out so much that I bought ANOTHER Hydro Flask to replace it. Eventually they both got black inside, so I tried these little magic tablets. 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." —Amazon Customer

32. A jewelry cleaning stick that has ultra-fine bristles to remove that film covering your pieces so your bling can actually, well, bling. ✨  It's filled with a gel solution that'll easily remove all that dirt, sweat, and ~gunk~, as well as reduce the appearance of scratches. Reviewers say it makes their jewelry shine like they just got it cleaned by a professional! (Yes, really for under 10 bucks)!

Promising review: "I absolutely love this product. I saw it on TikTok and figured I would give it a try. My grandmother passed away almost eight years ago, and she left me her first engagement ring in her will. I have tried so many jewelry cleaners, toothpaste, and toothbrush, you name it, tried everything except for sending it away to get cleaned. I ordered the Diamond Dazzle Stik on Thursday, and it arrived the following Saturday, fast shipping! Today is Sunday, and I cleaned my ring with the Diamond Dazzle Stik. My ring is just as shiny as it was when my grandfather bought it for my grandmother many, many years ago. I will definitely use this Diamond Dazzle Stik on all my jewelry. Highly recommended!" —Heather

Get it from Amazon for $9.48+ (available in two sizes, a two- or three-pack, and in a kit with the Diamond Dazzle cloth, also soldseparately).

HELLO — I found this through a recommendation on a Reddit beauty forum for people in their thirties, and I am OBSESSED. I am not very skilled with makeup and was intimidated by the brush factor, but it's nearly foolproof. This foundation straight-up glosses over my pores and redness and makes my skin look so even-toned and natural that it doesn't look like I used much foundation at all. It's a bit price-y compared to brands I used in the past, but I'm still on my first bottle of it, and it's been three full months. I hope this never stops getting made. It is so lightweight and lovely and has made my makeup routine feel like a TREAT. 

Promising review: "Bought this because I saw it on TikTok, and it did not disappoint. I love the lightweight feel of it and how easy it is to build." —Smickens

Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (available in 12 shades). 

34. A sulfate-free rosemary and biotin shampoo that leaves reviewers with soft, healthy-looking locks and has even helped strengthen strands and reduce the amount of shedding for some within a few months! It also creates a refreshing, cooling sensation that one persondescribes as the feeling of having tiny fairies with cool hands give you a head massage, sooo I'm sold. 🧚

Promising review: "My hair was starting to thin rapidly in my mid-20s. Thankfully, I caught it early. I started using this shampoo regularly, and haven’t done any other treatments. The thinning immediately slowed and eventually stopped. It’s six years later, and I still have a great, full head of hair. Judging by my family history, I should be totally bald by now, and this product is the only thing I've used. I credit this stuff with saving my hair! What a miracle!" —Amazon Customer

Psst — reviewers mention this is most effective when paired with a scalp massager to work it into their roots! 

35. A pack of dual-sided SneakErasers (as seen on Shark Tank!) because the kicks that have carried you through every errand and vacay deserve a little TLC. They're double-sided, so you can use one section to clean up scuffs and stains, and the other to whiten 'em up!

Promising review: "I have a couple of pairs of sneakers I stopped wearing because they started looking a bit grungy. Just couldn't justify throwing them away, though, because they were still in great shape and not very old. I came across these sponges and took a chance. They work like a charm. I cleaned two pairs of shoes and could not believe the results! Awesome." —Spencer

36. L'Oréal Paris BB Cream, which may look a bit like you're about to burst out into a "Defying Gravity" number when you first put it on, but is actually filled with encapsulated pigments that adapt to your skintone and neutralize redness as you rub it in! This magical formula feels super lightweight but still offers a solid amount of coverage. (Some people even use it alone as their base!) It's similar to the Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Color Correcting Cream, but for a wickedly good price. 😈 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I’d yet to find anything (even foundation) that could cover up my red areas. Cheeks, chin, nose, and forehead. It comes out green, but has a gorgeous lightweight finish of a tint that indeed covers my redness beautifully. There’s no greasiness to it at all. It dries down to a beautiful matte finish. It’s super easy to use. I use my fingers. The texture is like silk. It leaves my face baby-soft, not sticky at all. It doesn’t settle into my fine lines or wrinkles, and I don’t need powder to 'bake' it under my eyes. It also covers the black circles under my eyes." —Julie F. 

Get it from Amazon for $10.97 (available as a two-pack and four other shades). 

37. A bottle of Angry Orange pet odor eliminator that'll save you from the unimaginable: your fur bestie (enemy?) peeing on your couch. Reviewers say this pet-safe spray works like magic to eliminate smells and messes (yes, even the old, set-in ones) when nothing else would.

Promising review: "This product has become a must in our household! We discovered it while looking for another scent/odor control product that had a strong citrus scent to spray around a Christmas tree a year or so ago, when one of our dogs suddenly decided that he was going to start peeing on the Christmas tree every night. Not only did it deter him from peeing on it, it smells fantastic, and now we use it all the time for any smells around the house, pet odor-related or not! It only takes one or two sprays as well, and the whole area smells fabulous afterward." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in two sizes and two scents).

This takes 30 minutes to dry and has a built-in primer and top coat that works on wood, metal, fabric, and more to create a long-lasting finish that'll hold up to daily use. If your kitchen is feeling blah, maybe all you need is a splash of "Belle of the Ball" on the cabinets to refresh the space!

Country Chic Paint is a family-owned small business that specializes in all-in-one paint. 

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

"I saw this on TikTok and it looked so easy. I’ve hated my TV stand since I bought it. It was all black and just brought the room down. I used two coats and it is perfect! 10 outta 10 recommend!" —Gig94Em

Get it from Amazon for $16.95+ (available in 54 colors and four sizes). 

39. An "Angry Mama" microwave cleaner when you don't want your arms burning from trying to scrub off the week-old queso that exploded onto the roof of your microwave. Just fill with water and vinegar, microwave for seven minutes, and the steam it releases will help loosen the stubborn crud so you can simply wipe it away! Thanks, Mama! 

www.amazon.com

Check out a Tiktok of the "Angry Mama" microwave cleaner in action. 

Promising review: "I would give this product more stars if I could. I am a busy mom and my microwave often gets pushed to the end of my never ending to do list. So much so that I would have been too embarrassed to show anyone how gross it had gotten. I finally ordered this with the hope that it would at least help make the job a little bit easier. I was AMAZED! Seriously, the hardest part of the entire experience was trying to get the little mama’s head off to fill it and that only took a minute to figure out. I followed the directions carefully and then used a sponge to wipe off the grease and food bits. My microwave looks brand new. I will probably use a microfiber cloth next time though because the sponge pushed the mess around and wasn’t needed to scrub at all. Also because I tried it out right away, that meant that I didn’t have any kind of essential oils or lemon juice to add to the vinegar and water mixture but honestly the smell wasn’t too bad, but it might be an issue for someone very sensitive to the smell of vinegar. If you dread cleaning your microwave, order this, I’m telling you it really does work wonders!" —M.J

Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in four colors). 

40. An over-the-door stuffed animal organizer, because Teddy has been lying abandoned on the floor for far too long, and honestly, does not deserve to be constantly tripped over. 🥲 It's easy to install (just hang it from the top of the door!), the mesh pockets have lots of space, and it creates an easy system for your kiddos to stay organized!

Promising review: "Awesome quality, and HUGE! I’ve wasted money on cheaper versions of this, and now I know I won’t go back. Really sturdy, and holds more than you expect. Using it in my sewing room for fabric, interfacing, and batting, and it works like a charm. Going to order another one for my other closets because this inspired me to use it everywhere. Also, the free stickers were a cute bonus!" —Alexis Crumer
