43 Personal Care Products Reviewers Call “Wizardry,” “Sorcery,” Or Just Plain “Magic”
Promising review: "This stuff is magic. I’ve been using it on my face for about two weeks now and I’ve already seen a huge difference. I use it three times a day. My scars are lighter and some have disappeared already. I can’t imagine what my skin will look like after a month of use!" —Taylor Wentz
Promising review: "This product is awesome!!! I have been using it for a couple of months for acne scars and I have seen a huge reduction in scarring, depth of scars, and redness/color of scarring. My skin is smoother, the color is much more even, my skin never breaks out anymore, and the scars that I still have aren't really noticeable. I use it a.m. and p.m. I had given up that anything would help my acne scars. I have tried tons of products. This product is amazing!!!" —bkm61

Promising review: "Works like magic. It doesn’t leave a white mask over your face and it’s amazing" —Mona
Promising review: "I'll admit, I'm horrible at using sunscreen. Mostly because I hate the texture, smell, and white cast. Since hitting my thirties, I've been taking better care of my skin and have begun using sunscreen fairly regularly. I've triedLA Roche Posay's melt in milk sunscreen, which I like but hate that it leaves a white cast. I've recently tried Drmtlgy's tinted sunscreen, but hate the smell and felt that it didn't provide much in terms of tint. My coworker told me about Cosrx's sunscreen, and so I figured, why not give it a shot? I received it first thing this morning and used it right after doing my usual skincare routine. I must say, I'm in love. I love the smell; I love how quickly it blends into the skin. I love how it absorbs and gives you a glowing look, and best part: no white cast! It makes my skin feel hydrated. It's non-greasy, and it doesn't make your skin feel tight like some sunscreens do. This is now the 5th Cosrx product I've bought and tried, and I must say, I'm loving their entire line of products. Highly recommend." —Nia

Promising review: "My son has eczema and sensitive skin. We had tried a lot of different moisturizer and didn't work out for him. Then our doctor suggested us to try Vanicream, it works like magic! You can actually feel the moisture for the skin, like an extra protection on his skin. And my son's eczema gets better too! We have been using this moisturizer ever since." —Kylie

Apply this gentle treatment 3–4 times a day, or 4–6 times if the situation is more serious.
Promising review: "Magic in a bottle. I saw results the first time I used this. I had a mild breakout of small red bumps that I, of course, picked at and made 100 times worse…nothing I was using made a difference, and the bumps kept coming back. Suffice it to say, I searched Amazon for butt acne solutions, and this was one I came across. Because of the reviews, I figured I had nothing to lose. I'm so glad I did because, as I said, the first night made a huge difference, and since I’ve done am and night, after I shower. No new breakouts and completely cleared skin. I can’t thank the makers enough for this product. This will be a part of my daily skin routine going forward." —Michelle Borges

Promising review: "What is this sorcery? Okay, so I’m not gonna lie. I thought all of the before and after pics were fake, but I was desperate so I bought this stuff anyway. I had been dealing with an irritation bump for almost three months that I couldn’t get rid of, so I did some research and tried a variety of home remedies, none of which worked. Then I stumbled upon the Briotech spray and saw the before and after pictures and wanted soooo badly to believe them. I also didn’t want to get my hopes up, so I wrote them off as fake. I bought this stuff anyway (again, I was desperate) and I’m SO glad I did. I bought it on Sept. 5th and my bump (which was huge and awful) was completely gone on Sept. 25th. I’m still in shock that it worked, but i’m so happy it did. Buy this! Stick with it and I promise you won’t regret it!" —iamericadelaney

Promising review: "I’m honestly not too sure what kind of sorcery this shampoo has. But my dandruff is gone. After 2 weeks of using it 1-2 times a week, it’s gone. And I’m impressed!!" —Cortney
Promising review: "This fixed my dandruff almost immediately. I have tried different dandruff shampoos and hair care routines for YEARS without any success. I've used cleansing shampoos and hair oils, minimized any heat used on my hair, changed my diet, switched up shampoos frequently, used a scalp scrubbing tool, and tried going multiple days without washing my hair...and yet, I still struggled with dandruff and itchy scalp. The itching was unbearable. I decided to give Nizoral a try as a last-ditch effort, and my god, it has completely CHANGED my life. I am no longer itchy, and I have virtually zero flakes still left on my hair. I wash my hair every 2-3 days and do not struggle with the same issues I used to. The scent is fine for me — it's a "clean" scent, so I don't mind it. I did not notice any drying of my hair. I used it every wash for a few weeks (the bottle says eight weeks), and now I just use it as needed. Probably every 5-6 washes. I hope you have as much success as I did with this product!" —Jenn

Promising review: "I never leave reviews, but this stuff, after one week, took away the elephant-looking skin on my knees!! And it seems to be working magic on the back of my hands. I'm a firm yes on this. I think the scent is nice — lots of reviews stating otherwise. It's a floral scent and is a little sweet, but it doesn't permeate for hours, it fades. Love this." —Schwenketta

Promising review: "I usually don’t write reviews, but this one deserved one. I’ve been dealing with my nose ring bump for like two years on and off. So I was a little skeptical at first because I didn’t buy the set with the saline, but honestly it works perfectly. Patience is definitely key. The first week of using my bump did get bigger, which I thought was great. This isn’t going to work, but I kept using it, and it did its thing !!! This is week 3 or 4, and my bump is almost completely gone. I was using it once a day at first, then switched to two times a day. I honestly think 2x a day did the trick. And do not pick at it. Let it work its magic. But def highly recommend." —Lynn Claude
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

Promising review: "Legit magic in a bottle. Wish I could order this stuff by the gallon. Took a chance on this because I was desperate, having already spent so much money on luxury and drugstore products with little results. I use this as a pre-treatment on scalp and ends before I wash hair. Scalp has improved dramatically. I feel like there’s not as much breakage/fallout, and my ends are fuller. (This is after like six months, but my scalp was better immediately.)" —Claire Blanchard
Promising review: "I hardly write reviews.. but this one deserves to be written about!! My hair was falling out a LOT, and somehow just with the FIRST application onwards, I started seeing less fall. And now, after four months, I can see hair growth as well, and my hair is already looking thicker!! And I’ve been using it only once a week.. just a few drops and massaging in. Omg, how can anything be so simple and yet so effective!!! Amazing! Amazing!!! Whoever invented this.. hats off!!" —Dee

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

I have tried so many scrubs and moisturizers that failed. I came across this product and its now on my subscribe and save list. There are TONS of exfoliants in the scrub so it's super effective. Skin feels so soft after using it because it gets ALL of the dry and dead skin cells completely off.

I am happy to report that this product is a lifesaver. My thighs didn't chafe once, and I have big ones! I had to reapply once during the day. I strongly recommend buying this if you have large thighs and need relief from chafing. I couldn't wear dresses or skirts in the heat if I was walking anywhere, and now I live in them because of this stuff! Buy it! It works!" —Carwizzle

Promising review: "Magic! If I could give this hand cream 1,000 stars, I would. Winter is AWFUL on my hands. They’re constantly dry, cracking, scaly and sometimes they bleed. I bought the L’Occitane on a whim after reading about hand creams for dry skin. When I say I’ve tried just about all of them I mean it. I’ve tried Working Hands, Corn Huskers lotion, Aquaphor and other drugstore lotions, and none of them worked as fast or as remarkably as this one. $30 is a steep price for a hand cream, but that’s about how much I’ve spent on other lotions combined, so really, it’s a win-win situation for me. I definitely plan on keeping this on hand (pun intended) throughout the year. I will most definitely be repurchasing this when I run out and possibly getting a smaller one to keep in my purse so I don’t lose the large one. If you’re on the fence about buying it, buy it!" —Shannan

Reviewers recommend using a thinner sunscreen; if your preferred sunscreen is quite thick, this may not work for you.

Emma Lord/BuzzFeed
Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord has to say: "I personally bought this a few months ago and love it! 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. I've switched to using this in the morning and the electric one at night and definitely see a difference in that area in particular."
Promising review: "I hate flossing because I have sensitive gums (genetic periodontal issues). This toothbrush is magic. Brush slower, and with intention, and your mouth will feel as clean as it does when you leave the dentist." —C & A D
Promising review: "This was another one of my TikTok purchases! I was skeptical, but my kids hate flossing their teeth, so thought this might help in between making them floss. They work amazingly! My kids said they could see and feel a difference on the first use, and I agree! They are definitely worth a try! I would suggest not pushing too hard; those tiny bristles really get in there, and if you push too hard, you might be sore like I was. It felt like after going to a dental cleaning." —Amy N.

Promising review: "LIKE MAGIC. I am a true skeptic when it comes to products that seem too good to be true, so I was extremely shocked with how incredibly well this worked. I had a wart on my finger that I had used it on. Despite being rooted in my finger pretty well, it did come loose. It seemed not all of it did, though, so I didn't think it was going to work, but with patience, it completely went away and has stayed away for over six months now. You would never know it had even been there in the first place. Seriously buy this if you're thinking about it. It's amazing!" —Danielle S.
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

It comes in two separate pieces, upper and lower half, which makes it more customizable in terms of fitting your face. I was a little skeptical at first like how could this really be that different than other sheet masks? But the first time I used it, the next day I noticed the deep wrinkle in my forehead was so much smoother! About a week after using it the first time, I also had someone tell me I looked refreshed and well-rested.

My pores are suddenly nonexistent and my blackheads have shrunk. This stuff is amazing. Also it’s really moisturizing and not as irritating as other retinoids I have used in the past.

Promising review: "What sorcery is this?? It’s magic in a pretty bottle. Beyond amazed that it works, honestly. I remember trying Nair back in high school, but it didn’t work so well and smelled icky. So I was already skeptical. I hadn’t shaved my legs for more than two months. Decided to give this a shot because I loathe shaving and I’m lazy. Tried it on one leg first while watching a chick flick and snacking on cheese and crackers, and six minutes later…holy buckets!! All the hair just wiped right off. How in the hell…it was all gone. Could not wait to do the second leg to witness the magic again. Fun hair removal? Yup! Smoother than I’ve ever been. Absolutely pain-free. Waxing can also suck it. It’s day three and still smooth!" —AMR

Promising review: "I am so in love with this eye cream! Seriously, this stuff is amazing!!! I have used it for five days and already the difference is noticeable. I got 2 hours of sleep last night and still I look well rested. That, is nothing short of magic...like created by woodland fairies. The puffiness is gone the discoloration is almost completely gone. I’m okay with my laugh lines, I’ve earned every one of them, and I’ve grown kind of attached to them. I love who I am but I hate always looking like I still need sleep. This cream is worth the money and I will be putting this in automatic reorder as soon as I figure how long it will take to go through a bottle. You use so little that I’m having trouble predicting how long it will take me to go through a bottle. Buy it and love it or don’t and miss out...it’s your call." —Cassandra

Reviewers with everything from thin, fine hair to 4c curls have reported positive results from this moisturizing formula, which is particularly recommended for folks whose hair is damaged from using hot tools, bleach, and the like. And btw, This is the same brand that makes the Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask so many people swear by (and it looks damn cool).
Promising review: "What is this wizardry? So this isn’t a large tube of the product but I quickly found out that you do not need as much as I thought for a mask. This also does not have a smell or if it does it is very lightly fragranced. As soon as I let my hair down in the shower after using this mask, it was like I had soaked my hair in fabric softener. It is SO SOFT! After my hair had dried it feels like silk. This is amazing. 10 out of 10 and buying again when I run out." —DanglyAnkles
Promising review: "I have 4c hair and was looking for a protein treatment for my thin and fragile. I had recently used a product in my hair that had so much alcohol in it that wreaked havoc on my hair, leaving it pretty damaged. I was very skeptical about this product because I had never seen anyone with my hair type use it. Boy, was I wrong to doubt this product; it left my hair looking and feeling beautiful. I highly recommend it to anyone natural or with curly hair." —Therese-Claire

When it comes to vitamin C, this formulation is on the stronger side, so you should do a patch test before using! And make sure you use SPF after (tbh as you should every morning)! Though the bottle looks small, reviewers say it'll last you several months with daily use.
Promising review: "Obsessed. Magic in a bottle pretty much. It’s amazing how this very fair-priced product is genuinely effective almost overnight. Have you ever had a product that you applied and took a nap and woke up and you could genuinely see the difference? no, without a doubt, THIS IS IT? Yeah this one is it. I wash my skin and apply it on fresh skin then give it a few seconds to seep in then apply a moisturizer on top. It’s a good product when you buy a second bottle before you finish the first one out of fear haha!" —Anna Vuitton
Promising review: "I should have started using this years ago! I’m in my mid-30s, and I’ve tried everything, including much more expensive brands, Korean skincare, Japanese skincare, etc., but I’ve always had breakouts and problems with texture. This is by far the best vitamin C product I’ve tried. I’ve tried multiple vitamin C serums in the past, but they always broke me out or had a slimy or gritty texture. This serum has a smooth texture, soaks in quickly, does not pill with other products, and has noticeably cleared up my skin." —Amazon Customer

As with all skincare products, if you're acne-prone YMMV, depending on the cause of your acne. Following up with a good water-based cleanser (like Anua's deep-cleansing foam) is key with oil cleansers!
Promising review: "This product is incredible. After one use, I noticed a difference. I am so impressed with it. I don’t know what kind of sorcery this is, but I am happy it exists. If you’ve been buying products to get rid of blackheads and nothing is working, this will make you very happy." —A

Use on its own or pair with Juno & Co's reusable makeup remover pad ($5.99)!
Promising review: "Sorcery! This stuff is straight magic! I use false lashes and this stuff takes every kind of glue I use off with ease! Literally just rubbed the tiniest bit on and wiped it off. It takes off my black glue liner and my falscara lash bond so much more gently than anything I've tried so far without breaking the bank, and left my skin feeling soft and moisturized! WORTH IT! I won't use anything else again!" —Michelle
Promising review: "I actually have a subscription for this product. Use it every night to cleanse the day off. I have sensitive skin and have to be careful with products. It doesn't leave skin feeling greasy." —Kindle Customer

Promising review: "This stuff is magic. I am not kidding you; this is my first Amazon review ever. Just a few weeks ago, my nails were brittle and pealing, I always had my nails done and they were pretty much destroyed… then I saw this on TikTok and decided to give it a try and I legitimately have never had healthier nails in my life! If you’re thinking about buying this… buy it!" —Jocelyn Nackley

Promising review: "Real life sorcery!!! Saw this on a BuzzFeed article about products people swear will change your skin. Figured I could risk $15 on a product. And holy cannoli I am so glad I did. Within 2 days (2 DAYS!!!) of using this on my face I saw a difference. I have extremely sensitive, easily irritated skin. As a result, I generally have redness on my cheeks and nose all of the time. I also have a tendency to get cystic acne bumps that take weeks to dissipate. NOT ANYMORE!! Those bad boys vanish within a couple days and are nowhere near as painful and visible. The redness is gone, my pores are smaller, there are no little bumps of uneven sin, my skin tone is even, and my face and neck are astonishingly soft. Like, watch out baby butts, there's a new standard for softness around here. And the natural glow it provides? Remarkable! I use a nickel sized amount on my face and neck at night. And 3-4 drops of my face in the morning before I put on makeup. It absorbs easily, doesn't make me feel greasy, and is quite possibly as close to a magic potion as I have found. I've even got my boyfriend using it and his eczema is the best it has been in years. If you're in doubt, don't be, BUY THIS." —Emily

Promising review: "I feel like I have tried every product in the market for detangling curly hair on my 2-year-old daughter. This is the BEST purchase and product ever!! I spray to detangle after a bath at night and then re-spray the next morning before school after getting dressed. It reworks its magic the second time around, and she arrives home with her hair so bouncy, and the curls are so tame!!" —BK
Promising review: "Alright, folks, gather 'round for the comedy show starring the Leave-In Hair Detangler for Curly Hair! And just to clarify, I'm not being bribed to say this – this is an unpaid review So picture this: my hair, usually a nest of rebellious curls, meets this detangler, and it's like they're at a peace conference. No more morning showdowns, no more tangled drama. It's like the hair angels sprinkled magic dust on my locks. I don't know what's in this stuff, but I suspect it's a mix of wizardry and unicorn tears. I mean, it makes combing through my curly jungle a breeze – a hair-raising experience in all the right ways! Now, I've tried some wild hair products in my time, but this one? It's the real deal, folks. If you've got curly chaos up top, give this detangler a spin. It'll turn your daily hair routine into a comedy show with a happy ending – no bad hair days here! 💁♀️🪄"—SKrebs

Promising review: "What sorcery is this? Works unbelievably well. Use a small amount to minimize skin peeling." —sntrada
Promising review: "Miracle product! The only problem with this product is that I didn't find it sooner. I've tried just about everything to avoid irritation around my bikini line and nothing has worked like this product! I noticed improvements on the first day, so I had to get the smaller, roller applicating bottle, too. I'm hoping that will prevent me from wasting product, versus applying it with a cotton ball. Either way, I'm subscribing to this product. The confidence boost, in itself, is worth the cost!" —Amanda
