Promising review: "I honestly wish I could come on here and say it’s not worth the money…but it is. It’s worth every penny. This body scrub is GOD tier. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to buy another brand again. There is not one thing I can complain about with this product.

Not only does this quiet down those annoying hinges, but it also protects against corrosion, loosens rusted parts, and drives out moisture, just like the OG version.

Promising review: "I love WD-40 products and use them for everything. I spray on shovels to keep dirt or snow from sticking, spray around windows and thresholds to deter bugs, clean Sharpies off wood and walls, and, of course, stop squeaky doors. These small direct-point application pens are great. Keep one in the glove box, my kitchen 'junk' drawer, and the house toolbox." —BBP623

5. A giant dachshund pillow to fill the void left by your actual pup who refuses to cuddle when you want to (and instead only hops in your lap as soon as you need to get up 😩). 

Amazon

Promising reviews: "He doesn’t drop his food all over the floor, won’t yap at every passing car, and also won't hump my leg until it’s black and blue. He’s well-behaved, and I’m hoping he’ll teach a thing or two to my other dachs." —Pet Detective

"I got this to surprise my roommate because she loves dachshunds. I had assumed the size of the stuffy was slightly exaggerated in the product photos, but I was wrong! It’s actually quite large and plush, very nice quality for the price. It came sort of shrink-wrapped, so it was easy to wrap it up as a present and we’ve already run it through the washer with no issue, easy to clean." —Kathryn

Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in two sizes and a fox version).

6. A root touchup powder that has TikTokers *shook* with how well it covers up their grown-out roots or grays between hair appointments (because our hair never grows fast when we want, but it'll grow out those grays like a week after a salon visit 😒) and how it gives the illusion of fullness on any thinning areas. Seriously, you need to watch the video; it seems like some sort of magic trick.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

It comes with a little sponge attached for easy application.

Promising reviews: "This product is awesome. Covers the grays/roots. Stays on all day. Also, if you have thin hair, it will fill in the spots nicely. Comes with a sponge that you unscrew off the bottom. This will last a very long time. This is much easier to use than the spray that doesn't always get the right spots and tends to get on your clothes. A good selection of colors. Great price. Will re-order when the time comes." —Amazon Customer

"LOVE! so easy to use and perfect for helping my thinned hairline from postpartum hair loss. I tried a more expensive brand and liked this one more. Definitely recommend it for helping the hairline look fuller. I toss it in my makeup bag and apply quickly ." —Catie B.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

The inner bowl and lid are both dishwasher-safe!

Promising review: "I love this product, does exactly what it's supposed to do. It doesn't stink up a room with a heated food smell. It's compact and adorable; the color is consistent, the texture is nice and smooth, and it is matte, so it doesn't look cheap at all. There's only one temperature setting, but I don't have an issue with that at all." —Brian

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

11. A smudge-correcting clear nail polish because, truly, there is not much worse than spending loads of time perfecting your mani just to bump into something the second you're done. Just add this to any dents or nicks, and it's like you jumped into a nail salon time machine.

Amazon

Promising review: "This refreshes my worn-out manicure very well. I apply this as a topcoat over my old manicure. It respreads and smooths out the polish and leaves it fresh and shiny. It's a bit pricey, but it does save me a lot of time and trouble not having to repolish my nails." —SoniaSophia

Get it from Amazon for $20.

Amazon

Promising review: "We bought this to replace a similar yet old one from Bed, Bath and Beyond that had outlived its utility. We found this one on Amazon, and it has been put to use nearly every morning, whether for eggs, pancakes, or anything else made in a frying pan. Couldn't do without it." —William Capodano

13. A set of self-tying shoelaces to make any shoe into a slip-on so you don't have to waste time fumbling with getting those bunny ears tied up when you're already five minutes late.

Amazon, www.amazon.com

A lot of runners and athletes also swear by these for training and races, since it's a guarantee their shoes won't come untied (and it also helps distribute the tension through the entire top of your foot, preventing localized injuries for longer runs!). You can also adjust the tension easily if your feet are more swollen on a particular day.

Promising review: "I purchased two pairs of my running shoes (49-year-old male). They work very well, and I have put a bunch of miles on them. No more tying and untying; just slip it on. I like how they keep unified tension across the entire laces from top to bottom. I have had no issues with the lace lock at all; it snapped in well." —Scott

Get them from Amazon for $9.99 (available in 17 colors).

14. A cocktail mixer sure to be the center of attention at your next party. All you have to do is pour in the alcohol and mixers and this thing will handle the rest!!

Plus this is like an investment, you don't have to hire a bartender or spend the whole night whipping up drinks for your guests.

Amazon

Barsys is a small biz working to help you elevate your cocktail game.

Promising review: "The Barsys 360 is amazing! I say this as a true mixologist, who has been a bartender at a mixology bar. While I still love to make cocktails mussels, the ease of use and speed at which I can serve myself and my guests cocktails makes this a home run product. It is 100% plug and play out of the box, and the machine is sleek and a conversation piece. With 10 compartments to put alcohol and mixers, the 360 allows me to make dozens of cocktails with the touch of my phone. The app is super easy to use and has tons of great mixology info and recipes. Best of all, it is self cleaning with a push of a button. I highly recommend the 360, and think it would make an amazing gift for the holidays." —Michael H. Riskind

Get it from Amazon for $427.

16. An extendable silicone straw because sometimes, when you're rotting on the couch, you can't even be bothered to lift up that heavy Stanley cup when you're parched. Now you can bring the beverage to you with the utmost convenience.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Bought for working out because I’d rather use my cup than water bottles, and honestly, I was surprised to see that it works. The straw is longer than expected. The only flaw is the straw is hard to get in if you have ice already in your cup." —lisa

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in four colors).

17. A Spatty Daddy set so you never again have to waste at least one serving of your fave condiments, icing, or makeup product because it got stuck to the sides, and no matter how much you shake it, you just can't get it off.

Promising review: "So worth it! I'm so happy with it. You will definitely save money using this. I think about how much I could have saved if this was invented 30 years ago. I mostly use it for small makeup jars. I tested out the Spatty Daddy on an 18-ounce lotion and it worked fine. You get so much more makeup than you would without it. I give it five stars." —Liz

Amazon

This is designed for ages 3–12. Each slide piece has a nonslip bottom that grips the stairs for a safe ride down. And they stack for convenient storage! 

Promising review: "Exactly as described! Well worth the price. Toddlers can use it with supervision and a soft landing on the stairway in our house. Easy to put on stairs, bed, or couch — my kids slide everywhere in the house! You can make it as big as you'd like. When put all together and steep it does go really fast, so be cautious. It's very strong and durable! It’s easy to collapse and put away onto itself in a corner or out of sight. Takes five seconds to put back up. No damage has been done to furniture or stairs. It has tired the kids out and also made them laugh so hard! All three take turns over and over again. We love it." —Jess

Get a set of four from Amazon for $259.99+ (also available in a set of eight).

20. A splurge-worthy bottle of EltaMD UV Clear Face Sunscreen perfect for protecting even the most sensitive skin from the sun without leaving behind that annoying white cast and residue. It can also help calm rosacea, hyperpigmentation, and acne-prone skin...what can't it do?!

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Because I have hated just about every facial sunscreen (especially you, Supergoop, lol) I’ve ever tried, the price for this product is honestly worth it. Doesn’t feel greasy, oily, or silicone-y. Doesn’t leave a white cast. Doesn’t have a strong odor. It really just feels like I’m putting another layer of moisturizer on. If I go out with only this SPF with no makeup, my skin looks nice, dewy, and moisturized, but never oily or greasy. Most importantly, this keeps my rosacea in check!" —Christina Chetwood

Get it from Amazon for $23+ (available in two sizes and a two-pack). 

21. A magnetic towel so you can have it with you at every station at the gym or easily accessible while you're on the treadmill, and you don't have to worry about it getting shoved into a cupholder or put on top of the leg press machine where you have no idea what's been there before (sweat and dust are probably just the tip of the iceberg 🥴). It even comes with a clip, so you can still feel good about wiping your face when there isn't anything magnetic around.

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in two scents).

25. A buffet cabinet no one will believe is from Amazon, and certainly not that it was under $100! Crate & Barrel who?!

Amazon

The shelves are adjustable so the cabinet can be tailored to your needs!

Promising review: "Because I purchase a lot from Amazon, I don't often write reviews unless I am exceptionally happy with the product, and this one qualifies! My order came meticulously well packed and protected. All hardware was included with an additional packet of extra hardware, just in case. Directions are well written and easy to understand. All parts were labeled with stickers or printed on the bags. All the pieces are finished with no raw edges showing anywhere, even on the back. There is great attention to detail, including felt pads for the bottom and stick-ons to hide a few exposed screw heads on the legs. The materials appear very solid and high quality. The hardware and assembly design ensures a strong and solid build. The assembly process itself went very smoothly. The first cabinet took my husband and I about an hour and a quarter to assemble. The second cabinet took about 45 minutes. I highly recommend this product." —Liz

Venalli/Etsy, Daniel Boan/BuzzFeed

Venalli is a small Etsy shop based in Overland Park, Kansas.

BuzzFeed writer Daniel Boan has these and says, "This is one of those "where has this been all my life?!" type of products. I'm a sucker for a soft hoodie, especially ever since my apartment became my office, and now I can wear them 24/7. As much as I love curling up in them, hanging hoodies in the closet is SUCH a pain. They always slip right off my plastic hangers unless I zip them all the way up, so they usually just end up thrown over a random chair (or that mini elliptical I bought in March 2020 and have used a total of two times 😬). These little hook-shaped hangers are the storage miracle I never knew I needed. Now I can just hang my sweatshirts and jackets by the hood and easily grab them when I need them — no zipping or folding necessary! Best of all, the pile of random hoodies on my chair has disappeared. I'm keeping the mini elliptical covered, though."

Get a pack of 10 from Venalli on Etsy for $19.99.

Promising review: "I’ve had this first aid kit for several years under my kitchen sink and have never had to restock, even with generous use. This kit has pretty much everything you might need within reason, for a great price as well. This kit has been a service to those living in my apartment, from basic shaving cuts to a deep laceration for the hip. After a freak accident in which I fell on, broke, and stabbed myself in the love handle area with my glass water bottle, this kit allowed me to stay calm and pressurize the wound with gauze and bandages while arranging a ride to the ER." —Olivia K

Get it from Amazon for $25.36.
