1. A waterless dry shampoo *foam* if you just DON'T have time (or energy) for an "everything" shower. This lets you cancel out the grease and add some volume back to your locks without worrying about having to shake out the residue of your usual powder or spray dry shampoos.
Promising review: "I have very, very fine and fragile hair. It’s wavy (2b–2c with some 3a curls mixed in). My ends are dry, and my scalp gets very oily quickly. When the product arrived, I was on second-day hair. I worked the foam through my roots and the sides of my head. The most oily places for me. It was easy to work through, and it smelled fresh and clean. My results were amazing! My roots looked clean, no residue or buildup like powder dry shampoos. My scalp does not itch, and it gives my fine, flat hair a ton of volume. Also, my hair looks thicker when I use it. I usually can’t go more than a day or two without washing my hair. With this product, I was able to go four days without washing my hair." —Amelia Tilton

2. A set of foldable storage bags with large clear windows and handles that'll make it easy for you to finally deem your closet an *organized* one. These will let you store all those off-season layers away without having to open each and every one when you want to scout out your favorite sweater.
Promising review: "These bags are so GREAT!! I have so many clothes. I was surprised to find that just about all of my summer clothes fit in one bag. I was able to put six fluffy throw blankets in one with so much more space left to fill. In another, one queen size comforter with a few pillowcases to fill in the gapped spaces. I will be definitely be ordering more in the future. I think they'd come in handy for moving. Such SPACE SAVERS!!! Fit perfectly under my bed. To save more space, I plan on buying bed risers, so I can double stack the backs for more space. I am very well pleased!" —Wanda

3. A miraculous veggie chopper with four interchangeable blades that slice and chop your fruits and veggies for you. It cuts down your food prep time by a LOT, making it a huge relief for when you have guests coming over and you didn't know making stir fry could take that long.
Check out a TikTok of the veggie chopper in action.
Promising review: "Makes life so much easier. I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. We used to have a Prepworks chopper which was a similar idea, but you had to press so hard to chop, and it broke after not too long. This one requires very little effort to cut through the food and it has a generous container." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in four styles and four colors).
4. A The Saem hydrating eye stick so that you no longer have to worry about looking like a Tum Burton character after binge-watching a murder mystery docuseries all night. This has a cooling formula to help quickly de-puff the area around your eyes and reduce the appearance of dark circles!
It also can help tighten the appearance of eye wrinkles if you'd prefer for them not to be as noticeable. And here's a tip! It reduces puffiness faster if used after refrigeration.
Promising review: "This is definitely a miracle product. I was impressed that it worked so well, so fast, and so instantly. The packaging is silly but whimsical; I enjoy it. This is the last thing I apply before walking out the door. First day I used it, I put it on and got in my car — I looked in the rear view mirror and my heart jumped. My eyes had de-puffed on my walk down the front path!!! So impressive. It's not hydrating, it’s more tightening/brightening. If you have dry under eyes, use a hydrating eye cream first, and apply this over it — problem solved. You don’t get much product, but you don’t need to use much either, and it’s not like it’s expensive. Definitely worth it if a product actually DOES what it claims it’ll do!!! Buy it!" —Joseph S.
Get it from Amazon for $9.90 (also available as a collagen stick and as a two-pack).
5. And an under-eye brightener that works wonders to balance out the bluish tones of under-eye shadows and dark circles. And bonus! It's infused with hyaluronic acid and shea butter to nourish your skin and give you a radiant glow. Wear it by itself or under your concealer for a more full-coverage look!
Promising review: "I have hollow dark under-eye circles, and concealer never works for me bc it just makes my under eyes dry and doesn’t conceal the darkness. THIS STUFF IS MAGIC. It has a very hydrating formula, and a tiny bit goes a very, very long way. I’m so impressed and incredibly happy with this purchase!" —Val
Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in two shades),
6. Slow-cooker liners if the only thing stopping you from making that delicious chili is the cleanup afterwards. 🫠 With these babies, your cleanup time is reduced to seconds!
Promising review: "I am so happy I decided to purchase these crockpot liners. I love cooking with my slow cooker! Do I love cleaning it afterwards? NO! This is such a simple step to take when cooking. Using this product saves you so much time from not having to clean out the crockpot after. You simply lift out the liner and throw it away when you are done. No fuss no muss! It is so nice to finish your day with a slow-cooked meal and not have to worry about scrubbing it clean. Highly recommend!" —Thomas Casey
Get a box of six liners from Amazon for $3.48 (available in six sizes/quantities).
7. A jar of Fly By Jing Sichuan Chili Crisp for those nights when you get home from work and you're in the mood for a flavorful meal, but you are not in the mood to cook it. No need — just add this tasty condiment to your instant Cup O' Noodles and it'll give it just the right amount of spice, making your quick dinner go from basic to elaborate just like that.
Fly By Jing is an Asian woman-owned small business that makes sauces, seasonings, and dumplings featuring flavors from Sichuan.
Here's what BuzzFeed contributor Brittany Ross says about it: "Ever since my sister introduced me to this life-changing condiment, I've slathered it on pretty much everything I could think of — from roasted vegetables and noodles to seafood and popcorn. It's got a kick, yes, and while I'm a big fan of spicy food, the thing I love most about this chili crisp is that it also has great flavor that doesn't get overpowered by the heat, which happens with so many other spicy sauces. That deep savory flavor comes from ingredients like fermented black bean, shallots, mushroom powder, ginger, and seaweed, so it's no wonder it's become my go-to pantry staple when I want to zhuzh up my dinner in a matter of seconds. PS: Some people even swear by it as an ice cream topping!"
Get it from Amazon for $9.98 (available in three sizes and three flavors).
8. A foaming garbage disposal cleaner to deep clean and deodorize your garbage disposal and pipes that have probably gone a little too long without your attention. 😬 It removes hidden bacteria, leaves a lemon-fresh scent, and can even help extend the life of your disposal!
Promising review: "Saw on TikTok (don’t judge) and automatically added to cart. So easy to use, takes probably a minute to fully bubble up and clean, and you’re left with a clean sink! I use with other drain cleaning products, but would 100% recommend for weekly maintenance." —Jessica House
Get a four-pack from Amazon for $3.78 (available in three quantities).
9. A tub of magical cleaning paste The Pink Stuff, which is bound to earn its own labeled space in your bathroom cabinet. Seriously. The way it effortlessly removes stains, grease, and grime and leaves just about any surface shiny and scratch free should be considered witchcraft.
Promising review: "When I bought my house in 2017, the upstairs bathroom had a shower that was nasty. I thought 'no problem' because I’ll just use elbow grease and clean it up. I scrubbed and scrubbed and scraped and used everything under the sun. NOTHING worked!!! UNTIL...The Pink Stuff. This stuff has done what no other cleaning product, no amount of elbow grease, no amount of cursing, no amount of anything of anything else has ever done. I’m relatively convinced it’s made with tears of the gods or just some magic that I wish I discovered years ago. My tub looks brand-new!!!" —MNee
Get it from Amazon for $5.29 (available in two sizes).
10. A super handy luggage scale — once you have it, you'll never travel without it. Especially if you'll be traveling back with new buys and souvenirs, and you know your luggage will be much heavier on the way back! This lets you know how much it weighs so that you don't have to worry about awkwardly stopping in the middle of a busy airport to re-distribute weight. Plus, reviewers rave about how accurate it is!
Promising reviews: "I would absolutely recommend this for anyone who travels, especially internationally, because of all the extra costs for going over in weight. We were among the few people in line who didn’t need to rearrange our luggage at the airport to meet the weight requirements in Milan. So easy to pack and take with you." —Addison
"This little device was well worth the money spent. It saved us a lot of money on our flight home since we knew the weight was over and could pre-purchase the overage in the app instead of paying double at the airport. I’ll never travel without it!! Very easy to use." —Michael Ellis
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in four colors and also as a two-pack).
11. A set of Bed Bands because having to tuck all four corners of your fitted sheet back into your mattress by yourself is truly a humbling experience. These bands act like suspenders for your mattress so that your fitted sheet finally stops popping off in the middle of the night.
Bed Band is a US-based small business that specializes in bands for mattresses of various sizes.
Promising review: "I have a pillow-top and pillow-bottom queen-sized bed that is a little too small for king sheets, and with queen sheets I have battled to keep the sheets from popping off. I have tried everything! I was about to try to customize some king sheets because it was so frustrating. Then I saw this product advertised on Facebook in one of those posts about the amazing products that people love. So I figured it was worth a try. It works. I was shocked. My sheets have not popped off once. I ordered this in February, and it is May now — and they have not popped off once! They used to pop off EVERY...SINGLE...NIGHT. To say this is life-changing is not an exaggeration. Such a relief to be able to sleep through the night without ending up in rumpled sheets." —TinkerbellAPixie
Get a pack of four from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in standard and extra-long sizes, multiple packs, and in black, white, and pink).
12. A manual "flossing" toothbrush that has thin bristles, which help naturally eliminate the buildup and debris that tend to linger on other toothbrushes. The tip of each of its flossing bristles is as thick as a single human hair and reaches between your teeth and under the gum line to help with cavities and give you a minty clean feel. And if you have sensitive teeth, no worries — reviewers say these bristles are super soft.
Mouthwatchers is a small business established by Ronald Plotka, DDS, that specializes in antimicrobial toothbrushes designed to get deeper cleans even patients with "great" dental hygiene might miss with traditional brush and floss routines.
BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord loves these: "I use an electric toothbrush usually, but I feel like I'm getting a much more satisfying clean from these?? Especially because I tend to get yellow stains between my teeth no matter *how* much I floss, and these bristles seem to actually target that a lot more effectively."
Promising review: "I absolutely love this toothbrush!! TikTok made me buy it and I will never own anything else again. My teeth feel clean all day long like I went to the dentist but better. I even have a sonic toothbrush and this blows it out of the water. Don’t hesitate…buy this for your teeth!" —Amy
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $9.90.
13. Kahi Wrinkle Bounce Hydrating Multi-Balm, aka one of the new beauty products TikTok is currently obsessing over — and for good reason. This multi-talented magic stick works on your face, eyes, lips, *and* neck. It uses collagen and salmon complex to help minimize fine lines, enhance your natural glow, and give a major hydration boost to quench your thirsty skin. I think you just found a new beauty staple to have in your bag at all times.
Check out this TikTok of the balm in action.
Kahi Cosmetics is a Korean skincare brand that was introduced in 2020. Fun fact: this balm has become *super* popular in Korean dramas!
Promising reviews: "Feels and smells good! I use it everyday now. Sometimes, I use it over my tinted sunscreen but I like it under the make-up. It makes my skin look glassy on photos. Does not make my face oily although I have normal to dry skin. Great for summer but also looking forward to using it." —Tessa D.
"Okay! So I was skeptical at first, but honestly, this stick is life changing!!! In a matter of minutes, my skin felt hydrated and plumped. After an hour, still hydrated. No greasy after feeling, very light, and you can feel your skin hydrated and absorbing. I love the fact that you can use it on your eyes, lips, and wrinkles!! Game changer for me, will def try the others!" —Kristy
Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (available in five other formulas).
14. A Revlon hot air brush that'll save you more than double the time it takes you to style your hair with a traditional blowdryer and round brush. This magical tool will give you soft, smooth waves with just a few passes!
Promising review: "I am a licensed cosmetologist of 30+ years and I couldn’t be more pleased! Salon-perfect, shiny, bouncy blow outs! Dries and styles in one or two easy passes ( on damp hair) and provides maximum lift if I style it that way. Easily dries and styles large sections of hair making this THE BEST hairstyling tool! Highly recommend! I use the low setting and cool blast. Surprised and very happy that I don't need med/high settings. Only caveat I have come across so far: the temp/speed setting is in an awkward place to be able to change it while using. Learning curve, I suppose. Otherwise, another GREAT styling tool from Revlon! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️" —ERJ
Get it from Amazon for $33.50+ (available in 11 styles).
15. A microwave rice cooker, because laziness never stopped anyone from being a die-hard rice lover. This'll help you whip up this classic dish staple in no time so that you can use it as a base for a variety of meals!
This is dishwasher-safe!
Promising review: "A dorm room necessity! Makes pretty good rice fast and simple. Way tastier than minute rice, and no hassle of buying an expensive rice cooker or using the stove. Definitely recommend to lazy rice lovers or college kids who barely have time to cook real food." —Cristina L
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
16. A set of oven-safe glass meal prep containers with airtight lids that'll keep your food nice and fresh. The best part? You can cook, reheat, and eat out of 'em without even needing to go fetch a plate.
Promising review: "Perfect for eco-friendly meal prep. I was looking to use less plastic and more glass in my meal storage which is why I ended up buying this set. The glass is thick and really durable, the lids fit snugly and everything is dishwasher safe. I feel better knowing I don't have chemicals leaching into my food. Well-made product." —HoorayForCoffee
Get a set of five from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in three compartment styles and eight quantities).
17. A set of handy DEET-free mosquito-repelling bracelets you and your skin will be ever so thankful for. They use geranium oil, lemongrass oil, and citronella to help keep those pesky biting bugs away. Plus, they make for a cute accessory!
Check out a TikTok of the mosquito-repelling bracelets in action.
Promising review: "I moved last year from Southern California to North Carolina. Bugs of all types have always been attracted to me but the amount of bites I got last summer was WILD. Someone gave me one of these types of bracelets to use one day and it seemed to work SOOOOOO I decided to buy myself an arsenal to prepare for this summer. I read the reviews and about 99% of them had great results. I've only used this bracelet twice but both times I was outside and un-touched. Delivery was very quick so that was a plus. I'm not fond of the smell, I'm hyper sensitive to smells, but I'd rather have the odor than being chewed alive." —Tracey Agopian
Get a 10-pack from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three sizes).
18. A powerful dish-washing spray, aka the true MVP when it comes to anything dishwashing-related. Just spray down that caked up casserole dish, let it sit, and wipe away that greasy mess with more ease than you thought possible. Forget the overnight soak — this bad boy's got your back.
Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly says about it: "I live in an apartment without a dishwasher, and I honestly use that as an excuse to order takeout food instead of cooking. But, as soon as I got my hands on a bottle of this stuff (regular Dawn is my go-to dish soap, BTW), I put it to use on both a saucepan I used to make homemade enchilada sauce *and* the casserole dish I baked those enchiladas, which had a ton of caked-on food. It really does work like I say it does! Like, scary well."
Get one spray and three refills from Amazon for $18.47 (available in three scents).
19. A slim stackable cutlery organizer with a design that lets you de-clutter your kitchen drawers and neatly display all your silverware so you finally know where that spoon went. It has over 72,000 5-star ratings and is especially perfect for small kitchens!
Promising review: "Yes, this little utensil tray is really that good! I went from using 12 inches of horizontal space in a lovely but huge wooden utensil tray to about using about 4 inches (whatever the width of this godsend is). It stores my butter knives, steak knives, spoons, forks, and a slew of little teaspoons. I'd guess that the max capacity for each slot is about 10 pieces. For example, I fit four butter knives and four steak knives into the first/knife slot easily, with good wiggle room. This is such a great design. Using this tray opened up about half of my 18-inch wide drawer, which allowed me to decompress the other drawers in my kitchen a bit. I highly recommend this item. It's worth every penny." —Kathleen Cooke
Get it from Amazon for $10.19 (available in four styles).
20. A Kenra Professional blowout spray that cuts your hair-drying time by as much as HALF, all while acting as a heat protectant and helping to detangle, smooth, and soften your hair.
Promising review: "You need this! Super soft hair and cuts drying time! This stuff is seriously magic. I have thick hair and I hate drying it because it just takes so long. I separate it, pin it up and spray the bottom half and dry and then do the top. It’s perfect! Agree with some of the other folks that said you need to find the perfect amount...too much you could be greasy. But you’ll only do that once. Regardless it smells amazing and your hair will be so soft! Get this!" —Jessica W
Get it from Amazon for $16+ (available in three sizes).
21. Or a well-loved "defunk" spray if you wake up on Monday morning a little tooo tired to wash your hair, but you also don't want to step out with your hair smelling ~funky~. This has a plant extract formula that helps to neutralize odors so you can smell like fresh lavender and chamomile instead.
Uncle Funky's Daughter is a Black woman-owned company that was acquired by Renee Morris in 2014. She has used her own 20+-year natural-hair journey to expand the natural haircare line.
Promising review: "Smells so good and is not overbearing at all. I've tried a lot on my locks and this is the best I've found in five years!" —Loe55
Get it from Amazon for $12.99.
22. A cold brew coffee maker to prep your morning fix the night before and wake up to some freshly made iced coffee ready to give you the energy you need for the day. It's airtight to keep all the delicious flavor in and comes with an ultra-fine mesh filter to keep those pesky coffee grounds out!
This pitcher is BPA-free and dishwasher safe. It also locks in fresh coffee flavors for up to two weeks in the fridge. Just add ground coffee, cold water, refrigerate, and voila! My caffeine obsession will definitely be getting much worse now.
Promising review: "The best cold brew!! It may well be my morning drink for the summer, and I'm an avid hot coffee drinker. I like that it's compact and how all the components fit inside if I decide to store it. It was also very user-friendly and the container has a sleek appearance! It's made of very sturdy plastic material. Very happy that I purchased and I know my daughter is going to enjoy it too! I will say this tho, if you're going to invest time and money on this or any cold brew maker, invest in some decent coffee cause it's a challenge to make it taste good no matter how you brew it." —Denise Hall
Get it from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in three colors and two sizes).
23. And a handheld milk frother if you spend so much money at Starbucks, the baristas are starting to learn your name. 😬 This lets you create your own rich, creamy foam in seconds so that you can enjoy your matcha lattes and other foamy cups of joy from the comfort of your own home (and with probably twice the amount of money in your bank account than usual).
Promising review: "So I’ll admit I got this on a whim after a TikTok video, however I’m in love with this thing! It’s so much fun to use and you make your at home drinks feel so much more special. It’s easy to use and froths pretty quickly if you’re on the fence I’d say 'What are you waiting for?' Buy it already!" —Denise
Get it from Amazon for $5.49+ (available in 21 colors).
24. A low-profile under-the-desk elliptical if you find yourself low on time to get your daily sweat in because... work. 🙃 This lets you get some cardio in without ever leaving your chair. It's also low-impact, which provides some peace of mind for your joints!
It also comes with a digital display that tracks time, speed, and distance, as well as eight different modes of resistance, so you can tailor it exactly to your needs.
Promising review: "Love this! I use it under my desk at the office because I sit most of the day. It just fits and I like the adjustment of tension. Worth every penny!" —Amy K
Get it from Amazon for $107.99+ (available in four colors).
25. An easy-to-clean silicone baking mat for your sheet pan, so you can still whip up a delicious dinner even on those days when you just don't have the time or energy to put in much effort. Just place some veggies and frozen goods on it, drizzle them in olive oil, and throw them in the oven. No grease, cooking sprays, or parchment paper needed!
Promising review: "I use these mats several times a day. They make cleanup super easy, which is really important in my hectic life. They wipe off easily with just water." —Tasia Lung
Get a set of two from Amazon for $12.99.
26. A collapsible car trunk organizer to help keep all your "just in case" thingamabobs nice and organized, instead of letting them bump and thud in your trunk as you rush to work blasting T-Swift. Use it to store many things like water bottles, umbrellas, and extra oil in case your car is running low. (That reminds me, I should go check on that. 🏃♀️)
Promising review: "It was just what I needed for my messy and unorganized truck! I wanted something not too bulky, but just the right size to help me reorganize my trunk. This product did that for me. I was also concerned that it’ll move when I drove but luckily there is Velcro on the bottom that secures it in place while you drive, and sure enough it did just that! This product does not take up a lot of space and gives you the right amount of measure to place other things like groceries and a suitcase. I am completely satisfied and content with this product! I wish I had it all along!" —Neese
Get it from Amazon for $42.55.
27. A stain- and odor-eliminating spray designed to release enzymes that break down odors and lift away stains caused by our furry friends. We love you, Biscuit, but.. our carpet doesn't.
It's made with a natural bio-enzymatic formula, so it's safe for both kids and pets!
Rocco & Roxie is a family-owned small business that offers pet supplies, from cleaners, to treats, grooming tools, toys, and more.
Promising review: "We tried everything trying to get cat urine out of a headboard and corner of the bed. Probably after six or seven different products, found this. Not only does this smell really good...it brought the urine to the outside of the materials to be blotted out and removed. It doesn't just cover up the urine smell. The scent stayed and the urine smell was immediately gone. I would definitely recommend this before anything else as we've spent triple the cost of this for the others to just not work. THIS DOES!" —David J. Rice
Get it from Amazon for $19.31+ (available in two sizes and two scents).

28. A fast-acting ChomChom pet hair remover that picks up all your dog's (and your!) hair as you roll it back and forth across your couch's surface. It's a fan fave and requires no adhesives, sticky tape, or batteries to clean up after your furry family member. Seriously, this deserves ALL the rounds of appaws.
When you’re done, press the button, open the hair trap, empty it out, and it's ready to use again! See it in action on TikTok!
Promising review: "This thing is magic and worth every penny! We have a pit and husky and in the summer our home turns into a hairball all in itself. No vacuum could handle it but this! THIS RIGHT HERE! This thing takes up every last strand of hair and tucks it neatly behind its little door for an easy clean up. I was amazed and appalled at the same time because I had no idea how little our vacuum was actually doing on our couches until I used this!" —MCash
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in two colors).
29. A super absorbent hybrid scrunchie towel, which reviewers are raving about as an alternative to the heat damage caused by drying tools. Plus, it's wayyy better than a heavy towel (especially when you're trying to get ready with wet hair!).
Promising review: "I ordered this because I was sick of keeping a towel on my head for so long while my hair dried, and if I didn't have a towel, my shirt was soaking wet from my hair after a shower. For reference, I had very long, thick hair and it takes a while to air-dry — and I'm so happy I found this scrunchie! It's a lot bigger in person than it looks in the image, which is great because it covers more of your hair to help dry it. No more heavy towels on my head or tight towel wraps." —Meghan
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in three designs).
30. Or a set of genius scrunchies that lets you keep all your small essentials on hand at all times — literally! They have a discreet zipper so that you can stow money, keys, hair clips, etc. Plus, it's so much nicer not having to search through all the stuff in your bag when all you want is some dang lip balm.
Loki Essentials is a small business based in California that sells cute storage scrunchies!
Promising reviews: "I bought this because of someone on TikTok who had purchased this. Extremely convenient and cute! They’re very soft, and I’ve been using mine to hold cash and lip balm. I wish there were more colors!" —Michaela
"I bought these since I was going on a long vacation by myself. I rolled my money and was able to fit it inside the scrunchie. It’s soft, very stretchy and fits my wrist! I didn’t have any issues with the zipper. I wore it on my wrist all the time and put money/lip balm inside it. It worked great during my vacation. This would be perfect to stash some things inside!" —Jessica Sandoval
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $12.99 (available in six color combinations).
31. A reviewer-loved, Shark Tank-featured Click & Carry Grocery Bag Carrier to make carrying the groceries from your car to your front door way less annoying. This helpful little tool lets you hook your bags to it so you can carry up to 80 pounds while comfortably resting the carrier on your shoulder — wayyy better than letting all the bag handles nearly cut all your fingers off because you insist on making it in one trip.
Click & Carry is a Shark Tank and QVC-featured small business.
Promising review: "TikTok made me buy it. This is great when you have a few bags and a box — for example, if you balance the bags, you can throw it over your shoulder and walk inside and have two free hands to carry the box, which is great. Product seems well built, and is comfortable on your shoulder or hand because of the padding." —Hung
Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in seven colors).
32. A NYX instant brow styler for those days when your brows have a mind of their own and refuse to cooperate. Just give your brows a quick flick of this brush to hold them in place for up to 16 hours. Plus, no flakiness or white residue!
NYX is a cruelty-free brand. If you want something that focuses a little more on pigment, this is one of my personal faves too!
Promising review: "I bought this on a whim to try to get my newly curling dark brown brows under control. Many other 'clear' products I’ve tried leave a white residue. I’d been using the brown Patrick Ta Major Brow which works and is fine, but it’s expensive and takes a little longer to prepare and apply. This Nyx product is so fast and easy — swipe and go, leaves virtually no residue, keeps the brows laying straight, and is a fraction of the cost of many Sephora products I’ve tried." —E Morris
Get it from Amazon for $9.97+ (available in five colors).
33. A rapid egg cooker because it might just become the thing that gets you out of bed in the morning. It can make omelets, poached eggs, eggs Benedict, scrambled, soft-, and hard-boiled eggs. (Six at the same time, might I add!) No need to worry about skipping out on breakfast when you've got your own personal little chef right here to whip you up the *perfect* meal.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Emma Lord says, "I've owned one of these babies and have faithfully used it every week for upward of two years, and especially love it while working from home — it simplifies breakfast because I know no matter what assortment of groceries I'm working with, there are precooked eggs to add some protein to it. (I like mine medium-boiled. 🍳) If my dinner is boring or seems like it needs a little extra oomph to it, I'll throw in an egg from this too. Some reviews note that the alarm on it is a little loud, but the new models have significantly decreased the volume and sing a little song instead!"
Promising review: "I saw someone on TikTok with this and gasped! Ordered it right away. I had no idea these things existed. Super easy and convenient and the hard-boiled eggs came out perfectly. I’m testing a batch now without punching a hole in the eggs to see how they come out. Because why not make an easy process even easier?!?! LOL." —Gina
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in six colors).
34. A chic portable canvas cup holder because it'll let you order your fave iced coffee drink without needing to freeze your hands off in the cold weather. This helpful little thing also lets you easily carry your Starbucks with you while you answer work emails and *most importantly* look at the latest TikTok your bestie just sent you.
VIS Paradise Goods is a Florida-based Etsy stop established in 2021 that specializes in personalized and sustainable goods.
Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says about it: "I love it for the convenience of texting on the go! These even have a holder for a straw if you happen to get iced coffee or bubble tea and don't want to stick the straw into the drink just yet. I've found this to be very sturdy and easy to use, plus they're a fun conversation starter — people always want to know where I got it!
Promising review: "This is perfect! I constantly have my hands full and now I can comfortably carry my coffee with me everywhere I go. I will be purchasing more!" —Erin

35. A magnetic air fryer cheat sheet that'll let your inner foodie experiment with different delicious concoctions while giving you the peace of mind that everything will still come out fully cooked and safe to eat.
Promising review: "Bought an air fryer several months ago which I haven't used a whole lot because it came with only a few recipes but not enough info on other items to cook. The Lotteli cheat sheet gives you cooking times and temperatures for a lot of your common everyday foods in a magnetized easy-to-read, two-sheet combo that fills in where the air fryer pamphlet that came with the unit leaves out. I also bought an air fryer cookbook but this only comes with specific recipes, whereas the cheat sheet fills in the void for quick basic needs. Very happy with this purchase! 😁" —B. Frank Smith

36. The Wand because anyone who enjoys an evening glass of red wine will appreciate because it gives you all the flavor *without* that dreaded headache in the morning. All you gotta do is swirl this wand (which contains a histamine and sulfite filter) in your wine for 20 seconds and voila. No more wine hangovers!
Promising review: "OMG!!!! This works. I love wine, but have terrible allergies to the histamines, sulfites, and preservatives in wine. I actually use one wand for two glasses of wine. I was very skeptical, but it works like a dream! Thank you, PureWine. This is really a breakthrough for me." —Penny Froh

37. A pack of dishwasher cleaning tablets you'll appreciate because they power away the limescale and mineral buildup that you can't see in your dishwasher, so you can restore it to its squeaky-clean state and have one less thing on your plate. (Get it?)
It suits all dishwasher machine makes and models. Just pop them into the tray where you'd normally put detergent (or on the bottom of your dishwasher if you're washing dishes at the same time), and run as usual!
Promising review: "This really works great for cleaning dishwashers. Don't tell anyone, but I haven't previously cleaned my dishwasher since we bought it about four years ago. It had a decent amount of funk on it and it started to smell funny. That's why I bought these tablets. I used one — put it in the detergent compartment and turned on the dishwasher on normal setting. After the cycle was done, all the sediment from a few years of use was gone and any unpleasant odor was nonexistent. Zero effort required, easy to use, and worth trying!" —Agy
Get a pack of six tablets from Amazon for $8.99.
38. A bleach-free Lysol automatic toilet bowl cleaner you'll appreciate because it helps prevent toilet rings and keeps your porcelain throne clean after every flush for up to two weeks. Simply place the applicator against the inside of the toilet bowl until the gel is fully dispensed and leave the gel to do the work for you. It'll make those last-minute guests think you just put away the toilet bowl scrubber.
The gel also helps neutralize odors and provide a long-lasting mango and hibiscus scent!
Promising review: "We just moved into our brand-new house and all of the toilets are low water use. I don't know if it's just me, but while these type toilets are cost-efficient, I feel like bathroom smells linger longer with less water. These little things seemed to have solved the problem. There's a fresh smell when approaching the bathrooms now and if it lasts a few weeks then I'll be making a monthly purchase of these!" —MrsHarris

39. Odor-blocking trash bags for those of us who dabble in the art of being lazy and will do anything in our power to prolong taking out the trash. These will keep your kitchen smelling fresh for an extra day or two.
Promising review: "These trash liners are expandable and they don’t puncture easily and they are definitely not see-through so I approve 100%! These fit my 13-gallon trash can in my kitchen and you can over stuffed these babies! They do not rupture or puncture!" —Laurie
Get a box of 80 from Amazon for $17.38 (available in three pack sizes).
40. A standing weeder that'll make you sing, "I think I like this little life," while you do your yard work. This takes all the bending and backbreaking out of the equation when getting all your weeds out. Instead, you can stay standing and let the three steel claws grip the weeds for you as you pull them out!
This is made with a bamboo handle and powder-coated steel. The simple lever system is what makes pulling weeds with this so easy!
Grampa's Weeder is a family-owned small biz that sells tools to make weeding easier!
Promising review: "Oh my god, I friggin' love this tool. I bought this on a whim given we bought our first house and know nothing about caring for a yard. Boy has it come in handy. Our new house had a ton of weeds in the front yard and this tool helped me get most of them out in no time. In fact, the process of yanking out the weeds was strangely satisfying! I don't think anyone can say that weeding is fun but this tool made it as close to fun as you can get, especially when you see a long root along with the weed you pulled." —JG

41. A nonstick microwave pasta cooker so that you don't have to subject yourself to the patience it takes to wait around for water to boil. This cooker will satisfy your spaghetti craving in just 12–13 minutes! You'll be slurpin' up those yummy noodles like you're in Lady and the Tramp in no time.
Promising review: "I don't want to get all gushy over a pasta maker, but man...I really love this gizmo! I like spaghetti — either with normal Prego-type sauce or sometimes just with butter and Romano cheese sprinkled on. But I'm lazy and impatient, and don't like things that take a long time to make, with a bunch of steps, and a big clean up afterwards. The Fasta Pasta is perfect for me. I get the exact amount of correctly-measured spaghetti; it's faster than boiling water in a big pot then having to watch and stir the pasta; the pasta comes out perfectly cooked every time; and the cleanup is a snap." —Smilin Sam
Get it from Amazon for $16.99.
42. A genius microwave- and dishwasher-safe bowl, which comes with a handle, lid, anddd a removable phone stand so that you can enjoy your fave re-watch as you indulge in some ramen, pasta, soup, or cereal. Ahhh yes, peak laziness at its finest.
Promising review: "It's very light, with a huge capacity for soups, salads, mac 'n' cheese, spaghetti, stews, etc. If I didn't have any dishes, this actually would be the only thing I need other than a plate. Love the lid, as you can put it in the microwave, and the top does not blow off. It WILL stain with tomato based sauces. Who cares, as long as I've got my bowl I'm happy! Great for camping as it is virtually weightless. :) It's pretty much indestructible." —Sheryl L. Ketchum
Get it from Amazon for $12.34+ (available in three colors).
43. An undetectable mouse jiggler if you work from home and get the sudden urge to dash out for a snack or walk the dog (priorities, right?). This helpful gadget lets you stay "active" on Gchat, Teams, or Slack in the meantime!
Promising review: "Like everyone else, I stumbled upon this product because of a TikTok I saw. Setup was extremely easy and I'm pleased to say that my Teams green light is on all the time now. Workers of the world, unite." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in seven styles).
44. A sock and underwear organizer so that you can revamp your undergarment storage. This'll let you pick out your socks of the day in a snap (and easily zero in on the pair-less ones!).
They also collapse to store flat when not in use. You get four bins: a six-cell (for scarves, hankies, and ties), an eight-cell (for underwear), a seven-cell (for bras), and a 24-cell (for socks).
Promising review: "I LOVE LOVE LOVE these organizers!! I almost did not purchase them due to the reviews saying that larger than a C-cup would not fit into the bra organizer. At just $15 for four organizers I took my chances and ordered two sets of four. I figured, worst case scenario I would have to cut the dividers out of the bra organizers. I wear a 32DD and the bras fit beautifully in the organizers. I am so glad I took the chance and did not listen to the reviews. I would have missed out on the best cheapest organizers I have ever found. I ordered another set for tank tops and other extras I did not think of before. I will also order my boyfriend the brown ones for his drawers. Great product for a great price!" —Elizabeth L. Blackwell

45. A weekly Wet & Forget shower cleaner that'll rid your shower of soap scum, grime, and body oils while skipping out on all the laborious scrubbing. It also removes stains from non-porous surfaces and leaves behind a soft, delightful vanilla scent. Just spray it on, let it sit overnight, rinse, and you're all set!
Promising review: "We cannot BEGIN to tell you what a lifesaver this is! We have two old fiberglass tubs with vinyl shower enclosures that no matter what amount of scrubbing we have done with everything from bleach to cleanser to vinegar and baking soda would NOT come clean. After I took my shower last night, I sprayed down the tub and walls. Within minutes, all the built-up water deposits and dirt and grime began to melt away in front of my eyes. I left it on overnight, and when I got up this morning, it did not look like the same tub and shower. This product is a godsend, especially for old folks like us who have difficulty getting down on our hands and knees and scrubbing anything. More importantly, it performs as advertised. We plan on using it as part of our weekly cleanup routine, in addition to purchasing the Wet and Forget Mold and Mildew Remover for use on the vinyl siding of our house. This is truly an overnight sensation!" —Amazon Customer

Check out BuzzFeed's full write-up on this spray.
Promising review: "It WORKS!! Since my husband and I moved into our home two years ago, the hard water stains in our shower drove me bananas! I tried everything from bleach to all-natural remedies. Nothing worked. Stumbled upon some before and after photos for this product and had to try. Especially for the price! The photos I posted were with minimal scrubbing. The product does all the hard work!!" —Julie Dufour
Get it from Amazon for $5.97 (available in four sizes).
47. A purse organizer insert — Mary Poppins could've used this. Easily slide it into any bag, whether it's from Prada or Amazon, and it'll give you instant pockets to help you organize your life. And bonus! When it's time to switch out your purse, all you have to do is slide the organizer out and pop it in with all your stuff ready to go.
Bonus: This also stops the inside liner of your purse from getting dirty if anything happens to explode (been there, cleaned the Panera butter packet out of that).
Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this item!!! I love it so much I bought it again, in a different color, for another bag. It keeps your handbag clean, organized and maintains its value!!! They fit perfectly inside all of my bags, and when I want to keep the same color organizer, all I have to do is lift it up and place it in another bag. It already has everything I need and I don’t have to reorganize!!! If you like to keep your handbags clean and organized this is the BEST invention ever!!!" —Jamie R.

48. A portable dual monitor because being productive often means having to multitask. Since this feels nearly impossible with the dozens of tabs you always have open, this lets you see every PowerPoint, spreadsheet, and email laid out in front of you. It's also compact so that you can take it with you from your at-home office to the couch or when working on the go.
This is compatible with Mac, PC, and Chrome laptops between 13 and 17 inches, and attaches with device-safe metal plates. The magnetic pull is strong enough for you to take your laptop from room to room without undoing your setup, but also easy enough to remove that you can tuck everything into a backpack quickly when you're on the move. You can even rotate the display to your preferences if you want it at an angle!
Promising review: "This product is worth the money. Because I'm working from home now, one laptop screen just isn't cutting it. Sure, I can hook my laptop to my TV, but then I'm stuck working in a room that isn't necessarily conducive to being productive. The SideTrak is lightweight, easy to adhere to my MacBook Air (and I didn't have to remove the protective case), and easy to set up. This was a great early Christmas present!' —AJ Jones
Get it from Amazon for $199.99 (available in two colors).
49. A set of toilet fizzing bombs because it'll stop you from dreading cleaning your porcelain throne. Heck, you might even look forward to it with these!

50. A vacuum hose attachment — *many* reviewers say it's helped them pull out whole socks from their lint traps!!! Listen, clogged vents lead to longer drying times, which lead to less time for you to be able to get all your laundry over with so that you can binge-watch your new Netflix obsession in peace.
Promising review: "This thing is seriously amazing. I figured out how to use it very quickly and it worked like a charm. I had a sock stuck wayy down in my vent and would've had no idea! I still can't believe how much lent and dust came out of my dryer. My husband is already talking about other uses for this unique tool, like getting into tight spaces in our cars." —J. Johnson

Check out a TikTok of the Wonder Hangers in action.
Promising review: "These are so clever and versatile! I live in an old house with tiny closets so I have to get creative. These are great because they can be used hanging horizontally or vertically. I also found they work great for hanging camisoles and tank tops. I can see what I have and take just the one I need!" —Therese Van Heuveln

Plus, these are machine-washable and come in so many colors that you don't have to sacrifice your home decor style for function!
Promising review: "I live in an apartment complex full of little goblins people call children. They like to run up and down the sidewalk for no discernible reason yelling at the top of their lungs while their parents watch on in mild amusement drinking wine on their patio. Lovely family time, I guess. So, naturally, I put these on every window I could. And now my evenings are much quieter, without sacrificing the look of my apartment. They’re easy to pull back during the day when the goblins are away and easy to cover when they emerge in the evenings. So I can just cover my windows and put on a movie and it’s like they’re not even there! These block out a lot of light and sound from the neighborhood and match my decor nicely. I put sheer white curtains over these to create a softer look in the bedroom and it’s gorgeous! Saves my sanity and creates a nice atmosphere." —jessie & sky
