39 Things That Reviewers Say They Would Absolutely Recommend

Buzz Feed13 hours ago
A lightweight gel cream from Nivea with powerful Q10 that helps plump, firm, and moisturize skin in as little as two weeks with consistent use. Over 1,400 reviewers are happy with their results!
A high-end bottle of Takesan Kishibori soy sauce if you ever want to learn what you're missing by sticking with grocery store brands. No offense to Kikkoman, but this elevated sauce from Shodoshima, Japan offers a richer, more complex flavor that has happy reviewers pledging their allegiance.
A Tibet Almond scratch remover stick that you can apply like ChapStick for your furniture. The colorless balm can help hide light scratches, watermarks, and water stains from wood, bamboo, glass, and more. Just open the can, remove the wrapper, and start rubbing the stick on unsightly marks.
A pack of cold sore healing patches to zap painful blisters in record time. The hydrocolloid bandages keep the environment moist to speed up healing and prevent scabbing. They protect, conceal, and can lower the chance of you touching it and potentially giving yourself even more cold sores. 🤦‍♀️
A Bosu balance trainer ball that aims to make exercise fun — or at least not jaw-breakingly yawn inducing. It'll help you work on your strength, balance, and endurance while you watch TV, listen to a juicy podcast, or spy through the blinds at your suspicious neighbors, Rear Window style.
All-in-one decor paint for an Extreme Makeover: Home Edition-worthy transformation. The chalk-like paint comes with a built-in primer to help it cling to most surfaces, from upholstery and wood to metal and glass. With over 50 colors to choose from, this paint can help you revitalize every room in the house. Aaand it dries in just 30 minutes!
Eos' Cashmere Skin Collection Shave Oil — a new iteration of the TikTok-famous Eos "cashmere" body lotion — that uses the same swoon-worthy scent of whipped vanilla, musk, and soft caramel. Use this scrumptious oil to protect your skin from any razor mishaps; reviewers love that it helps them avoid razor burn and get an extra close shave.
An NSF-certified shower filter capable of removing chlorine, PFAS, and other particles, making it a solid choice for people with hard water. Reviewers say it does wonders for their skin, their hair feels softer, and that they love being able to actually see the filter working.
Burn After Writing — a guided journal with questions and thought experiments that encourage readers to reflect, explore their feelings, and get to know themselves a little deeper. The first step to bettering yourself is knowing where to start, after all.
A viral "Soft" perfume rollerball for anyone who wants people to think of them and think "yum." Reviewers compare this ~$5 fragrance to caramel, lemon cupcakes, warm vanilla scones, cotton candy, and this $65 bottle of Pink Sugar!
White caulk tape if you've noticed (and proceeded to ignore) some cracks in your previous caulk job. Use the waterproof sealing tape to fill in gaps before they get any worse and unwanted guests see the bug equivalent of a vacancy sign. Reviewers say this is easier and cleaner looking than liquid caulk, so there's no excuse to keep putting this off!
An L-shaped body pillow that leaves other similarly-shaped pillows in the dust thanks to its cushy memory foam, super soft cover, and generous size. It's perfect for pregnant people, side sleepers, or anyone who just loves to cuddle.
A jar of O'Keeffe's Working Hands cream with beeswax and glycerin to give you the baby soft hands you haven't seen since you were, well, a baby. Apply some after every hand washing, and you may never see a dry patch again.
A powerful callus remover in case your heels are looking a little too much like a desert. Just marinate your feet in the gel for 5–10 minutes, then follow up with a foot rasp. The smooth result will make even babies jealous.
Bio-Oil made with vitamin E, chamomile, and lavender oil to moisturize your face and body and help improve the appearance of scars, stretch marks, dark spots, and more. One reviewer loves using it in place of a pricey serum!
A pair of Cushionaire cork-bottom sandals that are not only supremely comfortable, they're also an affordable alternative to Mayari Birks. The similarities go past just looks: They also have 100% genuine suede soles, so your feet will demand you wear these every single day.
Juno & Co.'s Clean 10 Cleansing Balm made with a blend of pearl barley and vitamin E to completely obliterate every speck of makeup on your face. Seriously, you'll feel so fresh and baby-faced, you'll wonder if that eyeliner was really as smudge-proof as you previously thought.
A tube of Roc retinol night cream possibly imbued with time traveler magic, because it will feel like you're turning back the hands of time when you go to sleep each night. OK, maybe it won't be that dramatic, but the shea butter and squalane will hydrate, and the retinol will work hard to smooth and possibly reverse some signs of aging. This reviewer says it's a great alternative to prescription retinol.
An oversized Turkish blanket that will make picnics, beach trips, and general snuggling all the better.
Turkish Dowry is a small business that sells Turkish towels and blankets.Promising review: "I purchased the Turkish blanket in gray. It washed up beautifully. It is soft and very cozy!

A cruelty-free Essence Lash Princess lengthening mascara that's lightweight, won't transfer, doesn't smudge, and lasts all day — oh and makes your eyelashes look like tall, beautiful skyscrapers. Why Essence only charges $5 for such an S-tier mascara is beyond me, but we're all grateful.
Banzai Bump N' Bounce Body Bumpers to turn your children into human bumper cars. Children ages 4–12 will have a blast running full speed into each other — and you'll have a blast filming it for the family group chat.
A pack of anti-slip glasses sleeves, because pushing your glasses back up your nose stops being cute after the millionth time you have to do it. The soft silicone is so comfortable, one reviewer called it an "ear saver."

Bar Keepers Friend powder cleanser to arm yourself with when tackling the toughest of stains. It'll be like you bought a brand new set of pots and pans.
Promising review: "This stuff works so well, you'll feel like you're in a staged infomercial where your surfaces are left gleaming and impossibly new.

And a mystery pack of stickers for scrapbookers or collectors looking to spin the wheel of destiny. Hopefully, Lady Luck is on your side and you get the one of the cute cat on the bike.

‘Love Island USA's Austin Shepard Issues Apology

Let's face it: As far as reality TV seasons go, Love Island USA season 7 is kind of a mess. So it shouldn't come as shock to hear that, since leaving the Villa, Austin Shepard has apologized for his offensive social media posts. But what exactly is he apologizing for, and are fans buying it? Here's what you need to know. Austin has been a controversial Love Island USA contestant since day one, after fans found his social media accounts and noticed some—shall we say—objectionable content. His TikTok, @sidestrokeshep, features reposts of many pro-Trump videos, and one video condoning police violence on peaceful protests. Though Austin hasn't apologized for any specific post, he did issue a blanket statement over the weekend following his dumping from the Villa. 'I want to take a moment to address my recent repost that has caused offense to some of you,' he wrote in a statement shared to his Instagram Stories on Saturday, July 4. 'As you all know, I have a very dry sense of humor, and I genuinely didn't think before sharing that content. It was never my intention to hurt or upset anyone.' He continued, 'I value and respect all individuals and their perspectives. I recognize that my choice of content did not resonate well with everyone, and for that, I sincerely apologize.' He added that he would be 'more mindful in the future.' If it sounds vague, that's because it is. Even fans can't agree on what Austin is even apologizing for. Some believe it's for his TikTok reposts, but others think it was in response to the negative reaction to Austin's Instagram Q&A, in which he answered one fan's question about being 'a racist bigot in the villa.' Speaking directly to camera, he denied the accusation, calling it 'crazy' and insisted that whoever wrote in the question must be 'dumb' because 'I have a Black woman tattooed on my side.' So to recap: Since Austin has returned from the Villa, he has insisted that he can't be racist because of a tattoo and issued a blanket apology that doesn't acknowledge any wrongdoing. Add that to his treatment of our beloved Amaya Papaya (real name: Amaya Espinal), and I'm sorry to say, Austin, you are not beating those Love Island USA villain accusations.

'And Just like That' fans spot major Season 3 plot hole

"And Just Like That" may be forgetting its own characters' backstories. The "Sex and the City" revival, which sees three of four leading ladies reprising their iconic roles, has been on thin ice with its audience since its debut season, drawing criticism from haphazard plot lines and even more haphazard headwear (we're looking at you, Carrie). The discontent flared once again this week when eagle-eyed fans noticed a plot hole involving friend to the main cast Lisa Todd Wexley (Nicole Ari Parker). In an episode airing July 3, Wexley calls Charlotte (Kristin Davis) to inform her that her father has just died suddenly from a stroke. Sarah Jessica Parker tells us about her head-turning 'cloud hat' in 'And Just Like That' Fans were quick to point out, however, that during Season 1, Parker's character revealed that her father had died the previous year. Stitching together the clips on social media to point out the recycled plotline, viewers voiced disbelief, with one social media user writing: "Has 'And Just Like That' completely forgot they killed Lisa's dad off already?" 'And Just Like That...' is still shallow (and just plain silly) in Season 3: Review To add insult to injury, fans also noted that after announcing his death in Season 1, the show seemingly ignored the fact to bring him on as a guest star (played by Billy Dee Williams) for an episode in Season 2, only to kill him off again in Season 3. "Don't forget he was already passed in season 1, and came for dinner in season 2, now he is gone again… not everyone gets that kind of second chance," one user quipped on TikTok. 'And Just Like That' star Cynthia Nixon spills about Rosie O'Donnell's sex-starved nun "Carrie will be having dinner with Big next episode," another wrote, referencing Mr. Big, Carrie's one-time love interest who was killed off during the first season. Chris Noth, the actor playing him, was accused of sexual assault around the time the onscreen death occured. The cast, however, is mourning Lisa's father's death (the second one) for real. "I grew up (watching) Billy Dee Williams, so I was very sad in real life that we wouldn't do any more work together in this series," Sarah Jessica Parker told USA TODAY in a recent interview.

Want a taste of Italy on Lincoln Road? See what's new at the South Beach mall

A taste of Italy has moved to Lincoln Road Mall. The eight block stretch of shops and restaurants, a pedestrian mall destination since the early-1960s, has brought in some new businesses. What's new? A Florentine eatery that's gone viral with TikTok videos gushing about 'the most famous sandwich shop in all of Italy,' a Sicily-inspired gelato brand, and an Italian-inspired women's wear brand making its move across the causeway from Miami's Brickell to South Beach. A breakdown of what's new on Lincoln Road Mall Here are the newcomers: ▪ All'Antico Vinaio has quite the social media following, with millions of views for videos touting the original Florentine sandwich shop in Italy. 'If Julius Caesar was reincarnated he'd go to All'Antico his first stop,' a TikTokker named Jacks Dining Room posted a couple of years ago as he was mid-bite into a crusty two-hander, olive-oil painted prosciutto sandwich. All'Antico Vinaio opens its first Florida shop in a 1,793-square-foot space at 647 Lincoln Road touting Tuscan schiacciata sandwiches. A 2025 opening date hasn't been announced yet. ▪ DaVinci Gelato is a boutique gelato brand from the makers of New York's L'Arte del Gelato. DaVinci is now open in a 1,350-square-foot space at 645 Lincoln Road. ▪ Ché by Chelsey has relocated from the growing Brickell City Centre to 830 Lincoln Road. The Italian-inspired and Los Angeles-designed womenswear brand opened a 675-square-foot store.
