41 Products That Do What They Promise For Under $25
Medicube Deep Vitamin C Golden Capsule Face Moisturizer made up of tiny liposome capsules that pop and spread a vitamin C and niacinamide-boosted formula that works to brighten and smooth your complexion. Reviewers said they saw the brightening effects after just a few uses!
An Erase-A-Hole putty to fill in pesky cracks in drywall, plaster, and wood so you can actually get that security deposit back, no matter how many holes you put into the wall.
An airtight Deli ProKeeper people on FridgeTok (yes, real thing) are raving about. It offers a sleek-looking place for your cold cuts and cheese, keeping it fresh for longer so you can actually eat all of it. If you've ever lamented seeing condensation-soaked ham in your deli drawer, this one is for you.
And a Bluapple that extends the life of your produce without any extra work from you. Just toss it into your fridge or fruit bowl, and the packet inside will absorb ethylene gas (the main culprit behind mushy apples and overripe bananas). Produce could last two or three times longer, and you'll finally get to eat everything you buy.
L'Oréal Paris Collagen Daily Face Moisturizer who has been clearly cheating off Charlotte Tilbury's test paper. Like the Magic Cream, this cheaper alternative absorbs quickly and seals in moisture for smoother, plumper skin.
A lawn dog spot repair treatment to make your crispy, brown lawn look like it belongs in front of a house in Emerald City. Reviewers say they noticed results almost immediately — as in *days*!
A FlexiSnake with teeny-tiny hooks that latch onto hair, soap scum, and grime and a rotating handle that gives you 360-degree access to your gunked up drain. Just insert, spin, and pull up whatever hairy monster is lurking down there. Wizards don't have to call plumbers, and neither should you!
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.
A pair of charcoal shoe deodorizers to help you reclaim your sneakers from the dreaded Stink. Just slip the cloth tubes into your shoes and let them save you from buying a new pair of shoes. To "recharge," leave them in the sun.

The foam makes it super easy to distribute throughout your hair, and the heavenly scent will make you feel like you're on a tropical vacation. 44,000 customers have given this budget-friendly find a thumbs up!
A toothbrush sporting two layers of bristles so even floss haters can feel like they just received a professional cleaning. The longer bristles get deep in between your teeth to push out any lingering bits of food. (How long ago did you eat lettuce???) These are great for sensitive teeth but can also be used to clean grout and other small areas of your home in need of a refresh.
A beeswax wood polish and conditioner for giving your furniture an impossibly lustrous shine previously never seen in your home. The conditioning oils will revitalize thirsty wood and prevent it from drying out or fading. Guests will be like, "Did you get a new table?"
A catnip wall mount with four different-flavored balls so your kitty can perform a taste test and decide their favorite. It's basically a bourbon flight for cats — that's so cool! They'll be too preoccupied sampling the goods to scream at you for treats for at least a solid 15 minutes (a century in hungry cat time). Reviewers confirm it sticks to the wall as expected, and their cats love it.
Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel, in case you've always wanted to not only drink the energizing tea, but also wear it. This cult-fave can help quickly minimize eye puffiness and swelling using its combination of caffeine and hyaluronic acid. All for less than the price of a six-pack of White Label!
A pack of affordable carborundum sponges — YES, the stuff they make bulletproof vest plates out of — because tough jobs require tough solutions. Just dip one of these in water and start scouring — the nano-particles will get to work scraping off ancient stains in your kitchen, garage, or outdoors.
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 crack weeder tool if your home looks like it's trying out to star in the next season of The Last of Us. The stainless steel, L-shaped head can sneak into tight spaces and tear out the weeds, moss, and stubborn roots that have rudely taken up residence in your sidewalk.
A pet brush with thin, long teeth capable of getting to the undercoat. A good brushing means a silkier coat — and best of all, less shedding.
E.l.f Lash XTNDR Tubing Mascara, which creates tubing around your lashes to make them appear longer, thicker, and darker. The lightweight "extensions" won't smudge or weigh down your actual lashes and — best of all — they fall right off when you wash your face. No one likes having to scrub their eyes raw trying to get off waterproof makeup. :(
A Pikk-it tool offering a quick solution to one of life's little miseries: wondering why your vacuum isn't sucking (in a good way) and discovering that the brush is completely cocooned in loose hair. This handy tool will free your roller from its hairy prison so it can proceed with...picking up more hair. Sorry, "vacuum doesn't work" isn't an excuse to avoid cleaning anymore!
A Medix retinol body lotion because if retinol works so well for your face, it's gotta do wonders for the rest of your body too. With the help of ferulic acid, it encourages skin cell turnover to help tighten and firm skin. One 5-star reviewer (out of 4,700+) says they're obsessed with Medix's whole line of lotions.
Or 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 pack of Miracle-Gro water storing crystals that'll prevent both under- *and* over-watering, which I believe are the top two killers of plants. When you water your houseplants, the crystals retain the moisture and release it as the soil dries.
L'Oréal Paris BB Cream, a green-tinted formula that combats redness through the power of color theory. It doesn't stop there — it also works to even complexion, hydrate with vitamin E, and set the perfect stage for you to apply your makeup on. Turns out you don't have to drop $50+ on Dr Jart+'s Cicapair Color Correcting Cream!
An ultra-affordable E.l.f. color corrector that comes in a ton of shades to help counteract different types of discoloration, like redness and dark spots. Mix and match to create the perfect foundation for the rest of your makeup routine.
A box of Color Catcher sheets to prevent the dreaded "all my clothes are now pink from this one stray red sock" debacle. These handy sheets are designed to grab any dye that leaks or bleeds so you can keep enjoying your white tees even if you can't be bothered to sort clothes into lights and darks.
A heat-activated anti-frizz treatment sure to be a total game changer for people who straighten or blow dry their hair straight only for it to go *poof* when they step outside. This humidity-fighting formula "waterproofs" your hair to help protect it from 'do-ruining weather.
A pack of handy snaps you can iron onto your bedding to ease a little of the agony that is making your bed. Use 'em to keep your comforter firmly in place for a tidier appearance OR your duvet cover and sheets together so making the bed is...wait for it...A SNAP! A certain luxury bedding brand used to charge top dollar for this feature...
Mosquito Dunks to kill mosquitoes before they're even big enough to bite you. We're playing 4D chess against pests this summer! The lil' doughnuts are made with a bacteria that's only toxic to mosquito larvae, so you don't have to worry about pets or wildlife.
A Burt's Bees sunburn soother crafted with aloe and coconut oil to hydrate skin and turn back time to before you stayed out in the sun a little too long. It's nongreasy and absorbs quickly, so you can go from "AHHH" to ahhhh.
Washable bra liners to absorb under-boob sweat before it has a chance to bleed through your shirt. Reviewers note that it does the impossible and actually makes wearing a wire bra more tolerable!
A No Pore Blem primer that works like the Photoshop smudge tool, but IRL. The lightweight formula is made with collagen and green tea extract and helps blur the appearance of fine lines and pores, giving you that "no makeup makeup" look.
A pack of paw protection cream with vitamin E to keep paw pads nice and soft. Most dogs hate shoes, so this helps keep their tootsies safer from the elements (salt and ice in the winter and hot sidewalks in the summer).
A butter container that helpfully slices two sticks as you insert them. Speaking as someone who is sick of seeing a half stick of ragged, loosely-wrapped butter in the fridge, this is a need — not a want!
A reviewer-loved scar gel made with panthenol to encourage skin regeneration and allantoin to moisturize and help speed up the healing process. The formula even works on older scars and can also be used to soothe burns, sunburns, and tattoos.
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.
Veet sensitive hair removal gel kindly providing a soothing, gentle alternative to razors or waxing. The aloe-infused formula works in under 10 minutes (!!!) by dissolving hair on your legs, arms, back, and bikini area. It's designed to be more efficient and reduce the risk of in-grown hairs — imagine a world without those annoying bumps!
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!

If You Think Real Beauty Results Only Happen When You Spend Tons Of Money, These 39 Items Are Here To Prove You Wrong
A Physicians Formula Butter Glow & Go Stick offering a luxuriously creamy, easy-to-apply formula that glides on skin to give you that "just returned from a week-long tropical vacation" glow. The double-ended applicator comes with two colors that can be used as contour, bronzer, blush, eyeshadow, and lip color. So many uses and for so little money, despite being comparable to the $46 Charlotte Tilbury Beach Stick. Monday Haircare Dry Shampoo that works just as well as more expensive competitors to absorb oil and add volume, with the added bonus of keratin to strengthen and protect against humidity. Oh, and the floral scent is definitely a compliment magnet! Amazing they don't charge more for all these benefits... La Roche-Posay Effaclar gel made with adapalene, an over-the-counter retinoid that can help minimize the appearance of pores, attack blackheads and whiteheads, and regulate skin cell turnover. Clear skin is possible, even without a pricey prescription — just check out this review pic! L'Oréal Paris BB Cream, a green-tinted formula that combats redness through the power of color theory. It doesn't stop there — it also works to even complexion, hydrate with vitamin E, and set the perfect stage for you to apply your makeup on. Turns out you don't have to drop $50+ on Dr Jart+'s Cicapair Color Correcting Cream! An ultra-affordable E.l.f. color corrector that comes in a ton of shades to help counteract different types of discoloration, like redness and dark spots. Mix and match to create the perfect foundation for the rest of your makeup routine. 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. One reviewer found success with this when expensive neck creams from department stores and Sephora fell flat. Hawaiian Tropic's SPF 30 Mineral Powder Sunscreen Brush offering some light coverage (and extra sun protection on top of your normal sunscreen) that won't weigh you down on hot days. Most intriguing: Reviewers are using this on their scalp and hairline because YES scalp burns can happen and NO we're not putting goopy sunscreen in our hair. It's also wayyy cheaper than the $69 Colorescience version. Jergens Natural Glow tanning lotion — a classic because it gives you a gradual, just-got-back-from-vacation glow after just a few uses. It's easier to use than more expensive brands that risk getting streaky *and* it's formulated with elastin to help your skin feel firmer. E.l.f.'s Hydrating Core Lip Shine in the "Ecstatic" shade, which reviewers say works as a very good, affordable replacement for Clinique's "Black Honey," the $25 "universal shade" that has a Shakira-level of fame and adoration. This $7 alternative is nonsticky, moisturizes with vitamin E, and melts onto your lips like buttah. A Revlon volcanic face roller way easier to use than those disposable blotting pads. You just roll the volcanic stone over any oily or greasy areas on your face and then pop it in your bag for later. A portable spa treatment if you think about it. Gold Bond's firming neck and chest cream to pamper your décolletage with some special skincare attention. The glycerin and aloe hydrate while the salicylic acid gently exfoliates, leaving firmer, softer skin. After seeing these impressive results, I have to thank Gold Bond for not charging double. An SPF 50 Airy Sunstick Smoothing Bar that works like a giant lip balm for your face. It's nonsticky, glides on clear, works nicely as a primer, and is so easy to apply (check out the curved shape), you may actually remember to reapply for once. Plus, it's cheaper than the Supergoop version. A Wet n Wild lipstick formulated with vitamins A and E and macadamia for silky smooth color. Reviewers are shocked at the quality considering the price: a single dollar. Nothing at the dollar store even costs that little! Some reviewers have even compared it to MAC. 👀 L'Oreal Paris Bright Reveal — a new dark spot correcting rinse-off treatment that aims to be like a professional peel in a bottle. The blue gel uses 25% AHA, BHA, and PHA to chemically exfoliate and help reveal brighter, smoother skin. Expect compliments with words like glowing, radiant, and wellness influencer. A Curél moisture spray when you want to boost your routine with a hit of ceramides — a key ingredient for helping your skin's moisture barrier. Spritz it on your face, body, or over makeup for a hydrating refresh. Despite the chichi packaging, you're more likely to find this affordable gem at your local drugstore than at a department store. Garnier SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water, which has a place in an astounding amount of medicine cabinets (56,000+ positive ratings on Amazon!) because it gently (but effectively!) removes dirt, excess oil, and even waterproof makeup without drying out your skin and hurting your budget. You don't even need to rinse with water — just apply and wipe off. A Vanicream cleanser for when you just want something super gentle, simple, and effective. It costs less than $10 and, without any fanfare, cleanses and removes makeup. It's a great option for sensitive skin — no drying or irritation here. I have since sworn off fancy cleansers because this does the job better than anything else! A beloved Maybelline "Fit Me" matte foundation that has over 40 shades so you're sure to find the perfect match. This oil-free, breathable, lightweight formula gives you buildable coverage and a fancy matte finish you normally don't get outside of Sephora. Or TirTir cushion foundation promising up to 72 hours of buildable coverage to help hide redness, blemishes, dark circles, and other unwanted discoloration. The oval-shaped puff makes it easy to get this heavenly product in every nook and cranny for a seamless satin finish. As a bonus, it's made with red propolis extracts that have antimicrobial properties. Reviewers are saying this a great swap for Dior! Ogx Argan Oil of Morocco Curl-Defining Cream for curls so bouncy you'll be jumping for joy (and to show them off). The argan oil-boosted formula moisturizes and tames frizz while adding a level of volume and shine you'd normally expect from a much higher price point. Or Lottabody Wrap Me Curl Mousse, a whipped-cream-like delight that defines curls, moisturizes with shea and coconut oil, and tackles frizz all for UNDER $5. The foam makes it super easy to distribute throughout your hair, and the heavenly scent will make you feel like you're on a tropical vacation. 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! L.A. Colors metallic nail polish that somehow costs less than $2, yet still provides a striking shine you normally have to pay 5–10 times the amount to achieve. At that price point, I'm shocked it works at all, let alone WELL! Peach Slices nose pore patches offering an overnight solution for stubborn open pimples. Just wash your face, exfoliate, and pop one on before bed. The hydrocolloid bandage will soak up gunk from your pores without drying your skin. Normally, you'd have to book a facial for these kinds of results! 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. Or E.l.f Lash Xtndr Tubing Mascara, which creates tubing around your lashes to make them appear longer, thicker, and darker. The lightweight "extensions" won't smudge or weigh down your actual lashes and — best of all — they fall right off when you wash your face. Priceless! An Elizavecca collagen coating hair protein treatment that takes your dry, tired hair and turns it into the silky-soft locks you've always wanted. Just apply it to wet hair after shampooing, wait five minutes, rinse, and wonder why other, pricier hair treatments (like Olaplex!) don't work this well. 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. L'Oreal Lumi Glotion that's a lotion, glowy foundation base, and highlighter all in one bottle. Over 30,000 5-star happy customers love how effective this vacation-in-a-bottle is, despite the low price. Some reviewers even compare it to the pricey Drunk Elephant Sunshine Drops! A high shine lip gloss from L.A. Colors providing a splashy shine so bright, you might blind people with your smile. The luxurious, vanilla-scented color has shea butter for moisture, isn't sticky, and costs less than a cup of coffee (even a cheap one from the corner store)! Nyx's Pore Filler Targeted Stick that's basically Photoshop's blurring tool, but IRL. Apply it like a giant tube of face lip balm to help smooth and reduce the appearance of pores. It's under $8, which is certainly less than an Adobe subscription. Mielle's Rosemary Mint strengthening oil, a TikTok-hall-of-famer that almost 80,000 5-star reviews confirm is worth the hype. The biotin-infused serum can help strengthen hair and encourage new growth, leaving hair feeling healthier and fuller. Reviewers say it's helped with everything from receding hairlines to sparse eyebrows — who knew something so effective was just sitting on a drugstore shelf this whole time? An E.l.f. hydrating grip primer that reviewers say is a comparable swap for Milk's Hydro Grip primer. The cooling gel uses hyaluronic acid to help hydrate and smooth your face and clings to makeup so you can enjoy full coverage all day long. L'Oréal Paris Collagen Daily Face Moisturizer who has been clearly cheating off Charlotte Tilbury's test paper. Like the Magic Cream, this cheaper alternative absorbs quickly and seals in moisture for smoother, plumper skin. A Nyx liquid eyeliner, with a precision tip and long-lasting, ultra-pigmented color, capable of serving just as dramatic looks as Kat Von D or Stila, at less than HALF the price. L'Oréal Paris Elvive 8 Second Wonder Water bringing you silkier hair in just eight seconds. On top of a wave of hydration, it also adds shine and decreases frizz and static. Reviewers note it's a close match to a certain Redken product, but for way cheaper. "Glow Up!" Vitamin C Face Serum powerful enough to help reduce dark spots, brighten skin, and give you an overall glowy makeover. Despite having superstar ingredients like 3-O ethyl ascorbic acid for radiance and hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, and vitamin E for supreme hydration, this miracle formula costs less than $10. STEP AWAY from the C-Firma. Catrice "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener to expertly conceal and brighten dark circles under your eyes just as well as the $33 Becca version. The lightweight, color-adapting formula is designed to blend seamlessly — check the drastic difference in the review photo! An under-$10 Mielle rosemary mint strengthening edge gel you can count on to keep your hairstyle in place *without* flakiness. The formula is enriched with biotin, coconut oil, and babassu oil to help prevent breakage, hydrate, and add shine.

17 Genius Products That Solve Gross Baby Problems
A Frida Baby The 3-Step Cradle Cap System that'll remove dry skin from baby's scalp so gently they won't even notice — it comes with a sponge, a brush, and a comb that'll all work together to get your kiddo's scalp looking good. A Frida Baby Saline Kit complete with a nose sucker, saline nasal spray, and hygiene filters to essentially load you up with everything you'd possibly need to *gags* suck the snot out of your baby's nose and help them breathe happily again. I honestly can't even think or speak about this gadget without feeling queasy — but it WORKS. Or, if you're nauseated by the idea of sucking snot out of someone's nose with your own mouth, a Grownsy automatic nasal aspirator that'll do all the heavy (and gnarly) lifting for ya! It has music and lights built-in to try and distract your tyke while you *get down to business.* And a light-up nasal bulb designed to look like a narwhal that'll make a yucky task into one that's, dare I say, kind of cute??? The built-in light will distract and delight your baby while *also* making it easier to extract snot during the night when their congestion is keeping you both from sleeping. Boogie Wipes, which are packed with saline, aloe, and Vitamin E, and will help gently remove crusty boogers while your tot fights you tooth and nail to get away and get back to planning your demise via Lego bricks. Miss Mouth's Messy Eater Stain Treater Spray you'll be very glad you bought after your baby has their first eyebrow-raising, gag-worthy blowout in an outfit they've only worn for a few minutes. Reviewers say it works on pee, blood, and vomit (basically, it's got your back). A Frida Baby Windi Gas Passer to help relieve little ones of gas pain and constipation — it doesn't get much grosser than this, my friends. Prepare for a lot of toots and poops to come your way after you insert this tool. An Oogiebear tool that's confusingly kinda cute even though its purpose is *a bit* gross — to remove earwax and boogers safely from your little one. Does my daughter fight us like she's starring in Gladiator when we try to use this on her? Yes. But does it get the job done faster and more easily? Also, yes! A baby butt spatula you'll either laugh or cringe at but will thank your lucky stars that you thought to purchase it when you see how much nicer it is to apply diaper cream to your baby's booty with it instead of your finger. It has incredible suction on the bottom, so you can keep it right next to your changing pad without fear of it being kicked over by your unruly tot. A Frida Baby Rectal Thermometer with a built-in stopper that'll keep the tip from being inserted too far (yikes). It'll give you an accurate reading within 10 seconds and is water resistant for easy washing. It can also be used to help *move things along* when your baby is constipated. (You're welcome, I think?) Puracy enzyme-based spot cleaner that'll have your little one's clothes looking like you just pulled them off the rack in a store instead of out from under a car tire. A 10-pack of muslin burp cloths, a must-have for anyone with an infant who is spitting up constantly or a toddler who is forever suffering from a runny nose. These are no doubt a key item for any parent with a kiddo under the age of two — you might as well go ahead and order two sets. A game-changing diaper rash spray that'll make diaper changes a lot more simple — and you won't have to get any gunky paste under your nails. A shopping cart cover to create a barrier between your kiddo and all of the unseen germs lurking around — certainly can't hurt and will also prevent them from, literally, sucking on the cart itself (babies are wild). Car Guys upholstery cleaner for when your baby makes a mess you didn't even know they were capable of — we're talkin' spit up, drool, pee, poop explosions, etc. All of those things are no match for this cleaning product. Bumkins washable bibs that'll turn mealtime into a fashion show (hehe) while also protecting your little one's clothes from all kinds of gross baby food stains. Pop culture fans, look no further! These come in so many fun styles you won't know which ones to order first. Plus a Bumkins splat mat to place under your tyke's highchair to catch all of the debris that seems to just fall from the sky whenever they're (fingers crossed) eating a meal. Splattered marinara all over the floor? No problem if you've got one of these bad boys around to catch it!
