I just ordered another one because I'm low on mine. I use it every night and hour before clocking in at work and even forget how my feet used to hur t until I get home and I'm like 'wait a second, my feet didn't hurt.'

3. An airtight Deli ProKeeper so beloved that it's gone viral on FridgeTok (if you know, you KNOW). Not only does this free up space and clutter in the fridge, but it keeps deli meat and cheese so fresh that you'll actually get your darn money's worth by preventing waste.
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I bought this because I have the outlandish idea that my refrigerator will look just like those on TikTok, but I am pleasantly surprised to find that it keeps my cold cuts fresher for much longer than expected. It's large enough to hold a pound or more of cold cuts or cheese, which is a bonus. The sealing technology is superb and strong. At one point, I almost could not open the container due to the seal being so airtight. Not only does this product look good in my fridge, but it is saving me money, so definitely a win-win for me." — IrishEyes

Promising review:"I've never been a journal or diary person, but needed an outlet for my anxiety and stress. Each day has the same two-page spread that prompts you to think about your day, how you felt, and why you felt that way. There isn't really any inspiration or advice, just open lines for your thoughts without it being an intimidating blank page. This journal has already helped me see patterns in my thoughts/emotions and I feel better overall. I would recommend this journal to anyone." — Kari Madsen

www.amazon.com, Amazon
Joesoef Skin Care is a small business that specializes in anti-acne skincare products.
Promising review:"I recently saw a dermatologist talk about those clogged pores on and around your nose. If they are of uniform size, they aren't blackheads. She suggested using a sulfur soap to get rid of or minimize those stubborn clogged pores. This has a slight sulfur smell, it is not overwhelming, and it disappears when dried. It works! My pores are much smaller. After applying and drying, moisturize." — Sandy G

Check out a TikTok of the foot masks in action.
I'm a long-ish distance runner, and these were certainly an interesting experience for my feet! You slide them on and, after a few minutes, feel a tingling, mildly burning (in a good way) sensation. It doesn't quite numb your feet, but it relaxes them. I kept them on for 30 minutes and then toweled my feet off, and the tingling sensation slowly faded over the next 30 minutes. After that my feet felt very refreshed and relaxed at a time of day when they're usually aching from all the miles I put in. The whole thing was a mess-free, easy process, and I will definitely keep them on hand for longer run days!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Teeccino is a small business that specializes in coffee-like herbal teas
I love tea in the morning but I always want something that tastes strong and bitter to go with my dessert at night, but decaf coffee felt too risky, since there's still a bit of caffeine in it. Enter Teeccino, which tastes miles better than decaf coffee, and is fully caffeine-free. It's so rich that it feels like it has notes of chocolate in it, and so satisfying that I had to check the label a zillion times just to make sure I hadn't misread it, and it secretly was coffee. Nope — just a very delicious faux coffee beverage that pairs well with every dessert in my pantry.

www.amazon.com, Amazon
Promising review:"Saves me from auto logouts! My brother recommended this handy gadget. I work from home and have three monitors. When I leave my desk for lunch, the computer goes to sleep, and when I come back, everything is logged out, and whatever was on three monitors ends up on two. SO frustrating. This is programmable for three settings, and I use it on the minimal movement, so when I come back, everything is just as I left it. Revolutionary! Just remember to turn it on!" — Isaiah

Mindset is a small business that specializes in calming personal care and decor products.
Promising review:"I started meditating over a decade ago. Intermittent in the beginning, progressing deeper and finding new joys over time. With Breathing Buddha, the last thoughts have dropped away as counting breath always seemed to keep me conscious of, well, counting. Granted, I have always dropped the counting after a handful of breaths, but Breathing Buddha has made for a delightful transition as I realize it don't have to count at all. It is a lovely concept, well executed, and very easy to start using." — Lynn
Get it from Amazon for $21.95 (available in six styles).
16. A "Slice'n Store" butter dish that will stop you from dirtying a bunch of butter knives and leaving them on the counter. All you do is pop this out of the fridge, slice of a lil' (or large) slab with the built-in blade, and be on your merry, buttery way.

Overall, it's a fantastic kitchen gadget." — Tiffany Mueller

Claasico is a small business that specializes in wallet and tech accessories.
Promising review: "Loved everything about it. Only problem is I can never find my purse since it isn't necessary 99% of the time. Hands-free carrying is great and it can even fit a pen, stylus, and checks in with my phone. I can also attach my keys! This is a great purchase.

Promising review: "Super recommended! We have only used it a few times, but it has saved my poor legs and our arms from carrying stuff at events. It is super lightweight, comfortable to wear, and has lots of space. I am a bigger girl, and it holds me just fine sitting on it." — Purehoney
Get it from Amazon for $28.98+ (available in 11 colors).
21. A chunky statement ring for some subtle sophistication to both your elevated looks *and* your playful ones. Like all the (TikTok-beloved!!) Pavoi pieces on Amazon, this looks a loooot more expensive than it is, and is built to last.
I bought this for spring and I am obsessed with it. It looks adorable on its own but also easily stacks with my other rings, and it's so comfortable that I often forget I'm wearing it. I am a huge fan of Pavoi jewelry and wear it almost exclusively because of how elegant, affordable, and durable all their pieces are, and so far this piece has held up to the very high standard they've set!
Promising review: "Love. It's a nice quality costume jewelry. Order a size up if you're wanting to wear it on your middle finger or index finger." — Emily
Get it from Amazon for $12.95 (available in sizes 5–9 and in gold and silver).

www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I literally have no idea why I bought this. It was a suggested item and looked interesting, so I was like, 'lol, okay.' I can't believe how much I like it LOL. It looks and feels much nicer than you'd think, and the battery lasts forever. It has three shades of light, and it's extremely bright." — K
Get it from Amazon for $17.99.
23. An itty bitty flat water bottle, because sometimes you aren't Big Thirsty, but still Little Thirsty, and you shouldn't have to lug a whole ginormous tumbler to take care of it. This cheeky little insulated option is designed to tuck easily into purses, tote bags, and backpacks without taking up nearly as much space.
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "This is my new favorite water bottle. It looks nice, holds 10–12 ounces, seals well (no leaks), and is sized such that I can slip it into my back pants pocket (most of the time, if they are somewhat roomy) or in a large coat or vest pocket. I take regular 1–2 mile hikes, and I was sick of carrying around water bottles holding twice as much water as I drink. This works perfectly, no excess weight and easy to pocket. I will also use backpacking for an easy access water bottle." — CRIU
Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in five colors and in a larger size).
24. A retractable car charger so you can charge several devices at any time without having to untangle a veritable jungle of wires. This features a retractable iPhone and Type C charging cable, in addition to two extra charging ports, so it is basically the home base for all your travel tech needs.
Amazon
Check out a TikTok of the car charger in action.
Promising review: "Didn't realize I had so many cables in my car until I put this in. Now I just keep a few wrapped up in the glove box that fit older connections. Great that the cables retract out of the way. Only complaint could be that it is rather large, but it is to be expected with four connections. Little car voltage display is nice to have as well (everyone should have one of these, by the voltage amount it shows if your alternator is working)." — Jaxmoto
Get it from Amazon for $25.99.
25. A migraine relief beanie for when your brain decides it's going to rattle against your skull at the least convenient time possible. This gets icy *and* hot depending on what kind of relief you're looking for, and doubles as a sleep mask so you can block out harsh light or try to get some shut-eye for further relief.

Get it from Amazon for $16.90.
27. A ring can opener, because holy SMOKES can those be annoying to open. Reviewers swear by this for getting a quick and easy grip without wrecking their nails or cutting themselves on the edges of the lid. It's also a super handy tool for people with arthritis and joint pain.
