31 Products To Deal With Annoying Body Issues
A pack of two dark spot corrector soap bars packed with tons of vitamin C and turmeric — aka the ultimate superhero ingredients for potentially brightening and reviving dull skin. Reviewers have had luck using this on both the face and body — but we recommend giving it a patch test first on a small area to see how your skin reacts. All good? Then start sudsing away!
A simple but oh-so-effective toe separator that can potentially provide relief for overlapping toes and bunions. Just slip it over your second toe, and the medical-grade gel will help temporarily straighten your big toe and relieve pressure. And yes, they are washable and fit comfortably in most shoes!
A Listerine Pocketmist — the ultra-portable gadget that manages to freshen your breath while looking surprisingly sleek. I imagine this is what James Bond would whip out of his pocket before a date. You'll get 140 sprays in one container, which is certainly enough to get rid of morning coffee breath, afternoon tuna breath, and post-dinner garlic breath.
A pair of stainless-steel tongue scrapers for anyone who has googled "why does my breath stink so much?! reddit" a few too many times. This has a super convenient dual-handed design, so you can easily reach to the back of your tongue and then pull forward to evict the nastiness that's living there rent-free.
A bottle of Fur Oil, which will be your new best friend for soothing your skin after hair removal. It uses tea tree oil to potentially prevent ingrown hairs and jojoba and grape seed oil to help reduce redness and irritation from current razor bumps. Those last two oils mean you can even use it to condition your cuticles, scalp, and to seal split ends. I just looked up "multitalented" in the dictionary, and it just says "see: Fur Oil."
A bottle of Happy Nuts Comfort Cream — an aluminum-free lotion-to-powder formula that's designed to keep the ~downstairs area~ dry, comfy, and stank-free. If your... um ...🌎 globes 🌎 are susceptible to chafing in warm weather, you might want to keep a few bottles in stock.
Or Carpe's Groin Women's Powder that's not only silky smooth but also provides some wetness protection thanks to the corn starch base. While it's specifically designed to be safe to use on the groin, some reviewers have had success using it in skin folds and other sweaty areas. Oh, and the delightful white jasmine scent is a welcome bonus.
Lume's whole body deodorant WITH sweat control — it has the same odor-eliminating goodness of the original formula with added antiperspirant power! Spread it on your pits, skin folds, privates — anywhere that needs extra protection while you galivant around in the summer sun. Pro tip: apply it at night for best results so your skin can properly absorb it.
Or a pack of SweatBlock wipes, which might be the most aptly-named product ever; they truly block the sweat. They're super easy to use: dab the wipe on your underarms, let it dry for 3–5 minutes, let it sit overnight, then clean with soap and water in the morning. Once you do that, you'll be protected from excess sweat and odor for up to seven days.
Or!!! An aluminum-free Sol De Janeiro Rio Deo deodorant that not only helps prevent odors but is also available in four of SDJ's iconic scents (The "Cheirosa '62" scent is the same as Bum Bum Cream btw!). It's also designed to help soothe skin, and reviewers say it actually holds up all day.
A piercing bump solution formulated with jojoba, grape seed, and rose to keep any annoying keloids at bay! It can help shrink bumps and reduce scarring by promoting skin cell turnover and adding an extra dose of moisture.
First Aid Beauty's KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub Exfoliant, which has become a holy grail for people dealing with keratosis pilaris and all other bumpy skin-related issues. The mix of chemical and physical exfoliators will slough away dead skin and have you feeling silky smooth in just a few uses.
And! A butt acne-clearing lotion with tea tree oil to help prevent breakouts, banish bacteria, and clear folliculitis. It is designed to be gentle on sensitive skin, and some reviewers feel it even helps with keratosis pilaris.
Truremedy Naturals Remedy Tea Tree Oil body wash that can help tackle body and foot odor, and may even help clear up rashes thanks to tea tree oil's antibacterial properties. It's also packed with peppermint oil, which is the ultimate perk-you-up-in-the-morning scent when the coffee just isn't cutting it.
A pack of the Mighty Patch Pimple Spot Treatment — they're made of a wound-healing gel called hydrocolloid that can drain fluids from any open pimples and cover any that are already on the surface. These patches have racked up over 131,000 rave ratings, with many reviewers saying they're practically undetectable and adhere much better to the skin than other brands. Plus, your derm will be very relieved that you aren't popping it!
And a pack of cold sore patches to help speed up the healing process by keeping the area moist and protected. They're made with a no-touch applicator so you can easily adhere it without making contact with the sore, and reviewers say the clear design makes them fairly discreet (you can even apply makeup over it!).
A powerful callus remover that's a major upgrade from other harsh formulas you may have tried in the past. Some callus-removing products will make the surrounding skin feel dry and irritated, but this one includes a healthy dose of glycerin to help soften and hydrate. Go ahead and add some highly-rated sandals to your cart while you're at it.
A nail renewal formula to reverse any damage done by fungal infections, so it's essentially time travel in a bottle. The formula includes lactic acid, propylene glycol, and urea to help thicken, soothe, and reduce discoloration on your nails. Just apply twice a day for the first week, then once a day until your toes are looking good to go.
A bottle of earwax removal drops — it uses fizzy microfoam action to break down all the stubborn wax that's been clogging up your ears for way too long now. Just apply five to 10 drops to your ear, keep your head tilted for several minutes to let the carbamide peroxide loosen your hardened ear wax, then flush away any remaining wax with warm water in a bulb or syringe.
And an ear-washing bottle to help clear out the impacted wax that's causing you to say "huh?!" every time someone speaks to you. Just fill the bottle with an ear cleaning solution of your choice (some reviewers suggest a mix of water and hydrogen peroxide), insert the cleaning tip into your ear, and then give the bottle a few spritzes to help loosen up all the gunk. You'll be hearing in 4K in no time.
An all-over anti-chafe balm for anyone who is not actually about that hike life but still lets their super-active friends convince them to tag along. You can swipe this on your thighs, ankles, feet, neck, armpits, or anywhere else that needs some extra protection from the friction that's threatening to ruin your serene afternoon.
Seamless bra liners you'll wonder how you ever got by without. Simply place them in your bra and let the moisture-wicking fabric do its magic while keeping you extra comfy.
A wildly popular anti-dandruff shampoo — it uses ketoconazole to help fight dandruff and relieve itchy scalps. Several of the 77,000 rave reviews mention seeing a reduction in scalp flakiness when consistently used at least twice a week.
Compound W One Step Pads designed to remove plantar warts with ease, and also have reviewer photos that will inspire and traumatize you in equal measure. The medicated pads are packed with salicylic acid to help break down the wart, and you can replace them every 48 hours for best results for up to 12 weeks.
A pack of hypoallergenic body wipes for the days when you need to skip the shower and take the lazy route instead. We've all been there. These are infused with aloe so your skin will feel refreshed, clean, and silky smooth!
CeraVe's Renewing Salicylic Acid Cleanser so you can banish the acne that's popping up like daisies all over your body now that warmer weather is finally here. Reviewers have had luck using it on face and body acne, with many saying it reduces rough skin, bumps, and pimples with consistent use.
A pack of thin and discreet incontinence pads to provide some absorbent protection on the days when your bladder has a mind of its own. It's made with ~FreshSense~ fabric to lock in any odors and keep wetness from leaking through.
A deodorizer shoe spray made with peppermint and eucalyptus oils that's safe enough to spray directly on your feet so you can tackle those odors from the source. It's designed to dry super quickly, so you can spray it and put your shoes on right away.
A saline nasal gel to help avoid any discomfort caused by the dust mites and pollen that are ignoring the "do not enter" sign and trespassing in your nostrils. The aloe will help keep your nasal passages from getting dry and crusty, and it can also reduce irritation caused by chronic sinusitis that might flare up due to all the *flings hands around wildly* in the air.
A tonsil stone-removing kit that's impressed more than 6,800 Amazon reviewers so far. If you're dealing with constant bad breath, strange tastes, or even pain, it might be time to check for tonsil stones. Thanks to the built-in LED light, this tool makes it super simple — all you have to do is loosen the stone by spraying water with the syringe, use the lighted tool to remove the stone, and then rinse the hole with the syringe.

From rescues to life lessons, why dads are praised as lifelong mentors
From donating a kidney to their child to paying off their kid's credit card debt, a new survey revealed some of the most heroic dad acts in honor of Father's Day. In the survey of 2,000 Americans, one respondent shared, 'The most heroic thing my father has ever done for me was during Hurricane Harvey — he trudged through the waters to come get me.' Another reminisced, 'He stopped working and took care of me when I had a car accident.' The poll uncovered that dads truly are the most helpful heroes, with people sharing stories of selflessness and kindness. One person said, 'My dad came and stayed with me when I got a divorce and stayed until he passed away.' Conducted by Talker Research and commissioned by SweatBlock to spotlight how much dads have helped their children over the years, especially when it comes to building up their confidence, the study found that for those who grew up with a dad, most (70%) said their dad is one of their greatest mentors in life. Seventeen percent said their dad is the person they go to the most when they need advice and one in four (25%) shared that their father is the person they call first in a stressful situation when they need help or support. In fact, more than a fourth (29%) revealed they've called their dads for help in the last week. Some of the most heartwarming things dads have come to the rescue for have been helping their kid heal from a breakup (19%), making a rent payment their child couldn't afford (22%) and helping their child figure out their life goals (30%). According to the findings, dads have taught their children how to stand up for themselves (38%) and how to be their best selves (32%). They've helped their kids cultivate practical skills like driving (49%), fixing things around the house (43%) and changing a tire (31%) as well as interpersonal tools like problem solving (47%), communication (39%) and making a good impression (37%). According to respondents, when it comes to self-care, the dads have been helpful there as well, teaching their kids the importance of maintaining their physical (40%) and mental health (30%) as well as the value of splurging on yourself now and again (28%) and having a polished look and appearance (25%). Of the men who grew up with a dad, many learned how to tie a tie from their father (32%) and used their shaving cream (29%) and deodorant (26%) when they were young. More than a quarter (26%) even said their dad bought them their first deodorant. 'We commissioned this study in honor of Father's Day to showcase just how much we owe our dads — from teaching us all things practical, like how to drive, to essentials like how to make a good first impression and the importance of a polished, confident look,' said Chase Purles, chief executive officer at SweatBlock. 'Grooming is especially important for making a good first impression on someone and feeling confident in everything you do.' Looking at confidence more closely, most respondents (59%) rated themselves as 'very' or 'extremely confident.' More than six in 10 (61%) feel they handle stressful situations 'well' or 'expertly', but even so, 58% said they typically start sweating in stressful situations. A good number (39%) confessed they get embarrassed if they're visibly sweaty around others, and shared recent embarrassing sweaty moments like 'When I met my daughter's new boyfriend on FaceTime. Yes, I was embarrassed. I made fun of myself and told him I was sorry he had to meet me looking subhuman.' Or, 'I once had to give a big presentation at work with little preparation time. I was visibly sweating and felt embarrassed, but I took a deep breath, focused on the key points, and pushed through. Afterwards, I felt proud [of myself] for handling the pressure.' Examining people's essentials to feel confident all throughout the day, respondents said a good hair day (47%), strong deodorant (40%) and a stylish outfit (36%) are the most important must-haves. 'Being confident in yourself and your appearance will allow you to direct your focus to the most important things in your life,' said Purles. 'A strong, effective deodorant is key here. No one likes to be damp sweaty, especially when stressed and problem solving. As respondents said, it's one of the most crucial things for feeling poised all day long.' HEROIC DAD ACTS 'My dad donated his kidney to me.' 'He just paid off my credit card debt.' 'The most heroic thing my father has ever done for me was during Hurricane Harvey — he trudged through the waters to come get me.' 'He stopped working and took care of me when I had a car accident.' 'My dad came and stayed with me when I got a divorce and stayed until he passed away.' 'When I wanted to go into business and asked him to [be a] co-signer and put up his house as collateral and he did.' 'On my wedding day, he had to change [a] flat tire before we left for my wedding…it was truly stressful but we made it and his tuxedo did not get damaged.' 'My dad passed away when I was 14 but right before he passed he bought me tickets to go see my favorite singer in concert, George Michael, and he gave me money to buy stuff at the concert [and] it was a dream come true.' 'He worked several jobs in order to be able to afford to put me in college so I won't have to get so many student loans.' 'When I lost my job a few years ago, it was one of the most stressful moments. My dad immediately offered to assist us out financially until I could get back on my feet, which greatly relieved my burden.' 'When my first husband died and left me a widow when I was 32. My dad was there to do whatever I needed.'Talker Research surveyed 2,000 Americans; the survey was commissioned by SweatBlock and administered and conducted online by Talker Research between May 15 and May 19, 2025.
