1. The Pink Stuff's new "Sqeezy" sponge set, which is living up to its "miracle" catchphrase by helping reviewers with their toughest cleaning projects, like grimy pans, mildewed showers, and marked-up walls. If you aren't already in the cult of Pink Stuff cleaning paste, it's so good at its job that reviewers call it " gold in a jar" and " witchcraft."
Promising review: "The 'abrasive sponge when cold' or 'squishy when hot' is an awesome feature for the type of scrubbing you want to do. The Pink Stuff with the sponge does wonders! We have a hideous 30-year-old shower and although it doesn't look brand new like I was hoping, it's 10 times better!! This product really does work!" — GreenGoddess

Promising review:"I recently tried the Olay Super Serum Body Wash, and I am absolutely in love with it! The formula is incredibly hydrating, leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth after every use. It lathers beautifully and has a lovely, light fragrance that isn't overpowering. After just a few uses, I noticed my skin looked more radiant and felt deeply moisturized.

Learn more about different kinds of eye drops and what they can do at Cleveland Clinic. Note that eye drops can potentially mask symptoms of eye conditions, so you should talk to your eye doctor about what's right for you. And according to Mayo Clinic, you should avoid redness-reducing drops if you're looking for dry eye relief.
Check out a frankly STARTLING TikTok of Lumify in action — they are not joking about how fast it works!
Promising review:"I have a big spot of blood vessels in the inner corner of my left eye. I use the expensive lubricant eye drops for moisture — I've used Visine, Clear Eyes, you name it.

www.amazon.com, Amazon
Promising review: "These things work! I've been dealing with bad breakouts recently and could not figure out what was causing them.

Here's what BuzzFeeder Jenae Sitzes says about it:"I finally tried out this tool with my Crave Naturals brush, which I used for (*checks Amazon order history*) TWO YEARS without every doing a deep clean of it. I mean, sure, I would regularly pull out the loose hair and whatever I could get to using my fingers, but there was always this gross layer at the bottom I couldn't reach, and I kind of just tried my best to pretend it wasn't there. LET ME TELL YOU: This tool is genius. With barely any effort, it pulled out that gross, years-old layer of *stuff* at the bottom of my brush (the photo above shows that layer already ~dislodged~ by the tool, right before I pulled it out), and now I don't have to feel disgusting every time I run it through my hair. It actually feels like it's doing a better job of *brushing* now too! Seriously, if you are a human with brushable hair on your head, you need this."
Get it from Amazon for $11.95.

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.'

Promising review: "I have a couple of pairs of sneakers I stopped wearing because they started looking a bit grungy.

Psst — this spray also does a number on all those other miscellaneous stains in your life, like wine, coffee, soy sauce, makeup, and period blood! I recently bought this to test it for myself, and can attest to how well it works to get period blood out even after you've tried something else. I stained a pair of beloved bright-blue bike shorts in my sleep and tried to get it out with soap and water, but the stain was still there when it came out of the wash. I treated it with this, stuck it back in the wash, and BOOM, it's like it never happened (I panicked before I could get a before and after, please forgive me, laundry gods).

Promising review:"I had no idea that cleaning a Keurig was a thing. I bought these because I saw them on TikTok, believe it or not. I wanted to give it a go because my Keurig isn't that old and I didn't think it would do anything. IT WORKS SO WELL! My Keurig wasn't as nasty as some I've seen, lucky. I would highly recommend, keeps everything running correctly and clean." — Lauren

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review:"Best foot callus remover I have ever used! I read a lot of the reviews before purchasing this product. Most callus removers I have purchased in the past were not very effective. So, I was encouraged by the reviews. I saw that a lot of reviewers mentioned being very careful not to leave it on longer than three or four minutes. My feet were the softest they had ever been. Love love love." — Cheri whisker
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in an extra strength version).

Promising review: "I am beside myself with this purchase!! I bought it hoping it would at least somewhat work, as so many don't. This is absolutely perfection! It works well, it's quiet, small, easy to take with you if you so desire, and most importantly...IT WORKS!!! I'm a soon-to-be-65-year-old woman who has hair where I never did before, most annoying. This gets rid of it. I used it again a couple of days later and what I am finding is that I need to use it less and less. Really cool!" — Sandy E'Bell

Promising review:"Was pretty skeptical. Bought it and it's changed my life. First use and I did not sweat, at all, for probably a week. I had already been using Lume deodorant for a few years now and was looking for something else as I felt I'm building a resistance to it. I should've been using this to begin with. Second application I applied to other areas of my body, zero sweat. Amazed." — Hanna L. Hetz

24. A reviewer-beloved anti-dandruff shampoo to relieve flaking and itching and help prevent outbreaks by getting directly to the root.

This shampoo was designed to work for sensitive scalps, color-dyed, and chemically processed hair, as well as for all hair types and textures, with reviewers with 3b–4c curls mentioning it worked for them.
Promising review: "I saw this product from a TikTok video. I was hesitant. I have been dealing with dandruff for almost 10 years, fortunately not that heavy but enough where it was embarrassing. I tried everything. Leave in conditioner, tea tree oil, Head and Shoulders, etc. One brand did work for a couple of days but that's it. But this product has worked EFFECTIVELY. Dandruff-free for two months so far. Can leave your hair feeling a little dry so just use conditioner and it will balance out. If other products aren't working for you with dandruff I can confidently recommend this one." — Martin C.
25. "Gloves In A Bottle," aka the hero of anyone with dry, cracked hands — this game-changing lotion not only helps heal your skin, but actively protects it for four to twelve hours, even through repeated hand washes.

Gloves in a Bottle is a small business that specializes in skincare products for working professionals.
Promising review:"I am a teacher and literally wash or sanitize my hands several times per hour! If I'm not washing my hands, I'm cleaning all the surfaces in my classroom with harsh cleaners. I thought I would try this lotion and I am thankful I took a chance! It is not only moisturizing, but it's not too scented or greasy. We are not allowed to wear perfume at school due to allergies, and this works perfectly. The best part is that after you do wash your hands, you can still feel the lotion! My cuticles are staying moisturized, too. I am going to get more for home and the car." — Chianti
Get it from Amazon for $19.95.
26. A pack of drug-free Breathe Right nasal strips reviewers quite literally claim " saved their marriage" — these provide instant snoring *and* congestion relief by increasing nasal airflow. Bonus: there's an optional "scratch and sniff" lavender scent if you want an extra dose of calm.
Promising review:"This product is a true gem. I'm eight months pregnant, and due to the baby pressing on my diaphragm, I've begun to snore terribly. My poor husband is a light sleeper, so I needed to figure something out. I started applying this at night, and he says he doesn't hear a peep out of me! If you have trouble sleeping or snoring, this is something you need." — Raevyn

Promising review:"This was the perfect solution for a busy mom like myself. I have three little ones, and every day there is a mess of some sort in the backseat. It saves time and money to not have to go to a carwash place and keep feeding the machine. It's simple to use and a great size. Wish the suction was a little better, but for the price and quality, I can't complain. It's a must!" — Amazon Customer
"TikTok made me buy it. I NEVER leave reviews buttt I was surprised at how well and powerful this vacuum was! And it wasn't loud. 10 out of 10 recommended. Go buy it and try it for yourself." — Jessica D. Williams

Promising review: "I saw a dermatologist recommend this on TikTok, and I figured I'd give it a try. I have had red bumps on the back of my arms for as long as I can remember and have tried multiple things, so I didn't have very high expectations. After one use, I could already see a difference! It says to use it 1–2 times a week, but I use it usually every other day, and I use Cerave rough and bumpy lotion after, and now my red bumps are almost nonexistent. This product has truly been life-changing, and I would recommend it to anyone struggling with red bumps! 10/10!" — Sydney
Get it from Amazon for $10+ (available in two sizes).
30. A set of reviewer-beloved "Loops Quiet 2," aka the "earplugs for people who hate earplugs."

www.amazon.com, Amazon
Promising review:"These earplugs are so good!! I had originally bought a completely different brand (because I was being cheap), and let me tell you, you get what you pay for. I found these Loop earplugs and decided to give them a try and I'm so glad that I did! They are so comfortable! Made from silicone so they are flexible and fit great. I've slept with them in all night without issues. The noise cancelling is fantastic! Now, does it block everything? No, but I think that's a good thing for safety reasons. They do block my husband's chainsaw snoring, and that is exactly what I needed them to do." — melanie98837
Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (available in seven colors; check out Loop's Amazon Storefront for more options related to concerts, offices, and parenting!).

www.amazon.com
Promising review: "Genius! I moved to a new part of California and my eyes kept watering. I tried allergy meds, but they didn't help much. Finally someone mentioned Ocusoft and I figured it couldn't hurt. What a difference! Ocusoft twice a day and keeping my eyeglasses spotless has totally solved the problem. All those tiny pollen spores that were stuck in places that irritated my eyes are gone. Really worth a try if you find your eyes are irritated seasonally." — Lindley Karstens
Get it from Amazon for $9.49.
Psst — if your allergies are bad bad bad and you want to go turbo on eye relief, Ocusoft also has allergy-relief eye scrub pads!).

Get a four-pack from Amazon for $3.78.
33. An under-cabinet lid opener for anyone who doesn't feel like playing another rousing game of "knock on the neighbor's door to see if someone can open this damn Nutella jar" (don't look at me!!). This is also an excellent space saver compared to other manual lid openers, and causes way less wrist strain!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Check out BuzzFeed's overview of the EZ Off Jar Opener.
Promising review:"I saw this item on TikTok. Yeap. I am so glad I got it! I have trouble opening jars and bottles, and this has been awesome. It works great. I followed the suggestion from other reviewers and installed it under the cabinet with the bottom of the 'V' facing away from the wall. You will have to twist the bottle counterclockwise. This method works well. I haven't had to use the little screws. I definitely recommend this item! It is wayyyyy better than the silicone grips." — Mariposista Queen
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
34. A magnetic necklace detangling clasp so you can layer your favorite pieces over an outfit the exact way you want them without having to pull them apart like bickering siblings at the end of each day.

www.amazon.com
Promising review:"These were awesome! My entire family suffers from motion sickness, especially carsickness. My little one gets sick in the car on a regular car ride through the city. So I knew that a long road trip was going to be a disaster. I was amazed at how well these bands worked for everyone! Not one single person complained about being sick for 12 hours in the car. I have suffered for decades and now I know better. I will never travel without mine again!" — 1SmartCookie
Get a set of two from Amazon for $8.53.
36. A "sit and wait" mold and mildew remover gel so easy to use that all you have to do is apply it, wait six to eight hours, and rinse off the mildew and mold to reveal your bathtub restored to its former glory. Just in time for a delightful "wine and book with a ton of bubbles in the bathtub" night.
Jenae Sitzes / BuzzFeed
Here's what BuzzFeeder Jenae Sitzes has to say about it: " I put this to the test on a gross, mold-stained corner of my own tub — I've scrubbed and scrubbed that area previously, and simply couldn't get the stains out until I used this stuff. As you can see above, I put on gloves (which is recommended on the packaging) and simply applied a thin strip to the area with black spots, then let it sit for six hours. After that point, all you do is rinse and check out the results! I didn't need to do a second application, but if you're dealing with some particularly tough stains, you can reapply as needed."
Promising review:"Wow! I would give this 10 stars if I could. We've had issues for a few years with the caulking behind the handle of our kitchen faucet turning black from mildew. We've scrubbed with what seems like a million different products with no luck. We were actually just talking about ripping out the caulking and doing a total replacement. But my husband saw this online the other day and decided to order it. Almost immediately, when he applied it, you could see it was starting to work. We left it on overnight, and the black is COMPLETELY GONE! It's incredible. It's 1,000% worth the (small) investment. Seriously — just buy this. It's amazing!!" — Nicole D.

Why is it a good deal? 💰 While this isn't the absolute lowest the pillow has hit, you can't put a price on getting a good night's sleep. That said, we'll take the $20 discount! Similar pillows can set you back $60 or more, plus this one has thousands of fans to back it up. Why do I need this? 🤔 What sets the Cozyplayer Cooling Cervical Pillow apart from your standard sleep cushion? For starters, its contoured design features a concave space to place your head, and it's ever so slightly tilted — 15 degrees — to keep your neck in position and aligned with your spine. This helps alleviate pressure, which in turn can combat pain and stiffness. According to Mather Hospital's David J. BenEliyahu, DC, "If you suffer with neck pain, especially after you wake up in the morning, you should consider using a special cervical or neck pillow. Sleeping with a cervical pillow can improve your neck posture, thus supporting tight muscles in your neck and shoulders. It also reduces the mechanical stress on the neck joints by keeping your neck in proper alignment." What should you look for in a pillow? Dr. BenEliyahu says, "The pillow must be flexible and be able to accommodate your head and support your neck. Looking from the side, your neck should be in alignment with your spine and parallel to the mattress. If you sleep on your back, you want your pillow to have enough give to let your head sink down and then support the neck." With that in mind, you can adjust the height of the Cozyplayer pillow by using or removing the memory foam insert at its base. Because its core is made up of 98% memory foam, it strikes just the right balance between comfortable and supportive — and if you sleep hot? You'll appreciate its Q-Max 0.4 Arc-Chill cooling pillowcase, which makes the pillow more breathable. What reviewers say 💬 More than 4,000 snoozers felt this pillow was worthy of a five-star rating. Pros 👍 "I am 69 years old and suffer from both cervical and lumbar osteoarthritis," shared one shopper. "To complicate life a bit more, I have never been able to sleep on my back or even in just one position. Most mornings, I would wake sore and stiff. Since receiving [this] pillow, my old pillow has been re-tasked with elevating my knees, and sleeping on my back is no longer an issue; in fact, the only things that disturb my sleep are my cats and my dog." "I've been using this pillow for over six months now, and my neck and shoulder pain is gone," wrote another. "I used to wake up with a stiff neck and [a] burning feeling that extended from my neck to my shoulder in the trapezius muscle. I'm quite happy with this pillow. Not only has it relieved my neck pain, it's very comfortable in most sleeping positions. I tend to move around a lot at night." "Best pillow for neck support ever!" exclaimed a third. "I have spent so much money trying to find a pillow to help me sleep better. I suffer from arthritis and RA. I have constant neck and shoulder pain. Sleeping was horrible. This pillow has been a life changer. And help keeps my neck secure." Cons 👎 "I have noticed an improvement in my neck pain since using this pillow. I'm also a hot sleeper and it's definitely helped with that too," began one reviewer. "If I had a negative, it would be that your neck has to be in the center; if you are somewhat off-center, there is some discomfort." "I've been using this for a couple of nights, and I definitely can say that I haven't experienced any neck pain and my sweating seems to have lessened," wrote a final fan. "My only complaint is that the pillow feels too low and flat for me. I actually place it on top of another pillow for more height, but I know that the manufacturer offers an extra foam insert, so I may reach out to them." (This is correct, you can contact the brand if it feels too low.) And for the rest of your body... If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.)

The medicube Salmon DNA PDRN Mask is on a rare Amazon sale
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. I've lost count of how many Korean skincare brands I've tested over the years. From cult classics to niche launches that barely make it beyond the Seoul underground, I've tried everything: ampoules, essences, toners, serums — you name it, I've put it on my face. Of all the brands I've reviewed, medicube has been one of the few I keep coming back to. So when I saw its Salmon DNA PDRN Pink Collagen Jelly Gel Mask (four of them!) for less than $20 on Amazon, I didn't hesitate. At first, I thought it was a listing error. This mask is sold in a four-pack, which means each treatment comes out to under $5. That's practically unheard of for something packed with PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide) and low-molecular-weight collagen: two powerhouse ingredients usually reserved for spa-level treatments or professional skincare lines. But no, the price was real, and naturally, I added it to my cart instantly. Advertisement Amazon I already had high expectations. I've reviewed nearly everything medicube has released — from its Zero Pore Pads to the Deep Vita C Capsule Cream — and I know the brand doesn't mess around when it comes to formulation. But even then, I wasn't expecting this mask to be this good. The texture alone made me pause. It's not your standard paper-thin sheet mask. This is a jelly gel mask that's cool to the touch, slightly plush and absolutely saturated in a thick, milky serum. It clings to the face just enough to stay put, but it's still best used while lying down. What caught me by surprise was how the color began to shift. The mask starts out an opaque pink but fades to almost clear as the ingredients absorb. I didn't even know I wanted a visual cue like that, but it was oddly satisfying to see it work in real time. And, once I took it off, my skin looked smoother, calmer and noticeably more hydrated. That post-mask glow wasn't just a trick of the light, and I was impressed. I could feel the difference the next morning, too. My skin felt firmer and bouncier, like I'd gotten a solid eight hours of sleep (I hadn't). It reminded me of the feeling I get after using medicube's Collagen Jelly Cream ($20), which I've raved about before. But this mask felt even more potent, a little more concentrated and certainly more luxurious. I know marketing claims can be hit or miss, but medicube actually backs theirs its numbers. Its internal tests reported over 79% immediate hydration improvement, with skin maintaining nearly 40% more moisture after 24 hours. The brand even measured improvements in fine lines, elasticity and skin texture. While I can't speak to the lab data personally, I can say my own results lined up, especially around my eyes and forehead, where I usually see the first signs of dullness when I'm tired or dehydrated. The Final Verdict While I love a good skin 'treat' (naturally), this mask has become more than that for me. It has become a regular part of my regular routine, especially on days when my skin is tired, dry or just feeling a little dull. It delivers real results, and it feels good while doing it. If you're deep into Korean skincare like I am — or even just starting out and want something that performs like a high-end product without the high-end price tag — this mask is a smart bet. For less than $5 per use, I get firmer, more hydrated, visibly refreshed skin. That's a result I'll happily pay for again and again.

Jeff Bezos mother, Jacklyn Gise Bezos, dies at 78
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos' mother, Jacklyn Gise Bezos, has died following a battle with Lewy body dementia, he announced on Instagram. She was 78. Gise Bezos died in her Miami home on Thursday, according to the Bezos Scholars Program, a foundation she started with her husband, Mike Bezos. "After a long fight with Lewy Body Dementia, she passed away today, surrounded by so many of us who loved her — her kids, grandkids, and my dad," Bezos, her eldest son, wrote in an Instagram post on Thursday. "I know she felt our love in those final moments." Lewy body dementia is a type of dementia in which protein bodies called Lewy bodies develop in the brain's nerve cells, impacting the regions involved in movement, memory and thinking, according to the Mayo Clinic. "Lewy body dementia causes a decline in mental abilities that gradually gets worse over time," the Mayo Clinic said. "People with LBD might see things that aren't there, known as visual hallucinations. They also may have changes in alertness and attention." Other symptoms of LBD include slowed movement, confusion, depression and memory loss, according to the Mayo Clinic. It is the second most common type of the dementia after Alzheimer's. Gise Bezos was born in Washington D.C. and eventually moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico with her family, according to the Bezos Scholars Program. She had her first child, Jeff, when she was in high school at the age of 17. "As a young, single mom, Jackie was relentless — taking night school classes following high school and working in a bank by day," the foundation said in their announcement of her death. "Her shift overlapped with a young Cuban immigrant who worked the night shift named Miguel (Mike) Bezos. The two fell in love and were married on April 5th, 1968, in what would be the beginning of a deep lifelong partnership across every aspect of their lives." The couple had two children together, Christina and Mark, and Gise Bezos "dedicated her life to her family and poured her heart into raising her children with compassion, patience, and wisdom," the foundation said. In his statement on her death, Bezos highlighted that his mother's adulthood started early because she had him young. 'That couldn't have been easy, but she made it all work,' Bezos wrote. 'She pounced on the job of loving me with ferocity, brought my amazing dad onto the team a few years later, and then added my sister and brother to her list of people to love, guard, and nourish. For the rest of her life, that list of people to love never stopped growing. She always gave so much more than she ever asked for." But Gise Bezos was also dedicated to education. At the age of 45 in 1991, she went back to school and earned a Bachelor of Arts from Saint Elizabeth University in New Jersey. "Returning to college as an adult and pursuing her own education was just another example of Jackie's determination and grace," the foundation said. "Her commitment to personal growth was an inspiration to all who knew her and a powerful reminder that it's never too late to follow your dreams." In 2000, Gise Bezos founded the Bezos Family Foundation with her husband, children and their families, and in 2005, they founded the Bezos Scholars Program, helping to offer leadership development programs to outstanding students from the U.S. to Africa, per their website. Gise Bezos' death comes just shy of two months after her billionaire son married Lauren Sánchez in Italy. The lavish events celebrating the couple were attended by Oprah, Queen Rania of Jordan, Ivanka Trump and many other VIPs. "We were all so lucky to be in her life," Bezos wrote about his mother. "I hold her safe in my heart forever."
