Including a top-rated fungal nail renewal treatment, strengethening biotin shampoo, and the viral redness-reducing Lumify eye drops.
1. A super cute set of six silicone Kegel weights because pelvic floor exercises definitely count as a workout and can lead to great results like improved bladder control and, yup, more pleasurable sex.
The silicone material means these kegel weights are very simple to clean, with either sex toy cleaners or mild soap and water.
Promising review:"Since starting, my bladder control has significantly improved. I am now able to sneeze or cough without peeing myself. Yes, that's right. I am able to hold my pee longer, which means I can actually make it to the bathroom without dribbling on myself. The best part is that just a few short weeks into the program you will have results you can feel. I think [anyone] who has ever had kids should try this, out. The overall quality of my life has improved. Ditch your panty liners, stop the embarrassing dribbles, no more mad dashes to the rest room because of a weak bladder. Even my sex life has improved; I have control of those pelvic muscles now. Just remember to wash the weights before and after each use. Easy to use, easy to clean, stores away quickly." — Julie Tauber
Get a set of six weights from Amazon for $49.98.
2. A fungal nail renewal treatment formulated with lactic acid, urea, and propylene glycol to help reduce discoloration, thicken your nails, and leave them looking smoother and healthier! It's truly a must if you've been looking for a solution to brittle toenails and other visible fungal damage that may be preventing you from confidently wearing open-toed shoes.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I've been dealing with a bad fungus nail for about three years. I've been trying to use products off the shelf and bought one here, you know the ones with the brush. It never worked 'til I bought this one. Let me tell you, it only took just under a week to see GREAT results. It's pretty much gone and it's been less than two months. Buy it and don't think about it! You won't regret it!" — itslilac
Get it from Amazon for $16.97+ (available with or without a nail file).
3. Anua Heartleaf Pore Control Cleansing Oil for all skin types to help purge excess oily sebum, makeup, and blackheads from your pores. Some reviewers even use it as part of a double-cleansing method, which means washing their face with this (an oil-based cleanser) first, and then following up with a water-based cleanser for a skincare regimen that's influencer-worthy.
BTW, even reviewers with acne-prone skin love this product and say it doesn't cause breakouts after use!
Promising reviews: "This product is incredible. After one use, I noticed a difference. I am so impressed with it. I don't know what kind of sorcery this is, but I am happy it exists. If you've been buying products to get rid of blackheads and nothing is working, this will make you very happy." — A
"I can't live without this cleansing oil; it's magic in a bottle. this is the only thing that's been able to clear the sebaceous filaments on my nose after consistent use daily!! it also helps the milia/filaments under my eyes! LOVE ITTTTT WHO LET ME LEAVE THE HOUSE WITHOUT DOUBLE CLEANSING AT NIGHT." — Sarah Coleman
Get it from Amazon for $17.69.
4. A two-pack of dark spot fading bar soap with a revitalizing and hydrating blend of retinol, hyaluronic acid, shea butter, turmeric, and vitamins C and E for a hydrating cleanse to help even skin tone and reduce dark spots on your face, neck, and body if that's something you're looking to do. Say buh-bye to buying swim shorts if your inner thighs bother you (they certainly don't need to, we're pro embracing your dark spots!) — and either way, hello to bikini season!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I'm big, so my inner thighs have always been darker than the other parts of my legs. I've tried other products for it but nothing has worked. I HAVE BEEN USING THIS SOAP FOR THREE DAYS AND OMG!!!! My inner thighs are SMOOTHER, and they are ALMOST THE SAME COLOR AS THE OTHER PARTS OF MY LEGS, I'M SO SO SO HAPPY!!!! I hate that I didn't take a before picture but trust me!!!! BUY IT!!!! My face also looks brighter and fresher, agghhh!!" — Daphney

5. A set of ingrown hair pads for exfoliating your underarms, legs, or bikini area after shaving with a blend of glycolic acid, salicylic acid, witch hazel, and aloe.

And these pads are vegan, silicone-, alcohol-, sulfate-, paraben-, and fragrance-free, as well as compostable!
Promising reviews: "Works fast with consistency! I applied morning and night making sure to dry 100% before putting on clothes! I'm so happy with my results so far! I've been using it only for four days and my bumps / ingrowns have shrunk and faded! No new ingrowns since I've started! (Also using it with the KP Bump Eraser.) If you've been looking for something that works fast, give this a try — I think you'll be satisfied!!!" — Abby H
"So for the past few years anytime I shaved my legs, I would end up with really itchy red bumps all over. They would itch so bad, I would scratch and would start to scar. ...I use [these] right after shaving and then the day after and I have not had itchy irritated legs since! I have tried so many things over the years and this is the only product that has worked so far. I can finally shave and have smooth legs!" — Haley
Get a set of 28 from Amazon for $20+ (also available in a set of 60 and three-pack).
6. An aptly named antifungal "Wonder Balm" that'll help you tend to bothersome itchiness, such as jock itch or athlete's foot and, of course, very, very dry skin. The extra-strength, plant-based formula helps keep your skin protected as it works its magical-seeming relief.
www.amazon.com

Solpri is a small business specializing in body care products for athletes.
Promising review: "This soap lathers well, smells good, and makes skin feel clean and soft. Great for sweaty crevices and skin flareups. I had no problem with it melting too fast, just lather up a sponge/wash cloth and don't use the bar directly on your body with water spraying." — shelly
Get a two-pack form Amazon for $17.99.
8. A bottle of sulfate-free Biotin shampoo created with a blend of botanical extracts to help thicken the appearance of your hair. Plus, since it's a clarifying shampoo, it also gets rid of product buildup on your scalp when you use it!
www.amazon.com
Read more about how biotin shampoo could help with the fullness of hair at Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review:"I love this shampoo! I had gastric sleeve surgery and my hair was very, very thin. I started taking biotin and switched to biotin shampoo as recommended by my doctor. It doesn't make your hair grow by washing it but it makes your hair and roots stronger. And it worked. After using the whole bottle, my hair was stronger. I had a lot of new growth that was sticking around (the previous new growth fell out early on) and my hair was getting thicker. Eight months later, my hair is back to normal. It's longer and thicker than ever. I still use it twice a week and love it!" — Diane J. Huff
Get it from Amazon for $13.95+ (available in four sizes, three scents, and a two-pack).

According to the Cleveland Clinic, some researchers have found rosemary oil to be as effective at encouraging hair growth as Rogaine! And read more about how biotin could help with the fullness of hair at Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: "Legit magic in a bottle. Wish I could order this stuff by the gallon. Took a chance on this because I was desperate, having already spent so much money on luxury and drugstore products with little results. I use this as a pre-treatment on scalp and ends before I wash hair. Scalp has improved dramatically. I feel like there's not as much breakage/fallout, and my ends are fuller. (This is after like six months, but my scalp was better immediately.)" — Claire Blanchard
Get it from Amazon for $9.97
10. A pair of teeth-whitening pens to help remove years (!!!) of staining from your pearly whites, simply by applying a thin layer twice a day! Coffee, red wine, chocolate, and other things that stain your teeth no longer have to be your nemesis after adding this pen to your routine — you'll wish you started using this years ago!
www.amazon.com
Each pen can be used up to 20 times.
Promising review:"I have extremely sensitive teeth from over-whitening in high school but this product has been such a lifesaver! I am a daily black coffee and red wine [drinker] so my teeth have taken a toll as far as staining goes. Seriously, I was very hesitant on getting this because of how sensitive my teeth are but I wish I got it sooner! This is such a great product!" — Mimi Doherty
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $9.33+ (also available in packs of four or individually).
11. A bottle of signature Fur Oil for softening and cleansing pubic hair and skin to tackle those pesky ingrowns and deliver more moisturized and smoother skin below the belt. Lots of reviewers nabbed this on recommendation from their go-to wax professionals and swear by using it in their post-wax routine!
Promising reviews:"I am prone to ingrown hairs. I have VERY coarse pubic hair and every time I shave, I get razor bumps and ingrown hairs as the hair starts to grow back. Very embarrassing. This has led me to lean more toward trimming that shaving. I decided to try to shave one more time — well, I used Nair and removed my pubic hair from my genital area. I used Fur Oil every day morning and night after the removal, and even as the hair grows back and beyond. I would also exfoliate the area about two to three times a week with a coffee scrub that I got on here. The hair has started to grow back with zero bumps or ingrown hairs. It has actually been over a month and still no issues. This has never happened to me before. I have never not removed hair down there and not had ingrown hairs and hair bumps. This is a new experience for me, and I am loving it. I have even removed hair again since then and still no problems. My only complaint is the size of the bottle, and the smell is so-so. It is a very small bottle for the price. I will continue to use this combination of products, though, because I know it works. I am satisfied." — In the know
"Recommended to me by my waxer. I was a little hesitant at first because it's pretty expensive, but I haven't had a single ingrown hair since using this oil. I am diligent on application of the oil, and it's been great. It lasts — I've been using it for about two months, and there's still a ton in the bottle." — Megan Harmeyer
Get it from Amazon for $28+ (available in two sizes).
12. An easy-to-use ear washer bottle designed to single-handedly (literally) irrigate built-up ear wax from your canals in a similar fashion that a doctor would in an office! Fill the bottle with an ear cleaning solution, apply one of the included disposable tips, place it in your ear, and squeeze the trigger to deliver some much-needed relief. Do you hear that? ...Well, after a thorough cleaning, you can!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Included in the kit is the washer bottle and three disposable tips. You can fill the bottle with your preferred ear cleaning solution, and the combination of the solution and targeted application will help loosen up ear wax, so it just falls right out!
Doctor Easy is a small business by a doctor who wanted to create better methods for treating patients' impacted earwax issues.
Promising review:"Gross photos. My husband has had a lot of earwax impaction problems in his life and up until this point we have paid to have a professional take care of it. But recently, he suddenly lost about 80% of his hearing and just couldn't wait for an appointment so we bought this item. From the reviews I have read it was a particularly easy solution for my husband. Nasty huge chunks start falling out after just a couple of squirts. Cleared everything out, no problem. Highly recommend." — Tea
Get it from Amazon for $29.50.
13. Or a bottle of earwax removal drops if you're constantly feeling plugged up and want to do something about it without making a doctor's appointment (and shelling out for a hefty copay). This easy-to-use microfoaming carbamide peroxide solution begins working in seconds to loosen up hardened earwax, so you can flush it away and enjoy massive relief.
BTW to properly irrigate your ear after using these drops, you'll need either a classic bulb syringe or this fancier, quad-stream syringe designed specifically for wax removal.
Promising review:"Folks. Buy it. This is like head lice treatment. If you are looking at it and thinking about it, YOU NEED IT. And this stuff. Is. Awesome. Literally chunks of ear wax came out of my ear holes the SIZE OF CORN KERNELS. Where was this coming from? Why is my body making so much wax? Where was it being stored, because I did NOT think ear canals were that spacious, but apparently there are some storage closets in there or something because HOLY MARY MOTHER OF GOD the ear nuggets are real. My ears feel so squeaky clean! And get this, my hair makes sounds. Like I put it up in a hair tie afterward, and I could HEAR MY HAIR MOVING ON MY HEAD. What is that?! Seriously?! If you also did not know that moving hair creates a sound, you need to buy this product ASAP." — Samantha
Get it from Amazon for $6.99.
14. Cosrx Snail Mucin 96% Power Repairing Essence, a top-rated, highly-concentrated serum made up of 96.3% snail secretion for a lightweight formula that helps hydrate and restore dry, dull skin, leaving you with a glowing complexion. Whoever thought about adopting a snail's skincare "secret" might actually be a genius.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: " Skincare game changer. I started using this two years ago, and this product has transformed my skin completely! I have dull, dry skin and this helps hydrate and makes my complexion look healthy and hydrated. I use this under my moisturizer day and night." — Nhi Luu
Get it from Amazon for $19.20.
15. Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel, which is under $10 *and* has a massive cult following. This gel is practically witchcraft for how well it minimizes swelling and puffiness. This skincare favorite will seriously have you covered after late nights at the office, meeting deadlines before the end of the quarter! 😩
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising reviews:"I love this product and have noticed a huge difference when using it consistently. I am on the younger side and don't have the worst under-eye bags, but on those occasional mornings when my eyes are puffy with somewhat visible dark circles, this product definitely does the trick! Honestly love all the Good Molecules products." — Hayden Smith
"Saw this on TikTok and decided to give it a try since the price was amazing. OMG, buy it. I've always had dark circles under my eyes and now fine lines and crow's-feet. While this doesn't completely eliminate my dark circles, the fine lines are really diminished. It wears extremely well under makeup and doesn't feel cakey or like there's a ton of product on." — K. Grant
Get it from Amazon for $5.98.
16. And Catrice "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener that's designed with a lightweight, color-balancing formula infused with hydrating hyaluronic acid and nourishing shea butter for a reliable coverage solution. Color-balancing in makeup is truly nothing short of practical magic...especially if it can disappear dark circles and under-eye bags!
www.amazon.com
Because of the color-balancing, each of the shade options is designed to work with a range of skin tones. For example, the light rose would be best for fairer skin and the dark mocha hue would work for deeper skin tones.
Promising review: "Took years off my eyes! This product is so reasonably priced. I came across a TikTok promoting this and decided to take a chance since the price was super reasonable. My eyes looked brighter in a good way, and the concealer worked so well that I felt I looked younger. I got compliments from friends asking what I did differently with my makeup. I recommend it." — Placeholder
Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in three shades).
17. A popular Eos body lotion beloved by reviewers for its lightweight formula, boasting a blend of skin-loving oils and moisturizing shea butter that leaves your skin silky smooth. Plus, it comes in an assortment of smells so delectable, there's no wonder it's constantly on Amazon's "Trending Best Sellers" list! Trust me, you'll be obsessed *and* moisturized!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
The most popular scent is their vanilla cashmere, which boasts notes of whipped vanilla, musk, and caramel. Other scents include "coconut waters" (notes of creamy coconut hibiscus) and "fresh and dewy" (a light blend of musk and cassis).
Promising review:"Love this lotion. It is very thick and hydrating. Easy to apply. My skin feels very moisturized after application. The smell is definitely the best part. I have sensitive skin, so I struggle to find scented lotion that I like, but this one has not caused any flare-ups on my skin." — Jaquelin g.
Get it from Amazon for $8.98 (available in four scents).
18. A hydrating lip-plumping gloss duo featuring a ginger-infused plumping gloss to deliver expensive-looking volume to your pout by day, and a secondary, minty overnight mask so your lips can be nourished and softened after a full day of giving '90s no-makeup makeup look perfection.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
19. A bottle of professional-grade callus-removing gel that effortlessly aids in the removal of calluses, cracks, and dead skin from your soles and heels. It also boasts glycerin for softening and hydrating the skin afterward. With this in your arsenal, you'll be ready to embrace sandal and flip-flop season arms wide open!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
To use this, simply presoak your feet, apply the gel, let sit for 5–10 minutes, and rinse! It's recommended to use this product in tandem with a foot file afterward to make sure no gel residue or dead skin remains!
Promising review:"Best product I've ever got from Amazon. This thing is really what everyone said it is: MAGIC. I cannot believe after one use the results of my callouses, just years and years of pain, shaved down without any surgical treatment! WOW! I seriously have no words. If I could give this product 1 million stars, I would. If you're someone who's had horrible calloused feet for years, PLEASE BUY THIS!" — Jess
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three scents and in packs of two).
20. Lumify Eye Drops to help reduce redness in record time. It didn't climb its way to being a number one seller for no reason — according to reviewers, you see results in just minutes!
www.amazon.com
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 TikTok of the eye drops in action.
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. No eye drop has made my eyes look this great. Only Lumify! I was soo happy when I looked in the mirror and saw some beauty in my eyes instead of darkness and redness." — Angela Leonard
Get it from Amazon for $11.93
21. Some dual-sided large shower wipes designed with soothing aloe, chamomile, and vitamin E if you want to wipe down and wash up in the airport restroom after stepping off a 14-hour flight before *finally* starting your much-needed vacay. One side is soft and smooth, while the other has "funk beads" to help with scrubbing and exfoliating to make sure dirt, sweat, and odors don't linger!
www.amazon.com
These wipes are alcohol-, phthalate-, paraben-, and sulfate-free! They also come individually wrapped, so you can keep one in a backpack, gym bag, or purse! BTW — these are from the same creators of the popular SweatBlock antiperspirant wipes!
Promising reviews: "I use these wipes every time after playing a round of golf and they are excellent at what they do. Takes the sweat, dirt, sunscreen, mosquitoes repellent and anything else off my body and makes [me] feel fresh again whenever I can't go home to shower. I don't have to worry if I look grimy in the office or anywhere I'm heading after." — Mr. Turyman
"Second purchase and I love bringing these camping! It has an exfoliating side, so I feel clean after using it and pleased to see how much dirt it picks up after a weekend in the woods!" — Rachel
Get a pack of 10 from Amazon for $9.99.
22. A pack of medicated, waterproof wart-removing pads to help protect your warts while also helping exfoliate them from your skin if freezing hasn't been giving you the results you want. Over 35,000 customers have rated these five stars for their jaw-dropping results (some after just one application)!
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I had a wart on my finger that I had been trying to get rid of for a while. I used all different kinds of freezing medicines and wart removers and ended up with this as a last resort before going to a doctor. These had my wart come off my finger within a week — no pain, literally just came off when I decided to change my bandaid. Amazing!!" — K Pic
Get a 14-pack from Amazon for $7.29+ (available in three styles).
23. A stainless-steel blackhead spatula which uses high-frequency vibrations to help unclog pores and exfoliate your skin. After each cleaning cycle, your face will be readily prepped to absorb skincare products and makeup better, leaving you with a more even complexion! ✨
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Each cycle runs for just five minutes before automatically shutting off, and TBH that's all you need for a satisfying daily clean! See it in action on TikTok here.
I got a facial a couple of years ago and I could tell something was different about my extractions, so I asked the aesthetician to write down the name of the product. I went home and immediately bought this! I LOVE IT. I love it more than any other skincare tool that I own. This thing gets gunk out like nothing I've ever tried before, and the first time I used it, I was absolutely disgusted. But I kept on using it. I don't have much acne, but I do have oily combination skin and visibly clogged pores, so this has been a lifesaver when I don't have time to visit an aesthetician. You have to use it while your face is still wet, so after washing your face or even using toner, and you just start scraping. Make sure you have a paper towel near (and maybe a camera) because you will be amazed and disgusted all at once, but you will literally never stop using. I use mine every other day to once a week if I'm having skincare issues, but it also does a great job with monthly use (it's just much grosser)! I follow mine up with Clinique's Clarifying Lotion 3 and Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel!
Promising review:"After using this product I have noticed a clarity of my skin that I did not have before. My makeup glides on. People have told me skin looks glowy." — Valerie Santos
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in three colors).
24. A bottle of Bio-Oil that helps fade scars, stretch marks, dark spots, and acne marks. You'll be oh-so-grateful to have a bottle of this magical product on hand to help minimize post-surgery scars once you've finally recovered from tearing your ACL playing corporate kickball!
www.amazon.com
Its moisturizing, multipurpose formula features rosemary, chamomile, and lavender oils, along with vitamins A and E, for a skin-soothing all-over oil.
Promising reviews:"This is the first Amazon review I've ever written. I've been using this oil for less than a week and I've noticed SIGNIFICANT improvement in the quality of my skin. I've had deep stretch marks for over 10 years now as a result of puberty and have tried everything to improve their appearance. Nothing had worked until this! After only a few days of use, my old white stretch marks are looking less noticeable. I've also had dark spots on my thighs as a result of ingrowns and razor burn for years as well and those are fading with incredible speed. I will definitely be purchasing this again!" — Torie
"My daughter got bit by a dog over the summer and we tried EVERYTHING to help with her scars. The day after we started using Bio-Oil the redness started to disappear. Now after only three weeks, some of the minor scars are gone and the more major scars are visually reducing day by day!" — Hvej
Get a 2-oz. bottle from Amazon for $11.12+ (also available in 6.7 oz. and 4.2 oz.).
25. A CeraVe salicylic acid body wash to gently exfoliate your skin and help eliminate KP bumps (also known as "strawberry skin"). Plus, its formula boasts a blend of hyaluronic acid and niacinamide, which are great for keeping your skin hydrated and looking its best!
www.amazon.com
26. Plus, an acne-clearing lotion created especially for your bum that features an anti-bacterial and moisturizing formula with tea tree oil to help reduce breakouts. Time to add more thongs to your underwear drawer and show off that rear!
www.amazon.com
Read more about how tea tree oil can help with acne from Mayo Clinic.
Promising review:"This product works, but takes time! I have really bad stubborn acne on my butt and thighs... this product did not clear them up right away, considering I have bad acne so that was to be expected. I am now on week three and am finally noticing a difference in the acne. It is actually mostly clear! if you are willing to wait for the results then this is a good product for you. I noticed if you stop using (which I did for a period of time) the acne does come back! So I would use for awhile after skin has healed as well. This is definitely needed for summer time! Thank you so much for making this product, seems to be the only thing that worked for me!" — Anonymous
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
27. A powerhouse trio of serums: retinol, vitamin C, and hyaluronic acid, which work together to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as brighten, smooth, hydrate, *and* plump your skin for a glowing complexion.
www.amazon.com
Make sure to follow the guidelines from the brand on how to use these three products together for best results!
Promising review: "I'm in my mid-30s and realized it was time to step up my skincare game. I always looked younger than my age, but recently that's worn off a bit and makeup remover wipes and argan oil at night weren't cutting it. I happened across this trio and, for the price, thought I'd give it a try. My skin feels AMAZING!!! This trio is worth every penny. I don't even feel like I have to wear makeup all the time anymore and when I do, it goes on so much smoother. This is definitely going to be part of my routine for years to come!" — Caitlin
Get the pack of three from Amazon for $24.99 (also available in other sets).
28. An assorted set of precision tweezers that allow you to touch up and groom your brows by hand or quickly remove pesky chin hairs at home, on the go, or even as one reviewer did: in the carpool lane! The set includes four styles of tweezers, each of which is designed for grabbing different types of hair and expert-level shaping.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Each set includes a pair of pointed tip, slant tip, flat tip, and angle tip tweezers, an eyebrow razor, curved eyebrow scissors, a dual-ended spoolie brush, and a carrying case.
Promising review: "I bought this kit because the pair of tweezers I had couldn't get a single hair anymore. This set is SO amazing, I'm really glad I purchased it!! I tweezed my eyebrows, any hairs on my upper lip, and chin all in a quarter of the time it would've taken me with my old tweezers and each pair had a separate use which made everything so much easier. My eyebrows looked horrible before and now I'm finally so happy with them. My only complaint is that the razor and spoolie don't fit in the actual bag with the tweezers and scissors so it's a bit difficult to take them with me if needed." — unicornfountain
Get it from Amazon for $6.64+ (available in four colors).
29. A nail strengthening cream to help condition cuticles and promote nail growth with a nourishing combination of urea, shea butter, coconut oil, beeswax, and other moisturizing and reparative ingredients. With consistent use, you'll be showing off your IG-worthy manicures in no time!
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"My natural nails are thin and brittle, and have a tendency to split, peel, and break. Consequently, I wore acrylic nails for several years until I got tired of leaving so much money at the nail salon. When I soaked off the acrylics, my nails were, of course, worse than ever, and nothing I tried seemed to restore them to even their original condition until I found Hard as Hoof Nail Strengthening Cream. I rub this into my cuticles and nail beds several time a day and after two months my nails are hard and much thicker with no breaking or splitting. For the first time since I took off the acrylics, my nails are growing past my fingertips. This cream is a keeper, just ordered my second jar and I'll never again be without it." — M. Hill
Get it from Amazon for $8.88+ (available in two scents).

These $7 Motion Sickness Glasses Actually Work

At age seven, while bumping along in the back of my parent's VW bus and thoroughly immersed in Roald Dahl's 'The BFG,' I was struck with an overwhelming wave of nausea that culminated in tossing my cookies on the side of the interstate highway. Thus began my very long and arduous relationship with motion sickness. Fast-forward to recent adulthood, when I came across some bizarre-looking glasses that promised to deter motion sickness, thanks to the magic of their cartoonish shape. Tired of being sick every time I traveled, I decided to put these glasses to the test, no matter how ridiculous they made me look. I'll cut right to the chase and say that these things worked. Like, shockingly well. And while they usually retail for around $10 at Amazon, they're currently only $6.99 when you use the promo code to redeem the 30% coupon. (You'll see two individual coupons — one for 20% and one for 30% off — on the product page, but the discounts can't be combined, so we say go with the 30% discount for the best savings.) The flexible frames of these spectacles are made up of four circles filled halfway with a blue liquid that, when worn, can only be seen in your peripheral vision. In the name of science (and at the risk of my stomach), I wore the glasses sitting in the backseat of the car, while reading, as my partner drove around. Normally, and especially under these circumstances, it would take less than a few minutes for the nausea and headaches to hit. But this time, my symptoms never came. To find out, I spoke with Dr. Neil Bhattacharyya, board-certified otolaryngologist and professor of otolaryngology at Massachusetts Eye and Ear and Harvard Medical School. He explained that motion sickness is caused when a disconnect occurs in the brain's ability to detect where the body is in motion. Although Bhattacharyya can't say for sure all the reasons the glasses are effective, he thinks that the liquid sloshing back and forth inside the rings helps the eyes to recognize movement and create an artificial horizon, allowing the brain to bridge the gap between motion and stability. If you or your child experiences a similar struggle, it might be worth your while to grab yourself a pair before your next road trip, plane ride or cruise.

A cult-favorite foot file that'll grind away at calluses and have your heels and toes looking silky smooth and ready to slip into your go-to sandals. There are many foot files out there, but thousands of reviewers say this one works like a charm. Lumify Eye Drops — a redness-reducing solution made with brimonidine tartrate to whiten and brighten your eyes for up to 8 hours, if that's something you're looking to do. They're a bit more expensive than traditional eye drops, but tons of reviewers swear by them, with many saying they work reliably well. A hemorrhoid cream made with lidocaine so you can get some numbing relief when the back door is in need of a little TLC. It'll also help constrict blood vessels to ease swelling while coating your skin with a hydrating, protective barrier. Also, I'm extremely delighted to tell you there are no before-and-after pics on Amazon for this one!! A piercing bump solution formulated with jojoba, grape seed, and rose to potentially 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. 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 cervical neck "pillow" with a super catchy slogan: "10 minutes a day, keep neck pain away!" It features six massage nodes to help relieve pressure in your neck, and a U-shaped curvature to help support and align your spine. An alcohol-free Therabreath oral rinse because that seasonal post-nasal drip is causing some serious dry mouth issues, which is, in turn, leading to bad breath. It's truly a vicious cycle. Thankfully, this is designed to work for a whopping 12 hours — so you can basically be protected from stanky breath for 24 hours if used twice a day! Reviewers love this formula since it doesn't burn on contact and actually lasts throughout the day. A stainless-steel tongue cleaner so you can scrape away all the nastiness in your mouth that's been giving you a case of morning breath. The two-handled design makes this super easy too maneuver, and reviewers say it works way better than plastic scrapers. 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 migraine relief cap you'll love so much you might just Google, "Can I marry an inanimate object?" You can throw it in the freezer or microwave for both hot and cold treatments, and you can also wear it as a sleep mask so you can enjoy some sweet overnight relief. Or WellPatch migraine/headache patches — they stick directly to your forehead to help provide some soothing comfort when you feel a headache coming on, or if you just need a little refresh on a super long day. You don't even need to keep these in the freezer — just remove them from the pouch and stick them on! A Lume acidified body wash that's designed to help control odor for a whopping 24 hours! That $3.75 shower gel you've been loyal to since high school simply can't do that. It's also formulated with mandelic acid to help brighten hyperpigmentation with continued use. And yes, it's safe to use on sensitive areas! And the wildly popular Lume whole-body deodorant cream reviewers swear by for staying fresh in grueling temperatures. Though it won't stop the sweat, it will keep your pits, underboobs, belly button, and more odor free for up to 72 hours — that's a full three days of ~stank~ protection! A pack of SweatBlock wipes — this 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. A pack of Dr. Frederick's Original blister bandages for all my fellow blister-prone people who refuse to let their sensitive feet stop them from rocking new shoes on vacation. These are designed to be water-resistant, stay in place all day, and provide extra padding to help relieve pain. Undersummers anti-chafing shorts to protect your thighs from friction when you wear your fave dresses and skirts — because nothing ruins a perfect summer day like realizing your thighs are gonna pay the price. And don't worry, these are super stretchy and moisture-wicking, so you won't have to sacrifice comfort to keep the chafe at bay. Or! 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. 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 Powder that's not only silky smooth but also absorbs sweat 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. A box of gas relief pills for when Taco Bell night turns into "why do I do this to myself?!" night. This is the maximum strength version, meaning it'll get to work fast to relieve the rumbles and aches that are threatening to ruin your entire night. And some anti-diarrhea medication — you'll need on those days where your brain goes, "I know ice cream gives me diarrhea, but will it give me diarrhea today???" The answer is always yes, so go ahead and have these on standby. CeraVe's Renewing Salicylic Acid Cleanser so you can banish the acne that's popping up like sunflowers 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 highly absorbent sweat liners — now your fave hat won't be drenched at the end of your afternoon walk. Just peel off the adhesive backing, place it inside your hat above the rim, then rest assured that your eyes are protected from sweat and your hat is protected from nasty odors. And 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. Or "Fresh Breasts" lotion — a quick-drying cream that dries down to a powder that'll help mop up all the excess sweat and moisture that's threatening to put a damper — emphasis on the damp — on the hike you were looking forward to all week. It'll also provide some anti-chafe protection so you can comfortably rock those jean shorts that have been calling to you for weeks now. The super popular Bug Bite Thing, which uses the simple power of suction to alleviate the post-bite itching and swelling from the adorable but vicious bumblebee that attacked you while you were distracted by an equally cute butterfly that landed on a sunflower (I think they may have been working together). It works on everything from mosquito bites to wasp stings, so you'll probably want this in your pocket any time you leave the house this summer. A bottle of earwax removal drops that use fizzy microfoam action to break down all the stubborn wax that's been clogging up your ear. Just apply five to 10 drops to your ear, keep your head tilted for several minutes to let the carbamide peroxide loosen your hardened earwax, then flush away any remaining wax with warm water in a bulb or syringe. A wildly popular anti-dandruff shampoo — it uses ketoconazole 1% to help fight dandruff and relieve itchy scalps. Several of the 76,000 rave reviews mention seeing a reduction in scalp flakiness when consistently used at least twice a week. A butt acne-clearing lotion with tea tree oil and 2% salicylic acid 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.

It's made with ~FreshSense~ fabric to lock in any odors and keep wetness from leaking through. A sinus rinse bottle, because your nostrils could be the setting for Osmosis Jones 2 with all the annoying allergens that are taking up residence in there. The squeeze bottle design lets you control the flow and pressure of the water, meaning the days of awkwardly tipping your head with a traditional Neti Pot are over. Imagine coming home and rinsing away all the gunk in your nose after a day at the botanical garden. Heaven. And a saline nasal gel to help relieve 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 soothe dry nasal passages, 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 nail renewal formula that'll 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. And a toenail brace to easily straighten and fix any ingrown nails — because those bad boys hurt. Plus, sandal season is in full swing, so it's time to let your nails shine in the spotlight! All you have to do is clean and file the affected nail, adhere the brace with the included adhesive, and you may start to see results within a week. Truremedy Naturals Remedy Tea Tree Oil body wash that can help tackle body and foot odor, and may even help clear up some rashes and body acne 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 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!).

Deep in the Amazon, the Gospel Arrives by Boat

LIVRAMENTO, Brazil—Spirits were high as the double-decker Missionary chugged down the Negro River, carrying some 30 Brazilian evangelicals home after a weeklong expedition deep into the Amazon. The missionaries said they aren't only doing God's work here—they are advancing the government's, too. Every month, Brazilian and U.S. churches send hundreds of evangelical pastors, doctors and dentists upriver to provide health services to the poor, converting fishermen and indigenous people along the way.
