A teeth-whitening pen that'll be a heck of a lot quicker (and taste a lot better) than those irritating whitening strips that slip and slide all over your teeth. You can use each pen ~20 times and should expect your teeth to lighten four to eight shades.
A beloved tightening cream because the 39,000+ reviewers who rated it 5 stars is all the proof you need. It's infused with caffeine, coconut oil, and guarana extract to firm, smooth, and add shimmer to the skin. Plus, the vanilla, salted caramel, and pistachio scent is better than any perfume out there.
A pair of compression gloves for giving your joints a comforting (and breathable!) bear hug throughout the day that may help relieve pain caused by arthritis, carpal tunnel, and tendonitis.
A pair of moisture-wicking compression socks if you're going on a long-haul flight or preparing for a long road trip. They apply pressure to your legs and feet to help with circulation issues and swollen legs/feet — two common symptoms of sitting for long periods of time.
A bleach-free, no-scrub weekly shower spray so soap scum and shower grime buildup goes bye-bye without anyone ever having to bend down or wipe. Rinse it clean the next day, and you'll be amazed to see those hard water stains on your shower door are *poof* gone.
A pair of specially designed Wrist Buddy contoured yoga blocks to help you hold a pose or plank with less pressure on your wrist, which may cause less pain and allow you to grip the block better.
A Verb hair oil that'll gift your hair with a weightless blend of moringa seed oil, bamboo extract, and argan oil that simultaneously moisturizes, strengthens, and adds shine while leaving behind a light, fresh scent (because no one needs to know this is third-day hair).
A standing weeder because the worst part of gardening is kneeling for hours plucking weeds. My back hurts just thinking about it! Thankfully, this tool has three steel claws that grip weeds and roots so you can pull them out while standing.
A breast pillow for those who want a little bit more support at night. This is especially great for side sleepers and according to reviewers, those who are pregnant or healing post-surgery too.
A facial hair trimmer if you're tired of plucking your unibrow or mustache and would rather reach for an electric option that's painless and fast.
Or a pack of Schick dermaplaning razors so you can evict stray hairs and gently exfoliate. These itty bitty razors are great for stashing in your purse for touch-ups on the go.
A nail concealer to subtly hide yellowing and staining on your nails.
A grape cutter that'll give you peace of mind and soooo much time back now that you don't need to quarter grapes for your grandkid by hand. Reviewers rave that it's also quite a timesaver when used to slice olives and grape/cherry tomatoes.
And for your larger chopping needs, a reviewer-beloved veggie chopper because you've got pounds of produce in your fridge just waiting to be prepped for dinner and absolutely zero desire to spend more than five minutes chopping it all. No more tears because the recipe calls for diced onions!
A moisturizing hair treatment for a quick burst of hydration. In just eight seconds — eight! — it starts working to leave your mane feeling silkier, softer, and smoother after washing.
K18, a leave-in reparative treatment if you put your hair through the wringer. It's fan-flipping-tastic at restoring moisture and softness in your strands if you frequently bleach or chemically treat your hair or if you use heat-styling tools often.
A pair of open-toed sandals so vacations and even just trips to the grocery store are a pain-free affair. You've lived long enough to know that if it doesn't have arch support, you don't want it!
A set of kegel weights to not only help with incontinence but also potentially make sex easier, less painful, and more enjoyable. These are especially great for people who've just given birth, though anyone can benefit from strengthening their pelvic floor muscles.
A "flossing toothbrush" with two types of bristles: flossing bristles that are 10 times thinner for really getting into the grooves between your teeth and regular firm bristles that are designed to last longer than the nylon bristles your current toothbrush probably has. Reviewers say it's gentle yet effective, even on sensitive teeth!
A pair of super-soft, ultra-stretchy, and oh-so-cozy Levi's pull-on skinny jeans because some days you want the look of real denim but not the constricting feel.
A bottle of professional-grade callus-removing gel for dissolving hard, dead skin in literal minutes. (Seriously, reviewers say you should only let it sit for two to three minutes!) Then, give it a good scrub with a foot file, and your heels will be baby-bottom smooth.
Embryolisse, a cult-favorite French moisturizing cream, if you love getting your money's worth. It's designed to hydrate, protect, soothe, and nourish your skin. (It's been with you after all these years, so give it the pampering it deserves.) Makeup artists also use it as a primer, so consider this a 2-for-1 value purchase.
An anti-humidity spray so you can give humidity a metaphorical middle finger. This spray creates a waterproof coat around your hair that blocks out moisture (which eventually leads to frizziness). As if that wasn't already magical enough, this effect lasts up to 72 hours or through two to three shampoos!
A discreet gnat trap to nab all the flying pests that are currently invading your kitchen without advertising to every house guest that, yes, you do indeed have a fruit fly infestation.
Some washing machine cleaning tablets that'll clean and freshen the inside while dissolving residue because you keep your washing machine open when it's not in use, yet it still smells moldy. What gives?
A tub of brightening, firming, and rejuvenating eye cream because puffy under-eyes can strike at any age!
A set of earplugs for two very stressful experiences that are oh so common (and so annoying!) when flying: harsh noises and your ears popping. Inside these funny-shaped blue earplugs is a small ceramic filter designed to slow the shift in air pressure so there's less stress on the eardrum. They'll also help drown out the sounds of loud talkers, babies crying, and your seat neighbor refusing to wear headphones while they watch a TV show on their phone.
A mattress lifter if you're sick of straining your back, propping your mattress awkwardly on your knee or shoulder, or calling in backup when it's time to make the bed. This tool will elevate your very heavy mattress so you can more easily tuck in the sheets.
A set of two cooling pillows so you don't make any hot-headed decisions...like *not* buying them. Inside is a plush gel fiber that provides the ideal level of support to back, stomach, and side sleepers. And they're machine washable as well as stain- and fade-resistant.
A Trtl travel pillow to cushion your neck and keep it upright — which is the best position to prevent neck pain. Plus, your neighbors will silently thank you because it means you're not flopping your head from side to side and onto their shoulders.

Woman Gets Message From Dog Walker—Realizes It Wasn't Meant for Her

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A dog walker was left red-faced after accidentally sending a text meant for her best friend to the pup's owner instead. Her reaction has delighted social media users. In a viral Reddit post shared on Thursday under the username u/camlaw63, the poster, who has asked to remain anonymous, explained that the walker was commenting on her choice of collar for the pup with her friend, when she accidentally texted her, without even realizing her mistake. "My new dog walker was texting about me behind my back, I didn't mind," she writes in the caption, as she shares the text she received from the walker, with a picture of her pup, 13-years-old Monty, attached to it. "Buddy is very proud of his pride collar! The mom rotates collar monthly, and when I complimented June, she goes 'ugh it really should be a pride collar,' so today I complimented his pride collar, she goes 'thanks it's embarrassing that he hasn't had one before this, we have a flag at the office downstairs!' "Haven't established her orientation but she comes off as an enthusiastic ally lol." A screenshot of the message the walker accidentally sent the dog's owner. A screenshot of the message the walker accidentally sent the dog's owner. u/camlaw63 The poster told Newsweek that she switches her pup's collars monthly to represent what's going on each month, a snowflake in January, hearts in February, Christmas in December, and so on. "I had originally put his June collar on which had petunias on it. When my dog walker complemented the collar earlier this week, it clicked in my mind that I should have a Pride collar for June, and was a little bummed that I didn't have one," she said. "I have many friends and family in the LBGTQ+ community, But honestly, it didn't occur to me that I'd be able to find a pride dog collar. I did find one on Amazon and was able to purchase it fairly quickly, and when my Dog Walker came in to take Monty for his walk on Wednesday, she complimented him on it." The mistake made by the walker left her "mortified," according to the post, but the dog owner wasn't bothered by it at all. "I appreciated the fact that she was conveying her belief that I am an enthusiastic ally, and that it was meaningful to her because she is a member of the queer community," she said. "She was obviously embarrassed that she had sent the text to the wrong person, I assured her that it touched me and that I was most certainly and an enthusiastic ally of the LBGTQ+community, in addition to other marginalized groups, despite being a white, cis woman." About 40 percent of Americans admit to not walking their dogs regularly, which besides physical struggles, can also cause behavioral issues. To avoid these issues, many owners who don't have time to take their pups out hire walkers. The U.S. dog walking industry had a market revenue of $1.3 billion in 2023, up from $980 million in 2020. While specific needs vary by size and breed, most dogs need a minimum of 20 to 30 minutes of exercise per day, to avoid developing health issues, like obesity, which in pets is associated with cardiovascular disease, liver disease, osteoarthritis, and insulin resistance. The video quickly went viral on Reddit and it has so far received over 10,000 upvotes and 106 comments on the platform. One user, Timendainum, commented: "My wife puts a different bow tie on our male dog each month. He has a pride bow tie for June." Ninjaclumso_x said: "Accidental Text ...on purpose." Hungry-Breadfruit-61 added: "I'm a pet sitter and I'd have crawled into a hole and never come out if this happened to me lol." Do you have funny and adorable videos or pictures of your pet you want to share? Send them to life@ with some details about your best friend and they could appear in our Pet of the Week lineup.

Look: Cat lost for three years turns up at McDonald's 10 miles from home

May 7 (UPI) -- A Michigan woman whose cat disappeared in 2022 was reunited with her beloved pet when he turned up three years later outside a McDonald's 10 miles from home. Ella Bennett said Buddy, her indoor-outdoor cat, failed to come home one day in 2022. "We kept hoping he would be back, but then it was a couple days too long than usual, so that's when we started to get worried," Bennett told WXYZ-TV. Bennett said it wasn't until three years later that she was scrolling Facebook and came across a post from the Lenawee County Humane Society. The post included photos of a cat the shelter had named Snack Wrap after being found with matted fur outside of a McDonald's in Adrian, about 10 miles from Bennett's home. "I immediately sent it to my grandma, I was like, 'That looks just like Buddy,' and I posted a picture of him on there, and I was like, 'Do you think that could be him?'" Bennett said. The shelter was able to confirm Snack Wrap and Buddy were one and the same by reviewing veterinary records, old photos and the feline's reaction to being reunited with Bennett. Bennett said Buddy will likely still be allowed outside, but now he's microchipped. "Thanks to the power of social media and a community that always comes together, Snack Wrap (aka Buddy) is BACK HOME with his family, exactly where he belongs," the Lenawee County Humane Society said on social media.
