Delaware County sees 26% growth in tourism revenue
GROVE, Okla. — State and local authorities are taking a close look at tourism in Delaware County. Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department Executive Director Sterling Zearley says tourism is the third largest industry in Oklahoma – accounting for $12.3 billion in revenue. In Delaware County, it accounts for 205 million in direct spending each year and that number has been growing up 26 percent in the most recent data. Because of that, the Grove Area Chamber of Commerce hosted a State of the Region Forum Friday morning, giving stakeholders a chance to network and plan for further growth. Miami Public Library Receives Literacy to support summer reading programs Miami receives fifth letter of support in flooding issues with GRDA American Heritage Music Festival returns to Grove GRDA opens registration for fall controlled hunts in Ottawa County Miami hosts reception for newest city employees 'We see it here, I mean, if you're in Grove on Thursday or Friday with fishing tournaments and folks coming in for recreation, we always say you learn really quick how to take the back roads in Grove, because there's so many visitors here, so it's an exciting thing for our region,' said Amanda Davis, Grove Area Chamber of Commerce President. 'We have several different activities coming up in the next several years. We have our centennial for Route 66 in 2026, which Oklahoma has 400 miles of Route 66, the most of any other state,' said Sterling Zearley, Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Dept. Executive Director. Another potential big draw for the Sooner State, the 2028 Summer Olympics. While Los Angeles is the host city for the games, Oklahoma City will be the host site for the canoe slalom and softball competitions. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

The paper flames are cute but fairly tiny for notes, but they would do the trick if necessary. In these post-pandemic times, I use the side without the flame paper to hold some travel sanitizer bottles. I really like that the dumpster lids can open and close." — jigglypuff Get it from Amazon for $13.71 (available in two other styles). 15.

You will not be disappointed with this item." — redhead Get a set of three from Amazon for $9.99 (available in six colors). 27. And a customizable felt tile mosaic for a renter-friendly way to add some colorful pizzazz to your plain white walls while dampening sounds at the same time. They're made from recycled water bottles (win for the planet!) and can even double as a too-cute pin board for photos and keepsakes. Felt Right is a small biz transforming single-use plastic water bottles into felt tiles that look great and dampen sound. BuzzFeed Shopping writer Taylor Steele picked these for her home: "I chose a simple design because I know myself, and anything with several angles to contend with will make my brain hurt. But I love my felted wall! It adds much-needed color and texture to my living space. What was once a dull beige wall is now a colorful mosaic! And it's super easy to install, too. Though having a friend around to help you put adhesive tabs on the backs of each felt tile is great, too." Get it from Felt Right starting at $44.66+ (available in dozens of shapes/styles).

Providing Clean, Safe Water to Communities in India
Written by Amanda Davis | Sr. Manager, CR and Environment Gen Blog | People & Impact For eight years, we have partnered with Planet Water Foundation to help bring clean water to India's rural population. Employee volunteers from our office in Pune have joined Planet Water staff each year on World Water Day to build AquaTowers in rural schools, not only expanding access to safe water for drinking and sanitation but also providing hygiene education for the wider community. These efforts are part of our company-wide culture of giving, which empowers our teams to use their skills, time and passions to make an impact in their local communities. Confronting India's growing water scarcity crisis is important to our team members in India. The Ministry of Water Resources found that the country's average water availability per capita qualifies the region as 'water-stressed,' and even in communities that have regular access to water, it isn't always safe to drink. Yale University's 2024 Unsafe Drinking Water Index ranked India 144th out of 180 countries, placing people of all ages at greater risk of waterborne diseases that can cause health problems, financial hardship due to missed work and gaps in education due to missed school. At Gen, we're doing our part to change that. Since the start of our partnership with Planet Water, our work has: Bringing Clean Water to Our Communities Rural regions in India are at an increased risk of water scarcity. Villagers must travel long distances to collect water from far-away access points, a responsibility that often falls on women and children. Planet Water's AquaTower installations significantly reduce that burden, bringing water access to the center of the community. The AquaTower is a water filtration system capable of producing 1,000 liters (~265 gallons) of clean drinking water per hour and functions as a handwashing station for students. The system is also open to the wider community, expanding access to health and hygiene resources. This year's build took place on March 26 at the ZPPS Valti school in Pune, which serves 116 elementary and middle-grade students in a rural community of 3,000 people. Eleven volunteers from our office in Pune joined the effort this year, further demonstrating our commitment to supporting the communities where we work and live. 'The families in our village get water from the well even if it is not safe for drinking,' said Santoshi Purushottam Sutar, a teacher at the ZPPS Valti school. 'Now, we would not worry anymore about where to get clean water for our students because Gen built an AquaTower in our school.' Improving Hygiene Community-Wide When clean water is scarce, residents are forced to drink contaminated water, which can carry diseases and lead to frequent illness. Students and their families who are sick often miss school and work and incur higher healthcare costs. The AquaTower not only reduces the spread of disease but also helps students attend school more regularly, supporting the overall growth of the community. This year's project is one of dozens of similar initiatives Planet Water organized for this year's World Water Day, all in support of progress toward the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6 of achieving water and sanitation for all by 2030. The organization has reached more than 4.5 million people in 31 countries since 2009. Our work with Planet Water Foundation is part of our efforts to manage our environmental impacts and empower our employees to care for the environment. You can read more about our environmental stewardship efforts in our Social Impact Report. This grant was awarded from the Gen Foundation, a corporate advised fund of Silicon Valley Community Foundation. Visit 3BL Media to see more multimedia and stories from Gen Digital Inc.

Shopping · You are going to be so very smug when you see your leggings and purses hung up on these clever closet organizers. 1. A set of legging organizing hangers for anyone who owns approximately [number redacted] pairs that are currently tangled in a dresser drawer like a giant athleisure nest.

Check out a TikTok of the legging organizer hanger in action. Promising review:"Yes...I have too many clothes. I LOVE my leggings. These saved me soooo much room! Now I have much more space, AND I can see them all easier." — Larry Seymour Get a pack of two from Amazon for $15.99. 2.

Safe me so much time layering all the necklaces I have. Literally takes one second to put on!" — Nichole Li Get it from Amazon for $15.98+ (available in gold, rose gold, and silver, and with two or three clasps). 3. An hanging purse organizer that will not only hold all your bags, but will ROTATE 360 degrees around, so you can put on a lil' fashion show for them every day. The 83 tote bags on my closet floor are shaking. Promising review:"I have recently gotten more and more purses and needed a way to organize them better and this was a great solution. It is easy to take purses on and off, and it looks cute in my closet too. The hanger is very sturdy, and it is lightweight when empty. I like that I can see all my purses in one place, and the hanger will turn a little as well so you can easily grab which one you want. It added great organization and better functionality to my closet." — Emma Stokes Get a two-pack from Amazon for $13.99 (available in four colors and multipacks). 4. An adorably encouraging daily planner you can fill out throughout the course of each day to keep yourself on track for all your calls, goals, and even your water intake.

Each planner comes with 50 tear-off sheets the size of a standard piece of paper. Bliss Collections is a family-owned, Wisconsin-based business established in 2012 that specializes in stationery, planners and pads, and drinkware. Promising review:"These daily planning sheets keep this mama on TRACK! I started out printing daily planning and schedule sheets from a free download on my computer.

I've already reordered once and will continue to use these." — Shannon Hoglund Get it from Amazon for $5.99+ (available in four styles). 5. A set of two traceless adhesive shelves for your bathroom or kitchen that *don't* require any drilling or complicated installation other than sticking it straight to the wall. A chic and easy home fix?? Ugh, we lazy folks love to see it. Promising review:"I saw this on TikTok and had to try it. I love it. I have one in the shower and the other on the bathroom wall holding all the stuff normally on the sink. 10/10 recommend." — Sonia Get it from Amazon for $30.49+ (available in four colors). 6. A set of feather-light, super durable compression packing cubes you can use to significantly decrease the bulk of your clothing to save space on trips. This particular set is a cut above the others because it comes with a mesh outside that allows you to see what's in each bag without popping them all open to find something. Pro-tip: When you use compression packing cubes, it's more effective to lay them flat than to roll them! It helps with the compression (and keeps your clothes from getting too wrinkled). Promising review: "These packing cubes helped to keep my clothing organized in my suitcase. They compressed my items and gave me a little more room in suitcase. They are mesh construction so you can see what is inside. Easy zippers. Expandable. Sturdy." — Mary Get a set of six from Amazon for $26.99 (available in four colors). 7. Or a portable hanging luggage organizer for the ultimate lazy unpacker hack — all you have to do is pack your clothes in this, fold it into your suitcase, and then magically unfurl it in a hotel closet for access to all your stuff. Guess who's going to be the first one to the hotel pool after check in??? (You. It's you.) Bonus: This works with your existing suitcase, unlike versions of this that come pre-built into more expensive versions! Promising review:"I was able to pack seven outfits and have way more space in this organizer. I just packed the clothes in the organizer, closed it up, and placed it in my carry on. Once I got to the hotel, I just hung it in my closet. It would be perfect for cruises since their is never any drawer space and very little room to move around." — jess Get it from Amazon for $27.89+ (available in eight colors and several sets). 8. A hanging tool organizer for all those odds and ends you perilously shoved into your closet, hoping for the best. Free up all that space on the ground and let those cleaning supplies hover on the wall or the inside of a closet door instead!

This allows us to keep our cleaning instruments in the house while saving space." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $16.97+ (available in four sizes and in five colors). 9. A cabinet door organizer so you can really flex some "I've got my life together" vibes when you open a cabinet and pull out the aluminum foil without pulling eight of its friends out with it. Promising review:"This organizer is so useful! I recently moved and ended up with a much smaller kitchen, so I've been doing everything I can to make sure there's a place for everything and no wasted space. Luckily, I have pretty wide cabinets, so this works out perfectly. I have one holding my cutting boards (four standard plastic boards) and another holding my foil, cling wrap, and parchment paper boxes. The organizer is super easy to assemble and it's completely versatile. Hang it over the cabinet door or attach it to the wall/cabinet door, which means it's great for renters and owners." — Kerry Get it from Amazon for $17.97. 10. A purse organizer insert for anyone who is committed to the ~tote bag~ lifestyle, but doesn't love digging through them like a feral raccoon. Another perk? If you're switching out your purse, all you have to do is slide the organizer out and pop it in with all your stuff raring to go. Bonus: This also stops the inside liner of your purse from getting dirty if anything happens to explode (been there, cleaned the Panera butter packet out of that). Promising review: "Lightweight but sturdy, never collapsed in the bag. Perfectly fit in my tote. Red color makes it a lot easier to find my stuff.

No more jamming the messy drawer shut and praying it stays that way, y'all! Here's what BuzzFeeder Chelsea Stuart has to say about it:"I bought this about a year ago and I'm a little embarrassed about how often I think about it. For the first week we owned it, my boyfriend and I both commented daily on what a smart design it is, how much room it freed up in our drawer, and how we wished we knew about it sooner. If you — like me — are at that stage in your late 20s where practical, problem-solving products put a ridiculously wide smile on your face, I'm sure you'll love it." Promising review: "New way to organize your silverware that has a sleek design. TikTok made me buy this! It's a perfect design to not have as much clutter in your drawer. Great for ADHD people to see exactly what silverware is in which slot with the tiny pictures indicating a knife, a spoon, a fork!" — Haley Lutz Get it from Amazon for $8.89. 12. Puppington's 3-in-1 Crossbody Bag that's the hot ticket item for dog owners — this chic bag functions as a purse, a treat dispenser, AND a poop bag dispenser, which will make you the most fashionable, functional pet owner on the block. Amazon This was featured on Oprah's Favorite Things for 2024 — check out more of Oprah's picks on Amazon's gift shop! Puppington is a small business that specializes in pet accessories. Promising review: "We are training our puppy, and I needed a fanny pack with a sizable and easy-to-clean treat pouch. It matches her collar that we have too. I can easily fit my phone (iPhone 14 pro), house keys, lip balm, hand sanitizer, and anything else I need to grab. The separate pocket for treats has a great, easily wipeable liner and fits DAYS worth of training treats. The dog poop bag holder is the best addition! High quality that doesn't feel like it's going to just fall apart." — Mallory Get it from Amazon for $47.99+ (available in nine colors). 13. A weekly pill organizer designed with push-through silicone lids to easily organize your pills at the beginning of the week, meaning you don't have to spend a bunch of time rooting through pill boxes and trying to remember the timing of them each morning.

The little slots to push in pills is fantastic and the containers are very large. It keeps my huge vitamin pills on either side and could fit over 10 large ones if needed. Love this thing. Worth the price and looks like it'll last forever. I do wish the magnets were stronger. They just keep them in place but will slide off if bumped. I assume this is helpful for people with arthritis. It's an easy fix. I take down one days worth of pills, set it on my counter and now I'm not too lazy to take my pills!" — Chicken McNugget Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (available in four colors). 14.

This little pill box is a great size, I love that it's magnetic and each little compartment fits a good amount of pills.

I also use it to hold my seasonal shoes, extra blankets, and yes, even more clothes! Since reordering, I now have six but I am only currently using four.

Airplane Pockets is a small business that specializes in sanitary, portable travel organization products. I used this on a roundtrip from NYC to Tokyo, both with connecting flights in Canada, and cannot sing its praises enough. It fit all four of the different tray tables I used it on and was so ridiculously handy for keeping track of all my littler odds and ends like AirPods, the plane's headphones, earplugs, a sleep mask, a book, gum, a scrunchie, and little snacks. The hanging end of it easily tucked into the built-in sleeve of the seat in front of me for takeoff and when other passengers needed to scoot past me in my aisle seat.

A hanging cosmetic bag whose motto is "No beauty product left behind!!" This clear-pocketed compact bag fans out so you have all your beloved makeup and skincare at your disposal, converting any hotel bathroom into home sweet home.

It fit a veritable arsenal of products — all of my skincare, makeup, hair supplies, toothbrush, toothpaste, and deodorant were wedged in the different pockets, and still compacted easily and went right into my carryon backpack. It made setting up at the hotel a two-second process of hanging it up and having all my products instantly accessible to me and easy to put away. I cannot imagine traveling without it, especially now that I've used it on a multi-city trip where it was so handy to fold back up and take through multiple hotels.

Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in two sizes and 11 colors). 28.

Promising review:"I finally got tired of searching for the right spices and began searching for a solution. My cabinet was overflowing. With this, I was able to fit all my spices on the racks, along with things in the middle and on the bottom. I relocated the bags that are not used but to fill the containers when empty to the shelf above so the majority of my bottles are visible! It was easy to put together and adjust the size. I love the finished organization!" — Lisa Get a set of two shelves from Amazon for $29.99 (also available with spices included). 29.

A car dashboard anti-slip pad designed to be sticky enough that nothing will ever slide off that surface again — I'm talking phones, GPS screens, baby mirrors, glasses, or even just cute little accessories to liven the place up. It's like having a lil' sticky trap for your stuff right in your car. Promising review: "A perfect catch-all! Purchased this for my son to put on his dashboard to catch things when he gets into his car — he tosses his wallet and and his phone up there. The product doesn't leave a sticky residue on anything and it's been in a hot car, and I have seen no significant wear down. Very durable very stable. Excellent value. I'm so happy with the performance and fit of this." — Sarah Get it from Amazon for $8.39+ (available in five styles). 32.

Simply pick up the roll of bags from their packaging and put them in the designated slot." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in three-, four-, or five-slot models). 33. An attachable elastic laptop accessory belt you'll especially love if you work remotely or freelance — instead of rooting around your bag to find all your supplies every time you post up somewhere, you'll have them sitting pretty on top of your laptop.

Check out a TikTok of the laptop belt in action. Promising review: "This product is a lifesaver for a teacher on the go. I use it for my iPad Pro and my school issued laptop.

Very user-friendly, and the app is easy to navigate. Can transcribe and summarize meeting notes in a couple of minutes and allows you to choose what layout (meeting notes, transcript, mind map) you would like. Allows you to edit notes if needed and replay the meeting. This handy device can record phone calls. Just place it in the holder and attach to your phone, and switch the button to the phone option for those on-the-go phone conferences.

We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. Shopping · "When I say my jaw dropped, it was literally like...😱. All the dead skin just slid off like nothing." —a reviewer who bought the popular exfoliating mitt 1. A teeth whitening pen so your pearly whites can be... pearly and white. This easy-to-use pen brushes on the whitening gel so you don't have to deal with annoying whitening strips. With consistent daily use, you won't be able to help but smile at the results. Promising review:"I have to say, I was skeptical about this product from all the TikTok craze about it but after trying it out, it really does work. I've used whitening strips before but those usually hurt my sensitive teeth and I hate the taste of some of the other gels on the market but this one was super easy and didn't hurt my teeth at all and didn't taste much different than my regular toothpaste, since I got the mint flavored one. I used it for a few weeks before my brother's wedding and it worked like a charm. I noticed visible results in only a couple of days and was able to keep using it until I reached my desired shade of white. 10/10 would recommend for anyone with sensitive teeth and tastes!" — Victoria Bravo Get it from Amazon for $9.95+ (available individually and up to a pack of four). 2. Mighty Patches — you can stick one of these on top of a whitehead before bedtime and wake up to a smoother and less noticeable pimple just like that! It's super satisfying to see these hydrocolloid patches suck out all that gunk, and they blend in great if you want to wear them during the day! BuzzFeed Shopping editor Amanda Davis tried these and says:"I've tried various (countless 😅) pimple patches in the past and The Mighty Patch definitely takes the cake. I stick it on and honestly forget that it's even there. The adhesive is strong, so it stays on during my tossing and turning at night, but I often wear it during the day, too! I work from home, and it's not noticeable during my video calls which I truly, truly appreciate. I begin seeing the gunk from my zits after 2–3 hours of having it covered, but I leave it on for at least the full six. When it's removed, it's like the healing time was sped up and what would've taken a couple of days took just HOURS." Be sure to read the full Mighty Pimple Patch review for more deets! Promising review:"These little patches are a miracle worker. When I feel a pimple coming on, I slap one of these on and leave it on overnight and the next day it's gone before it's even started. Also have used them on full-blown breakouts and it shortens the healing time. A must-have." — Chris C. Get a 36-pack from Amazon for $12.99. 3. K-cup cleaning pods to make you go, "So that's why my coffee tasted like that?!" You simply put one in your coffee machine and run it like normal to help get rid of any leftover residue and old coffee grounds. It makes cleaning so much easier and can increase the lifespan of your morning bestie (aka your Keurig). Promising review:"OK, so these cleaner pods are awesome! I didn't know how gross our Keurig was until today. The big mason jar on the left is when I actually ran the cleaner through plus one rinse cycle. The middle one is another rinse cycle and the last one, on the right, is the last one I did. So yes, I would suggest running two or three rinse cycles instead of the recommended one. But it's still an awesome product for the price! I have a 2.0 and I had no issues." — Mads0421 Get a pack of six from Amazon for $9.95 (also available in packs of 12 or 18). 4. An exfoliating mitt you'll be able to see immediate results with, because dead skin will just clump up and roll right off your arms and legs. Reviewers have said that this helps with keratosis pilaris (those annoying red little bumps) and is a miracle for getting smoother skin. Promising review:"I used loofah, exfoliating gloves, scrubs, and lotions for years. I still battle with a little bit of KP. I bought these gloves. They work so well. So much dead skin came off and immediately got rid of the KP. Believe the photos. Y ou will not believe the amount of dead skin that comes off. You will have soft healthy skin. This is a must buy." — YogaGirl Promising review: "When I say my jaw dropped it was literally like..😱 all the dead skin just slid off like nothing. It is very satisfying watching all the build up come off." — Rockyy Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in a pack of two). 5. Catrice "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener — prepare to be shook at how seamlessly this lightweight formula blends into the skin. Plus, it's got hyaluronic acid and shea butter for ultra hydration. You might not have gotten the full eight hours of sleep you wanted... but at least you can fool everyone into thinking that you did! The color adaptive formula is designed so one of four shades will work on any skin tone. Promising review: "I don't like to wear a ton of makeup, so this is a game changer! I have hereditary under-eye bags. This goes on so easily and you only need a little dab and it makes a world of difference! Brighter eyes, and doesn't sit in creases. AND it's cheap!! Can't get much better than that! Must have!" — Cassie Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in four shades). 6. A genius veggie chopper that'll make you want to have a full-on audience when it comes time to prep all your ingredients for dinner. Now, tedious food prep has turned into simple seconds of fun worthy of some "oohs" and "ahhs." This kitchen gadget is just ~that girl~. This comes with different blade attachments and cleaning brushes. Plus, it's dishwasher safe so cleanup will be a breeze! Check out a TikTok of the veggie chopper in action. Promising review:"This is one of my absolute favorite kitchen tools! This is right up there with my stand mixer. I save hours a week using this for dinner prep. I HATE cutting up veggies for dinner and this makes it fast and fun! I can't believe I didn't buy one years ago. This is worth every penny. Easy to use and I can just throw it in my dishwasher for clean up. I'm obsessed. I will be buying these as gifts. This is an absolute must-have for everyone." — Reviewer Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in four colors and four sizes). 7. A life-saving ChomChom pet hair remover roller to make you say, "WOW, that wasn't so hard after all." No need to be wasteful or waste money with those sticky adhesive papers because this roller can be used over and over again. All you need to do is just roll, watch the fur disappear, and easily empty it all out for a super fast cleanup! Promising review: "I have a golden retriever and the shedding is out of control. My fabric sofa is constantly covered in hair and I finally decided to try this after reading an article about popular TikTok products. The reviews do not lie, this thing works magic!! I wish I had taken a before and after picture because the difference is noticeable. I watched the video tutorial before I tried it to ensure I was using it properly and everything he says is true, you do really have to put your arm to work with vigorous back and forth movement! However, I find it's a great arm workout and it works wonders." — Joanne Ertel Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in two colors). 8. Cosrx Snail Mucin 96% Power Repairing Essence will have your mind ~blown~ because it's got snail slime in its list of ingredients and because of how well this helps repair dark spots, reduces dullness, and rejuvenates damaged skin. Truly a "don't knock it 'til you try it" product. This highly concentrated formula contains 96.3% snail secretion filtrate, which helps repair damage while moisturizing your skin. Promising reviews: " Totally worth the hype! I just started getting forehead wrinkles, and after starting to use this and simply vital collagen retinol and hyaluronic face cream, they have reduced dramatically. My skin texture improved, especially on my forehead, where I have had some other skin issues as well. Now, my skin is super soft and smooth. Will 100% be buying again." — reviewer2 Get it from Amazon for $18.95. 9. A tub of The Pink Stuff — it'll work wonders to remove dirt, oil, grime, rust, and stains from pretty much any surface. You'll be surprised that the ingredient list doesn't just say "magic" since it brings your things (stoves, pans, sinks, etc.) back to life with little to no elbow grease required. Former BuzzFeed Shopping writer Britt Ross tried The Pink Stuff and says: "Upon moving to a new house, I discovered I'd inherited some not-so-well-maintained white bathroom tile, with white grout to match. At least, the grout had been white at one point. Woof. After having heard nothing but raves about The Pink Stuff, I decided to see how well it would work on what has probably been my most trying cleaning task to date. Well, I'm happy to report that after a bit of light scrubbing, The Pink Stuff was able to lift most of the muck off of the grout, revealing a much lighter surface underneath (GIF for proof!). While I think it might take a few more applications for the grout to *dazzle,* I'm super impressed by the difference I was able to see right away, and with not very much elbow grease to boot. I mean, it is white grout, so if it was able to work wonders on that, I can't wait to see what it does for my crusty pots and pans!" Promising review: "What can I say? I love this product. My daughter drew a happy face in the bathtub (with permanent marker). I tried removing it with everything I could think of, but nothing worked. With this paste, it was gone within less than a minute. I immediately tried it on my stove — omg, I'm in love. It's a purchase I don't regret at all. Will be buying it again. This stuff has helped me remove stains that I wasn't able to clean with anything." — Happy customer 10. Eos' Shea Butter Vanilla Cashmere body lotion that is so popular you'll be grateful you can snag it on Amazon, because otherwise, you'd probably be battling someone in the body lotion aisle for the last bottle. Reviewers love how this leaves your skin feeling smooth *and* smelling good. Promising review: "Heaven sent for your skin; heavenly scent to enjoy. This feels absolutely amazing going on. Gets absorbed quickly for a lotion rich with oil. Doesn't leave a greasy feeling, as long as you give it a minute or two to fully absorb. The scent is, for me anyway, like aromatherapy. It smells like an iced sugar cookie, and is a great base layer for fragrance. Very relaxing." — Dragonheart Jo Get it from Amazon for $8.98 (available in various scents and in packs of two). 11. A fast-acting, refillable plug-in fly trap ready to catch all those little flying buggers that live in your house rent-free (so rude!). You'll be amazed and possibly disgusted at how many little bugs this thing can catch. AND the sticky cartridges are easily replaceable, so you can avoid touching the bugs altogether. Check out a TikTok of the plug-in fly trap in action. Promising review:"I can't say enough wonderful things about these handy little bug catchers! They are simple to use, cheap to refill, and catch a ton of small bugs and flies. I have eight of them now, all around my house! It's a little gross how many tiny flying insects are around…but it makes me feel a lot better now that I have these!" — Chris H. Get a two pack from Amazon for $19.35 (also available in a larger multipack) 12. Revlon Volcanic Face Roller made from actual volcanic stone to soak up the excess oil throughout the day. Unlike blotting papers, you can wash and reuse the roller, and it fits perfectly in your purse! It's also easy to clean: Just twist and unlock the roller's ring, gently pull out the stone part, wash the stone with a gentle cleanser, rinse it off, and let it air dry before using it again! Promising review:"I saw this featured on TikTok and decided to give it a try. It really does work! I have oily skin on my forehead, around my nose, and chin. One swipe in each of the areas and [the] oily, shininess was gone. A must-have in your purse." — Maria S. Get it from Amazon for $8.42. 13. A foot file that might just have you clicking your heels together because of how smooth it'll leave the bottom of your feet. You can use this on dry or wet skin — either way, you'll be amazed at the results! Promising review:"BEST THING EVER! It's a MUST-HAVE! I have the WORST dry heels. It doesn't matter if I wear socks all the time I always get dry heals. Bought this thinking it would work pretty average or similar to others I had used. I was sooo wrong. It is literally the most amazing product ever. It works SO WELL! Usually it takes me a good 15–20 minutes at least to achieve somewhat of a soft heal. Enter this, it took me five minutes tops. I've never had softer feet! It honestly works even better than going to get a pedicure professionally. Seriously so happy I found this." — Mickenzie Get it from Amazon for $9.99. 14. Or an internet-famous foot peel mask, which will probably make you feel like a snake shedding its skin, but oh boy will this do the trick to getting all that dead skin off your feet. Leave this on for an hour, and in the following days, you'll see dead skin fall right off. Promising review:"My poor feet have been extremely neglected ever since I was pregnant two years ago. This was the first time I really ever had very rough, hard heels and 'old' looking feet; they were so bad that I didn't even want to have a pedicure or wear sandals. Anyway, these foot peels were super easy to use and boy are they effective. It was the fourth day that my feet began to peel — very strange! Totally painless. The new skin coming through was very soft, like new. I would totally recommend. My sister and mother have requested their boxes." — Ally CHR Get a two-pack from Amazon for $15.95 (available in two scents and a three-pack and four-pack). 15. A pore-clearing cleansing oil, a K-beauty fan favorite because reviewers say it has the power to visibly remove those pesky blackheads! This is formulated with soothing heartleaf extract and is perfect for anyone looking to double cleanse. BTW, a lot of reviewers say they use this as part of their double cleansing routine. As the name implies, double cleansing is a method of cleansing your face twice: first with an oil-based cleanser, and again with a water-based cleanser to help get all the yucky stuff out of your pores. Promising review:"BEST OIL CLEANSER I SWEAR. I've gone through 3-4 bottles now and it continues to cleanse my skin AMAZING. It melts makeup, clears pores. Honestly a heaven-send. The first time I used it, it cleared a lot of my sebum and even now when I use it, it clears any dead skin and dirt I have, even when I don't wear makeup. BUY IT, it's amazing." — rexichor Get it from Amazon for $17.69. 16. A mold and mildew remover gel so you can actually enjoy your "me time" in the shower or tub without the nasty sight of gross black stuff growin' in your grout. Squeeze this on the affected area, leave it on for 6–8 hours, and wipe away to reveal a clean new surface! 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. Get it from Amazon for $14.99. 17. A "flossing" toothbrush because we all brush our teeth every day, but flossing... that's another story. Thankfully, these tiny bristles reach between your teeth, saving you from wrestling with the floss when it comes time to get all the way back where your molars are. Mouthwatchers is a small business established by Ronald Plotka, DDS, that specializes in antimicrobial toothbrushes designed to get deeper cleans even patients with "great" dental hygiene might miss with traditional brush and floss routines. BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord loves these: " I use an electric toothbrush usually, but I feel like I'm getting a much more satisfying clean from these?? Especially because I tend to get yellow stains between my teeth no matter *how* much I floss, and these bristles seem to actually target that a lot more effectively." Promising review: " I absolutely love this toothbrush!! TikTok made me buy it and I will never own anything else again. My teeth feel clean all day long like I went to the dentist but better. I even have a sonic toothbrush and this blows it out of the water. Don't hesitate…buy this for your teeth!" — Amy Get a pack of two from Amazon for $9.99. 18. And, a stainless-steel tongue scraper that will simultaneously get all that gunk off your tongue AND freshen up your breath. If you love satisfyingly gross results, you'll definitely want to add this to your oral hygiene routine! Dr. Tung's is a small biz that makes breath-improving dental products. Promising review:"I have gone 30 years of my life having the worst breath known to man. I would brush and brush, and within 20 minutes, I'd be back to the same. I never knew how to get rid of it. Then, I came upon this little item on Amazon. I decided to give it a try because I figured I've tried everything else. Wow, just, wow...I couldn't believe how much crap this thing was pulling off my tongue. Seriously, if you have suffered from bad breath, give this a try. You will not regret it." — Me Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (also available in multipacks). 19. A hairbrush cleaning tool so you can get rid of the excess hair, dander, and dead skin that accumulates on your brush. You don't want to brush your freshly washed hair with a dirty hair brush, do you? This little thing will surely give you some ~hair-raising~ before and after results. The reviewer above got such amazing results by using this tool and soaking their brush in a Dawn-and-diluted-vinegar solution! Promising review:"When I bought this I was really skeptical. I am grossed out by my hairbrush and clean it all the time. I've soaked it in vinegar and tea tree oil, used a toothbrush, scrubbed it with shampoo, picked it clean by hand — everything you can think of. Still, it's so hard to get the little lint that forms at the base of the brush — they don't dissolve off and you have to pick them off the bristles one by one because a toothbrush won't even break them up. This thing works amazingly. I don't know why, it just does — the particular texture of the bristles on this really grabs everything. It scraped the little lint rings right off and now my brush is cleaner, 10 times as fast." — HeartsofHavoc Get it from Amazon for $11.95. 20. A Wet & Forget weekly shower spray that you just apply, wait overnight, and rinse off the next day. The results will be so incredible that you'll be second-guessing whether a cleaning crew actually just snuck into your house... but NOPE. Just the magic of Wet & Forget! Promising review:"We cannot BEGIN to tell you what a lifesaver this is! We have two old fiberglass tubs with vinyl shower enclosures that no matter what amount of scrubbing we have done with everything from bleach to cleanser to vinegar and baking soda would NOT come clean. After I took my shower last night, I sprayed down the tub and walls. Within minutes, all the built-up water deposits and dirt and grime began to melt away in front of my eyes. I left it on overnight, and when I got up this morning, it did not look like the same tub and shower. This product is a godsend, especially for old folks like us who have difficulty getting down on our hands and knees and scrubbing anything. More importantly, it performs as advertised. We plan on using it as part of our weekly cleanup routine, in addition to purchasing the Wet and Forget Mold and Mildew Remover for use on the vinyl siding of our house. This is truly an overnight sensation!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $18.47+ (available in two scents, a refill size, and a two-pack). 21. Easy-to-use retainer cleaner tablets for anyone whose Invisalign, retainer, or mouth guard is looking anything but clear. Now why should you put a funky-smelling retainer in your mouth right after you just brushed your teeth for the night? Pop one of these into a glass of water and soak your mouthpiece for a cleaner, fresher taste! Promising review:"I really loved this product. I am currently waiting for a new Invisalign set. My old Invisalign needed to be cleaned. I read the reviews and decided to purchase. OMG it worked! There was a fresh taste and they were clean. I wish I had found this product sooner. I did let them soak overnight only because I had been wearing them for the last four months. Nothing happened to Invisalign; there was no weakness or anything. Just very clean and fresh. If I could have given the product 10 stars, I would have." — Lisa R. Get 120 tablets from Amazon for $21.81. 22. A pack of two flexible dryer vent cleaners to really get in there and clean out all that lint you never even knew was stuck below your lint trap. @LintTrap, you literally had one job.... 😫 but thankfully, this works wonders and helps your clothes fully dry. Using this can also help prevent dryer fires! Promising review:"I clean my dryer vent after every single use. I was shocked to see so much lint and dust come out! It was very simple to use and it really works! I kept one for myself and gave the other to my daughter." — Shari Schmidt Get a two pack from Amazon for $8.95. 23. The MakeUp Eraser, which lets you go from full beat to au naturel with no makeup remover solution required. Just add water, and your foundation, waterproof mascara, and lipstick will be gone in a flash! Plus, it's reusable and machine washable, making it an eco-friendly alternative to disposable makeup remover wipes. Promising review:"Amazing!! I can't live a day without it. I just hate washing it so much, that's the only con. But other than that, this thing is seriously MAGIC." — Ashley Mirabile Get it from Amazon for $20 (available in 16 colors). 24. A pumice cleaning stone so you can easily scratch away at those yucky stains without leaving behind scratch marks in the bowl. Those regular plastic bristles are no match for this strong yet gentle cleaner that makes your porcelain throne look brand stinkin' new (minus the literal stink). This pumice stone cleaner is *both* chemical-free and odorless. It has a sturdy plastic handle for a comfortable cleaning experience. Just use gentle back-and-forth motions to scrub away stains and deposits from inside the toilet bowl, and you're all set! Promising review:"Will definitely buy again. Almost 30 years of hard-water buildup of green, and I tried everything for years to remove the green stain. This product rocks. It takes a little elbow grease but sure is worth it. Just don't use it on surfaces that will scratch. In my case, the fiberglass tub aggravates and is hard to clean. After 30 years, I scrubbed away and didn't regret it one bit, and the tub looks almost new." — Debra L. Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (also available as a two-pack and four-pack). 25. A professional-strength grout cleaner because the white grout you chose to go with your white tile is now somehow very, very dark. 😣 Revive your grout with this solution, which comes with a flip-top cap for accurate application and no wasted product! Promising review:"I have a white tile floor and I was pretty sure the grout was white also, but it was hard to tell since it was so dirty. I had tried many different methods to clean the grout, with limited or no success, so I gave this product a whirl, and was very pleased with the results. Essentially, you squeeze the bottle, aiming for the grout lines, but in reality, it's a little hard to control, but eventually finds its way to the recessed grout lines, and then let it sit. I let mine sit for 10 minutes. You then need to use a scrub brush to 'agitate' the solution, and it lifted up an amazing amount of grime. You have to wipe up the dirty solution, which sometimes gets into the grout again, so a second application may be needed depending on how dirty your grout is. I have a 6'x6' tiled area on my bathroom floor, so it's a small area, and ended up using about half of the bottle, so this is fairly expensive, but in my opinion, it's well worth the expense because it's the only thing that's worked." — Joseph Canas Get it from Amazon for $21.95. 26. A set of wart-removing pads that'll help get rid of those pesky warts under your skin that just seem to never go away. Infused with salicylic acid, these work to help those annoying things go *poof* and vanish from your skin. 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 $5.57 (available in three styles). 27. A makeup cleansing shampoo because that makeup sponge that used to be light pink is... far from its original color due to all the residual foundation, bronzer, and who-knows-what that's left in there. This removes leftover products and can even extend the life of your applicators! BTW, this is fragrance-free and made without harsh chemicals, so it should be safe for sensitive skin types! Promising review:" Best, most affordable brush and sponge shampoo on the market! No joke, I have tried everything, even homemade hacks like dish detergent mixed with olive oil. Nothing works like this brush shampoo. Don't waste your money on the BeautyBlender soap and other big-name brands." — Lily Get it from Amazon for $6.79 (available in two sizes). 28. FryAway's cooking oil solidifier that can arguably be described as straight up sorcery because it turns your cooking oil into an easily disposable solid. This plant-based powder makes food cleanup (the most annoying part) just a little bit easier! Amazon, FryAway is a woman-owned and Latine-owned small business that was founded by Laura Lady — she loves to cook and care for the environment. This business even donates 1% of revenue to nonprofits focused on water conservation! Promising review:" I used to HATE cooking with oil because I never knew what to do with it when I was finished. Not anymore! This stuff works amazingly well, is easy to use, and allows me to trash oil without a big mess! It just takes a little scoop and a short amount of time for it to set into a gel, and then it all scoops out of the pan so easily! I'm just sad I didn't find this product sooner!" — TheBjamin Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in two styles). 29. A Bissell Little Green Multi-Purpose Cleaner, which works ✨wonders✨ on your couches, carpets, and other upholstery items since it literally sucks up dirt, stubborn stains, and any other nasty spills that have worked their way into your life. Forget calling the pros — this little green powerhouse is way more affordable and just as effective. Promising review: "This has saved me so many times. I use it mostly for my carpet and the couch. I have a cat and dog with an almost white couch, so this has been SUPER helpful. It has yet to fail me." — Amazon Customer Promising review: "This little guy has been working pretty well for me so far. Raising my puppy from 8 weeks, I've had my share of things to try and get out of the carpet, from pee stains to puke to things he would knock over to the mud he would track in. This would get most of it out if I used it right away. I am happy with the way it takes out most stains." — Cece Get it from Amazon for $98.59+ (available in three styles). BTW, this tool comes with small bottles of ready-to-use cleaning formula, but if you need more, grab a bigger bottle for $9.99! 30. A fast-acting jewelry cleaner to finally turn your tarnished jewelry into a sparkling accessory you'll want to wear every day. Just dip your pieces into the solution and watch how quickly this cleans some of your oldest and yuckiest rings, bracelets, and necklaces. Opals, pearls, and other stones are safe to dip into the cleaner, and it even comes with a tiny brush to get the buildup in those little crevices. Promising review: "This stuff does exactly what it says it does! Follow the directions explicitly, it is very effective and user friendly. I used on a few pieces that were years tarnished, and in 10 seconds, they were like new. Highly recommend!!" — maureen k berry Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in three styles and multipacks). 32. A bottle of Messy Eater Stain Remover, a must-have if you have a messy eater, are a messy eater, or are just prone to spills and accidents in your life. Whether it's bright red pasta sauce or your kid's mushy peas, just spray this on clothing, carpet, and toys so afterward you can say "oooohhh" instead of "aw man!" Just spray, rub in, and then launder as usual. Promising review: "I have three young kids who like to get messy and usually spill things on themselves — this spray is a miracle worker! I haven't found a stain this stuff can't get out! I've even had stains that weren't new come out with this spray! Wish they had a bigger bottle option but for now this works. Not a huge fan of the smell but it's not a huge deal because it gets washed anyway." — Heather & Kresten Get it from Amazon for $7.97 (available in three sizes and multipacks). 33. A three-pronged duster, which gets rid of the dust on the top AND bottom of not one... but TWO blinds at once. This comes with five microfiber cleaning towels and makes cleaning much more efficient! Amazon Promising review:"A super time saver. It legitimately used to take us hours to clean all the blinds. We can now do all the faux-wood Venetian blinds in the house in about one hour. It's really nice that it comes with some spare cloths for it, and it's cheap enough to buy a whole additional set so we can make more than one kid do this chore at the same time." — R.D. Get it from Amazon for $6.99. 34. A dishwasher-safe chicken shredder that'll have you feeling like a winner-winner chicken dinner because you just found a quick and easy way to shred chicken without waiting for it to cool down or pick at it with forks. This has anti-slip strips at the bottom to secure the base and ergonomic handles for easy movement. Promising review: "Before I was shredding by hand with two forks which took a while and A LOT of wrist work and hand pain as I have moderate-mild carpal tunnel in both hands and arms. It shreds a lot, very quickly and takes less time!! Glides like butter, does not get stuck, and it's pretty cool to be able to see the process too. It's quite sturdy which I was very impressed with too, and easy to clean." — Celeste8486 Get it from Amazon for $15.05+ (available in nine colors). 35. A hard-water stain remover since hard water with high iron levels is slowly turning your white tub into a yellowish-brown eyesore. This gel formula is designed to cling to stains and remove them without any scrubbing. It even has a minty scent, so you don't have to worry about that harsh chemical smell most cleaning products usually emit. Promising review:"I have tried for weeks to get rid of some very tough hard-water stains on my glass shower panel. They had been there for three years while my apartment was rented and never cleaned. I have tried just about everything from toothpaste to vinegar to different types of chemical products. Then I found this MAGIC!!! The nontoxicity of the product is definitely a plus, it doesn't smell bad and doesn't sting your lungs like some hard chemicals do. Its biodegradability is a plus! I feel better knowing I'm not dumping some more toxic chemicals down the drain. Most importantly, it works!!! After 10 minutes of work it has removed 90% of the hard-water stains that simply would not come off in the past!!" — O.R Get it from Amazon for $17.77. 36. An oil stain remover, which seems like it's a bottle of magic potion because all you do is let it dry on the stain and brush it away. Who knew that bringing back your curb appeal was that easy? Promising review:"Changed the oil on my girlfriend's car and some oil spilled on my NEW I didn't notice 'til four days later. Four spots all about the size of a dollar bill baking in the Arizona sun for four days. Found this searching on Amazon and I thought, whatever. That's one less vodka soda tonight for dinner. Put the stuff on (sits on the stain like pancake batter — don't be afraid to pour liberally) and let it sit from 6 p.m. 'til about 9 a.m. the next day. It dried and the instructions said to just sweep the stuff up (right, like I am not going to need a scraper and wire scrub pad for an hour. HA). Well it broke apart with the broom and the stains were gone, just swept up the powder pieces — took about a minute. I WAS SHOCKED! Something that actually works on oil and it's easy. Absolutely NO sign of anything that was there. My driveway is smooth concrete so I can't vouch for what would happen with a rougher surface but whoever makes this stuff is a genius. If they tried to take on World Peace, Earth would be a better place." — AmazonBob Get it from Amazon for $17.97+ (available in two sizes). 37. A highly-rated pressure washer — the minute you use this, you won't be able to help but say, "That was legitness." Whether it's your dull patio, stained driveway, or not-so-fabulous fence, this handy-dandy machine will make your home look brand-new! Promising review: "This is truly the perfect power washer. First, it is very easy to put together, with clear step-by-step instructions. Second, it has a very small footprint, so it fits nicely anywhere in the garage without protruding out. Third, it is very powerful. We used it to power wash all stone and concrete surfaces around our house and pool and then even the sidewalk in front of the house. Many of the stone/concrete surfaces that we cleaned had dark stains and/or green moss, which had developed for many years (some up to 20 years). This Sun Joe was able to clean everything. Fourth, it is very reliable. We have now used it for three weekends in a row. And each time, we used it continuously, nonstop for several hours at a time." — EdS Get it from Amazon for $199.
