31 Trending Amazon Products That Are Worth The Hype
Psst! I'm about to let you in on a little-known secret: Amazon's Movers & Shakers section is an absolute treasure trove of hidden gems.
An EOS lip balm that smells like the fluffiest birthday cake with mounds of vanilla icing and colorful sprinkles. Reviewers rave over the drool-worthy scent, and it's super hydrating thanks to the shea butter and coconut oil.
A travel-friendly bottle of Downy wrinkle release spray for when you don't feel like lugging the iron and ironing board out. All you have to do is spray, tug the fabric a few times, then smooth the wrinkles away with your hand. It's also perfect for refreshing blankets when you can't remember the last time you threw them in the wash. 😬
The NeeDoh Nice Cube, which went triple platinum on last year's stocking stuffing charts. It has a weighted yet super squishy design that's perfect for keeping fidgety hands busy — it'll slowly go back to its regular shape so you can resquish it again and again.
A pair of retro-chic double-bar aviators so cute and versatile they might just become the first pair you don't lose after two weeks because you'll never let them out of your sight. Speaking of sight, reviewers say the polarized lenses do a terrific job at blocking out the sun and are super clear. Several also said these got them tons of compliments, so be prepared to share the Amazon link with strangers on the street. But I wouldn't blame you for gatekeeping them...
A set of Lego flower pots that are honestly so adorable, I don't know how I'm going to finish writing this sentence with the tears welling up in my eyes. The best part? The flowers are interchangeable! Just kidding, the actual best part is that they can hold hands. ❤️
A 12-pack of Liquid Death Cereal Criminal, which tastes just like a bowl of Fruity Pebbles. Yes, you read that correctly — sparkling water that TASTES LIKE FRUITY PEBBLES!!! This is the kind of beverage innovation that gives me hope for the future. Reviewers say the flavor is shockingly accurate and will kick you right in the nostalgia.
A box of Drizzilicious snacks — which are basically the tastiest tiny rice cakes you will ever eat. The S'mores and French Toast flavors are particularly popular, but I personally love the Cookies & Cream flavor since it's extra chocolatey.
A three-pack of biker shorts that are buttery smooth, ultra comfy, and super helpful to have on-hand for sundress season (bye, bye thigh chafing!). The elastic waistband is meant to provide light compression while staying in place, so you won't have to awkwardly pull up your shorts throughout the day and hope no one is watching. Also, can we talk about the fact that you get three for under $20??? Like, is it secretly Prime Day?!
And a pair of crossover flared leggings, which might have you checking your bank statement to make sure you didn't accidentally drop twice the money on these at Aerie. Reviewers are obsessed with the crossover waistband that provides extra comfort and a bit of shaping support, while the flowy flare design is giving a touch of Mamma Mia with a dash of Kendrick Lamar at the Super Bowl.
E.l.f.'s hydrating Power Grip Primer that often gets compared to the Milk Hydro Grip, which is quite impressive considering its $10 price tag. Not only does it moisturize your skin with its hyaluronic acid, but the cooling gel-like texture is also specifically designed to grip your makeup and keep it in place.
Peach Slices Acne Spot Dots, which are essentially little circles of hydrocolloid that can drain fluids from any open pimples and cover any that are already on the surface. Reviewers say they work wonders and are surprisingly discreet. You also get 30 for under $5, which is way cheaper than the also-popular Mighty Patch version.
Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel that's basically like a latte for your face. It uses the power of yerba mate to soothe the delicate skin under your eyes, caffeine to help brighten, and three forms of hyaluronic acid to moisturize. I did not know there were several types of hyaluronic acid, but I would now like to collect all of them like Pokémon.
A baby fidget cube made specifically for tiny hands. Each side has something to press, spin, or pull, so your little one will have plenty of ways to work on their hand-eye coordination. Imagine having this on a long plane ride or road trip — the definition of a lifesaver.
A set of Kiss press-on nails that give you the French mani look without the ever-increasing salon prices (which is totally fair — doing nails takes some serious skill. My shaky hands could never). But for the months you want to save some cash, these easy-to-apply nails can swoop in to save the day with their flexible fit and waterproof design.
And Onsen's nail and cuticle serum — it uses rice bran oil, Japanese seaweed, and shea butter to condition nails and add some shine. If your nails are absolutely wrecked from your last set of gel or acrylics — this is a must. Reviewers say it's super lightweight, so you can say goodbye to the days of oily cuticle creams that take approximately 84 years to absorb.
A high-quality pair of Bluetooth earbuds THAT ARE UNDER $10!!! It is wild that we've reached the age of technology where you can get good sound quality for less than the price of a Spotify Premium subscription. They've racked up rave reviews for their surprisingly impressive bass levels and long battery life, with some saying they get up to 12 hours on a single charge!
A pomade hair wax stick — it'll be a major timesaver on those days when you want to smooth down flyaways, cowlicks, or set baby hairs into place. Just swipe it over any targeted areas you want to smooth, and it'll provide some seriously strong hold without any sticky residue.
A cruelty-free lengthening Essence mascara that has a whopping 253,000 5-star ratings and some seriously impressive before and after photos. Oh, did I mention it's UNDER $5?! Some reviewers even compare it to expensive brands like Tarte. 👀 Unlike other mascaras at premium price points, reviewers say this one doesn't easily clump or smudge throughout the day and is suitable for sensitive eyes.
A super cheerful set of gel pens in a vibrant gradient design and with buttery-smooth ink that'll have you jumping to volunteer first to take notes in your next work meeting. They're also super fast-drying, so no worries about accidentally smearing your extremely thorough to-do list.
A pack of two dark spot corrector soap bars packed with tons of vitamin C and tumeric — aka the ultimate superhero ingredients for potentially brightening and reviving dull skin. Reviewers have had luck using this on both the face and body — but we recommend giving it a patch test first on a small area to see how your skin reacts. All good? Then start sudsing away!
TruSkin Naturals vitamin C serum to give you that coveted ✨ glowy but not greasy ✨ look that'll have you feeling like a Winx fairy. It's packed with vitamins C and E and botanical hyaluronic acid to help fade dark spots and add a radiant sheen to your skin. It has 94,000+ rave ratings, with many reviewers saying it instantly brightens and absorbs quickly.
A wire-free bra with a whopping 32,000+ rave ratings from reviewers who say it's super lightweight (like, you might forget you even have it on) while still feeling supportive. Oh — and the straps don't flip and get contorted throughout the day! Imagine not daydreaming about going home so you can finally take your bra off!!!
A liquid matte Maybelline lipstick designed to last for up to 16 hours so your color will stay vibrant through your 9-to-5 and your 5-to-9! It's also smudge-proof, so you can make it through lunch without needing to do a full-on lip touchup before heading back to your desk.
A jewelry-cleaning stick so you can quickly and easily add some bling back to your rings and make them 🎵 shine bright like a diamond 🎵. You can use it on basically any of your accessories that need a good sprucing-up — just twist the pen to dispense some cleanser onto the brush, then gently swipe on your jewelry to let the microfine cleansers wipe away dirt and oil.
An Anua pore-clearing cleansing oil that's specifically designed to help regulate your sebum production and break down blackheads, making it a great option for all my fellow oily-skinned peeps. It also helps break down makeup, so you can finally stop wasting money on makeup-removing wipes!
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 self-adhesive paper towel roll holder that requires absolutely zero tools to install — which is the best kind of home improvement project. You can stick it right on the wall or underneath a cabinet and say hello to some glorious extra counter space.
A bottle of hair-building fibers to temporarily fill in bald spots and add some volume to thinning hairs. In the words of this reviewer, "WHAT IN THE HAIR SORCERY IS GOING ON?!" The sorcery in question is the tiny fibers made with follicle-mimicking molecules that grab onto your hair strands and make it look like you took a magical overnight hair growth serum.
A meat shredder that makes quick work of turning full pieces into a perfectly shredded pile that's basically begging you to turn it into a chicken salad. Just place the pieces in, twist the lid a few times, and then decide whether you're whipping up said chicken salad or spicing things up with a buffalo chicken dip instead. Or maybe BBQ?!
A satin bonnet so silky smooth it's inspired more than 10,000 reviewers to leave a 5-star rating. Those satisfied reviewers love that it's super soft (yes, the inside is also lined with satin!) and roomy enough for long hair. And all my fellow hot sleepers will be relieved to know it's breathable enough to wear all night long!
A digital food thermometer that gives an instant reading, so you can rest assured that your meats are cooked to the perfect temperature. It has 102,000+ rave ratings from reviewers who say it's super accurate and perfect for everything from candy to bread. Oh, and there's even a magnet on the back for easy storage!
