41 Mundane, Everyday Products That Somehow Yield Magical Results

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 · No illusions here: David Blaine had no part in making these products. 1. Moodmatcher's color-changing lipstick that starts Elphaba green and then reacts to the pH of your skin to create a Glinda-approved pink. The truly magical formula defies grav— I mean, time by staying on all day, even after eating and drinking. Amazon Moodmatcher is a small business that specializes in color-changing lipstick. Promising review:"This color is beautiful and shows up differently on everyone. The thing that I like most about this product is that it stays on all day, even after eating several meals. I have to use a microfiber cloth to remove it at night!" — Rasheda Get it from Amazon for $6.59 (also available in nine other colors). 2. A long-lasting temporary tattoo kit for when you're bored of your current ink situation and wanna mix it up — for a little bit, at least. Apply the fruit-based ink in the shape of your design and then watch the tattoo do a vanishing act over the next two weeks. Apply the ink with a stencil and the tattoo will develop over the next day to look like the real deal. Promising review:"I purchased the kit for me and my GF. This was my first time doing this kind of tattoo making, so I wasn't sure what to expect aside from having a lot of fun. Well, we had way more than fun as we started inking each other. The tattoo-making process is really easy. My tat is now six days old and still looks dark and sharp." — Golan Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes). 3. A"Gracula" garlic crusher that ironically helps you with one of the most tedious chores in the kitchen. Just throw in the peeled cloves, twist, and feel grateful you Let the Right One your kitchen. Promising review: "I love this little guy. I found him on a BuzzFeed list and had to have it as soon as I saw it! I've minced as many as five cloves in it in seconds. It's a little tricky getting all of the garlic out once minced (I use a silicone basting brush to get most of it, but I always use more than the recipe calls for anyway, so it's not a deal breaker). Cleanup is a breeze because he goes right in the dishwasher!" — Barbie Get it from Amazon for $13.29. 4. Laneige's Neo Blurring Powder, a low-maintenance option for makeup minimalists who want a matte, yet still radiant, complexion. It absorbs oil and blurs pores, leaving your face as glowy as a forest nymph. Amazon, 5. A pack of carborundum sponges — YES, the stuff they make bulletproof vest plates out of — because tough jobs require tough solutions. Just dip one of these in water and start scouring — the nano-particles will cut through intense grease, grime, and stuck-on food bits when all other earthly measures to keep your pots clean have failed. The high-density sponges are squishy on the inside with an emery layer on the outside. They can be cut into smaller chunks for cleaning nooks and crannies. Promising review: "Nice and thin. You'll find so many more uses for these around the house than just getting stuff off the underside of cookware! I had hard, scaly water deposits on the glass surrounding our powder room faucet (one of those fancy, highfalutin modern-looking things). I've tried everything for four years to get this stuff off. One day I thought, maybe i'll try my sponges. Took it all off super easily!!!! Faucet looks like new. My only rec is to spot-test your item first before using it because it will scratch certain surfaces if you scrub too aggressively (for example, it gets the burned-on, weird stuff off of the bottom of my fave Our Place pan, but I rubbed too hard in one spot and it took the color right off lol)." — Hoarder Get an eight-pack from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in two sponge thicknesses). 6. A fast-acting lawn repair formula possibly designed by Poison Ivy to revitalize your patchy yard after your dog has done a number on it. It helps with regrowth and has a special salt neutralizer that can minimize the effects of salts from dog urine. Now Fido can do his thing, and you can still have a pristine backyard to relax in. Promising review:"I used this in the spring to fill out our lawn more, and it worked great! I was worried because I feel like you always hear grass seed horror stories, but I just raked our lawn good, spread seeds all over, and watered it once (sometimes twice) per day and it filled the lawn in beautifully!" — Mariah Get it from Amazon for $16.44. 7. A Revlon volcanic face roller way easier to use than those disposable blotting pads. You just roll the volcanic stone over any oily or greasy areas on your face and then pop it in your bag for later. You don't even need to bargain with a volcano dragon to get one! Just twist the ring to pop out the stone, then wash it with a mild soap/cleanser and let it air dry after every use. Promising review:" This little miracle worker is a game-changer for oily skin like mine. I am amazed at how much oil it absorbs without smudging or removing any of my makeup. Every time I think this oil-eating monster has had its fill and surely I should get a new one, by the next morning, the oil has disappeared, and the roller looks brand new again!! MAGIC!!" — Jason Zapata Get it from Amazon for $8.18 (also available in rose quartz style). 8. FryAway Waste Cooking Oil Solidifier Powder because you absolutely, 100% cannot just pour it down the drain. Sprinkle the pixie dust in the oil while it's hot, let it cool, then scoop it right into the trash. FryAway is a woman-owned and Latine-owned small business started by Laura Lady, who loves both cooking and being kind to the planet. They donate 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 $8.99+ (available in two styles). 9. Miss Mouth's Messy Eater Stain Treater Spray renowned in the parenting community thanks to its uncanny ability to erase stains from most fabrics in record time, all without harsh ingredients like chlorine, sulfates, or perfumes. Just spritz some on spilled juice, melted Popsicles, chocolate (hopefully), and more to watch them go *poof* and disappear. Promising review:"My 1-year-old has taco meat stains ALL over the sleeves of his shirt. The stains were 2–3 days old, too. I sprayed the shirt, let it sit for about 15 mins, and then washed the shirt with regular laundry soap. Almost every bit of the stains came out. Definitely buying bulk in this product!" — Sloan Avery Get it from Amazon for $7.97 (available in three sizes and multipacks). 10. An Elizavecca collagen coating hair protein treatment that takes your dry, tired hair and turns it into the silky-soft locks you've always dreamed for, no fairy godmother needed. Just apply it to wet hair after shampooing, wait five minutes, rinse, and wonder why all hair treatments don't feel this magical. Rebecca O'Connell / BuzzFeed Promising review:"My hair used to be really soft, and then I discovered hot tools and hair dye. While my hair looks good I really missed the soft texture. This works so well. There are no instructions on the box but I washed my hair with my usual shampoo, towel-dried it, worked about two quarter-sized dollops through my hair, let it sit for 20 minutes and then rinsed out. I went to bed with wet hair, which usually results in my hair being kind of tangled and rough looking, but I woke up and my hair was as soft and silky as it was before I started coloring it. I'm totally in love with this product, I have long, fine hair but this doesn't leave it greasy or weigh it down. I'll definitely buy again." — Ellie Get it from Amazon for $7.60. 11. A Chom Chom pet hair remover if you'd prefer your furniture to be fur-free but don't have the patience to vacuum for a century. It has a clingy roller (no wasteful adhesive strips) that grabs hair and deposits it into a built-in compartment. Witches may have a spell up their sleeves for black cat fur on their cloaks, but we mortals don't even need it! Promising review:"Where has this been all my cat-loving life? Sticky rollers work fine for clothes, but this is the only product that has ever COMPLETELY removed all the cat hair from my bed. I have a long-haired 20-pound tabby, and if you run your hands up his back a few times and fling the hair everywhere, it looks like it's snowing — he never stops shedding no matter what I do. After using the ChomChom, I can put on a black dress and roll around on my bed and not get a single hair on me. It's absolutely amazing. Everyone is getting one for Christmas, even if they don't have a pet. I don't care — it's THAT good." — DH Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in two colors). 12. A lip plumper set with day and night serums that work together like Penn and Teller to give your pout a boost. Use the minty one at night to hydrate and smooth, and then the tingly ginger one to give your lips a little more volume. Promising review: "I discovered this product from TikTok, and I had to give it a try. I tried the day lip plumper, and within a few seconds, there was a subtle tingling/burning that lasted for a few minutes, but as it occurred, the plumping started to happen! It made a noticeable difference and made my lips look like I had filler! I'm obsessed!!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $9.98. 13. A bottle of Bio-Clean, a hard water stain remover possibly brewed by Merlin himself. Made with biodegradable ingredients, this magical solution cuts through stains, rust, and weird spots caused by mineral buildup. Picture this: opaque shower doors, soap-scummy bathtubs, stained tiles, and cloudy-looking pool floors, all suddenly glistening and shining like new. Reviewers say you still need to scrub, so arm yourself with a rigid sponge or the drill brush to speed things up. Promising review: "Wow. Don't waste your time with any other formulation that you found online. I've literally tried EVERYTHING! The soap/vinegar/baking soda, the expensive store-bought 'hard water cleaners.' I've scrubbed for HOURS! But this…. This product is like magic. It's kind of like a paste that you can rub on with a microfiber towel, and the hard water stains literally just RUB OFF. Like butter! Seriously the easiest option I have tried yet. I stopped within the first five minutes of cleaning to do this review because I'm in shock, lol. Coming from someone who never writes reviews! Take that as a sign to buy this immediately. What a game changer; I'm mad I'm just now finding this stuff." — _kayla_carter Get it from Amazon for $19.77. 14. A Medix retinol body lotion because if retinol works so well for your face, it's gotta do wonders for the rest of your body too. IDK what kind of magical ingredients they're putting in this (besides ferulic acid, glycerin, and shea butter), but over 25,000 happy customers recommend this for encouraging skin cell turnover to help tighten and firm skin. Promising reviews:"I have so many high-end moisturizers, but this is one of the best I've ever used. Very moisturizing and feels so good on the skin." — Auntsara "I've been looking all over for years for a good body lotion that's not sticky, greasy, and so on. This is the BEST lotion in the world 🌎 ❤️. It makes my skin really soft." — Meda Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (also available in seven other styles and multipacks). 15. The Pink Stuff, an all-purpose paste you can use to zap dirt and grime from basically any surface — it works on everything from marble and wood to rubber boots and car steering wheels. Wasting time scrubbing will be a thing of the past. And the future? Sparkly clean items as far as the eye can see. Promising review:"Oh my gosh — this stuff is a life changer! Used it to get my fiberglass shower totally clean. Nothing else would get it done, and this stuff brought my shower back to near new in one use. We've since cleaned a weird, chalky film off our garage door, removed wall markings, and cleaned my storm door. We'll never be without a jar (or three) of this stuff. Worth every penny." — Nancy F. Get it from Amazon for $5.97. 16. Veet sensitive hair removal gel kindly providing a soothing, gentle alternative to razors or waxing. The aloe-infused formula works in under 10 minutes by dissolving hair on your legs, arms, back, and bikini area. It's designed to be more efficient and reduce the risk of in-grown hairs — no shapeshifting abilities needed! It comes with a spatula for removing the cream. Just be sure to test a small area of your skin and make sure there are no adverse reactions for 24 hours. Avoid face, genitals, nipples, and other sensitive areas. Promising review:"I have been looking for a good hair removal for my sensitive skin and this one is perfect. It has a great odor and leaves my skin feeling smooth and silky. It does not burn my skin at all, even when I leave it on for 15 minutes or more. This is definitely my new hair removal cream. I will recommend this one to everyone." — Crystal Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in a two-pack). 17. Hope's Perfect Sink solution that cleans and then basically creates a water-repellant force field over your sink to protect it from stains and damage. It works on everything from stainless steel to porcelain (along with cast iron, corian, composite, acrylic, etc.), ensuring that your sink rinses clean and shines like new, no matter how many cups of coffee you pour on it. Violet Parr would approve! BuzzFeed editor Maitland Quitmeyer loves this stain-removing polish: "I bought this for my white porcelain kitchen sink, and I've since texted five people about it, which is really a lot for such a boring grown-up product. It cleans beautifully, but the *best* thing about it is its ability to repel stains after cleaning. You know that thing when you rinse out your coffee cup and the coffee water just lingers in your sink and you have to purposefully rinse it out for two minutes? You don't have to do that — the coffee can't stick to the sink and just goes RIGHT down the drain. Time saved, sink clean — this is really a Virgo dream product right here." Promising review:"Holy banana peppers! This stuff ROCKS! I hate cleaning. You clean, stuff looks okay and smells nice for like an hour, and then it's as if you've never cleaned. We have a deep stainless steel sink that I love, except for the cleaning. It never looks clean, so cleaning it isn't exactly rewarding. I mean, I clean it because germs, pandemic, etc, but I don't like anything about it. I saw this on some BuzzFeed "things you should buy on Amazon" and ordered it. And ignored it. Now, as there's a quarantine, even as an essential worker, I really have no excuse to not clean. Sigh. I splooshed some in the sink, like I did with Barkeeper's Friend liquid, and scrubbed away as usual. However, when I went to rinse, it was all sparkly and shiny and the water beaded up! I seriously made my husband and daughter come into the kitchen to look at my sparkly sink! This is the cleanest this sink has ever been, and I seriously LOVE this product! Off to order more before you all read my review and discover its true awesomeness. I didn't take any pictures before because why the hell would I do that, but believe me, the difference is amazing!!" — Amazon Customer Get the value size from Amazon for $29.95 or the smaller size for $9.95. 18. Mielle's Rosemary Mint strengthening oil, a TikTok-hall-of-famer that almost 7,500 5-star reviews confirm is worth the hype. The biotin-infused serum can help strengthen hair and encourage new growth, leaving hair feeling healthier and fuller. Reviewers say it's helped with everything from receding hairlines to sparse eyebrows. Save your coins — I don't think that back-alley witch who promised you a full head of hair was licensed anyway. You can read more about how biotin could help with the fullness of hair at Cleveland Clinic — plus, according to the Cleveland Clinic, some researchers have found rosemary oil comparable to Rogaine in helping with hair growth. Promising reviews: "I hardly write reviews, but this one deserves to be written about!! My hair was falling out a LOT, and somehow, just with the FIRST application onwards, I started seeing less fall. And now, after four months, I can see hair growth as well, and my hair is already looking thicker!! And I've been using it only once a week, just a few drops and massaging in. Omg, how can anything be so simple and yet so effective!!! Amazing! Amazing!!! Whoever invented this, hats off!!" — Dee Get it from Amazon for $9.33. 19. Glisten garbage disposal cleaner that's not only easy to use, but also very entertaining. Run some hot water, pop one of the packets in your disposer, let it froth up like a bubbling cauldron, wait for the foam to fully disappear, and bam! You can admire your lemony fresh drain that was basically cleaned for you. Amazon Promising review:"WHERE HAS THIS BEEN ALL MY LIFE???! Holy cow, I didn't realize how easy and quick it was to clean a garbage disposal until I bought this product! Typically, I'd just use vinegar and baking soda down the drain and call it good. I didn't know that there was an actual disposal cleaning product available until I stumbled across it through a BuzzFeed article. I had to try it. The instructions are very simple. It literally takes five minutes and some hot water and VOILA! you have a clean, no-longer-stinky garbage disposal. Any time I got a whiff of an odor, all I did was drop one of these packs in the disposal and the smell was GONE! Plus, the blue foam bubbling in the sink was amusing to watch. Worth every penny!!" — VadersGirl Get a pack of 12 from Amazon for $15.75. 20. A box of Grace & Stella under-eye masks formulated with hyaluronic acid and glycerin to turn back time to before you decided to pull that all-nighter. Reviewers said the refreshing patches helped them reduce puffiness, redness, and dark circles. Spa day, anyone? The blue patches are illuminating eye masks (for dull under eyes). The gold patches are energizing eye masks (for tired under eyes). The pink patches are moisturizing eye masks (for dry under-eyes). Promising review: "I have tried many eye masks through the years and was pleasantly surprised by this product. It's worth the hype. I'm a skincare lover and have spent tens of thousands on skin products, including LED red light masks, infrared saunas, and every new facial device that has come along, including high-end skincare and everything in between. I have eye bags and hollows, and these do a phenomenal job at plumping and hydrating the under-eye area. Great quality and quantity for the price. I will be repurchasing." — Nvohpa88 Get six pairs from Amazon for $9.95+ (also available in packs of 24, 48, and 72 and in three styles). 21. A grout pen that you can use to just cover up all the dirt and make your tiles look brand spanking new. You technically didn't clean, but what is magic if not cheating reality? Promising review:"I was pleasantly surprised by how far these went. I did the entire floor of my large master bathroom plus a little of the shower with one pen. It is pretty forgiving and you have quite a bit of working time before it dries completely. This was not a quick task, but it went faster than I thought it would. I was worried the white would look too bright, but it just makes everything look so much cleaner. I'm very happy with this product!" — Jenelle Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in three colors, and two sizes). 22. A Nooni tinted appleberry lip oil giving a delicate pop of color so ethereal and fairy-like, you'll wonder why you ever bothered with lipsticks or lip glosses. The apple seed and raspberry extract–infused oil offers long-lasting hydration and a touch of color WITHOUT any annoying stickiness — over 300 5-star reviewers confirm! This lip oil is vegan, cruelty-free, and has no parabens, sulfates, or phthalates. Promising review: "This is the first lip oil I've ever used. Usually, I avoid anything with oil because I have very sensitive and generally oilier skin, but I wanted to give this a try because I wanted something sheer and pretty for a natural makeup look. Probably the best purchase I've ever made!!! It's super sheer and looks fine on its own without any other makeup. The smell is delicious, and while the gloss dries and fades after about an hour or two without eating, the color stays all day! I did have to reapply after eating, but not after drinking water! I just wish it were bigger; it's a teeny bottle. Would definitely buy again!!" — Rachel Get it from Amazon for $12 (available in 14 shades, a jumbo size, and multipacks). 23. An Oven Cleaning Kit complete with oven scrub, all-purpose cleaner, and a metallic sponge because the self-cleaning feature can only do so much. I know, I know, but someone had to say it: Your oven is gross. This set will tear through dirt and grime like it was never there to begin with. Magic cleaning potion: 1 Technology: 0. It's made in small batches with natural ingredients (like citric acid, glycerin, and essential oils), so it's safe for your family, pets, and home. Everneat is a Fairfield, Connecticut-based Etsy shop filled with natural cleaning products and tools. Promising review: "I LOVE this stuff. I use the multipurpose cleaner several times a day (because kids), and it makes the house smell lovely. The oven cleaner also is a miracle worker. I no longer have to use the gross self-cleaning option to get the grease off. A little goes a long way too, so it is still cost-effective in keeping things clean." — Thao Get it from Everneat on Etsy for $38 (available in two scents or unscented). 24. L'Oréal Paris Elvive 8 Second Wonder Water bringing you silkier hair in just eight seconds. On top of a wave of hydration, it also adds shine and decreases frizz and static. Spring rain can try to frizz up your hair all it wants, but you'll be prepared with this cantrip in a bottle! Use this treatment two or three times a week — one dose for fine to medium textured hair, two to three doses for thick to curly textured hair, and add one more dose if you have long hair. Promising review:"Bought this not expecting that it would work. I've been using products in and on my hair for years, both expensive and inexpensive. This is the best I've used, bar none! It smooths and takes away the tightness of the curls. Will buy it again and again!" — Judith Cohen Get it from Amazon for $10.97. 25. A Howard Products Feed-N-Wax wood polish and conditioner with carnauba wax and beeswax enhance and protect your wood from drying out, so you can keep your great-grandmother's rocking chair in tip-top shape with just a few swipes. This must be the spell magical beings use to spruce up their floors. Many reviewers started by using Restor-A-Finish to blend out minor scratches before finishing with the Feed-N-Wax. It's as simple as wiping on and off! Promising review:"I got this product a few hours ago from Amazon and now have shiny floors! It gave the really dull hardwood floors of my prewar NYC apartment an impressive shine. Really impressive. A little goes a long way: I used only about two ounces to shine about 500 square feet of clean floors. Before using it on the floors, I tested the polish on an old wooden side table that was scarred and needed sanding. It looked a lot better afterward." — KindleCustomer2 Get it from Amazon for $9.45. 26. Anua heartleaf pore-clearing cleansing oil, a viral sensation proving that seeing is believing: Reviewers say they could actually watch the gunk leaving their skin. It dissolves makeup, attacks blackheads, and works to remove excess sebum without stripping away natural oils, drying out your skin, or using any dark magic. The heartleaf extract soothes sensitive and acne-prone skin. The brand recommends you follow this up with a foaming cleanser! Promising review:"This is my first time ordering an oil-based cleanser and I'm so glad I purchased this one. I originally saw this product on TikTok and wanted to see what the hype was all about. After using the cleanser on my dry face for two to three minutes, I could visibly see my white- and blackheads on my fingers. I was a little hesitant to try oil cleansing because I have acne-prone skin, however, my face has never looked better. After each use, my face is as soft as a baby's bottom and my scarring doesn't look as deep! The cleanser has a light clean scent. Not super strong! I am currently pairing this cleanser with the Anua Heartleaf soothing toner to achieve glass skin. #glassskinera" — Myshel Cagle Get it from Amazon for $17.69. 27. Weiman silver cleaning wipes to refresh your old adornments and talismans. These ammonia-free wipes offer long-lasting shine, protect items from scratching, and don't leave behind a gross residue like some polishing pastes. I've used these and can confirm they work super fast! Promising review:"It is very uncommon for me to write a review but this product is amazing. My family's silverware had not been polished in the 15 years since I married my husband. The only time I ever polished anything before it was messy and smelly and took forever. Therefore I didn't have any interest in polishing something that we weren't using. I decided to try these wipes because the price was reasonable. They are easy to use and do a wonderful job! The silverware looks silver! I used four wipes to polish a service of eight, and it took me about 20 minutes. I highly recommend this product!" — Kehrli Get a pack of 20 from Amazon for $9.55. 28. And a Connoisseurs jewelry cleaning pen you can count on to add an impossibly lustrous shine previously never seen on a mortal finger — no costly trip to the jeweler required. As someone who refuses to take off rings before washing dishes, showering, etc., I need this! Promising review:"I have a 2.5-carat wedding ring and have a hard time really finding anything that gets that 'first day' sparkle back. With the Dazzle Stik, it shines again. Thank you so much!" — Get it from Amazon for $9.48. 29. Gold Bond's firming neck and chest cream to pamper your décolletage with some special skincare attention. 10,000+ 5-star raters love that the glycerin and aloe hydrate while the salicylic acid gently exfoliates, leaving firmer, softer skin. People may start to wonder if you wished on a shooting star to get these fantastic results. Promising review: "My dry neck and the annoying itchiness I used to experience have completely gone away after using this cream. It's not only soothing, but it also feels like it's really nourishing my skin. The firming benefits are a bonus! I highly recommend this product to anyone dealing with dryness or discomfort in their neck and chest area. It's become a must-have in my skincare routine." — JAcosta Get it from Amazon for $11.97 (also available in a two-pack). 30. A rust-removing gel spray – you may be tempted to say "abracadabra" as you use it. It's that magical! The powerful gel clings to rust on contact, so you can watch stains start melting off your tiles immediately; no scrubbing needed. Use this for cleaning bathtubs, showers, toilets, colorfast fabrics, vertical surfaces, and hard-to-reach spots. It's nonabrasive and made with a nonhydrofluoric acid-based formula. Promising review:"Holy wizardry! Seriously, it was more work to clean the mirror over the vanity than to use this product. With almost no effort, this made my dark orange, iron-water shower stall white again. I definitely suggest wearing a mask or bandana and running the ventilation fan if spraying in an enclosed area. Great product!" — Jessica B Get it from Amazon for $11.35. 31. A mint-flavored Venus Visage teeth-whitening pen to help with some stubborn stains and yellowing. Just brush your teeth with the bristled pen whenever you have a minute to work through stains and discoloration (without sensitivity, according to reviewers). Less convenient than spiriting stains away, but way easier than a painful trip to the dentist or an annoying attempt at the strips. Promising review:"This product actually works! Very affordable, too. There are a lot of expensive teeth whitening products out there, but why spend extra money when you don't have to? Definitely worth trying!" — Mona L Cureton Get it from Amazon for $9.55 (also available in multipacks). 32. A three-blade blinds cleaner with five removable microfiber sleeves so you can clean twice as fast. It's not like you know any spells that'll give you an extra arm, so inventions like this will have to do for now. It's curved to contour to and better clean traditional Venetian blinds, so these might not be a great fit for straight or oversized blinds. Promising review:"LOVE these for dusting my blinds. Easy to switch out and clean. Definitely captures the dust. Highly recommend." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $6.99. 33. Peach Slices nose pore patches offering an overnight solution to open pimples and oily skin. Just wash your face, exfoliate, and pop one on before bed. The hydrocolloid bandage will essentially create a summoning spell to soak up gunk from your pores without drying your skin. Promising review:"It had to be said. These things are disgusting, that's why you should buy them. Squeeze part of your nose skin. Do a bunch of little pustules come out? Yeah, if you put one of these puppies on at night, you wake up, and that is all trapped inside that weird film. I dunno how it works. It's probably sorcery." — Jack Sawyer Get a seven-pack from Amazon for $9.98. 34.

Check out a TikTok of the SneakErasers in action. Promising review: "I have a couple of pairs of sneakers I stopped wearing because they started looking a bit grungy.

A blessedly effective, pet-safe carpet cleaner to give you some wow-worthy results without even having to know the true name of dirt and asking it to leave. It works with all cleaning machines, even the rental ones from the hardware store. Promising reviews:"This is a wonderful product. I have an older dog who can't always wait until I get home from work, so accidents occasionally happen. I have a Hoover Rug Scrubber, and this product is very easy to use with my machine. Carpet Miracle works amazingly well on stains and odors, even those that have set for a while. I did the carpet in the 'room of shame' twice just to be sure, although for normal soil and odors, once should be more than enough. It leaves behind a wonderfully clean, fresh scent, and the carpet feels and looks wonderful. I plan on continuing to use this product to keep my carpets clean and my home smelling fresh." — Vicky Faurot "I wish I could give it 100 stars. I have never really did a review on here but I had to today.

I have been using it for a couple of months for acne scars and I have seen a huge reduction in scarring, depth of scars, and redness/color of scarring. My skin is smoother, the color is much more even, my skin never breaks out anymore, and the scars that I still have aren't really noticeable. I use it a.m. and p.m. I had given up that anything would help my acne scars. I have tried tons of products. This product is amazing!!!" — bkm61 Get it from Amazon for $15.75. 38. A leather cleaner you can count on to help bring life back to your old furniture. Don't worry, it's not like a necromancy situation. Just mix this concentrate with water, put it in a spray bottle, spray, and wipe off. Promising review: "My 15-year-old leather sectional hadn't been cleaned or conditioned in three to four years because I couldn't find anything that worked well without causing it to look blotchy. The color was also fading and I thought it was a goner. After some elbow grease, the sectional looks great! It's now back to its original color without being blotchy. More importantly, the suppleness has returned. I can actually say that it looks as good as the day we bought it." — jellybean55 Get it from Amazon for $16.90. 39. A FlexiSnake with teeny-tiny hooks that latch onto hair, soap scum, and grime and a rotating handle that gives you 360-degree access to your gunked up drain. Just insert, spin, and pull up whatever hairy monster is lurking down there. Wizards don't have to call plumbers, and neither should you! Amazon, This pack contains a reusable handle and five single-use heads that you just remove and dispose of after handling your clogged pipes. Promising review:"Wow. Best thing ever. Seriously. I have had tweezers and sticks and plumbers and chemicals trying to get my master sink to drain. Plumber even said I need an entirely new faucet to get the drain plug part because they don't sell those separately. Well, I have two sinks, a tub, and shower that all match so that was not a valid solution. Doubt I can find the same model. So I bought this thing. Stuffed it down, pulled up hair, and black muck. Did it about eight times quickly, ran the water, went right down the drain. Seriously. This is the best tool ever and the best $12 I have ever spent. Everyone with a sink needs this tool. Seriously." — juliejules Get a five-pack from Amazon for $19.99. 40.

Promising reviews:"I got this in hopes of lightening my dark inner thighs. It's been a month of using the bar every time I shower and I see drastic results already. I was a bit suspicious if this would actually work, but if you are on the fence please take this as a sign to get it and try it out. I'm so excited to see how I look in a few months from now because this thing works and it works fast!" — puppbear "I started using this product one month ago. I use it all over my body [and] it lightened my underarms just in time for spring. I wish I knew about this sooner." — Michaella Leyein Get a two-pack from Amazon for $14.99 (also available in larger multipacks). 41.

It comes with flushable pads presoaked in cleaner so you can click, scrub, and toss away the nasty evidence. Amazon, The kit comes with a wand, four refills, and a stand. Promising reviews:"I love this!! I soo wish I'd found these a long time ago. So easy to use and discard so you don't have a nasty, dirty toilet brush next to the toilet. Plus, no extra toilet cleaning products to buy, it's all in one and for a great price. I'm never buying another brush for cleaning the toilet again. I wish I could give 10 stars. Totally recommend this!!!" — Jessica Get it from Amazon for $5.28.

If you are unsure about these, I would definitely recommend buying them." — april Get them from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in various pack sizes and five styles). 2. A fruit-shaped throw pillow adding some tropical vibes to your home, because square-pillows are just Close the blinds and cuddle up with your papaya. Promising review: "I LOVE this pillow.

This magic marker style has a great shape applicator for good control, and it stains your lips without any messy gloss. The stain lasts all day!

Will you score the transparent Melon color or the elusive Fortune Cat? Only one way to find out... Promising review: "I absolutely adore these little square cats! They are small for pocket-size fidgeting, which helps with my anxiety. I really love the sound they make when you shake 'em. I bought one blind box and was really surprised to have gotten one of the secret rare ones! Pictures do not do it justice; it's a very pretty transparent finish. Will definitely buy more because I want the whole set! Purrfect for cat lovers and worth the money." — Krysiss Get it from Amazon for $12.98. 11.

We had so much fun mixing colors and painting. Would definitely recommend. The fact that they are small makes them even more special. I wish there were more to paint!" — slb m Get it from Amazon for $7.99. 12. A Britannia metal hairclip offering some Western charm to any outfit. The creators of this barrette were not horsing around: Reviewers say the craftsmanship is top-tier. Amazon Oberon Design is a small business that sells leather and metal goods made in the US. Promising review: "The BEST I've seen... I collect barrettes, and I'm always looking for good, strong, and pretty ones — I have long, thick hair. This barrette is absolutely beautiful! It's stunning. I'm speechless. Gosh, what a wonderful purchase. I will buy it again from Oberon Design. The quality is excellent. The edges are smooth, with nothing rough or sharp like cheaper barrettes from other vendors. Best of all, my barrette is American made!!!" — Singjo Get it from Amazon for $16.95. 13. Soot sprite dryer balls that'll look sooo cute bouncing around in your dryer. Besides being adorable, they reduce drying time, prevent wrinkles, and soften clothes, all without coating your stuff in a waxy residue like dryer sheets do. Dryer balls are eco-friendly *and* budget friendly because you can use them over and over. Friendsheep is a small business that sells dryer balls handmade by women in Kathmandu, Nepal. Promising review: "These are so incredibly cute! I love that they look like soot sprites! I used them today and noticed a significant decrease in drying time. No static, and able to be scented with essential oils. A great alternative to polyester, single-use dryer sheets." — Daria Get a pack of three from Amazon for $18 (available in nine sets). 14. A wind-up toy shaped like a cat riding a robot vacuum. We've all seen the videos — it's time to recreate it at home. Amazon, This toy is battery-free! It also comes with a little booklet. Promising review: "I think this little toy is adorable. I have it on my coffee table, and you just wind it and watch it go. I bought one for a friend, and she loved it. Cute gift for cat lovers." — T Get it from Amazon for $10.18. 15. A tiny violin keychain you can ironically play the next time someone vents a little too long. Press the button on the back to unleash "a symphony of sarcasm" — hopefully the melodramatic music will lighten the mood. Amazon Promising review: "This is great to have on hand when someone is complaining and you are sarcastic! The tune is not overly loud or annoying; you can even use it in an office." — Melinda Get it from Amazon for $7.99. 16.

I can't wait to give them to my kids." — Kayc Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in six styles). 17. A sad duck night-light ready to cheer you up — because at least you've never felt so down you've melted into the table. My husband got me this light as a gift, and I can confirm it's very cute. If you firmly tap or squeeze it, you can toggle between three brightness settings. It's not bright enough to read by, but it works quite nicely as a night-light or for mood lighting. The legs are wiggly, which is definitely a selling point for me. Promising review: "This little lamp is BEYOND adorable. I got it as a gift for my niece, and she loved it. It's super cute, has a soft squishy texture, and has a little X for his butt. Maybe some won't like the little X, but it just adds extra cuteness. Worked right out of the box. Seemed pretty bright. Squish him, and the level changes. I can't speak to life expectancy, but it seems decent enough quality. Freaking adorable! Way better than expected." — KF Get it from Amazon for $15.99. 18. A plush fruit slice probably more comfortable and DEFINITELY cuter than the normal cone of shame your cat has to wear. The adjustable collar gives your cat a nice cushion to rest with while they recover from surgery. Promising review: "This is WONDERFUL product. It's obviously adorable, but it's comfortable for Mojo. It has a drawstring with plastic locking mechanism similar to that of a laundry bag. He has an issue biting his fur to the point of causing skin issues and infections on his body, mainly his tail and hind quarters, and this helps tremendously. H e can still reach part of his legs; the soft cushion isn't quite wide enough, but his tail is the main problem, and he doesn't seem able to reach it. He adjusted easily to continuous use since it's comfortable for him to simply rest his head on it like a pillow. It's soft fabric, so it will get soaked on one side when he drinks water from the bowl, but after soaking up the water with a paper towel, it dries rapidly. I will be buying more of these to clean them and provide more choices and more cuteness. I would definitely recommend this product." — Billychic Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in two sizes and eight styles). 19. A giant bread pillow you can cuddle up with and get nice and toasty. You may want to also get a real baguette because this thing is making me hungry! Promising review:"I bought this delicious bread morsel to cheer up a friend. It was perfect; she really kneaded it. She uses it for cuddling and sleeping. This yummy bread cake doesn't feel crummy at all; it's soft. It was the yeast I could do. If your friend loves bread and they're going through a tough time, you butter get this." — Nora Lee Majors Get it from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in three sizes). 20. A"Gracula" garlic crusher that ironically helps you with one of the most tedious chores in the kitchen. Just throw in the peeled cloves, twist, and feel grateful you Let the Right One your kitchen. Promising review: "I love this little guy. I found him on a BuzzFeed list and had to have it as soon as I saw it! I've minced as many as five cloves in it in seconds. It's a little tricky getting all of the garlic out once minced (I use a silicone basting brush to get most of it, but I always use more than the recipe calls for anyway, so it's not a deal breaker). Cleanup is a breeze because he goes right in the dishwasher!" — Barbie Get it from Amazon for $18.99. 21. A disco ball watering globe to make your plant feel like they're at their own personal dance party. It'll keep your plant hydrated between watering sessions and, when the sun hits just right, create a fun light show in your home. That's a lot of benefits from what seemed like an impractical purchase at first. 🤔 Promising review: "I love the uniqueness of these watering tools! They sparkle subtly in the sunshine and provide me with the peace that I can go a few days without watering! Well designed, and I would buy from this seller again!" — Laura Get a set of two from Amazon for $24.99. 22. A long-lasting temporary tattoo kit for when you're bored of your current ink situation and wanna mix it up — for a little bit, at least. Apply the ink with a stencil and the tattoo will develop over the next day to look like the real deal. Promising review:"I purchased the kit for me and my GF. This was my first time doing this kind of tattoo making, so I wasn't sure what to expect aside from having a lot of fun. Well, we had way more than fun as we started inking each other. The tattoo-making process is really easy. My tat is now six days old and still looks dark and sharp." — Golan Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes). 23. A fashionable lil' capybara who comes with a variety of sweaters and accessories so they can make outfit swaps throughout the day. If you miss the soaring joy of dressing up a Build-A-Bear, this might do the trick. Each rodent comes with two hats, three sweaters, two scarves, and two bags. Promising review: "This is the cutest thing ever. I bought it for my 9-year-old granddaughter, and she [loved it]. The capybara is soft and cuddly. The clothes are made well and so cute. I highly recommend." — Yiayiaof4 Get it from Amazon for $27.99 (available in four styles). 24. A giant pack of sprout hair clips featuring springy mushrooms, clovers, and flowers. Tell me a flowy dress, and a couple of these wouldn't go hard at brunch. Promising review: "Bought these to sell at a school fundraiser (donated them for that purpose). The kids loved them! They sold out quickly. Surprisingly sturdy (though if you pulled on a clover purposely, it might break). The springs provide a lot of fun movement. Would be fun classroom gifts. Note they look best when wearing two (to look like you have clover antennae)." — Tigermaiden Get a pack of 30 from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in 18 styles). 25. A pack of plastic balls to make all your nostalgic ball pit dreams come true. This pack comes with enough for a pet or small child to have fun could also buy adults could an idea... Unsure how many to buy? Use this handy calculator. Promising review: "I purchased for my children's ball pit. They love them. I like the vibrant colors, and it's a great size for toddlers (they can't fit the balls in their mouths). They're super easy to clean and very durable. Two years later and they are still intact!! Highly recommend. Good amount and priced well!!" — Yokasta Disla Get it from Amazon for $10.99+ (available three pack sizes and two colors). 26. A sticker book filled with grouchy-looking cats. I would ask why they're so upset, but we all know cats never need a reason. You can have fun placing these directly in the sightline of anyone bugging you that day. >:( Amazon Each cat comes with a speech bubble and a mean one-liner. Promising review: " My brother is a cat lover, and the stickers are big and beautiful. This is his favorite Christmas present from me." — C. Wong Get it from Amazon for $8. 27. A paw-shaped chair cushion, because who doesn't want to be lovingly cradled in a kitten's paw? Amazon, Promising review:"I freaking LOVE this paw cushion! This paw cushion absolutely saves my butt. It's not super thick or as filled as you might hope. But I read reviews and was prepared for that. A little extra padding would be great, but even without it, this cushion is soft and comfy! It's still worth every dime. It's perfect if you have one of those hanging indoor/outdoor rope chairs, too! This cushion is soft, cute, and comfortable. Buy yourself this thing. You deserve it." — mandarabbit Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in two sizes and six colors). 28. A plug-in mushroom light that offers a warm, color-changing glow so your home feels like a magical forest. Time to invite over the nice badger couple next door and drink dandelion tea! Amazon Promising review: "I LOVE this night-light. It's in my bathroom and is a lovely addition. It turns off the second the lights go on which is nice that I don't have to worry about accidentally leaving it on. Super cute and the little itty-bitty lighting element does a good job lighting, just enough so I don't have to turn the main lights on in the middle of the night." — 1Thand Get it from Amazon for $5.97. 29. A shark onesie for anyone who wishes every week was shark week. The wide fin sleeves and toothy hood make this the ultimate cozy hang 'fit. Note: Reviewers mention that you should size up. Promising review: "I got this for my son, and since the day it came in, he's barely taken it off long enough for me to wash and dry it. He even sleeps in it. Needless to say, he really likes it! Great quality, too." — Jessica flores Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXXL). 30. Mr. Bubble Magic Bath Crackles that are arguably a lot more fun than regular bath salts or bombs. They work like Pop Rocks and start crackling as soon as they hit the water. Kids love them for bathtime experiments, but adults might get a kick out of the tingling sensation. Amazon Promising review: "These are like Pop Rocks, but for the bathtub. If you don't know what Pop Rocks are, I pity you! My 4-year-old son loves them and always requests them before bath time. They also make great bargaining chips for when he's being a grump and won't let mommy wash his hair. 🙄 I'd definitely recommend these." — Cyn Get it from Amazon for $19.19.

It's very sturdy and is a great, trendy replacement for plastic claw clips." — Mae Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (available in silver, gold, and as a pair). 9. Mystical Flames — a cool invention that turns your boring old fire into a rainbow fire. Camping has never felt so rave-like. Amazon, Just don't use these packets if you're planning on roasting food. Promising review: Mystical Fire Colorant is amazing. For a really fun experience, get some of these for your next camping trip. As if a campfire needs improvement... but this stuff is really neat. I'd say the adults love it even more than the kids. We only used one packet, and the colors were so good — it seems like they lasted at least 20 minutes. There was even color left in the ashes the next day. We will never go camping again without several packs of Mystical Fire on hand." — TeNe Get a pack of six from Amazon for $6.94. 10. A pack of glittery highlighters for people who want some extra ~oomph~ when they highlight a really juicy part of their textbook. Promising review: "They were complete eye candy 🍬 They are beautifully smooth and perfect. The Japanese Zebra brand has never disappointed me, and I am truly grateful. 👊❤️🔥" — Junkie4fitness Get a pack of five from Amazon for $7.40. 11. A wind-up toy shaped like a cat riding a robot vacuum. We've all seen the videos — it's time to recreate it at home. This toy is battery-free! It also comes with a little booklet. Promising review: "I think this little toy is adorable. I have it on my coffee table, and you just wind it and watch it go. I bought one for a friend, and she loved it. Cute gift for cat lovers." — T Get it from Amazon for $10.18. 12. An avocado pit planter — did you know you can score a free houseplant with every avocado purchase? The bottle is specially shaped to cradle the pit so it can access water without being completely submerged. BuzzFeed Shopping writer Mallory Mower says: "I own this! I have mine hanging in my kitchen windowsill. I've had it for ages and like the design for several things. I've successfully grown plants from avocado pits and I'm currently using it to regrow green onions. I buy green onions, chop up what I need for a recipe, throw the rest into this planter with water, and watch my green onions grow for future meals. It's great!" Promising review:"I am absolutely obsessed with this vase. I had been searching for a long time for bigger vases with a narrow neck to grow my avocado plant, and this was exactly what I needed! The bottom is nice and wide and allows so much room for root growth. The glass is not real glass; it seems like it's some type of high-quality plastic. But it still looks very nice!" — Alysia Get it from Amazon for $16.29. 13. A long-lasting temporary tattoo kit for when you're bored of your current ink situation and wanna mix it up — for a little bit, at least. Apply the ink with a stencil and the tattoo will develop over the next day to look like the real deal. Promising review:"I purchased the kit for me and my GF. This was my first time doing this kind of tattoo making, so I wasn't sure what to expect aside from having a lot of fun. Well, we had way more than fun as we started inking each other. The tattoo-making process is really easy. My tat is now six days old and still looks dark and sharp." — Golan Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes). 14. Talking Hearts — a deck of conversation cards for couples looking to deepen their connection or just pass the time on a long trip. There are 200 questions, plus two wild cards to keep conversation flowing. Promising review: "This game is so fun! My husband and I pick one card, and if the question is a little more difficult, we put it on the fridge and give each other time to answer. Has added a little more genuine conversation into our weeknights raising two girls." — Derrek & Abby Get it from Amazon for $14.99. 15. A Lego cherry blossom kit for decor you can build yourself. The 430-piece set comes with everything you need to build two stems, and at less than $15, it's a steal compared to most Lego kits. Promising review: "Great afternoon activity. All of the flower Lego sets are great for a break and getting your mind off things. We have several different flower ones in a vase, and they all seem to fit nicely together." — Jeremy Moeller Get it from Amazon for $11.99. 16. A pair of fan light pull cords so you can finally know which turns on the fan and which turns on the light. What an ~illuminating~ product! Promising review:"I'm pleased with the length and how easy it was to adjust and install. The pieces feel solid and not easily broken." — AHMH Get them from Amazon for $5.88+ (available in two lengths and three finishes). 17. A Lumon Macrodata Refinement sweatshirt for anyone who wishes they could sever — specifically for the time between Severance seasons. SandieDesignsUSA / Etsy SandieDesignsUSA is a small business based in California that sells mugs and shirts. Promising review: "It's perfect! Super comfy, true to size, great quality printed logo!" — Carissa Get it from SandieDesignsUSA on Etsy for $17.58 (available in unisex sizes S–5XL and three colors). 18. A sardine tin cosmetic bag because why should fish corner the market on cute packaging? Now your makeup, credit cards, or random baubles can enjoy the Fishwife treatment with an adorable-looking home. Amazon Promising review: "Spacious. I love this little pouch; it's so cute and even bigger than I thought it'd be." — Sarah R. Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available in 10 colors). 19. A sad duck night-light ready to cheer you up — because at least you've never felt so down you've melted into the table. My husband got me this light as a gift, and I can confirm it's very cute. If you firmly tap or squeeze it, you can toggle between three brightness settings. It's not bright enough to read by, but it works quite nicely as a night-light or for mood lighting. The legs are wiggly, which is definitely a selling point for me. Promising review: "This little lamp is BEYOND adorable. I got it as a gift for my niece, and she loved it. It's super cute, has a soft squishy texture, and has a little X for his butt. Maybe some won't like the little X, but it just adds extra cuteness. Worked right out of the box. Seemed pretty bright. Squish him, and the level changes. I can't speak to life expectancy, but it seems decent enough quality. Freaking adorable! Way better than expected." — KF Get it from Amazon for $15.99. 20. A glass butterfly ring to create the illusion that you're a fairy princess who often has sparkly butterflies land on them. All rings are size 8. Because these are made by hand, they might look a little different than the photo. Glaze Heart Studio is a small business that sells glass figurines. Get it from Glaze Heart Studio on Etsy for $16.99+ (available in seven colors). 21. An expanding file folder you can fill with up to 200 pieces of paper and free up sooo much desk space. As an accordion folder follower, I have to say these things are top-notch for organizing everything from restaurant menus to ticket stubs. Amazon Promising review: "I am going through some legal things, and this folder has been perfect for keeping all my paperwork together! And boy, can it hold a lot! The snap closure is very sturdy, and the color is spot on!! An amazing value and great quality!" — MomOf2 Get it from Amazon for $6.98+ (available in 14 colors). 22. Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel in case you've always wanted to not only drink the energizing tea, but also wear it. This cult-fave can help quickly minimize eye puffiness and swelling using its combination of caffeine and hyaluronic acid. Finally, your eyes can look and feel as refreshed as you do after a bottle of White Label. Good Molecules is a small business that sells fun beauty products. Promising review:"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, I love all the Good Molecules products." — Hayden Smith Get it from Amazon for $5.98. 23. A lotus storage container for your toothpicks or cotton swabs. Why settle for a boring glass container when you could feel like a frog princess getting ready at their floating pond vanity? Amazon Consider some pink cotton swabs or matches. Promising review:"My boyfriend is obsessed with cotton swabs. I bought him this as a gag gift, and it turned into his favorite thing. It's really cute, too!" — Andria Get it in white from Amazon for $7.99. 24. A jar of Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cinnadust seasoning if you want the best cereal flavor to extend past breakfast time. Just imagine how tasty this would be sprinkled over a hot beverage, ice cream, apple slices, or buttered toast (Cinnamon Toast Crunch cinnamon toast!). Promising review: "I would order again, 10 out of 10. Try it on yogurt, ice cream, toast, carrots, and amazingly I saw a TikTok challenge with it on hard-boiled eggs. It is stupendous!!!" — ThatGuy Get it from Amazon for $3.49+ (available in two sizes). 25. A horseshoe necklace providing a little luck — something we all desperately need right now. Your friends are sure to pony up compliments when they see this stainless steel piece in person. Promising review: "I get a lot of compliments when I wear this! I love the length of the chain." — tori Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in two finishes). 26. A cutie pie planner to help you be a busy bee, or more likely a take-it-slow sloth. There's room for appointments, errands, and people to in due time. Amazon Peter Pauper Press is a family-owned small business founded in 1928. Promising review: "I am absolutely in love. I have always struggled with being overwhelmed with to-do lists (both having them in my mind and making them). This cute, fun design makes that task less daunting and easier, thanks to how it's organized. It lets me divide tasks up into immediate needs and tasks to do eventually, as well as gives me a space for appointments and reminders for calling people. I also thoroughly enjoy the mood marker and the 'how was your day' section, as it also helps me track my mood. I absolutely adore this, and it will be a positive permanent addition to my life." — River Get it from Amazon for $5.95. 27. A Nooni tinted appleberry lip oil if you're sick of lippies that leave your pout feeling sticky, dry, or messy. The apple seed and raspberry extract-infused oil offers long-lasting hydration and a touch of color without you having to stress about it transferring or smudging. This lip oil is vegan, cruelty-free, and has no parabens, sulfates, or phthalates. Promising review: "This is the first lip oil I've ever used. Usually, I avoid anything with oil because I have very sensitive and generally oilier skin, but I wanted to give this a try because I wanted something sheer and pretty for a natural makeup look. Probably the best purchase I've ever made!!! It's super sheer and looks fine on its own without any other makeup. The smell is delicious, and while the gloss dries and fades after about an hour or two without eating, the color stays all day! I did have to reapply after eating, but not after drinking water! I just wish it was bigger; it's a teeny bottle. Would definitely buy again!!" — Rachel Get it from Amazon for $12 (available in 12 shades, a jumbo size, and multipacks). 28. A birria bomb — a delicious spin on the bath bomb. Dunk one of these spice balls into a pressure cooker with meat and water for a comforting consomme ready for dipping. In a way, these really are bath bombs, but for tacos and quesadillas. The birria bombs are made with arbol, ancho, and guajillo and make enough broth for 5–7 people. Reviewers say to use beef broth instead of water for a bigger punch of flavor. Promising review: "Cooking the birria was super simple: just meat, water, and bombs. Sooo tasty. Better than the ones from our local restaurants. I cooked it range top and did have to add additional water to ensure enough consomme, but so worth it." — Justin Get two balls from Amazon for $19.99. 29. A sticker book filled with grouchy-looking cats. I would ask why they're so upset, but we all know cats never need a reason. You can have fun placing these directly in the sightline of anyone bugging you that day. >:( Amazon Each cat comes with a speech bubble and a mean one-liner. Promising review: " My brother is a cat lover, and the stickers are big and beautiful. This is his favorite Christmas present from me." — C. Wong Get it from Amazon for $8. 30. Burn After Writing — a guided journal with questions and thought experiments that encourage readers to reflect, explore their feelings, and get to know themselves a little deeper. Reviewers say it's a stress reliever! Promising review: "I first saw this book on TikTok and decided to look more into it. I purchased four total because I know some people holding onto things that are difficult to let go of. It's a great way to look at things from a different perspective and truly hold yourself accountable to different things in your life. I love what it stands for, and I look forward to when I burn mine after I'm done. Self-love, self-care, and meditation for a better state of mind tomorrow are always the goal. I definitely recommend it to those susceptible to change and the willingness to try things differently. You're so much more than what's been done to you, and someone's inability to see your worth does not decrease your value. Choose you for a change." — Brent Helm Get it from Amazon for $7.22. 31. A crochet bookmark shaped like a lil' veggie friend ready to encourage (or harshly judge) your reading journey. Amazon Promising review:"So fun, the perfect bookmark for a mushroom/nature loving bookworm." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $9.96+ (available in five styles and multipacks). 32. A bar of quadruple-milled, shea butter-infused French soap to give yourself the gift of the most luxurious bathing experience ever. It comes with a ton of wonderful scents (lavender! lemon mojito! sea salt!), so you could also just drop it in your sock drawer (#grandmahack). Amazon Pré de Provence is a small business that sells fancy toiletries made by French artisans. Promising review:"I generally make my own soaps and body butters due to having extremely sensitive skin, but I have completely fallen in love with this line. The lather is luxuriously ample yet gentle. The scent fills the bathroom but does not linger heavily on the body. It leaves my skin clean and soft — not dry as most bar soaps do. I highly recommend the Rose and Mirabelle scents. These bars are quadruple-milled, so they do last a while." — NoIWontPutMyName Get it from Amazon for $10.99 (available in five sizes and 39 scents). 33. An 18k gold-plated cherry keychain because dropping almost $100 on the one from Coach is honestly kind of ridiculous. Reviewers say this one is almost identical! Promising review: " When I initially bought it, I was nervous that the brass color wasn't going to match with my coach bag, but once it arrived, it was perfect; it looks almost like the real one and doesn't feel cheap at all, I'm very happy with my purchase, and I'd 100% recommend this to someone looking for an alternative to the Coach cherry charm!" — Veronica G. Get it from Amazon for $14.99. Reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.

If You're Looking For Cheaper Versions Of Your Favorite Brand Name Products, These 46 Are Cult-Faves

1. E.l.f.'s Hydrating Core Lip Shine in the "Ecstatic" shade, which reviewers say captures the some magic as " Black Honey," the $25 ~universal shade~ from Clinique that's blowing up on TikTok at a fraction of the price. It doesn't shift colors as magically as the other version, but it's a perfect, non-sticky "go-to" lip to keep in all your favorite bags. I personally will live, breathe, and die by the magic of $25 "universal" Black Honey version — it lasts FOREVER and also functions as the perfect blush — but it sells out so often that I am also deeply relieved to know it has a cheap alternative in case of lip emergency! Promising review: "I absolutely love this product. The dark color is perfectly sheer. It also adds the most beautiful color to your lips. I am a Clinique Black Honey lip fan, and this gives me the same look for a fraction of the cost. I love it and have multiple that I keep in various spots. Not sticky either, which is my biggest gripe about lip glosses. My hair doesn't get stuck in this like some glosses, but I get the shine." — Hamps5 Get it from Amazon for $7 (available in seven shades). 2. And Moodmatcher color-changing lipstick, an affordable WinkyLux alternative that not only adapts to the pH of your skin to create a personalized, perfect shade for your skin tone, but lasts for HOURS. Reviewers marvel at its all-day staying power even after meals and breaking a sweat. Look at that lil' green lipstick go!! Amazon Moodmatcher is a small business that specializes in color-changing lipstick. Promising review:"This color is beautiful, and shows up differently on everyone. This thing that I like most about this product, is that it stays on all day even through eating multiple meals. I have to use a microfiber cloth to remove it at night!" — Rasheda Get it from Amazon for $6.59 (available in nine shades). 3. A TikTok-famous "Soft" perfume rollerball that honestly has no right smelling so delectable and layering so well considering it's only five cash dollars. Reviewers are obsessed with the scent's warm sweetness with a hint of citrusy zest, comparing it to waffle cones, lemon pound cake, and warm vanilla scones ... and this $65 bottle of Pink Sugar 👀. Promising review: "Like so many, I found this scent on TikTok. I was a bit skeptical at first but finally got around to trying it. First off, this scent smells amazing! Almost every time I've worn it, I receive compliments. It has a sweet smell, almost like warm cake or sugar cookies with a hint of lemon. With such an affordable price, I would definitely recommend this to anyone curious about trying it." — Chrissy Get it from Amazon for $7.30 (available in two styles). 4. A pair of waterproof wireless earbuds with AirPods Pro energy — except these feature a charging case that, bless its technologically savvy heart, has an LED display letting you know exactly how much charge is left. Reviewers also love how delightfully comfortable and sweatproof these are, making them a solid, affordable option for talking on the phone and exercising. Promising review: "I use these every day at work! Love these — easy to learn and to use. Best thing about them? Well, everything, lol. Good sound, they hold a charge for long periods, and I don't have to worry about them losing power. I can answer my phone easily and then go back to music without a problem. Definitely a great buy and worth the money! Love this color, too!" — Erin Get it from Amazon for $35.99 (available in eight colors). 5. And a pair of wireless over-the-ear headphones crafted to look like AirPods Max, so you can still enjoy the comfort and chic style of their iconic headphones without shelling out hundreds of dollars. These feature premium cushion padding, a built-in mic with the ability to take calls, 10 hours of playtime per charge, and surprisingly decent noise blocking for the price. iJoy is a small business that specializes in headphones and tech accessories. I own a pair of these, and because I'm vain as heck and need to own all things pink, but I was decently surprised by how well they muffle noise! I feel like these are ideal for people who still want to hear some of the world around them (read: parents, people working in open offices), but still want to listen to their tunes comfortably. The charge on these goes for at least four hours (I haven't tried it beyond that yet), and the Bluetooth connects to my devices super easily. Excellent pair of headphones for the price point. Promising review: "These headphones surprised me. I thought they were not going to be as great because of how cheap they are, but the bass is amazing! The noise cancellation is so good that I can't hear anything. The volume is loud and sound quality is a win, and just how I like it. Very snug and comfy, recommend! Thanks TikTok, lol :)." — Chevelle Revero Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in five colors). 6. A ridiculously high quality oversized cropped puffer jacket reviewers are not only obsessed with, but compare to the Aritzia version for a fraction of the price. This insulated, cozy, trendy puffer is perfect for anyone whose motto is "Go go go!!! ... As cutely as possible, of course." Amazon It even features an adjustable drawstring at the bottom for a personalized fit! Promising review: "I had no idea I would love this as much as I do. First of all, the cut is superb. Cropped yet oversized. It's super warm and cozy. I literally grab this five out of six times. Today I ordered it in red! You need this. You want this. You shall have it!" — Cassidy Barbeau Get it from Amazon for $36.50+ (available in women's sizes XS–L and 16 colors). 7. A Baccarat Rouge 540-inspired moisturizing body wash infused with white jasmine, red currant, and sweet amber that reviewers swear by for a cheap alternative to keep that delectably luxe scent on them all day long. Nothing wrong with smelling a lil' ~~expensive~~! Amazon, Emma Lord/BuzzFeed I bought this after being peer-pressured by all the lovely reviews, and I'm happy to report it lives up to the hype. The scent is lovely — it has depth with a hint of floral, but it's light and not at all overpowering. My favorite thing about it is how easily it pairs other scents, because I am a body mist gremlin who swaps out her scents every day. The lather is also deeply satisfying and I feel quite refreshed and squeaky clean without ever feeling dry. Promising review:"Cremo's body wash is nothing short of exceptional. If you're a fan of luxurious fragrances, this product will quickly become your new favorite. It boasts an incredible scent that perfectly mimics Baccarat Rouge 540 — a fragrance renowned for its sophisticated and captivating aroma. What sets this body wash apart is not just its stunning scent but also its longevity. The fragrance lingers beautifully throughout the day, ensuring you stay enveloped in that luxurious aroma long after your shower." — Ralph D. Thompson II Get it from Amazon for $9.99. 8. A stylish fitness smartwatch that's a chic, affordable, user-friendly version of all the tricked-out expensive ones that aren't half as cute anyway. This water-resistant watch not only takes calls and texts and monitors your sleep, but has 70 different activity modes for fitness tracking, including the ability to track your heart rate, steps, and calories for each workout. Promising review: "This watch is elegant and simple all at once. Can be worn with any genre of clothing. Easy to use and has all the sort after features. Love the sleep monitoring app. Great value at price point. Functions like expensive brands." — Barbara Hubbard Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in five colors). 9. Catrice "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener, which will be your holy grail for concealing and brightening dark circles under your eyes when new schedules are throwing you for a loop. This lightweight, color-adapting formula is designed for truly ~invisible~ coverage that makes a drastic difference — one that a lot of reviewers compare to the $33 Becca version. The color-adaptive formula is designed so one of two shades will work on any skin tone. 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." — Monica T. Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in four shades). 10. A pair of ~dreamlux~ leggings made with an oh-so-buttery soft material reviewers compare to Lululemon's Align ... but WAY cheaper. If you're looking for a reliably squatproof, comfy, compressive legging, look no further than these. Amazon I bought these on Prime Day, which is the only day I will buy leggings because I hate wearing leggings with a burning passion. My "I'm not like other girls" bit is that for some reason I am always comfier in jeans than leggings. BUT NOT THESE!!! They slide on. The fabric is so lightweight and breathable that it feels like a whisper. The band is so deceptively comfortable that sometimes I'm like, "Am I still wearing them??" I use them to run outdoors because that is the only circumstance I'll wear a legging, and I'm happy to report after several washes, they are durable and compressive enough to withstand workouts. They would be excellent for lounging if I weren't wired in this odd anti-legging way. I have already bought two more pairs and made my friends buy them, too. Promising review:"Super comfy. I usually don't write reviews, I tried this first before buying Lulu, and these are the most comfortable leggings for every day and even for workouts. Highly recommended!" — Criselle Johnson Get them from Amazon for $26 (available in women's sizes XXS–XXL, two inseams, and 22 styles). 11. L'Oréal Paris BB Cream, a FAST-acting, anti-redness moisturizer with results that feel like legitimate magic — especially considering its competitor, the Dr Jart+ Cicapair Color Correcting Cream, is over twice as expensive. Reviewers especially love this as a base for their makeup, because it leaves skin super soft and primed. Promising review: "I'd yet to find anything (even foundation) that could cover up my red areas. Cheeks, chin, nose, and forehead. It comes out green, but has a gorgeous lightweight finish of a tint that indeed covers my redness beautifully. There's no greasiness to it at all. It dries down to a beautiful matte finish. It's super easy to use. I use my fingers. The texture is like silk. It leaves my face baby-soft, not sticky at all. It doesn't settle into my fine lines or wrinkles, and I don't need powder to 'bake' it under my eyes. It also covers the black circles under my eyes." — Julie F. Get it from Amazon for $9.08 (available in four styles). 12. An oversize, lightweight knit button-up cardigan with a vibe reviewers compare to the beloved Jenni Kayne "Cocoon" cardigan. This is just *begging* to be layered with all your coziest looks, and it this price point, it might be an investment to grab a few colors to have on hand 👀 . Promising review: "The sweater is extremely comfortable and high quality, and the color selections were awesome. I chose the cognac color which is kind of a taupe-ish brownish color. Bought it to match some khaki boots, and the match was terrific. The pockets are nice. The sweater is roomy. The sleeves are a good length. The thickness is perfect for warmth without being overly bulky. I really like this sweater and will order more colors." — Alana Mohacsi Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in women's sizes XS–XL and 16 styles). 13. E.l.f's brand new Lash XTNDR Tubing Mascara, a GODSEND for anyone with thin or fragile lashes. This uses lightweight ~tubing~ technology to wrap around lashes and give them a natural-looking, smudge-proof extension so good it almost looks fake. The real boon, though, is how easily the "tubes" slide off in clean, easy swipes at the end of the day when you're washing your face — absolutely no smudging, over-scrubbing, or special eye makeup removal products required. Check out a TikTok of the E.l.f. tubing mascara in action. I am not a new human to the tubing mascara game, and in fact readily spent $26 on the famous OG blend from Blinc every time it needed replacing. I didn't even love it for the length half as much as the fact that tubing mascara like this genuinely never smudges, but can I just say — regardless of price, the E.l.f. tubing mascara formula blows all the others I've tried out of the water. It gives me way more length and volume than other brands, slides on so much more easily, stays put ALL day, and never, ever smudges. My favorite part, though, is how gently and easily it comes off with soap and water. In the past, other mascara removals have felt rough on my lashes, but this comes off so fast that I'm like ??? was I even wearing mascara a minute ago?? Anyway, I hesitate even writing this review because I want to gatekeep the hell out of this before it sells out, but the world needed to know. I'm a big fan of the brown shade (which is what I'm wearing above!), but it also comes in black and soft black. Get it from Amazon for $7 (available in three shades). 14. A classic herringbone necklace so close in style to the Tiffany HardWear version that you might blink and mistake it for the real thing (imagine being able to drop $13,000 human dollars on a necklace though, MY STARS). Promising review: "I've been thinking about purchasing the Tiffany version of this necklace, but when I saw this one, I decided to purchase it. So glad I did. It is beautiful and very substantial. When I first put it on, couldn't believe the weight, in a good way. Feels and looks expensive, and the color of the gold is perfect, in my opinion; not too yellow or orangey. Love, love, love this necklace!!!" — FAXA10 Get it from Amazon for $19.94 (available in six styles). 15. A bottle of Elizavecca Hair Treatment, an Olaplex-like repairing mask infused with collagen ingredients and protein extracts that will help restore hair health and reduce shedding. All you gotta do is apply it on wet hair after a shampoo, wait five minutes, and rinse it out. This is designed to work on all hair types, with reviewers with 2b to 4c curls mentioning it worked for them! Promising review:"Like many others, I tried this as a replacement for Olaplex. Honestly, Olaplex never had a great effect on my hair and certainly wasn't worth the price. This did an unreal job on my hair!! I was skeptical (tried a little bit first because I was petrified it would burn off my hair and I would end up bald!) but, lo and behold, it was magic! My hair is so strong, silky, and healthy looking after just one use. Plus you can't beat the price! Have already ordered another box. I should also add I have curly/wavy hair that's been colored to a light brown. Buy it!!" — BB Check out BuzzFeed's full review of the Elizavecca hair treatment for more deets! Get a bottle from Amazon for $7.62. 16. Etude's delightfully multipurpose Dear Darling Water Tint, which a lot of reviewers compare to Benefit's Lip Tint. This smudgeproof formula is designed primarily to be a natural-looking, weightless lip stain, but reviewers use it as a blush as well! Promising review: "I bought the Benefit version a couple of months ago and was very underwhelmed by it, but this product is sooo soo much better than Benetint. The pigment is so good and natural at the same time. A 10/10 for sure. And at this price point what's there not to like?" — Rachael Get it from Amazon for $7.40+ (available in three shades and combo packs). 17. A pair of classic round polarized sunglasses so you can have the elevated look of Ray-Bans without the constant fear of losing $300 sunglasses somewhere because you got distracted squinting at a meme on Instagram. Promising review:"Sojos have been my number one choice of sunnies for years now. Even if Ray-Bans were this price, I'd still choose Sojos. They are high end quality without the price tag, lightweight yet durable, truly polarized, fashionable, comfortable, the list goes on! They are the best of the best, don't hesitate, just buy them!" — maggie Get it from Amazon for $12.74+ (available in eight styles). 18. L'Oréal Paris Makeup True Match Lumi Glotion designed to enhance your skin's natural ✨ glow✨ just like the pricy Drunk Elephant drops — perfect for anyone who wants a lightweight alternative to foundation or just a lil' extra low-effort, ethereal shimmer in their lives. Promising review:"Love love love this stuff. This is such a stellar product that is so versatile. Can be worn alone to put some glowy life to skin. Add to foundation or layer it. Beautiful. Use it as a base where you put highlighter on top. Mix some with moisturizer. This, in my opinion, is better than so many high-luxury brands that make similar products. And I am pretty sure it can be used by all skin types. It's not an oily feeling at all, and it doesn't dry out the skin either. Just a total package. Can't beat the price either." — Figgy08 Get it from Amazon for $13.98+ (available in five shades). 19. An affordable cult-favorite luxury-scented candle with a scent reminiscent of Le Labo's Santal 33, and a throw so satisfying that reviewers can't stop gushing about it. If you're in the market for a signature scent for your space, look no further than this jasmine, oud, and sandalwood blend. Lulu Candles is a US-based small business that specializes in scented candles and perfumes. Promising review: "This is such a great candle that fills the room quickly with a really nice strong smell that is soothing and relaxing. I was looking for a less expensive Le Labo Santal 33 scent candle, and this one is very, very close! It's a bit stronger, but I love it! The shipment arrived fast, and I just love how fast it fills up the room without being lit for so long!" — Cristina Bertolotto Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (available in four sizes, in gift box options, in packs of two, and in a variety of scents). 20.

This is the perfect "spray and go" fix for anyone who gets busy — teens, travelers, athletes, and professionals who wear a face mask or gear swear by this for keeping their skin clear. Amazon, Check out a TikTok of the SkinSmart Facial Spray in action. Promising review:"This products is the best thing ever invented. I spray it every time I sweat, go outside, or am in an environment that is not the cleanest. It's literally hand sanitizer but for the face. So worth it! This is way better than the expensive versions like Tower 28." — Isabella Hinojosa Get it from Amazon for $17.46. 21. An adorable, roomy duffel bag that's practically *screaming* "take me on a weekend trip," — people compare this durable, water-resistant option to Herschel's duffel and love that it comes with long handles for easy maneuvering and a side panel to hook it to a roll-on suitcase. Bonus: it's small enough to use as a "personal item" on flights!! Amazon, Promising review: "This bag is amazing!! It's the perfect size for all my gym stuff. Clothes, shoes, water bottle, pre-workout, headphones, toiletries, etc., and it can be made smaller or bigger height-wise with these little buttons they have on the side that you can snap down. Very cute. It also has some inside mesh pockets to help separate things better. If you thinking about it, just buy it! You won't regret it." — Sarah Brackenrich Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in two sizes and dozens of colors). 22. A Skims-inspired seamless, compressive ribbed bodycon jumpsuit reviewers love as the ultimate year-round layering piece, pairing it with button-ups, crop tops, and oversize sweaters. Promising review: "RUN. Don't walk. I never write reviews but legit as soon as I put this on, I knew I had to share with the world. So surprisingly thick (no fear of see through) and stretchy. The ribbed texture is fun and gives that extra snatch effect." — bmg Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in women's sizes S–L and and 10 colors). 23. A six-piece (!!) set of high-performance matte lipsticks at a *fraction* of the price of its competitors that stays the heck put without drying or cracking your lips by the end of the day. (Seriously, reviewers are DRAGGING major brands in their comments, these are so cheap and effective.) Promising review: "What can I say, I saw a TikTok about this lipstick, and for $10 had to try it! The reviews are right, for some reason, this lipstick is better than even $20 name-brand ones bought from Ulta. Not only does it smell great, but dries in under a minute and survived eating a cupcake, a Starbucks drink, and an entire evening out, no smudging, and had to be removed with a makeup wipe. Fantastic product!!" — Claire Get a six-piece set from Amazon for $8.99 (available in seven sets). 24. A pair of oversize fleece cargo joggers complete with POCKETS (just like the Nike version 👀), and made with a cotton blend so satisfyingly soft that it'll be a miracle if you ever pull yourself out of Lounge Hound Mode again. Promising review: "High-quality baggy sweatpants. I love them so much I also bought four different colors. I wanted the slightly baggy, hang off my mid-waist look. They are very warm and soft inside. They have not changed size since washing and drying." — MacBethany Get it from Amazon for $36.99 (available in women's sizes S–XL and five colors). 25. A sophisticated, minimalist-style sunrise alarm clock to gently ease you into waking every morning by gradually lightening the room so you're not JOLTED awake in a dark room if you've got the curtains drawn or wake up at odd hours. This model compares to the Hatch Sleep version for $170, both in aesthetics and because it also offers fully customizable wake-up experience, complete with timing, brightness modes, and soothing sounds. Promising review:"I wanted this clock for the sunrise lighting affect and didn't want to pay for the really expensive clocks. I think it's aesthetically pleasing and has tons of options. It really does help you wake up softer with the sunrise light. It's easy to use and a good value for your money!" — Brianna Hughes Get it from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in three styles). 26. E.l.f. Soft Glam Foundation for full coverage with that "barely there" look — it glides on so smooth and has such a satin-y finish that it'll just look like your skin with some subtle dewy glow ✨. Reviewers compare this easy-to-apply formula to a lot of much more expensive, higher-end brands! Promising review: "This is now my favorite foundation hands down. It has such a dewy natural finish. Medium to full coverage yet still lightweight. It could go up against higher end brands for less than $10. I'm a huge fan of all of E.l.f.'s products. Great quality and very affordable." — kimberly Get it from Amazon for $8+ (available in 39 shades). 27. A sophisticated laptop tote bag so you can easily (and chicly!) carry not just your tech, but the whole arsenal of I'm A Very Busy Business Person things you need to get through the day. Reviewers compare this to the $$ Beis version, and especially love the unexpected depth and pockets included. Promising review: "It's much more spacious than it looks. It's very sleek and stylish. I use it as my work bag and I find that it looks professional and has enough space for all of my stuff. I carry a laptop, pencil case, two books, makeup bag, water bottle, wallet, lotion, phone and laptop charger, and other small miscellaneous objects. Still plenty of space. And when you see carry it, it doesn't feel bulky or cumbersome. The bag does sag a bit after use. But has held up to wear and tear. I would recommend." — Su Get it from Amazon for $34.86+ (available in nine styles). 28. A high-quality, *just* compressive enough layering T-shirt reviewers love so much that a ton of them tried it and immediately ordered more colors to stock up. This shirt is double-lined but still feels lightweight on the skin, giving a sophisticated, expensive look with a casual feel. Reviewers compare it to Skims at a fraction of the price! Promising review: "At first, I was a little skeptical — I have been wanting to find a Skims-like material shirt for a while but didn't want to pay the price of one, LOL, and this shirt feels amazing. I will be getting one in every color now." — Julianne Get it from Amazon for $8.49+ (available in women's sizes XXS–3X and in 33 colors). 29. A Petcube, which is basically a Furbo without all the extra bells and whistles — this super-reliable pet-monitoring camera has a wide angle and night vision so you can check on your pet 24/7 and even talk to them, giving you a whole new peace of mind whenever you leave the house. Amazon Check out a TikTok of the Petcube in action. Petcube is a California-based small business established in 2012 that specializes in interactive HD pet camera products. It's also app-enabled and can send you instant notifications, sync with Amazon Alexa, and even access a vet on demand if you notice any weird behaviors. Promising review: "Unbeatable for the money. I needed a way to keep an eye on a new 4-month-old puppy who kept digging holes in my yard. I didn't expect a lot for $39, but I was pleasantly surprised. The video is quick to get started and very clear, zoom is quick, and the night vision actually works. I haven't used any of the other features yet, but these alone make this a great value! Far exceeding what I expected." — Rick Grisham Get it from Amazon for $31.99 (available in multipacks and with a subscription). 30. E.l.f.'s new sheer tint, hyaluronic acid-infused moisturizing "Squeeze Me" lip balm that comes in flavors like Vanilla Frosting, Honeydew, and Peach. We deserve an affordable way to perpetually taste like birthday cake!! Emma Lord/BuzzFeed, Amazon I love love love this lip balm. I compare it to the $24 version from Summer Fridays, which I've been splurging on — I love that brand because it lasts so long and is so high quality, but this $4 E.l.f. version feels comparable and, more excitingly, comes in smaller versions so I can stock my totes and bathroom with them whether I'm at home or on the go. It's hydrating, lightweight, doesn't get sticky, and adds a perfect ~subtle~ gloss whether I'm using it alone or on top of a lip color. I love the vanilla flavor so much, it's got a similar vibe to the birthday cake flavor that Glossier sometimes carries. Promising review:"BUY IT, you won't regret it! After purchasing some of the more expensive Laneige ones, I decided to try this lip balm. I feel like these work so much better, and for so much less money! I'm obsessed with the scents and the formula is non-sticky, in my opinion, just a good slick balm. Peach smells like the peach ring candies, and honeydew actually reminds me of the old B&BW scent Cucumber Melon." — Kelly Get it from Amazon for $4 (available in five flavors). 31. A two-slice touch screen toaster with all the fanciness of the $350 TikTok-famous version and none of the "YIKESSSSS" of the price tag. This lets you select seven different toastiness levels for your bread, and specify if you're putting other carbs in there, like bagels, English muffins, waffles, and even gluten-free bread. Promising review:"I love this toaster! It has all the options I need: lifter, countdown timer, visual icon of the toast colors, and all the toast varieties anyone could want, from white to grain to bagel to waffle to English muffin to gluten-free. It not only has reheat and defrost options, you can even add more toasting time, too. Truly, it has all the bells and whistles anyone could want and is easy to use." — Tanya Feddern-Bekcan Get it from Amazon for $50.55+ (available in two colors and in a four-slice toaster style). 32. An oversize lightweight quilted vest that compares to an expensive mall brand, and has already become a reviewer "must-have" for transitional weather. Amazon, Promising review: "I love this oversize puffer vest! It is exactly how described. It is oversized for winter comfort. It is puffy with just the right puff. It has become a daily go-to. I enjoy it very much! I will be looking for another color to repurchase again. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for exactly what they have described." — Alyssa Anderson Get it from Amazon for $28.99 (available in women's sizes S–XL and 10 styles). 33. A compressive cropped zip-up workout jacket so chic that you'll want to stock up on them not just for workouts, but errand running and days when your schedule is just "go go go." This is a great way to add some Lululemon-esque pieces to your rotation without breaking the bank! Promising review:"Lululemon WHOOOO? Great quality, washed well with my regular laundry. Retained it color and shape. I wore it for a back day at the gym and it was extremely comfortable/durable, no issues! I will keep buying these crop jackets. Also if you have a bigger chest I suggest you size up!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in women's sizes XS–XL and 13 styles). 34. Juno & Co.'s Clean 10 Cleansing Balm, a game-changing makeup remover made with a blend of pearl barley and vitamin E that reviewers adore for getting that ✨ CLEAN clean✨ feeling — it's designed to leave zero residue or oiliness, *plus* brighten skin and reduce hyperpigmentation and dark spots. People compare it to pricey versions like Farmacy Green Clean, Dermalogica, and Elemis! Amazon, Juno & Co. is a small business specializing in personal care and skincare products. Promising review:"I've loved the Farmacy Green Clean for many years, but at $30+ for a jar that lasts 1-2 months max, it was a pricey product to buy on a regular basis. I wanted something just as good at a lower price and I FOUND IT! This cleanser absolutely melts away makeup and deep cleans the skin without any drying or eye irritation! It smells great and a little goes a loooonng way — I'm in love!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $14.99. 35. A hydrating, plumping lip glow oil reviewers compare to the cult-fave Dior Lip Oil ... that is, if it were a FRACTION of the price 👀. Promising review: "I will no longer pay $40 for the Dior lip oil. It smells the same. It's not sticky, but stays on. This is a great glossy look that feels comfortable." — Brianna Clark Get it from Amazon for $3.99+ (available in four shades and in two-packs). 36. L'Oréal Paris Collagen Daily Face Moisturizer so intensely hydrating, plumping, and smoothing that reviewers compare it to the $92 Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream 👀. Not only is this super effective (and affordable!) for use overnight *and* overtime, but its nongreasy formula makes it play super well with makeup. Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE this product. The texture is just like the CT Magic Cream. It is super rich but doesn't make the skin feel greasy. I have extremely sensitive/acne prone skin and this doesn't break me out at all. I have been using it for about two years now and I will never stop using it. Super inexpensive and works wonders!" — Monica S. Get it from Amazon for $10.49 (available in two sizes, and unscented and fragranced). 37. A lightweight embroidered jacket that somehow makes a statement while matching everything in your closet, making it so perfectly layerable that the outfit potential is infinite. As an added bonus, reviewers say this makes an *excellent* lookalike to the version at a more expensive mall brand 👀. Amazon, Promising review:"GIRRRRRLLL — YES!!! Obsessed with this!!! The fit is interesting — I got a medium as suggested for an oversize fit, but honestly I think a large would have been better for me. I still love this jacket, though — quality is amazing, and it's such a stand out piece!" — Lauren Get it from Amazon for $52.79 (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and 12 styles). 38. A bottle of Nyx matte setting spray for anyone who wants the all-day protection of Mac and Urban Decay's setting sprays without the price tag — this matte finish will lock your look in place in just a few seconds, even on days when the sun is trying to melt you like an ice pop. Promising review:"Expensive isn't always better. I tried this spray before spending the day outdoors in 90-degree heat at Disneyland, and the only place my makeup moved was on the tip of my nose because I have allergies and use a lot of Kleenex. But otherwise it looked as fresh as it did when I put it on. I've used Mac and Urban Decay setting spray and they never worked as well as this stuff. I am completely amazed. Definitely give it a try." — Stephanie Get it from Amazon for $9.97 (also available in dewy and radiant finishes, and a jumbo size). 39. E.l.f. Power Grip Primer, an inexpensive alternative for Milk's Hydro Grip primer and a *godsend* for makeup lovers of all skin types, particularly those dealing with dry, flaky, or acne-prone skin. Once you apply this and let it set for 30 seconds, not only will it grip your makeup in place, but the hyaluronic acid will help moisturize and plump your skin to improve its texture over time. Promising reviews:"I wanted to try this for the longest time and I finally got it and I was not disappointed. I highly recommend this product, especially if you have dry skin. This is my favorite primer to use now. Works so well and helps with making your makeup look almost flawless. Highly recommend it." — Megan Lindstrom "I tried the Milk primer and it worked magic for my super oily skin. I came across this for a fraction of the cost. The Milk primer was $34 this does the same job for way less. I am happy with my purchase." — Shenelle Get it from Amazon for $9.99. 40. A pair of zippered lace-up combat boots that are giving some real Doc Martens energy, and will add an instant edge or new dimension to an outfit so you'll never accidentally walk out looking ~boring~ ever again. Promising review: "Bought these to replace some knockoff Doc Martens I had before, because they are versatile with many outfits — especially this past fall and winter. So far these have been comfortable, great during winter at work and at home, and while a little stiff at first they do get some flexibility over time. They are not a soft, pliable fake leather. It's pretty straight. So if that's what you're looking for these are great!" — Valerie Mills Get it from Amazon for $35.09 (available in women's sizes 5.5–10 and four styles). 41. A cozy mockneck half-zip pullover that will make fans of Lululemon go 👀 — this has the same soft, comfy, but elevated vibe of their version, at a fraction of the price. Amazon, Promising review: "I now have two of these fleeces and I am obsessed. The fit and crop is perfect and the fleece is high quality and so so warm and soft. I've worn it, hiking, pair it with jeans and dressed it up a bit or even work from home in the winter." — Ali Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in women's sizes S–XL and eight colors). 42. A Revlon one-step hair dryer and volumizer to dry your hair as you style it and give your 'do an incredible amount of volume and shine, without the cost of a pricey blowout. Psst — reviewers compare this to the $599 (!!) Dyson Airwrap. Unlike other hair dryers, this one can be held closer to the roots and scalp for a higher volume and lift and helps you curl hair at the end while it dries. It comes with three heat settings and is designed to work on all hair textures — reviewers with 2a–4c hair mentioned it working for them, and especially noted that it helps cut down on drying time! Promising reviews:"I've had my eye on a Dyson Airwrap, but given the cost, I figured I'd try this while I save up. This thing is fantastic. I have waist length hair that's naturally straight, but gets frizzy when damp. I've had salon blowouts that have left my hair looking great, but I simply can't manage a round brush without it getting tangled in my hair. This device has been a game changer. It works best if you air dry for a while before you use it, then use it to finish your style. My hair miraculously doesn't get snarled in it, and it leaves my hair looking like I've had it professionally styled. I love it, and I'm no longer interested in blowing $500 on a Dyson. Highly recommend!" — Ilsa Get it from Amazon for $31.98 (available in three styles and eight colors). 43. A ~weightless~ liquid cream blush with some real Rare Beauty blush energy that's having a whole moment and a half on Amazon right now. Reviewers adore how high-pigmented and blendable the colors are and how soft and dewy the effect is on their skin. Promising review: "Creamy and blendable. These are great blushes and have lots of pigmentation. Very creamy and has a smooth application on the skin! It is a great [alternative] to the Rare Beauty blush. It lasted me the whole day and did not melt off. It has a lot of coverage and does not need too much when applying." — Harsh Argawal Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in five shades and in sets). 44. A Lululemon-adjacent lightweight backpack so waterproof that it's a *must-buy* for frequent travelers or anyone with chaotic commutes. This minimalist-inspired gem has an unexpected amount of space, including a laptop compartment, internal pockets, and a hidden front compartment. Promising review:"My backpack is absolutely essential for getting through my work day. It fits everything I need, from my laptop and charger to notebooks, pens, and even a snack or two. The compartments keep everything organized, so I'm never scrambling to find what I need. It's comfortable to wear, even when fully loaded, making my commute a breeze. Honestly, I can't imagine my workday without it!" — kody craig Get it from Amazon for $21.99 (available in two sizes and 10 colors). 45. A trio of hydrating lip sleeping masks for three Laneige-like masks in *one* — this even comes in four different flavor combos so you can split them among friends, if you're feeling generous ✨. Promising review: " This is the most moisturizing lip treatment in the market. When my lips started getting dry due to the cold season I was thinking of buying the Laneige lip mask, but it's soooo expensive. This is a fraction of the cost and feels just the same. Very good product." — Riya Get it from Amazon for $9.90 (available in six combos). 46. A waffle weave "shacket" with similar energy to the American Eagle version. This cozy number is lightweight and easy to pack, and will be a chic little lifesaver when a chilly breeze sneaks up on you during all that in-between ??? weather. Promising reviews: "Perfect closet staple! Looks great buttoned or unbuttoned and layered. Comfortable and cute! Long enough for leggings! Oversized fit." — stephanie canter "Love this! Exactly like the American eagle one." — Anuhea Get it from Amazon for $26.88+ (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 14 colors). Reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.
