33 Things To Make Your Life Seem Put-Together
A no-scrub weekly shower cleaner that'll stop soap scum and residue from forming before they have a chance to take over your entire tub. Just spray and walk away — your future self will be so grateful. A pack of hypoallergenic body wipes for the days when you need to skip the shower and take the lazy route instead. We've all been there. These are infused with aloe so your skin will feel refreshed, clean, and silky smooth! And a pack of highly rated facial cleaning wipes that's perfect when you simply can't be bothered to use an actual cleanser. You'll look clean and refreshed enough to fool everyone into thinking you did your full skin care routine. Promising review: "I like the way the [Olay] feels on my face after using it to clean up my makeup and especially my waterproof mascara. It does not leave my skin feeling dry. It's very easy to use and great on nights when you don't wanna wash your face cause you've been out having a great time." —SimoneGet a pack of 25 from Amazon for $6.51 (available in a three-pack). A mini bottle of touch-up paint to mask any scratches or scuffs on your walls and furniture... and to make sure you get that security deposit back. You can use it directly on wood or to freshen up existing paint, so don't be surprised if you get the urge to roam around your home looking for cabinets, shutters, and floorboards to spruce up. A wrinkle releaser and fabric-freshening spray that describes itself as an "iron in a bottle" — and over 34,000 Amazon reviewers swear by it. It'll help you get rid of all those creases and crinkles with just a few simple sprays, so it's perfect for when you can't be bothered to pull out the iron. Promising review: "This is literally like an iron in a bottle. It's fantastic. This morning my shirt had a crease from being folded but I didn't have time to change, so I misted just one spray on the shirt, shook it out while I was wearing it, and the crease was gone. I cannot express how much I love this! I spray it over my shirts and shake them out a couple of times then hang them up and they are completely wrinkle-free, and it smells like everything just came right out of the laundry, which is also a plus." —KaylaGet a pack of two and a bonus travel-size from Amazon for $16.99. I Dew Care's dry shampoo powder — it's so easy to use you'll wonder how you ever dealt with those messy spray cans. This one has a powder-puff applicator so you can apply it directly to roots (you know, the source of all your oily troubles), and it also adds some extra volume as you brush it through. Reviewers say it instantly absorbs oil and doesn't leave a white residue behind. John Frieda's Secret Weapon Touch Up Creme, which I personally swear by for making my hair waaaaaaayyyy more manageable in between washes. Finding a leave-in you can use on fully dried hair is surprisingly tricky, but this one is designed specifically for that! It's super easy to spread through (even when my hair is at the "you really need a haircut" point), and it softens it just enough to re-style without looking overly wet. The best part? No crunchy residue!!! I hardly feel like I put anything in my hair at the end of the day, though it does feel a bit softer and less frizzy. Honestly, "secret weapon" is such a good name — if I weren't such a good person, I would gatekeep it so it stays in stock and under $10 review: "My hair is an untamed mess in the Key West humidity. This product works well and keeps my hair looking good without being too goopy." —KeyWestMikeGet it from Amazon for $8.97 (also available in packs of two and 24). An iRobot Roomba that vacuums and mops at the same time! It'll create the illusion that you deep clean your floors every week. The rotating brush will first sweep away any dust, dirt, and hair on the floor, and then the pulsating microfiber mop at the back will break down any caked-on messes. Oh, and it'll take itself home to its charger once it's done scrubbing the floors, so you barely have to lift a finger. A grout ink pen — it'll take the space between your tiles from grimy to shiny in a few simple swipes. This won't clean your grout, but it'll make it look brand-new. It's like a more productive version of an adult coloring book! A collapsible pet toy box so you'll have a spot to frantically throw your dog's half-destroyed squeaker ducks and lambchop plushes when your mother-in-law says she'll be arriving in five minutes. There's even a closing lid to keep them contained and avoid the "how many toys does a dog need?!!" comments 🙄. And a genius beanbag cover to help you quickly turn your child's outrageous stuffed animal collection into a comfy chair when guests are on their way.

A set of reusable microfiber mop pads that fits on your Swiffer so you can quickly sweep or mop your floors when you have last-minute company. Or if you're just too lazy for an actual mop and bucket.

I have no idea what goes on back there, and it's really none of my business. A pack of bleach-free disinfecting wipes so you can give your sink and toilet a quick wipe down when there's no time for legit scrubbing. They're designed to kill germs and remove up to 99.9% of allergens in just a few swipes. These are truly every lazy cleaner's best friend.

This genius cardigan that has the work-friendly look of a blazer but the couch-friendly feel of your favorite sweater. It'll dress up literally anything you throw it on, even that Chipotle-stained T-shirt you've been working from bed in. Promising review: "This is like a fusion between a jacket and a cardigan, it's definitely more structured and the material is more fitted. To me it's the perfect balance because it looks like a jacket and brings your outfit up a notch, but it's super comfortable and way softer than an actual jacket." —KimGet it from Amazon for $21.19+ (available in sizes 4-22 and 27 colors). A pack of cooling, hydrating eye gels with hyaluronic acid and collagen you can put on 15 minutes before that early morning weekly meeting, then toss off right before you click on the Google Meet link. Promising review: "First of all, amazing deal for the price! Secondly, they work amazing!!

Each pack of four comes with two small covers (8.5-inches x .625-inches) and two large covers (10.5-inches x .625-inches).Promising review: "These look great on a stainless cooktop! I purchased to keep my unused burners clean while cooking on another burner. They do a great job of keeping splatters off the unused burner coils and drip pans, and they are much easier to wash. They clean up nicely and blend in with the cooktop." —CardieGet a set of four from Amazon for $17.97.

I mean, if I can't see my unorganized mess, it doesn't really exist, right?! These are by far the best cubes I've found for the price. They're super sturdy and tall enough to store tons of stuff without anything spilling out over the sides. Get a pack of six from Amazon for $18.49+ (available in two sizes and eight colors). A bamboo toilet topper tray that'll make it seem like a random pile of stuff is there for a reason. You can use it to store toilet paper rolls, toiletries, and anything else that might be cluttering up your sink and ruining the tidy vibe you're going for. A super-long duster — it can reach high enough to clean your ceiling fans and vents and far enough to clean that weird space underneath your dresser. You could practically lay on the couch and speedily dust every surface around you when last-minute visitors are on their way. Or a reusable and machine-washable duster that fits onto the Swiffer duster handle so you can stop wasting money on the flimsy disposable refills.

A jar of all-in-one decor paint you can use on everything from kitchen cabinets to furniture upholstery. If there's a surface in your home that needs sprucing up, this has got you covered. It dries in about 30 minutes and leaves behind a chalky matte finish that's the definition of country-chic. A protective spray that creates an invisible coating on surfaces to prevent fingerprints, stains, smudges, soap scum, and more — so it's a must for all my fellow spill-prone people. It's safe for use on almost any hard surface, including granite counters, stainless steel, marble, porcelain, and glass — and the coating lasts for up to 12 months! A portable vacuum designed just for your car, because it's time to stop thinking to yourself, "I'll sweep these crumbs out eventually..." and actually get to cleaning. This plugs directly into your 12V outlet and comes with three attachments so you can clean everything from the floor mats to the scary cracks in between the seats. Your friends will be SO impressed the next time you pick them up. A pack of cleaning erasers that only need water to remove stains — they're more affordable than name brands but if you catch my drift. These little melamine sponges can quickly lift away tough stains, grease, soap scum, and anything else that your typical all-purpose cleaner just isn't tackling. A wine-stain removing spray so you'll no longer panic when you accidentally spill that glass of merlot during Bachelor night. It even works on coffee, fruit punch, ink, and pet accidents, so you'll probably want the bottle near you at all times. A small desktop vacuum that's truly the definition of tiny but mighty.

It's perfect for restoring your couch back to its former glory or making your car's seats look presentable again. Reviewers especially love this one (it's a constant best-seller on Amazon) since it only takes a few rolls back and forth to pick up the toughest pet hair, and the quick-release button makes it a breeze to remove the fur from the roller brush. A pair of fluffy slippers with microfiber mops on the soles so you can get some cleaning done while you make your way from the couch to the kitchen and back to the couch again. You'll use way less paper towels the next time you knock over a glass of Moscato.

You can also use it to spruce up your hairbrushes, so this is basically stray hair's worst enemy. A tub of dual-textured toner pads from K-beauty brand Medicube — it uses the power of lactic and salicylic acid to wipe away dead skin cells and help reduce the appearance of pores and blackheads. After cleansing, use the textured side for a deep exfoliation, then flip to the smooth side to soothe and mop up any excess oil. A tonsil stone-removing kit that's impressed more than 6,500 Amazon reviewers so far. If you're dealing with constant bad breath, strange tastes, or even pain, it might be time to check for tonsil stones.

It can help shrink bumps and reduce scarring by promoting skin cell turnover and adding an extra dose of moisture. A Wet N Wild lightweight tinted hydrator that gives you a perfect hint of coverage while helping to improve your skin over time — your current foundation can't do that! It goes on just like a normal moisturizer, but has just enough pigment to reduce redness and blur pores. Oh, and the hyaluronic acid and squalane will help make your skin feel soft and moisturized.
