The viral Anua pore-clearing cleansing oil, a K-beauty fan favorite because reviewers say it has the power to remove those pesky blackheads!

See it in action in this TikTok! Promising review:"BEST OIL CLEANSER I SWEAR. I've gone through three to four bottles now, and it continues to cleanse my skin AMAZING. It melts makeup and clears pores. Honestly, it's heaven-sent. The first time I used it, it cleared a lot of my sebum, and even now, when I use it, it clears any dead skin and dirt I have, even when I don't wear makeup. BUY IT, it's amazing.

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.

The way it works makes it seem like it's truly magic, and the results will further suspicion! Check out a TikTok of this mask in action. Promising review: "Oh…my god….🤯 No scent. It starts milky white and turns clear. I left it on overnight , woke up, and I was shook!! Pores? Where? Dry patch? Where? Fine wrinkles? Whheeerrrrrre??? Put it on over my lips as well, and it almost looked like a had fillers. It was so plump! 10/10 recommend. Holy grail of face masks. <3" — Kichi Get a four-pack from Amazon for $19 (also available in a 16-count). 7. An Olay Super Serum packed with niacinamide, vitamin C, collagen peptide, AHA, AND vitamin E *whew.* This absorbs into the skin like no other and leaves you with nourished skin for days, all without feeling sticky! Promising review:"It is silky and smooth (not greasy). My skin in about a week hasn't been dry, and it's balancing and brightening my skin. Age/sun spots are half the darkness. Forty feels like the new 20 with this product! I have been using the (advanced snail 92 all-in-one cream) moisturizer. My skin has a glow, a little firmer, rosacea almost unnoticeable. But it got rid of the constant dry texture. Makeup feels smoother." — Emily Get it from Amazon for $29.94+ (available in two sizes). 8. AND, Olay's Super Serum Body Wash to go along with it so your body can enjoy the same nourishing ingredients that are in the serum — like the niacinamide, collagen, and vitamin E. Your dry skin will be feeling so rejuvenated once you get this baby into your shower routine. Amazon Promising review:"I recently tried the Olay Super Serum Body Wash, and I am absolutely in love with it! The formula is incredibly hydrating, leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth after every use. It lathers beautifully and has a lovely, light fragrance that isn't overpowering. After just a few uses, I noticed my skin looked more radiant and felt deeply moisturized. The addition of serums in the body wash is a game-changer; my skin feels nourished, and I no longer need to apply lotion right after showering. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a luxurious, skin-loving body wash!" — Darina Get it from Amazon for $12.97+ (available in three different formulas). 9. An EOS 24-hour body lotion that is so popular, you'll be grateful you can snag it on Amazon because otherwise, you'd probably be battling someone in the body lotion aisle for the last bottle. This leaves your skin feeling smooth *and* smelling good. Listen to one user's glowing review on TikTok. Promising review: " Better than TikTok said! OMRyan Gosling, this is an amazing lotion!!!

I use this twice daily, and it's been a couple of weeks, and I definitely noticed my pores have shrunk. I even apply it to my neck and chest area. The product is soothing, gentle on my skin (I have extremely sensitive skin), has no strong smell, the cottons are soft, and did not cause any breakouts! It's great for the value, and I'll definitely be repurchasing these." — Ee El Get a pack of 70 from Amazon for $17.90 (available in four other styles). 11. Cosrx Snail Mucin 96% Power Repairing Essence — you probably didn't think that anyone could convince you to put something on your face that has to do with snails, but boy, does this work hard to help repair dark spots, hydrate dull skin, and rejuvenate damaged skin. Many reviewers said they were skeptical at first, but once they used it, they loved the glow it gave them. BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord has this and says:"I use this on my skin and definitely have noticed results! While it didn't help kick my stubborn pre-period hormonal acne, it has done *wonders* with reducing redness on my face, particularly around my nose, and in dealing with my pores. Since I started using it, my primer and foundation goes on a whole lot smoother, and I'm struggling a whole lot less to cover my pores. After using it for a few weeks, I read the advice of one reviewer to put this on when your face is slightly moist from washing, rub it in, let it dry, and then put your moisturizer on top of it — I've found that it's what got me the best results!" Promising review: "OK, I saw another influencer share this, and I've also loved the products she shares, so I grabbed some for myself. I put this on daily after a shower and love how it makes my skin feel. Tight and glowy. I immediately clicked "buy now," given the price and reviews, and I don't regret it! I use two pumps at a time, and it covers my entire face perfectly. Will definitely be using this for the foreseeable future." — Kylee Get it from Amazon for $19.20. 12. A retinol body lotion filled with dermatologist-recommended ingredients to promote skin cell turnover and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and crepey skin.

I am 66 years old and after using this moisturizer for only four days, I have not needed to use foundation makeup. This Medix retinol cream is a serious game changer!" — Nancy C. Trussell Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (also available in other formulas and multipacks). 13. An exfoliating mitt you'll be able to see immediate results with, because dead skin will just clump up and roll right off your arms and legs. Reviewers have said that this helps with keratosis pilaris (those annoying red little bumps) and is a miracle for getting smoother skin. Promising reviews:"I used loofah, exfoliating gloves, scrubs, and lotions for years. I still battle with a little bit of KP. I bought these gloves. They work so well. So much dead skin came off and immediately got rid of the KP. Believe the photos. Y ou will not believe the amount of dead skin that comes off. You will have soft healthy skin. This is a must buy." — YogaGirl "When I say my jaw dropped it was literally like..😱 all the dead skin just slid off like nothing. It is very satisfying watching all the build up come off." — Rockyy Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (available in two styles and in a pack of two). 14. And First Aid Beauty's KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub Exfoliant meant for tackling those "chicken skin" spots on the body (aka keratosis pilaris). The glycolic acid and lactic acid help buff away dead skin, and soon enough, you'll be saying "bye-bye bumps" and "hello smooth skin!" Amazon Promising review: "I saw a dermatologist recommend this on TikTok and I figured I'd give it a try. I have had red bumps on the back of my arms for as long as I can remember and have tried many things, so I didn't have very high expectations. After one use, I could already see a difference! It says to use 1–2 times a week, but I use it usually every other day, and I use CeraVe rough and bumpy lotion after and now my red bumps are almost nonexistent. This product has truly been life-changing and I would recommend to anyone struggling with red bumps! 10/10!" — Sidney Get it from Amazon for $10+ (available in three scents and two sizes). 15. Some bestselling Sol De Janeiro Bum Bum Cream with caffeine, coconut oil, and guarana extract, which all make a lovely combo to help smooth, firm, and add a glow to your skin. You know it's actually worth buying because even the 10-year-olds in Sephora go wild for this (and its matching body mist that comes in the same beloved salted caramel and vanilla scent). Caffeine has a number of skincare benefits, including brightening and temporarily reducing the appearance of stretch marks and cellulite, if that's something you're looking to do! You can read more about the skincare benefits of caffeine at the Cleveland Clinic. Promising review: "I am 60 and I could not get rid of the cellulite on my legs. I started using this product six weeks ago and can noticeably see a difference. I apply morning and evening, before bed for optimal results. It goes on smooth and has a creamy, non-sticky feel. The smell is dreamy, and even my husband has commented on the improvement. Make sure you apply in a circular motion for optimal coverage, absorption and circulation." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $24+ (available in three sizes). 16. A Saem hydrating eye stick to target puffiness and help reduce the look of dark circles and lines. With Icelandic glacial water, moss and seaweed extracts, and niacinamide, this little polar bear will be your new best friend. It's small enough to fit in your purse, and some reviewers even put this in the refrigerator for an extra cooling effect. It can also help tighten the appearance of eye wrinkles if you'd prefer for them not to be as noticeable. Promising review:" I couldn't live without this refreshing wee polar bear eye stick doohicky. I use it twice or more daily prior to applying moisturizer, eye cream, or both." — CatGatherer Get it from Amazon for $9.89+ (available in three formulas). 17. A stainless-steel blackhead spatula if you want a fast way to get all those blackheads without poking and prodding your face, only to leave you with red marks all over your face. This uses high-frequency vibrations to unclog your pores and will have you feeling like you got a facial right at home! See it in action on TikTok! My colleague Negesti Kaudo uses this: "I got a facial a couple of years ago and I could tell something was different about my extractions, so I asked the aesthetician to write down the name of the product. I went home and immediately bought this! I LOVE IT. I love it more than any other skincare tool that I own. This thing gets gunk out like nothing I've ever tried before, and the first time I used it, I was absolutely disgusted. But I kept on using it. I don't have much acne, but I do have oily combination skin and visibly clogged pores, so this has been a lifesaver when I don't have time to visit an aesthetician. You have to use it while your face is still wet, so after washing your face or even using toner, and you just start scraping. Make sure you have a paper towel near (and maybe a camera) because you will be amazed and disgusted all at once, but you will literally never stop using. I use mine every other day to once a week if I'm having skincare issues, but it also does a great job with monthly use (it's just much grosser)! I follow mine up with Clinique's Clarifying Lotion 3 and Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel!" Promising review:"Don't doubt it, a staple in skincare. I got this little device from a TikTok and decided to give it a try. I never knew I needed it until the first time I tried it. The vibrations magically bring up all the stubborn blackheads you can't reach with just your fingers, especially if you have acrylics like me." — Paige Chaney Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in three colors). 18. Anua's Niacinamide 10 + TXA 4 Serum infused with ceramides and hyaluronic acid to protect the skin barrier and hydrate dull-looking skin. Reviewers love how the lightweight formula seamlessly absorbs into their skin and say it does wonders for helping with hyperpigmentation. Promising review: "This is such a great serum! It's so lightweight, and it absorbs so well into the skin. I love the fact that it makes my skin feel hydrated. It's doing wonders for my hyperpigmentation, definitely worth the purchase!" — Goaba Mooki Get it from Amazon for $22. 19. Or Anua's Azelaic Acid 10+ Hyaluron Serum, a product that proves everyone should be incorporating azelaic acid into their skincare routine. It works wonders by reducing redness and fading dark spots. And when it's paired with niacinamide and hyaluronic acid, like it is in this serum, it helps strengthen your skin barrier and leaves your face feeling ridiculously soft and hydrated. Promising review: "This product has seriously changed my skin, and in a good way. I struggled with P.I.E. and some texture on my face, and I can say that after using this product consistently, I am seeing a huge difference. I love this product and will be purchasing again!!!!!!!" — Kaitlyn oneill Get it from Amazon for $22. 20. A bottle of Briotech spray that uses the same main ingredient, hypochlorous acid, as the more expensive Tower 28 SOS Spray. This helps reduce irritation and prevent acne, as well as leaving you feeling refreshed throughout the day, especially after a sweaty workout. Promising review: "This spray is amazing. I had a rash on my face, and it disappeared after one use of this spray. I had a stye in my eye, and the skin around the eye was irritated. This spray fixed not only the irritation but also the style, which went away. Any sort of blemish or acne is taken care of with this simple, inexpensive spray. Great for after-sun care or workout redness. Everyone loves Tower 28's expensive SOS spray. The SOS spray contains hypochlorous acid, which is the exact same ingredient in the Biotech spray, for much less money. It's a miracle worker." — Squid466 Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in four sizes and in multipacks). 21. Vanicream, a face and body moisturizer that has been going viral on TikTok because it's fragrance-free and great for sensitive skin types. Plus, so many people have this in their arsenal of "unsexy products that work." Promising review:"I have suddenly and inexplicably developed an allergy to fragrance. It is super annoying, and I was itchy and bumpy, especially on my face, until I figured out my fragrance-filled products were likely the culprit. I have Vanicream EVERYTHING at this point. Body wash, lotion, face wash, sunscreen, and this moisturizing lotion. All of it is great! I live in Colorado, and this heavier moisturizing cream keeps my skin from, well, falling off! It is so dry here! I use the lighter lotion on my face, and it is delightful, too. If you have super sensitive skin, this just might be something that works for you too!" — Adrienne Get it from Amazon for $13.56. 22. La Roche-Posay's Toleriane Double Repair Face Moisturizer to give you some major hydration all day and all night. This contains ceramides and niacinamide to help restore your skin's barrier, is fragrance-free, and even comes in an SPF 30 version. This TikToker raves about it! Check it out in their video! Promising review:"I have been using this face moisturizer for about a year, and I love it. I have very dry skin and this goes on smoothly and keeps my face moisturized all day. I use the same one without SPF for night time after I wash my face. For a drugstore brand, you can't beat it!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $23.99. 23. A bottle of professional-grade callus-removing gel that'll help get rid of all the dead skin on your heels and leave you with skin that feels as smooth as a baby's bottom. Just pre-soak feet, apply the gel, let it sit for 5–10 minutes, and rinse! It's recommended you go back in afterward with a foot file just to make sure no residue or dead skin is left behind. Promising review:"Best product I've ever got from Amazon. This thing is really what everyone said it is: MAGIC. I cannot believe after one use the results of my callouses, just years and years of pain, shaved down without any surgical treatment! WOW! I seriously have no words. If I could give this product 1 million stars, I would. If you're someone who's had horribly callused feet for years, PLEASE BUY THIS!" — Jess Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (also available as a two-pack and in three scents). 24. Tend Skin after-shave solution because nothing is more annoying than feeling that day one smoothness after shaving, and then day two rolls around with razor bumps and ingrown hairs. Apply this right after shaving to help prevent future bumps as well as combat the hairs that seem to never give you a break. Promising review: "I've been using this for a few weeks, and it has made a significant difference. Ingrown hairs and razor bumps are practically gone! The solution is easy to apply and doesn't leave any sticky residue. The 4-ounce bottle lasts a while since you only need a little each time. It stings slightly upon application, but it's worth it for the smooth, bump-free results. It's also effective on post-waxing irritation. Highly recommend this product for anyone dealing with ingrown hairs and razor burns. A must-have in my skincare routine!" — Candy Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in three sizes). 25. Kahi Wrinkle Bounce Hydrating Multi-Balm formulated with salmon complex and collagen to help reduce the look of fine lines and boost hydration in your face, lips, and eyes. Plus, this has gone viral on TikTok for helping achieve that "glass skin" look. Promising review: "Okay! So I was skeptical at first, but honestly, this stick is life-changing!!! In a matter of minutes, my skin felt hydrated and plumped. After an hour, still hydrated. No greasy after feeling, very light, and you can feel your skin hydrated and absorbing. I love the fact that you can use it on your eyes, lips, and wrinkles!! Game changer for me, will def try the others!" — Kristy Get it from Amazon for $21.89 (available in seven styles). 26. An under-eye mask that'll help you feel refreshed because the niacinamide nourishes your skin, and the hyaluronic acid locks in moisture. These are easy to stick on, stay in place, and are sulfate-free, so they are safe for most skin types. Promising review: "I saw a bunch of under eye masks being marketed on TikTok, I'm not sure if this is one of them. But for the price that these are they seem to work pretty well. They are individually wrapped little jelly masks that don't fall apart when you take them out and they stick to your face really well making them easy to use. Love the light not overwhelming smell and they are definitely nice and cool on your face!" — Eclipsica Get them from Amazon for $9.95+ (available in three styles and four pack sizes). 27. O'Keeffe's Working Hands hand cream — ~hands down~ one of the best things you can buy for your dry, cracked skin. Construction workers and nurses swear by this stuff, and so do the 60,000+ people who left 5-star reviews. Promising review: "If you're trying to decide whether or not you want to spend the money on this, I'd say 100% do it! Through the months, my husband has done nothing but complain about the health of his hands. With this, all I hear is, 'Feel my hands, don't they feel so much better?' Hands down, my best purchase for him. He works as an engineer on a tug boat, so you could only imagine how rough his hands were before use! I so wish I had before and after pictures for you to see." — Mikayla Baker Get it from Amazon for $8.90+ (available in two sizes and multipacks). 28. A tried and true Tree Hut exfoliator that's a staple in SO many people's shower routines. Once you get a tub of this, you'll understand why. This vegan and paraben-free formula has a long-lasting scent and deeply exfoliates the skin to make you feel smooth and nourished. Promising review: " I recently tried a Tree Hut Sugar Scrub for the first time, and I love it! Now I understand why it's trending. The peach sorbet scent is incredible. It smells like fresh peaches, and the scent lingers in my bathroom for hours after I shower. The scrub itself exfoliates really well, leaving my skin feeling fresh, smooth, and moisturized. It's a perfect addition to my shower routine. It comes in so many scents and I can't wait to try others. I highly recommended if you're looking for a delightful and effective sugar scrub!" — Diane Get it from Amazon for $7.97 (available in 30 scents). 29. A popular pack of Skin1004 pore tightening and lifting "zombie" masks if you're looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines and tighten your skin. This has albumin and aloe vera extract to improve skin elasticity and provide soothing moisture. Yeah, you might look like Frankenstein for 15 minutes, but the results will be well worth it. To use, mix the powder and activator and apply it onto your face. FYI — you'll look like a character from The Walking Dead as the mask works its magic (it's called the "Zombie Pack" for a reason!). But once you rinse it off after 10-15 minutes of letting it dry, you'll have some happy and radiant skin. Skin1004 is a Korean skincare brand that provides high-quality skincare items made of plant-based ingredients from Madagascar. Its signature ingredient is centella asiatica extract, a soothing and hydrating antioxidant that is known for its ability to help heal wounds and protect the skin. Promising reviews:"After years of trying different products on my sensitive, acne-prone, red, rough skin, I saw this mask and all of the positive reviews and thought 'what the hell, I'll give it a go.' Even after the first application, I was really impressed with the results. My rough skin is smoother, I have no additional breakouts and when I do wear makeup it actually blends into my skin. It also helps the deep wrinkles on my neck. I even got a compliment on my skin the other day — this NEVER happens. I use the mask twice per week. I'm on month two and I recommend it to anyone with problem skin. My only caution is that is smells kind of funky (who cares) and it's a little hard to remove. I only apply the mask when I'm going to shower and wash my hair. It's zombie life for me here on out!" — Charlie B Get one pack of eight masks from Amazon for $20 (also available in a two-pack and in a variety three-pack). 30. Aveeno's Daily Moisturizing Body Mist Oil reviewers adore because its blend of vitamin E and jojoba oil gives you just the right amount of moisture without feeling too heavy on the skin. You can spritz this on after a shower or right before heading out the door, and BAM, you just reached sunkissed goddess status just like that! Promising reviews:"This is a holy grail moisturizer for me! It subtly smells like an oatmeal cookie, and my skin drinks it up, leaving no greasy or sticky feeling behind. I've always had a sensory aversion to body lotions, but not this oil! Especially if I apply to wet skin." — moonbeam622 "Love the smell, and lasts for a long period of time! I was very surprised by the product, it has become my new holy grail!!" — Kay Get it from Amazon for $9.58. 31. A pack of the Mighty Patch Pimple Spot Treatment — you can stick one of these on top of a whitehead before bedtime and wake up to a smoother and less noticeable pimple just like that! It's super satisfying to see these hydrocolloid patches suck out all that gunk, and they blend in great if you want to wear them during the day! BTW, these work best on open, draining pustules (rather than blackheads or pimples that haven't come to a head yet). You can read more at Cleveland Clinic! Hero Cosmetics is an Asian woman-founded brand and home of the popular Mighty Patch. Ju Rhyu launched the brand in 2017, and it's since evolved with products such as cleansers, toners, nose strips, and more! Promising reviews: "The holy grail of pimple patches. None will ever compare. I've tried different brands. This one I keep coming back to! The adhesion is pretty good. Make sure your face is cleansed and completely dry. I made the mistake of moisturizing on accident first and then the patch doesn't stick well. Don't be like me! Most of the time it works great. Next morning that gunk will be GONE! If it's a little baby pimple/or too early for the patch, then sometimes it doesn't work but that's most likely because it wasn't ready. Anyway, love this stuff and will be repurchasing!!" — LB "I will never stop buying this product. I use them religiously and I won't ever stop. Any time I start to get a pimple I slap one of these on and within a day it's almost, if not all the way, gone. I wish I would have found them sooner. They don't irritate your skin and you can hardly notice when you're wearing them. This is a holy grail product and a must-buy." — Kelsey Get a 36-pack from Amazon for $12.99 (also available in packs of 72 and 75). Reviews for this post have been edited for length and/or clarity.

These 29 Personal Care Products Are So Good, Reviewers Are Kicking Themselves For Not Trying Them Sooner
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. But you're not going to make that same mistake, are you? 1. A coconut-scented nail strengthening cream if you hate deciding between eye-popping manicure prices or sporting short, brittle nails that are constantly chipping. Fortunately, there's a third option! This non-greasy formula is packed with calcium, moisturizing oils, and vitamins to strengthen nails and condition cuticles. Promising review:"This is amazing! I had super brittle nails that I could never grow out. I had acrylic nails for two years, and I wanted a break. They were so thin and damaged from the acrylics. Now, only after a few weeks, my nails are completely healed and grown and will not break! I wish I found this sooner; I wouldn't have wasted my time and money on nail maintenance! Try it!" — Chelsea Lauren Hill Get it from Amazon for $8.88. 2. A hydrating Yerba Mate Wake Up eye gel so you can present to the world as fully alive instead of clinging to wakefulness and an iced latte. All you need is a pea-size amount of product to treat sensitive under-eye skin to a heaping dose of antioxidants and caffeine that can help reduce puffiness. Promising reviews:" I wish I had known about this sooner! I had minimal hopes for this to clear up my purple under-eye after the very first application, I noticed a HUGE improvement! I use it once a day and have had such a great experience with it. I look refreshed and no longer have insecurities behind my dark under-eyes. I've bought another for my sister and my husband. :) They're now fans of it, too!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $5.98. 3. And for tackling unwanted discoloration, try a cruelty-free under-eye brightener to effortlessly conceal dark circles on those days you don't want to just look awake, but downright energized. The color-adapting formula is creamy and lightweight, so you don't have to worry about unwanted creasing and cakiness, either. The color adaptive formula is designed so one of two shades will work on any skin tone. See it in action on TikTok. Promising review: "I've used concealers and spent a lot of money on expensive ones. This one is the best I've used and doesn't cost much. I use it around my eyes, and it goes on smoothly, It looks so natural, and I only wish I'd found it sooner! Absolutely love it!!!" — Nite Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in four shades). 4. A bottle of Lottabody's super fluffy mousse for a lightweight, set-and-forget option that'll help your air-dried curls look less frizzy and more defined. Promising reviews:"I wish I had discovered this sooner; it's been a game changer for my curly hair." — Rebecca Schaub "I have permed hair with 3b curls, and this is the best mousse I have found! It does not leave my hair sticky or stiff, it's very moisturizing, and the foam has a great consistency. The scent is light and pleasant, and this is my new go-to for both freshly washed hair and the day after re-boost. So glad I found this!" — Tonii Get it from Amazon for $3.98 (also available in a pack of two). 5. A gentle pore-clearing cleansing oil that's so effective at removing makeup and other residue that reviewers say you can actually see bits of gunk leaving your pores. WILD. It's suitable for all skin types and is formulated with heartleaf extract to help you get that *glowy* glass skin look. Promising review:"This product is GREAT!! I have struggled with blackheads since middle school — I'm now 44. I wasn't sure about washing my face with oil, but WOW!!! A fter just a few uses, my blackheads are almost nonexistent!!! Thank you soooo much for this product. I wish I had found it sooner!!! I wish I had taken a picture before to show my results, but honestly, nothing has ever worked, so I didn't have high hopes. But I'm telling you, this works!!!" — Mandrs Get it from Amazon for $17.69. 6. Lumify eye drops because reviewers swear this OTC formula reduces redness in just one minute while fending it off for the next eight hours. Sure, you'd likely pay more for such quick results, but we're more than happy not to! Learn more about different kinds of eye drops and what they can do at Cleveland Clinic. Note that eye drops can potentially mask symptoms of eye conditions, so you should talk to your eye doctor about what's right for you. And according to Mayo Clinic, you should avoid redness-reducing drops if you're looking for dry eye relief. Check out a TikTok of the eye drops in action. Get it from Amazon for $11.99. 7. A cruelty-free Essence Lash Princess mascara if you're tired of getting excited about mascaras that never live up to their promises. This one is different — or at least according to the 260,000+ 5-star ratings. See it in action on TikTok. Promising review: "Did not disappoint! I was shocked that this affordable mascara looks this good. Sorry I didn't buy it sooner. I've used L'Oréal Voluminous mascara in the past and tried some pricey brands, but this will be my go-to mascara now!" — Melinda Weiss For more info and review pics, check out BuzzFeed Editor Kayla Boyd's full Essence Lash Princess Mascara review! Get it from Amazon for $4.99 (available in black or brown and in a three-pack). 8. A bottle of professional-grade callus-removing gel so you can quickly remove years' (I repeat, YEARS') worth of hard calluses without endless scraping and scrubbing. I'd start picking out a new pair of sandals STAT! Just presoak your feet, apply the gel, let sit for 5–10 minutes, and rinse! It's recommended you go back in afterward with a foot file just to make sure no residue or dead skin is left behind. Promising review:"This stuff really works, and it's better than salon services you pay. 💰 I will no longer be going in to get pedicures and wasting my money. Take my word and purchase this set because you will love this as much as I do. Can't believe I didn't get this sooner!!" — Madiha Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in three scents and a multi-pack). 9. A nongreasy hair wax stick to tame flyaways and smooth edges without weighing down your entire look with globs of gel. Feel free to apply the stick directly to your hair for mess-free application and all-day staying power. Just a note that you don't have to lay your edges, but this is great if you do! Promising review:"My hair is so frizzy during these humid summers, but this stick makes my ponytails look so slick and polished. I love it! Doesn't look greasy at all and no residue. I wish I'd known about this sooner." — JC Get it from Amazon for $7.99. 10. A moisturizing saline gel for putting an end to the frequent nosebleeds and restoring some desperately needed moisture to your dry, irritated nasal biome. If you use a CPAP machine or get dried out on long-haul flights, I'd add this to cart STAT. Promising review: " I wish I'd known about this product sooner! I read about it online when trying to figure out what to do about my dry nose. I use a CPAP, and it irritates my nose inside and out. Using a cotton swab two times a day, I moisturize my nose inside and out, and it helps tremendously. I won't go without; it makes the CPAP tolerable." — Jason Breaux Get it from Amazon for $3.62. 11. A fragrance-free texturizing powder that'll add some heatless *oomph* to fine hair that usually likes to do one thing and one thing only: lie flat. Simply massage this translucent powder into your roots to enjoy hours of texture and va-va-volume. Promising review:"I have very long, fine, thin hair, and usually it takes 3–4 products (root lifter, hair thickener, hairspray, etc.), a blowout, and 40 minutes to achieve workable, voluminous THIS PRODUCT! In just a few seconds, it makes a huge difference. I wish I found it sooner. Some people have commented that it's sticky or makes their hair feel weird, but it's a product — it's not going to feel like your natural hair! My friend with thick hair won't use it because it's 'too much,' but that's exactly what I need for my hair because the average stuff doesn't work. If you have fine, thin hair — you need this powder!!" — Jessie Q. Get it from Amazon for $21.95. 12. An easy to apply fungal nail renewal formula because you've got a toenail (or two, or three) that's thick, discolored, or brittle. Apply this fast-acting formula and you could start seeing visual improvements in as little as two days. Promising review:"This is very effective for toenail fungus. It may be a slow process, but worth the time involved. I used it for a few months, three times a day. It also works for pitted fingernails. I just wish I had tried it sooner instead of wasting my time on other options that got great reviews from other users but instead worsened my fingernail problems. This is the best nail product on the market!" — Giselle Get it from Amazon for $15.99. 13. An exfoliating mitt if you love the delightful feeling of disgust that comes with seeing dead skin slough away right before your eyes and knowing that your skin is going to feel SO SMOOTH after. Promising review:"I have always used body scrubs, so many different kinds and brands. When using this mitt, I didn't see much dead skin, but I wasn't expecting to since I consistently use body scrub. After using this mitt, my skin has never felt softer or smoother. I wish I found this sooner. I would have saved a lot of money not buying buying scrubs. This is a wonderful price for a wonderful product. If it is in your cart buy it now!!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in a two-pack). 14. An easy-to-use collagen-coating hair mask so it looks like your hair hasn't undergone years of abuse at the hands of bleach and blow-dryers without the pricey salon trip. Bek O'Connell / BuzzFeed Read our Elizavecca CER-100 Collagen Coating Hair Protein Treatment review to learn more about why my colleague calls it "the miracle product I've been searching for." Promising review:"Amazing product! My hair is now straighter, stronger, shinier, and looks absolutely beautiful. Plus, it even seems longer. I've been using it for a month now, washing my hair 3–4 times a week because I train almost every day. I only wish I had discovered this product sooner. Now, thanks to this treatment, I can style my hair in just 15 minutes with a regular dryer. Highly recommend!" — Melissa Get it from Amazon for $7.80. 15. A convenient set of dual-textured toner pads made with lactic and salicylic acid to gently exfoliate skin and refine the appearance of those T-zone pores you swear can be seen from a mile away. Check it out on TikTok. Promising review:"I've used high-end chemical exfoliation brands from Sephora, etc., and this is it! I just wish I had found this sooner. My skin is baby-soft after using this. 10/10!" — SeokYoung O. Get a pack of 70 from Amazon for $17.90 (available in four other styles). 16. A vegan exfoliating body scrub for anyone who struggles with persistent KP. This buffs away bumps by combining the benefits of a chemical peel and microdermabrasion into one gentle, at-home treatment. Promising review:" This scrub is great…wish I found it sooner. I have keratosis on my arms, chest, and thighs and have tried other products with little success, so I thought I'd try this. Wow, noticed a difference after one use. Just used it for the second time, and what a difference. A little pricey, but well worth it!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $12+ (available in two sizes). 17. A clear nail biting polish with a bitter taste that'll help you finally break the habit and grow the enviable long nails you've always wanted. Promising review:"My daughter has been sucking her thumb for years to the point it changed the shape of her teeth. This product really works. Within two days, she wasn't sucking her thumb anymore. I wished I would have bought it way sooner." — Jaremy James Get it from Amazon for $12.35. 18. A hypoallergenic neck and chest Gold Bond cream so your skincare routine can now include a moisturizer that's designed to help firm up skin, visibly improving texture and elasticity. 19. A painless, mint-flavored teeth-whitening pen because traditional strips are tough to use, expensive, and can leave you with teeth sensitivity that is, in my professional opinion, NO fun. With this pen you can get quick results. And the best part? No lingering sensitivity. Promising review:"I have extremely sensitive teeth from over-whitening in high school, but this product has been such a lifesaver! I am a daily black coffee and red wine kind of gal so my teeth have taken a toll as far as staining goes. Seriously, I was very hesitant about getting this because of how sensitive my teeth are, but I wish I got it sooner! This is such a great product!" — Mimi Doherty Get a two-pack from Amazon for $18.95. 20. A pack of multipurpose dermaplaning razors if that middle school eyebrow mishap has made face shaving and brow shaping feel like a daunting task. These teeny-tiny blades safely remove peach fuzz, exfoliate skin, and include a precision cover for worry-free eyebrow maintenance. Promising review:" I wish I would have started using these sooner. Easy to use and makes your face feel so soft. I read the directions and used on dry, clean skin and was baby soft after. Would recommend for sure." — Karrie Werner Get a three-pack from Amazon for $5.94. 21. A box of Mighty Patch pimple patches containing hydrocolloid so you can stop that zit dead in its tracks with gunk-absorbing powers that speed up the pimple healing process. The sticker format can also help prevent you from habitual picking or popping. Promising review:"I will never stop buying this product. I use them religiously, and I won't ever stop. Any time I start to get a simple I slap one of these on and within a day it's almost, if not all the way, gone. I wish I would have found them sooner. They don't irritate your skin and you can hardly notice when you're wearing them. This is a holy grail product and a must buy." — Kelsey And check out BuzzFeed Shopping editor Amanda Davis 's full Mighty Patch review for more info! Get a pack of 36 from Amazon for $12.99 (also available in a pack of 72). 22. A non-aerosol dry shampoo powder packed in a travel-friendly compact to prolong wash day and revive greasy locks so you can basically roll right out of bed and into the office and STILL have coworkers complimenting your fabulous hair. Promising review: "This is a really great dry shampoo. I wish that I had found it sooner. The application is very easy with the sponge. Very convenient to travel with. A little goes a long way. This will be my go-to from now on. Wish it came with more product." — Lisa M. Get it from Amazon for $18 (available in six colors). 23. A hydrating snail mucin repairing essence for soothing *all* skin types (reviewers love how gentle it is) with the potential to help heal acne scars, fade dark spots, and smooth fine for less than an Uber Eats delivery!! Promising review:"I saw this a couple of times on TikTok and decided, for the price, it was definitely worth a try. Oh my gosh, do I wish I had tried it sooner! I'm in my late 30s, so I have a few lines and some texture. This has helped moisturize and even out my skin so much, and my face feels heavenly! My skin is pretty sensitive and I absolutely cannot stand when something smells bad, I haven't had any problems with this product at all. Just a warning to people that are allergic to shellfish, be careful with this product because you could have a reaction." — Mandy Bompiani Get it from Amazon for $18.95. 24. A pack of two dark spot corrector soap bars that are packed with all the skin-loving good stuff (vitamin C, turmeric, hyaluronic acid, collagen, and MORE) to help even out skin and diminish dark spots wherever they pop up. Promising review:"My armpits have been discolored for years now, so I was skeptical about how well this soap would actually work, but it definitely does! I wish I would've gotten it sooner. 😭 Photos are exactly three weeks apart. I also use a hard exfoliating wash cloth along with the soap. I got the pack of two bars, and I'm still on the first one. so a little definitely goes a long way." — Nyla Get a two-pack from Amazon for $14.99. 25. A wildly popular Bio-Oil because real-life magic (aka science) has gifted us this powerful blend of moisturizing oils and vitamins to help fade the scars and stretch marks you thought were going to stick around for the foreseeable ever. Promising review:"I was so skeptical about this oil, but I kept seeing it listed on so many product suggestion pages. I wish I had tried it so much sooner! This stuff is unbelievable. I have some thick raised scars from a surgical procedure. One week after I started using this oil once per day, the scars were completely smooth now. I'm baffled!!!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $11.12. 26. A Shea Butter Vanilla Cashmere body lotion if you're still on the hunt for a moisturizer that's hydrating, lightweight, and soothing. Allow me to introduce you to this delicious-smelling formula at a price that's just *a chef's kiss.* Listen to one user's glowing review on TikTok. Promising review: "Smells like caramel in the dry down! Very lightweight and very moisturizing. I didn't believe the hype, but this one I am upset with myself that I didn't buy it sooner! Love, love, love. I want to buy more in case they ever run out, but I'm sure they are here to stay a long while, lol." — Terria Get it from Amazon for $8.98 (available in other scents). 27. A nose wax kit so you don't have to go through the slow and painful process of yanking hairs out one by one with tweezers. Does it look scary? A bit. But reviewers say it's painless and can literally help you breather a little easier. The hairs in your nose play an important role in filtering out any harmful debris. But of course, it's your body, and if you want to wax your nose hairs, you're more than welcome to — just be careful, as plucking nose hairs can lead to infection and ingrown hairs. With this kit, you'll have 100 grams of nose wax beads, 30 wax applicators, 10 mustache protectors, a measuring cup, and 15 paper cups at your disposal. Promising review:"Was a little scared of doing this. Was surprised it was easy and hurt less than using tweezers. I always have used tweezers or electric nose trimmers and wish I had started using this product sooner. You get like a year's supply with this." — henry gonzalez Get it from Amazon for $15.99. 28. A box of waterproof medicated pads that apply like bandages to finally force out the wart living rent-free under your skin. Promising review:" I wish I would have found these sooner. Melted off my plantar wart in four days. I've been pained by this thing for over a year, and this got rid of it quickly. I've been recommending it to all my friends!" — Domingo Douglas Get a pack of 14 from Amazon for $7.49+ (available in two styles). 29. An easy-to-use denture cleaner tablet you simply plop in warm water with your dentures, mouth guard, retainer, or aligners for a stain-fighting, odor-busting clean that's worth smiling about.

Just 37 Products That Deliver Satisfying 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 · A *zero scrub* shower cleaner that delivers results is quite the definition of satisfying, IMO. 1. Wet & Forget's shower cleaner because stepping over the soap scum and grime-ridden parts of your floor should *not* be part of your everything shower routine. Instead, spray down every gross area with this, let it sit for 12 hours, and then rinse. A clean shower will appear before your very eyes! If your shower has a lot of soap scum and gunk built up, reviewers say it may take a couple of treatments until your shower *sparkles* again. Promising review:"I saw this product on TikTok and decided to try it out for myself. The name doesn't lie — spray it on, shut the bathroom door, and in a few hours, the shower is 100 times cleaner. Usually, I'll let it sit overnight, and by morning, the visible grime on the shower is gone, including soap scum. I'll usually let the shower water rinse the residue out and then will take a bucket just to get everything off the shower walls. It is a bit slick if you try to get in the shower without rinsing the residue, but otherwise, it's a worthy cleaning staple in my house." — Tara D. Get it from Amazon for $19.98+ (available in two scents and two sizes). 2. Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up eye gel with caffeine to help reduce eye puffiness, yerba mate to brighten skin, and three types of hyaluronic acid to help plump and firm. One reviewer likes this *more* than The Ordinary's caffeine eye gel because it's more moisturizing! 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 love all the Good Molecules products." — Hayden Smith Promising review: "Saw this on TikTok and decided to give it a try since the price was amazing. OMG, buy it. I've always had dark circles under my eyes and now fine lines and crow's-feet. While this doesn't completely eliminate my dark circles, the fine lines are really diminished. It wears extremely well under makeup and doesn't feel cakey, or like there's a ton of product on." — K. Grant Get it from Amazon for $5.98. 3. A tennis shoe cleaner concentrate reviewers say works fast to make your sneakers spotless and squeaky clean. This works on leather, suede, canvas, and MORE, so you can restore the endless collection of comfy shoes you can't part ways with. It's super easy to use — just dip the (included) brush in water, apply the cleaning solution to the shoe, then brush and wipe away! Promising review:"I have had my Nike Roshe runs for about a year now, and I don't go easy on them. I play sports and run in the dirt with them all the time, but I also like to wear them for fashion purposes. Pink Miracle helped restore my daily shoes to look like I just bought them — now I can wear them for even longer. Very pleased with Pink Miracle, I will buy it again when I run out of my bottle." — Romario Get it from Amazon for $18.97+ (available in three sizes). 4. A jar of the beloved Sol De Janeiro Bum Bum Cream that delivers IMPRESSIVE results for people wanting to smooth and tighten skin — and that's all thanks to its caffeine-rich guarana extract formula. The notes of salted caramel, vanilla, and pistachio will have you in self-care heaven with how good it smells, too. Caffeine has a number of skincare benefits, including brightening and temporarily reducing the appearance of stretch marks and cellulite, if that's something you're looking to do! You can read more about the skincare benefits of caffeine at the Cleveland Clinic. Promising review: "I am 60, and I could not get rid of the cellulite on my legs. I started using this product six weeks ago and can noticeably see a difference. I apply morning and evening, before bed for optimal results. It goes on smooth and has a creamy, nonsticky feel. The smell is dreamy, and even my husband has commented on the improvement. Make sure you apply in a circular motion for optimal coverage, absorption, and circulation." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $24+ (available in two sizes and a refill tub). 5. A tub of The Pink Stuff so you can make the messiest of messes clean again with this cult-followed paste. Its fast-acting formula can turn almost any stain into a thing of the past (even if it's been around for eons). It works to remove crayon, grime, permanent marker, or rust from your walls, jewelry, silverware, wood, and more — it's truly so versatile! This is a mildly abrasive cleaning paste, so use with care and go slowly when testing on new surfaces. Simply apply it to the surface with a damp sponge or cloth, give it a few scrubs, and then rinse away with hot water. Promising review:"I used this product for my stove because if there's one thing I dislike, it's cleaning. I have used multiple degreaser sprays, and they all are so toxic and don't work for me. But this product, oh my goodness, is legit a miracle. It doesn't have any smell. I put the paste on a cloth, clean the area, then wipe it off with a damp cloth, and voilà — magic!" — May Get it from Amazon for $5.97+ (also available in a bundle with a scrubber sponge). 6. A hydrating Cosrx snail mucin repairing essence to help fade dark spots, heal acne scars, and smooth the appearance of fine lines. People with sensitive skin love that the formula is gentle on their skin *and* several reviewers noted they got "fast results." New to essences? Try applying this after cleansing but before your moisturizer. Applying it to clean skin and under your moisturizer will help lock in all that snail mucin goodness! Promising review:"This is a product that works for anybody! I apply it once I have washed my face on damp skin. It can be slightly slimy, once again it is snail mucin, but you only really feel it when you apply it to dry skin. I usually allow it to dry for a bit until it becomes slightly tacky before I put a moisturizer on. I have combination skin. My forehead and chin tend to be oily, but my cheeks dry, and this has really evened that out. I really recommend this because it isn't harsh to the skin and perfect for beginners." — Nelita H. Get it from Amazon for $18.13. 7. A glasses lens cleaner with tiny microfibers that'll cut through fingerprints for crystal clear vision. You can use the little brush to flick off dirt or dust before wiping away smudges or oils. Your lenses will have a streak-free finish without any scratching! The glass lens cleaner Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok and wanted to get it. I wear glasses every day and often don't realize how dirty they are until I see a reflection through them. I've used cloths before, but they get weirdly oily and then leave smear marks. This does not. I love it so much, and I don't lose it in my purse." — Clair F Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in ten styles). 8. A viral veggie chopper, slicer, and spiralizer so you can meal prep in a matter of minutes — that even goes for the eye-watering onions you love but can't stand to chop. Just put your vegetable on top of the blades, press down the lid, and you'll have perfectly cut veggies sitting pretty in the *built-in* storage container. The 4-in-1 model comes with two chopping blades (one with small cubes and one with larger cubes) and two spiralizer blades (a julienne cutter and a ribbon cutter). You'll also receive a finger guard, two cleaning brushes, and two cleaning scrapers. All pieces are dishwasher-safe! Promising review:"Makes life so much easier. I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. This requires very little effort to cut through the food, and it has a generous container." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $24.87+ (available in five styles and four colors). 9. Skin1004's zombie face masks with albumin (egg white extract) to lift and aloe vera extract that'll deliver deep hydration to your skin. Once the mask dries, it'll look rough and cracked (hence the "zombie" in the name), but once you wash it off 10 minutes later, your skin will look glowy and feel tighter. Promising review:"Smells great! This face mask does exactly what it says. My skin is nice and lifted, hydrated, noticeable reduction in fine lines, improved texture, reduced pore size, and eliminated some newly developed rough patches forming around the hairline. Couldn't be more satisfied with this product! I have pretty good skin for 37, but this mask has really helped take my skin to the next level." — Samantha Get a box of eight masks from Amazon for $17.99 (also available as a two-pack). 10. A Colorx toilet wand with disposable cleaning heads that only need water to start cleaning and transform your loo from yucky to sparkly — one reviewer said it took as little as "25 seconds." It's much more sanitary than your standard toilet brush thanks to its disposable cleaning heads, meaning you'll have a perfectly clean brush every time you attach a new scrubbing pad. Promising review:"So, we have a toilet that belongs to the cats. We don't use it, we don't look at it, we like to pretend it does not exist. Even with semiregular flushing, cat waste is pretty nasty stuff and builds up quickly in the bowl. One of these wands cleaned it up in a single session! Before-and-after pic attached (above)." — Whitney Get it from Amazon for $11.99. 11. A long-lasting pomade hair wax stick with a mess-free applicator so you can easily slick back stray hairs or smooth edges — without having sticky hands! One reviewer even says it's "better than gel." 👀 Promising review:"I saw this on YouTube and immediately wanted to try it. I have curly hair, which I love, but sometimes I just want to put it in a ponytail and go on with my day. This is a time saver for all those little hairs that tend to stick up or don't want to stay in place. I'm not a fan of hairspray, and this even smells nice. I believe it's a light coconut smell. Overall satisfied, and you don't need to use much. I took it with me on vacation, and it saved me time in the evening from having to deal with bad hair days." — Blanca Perez Promising review: "I have 4A-4B curls. When my hair is straight, there are a few spots that are a little frizzier than others, which, to me, isn't a big deal. Some flyaways, however, were the biggest reason why I got this. It lays the baby hairs and is a little bit of a heavier product. I will say, you just have to be careful if you're not used to using heavy product. The first time I used it, I just put a little in my hands and then put it where it was needed." — Jay Get it from Amazon for $7.19+ (also available in multipacks). 12. A mold and mildew stain remover to whiten the dirty caulk and grout in your sink, shower, and tile floors that's... well... seen better days. All you do is apply it, wait 6–8 hours, and (with *no* scrubbing required) you'll see a VERY visible difference. One reviewer who got it after reading one of our articles and said "It's unbelievable!" Promising review:"Didn't think it would work, but it DID with no scrubbing!! My husband didn't think our grout was originally white, but I knew better. I put this on before bed on a section of grout in the shower, and woke up to gorgeous and bright white, no scrubbing at all the next morning. Just rinse it off. Absolutely buying another bottle. It wasn't quite enough for my entire shower, but to be fair, we have a lot of small tiles. I think two bottles will get the whole shower floor. Bravo on a great product." — thekuan Get it from Amazon for $14.99. 13. A waterproof Philips Norelco OneBlade electric hair trimmer reviewers say doesn't cause any nicks, irritation, or razor bumps *and* it's the best shaver they've ever owned! The 360 blade means you can shave in any direction, so every last hair is taken care of. Bonus: a little symbol appears on the shaver when it's time to replace the blade (isn't that so cool?!). Promising review: "Finally, I found a shaver I'm completely satisfied with! I get a smooth shave with low noise, easy to clean in seconds, and doesn't get razor bumps like I used to with other shavers. And some were quite expensive, however this is my favorite one by far! If you have coarse, thick hair and sensitive skin, then I strongly suggest this trimmer!!! A++++" — KDEE27 Get it from Amazon for $37.99. 14. A slicker brush to clean, dentangle, and fluff up blankets and carpets that look a little... gnarly. It's designed to make sheepskin, wool, cashmere, merino, and faux fur look brand new again. Promising review:"Where have these been all my life? We purchased a couple of beautiful charcoal-gray (dyed) sheepskin rugs for both sides of our bed. It used to feel really nice to get out of bed and set your feet on them. But after many years and a couple of dogs, my reaction to putting my feet down is, 'Ew. What the heck did I just step on?' Because of the dye, we can't just wash them or get them too wet. And I'm kind of lazy and forgetful. (Meaning, I've been thinking of taking them to a dry cleaner for years — but how much will that cost?) After our puppy had an accident (the worst kind of accident) on one, I knew I had to do something. These rugs weren't cheap, so tossing them wasn't an option. I cleaned up the 'accident' as best I could, but that left the spot feeling kind of dry and crunchy. So, after reading and googling, I decided to try one of these wire wool brushes. HALLELUJAH! It took some muscle to thoroughly brush each rug, but wow, not only did it re-fluff and revive the wool, but it also pulled up a lot of loose dirt and anything that was stuck to the fibers. I really wish I had gotten this brush sooner!" — Renee Get it from Amazon for $17.99. 15. A root touchup powder for grown-out roots, grey hairs, or any spots you want to appear fuller — just tap the spongey end on your head to apply wherever you want! It's the perfect temporary fix in between salon appointments because OF COURSE your favorite hair stylist is booked out for the foreseeable future... Gray hair is still fierce (just look at Jane Fonda) so feel free to let those silvery strands shine! Check it out in action on TikTok here! Promising review: "This product is awesome. Covers the grays/roots. Stays on all day. Also, if you have thin hair, it will fill in the spots nicely. Comes with a sponge that you unscrew off the bottom. This will last a very long time. This is much easier to use than the spray that doesn't always get the right spots and tends to get on your clothes. A good selection of colors. Great price. Will re-order when the time comes." — Amazon Customer Promising review: "LOVE! so easy to use and perfect for helping my thinned hairline from postpartum hair loss. I tried a more expensive brand and liked this one more. Definitely recommend it for helping the hairline look fuller. I toss it in my makeup bag and apply quickly ." — Catie B. Get it from Amazon for $14.36+ (available in two sizes and 14 colors). 16. A handy little Pikk-it tool so you can take out the hair in your vacuum's roller brush — it's hurting your $$$ machine's ability to clean! You can use it for hairbrushes, too, 'cause ripping out stray hairs with your finger is just not as effective. Amazon, Promising review: "Between myself (medium long hair) and my overly fluffy cat, a lot of hair and fluff was continually getting caught up on the roller brush of my vacuum. I dreaded vacuuming because it took so long to pull and snip the hairs wrapped up on the roller brush out with scissors. Not anymore! This silly, little, inexpensive thing works great! Super quick to remove all the hair/fur — in virtually a minute, then back to vacuuming with my lovely Miele vacuum." — MKS Get it from Amazon for $8.99. 17. An exfoliant foot peel that'll leave you GAGGED at how much skin comes off — and you'll be equally satisfied with your baby-smooth feet. If you have cracked heals, calluses, or dead skin all over the bottoms of your feet, just slip on these booties for an hour and watch your feet shed for the next 5—7 days. Slipping your newly soft dogs into fuzzy slippers has never felt better! Promising review:" This foot peel is THE TRUTH and got my feet right and smooth as butter! I've never done a foot peel in my life and so I had a lot of hard skin under my foot to get rid of. I followed the instructions on the box, and decided to put on the foot peel on right before bed. You can feel the peel tingling and working while you have it on your feet so I felt relief. It took about three days after I did the peel to see the results starting. Do not get discouraged if you see peeling only at the toes. That's just the start of the next day I felt the mid of my foot arch bubble after my bath and a whole piece of skin was peeling. This peel did its job and some more! It has my feet feeling baby smooth and gave me a feeling of being in a salon without the polish. It felt good to pamper myself. This is my go-to from now on, when I want a good smooth foot AFTER a pedicure (because a pumice stone can't do what this peel can)!" — Shopinista Get a pack of two from Amazon for $19.99 (available in five scents). 18. Or, a bottle of professional-grade callus-removing gel that's way stronger and " melts off" tough, dead calluses to reveal softer, more supple skin, especially if you were a little extra hard on your feet or wore overly tight shoes. Reviewers say they prefer the results from this *over* treatments they get at salons! Just presoak feet, apply the gel, let sit for 5–10 minutes, and rinse! It's recommended you go back in afterward with a foot file just to make sure no residue or dead skin is left behind. Want to know more? Check out our full Lee Beauty Callus Remover write-up! Promising review:"I have the driest heels and this is the ONLY product that has ever worked. Before I used this, my heels had some pretty deep cracks and now they're almost baby soft again. BUT please follow the directions... left it on my super-dry thick-callused heels for only three minutes and the calluses were literally melting off! Wonderful product! So glad I don't have to go soak my feet in those tubs at the nail salon anymore." — Kiki Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three styles and as a two-pack). 19. A carpet spot cleaning spray — it helps remove the coffee, red wine, and food stains that make you say, "Ugh!" Cleaning accidents will be easy thanks to this fast-acting and no-rinse formula. Check out this TikTok of the Folex Carpet Spot Remover to see it in action! Promising review: 'There are products that you love and buy again. And then there are products that you love and can't live without. And then, above that, are a few select products that you revere and hold with the highest honor. Folex is that product. I have used Folex for years, and it works wonders on everything from spilt coffee, wine, and dog messes, without any chemical smells or residue. But my love for Folex grew so much deeper when I dropped a 32-ounce jar of salsa down the stairs. My husband took one look and declared that the stairs were ruined and would need to be replaced. I took a look, grabbed the Folex, and said, 'We've got this.' If you have children, pets or are very clumsy with your canned goods, you need this bulk-size jug in your arsenal of cleaning supplies.' — Carobnty Get it from Amazon for $6.88+ (available in two sizes and in multi-packs). 20. Gold Bond's firming neck and chest cream that can help tighten skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, while simultaneously moisturizing (thanks to the hyaluronic acid). Some reviewers noticed an "immediate" difference in their skin, noting that it's *BETTER* than the more expensive creams they splurged on. 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). 21. And a retinol body lotion to help skin appear tighter and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and sun damage. And reviewers say that using it consistently helped the appearance of the textured skin on their upper arms and legs. Promising review:"I could kick myself for not trying this sooner! It is my new favorite lotion... After one night of using this, I woke up to smooth, soft moisturized skin that wasn't itchy at all. This lotion goes on and absorbs beautifully. It's not too thin or thick, and the scent is sensational... It's not greasy or slick and does not have a residue that pills or transfers." — TickTokAlice Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (also available in two-pack). 22. A hydrating lip-plumping gloss set with a ginger plumper to give the appearance of fuller lips during the day and a mint moisturizing mask for nighttime use. Reviewers say the plumper " delivers on its promise" and gives a spicy-tingling sensation but isn't overwhelming. 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. 23. A self-tanner to help you get a sun-kissed glow that looks so good, people will think your tan came STRAIGHT from Aruba — even though it came from this mousse. It has *no* horrible scent (aka you won't smell like a wet dog), and it takes just one hour to develop an even (!!) tan. Promising review: 'If you use St. Tropez tan products or any fake tanner, do yourself a favor and try this. This stuff is AWESOME. Dries quickly, lasts longer, does NOT make your skin stinky, applies evenly, and you get a fair amount of product!! Other tanners I've used become VERY noticeable when they start fading. Gross hand lines, patchy white spots, etc., but not this stuff. The best one-hour tan I have ever used!' — Review Writer Get it from Amazon for $8.50+ (available in 13 shades). 24. I Dew Care's ultra fine dry shampoo powder that'll make oily, flat hair more voluminous without any hint of greasiness! It's compact, easy to apply, and safe to carry onboard a flight since it's not in an aerosol can (unlike other dry shampoos). Just dab the cushiony end on your roots, shake out the product, and style — then you're done! Promising review: "I almost want to gatekeep. By far THE best dry shampoo I've ever used — not sure how this sorcery works, but I'm obsessed!" — Robertson Promising review: "I originally bought this for a month-long trip to Australia (that began with five days of camping without much time to stop by a store). I wanted something small and non-aerosol (because travel), and hate applying powder by hand and didn't want to bring an application brush. The application sponge is great, and the powder itself is also magic. I was a DAILY hair washer most of my teenage and adult life, but now I can go an entire WEEK with this stuff (and other mindful habits like night braids). I really love it."— Bre Get it from Amazon for $18 (available in seven shades). 25. A maximum strength wart-removing gel designed to dry out and remove these growths thanks to its salicylic acid-based formula. It even comes with waterproof patches so you can conceal your wart and prevent it from spreading. Promising review:" I had five awfully painful plantar warts on my foot for about four months. They were all about a 1/4 inch apart on the ball of my foot and I had a massive one under my second toe. It was becoming hard to walk with how painful they were. This was a Hail Mary and it worked phenomenally. The gel coats well right where you apply it. It doesn't have an awful stench. I applied it every three to four days for a couple of weeks. I noticed the pain was less and less until I didn't notice any. Last night I was actually able to pull and peel the remains of the dead warts out!! Kinda gross, but kind of cool. Seriously, this product works. If you have annoying is the answer!!!" — CJ805 Get a kit with the gel and 12 patches from Amazon for $14.99. 26. A polar bear-shaped hydrating balm that'll help dark circles *and* eye puffiness all in one swipe. This balm infused with Icelandic glacial water and niacinamide is the perfect way to look and feel a little more refreshed — even if you got, like, zero sleep! It also helps tighten eye wrinkles if you'd prefer for them not to be as noticeable. And bonus: It reduces puffiness faster if used after refrigeration. Promising review:" This stuff is magic! I purchased this product on a recommendation from a BuzzFeed list, and was not disappointed! I have not been sleeping well due to stress, and the first day I used it, my coworkers commented how well-rested I looked! I told them about it and all of them ordered one for themselves. Very impressed!" — Saminyah Marcelin Get it from Amazon for $9.89 (available in three styles and in larger multipacks). 27. Plus, Catrice's "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener so you can make under-eye bags and discoloration vanish with a small amount of product — reviewers say a little goes a long way! It's packed with hyaluronic acid and shea butter to help your skin look nourished and radiant, so you can take on the day with an "I slept a full 10 hours" glow. Promising review: "Anyone with dark under-eye problems like myself needs to have a brightener! I used to spend $40 on Becca, but this one is better, in my opinion!! It's very pigmented and covers blue hues in the corners of my eyes. It can be worn alone, but I prefer it under my concealer. It blends incredibly well; it's very creamy and easy to apply. It will probably last me six months — a little dab goes a long way. It's extremely buildable, too. I am just so in love. I'm a sucker for saving money, and this purchase just saved me over $30. I will recommend to all my friends and family. Just BUY it!" — Caitlin Newcomb Promising review: "Bought this after seeing an influencer use it on TikTok. This works really well. I can instantly see a difference when I use it under my eyes. For the price, this is a win-win. I had never heard of this brand, but I will be using their products more often." — Kerry C Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in four shades). 28. An Anua pore-clearing cleansing oil that can help control sebum, remove blackheads *and* dissolve makeup — some people are even left with visible residue on their fingertips! If you want to start double cleansing, this is the perfect first step. As the name implies, double cleansing is a method of cleansing your face twice: first with an oil-based cleanser, and again with a water-based cleanser to help your pores stay super, super clean. Promising review:"BEST OIL CLEANSER I SWEAR. I've gone through 3-4 bottles now and it continues to cleanse my skin AMAZING. It melts makeup, clears pores. Honestly a heaven-send. The first time I used it, it cleared a lot of my sebum and even now when I use it, it clears any dead skin and dirt I have, even when I don't wear makeup. BUY IT, it's amazing." — rexichor Promising review: "Got it because it was all over my TikTok and I wanted to try the double cleansing. And wow, I don't regret it, it's amazing!!!! Leaves my skin so soft and so hydrated. I use it before my water base cleanser and it has helped me reduce my breakouts. I love the texture, the smell is very subtle (you can barely smell it) and I just love it." — Linette González Get it from Amazon for $17.69. 29. A Kojic Acid Dark Spot Remover Soap that helped one reviewer make their dark spot of 20 years *poof* into existence. It's formulated with powerhouse ingredients like retinol, vitamin C, and turmeric to help hyperpigmentation disappear. And if you're worried it'll leave your skin feeling dry or stripped, it *also* has shea butter, olive oil, and hyaluronic acid to help combat that. Promising review:"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 Promising review: "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 set of two from Amazon for $14.99 (also available in multipacks). 30. A prescription-strength Differin retinoid gel to help fight, treat, and prevent future breakouts with consistent use — reviewers say it takes time to see results! It can normalize skin cell turnover, restore skin texture, and get rid of those inflamed, clogged pores that sweat, dirt, and oily skin can cause. Promising review:"Look, I don't know what kind of magical potion is in this little bottle, but I've used it approximately four times in the past week, and my skin is GLOWING. My pores are suddenly nonexistent, and my blackheads have shrunk. This stuff is amazing. Also, it's really moisturizing and not as irritating as other retinoids I have used in the past. The bottle is smaller than I was expecting, but it is worth every penny. Great stuff. 11/10." — Demi Promising review: "This stuff actually works. I work in a spa, and I've tried dozens of different products that cost five times the price to try to clear up my acne-prone skin, and NOTHING has worked, as well as Differin gel. One of my esthetician coworkers recommended it to me, and dang if she wasn't right. It will dry out your skin pretty badly so make sure you have and use a good moisturize,r but my skin cleared up in less than two weeks, and I'm still amazed." — Rin Wisell Get it from Amazon for $13.69+ (available in four sizes). 31. One/Size blurring setting powder to help minimize the appearance of fine lines and blur pores. You'll get up to 24-hour shine control, so you can literally wear this for a full day and still have flawless makeup. Plus, you won't get any flashback if you want to take a mirror selfie at work! Sephora One/Size is a queer, Filipino-owned business founded by makeup expert Patrick Starr to ensure that makeup is really one size fits all, as it should be. BuzzFeed Shopping writer Jordan Grigsby owns this and swears by it: "I love love love this stufffff, omg. My skin is oily oily (gotta say it twice for emphasis), and I have spent my entire teen/adult life looking for products that'll make me matte and KEEP me matte. I've tried so many setting powders and literally none can compete with this one. This powder is a serious bad B. I mean, pores? Nonexistent. Oily shiny face? Not up in here. BTW, I am a brown-skinned woman, and the translucent shade works perfectly for me. No caking, no flashback, nothing. Looks just like my skin!!" Promising review: "Literally, what's in this powder? Beauty spells? I have normal to dry skin but tend to grease up pretty easily when I use dewy foundations. I used this for the first time today and fell absolutely in love! I usually don't care too much for high-end powders or powders at all but this one for me is top tier. It didn't necessarily dry out my skin, but it stopped it from becoming greasy, and it kept my makeup looking the same as when I applied it for hours. I definitely will be repurchasing; I've never been more in love with a setting powder!" — Kamoni Get it from Sephora for $18+ (available in two sizes and eight finishes). 33. A Briotech spray with a hypochlorous acid formula (which is antibacterial) that can help reduce inflammation, redness, irritation, *and* help you avoid those pesky breakouts. It's a super easy way to cleanse your skin without washing your face! Reviewers compare it to the Tower 28 SOS Spray, which is pricier, but it does the same(!) thing(!!). BTW, people also love this for helping heal piercings. Promising review: " What is this sorcery? Okay, so I'm not gonna lie. I thought all of the before and after pics were fake, but I was desperate so I bought this stuff anyway. I had been dealing with an irritation bump for almost three months that I couldn't get rid of, so I did some research and tried a variety of home remedies, none of which worked. Then I stumbled upon the Briotech spray and saw the before and after pictures and wanted soooo badly to believe them. I also didn't want to get my hopes up, so I wrote them off as fake. I bought this stuff anyway (again, I was desperate) and I'm SO glad I did. I bought it on Sept. 5, and my bump (which was huge and awful) was completely gone on Sept. 25. I'm still in shock that it worked, but I'm so happy it did. Buy this! Stick with it, and I promise you won't regret it!" — iamericadelaney Get an 8-ounce bottle from Amazon for $16.49 (available in four sizes and in multipacks). 34. Truremedy Naturals Remedy Tea Tree Oil body wash to help calm and soothe skin irritations like athlete's foot, ringworm, or good ole dry skin.

Promising review:"I usually use Dr. Bronner's, but I wanted to give this a try after seeing it on TikTok. I actually like this better and feel really clean after using. Love the fresh smell. Also helped an eczema breakout." — KJeanine ATL Promising review: "This is my favorite body wash ever! I was dealing with some serious postpartum BO, and this saved me! Results fromthe first use!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $14.49. 35. Essence's Volume Booster Lash Primer because this, plus your go-to mascara, makes for a match made in heaven — aka your lashes will look super volumized. You'll fall in love with this nourishing, moisturizing formula that's packed with acai oil and mango butter! Just apply it until you see a thin, white layer, and then let it sit for 20–30 seconds before putting on mascara. And if you're wondering *which* mascara to pair this with, I suggest Essence's Lash Princess (it has 260K 5-star reviews and only costs 5 bucks!!). Promising review:"Saw this primer recommended on TikTok and they were right. Let it dry before mascara application, and it does wonders. Adds volume! Stays all day." — JC Get it from Amazon for $4.99 (also available in a three-pack). 36. NYX Brow Glue — reviewers say it holds your eyebrow hairs in place all day, leaves behind no flaky residue, and can give you a ~feathered~ *or* more natural brow look depending on how you apply it. Some say this is cheaper (and " better") than Anastasia Beverly Hills's "brow freeze"! Promising review: "I would use hairspray to hold my eyebrows and throughout the day I would sweat through it and it wouldn't last. I tried this because the price was great and I'm glad I did. This product is awesome. I've had it on my brows for a nine-hour shift and they are still in place! It doesn't dry and get flakey, nor does it feel uncomfortable on the skin. Lastly, I use brow powder and this does NOT affect the look of the powder nor does it smudge it. I will FOREVER buy this product." — Shelby Get it from Amazon for $9.97 (available in five shades). 37. Mielle's Rosemary Mint oil that can help strengthen and promote hair growth at the root thanks to its biotin-rich formula. Reviewers with all hair types, from " very-straight" to " type 4c" love this product! According to the Cleveland Clinic, some researchers have found rosemary oil to be as effective at encouraging hair growth as Rogaine! And read more about how biotin could help with the fullness of hair at Cleveland Clinic. Promising review: "Legit magic in a bottle. Wish I could order this stuff by the gallon. Took a chance on this because I was desperate, having already spent so much money on luxury and drugstore products with little results. I use this as a pre-treatment on scalp and ends before I wash hair. Scalp has improved dramatically. I feel like there's not as much breakage/fallout, and my ends are fuller. (This is after like six months, but my scalp was better immediately)." — Claire Blanchard Promising review: "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.
