Look, I know a hiccup-banishing straw sounds too good to be true, but one person would give it 100 stars if they could.

Promising review: "Hands-down, one of the coolest and cutest kitchen gadgets I own. I bought this pitter because my father is a HUGE Bing cherry fan. When cherry season is in, you can guarantee he'll be sitting in his recliner with a bowl full of cherries. He normally eats cherries and pits them in his mouth, but in his older age, I worried about him cracking a tooth or choking on the pit. So I bought this pitter, and it was an INSTANT hit! He loved how cute it was, and the pitter does an amazing job. Easy to use, not a ton of force needed, and then the pits are in one place and easy to throw away!" —cocade27

They're made with hypoallergenic medical-grade gel. 

Promising review: "It really does feel good to get your toes spread apart. It is, in fact, therapeutic and relaxing. I'm happy and I think I may get some as gifts. They're easy to clean and pretty too! I am a tired mama and I will take all the self-care hacks I can get! Easy to put on. They also stay put even when doing little foot stretching movements like curling your toes." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I was extremely skeptical about this product actually working at first. I saw this on TikTok and started reading the comments, which were all positive reviews, so I decided to try. Let me just say I no longer have to awkwardly run to the bathroom after my fiancé and I do the dirty. This product works!" —brittany simmons

Promising reviews: "I laughed when I first saw the picture of this item. I thought, well, if they don’t work, I’ll use them for a costume. But they are amazing at pulling weeds. I use mine for those pesky weeds in the rocks. One pull and you get root and all." —cynthia Williams

"Not gonna lie, these things are FUN. Using a claw tool is useful, but it's way more fun to go at the dirt like a happy puppy with these gloves. Go after that turf like you're Catwoman. Whip that garden into shape like you're Black Panther. Makes gardening a little more silly and whimsical, and sometimes that's what I need to accomplish my chores." —Theresa Tomblin

Get it from Amazon for $5.96+ (available in three colors and as a pack of two).

Promising review (for photos above): "This stuff is SO great! You use the little spatula it comes with and put a thin coat on and before you know it you look like something from the walking dead! When it bubbles it does itch a bit, but you just have to push through it (the price of beauty). It's [wild] how the mask grows. When it's done getting bigger, I take it off which can be kinda messy but I use unscented baby wipes and it's not too bad. You could use a washcloth and rinse it out a bunch of times as well. When the mask comes off, your skin is hydrated, smooth, pores are miraculously clean... it's like getting a facial in a jar! Highly recommend." —Sheriann

To use, mix the powder and activator and apply it to your face. Check out a TikTok of the Skin 1004 zombie mask in action! 

Promising review: "I was gifted the Hanacure masks and loved them, but they're just way too pricey. I heard SO many wonderful things about the Skin 1004 zombie mask, and at this price, why not?! Let me tell you, this mask is just straight-up magic. I didn't notice any changes to my skin immediately, but a few hours later, when I looked in the mirror, I was shocked at how wonderful my skin looked. I've never noticed a difference like this. Hanacure who?!?? Don't get me wrong, the Hanacure mask is amazing and magical too, but it's expensive and impossible to maintain the twice-weekly mask schedule recommended. This Zombie mask is every bit as magical with better results, in my opinion. And it's super funny. A lot of the reviews mention a bad smell, which I was worried about, but I didn't notice a smell, and I'm so sensitive to smell that I can't use scented lotions, lip balms, etc. Bottom line, this is better than Hanacure, both price and results-wise." —Dana Dane

Because they're flexible, they're also a bit harder to break!

Promising reviews: "I wear mine every day! I have long, thin, fine hair so went with the smaller version and it holds everything up without having to adjust for most of the day. I can lay my head back to read or watch TV, and to sleep I just throw my spun up hair on top of my head and clip it there (my husband calls it a sushi roll, lol). It’s super comfy and holds so well! Definitely will get more colors and probably some for my mom and sister!" —Emaley B. 

"I’ve been scrolling past these for a while and regret not buying them sooner. BEST CLIP EVER INVENTED! From a curly hair girl who needs two clips always to hold my hair up — these are by far THE BEST i’ve ever tried. When they say “this is the last clip you’ll buy,” they’re so right!! :) It’s truly so comfortable and also very efficient. I purchased two in black for my job as a yoga teacher and normally I get headaches from my other clips from cheaper brands or from any other updos. With my Mello clips — I can’t even remember my hair is up and literally forget I have two clips in. They feel like a cloud and for a girl who takes naps between jobs, you can’t feel them being affected while laying down. Entirely worth my money and letting everyone i know about these!!" —Megan W.

Promising review: "I love this little guy. I found him on a BuzzFeed list and had to have it as soon as I saw it! I’ve minced as many as five cloves in it in seconds. It’s a little tricky getting all of the garlic out once minced (I use a silicone basting brush to get most of it, but I always use more than the recipe calls for anyway, so it’s not a deal breaker). Cleanup is a breeze because he goes right in the dishwasher!" —Barbie

Read more about how dry brushing exfoliates and helps promote circulation at Cleveland Clinic. And read more about lymphatic drainage at the Cleveland Clinic, too. 

To use, use gentle, stroking motions in an upward direction following lymphatic pathways.

Promising review: "I have been astounded by how nicely this has helped with drainage. My entire adult life I have woken with a puffy face and a thick feeling in my throat that lasts for hours as I sip a hot beverage and clear my throat like I'm starting a cold engine.... Since starting to use this brush, I sip water while I brush and by the time I'm done, so is that thick pleghmy feeling! My skin is visibly lifted and the bristles are so soft it almost feels like a massage. The handle is sturdy and I'm very pleased with the quality considering the reasonable price.

I tried it on my husband so he could feel the softness and you could definitely see the difference from one cheek to the other! 😆" —Heather O'Sullivan

Basically, forcefully sipping through this lil' gizmo helps disrupt the reflex arc between the irritated vagus nerve and phrenic nerve, which can be to blame for short-term hiccups. If you’re concerned about your hiccups, talk to your doctor. Read more about hiccup causes and treatment at Cleveland Clinic. 

HiccAway is a small biz specializing in this product, which was invented by Dr. Ali Seifi, M.D with the aim of replacing silly remedies for hiccup relief. 

Promising review: "I was admittedly skeptical at first but I gotta say, I was SO wrong because this thing is SO right. Wow. I mean, it's instant relief. I get the hiccups sometimes, and they'll last for a super long time, and they kind of hurt sometimes, too. This straw, after one sip, makes them disappear in what feels a miraculous way! If I could give 100 stars, I wouldn't hesitate." —MW

Shower Cat is a small business established in 2021 specializing in products to prevent shower clogs. 

Promising review: "I first saw this product on TikTok, and I knew immediately that I needed it. I just moved into a new apartment, and I didn’t want to be how I used to be, where I’d just let hair go down the drain and eventually plug it, or peel it off the drain after each shower. It works great, but I probably need some practice with it. I currently just floss my hair through it so it will hold them, and there are a few stray hairs that don’t stick. I would recommend to anyone who is tired of putting their loose strands of hair on the shower wall." —Cari Schwartzkopf

Get it from Amazon for $14.95 (available in white and pink).

Promising review: "Where was this years ago? Works great for sebaceous filaments on the nose, clears them up well. It's a powder, but as soon as you rub it onto your finger or skin, it turns creamy. A little goes a long way." —Anon

Get it from Amazon for $9.90 (also available as a two-pack). 

Check out a TikTok of the phone umbrella in action. 

Promising review: "I got this little umbrella because I'm always outside for work, and the sun shines bright. I always have to put information in my phone for work and sometimes I can’t step to the shade to do so. The sun protection is good, and the performance and size is perfect for my phone. I’ve had people ask where I got it because they also need one." —Garza Jboss

Promising review: "I followed the instructions and placed it about three fingers' width below my palm, and it works! For this price, I'm amazed I waited this long. It's a plus that it is decent-looking and can be part of your outfit. I experience severe motion sickness, particularly on boats and planes. Sometimes I would even forgo vacations because I don't want to deal with the nausea on the plane. This past vacation, I was going on a 20+ hour flight AND a boat tour. I was realllyyyy dreading it. Put me on an idle boat and it's game over. BUT! This time I had these magical wrist bands. I wore it for the whole flight and the whole boat tour. I wore it on these bumpy car rides up and down the mountains. The boat even idled on the water for like an hour for the sun to set. I felt ....fine?? I was AMAZED. I feel like I can live!! My family can benefit from more vacations now!" —tl

Promising review: "I cannot live without these for 12-hour hospital shifts. This is an unbelievable product! I work 12-hour shifts in the hospital and need protection for the corn on my left big toe. I purchased size large, and it fit well. Underneath my socks and athletic shoes, I completely forgot I was wearing them — bonus! The silicone is very soft and flexible, and cleans easily. The product is priced well for the quality and quantity that is provided. Would absolutely recommend this since it's held up quite well for the 17 hours I often have it on (from the time I wake up until I'm back from my shift). Cleans and dries easily and has maintained its shape." —LJ

Promising review: "This moisturizer is one of the nicest feeling moisturizers ever. The appearance of the vitamin C capsules inside the gel goop on TikTok enticed me to purchase it for myself. This moisturizer has a gel-like consistency and comes with a scooper, making it very easy to apply. You get a decent-sized jar of moisturizer for the price, and the moisturizer is pretty thick. Although it is sticky, I would say it absorbs into your skin pretty quickly. It may leave a slightly sticky residue behind, but I think overall it is amazing for all skin types. After using this in the a.m. before sunscreen, I noticed my skin really glowed and felt smooth! I had gifted a jar to my 60-year-old mother and she had told me how her skin felt like a baby’s bum the next morning!" —tracey + kiwi

Each crop produces 3–4 servings of mushrooms, and each box can grow up two crops.

Back To The Roots is a California-based small business founded by two college friends that specializes in indoor gardening kits with a mission to reconnect families to food.

Check out a TikTok of the mushroom kit in action. 

Promising review: "This product has been so much fun to watch! I followed the directions, exactly as written, and the mushrooms began growing within 3–4 days. I will say that I did soak them for close to 10 hours before putting them back in the box to grow and I believe this helped a ton. I also kept the box inside by a window with the blinds closed in order for them to get indirect sunlight. The mushrooms grew tremendously for almost a week before they started to shrink so I clipped them to cook with and they were DELICIOUS! This was such a fun product and process to watch." —Steph Card

Check out a TikTok of the foaming pink drain cleaner in action. 

Promising review: "Wow! I don't think I've ever been more excited to use a cleaning product before. Who knew you could get so much satisfaction from a drain cleaner. I could probably make an ASMR video and post it, as it is that satisfying! Even though I had to angle this over my sink drain, to avoid the low faucet, it worked perfectly. The foam went down the drain and up through the overflow, bringing lots of black, yucky gunk with it. I have used lots of drain cleaners before, but not one that actually came up through the overflow. I'd never even considered what stuff was in there. It did a great job of cleaning everything out and it left the sink smelling fresh and clean as well." —Amazon Customer

Drop It recommends 1–2 drops for each glass of white wine, 2–3 for a glass of red, and 7–9 if you're treating the whole bottle at once. Once it's in the glass, swirl lightly for 20 seconds, and you should be good to go!

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly says, "I've tried these before on some weekend friend getaways where we drank a LOT of wine and I think they really work! Just don't get overeager squeezing the bottle because then you can put way too much in your glass and make your wine taste weird. Yep, I did that and learned my lesson." 

Promising review: "I became really sensitive to wine in my 30s and through a lot of trial and painful error, I thought I might have to give up on wine altogether. Then I found out about the preservatives being a possible cause and decided to give this product a shot. So glad I did!! I'm still pretty sensitive to reds but this helps tremendously so that I can have a glass with dinner without a headache immediately settling in. Whites cause me no problem what so ever! I love that it takes so little product to make a difference to a whole bottle. Just a few drops, a few minutes and we are good to go." —CastawayIrons

(Psst — you should consult with your doctor before trying anything new involving your neck/back area to make sure it's safe for you!)

For this, instead of like a regular pillow, you're supposed to lay on it in 10-minute intervals; the seller suggests working your way up to it by starting yourself off at five minutes at a time, with a 1–3-day adjustment period before regular use.

Promising review: "This neck relaxer is so easy to use! It took a few times to get used to, but it is not uncomfortable and is very much helpful with my chronic neck pain and shoulder tension. I felt pain relief after the first use! I have even been able to cut back on my chiropractor appointments because of this product. So thankful for this amazing find, as I am only 41 and have been struggling with neck pain for several years now." —Mary Beth

Bounce Curl is a small business that specializes in curl brushes. 

Check out a TikTok of the Edgelift Curl Brush in action. 

Promising review: "Best brush hands down, I am a mixed girl with thick curly hair, and when I run this brush through my hair wet, it does magic. My curls after using this in the shower to detangle are amazing, then I use my choice of product to style it row by row, and it gives me bouncy curls that help cover more scalp but separate effectively. It's extremely sturdy. I break brushes all the time, and this one lasts!!!" —Janay K 

Get it from Amazon for $30 (available in three colors). 

Promising review: "After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me, smells great, too. Here's how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt is visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, then I used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like me." —LuckLocust

Promising review: "I have a number of Yeti and other lidded mugs, cups, and glasses I use at the office and clean out in the communal break room sink. I could see a buildup that I just couldn’t get to in the lids, and it was grossing me out! This little tool does the trick! It gets in between the rubber ridges in the rings, all around the lip of the cups and lids, and cleans everything from milk residue to lipstick smudges. I have been using it five days a week for several weeks now, and no signs of wear on the tool. Cleans up great, dries well, does the job." —Alfie

Intimate Rose is a small biz creating wellness products, like dilators, weights, supplements, and more that help treat issues and pain related to the pelvic floor.

Promising review: "Love them. I'm very happy with the results so far. I've been using the weights for 10 days — I started with the ivory and now I'm in the fourth weight! Twice a day for about 15 minutes each time and now I'm able to interrupt my urine stream, something that was not possible before starting. Also, I notice I'm not getting up in the middle of the night to pee. I feel that now that I'm using the heavier weights, the progress is slower, but that's understandable and to be expected. I'm 37 years old, have gone through two vaginal births, and I'm finally feeling a difference! The thing is, I couldn't really do kegel exercises on my own, so I'm very happy with this product and would for sure recommend it. Hopefully will soon reach my pre pregnancy status :)" —r mag

Promising review: "This little ball is genius!! Rolls around in my purse, which I live out of. It picks up a lot of lint, debris, or even crumbs. Easy to find with the bright pink. Just remove and wash and it’s ready to go again. The price was great and something I can use for years. If you live out of your purse this a must-have!!" —dj3biggs

Alleyoop is a woman-owned small business that specializes in functional makeup products. 

Here's what former BuzzFeeder Jasmin Sandal has to say about it: "I gotta say, I love the concept of the Pen Pal from Alleyoop! After using all of the functions (eyeliner, highlighter, lip liner, eyebrow pencil) and as someone who LOVES makeup but was applying as little as humanly possible during lockdown, I think it’s a great tool for anyone looking to streamline their routine. It's ideal to use for touchups come the end of the work day, or a subtle, minimalist way to apply makeup in the a.m. The brow pencil is particularly soft and pigmented, and filled in my eyebrows quickly. I just adore the ease of application of each product, and appreciate the universal, does-it-all-for-you concept. Plus, it saves me so much room in my already-overflowing makeup bag!"

Get it from Amazon for $19 (available in three shades).

It's also easy to clean: Just twist and unlock the roller's ring, gently pull out the stone part, wash the stone with a gentle cleanser, rinse it off, and let it air dry before using it again!

Promising review: "I saw this featured on TikTok and decided to give it a try. It really does work! I have oily skin on my forehead, around my nose, and chin. One swipe in each of the areas and [the] oily, shininess was gone. A must-have in your purse." —Maria S.

Promising reviews: "I’m not even joking, this changed my life. As a songwriter, I just wish I bought this YEARS ago. All of it is such great quality too — suction cup always sticks, pencil almost never needs sharpening (I’m halfway through my second notepad with my current pencil), and the paper is nice and thick." —B. 

"I told my husband out of the blue a few months ago that I would love to have a waterproof notepad to record all of my shower thoughts. Lo and behold, he handed me this dandy notepad on my birthday, and I LOVE it! It is great quality, providing a satisfying writing experience and never smudging. I was worried it would feel weird to write with, but that has not been the case! I write lists, and my hubby and I leave silly notes for one another. Definitely a wonderful gift!" —Noah B. 

This is made of a breathable and soft bamboo fabric and it's machine-washable, so you can keep it fresh between trips. 

Promising review: "We got a few different types of travel pillows for a red-eye to Europe and this was overall our favorite due to its versatility. The loop actually allows you to have various self-supporting positions, and this will contort all sorts of ways to be a pillow, neck rest, armrest… anything. It’s actually just good for any type of travel in general and got a lot of use on the whole trip. The material is soft and comfortable." —Tom Shaw

Promising review: "I live in a second floor apartment and LOVE these! It's so hard to carry multiple bags up the stairs not only because it kills my hands but the weight is also an issue. I was able to carry ALL my bags up in one trip. The padded shoulder allowed me to carry everything over my shoulder. Once I figured out how to put half the bags in front and the rest down the back of my shoulder it was a breeze! I'm buying myself a second one and also buying a set for my sister. Highly recommend!" —cheri b

Promising review: "I'm a nursing student and have to wear my hair in a bun every day. I've tried all the bun makers, watched YouTube videos, and spend way too much time on getting my hair into a bun. I was able to make a pretty bun that was secure in under 30 seconds. I thought it was a fluke so I did it again, and then again.

My 2-year-old loves to sit on hers and read books. She doesn’t have a ton of stuffed animals, so there is plenty of room to add to it for when her collection grows. I love the fun bright print and sturdiness — she drags it all over the ground, but I don’t worry about it tearing at all. Just what she needed in her room." —dd

Promising review: "I first saw this book on TikTok and decided to look more into it. I purchased four total because I know some people holding onto things that are difficult to let go of. It’s a great way to look at things from a different perspective and truly hold yourself accountable to different things in your life. I love what it stands for and I look forward to when I burn mine after I’m done. Self love, self care, and meditation for a better state of mind tomorrow is always the goal. I definitely recommend it to those susceptible to change and the willingness to try things differently. You’re so much more than what’s been done to you and someone’s inability to see your worth does not decrease your value. Choose you for a change." —Brent Helm

Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok a bunch of times and finally decided to get it. I hate the paper lint rollers, they never seem to work that well and I hate that I have to throw them away.
