Promising review: "This is a great way to keep your beverage cold while on the go. These are durable and last a long time. The print and quality of the pictures are amazing and detailed. I got the size large, and it fits all travel-sized cups that you can get. There are so many patterns and color varieties for everyone in the household. The value for your money is worth it. I use mine all the time and have several different colors and prints. You can even get ones for each holiday if you like." —Jill J. Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in three sizes and several styles). Promising review: "I have used them for both plants and light cables. The leaf design blends in nicely and looks decorative. They stick well on smooth walls, but a few lost grip over time — best for light vines. Still, they’re creative and serve different purposes." —Daniela Gomez BuzzFeeder Shopping contributor Chandini Reddy says: "I'm not sure who's more OBSESSED with our Liki Trike...my toddler or me? My active toddler, who absolutely hates being strapped into his stroller, loves that it allows him to sit upright and steer the handles (while I push him), making him feel like he's in control and going on an adventure. It has made trips to the park/mall/zoo so much easier because it is lighter than our stroller *and* folds up tiny, taking up minimal trunk space. (We also took it on a flight recently and were amazed at how easily it fit in the airplane overhead bin!) My fave feature is how seamlessly it steers. Unlike other trikes, you don't need to awkwardly force it to change directions. In fact, my 5-year-old has no trouble navigating my 2-year-old around the park. The best part? My little one is so happy riding around on this thing that he's had barely any meltdowns when we're out and about. I'd say that's a huge win!" BTW, that's my daughter in the photo on the left. I agree with everything Chandini said above *and* wanna shout out how surprisingly well it compacts — small enough to keep in my daughter's closet in our tiny apartment! It's great! Get it from Amazon for $300 (available in four colors). Promising review: "I kept seeing this product on social media and finally decided to give it a try. 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. Product is soothing, gentle on my skin (have extremely sensitive skin), no strong smell, cottons are soft, and did not cause any breakouts! It’s great for the value and I’ll definity be repurchasing these." —Ee El Get a pack of 70 from Amazon for $18.90 (available in seven other styles). Promising review: "If you’re looking for a cute Band-Aid that has flexible fabric, these are it! I only use flexible fabric band-aids because they’re way more comfortable and stay on better. Bonus that these are a cute design!" —Jessica Get a pack of 30 from Amazon for $3.77. Covogoods is a Utah-based, woman-founded small business that specializes in storage solutions crafted from up-cycled books. Promising review: "This is perfect for hiding our router and accessories in our bookcase. Love it!" —supergirl Get it from Covogoods on Amazon Handmade for $39. Find your favorite microwavable animal on SuzziPal's homepage! Promising review: "My grandson likes that it can get warm in the microwave and cold in the freezer. He loves manatees. He thinks it is really soft and really cute! (He told me to write this.)" —Grandma Marva As always, this is a clinical-strength product, so make sure you do a spot test first (especially if you have sensitive skin)! And each box lasts two months! Promising review: "For anyone who might be a skeptic, please allow me to put you at ease. If you have hyperhidrosis, meaning it can be 9 degrees outside and you're still sweating under your arms, this product has the potential to change your life. I would sweat THROUGH a sports coat before noon. Enter the Sweat Block product. I've had it for three weeks, and it is life-changing. I DO NOT sweat under my arms anymore. I'm still on the original box that I bought three weeks ago. I had to write a review after I was cleaning the garage today in 85-degree heat...I was sweating through my shirt on my back...BUT NOT MY UNDERARMS. It is amazing!" —Frosty McGee Get a 10-pack from Amazon for $19.99 (also available in packs of two and three). I own this! I got it after finding it in a BuzzFeed article (yeah, they get me too), and it quickly became a necessity in my skincare routine. I tend not to wear makeup, so anything I put on my skin, even for aesthetic purposes, has to have a purpose. I also need the simplest skincare system possible, or I won't do it, which has made this multi-use balm a real gift in my life! It feels so, so good and leaves my skin looking fresh. 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 and will def try the others!" —Kristy Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in five other formulas). Promising review: "This product is exactly what I was hoping for. It’s great quality. Looks so chic. Such a nice way to dress up a household necessity. Definitely worth it." —Kaylee Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in three sizes and 12 colors). Promising review: "Saw on TikTok (don’t judge) and automatically added to cart. So easy to use, takes probably a minute to fully bubble up and clean, and you’re left with a clean sink! I use with other drain cleaning products, but would 100% recommend for weekly maintenance." —Jessica Hamilton Get it from Amazon for $3.78 (available in multiple pack sizes). Check out a TikTok of the plug-in fly trap in action. Promising review: "I can’t say enough wonderful things about these handy little bug catchers! They are simple to use, cheap to refill, and catch a ton of small bugs and flies. I have eight of them now, all around my house! It’s a little gross how many tiny flying insects are around…but it makes me feel a lot better now that I have these!" —Chris H. Get a pack of two from Amazon for $14.97+ (available in five pack styles). Promising review: "We love this chalk in our family. It's great for party favors and to give in gift bags for young kids. We love the variety of colors - the neon is super bright and fun, the tie dye is my son's favorite, and the glitter is cute too. It’s a great value for the price. We’ve bought them several times and always get compliments when gifting them." —Carley Powers Emikeni is a woman-founded small business that specializes in heatless hair curling tools. Promising review: "This is a game changer! I have very fine, silky hair and using heat tools on a daily basis is causing too much damage. This product is so easy to use and requires no heat! I recommend buying a small spray bottle and fill it with water. Before bed I usually spray my hair a little bit with water, brush it out, and put the silk rod in. I wear it overnight and barely feel it. Next day I have luscious, voluminous curls!" —Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $27.99 (available in three colors). 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!” —Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $12.97 (available in various shades/styles). See it in the same TikTok as above about multisticks! When I say it feels nourishing, it's not just a coincidence. This is made with shea butter, softening avocado oil, and a protective (breathable!) orange peel wax. Promising review: "I have been lazy with my makeup routine as of lately, so having a multi-stick and not having to whip out a brush and brush has been so helpful. I like how I can just swipe this on my cheeks and rub in with my fingertips. It gives a beautiful flush to the cheek area. This product has no smell that I can tell, which I am happy for. I love that this product is clean, and I can feel good about using it. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful and well-made product that is not only good for the world, but good for the face." —Brittany0890 Get it from Sephora or Amazon for $36 (available in 12 shades and radiant or shimmer finishes). Promising review: "Love these raincoats. Ordered three altogether. They are tough, cute, and keep my dogs dry. I have purchased other flimsy raincoats that did not keep my dogs dry. I am extremely pleased with these. The little hoods are cute, too. The purpose of the raincoats is so that I only have to dry off their feet when they return from their walk. These sturdy little coats are great. My furry kids seem to like them, and they stay in place without slipping and sliding. Fantastic price for a great product. Awesome! :-)" —Barbara N. Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL). Each planner comes with 50 tear-off sheets the size of a standard piece of paper. Promising review: "Bought this last week. Love the set up. I can begin in the morning and then reflect at night. It covers everything from what you're grateful for to what you ate that day. I will definitely be using these for a long time!! LOVE LOVE LOVE!" —Chloe Promising review: "This is the most beautiful rug. I love it so much. It’s lightweight, it doesn’t slide, and it has the perfect colors." —David and Kandis Dennis Get it from Amazon for $90.54+ (available in six designs and nine sizes). Promising review: "Bought this brush to replace my old travel brush. Love the storage compartment! Didn't realize that it actually CAME with hair ties, clips, and bobby pins (didn't notice these in the description). Such an amazing surprise. And the brush is great! Detangles and smoothes wonderfully. Even tamed my staticky hair. Love it!" —Crazy cat mama Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (available in two colors). Promising review: "I was looking for a dry shampoo that would be easy to use on the go for a trip I was taking. I had no issues taking this through TSA and it was so easy to use on the go. You literally just pat the poof on your scalp and then rub the powder in. I do have black hair so dry shampoo is usually very visible in my hair, but I didn't have any harder time than usual rubbing this powder in. It did a really good job of soaking up all the oil and giving my hair volume. I'm not a fan of the price for the amount that you get, but it is lasting longer than I thought it would. I would definitely recommend and will purchase again." —Teresa Get two from Amazon for $30.90+ (available in three sizes and nine colors). Promising review: "I was thoroughly impressed with this dry shampoo. It's affordable, effective, and everyone compliments how great I smell when I use it. Two bottles lasted me a few months. It does have a white cast, but that can easily be worked into the hair to become undetectable." —Meg Ryan Blanton Promising review: "LOVE. It is super comfortable to wear and is great for supporting my chest when I go on a run. Doesn't collect sweat, very nice and cool material for hotter environments. I have it is so many colors because I love them so much. HIGHLY recommend!" —Cheyenne Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–3X and 29 colors). BuzzFeed editor Natalie Brown swears by these pasties! Check out her Nippies review to learn more. Promising reviews: "These covers are AMAZING! I used them for the first time this weekend during my bachelorette because of how much white I would be wearing, and they were perfect. I usually use petals, but sometimes you can see the shape of the petal, and my nipple still shows, but these covered my boobs perfectly, and you couldn't see them through a see-through white body suit. They lasted through the night when I forgot to take them off before bed and also lasted through tonsssss of sweaty dancing. I never leave reviews, but I had to spend the word. All my girls on the trip were amazed by them and are all ordering now." —Ashley G, OKC @ashleysglasshouse Get a pair from Amazon for $28.50+ (available in three sizes, with or without lift, and five shades). Promising review: "I've been searching for something to remove the weeds for a while and came across this amazing tool. Since I refuse to use chemicals in my yard, I've been left with scraped knuckles every time I attempt to remove weeds. The weeds have grown so tightly in the concrete cracks that I pretty much gave up; even weed-whacking it didn't help much. Yes, you do have to use a little bit of effort but the end result was so worth it!" —Shelley Arakaki Promising review: "Super easy to set up, and it works! We set ours up, and after charging it and mounting it, the bird fell down. We opened the windows, and about 10 minutes later, the bird went upright. People have commented how cool it look, going to buy as a gift for a family member as well." —M English Get it from Amazon for $199 (available in three colors). This three-piece set includes gloves, a rasp, and a bottle of callus remover. Promising review: "It WILL work! A runner's dream! I used to pay $75-$90 for nail salons to touch my husband's feet. I was losing my mind. My husband is a cross country runner and it shows. His calluses get so deep that they split and cause pain. Pumice stones and rasps alone were not getting through. I soaked his feet for 20 minutes then applied this callus remover. After some time I took the rasp to to those feet and look at the difference (before and after images above)! We will do it again, maybe every two weeks. The goal is to smooth out the calluses so they are not so deep, however calluses are needed for runners. Thanks for reading!" —Naomi D. Promising review: "I have a golden retriever, and the shedding is out of control. My fabric sofa is constantly covered in hair, and I finally decided to try this after reading an article about popular TikTok products. The reviews do not lie, this thing works magic!! I wish I had taken a before-and-after picture because the difference is noticeable. I watched the video tutorial before I tried it to ensure I was using it properly and everything he says is true, you do really have to put your arm to work with vigorous back and forth movement! However, I find it's a great arm workout and it works wonders." —Joanne Ertel Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in four colors). This includes a 59'' x 255'' bed drape, four hanging hooks, and two 63'' wooden hanging bed poles. The poles are already carved for threading the drape through, so you don't have to worry about it slipping and sliding off! Promising review: "I love the fabric so much I’m buying the whole kit again to add more to our canopy. It’s a soft white with a little shimmer, and it drapes very nicely. Installation is so simple." —Melissa County Line Kitchen is a small business specializing in mason jar–style cold brew makers, pitchers, and accessories. Promising review: "This has been a hit in my house. Makes the most delicious cold brew and is of great quality. Has saved a ton of money on going out and on pods I used to buy. I try to let it sit for 48 hours so I can dilute it with a little water to get it to last longer, and throw it in my dishwasher in between uses. Perfect!" —Jo Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in two styles). Promising review: "This lamp is freaking adorable. It's excellent quality and gives off a nice warm light. You can make it brighter or darker depending on what you prefer, and it comes with a little stand. I love that it's a plug-in vs. a battery. This is a great little piece for my kitchen and I couldn't be happier that I bought it. Oh! and it comes with a little remote too." —J.F. Check out a TikTok of the weekly meal planning pad in action. Sweetzer and Orange is a small business specializing in planners, stationery, and educational products. Promising review: "The magnet is great, sticks to fridge very well, does not slide or move. Perfect for planning meals and adding needed grocery items to the right side. Then you just tear off the right side and head to the store. This has made our family meal planning so much easier!" —SandyBeach Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in two styles). Promising review: "I love the uniqueness of these watering tools! They sparkle subtly in the sunshine and provide me with the peace that I can go a few days without watering! Well-designed, and I would buy from this seller again!" —Laura Get a set of two from Amazon for $11.99. Promising review: "They look so real, and I get a ton of compliments on them. Everyone always thinks my husband surprised me with tulips (my favorite flower) and is shocked to learn these are not real. I have several of them throughout my house, and plan to buy more because they are great!" —Abbey S. Get them from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in many colors and in sets of 20, 28, or 60). This lightweight woven rattan shelf can either be hung on a wall or stand on its own. It has a natural finish and includes hardware if you chose to hang it. The feed tray slides out, making it easy to refill and clean, and there's a divider so you can use two different types of feed at once to attract different varieties of birds! Some reviewers even decorated their birdhouses with little frills like moss, flowers, and twine, so you can give it as much flair as you like! Note: If you find that your pets are scaring the birds away, one reviewer recommends applying reflective adhesive so the birds can't see in but your fur babes can see the full show. Promising review: "This feeder sticks really well on the window. It even holds the plump squirrels that sneak into it. 😅 It was super easy to apply and adjust. Our cats absolutely love the close up action they get since we purchased reflective adhesive and put it on the inside of our window. Now the birds have no idea they’re even there, and the cats are in disbelief they get to sit that close to the birds. Overall, a great purchase, my family loves it!" —SRowe Get it from Amazon for $30.99+ (available in two styles). Several reviewers say they just throw theirs right in the washing machine to clean it! They also make a smaller one designed for the bikini area and a long, narrow back scrubber for hard-to-reach areas. Promising review: "MAGIC. HOLY CRAP, I LOVE THIS MIT! This cleared up 80% of the 'chicken skin' I have INSTANTLY after one use. Also, it took off way more dead skin than any scrub I’ve ever used. I never write reviews, so I had to when I got this and loved it." —Cheyanne Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (also available as a pair). Promising review: "Feel like expensive high-end hotel sheets. I normally use flannel sheets year-round because it’s the only material I like, but these are my new favorite. Very soft and cooling. Fit our bed perfectly. I purchased both for our bed and our spare room and have only gotten compliments from guests. Great sheets without the huge sticker price." —Anna Greenlun Get it from Amazon for $40.97+ (available in 15 sizes and 45 colors). PureWine is a small business that specializes in wine accessories. Promising review: "What a difference these have made in my life. With my allergies it was impossible to enjoy a glass or two of wine without nasty side effects: stuffy nose, red face, and headaches. Now I can have a glass of wine and not have to dart to a package of antihistamine! Makes a great gift. Even thinking of splitting a box into stocking stuffers. Each wand is individually wrapped. I have purchased these several times and will continue to do so." —KellyH Get a set of three from Amazon for $11.99. Promising review: "These are, hands-down, the cutest paddles on the court! I thought I was seeing things when I saw Sonix was selling pickle ball paddles!!! I come to Sonix for all my phone cases because they have the cutest and most interesting designs, but looks like now I'm going to buy a few more paddles! Come on, look at this photo (pictured above, left) everyone has these boring paddles. I don't ever have to worry about someone mixing up their paddles with mine! (but also have to make sure no one steals them cuz they're so freakingggg cute!!!!) I've been getting into pickleball, especially now that the weather's getting better. But now I just want to order more to match with different outfits, how cute would that be?!" —Helen Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in 27 colors). I bought these for my daughter waaay before she was old enough to care, because I wanted to play with them myself! They're solid, made of high-quality materials (not plastic), and owned by a small business. Now that my kiddo is older, these have become a staple in our diaper bag on days at the park. We'll spend ages looking for special pieces, seeing if they fit, testing out different configurations, and then have a blast with some imagination play (these little critters get up to a lot of mischief!). Whether you're totally into playing fantastical, made-up games with your kids or need clear directions to create a little whimsy, these have got your back. I recommend them to every parent I know (and now, even those I don't — hi from me!). Get it from Amazon for $27.99 (available in six options). You can read more about the skincare benefits of caffeine at the Cleveland Clinic. Promising review: "This stuff is magic. I’ve tried a lot of products, and this one works the best out of everything I’ve tried. I love the scent. Sol de Jeneiro makes a body spray of it, and I get lots of compliments every time I wear it." —Stephanie Get it from Amazon for $24+ (available in three sizes). This small biz is located in Ocean City, Maryland. Owner Melissa is an Etsy star-seller who creates gemstone jewelry, glass bead suncatchers, and wind chimes. Promising review: "It is absolutely gorgeous, and the seller is friendly and helpful. Five stars." —Sky Get it from The Boho Beach Bum on Etsy for $89.98 (available in three colors). This blanket *delivers* folks. I don't know how they were able to make a blanket this soft, light, and stretchy. I own this and I can easily tuck myself into it and I feel like a swaddled newborn. I really, really value this brand and I can't recommend this blanket enough! Promising review: "The blanket is as advertised! It is super soft and the colors are true to the website image. Love, love!" —Angie S. Get it from Geometry for $89+ (available in two sizes and in several styles). Reviews in this post have been edited for length and clarity.
