Promising review: "I got this to put on my desk in my dorm to provide more storage and I was blown away by the quality. It held all my notebooks and textbooks no problem. I've had a full-sized fern in a terra-cotta pot on it and it hasn't bellowed or buckled. It has many different slots so I could keep all my sticky notes, note cards, paper clips, etc. in arm's reach. It was very easy to assemble and even came with the screwdriver to put it together. I highly recommend it especially if you're a college student or work at a desk frequently." —Breanna Jones Promising review: "Just used this product on a recent trip to Florida. I made sure to wash my skin before application and it lasted about two days on my skin without coming off. When out of the sun or behind UV glass, like in a car, the spot turns clear. As soon as you step into the sun it turns purple. If you use a sunblock it starts to become clear or semi clear. After being on the beach and having gone into the water a few times the spot started seeing purple and I applied sunblock again. In a minute the spot was clear again. So this is very effective In alerting me when to reapply." —RGTorque Promising review: "These earplugs are great! Unlike those typical foam plugs, these actually stay completely in my ears all night with no problems or discomfort. And they completely block out noise. I mean if anything I’d be slightly concerned I don’t hear an emergency in the middle of the night lol! But they really are great. So my sweet spot for these is four nights. Others may get less or more. But they work so well that I don’t have a problem replacing them after four nights. It’s worth it. As long as you have a little common sense on how to form them into your ear, these will work great. If you have long hair, I can see how they might get stuck to it at times. Not an issue with me. But trust me, these work fantastically!" —Greg Check out our full review of Mack's earplugs for more details. Promising review: "We got this screen so our dog can go in and out freely without letting the bugs in. At first he wasn't quite sure about going through it; in fact he scratched at it signaling us to open it for him. But after a few training treats he figured it out. Installation was so easy! The Velcro, fabric, and mesh all seem very good quality. I'm also happy that we can take down the screen in the winter and store away easily, then just reattach it in the spring. Very happy with my purchase!" —Crystal K Price: $29.99+ (available in seven sizes) Promising review: "The seat cover fit my small SUV perfectly and stayed in place, even when my dog scratched and pawed at it. I bundled up the cover after the ride and simply shook out the dog hair and dander. My car seat was left clean. The cover folded up compactly and I stored it in the back of the car. I’m very happy with my purchase." —Diane Price: $31.98+ (available in two sizes and five colors) Promising review: "Love that I don't have to lug fabric softner home or clean up my washing machine from the mess of using softners. Clothes dry faster, I really think they smell better too. Will never go back!" —grammyjams Promising review: "This is a good sturdy composter. We're heavily into reusing our used organic material. We were using a local composting company, but they got too picky about what material we could give them, so we struck out on our own and compost all our organic leftovers. We have a large garden and can now put this organic material back into the soil. The garden is just thriving!" —S Bradbury Promising review: "I absolutely love these. For quite a while, I have been frustrated with kitchen/dish towels. I find most to be not nearly absorbent enough, too large and awkward, and needing frequent disinfecting to avoid smelling funky. These towel sponges are exactly what I needed in a dishcloth. They are absorbent, just the right size, antimicrobial, and easy to clean! Add in that they are sourced from a small family business, and I'm thrilled." —NATHANIEL RIDER Price: $17.99 for a 10-pack (available in nine colors and a variety pack) Promising review: "Love, love, love these!!! I have a lot of medications that I have to travel with, and some of them are very expensive or very important, and I get so worried I will lose some. These hold so many pills and have labels for each, and they are so easy to open and fill, but they also stay closed and seal well!" —Britney Price: $6.99+ (available in three colors) Promising review: "My feet used to be horribly dry, itchy, and cracked with thick calluses. I started using Baby Foot every couple of months a year ago, and my feet are now soft and smooth. Make sure to soak your feet before using and then again at least once a few days later. I leave the booties on for longer than the instructions, usually around two hours. It doesn’t burn or irritate my skin. A few days later, the top layer of skin starts peeling all over. It’s REALLY gross-looking, so make sure you don’t need to show your feet for about two weeks! The results are amazing, so it’s totally worth it! Calluses improve dramatically with one treatment but bad calluses may need a couple of treatments to go away. Make sure to wait at least two weeks before using again. I’ve recommended to all my friends and family. Seems to work for all skin types." —Mostly Maven See a TikTok review of the shaver here! For best results, the brand recommends stretching your skin with one hand, laying the blade flat, and then shaving against the grain. Promising review: "I tell everyone about this! No nicks, cuts, or razor bumps! The battery life is surprisingly long, too! I use this ALL over my body. Trust me when I tell you it saves you time and pain compared to a normal razor!! Seriously, never going back to a plastic one after this!" —Holly Promising reviews: "I am prone to ingrown hairs. I have VERY coarse pubic hair, and every time I shave, I get razor bumps and ingrown hairs as the hair starts to grow back. Very embarrassing. This has led me to lean more toward trimming that shaving. I decided to try to shave one more time — well, I used Nair and removed my pubic hair from my genital area. I used Fur Oil every day morning and night after the removal, and even as the hair grows back and beyond. I would also exfoliate the area about two to three times a week with a coffee scrub that I got on here. The hair has started to grow back with zero bumps or ingrown hairs. It has actually been over a month, and still no issues. This has never happened to me before. I have never not removed hair down there and not had ingrown hairs and hair bumps. This is a new experience for me, and I am loving it. I have even removed hair again since then and still no problems. My only complaint is the size of the bottle, and the smell is so-so. It is a very small bottle for the price. I will continue to use this combination of products, though, because I know it works. I am satisfied." —In the know "GET THIS OIL!!! I CANNOT express enough how amazing this product is!!! I have very fair, sensitive skin, and prior to using this oil, I would get the worst razor burn. My coworker told me to buy it (that's when you know it's bad when your coworker gives you advice after seeing your razor-burnt armpits) because she uses it and was exclaiming about it. Now I only get razor burn in the worst spots every once in a while, but put it on the next day too, and they're gone. Works the best with ingrown hairs too!! Anytime you have one, you just have to do enough to cover the area — a little goes a long way!! — and the nastiest ingrown can be gone the next day. Now I have to use it immediately after drying off after shaving." —Emily Fur is a small business specializing in post-hair-removal products. Price: $27.99+ (available in three sizes) Promising reviews: "I love the look of the huge silk scrunchies on a lot of retail websites, but I'm not willing to pay that much for ONE hair tie. These are a great substitute, and you get four for half the price. (Came in cute packaging, too.)" —Michael L. "Honestly, I was very skeptical because I didn’t think I would like oversized scrunchies, but I have long hair, and I find any other scrunchies always pulling out my hair, so these are extremely comfortable. The downside is now I must get them in all colors. 😃" —Dawn Sullivan Price: $11.99+ (available in various color combinations) Promising review: "Beyond cute and exactly like the picture. The straps are removable, and the bag is the perfect size to hold a phone, small wallet, keys, and some lipgloss. I love the gold hardware, and the quality feels great!" —Julia Hammermeister Price: $15.99+ (available in five colors) Promising review: "I was afraid they'd be cheaply made, unsturdy, or missing stones, but I'm glad I went for it. There is not one piece in this collection that I don't love. I was impressed with the variety of pearls/stones/and the gold-designed pins, as well as the fact that some are the snap barrette style, some alligator clips, and some more along the lines of decorative bobby pins...They are not only gorgeous but very functional as well. They hold a good amount of hair back or pinned up, and they feel secure in my hair the entire day." —Malinda Promising reviews: "I never do reviews, but these earrings are STUNNING. Worth every penny you spend: elegant, lightweight, and a show stopper. GET THEM if you are truly into fashion." —BriannaMichelle "Omg, it’s a MUST THAT YOU BUY these earrings. They were cute on Amazon, but they are even more cute and stylish in person... You can dress these up or down. It doesn’t really matter wear them any way you like and they still are going to look amazing. One thing to note, if you can’t wear heavy earrings, you’re in luck because these are very lightweight and sexy for any occasional outing or professional workplace" —Andrea Ummm, also how cute is that reviewer's pearl headband!? Grab a similar version for $7.99! Promising reviews: "Just what I needed to complete a fun and funky outfit. It’s well made and has plenty of storage space for all you need for a fun night out and about." —C. Suranna "This bag is mini but spacious inside!! I personally use it as a money bag for work !! Other bags like this are $80-$100 that I've seen at boutiques but this one is a fraction of the price with amazing quality. Because I do use it for work, it gets dirty on the outside, and it's very easy to clean and sanitize!!" —Alexis Diaz Promising review: "These sunglasses are my favorite thing now. They are so durable and sturdy, you'd think you paid a boatload for them. The shape is good, not too overbearing on your face, and gives a little bit of an edgy look. I bought them to go on vacation, and I have been wearing them all the time since. Totally recommend." —Michelle Maroon Price: $11.99 (available in 18 lens and frame colors) Promising review: "Love that you can dress this up or down! It is my go-to accessory for working in preschool to put my hair up quickly. It is elegant and classic. It is amazingly durable, even in getting thrown in the bottom of my heavy work bag! I am amazed by this clip. I have coarse, medium thick hair, and it is a perfect size." —Niki Price: $7.99 (available in two finishes) Promising review: "New Year's Day 2019, I woke up at my friend's house after a night of partying to the smell of fresh coffee and bacon frying in the kitchen. So I get up and say good morning to everyone, get myself some coffee, and think to myself, 'Hey! The entire house smells like bacon. It's probably an opportune time for me to 'drop the kids off at the pool' because no one will notice anything I'm making in the bathroom over what Michelle is making in her kitchen.' Anyway, I look on top of the bowl, and there's this stuff. For added protection against embarrassment, I pump a couple of sprays into the bowl and do my stuff. Yup, now I totally smell bacon and oranges, but not a whiff of anything else that might cause my friends to ask me if I need to see a doctor or something. So now I keep a bottle with me just in case I'm in one of those situations when I have, you know, a brown dog scratching at the back door, but don't want anyone to know that I'm letting him out." —D. Grieco Jr. Price: $4.97+ (available in six sizes, in packs of two, and in a variety of scents) They're individually packaged, so you can easily toss some into your bag if you're spending the night with someone. Promising review: "Do you love the feeling of your underwear getting damp hours after adult time? That surprise wetness just as you're about to step into a meeting where you'll be presenting in front of your boss, as well as their boss? If so, this is not for you. For the rest of us, these are amazing. Just slip in one of these, let set while you check your phone, then remove and toss. The package says a few seconds, but my first time using it didn't work, so I did a full minute, and it works every time. No more wet spots to try to sleep in. No more wearing liners after fun time when you have to go to work. I will be a lifelong customer (well, sex life long anyway)." —Monica K. Jones Touchland is a small business that specializes in hand sanitizers. I have been a fan of Touchland sanitizers for years, because they smell SO good, feel great on my skin, and most importantly, never, EVER leak in my bag. I can say with glittery certainty that this new edition takes the CAKE. It has the perfect subtle vanilla sweetness without being overpowering (which is important to me, because most of the time I'm spraying this right before a meal with pals or after being on the train — aka, very public spaces). Price: $36 (also available in ten different multipacks; check out Touchland's Amazon storefront for more options) Psst, as one reviewer points out, it's great styled with or without a belt. Promising review: "I received so many compliments on this shirtdress. I wore it for my backyard rodeo party. It was so comfy, and the quality was nice. The color was light denim, and the length and overall fit were perfect." —Tanika Price: $39.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and several colors) Promising review: "I have used this all day since I got it! Will be buying more!!! Excellent for stainless steel. I had some rust stains on some white ceramic dishes. Removed the stains effortlessly without damaging the finish. Far exceeded my expectations. Goes a very long way. Barely made a dent in the jar, which was priced reasonably. Sinks repel water and remain streak-free." —Jerithom Price: $15.99 (available in five scents) Promising review: "Very convenient and compact! I love how this wraps up perfectly for travel or for my work bag. I have had no issues with it, and all the ports work well. I use this to charge my MacBook Pro." —pr1nc3ssP34ch Price: $16.48+ (available in four colors) Promising review: "Loved twister as a kid and wanted to find a fun activity for my kiddos bday. Twister Ultimate is amazing! And makes it easy to play for larger groups. Fun twists to the old classic game we all love. We have been playing at home every day for a week! So much fun. Great quality, easy to read instructions, packaging is perfect to fold and re store the mat. Functions as expected and more fun than I remembered. Absolutely love it!" —Amelia Promising review: "No need for other pots. This one handles everything, and it is very good-looking. It is also so smooth inside that food just slides out with no sticking and so very easy to clean with just a little bit of soap and soft sponge." —Dale in Tucson Price: $49.99+ (available in five colors) The reviews for this post have been edited for length and clarity.
