Promising review: "This was just what I was looking for to display my clips, but also have access to all of them. It was super easy to assemble and looks amazing in my closet. I am obsessed with clips and was scared this wouldn’t be able to fit my whole collection, but I was surprised by how much could fit on each rod. I would even buy a second one in the future." —alliengo

The liners come with trimming guidelines so you can cut the insert to your desired size.

Promising review: "My shoes get so sweaty, and these flat socks make them wearable in the hot Texas summer! I already bought another pair! They have already been washed, and they are still perfect." —lane hardgrave

Promising reviews: "I need this in bulk!! I have tried so many cleaning solutions to get out hard cooking stains on my stove top, and nothing worked! This stuff took it right out without a problem!!" —Micaela Gunderson

"I was trying to get adhesive off of drywall, and nothing was working. THIS WORKS on everything! It easily took off the adhesive. Then I had a stubborn Corningware stain; I had tried everything. Then I tried The Pink Stuff, and it easily removed the stubborn stain. I will now always keep this on hand!" —David C. Rein

Promising review: "Easy to install and makes the car so much cooler. Very easy to open, close, and install. Perfect amount of stiffness and coverage over the window; it fits perfectly. Love the look of the shade, and we get a lot of compliments on the sun shade." —CkAlways

Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in lots of sizes).

Promising review: "As a parent, I’ve learned that you need a survival kit for trips to places like Disney, and this fan is now officially a part of mine. We were in the middle of a scorching hot day at Disney World; my kid was melting down (as kids tend to do when they’re 97% sweaty). Enter this little fan. First off, it’s battery-operated, so you don’t have to worry about hunting down a charger when you’re halfway across the park. And the rechargeable USB feature is a lifesaver. It clipped right onto the stroller, and suddenly, my child was as cool as a cucumber." —Quoleo

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in four colors).

Promising reviews: "I used to sweat and be so uncomfortable in my singing practice room. This fan was so helpful to keep me comfortable. The different speeds are great, and it's pretty powerful for such a small fan. Love the color and sleekness too. It saved my life." —Danielle

"One of my absolute must-haves as a chronically ill and nauseous girl. My fan seriously comes with me everywhere and is amazing for travel. I can even use it as a sleep fan if needed. Amazing for airplanes and train rides, amazing for walking through hot and crowded places, too. It’s quiet, super powerful with up to five speeds, cute and lightweight, and fits in small bags." —Haley

Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in two sizes and four colors).

Note: The person above is wearing the "Lifts" style.

Promising review: "I’ve tried so many nipple covers over the years, and these are just in a league of their own! They stick and don’t move (sweat, clothes, moisturizer, etc. — nothing budges them), but then they peel off so easily. It’s magic. They are completely seamless, and my husband (without prompting) said they looked like a second skin. I’ve got quite 'triangular' boobs, and they completely mold to the shape and look like I just have no nipples lol. Only when I’m suuuuuper cold does any level of nipple start to show through, and even then, it’s minimal. They’re more pricey than others I’ve bought before, but so worth it. The others were one-and-done — these have held up through multiple wears and are still in perfect condition. Will repurchase them as soon as they wear out, without a doubt! No more bras!" —Alison

Get a set from Amazon for $18.79+ (available in five shades and three sizes: one that fits cups A–C, one that fits cups D+, and one that fits cups DD+).

Promising review: "These little tags have been a game changer for my household. Everyone finally knows exactly where to put things, and the color-coded icons make it so easy that even my 7-year-old gets it right. My dishes are coming out noticeably cleaner, too, since nothing is blocking the spray arms anymore. The silicone quality is really impressive; after multiple cycles of daily washes, they haven’t faded, peeled, or lost their shape at all. They fit my Bosch perfectly and took less than 5 minutes to set up. Small purchase, but honestly one of the most useful things I’ve added to our kitchen routine!​​​​​​​​​​" —Santanu Patnaik

Get a set of 10 organizers from Amazon for $14.99.

Promising reviews: "FINALLY, COMFY PANTIES! As a 30-year-old woman, I’ve been on the search for comfy underwear, and I finally found it. They’re soft and have the perfect amount of stretch." —Amazon Customer

"So freaking comfy. I need my undies to cradle under my butt cheeks the way a loving mother tenderly cradles her newborn’s face. I was worried these would creep up the cheeks into wedgie territory, but no. Blissful cheek hugging all day long. Can’t feel them even if I try. No weird pinching or odd areas. Perfect chef’s kiss. I typically wear Aerie boy brief–style undies — these are a close match in fit and comfort, and equivocal in size." —Ali Morey

Get a set of five from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–3XL and 12 color combos).

Reviewers with cats say this works for them, too!

Promising reviews: "These work really well and are very easy to use. I like that they slide right onto your finger, which makes cleaning quick and convenient. Great price for the amount you get, and they do the job without any hassle. Will definitely purchase again." —Itsme

"It’s a game changer. You can get to the gunk and administer soothing stuff, too. Helped my cats." —Robinhelene

Vacation is a small business specializing in home fragrances and SPF products.

Promising review: "Super easy to carry and use. I apply this to my face after swimming. The product is firm; it doesn’t melt even in the hot sun. It is a chemical sunscreen, not physical, so it doesn’t have a white cast to it. I didn’t get burned. The whole collection of this brand has good products that smell great. It’s Leaping Bunny-certified since 2022, so we know that the ingredients and products are cruelty-free." —AJ Kale

BuzzFeed Shopping contributor Sam Wieder has this and loves it! Check out her Wet and Forget shower cleaner review!

Promising review: "I have well water. Something in my well water reacts with copper plumbing and turns my shower tiles blue. Since my bathroom color scheme isn't on the blue spectrum, this is problematic. The well water also causes the shower glass to film up quickly. I've tried dozens and dozens of cleaners and scrubbed ’til my arms ached, trying to get ahead of the blue and scumminess. My ambition in life is NOT to be a full-time bathroom scrubber! I saw this stuff on a professional house cleaner's TikTok (sorry, I don't remember which one) and thought, 'What the heck, might as well give it a try.' Oh my goodness, the first day after my shower, I sprayed this stuff all over and walked away. The next morning, there was a NOTICEABLE reduction in the blue, and the glass looked clearer, too. On day two, I sprayed again and walked away. The next morning, the blue was gone except for a few spots on the floor tile, and the glass looked amazing. On day three, I sprayed the remaining spots, and the next morning, the shower practically looked new. NO SCRUBBING AT ALL!!!! This is my new favorite shower cleaner. The ONLY con I have is that it makes me sneeze while spraying from inside the shower, but I can live with that." —L. J. Petillo

Get it from Amazon for $20.98+ (available in two sizes, two scents, and a pack of two).

Promising review: "Used for a business trip where I had to be dressed up for 12 hours in the heat for several days in a row. Even used these after getting off flights, needing to refresh before meetings. Made me feel fresh, almost showered, and the deodorizing smell was long-lasting and subtle. Definitely recommend!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "This is the best pill container I have found. It holds a month’s worth of pills in each compartment and is compact and easy to store and travel with. It is very sturdy, and I don’t have to worry about the cap opening accidentally. The enclosed labels are a bonus, and the see-through exterior makes it easy to see how many pills are left. I keep it on my nightstand, and it doesn’t take a lot of space." —TA

Get it from Amazon for $9.48+ (available in seven colors).

Promising review: "Wow. This works fast. As soon as I put it on, I could feel it working. I was surprised by how well it covers the sore. I thought, 'Is this thing magic?!' It stays put, too. I put it on last night and already feel so much better today, and it looks a lot better. This is important to have in stock just in case this comes out of the blue, which is what happened to me. I’m so thankful for the people who created this. This is the best product I’ve ever used. And I’ve used others with no effect. This is powerful stuff." —GG

Get a pack of 15 from Amazon for $12.97.

Megababe is a woman-owned small business founded by Katie Sturino, an entrepreneur, body acceptance advocate, and influencer. 

Promising review: "I was hesitant to buy this product because I wasn’t sure if it would work or not, but WOW!!!!! It works!!!! Amazing!! I’ve been to a music festival for the past two years, and from walking too much, I’ve gotten the worst chafing. This year, I decided to buy this and use it during my two days at the music festival. No chafing whatsoever!!! I did reapply a few times (because I was walking tons/sweating). But seriously, this product is wonderful. I tried deodorant last year, and that was no help for me. This is my new go-to, and I’m excited to use it more this summer! Buy this!" —Queen268

Get it from Amazon for $13.97, Megababe for $14, or Target for $13.99. 

BuzzFeed Shopping contributor Sam Wieder uses these all the time. Check out her Affresh dishwasher cleaner tablets review!

Promising review: "This pack of six tablets is a game changer, specially formulated to remove limescale and buildup, ensuring optimal performance. Using Affresh regularly has revitalized my dishwasher, leaving it looking and smelling brand new after each wash cycle. The convenience of the tablet format makes application a breeze — simply drop one in and let it work its cleaning magic. Say farewell to stubborn residues and hello to spotless dishes! Elevate your dishwasher maintenance with Affresh — a must-have for anyone seeking efficiency and cleanliness in every wash." —Ryan

Promising review: "As a long-time customer (and a proud owner of certain gastrointestinal issues), I can say that this toilet paper spray makes wet wipes obsolete. The scents are all great, though my personal favorites are the Rustic and the Coconut Amber. All it takes is 4–6 sprays onto the toilet paper to get the benefit of the product. Their dedication to the environment is apparent, and I, too, am proud of the amount of plastic packaging and nondegradable wipes I've kept out of the sewer and plumbing systems. I kept all previous travel-sized bottles and simply purchased their refill bottles for reuse." —Riggatony

Get it from Amazon for $8.95+ (available in three sizes and seven scents).

The water-resistant light comes with a replaceable lithium battery.

Promising review: "So glad I found these. I have one on my apartment key and another on my mailbox key. They really work well, especially in low lighting. Since my vision is no longer perfect, these lights save me time so I don’t have to fumble trying to get my key into the locks. I definitely recommend them. I have a spare for replacement, but they last a long time." —Marni

Promising review: "These shades work great. With a freshly cleaned window, they stick to the glass quickly, even in Arizona. They fold up easily and stay on indefinitely." —Brad

Get a four-pack from Amazon for $13.99 (also available in a pack of two).

Promising reviews: "This definitely takes away the shininess on face mid-day in summer weather." —SJJS

"I have super oily skin and am always looking for something to help control it during the day. The linen squares are good, but you have to keep them around (and keep replacing them), and they end up in the landfill. This little contraption really works, and I just rinse it at the end of the day and start over again the next. I kept one on my desk and bought a second for my purse. This is magic for my shiny skin, especially on camera in my hours of Zoom every day." —Jennifer Helseth

BuzzFeed Deputy Editorial Director Elizabeth Lilly has been putting this toothpaste to the test:

"I've been testing out the whitening version of this toothpaste, and it works just as well as any drugstore brand toothpaste without irritation. (I'll occasionally get irritation from whitening strips and treatments, and space them out because of it, but I've had none with this!) My mouth just FEELS cleaner when I use this, and it's even easier to use my tongue scraper after brushing, too! I think this has earned a spot as my new go-to."

Promising review: "TheraBreath Deep Clean is the best toothpaste I’ve tried! It keeps my breath fresh for hours, feels gentle on my gums, and leaves my mouth super clean. The mint flavor is refreshing without being too strong. Definitely recommend." —Maryna Ruzieva

Get a pack of two from Amazon for $12.55. 

I've been using this since my tragic allergic reaction to Listerine back in 2022...

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Amber Usher is also a fan. Check out her TheraBreath Oral Rinse review!

Promising review: "This mouthwash is the only one that actually works. Your mouth feels so clean, it has a pleasant taste, and, most importantly, your breath is perfect. Once you have tried this, you are NEVER going back to 'regular brands' again." —Awake and Alive

Get the pack of two from Amazon for $15.34.

Promising review: "This is one of my absolute favorite kitchen tools! This is right up there with my stand mixer. I save hours a week using this for dinner prep. I HATE cutting up veggies for dinner, and this makes it fast and fun! I can’t believe I didn’t buy one years ago. This is worth every penny. Easy to use, and I can just throw it in the dishwasher for cleanup. I’m obsessed. I will be buying these as gifts. This is an absolute must-have for everyone." —Reviewer

BuzzFeed Shopping contributor Sam Wieder has good things to say about this! Check out her Fullstar veggie chopper review.

Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in five sizes and four colors).

Promising review: "This bag is perfect for the beach! Easy to carry and easy to wipe off. The inside cloth insert is removable, which I really like. I've even used this as a regular handbag. I would definitely buy again." —Nate

Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in two colors).

Promising review: "I’ve used Color Catchers for many years, so I can wash darks and lights together. They save time and money. (I’ve given boxes to each of my children as they head off to college.) You can tell they work because you see the color they soak up. Recently, a new purple shirt took me by surprise and ran profusely. I had two color catchers in that load, and they both turned deep violet." —Go Steelers 

You'll also get two 8-inch extension straps and a 28-inch strap for creating a unique-to-you fit!

Promising review: "The cordless knee massager with heat provided excellent relief prior to my total knee replacement. Since my TKR, I’ve been enjoying the comfort of the massage feature as my knee heals from surgery. This product stays charged for a long time and is portable, so it can be used while traveling or working. My only regret is not finding this product sooner. It's great and works well." —Donna

Promising review: "I love WD-40 products and use them for everything. I spray on shovels to keep dirt or snow from sticking, spray around windows and thresholds to deter bugs, clean Sharpies off wood and walls, and, of course, stop squeaky doors. These small direct-point application pens are great. Keep one in the glove box, my kitchen 'junk' drawer, and in the house toolbox." —BBP623

Get a three-pack from Amazon for $12.49.

Promising review: "Wow! Bought this little steamer and am really impressed. I did one go on my brother's couch, and [there's a] difference. It could use one more go to get to the 'looking like brand new,' but this is amazing!!! When you watch the video in the product description, there is something oddly satisfying about watching the dirty water get suctioned in after spraying the surface you are cleaning, but I must admit I didn't believe it would work that well. Well, it does!! Just like advertised! I am so impressed. If you are considering this cleaner, get it; you will not be disappointed." —edina bajraktarevic

BuzzFeed Home and Garden editor Sally Elshorafa has this and loves it. Check out her Bissell Little Green Machine review!

Get it from Amazon for $129.99+ (also available in a Deluxe and Mini style).

Promising review: "I love the razors and the fact that the heads are interchangeable with my regular-size Flamingo razors. The case is compact, and the gel is awesome! It is a bit pricey compared to other products, but it was worth it." —Ma. O.

Promising review: "These are the only candles I burn. I have three dogs and a cat, and sometimes some stinky grandkids lol. Everyone comments on how fresh it smells." —Donna Woods

Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in two scents).

Promising review: "I wanted something that would clean my baby’s paws after our walks because I didn’t want germs or dirt coming into the house. It smells great, it works well, and I can see that the rubber part doesn’t bother my doggy! It’s super easy to use, and I use it to keep her paws clean and my house clean! 10/10, especially for the price point!" —Thia

Get it from Amazon for $6.24 (available in two- and six-packs).

Promising review: "Really happy with these. My housemate is a professional musician and likes the music in the house much louder than I do. Wearing these keeps us both happy, and it’s still easy to understand regular conversations. Bonus points because they are comfortable to wear and easy to remove. Most people don’t notice them, but if they do, they just comment on how cool-looking they are. Really nice design." —D Calvin

Get it from Amazon for $39.95 (available in six other colors).

Promising review: "I love this air purifier. As someone with chronic allergies and a hatred of dust, the automatic adjustment of this was exactly what I was looking for. It has a status indicator, a wonderful app that I’ve had no issues with, and — best of all — Alexa integration. Setup was easy, and even on the maximum power setting, it’s not too loud. If you keep it on auto as I do, you’ll never even hear this thing running." —Tucker Souder

Get it from Amazon for $159.99+ (available in black and white).

Shakalo is a small business based in San Diego.

Promising review: "We recently moved to a beach area, and we are constantly there. This item has changed our entire lives! It lasts decently long (depending on how much you use it), it smells super good (not at all like baby powder), and it's super effective. It has saved me from vacuuming my car at least 1–2 times a week. I even use it on my dog's paws and bellies to make sure they're taken care of, too. I will definitely be buying the refill and another bag to have exclusively in the car." —Gabbs Uresti

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in packs of three).

Promising review: "This is exactly what I was looking for in an affordable Apple laptop. Small, fast, and great for schoolwork and browsing the internet. It feels very well built, and I love the citrus yellow color." —michael

Get it from Amazon for $589.99+ (available in two GB sizes and four colors).

Promising review: "Smaller than expected, but that is what makes it perfect. Love this toolkit. It was ready to go right out of the box. It includes a variety of heads so you can find the perfect size. I highly recommend." —Teresa

Get it from Amazon for $27.53+ (available in three colors).

UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) is a measure of how much UV radiation reaches your skin through a fabric. UPF 50 means it's designed to block 98% of the sun's rays.

Promising review: "We overnighted this for our beach trip this weekend after reading a ton of reviews, and I’m so glad we did. Pros: It’s lightweight, no rusting, and sturdy even on a windy day (it’s the beach, of course, it’s windy). It was soooo easy to take down and pack up, and it has great coverage!! Cons: It took more time (lots of sand digging) to set up than a regular canopy. I watched the videos beforehand, and once we figured it out, it was very easy. We’ve been here for five-plus hours, and it hasn’t moved! Would definitely recommend! We’ve been through so many canopies in the past, and I’m hopeful this one will last a long while!" —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $54.94+ (available in three sizes and four colors).
