Promising review: "After checking out all the reviews and seeing some of my fave YouTube and TikTok makeup gurus rave about these, I decided to try. I'm not an everyday eyelash wearer, just special occasions normally. These magnetic eyelashes are a game changer. I felt like they were easier to apply than regular glue and lashes. I've worn them way more often just because they are so much easier to apply over regular lashes. The weight is the same as normal false lashes. The liner/adhesive is easy to apply and it is the perfect consistency, gives you crisp lines without a lot of work for your liner look, and sticks really well. The price and the product cannot be beat!" —Morgan Bean Get a set of five from Amazon for $14.99. This includes the scrubber tool and two refills. Promising review: "I love this thing! The handle makes it so much easier to wash the walls in my shower. No more grinding my knuckles against the shower wall as I'm cleaning it. Just a handle and an easy glide. They are thick and sturdy and the normal size of a Magic Eraser. I was hoping they would be thicker, but I'm okay with it. I'm definitely a fan and will buy it again!" —Dawne Get it from Amazon for $12.94+ (also available in other pack amounts). The body of these are 95% cotton and 5% spandex, with a 100% cotton gusset. Promising review: "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 tried. 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 six from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–3XL and nine color combos). Promising review: "I usually buy packaged salads, but the packages are small and expensive. I decided that I wanted to use romaine hearts instead, but dreaded the rinsing and drying of the lettuce leaves. This salad spinner is very large, so I can usually put two hearts in at a time. Just close and press the button down a few times. I drain the water and do it another time. From there, I can put the salad in my container. A definite time saver, in addition to not having to use endless paper towels to do the same job. Very time-saving. Well constructed and worth every penny." —Hermione Grainger Get it from Amazon for $23.96+ (available in two sizes). 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, were 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 horrible calloused feet for years, PLEASE BUY THIS!" —jess Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in three scents, as a two-pack, and in a kit with a foot file and gloves). Promising review: "In just a little over a month, my feet have had SUCH a transformation that I haven’t seen in over 10 years 😭 I’m only 30, but I’ve had problems with my feet since I was a teen. I’ve always been so insecure about them for obvious reasons. My feet literally shredded sheets! I’ve tried so many products, I’ve lost count! None of them did anything. Wasted time, money, and hope! But this product—it’s given me my feet back!! 😭 I don’t have to wear socks EVERYWHERE anymore! I will never buy another product!! My favorite part is that I don’t have to put nasty creams on my hands to rub into my feet anymore." —Amber Reynolds Get it from Amazon for $7.29 (also available as a pack of three and 12). Read more about constipation relief at home, including using a squatting position, at Cleveland Clinic. And if you want to fall further down the research rabbit hole, check out our Squatty Potty review! Promising review: "You need a Squatty Potty. Let me rephrase that, you and the rest of the world NEEDS a Squatty Potty. Because let’s face it, who wants to be hunched over a toilet for 30 minutes to an hour, staring into their phone or reading miscellaneous shampoo bottles while waiting for their butt load to finally drop? NOT I, POPEYE. Not I. That’s why I changed my life by getting a Squatty Potty almost three years ago. Why am I writing a review now one might ask? Because dear reader, I’ve been too busy living life outside of the bathroom walls! Pooping takes no time at all now! Let’s face it, our ancestors had been squatting for eons. So what are we doing sitting all high and mighty on a porcelain throne with our legs dangling? We are designed to squat for optimal elimination. No this isn’t some gag product, or something you should skip out on. This is literally the best way to poop. I can really tell the difference when I’m not using one, and it’s not pleasant. You owe it to yourself to have the best poops of your life. SO TREAT YO SELF to this Squatty Potty. Step your 💩 game up!" —LesLeaLuvShopping Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in two sizes and a two-pack). Promising reviews: "LOVE THIS! I hate cleaning my bathroom and using so many chemicals that never seem to work. I saw this product and decided to try it, and WOW, it was so easy to use and worked like magic on my glass shower, shower tiles, and sink/faucet. Picture 1: Before cleaning Picture 2: After cleaning glass before cleaning tile floor Picture 3: After Cleaning glass and tile floor. This is definitely a must-buy product!!!!" —Laura "Wow. Don’t waste your time with any other formulation that you found online. I’ve literally tried EVERYTHING! The soap/vinegar/baking soda, the expensive store-bought 'hard water cleaners.' I’ve scrubbed for HOURS! But this…. This product is like magic. It’s kind of like a paste that you can rub on with a microfiber towel, and the hard water stains literally just RUB OFF. Like butter! Seriously, the easiest option I have tried yet. I stopped within the first five minutes of cleaning to do this review because I was in shock. Coming from someone who never writes reviews! Take that as a sign to buy this immediately. What a game changer, I’m mad I’m just now finding this stuff lol!" —_kayla_carter Get it from Amazon for $16.29+ (available in three sizes). This has two bottle holders, two deep-cushioned compartments, two zipper and open pockets, an easily accessible pen pouch, a phone-sized drawstring, and hook-and-loop pockets. Promising review: "I got this bag to help me work in my car and to hold everything I need for business. First, I love the pockets. There are almost too many, but that means it has enough! I have used this for a few months for business and personal use. I have carried both lighter and heavier loads to the class I teach, with many books in it. It works very well for every occasion I have used it for. I absolutely recommend this bag if you work in your car... this is an amazing alternative to a traditional backpack or briefcase. It is a great crossover for the two." —Faith Promising review: "So I decided to put these to the ultimate test for 4th of July underneath my white, semi-sheer swimsuit. I wore them out in the Florida heat in the ocean all day, and they did not budge or peel off. I thought for sure these would take skin off by the time I got home because I just couldn't believe they stayed on the entire day (humidity is real). I was able to remove them with ease. I washed them with warm water and soap and let them dry, and the next day, they were super sticky, like they were brand-new out of the package again. Buying these forever." —Marisa Get it from Amazon for $26.50+ (available in three sizes, five colors, and two styles). BuzzFeed editor Natalie Brown swears by these pasties! Check out her Nippies review to learn more. Note that the AAD recommends using at least SPF 30 and reapplying as needed for skin protection. You can read about sunscreen myths and facts from dermatologists for more information! Promising review: "As an avid Asian beauty user, I've used a lot of different Korean and Japanese sunscreens. I bought this on a whim for my trip to Italy, not expecting much. I've seen it advertised a lot on a bunch of TikTok videos and on BuzzFeed and figured it was overhyped. But oh my gosh, this thing is legit. Like freaking legit. It glides on really smoothly, the product's curve makes it really easy to apply, and it dries matte. It leaves no cast (on pale and tan skin) and also feels like nothing is there after a couple of minutes. It saved my boyfriend and I from the unmerciful Italian sun at peak summer. We ended up going through the entire stick by the end of our one-week trip just because of how often we were applying it. I honestly might switch from my HG sunscreen to this just because I love it so much! 100% recommend." —Hannah Get it from Amazon for $16.36 (available in a Glowing style and a two-pack). Reviewers recommend using a thinner sunscreen; if your preferred sunscreen is quite thick, this may not work for you. And JSYK, the American Academy of Dermatology Association (AAD) says most adults need about an ounce (the size of a shot glass) of sunscreen to adequately cover their face and body — and that's exactly what this holds! Promising review: "If you have a kid (kids) and you need to put on sunscreen on him/her (them) daily (we live in Hawaii), please do yourself a favor and get these!!! It is less of a mess for you and your kid(s); the application is easy, and it takes about 20 seconds to do both arms!! Like magic, totally life-changing for our family!!" —Alexander Gonzalez Get it from Amazon for $15.98 (available in 13 colors). These lights are charged via USB-C cables (included!) and can also be set to always-on for longer tasks. After motion is detected and the lights are activated, they'll automatically turn off after 20 seconds without motion. The lights are magnetic and can easily attach to magnetic surfaces OR you can use the included adhesive iron plates for installation in other areas. Promising review: "These lights are very cool. They feel and look well-made. First, I charged them. Then cleaned under the cabinet with a good degreaser and then stuck them on. They attach with magnets. They come off easily for recharging. Also, I LOVE that you can set them to automatic on (when you get close), full on, or off. I chose the soft white, and they really are perfect. I will be buying more!" —Janis Tomasone Get a set of two from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in two sizes and two light temperatures). BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes says: "It takes a bit of practice to get the hang of using this roller — at first, I thought you only brushed down in one direction, and was confused why it wasn't picking up hair. It's important to do a push-and-pull brushing in *both* directions so it actually pulls the hair inside, which does require you to apply a bit of pressure. Afterward, you'll just dump out the hair that's been trapped inside. The ChomChom is best for large flat surfaces like couches and beds." Promising review: "If I could give this product 6 stars, I would. My husband and I use it almost every day. We have three furry dogs and six fluffy cats, which makes for A LOT of hair. We were using a lint roller before we bought our ChomChom Roller. The lint roller didn't work very well and had to be replaced. We have had our ChomChom Roller for months and it still works just as well as it did when we first got it. We can actually invite our friends over now without worrying about all the pet hair." —Morgan Willis Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in three styles and a mini version). Promising review: "I hadn't cleaned my oven in... well, ever. It's been *at least* eight years since it was cleaned. Mounds of baked-on black plague, a window on the door that hadn't been transparent probably since it came out of the box by the original owners, and nary a base surface to be seen anywhere. I sprayed about half the can and let it sit for about 16 hours. When I went to see how well it did or didn't work, I was floored. The mounds of filth and gunk came up like layers of mud. A quarter roll of paper towels and 15 minutes later and the entire interior of the oven was 90% clean. No elbow grease needed. The glass window seemed like it was going to be a bit problematic, as paper towels weren't really doing the trick. Then I realized I had a wide-handled razor blade and everything came up with one swipe. The glass looks brand new! Seriously beyond impressed with whatever black magic was used in this formula, but I'll never have a filthy oven again with how easy it is to clean with this stuff." —Kyle Vick This has a 1,200-watt motor, three blending programs (smoothie, ice crush, and blend), and auto iQ presets that'll blend for you. And btw, you can drink from the integrated spout, or there's a straw included if you prefer. Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE this blender. I use it to make smoothies and they come out AWESOME. I had a smaller portable Ninja blender that was ok, but it would get jammed a lot with frozen products, so I decided to upgrade to this one, and I am so glad I did. This blender is a beast. It blends everything up perfectly. Frozen fruit is no problem at all. I love how it has suction cups on the bottom so that it grips the counter. It’s pretty loud, but since this blender works so well, I can handle the noise. I highly recommend this." —Unicornyankee Get it from Amazon for $109.98+ (available in five colors). Check out a TikTok of the Ninja Crispi Air Fryer System in action. Each air fryer comes with the "PowerPod," two containers (a 4-quart and a 6-quart), and lids. The PowerPod has auto-shutoff and the "feet" are heat-safe, so you can prop it on any surface without worrying! Promising review: "I got my Ninja Crisper today and reheated some stuffed bread with feta cheese and spinach, and it did a wonderful job. It was like it just came out of the oven the first time. Nice and crispy outside, but the inside heated just right. I love that the bottom glass can be covered with the lid it comes with. They come with a metal plate you can put in the glass bottom part, and it actually fits into the lid, so it doesn't get lost. The glass makes a difference in the taste, too. It is a great product and well worth it." —Jennifer Get it from Amazon for $158.99+ (available in nine colors). Check out a TikTok of the laundry spray in action. Puracy is a Texas-based, family-owned business specializing in plant-based, chemical-free, hypoallergenic home products, with a donation made to local families in need with a portion of every purchase. BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord can vouch for this: "Psst — this spray also does a number on all those other miscellaneous stains in your life, like wine, coffee, soy sauce, makeup, and period blood! I recently bought this to test it for myself, and can attest to how well it works to get period blood out even after you've tried something else. I stained a pair of beloved bright-blue bike shorts in my sleep and tried to get it out with soap and water, but the stain was still there when it came out of the wash. I treated it with this, stuck it back in the wash, and BOOM, it's like it never happened (I panicked before I could get a before and after, please forgive me, laundry gods)." Get it from Amazon for $6.98+ (available in two sizes, as a two-pack, as a refill, as a pen, and an instant or baby formula). Check out a TikTok of a dermatologist explaining the different ways this can be used! Promising review: "My sisters were constantly raving about this toner, so I decided to try it. Since using it, I’ve realized why they love it so much! My skin went from bumpy and textured to smooth and glowy. My clogged pores have completely disappeared. I’ve already recommended this product to a bunch of my friends, and they love it too! I’ve been using this product for about two months, and it’s still doing wonders. Definitely worth buying!" —Noa May Get it from Amazon for $9+ (available in two sizes and as a pack of two). BTW — These are a great swap for the Scrub Daddy Damp Duster, which is pretty much *always* sold out. BuzzFeed Shopping editor Maitland Quitmeyer can vouch for these: "I bought a pack of these recently, and so far love dusting with them! All the dust sticks right on, so you don't end up breathing in all the dust you just tried removing. It's great for baseboards, too!" Promising review: "I rarely review products, but this little sponge literally changed my life! It picks up EVERYthing in one swipe! Hard water marks on your bathroom mirror, no problem! Hair clippings on your sink and counter, one swipe and they are gone! Dusty blinds? Swoosh, swoosh, swipe! And ala-presto ka-bam, like magic, they are perfect and dust-free! I just need one of these for my floors! I love, love, love how the sponge picks up everything, and with a little running water, all the dust, hair, muck, and guck just rinsed away! This will not disappoint! Thank you!" —DayDreamer Get a pack of four from Amazon for $9.99 (available in five color combos and packs of two and eight). For best results, the brand recommends stretching your skin with one hand, laying the blade flat, and then shaving against the grain. It's also great for underarm hair, and even includes a 3-mm body comb attachment. 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 It comes with a spatula for removing the cream. Just be sure to test a small area of your skin and make sure there are no adverse reactions for 24 hours. Promising reviews: "What sorcery is this?? It’s magic in a pretty bottle. Beyond amazed that it works, honestly. I remember trying Nair back in high school, but it didn’t work so well and smelled icky. So I was already skeptical. I hadn’t shaved my legs for more than two months. Decided to give this a shot because I loathe shaving and I’m lazy. Tried it on one leg first while watching a chick flick and snacking on cheese and crackers, and six minutes later…holy buckets!! All the hair just wiped right off. How in the hell…it was all gone. Could not wait to do the second leg to witness the magic again. Fun hair removal? Yup! Smoother than I’ve ever been. Absolutely pain-free. Waxing can also suck it. It’s day three and still smooth!" —AMR "I have been looking for a good hair removal for my sensitive skin, and this one is perfect. It has a great odor and leaves my skin feeling smooth and silky. It does not burn my skin at all, even when I leave it on for 15 minutes or more. This is definitely my new hair removal cream. I will recommend this one to everyone." —Crystal Get it from Amazon for $10.42 (also available in a two-pack). Promising review: "Not just hype!! Saw this product a bunch on TikTok, and I feel like you never actually know how legit those are. But I thought, screw it, I’ll try it. Idk what kind of magic they put in this bottle, but I had nearly instant results. After just one application, the next morning, things are SO much smoother and less irritated!!!" —bookreader Here's what BuzzFeeder Maitland Quitmeyer has to say about it: "I bought this for my white porcelain kitchen sink and I've since texted five people about it, which is really a lot for such a boring grown-up product. It cleans beautifully, but the *best* thing about it is its ability to repel stains after cleaning. You know that thing when you rinse out your coffee cup and the coffee water just lingers in your sink, and you have to purposefully rinse it out for two minutes? You don't have to do that — the coffee can't stick to the sink and just goes RIGHT down the drain. Time saved, sink clean — this is really a Virgo dream product right here." Promising review: "I am not sure what the secret sauce is, but I do know it is magical. My secondary stainless sink in my laundry area is a workhorse. Everything gets washed in it... animal stuff, plant stuff, human stuff, DIY stuff ... everything that is not for the kitchen sink. Hope's polish took a dingy-looking 25-year-old stainless sink and made it look brand new. Not only that, but it's water repellent and [has a glass-like finish that], it is so shiny and stunning. Fantastic product, great price, and easy to use. I will always have it in my cleaning supply." —RACLabma Get it from Amazon for $9.95+ (available in two sizes, larger packs, and in a kit with cleaning pads). Btw— Hope's also makes a countertop cleaner and polish! SweatBlock is a small business that specializes in antiperspirant products. Psst — you should definitely "patch test" this on a small area of skin before putting it on to ensure you don't have any reaction. And btw, each box lasts two months! Promising review: "What is this sorcery? I've only used this product for two weeks, but I love it so far! I am an excessive sweater and ruin all my light colored shirts. This stuff keeps me dry during inactivity and reduces the sheer amount of sweat when I get hot or work out. I haven't had ANY sweat stains on my shirts (not when working out) since starting this product. It worked immediately (well, the next day with nighttime application). I can't wait to tell all my sweaty friends." —Hil Get a 10-count box from Amazon for $19.97 (also available in packs of two or three boxes). And because the device uses no chemicals or pesticides, it's kid and pet friendly. 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 device and two glue cards from Amazon for $10.59 (also available in larger packs, another style, and refills alone). Jerome Alexander is a small business that specializes in airbrush cosmetic products. BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord uses this: "HELLO — I found this through a recommendation on a Reddit beauty forum for people in their thirties, and I am OBSESSED. I am not very skilled with makeup and was intimidated by the brush factor, but it's nearly foolproof. This foundation straight-up glosses over my pores and redness and makes my skin look so even-toned and natural that it doesn't look like I used much foundation at all. It's a bit price-y compared to brands I used in the past, but I'm still on my first bottle of it, and it's been three full months. I hope this never stops getting made. It is so lightweight and lovely and has made my makeup routine feel like a TREAT." Promising review: "Bought this because I saw it on TikTok, and it did not disappoint. I love the lightweight feel of it and how easy it is to build." —Smickens Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (available in 12 shades). The 8-in-1 chopper includes a medium and fine dicer, a regular and coarse grater, a slicer, a zester, a blade to make wavy slices, and a blade to julienne. Promising review: "I hate cooking so much. Chopping is a pain and takes too long. My eyes water when cutting onions. This product has made my life so much easier. I don’t dread cooking. It takes mere moments and zero tears to chop an entire onion. A pile of potatoes? Chopped in minutes. Meal prep time is considerably shorter! So easy to clean too — just give a good rinse, use the tools to take anything off that’s stuck, and pop those babies into the dishwasher to use tomorrow and the next day and the next day…" —Kayla Get it from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in five styles and in four colors). Promising review: "Love this broom/mop holder. So nice to save space and stay organized. Holds them so firm and flat to wall. Also has hooks that fold out as needed. I recommend this to anyone looking for space-saving storage!" —Jaclyn Get it from Amazon for $17.97 (available in four colors, in packs of two, and with or without an extra broom holder). Basic Vigor is a US-based small business specializing in all-natural migraine relief products. Read more about aromatherapy and stress and tension at Johns Hopkins. Promising review: "I’ve had migraines all my life — I’m 31 now. I’ve been on all kinds of prescriptions that work, but make me so sleepy... I’ve been using this stick for one week now, and it’s amazing! I rubbed it on at the first hint of a headache/migraine, and it takes care of it fast. I haven’t taken a prescription migraine since I started using it." —Amanda Braswell Read BuzzFeed's review of the migraine stick for more deets! Get a pack of three from Amazon for $29.99. Promising review: "I wore these in Greece in August and they saved my life!! It was so so hot and I wore these everyday under my dresses and skirts. They honestly were cooling and kept my thighs comfortable as we walked a ton. A bonus, they didn't smell after repeated wears. Highly recommend!!" —J Get it from Thigh Society for $39 (available in women's sizes XS/S–5XL/6XL, six inseams, and 11 colors). It's available in three sizes: Pan Fry (which comes with four packets, each capable of solidifying two cups of oil), Deep Fry (which comes with two packets, each capable of solidifying 8 cups of oil), and Super Fry (which comes in a bag you can scoop for any size need). FryAway is a woman-owned and Latina-owned small business, and they donate 1% of revenue to nonprofits focused on water conservation. Promising review: "Have to admit I was a bit skeptical about how this would work — but talk about magic! Very easy to use (follow the instructions and give it the required time to solidify), and you will become a believer as I did. It performs as described and makes oil cleanup a breeze. If you hate cleaning up used frying oil don't hesitate to give this product a try. I will be purchasing again. Well worth the price for the time saved and mess avoided!" —Book Maven Get it from Amazon for $9.97 (available in three sizes and packs of three and 10). Promising review: “I started getting white streaks all over my dishes; that never happened before. I thought it was my detergent and changed it, but no difference. Clean dishes with this weird white film on them. I'd wash them by hand, then put them back in the dishwasher, and white film again! Then I did an internet search to figure out what was going on (a dishwasher is an incredibly simple piece of machinery) and found this! Bought it. Used it. My dishes are clean again!” —Carey Holzman Get a pack of six from Amazon for $9.19 (also available as a pack of 12 and 36; each tablet lasts a month). Check out a TikTok of the rectangular lazy Susan in action. Promising review: "Wow! I love this turntable organizer! I can fit so many items on it, and because of that, I now have so much more space on the door shelves. With this organizer, I will have easy access to all of those extra items that just don't have their own space. Now they do have a place to go! I would highly recommend this product to everyone who wants to feel more organized and doesn't want to lose items in their fridge." —Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in two sizes and as a two-pack) And if you're ready to go all-in on a fridge transformation, here's a genius pull-out organizer and a few clear bins to get you started! (Both with very satisfying reviewer pics — you're welcome). They're also large, thick, and durable! Promising review: "This stuff really is magical! When we moved into our house, the previous owners did a horrible job of cleaning the stainless-steel appliances. There were permanent run marks going down the front that I could not remove....and I tried EVERYTHING. I should note that I’m not actually positive that these appliances are true stainless steel or just manufactured to look like that. I wanted to cry tears of joy after wiping down the dishwasher because I had been looking at those awful run marks for three years, and they were finally gone! The whole tub is worth it for that appliance alone." —MayBae Get a pack of 90 from Amazon for $14.39.
