Promising review: "I bought this after seeing an ad on TikTok. I'm skeptical, but I’m a sucker for this kinda stuff, but it is genuinely amazing. I tested it on all the different areas of my body. It didn’t do a thing to my well-exfoliated palm, but my face, legs, LIPS… baby soft with big balls of dead skin coming off. Like one of those Korean exfoliating gloves, but you don’t have to scrub like you do with those. You just gently rub it in, and your dead skin peels away. I even had a weird callus on my arm that kept regrowing, and it smoothed it down so cleanly. This stuff is truly magic. Just WOW." —Nellie

Promising review: "The TikTok girlies did not lie. This is great. Smells divine without being too strong." —patricia bentham

"I’m obsessed with this lotion! It smells amazing, and the scent lingers beautifully on my skin all night. By the 24-hour mark, it’s faint but still there, and the hydration lasts the entire time. I’ve seen a lot of people compare it to EOS vanilla cashmere, but I personally love this one more because it’s much more moisturizing. Even though the fragrance isn’t as strong, I love the soft hint of vanilla and cocoa butter it leaves behind. It pairs perfectly with my gourmand perfumes and body sprays. Definitely my new go-to!" —Kxyxlli

Promising review: "I am a lotion user every single day. I use face moisturizers that I love. I am over the moon by how good this is. I mainly use it on my neck, hands, and forearms. The difference is amazing. My skin actually feels so good. I wish I could buy larger containers of it." —Kimberly P. 

Check out a TikTok of the nausea relief inhaler in action. 

Promising review: "Took this on my first cruise. Anytime that I started to feel woozy, I’d reach for it. I’m sure the required act of deep breathing helped a lot — and breathing in the fragrance of the essential oil is very calming and effective. Worked for me! Wonderful!" —Willy&Lilly

Get a pack of two from Amazon for $12.99 (also available in a pack of four). 

Promising review: "Very nice on the lips, as expected. I got the nude honey shade. I love it, it feels good on my lips and is the perfect amount of shine." —Roshaunda

Get it from Amazon for $25 (also available in Black Honey and Pink Honey). 

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 five colors). 

Promising review: "Welp, this stuff is amazing. I tend to avoid anything trendy or anything that 'goes viral' due to my stubborn nature, but when searching Amazon for a red reducing toner, this one just kept showing up, so I swallowed my pride. Social media did not betray us on this one, friends. I saw immediate results. My skin looked much calmer right after the first use, and it feels so smooth. The price is amazing, the bottle is fun, it has no scent (not necessarily a positive for me, but I know it's important to others), it feels good to put on, and looks good on the skin. I have a feeling that I will be repurchasing this toner, highly recommend." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "Tired of traditional 'cool' pillows that feel like a brick? Tired of soft pillows that wake you up in sweat? Look no more! I am a very hot-natured, hot-sleeping person. I can not sleep without a fan on high blowing on me. This pillow is legitimately cool and comfortable. Somehow soft but still supportive. Very, very happy with my purchase and the price!" —Robert

Get a set of two from Amazon for $39.99. 

Promising review: "This product delivers exactly as promised and is incredibly easy to use. I suffer from dry skin and often apply various products to soften my feet. With this, I simply spray it on and immediately massage it in with my hands. The dead skin comes off effortlessly. There's no waiting time, and it's gentle on the skin. It leaves my feet feeling exceptionally soft. This has quickly become my new favorite thing." —KimT

Promising review: "Wow, does this work amazingly! I discovered this from a TikTok video, and I am so pleased with how this works. It is literally like magic; my feet have never been this soft." —Brian

Promising review: "I saw on TikTok this Korean beauty influencer that I follow, and pretty much buy all her skincare products. This was one of the products that she actually used on one of her clients who had very large pores. It’s been a month, and my pores have shrunk, my face is so much clearer, and I know I’m gonna buy this product again." —jessica aquino lopez

Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (also available in a vitamin illuminating serum). 

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 

Promising review: "I used this product years ago and had the most amazing skin, but I assumed it was mostly genetics. Now that my skin is showing signs of aging, I decided to give it another try — and I’m so glad I did. My skin is transforming daily. They say your skin can rebuild itself, and it really does — especially when you remove the buildup of dead skin cells. I’ve been using it morning and night, and I genuinely look younger. My skin feels polished, my pores are noticeably smaller, and I need much less makeup. Such a fantastic product — highly recommend!" —Sweet Caroline 

Promising review: "Love these! They smell great but aren’t overpowering. Help with my deviated septum and work just as great as the extra strength tan ones. The lavender is usually my go-to, but this is a new favorite when I want a scented option." —Sara Mastapasco 

Get a pack of 26 from Amazon for $11.29. 

Sagely is a family-owned small business founded by husband-and-wife team Ellie Glazer and Ivor Miskulin, who spent three years designing the ideal, stress-free pill storage solution. The silicone lids are super secure but also designed for gentle and easy opening and closing to account for users with dexterity issues.

Promising review: "Love this thing!!! The little slots to push in pills are fantastic, and the containers are very large. It keeps my huge vitamin pills on either side and could fit over 10 large ones if needed. Love this thing. Worth the price, and it looks like it'll last forever. I do wish the magnets were stronger. They just keep them in place, but they will slide off if bumped. I assume this is helpful for people with arthritis. It's an easy fix. I take down one day's worth of pills, set it on my counter, and now I'm not too lazy to take my pills!" —Chicken McNugget

Get it from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in four colors). 

The smell is truly divine on this: Yes, really. Citrusy with a touch of floral, it not only does the job (and does it well!) but it *also* looks lovely and elevated sitting on the back of the toilet or on the bathroom counter. Can't rec this one enough!

Promising review: "Modern long-sleeve tee. It could also act like a thin sweatshirt, too! Fit just like expected. So comfortable and soft. Not too baggy, just right. True to size. Looks nice on. Great with jeans or leggings. Highly recommend." —Laurel824 

Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in women's sizes 3XS–4XL and 37 styles). 

Check out a TikTok of the Prepara Salad Pod in action. 

Promising review: "An awesome invention. I take salads daily to work, and it’s so convenient. Also the dressing at the top makes mixing salad so easy." —Adrienne Williams 

Get it from Amazon for $22.97+ (available in two colors and other sizes/styles).  

Promising review: "I have been looking for an azelaic acid product that works for my skin because I heard it does wonders for redness. Well, this product was the answer to my prayers. Holy grail. Will never allow myself to run out. It is light on the skin and easy to layer other products on top without feeling heavy. It has minimized my facial redness from acne marks and rosacea irritation. While also hydrating my skin instead of irritating it further." —Kimberly B. 

Dae is a small business that specializes in haircare and styling products. 

Check out a TikTok of the taming wand in action. 

(It goes without saying that you don't need to lay your edges if you don't want to, but this is a handy option if you do.) 

Promising review: "I’ve tried numerous products for taming baby hairs, especially post-partum, and this is hands down the best thing I’ve tried. It also smells incredible! Love the size of the styling wand!" —Completely happy customer! 

"LOVE!!! It doesn't make hair greasy, it gets rid of my super frizzy hair, and smooths it down. Easily applied and the applicator is super functional. I love and will definitely buy again for the price! Super good look to it." —Devon Reid

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. 

My colleague Emma Lord says: 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 I 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 different sizes).

The color-adaptive formula is designed so that one of four shades will work on any skin tone. 

Promising review: "Took years off my eyes! This product is so reasonably priced. I came across a TikTok promoting this and decided to take a chance since the price was super reasonable. My eyes looked brighter in a good way, and the concealer worked so well that I felt I looked younger. I got compliments from friends asking what I did differently with my makeup. I recommend it." —Monica T. 

Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in four shades). 

Promising review: "I am so impressed with this! It’s incredibly spacious without being bulky, and the foldable design makes it super convenient for storage when not in use. The material feels durable and high quality — definitely tear-resistant and water-repellent, just as advertised. The zippers are smooth, and the handles and shoulder strap are both sturdy and comfortable to carry. This bag has quickly become my go-to for weekend getaways, gym sessions, and even as an emergency carry-on. Amazing value for the price. Highly recommend!" —Stacy Floyd 

Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in 12 colors). 

Check out a TikTok of the Airplane Pockets tray table cover in action. 

Airplane Pockets is a small business that specializes in sanitary, portable travel organization products. 

My colleague Emma Lord says: I used this on a round-trip from NYC to Tokyo, both with connecting flights in Canada, and cannot sing its praises enough. It fit all four of the different tray tables I used it on and was so ridiculously handy for keeping track of all my littler odds and ends like AirPods, the plane's headphones, earplugs, a sleep mask, a book, gum, a scrunchie, and little snacks. The hanging end of it easily tucked into the built-in sleeve of the seat in front of me for takeoff and when other passengers needed to scoot past me in my aisle seat. Usually, I feel like a hot mess and get frustrated rooting around in the grimy sleeve for my stuff, and this was such a refreshing solution! Several flight attendants even asked where I got it to buy one for themselves! 

Learn more about different kinds of eye drops and what they can do at Cleveland Clinic. Note that eye drops can potentially mask symptoms of eye conditions, so you should talk to your eye doctor about what's right for you. And according to Mayo Clinic, you should avoid redness-reducing drops if you're looking for dry eye relief.

Check out a TikTok of the eye drops in action. 

Promising review: "I have a big spot of blood vessels in the inner corner of my left eye. I use the expensive lubricant eye drops for moisture — I've used Visine, Clear Eyes, you name it. No eye drop has made my eyes look this great. Only Lumify! I was soo happy when I looked in the mirror and saw some beauty in my eyes instead of darkness and redness." —Angela Leonard

Turbo Mops is a small business that specializes in eco-friendly cleaning products. 

Promising review: "If you have a Swiffer Wet Jet and are tired of having to buy those mop pads, I would 10000x recommend these. All you do is stick it to the bottom of your mop like you would a mop pad and mop like normal. It stays on great and even picks up crumbs better than the store-bought mop pads. Once you’re done, you just throw it in the wash and it’s good as new. I’m not sure if you’re supposed to dry them, but I do, and they come out just fine! I love these!!" —Kate

Psst — if you don't already have one, you can get a standard Swiffer on Amazon for $19.14. 

Promising review: "I have tiles that the builder put down. As you can imagine, they are not the best quality and feel porous. Everything shows on the floor, but this cleaner truly makes a difference. It goes deep into the tile and grout and leaves it super clean without much effort. Truly effective. The floor looks super clean and shiny after using it. It comes well packed, so no leakage. Best floor cleaner in my opinion. A little goes a long way." —Michelle O 

Get a set of two from Amazon for $14.99. 

Promising review: "This is elite salt. Fancy without being pretentious. The flakes are perfect for finishing, adding that satisfying little crunch and flavor pop to everything from steaks to chocolate chip cookies and buttered sourdough toast. Yes, toast. Trust me. The tub is massive and resealable, which keeps it fresh and easy to use. If you’re into flavor, this is the salt upgrade your pantry didn’t know it needed." —Alyn Reads

Promising review: "Perfect fall color. Love Glamnetic nails. The Magnetic Moscow set is so far the most complimented. Short oval is the best length for me. I have small hands and work in healthcare." —Mary Voronoff 

Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in 49 other styles). 

Promising review: "This mud mask is a game-changer! This creamy mud formula goes on smoothly and dries quickly, drawing out stubborn blackheads and excess oil without irritating my skin. After rinsing, my pores feel noticeably tighter and my complexion looks smoother. It’s gentle yet effective — perfect for a weekly deep cleanse. A must-have for clear, refreshed skin!" —Adore._jayyy 

Hanni is a small business that specializes in personal care products. 

Promising review: "Love love love! Holy grail shower product. This saves me money on soap because the lather it produces takes just a couple of pumps for my whole body. The exfoliation is epic, and I can finally reach my entire back. Also, it dries very quickly and is such a cute pattern! I will definitely be purchasing them as gifts." —Tirza Sosah

Promising review: "I have the worst habit of losing my remotes in my bed. But these have been a lifesaver, and I love that these free up space from my nightstand too! They have a super strong adhesive that works with any surface! I have a textured wall, and these have no problem staying put regardless of the size or bulkiness of the remotes!" —Brandice Moore

Get a four-pack from Amazon for $9.66+ (available in four styles and a six-pack). 

Promising review: "The serum is lightweight, absorbs fast, and has no strong scent. After about three weeks, those stubborn dark spots are visibly lighter, and my overall skin tone is brighter and more even. My texture feels smoother, and my skin is happily hydrated. The 5% tranexamic acid really seems to make a difference for fading spots, and it's been gentle on my sensitive skin. If you want a serum that brightens, evens tone, and tackles blemishes without feeling heavy, this is it. It's a new favorite!" —Amazon Customer
