No buyer’s remorse here — just pure joy once you taste this apple cider finishing sugar. 😋

I’m a resident writer on the BuzzFeed Shopping team covering a variety of topics in a fun and mindful way, including travel, home, beauty, gift guides, and anything that’ll add just a bit of whimsy into people’s lives.

Promising review: "I am super picky about my lip products, and I am also a vanilla girly through and through! EVERY flavor in this pack is amazing, and they work miracles for my constantly chapped lips! And bonus: STICKERS!!! Definitely recommend to all my other vanilla girls out there!" —Alyssa D. 

Get a set of four from Amazon for $11.50 (available in six other flavors/styles). 

(Psst — Eos' viral "Marshmallow Fluff" lip treatment that reviewers compare to Laneige and Carmex is also available for $5.99)! 

Promising reviews: "As a petite woman with a larger bust, well-fitted and comfortable bras are hard to come by. This one is so comfortable and cute and I really like the way the clasps are sort of magnetic. It makes it easier to find the right hook while uncomfortably reaching your arms completely behind your back, lol." —Amber Way

"Life changing for 32DDD. It is SO good that I will never buy another bra again. First bra I have ever put on my body that I don’t fall out of when I touch my toes or do side-stretch-type moves. Finally, a bra that is COMFORTABLE and actually does what a bra is supposed to do. No double boob action or pouring over. 10 stars." —D. Leslie

Get it from Amazon for $14.44+ (available in women's sizes S–3XL, 17 colors, and in a two-pack).

This is great for a bit of low-effort weekly maintenance, but if your shower is in need of a ~deep clean~, you can use this a few times in a row to get it all washed up before starting that once-a-week schedule. 

Promising review: "SO impressed with this product! Nothing was getting this buildup off the tub, and then I tried this upon recommendation. I am blown away by the results and how easy it is to use. No scrubbing, just spray, rinse after 24 hours, and go! Definitely will be buying this for the rest of my life. Also has a very nice light smell!" —Casey 

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two scents, two sizes, and as a two-pack). 

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

Promising review: "I purchased the Golden Toffee color on a complete whim, as I had never heard of this brand before. Didn't expect much since other color correctors in the past did literally nothing for me except frustrate me further. When I tell you how I almost fell out of my vanity chair when applying this the first time. I feel like my life has instantly changed for the better. It's so perfect for me and my severe dark eye circles that I'm able to use just a little bit of the color corrector ALONE on no makeup days and just go outside to run quick errands! Great coverage, great texture and blendability. Talk about a complete game changer for me. I love you, Catrice. Please don't ever stop making this product. AND THE PRICE???? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? <3" —JennyWHOA

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

If you somehow breeze your way through the first edition, there are two more you can check out!

Promising review: "Great quality book. Thick pages with beautiful color. Engaging problems to solve (and so many of them!!!). I am almost halfway through the puzzle book within my first week of having it, and I came back to Amazon to see if there were other volumes available for purchase. I will be buying all future volumes. Great fun!" —Daniel

And you can get all that without forking over the $58 you would for Skims. 👀 

Promising reviews: "Best shirt for everyday casual, pair with a blazer, or use for a workout. I love the soft feel and being form-fitting without feeling restrictive. It also doesn’t wrinkle easily, which makes it great for travel!" —Mermaid Mamma

"I have two shirts from Skims' Soft Smoothing collection and I would say these are directly comparable, if not better, especially in terms of the stitching/seams around the neckline and shoulders. The fit is still very snug like the Skims, but doesn’t constantly rise, whereas with the Skims, I’m having to pull it down every five minutes. Also, being that the Skims one is $54, this is 100% a better deal. I bought the beige color in addition to this one, and they are both great." —Ocean

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in women's sizes 3XS–4XL and 34 colors). 

Promising review: "You want to romanticize your day? Sprinkle this crunchy goodness on your whipped cream-topped iced coffee or hot cocoa! It shakes easily out of the little container or dump it into your favorite kitchen trinket dish! My son even sprinkles a bit on his oatmeal! I love adding little extras to my routine during the holidays for a special treat. This is perfect!" —Meredith Snedeker

Get it from Amazon for $5.49 (also available as a two-pack). 

Promising review: "Like so many, I found this scent on TikTok. I was a bit skeptical at first but finally got around to trying it. First off, this scent smells amazing! Almost every time I've worn it, I receive compliments. It has a sweet smell, almost like warm cake or sugar cookies with a hint of lemon. With such an affordable price, I would definitely recommend this to anyone curious about trying it." —Chrissy

I'm also obsessed with the way you can reuse the artsy tin they come in! 

Promising review: "So totally awesome. 😬 I needed new Band-Aids — I’m always doing something ridiculous, and with these, so pretty. I have one cat who likes to let me know when she’s done with pets, and I have claw marks from her — not to mention my general clumsiness with gardening and cooking. Love them!!" —Mom the Handyman

Get a pack of 50 from Amazon for $7.49. 

Check out a TikTok of Gold Bond in action. 

Promising review: "This cream has tightened the skin around my neck beyond my expectations. I’ve been using it daily (morning and evening) for over two months and still have product left. I’ve even tried it on my face and it gives me a bit of a 'face lift.' I’m officially a Bond girl. A bit sticky to the touch after a few hours of wear, but that doesn’t bother me. Will order again." —AP Wang

Get it from Amazon for $11.97 (also available as a three-pack). 

The brand recommends applying twice a day for best results. Read more about how Q10 can benefit the skin from the National Library of Medicine.

Promising review: "I’ve been using this for a few years and love it! I had loose skin after losing weight, and this gel has been a game-changer, with noticeable improvement in my skin’s texture and firmness in just a few weeks. I use this gel on my thighs, stomach, and underarms. I pair it with Nivea’s body lotion for the rest of my body. A little bit goes a long way, so the bottle lasts a while. I switched over to another gel for a month a bit ago, and I noticed my skin returning to uneven firmness and texture. Once I went back to using this product, I noticed improvements within a few weeks again. So, this isn’t a cure, but with continuous use, results are maintained to keep my skin firm, moisturized, and even textured." —Morgan

Get it from Amazon for $15.19 (also available in a pack of 12). 

Bonus: these also work as a bird deterrent to help keep feathery friends from crashing. 

Promising review: "This brings so much cheer to my home. It’s so pretty, tasteful, and well-made. The quality is great, and it’s so easy to use or reuse time and time again." —Michelle Daschner 

Get an 18-piece set from Amazon for $13.90. 

Reviewers mention this has worked on fine straight hair, thick wavy hair, and curls. 

Promising review: "I was not expecting this brush to be so amazing. I usually use a Wet Brush, and NO MORE of that. This one doesn't pull when the Wet Brush did. Feels amazing on my scalp. Just a very refreshing brush to find. I would definitely recommend this to everybody who has a hard time brushing their hair (even kids), very soft, and the price is excellent as well. Love love love this brush. Would definitely buy again and again." —Katy Shoemaker

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in four colors). 

Reviewers mention this fits comfortably on sizes large–3X. 

Promising review: "Absolute perfection! If you are on the fence, just buy it. It is absolutely beautiful and looks even more stunning in person. The fabric is incredibly soft, lightweight, and thin. As someone with sensitive, eczema-prone skin, finding pieces that are this breathable and gentle on the skin while looking this good is rare. It is the perfect blend of comfort and style. I highly recommend!!" —Emilio D

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in one size and 41 colors/prints). 

This is designed to work on all hair types, with reviewers with 1c–4c hair mentioning it worked for them! 

Promising review: "THIS STUFF IS AMAZING. Super easy to apply. I have fine, curly hair, and it leaves my hair glossy and soft without weighing it down. Works better than any Moroccan Oil, L'Oréal, or Briogeo product I've used and is wayyyyy cheaper. Gifted a bottle to a friend with very thick, curly hair, and they said it works amazingly on them, too. Just do it once a week, and you're set!" —Mid-west

Read our review of Elizavecca CER-100 Collagen Coating Hair Protein Treatment to learn more about why one BuzzFeeder calls it "the miracle product I've been searching for."

Promising review: "Loveee this so much!! It is so soft and snuggly, and so vivid and pretty! It makes me so happy when I get in bed and it is perfect for the warmer weather. When it’s colder out, I have another thicker blanket that I use on top of it. I personally love the cotton gauze material. I only use cotton bed linens because I get very hot while I’m sleeping and I find cotton to be the most comfortable. It’s warm in winter and cool in the summer. Highly recommend from someone very picky about bedding." —A Linc

Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in six sizes and 46 colors). 

Londontown is a small business that specializes in nail care products. 

Promising review: "This nail veil is so pretty and perfect for a simple, bare nail look! It applies very smoothly, and one to two coats work well.  With a top coat, it lasts almost perfectly for about five days, but chips are not very noticeable, so you can easily wear it for longer! I also feel confident in this brand's use of healthier, higher-quality ingredients, which makes it well worth the extra cost. My nails aren't left damaged by this product, and it has become my go-to when I don't have the time for a full-color look but still want my nails to look polished and pretty!" —Sofia K 

Get it from Amazon for $16+ (available in six shades). 

BuzzFeeder Elizabeth Lilly is a big fan! Here's what she has to say:

"I bought these after putting them in so many BF Shopping stories, and can say that they do live up to the Victoria's Secret alt claims! They also last well through industrial-level washers and dryers time and time again!"

Promising reviews: "This is my second purchase of these underwear. They are so soft, provide full coverage, are no-show under pants or skirts, and last a looong time. I bought more because they have outlasted all my other pairs. The colors are really pretty and don't fade. I recommend." —It's_Cori

"Move over Victoria's Secret! I wear them with my yoga pants and capris leggings and was surprised how seamless they looked. They’re so thin that I didn’t think they’d stay in place, but they do and are super comfy. Highly recommend." —Nori

If you're looking for a thong option, reviewers are also obsessed with these!

Get a set of six from Amazon for $13.49+ (available in women's sizes XS–XL and 15 sets; check out a plus-size version). 

Promising review: "I knew I wanted something to finish off my bench seat windows. These blinds were not only easy to install, but I am impressed with the quality and how easy it is to raise and lower them. I think all four were out of the box and installed in 15 minutes. Offers light filtering, which is perfect for my needs. If I want to take them down for my holiday garland, it will be super easy to remove and put back up after the holiday." —doug huntley

Get each panel from Amazon for $37.75+ (available in 10 styles and a range of sizes).

Promising reviews: "Between myself (medium long hair) and my overly fluffy cat, a lot of hair and fluff was continually getting caught up on the roller brush of my vacuum. I dreaded vacuuming because it took so long to pull and snip the hairs wrapped up on the roller brush out with scissors. Not anymore! This silly, little, inexpensive thing works great! Super quick to remove all the hair/fur — in virtually a minute, then back to vacuuming with my lovely Miele vacuum." —MKS

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord uses this: "I bought this because I crave that Black Honey and will buy it until the day I die, but I am always paranoid of losing it, so I almost never let it leave my bag. I have tried probably five or six "almost" versions of Black Honey that came close, but this one genuinely spooked me. It has the same easy glide, same buildability, and the same refreshingly hydrating effect. It was a two-pack so I gave one to my BFF, another Black Honey fan, who also could not detect the difference!" 

Promising review: "Better than Clinique! I bought this one on a whim but never liked the real Black Honey Almost Lipstick by Clinique, since it tends to run red on me. This shade, in my opinion, is exactly what Black Honey SHOULD be, as it looks more like Black Honey in pictures. For the price, it can’t be beat, so I’m buying more." —HAC 

Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (also available in the pink honey and nude honey styles, and variety two- or three-packs). 

Promising review: "La Jolie Muse candles are elegant, beautifully packaged, and, more importantly, smell spectacular! I cannot get enough of this fragrance. It is warm and cozy without being overpowering. The candle itself burns evenly, and you just can't beat their quality. Yes, you will pay a little bit more for their products, but I find a treat like this to be worth it. This is my third Sahara Amber candle from La Jolie Muse, and I couldn't be happier!" —Lila 

Get it from Amazon for $29 (available in ten other scents and as a two-pack). 

Promising review: "The quality was much better than I anticipated. The sizes were also bigger than I thought. They work perfectly from fridge to oven to table." —Kathy

Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in seven colors).

Reviewers do say it has a bit of...spice...to it. So if you experience a tingling sensation, that's totally normal! Some people also said the closer you get to the bottom of the tube, the harder it is to get the product out — you can snag a squeezer to prevent that from happening!

Promising reviews: "At first, I was kind of skeptical. But after a week of using it, there is a difference. The age beige is disappearing. My teeth are much whiter and on the way to being much brighter. My breath is much fresher and without my buds being tasteless. Yes, it does taste and even smell like Pepto Bismol — but it's absolutely magical. No more regular toothpaste that absolutely does nothing but leave an unpleasant scent in your mouth as if you didn't brush." —Angelique Cox

"I have never had a toothpaste make my teeth slay this hard. They’re SO white. I was upset because I had been through so many teeth whitening treatments, and yet my teeth were still yellow and felt stained. It’s been a few days, and my teeth already look at least seven shades lighter. There are so many toothpastes that say 'whitening' and don’t do the job, but this one ACTUALLY whitens, which feels like a rare find. It’s also minty, and my mouth feels super fresh every time I use it. If you’re tired of having yellow teeth, this toothpaste is going to do its job and blow you away!! Never going back to any other toothpaste, I am too in love with these results." —Alexis Myer

Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (also available in larger packs).

Promising review: "When my granddaughter comes, I always buy her a craft for her to sit and do. She absolutely loves this. Kept her busy for hours and very inexpensive." —Arlene  

Get a set of four from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in 12 designs, and as a set of six and eight).

Promising review: "I have the driest heels and this is the ONLY product that has ever worked. Before I used this my heels had some pretty deep cracks and now they're almost baby soft again. BUT please follow the directions...left it on my super dry thick callused heels for only three minutes and the calluses were literally melting off! Wonderful product! So glad I don't have to go soak my feet in those used tubs at the nail salon anymore." —Key2Del

Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in two scents, unscented, in a two-pack, and with a foot file). 

Don't worry, the reviewer who took the pics above said they waited for their blister to heal before applying the oil. Note that this contains retinol, and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends talking to your doctor before using topical retinol if you're pregnant.

Here's what BuzzFeeder Emma Lord has to say: "FWIW, re: scars, this stuff really works. I had thyroid surgery a few years ago and Bio-Oil took me from looking like I'd stumbled out of the Red Wedding to virtually no detectable scar within a few months. All I did was apply it once in the morning and once at night."

Promising review: "I can honestly say I have no dislikes about this product. I have been using this product for the past year and am pleased with the results that I have gotten so far. It smells refreshing. My skin is softer and smoother. It helps with uneven skin tone and fades stretch marks. I highly recommend this product to anyone who wants to improve the overall appearance of their skin. You can use it on your face and your body. It works wonders. I absolutely love my Bio-Oil!" —LJ

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: "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: "This has saved me from carrying around all my medications in bottles. It has made such a difference and truly changed my life!! Great quality! If you have medicine you need to take throughout the day this is a great way to keep them organized in your purse or bag, It comes with three so I have emergency medicine in another and must haves (Tylenol, cold meds, etc.) in another. I am prepared and it feels good!!" —Be Kind to One Another

Get a three-pack from Amazon for $6.09+ (available in three colorways and a pack of two). 

Just throw one or two sheets into your wash, depending on the size of the load. 

Promising review: "These Color Catcher sheets really protect colors from bleeding. It makes all clothes/laundry brighter and looking like new — not that old washed color after just one wash without these sheets. I give this product 5+ stars. Highly recommend. A few pennies spent additionally on your laundry makes one look like wearing new clothes all the time." —Nikita

Get 72 sheets from Amazon for $11.57 (also available in larger packs).

Promising review: "Such a reasonably priced, simple, well-made device. Noticed a difference immediately! I was dealing with some bad breath despite regular brushing, flossing, and mouthwash. I thought it was maybe from dry mouth (been using room fans more at night), but nothing seemed to be helping, and I didn’t have any symptoms indicating anything medical. I brush my tongue too, but I can barely stand it with my gag reflex, and my brush only covers a small area. After just two to three passes using this device, I can feel the difference and have had zero issues with my breath, and my tongue has felt super clean! I was nervous that the metal would feel sharp or be incorrectly sized (small mouth), but it was incredibly comfortable. Add this to your dental hygiene routine!" —Diana G. 

Get it from Amazon for $5.49 (available in three styles and larger packs). 

Promising review: "This product, my drill, and the flat sponge-type cleaning pad were the only things that worked, transforming this very dirty tub into cleaner than clean. Very little muscle power necessary. A little goes a long way. It removes the worst of things and leaves behind a kind of ceramic coating. It’s amazing." —Glinda

Get it from Amazon for $5.97 (available in a set with a Sqeezy sponge). 

Promising review: "We bought these recently and used them on a long plane trip and at Disneyland. They help with [our son's] anxiety and kept him from biting and chewing his fingers, something he does when he is heightened." —Amazon Customer 

Get a set of six from Amazon for $6.29 (also available in as set of 18). 

Promising review: "My best friend loved this for her birthday. She loves Halloween and tea, and this was such a cute and perfect gift." —Harley Nixon

Get it from Amazon for $16.70 (also available as a two-pack).

Check out a TikTok of the foot masks in action. 

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord uses these: "I'm a long-ish distance runner and these were certainly an interesting experience for my feet! You slide them on and after a few minutes feel a tingling, mildly burning (in a good way) sensation. It doesn't quite numb your feet, but it relaxes them. I kept them on for 30 minutes and then toweled my feet off, and the tingling sensation slowly faded over the next 30 minutes. After that, my feet felt very refreshed and relaxed at a time of day when they're usually aching from all the miles I put in. The whole thing was a mess-free, easy process, and I will definitely keep them on hand for longer run days!"

Promising review: "Wow — these are amazing! After just one use, my feet felt baby soft. The mask was easy to use, super hydrating, and left my heels and soles noticeably smoother. I love that it works while you just sit back and relax—no scrubbing or extra effort needed. If you’re looking for an at-home spa treatment for your feet, this is a must-have. Perfect anytime you want your feet to feel refreshed and silky smooth." —Kipp Baldwin

Tibet Almond Stick is a small business based in Illinois.

Promising reviews: "I recently got these Tibetan floor wax sticks, and they're like magic wands for your floors and furniture! Got a scratch? No problem. Just wave one of these sticks over it, and voilà — scratch be gone! It's like having a tiny wizard in your cleaning arsenal. These wax sticks fill in scratches on the floor and furniture like a charm. My floors and furniture look brand new, and I didn't even have to cast a spell. Highly recommend!" —b4komer

"This product is quite literally life changing. I bought a house that had a white film on all of the wood. I tried everything to remove it, and nothing worked — until this product! It is a great price, works so well, and is easy to use! You can see how well it works. It was applied to the right side of the closet but not the left. 10/10 recommend. Just buy it!" —Julia
