You absolutely-positively deserve the best of the best.
1. A collagen-coating hair treatment that’ll have your dry, brittle, or frizzy hair feeling like it’s on cloud nine. This hair mask is infused with collagen and protein extracts, and after applying to wet hair and sitting for only five minutes, your hair will be completely transformed.
2. A set of cleverly designed ceiling fan pulls to take the guessing game out of whether or not you’re about to pull the wrong chain. Reviewers say they’re the perfect length so you don’t have to find something to stand on just to use them.
Promising review: “This is the definition of ‘product you didn’t know you needed because you didn’t know it existed.’ I was FOREVER pulling the wrong chain on our bedroom ceiling fan. (Want the light off? Oh no…now the fan’s on high. Need to change the fan speed? Eek…now you’re in the dark.) They’re a much better quality than I expected. They’re actually quite heavy-duty pull chains, and they add a bit of fun to the decor (when you notice them — most of the time, who even thinks about a ceiling fan pull chain?). As an added bonus, my infant daughter loves staring at them while I change her diaper or jammies. I tap them to make the chains swing, and it’s instant fascination, which helps make my job easier!” —LHD

3. A Panoxyl foaming wash over 40,000 reviewers have given 5 stars. This maximum-strength face wash contains 10% benzoyl peroxide, the highest over-the-counter concentration you can buy. It’s also antimicrobial, which means it’s fighting off the bacteria that causes acne in the first place and preventing new breakouts from forming.
Promising review: “This stuff works like magic. I’m 33 and I’ve dealt with bad back acne since I was a teenager. After one week of using this, my back is night and day different. Just remember to not wash it off immediately. Let it sit on your skin for about two minutes for it to work. —Filburt_Turtle
Get it from Amazon for $9.77.
4. A reviewer-beloved veggie chopper that’ll help you prep all your fresh ingredients in a flash (which is generally the most time-consuming part of cooking). This handy gadget allows you to chop, slice, and julienne your veggies just by pushing down on the top, with a built-in storage container to catch your ingredients and prevent any mess.
This chopper comes with four interchangeable blades: a small and large dice blade, a spiral blade, and a ribbon blade.
Check out a TikTok of the veggie chopper in action.
BTW, Fullstar is a small business established in 2017 that specializes in kitchen gadgets.
Promising review: “Makes life so much easier. I can’t imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. We used to have a Prepworks chopper which was a similar idea, but you had to press so hard to chop, and it broke after not too long. This one requires very little effort to cut through the food and it has a generous container.” —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in four colors).
5. A ChomChom hair roller that works so well to remove pet hair, it’ll make you say, “Oh yeah, my couch was that color!” Unlike a normal lint roller, the ChomChom doesn’t contain sticky adhesive, which means it can be used over and over again.

Promising review: “Where has this been all my life!! We have one long-haired cat and three dogs — suffice it to say, shedding hair is a big problem on every cloth-like surface in our home. No more vacuuming the couches and chairs like wild when you have this around. This picks up hair quickly and easily when used correctly (fast back-and-forth motion). I will never not have this in our house!” —Shelby Cipolla
Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in two colors).
6. A pack of discrete bra strap holders, aka the ultimate life hack for every bra wearer out there! The handy clips on either side will keep your bra straps up and securely in place — no more having to readjust every five minutes.
Promising review: “Since I started using these clips, I haven’t had to pull up my straps a single time! I used to have to pull them back up a dozen times a day. No more. Now I can put on my bra and then just forget that it is there. I don’t notice any change in the fit of my bra. I wear a large cup size and the last thing I wanted was to add to that. However, with the straps fully extended on my bra, I find the fit to be essentially the same as before. The only difference is that the straps stay in place. If you’ve ever struggled to keep your straps up, you owe it to yourself to try this product.” —K. Howe
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $5.97+ (available in eight color combos).
7. A manual flossing toothbrush with special bristles to clean in between your teeth and get out all those popcorn kernels and sesame seeds from your everything bagel, leaving you feeling like you just left the dentist. And if you have sensitive teeth, no worries, because reviewers say these bristles are super soft.
Mouthwatchers is a small business established by Ronald Plotka, DDS, that specializes in antimicrobial toothbrushes designed to get deeper cleans even patients with “great” dental hygiene might miss with traditional brush and floss routines.
BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord loves these: “I use an electric toothbrush usually, but I feel like I’m getting a much more satisfying clean from these?? Especially because I tend to get yellow stains between my teeth no matter *how* much I floss, and these bristles seem to actually target that a lot more effectively.”
Promising review: “I absolutely love this toothbrush!! TikTok made me buy it and I will never own anything else again. My teeth feel clean all day long like I went to the dentist but better. I even have a sonic toothbrush and this blows it out of the water. Don’t hesitate…buy this for your teeth!” —Amy
Get a set of two from Amazon for $9.90.
8. A jar of internet-beloved The Pink Stuff, capable of cleaning and removing stubborn stains and dirt from surfaces such as sinks, cookware, tiles, and more WITHOUT the need for elbow grease. Using The Pink Stuff can restore the shine and cleanliness of your home, making it look newer and fresher.
Promising review: “THIS STUFF IS MAGIC. If you’re questioning getting this to clean harder stains or anything, this is your review to read! I was a little skeptical because I’ve tried many things to clean my shower door with the hard-water stains and nothing really ever got it completely clean…this stuff did! I wish I would have taken before pictures. It did take a couple of applications and some scrubbing, but honestly I didn’t have to scrub hard, just used a wet cloth and this and my shower door is now completely clean without any hard water stains! I’m obsessed. Now to see what else I can clean with it.” —R. Ford
Get it from Amazon for $5.29.
9. A keloid remover in case you just got a new cartilage piercing but don’t remember signing up for the little bump that keeps growing in size. This stuff helps heal and reduce that unwanted guest before it gets any bigger so you can refocus on your new bling.
Note: This product is not an overnight miracle. Apply this 2–3 times a day, be patient, and you’ll start to see the results.
Talk to your doctor before attempting to treat your keloid on your own, and learn more about keloids from Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: “This product is amazing! Truly a miracle product. I had an AWFUL keloid forming near my nose piercing about six weeks after getting it done and it was getting bigger and more irritated by the day, nothing was helping. I bought this and started using it and in less than two weeks my huge keloid was completely gone! I was definitely skeptical and a little nervous when it didn’t seem to be getting noticeably smaller after a week but then the second week, it started totally disappearing so give it some time to work if your bump is on the larger side. If you remain patient and apply it twice a day, it should do the trick!” —Jordan Caprigno
Get it from Amazon for $12.85 (also available in multipacks).
10. Bio-Oil, a multi-use oil packed with all the good stuff like vitamin E, chamomile, and lavender oil to help improve the appearance of dark marks. This nongreasy body oil helps to retain essential moisture in your skin so you can stay hydrated and give your skin the love it deserves.
Promising reviews: “Holy grail product. This is an amazing product. I have sensitive skin, but this has not affected me negatively at all. This product is amazing. It took about three months for me to get wonderful results. There is a slight, somewhat medicinal smell, but I actually kind of like it. If you have scars of any kind, I would highly recommend giving this product a try. I have an old burn scar on my hand; no matter what I used it never seemed to fade in the slightest. I’ve been using Bio-Oil on it for about three months now and it’s made such a difference! It’s basically completely gone! Such a better result than I was expecting! I was only hoping to fade it slightly.” —sarah_baerah
Get it from Amazon for $9.95+ (available in two sizes).
11. The cult-favorite Cosrx Snail Mucin Power Essence, which is formulated with 96.3% snail secretion that’s perfectly lightweight and hydrating for all skin types. This essence leaves a nice glow and keeps skin visibly smooth after a few uses. No wonder it has over 50,000 5-star ratings!
Amazon
The snail mucin is obtained in a safe way, so no snails are harmed!
Promising review: “I’ve been using this morning and night for about two weeks and I can say I understand the hype! My skin looks better than it has in so long. Firstly, the texture surprised me. When you think snail mucin, you think slimy and gross. This wasn’t sticky or slimy whatsoever. I was afraid it was gonna leave my skin feeling gross and slippery. Surprisingly, my skin drank it right up! No residue whatsoever and it’s a nice primer before makeup. I have oily skin and it’s helped with that as well. My skin is so soft, with a nice healthy glow. I’ve noticed my red spots from past acne is fading and my skin just overall looks great. Highly recommend!” —Sarah D.
Get it from Amazon for $15.
12. A carton of popcorn salt if it’s been a mission of yours to recreate movie theater popcorn at home. A little sprinkle goes a long way in terms of flavor so you can enjoy this buttery goodness movie after movie.
BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord writes: “Our family recently unearthed this because beloved To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before author Jenny Han mentioned that it was her secret to delicious popcorn, and it may have just wrecked me for other at-home popcorn for the rest of my life. It genuinely tastes just as salty and buttery and savory as fresh movie theater popcorn. I inhaled it so fast that every single one of my organs lit up in mild alarm.”
Promising review: “I am a person who will make myself sick eating buckets of popcorn (I have no self control). This has by far been my favorite ‘TikTok made me buy’ item. My at-home popcorn is now my favorite thing to make and I don’t need to go the theater for popcorn. Very much worth the purchase and this will last me such a long time.” —S Martinez
Get it from Amazon for $9.40.
13. A lightweight Cosrx mild gel cleanser that’s gentle enough for you to lather up and have that fresh face feeling every day. This pH-balanced face wash won’t disrupt your skin, which could lead to all sorts of problems like dryness, oiliness, and breakouts. It also contains BHA (a type of exfoliant that unclogs pores) and tea tree oil (which has antibacterial properties that zip zits).
All Cosrx products are dermatologist-tested, cruelty-free, and have no parabens, sulfates, or phthalates.
Promising review: “After hours of exhaustive research on Korean gentle cleansers, I finally decided upon a cleanser. This was one of the best decisions I have ever made for my face! I have sensitive, combination, and very volatile skin, so if I ever make it unhappy, it definitely lets me know. This cleanser is light enough that it doesn’t feel thick or cloying, it has a very subtle smell (which I love), and the ph of the cleanser is so low that the only thing I am worried about for my face anymore is the ph of the water I am splashing on my face. It hasn’t caused any bad breakouts or negative reactions like drying or tightness of skin but it can certainly handle itself in the department of a full face cleanser. This has caused me to look forward to trying more Cosrx products!” —Haley Hart
Get it from Amazon for $13.99.
14. A Simple Modern tumbler, which is a dead ringer for the fancier (and pricier) Stanley cup. It can keep your drinks cold for hours on end, and not even a drop is getting past its leak-resistant straw lid. Plus, it comes in a variety of trendy colors that will have your drink game seriously on point.
Many reviewers said they find themselves drinking more water when they have a straw, and the fact that it’s so dang cute doesn’t hurt either!
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes says, “I finally decided to hop on board the hype train for these big tumblers and am already obsessed with my Simple Modern one! I opted for the mint green color and it’s as pretty as I’d hoped in person. The fact that this has both a straw and a handle means I end up carrying it around with me and drinking WAY more water than I did before. BTW! I highly recommend getting straw covers to protect against dust and germs — as pictured above, I got cute cloud ones (like these) and they work perfectly!”
Promising review: “If you have been wanting a Stanley cup, believe me, save yourself some money and get this cup! You will end up with a better cup than the Stanley! I have dropped/tipped over this cup a couple of times and only a couple of drops of water come out. If I did that to my Stanley, water got everywhere! And this cup keeps the water so cold. And if you purchase silicone straw toppers, it keeps the water even colder! Also, it fits in my car cup holder and my Stanley really didn’t. Love this cup!” —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $26.98+ (available in 26 colors and two sizes). Also available in a style without the handle!
15. A super cute mini waffle maker that allows you to quickly make adorable and delicious treats. From chocolate chip waffles to cinnamon rolls and even crispy hash browns, the possibilities are endless.
Promising review: “At first, I laughed thought it was too small to really do anything. I was so wrong — it’s an amazing little waffle maker!! Can cook almost anything on it! I have cooked eggs, waffles, and French toast.” —S Peterson
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in 17 designs).
16. A pack of popular Cosrx pimple patches to shrink your problems overnight. Ok, I’m not talking student loans or awkward first date type of problems, but they do help with pimples! These patches not only cover up your zits, but they also suck out all the gross gunk, leaving your skin looking fresh and clear.
For persistent or bigger pimples, leave a pimple patch on overnight for two to three days to allow the pimple to diminish completely.
Promising review: “This product works! It stays on until you remove it and honestly, you can wash your face and forget it’s there and still it holds up to a lather without falling off. I had a few hormonal acne areas on my chin that were painful to the touch. This patch seemed to alleviate the discomfort and I forgot about it and wore them overnight. It took a few days for the spot to go down in size but it works. As for blemishes after threading, single treatment and by morning… the blemish is gone.” —LaTisha Taylor
Get a three-pack (with 24 patches each) from Amazon for $10.99.
17. A cute little Tonymoly octopus-shaped blackhead remover that rids your nose and chin of all the gunk that’s built up through out the day and exfoliates pores, making your skin look smoother and cleaner.
Promising review: “After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me, smells great too. Here’s how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt is visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, then I used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like me.” —LuckLocust
Get it from Amazon for $12.50.
18. A stunning claw clip if you want to feel like the main character in a classic Disney princess movie, frolicking about your home singing with your sidekick pet kitty.
Amazon
Promising review: “These hair clips are really good quality. My hair is a couple of inches past my clavicle, about 4 inches past, and medium thickness. The clip holds it very secure. I think these clips could hold thin or thick hair. Thank you for a fabulous product.” —Debra DeMattei
Get it from Amazon for $6.59+ (available in 29 designs).
19. A bagless, touchless stationary vacuum so you can say goodbye to struggling with a dustpan that NEVER seems to get those last few lingering pieces of debris on the floor.
Promising review: “Saw it on TikTok and knew I had to have one. I hate cleaning but get annoyed with the clumps of dog hair and bits of things on my kitchen floor. I usually just vacuum my tile with the vacuum which is a pain. This thing is so easy to just sweep things into and it sucks them right up. Sure, it’s more expensive than my actual vacuum, but I’ve only had it three days and have used it two times.” —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $149+ (available in five colors).
20. Eden BodyWorks Coconut Shea Curl Defining Creme allowing you to effortlessly define and moisturize your curls while taming unwanted frizz. And don’t worry: Your beautiful tresses won’t feel weighed down or greasy.
Walmart
Eden BodyWorks is a Black woman-owned business established in 2004 that specializes in natural products to nurture, restore, and maintain hair. Reviewers with 2c–4c hair mention it working well for them!
Promising review: “I have 4A high porosity hair and no product can keep my hair moisturized longer than an hour other than this product. Even though this is a curl defining cream, I use this to moisturize my scalp, ends, and leave out curly hair in boho braids. I basically use this product for everything! I’ve completely stopped using oil, only using this product, and my hair has grown so much in a year. This product is a godsend, so if your hair is always dry no matter what you do this is the answer.” —ParisZ
Get it from Walmart for $8.98.
21. A pocket-sized Tile Mate that’ll put an end to those frantic mornings spent searching for your keys or purse — simply ring your Tile Mate using the free app and follow the sound to your misplaced items. And if you lose your phone, don’t sweat it! Just double-press the button on your Tile Mate and your phone will ring, even if it’s on silent.
Amazon
Promising review: “Do you leave your keys in the fridge? Friend’s car? Somewhere lost in your bed? Cat’s food bowl? Have you always said ‘man what’s wrong with me?’ Well me too! So stop thinking you’re a loser and get the tile! It has saved my butt pretty much every day. You can find your keys with your phone and find your phone with your keys!! I love the 21st century!” —Willy Finnegan
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in two colors and also available in multi-packs).
22. Buttery soft high-waisted leggings — you’ll be pleasantly surprised at how similar the feel is to Lululemon or Athleta. These leggings are so comfortable, you’ll want to wear them every single day (and with so many colors and patterns to choose from, you totally could). The material is super stretchy so they move WITH you, not against you; *PLUS* several reviewers say they’re not see-through (aka squat-proof).
Promising review: “EASILY the best yoga pants I’ve found at this price point — I actually prefer them to Lulu and Athleta! The waist is incredible, it is ACTUALLY seamless and does not have elastic at the top that cuts into your stomach. I now have these in five colors and I’m buying a few more right now. The patterned pairs are slightly larger than the solids: I wear a 2 in Lulu and small or XS in Athleta; I like a small in these pants for the solids and XS in the print. The pockets are perfectly sized for phones, deep enough to keep them snug and not a lot of wiggle room, which I love! Buy these, you will not be disappointed.” —Lorin
Get them from Amazon for $25 (available in women’s sizes XS–XL and in 24 colors/patterns).
23. A fanny pack made to keep your phone, wallet, keys, and other essentials close by whenever you travel or just for day-to-day use. Reviewers love that the versatile strap can be worn crossbody or around the waist, keeping their hands free while on the go. Lulu’s belt bag has been reaaalllll quiet lately.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly says, “I wear a size L/XL in clothing and sometimes waist bags just don’t work out so well for me. With this one, I can confirm that it fit around my waist comfortably without outerwear, across my chest without outerwear, *and* over a thick coat and several layers. The pockets inside are so handy and I even had room to spare throughout my Iceland trip. Just make sure that you zip the zipper ALL the way because the zipper goes down pretty far on the sides for easier access to contents.”
Promising review: “I’m SOO impressed with the quality of this bag! I’ve worn the Lululemon belt bag and I gotta say, this is pretty similar. Almost identical, except the Lululemon is a tiny bit smaller size. The Lululemon one also has a plastic zipper but this Amazon one is metal. I prefer the plastic but this one is OK. It might be better than Lululemon JUST for the fact that they have so many color options!” —Em
Get it from Amazon for $13.98 (available in 43 styles).
24. A pair of sleek motion-sensor cabinet lights to instantly brighten up your kitchen. They’re easy to install thanks to their magnetic adhesive strip, *plus* they’re battery-powered so you can simply remove and recharge the battery as needed.
Promising review: “I loved having these excellent magnetic attachments so I can move them around and turn them on to charge them and it has a high-end look. Battery life is also excellent and sticks to any metal surface. Definitely one of the best purchases I have ever made.” —Luis R
Get them from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in warm white and cool white).
25. A popular checkerboard throw blanket giving Barefoot Dreams cozy vibes but at a fraction of the price. Not only does this chic throw add the perfect pop of personality to any room, but it’s also soooo soft that one reviewer compares it to the feel of fuzzy socks (that you can wrap your entire body in).
Promising review: “This blanket beats others because it is softer (a buttery and fluffy feeling), it is long enough for a 5’10” tall person, it is not too light and not too heavy (works year-round in Virginia), and it has a stretch to the material that I haven’t experienced with other soft blankets. The design is just so-so, but the colors are nice, and the price is right. If they updated the designs with more colors, patterns, then these would be absolutely perfect. I like this as much as my much more expensive Barefoot Dreams blanket and Williams Sonoma faux-fur blanket.” —JH
Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in seven colors and three sizes).
26. A quarter-zip pullover sweatshirt everyone will think you got from Aritzia, but I won’t tell them you didn’t pay $80 for it. It’s super soft and gives the perfect oversized look without being frumpy. Wear it to run errands or just to look cute while lounging around the house!
Promising review: “So TikTok made me buy this + seeing it over and over again on the Amazon Best Sellers tab. I finally took the plunge to buy it. I love this jacket so much. It literally is comparable to my $80 Aritzia jacket for so much cheaper! I love how soft it is on the inside! Super fuzzy and warm. I love the collar, it’s stylish and I love to give it a little flip over. The zipper is quality too! I love the contrast of the black and white. I loved this jacket so much that I came back and bought it in white after buying the apricot color. I would highly recommend it to literally everyone. I bought the same size as my Aritzia jacket, which was a size medium. It fits me perfectly with an oversized look!” —Kate Dumas
Get it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in women’s sizes S–XXL and in 27 styles).
27. An elegant set of square wineglasses for days when you want to feel like a character on Gossip Girl. Similar to ones sold at Crate and Barrel, these lightweight and durable crystal glasses bring a level of sophistication to any occasion, whether it’s a fancy glass of orange juice for breakfast or sparkling wine for girls’ night.
Promising review: “We’ve had four of these glasses for over six months now and finally just added four more to our collection. These glasses are SO CHIC and are very similar to ones sold at Crate & Barrel but are MUCH more durable. Unlike the C&B glasses, you can cheers without feeling like the glasses will break. In fact, they’ve tipped over in the sink a few times and are still intact. They dry beautifully, sparkle after the dishwasher and we get so many compliments on them. I love them!” —Katie B
Get a set of four from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in two colors and also available in a set of two).
28. A cute undated daily planner you can use to plan out your whole day, from setting priorities and listing out appointments to tracking meals, snacks, and even your water intake. This planner has so many useful sections to help keep you productive and organized — there’s even a daily gratitude line at the top!
Each planner comes with 50 tear-off sheets the size of a standard piece of paper.
Bliss Collections is a small, family-owned business based in Sussex, Wisconsin.
Promising review: “I can’t think of a better ‘top of the morning’ expression than ‘You’ve Got This!’ That got my attention. Love the visual clock graphic too. I use a weekly planner and having daily pages available as needed are great. The layout is useful, not excessively detailed while still including all the important sections. It’s aesthetically pleasing.” —Wynelle
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in ten styles and two sizes).
29. An 18-piece makeup brush set that won’t leave your wallet empty because it’s (*drum roll, please*) under 15 BUCKS. The soft bristles feel like a gentle breeze on the skin, and one reviewer even compares the quality to Morphe’s brushes.
This 18-piece set comes with brushes for eye shadow, crease shadow, concealer, blush, foundation, pressed or loose powders, highlighter & eyebrows, PLUS a travel case.
FYI: Reviewers did note a plastic smell but also stated it should go away after a good wash.
Promising reviews: “These brushes are high quality for the price you’re paying. I definitely recommend giving them a try! I’ve had expensive brushes and these are still my fave. Very soft and dense. This came with everything I need and the little case is nice to keep everything together. Only downside is there were a few little brush hairs that’s were out of place, but I just trimmed them off. They really are the best brushes.” —savannah
“Love this set!!! It compares to the Morphe set I just bought for a fraction of the cost. 10/10.” —Margarita Ibarra
