It works like a white-out pen for your floors and can cover up to 150 feet of thin 2mm grout.

Promising review: “I was pleasantly surprised by how far these went. I did the entire floor of my large master bathroom, plus a little of the shower, with one pen. It is pretty forgiving, and you have quite a bit of working time before it dries completely. This was not a quick task, but it went faster than I thought it would. I was worried the white would look too bright, but it just makes everything look so much cleaner. I’m very happy with this product!” —Jenelle

To apply, just unroll, position where you want it, sloooowly smooth it down with a credit card, and then trim the excess.

Promising review: “I absolutely loved this contact paper. It completely transformed my countertop. It was super easy to apply, and if I messed up, it was extremely easy to redeem myself. I did this alone with no help, and I’m pretty proud of the outcome. Took me about 30 min to complete it. I used the whole roll of the smallest option, and it was enough for me. Super awesome, and I will be buying more of this contact paper soon when I transform another room in my home! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!” —Mariah

Promising review: “Thank goodness I found this stuff!!! I’m pretty religious in getting my hair done every 10–12 weeks, mainly because my hair always goes warm and it bugs me. I’m not sure if there were new products used this last time I went to the salon, but my hair turned brassy within four weeks instead of the usual 10. Instead of taking the 40-mile drive to the salon and paying all that money again, I got this shampoo. I used it like shampoo the first night, leaving it in for two minutes. The second night, I used it like a mask, leaving it on for five minutes. Seriously, where has this shampoo been all my hair-coloring life?!” —S. Elison

The razor has two edges: a fine-tooth one for thin hair textures and a wider one for thicker hair textures. (FWIW, people also use this on their pets as a quick grooming solution!)

Promising review: “I recently got a pixie haircut; I was hesitant to get one based on the fact that I’d have to get frequent haircuts, the cost of which would add up quickly. I did some research on YouTube and found some videos using the tinkle hair cutter to trim hair in between salon visits. I LOVE this thing! It is easy to give a little trim or a drastic cut, both of which I have done since getting the tinkle cutter. I was very nervous to try it, fearing that I might mess up my hair, so I just did a little bit first, but it was easy and only takes off small amounts of hair at a time. Seven months post-pixie haircut and I have only been to the salon once to have a re-shaping done of my hair. I will say that when the cutter feels like it’s ‘pulling’ your hair, it’s time to get new razors. I still prefer my pixie cut to be pretty short, and assuming I would have to go to the salon once a month for upkeep, I have saved $210 since having my hair cut. TOTALLY WORTH IT!” —brandi in louisiana

Promising review: “I have a pair of black leather flats that stank so badly my husband would yell at me if I took them off anywhere near him. But I love the shoes! So, I had to find something to make the stench go away without leaving me with an allergic reaction. Mini Moso was the answer. I honestly couldn’t believe it. A few days after placing them in my prized off shoes, I took a whiff from about a foot away. Nothing. I got closer. Nothing. I stuck my nose practically in the shoe. OK, maybe that’s pushing things, but I’ve got to tell you that 95% of the broken-in leather grossness was gone. So happy!” —Erin

Promising review: “I just got a brand-new mattress, and my cat got locked in my room and peed on my mattress in two places, leaving two big yellow SMELLY stains! I was worried about finding a product that would be OK on my pillowtop mattress. I was skeptical at first with the product being so cheap but the reviews had me sold! I sprayed it on my mattress liberally and waited five minutes as instructed. It says to blot, but with my stains, I scrubbed and was amazed when the stains started to disappear. I repeated one time and I honestly can’t locate where the stains used to be! Super impressed! Like others, I also really appreciated the nice fragrance! Didn’t smell like chemicals at all!” —Hailey Brown

Use it on antiques, dining tables, kitchen cabinets, wood doors, trim, and more.

Promising review: “This stuff is absolutely AMAZING. My wife and I were getting tired of looking at our worn-out cabinets and wood paneling and were very close to paying a professional thousands of dollars to refinish it all, but then we came across this product. Our paneling and cabinets were looking rough. We have two dogs who had jumped up and scratched places, and we also had an area that was damaged by water spots where our dog bowls were and several other areas that were just worn from heavy traffic. This stuff was like a magic eraser for water spots, scratches, scuffs, and any other blemishes. We simply wiped the product on with a paper towel and let is sit for 20 minutes before wiping it off with a clean towel. Everything looks brand new. We’re so glad we found this product.” —Kris

Promising review: “Before you splurge on a plumber or septic company, you HAVE TO TRY THESE. We bought our home in November, and in March, our toilets started ‘gurgling’ and losing water when the washing machine would drain. Over the next few weeks, they gurgled more and more — when the dishwasher drained or we took a shower. I did a lot of research and none of the potential problems were going to be cheap to fix. Everything I read required having professionals come diagnose and repair our plumbing issue. I bought these and prayed for the best. I was SHOCKED. After one month, the toilets hardly made any more gurgling noises or lost water. After using these for three months now, the problem has 100% disappeared. I can’t imagine the $ we saved by simply adding enzymes to our septic tank! 🙂 Added bonus: Our 8-year-old enjoys flushing the packet down the toilet each month, LOL.” —Jamie Smith

Promising review: “Okay, I don’t normally rave about things like this. I bought this on a whim in a last attempt to save my favorite duvet cover. The pills had gotten to the point where it was seriously uncomfortable to sleep, with them getting all up in my leg space. I thought I was going to have to get a new duvet cover entirely. Along came this lil’ baby. Not only is my duvet cover basically brand new, but I have found a new hobby. I’m de-pilling everything. Sweatshirts, leggings, blankets, socks, anything that looks like it needs some love. It does the job quickly and leaves everything looking fresh. Hi, I’m obsessed. I can’t stop. I should send this back. I’ve started asking if my neighbors need anything de-pilled. I’m going to buy one of these for everyone in my life. Everyone needs to own this. Take it away from me.” —Sydney Jensen

This works for all indoor and outdoors plants to encourage new growth. Just add seven drops to your watering can before watering.

Promising review: “I bought this for a money tree plant that my cat ate all the leaves and completely destroyed. The first pic was a week or so after using the fertilizer as recommended, on April 7, and the second is May 4. Of course, I keep away from my cat at this point. Highly recommended fertilizer!” —Beth

You can throw these in your watering can or any standing water in your backyard. They contain BTI, a bacteria toxic to mosquito larvae. The treatment lasts up to a month and treats 100 square feet of surface water. 

Promising review: “So far, this is the best method I have found to rid your houseplants of pesky flies, gnats, and other unwelcome guests. I keep half a dunk in my watering can at all times. When it dissolves (usually after a couple of months), I replace it with another. Works great on the houseplants. I tried a lot of other stuff first, and nothing compared.” —Joshua J. Homemaker

This tool also helps soften skin by gently exfoliating as you use it!

Promising review: “These products have been a fantastic find for me. They’re exceptionally gentle on sensitive skin, easy to handle, and they hardly leave any marks. Whenever I forget a touch-up on my eyebrows before heading to work, I always have them in my emergency bag, ready for a quick fix. They work effortlessly without needing additional oils or creams. It’s truly the perfect solution for busy individuals on the go.” —nikita khandheria

You get two dual-sided pens: one each with the left and right wings. The other sides have straight eyeliner.

Promising review: “I’ve tried the taping method, tried normal liquid liner, plastic winged stamping devices, stencils, all of it! So when I saw this, I thought, meh, why not give it a shot… It’s not like my hopes were high since nothing else has been efficient or worked as it should. But to my surprise, I put the left cat eye on first, and it was perfect, aside from needing to connect it to my current liner. I thought this was a fluke and did the right eye…again, it came out clean and perfect! I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE BEEN ABLE TO DO A CAT-EYE IN UNDER 10 MINUTES…LET ALONE THE two MINUTES THIS TOOK TO DO! There was no sloppy streaks that I had to touch up or anything you would expect. Just a clean crisp line.” —LadyMeow

Here’s what you do: Run some hot water, pop one of the packets in your disposer, let it foam, then wait for the foam to fully disappear. Garbage disposer = lemony clean and ickiness free.

Promising review: “WHERE HAS THIS BEEN ALL MY LIFE???! Holy cow, I didn’t realize how easy and quick it was to clean a garbage disposal until I bought this product! Typically, I’d just use vinegar and baking soda down the drain and call it good. I didn’t know that there was an actual disposal cleaning product available until I stumbled across it through a BuzzFeed article. I had to try it. The instructions are very simple. It literally takes five minutes and some hot water, and VOILA! you have a clean, no-longer-stinky garbage disposal. Any time I got a whiff of an odor, all I did was drop one of these packs in the disposal, and the smell was GONE! Plus, the blue foam bubbling in the sink was amusing to watch. Worth every penny!!” —VadersGirl

Of course, this doesn’t actually replace an actual dental cleaning!

 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. 

Promising review: “This was another one of my TikTok purchases! I was skeptical, but my kids hate flossing their teeth, so I thought this might help in between making them floss. They work amazingly! My kids said they could see and feel a difference on the first use, and I agree! They are definitely worth a try! I would suggest not pushing too hard; those tiny bristles really get in there. It felt like after going to a dental cleaning.” —AN

“These work great. We are taking our rescued basset hound to a Margaritaville-themed event, but the tropical shirt I ordered for her was a little tight, and the vendor didn’t have a larger size (my husband and I had shirts to match hers). So I found these, and I love the three holes and the different colors that matched her tropical shirt! Problem solved!” —woods

Promising review: “Y’all, this thing is amazing! My kitchen sink was completely clogged for four days. I’ve been trying to clear the drain with a different sink plunger that I already had and it didn’t do diddly squat. I was about to give up and call a plumber. Then I decided to order this one, and it just arrived… it completely cleared the drain in like three minutes. So then I decided to take it to the bathroom sink that had been draining extremely slowly, and within a minute, I had the water running so quickly and smoothly again. I got the small one, and it’s the perfect size for kitchen and bathroom sinks.” —JNeen

Important: If you have closet moths, use this set instead. 

Promising review: “Like every human, I hate to be invaded, in my own home, by insects that want to fly into my face. The first time I opened a kitchen cupboard and was accosted by the little pantry moths, I about had a fit. I emptied the cupboard, scrubbed it down, and immediately sent away for these moth traps. The people who cook up the pheromones in these traps must really know what they’re doing. I wanted to place several of the traps around my kitchen. I took out one, followed the simple assembly instructions (peel, fold, and place) and then went back to do another one. By the time I had assembled the second one, there were already a half dozen moths in the first one. Amazing. I recommend these traps highly!” —Waydemeyer

To use, brush your teeth with the pen, ensuring every section is fully covered. Keep your teeth exposed for 30 seconds, then thoroughly rinse and avoid eating or drinking for 30 minutes. Final stage? Blind everyone with your gleaming pearly whites. 

Promising review: “Let me just break this down for you…I’ve been using this product for years now, and it, in a word, is a dream. It’s a ridiculously easy daily application that you only have to wait 30 SECONDS with. It really whitens without any nonsense, and I have NEVER had an issue with it making my teeth or gums sensitive. Also, let me note that I’ve had my teeth professionally whitened with the UV light, and that didn’t do anywhere near the whitening that AsaVea is producing. I just recommended this to my friend two weeks ago even and she is already noticing results. Get this like immediately!” —Chetty Vendetti

This repairing hair treatment works just like a hair mask. You wash your hair, and then apply the treatment to your hair and let sit for 5–15 minutes. It’s in a little squeeze bottle, which is a huge plus because I hate having to scoop product out of a jar while I’m in the shower. The scent is nice without being overwhelming. After rinsing this out, I can feel a noticeable difference right away. My hair, once unruly and dry, now feels like silk. 

Promising review: “OK, so let me start with a description of my hair: It’s like Madonna’s hair in the ’80s on top and curly Qs underneath. It’s super thick, super porous, and super dry. I’ve tried expensive products and Brazilian blowouts and keratin treatments (which all work but are expensive!), so I dug around on the internet, and this product was mentioned in a few of the online reviews. I let it sit for 25 minutes, rinsed it with tepid water, and air-dried it for five minutes. I could already tell it worked. I literally could run my fingers through it and not get caught or tangled. I decided to blow it out because I wanted to see how a brush handled. NO SNAGS! This is the perfect go-to for any middle-class fancy girl and will be going into my arsenal. Don’t hesitate.”

Promising review: “I am a 30-year-old who has been wearing mascara since I was probably 15 or 16, and this is by far the best mascara ever. This beats Dior’s almost-$40 mascara.

I highly recommend this product and will buy again!!” —ALF

Just apply these to pimples after washing your face and let them go to work.

Promising review: “I have been using Mighty Patches for about four or five months now. Mighty Patch is a TOTAL GAME CHANGER; you put it on your blemish, usually at night after your beauty routine, and you wake to find that nasty pimple has almost completely been absorbed into the patch. Won’t lie; my pimples sometimes require another patch. But on day one of use, you’ll notice the patch taking away the nasty. At this point, your blemish may be at the last stage of healing, and the Mighty Patch sucked out all of the festering inducing mess, or like myself, I put on another patch the next night and again, more gunk taken out, and more healing has happened. Either way, regardless, this, to me, ALWAYS WORKS. Thanks to Mighty Patch, my skin has changed. It’s healed, there are no acne “tattoos” on my face from my popping and them scarring. This, to me, is a must-have in your beauty bag. It covers the pimple to protect from outside bacteria and pollution; it absorbs the bacteria and pimple-causing debris from the skin; all while being hardly visible. I’m in love with this product.” —Hilary

Differin is a strong acne product, and depending on your skin’s sensitivity, you might need to work your way up to daily use. Also! Since retinoids can make you more sensitive to the sun, you should make sure you’re applying daily sunscreen while using this product. If you’re able to use this at night vs. in the morning, that’s awesome — this way, your skin has some time to recover at night and hopefully poses less of an irritation risk the next day.

Promising reviews: “Has completely transformed my skin. I used to get hormonal acne every single month. I still get it now, but far less often and severely. Differin has really made a big difference in my quality of life. I have sensitive skin, so I only use it a couple of times a week and always over a light layer of lotion. When I first started using it, my acne did get worse for about a month, and then magically, one day, my skin looked amazing. It’s worth a try for sure!” —Britt

But I gotta tell ya, this delectable heaven-sent powder is one heck of an addictive and more versatile option. Utterly AMAZING on popcorn, in eggs, added to soups and sauces to layer flavors, veggies, PASTA…the list is endless (I think the only thing I haven’t tried was sprinkling it on ice cream…although LOL). It is a bit salty, so I advise testing the waters first. But I just ordered my ninth and tenth bottle of the Truffle Zest.” —Greengirl
