An effective set of sticky-stake insect traps to keep annoying insects from destroying your beloved plant bbs. These are efficient in catching gnats, fruit flies, and thrips.


amazon.com, amazon.com

Promising review: “Holy cow these suckers work! I’m so grossed out by the result, but at the same time I have a sick sense of satisfaction. I used these in my house plants that are breeding fungus gnats like crazy. I used them in conjunction with beneficial nematodes, and they definitely cut down on the number of gnats in our house. Unfortunately I added a new house plant, plus repotted one that had outgrown its prior home, and we are wrapped up in them again. I’m buying another package of sticky traps as soon as I finish this review!” —Megan

A pack of gold snail hydrogel eye patches designed to reduce the appearance of dark circles and to hydrate the under eye area. *Puffy eyes be gone!*


Rebecca O’Connell / BuzzFeed

I can tell my under-eye area looks firmer and brighter after I use them. The longer they stay on, the better. Under-eye concealer applies beautifully after using them. The gel patches stick better to my small face than the paper eye patches I’ve tried in the past.” —Amanda Blaum

An adjustable phone stand for keeping your phone handy for any video calls that can now be hands-free.


amazon.com

Promising review: “The stand sits solidly on my desk and I don’t have to worry about it falling over. Very simple and well-thought-our design with the two prongs to make space for the charging cord. The silicone on the stand means I can take the case off of my phone and it will not suffer any cosmetic damage. I like how the stand doesn’t involve any clipping in or snapping together, because that often can damage the phone if it is not in a case. Very simple and useful!” —Ismeh

A jewelry cleaning pen so your diamonds look just as fab as the day you got them. *Alexa, play “Shiny” from Moana*

person showcases before and after using jewelry cleaning pen


amazon.com

Promising review: “I actually don’t understand how this works so well. I used to drop my rings in a bit of watered down Windex, let them soak, then scrub with a soft toothbrush, rinse, and dry. That process took about 15 minutes, and even then my rings, and particularly the stones, were not flawless looking afterwards. I thought it did the job. ENTER DIAMOND DAZZLE STICK! I bought this after reading a BuzzFeed list and now I literally I sound like an infomercial talking about this thing. It’s incredible. First you dispense a little product, and you don’t even have to take your ring off!!! Then you scrub for approximately three seconds, rinse, and BAM!!!! Holy sparkles, Batman. My precious stones have never looked better. Even rings that looked pretty good before, I couldn’t believe how sparkly they were after this. Dazzle is right I guess. Consider me a lifetime customer.” —Amazon Customer

A set of cleaning tablets since we’ve all left our coffee accidentally in our travel cup and need something to remove the stains (oops).

amazon.com

Promising review: “I wasn’t sure if this was a gimmick or not. Turns out it works really well. I have four metal thermos-like containers that are used to keep tea warm every day. Over time, the tea stained the insides and was very difficult to remove. I added one of these tablets to the container, filled it with hot water, and let it sit for a few hours. When I came back to rinse it out, I was literally amazed at how clean it was. I think it looked cleaner than when it was new. I called my wife over to show her, and she was equally impressed. Awesome product!” —Robert A Moreno II

Promising review: “I was really sad when I thought my bucks were at the end of their road, because I had always heard that suede couldn’t be cleaned. With this brush and a little elbow grease, my bucks are looking great again! I didn’t use any water or cleaner, I just kept wiping the brush off on my jeans to keep the brush clean, then hit the shoe again with a clean surface. It even brightened the leather up a bit.” —Roberto

He ate some of all of them, but there was plenty left when I got back and they were in perfect condition! I couldn’t believe it!

Promising review: “I have had tension and migraine headaches for around 20 years. I have tried everything. OTC medication, prescription medication, pain injections, chiropractor etc… This topical oil has given me relief for nearly six weeks now. I have only had two to three headaches in that time, and they were mild. I ordered more already so I have some in my car and at home, and I bought some for two of my friends who suffer from chronic migraines. I would recommend this product to anyone with migraines.

Amazon

Promising review: “I bought these for my car and my mom’s a while back and these little things are great. Since I got my license I’ve hated merging or switching lanes; I never felt good or safe doing it. Since having these it’s been a blessing — I feel less like a scared new driver. I’m currently encouraging my sister and friends to invest in these too! These are also great for backing up, because you can see exactly how close you are to hitting the car behind, and it’s helpful when I parallel park in the city.” —Mariam Abass

Amazon

Promising review: “OK I’ll be honest, I ordered this because of the price. After reviewing several other options and having been disappointed with previous dusters I’ve had, I figured why spend more money on something that isn’t going to work? So I ordered the least expensive option but WOW does this little tool rock!!!! It’s very easy to use and clean. It does a fantastic job of cleaning and dusting the blinds and gets ALL of the crud off of them. My blinds haven’t been this clean since the day they were first installed. VERY happy with purchase.” —Amazon Shopper

A coconut lip scrub for the perfect pout that’s hydrated and exfoliated.

Amazon

It’s vegan and cruelty-free.

Promising review: “My lips have been so extremely chapped for the past few months from biting my lips constantly and from the harsh weather conditions. I would constantly moisturize my lips with whatever I had (lip balms, Vaseline, you name it) and NOTHING was working, so I knew that it was time to start looking into lip scrubs. I have to say that my lips haven’t felt so soft like this in so long. On the container it says to use a pea-size amount, and that really is all you need. A little really goes a long way. If you are someone who doesn’t want (or doesn’t have the resources) to make a homemade scrub then — coming from a current college student who definitely doesn’t have the resources or time to make their own — get this and it will be worth it!! —Shaneil

Promising review: “After going through multiple containers for my brown sugar and continuously throwing my brown sugar away due to giant hard lumps, I began to wonder why our brown sugar never lumped as a child. And that’s when I remembered a weird brown bear in our sugar. After a quick Google search I found this! I soaked it in water for 30 minutes and then added to my lumpy brown sugar.

A pack of large foam letters — ideal for bath tub time with young ones who need a little coercing to take a bath.

Amazon

Promising review: “I purchased these letters with the mesh bag for my 1-year-old’s birthday. He clearly needed bathtub toys and he loves chunky letter magnets, so I thought I’d give these large letters a try. I’m so glad I did! He’s far from easy on them and he bites them with his four teeth (two top, two bottom). The indents that his teeth leave correct themselves quickly and they’re plenty big enough not to be a choking hazard as is. Please realize that they pose a risk if torn apart, but babies, even with this ability, obviously shouldn’t be left unsupervised in the tub anyway. Even so, pulling them apart, even with toddler teeth, won’t be easy because they are very sturdy and dense.” —April Reyne

I can go to the powder room and remove whatever it is. I feel better having these in tow. We love Plackers for use here at home, which make flossing easy. With age, it just seems things tend to get stuck more, and these are a great idea to have along, just for in case. I can refill the case if I do end up needing to use them. The case is easy to open and close and feels like it will stay closed well in my purse. These are a great idea!” —Small~Town~Girl

I was a little skeptical because of the super large wand, I’m not usually a fan of those, but this mascara for sure made my jaw drop. My lashes were so full and voluminous when I used this and honestly, it might be a little early to drop the HG, but I can definitely see this as a staple in my routine and repurchasing once I’ve used it all up.

Amazon

Promising review: “My grill accumulated a lot of crud as a result of many cookouts. I tried to keep it as clean as possible with a wire brush and various cleaning pads and cleaners. I never could get the rack and grates to look like new. There was always a layer of permanent food residue, carbon, and other debris that defied removal. I decided to give the Magic Stone Grill Cleaner a shot. Surprise! Surprise! This is truly a magic stone. It removed everything from the grill parts that I worked on and left them looking like new. The cleaning process did put grooves in the bottom of the stone and that helped to get the sides cleaned off as well.” —Duffer.

Promising review: “This roller is everything. I have planter fasciitis. My pain used to be so bad I limped for a year. I had to wear tape for six months. I got better by rolling my foot with a tennis ball or a frozen bottle of water but it took a year. This roller has completely eliminated the pain in itself. It goes so deep into the tissue band. I use to have pain when I got out of bed or whenever I went on long walks but not anymore.” —Mari

An avocado slicer because no one wants to tango with the death that can sometimes be cutting up an avocado with a knife.

Promising review: “Avocado? Yes, Please! This tool is awesome. Easy to cut open the fruit. Pit remover works well, just push onto the pit and give it a twist, and the pit pops right out. The best part is the slicer. Makes beautiful slices for a great presentation. The tool can then be used to scrape any remaining fruit out of the skin. Really happy I bought this tool!” —NPR MAN

Amazon

Promising review: “Basically the best cleaning tool ever. Walls, counters, sinks, toys, you name it, I’ve used a Magic Eraser on it. We have a light-color sink basin in the kitchen and I use these once a week to keep it sparkling white. I used to have to use heavy-duty cleaner but just a quick wipe down with the Magic Eraser and it’s good as new!” —seven4eleven

An overflow drain cover so you can enjoy a few more inches of bath water during your luxurious soaks. I legitimately need this for my bath so my upper body isn’t freezing anymore.

Drain cover in bath tub


Amazon

Promising review: “We just moved into a new home and the bathtubs are *SO* shallow. My soul was slowly being ripped to pieces while soaking in a measly 7” of water. Devastating! It will be a while until we can afford to remodel the bathrooms, so I needed to find an alternative solution before I cracked. This product seriously improved the quality of my life. It’s a softer, malleable plastic than I originally thought, but convenient for different shaped tubs since it will mold easier. All I have to do to turn my nightmare tub into a dream was to run the suction cups under the faucet and snap the suction cups into place over the bath drain. It was so easy! I got an instant 5″ more of water!! Crowds applauded and cried, it was beautiful. After each bath I remove the drain cover and hang it from my shower caddy to dry out.” —Rachael

A Thaw Claw that’ll defrost meat up to seven times faster by simply suctioning it to the bottom of the sink and placing the meat under the claw. It’s time to forgo the microwave thaw (which just ends up weirdly cooking your food anyway).


Amazon

This product is perfect for any sink type so you don’t have to worry about fit!

Promising review: “A package of frozen meat would have taken at least two days to thaw in the fridge. I used this for a 2-pound package a couple of days ago, and the meat was thawed within 90 minutes. One of the most practical kitchen gadgets I own.” —Llda Schellhase

Promising review: “Hat is very comfortable, breathable. I tend to sweat wearing any hats and the fabric doesn’t do that for me. The light is really bright and haven’t found a reason to use it yet but it’s great to know if I need it, it’s there. I will update in the future if there’s more to say. Get it. Price is a steal.” —Andrew Newhook

A car emergency escape tool you’ll want to keep in every single one of your family members’ cars. It features a seatbelt cutter and window breaker.


Amazon

Promising review: “I ordered this cute safety tool on a bit of a whim while looking for accessories for my new car. Of course, I’ll admit, as a girl who loves pink, the color caught my attention first, but upon looking at it and being an independent woman who is most often alone in my car I thought having this safety tool might not be such a bad idea. It arrived in a timely manner and looks exactly like the picture. The window breaker feature seems to be good quality. My boyfriend is a police officer and he was impressed with the quality, he even assured me that if I were attacked I could use this tool and more than likely cause skull damage. I feel great knowing that I have this safety tool in my center console if I should, heaven forbid, ever need it.” —Kindle Customer

Car USB double port charger

Promising review: “I needed a USB charger for my car that would fit in a cigarette lighter port, that would also allow for the ashtray to be closed. I saw that this one was short and would be sort of flushed. I put it in the car as soon as I got it this afternoon and it looks great. Perfect fit. The ashtray closes with no problem even with a charging cord attached to it.” —I.M. Adams

And a desktop mini vacuum because it’s about time you cleaned out the dust trapped inside your keyboard and under your mouse pad…


amazon.com

Promising review: “I love how convenient it is! Makes my life just a little bit easier and allows me to be just a little bit lazier. Also, it’s pretty darn cute so it doesn’t stand out or look awkward sitting on my nightstand next to my bed. I am (currently) one of those sad, single ladies that likes to munch in bed while binge-watching the latest show I have discovered. I have black sheets so the crumbs and other random bits that get into the bed stick out like a sore thumb. This little ladybug helps it seem like I have my ish together and don’t eat every meal in bed.” —Natasha
