1.

A pack of 36 hydrocolloid acne absorbing patches to put on any unwanted pimples (are any pimples wanted?) overnight and — WOW — say goodbye to pus, oil, and inflammation in the morning.


amazon.com

Promising review: “I’m a 47-year-old woman who has adult cystic acne for 12 years. Four months ago I got the worst cystic zit of my life. It kept closing up and then refilling. I was so depressed and researched these dots online. I paid for next day shipping and was amazed how great they work! They were able to drain the zit and keep it draining so it couldn’t close and refill and get big and angry. They dots filled up so much I ran out and when I went to reorder they were back ordered so I had to order another brand. The other brand was a couple of dollars cheaper but they did not work as well. Get these! Seriously they really were a GODsend!” —auntylizzy

2.

A pair (or two) of high-waisted leggings that’ll be the softest and most opaque pair you own so why not get more than one color?


amazon.com

Promising review: “Let me start by saying that I never take the time to write reviews — and I purchase half of everything we buy on Amazon. However, as a former LLR obsessed mom of two toddlers, I felt called to make time to review these leggings. If you are reading this and wondering how these compare to LLR leggings, I am here to tell you I am confident LLR is ripping loyal customers off by charging $25-30+. These leggings are just as soft. They fit the same, if not better. They do NOT PILL if you wash cold and hang dry. I truly feel like I’m wearing ‘butter leggings’ or ‘like I’m naked’ or whatever other claims LLR makes. The price is obviously better and more fair in my opinion.”—Jen Wolfe

Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in “one size” and “plus size” and 25 colors).

3.

A few different velvet hair scrunchies to match any outfit you pick out that day. Try having one scrunchie, I’m pretty sure it’s impossible.


Claire’s

Pick your favorite scrunchies at Claire’s for $4.99 each (available in 50+ colors and styles).


buzzfeed.com

BuzzFeed writer Katy Herman says, “It’s a perfect crew neck that is modest but shows enough skin that it looks fashionable (read: it doesn’t have that high, almost mock turtleneck that shows up on cheap giveaway tees). It’s a great backdrop for necklaces. It fits like a dream. This tee is comfy and stretchy and not too boxy, but also not so clingy that it’s unflattering. Item three: sheerness. It passes this test too! Yes, as with most white tees you can kind of see the outline of my bra, but not in a way where I’d be uncomfortable wearing it on its own. The material is opaque and feels sturdy. Finally: versatility. As you can see from the pics, this cutie works great on its own but is also perfectly comfy to layer under a little dress! It’s a new go-to for sure, and I’m thinking of getting the black, too.”

A set pf silicone stretch lid covers, because your food keeps spoiling every time you haphazardly throw some cling-wrap on it. Store your food properly so it doesn’t go to waste! Speaking of waste, these will help rid your life of one-use plastics!


Amazon

Promising review: “This is truly an amazing replacement for plastic wrap or other covers that are not eco-friendly! And it saves you money in the long run! You can throw them in the fridge/freezer/microwave because they are made out of the most kitchen/earth friendly material…silicone! Plus, they’re easy to clean, easy to use, and durable as hell!” —Tammy Cardona-Zambeis

Get a pack of six from Amazon for $10.99 (available in multi-size ( 3″-10″) and small).

6.

A TubShroom drain protector that’ll prevent clogged pipes throughout your house by catching all the hair in your drains. You can shower me with thanks later.


amazon.com

Promising review: “I used to have to throw out expensive hair traps that sit over the drain after only a few weeks because you could never really get them fully clean. But not this thing! The genius is that the hair and scum get wrapped around the tubular part that sits down inside the drain. Why spend time and elbow grease really cleaning something like this just to avoid having something ugly down in your shower? This takes care of it; the top stays clean and it’s all you ever see. No offensive soap-scum.” —AmazonCustomer

7.

A wine vacuum stopper for those nights you think about finishing the whole bottle of wine before bed but decide not to. Stock up for a party with lots of half-empty bottles going around.


amazon.com

Promising review: “Plenty of people think, ‘why would I ever open a bottle of wine and not finish it?’ You’re probably correct (and we would probably be good friends). But this can do so much more. If your friends come over and pop some prosecco, the Vacu Vin can keep that thing bubbly until the end of the night. It also works with hard alcohols should you lose the cap (in drunken confusion). I highly recommend having one of these on hand. Even for that rare occasion that your friends accidentally open two bottles of wine at once!” —Thad Phallinger

Get it from Amazon for $11.89 (available in eight varieties).

A few Mighty Handles for carrying loads of groceries from the store to your car, and your car to your kitchen counter.


Amazon

Promising review: “OK, I admit I’m that guy who will overload trying to carry as many grocery bags possible to minimize trips. Yes. Guilty. The downside? Those darn loop handles of the plastic bags turn into something like razor wires and feel like they are slicing the tendons of my fingers. And I suspect one day I will lose a finger or two that way. The Mighty Handle is perfect for saving your fingers, while allowing you to carry a ton of bags and weight. And people who have seen me using them at the local Safeway are always asking me about them. ” —Jim

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in two sizes).

9.

A set of suspenders that’ll seamlessly keep your fitted sheets in place. Strapping idea, perfect for each bedroom!


Amazon

Promising review: “Where have these sheet grippers been all of my life?! These are AMAZING! My husband moves a ton in his sleep & we’d wake up every single day & have to readjust the fitted sheets. Since attaching the sheet grippers the sheets are perfectly intact every morning. LOVE these!” —AmazonCustomer

Get a set of four from Amazon for $8.99 (also available in black).

10.

A shaper insert so your boots stand tall (to prevent creasing and to create more space on your closet floor).


Amazon

Added bonus: You can easily trim them! They have guides for where to cut so you can fit boots of various heights differently.

Promising review: “I love these boot shapers! I shopped around for quite a while both in stores and online before deciding on these. I made the right choice! These are a great price and they definitely work well to keep my boots standing tall.”—AJ

Get a pack of two from Amazon for $9.99 (available in two and four pairs)

11.

Poo-pourri, a before-you-go bathroom spray, for a simple way to keep your loo from smelling like #2. Put one in every bathroom in your house, you’ll thank me later.


instagram.com

Promising review: “This stuff is a must if you are a human who goes to the bathroom. I even take it with me to public restrooms because you never know what smell is lurking in the air on the other side of the stall door. THIS IS A MUST, I TELL YOU! A MUST!” —Nina

Get an eight-ounce bottle from Amazon for $16.84 (available in 20 scents and seven sizes).

12.

A flexible cable protector so you can prevent your charging cord from fraying after, like, two weeks. We all wish we bought this like three chargers ago, but now’s your chance.


Amazon

Promising review: “I am always breaking my cables so I got these little protectors for all my wires, what a great bang for the buck. There are plenty in a package, it was enough for all my cables and I had some left over for the future.”—Erica

Get a pack of 24 from Amazon for $5.59.

13.

A produce-saving storage container that’ll save you money by saving your food up to two weeks longer than average! The interior tray helps keep moisture away from produce and the vent technology regulates flow of oxygen and carbon dioxide for the ideal produce environment! #science


Amazon, amazon.com

Promising review: “This was an amazing find for me. I was getting so tired of buying fresh asparagus and having it go bad after only a couple of days. I decided to give this a try and it works great. It is made specifically for asparagus but could be used for other items as well. I bought some asparagus on a Thursday and used it the following Monday and it was just as crisp and fresh as the day I bought it. I have been very pleased with it and would highly recommend it.”—CA

Get it from Amazon for $12.99.

A set of heel stoppers so you’re not sinking in grass or stumbling on pebbles next time you’re out in nature and happen to be in high heels. You’ll want these for all your pointy-bottomed shoes!


Amazon

Promising Review: “They work as advertised! They stop my heels from aerating the lawn, hooray! They do add some stability on flat, non-grassy surfaces and they keep my heels from dropping into holes in the door mat (which is super nice).”—Teressa

Get the pair from Amazon for $9.99 (available in sizes XXS–M).

15.

A pack of liquid ant baits that’ll attract unwanted bugs with its formula and then trap them inside because if you have an ant infestation A) I’m so sorry and B) you might want to buy a few of these!


Amazon, amazon.com

Promising review: “Ridiculously effective!!! I first went to the local store and bought RAID Ant Baits. The ants simply walked around the traps and showed ZERO interest. How is RAID still in business, I do not know! I went online and did some research and this Terro Liquid Ant Bait product was getting rave reviews and a lot of positive feedback. I bought some, opened up three of the six packs on Ant Bait, and within MINUTES, yes MINUTES, the ants were literally coming out of the woodwork to get to this stuff. ” —Perryo

Get a pack of six from Amazon for $4.89 (available in packs of 1—3).

16.

A pack of Space Saver vacuum bags to make storing your stuff so much easier. And you can use any vacuum cleaner with ’em. Just think of all the things you can make tiny!


BuzzFeed / Maitland Quitmeyer

Promising review: “This is a supreme product. In the past, I’ve tried different kinds of storage bags that promised and NEVER delivered. In some, the plastic was thin and couldn’t be sealed properly. Some product required you to roll the bag in order to get rid of the air, which usually ended up being an unsuccessful hustle. I was desperate to get more closet room and decided to give this product a chance. What a success!” —AA

Promising review: “I have a $120.00 faux fur throw and this one is so much better! I was concerned the lining would be rough but it is super soft. It is luxurious and so soft and cuddly. It is super thick but not heavy. I ordered two and am keeping both. Love this product.” —Kshopper

Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in five sizes, and 21 colors).

Stila’s All Day Waterproof eyeliner, because it doesn’t skip, smudge, or run. Where you put it is where it stays (all day). Plus they come in so many fun colors, you can’t just get one!


Stila

Promising review: “This is the best eyeliner I have yet to try. I went to a water park and spent the whole day there. I got to the hotel and checked my eyeliner and it was still intact! It didn’t fade even a little bit. I haven’t used any other eyeliner since then. It also has the perfect size brush. I love it.” —MV

A soy wax oil candle that’ll last longer than your average candle. Plus, you’ll want multiple once you check out the scent selection! 👀


amazon.com

Lavender, Evergreen, and Holiday Kitchen are my personal faves!

Promising Review: “Everything about these candles is wonderful. Very cool metal container with lid. Burns evenly and for HOURS! Handy laminated instruction card included to teach you about ‘wick maintenance.’ Who knew there was a right and wrong way to maintain your wick? The smell is great, subtly permeating my whole office, creating a wonderfully warm and relaxing atmosphere.” —Carol

Get it from Amazon for $12.95 (available in 19 scents).

22.

A five-pack of makeup-remover cloths to gently and effectively remove all the makeup that’s been soaking into your pores throughout the day. This will help minimize breakouts and also make you feel generally cleaner before bed each night.


amazon.com

A pack of five is great because you can use some for heavier makeup days and some for just day-to-day makeup or even no-makeup days to gently remove residue from throughout the day. If you’re a makeup artist, this is especially helpful if you have clients and want to use a gentle remover that is different from your own.

Promising review: “I was skeptical of these, but now I’m pretty sure they’re what Mulan’s outfit was made of when she wiped her makeup off on her sleeve in the movie. Even totally dry they’re pretty impressive about taking all of my makeup (including waterproof eyeliner and mascara) in a couple swipes. I like to use a little micellar water to make my skin feel a little cleaner. It’s nice not to burn through so many cotton pads.” —Rachaelm

Get a pack of five from Amazon for $6.99 (also available in a pack of five).
