Promising review: "Love everything about this. The attention to detail and craftsmanship is exquisite! This was a gift to myself as an avid book-lover." —Haley Murph

Get it from Amazon for $209+ (available in two sizes).

Promising review: "Love how this makes my skin feel. I have been using it for three weeks and can tell a difference in my face. But the real surprise came from the difference I saw on the top of my hands. I usually take the product and mix it on the top of my hand, then apply it to my face. Well, my 60-year-old hands are plumper and look more refreshed. So if it’s doing that to my hand, then it’s great for my face." —Dally

Get it from Amazon for $16.90 (available in four other styles).

Check out a TikTok of the foaming pink drain cleaner in action. 

Promising review: "Wow! I don't think I've ever been more excited to use a cleaning product before. Who knew you could get so much satisfaction from a drain cleaner. I could probably make an ASMR video and post it, as it is that satisfying! Even though I had to angle this over my sink drain, to avoid the low faucet, it worked perfectly. The foam went down the drain and up through the overflow, bringing lots of black, yucky gunk with it. I have used lots of drain cleaners before, but not one that actually came up through the overflow. I'd never even considered what stuff was in there. It did a great job of cleaning everything out and it left the sink smelling fresh and clean as well." —Amazon Customer 

You'll get one of seven pretty sick designs. Also, you'll need a 1GB–128GB TF memory card, since one is not included in the package. 

This camera is inspired by the 1987 Kodak Fling, the company's first signature single-use camera!

Promising review: " It's such a fun and simple design that you really will be taking photos of everything with it when you first get it." —Hannah Vo

Tip: Make sure you run warm water on the mold when taking the ice out. Let it thaw for about 5–10 minutes, and the ice ring will pop right out.

Promising review: "This ice mold is a must-have for any host. It’s a simple addition to any event that just takes it to another level. There are endless ways of creating a look to match any occasion. I can’t wait to get creative with each use. Easy to use and it actually works, keeping your wine or champagne chilled while out! The ice bucket doesn’t display the company’s name, which I like. All my guests love it, and compliments flow just like the wine!" —El Water Pumps

The water-resistant light comes with a replaceable lithium battery.

Promising review: "So glad I found these. I have one on my apartment key and another on my mailbox key. They really work well, especially in low lighting. Since my vision is no longer perfect, these lights save me time so I don’t have to fumble trying to get my key into the locks. I definitely recommend them. I have a spare for replacement, but they last a long time." —Marni

Reviewers say they don't stain the tub if you clean up immediately after. And the flasks are reusable!

Tub Works is a small business that makes fun, non-toxic bath products for kids.

Promising reviews: "Order these! These were such a fun time. It's now going to be a staple for us for bathtime fun. 10 out of 10 hands-down. Each bottle takes a surprisingly long time, and you get so many bubbles." —lgiffer

"These things are amazing. The colors are extremely vibrant, yet no staining on the tub or my son’s skin, and the foam reaction just keeps going and going and doesn’t lose its intensity. If it does slow down or stop, you just pour a little more warm water and it starts again full force. The reaction lasted for the entirety of my son’s bath." —Katelyn

Promising review: "Two weeks ago, I didn’t even know stone bath mats existed! But wow! What a game changer! I’m one of those people that avoid my cloth bath mat when it’s wet. Because eww! Now, I can take a shower right after my husband and not have to worry about stepping on a wet bath mat. The stone absorbs the water so fast! Can’t wait to upgrade my other bathroom mats." —Angela

And if you currently have FOMO over those Dunkin' iced coffee buckets that are apparently only in Massachusetts and New Hampshire, well...this could help.

Promising review: "These are so good! If you like coffee, lattes, and such, buy this and enjoy! Fresh-tasting and reasonably priced." —DMS

They work like little syringes to neatly suck up the paint from the can. Because they're completely airtight, the paint lasts for years without drying out! They *are* refillable, despite what some reviewers claim; here's how.

Slobproof is the woman-owned small biz that sells these genius touch-up paint pens!

Promising review: "I love, love, love these. A variation of these may have been around for years, but I’ve never run across them. Saw these on BuzzFeed and ordered immediately. I was so excited to get them and start finally being able to cover up scratches on my walls, and marks from chairs being pushed into the walls, and other mishaps. These flaws were slowly getting on my nerves, but I really didn’t want to get out the paint brush, paint tray, etc. These paint syringes were exactly what I needed and worked like a charm. Awesome product!" —*Sparkle*

Curlinator Designs is a North Carolina-based small family biz that specializes in hair accessories.

Promising review: "Love it!!! I was concerned I wouldn't be able to figure out how to use it, but videos make understanding simple. So much easier to use in the mornings than fixing your hair in a bun!!!" —bld9

Get it from Curlinator Designs on Etsy for $12.75 (available in 18 colors).

Promising review: "Saw Urban Outfitters had a tomato lamp for $100 and said hell naw. But then this lamp came along from the Amazon gods for $30 and no way I could pass up such a sick lamp. Smaller than anticipated but is immaculate. Runs almost everyday/all day and has been doing great for a year now. After a few hours, it automatically goes to the strobing setting. Remote has never failed me yet (knock on wood)." —Samantha L.

Promising review: "Do not hesitate to try this product if you have a hard skin problem on your feet. It takes a few days to see a difference, but now I can see a change. Just like that, the skin on my pinky toe is not rock solid anymore. Bye bye, pain — and I am not joking." —Majda

JW Pei is an Asian-, family-owned brand with minimalist purses that are made with sustainable vegan materials.

Promising review: "I absolutely love these sandals! The block heel gives the perfect amount of height without being too high, and the mule style makes them easy to slip on and off. The white color is crisp and clean, and they look great with so many different outfits. Plus, they're really comfortable — I can wear them all day without any pain or discomfort. Overall, I highly recommend these sandals to anyone looking for a stylish and comfortable pair of shoes! 🤍" —Mo

Get them from Amazon for $89 (available in women's sizes 5–11 and 11 colors).

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says, "Our family 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: "The Flavacol popcorn seasoning is unbeatable. Just a small sprinkle gives that classic movie‑theater flavor, and the 35-ounce size lasts forever. It blends perfectly with hot popcorn and makes every batch taste richer and more buttery. A must‑have for anyone who loves making popcorn at home. The texture is amazing, the salt is on point, and it's a great value for money." —Jiovanni

Promising review: "I saw on TikTok this Korean beauty influencer that I follow, and pretty much buy all her skincare products. This was one of the products that she actually used on one of her clients who had very large pores. It’s been a month, and my pores have shrunk, my face is so much clearer, and I know I’m gonna buy this product again." —jessica aquino lopez

Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (also available in a vitamin illuminating serum). 

Promising review: "Saved me $140. The right AirPod was extremely muffled, and nothing I tried worked. Prime Day was coming up, so I decided I’d just get a new pair. But this came across my recommended products, so I decided maybe I’d try it out and see if it works. I had no hopes. But I cleaned and now they sound almost as great as when I got them two years ago. Saved me money. Highly recommend this for any AirPod owner." —Hira Khan

Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (available in two colors). 

Note: This covers all the eras through The Tortured Poets Department!

Promising review: "This is such an amazing creation. You can tell the illustrator put in SO MUCH WORK into researching the Tay universe and capturing absolutely every detail possible of her entire career. I gasped at the, 'No, it's Becky' reference! A job very well done. I am so happy I purchased this!!" —Alexia Pitman

Promising review: "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

Get a pack of three from Amazon for $10 (also available in a cloud style).

Promising review: "I received this on a Thursday with rather aggressively chapped lips. By Friday night, my lips were considerably less chapped and much more comfortable. By Saturday night, my lips were no longer chapped at all and very moisturized. While out tonight (Sunday night) I had a friend ask if I have had something done to my lips because they look so full!!! They are soft and moisturized and I feel like they have been revived from this cold dry winter! 100/10 recommend!" —Gordon S. 

Get it from Amazon for $15+ (available in a pink raspberry scent or blue unscented). 

Shining Colors By Mary is a small Etsy shop making cute and fun custom shirts!

Promising review: "My DND husband wore this out, and his friends want one now! 😌" —Nicole Goss

Get it from Shining Colors By Mary on Etsy for $17.49+ (available in unisex adult sizes S–2XL, youth sizes S–L, and in eight colors).

Promising review: "Love this lamp so much! So easy to put together, and love that they give gels to create your own little mix-and-match of color. The lights are pretty bendy and don’t get too hot even after hours of use (you can still touch and bend them without getting burned). VERY bright light but creates a great wash for ambient reflective lighting." —Max Ferg

Promising review: "I wasn’t sure what to expect when I ordered this, but wow — it’s a total game changer! The texture is silky and lightweight, and it applies so smoothly without feeling sticky or heavy. I love that it’s a peel-off mask, but it still feels nourishing, like a night cream. After just a few uses, I noticed my skin looking plumper, firmer, and much more hydrated. The dullness I usually see in the mornings has completely disappeared – instead, I wake up with a healthy, glass-skin glow. It also makes my skin feel so soft and smooth that my makeup goes on flawlessly the next day." —Ramanpreet Khurana

Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping writer Amber Usher has to say: "This is the first time I've ever seen a product like this. It's like a milky toner for your body, but it smells DIVINE. It has notes of vanilla bean, cedarwood, and Italian bergamot. To me, it smells like toasted marshmallows. It's not a sticky sweet smell; it has a slightly smoky depth to it from the cedarwood, so it's like sexy marshmallows? It's actually very moisturizing. I apply it after my lotion, and it absorbs very easily and leaves a lovely sheen on your skin. You don't need a lot, and it truly does last all day, too."

Promising review: "This scent is one of the best fragrances I have smelled in a while! It definitely stays on longer than the regular fragrance. It also smells a little different than the perfume, in the best way possible. The scent is very warm and smokey with notes of almost palo santo or incense. I want this scent in a candle, hair products, real incense, literally anything!!" —Dani

Promising review: "This is amazing! Such great flavor for salads." —Louise

These are made without harmful substances and are certified for indoor air quality. 

Promising review: "I couldn't be happier with this purchase! The paper incense exceeded all my expectations. The quality is outstanding, and it works even better than the description. It arrived quickly, was well-packaged, and easy to use. Smells great and burns well. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for paper incense." —Kim

Get it from Amazon for $14 (available in eight scents).

Promising review: "This product is something I didn’t know I needed. It’s like the creator crawled into my soul and found the deepest desire of my heart and then invented it. If you think I’m being dramatic, you should try soggy cereal and then eat cereal from THIS bowl. I’ll take 30 more, please, and hand them out as gifts." —Sarah F.

Get a set of three from Amazon for $19.99 or a single bowl for $9.99. 

Promising review: "The timer works wonderfully [and] you don’t have to worry about blowing out the candle." —Linda Camhi

Get it from Ulta for $19.50 (available in four shades). 

Promising review: "I bought this after I saw a video on TikTok, so I had an idea about the yummy waffles I could make. First waffles were stuffed with apple pie filling. Second ones scrambled eggs with bacon and cheese. Just amazing!!! The only way you could make this better is to send a chef!! I definitely recommend watching a video on TikTok or YouTube to inspire you before you start!!" —Adirondackdarling

Promising review: "I love these bulbs. They make any room all warm and cozy. Also a fantastic night-light for the little ones. :) Get you some!" —Amazon Customer
