Read more about how biotin shampoo could help with the fullness of hair at Cleveland Clinic. Promising review: "I love this shampoo! I had gastric sleeve surgery, and my hair was very, very thin. I started taking biotin and switched to biotin shampoo, as recommended by my doctor. It doesn’t make your hair grow by washing it, but it makes your hair and roots stronger. And it worked. After I used the whole bottle, my hair was stronger. I had a lot of new growth that was sticking around (the previous new growth fell out early on), and my hair was getting thicker. Eight months later, my hair is back to normal. It's longer and thicker than ever. I still use it twice a week and love it! I don't love the way it smells, but others love it when they smell my hair." —Diane J. Huff Get it from Amazon for $14.95 (available in two scents). All of the shed hair gets stored in the middle of the brush, so just open the chamber and trash your fur baby's hair in the garbage! Promising review: "The best day of my life was the day I adopted my cat. The second best day of my life was when I discovered this product. I never write reviews, but for the first time in my life, I felt compelled to write one to share how fantastic this product is. It’s the age-old story: girl adopts cat, cat sheds, everything girl owns is now covered cat hair, girl tries everything but is unsuccessful, blah blah blah. But this pet hair remover/lint roller contains some type of wizardry that has seriously changed the game. *Chef's kiss* to the creators of this product." —SB Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in three colors). Promising review: "I had five awfully painful plantar warts on my foot for about four months. They were all about a 1/4 inch apart on the ball of my foot, and I had a massive one under my second toe. It was becoming hard to walk with how painful they were. This was a Hail Mary, and it worked phenomenally. The gel coats well right where you apply it. It doesn’t have an awful stench. I applied it every three to four days for a couple of weeks. I noticed the pain was less and less until I didn’t notice any. Last night, I was actually able to pull and peel the remains of the dead warts out!! Kinda gross but kind of cool. Seriously, this product works. If you have annoying warts...this is the answer!!!" —CJ805 Get a kit with the gel and 12 patches from Amazon for $14.79. BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jasmin Sandal is a fan: "I swear by these bad boys not only for general storage purposes, but also if I know I'm going to be traveling for an extended period of time. As someone who tends to pack for every eventuality (who doesn't like to be prepared?!), I have learned that it's better to travel with them than without — especially since it's more or less a guarantee that my clothes are gonna take up a ~substantial~ amount of room in my suitcase. And if I can use something that's gonna shrink the size of my bulky hoodies and/or big tees in order for me to create more space, I'm sure as heck gonna do it. Plus, the satisfaction is indeed guaranteed because when you see those chunky layers flatten into a pancake...it's just *chef's kiss*." Promising review: "Definitely worth the money!!! Good quality plastic bags. I put about 40 items in one [large] bag. Do not fold the sweaters just lay them out flat you'll be able to put more items inside. The jeans just fold them in half lay them flat. Winter coats, pillows, and blankets. 10 bags were just enough for all of my clothes and my son's clothes." —Frankie Johnson Get a six-pack from Amazon for $21.99 (available in four sizes, as well as other multipacks). Caffeine has a number of skincare benefits, including brightening and temporarily reducing the appearance of stretch marks and cellulite, if that's something you're looking to do! You can read more about the skincare benefits of caffeine at the Cleveland Clinic. Promising review: "I am 60, and I could not get rid of the cellulite on my legs. I started using this product six weeks ago and can noticeably see a difference. I apply morning and evening, before bed for optimal results. It goes on smooth and has a creamy, nonsticky feel. The smell is dreamy, and even my husband has commented on the improvement. Make sure you apply in a circular motion for optimal coverage, absorption, and circulation." —Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $24+ (available in three sizes and a refill tub). This is a mildly abrasive cleaning paste, so use with care and go slowly when testing on new surfaces. Simply apply it to the surface with a damp sponge or cloth, give it a few scrubs, and then rinse away with hot water. Promising review: "I’m really impressed with this cleaner. It works great on tough stains and makes surfaces look fresh and clean with very little effort. I’ve used it on kitchen and bathroom surfaces and the results were noticeable right away. A little goes a long way, and the scent is pleasant, not too strong. Definitely a must-have for everyday cleaning." —Narmin Madatli Get it from Amazon for $5.97+ (also available in a bundle with a scrubber sponge). It's super easy to use — just dip the (included) brush in water, apply the cleaning solution to the shoe, then brush and wipe away! Promising review: "I have had my Nike Roshe runs for about a year now, and I don't go easy on them. I play sports and run in the dirt with them all the time, but I also like to wear them for fashion purposes. Pink Miracle helped restore my daily shoes to look like I just bought them — now I can wear them for even longer. Very pleased with Pink Miracle, I will buy it again when I run out of my bottle." —Romario Get it from Amazon for $19.97+ (available in three sizes). Promising reviews: "I saw this on YouTube and immediately wanted to try it. I have curly hair, which I love, but sometimes I just want to put it in a ponytail and go on with my day. This is a time saver for all those little hairs that tend to stick up or don't want to stay in place. I’m not a fan of hairspray, and this even smells nice. I believe it’s a light coconut smell. Overall satisfied, and you don’t need to use much. I took it with me on vacation, and it saved me time in the evening from having to deal with bad hair days." —Blanca Perez "I have 4A-4B curls. When my hair is straight, there are a few spots that are a little frizzier than others, which, to me, isn't a big deal. Some flyaways, however, were the biggest reason why I got this. It lays the baby hairs and is a little bit of a heavier product. I will say, you just have to be careful if you're not used to using heavy product. The first time I used it, I just put a little in my hands and then put it where it was needed." —Jay Promising review: "Didn’t think it would work, but it DID with no scrubbing!! My husband didn’t think our grout was originally white, but I knew better. I put this on before bed on a section of grout in the shower, and woke up to gorgeous and bright white, no scrubbing at all the next morning. Just rinse it off. Absolutely buying another bottle. It wasn’t quite enough for my entire shower, but to be fair, we have a lot of small tiles. I think two bottles will get the whole shower floor. Bravo on a great product." —thekuan Promising review: "Smells great! This face mask does exactly what it says. My skin is nice and lifted, hydrated, noticeable reduction in fine lines, improved texture, reduced pore size, and eliminated some newly developed rough patches forming around the hairline. Couldn't be more satisfied with this product! I have pretty good skin for 37, but this mask has really helped take my skin to the next level." —Samantha Get a box of eight masks from Amazon for $13.98 (also available as a two-pack). Promising review: "So, we have a toilet that belongs to the cats. We don't use it, we don't look at it, we like to pretend it does not exist. Even with semiregular flushing, cat waste is pretty nasty stuff and builds up quickly in the bowl. One of these wands cleaned it up in a single session! Before-and-after pic attached (above)." —Whitney Just presoak feet, apply the gel, let sit for 5–10 minutes, and rinse! Want to know more? Check out our full Lee Beauty Callus Remover write-up! Promising review: "I have the driest heels, and this is the ONLY product that has ever worked. Before I used this, my heels had some pretty deep cracks and now they're almost baby soft again. But please follow the directions.... I left it on my super-dry, thick-callused heels for only three minutes, and the calluses were literally melting off! Wonderful product! So glad I don't have to go soak my feet in those tubs at the nail salon anymore." —Kiki Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three styles and as a two-pack). Promising review: "I’ve used pumice stones, sonic pedicure machines, you name it…I still had thick and hard soles along with dry and scaly heels. I’ve used this foot file for just two days, and I’m speechless. I finally found something to rid my embarrassing feet. It’s the smoothest I’ve seen my feet and heels in decades! Wow!" —FrankSFO Gray hair is still fierce (just look at Jane Fonda) so feel free to let those silvery strands shine! Promising reviews: "This product is awesome. Covers the grays/roots. Stays on all day. Also, if you have thin hair, it will fill in the spots nicely. Comes with a sponge that you unscrew off the bottom. This will last a very long time. This is much easier to use than the spray that doesn't always get the right spots and tends to get on your clothes. A good selection of colors. Great price. Will re-order when the time comes." —Amazon Customer "LOVE! so easy to use and perfect for helping my thinned hairline from postpartum hair loss. I tried a more expensive brand and liked this one more. Definitely recommend it for helping the hairline look fuller. I toss it in my makeup bag and apply quickly ." —Catie B. Get it from Amazon for $17.95 (available in two sizes and 14 colors). Promising review: "Where have these been all my life? We purchased a couple of beautiful charcoal-gray (dyed) sheepskin rugs for both sides of our bed. It used to feel really nice to get out of bed and set your feet on them. But after many years and a couple of dogs, my reaction to putting my feet down is, 'Ew. What the heck did I just step on?' Because of the dye, we can't just wash them or get them too wet. And I'm kind of lazy and forgetful. (Meaning, I've been thinking of taking them to a dry cleaner for years — but how much will that cost?) After our puppy had an accident (the worst kind of accident) on one, I knew I had to do something. These rugs weren't cheap, so tossing them wasn't an option. I cleaned up the 'accident' as best I could, but that left the spot feeling kind of dry and crunchy. So, after reading and googling, I decided to try one of these wire wool brushes. HALLELUJAH! It took some muscle to thoroughly brush each rug, but wow, not only did it re-fluff and revive the wool, but it also pulled up a lot of loose dirt and anything that was stuck to the fibers. I really wish I had gotten this brush sooner!" —Renee New to essences? Try applying this after cleansing but before your moisturizer. Applying it to clean skin and under your moisturizer will help lock in all that snail mucin goodness! Promising review: "This was recommended to me by my daughter and at first I was a little skeptical, especially when she said it has snail mucin. Ewww!! But I tried it and to my surprise it left my skin so soft and supple. I’m in my fifties and I normally do not use over-the-counter products, but because of my daughter’s experience, I decided why not. She typically doesn’t wear much makeup and uses this as her moisturizer. Her skin looks hydrated with a nice glow. I recommend this if you’re looking to try something new. Warning: When you first apply it, it'll have a tacky sensation, but once it absorbs the results are amazing!" —Michael Martinez It comes with a small-dice blade, large-dice blade, spiral blade, and ribbon blade that are interchangeable and gives you the option to chop, slice, and julienne vegetables. Plus, you get a lid with a built-in chop and a storage container to hold the veggies. Promising review: "I have a lot of kitchen gadgets. A lot. When I say this one is life-altering, I’m not kidding. I have used it for all veggies, garlic cloves, cheese, and even pats of butter for my buttermilk biscuits. I put cherry tomatoes in there for a chopped Italian salad and was rendered speechless by the ease. I can chop an entire onion in under 30 seconds. Bottom line: buy it. Worth every penny." —Kevin Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in five colors and also five other styles). Promising review: "I could kick myself for not trying this sooner! It is my new favorite lotion... After one night of using this, I woke up to smooth, soft moisturized skin that wasn’t itchy at all. This lotion goes on and absorbs beautifully. It’s not too thin or thick, and the scent is sensational... It’s not greasy or slick and does not have a residue that pills or transfers." —TickTokAlice Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (also available in two-pack). Reviewers with thin, thick, straight, wavy, curly, and coily (1A—4C) hair types say they *love* this. Promising reviews: "I suck at curling my hair. I’m curl-challenged. I wave my hair often, but sometimes you just want to have that beautiful curled look. Like you really have your life together, you know. This picture is after a spritz and two hour wait. I’m impatient, but the results have me strut 👏🏻 ting 👏🏻 you feel me! I highly recommend. It’s not complicated at all; I did zigzag my part in the back because I heard that helps, and I confer. The back is seamless! I’ve tried the robe tie way but there’s not the same amount of volume I’m getting from this set. BUY THIS PRODUCT!" —Amazon Customer "I really loved them. I have curly 4C hair and straighten it, but I wanted a curly look without more heat damage. They turned out adorable; however, don’t expect it to last longer than a few hours (for curly girls), but 10/10 would recommend." —L Get it from Amazon for $15.98+ (available in 11 colors). Promising review: "Wow. I can’t believe this actually works. This is one of those cases where I wish I had taken a before and after. I found a luxury high-end sportcoat at a thrift store with a sizable wine stain on the front for dirt cheap and thought it would be worth it to take a risk and try to clean it up. I pre-moistened the stain with water, then sprayed a good amount of this product in. Used towels to dry up/blot the area as much I could, hung the sportcoat out to air dry, and crossed my fingers. A few days later, magic. The stain was completely gone. Speechless." —Rob Get it from Amazon for $7.97+ (available in five varieties). Promising review: "I discovered this product from TikTok and I had to give it a try. I tried the day lip plumper and within a few seconds, there was a subtle tingling/burning that lasted for a few minutes but as it occurred, the plumping started to happen! It made a noticeable difference and made my lips look like I had filler! I'm obsessed!! —Amazon Customer And bonus: It reduces puffiness faster if used after refrigeration. Promising review: "This stuff is magic! I purchased this product on a recommendation from a BuzzFeed list, and was not disappointed! I have not been sleeping well due to stress, and the first day I used it, my coworkers commented how well-rested I looked! I told them about it and all of them ordered one for themselves. Very impressed!" —Saminyah Marcelin Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (available in three styles and in larger multipacks). Reviewers say they like this *more* than Smashbox's Becca under eye cream because it's thinner, doesn't settle into fine lines, and is better at brightening. Promising reviews: "Anyone with dark under-eye problems like myself needs to have a brightener! I used to spend $40 on Becca, but this one is better, in my opinion!! It’s very pigmented and covers blue hues in the corners of my eyes. It can be worn alone, but I prefer it under my concealer. It blends incredibly well; it's very creamy and easy to apply. It will probably last me six months — a little dab goes a long way. It’s extremely buildable, too. I am just so in love. I’m a sucker for saving money, and this purchase just saved me over $30. I will recommend to all my friends and family. Just BUY it!" —Caitlin Newcomb "Bought this after seeing an influencer use it on TikTok. This works really well. I can instantly see a difference when I use it under my eyes. For the price, this is a win-win. I had never heard of this brand, but I will be using their products more often." —Kerry C Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in four shades). Promising review: "I'm speechless. So, I got a pair of Doc Martens for my birthday 2 weeks ago, STIFF LIKE A 2X4. I tried them on; they killed my heel and were suffocating my feet. Anyway, I did some research and came across this product. I read a review of someone using them for work boots, so I said hell why not? Got the product today, CHILD LET ME TELL YOU! My boots got looser in less than an hour! Hands down best product I've ever used to stretch any boots!" —Veronica Learn more about the many uses of tea tree oil at Cleveland Clinic. Promising reviews: "I usually use Dr. Bronner's, but I wanted to give this a try after seeing it on TikTok. I actually like this better and feel really clean after using. Love the fresh smell. Also helped an eczema breakout." —KJeanine ATL "This is my favorite body wash ever! I was dealing with some serious postpartum BO, and this saved me! Results from the first use!" —Amazon Customer Promising review: "Prepare yourself emotionally before using this product. I’m speechless. I’m just going to post a picture and go throw up..." —TK72812 Promising review: "This stuff is magic! We've lived in our home for four years now and had never used our jetted tub. One day last week I decided I needed a nice long soak, filled up the tub only to discover the water was rusty and yellow (SICK). I looked up online what the best way to clean a jetted bathtub was, and Oh Yuk came up over and over. Now I know why, this stuff is a miracle worker! We ran it through our tub several times until it was clear. We were so impressed, I purchased another bottle as a housewarming gift for my sister-in-law who is moving into her new house next week. You will not be disappointed, and I'd be shocked if the first words out of your mouth when you use this stuff weren't 'OH YUK'!" —Kimmy D Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in two formulas and two sizes). Promising reviews: "I got this in hopes of lightening my dark inner thighs. It’s been a month of using the bar every time I shower, and I see drastic results already. I was a bit suspicious if this would actually work, but if you are on the fence please take this as a sign to get it and try it out. I’m so excited to see how I look in a few months from now because this thing works, and it works fast!" —puppbear "I started using this product one month ago. I use it all over my body [and] it lightened my underarms just in time for spring. I wish I knew about this sooner." —Michaella Leyein Get a set of two from Amazon for $14.99 (also available in multipacks). Promising review: "I was looking for a new whitening product since I’ve used others in the past that didn’t work that well. I am so happy that I found this one! It really works and in a short amount of time as well. Even just using it a week, I notice a pretty big difference. My teeth had staining from age and coffee, and I needed something immediately but didn’t want to spend a lot of money. The applicator is ver,y very easy to use as well. All you do is paint it on and let it do its magic! Definitely buy this you’ll love it!" —Courtney Mazzola Get it from Amazon for $9.95+ (also available as a one- and four-pack). Promising review: "After seeing this posted everywhere, I finally decided to try it. WOW! I will never use another mascara again. This mascara goes on beautifully. The thickness and darkness of the mascara truly do make it look like you are wearing false lashes. I also love how easily it comes off in the shower with my face wash. It does not leave a smudge. This mascara lasts all day and does not smudge under the eye at all. I have bought this mascara for every girlfriend I have because it left me speechless. Definitely one of my favorite makeup products to date!" —MJK Get it from Amazon for $4.99 (available in four shades). Kit includes: three attachments (flathead, extendable, and brush), carry bag, filter brush, and spare HEPA filter. Promising review: "Speechless. For months, I have been procrastinating on buying this vacuum for my car. Now that I have it in my possession, it works perfectly and does the job. It's light to handle and just a push of a button. Also comes with an extra filter." —Abby Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available with or without a cord). Promising review: "I'm honestly speechless. I didn't even know my curls could look like this. The only difference in my routine was this brush. Worth every penny!" —Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $23.95+ (available in seven colors). This carpet cleaner is from a family-run small business that specializes in cleaning products, especially ones for homes with pets! Promising review: "I live in an apartment so the carpet quality is not the greatest. I had a stain that occurred from a garbage can liner leaking a long line of... I don't know what... across a four-foot piece of carpeting. No home remedies worked. Bought a steam cleaner I had been wanting and this product. I am totally amazed at how well it worked! The stain is gone. I need to add that I had tried EVERYTHING with a lot of elbow grease, and nothing else worked. Whatever it was in my carpet, this product was removed completely after two applications in two days!" —Cat D. Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in three scents and two sizes).
