Seriously though, there’s a reason everyone’s been obsessed with Clinique’s Black Honey lip balm for decades.

Here's what fellow Shopping writer Emma Lord has to say:" I was very adamant about not buying this for the longest time because I am stubborn about 'expensive' beauty products, but this is worth every penny and then some. It's so lightweight and layerable, it's foolproof to apply, and I have yet to wear a single outfit it doesn't complement??? I love watching it instantly elevate a casual look or add simple elegance to dressy ones. I wear it every day now, and after weeks of use, I've barely made a dent. Also, and maybe this is just me, but I tend to get pigment on my teeth with a lot of lip products, and I've simply never had an issue with this magic stick."

Anyway, watch this TikTok of someone using it on their lips AND cheeks, because I did, and oops, this lipstick FELL into my cart. 

Promising review: "I struggled with acne for over 12 years. I tried medications, pretty much every skincare line out there, but thanks to a random girl on TikTok, I found this product and will never go back. This is the only serum that has helped clear my scars! I never write reviews, but because I noticed a difference within days of using it, I had to write one. I’m only on month two, and I have seen a noticeable difference. My skin looks clear/lighter/glowing/young for the first time since my preteen years. I use this vitamin C serum and a simple wash and moisturizer/sunscreen every day, and that’s it!" —Rebekah

K18 is a small business that specializes in hair products. 

To use, wash your hair with shampoo and not conditioner. Towel dry your hair and apply the hair mask, leaving it for four minutes. Then style as usual without rinsing. 

Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Melanie Aman says about it: "I bleach my dark brown-black Asian hair blonde every six to eight weeks, so I was immediately intrigued when I first heard some stylists at my salon raving about K18. I was gobsmacked at how much softer my hair was. Seriously. I spent the whole day touching my hair, and even my boyfriend agreed that my mane was noticeably silkier. Olaplex was my go-to before I tried K18 and I still stand by it as a product, but I really love that K18 is a leave-in treatment rather than an in-shower mask. Having to let the Olaplex sit for 10 minutes felt like forever, especially when I wasn't taking an everything shower (you know, the ones where you exfoliate and shave). With K18, you let it sit in your hair for four minutes post shower to activate and then you can style your hair (or just let it air dry like I do). I've found that my hair is softest the next day, so don't be discouraged if your hair looks or feels the same the day you use it."

Promising review: "My hair stylist recommended this product for my hair and it was such a superior product to anything else I have used. It is expensive and I have long hair so it is doubly expensive, but so worth it. As I aged my hair became really frizzy and dry, but this product changed everything, leaving my hair so manageable, silky, soft, body and no frizz. I cannot say enough good things about K18." —Dawne

Jerome Alexander is a small business that specializes in airbrush cosmetic products. 

Here's what fellow Shopping writer Emma Lord has to say: "HELLO — I found this through a recommendation on a Reddit beauty forum for people in their thirties, and I am OBSESSED. I am not very skilled with makeup and was intimidated by the brush factor, but it's nearly foolproof. This foundation straight-up glosses over my pores and redness and makes my skin look so even-toned and natural that it doesn't look like I used much foundation at all. It's a bit price-y compared to brands I used in the past, but I'm still on my first bottle of it, and it's been three full months. I hope this never stops getting made. It is so lightweight and lovely and has made my makeup routine feel like a TREAT." 

Promising review: "Bought this because I saw it on TikTok, and it did not disappoint. I love the lightweight feel of it and how easy it is to build." —Smickens

Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (available in 12 shades). 

Promising review: "I work in a laboratory so I am constantly surrounded by lots of sounds varying in pitch and frequency which can be very overwhelming, especially for someone with noise sensitivities. I have had many people recommend these to me, so I decided to give them a try. I so happy I did! When I put these in it feels like I’m coming into my peaceful little bubble. They allow me to have a higher tolerance of noise and have overall reduced my stress and overstimulation of the environment I’m in. It seems like they do a good job at blocking out noises I personally find the most distressing (ie. high pitched, constant noises)." —Makayla

Get it from Amazon for $35.95. (Available in seven colors; check out Loop's Amazon Storefront for more options related to concerts, offices, and parenting!)

Touchland is a small business that specializes in hand sanitizers. 

Promising review: "Touchland's hand sanitizers are absolutely beautiful! Not only is the packaging functional for travel, but it’s pretty! Absolutely no issues with the product or the design of the packaging leaking, and it’s extremely easy to use! No sticky residue, and your hands feel completely hydrated and soft after each use. I’m especially impressed with this perk, considering most hand sanitizers leave your skin feel tight and dry. No leaks, great hydration, phenomenal fragrance…. what’s not to LOVE!!!? 🤍 SPOIL YOURSELF, NO EXCUSES NECESSARY!" —Briana R. 

Get it from Amazon for $16 (available in Lily of the Valley and Rose scents; check out Touchland's Amazon storefront for more options). 

Promising review: "Okay! So I was skeptical at first, but honestly, this stick is life-changing!!! In a matter of minutes, my skin felt hydrated and plumped. After an hour, still hydrated. No greasy after-feeling, very light, and you can feel your skin hydrated and absorbing. I love the fact that you can use it on your eyes, lips, and wrinkles!! Game changer for me, will def try the others!" —Kristy

Hatch Restore lets you personalize a "bedtime routine" for each night to train your brain to recognize sleep cues and get a better night's rest. Options include changing the light settings to more amber tones, soothing noise options, and sleep meditations and sleep stories you can get in the Hatch app.

Promising review: "The Hatch Restore 2 is truly a game changer for those looking to improve their night’s sleep and wake-up routine. It’s been the best bedside companion and has improved my overall health and well-being. The combination of sounds, lights, buttons, and aesthetics really all come to play to make this feel like a truly premium device. There are touch adjustments to adjust the volume and brightness of the clock, which work really well. My favorite feature is the physical buttons, which you can press to start or stop the routines; it feels very intentional when I get ready for bed and really gets me in the right mindset to begin my bedtime routine." —Natasha Advani

Get it from Amazon for $169.99 (available in three styles). 

Promising review: "So let me start by saying I have used nearly every eyeshadow primer available. From high-end to low-end, they don't hold a candle to Thank Me Later. I have very oily skin. Using this primer, shadow lasts a full eight hours or more. I could get maybe five or six out of the other brands if I were lucky. I got this as a sample in my Ipsy bag, and I had to buy the full-size product straight away! I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Thank you, Elizabeth Mott, for finally making a primer that lasts! I love this stuff!" —Melissa Mae

"Saw this used by a makeup artist on TikTok giving a tutorial for women over 40. Totally changed how my eyeshadow works. No clumping or crease lines!" —wo1995

Most reviewers recommend doing this treatment once per week. 

Promising review: "Caught wind of this on TikTok and decided to give it a whirl. Honestly, it’s pretty solid! It really makes my skin look tight and shiny, like I just came out of a professional facial. It’s an overnight mask, so yeah, it does have to stay on for a while, which is a bit of a hassle, but the payoff? Totally worth it. My skin feels more elastic, and the pores look minimized, too. If you don’t mind the long wear time, this mask could be a game changer for your skincare routine!" —Nala

Promising review: "I don’t write reviews often unless I really love something, and let me tell you, this sleep mask is AMAZING. I’m a night shift nurse and was on the hunt for a good sleep mask. I’m mainly a stomach sleeper and an occasional side sleeper, and nothing I found was working. Until I found the Drowsy mask!! I was hesitant because of the price tag… but it is worth every penny! Invest in your sleep! This mask is 100% blackout, the silk is soft and luxurious, and it doesn’t put any pressure on my nose. I can sleep on my stomach comfortably with this mask on, and it doesn’t move. The strap is also adjustable and very comfortable. If you need a sleep mask, look no further, this is the one to get!" —Jolene Wahl

Learn more about different kinds of eye drops and what they can do at Cleveland Clinic. Note that eye drops can potentially mask symptoms of eye conditions, so you should talk to your eye doctor about what's right for you. And according to Mayo Clinic, you should avoid redness-reducing drops if you're looking for dry eye relief.

Promising review: "I have a big spot of blood vessels in the inner corner of my left eye. I use the expensive lubricant eye drops for moisture — I've used Visine, Clear Eyes, you name it. No eye drop has made my eyes look this great. Only Lumify! I was soo happy when I looked in the mirror and saw some beauty in my eyes instead of darkness and redness." —Angela Leonard

Promising review: "This is one of my favorite beauty products. Feels good under the eyes and brightens them up. I think I look more rested when I’m wearing it, and it gives a nice glow. Great product to keep in your purse!" —Rachel S. 

Caraway is a small business that specializes in cookware and prepware for the home. Check out a TikTok of the Caraway set in action. 

Each set includes a fry pan, sauce pan with lid, sauté pan with lid, Dutch oven with lid, modular pan rack, and three-slot canvas lid holder.

Promising review: "I bought this set for my younger sister as she was using my mom’s old pans. I’ve had my set in Navy Blue for over a year and love them! Some stuff may stick a little in the pan while cooking, but it comes right off when you wash it. They are heavier than normal pots and pans, but you can get used to them after using them every day. A great set for people who cook every day!" —CountryHolly

Get the 12-piece set from Amazon for $445+ (available in eight colors). 

Here's what fellow Shopping writer Emma Lord has to say: "I use this on my skin and definitely have noticed results! While it didn't help kick my all of stubborn pre-period hormonal acne, it has done *wonders* with reducing redness on my face, particularly around my nose, and in dealing with my pores. Since I started using it, my primer and foundation goes on a whole lot smoother, and I'm struggling a whole lot less to cover my pores. After using it a few weeks, I read the advice of one reviewer to put this on when your face is slightly moist from washing, rub it in, let it dry, and then put your moisturizer on top of it — I've found that it's what got me the best results!" 

Promising review: "My skin dries out severely during the winter all the time, and I have to constantly use Vaseline to keep it moisturized (normal cream doesn't work on me). Imagine my surprise when my SO tried to put snail goo on me, eww!! I resisted for weeks, refusing to use this product as she constantly vouched for its abilities. After a month I finally gave in, and boy it is amazing! My hands feel more moisturized than ever for longer and it doesn't leave a disgusting greasy feel as Vaseline. Take it from a once nonbeliever, you have to try this. Even if it doesn't work for you, you paid a fraction of what you would've paid for any other name-brand moisturizers." —Kyoko Ozaki

Promising review: "Because I have hated just about every facial sunscreen (especially you, Supergoop, lol) I’ve ever tried, the price for this product is honestly worth it. Doesn’t feel greasy, oily, or silicone-y. Doesn’t leave a white cast. Doesn’t have a strong odor. It really just feels like I’m putting another layer of moisturizer on. If I go out with only this SPF with no makeup, my skin looks nice, dewy, and moisturized, but never oily or greasy. Most importantly, this keeps my rosacea in check!" —Christina Chetwood

While some reviewers with curlier hair (3a–4c) said this product worked well for styling, smoothing, and defining, the majority of positive reviews came from people with straighter or wavier hair types.

Dae is a small business that specializes in haircare and styling products. 

Promising review: "This is the second time I've bought this product. It might seem pricey, but honestly, it's not. I used it every day for my slicked-back ponytail, and it lasted me a long, long time. It smells amazing. It holds really well without making your hair feel crusty or greasy. It actually feels natural and soft." —Pedro ramos

Reviewers with dietary restrictions and preferences love being able to customize their own treats, and many point out that this will likely *save* you money, with the cost of specialty ice creams these days! 

Promising review: "This is my favorite gift. I use it at least five times a week. The size of the containers is perfect for when you want a sweet treat, and I love that you can control the consistency and softness of the way they come out. Fairly easy to clean as well." —Luke Johnson 

Promising review: "I am so obsessed with this smell, it is by far my favorite. It's also very long-lasting! I get so many compliments, and people asking what I'm wearing. Will over and over purchase again." —Taylor

Read more about how to choose a weight and what these blankets help with and how from Cleveland Clinic.

Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping Writer Emma Lord has to say: "I've been using this weighted blanket for about three years now, and what I find really remarkable about it is that I *never* feel overheated in it. It's also just so, SO soft, and looks absolutely beautiful at the foot of my bed where I leave it every night. It definitely helps me activate "sleep mode" at night — I find the weight very comforting and not at all stifling because it spreads so evenly."

Promising review: "I’m in love with this blanket! It is absolutely gorgeous and has made a remarkable difference in my sleeping habits. If you are even thinking about a weighted blanket, this is a MUST! Just do it! You will only wish you’d done it sooner!" —Sandy 

Psst — to choose a style, Bearaby recommends a blanket that is about ten percent of your body weight. 

Get it from Bearaby for $179+ (available in four weights and nine colors). 

Promising review: "I have been using this product for years and reorder every time the jar starts to get low. Love the consistency and how great my hands feel in the morning. Definitely recommend." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I rarely — I don't think ever — rave about a hair product, but this is an exception. I got it to smooth out the frizzies in my hair, and it performed above and beyond my expectations. I'm not a fan of the price, but I'll keep buying it because it's worth it. I highly recommend this product!" —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $30 (also available in a $14 travel size). 

Psst — you can also get this in an "extra strength" version and a curly hair version! 

Honeydew is a small business that specializes in uniquely-designed sleep products. 

Promising review: "I have searched for a perfect pillow for many months, and finally found this one. I LOVE this pillow. It is soft yet supportive, and the shape is perfect for side sleeping. It is expensive, true, but I think well worth the price. The fill used is wonderful compared to shredded or molded memory foam. It feels like down but with more neck support, and not at all lumpy. I like to hug the side extensions which provide support for my upper body when sleeping on my side. I totally recommend this pillow for side sleepers. You won't be disappointed." —Elizabeth Wright 

Get it from Amazon for $199.99+ (available in Queen and King sizes). 

Promising review: "Laneige lip balm lives up to the TikTok hype. The Gummy Bear scent is awesome. Don't need to constantly reapply because the formula is moisturizing. Definitely will order other scents." —Charlotte T.

Get it from Amazon for $19 (available in eight flavors and multipacks). 

Promising review: "I bought this as a gift for my husband. He truly loved it. The needle is very good, and the sound quality is wonderful. It can play records, cassettes, CDs, and the radio. It can also connect via Bluetooth. So many ways to play music. It is easy to use. The value was amazing. It is a little heavy, but the box is very sturdy, and I expect it to last a long time." —MAREBARE

Get it from Amazon for $136.99+ (available in six styles).   

Promising review: "I've been looking for a carry-on replacement for some time. My last carry-on was from 2007, so it was super old and not very good. Now that I have my July Carry On, I couldn't be more pleased. It's so good from functionality to style. I love the laundry bag — it's great that I don't have to remember to take my own separate laundry bag with me anymore — and the charging is so useful. The wheels are silent and smooth — so much so that on the slightest decline, the bag will 100% roll away from you. The bumpers are a bit scratched after some use, but it's hardy/designed to protect what's inside, and I accept that there will be some of that happening on long-haul flights. I really enjoy the personalization as well — I had my name and a little frog etched on the top — so cute!" —Ameeka N.

Get it from July for $295 (available in 15 colors; plus you can add personalization for $50).

Promising review: "I normally don’t write reviews. However, if I could give this pressure cooker a 10 out of 5 stars, I would. So far, I’ve cooked a whole chicken, beans and rice, working on baby rack ribs, and a few other things. The best feature is that all the dishes I’ve cooked have taken no more than one hour. I have yet to try vegetables, but parsnips are in the near future, as are beets. Only criticism would be to invest in some kind of trivet to keep the meat you’re cooking out of the liquid. Planning on some lamb shanks in the very near future." —Amazon Customer

Adaptive Sound Technologies is a small business established in 2009 specializing in sound technology for personal care. 

Psst — it's compatible with speakers *and* headphones, so if you're sharing the room, you don't have to subject your partner to it.

Promising review: "I have suffered from insomnia all my life, and have found that if I fall asleep listening to something, I sleep better. I tried falling asleep to the TV, but invariably around 3 a.m., I would wake up listening to infomercials. Then, while traveling, my husband and I stayed in a very nice hotel that had this product in our room. I tried it, and slept like a baby the whole time we were there! I knew I had to have one at home, and ordered this as soon as we got home. I love that it has so many different sounds to choose from, as well as volume adjustment. You can leave it on all night or set the timer to shut off. This is a fantastic product, and while not inexpensive, in my opinion, well worth the money." —Tamstrat

Promising review: "Holy moly! Best toast I have ever made. I did a comparison taste test with the Balmuda toaster versus my cheapie $60 toaster oven. You can really taste the difference in the toast with the texture and the moisture of the inside of the toast. Hands down, Balmuda blew my other toaster out the water. So happy with purchase." —JL
