1. The complete set of Ariel and Sisters from Mattel that's maybe technically for children, but you better believe it's on my own wishlist. They didn't have a set with ALL the sisters when we were kids! We deserve this. And oof, do I want it.
Promising review: "Just the fact that you get all seven sisters in this pack is amazing to me! Disney doesn’t always release Little Mermaid items with all of them so this is definitely a must have! The dolls have some amazing face sculpts and just the basic arm and hip articulation but their tails have an added knee articulation that allows for beautiful poses or swimming action fun! Their bottom fins are made out of this type of material that when played with in water make it look like it’s actually moving through the water! The price isn’t too bad considering you are getting seven beautiful, detailed dolls!" —Shellby
Get it from Amazon for $99.99.
2. A RobeCurls heatless hair curler — just slightly dampen your hair and then curl your strands around the satin-covered rod. After that? Sleep soundly and dream of the beautiful, bouncing curls you're gonna wake up to the next morning!
Watch this TikTok and see how to get curls with the RobeCurls fast if you don't have time to wait overnight.

Promising review: "WOW!!!!! I can’t believe how well this works!!! I’ve seen this all over Instagram and TikTok, and wanted to try it. It’s so easy to put in, takes about a minute or two. Comfortable to sleep in. Then, you take it out, and it looks like you put all this effort into doing your hair. The curls turned out gorgeous, I’m so impressed!!" —Katie Porter
Get it from Amazon for $27.99 (available in five colors).
3. A rolling egg dispenser sure to become the practical purchase you didn't know you needed. This saves a surprising amount of space in your fridge *and* makes snatching an egg a cinch thanks to, weirdly enough, gravity.
Check out a TikTok of the egg storage roller in action.
YouCopia is a woman-owned small business that specializes in home storage solutions.
Promising review: "Here it is! The best egg container on Amazon! How can I say that? Easy! Engineering! The slight tilt angle on the bottom of the container that the egg drawer sits on forces eggs to lightly roll forward, keeping all your eggs in the front, and never in the back, where you don't need them. It's super easy to use, so easy to clean, comes apart and can hold a full can organizer on top without issue, so no issues with sturdiness. It can easily hold 14 large size eggs. Easily one of my favorite purchases." —Karingan
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
4. A Shark Tank hit, the "Little Elf" gift wrap cutter for folks who would love a tool that makes gift wrapping a cinch! Use it for measuring and creating perfectly straight slices across your (TBH *too* expensive) wrapping paper. This is so much easier than a pair of scissors.
This small business is called Little Elf. It started in 2019 and has a specialized focus on gift wrapping tools and accessories.

5. A teeth-whitening pen — simply brush the product onto your teeth and watch those coffee stains disappear! Each pen lasts up to 20 uses and you should expect your teeth to lighten four to eight shades.
Promising review: "I’ve had stained teeth from drinking coffee for over 50 years. I tried brushing after having my daily coffee and even used professional solution in a tray but nothing worked. I used the AsaVea pen twice the first day and saw immediate results. After a week of using the pen as directed twice a day, I’m proud to smile!" —Amazon Customer
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $14.97.
6. A portable blender for people who basically have to trick themselves into eating a balanced breakfast. This water-bottle sized *blender* can charge on the go. So, no matter how big of a rush you're in, you can blend the ingredients, swap out the lid, and drink straight from the bottle. Breakfast is served!
Promising review: "Yes, I did it. I bought the TikTok blender and don't regret it one bit. I can create any smoothie I want, from healthy to dessert shakes for the kids. So easy to use, charge and clean. It's a must-buy!!!" —Debby from Warren
Get it from Amazon for $35.80 (available in four colors).
7. A Bearaby Cuddler you can prop up on the side of your bed, letting you snuggle up with something extra comfy as you drift off into dreamland.
I have this! I'm loving it as I'm getting through my second trimester, but I got my own Bearaby Cuddler several months ago, before even thinking about having a baby. I specifically wanted it to prop me up in bed when I read, and because I like holding onto a pillow and having one between my knees when I sleep. I also got the cover and am so glad I did! It makes the pillow look luxe so I can keep it on my made bed. I highly recommend getting this!
Get it from Bearaby for $199 (also available with cover).
8. A set of waterproof globe lights that'll look lovely strung around your fire pit or placed across your porch. Treat yourself to late night summertime vibes and get these lights, I promise it'll be a *bright* idea.
Promising review: "We strung these beauties around our backyard fire pit and wow do they look great! Although the fire lights up the night, too, I like having the lights lit around the perimeter of the firepit patio area. Often times we'll turn them on even when we're not lighting a bonfire, just because they make the backyard look so pretty and inviting." —Michelle Smith
Get a strand from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in six styles and five sizes).
9. An *electric* adjustable standing desk with *gorgeous* solid wood details sure to make you feel right at home in your home office. It's SO hard to find office furniture that doesn't look stagnant or stale. This ~wood~ certainly be a game changer in your place!
Mopio is a small business located in California.
Promising review: "I searched high and low for a good quality stand/sit desk at a good price. I almost settled on one of the particle board options that comes in segments, but I really didn't like that idea. Pretty far down the search results, I found this item with a solid wood top at a great price. Assembly was easy, it's quite well-built, heavy, stable, and elevating or lowering is smooth and consistent. I felt like this might be one of those items that is too good to be true, but it's not! Their customer service is also great. I contacted them with a question, and they promptly responded. The listing showed as a local business, after a quick search I found a listing in California for this company. For me, that is another plus." —Lutrus
Get it from Amazon for $379.99+ (available in two sizes and colors).
10. A "Shower Cat" for long-hair-havers who, like me, spend half their time in the shower making hair art on the walls, which inevitably ends up clogging the drain (ahem, sorry for the over-share). This makes catching your hair *much* easier and gives it a proper place while you finish sudsing up.
Shower Cat is a small business established in 2021 specializing in products to prevent shower clogs.
Promising review: "I first saw this product on TikTok and I knew immediately that I needed it. I just moved into a new apartment and I didn’t want to be how I used to be, where I’d just let hair go down the drain and plug it eventually, or peel it off of the drain after each shower. It works great but I probably need some practice with it. I currently just floss my hair through it so it will hold them and there are a few stray hairs that don’t stick. I would recommend to anyone who is tired of putting your loose strands of hair on the shower wall." —Cari Schwartzkopf
Get it from Amazon for $14.95.
11. A clip-on polarized sun visor is gonna be loved by commuters who knew there had to be a better solution than squinting into the sunset on their way home from work every day. Clip the extender onto your existing sun visor and you're gonna get polarized glare-reduction all the live-long day.
Glare Guard is a small business based in Easton, Pennsylvania creating polarized visors for glare-free driving.
Promising review: "This extender is great; I wish I had purchased this years ago. My daily commute to work is due east and the sun is directly in my line of sight. My commute home is just the opposite, due west and the sun is blinding. This extender is not only a great buy, but it also increases the safety of daily driving." —Dyann Curtis
Get it from Amazon for $34.99.
12. A Shark Tank-favorite Click & Carry Grocery Bag Carrier that'll give you Herculean strength in an instant. Hook your bags to the clip, place it around your shoulder, and lift up to *80 pounds!!!* without bag straps literally breaking your back.
Click & Carry is a Shark Tank and QVC-featured small business that specializes in easy carry accessories.
Promising review: "TikTok made me buy it. This is great when you have a few bags and a box — for example, if you balance the bags, you can throw it over your shoulder and walk inside and have two free hands to carry the box, which is great. Product seems well built, and is comfortable on your shoulder or hand because of the padding." —Hung
Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in six colors).
13. A floral flush mount ceiling light with gold details and glass flower petals. This piece is so lovely it's likely gonna make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside every time you flip on your light switch.

Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in two sizes).
15. "The Clean Ball" — throw this cat toy-lookin' thing into your purse or backpack, and it'll catch all the crumbs and debris that accumulate at the bottom. I sure wish I'd known about this gizmo before going through my homemade granola phase.
Promising reviews: "Best invention! I purchased after seeing it in a TikTok video, and it works soooo well in my purse." —Wenhether
"This little ball is genius!! Rolls around in my purse, which I live out of. It picks up a lot of lint, debris, or even crumbs. Easy to find with the bright pink. Just remove and wash and it’s ready to go again. The price was great and something I can use for years. If you live out of your purse this a must-have!!" —dj3biggs
Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (available in three colors and one multi-pack).
16. A tall table-cooler combo for keeping all the drinks and snacks you could possibly want by the fire pit, rather than risk having to go back into the house to grab a beer. Who wants to go back inside when the stars are OUTSIDE?!
Promising review: "Have gotten so many compliments on this already. Great even when not using as a cooler for just a functional end table near our furniture around the fire pit. Can put drinks on there, s'mores stuff, etc. It's nice because it functions as a table without being big and bulky. It can easily be moved around to where it is needed. and the cooler function of course is what sets it apart from all other tables and makes it awesome!" —Amy M.
Get it from Amazon for $83.96+ (available in two colors).
17. An unnecessarily chic handheld vacuum that'll make tedious, tiny cleanups easy as ever. Remember how long it took to get crumbs out of your keyboard? Those days are over, bud!
Promising review: "Another 'TikTok made me buy' purchase. I absolutely love this thing. It helps with cleaning my daughter’s desk since she’s homeschooling and this is easy to use to clean inside of drawers." —Manisha Roopnarine
Get it from Amazon for $69.99 (available in four colors).
18. A light-up constellation doll for little ones who prefer counting stars to counting sheep, who need a little light at night to encourage them to stay in their own room. Your room doesn't have STARS, it's not nearly cool enough for your kids to sneak into!
Promising review: "This is a great addition to any kid's room. Both my kids love having one. The are very durable. We have had one for 10 years and when the twins got their separate rooms another one was a must have. The original is still working great. They are also perfect to help the kiddos travel." —Bob Peal
Get it from Amazon for $41+ (available in four styles).
19. Burn After Writing — this is gonna be the guided journal of your dreams. In fact, tens of thousands of reviewers swear by it as a source of anger management and self-discovery. Work through a series of questions and experiments and dive deep into thoughts you have held onto that benefit you vs ones it's time to trash. The best part? Once you've completed it, you destroy it! Fire and brimstone, baby!
Promising review: "I first saw this book on TikTok and decided to look more into it. I purchased four total because I know some people holding onto things that are difficult to let go of. It’s a great way to look at things from a different perspective and truly hold yourself accountable to different things in your life. I love what it stands for and I look forward to when I burn mine after I’m done. Self love, self care, and meditation for a better state of mind tomorrow is always the goal. I definitely recommend it to those susceptible to change and the willingness to try things different. You’re so much more than what’s been done to you and someone’s inability to see your worth does not decrease your value. Choose you for a change." —Brent Helm
Get it from Amazon for $7.32.
20. A Baseboard Buddy that'll basically work like an eraser. This has an extendable handle that'll make cleaning tiny corners and often-ignored areas not just simple, but suuuper satisfying.
Promising review: "Buy it NOW. Honestly, I had huge reservations for this thing. Yet another miracle cleaning tool that will break or bend or something. I was so wrong. It was easy to put together and I sprayed it with Mean Green and went to the baseboards. No more kneeling and no broken back. This thing is amazing. It is durable and the pad is super absorbent. I am so happy. I can't wait to do the rest of the house!" —artgirl
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
21. A much-needed peanut butter knife so you can guarantee not a *drop* of your perfect peanut putty goes to waste. Hate getting peanut butter all over your knuckles when scraping out the container with a standard knife? Get this in your life.
Promising reviews: "I love this knife. You couldn't design a better knife for peanut butter if you tried. I bought a less expensive one, but returned it because the design was poor. There's no substitution for this quality product. Spend a couple of dollars more, and get the best." —Beck
"You can use it for many things. It is strong, and can get things out of deep blenders, like a Vitamix. You could even use it to spread icing on a cake! Best of all, it is perfect for stirring those large nut butter containers you get from the warehouse stores." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in two colors and multipacks).
22. The Car Seat Key for parents and guardians who have had one too many manicures ruined by car seat clips. This makes buckling and unbuckling your little one *super* easy and it even hooks onto your keychain so you've always got it with you when getting in the car.
Promising review: "After I had my first child almost a year ago, I stopped getting acrylic nails because I couldn't get him out of his car seat without struggling or breaking a nail. I’d have to get them as an overlay or extra short. But I saw this product on TikTok and had to try it out, and OMG!! It works! It took me a while to figure out the best angle to get him out with it, but once I did, I went to the nail shop expeditiously!! LOL, if you’ve been thinking about this for a while, GET IT! It’s worth it!" —Tora318
Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in two colors and two-packs).
23. A "flaming" humidifier that'll be a hit with avid readers who could use a little sent in the air and a tiny "fire" to create the *perfect* cozy cottage ambience while they read.
Check out a TikTok of the flaming humidifier in action.
Promising review: "I like how this diffuser kind of looks like a mini fireplace and it’s perfect for winter. I also like how long the water of this diffuser lasts — I always add my favorite essential oil in it when I go to sleep every night without worrying it will run out of water. I used to have insomnia and it helped me to sleep through the night with my relaxing essential oil scent, and it also worked as a humidifier." —Benny
Get it from Amazon for $32.69+ (available in four styles).
24. A foaming hand soap — this lil' endorphin booster is sure to convince your kids (or yourself) to stay fresh as a daisy! Pump down once and the vertical foam applicator places a picture perfect flower on the palm of your hand. Precious.
Here's why my BuzzFeed Shopping colleague loves it:
"Not only is it super hydrating for my hands (LOL @ constantly hand-washing now and forever!), but the yuzu scent is also just calming and lovely, and I'm obsessed with how light and frothy the foaming suds are from the soap." —Emma Lord
Promising review: "I will admit, I first saw this soap on TikTok and thought that it would be a nice soap to try since I do seem to be washing my hands all the time these days. I was so excited when I received it to give it a try, really just to see the pretty foam flower. I was very pleasantly surprised when I pushed down (twice) to get the foam to come out. Not only is the flower cute, but the foam is thick and luxurious and makes your hands feel totally moisturized after you wash them. The smell is very pretty and not overpowering at all. My teenager loves it too and is now finally washing her hands more like she is supposed to. I bought them for every bathroom in the house as well as the kitchen. I almost don't want to recommend it so they don't run out of stock!" —Audra Williams
Get it from Amazon for $18.
25. An overnight lip mask so you can pucker up with perfection. This overnight formula claims to provide all-day hydration and is infused with vitamin C to help exfoliate dry flakes.
Promising reviews: "I’ve bought several of these. It’s popular with the teen crowd, so I am an outlier. At 51, I use this at night around my lips. Really softens the pinched look that can come with age. I like the scent too! A little teeny but I’ll take it." —EJF
Get it from Amazon for $24 (available in four flavors)
26. The Honest Company Truly Calming lavender bubble bath with a downright luxurious lather and a calming formula that may help soothe your sleep-averse child and save your sleep-deprived self.
This gentle formula is made with naturally derived botanicals and essential oils and is free of all the toxic stuff: SLS, sulfates, parabens, synthetic fragrances, dyes, formaldehyde donors, MEA, DEA, or TEA.
Promising review: "I will buy this forever!! It smells so good and makes our little one so relaxed and sleeps so good after her baths!! Not to mention at all of our routine checkups our peds always mentions how soft our little ones skin is and asks what we do and if we put lotion on every day and we say no only if her skin feels dry! 🤣👌🙌 Highly recommend! Also a little goes a long way! This will last a long time." —Kayla S.
Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in four formulas).
27. A sawtooth border edger for expertly cutting grass that's making your garden or curb look a little shaggy. Your neighbors are about to think you got a landscaper...keep them guessing!
Promising review: "I ordered this after struggling the past few seasons with getting neat, attractive edging using my current tools. I was never able to achieve the look and depth I wanted. I needed something I could manage physically (not too heavy or awkward) as a senior attempting to maintain my corner city lot. This is the cat's meow. The tool overall is heavy enough to provide stability but not so heavy that it hurts my shoulders or arms to use repetitively while edging. The 'T' handle is comfortable, it is a perfect length, and the teeth cut right through roots, grass, weeds, etc. with absolutely no problem." —Peaches
Get it from Amazon for $32.98.
28. A floor-length mirror that TikTok is going positively bonkers over. The frame is coated in a faux-looking suede material, giving it an extra cozy touch. Grab this and you're sure to feel all happy and squiggly inside!
Check out a TikTok of this strokeable mirror.
Promising review: "Obsessed!! I was nervous to buy this when it first came out but it arrived perfectly in tact and is absolutely beautiful. The border is like a velvet suede and looks SO nice." —Elizabeth P. Galvis
Get it from Amazon for $209.99.
29. A set of stackable stick-shaped ice molds for anyone who refuses to drink out of anything other than their beloved water bottle. Thanks to these molds, you can actually fit ice cubes inside! Hydration here we come!
Promising review: "I got these to make ice cubes that I could fit into hot water bottles to make 'cold water bottles.' I'm in the big heat wave and it's been over 100 every day for the last week, with no sign of it letting up any time soon. These are quick and easy and the cold water bottles have been the only thing helping me sleep in a room anywhere between 80–90 degrees at night. I love the lids! It makes my ice trays easy to stack and more secure. I wish all ice trays came with lids like this!" —AJ Stark
Get a set of three from Amazon for $9.99+ (available with or without covers).
30. And a two-sided travel cup that'll encourage us coffee drinkers to *also* keep something hydrating nearby. If there isn't water literally beside the coffee in my cup...then I'm not drinking it.
Check it out on TikTok here!
Promising review: "You NEED this. This product is AMAZING. When I run errands, I hate bringing both a water bottle and coffee tumbler. This product solves that issue. I ran it through my dishwasher to clean it, and the plastic didn’t morph at all. 10/10 recommend!" —Megan Huffman
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in three colors).
31. A pair of gardening gloves with claws for home gardeners who get jealous of their dog's ability to dig. Reviewers rave about how much easier this makes weeding, planting, and even raking leaves!
Promising review: "I laughed when I first saw the picture of this item. I thought, well if they don’t work, I’ll use them for a costume. But they are amazing at pulling weeds. I use mine for those pesky weeds in the rocks. One pull and you get root and all." —cynthia Williams
Get it from Amazon for $7.95+ (available in two colors and as a pack of two).
32. A splurge-worthy tube of Stila mascara formulated to avoid flaking, fading, or streaking when applied. If you want your eyelashes to outshine everyone, get this goop on stat!
BuzzFeed editor Jasmin Sandal (that's her above!) loves this stuff. In her own words:
"I don't think I ever knew the true meaning of wide-awake eyes until I armed myself with this mascara from Stila. Let's just start with the look and feel of it: It comes in a weighty gold tube — so you already know you're about to experience something special — and the applicator is curved in the center with just the right amount of product on it. Clearly from my experience, you can tell the obvious difference between the with and without — and, TBH, the 'without' has been my general M.O. during these recent times. But that has all changed thanks to this lash extension in a tube! Not only do my eyelashes appear thicker, but the length is just truly phenomenal. I feel like a brand-new, less-tired-looking woman any time I apply a lick of this!
Promising review: "BEST mascara ever!!! I’m asked all the time if my eyelashes are real or if they are mine. Keep in mind I am 57 years old! This makes my lashes look lush and long and healthy." —KC (Houston,TX)
Get it from Amazon for $25.
33. A pair of noise-reduction earplugs that'll save the day if you are overstimulated and simply can't stand the cacophony of chaos around you. These muffle voices and dull both loud noises and background sounds, helping you to focus on staying zen in your head.
The earplugs also come with a carrying case and eight different ear tips (XS–L) to ensure the perfect fit.
Promising review: "If I could, I'd give these 10 stars for comfort. I have very small ear canals and have always struggled with earplugs. They're usually too big and difficult to insert properly. And once they're in, I can't sleep in them more than a couple of nights without my ears getting sore. These are different. The smallest tips are just right and they insert perfectly as you twist. They also come out easily by twisting. They are not totally noise canceling, but they're just right in my opinion. I mostly use them while traveling and sleeping hotels. They block noise enough to allow me to sleep but not so much that I can't hear my alarm in the morning. And I haven't noticed any soreness even after wearing for nearly a week. Definitely recommend!" —Nicole G.
Get it from Amazon for $24.95 (available in nine colors).
34. And finally, a balcony bar so you can turn your itty bitty balcony into the *perfect* coffee spot.
Best Balcony Bars makes...the best balcony bars, whether you're looking for space-saving outdoor furniture or you want to turn your patio into *the* place to be.
Promising review: "Beautiful, hand-crafted, custom-fit to my railing. Creator is great to deal with on a custom piece. Everyone compliments it. I eat or have drinks on it every day and prefer it to eating at my dining room table! The second tier is ideal serving dishes, glasses, bottles, and the main tier is ideal for main dishes, computers, and notebooks while optimizing my patio functionality and keeping me at my serene view throughout my day. Great custom piece!" —Travis Horn
