I’ve minced as many as five cloves in it in seconds. It’s a little tricky getting all of the garlic out once minced (I use a silicone basting brush to get most of it, but I always use more than the recipe calls for anyway, so it’s not a deal breaker).

I put some on after towel drying (no brushing) my hair, and my waves actually resembled curls! It wasn't instant, so I was skeptical, but after about 15 minutes, I caught a glimpse of my hair in the mirror, and I was amazed. It looked styled.

A one-step carbonated clay mask for exfoliating your pores and stimulating your skin to get a healthy glow. And watch as your face gets covered in foam! Promising review: "I decided to try this mask based on the high customer rating and affordable price just to see if it would live up to the hype. I just finished washing it off my face, and I have to say I do see a difference, albeit not a dramatic one.

I have enlarged pores in my T-zone and issues with blackheads around my chin. After one use, my pores appear smaller and tighter, and most of the smallest blackheads and bumps are gone from around my chin. I am impressed, but I think with regular use it might make an even bigger difference — maybe a couple of times a week.

Oh yeah, it's also really fun to watch and feel the bubbles foaming up on your face!" — Elisabeth Check out our full Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Bubble Clay Mask review . Get it from Amazon for $9.35 .

Burn After Writing — a self-reflection journal with an amazing twist: Burn your confessions once you're done writing them! One reviewer even noted that this book is "a wonderful way to let go." 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 for 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 are always the goal.

I definitely recommend it to those susceptible to change and the willingness to try things differently. 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.

After reading plenty of reviews for the different brands, I decided to go with this one since you can carbonate any liquid.

I have been using it for a few weeks now without any issues. I am still using the original tank I purchased and have been drinking plenty of carbonated water. I have found myself NOT drinking as much Diet Coke.

In fact, all I drink now at home is carbonated water. Overall, it's an excellent item. I have carbonated Gatorade and red wine as well.

20. A pair of colorful retro sunglasses sure to brighten up any gray day! Promising review: "I love these glasses so much and for so many different reasons that I now own them in four different colors. I first looked into them when I saw 'color therapy' glasses that were all simply hideous.

The first one I got was yellow and it's still my favorite to this day, but it's so fun having a choice. Sometimes, I carry two with me, and people always want to know about them. Working under fluorescent lights and living in the PNW, where it's gray a lot of the time, can be straining and depressing.

These seriously help me in my day-to-day, and because they don't have rims, I often forget I'm even wearing them. They come with a fabric carrying case to keep them from getting scratched, and I've straight up sat on mine multiple times and haven't had a single problem. They are solid.

I love them and am gonna keep buying them. Would 100% recommend them." — Megan Olson Get it from Amazon for $11.

From baked goods to chicken wings, get evenly cooked and perfectly crisp meals every time! Promising review: "This air fryer from Dash is awesome. My wife and I have always wanted to try an air fryer, and since we got this one, we have not looked back. We make oven fries very often, but they are not crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.

However, with an air fryer and 20 minutes to spare, you can have restaurant-grade fries that have a crispy outside/juicy inside. Easy to clean up and store the fryer. Five stars all the way!" — David M.

It seals with no leaks. No issues in the microwave or dishwasher. It feels good quality (scratch/dent-resistant, latches well, sturdy handle), and it's cute! Love that the single divider and quartered sections are both detachable and stackable; makes for easy storage :)" — LM Get it from our Goodful shop on Amazon for $15.

41+ (available in five colors). 24. An ice pop lip tint made with minerals and vitamins extracted from fruit that'll create long-lasting color.

Promising review: "The best lip stain I have used yet. The color, smell, texture, taste, and packaging are all exceptional. It’s not very moisturizing (which I don’t expect in a stain anyway), but it’s definitely NOT drying.

It’s water-based, which makes the texture delightful. There is no strong chemical smell or taste. The longevity isn’t great, but the “pros” outweighed that simple “con.

Promising review: "OMG I’m in love with the color of these!!! They’re so beautiful and shiny!! I thought maybe they would be too much cleaning for me because I don’t want to have to polish my silverware every time I wash them! I just don’t have time for that, but thankfully that isn’t an issue with these; they come out of the dishwasher all bright and pretty looking brand-new!! ! They seem to be a good quality all the way around!!! I definitely recommend getting these!!! I had a dinner party and my guests all had to know where I got my unicorn silverware!!

Promising review: "I’m obsessed with these overalls. They are lightweight but not see-through. The color is gorgeous.

Lots of pockets. I’m quite tall and they don’t lay at a weird place on my leg. I wanted to make sure they would be a little baggy, so I sized up, but I think they would have fit fine if I hadn’t.

" — Samantha Clason Get it from Amazon for $27.99 (available in women's sizes S–3XL and in 15 colors/patterns). 29.

A Paula's Choice BHA liquid exfoliant to gently unclog your pores as it exfoliates and helps brighten your skin. This leave-on formula may even be gentle enough for daily use depending on how sensitive your skin is. Promising review: "I have every skin issue you can think of.

I’ve spent probably thousands on a multitude of different products, trying to find one that would at least make a dent. I’ve had many procedures, many trips to the dermatologist. Nothing I’ve ever used, nothing I’ve ever done, has made such a profound difference in the appearance of my skin.

Having rosacea , my face often felt hot, bumpy, and burned. While my complexion is naturally fair and pink, this has seriously covered all my bases in a gentle and effective way. I’ve been trying to turn my skin around for YEARS! This was the product that did it.

If I could give it 100 stars I would. It has seriously changed my life!" — hc Get it from Amazon for $14+ (available in two sizes). 30.

I was worried it might tangle in my hair, but it was totally fine on that front, too. I've noticed that my hair has been a little less greasy at the roots since I started using it a few weeks ago . And I'm echoing a ton of reviewers here when I say it just feels reeeeeally, really nice.

Promising review : "I ordered this lamp because of its appearance. This has totally filled a void in my life I didn't know existed. Everyone who sees it pokes it.

The lamp is very functional. It's got a really nice set of brightness options, and the glow is yellowish, which is much nicer than white in a dim/dark room. One thing that isn't mentioned in the description is that its legs are utterly floppy.

It's terrific." — Literated Get it from Amazon for $15.99 .

Truff is a small biz specializing in kicking your recipes up a notch. BuzzFeed contributor Rebecca O'Connell loves this stuff: "This black truffle oil-infused hot sauce definitely surprised me. At first, I didn't even like it! But then I found myself adding it to more and more foods, and suddenly, it was my most used hot sauce of the week.

The truffle flavor is definitely subtle, but it has an interesting taste that pairs nicely with barbecue. Expect a thick consistency and fairly sweet taste, almost like pureed bell peppers. I would definitely recommend marinating shrimp in it or slathering it over grilled veggies.

It has no preservatives and comes in a fancy glass bottle so — hello — great gift idea right here!" Get it from Truff on Amazon for $13.99+ (available in nine flavors). The reviews for this post have been edited for length and clarity.
