1. A bottle of professional-grade callus-removing gel for professional pedicure results at home if scrubbing, soaking, and filing have failed you. Promising review: "Best foot callus remover I have ever used! I read a lot of the reviews before purchasing this product.
Most callus removers I have purchased in the past were not very effective. So, I was encouraged by the reviews. I saw that a lot of reviewers mentioned being very careful not to leave it on longer than three or four minutes.
My feet were the softest they had ever been. Love love love." — Cheri whisker Get it from Amazon for $14.
99 (also available in an extra-strength formula ). 2. A reviewer-beloved veggie chopper can make onion tears and food prep mess a thing of the past! This way you won't waste so much time energy on *evenly* spiralizing or chopping, a fool's errand! (Jk, but this'll make it way easier.
) A plus is that this baby can slice through a potato BUT remember how sharp that means it is and BE CAREFUL touching the blades! You'll get four different blades including a small dicer, large dicer, a spiral blade, and a ribbon blade. Check out a TikTok of the veggie chopper in action. Promising review: "Makes life so much easier.
I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. We used to have a Prepworks chopper which was a similar idea, but you had to press so hard to chop, and it broke after not too long. This one requires very little effort to cut through the food and it has a generous container.

A standing weeder (without the chemicals!) to help *quickly* improve your view of your yard. You're not the only one who has trouble enjoying weed-filled scenery. And hey, while you're weeding with this there's no bending over! Your back will thank you.
Made with a bamboo handle and powder-coated steel, it uses a simple lever system to made weeding easy. Grampa's Weeder is a small business! Promising review: "Oh my god, I friggin' love this tool. I bought this on a whim given we bought our first house and know nothing about caring for a yard.
Boy has it come in handy. Our new house had a ton of weeds in the front yard and this tool helped me get most of them out in no time. In fact, the process of yanking out the weed was strangely satisfying! I don't think anyone can say that weeding is fun but this tool made it as close to fun as you can get , especially when you see a long root along with the weed you pulled.
" — JG Get it on Amazon for $38.24 . 4.
And a crack weeder tool that'll help target those weeds that seem to pop up in some of the most impossible places, like between your paver cracks. This tool gets into those tight spots to annihilate weeds, thistles, and moss so you can move on with your life. Promising review: " I've been searching for something to remove the weeds for a while and came across this amazing tool.
Since I refuse to use chemicals in my yard, I've been left with scraped knuckles every time I attempt to remove weeds. The weeds have grown so tightly in the concrete cracks that I pretty much gave up; even weed-whacking it didn't help much. Yes, you do have to use a little bit of effort but the end result was so worth it!" — Shelley Arakaki Get it from Amazon for $18.
99 (available in nine styles and multipacks). 5. Compound W One Step Pads to target plantar warts with a NBD waterproof bandage you can apply and then go about your day.
Promising review: " This worked for me. Here's what happened. First bandage: Everything turned white.
Second bandage: The top layer of the wart started disappearing and I could see the blood vessels that were inside it clearly. Third bandage: It started burning while wearing it. One day was REALLY painful, but now I think I just put the bandage on too tight.
There was definitely burning though. Uncomfortable, not unbearable. Fourth bandage: The skin around the wart started to crack.
Fifth bandage: The skin continued to crack and I could see the wart separating. Sixth bandage: Skin separating deeper. Wart was really soft but it wouldn't budge.
Seventh bandage: The wart stuck to the medicine, so when I pulled off the bandage, the wart went with it. I'm left with some raw skin that's a bit sensitive but it feels fine. It looks like the entire wart came off, roots and all.
Side note: It smells horribly. Make sure you put the bandage on tight enough to try and conceal the smell, but not so tight it hurts. Overall, not a horrible process.
Make sure you follow the instructions and keep it on for 48 hours at a time. Two of mine were only on for 24 hours and I think that prolonged the process." — Chelsea Gipson Get a pack of 14 from Amazon for $7.

Promising review: "Saw on TikTok (don’t judge) and automatically added to cart. So easy to use, takes probably a minute to fully bubble up and clean, and you’re left with a clean sink!

Promising review: "Took years off my eyes! This product is so reasonably priced. I came across a TikTok promoting this and decided to take a chance since the price was super reasonable. My eyes looked brighter in a good way, and the concealer worked so well that I felt I looked younger.
I got compliments from friends asking what I did differently with my makeup. I recommend it." — Monica T.

Promising review: "Just used this product on a recent trip to Florida. I made sure to wash my skin before application and it lasted about two days on my skin without coming off. When out of the sun or behind UV glass, like in a car, the spot turns clear.
As soon as you step into the sun it turns purple. If you use a sunblock it starts to become clear or semi clear. After being on the beach and having gone into the water a few times the spot started seeing purple and I applied sunblock again .
In a minute the spot was clear again. So this is very effective In alerting me when to reapply." — RGTorque Get two 16-counts from Amazon for $25.

A no-scrub weekly shower cleaner to spray on after you shower, wait 8–12 hours while it tackles mold and mildew stains, soap scum, and just about any gross grime without YOU having to scrub. Talk about practical to the max. Psst, I use this with great success on my shower in my rental apartment! Promising review: "Bought this because of the reviews, and I’m not disappointed.
I moved into a rental house that had a dirty tub with those yellow ring stains. I couldn’t get on my knees and scrub them, so I was excited to try this product. It took three sprays with drying time in between, but they are almost invisible.
But do be careful because the residue can leave a slippery surface, which the directions warn about." — Michele Get it from Amazon for $18.50 .
11. An oil stain remover capable of annihilating that grease stain that you thought made your garage or driveway a goner. Just apply it, let it sit, and then come back to easily wipe up the mess.
Promising review: "Changed the oil on my girlfriend's car and some oil spilled on my NEW driveway...
which I didn't notice 'til four days later. Four spots all about the size of a dollar bill baking in the Arizona sun for four days. Put the stuff on (sits on the stain like pancake batter — don't be afraid to pour liberally) and let it sit from 6 p.
m. 'til about 9 a.m.
the next day. It dried and the instructions said to just sweep the stuff up (right, like I am not going to need a scraper and wire scrub pad for an hour. HA).
Well it broke apart with the broom and the stains were gone, just swept up the powder pieces — took about a minute. I WAS SHOCKED! Something that actually works on oil and it's easy. Absolutely NO sign of anything that was there.

A reusable roller dog hair remover that'll have you toss your old sticky roller after you see how much fur this reusable one (it has a sturdy brush system) picks up off your beloved couch that both you and your dog basically live on. Promising review: "I have a golden retriever and the shedding is out of control.
My fabric sofa is constantly covered in hair and I finally decided to try this after reading an article about popular TikTok products. The reviews do not lie, this thing works magic!! I wish I had taken a before and after picture because the difference is noticeable. I watched the video tutorial before I tried it to ensure I was using it properly and everything he says is true, you do really have to put your arm to work with vigorous back and forth movement! However, I find it's a great arm workout and it works wonders.

Put down the pizza place phone number and get back to your we-have-food-at-home plans. Promising review: "I was a little concerned this was going to be one of those gifts that were hyped up but it’s not. It’s not going to thaw a huge chunk of meat in an hour but I have thawed a chunk of chicken in a few hours.
The product itself isn’t very thick which I like as it doesn’t take up a lot of space for storage. It doesn’t warm up, but pulls the cold from the meat, which makes the product thaw (like putting meat in cold water to thaw it faster and not cook it)." — Savannah A.

Promising review: "After reading the reviews I thought I could at least try it, and holy smokes, this is a miracle cleaner !!! I think I have tried every cleaner on the market for pet stains and nothing ever really works on my carpets.
Even if I get it off the top, it somehow comes back up. My crazy dogs hate the rain and they have one spot that they always go on when they decide they are not going outside. I have cleaned the spot probably 100 times.
I cleaned this area one time with this cleaner and my spot steam cleaner and it is completely gone! The stain and smell are 100% gone, not just covered up like before, completely and absolutely gone. Miracle cleaner for sure!" — PLLane Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in three scents and two sizes).

.. This stuff will get new grass growin' in no time so you can get back to hosting BBQs.
Promising review: “We purchased this to fill some patches in our backyard that were damaged by our puppy. Works like a charm. The one caveat is that you really do have to water it a bit every day.
Once it takes off though, it grows pretty quickly! Within one week of planting this, we had 1-inch long grass blades. One month later, all the patches are gone. Highly recommended!” — Jessica N.

I put it on as soon as it arrived.
I kept it on for almost a minute and when I wiped it off with a damp cotton ball, the color was beautiful . It’s true to its word about the 12-hour staying power. I put a little lip balm over it and enjoyed eating, drinking, and talking.
It didn’t come off! If you like lip stain? Get this product! It’s a keeper. I will be ordering all of the shades." — Brandy Get it from Amazon for $22 (available in 24 shades).
20. A pack of stain-removing, nontoxic cleaning cups to clean out your Keurig's innards once your coffee starts tasting a bit funny. Promising review: "Okay, so these cleaner pods are awesome! I didn't know how gross our Keurig was until today.
The big mason jar on the left is when I actually ran the cleaner through plus one rinse cycle. The middle one is another rinse cycle and the last one, on the right, is the last one I did. So yes, I would suggest running two or three rinse cycles instead of the recommended one.
But it's still an awesome product for the price! I have a Keurig 2.0 and I had no issues." — Mads0421 Get a pack of six from Amazon for $9.
95 . 21. LONDONTOWN Illuminating Nail Concealer can give you a no-mani mani that you can quickly brush on before an event.
Promising review: "As much as I would love to have nice, manicured nails, i don’t spend money on manicures. Gels are damaging and regular manicures last a couple of days before peeling. I get regular pedicures bc they last but my hands have looked pretty unkempt for much of my adult life.
Until now. I was definitely skeptical that this polish could be any different from one of the countless neutral Essie shades out there that I’ve tried since the '90s — Ballet Slippers, Light as Linen, etc., — but I decided to give the milky shade a try and I’m so glad I did!!! My nails look incredible.
I’m not even sure how to describe why but they look very natural and clean. It’s been a week of wearing two coats and there isn’t one bubble or lift forming on the edges. One coat actually looks great also.
I am sold on this stuff. Hopefully it will never be discontinued. So so happy.

Neutrogena makeup eraser stick will *quickly* correct any accidental smudges so you won't have to touch up later! Promising review: "Why didn’t someone think of this sooner?

Must-buy product!! " — Katherine Riordan Get it from Amazon for $10.
59 . 24. A Revlon volcanic stone face roller to remove oil and shine from your face.
And unlike oil-blotting sheets, the ball can be popped out and washed so you can use this over and over and over again. Promising review: "First off, if you have extremely oily skin, this. is.
it . I was so tired of getting blotting powder/wipes. It felt wasteful and always left residue on my face.
I saw this on TikTok and NEEDED it. Not only is it affordable, but it's also washable, which helps you save money and be less wasteful. It felt like the holy grail had been delivered to my front doorstep.
After my first use, I was in love. Now, it doesn't pick up everything but it does make it more matte and gives you a natural look. I am so excited this product exists and I already feel more confident.

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.

I wish I had found it sooner!" — Mmandkcs Get it from Amazon for $8.19+ (available in eight colors). 28.
Kenra Platinum Blow-Dry Spray will seriously cut down on your heat-styling time — like 50%! It also tames frizz and keeps your hair protected during said heat-styling. Oh, and it's all over TikTok. Psst! The brand recommends using this spray on medium to coarse hair types.
I've used this before and *did* notice that it cut down on my drying time! And for fine to medium hair, try the Kenra Platinum Blow-Dry Mist ! Promising review: "I LOVE the smell of this! Bought it due to frizzing from coloring my hair, but really didn't believe that it shortened drying time. I mean, how can something putting moisture on you hair shorten the drying time, right? I was shocked. I don't know if it cut it down by 50%, but I did notice blow-drying my hair took quite a bit less time.
I am sold on this stuff. Makes my hair feel like silk, but not greasy (I was worried about it making my hair greasy) and it takes only a few sprays to get the results. I hold it about 15" from my head and spray the top, both sides, and the back once, then rub it in with my hands.
Perfect!" — Janice C. Henderson Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in three sizes; cruelty-free).
29. NYX Matte Finish Makeup Setting spray to lock in your makeup (on the cheap!) to help avoid touchups throughout the day. I've tried tons of different setting sprays and keep going back to this one because it's affordable and works nearly as well as any luxury version I've tried.
Promising review: "Love this finishing spray! My makeup looks fresh all day long. I had never used a product to set my foundation before this one and I will never be without it again. If you like a soft matte finish, you will really like this product.
Highly recommended." — BeBe Benz Get it from Amazon for $ 6.73 + (available in three kinds and jumbo sizes; vegan).
30. A power scrubber brush that'll attach to your drill/driver to help get at all kinds of messes. Work smarter, not harder.
Useful Products is a US-based small business established in 2007 by car wash owner, electrician, and former bodybuilder Anthony LaPolla that specializes in drill-cleaning brushes and attachments. Each of the different brush colors indicates which tasks the brushes are meant for based on their bristle type, so be sure to check which one is best suited for whatever you need to for! Yellow is the “all-purpose” medium bristle, but some are softer and harder depending on what types of surfaces you’re cleaning (but none of them will scratch!). Promising review: "Superb.
Had spent hours trying to scrub away probably years of dirt from the bathtub in my new rented place. Also hurt my shoulder in the process of hand scrubbing. This thing finished the job in under 10 minutes.
Simple but genius." — David Get it from Amazon for $18.95 (available in six colors).
31. Affresh dishwasher tablets that'll get rid of residue that ends up creating odor and buildup on your dishes. Turns out, you don't need a new dishwasher OR a second cycle, it just needs a proper cleaning.
Promising review: "I tossed one of the tablets into the bottom of the full machine per the instructions and ran the regular cycle. I did not expect the results I got! The glassware that I thought was permanently etched and ruined came out like new. Same with cutlery.
The difference is unbelievable. I will use this faithfully every month, as recommended. I can even put it on my subscribe and save order so I will get a new pack every six months.
I am amazed!" — Sheila Get them from Amazon for $8.99 . 32.
Plus, a dishwasher magnet so everyone in the house is on the same page about whether it's OK to eat off a plate that's in the dishwasher instead of taking a survey when you've gotta feed a crowd within the next day. Promising review: "I got this because my mother has dementia and she kept putting away dirty dishes. 🤦🏽♀️ And believe it or not she has actually been using it and it definitely has been working!

34. A mountable cat-grooming brush to help your kitty get some rubs when your hands are all tied up with other tasks. Promising review: "I got this for my three-legged cat because he can't scratch his left side.
He'll be trying to scratch and all you see is his little nub going crazy. I found these and he immediately LOVED it! The expression on his face when he first tried it was priceless. The only downside is that it's possible it'll fall off because it was hard for me to get all pieces of tape to stick on a corner at the same time, but I can always buy more double-sided tape so not a big deal to me.
The product is for Floyd, not me, and he's happy, so 5 stars." — Pippa Runs Get it from Amazon for $4.99 .
35. A powerful dishwashing spray that, honestly, if you buy anything from this list, this should be it — especially if your old house *doesn't* include a dishwasher. You can spray down that casserole dish caked with enchilada sauce, let it sit, and you simply wipe and rinse away that saucy mess in a few minutes after you've conquered your meal.
(Can you sense an enchilada theme here?) I live in an apartment without a dishwasher, and I honestly use that as an excuse to order takeout food instead of cooking. But, as soon as I got my hands on a bottle of this stuff (regular Dawn is my go-to dish soap, BTW), I put it to use on both a saucepan I used to make homemade enchilada sauce *and* the casserole dish I baked those enchiladas, which had a ton of caked-on food. It really does work like I say it does! Like, scary well.

Bottle Bright cleaning tablets will revive the look (and taste!) of the stainless-steel thermos you use every dang day but aren't so great at washing like you should. Promising review: "Finished using it five minutes ago and it’s the best! My husband uses a Stanley thermos daily to take coffee to work. He tries to remember to rinse it out every day, but that doesn’t always happen.
I got the package today, filled the thermos with water, dropped a tablet in, and let it sit. I promptly forgot about it for a few hours. Initially, I was disappointed when I dumped the water, as it was barely tinged brown.
Then I put fresh water in, covered the top, shook it, and OMG. T he crap that came out was disgusting, yet fascinating. I looked in the thermos and saw almost nothing but sparkly silver! There was a little crud left in the top third of the thermos, but it’s a really tall one, so I wasn’t surprised.
Got the bottle brush, swished twice, and bam! All clean! No fumes, no smell, no nothing, just clean. I used to struggle cleaning it with baking soda, vinegar, the brush, soap, and elbow grease. Screw that.
I will forever use only these tablets! Here’s to better tasting (and way less gross) coffee!" — BranchingOut Get 36 tablets from Amazon for $17.48 . 37.
A set of Wad-Free pads for helping the air flow and *actually* dry your sheets while they're in the dryer. No more unloading only to find your bedding is due for another cycle. Wad-Free is a small biz that was launched during the pandemic.
Cyndi, the founder, learned CAD (computer-aided design) to create the pads. And 5% of profits are donated to the American Brain Tumor Association. Promising review: "In the 45+ yrs I’ve been washing sheets, I’ve tried everything to keep them from wadding up like a burrito.
This works! I use them for my king sized bed and no more wet little bundle in the middle after drying them! The pillowcases now wind up on top instead of twisted and wet inside. It’s super easy to attach the corners of the sheet to the silicone square. The sheets come out cleaner and there’s no need to re-dry them! I bought one for both of my daughters — always happy to make life easier for them! Now I use them for my queen-size beds as well.
I enjoy washing my sheets weekly now! I highly recommend." — Leslie Burch Get it from Amazon for $18.99 .
38. A hanger organizer you should've bought for your laundry room eons ago instead of scrounging for spares in every family member's closet. Remember that time you bought a 50-pack of hangers because you thought you were out, but you most definitely weren't? Yep.
Promising review: "I used to have messy baskets of hangers or a bunch of empty hangers on the rack. Now all my hangers are nice and neat and easy for laundry day." — Susan Burnside Get it from Amazon for $15.
99 . 39. A pumice stone that'll scrub away hard water marks and you should most definitely label as "TOILET" so people don't use it on their feet(!!!!).
Promising review: "We rented a home and the toilets were disgusting. Someone suggested a pumice stone and let me tell you it was amazing!! The picture is after just five minutes with the stone. I tried bleach, every toilet bowl cleaner available, and countless hours of scrubbing to no avail.
..but this stone worked instantly! I will be buying several more!! The stone does dissolve when scrubbing so you need a couple.
I was able to do almost two toilets completely that looked awful with one stone!!" — CristaCross Get it from Amazon for $11.24 . 40.
A special brush can help keep your dryer's lint trap clear of debris and make drying cycles/the appliance more effective for longer. Also, built-up lint is a fire hazard! Make this a part of your weekly cleaning routine. Promising review: "This brush is stiff but flexible enough to feed under my dryer's lint filter.
Several weeks ago a trouble light came on that indicated the air flow in my dryer was becoming obstructed. I had the dryer vent and area under the lint filter cleaned. (Not much lint was pulled out, so maybe the dryer sensor gave a false alarm.
) I felt a small investment in a brush such as this is better than paying for a future vent cleaning. I've been using it once a week and it picks up a little lint each time, but that's lint that won't have a chance to build up in the dryer vent!" — blueskys Get it from Amazon for $6.98 .
41. Stain-lifting pads will tackle the icky pet stains on your wall-to-wall beige carpeting from when your poor dog didn't want to go use the bathroom outside when it was storming. Promising review: "Our poor older pup started having some incontinence issues and had several accidents in the house.
I was really frustrated until I found these. They work amazingly well. They're small, so if the area was larger I had to use two or three, but they pulled up stains and saved the house from being smelly.
I even used one on an older stain (that I'm pretty sure wasn't pet related) and it came up after leaving it on for about 24 hours. I make sure to keep a supply of these in the house at all times now." — MC Get a pack of 20 from Amazon for $24.

This is one of my favorite lazy meals and I'll keep buying these as long as they keep making them. I tried out these noodles as part of the Ultimate Variety Pack and haven't looked back since. I want to ALWAYS have these in my kitchen cabinets.
Yes, they're THAT good. I'm very lazy and have spent way too much money on takeout in my life, so I'm forever looking for a solution to help me get takeout-worthy food at home for the least amount of effort. These totally fit the bill.
I also like to toss chopped scallions on top. I'll even even mix in sautéed veggies and chicken to help bulk up the dish..
.or just use up the stuff that I have that I know I need to eat. I adore them so much that I even bought my brother a big bundle of them for Christmas and he was VERY excited when he opened it because Momofuku and David Chang's amazing reputation precede them.

A Hairbrella that'll easily fold up and be ready for those days when you look like you have GREAT weather. Then all of a sudden the sky opens up and starts pouring, ruining your perfect hair day. No more of that! Hairbrella is a Black-owned small business that has been creating fashionable hats that protect hair from all kinds of weather since 2016.
Promising review : "If you have natural hair that you wear in a silk press...
you need the Hairbrella! If you have natural hair that you wear curly...
you need the hairbrella! If you have relaxed hair...
you need the hairbrella! Basically after losing my umbrella and resorting to the dreaded grocery bag over my head...
I found Hairbrella on Amazon and I bought one for myself and two other relatives. We chose not to chemically straighten our hair, so humid or rainy days can be a choice to return to our beautiful curls if an umbrella is not handy. So imagine our excitement to find a stylish, lined waterproof rainbonnet that won’t have me looking crazy with a grocery bag on my head as I enter buildings.
Buy this...
. You won’t be disappointed!" — Sherry " Would definitely buy again . It worked wonderfully.

44. A rust-removing spray can work like a magic trick in neglected showers, minus the elbow grease. Spray it on a rusted surround, leave the room, and come back to diminished stains you can easily wipe away.
Promising review: "At first I sprayed it on and added water and scrubbed. It didn’t seem to help. On another area I sprayed it on the rust stained area when it was dry and MAGICALLY it just did its job.
I discovered that if you add any water or scrub it’s likely not to work well at all. Just straight up spray it on and let it do its job. If it doesn’t clean what you think is iron rust I have news for you.
.. it can’t be iron rust because this product is magic and saved me from tearing out my tile.

" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $5.79+ (available in five lengths). 50.
A CreaClip Set to help you finally pull off the at-home trim that you've been scared to try up until now or have seriously messed up in the past. Its built-in level will help create an even chop! Promising review: "I can't say enough good things about this product. I can't wait to tell people what I use on my hair.
I hate going to salons. I think I'm one of the few people that has never left a salon feeling like I look better than before I arrived. It doesn't matter how much I've spent on the visit either.
This product has been a lifesaver. I just look up YouTube videos and follow the instructions. I just have myself a layered A-line bob, and it's one of the best cuts I've ever had.
It seems like this product would be too good to be true, but if you're patient, it's super easy to use." — Michelle H Get it from Amazon for $34.99 .

I recommend this shelf." — Pamella R. Get it from Amazon for $39.

Promising review: "My first reaction was 'Why did I buy this?' because when I opened the box and wasn't too convinced by the way it looked. Then I gave it a try with a couple of shirts I had just washed and next thing you know I simply had to do my entire drawer! Everything folds so pretty, neat, and easy. I still couldn't believe it, so I ended up organizing our bedsheets and towels.
I am amazed at how much of a game changer this is. It's a must-try! I am in love with how beautiful it leaves my clothes. " — Jesus Antonio Vedia Get it from Amazon for $16.
99+ (available in four colors). 53.

It's more or less a big emery board. Scratchpad for Dogs is a small biz based in Atlanta. Jen Fleming, the store's owner, came up with the idea after adopting a shelter dog named Ripley who absolutely hated having his nails trimmed.
Promising review: "Love this scratch pad! We adopted our dog almost a year ago and he's been terrified of clippers and grinders since day one. We've never been able to maintain his nails due to his super reactive anxiety around nail care. That's all changed since we got the Scratchpad a few weeks ago! He took to it right away and his nails have shown significant improvement in just a few sessions! " — Kira Armajani Get it from Scratchpad for Dogs on Etsy for $41.

Nothing slides around when you open/close the door. Makes it easier to keep the fridge clean. Great value for the money.

A liquid tartar remover for dogs you just add to their water bowl for a noticeable (sight and smell) reduction in plaque and stinky breath. Here's to glowing vet visits and less time spent fighting them with a toothbrush. Promising review: "My dog's molars were turning black and he had a ton of buildup on his canines.
In the photo (above), just imagine everywhere you see slight yellow, instead covered in black and brown gunk and hard plaque. His gums were beginning to look inflamed. And, of course, his breath could kill a horse.
After one week of constant use (a capful for every bowl of water) you could see an obvious difference in tooth color. I was blown away. (Why can’t human mouthwash do such a good job on our teeth?) After three weeks, his molars were almost completely clean.
After a couple of months of use, the plaque on his canines was soft enough to brush some of it off, which was totally impossible before. Plaque covered the canine approximately 70%. Obviously that's no longer the case.
IDK what insane solvent this is made of, but it keeps his gross mouth clean as a whistle. Now I don’t have to worry about my picky princess mutt losing his teeth because he can’t be bothered to chew anything." — BaconPancakes Get it from Amazon for $8.
99 (available in three flavors and two sizes). 57. A pair of Drainwigs , which is just fancy talk for some hair catchers that can hang out in your shower drains.
Nothing throws a wrench in your day like a clogged drain when you're just trying to shower in the morn. Promising review: "I didn't even think about my shower drain being such a problem with hair. We have a relatively new shower and the drain was starting to be slow, but not really a problem because the pipe has a long drop.
I was watching Shark Tank and thought maybe I need to check this out. Wow, there was a lot of hair to clean! Three long-haired girls in the house! I started using this and it pulled all sorts of hair out. We change it about once a month.
Easy to pull out and no breaks or rust. I keep buying!" — Kindle Customer Get a pack of two from Amazon for $6.99 .
58. InstaFire , an eco-friendly fire starter with four fires in a pouch so you'll be set even if you don't remember how to build a campfire from back in your Girl Scout days. (OK, I could if I had to.
) This'll also seriously come in handy if you're all of a sudden interested in camping as a vacay option. Promising review: "This stuff is awesome!!! We used only one pack for our campfire and it kept burning for a long while — well after the logs caught. There was no oily, smelly chemicals or toxic smoke like some fire starters that are paraffin-based.
This burned clean so we had a nice relaxing fire to enjoy — no poking or prodding necessary to get the fire going." — Mooselady Get a three-pack from Amazon for $6.49 .
59. A bottle of Grip Clean heavy-duty soap made with coconut and olive oils so you can get those exceptionally dirty paws hands of yours back to their normal, clean selves. Yes it cleans THIS well but doesn't dry out your hands! Promising review: "I work for the railroad and I am always getting my hands dirty! I could never seem to find anything that worked.
Also, I live in Utah so when it starts getting cold my hands dry out. Well, with Grip Clean that doesn’t happen! I have my coworkers coming to my locker asking to get some soap since the soap we have at doesn't work as well as Grip Clean!" — Nick Get it from Amazon for $11.50 .
60. An EZPZ mat , aka a no-slip placemat/plate, your toddler will try their best to budge but they won't. MUHAHAHAHHAHA.
Promising review: "Does your child 'feed the dog' during meal time? While this dish won't guarantee they won't continue that fun habit, it sure helps. Instead of 'wiping all the food' off his highchair tray, now my grandson's food sits in this sturdy dish that can't move. And I mean can't! It stays put and the cut pieces are easy to pick up it.
Easy to clean too!" — Reeve Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (and check out the rest of the EZPZ mats ). 61.
A Rapid Ramen Cooker that'll transform a brick of noods into the base for a delish meal in just three minutes in the microwave! 'Tis time to put that ramen you've been hoarding the pantry to tasty use. Promising review: "God's ramen cooker. This thing may seem like just an ordinary Tupperware, but I assure you it will blow that thin plastic garbage out of the water.
It retains heat amazingly and does not bend or falter under extreme temperatures. I'm a college student and I have never felt such joy from making ramen in my small dorm microwave, for a 900-watt I recommend five minutes. Buy this product if you live and breathe air, because it is beautiful.
