If you're still solely relying on disposable period products, I just want to talk...
1. An acne-clearing lotion created especially for your bum that features an anti-bacterial and moisturizing formula with tea tree oil to help reduce breakouts. This innovative skincare product will help make sure your rear is acne-free and ready to show off.
Read more about tea tree oil: how it can help with acne from Mayo Clinic.
Promising review:"This product works, but takes time! I have really bad stubborn acne on my butt and thighs... this product did not clear them up right away, considering I have bad acne so that was to be expected. I am now on week three and am finally noticing a difference in the acne. It is actually mostly clear! if you are willing to wait for the results then this is a good product for you. I noticed if you stop using (which I did for a period of time) the acne does come back! So I would use for awhile after skin has healed as well. This is definitely needed for summer time! Thank you so much for making this product, seems to be the only thing that worked for me!" — Anonymous
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
2. A set of reviewer-beloved reusable silicone Nippies, which allow you to wear your favorite tops and dresses without worrying about stubborn bra straps or nipples showing.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Natalie Brown has tried these and raves: "I've worn them four or five times now, washing with hand soap and water afterward every time as directed, and they're exactly what I needed! It's simple: you stick 'em onto clean, dry, lotion-free skin, and they stay put and comfy for hours, even through moderate sweat. They've performed perfectly every time I've worn them: for day-long shopping excursions, outdoor parties, and for nights out dancing. They come in a small reusable storage box with two stiff plastic domes for them to sit on, so they'll stay perfectly intact and dust-free in your drawer and are easy to pack for travel. Oh and over 14,000 reviewers — like, five times the number of people in my high school graduating class — have rated them 5-stars on Amazon, so I know I'm not alone in my success with them!"
Promising review: " This is probably the third pair I've purchased over the past several years. I mainly wear them when we go on vacations to warm places and I have a dress or something with an open back. They stick well, clean up well, and have lasted... [over eight] hours in the tropical humid heat on numerous occasions! Love how seamless they are too!" — Randi N.
Get it from Amazon for $26.50+ (available in two sizes, with or without lift, and five shades).
3. A bottle of Bio-Oil with over 38,000 5-star ratings because of how effectively it helps fade scars, stretch marks, dark spots, and acne marks. Its moisturizing, multipurpose formula features rosemary, chamomile, and lavender oils, along with vitamins A and E, for a skin-soothing all-over oil.
Promising review:"AMAZING PRODUCT! I am amazed! I wash my face with Cetaphil gentle cleanser while in the shower, and immediately after getting out of the shower put BioOil on my skin. That is all I do. I do have a spot treatment from Neutrogena with 10% maximum-strength benzoyl peroxide for those SUPER STUBBORN pimples, but hardly use it since starting with BioOil. I will forever use this product and recommend when I can. I have olive-toned, freckled, medium to dry skin with oily nose and forehead, adult hormonal acne and hyperpigmentation. BioOil has given me a literal GLOW! I feel confident with my face again. I hardly leave reviews, but this product deserves it! Good luck on your healthy skin journey." — Amazon Customer
Get a 2-oz. bottle from Amazon for $11.12+ (also available in 6.7 oz. and 4.2 oz.).
4. A bottle of signature Fur Oil designed for softening and cleansing pubic hair and skin to tackle those pesky ingrowns and deliver more moisturized and smoother skin below the belt.
Promising reviews:"I am prone to ingrown hairs. I have VERY coarse pubic hair and every time I shave, I get razor bumps and ingrown hairs as the hair starts to grow back. Very embarrassing. This has led me to lean more toward trimming that shaving. I decided to try to shave one more time — well, I used Nair and removed my pubic hair from my genital area. I used Fur Oil every day morning and night after the removal, and even as the hair grows back and beyond. I would also exfoliate the area about two to three times a week with a coffee scrub that I got on here. The hair has started to grow back with zero bumps or ingrown hairs. It has actually been over a month and still no issues. This has never happened to me before. I have never not removed hair down there and not had ingrown hairs and hair bumps. This is a new experience for me, and I am loving it. I have even removed hair again since then and still no problems..." — In the know
"Recommended to me by my waxer. I was a little hesitant at first because it's pretty expensive, but I haven't had a single ingrown hair since using this oil. I am diligent on application of the oil, and it's been great. It lasts — I've been using it for about two months, and there's still a ton in the bottle." — Megan Harmeyer
Get it from Amazon for $28+ (available in 0.5-oz. and 2.5-oz.).
5. An avocado heating pad that boasts a soothing lavender scent to help whisk you away to a place of comfort (read: your bed or couch). It takes less than two minutes in the microwave to get this huggable heating pad to a temperature that'll help with cramps and other body aches, so you can start feeling better in a jiffy!
Promising review:"This little guy is amazing. Bought it for cramping and it's so warm and comfy. It really helps relieve pain and has a nice light lavender scent (definitely not overpowering). Perfect little heating pad, and it's cute, too!" — Kelsey
Get it from Amazon for $27.84 (available in 12 other shapes).
6. A top-rated, alcohol-free oral rinse for anyone struggling with keeping their breath fresh even after a thorough brush and floss routine. Not to mention, it helps combat bad breath caused by allergies or nasal drips, which is great because, until those clear up, there's not much you can do!
Pour a capful, swish and gargle for 30 seconds, after you've finished brushing your teeth in the morning and at night.
Promising review:"I'm actually a dentist who often has bad breath, which is not a good combination. My oral hygiene is great (tongue scraping, brushing, flossing, etc.), but I have allergies and constantly have a bit of post-nasal drip, which contributes to the bad breath. While this stuff isn't perfect, and my breath doesn't stay fresh all day, it is definitely the longest-lasting product I have tried so far. It is the first thing I have tried that still gives me that minty feeling when I breathe deep 4–6 hours after using it. I've found that gargling and using the TheraBreath throat spray in addition to rinsing with this have greatly improved my breath. Will definitely be buying again." — Alex
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $15.34 (also available in mild mint).
7. SweatBlock antiperspirant wipes with a clinical strength formula to help put a stop to excessive sweating for anyone constantly drenched, no matter the occasion. Each application works for up to seven sweat-free days. 😅
Each application works for up to seven days. As always, this is a clinical-strength product, so make sure you do a spot test first (especially if you have sensitive skin)! And each box lasts two months!
Promising review:"For anyone who might be a skeptic, please allow me to put you at ease. If you have hyperhidrosis, meaning it can be 9 degrees outside and you're still sweating under your arms, this product has the potential to change your life. I would sweat THROUGH a sports coat before noon. Enter the Sweat Block product. I've had it for three weeks, and it is life-changing. I DO NOT sweat under my arms anymore. I'm still on the original box that I bought three weeks ago. I had to write a review after I was cleaning the garage today in 85-degree heat...I was sweating through my shirt on my back...BUT NOT MY UNDERARMS. It is amazing!" — Frosty McGee
Get a 10-pack from Amazon for $19.99 (also available in packs of 20 and 30).
8. And a dermatologist-recommended antiperspirant hand lotion to help reduce hand sweat that might be making everyday things difficult, like writing, opening jars — basically anything that requires dry hand friction. All it takes is a pea-sized amount to help reduce that wet, clammy feeling.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I've suffered with sweaty hands for all of my life. It's an issue that has caused me embarrassment and anxiety where there should be neither. I've only just started using this lotion, but I can tell it's making a difference. It definitely has a distinct drying effect and makes my hands feel smooth." — Gary
Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (available in three scents and packs of two and three).
9. The cult-favorite Laneige lip sleeping mask — it's earned over 37,000 5-star ratings from customers who've transformed their dry, chapped lips by using this overnight balm. A hydrating blend of coconut oil, shea butter, and murumuru seed butter helps soften lips, but there's also a glossy finish in case you ever want to wear it out!
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Maitland Quitmeyer uses this product, and here's what she has to say:"I use this lip mask all the time! If I have severely dry lips, I'll reach for my Aquaphor lip repair (also a holy grail), but for everyday use, this mask is great — I even use it in the daytime, too! The shine is pretty enough for Zoom meetings, too!"
Promising review: "BEST PURCHASE! I am pretty sure I have postpartum chapped/dry lips because of breastfeeding. I never had this issue of having to deal with chapped lips. I literally tried lip scrubs, balms, Vaseline even, and nothing worked, but I am gonna be honest, the first time I used this product, I literally saw instant results overnight! I know I can be on a little pricy side, but if you want to get your chapped/dry lips taken care of, PLEASE buy this product; it's HANDS DOWN THE BEST!!!" — Abdullah S.
Get it from Amazon for $24 (available in six colors/scents).
10. Some Sevích hairline shadow, so you can conceal graying roots and thinning hair without dropping $$$ at a salon. This simple powder also delivers the appearance of thicker hair, so everyone will think you spent your weekend doing all sorts of witchcraft to completely eliminate your grays. 🪄
It's also cruelty-free and contains nontoxic plant fibers and beeswax, so it's safe to use on your scalp and skin!
Promising review:"My hair is thinning on top and at the crown, and this powder is just what I need. A few dabs along the part and at my crown, and it dims down the shining scalp and makes my bald spots much less obvious. It doesn't rub off easily and is sprinkle-proof. I got caught in the rain and it had no effect on it, yet it washed off easily. I used it on my eyebrows with a stiff, angled brow brush, and it worked GREAT, too! My hairdresser used this on me and advised me as to the color. I have medium ash brown with grey hair, so she advised the gray (I got the darker gray), and even though I thought it kinda looked dark in the pot, it was perfect for me. If you have a problem with thinning hair and want a quick, inexpensive hack, this is your product." — D. Kauble
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in 13 shades and three sizes).
11. A pack of Mighty Patches designed to practically disappear your pus-filled blemishes and pimples with barely any effort. Whether you wear them to sleep or throughout the day, these circular patches work their absorbent magic over the course of a few hours, aka right before your eyes.
Promising review:"These patches are great for white heads. I personally put these on right after I wash my face and let my skin dry. The patch will absorb the gunk from your blemish preventing the bacteria from spreading to other parts of the skin. These speed up the healing process as well. They stick very well but only to clean and dry skin. They come off easily when you need them to without causing any discomfort. I always need to have these on hand!" — Tristan Schultz
Get a 36-pack from Amazon for $12.99.
12. Or these XL Surface Mighty Patches, which can tackle several pus-filled pimples or zits at once in larger areas (like your jawline, back, or neck). Get at those blemishes in harder-to-reach areas and worry less as the hydrocolloid works overnight. Oh, and even if you move around in your sleep, these sticky strips won't budge!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Each strip is 2 inches long and can be cut into smaller sizes if necessary.
Promising review:"Amazing! I was using a number of little patches on large areas and they just didn't work that well. I put this patch on my chin and left it over night and was extremely pleased with the results. I had two little pimples and a bunch of hard-to-get blackheads. My chin has never been more clear. It basically feels like those clear waterproof Band-Aids so it did not slide off during the night. I was so surprised and a little grossed out that so much gunk was in my chin. I highly recommend these patches!" — Erin Brown
Get a 10-pack from Amazon for $17.89.
13. Medicated, waterproof bandages to help protect your warts while also helping exfoliate them from your skin if freezing hasn't been giving you the results you want. Over 38,000 customers have rated it 5-stars for its jaw-dropping results (some after just one application)!
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"More than six years with a large, sometimes painful plantar wart on the bottom of my foot. The doctor tried freezing. I tried apple cider vinegar, aspirin, freezing at home, over and over again...nothing worked. Never showing the bottom of my feet, refusing to get a pedicure with the girls, and so, so embarrassed...It felt like I was doomed to have it for forever; it was resistant to everything. Literally six years of fighting it and on a whim tried these because of the good reviews. ONE APPLICATION. I wore the bandage overnight. I didn't think it did anything, but a few days later the wart just came off. I know it's silly to be so emotional over a stupid wart, but I'm telling you, I nearly cried. I've never been so happy with a product in my life. Highly, highly recommend giving these a try if you've got stubborn plantar warts." — Liz Dube
Get a pack of 14 from Amazon for $7.29.
14. A three-step cradle cap system for gently removing flakes from your little one's scalp. Simply soap up the included double-sided sponge brush and massage in circular motions on their head, and finally use the fine-tooth comb to lift the flakes away!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
The kit includes a double-sided foam sponge and bristle brush, a fine-tooth comb, and a storage stand.
Read more about cradle cap — aka seborrheic dermatitis — at Seattle Children's and the American Academy of Dermatology.
Promising review:" A must-have for newborns. My 6-week-old had bad cradle cap and this brush worked miracles. I wish I had it from birth. We have continued to use this brush even though the cradle cap has gone and it does wonders on the scalp and keeping the hair looking healthy. Highly highly recommend. Plus, my baby enjoys the gentle scalp massage from the soft bristles." — LM01
Get it from Amazon for $14.39.
15. A set of Sea Bands that are designed to help reduce nausea by applying pressure to a specific acupoint on your wrist. Now, you might not have to miss out on valuable vacation moments or family time due to motion sickness!
Read more about acupressure and nausea at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
Promising reviews:" Purchased these for a trip to DisneyWorld for an 11 year old who gets extremely motion sick. Every single day she wore them, she was fantastic, whether in the car, on rides, monorail, etc... Not only did it work for her, it also avoids the need for ingesting medications like dramamine which can make kids sleepy or even taking Tums to quiet their stomach AFTER they already feel sick. It may be the power of suggestion, but it absolutely saved our trip!" — Karen M. Johnson
"So, it turns out I get VR-related motion sickness. That got me pretty upset since really like VR gaming. A friend of mine got pregnant and told me she bought a pair of these to deal with morning sickness, and I thought I'd give them a try. Turns out they work great. I can wear these and game with my Oculus for hours." — James Brummett
Get a set of two from Amazon for $8.59 (available in five colors).
16. A travel-size Poo-Pourri — it's small enough to carry around in your purse or pocket, so you never have to worry about leaving public restrooms or friends' washrooms smelling stinky. When you gotta go, you gotta go, but this will make it a lot more discreet.
Promising review:"I like this spray. It smells really good and is small but great to put in your purse in case you go into someone house and use there bathroom and don't want to leave a smell. I love this brand so much I went online and got a bigger bottle. I would highly recommend it because it really works great." — kiara
Get it from Amazon for $3.99+ (available in six sizes).

Promising review:"I'm big, so my inner thighs have always been darker than the other parts of my legs. I've tried other products for it but nothing has worked. I HAVE BEEN USING THIS SOAP FOR THREE DAYS AND OMG!!!! My inner thighs are SMOOTHER, and they are ALMOST THE SAME COLOR AS THE OTHER PARTS OF MY LEGS, I'M SO SO SO HAPPY!!!!

The reviewer above used this facial serum to cover up a bad sunburn!
Promising review:"I think this is a wonderful product and I highly recommend it to anyone who fights facial redness. I sometimes wear it alone, but under cream foundation and light powder it works even better. I was totally amazed at how much it evened out my skin tone! And honestly I didn't think it could be done." — Chris
Get it from Amazon for $36 (available in three shades).
19. Handmade Heroes Vegan Coconut Lip Scrub — don't you agree your lips deserve some TLC, too? This pocket-sized powerhouse is designed to exfoliate dry skin on your lips and leave them with a moisturized, rejuvenated appearance thanks to a blend of avocado oil, jojoba oil, and sweet almond oil.

Promising review:"I absolutely love my scrub. It did exactly what it is supposed to, exfoliate my lips. It is unscented, except from the natural coconut from the oil. I highly recommend this. The packaging is super cute too. A bit larger than I was expecting, so bonus. 😁" — Lillyannah
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
20. TruSkin Vitamin C Face Serum, a splurge-worthy serum that has earned over 95,000 5-star ratings for how efficiently it brightens and firms skin — reviewers say they've noticed unbelievable results within weeks! The effective blend of vitamins C and E, plus hyaluronic acid helps reduce wrinkles and the appearance of dark spots with regular use. Definitely worth the hype.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
TruSkin Naturals is a small business creating unique skincare products.
Promising review: "TruSkin Vitamin C Skin Serum has been nothing short of a revelation for my skincare routine. From the very first application, I could tell this was a game changer.

Promising review:"AMAZING!!! Seriously beyond impressed with this product. I've never had dry or cracked heels until recently, and I've tried everything I could find to get rid of them. This is all you need!!! I literally opened the box and did this in less than a minute! I'll never use anything else! Even better than professional pedicures!!!" — Kyla Jackson

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 to be very careful not to leave it on longer than three or four minutes. My feet were the softest they have ever been. Love love love." — Cheri whisker
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in two scents).
23. A wildly popular Nizoral anti-dandruff shampoo with a 4.6/5-stars rating from reviewers for how effectively it helps provide relief for itchy scalps while fighting dandruff.

The brand recommends using it every three to four days for up to eight weeks for best results.
Promising review:"For so many years I couldn't wear black, would have to dust my chair off, and was constantly moisturizing my nose and face. One day, a doctor friend suggested I try this out for my nose, she didn't know I suffered with severe dandruff as well. She then told me to use it on my scalp as well. At first it did nothing. Then magically after say, the third week of using this off and on, I noticed a difference. I now have almost zero dandruff, 10,000 percent better and I no longer have a dry flaky nose, brow, or beard area. My face is no longer red as well. This has been a miracle cure for me. One I take for granted but quickly remember when I put on a black shirt or check my chair for an embarrassing snow storm. Try it!!!" — Grumpy Dad
Get it from Amazon for $15.88 (also available with conditioner).
24. A must-have and infinitely washable face roller for anyone with oily skin. Its volcanic stone roller ball soaks up excess oil and delivers an instant matte finish in seconds, leaving your makeup intact. A shiny T-Zone will never get you down when you've got a magic stick like this with you!
Amazon
Promising review:"I have super oily skin and am always looking for something to help control it during the day. The linen squares are good but you have to keep them around (aka keep replacing them) and they end up in the landfill. This little contraption really works and I just rinse it at the end of the day and start over again the next. I keep one in my desk and bought a second for my purse. This is magic for my shiny skin, especially on camera in my hours of Zoom everyday." — Jennifer Helseth
Get it from Amazon for $8.45.
25. Or these blotting papers to absorb and help remove excess oil from your T-zone. If you're a combination-oily person like me, these deserve a dedicated place in your purse, toiletry bag, etc. Plus, using them won't mess up your makeup; just remember to blot, not wipe!
Promising review:"I have been using these for over one year, and they are by far the best oil blotting sheets I have ever used. The biggest plus is that they do not smudge my makeup at all, so no touch-ups are needed after using. They are super absorbent, and I can blot my entire face with one sheet. I have them on a monthly subscription, and they are worth every penny. Highly recommend!" — AKRP2380

www.amazon.com
Promising review: "My 6-year-old daughter has keratosis pilaris, commonly known as 'chicken skin.' This year it really flared up during warm weather so I gave this wash along with lotion a try. Wow, I saw results after just a few uses and after a couple of weeks most of her bumps disappeared. Thrilled we skipped a trip to the dermatologist! Can't beat this price for the results either." — Ashley Steigerwald
Get it from Amazon for $13.99.
27. O'Keeffe's Working Hands hand cream helps transform and soothe dry, cracked skin with a protective moisture layer that delivers hydrating relief.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"My hands suffer every winter with not only dryness, but also cracking around the fingertips. I've tried many creams, lotions and paint on products that would work temporarily, if at all. I saw a commercial for O'Keeffe's Working Hands Cream and read many, many reviews on the the product. I've tried it and all I can say is that it's a miracle. The dryness has left my hands and my fingertips are well on the way towards healing....and this is after only two days of use. I wish I had found it years ago. It would have saved me lots of pain, agony and money." — Desert D
Get it from Amazon for $8.90.
28. A stainless-steel blackhead spatuala for anyone who doesn't even have enough time in their day to schedule a facial, let alone actually get one. This easy-to-use scrubber helps unclog pores using high-frequency vibrations, which helps you have skin that better absorbs your favorite skincare products. Each cycle runs for just five minutes before automatically shutting off, and TBH that's all you need for a satisfying daily clean!
See it in action on TikTok here.
I got a facial a couple of years ago and I could tell something was different about my extractions, so I asked the aesthetician to write down the name of the product. I went home and immediately bought this! I LOVE IT. I love it more than any other skincare tool that I own. This thing gets gunk out like nothing I've ever tried before, and the first time I used it, I was absolutely disgusted. But I kept on using it. I don't have much acne, but I do have oily combination skin and visibly clogged pores, so this has been a lifesaver when I don't have time to visit an aesthetician. You have to use it while your face is still wet, so after washing your face or even using toner, and you just start scraping. Make sure you have a paper towel near (and maybe a camera) because you will be amazed and disgusted all at once, but you will literally never stop using. I use mine every other day to once a week if I'm having skincare issues, but it also does a great job with monthly use (it's just much grosser)! I follow mine up with Clinique's Clarifying Lotion 3 and Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel!
Promising review:"Don't doubt it, a staple in skincare. I got this little device from a TikTok and decided to give it a try. I never knew I needed it until the first time I tried it. The vibrations magically bring up all the stubborn blackheads you can't reach with just your fingers, especially if you have acrylics like me." — Paige Chaney

Amazon, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"This stuff really is awesome. It really works and I don't know where it has been all my life. I started looking for something for thigh chafing after running into a few issues (not fun). It is super easy to use, just slide it on like you'd use deodorant." — SweetPea
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in three sizes; also available in an anti-blister balm).
31. *AND* an aluminum-free, lotion-to-powder anti-chafing cream specially made for the nuts, the family jewels, the rocks below the surface. It's designed for odor control and sweat defense, so no matter what you've been up to, everything still feels fresh at the end of the day.

Promising reviews:"This provides relief to the heartbreak of sweating balls all day. Your balls will be cool and dry all day and will thank you for the week to come." — Tech Guy
"I like the smell. A sweat-proof product that will last a hot 10-hour shift in hot weather. When I say hot weather, 90 degrees or less it's an effective product. No chafing, and balls are bone dry." — Robert Wind
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
32. An itty-bitty toenail brace set, so you can help reverse painful ingrown nails in no time with barely any effort at all.

www.amazon.com
The kit comes with 10 toenail braces and the materials needed to apply it, including a nail file, solvent, and cotton swabs.
Promising review:"I never realized how curved my toenails were. I thought the pain I had was just normal and a fact of life. Only when I read about the Curve Correct product, did I realize that I had a major problem, and it could be resolved! Now I'm on the way to normal, flat toenails, that DON'T grow curved into my skin!" — Jamie H.
Get the kit from Amazon for $44.99.
33. A heat-activated anti-frizz treatment — you can't predict the weather, and you definitely can't predict when frizz is going to literally cramp your style! But this magical, moisture-repellent, anti-humidity product goes into your hair before blowdrying to deliver some serious, can't-believe-it-until-you-see-it results.
www.amazon.com
The short version: it works like an keratin treatment.
Promising review: This product is incredible — just WOW. In all my years of existence, I was never able to tame my naturally curly hair into a sleek, silky, frizz-free look, until now. I l don't know what kind of magical sorcery went into making this product, but this stuff is amazing. — Lillee45
Get it from Amazon for $12+ (available in two sizes).
34. A super cute set of six silicone Kegel weights because pelvic floor exercises definitely count as a workout and can lead to great results like improved bladder control and more pleasurable sex.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
The silicone material means these kegel weights are very simple to clean, with either sex toy cleaners or mild soap and water.
Promising review:"Since starting, my bladder control has significantly improved. I am now able to sneeze or cough without peeing myself. Yes, that's right. I am able to hold my pee longer, which means I can actually make it to the bathroom without dribbling on myself. The best part is that just a few short weeks into the program you will have results you can feel. I think [anyone] who has ever had kids should try this, out. The overall quality of my life has improved. Ditch your panty liners, stop the embarrassing dribbles, no more mad dashes to the rest room because of a weak bladder. Even my sex life has improved; I have control of those pelvic muscles now. Just remember to wash the weights before and after each use. Easy to use, easy to clean, stores away quickly." — Julie Tauber
Get a set of six weights from Amazon for $49.98.

Promising review:"This is one of those things that I wish I'd found years earlier. I've suffered from mortifying stress-induced under-boob sweat for most of my adult life. Also, I'm a lifelong Seattle girl who gets upset when it's warmer than 65 degrees outside. So when I stumbled upon this product, I was curious enough to buy a small pack. And yes, I've come back for MORE! For real, I won't put on a bra without one of these liners now. It absorbs all the moisture from heat and stress. And because it's a really soft bamboo/cotton mix, my skin is finally not feeling tortured under there! To the makers of this ingenious life-changing product: thank you thank you thank you!

Promising review: "After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me; smells great too. Here's how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt is visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, then I used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away.

www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I used to pay a professional to dermaplane my face once a month to remove the peach fuzz, which makes the makeup application more cumbersome. I searched for years for a home product to use to save money and time. This is the closest I have been able to get to professional dermaplaning in the convenience of my home, on my time/schedule, and at a fraction of the price. Love it!" — SEM1969

Samsung's Galaxy Watch 8 just came out and you can already save $50
If you're looking to upgrade an older Android smartwatch, or want to give wearables a try for the first time, Samsung's Galaxy Watch 8 is a compelling choice. It has a new design, lets you access Google's Gemini AI from your wrist, and has a handful of new health and wellness features. It launched on July 25th, but you can already get the 40mm model on sale for $299.99 ($50 off) from Samsung. Amazon has the watch for full price, but is offering a $50 promotional credit toward a future purchase if you use the code APSUE5MBXB6Y at checkout. Samsung's latest smartwatch features a new squircle design, Gemini, and some new health features like an Antioxidant Index and Running Coach. The Galaxy Watch 8 is squircle shaped, which may be divisive, but allows it to lay flatter and Verge reporter Victoria Song found it fit more more comfortably on her wrist in her review. The change also let Samsung make the watch thinner than the Galaxy Watch 7, and yet we still found it can still last more than a day on a charge. While it's not a huge departure from its predecessor, it could be a good upgrade for anyone with a Galaxy Watch 5 or below, and Samsung's new discount counteracts the $50 price increase means you're not paying any more than the Galaxy Watch 7 cost at launch. If you've gotten used to Google Gemini on your smartphone or computer, the Galaxy Watch 8 will let you access it from your wrist – we created playlists, checked the weather, and have previously asked Gemini whether it's necessary to scrub a sweet potato before peeling it. On the health and wellness side, the Galaxy Watch 8 can track steps, your heart rate, blood oxygen level, steps, and activity. If you have a Samsung Galaxy phone, you use the smartwatch to take an EKG or detect sleep apnea. A new feature called Running Coach will put you through a 12-minute run test, give you a grade from one through 10, and create a workout program based on your performance. It also includes sensors designed to detect whether you're eating enough fruits and vegetables, but we found it can be fooled by colorful objects, including a Cheeze-It. The Galaxy Watch 8 is also available in a 44mm size, and that model is also on sale for $379.99 ($50 off) from up for Verge Deals to get deals on products we've tested sent to your inbox weekly.

Even More People Are Sharing The Ways They've "Won The Genetic Lottery," And To Say I'm Jealous Is An Understatement
Recently, I wrote an article sharing people's answers to the question, "In what small way have you won the genetic lottery?" and in response, even more people detailed their own genetic "wins." It's always fun to appreciate the positives about yourself, so I decided to share! Here are some of the best: 1."I don't have B.O. when I sweat, and I've read it's a genetic mutation. I don't wear deodorant, and I've gone a whole 10 days without a full shower (camping), and my pits and feet don't smell. Only one of my kids got this genetic gift, and the other kid is so bummed that they started getting B.O. at 11." —Anonymous, 48, Los Angeles, CA 2."I have no wisdom teeth, none. I was also born without tonsils." —Anonymous, 45, Dallas, TX 3."I have naturally long and curled eyelashes. They are blonde, so I have to use mascara, but I've never used an eyelash curler in my life. People assume I'm wearing falsies." —Anonymous, 34, Long Beach, CA Related: 4."I have naturally big lips that people made fun of me for as a child, and now everyone is jealous of my naturally plump big lips. Thanks, Kardashians." NBC —Anonymous, 28, NJ 5."I've had abs since I was 7. I'm female, and neither of my parents has a very athletic build, but it's very easy for me to just always have them. Even if I've gained weight in my face or body, my abs always show through." —Anonymous, 22, PA 6."My irises have gradually turned a gold/yellow color. They're basically a combination of several colors, and, when mixed together, they look gold. I get a lot of comments on them and people ask if I wear contacts." —C., 30s 7."I have never experienced a headache. It's difficult for me to even imagine what it would feel like. Once I had a full-blown migraine attack with sensory aura, nausea, and sensitivity to sounds and smells, but no headache." —Anonymous 8."I've got great skin! Inherited from my mom, who is in her 70s and has never had any work done, but looks like she has. Terrible spine and joint problems, though. 😒" —Anonymous, 43, Brooklyn 9."I'm resistant to COVID-19. Everybody in my workplace got it, and I didn't. My husband even got it, and I still didn't get it." TBS —Anonymous Related: 10."I'm lucky two different ways. I never had wisdom teeth, and I don't get caffeine headaches on days I don't have caffeine." —Anonymous, 45, IL 11."My mom's side of the family has a gene mutation that leads to a very aggressive form of stomach cancer that can't be caught early enough to effectively treat. Turns out, I don't have it! It's one of the gene mutations where if you don't have it, your kids won't either. Neither I nor any of my cousins have it, so we don't have to worry about it anymore!" —Anonymous, 21, AR 12."My hair is not graying. I'm 71 and have long blonde hair. My sister grayed at age 30." "My mother had three sisters. The oldest did not go salt and pepper gray until she was nearly 90. We all thought she was lying and dying it! But then she started going salt and pepper at nearly 90. The second oldest grayed at 50. The third grayed at 40 and the youngest grayed at 30. So it seems that somehow the oldest grays late and the youngest grays early." —Anonymous, 71, TX 13."My dad and I don't get hangovers. My mom, sister, and brother hate that! We do get bad reactions to bug and bee stings, but on the whole, pretty happy about my luck!" —Kristin, 53 Related: 14."I don't really scar. I've had stitches more than once, along with some serious injuries. After about two years, all scars disappear." —Anonymous, 42, CA 15."I'm immune to jellyfish stings! I found this out by swimming through a huge school of jellyfish, and my sister got stung, but I didn't." —Anonymous, 31, MN 16."Mosquitoes don't seem to like me. I've had, maybe, four bites in my life (all before the age of 12, and have had none since). Kind of a weird flex, but super handy!" —Anonymous, 24 17."I have freakishly good eyesight. I can read signs at 35+ feet away. I didn't realize how special that was until I had kids. One can see 20/20, but I can see way farther than him, easily. It's not even close!" "I also have always had clear skin. No acne as a teen! At 46, most people think I'm 30. When I was younger, it was annoying that I always looked so much younger than I was, but now I'm enjoying it and trying to stay in good shape so the inside matches the outside!" —Anonymous, 46, US 18."I was born without tonsils, which is chill because that, plus my immune system, means I've only ever been seriously sick twice, once with COVID and once when I got mono." —Anonymous, 37, CA 19."I'm not allergic to poison ivy/oak/sumac. I've been exposed to all of them often and have never gotten a reaction. I'm either very lucky, or immune, but I don't plan on testing that theory any time soon." —Anonymous, 46, Washington, DC 20."Not a particularly fun or sexy one, but I have naturally low blood pressure, which vastly reduces my long-term risk of stroke and heart disease." —Anonymous, 36, North Carolina Related: 21."I have an extra artery supplying blood to my retina in each eye. It's called a cilioretinal artery. If the main artery is ever damaged or blocked, it can cause immediate vision loss in that eye. My vision would be protected though, because the extra artery would continue to supply blood to my retina." —Anonymous 22."Redhead here! I have extremely decreased pain. (Broke three bones, and each time I had no clue until an X-ray.) I helped someone move on a broken foot! Had no clue until I was limping later." "I'm a woman and was 6'2" by my 13th birthday, so I guess that counts for something too." —Anonymous, 25, GA 23."I have freakishly nimble and long toes that I can pick things up with. It's nice because I don't have to bend over to pick things up." ABC —Anonymous, 36, MA 24."I inherited my dad's ability to not get hangovers, no matter what I drink!" Netflix / Via —Anonymous, 41, TX finally: "I inherited amazing hearing from my grandmother. Many a time, I've heard people whispering in other rooms, and shocked them by commenting on what they'd said." AEW / Via —Anonymous, 38 What d'you think?
