35 Mundane But Useful Items You'll Be Glad You Bought
A Bounce wrinkle release spray in a convenient travel size so you can take it with you on your next vacay. Seriously, who has time to iron while traveling?! There's also no telling if that dusty hotel iron is actually going to work. All you have to do is spray, tug the fabric a few times, then smooth the wrinkles away with your hand. It's also perfect for refreshing any clothes you plan to wear a few times during your trip, thanks to the fresh scent.
A pack of duster sponges some reviewers say are even better than the often-sold-out Scrub Daddy Damp Duster (also, why isn't it called the Dust Daddy?!) This is perfect for that annoying caked-on dust that a typical dry duster can't tackle — just dampen it, swipe, then rinse to reuse.
An eight-compartment pill organizer so you can ditch the bulky bottles for something that's way easier to slip in your pocket. You'll also be the hero of your travel group when anybody has a sudden headache.
A Frida Baby rinse cup that's on basically every parent's wishlist for making bath time an absolute breeze. The spout creates a gentle rainfall effect to help make the rinsing process less overwhelming for babies who are a bit suspicious of this whole H2O business. You can also use the other side for a slightly heavier "waterfall" pour that's still gentle enough for even the fussiest toddler. I'm gonna be honest with you, reader — this looks so relaxing I kind of want one for myself.
A suede and leather brush to eliminate the scuffs, oil marks, dirt, and foot impressions that threaten to ruin all your cute warm-weather fits. It has four different sets of bristles so you can scrub as hard or as soft as you want, and it's designed to work by itself — no cleaning solution or soap required!
A set of limited edition wildflower Band-Aids so even your boo-boos will be super cute and match all the sundresses you bought for summer. Or! If you scrape your knee while gardening, these floral cuties will keep the happy vibes going.
A next-level toothbrush your dentist will be so ridiculously proud of you for using. It has the standard bristles you'd expect from any toothbrush, but the game-changer is the extra-long bristles that are 10x thinner — meaning they can reach in between teeth and under the gum line to help sweep away food and residue.
And an electric travel toothbrush that takes up way less space than the one your dentist is always trying to convince you to buy. You'll still get a nice vibrating effect and a helpful 2-minute timer, but it's about the same size as a normal toothbrush!
A 3-in-1 wireless charger so you can power up your iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods at the same time — no more wishing you had way more USB ports near your bed! The standout feature might just be the foldable design, meaning you can take it to the office with you so your noise-canceling AirPods never run out of juice. Imagine having to listen to your co-workers instead?!
A jar opening tool that will be an absolute lifesaver when that jar of Ragu is holding on to the lid like its life depends on it (to be fair, it kind of does). It has four different slots to help open a variety of jar sizes, and there's even a helpful hook at the top to help with pull-tab cans when it's a Chef Boyardee kind of night.
A pack of Neutrogena makeup remover towelettes, which will become your new travel staple since you can take the exact amount of makeup wipes you need instead of bringing an entire pouch or a bulky jar of cleaning balm. You can also bring one with you to refresh your skin while you're out and about running errands when the sun is blazing.
A Pikk-it tool designed to remove the tangled hair/fur that's lodged in your vacuum's roller brush (which is making it WAY less effective btw). You can also use it to spruce up your hairbrushes, so this is basically stray hair's worst enemy.
A set of Tide sink packs so you can easily hand-wash your clothes, meaning you can pack less and re-wear more on your next vacation! Simply fill your sink with warm water, add one sink pack, agitate and soak your items in the water, then rinse, dry, and be thankful for all the extra carry-on space.
An absolutely genius device called a "Supoon" — this perfectly sized spoon not only helps you scrape every last bit of food from the container (think: peanut butter, yogurt, cream cheese, etc.) but also has a unique design that keeps it away from the countertop when you set it down! This is about to prevent SO many "babe, stop leaving your peanut butter spoon on the counter" arguments.
Suction cup knobs that are about to completely change your bathroom storage game. The twist-and-lock design can easily adhere to glass, plastic, mirror, or porcelain surfaces — and it holds up to 15 pounds! You can also easily remove them and place them in a new area as many times as you want, so your loofah knobs can become your hand towel knobs with ease.
Miss Mouth's Messy Eater Stain Treater Spray — it's so effective that you'll remain suspiciously calm the next time your tot's chocolate milk makes its way from their sippy cup to the couch cushion. Or when your glass of merlot faces a similar fate. Just spray, blot, rinse, and pour another.
A bottle of sulfate-free biotin shampoo that has reviewers feeling like they're the star of a Pantene commercial. Biotin can help provide a fuller appearance to your strands (hello volume!!!), while rosemary and coconut oil are known to moisturize the scalp (bye-bye, itchiness). You'll be ~toss, tossing~ your hair like Glinda in no time. 💁♀️
A pack of LeakLocks Toiletry Skins — they slip over the caps of your liquid toiletries to help prevent leaks! Genius! Imagine never worrying about your sunscreen exploding and making an absolute mess of your fave toiletry bag.
A genius brush and squeegee combo so you can just swipe all your countertop messes directly into the sink. It even has a built-in ledge so you can hang it when not in use.
A ridiculously helpful eyelash comb to solve one of the biggest beauty dilemmas: what do I do when my mascara clumps?! Put down the makeup wipes — this helpful little comb will remove the excess mascara and separate your lashes at the same time. It's also perfect if eyelash curlers make your lashes look smushed together.
An on-the-go Gillette razor with a mini handle and carrying case that makes it an absolute breeze to pack in your carry-on. But you don't have to sacrifice quality for convenience — this has five blades for a close shave and moisturizing strips infused with avocado oil to keep your skin feeling silky smooth.
A pack of antibacterial paper soap sheets that will seriously come in handy when the public restroom you're using is out of that mysterious pink sludge they call soap. Just pull out a sheet, wet it, then get to lathering.
A storage strip to keep your brooms and mops off the floor and free up some much-needed space in your utility closet. It might even convince you to clean more, but no promises.
A no-scrub weekly shower cleaner that'll stop soap scum and residue from forming before they have a chance to take over your entire tub. Just spray and walk away — your future self will be so grateful.
A set of fridge bins to add some order to your chaotic mess of groceries. And because you'll be able to actually see all your food, you might just end up using that bag of lettuce before it goes bad.
A pack of all-natural bottle-cleaning tablets that'll help remove stains and odors from any water bottles or coffee tumblers that you've left unwashed for an embarrassingly long time. It happens. Just fill your cup with warm water, drop the tablet in, and wait 15–30 minutes; rinse your cup, then get back to hydrating and/or caffeinating yourself.
Over-the-door shelves for storing other smaller accessories that are scattered all over your home. Actually, you might want one of these for every door in your home. Many reviewers use it to store socks, undergarments, and other clothing items, though it's also perfect for kitchen pantries and linen closets!
The beloved Hard as Hoof nourishing cream made with beeswax and jojoba oil to condition brittle nails and cuticles (on your fingers AND toes!) and have them looking as shiny and fresh as they did before that gel manicure did its damage. It's designed to sink in quickly (a rare feat in the world of cuticle oils) and it also smells like coconuts. I probably should have led with the coconut part. 🥥 🤤
A universal travel adapter you can use in over 160 countries — because nothing is more annoying than realizing you forgot to bring the right adapter. You can use it to charge up several devices at a time, so you can have your phone, power bank, laptop, and AirPods charging at once!
A reusable gel lint roller that's a major upgrade from the traditional sticky rolls that require approximately 10 sheets just to clean one shirt. Just pop open the cover and roll it over any garments that need a good sprucing up, then give it a quick rinse, and it'll be ready to use again!
A garbage disposal cleaner — it can tackle any food residue that's been lingering in there for far too long. It makes you realize adulthood is just learning about all the things you never realized you were supposed to be cleaning.
A pack of space-saving compression bags that do not require a vacuum or pump!! Just place your bulky coats and sweaters inside and roll the bag up tightly to release the air and save some major space in your carry-on.
A pair of handheld scrapers — they'll make your cast iron pans look as good as the day you bought them. It's gentle enough to use on nonstick surfaces, and unlike a sponge, this won't trap a bunch of food particles that are hard to rinse out. Now you can spend less time cleaning and more time whipping up culinary masterpieces.
A cult-favorite foot file that'll grind away at calluses and have your heels and toes looking silky smooth and ready to slip into your coziest socks. There are many foot files out there, but more than 85,000 Amazon reviewers say this one works like a charm.

40 Products That Deserve Instant 5-Star Ratings
A pack of antibacterial paper soap sheets for when you walk into a public bathroom, go to wash your hands, and... the soap dispenser is empty (or just suspiciously crusty). Just add a bit of water, and you've got instant, foamy soap that actually smells good. They're small enough to toss in your bag or pocket, making them perfect for travel, camping, school, or any public bathroom that gives you the ick — which, let's be honest, is most of them. A pickle keeper and juice strainer that saves your hands from getting soaked in brine every time you reach into a half-empty jar of pickles or olives. Turn it upside down to drain the juice and grab what you want, then flip it upright, and everything's back in the brine like nothing happened. It's BPA free, airtight, food safe, and yep, dishwasher safe too. Super easy, super handy! Gold Bond's firming neck and chest cream loaded with hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture, a blend of hydrating botanicals, and salicylic acid to gently smooth texture and exfoliate skin. No strong scent, no fancy price tag, just a reliable cream that does what it says. A 3-in-1 wireless charger to juice up your iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods simultaneously without the need for a bunch of cords. Plus, the foldable design makes it travel-friendly, and the anti-slip base ensures your devices stay put, so they won't end up wedged between your bed and nightstand, leaving you awkwardly fishing them out with your fingers. A bottle of hair-building fibers that cling to existing strands, filling in thinning spots and adding a natural-looking fullness. All you do is sprinkle them over your dry hair, pat gently, set with hairspray and you're good to go. They're sweat- and water-resistant, but will wash out easily with your next shampoo. And a root touchup powder if you've got grays or root regrowth showing that you'd prefer... were not. Just dab the included sponge applicator onto the areas you want to cover, and it should seamlessly blend with your hair color — making those roots disappear in seconds while also adding a bit of thickness for a fuller look. It's perfect for last-minute touch-ups between salon visits, and it lasts until your next wash! A tomato knife so you can finally slice them up without tomato guts spilling all over your cutting board. But don't worry, this high-carbon stainless steel blade also effortlessly cuts through pretty much all fruits and veggies — and even hard-boiled eggs. A retinol body lotion that helps smooth out crepey skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. It's a great addition to your routine if you want to keep your skin firm and soft with something gentle but effective. Your future self will thank you every time you catch that glow in the mirror. ✨ Or the best-selling Sol De Janeiro Bum Bum Cream with an ah-mazing, delicious scent that reviewers love; plus, it contains caffeine-rich guarana extract, which can help firm and tighten your skin. It left one reviewer proclaiming, "THIS STUFF HAS CHANGED MY WORLD" — so you know it's gotta be good. A Pikk-it tool that uses fine, sturdy metal prongs to grab every last hair, lint, and bit of gunk hiding in your brush or vacuum — taking it from 'ew' to 'like new' in mere minutes. And it's especially great for those densely bristled round brushes or boar bristle ones that always hang on to every strand. Veet's sensitive hair removal gel because shaving can be such a pain (literally) — from razor burn and nicks to the hassle of checking for missed spots. Apply the cream to your legs, arms, underarms, bikini line, or back, wait a few minutes, and wipe it off for smooth, hair-free skin. Just be sure to do a patch test first! Plus, it's made with aloe vera and vitamin E to keep your skin calm and moisturized, making it a great option for sensitive skin. And a vegan ingrown hair oil for anyone who can't shave or wax without getting itchy, red bumps (especially on the bikini line). It uses natural ingredients like tea tree and jojoba oils to soften and calm the skin, helping it feel smoother while reducing those pesky bumps. An "Everyday Mindfulness"-themed word search book if you're looking for an easy way to chill out and unplug. It has 84 puzzles tied to calm, feel-good energy and is the perfect excuse to take a mindful break that doesn't feel like you're doing homework. The layout's thoughtful, too: the spiral binding lets the pages lie flat, and there's a full answer key so you're never stuck guessing. Plus, some puzzles have hidden messages or clue-based twists to keep things interesting . A brush-and-squeegee combo designed to keep the chaotic mess around your sink neat and clean. One side is a rubber squeegee for slicking water straight into the sink, the other side's got nylon bristles to sweep up crumbs and dry messes. Plus, it's dishwasher safe and hangs right on your sink edge, so it's always within reach! A cervical neck "pillow" if you spend more than a good chunk of your day hunched over a computer. Just lay on this for about 10 minutes a day, and it can help realign your posture and reduce spinal pressure so you don't have to deal with the repercussions of having a shrimp shaped spine. 🦐 A tattoo aftercare salve that makes your ink look brighter, smoother, and way more alive. Made with shea and cocoa butter, it gives your skin natural moisture without feeling greasy or weird. It's great for helping new tats heal and bringing old ones back to life. Basically, if your body art needs a little TLC, this is the move. A bleach-free, no-scrub Wet & Forget shower cleaner you simply spray on, let sit for 8–12 hours while you tackle other chores (and maybe get a manicure), then rinse off with water for a shower so bright and shiny, it'll look like you were in there scrubbing for hours — when in reality, you did almost nothing! A magnetic bobby pin tray to keep all your pins in one spot, so you're not on a wild scavenger hunt every time you need to do your hair. Reviewers say the magnet is super strong, holds a ton, and makes picking them back up ridiculously easy (you just wave it over the bobby pins). A Bluetooth-controlled remote control ring that let's you scroll TikTok, flip pages in your Kindle app, or start recording — all without laying a finger on your phone. Just tap the buttons to swipe, scroll, play/pause, or like posts. It's perfect for those bedtime phone sessions when you want to get cozy without awkwardly bending your arm just to see the screen. A cold gel therapy cap for when your head needs a cozy, cooling hug. It's specifically made for migraines and headaches, so you can just keep it in the freezer and whip it out when the pain strikes. A glasses lens cleaner that uses NASA-developed carbon microfiber tech to effortlessly lift away fingerprints, dust, and oils — so you can 🎶 see clearly now the rain is gone. 🎶 It's compact, easy to use (just open the tongs, wipe, and go), and good for up to 500 cleanings. A jar of the The Pink Stuff, a fan favorite for dealing with hard-to-remove grime and stubborn stains. It's endlessly versatile — you can use it to clean all sorts of messes on most surfaces, from crayon marks on your walls to burnt-on food inside your oven. People basically view it as the final boss of stain removal (and for good reason). A bottle of sulfate-free biotin shampoo with over 36,000 5-star ratings? 🤩 Yes, please. And for under $15 — a total steal. The star ingredient, biotin, can help make your hair look fuller, while rosemary and coconut oils swoop in to nourish and moisturize your scalp. A mold and mildew stain removal gel to help remove stubborn stains and discoloration around shower heads, in between tiles, and on other silicone sealants. It'll make it so much easier to get rid of mold and mildew from the crevices other cleaners miss! A TikTok-viral yerba mate eye gel made with caffeine and hyaluronic acid to help reduce eye puffiness. The cooling sensation helps instantly refresh tired eyes, and reviewers say it absorbs quickly and leaves their skin feeling hydrated (but not greasy)! A toilet wand with disposable cleaning heads to make that dreaded chore quick and easy. All you do is click the handle to attach the scrubbing pad (it's pre-loaded with cleaning solution!), scrub the toilet, and then click it to release the pad into the trash. It really is that simple. And you'll never have to look at a used toilet brush again! A pack of two dark spot-removing soap bars packed with kojic acid, turmeric, retinol, collagen, and vitamin C — aka the dream team for fading dark spots, evening skin tone, and giving your complexion that ✨lit-from-within✨ vibe. They lather up nicely, smells great, and are gentle enough for everyday use on your face, underarms, inner thighs, and more. A super-long duster so you can finally rid your ceiling fans and chandeliers of cobwebs and other debris without the need for a ladder. The bendy microfiber head twists and turns to reach all those tricky spots, and when it's all dirty, just pop it off and toss it in the wash. Easy, breezy, and no more excuses for letting dust build up! A hydrating Cosrx repairing essence with a *deeply* hydrating formula that can help you glow like a baby hippo, calm redness/irritation, and even help reduce the appearance of fine lines. Reviewers love how soft and supple it makes their skin feel. Just apply after cleansing and toning, and you'll understand why this stuff has earned over 56,000 5-star ratings! A pair of Nippies so you can wear that cute (and sexy) backless dress without any straps ruining the fit. Reviewers say these look seamless and stay *put* no matter how much moving or sweating you're doing (likely both if you're at the club 🕺) — which is really all we want from our pasties. They're even available in a style that provides a bit of lift, as shown below! A reviewer-beloved veggie chopper for keeping your counter tidy while speeding up your prep time. If you love to cook but hate chopping (who doesn't, right?), this thing is a lifesaver. It chops just about everything — onions, peppers, zucchinis, potatoes, you name it! Plus, it comes with different blades for slicing, dicing, and even spiraling your favorite veggies. A residue-free pomade hair wax stick because we all have baby hairs and flyaways, and sometimes you want to tame them for the perfect slick-back look. Reviewers with all different hair types vouch for how well this stuff holds up, whether they're working out or braving the elements — one reviewer even calls it their "weapon against humidity." A storage strip to handle those annoying brooms, mops, rakes, and shovels that are always falling over. This rack has four slots, four hooks, and can hold up to 40 pounds, so it'll keep everything neatly stored and off the floor. An adorable, roomy duffel bag with quite the resume. It's durable and water-resistant; plus, it has long handles to easily lug it around, a side panel to hook it onto a suitcase, and compartments to keep your wet/dirty clothes separate from your clean ones — check, check, check, and check. A slicker brush to restore your matted fur (or faux-fur) rugs and jackets to their original fluffiness. With a handle designed for easy, comfortable use, it helps make sure your fleece sweater doesn't end up looking like it survived an apocalypse. A small HappyLight sunlamp for when you're feeling a little blah on those gray, gloomy days. It gives off bright, natural, UV-free light to help boost your mood, energy, and focus when the real sun's not showing up. You can adjust the brightness, swap out lenses, and even mount it on the wall or stand it on your desk. A styling station to help streamline your hair routine. It has three roomy, silicone-lined compartments, so you can safely stash your hot tools (even while they're still cooling down) without worrying about burning your counters. It also has a built-in cord storage pocket in the back to keep cables neat and tangle-free. Some Pink Miracle shoe cleaner that'll reset your go-to white sneakers after they've endured muddy puddles and sidewalk dirt. This fan-favorite shoe cleaner works on everything from canvas to leather and suede — just dip the included brush in water, put a few drops of solution on it, and get to scrubbing! A set of Lock Laces if you're over untying and retying your shoes over and over (and over). Just lace these in, tug the toggle, and you're set! The stretchy design flexes with your foot for a snug, comfortable fit that won't loosen as you run around. A handy double-sided brush that cleans both sides of your knife with stiff bristles, scrubbing away gunk while keeping your fingers safe from the blade.

33 Products To Discover Just How Productive You Can Be
A sunrise alarm clock that gently wakes your body up *on time* instead of that traumatizing iPhone alarm sound (you know the one). This wakes you up to the sounds of nature with a light that gradually brightens half an hour before your set alarm time so that you don't start your day on the wrong side of the bed. A Two Minute Mornings daily journal because a productive day can come down to something as simple as how you start your morning.
