37 Reviewer-Favorite Items You Won't Regret Buying

A viral "Soft" perfume rollerball for anyone who wants people to think of them and think "yum." Reviewers compare this ~$5 fragrance to caramel, lemon cupcakes, warm vanilla scones, cotton candy, and this $65 bottle of Pink Sugar! A high-end bottle of Takesan Kishibori soy sauce if you ever want to learn what you're missing by sticking with grocery store brands. No offense to Kikkoman, but this elevated sauce from Shodoshima, Japan offers a richer, more complex flavor that has happy reviewers pledging their allegiance. Dr. Frederick's Original Better Blister Bandages you need if you have new sandals coming in the mail. The cushioned, water-resistant hydrocolloid bandages speed up the healing process while protecting blisters from further damage. The tapered edges mean you can wear them for a few days in a row without worrying about your new shoes rubbing them off. Medicube's collagen jelly because your face deserves a dessert-like treat, too! Hydrolyzed collagen (collagen that's broken into smaller segments for better skin absorption) works to keep your skin feeling firm, bouncy, and ready to join the #glassskin trend. It also has superstar niacinamide to protect and improve your skin barrier for an added glow. A NeeDoh Gummy Bear offering the perfect amount of squish and stretch for restless hands. The jelly-like filling is encased in a thick, non-sticky plastic so it has just the right amount of give. A sensory heaven worth every penny. A pack of anti-slip glasses sleeves, because pushing your glasses back up your nose stops being cute after the millionth time you have to do it. The soft silicone tips are just over $1 each, which is a steal when it comes to comfort. A pair of crossover flared leggings providing a silhouette so enticing, you'll find yourself getting distracted every time you see your reflection. If the 5,800+ happy reviewers are to be believed, these pants are so comfortable, you'll be asking questions like, "can I wear these to a wedding?" And a super-soft longline sports bra some have compared to Lululemon's Align tank top for an Equinox-level workout look at a Planet Fitness price. Reviewers say it offers a little less compression, so you can wear it on casual days, too. A wildly popular Wet n Wild lipstick that, against all odds, will only cost you a single dollar. You can't even find something that affordable in an actual dollar store anymore! Despite the unreal price, the results are very real: 42,000 happy customers love the long-lasting color, hydration from aloe, and extensive color selection. The Pink Stuff, an all-purpose paste that you can use to clean basically any surface — it works on everything from marble and wood to rubber boots and car steering wheels. Wasting time scrubbing will be a thing of the past. And the future? Sparkly clean items as far as the eye can see. A set of plastic shoe cubbies so you can finally take care of Shoe Mountain. Your guests will appreciate not having to climb over your pile of sneakers, and your fancy boots will appreciate not being squished into pancakes. Laneige's Neo Blurring Powder, a low-maintenance option for makeup minimalists who want a matte, yet still radiant, complexion — essentially Photoshop's blurring tool, but IRL. It absorbs oil and blurs pores, leaving your face super glowy for just $25, which is way less than an Adobe subscription. Hope's Perfect Sink solution that cleans and then basically creates a water-repellant force field over your sink to protect it from stains and damage. It works on everything from stainless steel to porcelain (along with cast iron, corian, composite, acrylic, etc.), ensuring that your sink rinses clean and shines like new, no matter how many cups of coffee you pour on it. Sue Storm would approve! Lottabody Wrap Me Curl Mousse, a whipped-cream-like delight that defines curls, moisturizes with shea and coconut oil, and tackles frizz. The foam makes it super easy to distribute throughout your hair, and the heavenly scent will make you feel like you're on a tropical vacation. 44,000 customers have given this budget-friendly find a thumbs up! A laundry backpack, complete with a mesh pocket for detergent and dryer balls, if you like to wait until truly the last minute to lug your stuff to the laundromat. The heavy duty, tear-resistant drawstring bag has thick straps so you can comfortably carry up to three loads of laundry at once. Brazilian Bum Bum body cream loved by Zoomers (and 40,000+ 5-star raters) for its incredible smell and intense hydration powers. The lotion is a little spendy, but it uses caffeine-packed guarana extract and coconut oil to firm and moisturize skin, leaving it glowing and smelling like a tropical getaway. White caulk tape if you've noticed (and proceeded to ignore) some cracks in your previous caulk job. Use the waterproof sealing tape to fill in gaps before they get any worse and unwanted guests see the bug equivalent of a vacancy sign. Reviewers say this is easier and cleaner looking than liquid caulk, so there's no excuse to keep putting this off! An Elizavecca collagen coating hair protein treatment that takes your dry, tired hair and turns it into the silky-soft locks you've always wanted. Just apply it to wet hair after shampooing, wait five minutes, rinse, and wonder why all hair treatments don't work this well. A blessedly effective, pet-safe carpet cleaner capable of turning your brown carpet into whatever color it was when you bought it without having to invest several hours into a scrub session. Time is money, people! A Medix retinol body lotion because if retinol works so well for your face, it's gotta do wonders for the rest of your body too. With the help of ferulic acid, it encourages skin cell turnover to help tighten and firm skin. One 5-star reviewer (out of 4,700+) says they're obsessed with Medix's whole line of lotions. Or a lightweight gel cream from Nivea with powerful Q10 that helps plump, firm, and moisturize skin in as little as two weeks with consistent use. Over 1,400 reviewers are happy with their results! A box of Color Catcher sheets to prevent the dreaded "all my clothes are now pink from this one stray red sock" debacle. These handy sheets are designed to grab any dye that leaks or bleeds so you can keep enjoying your white tees even if you can't be bothered to sort clothes into lights and darks. A trio of hydrating lip sleeping masks that 150+ reviewers say offers a Laneige-like experience for just a fraction of the price. The berry extract and vitamin C work to moisturize lips as you go to bed, proving that beauty sleep is a real thing. Dawn Powerwash, an impressive spray-on dish soap capable of giving you those clean swipes through nightmarish messes previously only seen in commercials. Spray this on dishes, but you can also use it to tackle dirty range hoods, backsplashes, bathtubs, grills, or anywhere else with caked-on food or dirt. Sure, you can go for the cheap dish soap from the dollar store, but it won't last as long, work as hard, or suds up as well. A set of dermaplaning razors that will make quick work of peach fuzz, stray hairs, and eyebrows in need of a touch-up. They're designed with micro-guards, which means you don't have to worry about nicking yourself, even if you don't have the steadiest hand. Over 170,000 happy customers love that you can extend the time between threading appointments — or skip them altogether. A Pikk-it tool offering a quick solution to one of life's little miseries: wondering why your vacuum isn't sucking (in a good way) and discovering that the brush is completely cocooned in loose hair. This handy tool will free your roller from its hairy prison so it can proceed up more hair. Sorry, "vacuum doesn't work" isn't an excuse to avoid cleaning anymore! E.l.f Lash XTNDR Tubing Mascara, which creates tubing around your lashes to make them appear longer, thicker, and darker. The lightweight "extensions" won't smudge or weigh down your actual lashes and — best of all — they fall right off when you wash your face. No one likes having to scrub their eyes raw trying to get off waterproof makeup. :( A pack of Miracle-Gro water storing crystals that'll prevent both under- *and* over-watering, which I believe are the top two killers of plants. When you water your houseplants, the crystals retain the moisture and release it as the soil dries. Now, if you forget to water your plants for a month and then just drown them in water for a week as an apology, they might survive. A hair-lightening spray to brighten up hair by TWO shades or more! Spritz a little of this citrus and chamomile spray onto damp hair, then activate it with heat-styling tools. I recommend blow drying and hitting it with a curling iron or straightener for the best results. Over 7,000 5-star raters love it because it's less harsh than bleach and even works on dark hair. A miniature Stanley tape measurer keychain so you no longer have to wonder how tall something is and try to guesstimate with your hands. This would come in clutch when furniture shopping or calling out a date for lying about their height (JK, JK). A mint-flavored teeth-whitening pen that's way more convenient than a painful trip to the dentist or an annoying attempt at the strips. Just brush your teeth with the bristled pen whenever you have a minute to work through stains and discoloration (without sensitivity, according to 800 5-star reviewers). A pack of disposable shower hair catchers for people who often forget to clean the drain after a shower and too squeamish to maintain a device like the TubShroom. You can just close your eyes and throw these away when they're too hair-infested. Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel, in case you've always wanted to not only drink the energizing tea, but also wear it. This cult-fave can help quickly minimize eye puffiness and swelling using its combination of caffeine and hyaluronic acid. All for less than the price of a six-pack of White Label! And reviewer-loved Catrice "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener to expertly conceal and brighten dark circles under your eyes. The lightweight, color-adapting formula blends so seamlessly under makeup that your old concealer will throw itself out. Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Body Mist Oil for instant relief from dry skin — a perfect solution for people who hate getting their hands greasy with lotion. You'll find it's a lot easier to keep your skin moisturized when you can just spritz this blend of vitamin E and jojoba oil after the shower or whenever you need a little refresh. A pair of Cushionaire cork-bottom sandals that are not only supremely comfortable, they're also an affordable alternative to Mayari Birks. The similarities go past just looks: They also have 100% genuine suede soles, so your feet will demand you wear these every single day. Mielle's Rosemary Mint strengthening oil, a TikTok-hall-of-famer that almost 7,500 5-star reviews confirm is worth the hype. The biotin-infused serum can help strengthen hair and encourage new growth, leaving hair feeling healthier and fuller. Reviewers say it's helped with everything from receding hairlines to sparse eyebrows.

41 Things You'll Wanna Keep In Your Bag To Squash Summer Problems As Soon As They Materialize Right In Front Of Your Eyes

A reusable sand eraser that'll easily dust off all that stuff stuck to you when you're finally being dragged away from the beach. Now you won't have to worry about making your car (or shower) feel like a sandbox and deal with an uncomfortable journey home. A set of limited edition wildflower Band-Aids so you can cover up all kinds of scratches from "exploring" in the woods behind your house with your toddler. Though, it was full of more sticks than wildflowers. This'll be a cute solution! And a pack of Dr. Frederick's Original Better Blister Bandages made with hydrocolloid to not only avoid rubbing existing blisters, but also to help heal them. A tinted lip balm you'd SWEAR is Clinique's $25 "Almost Lipstick" Black Honey for the lovely, sophisticated hue it'll turn your lips. This is great for people who 1) always want a little lip color, 2) hate a sticky feel, and 3) love a bargain. Sometimes you just need a liiiiiitle something besides your trusty ChapStick to keep you from feeling like a zombie! A Creamy Coconut fragrance rollerball that'll capture the $25 Sol de Janeiro fragrance in those moments on the go when you realize that your perfume has worn off and you're starting to smell yourself. Lanolips SPF 30 lip balm for a nice, light, pineapple-y treat so you don't get back inside after a picnic and start wondering why your lips feel so tight. Your lips needs sunscreen too! But with this, it doesn't taste like you're wearing sunscreen. Neutrogena Dry-Touch SPF 70 Sunscreen because sunscreen is ALWAYS a good idea and this formula is designed to be matte and quick-absorbing. Plus, it's fine for your face and body! Laneige's Neo Blurring Powder that'll stop shine in its tracks without having to dip into a coffee shop bathroom to touch up your makeup. It walks that fine (perfect) line of blurring and keeping you matter without making you look dull. 'Tis the season for your skin to come out of its dry cave and it's always a bit tough to find that perfect in-between! A Briotech spray can help soothe rosacea, eczema, rashes, sunburns, and other skin irritations for when your skin is just not cooperating thanks to hypochlorous acid (it's in your white blood cells and helps soothe inflammation). Tower 28 SOS Daily Rescue Spray is also what some call a miracle in a bottle. But Briotech is in a cheaper bottle you could buy in multiples for each bag. A SPF 50 Airy Sunstick Smoothing Bar for a K-beauty sun fix you can safely throw in your bag and then reapply on the go. It has a slightly curved bar for easier application (like in the GIF!) and matte effect, and won't leave a white cast in its wake. 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. A stick of Gold Bond Friction Defense can stop chafing caused by sweat before it even starts. It's sooo good and better than any other competitor in the thigh-saving category. Toss this in your bag and apply before you go on that long, lovely beach stroll. Lumify Eye Drops beloved by the masses who've tried other redness-reducing eye drops before. Yes, these are a bit pricier than other versions. But reviewers say it's totally worth it! Oh, and don't forget that it's also made to help relieve dry eyes. Dae's Hair Cactus Fruit 3-In-1 Styling Cream & Taming Wand for when you realize in the work bathroom (under HARSH lighting) that your ponytail isn't nearly as slicked-back as you previously thought when you left the house. This lil' guy can help you zero in on flyaways and smooth frizzy spots. (OK, I'm talking about myself here.) A bug bite suction tool that'll help you out with existing bites to remove the irritating venom, and help reduce itchiness, pain, and swollenness. Plus it works on other insect stings. Think about all the scratching you could've saved yourself! A bag Liquid I.V. electrolyte drink mix that I can attest actually does capture that nostalgic, sweet flavor of a firecracker popsicle you always got at the gas station or ice cream truck! Keep one of these handy if you've hit a mid-afternoon slump and realize you've barely had any water today. Pop one of these into a glass of water to help feel hydrated, especially because your neighbor just texted asking if you wanna drink wine on her deck later. A rechargeable handheld fan for hot times spent outside your car's AC — it might just make you think about all those times you said "I wish I had a fan." Well now you will. Just be prepared to buy one for each kid. A *foldable* wide-brim hat for helping you keep the sun off of your face, make your outfits look even cuter, and easily fit in your bag without crushing it. Sometimes you realize you need a hat later in the day! ONE/SIZE by Patrick Starr 'Til Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray if you have a lot of requirements for your made-up look. Like, you wanna actually dip in the pool but stay looking matte while you lounge poolside beforehand. Psst, it comes in a mini size perfect for your bag! A set of DEET-free handy mosquito-repelling bracelets in case the thought of putting something else on your skin besides SPF (like smelly bug repellent) sounds like a total nightmare. A set of sunscreen reminder stickers to pair with your body sunscreen so there's someone besides you and your pal who're wading in the waves to remind you that, uh, yes, you do need to reapply! Oh and they last for 12 hours. Once a sticker turns colors, it's time to reapply. An I Dew Care "Tap Secret" mattifying powder shampoo that'll tackle greasy roots without the aerosol formula. AND it comes in six colors, so if white dry shampoo has never quite worked for you, this is worth a shot. A Hairbrella can 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. A set of cooling patches will work some soothing magic for a variety of uses including (perhaps most importantly), sunburn. But it'll also help with itchiness from bug bites and poison ivy. And! They're TSA friendly. So you can probably leave your aloe vera gel at home for your next vacation. A pair of retro-style oval sunglasses your nemesis might mistake for the $400+ Miu Miu ones, which is fine. Let 'em think that and put that extra cash toward whatever else you want. A set of Sea Bands with a little nub that targets the acupressure point on your wrists meant to help reduce nausea. This'll be especially great on car rides, boat rides, or in the chance that you got a little too adventurous with your brunch order last night and a wave of nausea hits you mid-afternoon. A 40-pack of zero-sugar Margaritaville drink mix packets you can simply add to water solo OR used to make an impromptu margarita with water and tequila when your fave neighbor drops by your picnic with some good gossip about the HOA president. Spill! A dog water bottle for your paw-tner in crime, because while you two are out running some errands you're going by the park anyway. You might as well stop for a short stroll. Plus, it comes with a bowl that snaps onto the bottom! A 10 x 9-foot sand-free beach blanket made so sand will roll right off of it. Plus it's big enough to help you lay claim to a good amount of beach space for you and your pals (up to seven adults)! It packs up pretty small so it's a great bet even if you have to ride public transportation to get to the beach (i.e. ME). You're gonna love it for park days too. A compact eight-compartment pill organizer so you'll have space for all the emergency allergy pills and pain killers when last night's happy hour(s) of white wine on a patio is rearing its ugly head on a Wednesday morning at your email job. A pack of Melissa & Doug Reusable Water-Reveal Activity Pads with pens that you can fill with water and then be used to "color" in the pads over and over again. No more worrying about messy crayons or markers while your kid needs something to do on the go that won't make a huge mess. A quirky Sasquatch 12-in-1 multitool that'll lend a hand (and Big Foot) the next time you need to pop open a bottle. A UV-protective mini umbrella for all those random seasonal showers and beyond. It fits into a compact carrying case so it won't feel like a thing to carry it around with you. A scented bag dispenser that'll easily clip onto your diaper bag so you can more easily dispose of stinky diapers. They have baking soda and a lavender scent to help with the odor situation. A JBL portable speaker that's both waterproof *and* dust-proof to clip onto your beach or camping chair in case whatever you're doing needs a background beat. A set of waterproof "wet bags" that'll fold up SO tiny but will be a HUGE help in case you decide to take a dip a the beach, get caught in a rainstorm, or just need to transport wet clothes home for a number of possible reasons. A waterproof pouch for those moments when your pal has the great idea to rent some paddle boats at the park, but said friend ALSO loves to splash for fun. Slip your phone into this pouch to keep it nice and dry. A Java Sock in case you thrive on iced coffee and are barely without one while you're on the go. BUT hate condensation. Keep one of these in your bag and, according to reviewers, it'll keep your coffee cold and paws dry for hours. A travel urinal any parents with a potty-training will appreciate out and about when everyone has to use a "strange" bathroom. Or a Frida Baby fold-and-go potty seat so when your toddler's gotta go in a public bathroom, it's a lot less you've gotta think about. A Neutrogena makeup eraser stick that'll let you do a quick touch-up when you realize that your "waterproof" mascara is starting to slide a bit down your face in the heat.

But with this, it doesn't taste like you're wearing sunscreen. A "boardwalk"-scented spray SPF 30 in case you find yourself on an actual boardwalk during a go-with-the-flow just sipping some wine on a patio where you're DEF in direct sunlight. Oh, and it's in a vegan, water-resistant formula made to protect you for 80 minutes. Or if you prefer a cream, Neutrogena Dry-Touch SPF 70 Sunscreen because sunscreen is ALWAYS a good idea and this formula is designed to be matte and quick-absorbing.

Some Bunzee Bands are made for Afro puffs, locs, dreads, and thick ponytails to help keep your hair off your neck now that it's no-jacket weather. They're super strong and built to last up to two years (that's a really long time for a hair tie), but they won't harm or painfully pull your hair. Plus, the adjustable bands mean that they'll stay put. It's never a bad idea to keep an extra hair band (or four) in your bag! A pack of Melissa & Doug Reusable Water-Reveal Activity Pads with pens that you can fill with water and then be used to "color" in the pads over and over again. No more worrying about messy crayons or markers while your kid needs something to do on the go that won't make a huge mess.

These 'magic' moisturizing socks can cure cracked heels — they're on sale for $7 a pair

Walking on eggshells, walking on broken glass — any kind of foot pain is so brutal that it's become a universal metaphor for discomfort. And 20 percent of adults in the United States have experienced the very specific foot torture of cracked heels. If you're among these millions of sufferers, it's time to meet your sole mates: Dr. Frederick's Original Moisturizing Heel Socks. Just in time for summer sandal prep, you can grab two pairs on sale at Amazon for $14. While you can't put a price tag on comfy feet, we'll try! Getting a pedicure or spa treatment to fix cracked heels can cost a pretty penny. But, thanks to these socks, you'll get the same results without spending a fortune. Right now, you can score this two-pack for just $14 — that means one pair will set you back only $7. How's that for a steal? Dr. Frederick's Original Moisturizing Heel Socks are lined with SootheFast Gel, a pain-relieving gel that not only moisturizes, helping to ease soreness, but also encourages the skin to regenerate. In addition to the medicinal oils contained in the socks' soft fabric, you can add your favorite foot cream and let those babies soak. Think your heels are tough? These socks are tougher — with or without added moisturizers, they go to town on rough, dry skin while you quite literally kick back, relax, watch TV, read a book or go to sleep. It's the most hands-off way possible to restore your heels to their former glory. Another plus: These are one-size-fits-most and safe for sensitive skin. They're also breathable and won't overheat your feet, according to many reviewers, especially because they don't cover your toes. When you're done, just pop them right in the washing machine and stroll out the door in pain-free bliss! If you've tried a million ways to fix your cracked heels and walk pain-free, join the club. That's what most of the product's nearly 10,000 five-star reviewers have in common: the kind of desperation that led them to Dr. Frederick's. "I have tried a number of different things, including plastic foot booties used for pedicures. These silicone heel socks do the trick," said one impressed shopper. "Wear these nightly to say goodbye to cracked heels and hello to soft feet." "These have healed my super-gnarly heels!" said another. "After about two months of using these nightly, paired with using Keresal intensive foot treatment, my once VERY thick and VERY CRACKED heels are starting to look somewhat normal. They're still not 100% up to my wishes, but I don't have any cracks, and my heels no longer look terrible. I would say within a few more weeks of regular use and gentle pumice stone use, my thick heel calluses will be 100% gone." "What kind of magic is this?" asked a stunned reviewer. "The socks, for me, fit perfectly. Hugging my heel with the silicone sitting perfectly in place. I went to sleep and woke up hopeful. I removed the socks and my eyes widened. It was like someone came in the middle of the night and replaced my dry ugly heels with that of a 20-year-old woman! Smooth. Almost no cracks!" Another shocked shopper said: "What a relief! All I can say is wow. My feet were so painfully dry since it has gotten cold. No matter how much I lotion my feet, they would still get dry and cracked, and I needed relief. I honestly didn't think I would be so blown away by the results in literally two to three days. My feet feel amazing." Shoppers didn't find many downsides to these socks, but some did say they were a bit snug. "I don't really like walking on them as the gel pad moves around and feels strange. They're also a little tight across my feet, but I have wide feet," remarked one customer. And while these are socks, they are full of moisturizers, so one reviewer cautioned users to be careful when moving around: "I want to moisturize my heels but hate wearing socks to bed. This solves the problem. ... Be careful though ... slippery walking on a tile floor." Need a little extra help taming those heels? Over 64,000 shoppers love this foot cream. "This cream really works on your feet," one five-star reviewer explained. "Makes them soft and smooth. Doesn't have any odor, is not greasy and absorbs quickly and well. Helps to get rid of calluses and dry skin on heels. Works well at night, put it on and wear socks to bed. Gives you happy feet!" If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course.
