27 Underrated Things To Try Before They Go Viral

A useful waterproof baby carrier if you'd appreciate having your hands free when you take your little one in the pool. It's made of a fast-drying neoprene material (think surf suits) and has soft padded straps. An office chair blanket that'll create a cocoon of warmth (and it's strapped to the chair so it won't fall off), so you can focus on your work instead of cursing the office manager every 10 minutes because they're absolutely blasting the AC. A smudge-correcting clear nail polish so it's NBD when your painstakingly painted mani gets crinkled because you *thought* your nails were fully dried but learned they were most definitely still slightly wet after you buttoned up your pants. A spinning water bottle organizer because your extensive collection of jumbo water bottles is taking up an entire shelf in your kitchen cabinet. This lazy Susan–style water bottle holder can accommodate up to six 40-oz. Stanleys, Starbucks tumblers, and more. A hair-identifier spray to make your monthly dermaplaning session as pain-free as possible. Now, you can be sure you're shaving all the peach fuzz to make makeup application smoother and reveal that summery glow. And reviewers say the spray helps the razor glide more smoothly. A pack of pee pads for monitoring your pup's health — it's not like they can use their words to tell you when something is wrong. These absorbent pads have a color-changing layer that can alert you when you to potential issues, like a UTI or dehydration. A pack of soda can lids if you prefer your pop with no bugs in it. (Who doesn't?) They're designed to fit standard-sized cans and have a sealing ring that should prevent leaks if the can gets knocked happens often if you've got kids. The straw is retractable, so it's not exposed to icky germs. And you can pop the whole thing in the dishwasher for cleaning! A silicone ring protector that'll give you peace of mind when you're at the gym, allowing you to wear your rings while exercising so you don't have to stick them in an unsupervised gym locker while also protecting your band from scratches. A pack of disposable paper bibs so you're always prepared when you're out of the house this summer. With three layers of protection and an adhesive tab so you can keep the bib attached to their clothes *plus* a built-in crumb catcher, these bibs will make impromptu park lunches, playdates, meals out, and arts and crafts time much less messy. A Hershey's s'mores caddy because no summer day is complete without an ooey-gooey campfire s'more. This tackle box has room for all the essentials: graham crackers, marshmallows, chocolate, and roasting sticks. A limited-edition Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa 71 shimmering body cream to wrap your skin in a subtle golden glow — like if the Cullens could tan — while hydrating and softening, and evening your skin tone. And the caramelized vanilla and toasted macadamia nut scent will have you smelling like a literal snack. A pack of light-blocking strips for eliminating the pesky light leakage that happens around the edges of the blinds, even blackout blinds. They attach via magnets, so installation and removal is easy peasy lemon squeezy. Just as easy as falling asleep during a bright summer day or sleeping in even when the summer sun rises at 5:30 a.m. A set of espresso martini instant cocktail tea bags if your bank account cries every time you order an $18 espresso martini. Enjoy your fave bevvy at home for way cheaper and without having to put on real clothes and shout across the table at your friends because the restaurant has the volume turned way up. A ~frightfully fun~ skeleton hand serving set that'll ~give you a hand~ at your next dinner party. Is it too early to be thinking about spooky season? Methinks not! A moisturizing doggie sunscreen with SPF 30 so your four-legged friend, who ofc loves sun-bathing when it's 95 degrees, has some defense against the sun's rays. A wig dryer stand because waiting hours (or even days) for your freshly washed wig to dry is not the move. Instead of hanging your wet wig on the bathroom door handle, place it over the mannequin head, insert the dryer, and let the ventilation holes dry the hair faster than you thought possible. A weekly keyboard planner to help you organize your tasks and visualize the work week. It's undated, so you can use it only when you need it instead of buying a dated planner and then feeling like you've wasted money because you only filled half the book. An innovative hardshell suitcase — OK, so you know when you've got your suitcase precariously balanced on an itty-bitty luggage rack and with the suitcase fully open, it takes up like 50% of the free space in your shoebox-sized hotel room? This suitcase's trunk-style opening changes the game! It offers deeper storage space (so go ahead and *stuff* those packing cubes) and easy access to stuff in your carry-on — no more having to open the entire clamshell and reveal to your gate every single thing you packed because you need to grab a hairbrush. An airtight Deli ProKeeper if the sensory experience of pulling a piece of slimy ham from a damp deli meat package is *shudders* enough to make you no longer hungry for lunch. This container is designed to extend the life of your deli meats and cheeses and has a grooved bottom, meaning your turkey isn't sitting in its juices. A pack of Lego highlighters that'll make the slog of note-taking or studying feel a little more fun. They're also a great fidget toy! A Chasin' Rabbits eye cream roller so you can moisturize and potentially de-puff your under-eye area with a wave of your magic wand. The pen dispenses a brightening under-eye cream, which you can then rub in with the steel rollerballs. It'll be like a nice lil' eye massage too! A pack of carborundum sponges because these are the heavy hitters you'll want for stains and gunk that no other sponge is strong enough to handle. A midi dress with the most darling ruffled tiers to make you look like a literal work of art. A K-Beauty hair perfume oil for whatever the hair equivalent of "glass skin" is. "Glass hair"? It'll add a glossy sheen while calming frizz and flyaways *and* it leaves behind a subtle scent for hours — 14 hours, according to one reviewer.. And someone else said it added more softness and shine than Olaplex, so, like, do with that info what you will. A pretty ~dope~ Doap bar if plain old soap and water isn't strong enough to unstick the sticky dough that's stuck to your hands. Instead of dirtying (and ruining) a perfectly good sponge, clean your hands with a Doap bar. The textured knobs will remove stubborn dough like magic! A delightfully stress-free This Annoying Life coloring book that'll help you find humor in the frustrations and pains of everyday life — like stepping on Lego bricks with bare feet. At least you can choose the color of the bricks! A waterless and instant makeup brush cleaner so you can skip the hours-long process of washing and drying your makeup brushes. This spray penetrates the brush hairs and melts oils and pigments fast while drying pretty much instantly. Wow!

Odette Chef Rethinks Korean Cuisine With a New Concept in Hong Kong

Tucked away on the fifth floor of a building on Lyndhurst Terrace, newly opened Sol offers a refreshing take on Korean cuisine, one that's deeply rooted in tradition but elegantly dressed in French technique. That's due in large part to the creative energy of head chef Gwanju Kim, formerly of Singapore's three-Michelin-starred Odette and Seoul's one-starred L'Amant Secret. Although chef Kim's journey began in French kitchens, his heart was always drawn to the richness of Korean produce. 'We used a lot of Japanese ingredients and techniques at Odette,' he says. 'And I used to envy that because Korea has so many incredible ingredients too.' After returning to Seoul, he began rethinking Korean cuisine, eventually landing in Hong Kong to bring his vision to life. His goal is to spotlight the ingredients Koreans often take for granted — like maesaengi and siraegi — and introduce them to a global audience. At the start of our meal, chef Kim presented a basket of the vegetables that would feature in our dishes, explaining their sourcing and traditional Korean culinary roles. Each course included a thorough overview from our server and a lovely table card offering an insightful backstory to the core ingredient at play. For this review, we, a Korean native and a recent Hong Kong transplant, visited Sol about a week after it opened. We ordered the five-course lunch set , and a recommended add-on to start. Our total bill for two came to HK$1,263 , including sparkling water and service. The vibe: Sol's interior is warm and inviting, with earthy brown tiles, soft circular lighting and the solstice motif adorning the walls. Two-person booths provide the perfect setting for a conversation while a few larger tables can accommodate groups. A separate space near the open kitchen hosts monthly cooking classes and group bookings, adding a community feel to the refined dining experience. Can you conduct a meeting here? Absolutely. But a meal this good might be better shared with your loved ones. Who's next to you: When we visited for a late weekday lunch, it was still quiet. But the few tables around us seemed to have couples and friends. Stella: My favorites were the creamy steamed egg topped with mushrooms and pine nuts, and a dish recommended by our server: a Jeju abalone paired with two types of Korean seaweed with a classic beurre blanc sauce. A nostalgic moment came with the mubap, a seasoned radish rice dish, served alongside grilled pork jowl, a humble one-pot dinner that instantly sent me back to my childhood in Seoul. It's a clever nod to the chef's belief that the most common ingredients often hold the deepest meaning. I'd like to return for dinner, especially with dessert chef Kylie Yang, formerly of Mingles and Hansik Goo, bringing her own modern Korean flair to the final course, which includes two grain-inspired desserts: one made with white rice and the other with barley. Ray: At Sol, none of the usual Korean fare I'm accustomed to — your bibimbap, Korean barbecue or ginseng chicken soup — are on the menu. So this experience helped widen my palate and appreciation for other Korean staples. Standouts in my mind were the delicately layered saewoo-jang , the aforementioned main course of mubap with pork jowl and the just-sweet-enough dessert featuring tastes of barley, chocolate and tonka beans. I'd absolutely return for dinner, or better yet, a cooking class. Need to know: Sol is on the fifth floor of 8 Lyndhurst Terrace. There are no signs outside, so check the floor directory inside the building entrance. The restaurant serves lunch from noon to 3 p.m. and dinner from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. Only set menus are available for both lunch and dinner. Reservations are recommended, which can be made via Google Maps or directly on the restaurant's website. —Stella Ko and Raymond Schillinger This review was originally published in Hong Kong Edition, a weekly newsletter.

52 Amazing Finds That'll Become Your Favorites

A portable handheld fan that's also a power bank *and* flashlight. Whip can out this while standing in a sticky hot space and you'll start getting envious dirty looks! (Trust me, it happens to me quite often. I'm never without this!) Plus, a Dreo oscillating tower fan that'll fit in all kinds of compact spaces where it can work its magic with six speeds — minus the distracting racket of other tower fans. Nivea skin-firming gel cream to help firm up loose skin and skin texture (think post–weight loss and post-partum) with Q10, an ingredient you'll likely start hearing a LOT more about soon. Reviewers say it's great for the face and stomach, but is also quite transformative for necks and thighs. McCormick's Potato Topping Seasoning in case you need a cheap thrill for your we-have-food-at-home roasted potatoes, so you won't be tempted to order Domino's once again this week. It's a delish blend of salt, garlic, asiago cheese, sugar, butter, and onion. What a way to doctor up on responsible adult dinner! Gold Bond's firming neck and chest cream will help *gently* hydrate, exfoliate, and tighten the skin that's more sensitive than the rest of your body but less sensitive than the skin on your face. This makes for a lovely, quite effective in-between formula packed with aloe, salicylic acid, and jojoba oil in a formula that reviewers say works just as well as much pricier creams. A 2-in-1 nausea relief inhaler you can even slip into your (too small) jeans front pocket to have on hand when you're feeling a little rough. Reviewers say it helps with random nausea, motion sickness, morning sickness, and just feeling quite a bit icky. Simply inhale it or rub it on the tip of your nose to enjoy the "I'm feeling better" benefits. THE Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa 39 Hair & Body Perfume Mist that'll be worth snagging now that it's back for a spell (which is great news for the reviewers who've been hoarding previously bought bottles). The mouthwatering coconut cream and tropical orchid scent might just inspire you to queue up a YouTube playlist of Carmen Miranda bops, the legendary Brazilian performer who inspired the scent! A cheap but incredibly effective instant foot-peeling spray in case your at-home pedis aren't quite hitting or you can't make it to the salon before you wanna wear sandals. It'll painlessly remove dead skin and help moisturize cracked heels so you won't have to put off slipping your old dogs into your trusty Birks for the season. A *rocking* camping chair in a fun color combo so you'll 1) have a comfy place to sit for a spell and 2) help you differentiate your seat in a sea of boring neutral camping chairs. A tinted lip balm you'd SWEAR is Clinique's $25 "Almost Lipstick" Black Honey due to 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. Bioclean, a hard water stain remover if you're tired at looking at all the streaks and soap scum on your shower doors, fixtures, grout, and basically everywhere else in your bathroom. One reviewer swears that you should "Buy a lifetime supply immediately." Kojic Acid Dark Spot Remover Soap can lighten darkened skin areas (without feeling like you've lost several layers of skin) thanks to a formula of hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, shea butter, and Castile olive oil. Time to give this a go for that dark spot on your cheek that never quite seems to get completely masked by your makeup. (It's also great for areas that see less daylight, like armpits, inner thighs, and along your bikini line.) Hanes Ultimate ankle socks can pass the comfort test for fans of Aritzia's TNA line. Yes, we're at that age where socks can be luxurious. Mise En Scene Perfect Serum, a K-beauty product that's probably come across your radar for its stunning before and after results *and* lower price tag than a comparable $46 Gisou hair oil. With this, you can lock down a cheap(er) but transformative hair oil that will soften the blow of putting off having your split ends snipped off for a few more months. An airplane seat back organizer because those seat back pockets are NEVER as big as you need them to be. With this you can actually store your snacks, water bottle, and so much more without having to get up and get stuff out of the overhead throughout your flight. A colorful tree swing that everyone will enjoy because it has a weight capacity of 900 pounds. You're going to be da belle of da ball once you hang this up in your backyard! (Oh, and you can put it inside come cold weather.) Lottabody's Coconut Oil Foaming Curl Mousse to help your curls, waves, or straight locks get a little more definition and a lot less frizz. Get ready for a queue of folks to ask you, "Why don't you wear your hair curly more often?!" An inflatable couch you can use the next time you need some more outdoor seating stat but want to LOUNGE. Reviewers tote it to the beach, park, music festivals, and even camping. So you'll get LOTS of mileage out of this aside from your backyard! An instant stain and mildew remover to revamp all sorts of outdoor surfaces like siding, patio furniture, and boats BUT it'll also come in handy inside on surfaces like shower surrounds that seem like they're too far gone. Catrice "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener for a quick, easy fix that'll conceal and brighten your under-eye dark circles because you don't wanna have to do a full face every single day. This "invisible" coverage oft gets compared to the $33 Becca version. A set of reusable microfiber mop pads (that'll work with the Swiffer you already own) because WOW those disposable ones seem to disappear like magic in your home. No more running out in your time of need. A mini sprinkler pad to help the fam cool off and get some water time without having to dump out a kiddie pool's worth of water once the fun has wrapped. Venus Visage Teeth Whitening Pens you can easily apply and let sit a minute or two to dry. Buh-bye annoying strips and coffee stains. A "Soft" perfume rollerball that's definitely made an appearance or five in your FYP scroll. It's only $5 and smells totally delightful (it gets compared to sweet treats like waffle cones). BUT! That's not the only reason to love it. It reminds reviewers of the $65 bottle of Pink Sugar 👀 and layers like a dream. Essence's Drop of Sunshine Bronzing Drops that'll help you fake that you spent the weekend taking in the sunshine instead of sick and holed up on your couch catching up on all the horror movies you've been meaning to watch. And at $33 cheaper than the Drunk Elephant version, you might just go ahead and invest in a second or third bottle now. Reviewers say it's super hydrating and buildable! Essence's Lash Princess mascara makes for a super dramatic before and after with a few mere swipes. Plus, there's the "Eh, might as well add to cart" price that can't be beat! A set of ~flexible~ limited-edition watercolor design Band-Aids will help your bumps and scrapes look a little more painterly. Forget trying to color-match your bandages. Turn yourself into a walking art gallery! An outdoor fan just begging to be mounted in the corner of your porch to keep a breeze going because even if your porch has ceiling fans, sometimes that isn't enough in mid-July. Also, circulating air will decrease the number of bugs that bother you. A hook and ring game can even work in even tiny outdoor spaces. Every backyard needs some kind of game element! You'll def be able to squeeze in this one. Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel for some stunning results that reviewers swear compare to $$$ eye creams at minimizing puffiness and swelling thanks to a powerhouse duo of caffeine and hyaluronic acid. A Chuckit! ball launcher that'll help kids (and adults!) throw your dog's ball like a pro. And also tire them both out a bit more without tiring *yourself* out. Talk about an efficient session of catch! A plant-based stainless steel cleaner + a microfiber cleaning cloth to finally help you get rid of all the little paw and fingerprints that seem to magically appear out of thin air on your kitchen appliances. A makeup brush cleanser because you and I both know you're not washing your beauty tools as frequently as you should. (Same.) A set of DEET-free handy mosquito-repelling bracelets in case the thought of putting something else on your skin besides SPF (like smelly bug repellent) sounds like a total nightmare. A sturdy Pikk-It tool with sharp metal teeth that'll un-ensnare tangled hair from your vacuum cleaners, hairbrushes, and even your beloved round brush dryer. Raise your hand if you've ever broken a seam ripper cleaning a vacuum cleaner. (Meee.) An Elizavecca hair treatment can give you "rich girl hair" thanks to its collagen and ceramide 3 formula. And it'll take just a few minutes of your time, like as little as five minutes post-shampoo. Because time is money, money is power, and power is pizza. (In case you were curious, lots of reviewers say they prefer it over $$$ Olaplex.) A roll of wood grain tape to serve as a "frame" on your bathroom or wall mirror to make your space feel a bit more intentionally designed — even if you inherited a bunch of someone else's design choices. A set of satin pillowcases will look more luxe on your bed than the pillowcases that came with your sheet set. AND (I can vouch) that they'll leave your hair and skin more moisturized than cotton ones. Here's to keeping that blowout looking smoother for longer. A pair of wireless over-the-ear headphones you'd mistake for AirPods Max if you weren't paying close attention thanks to the similar shape and shade options. These beauts are at a small fraction of the price (I swear, that math is easy) with good noise-blocking, 10 hours of play per charge, a built-in mic for calls, and cushy padding so you can put those extra HUNDREDS you're not spending on AirPods Max for a flight to your college roommate's wedding. A clip-on light if you're in love with your patio umbrella and don't wanna shell out for a whole new one that's lit. E.l.f. Soft Glam Foundation for some buildable full coverage without *looking* like you put on a layer or two. (I should know, it's become my go-to!) Its satiny finish leaves you looking all dewy and has garnered some compliments from friends who see me often enough to tell the difference! After all, finding your holy-grail foundation is a JOURNEY. Might as well try the affordable, effective ones first! A lidded charcuterie board to help you prep the perfect spread ahead of time and keep it in the fridge and/or covered before its great reveal. It'll be especially handy when prepping to serve your charcuterie somewhere else because this is built to travel with wells for different elements and a locking lid. A ceiling fan carbon filter can make your breezy BFF work even harder for you. This filter attracts and grabs dust, pollen, smoke, dander, and other allergens as the fan spins. And because it goes on *top* of the blades, only you'll know it's there. A simple mountable cat-grooming brush will help your kitty get some rubs when your hands are all tied up with other tasks. Cordless no-drill Roman shades that'll be a breeze to install. (Reviewers say it took less than 10 minutes!) Renters and homeowners alike love them because you don't have to drill into the wall for installation. A fast-acting refillable plug-in fly trap can cover up to 400 square feet of space to help lure in with a guiding light and ensnare those annoying little bugs that keep flying around you while you're then when you're just trying to enjoy your home-cooked meal. It works on fruit flies, moths, gnats, and regular flies. A set of legging organizing hangers where you can tell the differences between all your black leggings, like the number of pockets or waist height. These seem quite simple but I just pulled all my leggings out of a drawer to use these in my closets, and it's a MUCH better use of space! Some safe-locking magnetic duvet clips in case your decision to invest in a duvet has turned out to be the BANE of your existence but you're not a quitter. You can simply secure this pin to a duvet (that can weigh up to 10 pound) to keep everything in place. Then when it's wash time, you just remove with the included magnetic key. A set of Dash ice cream-making mugs to put less of a dent in your budget than the Ninja Creami in the pursuit of delish, customized soft-serve. You simply freeze your base, add toppings, press the button on the mug, and enjoy after letting the mug work for 20 minutes. A portable 100-inch movie screen that'll also store pretty easily after you've laid the seeds for some nightmares because of your Slasher Summer movie series. A pop-up screened-in room if you love the outdoors way more than the outdoors likes YOU. You can keep this in your car or by your deck door to pop up and sit in for a spell as a barrier against blood-sucking mosquitos and other bugs. Also, it'll make playing with pets or little kids a bit more manageable within this confined-but-not-too-confined space. 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. (Just because you TOOK a red eye doesn't mean that you have to put up with literal red eyes.)

Beloved Mexican Beer Sol Has Finally Arrived in Egypt

Sol, the crisp century-old Mexico City lager, is debuting in Egypt. The name, which translates to "the sun," is a nod to this light, easygoing spirit. Jul 21, 2025 Egypt's beer shelves are getting a new addition this summer as Mexican lager SOL officially enters the market. First brewed near Mexico City in 1899, the golden lager is now available in Egypt for the first time, offering a crisp profile and easy-drinking appeal that stands out from the usual lineup. The beer's name—Spanish for 'the sun'—is tied to its origins in a brewery where sunlight once streamed through the roof. With a lower alcohol by volume and a light taste profile, SOL is positioned for casual, laid-back settings. With over a century of brewing history and a name that evokes warmth and brightness, SOL brings a refreshing hint of Mexico to Egyptian fridges.

She described the most logical order to wipe down the surfaces in your home. "When cleaning a room, always begin at the highest points: Cobwebs, tops of cabinets and light fixtures – then work your way down walls, furniture, and finally, the floor," she said. According to the pro, the same rule applies to your house as a whole. "If you have stairs, start cleaning from the top floor and work your way down," Lynsey advised.
