    Promising review: "I have always had serious dark circles and bags under my eyes and this has really changed this for me. The results are incredible. The puffiness is gone. The dark circles are hardly noticeable. My sensitive skin has not broken out. I never write reviews, but this was so good that I had to write a review. This actually works." —Ben

    3. A mildly alarming if not adorable flexible flower vase that will fascinate guests when they can bend its limbs and hang it from any fixture they choose. That says if this thing *does* come to life in the middle of the night and starts singing and dancing all over your room, well. That's on you for buying whatever the heck this is.

    Promising review: "An affable, squishy, bendy, happy little vase! The consensus on my social media page is that everyone should have one of these. I finally got a chance to try it out with some daffodils, and really, it's hard not to smile when you see them." Susy Lundy 

    Get it from Amazon for $20.90 (available in three colors). 

    4. A set of vinyl coasters to give your coffee table a delightfully retro nostalgic touch *and* protect it from the perils of condensation.

    5. A ridiculously charming octopus-shaped blackhead remover you can use to gently scrub as part of your skin routine or in the shower to remove excess sebum to exfoliate pores and pull out blackheads, whiteheads, and other miscellaneous gunk from the day that you'd rather evict.

    Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok, it works great so far." —MarMarManuel

    "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. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like me." —LuckLocust

    Get it from Amazon for $8.31

    6. A set of Starface hydrocolloid pimple patches, which unlike their ~invisible~ competing patches, are meant to be loud and proud accessories for your face. Basically acne, but make it fashion. Plus you still get all the relief of these lil' patches sucking the gunk out of acne and helping them heal faster and more effectively.

    7. A dimmable sad duck nightlight because sometimes you just have to look at this emotionally deflated creature on your desk and be like, "Welp. At least I'm doing better than that little dude."

    Promising review: "I ordered this lamp because of its appearance. I didn't NEED a depressed duck lamp ... but it has totally filled a void in my life I didn't know existed. Everyone who sees it pokes it. The lamp is actually very functional. It's got a really nice set of brightness options and the glow is yellowish, which is much nicer than white in a dim/dark room. One thing that isn't mentioned in the description is that its legs are utterly floppy. It's terrific." —Literated

    Get it from Amazon for $14.39.

    8. A camera lens-shaped thermos that is both aesthetically pleasing *and* delightfully practical — this 12-ounce insulated mug not only will keep coffee hot, but will keep iced drinks and smoothies cold on the go. Why say "cheese" when you can say "caffeine?"

    Promising review: "I saw this while browsing, and at first I thought it was a real lens (until I saw the price). I clicked, and had to laugh because it incorporated my husband's two loves — coffee and photography! I got it for him as part of his Christmas gifts, and he loves it. The designer did an excellent job with this. It looks real at first glance, and the raised areas make it very easy to hold. We laughed when he opened it, and it has become one of his favorite mugs." —Susan

    Get it from Amazon for $9.87.

    9. Girl Scouts S'mores Seasoning Blend, just in case you needed an excuse to make your yogurt, overnight oats, ice cream, coffee, brownies, and cookies even *more* lawlessly delicious. 

    Promising review: "Paired with the Rice Krispy creamer Coffeemate, it's immaculate. It's so good, a nice cool s’mores taste." —Tasheba w. 

    Get it from Amazon for $4.98 (also available in a Thin Mint version!). 

    10. Michael Scott/Prison Mike reversible dishwasher magnet so you always know whether the dishes in there are clean and need to be put away, or whether they're dirty and here to SCARE YOU STRAIGHT.

    Promising review: "My whole family is a fan of The Office, so when I was searching for a magnet we could use on our dishwasher, this was the hands-down winner. Does it go with my farmhouse decor? Nope, not at all. But it does get the attention of two teenage boys. Had I gone with something a bit more my decor style, I can guarantee you it would not be as useful. I mean, we all would much rather see Prison Mike staring back at us than suit and tie Michael Scott, right? And there is only one way for that to happen...clean out the dishwasher!" —R. Funk

    Get it from Amazon for $8.99.

    11. A cloud-shaped magnetic key holder for an absurdly cute storage option for keys that will prettttyyy much guarantee you never lose them again. 

    Promising review: "So, yes, TikTok made me buy this, but so far I really like it. It's obviously very adorable and offers a charming spot to keep my keys that works with my entryway. I'm really surprised by how strong the hold is for such a small object — I carry my car fob and a few keys and so far it's holding strong. I hung it with command strips to avoid any potential damage to the wall and I will say make sure it's level as the hold is not so good on an angle (but that was from the original in-hand testing). Definitely recommend and for the price, I'm very tempted to get one for my at-work office." —D. Carter

    12. An abstract tabletop mirror to blow yourself kisses on your way out of your bedroom for another busy day of being the Most Productive, Cutest, Funniest Person Alive. ✨✨✨ Reviewers swear by this as an easy vanity mirror!

    Promising reviews: "I use it to get ready every morning!! So cute, also very easy to clean. Hasn’t cracked no matter how rough I am with it. It’s very lightweight and a great gift for yourself or anyone. Definitely worth the price $$!!!" —M. Gonzalez

    Get it from Amazon for $8.90.

    13. A glass milk carton reviewers *love* for frothing — not only is it the perfect size, but the container is shaped in a way that stops milk and cream from spilling over the sides. Because yes, there's no use crying over spilled milk, but crying over spilled FROTHED milk?? Valid.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "I love glassware, especially borosilicate glass, because it’s delicate and yet strong, it’s thinner and lighter than most glass. This is is definitely a conversation piece, because of its small milk carton shape and it holds a significant amount of cream or milk. It’s perfect for use during brunch, and during coffee or tea dates with friends. To get it cleaned, I use warm water, dish soap, and a small foam brush, than I put it on the dish rack to air dry." —APR63

    Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (available in five styles). 

    14. A "Shower Cat" for anyone who sheds enough in the shower that they could, in fact, costume an entire production of Cats. This gizmo attaches to the shower wall as a handy place to stash loose hair and toss it later so it won't wrap around the drain and cause you a headache later (also not unlike a production of Cats).

    Shower Cat is a small business established in 2021 specializing in products to prevent shower clogs. 

    Promising review: "I first saw this product on TikTok and I knew immediately that I needed it. I just moved into a new apartment and I didn’t want to be how I used to be, where I’d just let hair go down the drain and plug it eventually, or peel it off of the drain after each shower. It works great but I probably need some practice with it. I currently just floss my hair through it so it will hold them and there are a few stray hairs that don’t stick. I would recommend to anyone who is tired of putting your loose strands of hair on the shower wall." —Cari Schwartzkopf

    Get it from Amazon for $14.95

    15. A light up rain cloud essential oil diffuser that looks like it was pulled out of your dizziest daydreams. Reviewers especially love how soothing the color changes and sounds of the water flow are. (And that both are fully adjustable!)

    Check out a TikTok of the rain cloud diffuser in action.

    Promising review: "I love this thing. I have anxiety and insomnia, and I need background noise to function/sleep. This little desktop fountain is SO SOOTHING, both aesthetically and the sound of the little raindrops. If I’m in the room with it, it’s probably on. If you love the sound of rain this is for you. Because I’m paranoid and I want this to last, I run it with plain distilled water and I have not used essential oils with it even though they say it’s fine. It’s very dry here right now, and I still only have to top up the water every few days, even with it running daily. It’s a solid 12/10 from me." —Violet

    Get it from Amazon for $39.99.

    16. A skull-shaped olive oil dispenser just to remind everyone that your cooking is to ~die~ for. 

    Promising review: "These oil dispensers are very nice, come with everything you need to use them and even has a wire brush to clean out any build up in the dispensers. Also comes with a small funnel for refills. Nice heavy glass that looks really good, well made." —Angela

    Get it from Amazon for $18.98.

    17. A mini inflatable tube guy for your desk to cheer you on (or remind you to take a lil' dance break whenever you overwork yourself).

    Promising review: "OMG! I love this guy! These things large and small will ALWAYS make me laugh. My husband bought the desk version for me and I can always count on it to make me laugh. My co-workers love it too. People just stop by to turn him on for a quick pick-me-up. I would recommend getting the AC plug since batteries can run down fast. I think we should create a community of fellow air-dancer-havers and post clips of our little guys dancing to our favorite songs. Anyone in?" —Mark

    Get it from Amazon for $8.58.

    18. A cult-favorite jar of white chocolate pretzel nut butter that answers a risky but important question: What would happen if we found a way to somehow make peanut butter even more delicious?

    Nuts N More is a small business specializing in flavored nut spreads and powders. 

    Promising review: "White chocolate pretzel is exactly what I expected...a delicious sweet and salty treat. It tastes soooo good and there's plenty of chocolate and pretzels in each bite. It's so good that I eat it off the spoon. I initially thought it was pricey but after comparing it to similar but products it's actually a little bit cheaper or equally priced." —Barbara Balter

    Get it from Amazon for $13.02 (and get a WHOLE BUNCH OF OTHER FLAVORS like birthday cake, cookie dough, and peanut colada — there are 10 to choose from!). 

    19. A small duck-themed salad bowl so there's no such thing as a Sad Lunch Desk Salad ever again — now at least you have *one* coworker who will always quack you up mid-meal.

    Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (also available in a small bowl).

    20. A tube of chocolate-flavored natural toothpaste, which amassed a cult-following on TikTok (and not just for the unusual flavor). This fluoride-free, foam-free formula effectively whitens teeth and reduces plaque without synthetic substances, and a lot of reviewers swear by it because it has a "softer" taste than traditional minty toothpastes and contains all-natural ingredients.

    Promising review: "Loved this product. Saw someone using it on TikTok and figured I'd try it out. Product really makes a big difference — I have a noticeable whiter smile." —Kandi Yams

    "Even better than expected. Subtle flavor similar to chocolate taffy. Not super sweet of course, and does not foam a lot. Makes teeth brushing much easier and less overwhelming experience — if you have sensory sensitivities this is a good brand. Leaves me feeling fresh and clean, and my teeth looking white just like normal toothpaste." —Katt

    Get a two-pack from Amazon for $11.99 (available in six other flavors). 

    21. A pack of four cottagecore silicone twig-shaped straws that say, "Environmentally friendly, but make it DEEPLY CONFUSING for all the unsuspecting bystanders at Taco Bell."

    Promising review: "Whether this is a gag gift or not... this actually goes great with my tumbler. I had Snow White's Poison Apple made into a tumbler and I just wanted a brown straw when I happened upon these. Ten times better than what I was looking for." —Review4u

    22. Nessie bookmark so you'll always have a reading companion when you're swimming in the depths of a new favorite book (or need an emotional support creature when you're reading a harrowing one!!). 

    Promising review: "Absolutely love my Nessie bookmark. Product looks exactly like the images on the website. Very durable and small boost of serotonin every time I pick my book back up to read. Have already gifted to a few people." —Brisag64

    Promising review: "I purchased this for my kitchen and I'm in love! It's super soft and the rubber backing keeps it in place. I've run the vacuum over it and the material didn't pull or anything so it's very good quality and super easy to clean." —Sarah B.

    Get it from Amazon for $21.99.

    24. A set of snail tea bag holders to keep your floral tea from pulling a disappearing act *and* giving you a built-in breakfast buddy to talk to about that weird dream you had last night.

    Promising review: "Love these fun little quirky tea slugs. They work on all shapes and sizes of mugs and have brought a smile to all who either used them or were the lucky recipients of their own batch of tea slugs from me. They clean up well with just a quick rinse under the sink and are even fun to use on wine or cocktail glasses to help guests track their drink." —NC

    26. A pair of microfiber mop slippers to take the frustration out of cleaning up small spills and messes on days when you've already had it up to HERE and a half. These are handy, effective, and are so fun to bust out that you'll be laugh-crying over spilled milk.

    Promising review: "So why do I like mopping slippers? I have a 2-year-old and the slippers are great for mopping up little splashes. Drops of water from doing dishes and the extra padding is nice. No paper towels wasted and it's immediate. Plus these are cute. You have to have a sense of whimsy for this functional novelty item." —G. Kim

    Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in four sizes and 17 styles).

    27. A criminally cute teddy bear water bottle that takes "emotional support water bottle" to a WHOLE other level. Reviewers especially love that it comes with a handy shoulder strap, and that the leakproof lid pops off to let you drink from a straw!

    Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in two styles). 

    28. A three-tiered ring floor lamp for anyone who wants a lighting option that isn't going to bore them to tears. This not only has unique, sophisticated flair, but comes with adjustable brightness so you can curate the room's mood.

    Brightech is a California-based small business that specializes in home lighting. 

    Promising review: "The light is nice! It’s a unique looking light. I love how it has three different settings so you can adjust the brightness. It fits perfectly with my reading chaise and goes well with the rest of my living room decor. The only con I have is I wish the cord was clear instead of black, it sticks out. Other than that, I love the light. I’d definitely recommend it to others." —Carmelita Joy

    Get it from Amazon for $75.99+ (available in four colors).

    29. A set of succulent fridge magnets because sometimes the plant parent urge can't be satisfied by living plants alone, and you have to go the extra mile to cozy up your space and fill the succulent-shaped hole in your heart.

    Promising review: "I usually store my glasses in their case. I don't know why that's such a hassle, but I like to be able to just reach for them. But they are also unsafe when they are just sitting on my desk. This little koala solves my problem! He holds my glasses securely and does it in the cutest way possible. Now I can sit at my desk, grab my glasses, and get to work with a smile on my face. And at the end of the day, I just leave them with my koala for safe keeping. Seriously, just get one. I haven't lost my glasses once since I got this." —Bianca

    33. A set of giant fruit-shaped sponges for anyone whose kitchen could use a pop of color 🍓🥭🍊🌈 — reviewers love these because they're super soft and gentle on hands, and their extra large size makes them super absorbent and great for cleaning larger areas outside of the kitchen, too!

    Promising review: "I wanted nice sponges that could be used in a guest suite. Most people stay a week at the most, so I was not as concerned about durability as visual appeal. These sponges fit the bill perfectly. They are relatively sturdy, enough so that I typically use the sponge, after my guest leaves, to clean up the suite, and it holds up to that and then some. They are unique and cute, so they kick up the suite experience a notch. They are individually wrapped, so my guest knows that they are not getting a sponge someone else has used. And they don't have a rough scrubbing side, so I don't worry that my pans/pots will get scratched up." —Mad Hen
