You're about to discover the eighth wonder of the world: a WD-40 pen.

Have you ever looked at something and just thought to yourself, "Welp, I need that." This post is chock full of precisely those kinds of things (sorry, not sorry). From a splurge-worthy Oura Ring 4 to a humidifier tank–cleaning fish and Rifle Paper Co. percale sheets to Nivea's skin firming gel cream, I dare you *not* to add more than one thing to your cart today.

Promising review: "I love this oil so much! The smell is divine and it leaves your skin feeling nourished, hydrated and moisturized without feeling greasy or oily. It dries up very quickly and nicely. My skin feels smooth and smells amazing all day." —Yaneisa

Get it from Amazon for $11.99 and check out this Palmer's Cocoa Butter lotion while you're at it!

Promising review: "This is a must! Feels like a cloud and way better than a hand towel to dry your face, the perfect self-care product." —Jennifer

Get a pack of 60 from Amazon for $9.95. 

For some added clarity, this product should be carefully applied under your nose and around your nostrils (not inside or up your nose!). It sadly won't get rid of *all* your nasal woes, but it will help provide relief from irritation and chapping (a gift in itself).

Promising review: "My girlfriend had recommended this product to me, and I only purchased a very small tube, not knowing if I would be satisfied or not. It really IS a good product. In the winter, my nose gets dry from the heat and humidity, and I need something to moisturize it. This product really IS excellent. I purchased a small tube, not knowing if I would like it or not, and I do. It's not costly, helps you, and is well worth the price." —SB

Promising review: "So good!! These were part of a coffee-themed gift package and the recipient loved them! He said they tasted great and would love more." —Anoni Miss

Promising review: "I've been using this for five days, and I can't believe how much it's helped with the saggy skin under my chin. I'm 37, and I've been using various products, but nothing was making a difference, and my skin continued to get loose in that area. I came across this, looked at the reviews, and decided to try it, though I honestly wasn't sure it would work for me, considering other things I've tried that haven't helped. I can't even express how much better I feel now. I have no idea how this cream works and actually tightens up the skin, but I'm so grateful. I'm no longer self-conscious about it, and I actually like looking in the mirror now and not seeing the extra skin hanging from the bottom of my chin." —📚#WHYCHOOSE

Get it from Amazon for $11.97 (also available in a two-pack).

The brand recommends applying twice a day for best results. Read more about how Q10 can benefit the skin from the National Library of Medicine.

Promising review: "I’ve been using this for a few years and love it! I had loose skin after losing weight, and this gel has been a game-changer, with noticeable improvement in my skin’s texture and firmness in just a few weeks. I use this gel on my thighs, stomach, and underarms. I pair it with Nivea’s body lotion for the rest of my body. A little bit goes a long way, so the bottle lasts a while. I switched over to another gel for a month a bit ago, and I noticed my skin returning to uneven firmness and texture. Once I went back to using this product, I noticed improvements within a few weeks again. So, this isn’t a cure, but with continuous use, results are maintained to keep my skin firm, moisturized, and even textured." —Morgan

 Carter Printing Co. is a small business that sells adorable 3D printed creatures and playsets.

Promising review: "These rainbow critters are so cute and the quality is amazing. Love them all. Customer service is also amazing." —Theresa

Get a pack of five from Carter Printing Co. on Etsy for $11.06+ (also available in a pack of 10).

Promising review: "Do not hesitate to try this product if you have a hard skin problem on your feet. It takes a few days to see a difference, but now I can see a change. Just like that, the skin on my pinky toe is not rock solid anymore. Bye bye, pain — and I am not joking." —Majda

Promising review: "Just as good or maybe even better than my Laneige and Summer Friday lippies! Doesn't have an overpowering vanilla scent — smells like a cupcake with marshmallow frosting! The applicator is a 10/10 and the product goes on like butter." —Lindsay A.

The color-adaptive formula is designed so one of four shades will work on any skin tone. I've personally tested this out, and it has become an essential part of my daily routine. As a mom of two, I gotta just say I am TIRED. So tired that I'm not sure what my face even looks like without bags under my eyes — that is, unless I've got the Catrice "Instant Awake" on. A little really goes a long way and has great coverage. I wore it throughout my sister's wedding weekend in Aruba, and despite the heat, it stayed perfectly in place. An incredible product for an even more incredible price...10/10 from me. 

Promising review: "Took years off my eyes! This product is so reasonably priced. I came across a TikTok promoting this and decided to take a chance since the price was super reasonable. My eyes looked brighter in a good way, and the concealer worked so well that I felt I looked younger. I got compliments from friends asking what I did differently with my makeup. I recommend it." —Placeholder

Get it from Amazon for $6 (available in four shades). 

Promising review: "They are sooo delicious. I love the texture and the flavors are so delicious. 🤤 Definitely worth the purchase and these r so fun for kids!!! I got these to decorate my son’s birthday cake and they turned out great!" —Okiemar

Promising review: "Absolutely love the smell of this Epsom salt. I got the other seasonal scents, but this one is the bomb! My muscles relax when I soak in this Epsom salt, and it doesn't make my skin itch either. After trying the first bag and loving it, I bought three more before they were no longer selling." —JulieK

Get it from Amazon for $5.87 (psst — you can also try the popular "cozy vanilla season" and "cozy fireside" versions before they sell out for the season!!) 

The set comes with skinned all-beef hot dogs, sauerkraut, onions in sauce, spicy mustard, locally-baked buns, and Gray’s signature frothy Papaya Drink.

Promising review: "It is just a special treat that brings back fond memories of NYC and gives us flavors that we can't normally get our hands on." —Barbara L

Note that the AAD recommends using at least SPF 30 and reapplying as needed for skin protection. You can read about sunscreen myths and facts from dermatologists for more information! 

Check out a TikTok of the collagen sunscreen in action. 

Promising review: "I am a skincare snob. I spend way too much money on products. But over the last couple of years, I’ve been trying to find a new moisturizer with SPF that doesn’t bankrupt me. I need something that can help my dry skin, protect from the sun, and not irritate my sensitive skin. I was skeptical about this product, never having heard of the brand, but I gave it a try. I am SO thrilled with the results. This moisturizer is BETTER than the $55 alternative I have been using. It moisturizes like a dream. It doesn’t pill. And my sensitive skin loves it. I am THRILLED with my purchase and will definitely be back for more!" —R. Berry

Mouthwatchers is a small business established by Ronald Plotka, DDS, that specializes in antimicrobial toothbrushes designed to get deeper cleans even patients with "great" dental hygiene might miss with traditional brush and floss routines. I personally use this toothbrush and have been telling everyone in my life to get it — it's a game changer. I've always been prone to plaque build up and it's been very hard to get my teeth feeling fresh-out-of-the-dentist clean, but this toothbrush has done the trick! The first time I used it my mouth actually hurt a little like when you get a full cleaning done. It was kind of incredible. The bristles are super soft and not irritating but somehow, magically, deep clean my teeth better than any toothbrush I've had before.

Promising review: "It’s so much easier to get around all sides of the very back teeth than with the bulky electric. I love the way it makes my teeth feel afterward. It really does feel like you’ve just left your dentist." —Vicki Perkins

Promising review: "I kept seeing this product on social media and finally decided to give it a try. I use this twice daily, and it’s been a couple of weeks, and I definitely noticed my pores have shrunk. I even apply it to my neck and chest area. Product is soothing, gentle on my skin (have extremely sensitive skin), no strong smell, cottons are soft, and did not cause any breakouts! It’s great for the value, and I’ll definitely be repurchasing these." —Ee El

Get a pack of 70 from Amazon for $18.90 (available in five other styles). 

Mondo Bellissimo is a small business that sells stunning stained glass creations.

Promising review: "I LOVE THIS! I customized the colors and this was made exactly as I wanted. The craftsmanship is beautiful and the piece is solid. I am so pleased that I will order another one. Excellent all the way around!" —Jaimee Nash

Get it from Mondo Bellissimo on Etsy for $36.37+ (also available in custom color options).

Check out a TikTok of the foot masks in action. 

BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord loves these: "I'm a long-ish distance runner, and these were certainly an interesting experience for my feet! You slide them on and, after a few minutes, feel a tingling, mildly burning (in a good way) sensation. It doesn't quite numb your feet, but it relaxes them. I kept them on for 30 minutes and then toweled my feet off, and the tingling sensation slowly faded over the next 30 minutes. After that, my feet felt very refreshed and relaxed at a time of day when they're usually aching from all the miles I put in. The whole thing was a mess-free, easy process, and I will definitely keep them on hand for longer run days!"

Promising review: "Very soothing. My husband and l used these on our European vacation, and they definitely felt good on our feet!" —KS2018

Get a set of three pairs from Amazon for $11.97.  

I have this sheet set in a different pattern (which has sadly sold out), and my husband and I are obsessed with it. As a shopping editor, I've tested out quite a few sheets in my day — currently, this one from Rifle Paper Co's collab with The Company Store is my favorite. The material feels so refreshing every time I climb under the covers (not just after changing them!), and I love the pop of color the pattern adds to our bedroom. Don't waste another minute debating. Just order 'em.

Promising review: "These sheets are beautiful and they feel good, too. They get softer wth washing and drying." —The Company Store customer

Get them from The Company Store for $129+ (available in twin–King sizing) and check out the entire hydrangea collection!

Reviewers with everything from thin, fine hair–4c curls have reported positive results from this moisturizing formula, which is particularly recommended for folks whose hair is damaged from using hot tools, bleach, and the like.

Promising review: "Like many others, I tried this as a replacement for Olaplex. Honestly, Olaplex never had a great effect on my hair and certainly wasn’t worth the price. This did an unreal job on my hair!! I was skeptical (tried a little bit first because I was petrified it would burn off my hair and I would end up bald!) but, lo and behold, it was magic! My hair is so strong, silky, and healthy-looking after just one use. Plus, you can’t beat the price! Have already ordered another box. I should also add I have curly/wavy hair that’s been colored to a light brown. Buy it!!" —BB

Promising review: "These things are AMAZING! I went from having to Clorox my ultrasonic humidifier tank every few days to every month, if that. I cannot tell you how wonderful it is to not have to worry about it! I feel like they work quite a bit longer than advertised, but that may depend on water temp, if the water is distilled (this is what we use, as our water is REALLY hard otherwise) vs filtered vs not, etc. Will definitely buy again!" —CindyR

Good Molecules is a small business that specializes in affordable skincare products. 

Promising reviews: "I love this product and have noticed a huge difference when using it consistently. I am on the younger side and don’t have the worst under-eye bags, but on those occasional mornings when my eyes are puffy with somewhat visible dark circles, this product definitely does the trick! Honestly, I love all the Good Molecules products." —Hayden Smith 

"This right here is the real deal! You can see immediate results! It firms and moisturizes my eyelids! A must-have!" —Nancy A. Borkowski

Promising review: "I used this product years ago and had the most amazing skin, but I assumed it was mostly genetics. Now that my skin is showing signs of aging, I decided to give it another try — and I’m so glad I did. My skin is transforming daily. They say your skin can rebuild itself, and it really does — especially when you remove the buildup of dead skin cells. I’ve been using it morning and night, and I genuinely look younger. My skin feels polished, my pores are noticeably smaller, and I need much less makeup. Such a fantastic product — highly recommend!" —Sweet Caroline 

The album can hold between 20 and 60 pages and has 10 cover colors to choose from. 

Promising review: "The quality is better than I thought it would be! It was so easy to create and didn’t take too long to ship to me! I got it for my boyfriend for our anniversary and he loves it. It’s a fun way to capture memories and a really amazing gift that is so personalized. I’ll definitely order more in the future!" —spenfold19g

Get it from Artifact Uprising for $45+ (available in a variety of styles and sizes).

You can use each pen about 20 times and should expect your teeth to lighten 4–8 shades.

Promising review: "I have tried some other whitening products, including whitening strips, and this has been my favorite so far. The pen is really easy to use and I have definitely noticed my teeth are slightly whiter. I haven’t used it consistently enough to notice more permanent shade change, but I’m happy with the results for the random occasions I use it. It is much easier to use than whitening strips that have left my teeth with little white spots. I haven’t noticed any sensitivity either." —Michelle Ginsburg

Buzzfeed deputy editorial director Elizabeth Lilly has been putting this toothpaste to the test. She said, "I've been testing out the whitening version of this toothpaste, and it works just as well as any drugstore brand toothpaste without irritation. (I'll occasionally get irritation from whitening strips and treatments, and space them out because of it, but I've had none with this!) My mouth just FEELS cleaner when I use this, and it's even easier to use my tongue scraper after brushing, too! I think this has earned a spot as my new go-to."

Promising review: "TheraBreath Deep Clean is the best toothpaste I’ve tried! It keeps my breath fresh for hours, feels gentle on my gums, and leaves my mouth super clean. The mint flavor is refreshing without being too strong. Definitely recommend." —Maryna Ruzieva

Get a pack of two from Amazon for $13.99. 

After hearing what incredible things The Pink Stuff can do, I finally ordered it and tried it for myself. Honestly, wow! It really does work wonders. I tried it first on my Le Creuset cast iron pan (seen above, right) and was really amazed at how just one pass with The Pink Stuff (and a scouring brush) took off almost every stain! My 1-year-old colored with a blue crayon all over our play table, and The Pink Stuff took it off INSTANTLY — it was incredible to watch!

Promising review: "I’m very impressed! It removed stubborn mold and grime from my shower tile grout with the use of a hard-bristle toothbrush. It removed hard water stains from my sinks and faucets. I noticed it really does remove mineral buildup, but it takes a lot of elbow grease and repetitive applications before you start seeing progress. The texture feels similar to when you mix honey with sugar to make a lip scrub, except it’s super fine grit and more pasty like putty or clay. It works amazingly so far! No overpowering smell (barely any smell at all), easy to use, and a little product goes a long way. I haven’t tried it on rust yet so we’ll see how that goes. Overall, very pleased and impressed so far. Highly recommend!" —Marissa

Promising review: "This is a lovely carry-all. I bought one as a gift and then bought a second one for myself. Plan to use it when I harvest my veggies. The large size is perfect for my potato crop." —Janice Cavalli

Get it from Terrain for $78+ (available in two sizes).

BuzzFeed writer (and serious snack aficionado) Emma Lord is a big fan:

"Our family recently unearthed this because beloved To All The Boys I've Loved Before author Jenny Han mentioned that it was her secret to delicious popcorn, and it may have just wrecked me for other at-home popcorn for the rest of my life. It genuinely tastes just as salty and buttery and savory as fresh movie theater popcorn. I inhaled it so fast that every single one of my organs lit up in mild alarm."

Promising review: "The Flavacol popcorn seasoning is unbeatable. Just a small sprinkle gives that classic movie‑theater flavor, and the 35-ounce size lasts forever. It blends perfectly with hot popcorn and makes every batch taste richer and more buttery. A must‑have for anyone who loves making popcorn at home. The texture is amazing, the salt is on point, and it's a great value for money." —Jiovanni

Reviewers also love using it to help kids relax.

Promising review: "This little cloud guy is adorable and squishy! His face is very sweet, and the color morphing is great. I really like it’s calming, and even if you don’t use it for meditation, it’s a cute night-light." —RgHound

Promising review: "These pens last so long and are so consistent. I have put so many people onto these pens. I use them at work all day long and they give me no issues. The comfort of holding the pen is great, and the texture of the pen feels great as well. Would recommend for anyone needing pens for journaling, work, or school." —brooke

Get a set of five from Amazon for $6.47+ (available in 14 styles).

You can either use it as a scent inhaler or rub it directly on the tip of your nose for relief.

Promising review: "Took this on my first cruise. Anytime when I started to feel woozy I’d reach for it. I’m sure the required act of deep breathing helped a lot — and breathing in the fragrance of the essential oil is very calming and effective. Worked for me! Wonderful!" —Willy&Lilly

Get it from Amazon for $12.99 for a pack of two (also available in a pack of four). 

Promising review: "Who doesn’t need a WD-40 pen?? Seriously, just pop this little guy open and fix your squeaky doors, tough zippers, and whatever else you can imagine. It works great for tough-to-reach spots where you don’t want a bunch of drippy stuff. Sure, it’s a lot more dollars per ounce than the ol’ trusty giant can as far as value for money, but the convenience is unmatched. The packaging and pen cap are durable and sturdy, and I cannot imagine them being damaged before the pen runs out. A GREAT gift for the fix-it human in your life!" —Khalie Lynch

Get a pack of three from Amazon for $12.49.

For an extra $8, you can have the tote customized with anything you'd like! I personally own one that says "Unhinged," as that felt the most fitting for my current lifestyle as a mom of two. Anyways, you can get this classic-but-trendy bag for your spouse and put something silly on it like your nickname for them (Lovebug? Pookie? Old Sport?) or something classic like your shared last name.

Promising review: "Quality is really good and came as expected. Gave it as a gift to my boyfriend and he loved it!" —Chilijean

Get it from L.L. Bean for $32.95+ (available with or without embroidery, in sizes S–XL, and 10 colors).

Jerome Alexander is a small business that specializes in airbrush cosmetic products. 

BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord is a fan, "HELLO — I found this through a recommendation on a Reddit beauty forum for people in their thirties, and I am OBSESSED. I am not very skilled with makeup and was intimidated by the brush factor, but it's nearly foolproof. This foundation straight-up glosses over my pores and redness and makes my skin look so even-toned and natural that it doesn't look like I used much foundation at all. It's a bit price-y compared to brands I used in the past, but I'm still on my first bottle of it, and it's been three full months. I hope this never stops getting made. It is so lightweight and lovely and has made my makeup routine feel like a TREAT."

Promising review: "Bought this because I saw it on TikTok, and it did not disappoint. I love the lightweight feel of it and how easy it is to build." —Smickens

Get it from Amazon for $22.98 (available in 12 shades). 

Promising review: "The patches work great, I could see a difference just after a few uses. They stick really well and stay on all night. They feel cool and soothing and I love how easy they are to use. Highly recommend!" —M. Brinson

Get a set of 12 from Amazon for $15.99.  

Promising review: "These Band-Aids have the normal Band-Aid terrific quality, but they also have a delightful design so that they are so much easier to use when needed for young children. I hope to have this box for a long, long time, but realistically, they will be needed either for myself or for another. The design is whimsical and perfectly appropriate for both children and adults." —M

Get a pack of 30 from Amazon for $3.77. 

Promising review: "I had a horrible gray ring on the bottom of my shower that was impossible to remove. I had tried the Dawn Dish Soap method (with a lot of scrubbing), and even used toilet bowl cleaner to try to remove the soap scum. My next step was to tear out and replace the shower pan and tile. I figured this was my last chance and ordered the Wet and Forget Shower Spray and really coated the shower walls and floor pan and walked away. I CANNOT begin to tell you how happy I was to rinse down the walls sometime later and watch all that crud roll right down the drain!! This is the best product I have ever used!! Works great and no toxic fumes!!" —Amazon Customer

The Oura Ring 4 connects to your smartphone to help monitor your sleep, heart rate, and various fitness goals. I started wearing mine at the beginning of 2026 in an effort to kick my Apple Watch obsession and quickly became a fan. I love checking my sleep score (spoiler: I have two toddlers and my score is BAD) and keeping tabs on my stress levels throughout the day. My sisters and I have a "Circle" where we can each see our scores and chat about who slept the best/worst! I'm just getting started with it, but can't wait to dive into more stats.

Heads up: The brand recommends buying the Oura sizing kit for $10 first to find the best size — so you might want to gift it now to get the sizing right! Either way, you'll get a $10 credit back for the purchase of an Oura ring! 

BuzzFeed contributor Samar Hadri loves hers as well: "Introducing one of my favorite gadgets — the Oura Ring has pretty much not left my finger since I got it a few months ago. This ring is freaking fantastic! It tracks my heart rate, temperature (where was this during my fertility journey??), ~and~ sleep (and a whole lot more tbh). It uses biometrics to track my stress, how I'm feeling, and how much rest I'm *actually* getting at night. It even lets me know if my body is showing signs of illness, like a whole day before my first sniffles start!

It doesn't feel bulky on my finger or annoying to wear, and the gold color is pretty and matches the rest of my jewelry perfectly, so it doesn't look out of place with the rest of my stack. After watching me use it for a few weeks, my husband went online and got himself one too, because frankly, it was just too convenient! Plus, the battery life is amazing. I only charge this, like, once every five or six days! The app even has an AI advisor that uses your info to give you suggestions based on your activity."
