Promising review: “If you use St. Tropez tan products or any fake tanner, do yourself a favor and try this. This stuff is AWESOME. Dries quickly, lasts longer, does NOT make your skin stinky, applies evenly, and you get a fair amount of product!! Other tanners I’ve used become VERY noticeable when they start fading. Gross hand lines, patchy white spots, etc., but not this stuff. The best one-hour tan I have ever used!” —Review Writer

Caffeine has a number of skincare benefits, including brightening and temporarily reducing the appearance of stretch marks and cellulite, if that's something you're looking to do! You can read more about the skincare benefits of caffeine at the Cleveland Clinic.

Promising review: "I am 60 and I could not get rid of the cellulite on my legs. I started using this product six weeks ago and can noticeably see a difference. I apply morning and evening, before bed for optimal results. It goes on smooth and has a creamy, nonsticky feel. The smell is dreamy, and even my husband has commented on the improvement. Make sure you apply in a circular motion for optimal coverage, absorption and circulation." —Amazon Customer

You'll get one lip plumper and one minty sleeping mask for your lips.

Promising review: "I loved this stuff, it was magic. The evening moisturizer was fabulous. It is the first plumper that actually works for me. Will be buying more for gifts!!!!!" —Alexandra

Promising review: "This stuff is magical and the bottle size is perfect because you don’t need a lot of cream for under your eyes. This size will literally last months. I’ve only used this for three days but I’ve already noticed a difference. My under eyes feel super soft and hydrated and the best part is the cream is lightweight and rubs in nicely so it doesn’t feel like you have heavy goop under your eyes." —Phil

Get it from Amazon for $12+ (available in two sizes).

Promising review: "My dry neck and the annoying itchiness I used to experience have completely gone away after using this cream. It’s not only soothing, but it also feels like it’s really nourishing my skin. The firming benefits are a bonus! I highly recommend this product to anyone dealing with dryness or discomfort in their neck and chest area. It’s become a must-have in my skincare routine." —JAcosta

Promising review: "My skin dries out severely during the winter, and I have to constantly use Vaseline to keep it moisturized (normal cream doesn't work on me). Imagine my surprise when my SO tried to put snail goo on me. Eww!! I resisted for weeks refusing to use this product as she constantly vouched for its abilities. After a month, I finally gave in, and boy, it was amazing! My hands feel more moisturized than ever for longer, and it doesn't leave a disgusting, greasy feel like Vaseline. Take it from a once-nonbeliever: You have to try this. Even if it doesn't work for you, you paid a fraction of what you would've paid for any other name-brand moisturizers." —Kyoko Ozaki

Get it from Amazon for 	$19.40 (also available in a multi-pack).

Promising review: "What is this sorcery? Okay, so I’m not gonna lie. I thought all of the before and after pics were fake, but I was desperate so I bought this stuff anyway. I had been dealing with an irritation bump for almost three months that I couldn’t get rid of, so I did some research and tried a variety of home remedies, none of which worked. Then I stumbled upon the Briotech spray and saw the before and after pictures and wanted soooo badly to believe them. I also didn’t want to get my hopes up, so I wrote them off as fake. I bought this stuff anyway (again, I was desperate) and I’m SO glad I did. I bought it on Sept. 5 and my bump (which was huge and awful) was completely gone on Sept. 25. I’m still in shock that it worked, but i’m so happy it did. Buy this! Stick with it and I promise you won’t regret it!" —iamericadelaney

Promising review: "So I initially started using another kojic acid soap to help with my hyperpigmentation due to shaving my face because I have PCOS and have developed hirsutism. I’m usually a 'full face of makeup at all times' kind of girl because of my insecurities, but this soap has given me a new confidence. I used it for the first time Saturday night and instantly saw the results of this soap. My skin looks so much more even." —Adrienne Jerkins

BTW — it's also perfectly sized for carrying on the go in a purse, pocket, or toiletry kit.

Promising review: "I am so glad I gave this product a try, as it works amazingly well on my fine, oily hair. I have used almost every dry shampoo product on the market, and this is by far the best one yet. My hair looks beautiful, and I can now go nearly a week without washing (while still having absolutely gorgeous hair)! I used to have to wash my hair every other day when I was using my former favorite dry shampoo (and it made my scalp itch on day two). This product is definitely worth a try; it may soon be your favorite!" —Melanie Havert

Get it from Amazon for $17.60+ (available in three sizes and four shades). 

The kit includes 20 treatments of 35% carbamide peroxide gel, an LED light, a storage case, and a charging cable.

Promising review: "I really didn’t know which teeth whitening kit to go with but after much research from different platforms I decided to go with this one. And it did not disappoint! I like how the instructions are so easy and clear to read and understand! The awesome packaging is a major plus as well. My favorite part is the built-in timer, and there’s no long wire so I can walk around and do things while it’s working its magic!" —Mayra

Get it from Amazon for $34+ (available in two flavors).

Reviewers even the quality compare it to the Rare Beauty blush, except it's literally a fraction of the price!

Promising review: "Imagine sweeping on a blush that feels like a little whisper of color, just enough to give your cheeks that perfect, healthy glow. That's what you get with the E.l.f. blush. The formula is silky smooth, blends like a dream, and it sits on your skin so naturally, it's like a second skin. Whether you're going for a natural daytime look or amping it up for a night out, this blush has got your back. It's like a little magic in a compact, and it won't break the bank either. Plus, it's kind to our furry friends! Honestly, it's a total game-changer in your makeup routine! 🌟" —Jessica

Get it from Amazon for $8 (available in 12 shades).

Note: It's highly recommended to try the 10% or 30% strength before using the higher strengths.

Make sure to follow the instructions carefully and take your time because glycolic acid is strong and can possibly irritate the skin. And because it contains retinol, make sure to use a sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher!

Promising review: "This stuff is absolutely incredible. I finally decided to try an at-home peel in conjunction with retinoids. Take a look at the photos I posted [above] and you'll see how happy I am with my progress (after photo on the right taken five months later). I've used this peel once a week and have had incredible results. Previously I did three rounds of Fraxel, which only resulted in severe pain, peeling, and grossness. Oh yes, and an empty savings account. For 30 bucks every few months I achieved better results than I got at a dermatologist's office." —Meredith

Get it from Amazon for $24.95+ (available in four strength levels).

Promising reviews: "Look I don’t know what kind of magical potion is in this little bottle but I’ve used it approximately four times in the past week and my skin is GLOWING. My pores are suddenly nonexistent and my blackheads have shrunk. This stuff is amazing. Also it’s really moisturizing and not as irritating as other retinoids I have used in the past. The bottle is smaller than I was expecting but it is worth every penny. Great stuff. 11/10." —Demi

"This stuff actually works. I work in a spa and I’ve tried dozens of different products that cost five times the price to try to clear up my acn- prone skin and NOTHING has worked as well as Differin gel. One of my esthetician coworkers recommended it to me and dang if she wasn’t right. It will dry out your skin pretty badly so make sure you have and use a good moisturizer but my skin cleared up in less than two weeks and I’m still amazed." —Rin Wisell

Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in two sizes).

Promising review: "When I travel, my lips get so chapped! It's painful. I found this product when I searched for something for extremely chapped lips. I've used other O'Keeffe's products so I trusted the brand. I used this as directed in the morning and before bed and my lips healed up faster than ever. Also, on the next trip I went on, I took it with me and used it daily. My lips stayed healthy and didn't get chapped at all. This stuff is magic and I won't go anywhere without it now." —Anna C. Adams

Here's what former BuzzFeed Shopping writer Ciera Velarde has to say: "I've used this specific brand for years now and have found them to be the best at reducing the size and redness of breakouts! Whenever I notice a zit popping up, I put one of these on right before bed, and it stays put all night, even when I toss and turn a lot. By morning, it's much less noticeable and practically nonexistent when I cover the zit with makeup. It's such a great practically zero-effort way to treat blemishes!"

Promising review: "I absolutely love these pimple patches! They are a game-changer when it comes to treating breakouts. The patches stick well to my skin and are virtually invisible, so I can wear them during the day without feeling self-conscious. They work quickly to reduce the size and redness of pimples, often overnight, and help prevent me from picking at my skin. The patches are gentle, don’t irritate my skin, and are super easy to remove. I’ve noticed a significant improvement in my skin since I started using them, and they’ve become a staple in my skincare routine. If you’re dealing with breakouts, I highly recommend these pimple patches — they’re effective, discreet, and really help speed up the healing process!" —Ellie Stuart

Peach & Lily is a vegan skincare brand founded by celebrity esthetician Alicia Yoon.

Promising review: "It had to be said. These things are disgusting, that's why you should buy them. Squeeze part of your nose skin. Do a bunch of little pustules come out? Yeah, if you put one of these puppies on at night, you wake up, and that is all trapped inside that weird film. I dunno how it works. It's probably sorcery." —Jack Sawyer

Apply this directly to wet hair (not the roots) and massage for eight seconds, then rinse. Reviewers also say that it works on all hair types from straight to curly, 3a–4c!

Promising review: "OMG!!! Most amazing hair treatment I’ve ever used in my entire life. Most hair masks weigh my hair down, but since this is water, it makes it SO soft and bouncy. I’m obsessed and will keep buying. Holy grail." —Natasha

BTW, even reviewers with acne-prone skin love this product and say it doesn't cause breakouts after use!

Promising review: "I don’t usually leave reviews but this product is the best cleansing oil EVER !!!!! Worked flawlessly after first try and I can actually see the results immediately!! My gosh it’s light weight, smells relaxing. Massage it to your skin 5–10 minutes and you can see the magic. Will definitely add this into my skincare routine. JUST GET IT !!!!!" —Vince

All you have to do is combine the powder and activator and then apply it onto the skin. And after 10–15 minutes, simply rinse it off!

Promising review: "When you put it on, the smell hits you hard. As it is on your face the smell is not too bad and the mask tingles as it dries. Wash it off and reveal clean, smooth skin. Plus fun to take pictures looking like a cracked mess." —raine

Get an eight-pack from Amazon for $14.80.

Promising review: "I bought this after discovering that my ingrown leg hairs weren't actually ingrown hairs, but KP. This product was very well reviewed and although I avoid gritty scrubs because of my sensitive skin, I thought I'd give it a try. Wow. I haven't even finished the first tube and I'm seeing some amazing results just using twice a week. I am very impressed. This stuff really works. So happy to have beach-ready legs!" —Ghanimatrix

Get it from Amazon for $12+ (available in three scents and two sizes). 

Some reviewers even throw their mittens into the washing machine to clean it! This brand also offers a smaller mitten designed for your bikini area and a long, narrow back scrubber for other hard-to-reach areas. 

Promising review: "MAGIC. HOLY CRAP I LOVE THIS MIT! This cleared up 80% of the “chicken skin” I have INSTANTLY after one use. Also it took off way more dead skin than any scrub I’ve ever used. I never write reviews so I had to when I got this and loved it." —Cheyanne

Get it from Amazon for $11.39+ (available with one or two mittens, and gentle or medium exfoliation options).

Promising review: "I had peeling, weak nails for years. Tried everything. I bought this in February. This size bottle lasted a bit more than a month with me religiously applying it two to three times a day. I was really seeing great improvement, so I bought another bottle in late March. By May, all the peeling had grown out and my nails were getting stronger every day. I then bought the big 4-ounce refill bottle because I never want to run out of it again! Cannot recommend this stuff enough!" —Diana

Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in three sizes). 

Promising review: "My nails were in bad shape before I started using this product. I had one nail that would constantly split on the side, but not anymore. I saw the difference right away after using this product. The smell is great, good moisturizer for your cuticles, and wonderful ingredients. I definitely recommend it, and I will be purchasing another really soon." —Tasha Stewart

This reparative mask is designed for heat-damaged hair of all types, but definitely beloved by reviewers with fine and wavy hair!

Read our Elizavecca CER-100 Collagen Coating Hair Protein Treatment review to learn more about why my colleague calls it "the miracle product I've been searching for."

Promising reviews: "I have 4c hair and was looking for a protein treatment for my thin and fragile hair. I had recently used a product in my hair that had so much alcohol in it that it wreaked havoc on my hair, leaving it pretty damaged. I was skeptical about this product because I had never seen anyone with my hair type use it. Boy, was I wrong to doubt this product; it left my hair looking and feeling beautiful. I highly recommend it to anyone natural or with curly hair." —Therese-Claire

"I have super fine, blonde hair. I’ve run through likely hundreds of different hair masks and leave-in conditioners over the years, only to have them cling to my hair like nothing else, often leaving it feeling waxy and heavy. After a few rounds of clarifying shampoo, I reached for this stuff and it legit brought my hair back from the grave. Even with my hair being extremely fine, it leaves it soft, glossy, and gorgeous! I know some people have said they’re not a fan of the smell, but I find it to be super light and refreshing. Could not recommend this stuff enough!!" —Soph

Of course, this is not an overnight miracle product. You should apply this 2–3 times a day and eventually, you may start to see results!

Talk to your doctor before attempting to treat your keloid on your own, and learn more about keloids from Cleveland Clinic.

Promising review: "This product is amazing! Truly a miracle product. I had an AWFUL keloid forming near my nose piercing about six weeks after getting it done, and it was getting bigger and more irritated by the day. Nothing was helping. I bought this and started using it, and in less than two weeks, my huge keloid was completely gone! I was definitely skeptical and a little nervous when it didn’t seem to be getting noticeably smaller after a week, but then, the second week, it started totally disappearing, so give it some time to work if your bump is on the larger side. If you remain patient and apply it twice a day, it should do the trick!" —Jordan Caprigno

This brush can be used on all hair types, but many reviewers with 2c–4c hair say it's worked especially well! And you can use it on wet and dry hair. Reviewers who bought it for doing their kids' hair swear by it too!

Promising review: ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS OOOOMMMMGGG!!! I was skeptical at first, but given the reviews I figured I’d give it a try. I’m African American and have curly, kinky, coils... in between the realm of type 3/4 idk to be honest. All I know, is that when I went to detangle my fro after a long day, this brush easily slid through. I had to double take! I didn’t have to pretangle with a wide tooth comb I just dove right in. My hair is THICK! After each stroke I kept looking at the brush like, 'What type of sorcery is this!?' And to top it off ZERO BREAKAGE!!! Buy this brush!!!!!" —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in 11 colors and as sets).

Promising review: "I would use hairspray to hold my eyebrows and throughout the day I would sweat through it and it wouldn’t last. I tried this because the price was great and I’m gladI did. This product is awesome. I’ve had it on my brows for a nine-hour shift and they are still in place! It doesn’t dry and get flakey, nor does it feel uncomfortable on the skin. Lastly, I use brow powder and this does NOT affect the look of the powder nor does it smudge it. I will FOREVER buy this product." —Shelby

Get it from Amazon for $9.97+ (available in five shades). 

According to the Cleveland Clinic, some researchers have found rosemary oil to be as effective at encouraging hair growth as Rogaine! And read more about how biotin could help with the fullness of hair. 

Promising reviews: "Legit magic in a bottle. Wish I could order this stuff by the gallon. Took a chance on this because I was desperate, having already spent so much money on luxury and drugstore products with little results. I use this as a pre-treatment on scalp and ends before I wash hair. Scalp has improved dramatically. I feel like there’s not as much breakage/fallout, and my ends are fuller. (This is after like six months, but my scalp was better immediately.)" —Claire Blanchard

"I hardly write reviews.. but this one deserves to be written about!! My hair was falling out a LOT, and somehow just with the FIRST application onwards, I started seeing less fall. And now, after four months, I can see hair growth as well, and my hair is already looking thicker!! And I’ve been using it only once a week.. just a few drops and massaging in. Omg, how can anything be so simple and yet so effective!!! Amazing! Amazing!!! Whoever invented this.. hats off!!" —Dee

Promising review: "My son has eczema and sensitive skin. We had tried a lot of different moisturizer and didn't work out for him. Then our doctor suggested us to try Vanicream, it works like magic! You can actually feel the moisture for the skin, like an extra protection on his skin. And my son's eczema gets better too! We have been using this moisturizer ever since." —Kylie
