Promising review: "These socks brighten my day every time I wear them. I love that they hold hands and have other sock friends to hold hands with. I gave the second pair to a coworker so we can high-five throughout the workday. Makes our hard days better and our good days even brighter!" —AK Lady

Promising review: "If this isn't the cutest thing EVER! I use it for carrying my ponytail holders, bobby pins, etc. in my purse. I totally heart it." —Pudingal1

Promising review: "I got this for a coworker who had been stressed out lately and happens to love chicken tenders/nuggets. She loves it and has kept it in her office. Everyone comments on how cute the nuggets are and can’t resist picking them up." —pantone76

BuzzFeed Shopping contributor Jonathan Mazzei says, "My girlfriend got me this book as a gift a few years ago, and it turned out to be even better than I expected! The prompts are super fun, and help you to think outside of the box even during those moments when you feel like you have no ideas. It's great to casually doodle in while passing time since you don't have to think of what to draw, but it also can be really helpful when brainstorming for creative projects. My girlfriend is a visual artist and graphic designer, and she loves using it to play around with ideas and make her think of things she never would have thought of without it. Plus, it's small and super portable! Highly recommend!"

Promising review: "Saw it one day when I was just browsing. That’s usually dangerous, I know. It’s actually heavier than I thought it would be, in a good way though. It’s not cheaply made. I’ve gotten a few laughs from people in other vehicles. The only side effect is if you get upset at other drivers, it isn’t very intimidating when you’re giving the mad stare. LOL. I was pleased with the purchase in all." —Charles Ramsey

Promising review: "This is so cute. I'm so happy with this. I'm not sure how they managed to keep this from swinging all over the place like some things that you hang on your rearview mirror, but this doesn't do that. Maybe it's the two-string design. Whatever it is, I appreciate it. I forget it is there. It's big enough to see but not overbearing in size. It is really nice quality and a nice weight. I am pleased with my purchase." —Rebecca

This little dancing dude is 17 inches tall! It uses 9-volt alkaline batteries (must be new) or an AC adapter — using an AC adapter with the proper specs is the recommended choice for best performance.

Promising review: "I opened the package and screamed for joy! As I placed the 9-volt battery, my hands were trembling with what was going to happen next! As I turned on the wacky waving inflatable tube man, I knew I have a friend for life. Someone you can really count on cheering you up when you are feeling down. He brought me such joy I started to cry with laughter and happiness." —Robert Wurstner

Promising review: "These slippers are fantastic! The shark-inspired design is refreshingly unique and adds a fun touch to my loungewear. Beyond their cool appearance, they are incredibly comfortable to wear. The plush padding feels like walking on clouds, and the fit is just right. I appreciate how easy they are to clean as well; a quick wipe or rinse and they look as good as new. These slippers have become my go-to footwear around the house, and I couldn't be happier with them!" —Y.H

Get them from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in women's sizes 5.5–12.5 and 10 colors/styles).

Promising review: "This dino chicken nugget pillow is a real Jurassic dream come true! It's the perfect cuddle companion for all the paleontologists-in-training or anyone with an insatiable appetite for comfort. Just be careful not to accidentally take a bite while you're napping, because it looks deliciously deceiving!" —LadyTee

Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in three styles, two sizes, and in multipacks).

Promising review: "I am always using super drying products on my face to target this annoying adult acne I now have, but that causes flaky skin. I have sensitive skin so there are only so many affordable store-bought scrubs I can use, and so far the ones I've tried don't do enough or anything at all. The FIRST TIME I used this I literally watched my pores get cleaned out and my skin wasn't irritated at all by the ingredients. The scent is very pleasant and not too strong at all I think. It seems like it will also last awhile because I really used the heck out of it the first day because it was working so well and my pores are deeply clogged. When I was done, my face looked SO much better and was super smooth; I was really amazed that this tiny little Tako could do that. I love this thing!" —Diane Delfino

Promising review: "I love this little guy. I found him on a BuzzFeed list and had to have it as soon as I saw it! I’ve minced as many as five cloves in it in seconds. It’s a little tricky getting all of the garlic out once minced (I use a silicone basting brush to get most of it but I always use more than the recipe calls for anyway so it’s not a deal breaker). Cleanup is a breeze because he goes right in the dishwasher!" —Barbie

Promising review: "I didn’t believe it would be that good, seeing as that, it was so cheap. But to my surprise, this carpet is absolutely incredible. It’s soft, colorful, and all of my guests love it! You will not regret buying this funky carpet. I can assure you, you are not going to be disappointed. I know that’s hard to believe because you don’t know me, but trust me, you’re going to want to buy this. Believe me." —izzella

Promising review: "I got this for my birthday. I love it so much! It's completely functional and super easy to clean. The best part is that it's fun! She just sits in the soup, hanging out, watching everyone enjoying their soup, waiting to be useful." —SKW

Promising review: "Absolutely love my Nessie bookmark. The product looks exactly like the images on the website. It's very durable and gives me a small boost of serotonin every time I pick my book back up to read. I've already gifted to a few people." —Brisag64

Promising review: "It’s half my height and it’s softer than I expected it to be. Takes up a good portion of my bed. It came inside a vacuum-sealed bag, and it fluffed up in seconds. It was not flat whatsoever. My dog thought it was real 😂. Just took a nap with it. Very comfortable, especially when I sleep in the fetal position. It looks very realistic and goes well with my France Countryball plush. Would 100% recommend." —Emily C.

Promising review: "Honestly, I saw this tarot deck and thought I needed this for ha has. But man. This deck’s images are hilarious. It’s so much fun, and I felt so drawn to it as soon as it was in my hands. I am smitten over these kittens. 😍 10,000% worth the purchase!" —Kathryn Prouty

Promising review: "This is both ridiculous and spectacular. It just might be my best Amazon impulse buy ever." —Meredith

Promising review: "Such a cute little item. Giving this to my friend for her birthday. It's one of those things you didn't know you needed 'til you see it." —Theresa Jenkins

Get six magnets from Handy Cute Art on Etsy for $10.50.

And check out this creative reviewer, who used the magnets as cake toppers!

Promising review: "Hilarious and perfect for our fridge. It is a little unsettling how real some of them look! I will be buying more colors of them. The magnets have varying strengths, but I think that has to do with the way the sushi is around them. They hold up an average sheet of paper or photograph just fine, though!" —Katherine Storm

Get a set of eight from Amazon for $12.23 (available in two styles or four non-sushi styles).

Promising review: "I love this SO MUCH. I embrace my inner snail every time I wash my face. It's soft but not too fluffy and thick. It has a nice stretch, but it's also not too loose where I feel like it's falling. Buy some for you and your snail friends :)" —sam

Promising review: "I have actually bought a couple of packs of these. I think they’re so cute and fit so well in a little plant or around the house. Sometimes, I like to let my friends pick out some little guys as members of their families.  Plus, did I mention how cute they are? And they glow in the dark very well." —Jen

Promising review: "This is so cute AND useful to hold your stirring spoons. With the claws being silicone, they can expand to hold different thicknesses of spoon handles. The lower body of the crab detaches, allowing you to use the bottom claws to hold cooking utensils too! Love this kitchen tool!" —Catherine R. Yacola

Promising review: "Spacious. I love this little pouch; it’s so cute and even bigger than I thought it’d be." —Sarah R. 

Get it from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in eight colors). 

Promising review: "This product is a little smaller than maybe what I was expecting. But, regardless, it is still very comfortable. I spend a lot of my time sitting on the computer but don’t have a legitimate desk chair, and this has definitely been a breath of fresh air for my rather unforgiving wooden kitchen chair. Plus, I was looking for something cute and fun to bring some more color to my apartment, and this adorable duck definitely accomplishes that. I think it would be extra perfect for kids, too!" —Claire Rorick

Promising review: "I have pretty long hair down past the middle of my back, and this clip holds it all! It feels sturdy and decently made." —Melanie

Promising review: "The first thing that caught my eye was the adorable design. The pink resin hand is not only functional but also adds a touch of whimsy to my vanity or bedside table. Practicality-wise, it's a gem. The fingers securely hold my rings in place, making it easy to keep them organized and accessible." —E. Kaz

Promising review: "I think this might be one of the best things I've ever bought on Amazon. I bought one sheet for my mom for Christmas, and they just came. She hasn't seen them, but I know they'll crack her up. They look fantastic. I'll definitely buy more!!" —Claudia

Promising review: "Otto fits right in. Exactly what I was looking for. It's perfect as a footrest. It comes with little discs to put on the legs to even it out and keep it from wobbling. Took a little fiddling with but eventually got the legs level." —Panda

Promising review: "Love this! Was not sure if it would end up being stuffed in a drawer or a novelty. It’s one of the best things I have purchased in a while. I purchased a second as a gift." —Tammil
