Learn more about different kinds of eye drops and what they can do at Cleveland Clinic. Note that eye drops can potentially mask symptoms of eye conditions, so you should talk to your eye doctor about what's right for you. And according to Mayo Clinic, you should avoid redness-reducing drops if you're looking for dry eye relief.

Check out a TikTok of the eye drops in action. 

Promising review: "I have a big spot of blood vessels in the inner corner of my left eye. I use the expensive lubricant eye drops for moisture — I've used Visine, Clear Eyes, you name it. No eye drop has made my eyes look this great. Only Lumify! I was soo happy when I looked in the mirror and saw some beauty in my eyes instead of darkness and redness." —Angela Leonard

Promising review: "We have been living in an RV resort, and the water is EXTREMELY hard! Even with a giant water softener attached, the hard water makes everything white and splotchy. I tried this product because I saw it on BuzzFeed. I should’ve taken before/after pictures, but I was too skeptical — this is a miracle product!!! Amazing results with little scrubbing. I just used a non-scratch sponge and holy cow!!! Our shower doors look like new, and this removed a water stain we’ve had for three years in no time! I ordered more instantly and am literally using it everywhere! Thank you for making the best cleaning product ever!" —Heidi

Promising review: "LOVE these covers. They are 100% effective, so much so that I wear them every day. I always wear a bra while out of the house, and these are perfect and so comfortable. I don't even know I have them on. They come in a cute little box that you can store in your lingerie drawer. I've bought several pairs and will continue to replace them periodically. Since I'm not using them as pasties to wear in place of a bra, they last me a lot longer. I also wash them in lukewarm water with a very mild soap and let them air dry. One pair lasts me 6 months this way. It is well worth the price of $25 to know I never have to worry about my nipples showing. I wish I had had these all my life. They are very well made and worth every penny." —Shelley Morrison

BuzzFeed editor Natalie Brown swears by these pasties! Check out her Nippies review to learn more.

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

The Bug Bite Thing works best on fresh bites, and includes two sizes of suction. For older bites, it also includes a scraper to take off the top of the bug bite for better results. Also, to avoid any red markings left behind by the tool, it is best to only hold the suction for about 10–20 seconds. 

Promising review: "This is one of the best things I’ve ever purchased! About two hours before it was delivered, I noticed a big, itchy, red bump on my leg. Perfect timing! 😆 I used it for the first time just a few moments ago on said bug bite, and I’m happy to report the redness, the bump, and the urge to scratch are all GONE! My flabbers are ghasted and I’ll be ordering a few more to keep in the car, my purse, the medicine cabinet, etc. 🦟" —David & Heather

This comes with a kit containing 10 toenail braces and tools for application. Each brace lasts 3–6 weeks.

Promising review: "I used to be in sports all through middle and high school, and it really messed up my left foot overall, especially my big toe. I was always embarrassed by my big toe during the summer that I’d put a bandage over it to make it seem like it was injured. Finding someone to fix your toe is expensive, and I don’t have that kind of money at the moment. Started doing research on ways to do so, and this one was the best way. It does take some practice, but once attached, it should not move. Your toes will hurt for a day. Like a dense pain. Not sharp. I saw a difference in about two weeks. I’m a month in on the most severe toe, and no more ingrown toenail!" —Sandra L.

Promising review: "We loved these containers and have now bought 20 to hold our entire game closet! We have been able to fit several games in some. Easy to store and easy for my kids to find and then put away when finished. Good quality, haven't had any problems with durability yet, and we play a LOT of games." —bradfieldfamily

I bought the set of six for eight weeks in Europe with one suitcase, and they were perfect for keeping me organized during the packing process and making sure I had plenty of space for my other essentials (and I am someone who packs for every possible scenario)! My advice: lay your clothes as flat as possible, not folded or rolled. This way, they stack more evenly and when you compress, have less of a lump in the center, which lets them fit together more seamlessly! The four larger cubes held all my clothes, while the smaller one fit toiletries and the shoe bag, all three pairs I took. And, when I was fully unpacked, the larger cubes doubled as a laundry bag! I've kept using them on all my trips, even just for organizing, and have had zero issues with durability. 

Promising review: "At first I was skeptical, but needed an option for packing for my two-week trip in a carry-on. I originally planned to use the largest bag for just my bottoms but as I was packing them (all items were rolled), I noticed I could fit more.. and moved on to all my dresses… then on to my bigger shirts… then ALL my shirts! Leading me to fit three pants, three skirts, two shorts, 10+ tops in just one bag! Zipping the extra compression was hard, but by going inch by inch, we made it!! Grante,d this is all light summer/ linen clothing, but I am still very impressed!!" —Amazon Customer

If you have any neck or back issues, talk to your doctor before use and read more about cervical traction at Cleveland Clinic.

For this, instead of like a regular pillow, you're supposed to lie on it in 10-minute intervals; the seller suggests working your way up to it by starting yourself off at five minutes at a time, with a one- to three-day adjustment period before regular use.

Promising review: "This neck relaxer is so easy to use! It took a few times to get used to, but it is not uncomfortable and is very much helpful with my chronic neck pain and shoulder tension. I felt pain relief after the first use! I have even been able to cut back on my chiropractor appointments because of this product. So thankful for this amazing find, as I am only 41 and have been struggling with neck pain for several years now." —Mary Beth

Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in five colors).

This is great for a bit of low-effort weekly maintenance, but if your shower is in need of a ~deep clean~, you can use this a few times in a row to get it all washed up before starting that once-a-week schedule. 

Promising review: "I kept seeing this on lists on BuzzFeed, so I finally caved and bought it. I mean, for $20, if it worked, great; if not, it wasn't a massive loss. But dude let me tell you! This stuff makes cleaning my shower SO RIDICULOUSLY EASY!! I will NEVER go back to getting on my knees and scrubbing the floor of my bathtub ever again!! ...I just spray my whole shower (including floor) down with this stuff, let it set anywhere from one hour to overnight (depending on how long it's been since I cleaned my shower), and then rinse it off. It is seriously that easy. I will stay stocked up on this product for as long as they make and sell it! The ONLY downside I've found is that it can make the shower floor a little slippery after use, but that's easily fixed if you just rub it down with a washcloth real quick. Absolutely worth the money!" —Jatia

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two scents, two sizes, and as a two-pack). 

Promising review: "There are the best things ever. I have jeans that fit great but the waist is always too loose. So I saw these on TikTok, and I was so curious to see if they worked or not. But seriously, you need to buy these, the buttons are great material and just the most useful things overall." —Alexa Botello

Get a set of eight from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in eight styles and various colors). 

Promising review: "In just a little over a month, my feet have had SUCH a transformation that I haven’t seen in over 10 years 😭 I’m only 30, but I’ve had problems with my feet since I was a teen. I’ve always been so insecure about them for obvious reasons. My feet literally shredded sheets! I’ve tried so many products, I’ve lost count! None of them did anything. Wasted time, money, and hope! But this product—it’s given me my feet back!! 😭 I don’t have to wear socks EVERYWHERE anymore! I will never buy another product!! My favorite part is that I don’t have to put nasty creams on my hands to rub into my feet anymore." —Amber Reynolds

Reviewers are also super impressed by how fast it works!

Promising review: "This cream has tightened the skin around my neck beyond my expectations. I’ve been using it daily (morning and evening) for over two months and still have product left. I’ve even tried it on my face, and it gives me a bit of a 'face lift.' I’m officially a Bond girl. A bit sticky to the touch after a few hours of wear, but that doesn’t bother me. Will order again." —AP Wang

Promising review: "I have a golden retriever, and the shedding is out of control. My fabric sofa is constantly covered in hair, and I finally decided to try this after reading an article about popular TikTok products. The reviews do not lie, this thing works magic!! I wish I had taken a before-and-after picture because the difference is noticeable. I watched the video tutorial before I tried it to ensure I was using it properly and everything he says is true, you do really have to put your arm to work with vigorous back and forth movement! However, I find it's a great arm workout, and it works wonders." —Joanne Ertel

Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in three colors). 

Promising review: "These are perfect for any kids’ room! I was getting so tired of messy stuffed animals and blankets all over, so it’s nice to have them out of sight but still easily accessible. My 2-year-old loves to sit on hers and read books. She doesn’t have a ton of stuffed animals, so there is plenty of room to add to it for when her collection grows. I love the fun bright print and sturdiness — she drags it all over the ground, but I don’t worry about it tearing at all. Just what she needed in her room." —dd

Get it from Amazon for $21.98+ (available in three sizes and 27 colors and patterns). 

The lotion is formulated without parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, or SLS. 

Promising reviews: "I just got it an hour ago because I have a sunburn so nasty I haven’t experienced anything like this in 20+ years. No matter how much aloe and vitamin E I applied, the pain was less than thrilling. I applied this and felt immediate relief. I’m very pleasantly surprised." —Holly C

"This lotion seriously saved my skin after a weekend of too much sun. I had some pretty uncomfortable peeling and dryness on my shoulders and chest, and it worked so well. It’s super soothing, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t feel greasy at all — just clean, cooling hydration. The aloe and coconut oil combo is perfect. It calmed the redness right away and made my skin feel soft and nourished. I even used it on my face without any irritation, which is rare for me with after-sun products. Definitely keeping this stocked all summer long — highly recommend if you’re dealing with sunburn, peeling, or just need a gentle, hydrating lotion post-sun! —Cathy

Get it from Amazon for $9.74 (also available in a coconut-scented three-pack). 

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 

Get it from Amazon for $4.66 (also available as a two-pack). 

Here's what BuzzFeeder Maitland Quitmeyer has to say about it: "I bought this for my white porcelain kitchen sink and I've since texted five people about it, which is really a lot for such a boring grown-up product. It cleans beautifully, but the *best* thing about it is its ability to repel stains after cleaning. You know that thing when you rinse out your coffee cup and the coffee water just lingers in your sink, and you have to purposefully rinse it out for two minutes? You don't have to do that — the coffee can't stick to the sink and just goes RIGHT down the drain. Time saved, sink clean — this is really a Virgo dream product right here."

Promising review: "Holy crap!!!! I only wish I had a before picture. Our porcelain kitchen sink was just disgusting. My husband tried his best when we first moved in to get it to even resemble the original white, but the bottoms were just permanently stained a tan color. I gave up. Installing a new sink was added to the to-do list. I saw this product on a BuzzFeed article and bought it on a whim. It was cheap, and I figured it couldn’t make the sink any worse. Holy crap! I’m absolutely blown away. I used a scrubbing brush drill bit on my power drill and went in a quick circle around the basin. 10 seconds tops. Boom. The sink was white. Not just white. The brilliant, bright original white it was supposed to be. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I called my husband over, and he stared with his mouth open at the sink, then grabbed this stuff out of my hand. 'What the f- is this stuff!!?' I went to town on both sides excessively for probably 10 minutes total, and my ugly sink looks shiny and white again. No more new sink for us. I couldn’t be more impressed. I’m subscribed now!" —Danielle

Btw— Hope's also makes a countertop cleaner and polish! 

Promising reviews: "So this product is completely worth the money. The quality is amazing. I didn’t notice any smell after a few seconds of using it. My skin was smooth and bright but not sticky. It works like magic. I have sensitive skin, so I can’t use this product too close to my nose, but in the rest, it's amazing!" —Isabela L

"What is this miracle in a jar?! The way my skin is so smooth right after the first use is [wild]. I will buy these for the rest of my life as long as I am breathing. This is now my FAVORITE skin product besides my sunscreen. Love, love, loooove" —Ryan M.

Promising review: "I could literally see a pimple appear one day and then the next, it's barely visible. My acne scars area becoming less and less noticeable. The woman at the beauty salon complimented my skin. She wanted to know what I was using because she saw the difference. This stuff is amazing!!! I will continue to buy and stock up on this stuff! Try this product! I am recommending it to everyone I know! :D" —Marty

Puracy is a Texas-based, family-owned business specializing in plant-based, chemical-free, hypoallergenic home products, with a donation made to local families in need with a portion of every purchase. 

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord can vouch for this: "Psst — this spray also does a number on all those other miscellaneous stains in your life, like wine, coffee, soy sauce, makeup, and period blood! I recently bought this to test it for myself, and can attest to how well it works to get period blood out even after you've tried something else. I stained a pair of beloved bright-blue bike shorts in my sleep and tried to get it out with soap and water, but the stain was still there when it came out of the wash. I treated it with this, stuck it back in the wash, and BOOM, it's like it never happened (I panicked before I could get a before and after, please forgive me, laundry gods)."

Promising reviews: "I've been searching for something to not only hide the cord mess but protect them from my munch monster of a cat. This box in addition to cable straps and cable wrap has solved my cable management like magic! I highly recommend this product." —Lauryn

Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in two sizes, three colors, and with or without a power strip).

BuzzFeed Shopping senior editor Natalie Brown used this and approves: "This is exactly what I used on the old drawer knobs above, and they came out beautifully and completely transformed the aesthetic of my coffee cart! The pictures really speak for themselves here! Yes, those are four glass drawer pulls I bought on clearance at Anthropologie like, 15 years ago, and transformed in the course of an afternoon with this gold leaf!

After constant use in my bedroom then in my kitchen for that long, their original gold-painted surfaces had certainly seen better days. I shopped around for other knobs but never found any I liked quite as much...and definitely not four for $20, which is what this gold leaf kit on Amazon costs. (Well, technically it's copper and some other metals, but it LOOKS gold, which is what counts.)

IMO it's a real value: for the price, you get the adhesive sizer, 25 sheets of the metal leaf, and the sealant. Just add a couple of cheap foam brushes and some cheap craft paint brushes and you have everything you need! It took me about four hours of Olympics-watching to perfect these knobs after scrubbing the old paint off. And I only used a fraction of the kit, so there's plenty leftover for even more projects!

Simply paint the adhesive on with a foam brush, give it about 2 minutes to set so it's sticky, then carefully lay the piece of gold foil over your object, and gently use a paint brush to coax the foil into all the nooks and crannies — which is SUPER satisfying. It's okay if there are some wrinkles or imperfections, because that's what gold foil's supposed to look like. Let dry, brush off excess foil, and cover any cracks or holes with the same process. Once you're satisfied, coat your item in the sealant, let dry, and it's all set!"  

Get the gold leaf kit from Amazon for $25.19 — or if that's sold out, the adhesive sizer ($9.79), sealer ($11.09) and the leaf itself ($10.99).

Promising review: "I've used the product for several days now and am very impressed with it! My hair has thinned a bit in the crown area with the passing of time, and this product helps to conceal it. I've used similar hair powders in the past but they were a bit messy, not this product! The sponge applicator helps the product go on smoothly and I usually then blend it in quickly with a tissue. The included brush is a little small but I imagine it would be good to use around the hairline. The powder also stays put until it's washed out. My natural hair color is light brown and I chose medium brown powder for a neutral, natural look. It also helps to camouflage any grays coming in. Don't be fooled by the container, it looks small when you first open the box but a little of this powder goes a long way. I'm happy to recommend it to anyone." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in two sizes and 18 shades).  

The color-adaptive formula is designed so one of four shades will work on any skin tone. 

Promising reviews: "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." —Monica T. 

"I have eye hollowness from using eyelash serums, so that has caused dark circles under my eyes. I'm also getting older and have a lot of fine lines. This is the only thing that has helped with both of those issues. It's so easy to apply and a little goes a long way. It doesn't settle into my creases and helps to moisturize my under eyes. There is a ton of product for the price, and I would actually pay more for it if they ever increased their prices. It's super lightweight and wears just fine throughout the day. I will repurchase again and again..." —Taylor L. 

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

Promising review: "It works wonders on all my clothes, removing pilling and fuzz in seconds. I've used it on sweaters, old shirts, blankets, and even my couch! Everything looks brand new again. The design is sleek and easy to hold, and the adjustable settings make it perfect for different fabric types. The shaver is powerful yet gentle enough not to damage delicate fabrics. Also very easy to clean after use. The large shaving head covers enough surface area, saving time, and the battery life is impressive. I was initially skeptical about how effective it would be, but after using it, I'm glad I bought it. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants to extend the life of their clothes to make them look brand new!" —Alex Park

It couldn't be easier to use — just dip the included brush in water, apply the cleaning solution to the shoe, then brush and wipe away!

Promising review: "I have had my Nike Roshe runs for about a year now, and I don't go easy on them. I play sports and run in the dirt with them all the time, but I also like to wear them for fashion purposes. Pink Miracle helped restore my daily shoes to look like I just bought them — now I can wear them for even longer. Very pleased with Pink Miracle, I will buy it again when I run out of my bottle." —Romario

Reviewers with everything from thin, straight hair to coarse, 4c hair mention it has worked for them. 

Promising review: "I looooove this so much. The smell is amazing, and it tends to stick around for a while, so I love getting whiffs of it throughout the day. My hair is softer and doesn’t seem as frizzy as before. I put it on after washing my hair and then after it’s dry. I tend to wash my hair two times a week, so I’ll use it in between washes on my ends to make sure they still look nice and healthy. Great value, too; I’ve been using it pretty consistently since purchasing, and I’ve barely made a dent in it. Love it!" —Noley

Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in two sizes, leave-in cream styles, and five other formulas). 

While restoring a finish isn't quite the same as completely refinishing a piece, it take much less time and can still make furniture (and floors, front doors, and kitchen cabinets) look new again.

Promising review: "Very easy to get results. I applied to eight dining room chairs which had scrapes, scuffs and white paint marks. An amazing transformation so quickly. I finished eight chairs in 90 minutes without rushing. I bought two pints but only one was necessary. I used a cotton cloth for most of the application but also used 0000 steel wool for the scrapes and paint removal." —Grumpy Neanderthal

Country Chic Paint is a family-owned small business that specializes in all-in-one paint. 

Promising reviews: "I've bought a total of four of these things. I went on a kick of painting all of my generic black/dark brown Ikea furniture. I used this on both the shiny/smooth furniture and the wood furniture, and it worked well on both of them. It definitely worked better on the wood furniture, though. The paint was unexpectedly very easy to use, and the color came out a LOT prettier than expected! It was easy to clean off my hands and brushes, and the paint came right off my clothes in the wash as well. Overall, I'm very very pleased with this paint and will purchase more if I need any crafty paint in the future." —Ann

"I saw this on TikTok and it looked so easy. I've hated my TV stand since I bought it. It was all black and just brought the room down. I used two coats, and it is perfect! 10 outta 10 recommend!" —Gig94Em

This also works on other moldy areas, like grout lines and window frames. 

Promising review: "OMG, it worked. I've tried everything under the sun to get rid of mold on the door seal/bellows on my clothes washer. Nothing made a dent. I put this on and left it for the next day. When I looked there was nothing to wipe off and no evidence that there was any mold ever. I highly recommend this product." —Peter Callinicos

Promising review: "If you have overactive sweat glands under the arms, this product works!! I've had issues with extra sweat for no reason since I was a kid. I finally saw this, read the reviews, and gave it a shot! It actually works! I use it once a week at bedtime after a shower. I have NO issues with sweat anymore under the arms. I can wear a long tee that's not black without worrying about sweat LOL. If you are having any issues with extra sweat, over amounts of sweat and need relief, this is a must." —Danielle Fallon

Promising review: "I read a lot of BuzzFeed Shopping, because I have to admit that I am an Amazon shoppaholic, and they have the best suggestions ever. Anyway, I always encounter this product on almost every article, and I thought that this is just overrated. But heck, did I have one of the most **dazzling** surprise in my life. This little pen is a game changer. I followed the instructions on the label, and as I was rinsing my ring under the tap, I just had to gasp. My engagement ring is new; just a little more than six months old, but oh, the shine. You can really see the difference. How did I live before this stick?!?" —evsworld

BuzzFeeder Heather Braga also mentioned that she uses it on her diamond rings, but it also works well on cubic zirconia earrings. 

Get it from Amazon for $9.48+ (available in two sizes, a two- or three-pack, and in a kit with the Diamond Dazzle cloth, also sold separately).

This includes two screen protectors, two cleaning tools, and one installation frame. 

Promising review: "It’s been about five months since I purchased this screen protector, and I have to say, that it’s held up well. The screen is beautiful when the screen is off. I’ve had a lot of compliments on the screen protector, and after five months and few light drops, it hasn’t cracked or gotten scratched up (minus a few wear on the screen like light scratches). Well-made and, overall, a great screen protector. Installation is pretty easy with the kit it comes with, and I still have the second unused that I may end up switching if at some point the screen actually cracks." —Timothy Jay

Promising review: "We let a neighbor kid use our dryer, not realizing he had crayons in his pockets. We did our best at the time to clean it, but there were still obvious stains inside. It sat in storage for a year and a half before I went at it again. I googled tricks to get crayon off, tried WD-40 like many advised, Goo Gone, nothing made that crayon budge. I happened to see The Pink Stuff listed on a Buzzfeed list, and decided to try it. WOW. It took just a little elbow grease, but not even close to what I was expecting. Its scent is really mild, too. If you have a stubborn stain, try it out! It truly is a miracle worker." —Emily

Promising review: "It bothered me that my dishwasher was black and didn't match my stainless steel stove and fridge, so I decided to give this a try. I'm glad I did! It legit looks like my dishwasher is stainless steel now. It's not big enough to cover the whole thing at once so there is a seem, but I put the seem on the lower half of the dishwasher and it's not very noticeable at all. If I didn't know to look for it, I probably wouldn't see it. Just make sure you wash whatever you're applying it to so that it sticks well, and go slowly when applying so you don't get bubbles." —Sharon

PSA: just be sure to research your plant before, because some are divas who don't like plant food. 

Promising review: "I enjoy having plants but I’m no green thumb. I tend to kill my plants on accident cause I never know what I’m doing with them. But I still have like 10 in my house cause I do love plants. XD 

I never use fertilizer or plant food, and have been skeptical if they actually work. Well, some of my house plants seemed like they weren’t doing well so I bought these cheap sticks deciding to give it a shot — and THEY WORK! My plants became healthy, thrived, and even started flowering after being dormant for several years! I was SHOCKED!!! I’m now a huge believer in these and buy them regularly! Highly recommend!" —MichiganMom

BuzzFeed Shopping is service journalism first: our writers and editors spend all day shopping so you don’t have to, vetting products, fact-checking brand claims, and surfacing what actually helps in real life. We center readers over revenue, recommend products with authenticity (using real experiences, not ad-speak), and reflect our diverse audience, inclusive of a variety of price points, people, and needs. We cut through fake deals, favor useful info over glossy fluff, and recommend both budget and splurge options with context so you can decide what’s right for you — and still have a little fun along the way.
