I have been a BuzzFeed Shopping contributor since 2022.

Promising review: "I must admit I was skeptical purchasing this, but WOW! It is amazing stuff. I have a serious problem with very dry hair in the climate I am in. In the winter, my fine, long hair is full of static all the time. It is frizzy and frustrating. I feel like my hair is back to normal, and the moisture is great! THANK YOU!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I’ve tried so many lip balms and this by far is the best. My lips were so chapped from the cold weather, and within a few days, they were healed. I also love feeling my lips tingle from the mint. So soothing!" —JW1188

Price: $10 (available in six scents and variety packs)

Promising review: "I have been using this deodorant for a while now, and it has become a staple. The clinical strength formula kept me dry and odor-free for well over 24 hours, even on the most active days. The Summer Rose scent was light and pleasant without being overpowering. The soft, solid formula went on smoothly and did not leave white marks or residue on clothing. I kept repurchasing because it consistently worked better than anything else I had tried. Highly recommend for anyone looking for all-day protection." —BusyMommyof5

Tower 28 is an Asian woman-owned business based in Los Angeles. The founder, Amy, started the brand after working 15+ years in the beauty industry. The company works to create vegan, cruelty-free beauty products that are perfect for any skin type.

Promising reviews: "The holy grail for sweaters! Geez, this product is amazing. I sweat a lot, especially in the summer. My face just drips, and I was having breakouts because of it. I purchased this product and sprayed it on my face or chest whenever I started to sweat, and I'm guessing it just killed any and all bacteria because it worked wonders, and I no longer break out from sweating. I will be purchasing this product for the rest of my life!" —Powers

"This is a refreshing spray that cools your face almost instantly. If you have rosacea like me, it's a godsend, because it actually lightens a flare. I'm going to be using it all summer!" —Phillpotts

Price: $12+ (available in three sizes and a combo two-pack)

Promising review:  "This is the holy grail for body wash. Everyone should have this in their shower routine. It smells fresh like almonds, and the oil makes your skin feel so good. It’s very moisturizing. Instead of reading this review, you should be adding this to your cart!" —Myke M

Price: $12+ (available in three sizes, a refill size, and two-packs)

Promising review: "I get cold sores about once a year — typically in winter, and I usually just let them run their course for a week! They're always so gross and painful. But, these little circles are god-sends!!! They completely take away the pain, and they even hide the ugly things!! They stick to the skin for the full recommended 12 hours, too! Most importantly — I'm at about day four, and it's shrinking with no scabbing! BUY THESE AND KEEP ON HAND. THANK ME LATER." —Stephanie Staudinger

Price: $12.97 (also available in a pack of 30)

Promising review: "THIS WORKS!! I injured my nail lifting a heavy box and pulled the nail up from the nail bed a little. Within a few days, I saw whitening of the nail bed, then a dark blue-green. Bad news: A fungal issue developed.

I trimmed back what I could and started applying this product, and within four days, the color returned to white, and now, 14 days later, the issue has completely cleared up. My nail bed is pink, and I am looking forward to the nail growing back strong and healthy. (Next time I do heavy lifting, I will wear work gloves!) For now, I will continue applying the med as directed to ensure the fungal spores are completely knocked out. I highly encourage anyone dealing with a fungal nail problem to buy this product." —Lion Spartan Woman

Price: $19.97 (also available in two-packs, with a file, and in a patch style)

Promising review: "I love this product! It’s easy to use, covers all of your face, and really helps with dry skin. It’s an essential part of my skincare/self-care routine. I was looking at other products, but a lot of them didn’t cover all of the face, which seemed a bit annoying. This one is perfect!" —Bella

Promising review: "My 6-year-old daughter has keratosis pilaris, commonly known as 'chicken skin.' This year, it really flared up during warm weather, so I gave this wash, along with lotion, a try. Wow, I saw results after just a few uses, and after a couple of weeks, most of her bumps disappeared. Thrilled we skipped a trip to the dermatologist! Can’t beat this price for the results either." —Ashley Steigerwald

Just presoak your feet, apply the gel, let sit for 5–10 minutes, and rinse! It's recommended you go back in afterward with a foot file just to make sure no residue or dead skin is left behind.

Promising review: "I've been using this for a couple of years now and apply it every few months, even in the winter. It does a great job softening the skin, making it easier to remove. It has made a huge difference in the look and feel of my feet. I highly recommend this product. So do yourself a favor and get some now! You'll only be sad that you didn't order it sooner and end those embarrassing, cracked heel, rough feet struggles you've been suffering through summer after summer." —Courtney

Price: $7.99+ (available in three scents and a bundle with a foot file)

Promising review: "This works so great. My cuticles were so dry and looked so unhealthy. Yuk! But once I put this on, they started to look better. Yay! After a few applications, they look great!!! Double yay! I even took it to Mexico and used it every day, and now my cuticles look so good. This is a great cuticle oil, and you apply it like nail polish. If your cuticles are dry, I highly recommend this!" —just some guy

Price: $10.80+ (available in three sizes)

Promising review: "I am totally amazed at how well this product works. Every winter, my cuticles would be so dry, and my nails would break and crack. And the worst was that the skin on the tips of my thumbs would crack, bleed, and hurt so much. I have tried numerous products, but nothing seemed to work... Until Hard as Hoof. My nails and cuticles have never looked better, and no more cracking, bleeding thumbs." —Amazon Customer

Price: $12.99 (available in four scents and a patch style)

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 review: "I have fine, very porous, frizzy hair that struggles with heat use and retaining moisture. I’ve tried so many expensive products to help with frizz and texture. Absolutely nothing compares to this. It repairs and protects my hair, but it’s not heavy or greasy. It also did not take away my natural volume. My hair was glossy first the first time in years after blow-drying it. It’s incredible!!! I’m so grateful this exists." —Rachel

Promising review: "I absolutely love this brush. I have very long, very straight, fairly thin hair, but especially in the winter months, my ends get really dry and get tangled into crazy knots (helped along by whatever gunk my toddler manages to get in my hair). I bought this brush because I needed some way to detangle my hair in the shower, and I was tired of ripping my hair out with my fingers. I wasn’t convinced that this was some kind of miracle brush when I bought it, but it has great reviews and plenty of people use it on wet hair, so I thought I’d try it, and now I use it every time I shower. I wash my hair first and put conditioner in it (don’t wash the conditioner out yet), and brush. The tangles are out in seconds, and there’s no pulling. I guess it has something to do with the different lengths of the tines or something because it’s so fast and smooth!! I won’t detangle my hair dry again if I don’t have to!"   —Taylor

Price: $9.99+ (available in two sizes, nine colors, and two-packs)

Promising reviews: "I started using this along with Crotizone 10 for my eczema about four times a day, both for the first week or so. The combination of both has gotten rid of my dishidrotic eczema and painful skin cracking on my hands. I have been battling with this BS for so long, and it is finally healed! I can now go through winter with soft hands and no cracks. I LOVE IT and THANK YOU!" —PK

It's lightweight, nongreasy, doubles as a heat protectant, and can last through three to four shampoos!

Promising reviews: "I have extremely dry, coarse, and frizzy hair. My hair is also lightweight, which adds to the frizz. I used it twice this week, and I was pleased with how well it worked. I've used other products that say they will keep your hair smooth and straight, but they didn't work for me. This product, however, works for me, and I plan to purchase more in the future." —Amazon Customer

For best results, you should apply the cream after washing your hands, after showering, and at bedtime.

Promising review: "This stuff works great for dry and cracked skin. I couldn't recommend it more for cold, dry winters. There isn't really a scent to this moisturizer; it just smells kind of neutral, which is a plus to me. One thing that did catch me off guard was that its consistency is similar to hardened coconut oil, but it rubs in well once the skin warms it up. It does a great job protecting the skin once it's fully absorbed. Just be sure to reapply after washing your hands. I've had good results applying a thick coat of this at night." —Jack Stewart

Promising review: "I’ve been using these teeth-whitening pens for quick touch-ups and I’m honestly SO impressed. They’re super easy to use, no trays or mess, and perfect for busy days. I noticed my smile looked brighter after the very first use, 🤯 and I didn’t have any sensitivity, which is a big win for me. This is one of those low-effort products that actually delivers and stays in my bag for on-the-go whitening." —Samantha Carpenter

Price: $7.45+ (available in packs of one, two, or four)

Psst: And if you don't want to shave, don't let anyone make you feel like you have to!!

Promising review: "These are probably the best razors that I’ve ever owned. I have tried a lot of different disposable razors, and these are by far the most comfortable and leave very little irritation, if any at all." —K

Promising review: "They gently exfoliate without irritating my skin and leave my face feeling clean, smooth, and refreshed. I’ve noticed brighter skin and a more even tone with regular use. Super convenient, soothing, and perfect for daily skincare — no wonder they went viral!" —Maria Miyar

Price: $41.31+ (also available in a two-pack)

Psst! Bio-Oil contains retinol, which accelerates skin turnover but can make you more sensitive to the sun — so don't forget your sunscreen!

Promising review: "I swear by this product. Very effective on discolored skin due to scarring. I had shingles on my face brought about by stress because we were moving. It ravaged the lower right side of my face, and I was pretty sure it was going to leave hideous scarring. I bought this and started applying it when I started scabbing, and I still haven't stopped using it until now. I had my shingles in April, and it's August now. It works. Check the before and after pics. Scars are now gone." —twitch

Price: $10.26+ (available in three sizes).

Promising review: "I really love this! I have replaced the nose patches with this product, and I'm so happy! It really pulls the dirt out. Does the same thing as the nose patches without the drying time or itching. Remember to keep the area wet that you're working on, though. I did have some issues with the silicone covers to use while washing my face. They do not like to stay on. I had to hold a finger up at the base while cleaning my face to keep the silicone cover from slipping off constantly. You can actually see it pull out whiteheads and blackheads while using it. Go slowly to get the most from it." —Onetreasure

Price: $16.99+ (available in three colors and a waterproof option)

BuzzFeed Shopping contributor Rachel Dunkel looooves this stuff: "Not my skin above, but I 100% vouch for this liquid exfoliant's amazingness. It's helped to even out my skin tone and control the hormonal acne around my mouth. It's the only thing I feel like has actually helped start to slow down those breakouts, and for that, I'm forever thankful. I apply a thin layer in the morning and at night after cleansing and before moisturizing."

Promising review: "GAME CHANGER! I thought I had tried EVERYTHING on the market for congested skin (I don’t get breakouts anymore, but very clogged pores along the T-zone) and enlarged pores. I’ve only been using it for a week and just at night, and the difference in blackheads along my nose and enlarged/congested pores is almost unbelievable! This just might be my very favorite Amazon purchase EVER!" —Ajdex

Price: $15+ (available in two sizes and two-packs)

Hero Cosmetics is an Asian woman–founded brand and home of The Mighty Patch. Ju Rhyu launched the brand in 2017, which has evolved with products such as cleansers, toners, nose strip Mighty Patches, and more!

Promising review: "Using this product has been a game changer. It’s as if the adhesion of it literally pulls all of the bad stuff from the spot, and you’ll know when it’s time to remove it when it turns up white on your sticker — so easy to remove, and my spot has gone drastically down. I’m on my fourth box, or maybe fifth? They’re my go-to at the slightest spot I get to try to nip it in the bud. Might I add that my hormonal cystic acne spots have been majorly suppressed by these — as soon as I feel one coming on, I take a hot washcloth to the area and put a sticker on overnight for a couple of nights, and the deep underneath feeling of that spot is gone. I love these so much, and you will too." —Deborah Hart

Price: $11.89 for a 36-count pack (also available in a pack of 72 or 75)

Promising review: "This stuff is PHENOMENAL! I've had breakouts down there since my teens, but it's seemed to get much worse with age. I can sweat for five minutes, and boom! Breakout time. Benzoyl peroxide wash just wasn't cutting it anymore, so I decided to give this lotion a try. After using it for only a few days, morning and night, my breakouts were gone! Smooth as a baby's bottom! The name of the product was a little off-putting, but the label came off of the bottle super easily, so you can keep it discreetly without anyone knowing what it is. I'm SOOO glad I decided to give this stuff a try. Seriously, a game changer!!" —Pamela

Promising review: "These little tissues really take the shine off of my face. After using them, I was told my face looks like I was wearing makeup, which I do not. I will buy these over and over again, they really work." —Georgette

Price: $5.99 (available in bamboo charcoal or green tea versions)

Promising review: "This smells delightful and I do feel like it makes a difference for mild headaches, and takes the edge off strong ones. I didn't expect it to work magic, and it doesn't get rid of migraines...BUT it does provide its pleasant and a little bit of a tingle feeling on the neck that gives you something else to focus on. Also, if something smells icky around you put a little on your wrists and it will give you a distraction! —Danielle Dee

Price: $12.95 (also available as a three-pack)
