If You Haven't Read The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up Yet, Now's the Time!

via: Amazon

I'm sure you've at least heard of Marie Kondo's new show on Netflix — maybe you've already binge-watched the entire first season and vowed to do your own KonMari-ing to finally tidy up your living space. If you really want to do it right, you should probably read the book. It's super short, but it packs in so much info and motivation that you'll soon find yourself looking at everything you own and asking whether it sparks joy.

The Little Book of Hygge Will Transform Your Whole Life

This book is short and sweet (I finished it in a single sitting) but you’ll find yourself going back to reference it several times as you make your home cozier. If you’re not familiar with the term “hygge," it refers to the Danish practice of making life cozy and comfortable, whether that be by lighting candles, eating chocolate, drinking tea, or all three. It’s such a delightful read that will really make you want to slow down and take steps toward making your life better.

These Baby Foot Peels Are Both Gross and Awesome

In order to use them, you just put the plastic “socks" on and wear them for about an hour. Take them off, and rinse your foot. Over the course of the next few days, your dead skin will literally start to slough off, revealing the baby-soft skin underneath. And I do really mean “slough off." It’s kind of amazing and also pretty disturbing. But ultimately worth it.

This Teeth-Whitening Charcoal Powder Turns Your Teeth White by First Turning Them Black

You’ve probably seen something like this on Instagram, right? The idea is that the charcoal pulls stains off your teeth through a process called “adsorption." All you have to do is wet your toothbrush and dip it in the charcoal powder, then brush your teeth like normal for a couple minutes before spitting and rinsing. With regular use, the activated coconut charcoal will whiten your teeth without the use of harsh peroxides. And don’t worry — it’s vanilla mint-flavored! It won’t taste like your chomping on coal briquets.

The Instant Pot Is Like a Slow Cooker on Steroids

via: Amazon

People who have Instant Pots are obsessed with their Instant Pots. Seriously, there are more than 30,000 reviews on Amazon — the vast majority of them are absolutely glowing. The Instant Pot combines seven different appliances into one. Use it as a pressure cooker, a slow cooker, a rice cooker — you can even use it to make homemade yogurt! I'm going to go ahead and assume that you already know someone who has this, and you've already heard them singing the Instant Pot's praises.

Jade Rollers Are the New Way to Treat Yo' Self (And Yo' Face)

via: Amazon

I actually have one of these and I’m going to be completely honest with you — I have no idea if it actually does anything. BUT! It does feel amazing, so that’s why I’m recommending you get one, too. The idea is that the jade rollers encourage lymphatic drainage, which eliminates under-eye puffiness and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Honestly, though, even if it didn’t do all that, I’d still use it every day because it’s like treating your face to a mini cooling massage!

Thousands of People Swear by This Indian Healing Clay

via: Amazon

Literally, thousands. The stuff has more than 14,000 Amazon reviews, people! In doing some of my own research (I’ve been thinking about buying this stuff for myself for a while!), I’ve learned that adding some apple cider vinegar to the clay gets you the best results. This 1-pound container is currently listed for about 10 bucks, so now’s definitely the time to give it a try. And if you're looking for a good apple cider vinegar...

...The Internet Recommends Bragg's Organic Raw ACV

via: Amazon

In fact, you'll see that people tend to buy Bragg's ACV in conjunction with the Indian Healing Clay. Something about this particular brand of apple cider vinegar has people swearing up and down that it's just the best. And it's not just for use on your face — you can also use it just as you would any other apple cider vinegar. It makes for a great salad dressing! People also swear by drinking a bit of it diluted in water every morning to prevent heartburn and clear your skin (yes, really). I'm not saying it's a miracle product...but there are a lot of people out there who are.

Make Your Eyebrows Pop with Wunderbrow

via: Amazon/DJNemo

We seem to still be solidly obsessed with on-fleek eyebrows these days. That's great if you have naturally amazing eyebrows, but most of us don't (curse you, former me for over plucking!) This eyebrow gel comes in five different shades. It's long-lasting, transfer-proof, and waterproof. Best of all, it's not just a gel. Wunderbrow also contains hair-like fibers that fasten onto your eyebrows and make them look fuller and completely natural. It's some kind of magic, I'm pretty sure.

These Air-Purifying Bags Absorb All Kinds of Nasty Smells

via: Amazon

They’re filled with activated bamboo charcoal which naturally works to absorb gross odors and leave nothing but fresh smelling air behind. Grab a few to put in your gym shoes, hang in your closet, or leave in your car. Wherever musty or stinky odors are present, these fancy bags will find them and eliminate them for good. They’re also totally safe to use around your pets and/or kids!

This Digital Tire Pressure Gauge Makes it Easy to Check Your Tires

via: Amazon

Having adequate air pressure in your tires doesn’t just provide better gas mileage; it also reduces the risk of blowouts and increases the overall safety of your car. Unfortunately, using the old-fashioned tire pressure gauges isn’t always super intuitive, and it can be difficult to tell exactly what number the device is showing. That’s where a digital gauge makes things easier. Simply attach it to your tire and with the simple touch of a button, it’ll display your tire pressure. The backlit screen allows you to use it day or night.

You Can Always Count on the Body Back Buddy for a Great Massage

via: Amazon

Pretty much everyone could benefit from regular massages, but not many of us can afford a trip to a massage therapist every week. The Body Back Buddy has a unique S shape and 11 accurately placed therapy knobs located all over it which you can use to massage just about any part of your body. Use the Body Back Buddy to relieve tension, spasms, and knots.

Treat Yourself to a Head Massage with a Head Scratcher

via: Amazon

I know they look a little silly, but these head scratchers are a seriously amazing way to de-stress and relax your entire body. Within seconds of applying the massager to your scalp, you’ll start feeling all tingly and relaxed — all the way down to your toes. Each of the wire tines is tipped with an acrylic bead that protects against scratches. Trust me on this one — you want one of these things in your home.

This Pregnancy Pillow Is Seriously Amazing

via: Amazon

OK, yes, it is technically meant for pregnant people, but I don't think there's anyone alive who wouldn't love to be snuggled into this thing for a nap. Rather than rounding up a bunch of pillows to support your hips, back, and neck, just use the Snoogle! If you do happen to be pregnant, the Snoogle also does a great job of supporting your belly. The Snoogle design was developed by a registered nurse and mom, so you know it's good.

This Magnetic Phone Mount Is a Must-Have Accessory

via: Amazon

I have this exact phone mount in my car and I wouldn’t dream of driving without it — I even bring it with me when I travel to use in my rental cars. All you have to do is pop the included thin metal plate inside your phone case and clip the magnet onto your AC vent. Your phone attaches to the magnet effortlessly and allows you to easily see the screen whenever you’re using it for navigation.

PopSockets Are Another Great Phone Accessory

via: Amazon

You've probably seen these around already as they're super popular— now's the time to get your own! Having a PopSocket on your phone (or tablet!) provides a super secure grip so you can text or take photos and videos using only one hand — and not have to worry about dropping your phone, either. When you're not using it, it pops down flat so you can put your phone straight into your pocket. They're available in all kinds of colors and styles, so you can definitely find one to fit your personality.

Everybody Poops, Ergo, Everybody Should Have Some Poo-Pourri

via: Amazon

Comedic name aside, this stuff is basically manna from heaven…if manna was a toilet spray specially formulated to make your trips to the bathroom less stinky. Simply spritz the stuff in the toilet before you go, and it creates a film on the surface of the toilet water that traps scents within the toilet. No more smelly candles. No more “lighting a match." Just spritz, poo, and enjoy your life.

The Squatty Potty Will Make Your Poops Better

via: Amazon

If you haven’t tried a Squatty Potty yet, it’s time to catch up with the rest of the world. Humans are meant to squat while pooping. Once you do, well, you’ll never want to go back to the old way. The Squatty Potty is a plastic stepstool made expressly for the purpose of propping your legs up into a squat while you take care of business.

A Bidet Will Make Your Bathroom Trips So Much More Luxurious

via: Amazon

If you think about it for a sec, bidets make so much sense. You wouldn’t “wash" your hands after a bathroom trip by just wiping them off with dry paper, would you? Of course not! But that’s what a lot of people do with their bums! I propose that we all get bidets instead. You can install this one yourself in about 30 minutes and minimal effort or knowledge about plumbing. Once you do, you’ll never go back to the bidet-less lifestyle.

If You Have Long Hair, You Should Also Have a TubShroom

Nobody knows exactly how it happens, but if you have long hair, you’ve undoubtedly wound up with a gigantic clump of hair in your shower drain. It’s inconvenient, gross, and pretty tricky to get rid of. If you want to eliminate those clogs, the TubShroom is a great first step. It fits in any standard tub drain hole and catches hair — of any length — before it goes down the drain. I like that it keeps the hair hidden, too, unlike those drain covers made out of metal screens.

This Fabric Defuzzer Works Like a Charm

via: Amazon

This fabric defuzzer has nearly 7,000 Amazon reviews, so you know that people are obviously pretty big fans. I actually have this same model and I can definitely vouch for it — I use it on my couch to remove the tiny pills that naturally form on the fabric over time. You can also use it to defuzz sweaters and keep your wardrobe looking as good as new.

This Tongue Scraper Puts a Stop to Bad Breath

via: Amazon

You can brush your teeth all you want (and you should!), but your tongue is actually a main source of bacteria that causes bad breath. Using your toothbrush on your tongue is a good start, but if you really wanna get that stinky gunk out of your mouth, you should opt for a tongue scraper like this one. With just a few scrapes, your tongue will be clean and your breath will be fresh!

These Oval Makeup Brushes Look So Cool

via: Amazon

And they're supposed to be really great for makeup application, as well! I always see these in makeup tutorial videos and want to get my own set — if I had known you could get them for about 15 bucks, I would have bought a set a long time ago! The unique "toothbrush" shape makes it easier to hold creams, powder, and liquid makeup, and also makes it easier to apply them to your face.

Bee's Wrap Is the Storage Solution of the Future

via: Amazon

It’s made with organic cotton and beeswax! Use the warmth of your hands to soften the wrap and form it over a bowl or a piece of food. You can wash it, reuse, and compost it, making it an awesome alternative to plastic wrap. Each sheet lasts for about a year (assuming you use it a few times per week). The wrap also comes in several different fun patterns and designs.

This Foldable Drying Rack Is Amazingly Popular

via: Amazon

Here's another inexpensive tool you can use to keep your clothes looking nice. You'll also save money on your energy bill, which is a great bonus. This drying rack is made of durable yet lightweight steel that makes it super easy to move from room to room. Whenever you're not using it, it folds flat for easy storage under your bed or beside your washer. It's also waterproof, stain- and mildew-resistant.

These Velvet Hangers Will Instantly Transform Your Closet

via: Amazon

You may think that all hangers are created equally. Well, I’m here to tell you they’re definitely not. These ones are covered with velvet which holds onto any type of clothing from a heavy sweater to the lightest silk tank top. I actually have these exact hangers in my own closet right now, and I wouldn’t use any other kind. They’re also much thinner than standard hangers, meaning you can fit way more clothes in the same amount of space.

This Dish Drying Rack Rolls Up!

via: Amazon

If you ever handwash dishes, you know how annoying it can be to deal with a bulky drying rack taking up a bunch of counter space. Rather than having to give up that precious counter real estate (as well as having to keep it in a cupboard when you're not using it), this drying rack can be rolled up and stored in a much smaller space. Not only that; it can also be used as a heat-resistant trivet! It's made from silicone-coated steel which can withstand up to 400ºF.

A Microneedling Tool Is Just What the Dermatologist Ordered

via: Amazon

No, it's not a torture device. Microneedling is when you roll a tool like this one over your face, poking teeny tiny holes in your skin's surface. Don't worry. It apparently doesn't hurt. It stimulates collagen production, which fills in fine lines, plumps the skin, and leads to more youthful looking skin. It's apparently really helpful for people with uneven skin and indented acne scars.

The Leuchtturm1917 Is Just a Straigh-Up Great Notebook

via: Amazon

In fact, I have one next to me on my desk as I write this, and I can wholeheartedly recommend it to notebook enthusiasts everywhere! Rather than lined paper, this notebook has rows of dots. This is especially handy if you're into bullet journaling. It also features two bookmarks, page numbers, and an index at the front of the book. Oh, and a little pocket on the inside of the back cover where you can store receipts, ticket stubs, or other documents.

These Silicone Baking Mats Are Totally Genius

via: Amazon

Baking has never been more convenient! These non-stick silicone mats eliminate the need for oil, cooking sprays, or parchment paper. Simply place them on your cookie sheet, scoop cookie dough onto them, and bake in the oven (the mats are oven-safe up to 480ºF). Once the baking is complete, the cookies (or whatever else you’re baking) will slide easily off the mat. The mats can also be washed on the top rack of your dishwasher, making clean-up an absolute breeze.

This Vitamin C Serum Has More Than 11,000 Rave Reviews

via: Amazon

Vitamin C is super important for collagen production. This serum features a blend of vitamin C, botanical hyaluronic acid, and vitamin E. They work together to target signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, and sun spots. It also smells pretty lovely! Simply apply 3–5 drops once daily to your face, followed by a moisturizer.

This Diffuser Has a Lovely Glow!

via: Amazon

This diffuser/humidifier can be programmed to emit one of seven different colors of light, and each color can be adjusted to be brighter or dimmer, depending on what you need. Use it with your favorite essential oil to make the place smell divine! It can be set to either mist continuously for three hours, or to mist intermittently (every 30 seconds) for up to six hours.

This Eyelash Growth Enhancer Can Give Your Eyelashes a Boost!

via: Amazon

Given the choice, most people would opt for longer, fuller eyelashes. Unfortunately, we’re not all born with ’em. Lavish Lash aims to change that. When it’s applied to your eyelashes (or eyebrows!), it gives the hair follicles a boost of biotin, which in turn results in longer, fuller, and thicker lashes. You can experience a drastic improvement to your own lashes in as little as 60 days.

This Drain Snake Makes Quick Work of Clogged Drains

I’m sorry. I know that was pretty gnarly to watch. Still, it’s nice to see that it actually works, right? All you have to do is put the Zip-It down the drain, wiggle it around a bit, and then give it a yank. Oh, and you’ll probably want to prepare yourself for the vile mess you’re about to bring from the depths of the sewers. I can’t promise you that you’ll like what you see, but you will enjoy the results!

Tinkle Eyebrow Razors Keep Your Brows and Face Looking Ship-Shape

via: Amazon

Most of us have fine hairs covering our face — we are mammals, after all. Unfortunately, these tiny hairs are usually too fine to pluck with tweezers. If you're not a fan of the peach fuzz, these tiny razors are a great way to get rid of it. They also exfoliate your skin during use. They can even be used to shape your eyebrows!

This Beard Balm Will Make Your Beard Feel Nice

via: Amazon

It smells really good, too! The Honest Amish Beard Balm is handcrafted in the USA. It softens coarse bears hairs and also brings rogue hairs into position to keep your beard from looking too messy. If you ever get beardruff (that’s dandruff but in your beard), this stuff will put an end to it! Just apply to your beard and leave it in. That’s literally all you have to do!

That Pesky Chin Hair Is No Match for This Hair Remover

via: Amazon

How many times have you been about to walk into your office and noticed you somehow sprouted a 4-foot-long chin hair while driving into work? No one is quite sure how it happens, but luckily, science has the perfect response. It’s this pain-free hair remover! It is about the same size and shape as a tube of lipstick and can easily be tucked in your pocket or purse (or kept in your car) for hair removal emergencies.
