1. A set of bed bandsso you can cinch those bed corners tight and keep your sheets and mattress pad from sliding right off the bed, especially if you (or your bedmate) tend to toss and turn at night.
Bed Band is a US-based small business that specializes in bed bands for mattresses of various sizes.
Promising review: "I have a pillow-top and pillow-bottom queen-sized bed that is a little too small for king sheets, and with queen sheets I have battled to keep the sheets from popping off. I have tried everything! I was about to try to customize some king sheets because it was so frustrating. Then I saw this product advertised on Facebook in one of those posts about the amazing products that people love. So I figured it was worth a try. It works. I was shocked. My sheets have not popped off once. I ordered this in February, and it is May now — and they have not popped off once! They used to pop off EVERY...SINGLE...NIGHT. To say this is life changing is not an exaggeration. Such a relief to be able to sleep through the night without ending up in rumpled sheets." —TinkerbellAPixie

2. A far-reaching dryer vent lint brush capable of getting deeeep in there to scoop out all that gross trapped lint clogging your vents.
Amazon, amazon.com
Promising review: "Why didn’t I know about this sooner?! A must-have for anyone annoyed at the amount of dryer lint left behind when you pull out the lint catcher. Now I can get it all. Note: you’ll probably need to vacuum more after cleaning it out." —Interpreter
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $7.99 (also available in packs of one and three).
3. A very handy bottle of Wine Away red wine stain remover so you don't have to panic the next time you or a guest knocks a glass of red wine over! Just spray this onto the affected clothing or carpet, let it sit for five minutes, then blot the area until the stain disappears (or, for clothing, toss it into the washer).
Promising review: "When you have anything white in your house and you have a love for red wine THIS PRODUCT IS A MUST!!! We had a dinner party of about 15 people in our house so I bought 5 bottles just in case. We didn't need the 5 bottles, but someone did spill red wine on our brand new white couch. I was so mad, but I used this stuff and it was GONE. Not just took most of the red wine out — the red wine was GONE! No trace of it at all! I will buy more!" —Alial
Get it from Amazon for $11.46.
4. AChomChom pet hair rollerif pet hair has taken over your entire home and no matter how hard you try to clean it, there's always a little bit left over. The ChomChom roller doesn't mess with sticky tapes or paper; instead, you get a reusable brush that grabs up every bit of hair and lint as you clean — just empty it out after, and you're good to go again!
Jenae Sitzes / BuzzFeed
See it in action on TikTok!
The tens of thousands of 5-star Amazon reviews are reason enough to add the ChomChom to your cart immediately — but let me add my own personal review to the stack. I've been using the ChomChom for quite a while now, and I took the photos above to show just how quick, easy, and effective this roller is. It took 10 seconds to rid my velvet couch ottoman (yes, velvet...a terrible cat owner choice, I know) of the hair my two gray kitties are constantly leaving everywhere. It takes a bit of practice to get the hang of using this roller — at first, I thought you only brushed down in one direction, and was confused why it wasn't picking up hair. It's important to do a push-and-pull brushing in *both* directions so it actually pulls the hair inside, which does require you to apply a bit of pressure. Afterward, you'll just dump out the hair that's been trapped inside. The ChomChom is best for large flat surfaces like couches and beds.
Get it from Amazon for $24.99(available in four designs).
5. An eco-friendlyoven scrub, because that baked-on grease and food from years ago is no match for this all-natural paste. It's handmade with a blend of plant- and mineral-derived ingredients, like eucalyptus, lemon, and peppermint essential oils; pumice stone; and baking soda.
Everneat / Etsy, Everneat / Etsy
Everneat is a Fairfield, Connecticut-based Etsy shop filled with natural cleaning products and tools.
Promising review: "LOVE IT! Oven door is a constant struggle. I hate chemical cleaners, so I thought I would try this. I bought the Lift scent and the unscented. The Lift smells fantastic, natural, not chemically, and the Clear truly is unscented. Works beautifully! I think the combo of grit in the scrub plus the metal scrubbie are magic together. I wore nitrile gloves and the scrubbie did end up poking a hole in them, so keep that in mind if you just got a mani or don’t want rough nails — use thick gloves. It does require elbow grease, because, hello, baked on bits of grease! But was very simple to use. Just smeared it on, added a little H2O to the scrubbie and went to town. Very impressed! I used not even 5% of one jar (for just the very dirty door) so it seems like it will last a while. Way better than BKF and wipes off easily. LOVE IT!!" —aniebauer
Get it from Everneat on Etsyfor $20 or Amazon for $25.99 (includes free shipping at Amazon; available in three scents and in a glass or plastic jar; refills also available).
6. A set of NoNo Brackets that make mounting curtains a breeze — just attach these to the top of your existing blinds, and you won't have to drill any holes.
Promising review: "This bracket is awesome and was extremely easy to install. We were able to hang curtains over our vertical blinds in just a few minutes and didn't even need any tools. Great product!!!" —Amazon Customer
Get a set of two from Amazon for $11.95 (see more colors on their store page!).
7. Aclear toy blocker to stop all your pet's toys and balls from *immediately* ending up underneath the couch and other furniture, putting an end to one of the most annoying pet owner chores: going around and "rescuing" their toys for them. And because it's made of durable plastic, it's not something they'll be able to rip up and destroy either!
It can also help discourage them from hiding under furniture!
Promising reviews: "WISH I WOULD HAVE FOUND THIS YEARS AGO FOR MY DOGS! I recently bought it because my 11-month-old is constantly throwing stuff and pushing things under the couch. I was able to install this while the baby was climbing all over me, and I haven't had any problems with the adhesive. Also keeps my two small dogs from hiding their bones and toys under the couch! Perfectly invisible. Literally life-changing! I can finally throw away self-made blockers, which were pool noodles that always moved." —Crystal K
"A must-have for ALL pet owners. This contraption is genius and will save cat (and dog) owners huge amounts of time and frustration retrieving toys. We used this beneath our oven and it works PERFECTLY. Cat can't destroy it (the way she shredded the foam insulation we had stuffed under there before), and we no longer have to get the yardstick out when literally all of her toys are 'gone.'Yes, this is a challenge to install, but 100% worth it. I'd buy it again in a heartbeat." —Allison Goldstein
Get it from Amazon for $11.98+ (available in two heights and four pack sizes).
8. An easily installed TV wall mount if the whole concept of studs and anchors is something you can't quite wrap your head around — with just some small nails and about 10 minutes, you'll have your mount ready to go, capable of holding TVs up to 80 inches!
Amazon
My bf and I have used a similar kit to wall mount our TV in the past and trust me, you'll be amazed at just how easy it is. If your TV is currently sitting on top of an entertainment center, mounting it frees up so much space on top for other stuff (game consoles, decor, etc.); plus, it just looks so much nicer and less cluttered when a TV is mounted IMO!
Promising review: "This product is extremely easy to install yourself on almost any type of wall because it distributes the weight so well. It works on drywall or plaster. I double checked the position by sliding the provided level across the wall and started by putting one nail in the center and then carefully at one end using the level. Once I was sure it was level, I carefully put in a half dozen more. You don’t need to use all of the nails provided! After I hung the TV I realized that one side seemed a little higher than the other and I took the TV off and realized I just needed to make sure the screws on the back of the TV were positioned properly." —Venona
Get it from Amazon for $38.99 (available for TVs 32"–80").
9. A bottle of Mavala Stop nail biting deterrent — it'll taste nasty (but it's totally harmless) so every time you put your fingers to your mouth, you'll want to take them away immediately.
Promising review: "It's a miracle! I am 45-years-old and have tried every product over the years — my mom used to put everything imaginable on my fingernails to keep them out of my mouth, my grandma tried to pay me to grow my fingernails out, but still, here I was at 45 with horrible nails. This has been a miracle. I can't describe the taste but will just say that it makes me not want my hands anywhere near my face. Yes, it is difficult to eat finger food with this on — I went to Florida recently and had to have my husband peel my shrimp for me. :-) But, it is a small price to pay to break this habit. Photos are before and two weeks after using this product. I know they aren't long and beautiful yet but they are beautiful to me :-) and the longest they have ever been in my life!" —Laurie S.
Get it from Amazon for $19.
10. A set of washer and dryer bedsheet detanglers because you're tired of pulling your bedding out of the machine, only to find that part of it is balled up, wet, dirty, and wrinkly. This prevents your sheets from tangling and twisting during wash/dry cycles so they come out clean and dry the first time.
Amazon
Wad-Freeis a woman-owned small biz that was launched during the pandemic. Cyndi Bray, the founder, learned CAD (computer-aided design) to create the pads. You might remember Wad-Free fromShark Tank!
Promising review: "Wow!!! You wonder if things like this really work; well, I can absolutely confirm it does! First, I was impressed that the package came with two of the devices — I was only expecting one — so there was one for the fitted sheet and the flat sheet. I tried it out and my sheets not only did NOT wad up; they came out of the dryer feeling fresher, feeling more dry, and unwrinkled! I will be buying a set of these for each of my immediate family members and close friends! What a great gift!!!" —katy

11. A versatile Katzco Furniture Repair Kit to address that scratched-up door your pet has unleashed its claws on or that chair that's been bumped into one too many times. The kit includes six wood markers and six wax sticks so you can find the closest color match to the type of wood you have.
amazon.com, Amazon
Promising review: "Despite our consistent efforts, it took almost a year to teach our new dog to not jump up on the back door. And as you can see in the first picture, he managed to do a lot of scratching. That's why I bought this marker kit, to repair those scratches. I used 'oak,' a lighter color, on the scratches. I did have to go over them again to completely cover them. That's what you see in the second picture, and it took me about 10 minutes total. I bought the kit with the wax crayons as I hoped to fill in the scratches too, I read in another review that it's possible but takes a lot of work. Unless I'm looking for the defects, I no longer notice the scratches (and mind you, these are at eye level) so this did the job I wanted." —P. Ratliff
Get the set from Amazon for $8.99.
12. A handy heat-resistant chopper that'll make quickly breaking up the meat for your spaghetti a quick and easy task so it cooks evenly.
It's non-stick and dishwasher-safe.
Promising review: "I've been eyeing this same tool from Pampered Chef but it's so pricey I didn't want to take the plunge. When I found this one on Amazon and saw how much more reasonably priced it was, I decided to go for it. I've used it a few times since purchasing and it is awesome! Works just as well as I envisioned the pricier version to work and I love that it didn't cost an arm and a leg. I am happy that this comes in red as it matches the other kitchen tools and theme of my kitchen! Thanks for making cooking with ground meat so much simpler." —Genetics
Get it from Amazon for $8.95+ (available in three colors).
13. A pack of bra strap clips if your bra straps frequently like to slip and slide right down your shoulders. These hold everything in place to put an end to that nagging issue — a major plus for all those undershirt tank tops.
amazon.com, Amazon
Promising review: "Since I started using these clips, I haven't had to pull up my straps a single time! I used to have to pull them back up a dozen times a day. No more. Now I can put on my bra and then just forget that it is there. I don't notice any change in the fit of my bra. I wear a large cup size, and the last thing I wanted was to add to that. However, with the straps fully extended on my bra, I find the fit to be essentially the same as before. The only difference is that the straps stay in place. If you've ever struggled to keep your straps up, you owe it to yourself to try this product." —K. Howe
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $4.99+ (available in 10 color combos).
14. A terracotta bear that'll become your BFF if you're a baker — essentially, it maintains the proper moisture level to keep your brown sugar from turning into a hard and unusable brick over time, *and* it can soften sugar that's already gone hard.
Amazon
It'll maintain moisture in your brown sugar for three to six months!
Promising review: "After multiple containers and continuously having to throw my brown sugar away due to giant hard lumps, I began to wonder why our brown sugar never lumped as a child. That's when I remembered a weird brown bear in our sugar, after a quick Google search I found this! I soaked it in water for 30 minutes and then added to my lumpy brown sugar. Two days later there is not a single lump in my sugar! Yay! Note: it did turn any sugar that touched the bear a white color, but it tastes the same, still! :)" —Sneezeloaf
Get it from Amazon for $5.26.
15. BluApple freshness saver balls you can toss into your crisper drawers, fruit bowl, or anywhere else you store produce — each "apple" has a packet in it that absorbs ethylene gas to slow down ripening time drastically. And each packet lasts three months!
Amazon, amazon.com
Promising review: "In my drunken stupor, I purchased these thinking were ben wa balls. Boy was I wrong. But I'm so happy with my purchase because these keep my produce fresher for much longer than normal. Nothing is worse than buying red bell peppers at the store and having them start wilting after four days. These should be in everyone's fridges!" —The Waites
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $15.99.
16. A very handy universal waterproof cellphone pouch so your next watery adventure doesn't mean the end for your iPhone, Galaxy, Pixel, or whatever phone you have. Now you can take pictures while you're swimming, kayaking, or tubing without worrying about your phone getting splashed or dropping into the water (because you can wear this around your neck too!).
Promising review: "I lost my phone in the ocean over a month ago. A big wave knocked it from my grip and I thought it was lost forever. A diver found it in perfect condition, in 8 feet of water and a foot under the sand. Once it charged up, it was like nothing happened. If that doesn't convince you to buy this, I don't know what will! Highly recommend 👌" —Rachael
Get it from Amazon for $6.49+ (available in 14 colors).
17. A nylon (so it's nonstick-safe) colander strainer that lets you scoop, drain, and serve food straight from the pot without having to pick up a hot, heavy pan. It's designed with discreet hooks so it can rest stably on top of the pot while draining.
Amazon
It's also dishwasher-safe, heat-resistant up to 392 degrees Fahrenheit and works with fried foods.
Promising review: "I love this thing! It is quite sturdy and has no issues holding lots of ravioli, tortellini, or any other shaped pasta. One note, it does not do well with long spaghetti. It is also great for grabbing veggies out when I blanch them in water or chicken breasts I have poached. I was injured in an automobile accident and my hands are not in great condition. This has made having to use tongs for some things no longer necessary. It has also — totally — made lifting heavy pots full of liquid, unnecessary. Cooking is therapy for me and to find any tools which make it easier for me, is fantastic! I highly recommend this scoop to anyone needing a little help in the kitchen, or who just wants to not have to pull out strainers all of the time." —Kayce Cawthon McCarty
Get it from Amazon for $7.99.
18. A pair of heel stoppers so you can finally wear that new pair of heels without worrying about them sinking into grass or gravel. A true lifesaver for all those outdoor weddings.
Amazon
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly vouches for these! "Let me tell you, fine folks, these lil' pieces of plastic are SO STURDY.The day of the ceremony they made the heels much easier to walk in and prevented me from aerating the lawn.I didn't trip as the first bridesmaid to parade across a country-club lawn in front of approximately 150 guests, and the last bridesmaid to walk out after the nuptials.Out of all the dough I spent on my bridesmaid ensemble, these were the biggest bang for my buck— OK, maybe besides the dress!" See her full heel stoppers review for more deets.
Promising review: "I, unfortunately, forgot to put these on my shoes for the outdoor ceremony and pictures. My heels sank into the grass and the heels also kept getting caught on my dress which was an intricate lace. Once I was back to the bridal suite, before heading back to the reception, I put these on and they worked fabulously. Not only did they prevent my heels from sinking into the ground, but they also protected my gown from the heels catching when I walked, which had been a huge unanticipated problem. They are slightly visible, but the delicate petal shape makes them pretty and unobtrusive. I absolutely recommend these and won't hesitate to use them in the future." —npview

Amazon
Promising review: "I wouldn't consider myself a 'wine connoisseur' by any means, but I typically have a bottle or so, float through my house each week. This wine corker takes the hassle out of pulling the original cork out, it is easy to clean, makes the wine taste better, and hello it's five bucks! It would make a GREAT cheap gift for a wine drinker. At the moment, I only have the one, but I'm planning to grab a few more to keep on-hand. :)" —jason lebeda

When you use this instead of a shredder, it means you can still recycle your paper.
Promising review: "I liked this product so much I bought another one as a gift. It works as promised, and you really cannot read what is underneath the stamp. A black permanent marker wasn't working very well and sometimes shredding takes too long. This is a great product." —Figs5

amazon.com, Amazon
Promising review: "The mesh of the tape is slightly smaller than the mesh of my windows, so it doesn't blend in. But it's better than a hole and cheaper than replacing the screen and it still lets air through, so I am very happy." —Alara

26. A jar of clear Museum Gel, a reusable nontoxic gel that'll secure your belongings so they don't get knocked over (by a mischievous cat, a clumsy family member, or even an earthquake). It won't stain or leave marks on your furniture either.
Promising review: "A little goes a long way and it works perfectly! We needed this for southern California's earthquake-prone geography and the glass art on glass shelves. We were able to affix the gel easily and everything stays put now. You can barely see the gel through the glass shelf. The amount you need is very small so I nearly have a full container left and I was able to attach all the items shown in this picture. I could have done 10–15 sets of shelves just like this." —Dennis & Karen Gunther

Promising review: "I love these!!! The part that grips on to your vent, is actually a very tough cushion that keep the weight of the Saucemote with ketchup container, from sliding down. I usually now keep one in my Jeep and a second in my purse for use when I’m in someone else’s car!" —Gillian

28. A no-buckle stretch belt for when you need all the effectiveness of a good belt, minus the annoying bulky clasp at your front.
Amazon
Promising review: "I have been looking for something like this for years! When I buy jeans I typically have to have them altered just a little. If I find a pair that fits my hips there’s always a big gap and it’s too big for my waist. Regular belts are very uncomfortable to me, they make this big pooch out to the front, and the buckle often makes holes in my shirts. This is perfect! It keeps my pants up making the fit perfect without adding more bulk to the front. I call this 'my girl suspenders!' I am definitely ordering another one and I recommend!" —Dina

BuzzFeed Shopping editorChelsea Stuart has used this cutlery organizer to make her kitchen feel more organized: "It has freed up SO much space in our cutlery drawer that we can now store teas, small Tupperware, etc. vs. before it was just a mess of utensils."
Promising review: "I had never seen this before I bought it, and holy crap it changed my life. So. Much. Room. There is so much room left in my drawer now that I moved stuff from another drawer and I have an entirely empty drawer in my kitchen now. Now only HALF the drawer is silverware and the other half is spatulas and cooking utensils. It is great. It also seems very sturdy. Highly recommend." —van31050

Promising review: "I have no idea why these are not sold everywhere. PERFECT for my room! I ended up getting this due to my king-size bed being against a wall with only one outlet. I needed a way to connect my two lamps on my nightstand and this is absolutely, without a doubt, the very best solution to connecting my lamps and also not having all my outlets taken up.

32. A pack of Bottle Bright because your water bottle is probably disgusting and long-overdue for a wash (it happens to all of us). Drop one of these tablets into your bottle with some warm water, watch it fizz up while it deep cleans, then empty and give your bottle a quick rinse. No more funky smells or weird residue!
Promising review: "Finished using it five minutes ago and it’s the best! My husband uses a Stanley thermos daily to take coffee to work. He tries to remember to rinse it out every day, but that doesn’t always happen. I got the package today, filled the thermos with water, dropped in a tablet, and let it sit. I promptly forgot about it for a few hours. Initially, I was disappointed when I dumped the water, as it was barely tinged brown. Then I put fresh water in, covered the top, shook it, and OMG. The crap that came out was disgusting, yet fascinating. I looked in the thermos and saw almost nothing but sparkly silver! There was a little crud left in the top third of the thermos, but it’s a really tall one, so I wasn’t surprised. Got the bottle brush, swished twice, and bam! All clean! No fumes, no smell, no nothing, just clean. I used to struggle cleaning it with baking soda, vinegar, the brush, soap, and elbow grease. Screw that. I will forever use only these tablets! Here’s to better tasting (and way less gross) coffee!" —BranchingOut

33. A pair of no-tie elastic laces capable of securing your sneakers at just the right tightness without having to fiddle with laces, with enough stretch to pull them on and off with ease.
Amazon
Promising review: "We absolutely love these! I purchased these for my 14-year-old son because I was tired of seeing his shoes untied and dragging laces. They are perfect. They are elastic but are not flimsy. They keep a firm hold while easily stretching to get the shoe on. These are so durable that my son even wears them for PE with no flopping issues; they keep his shoes firmly fitted. Fourteen-year-old boys tend to be rough on their shoes and these laces have held up perfectly. You can't even tell they are elastic, they look like regular shoelaces. I work at a chocolate factory and learned about these from the owner and his son who both wear them day in, day out at the factory. They were impressed so I had to give them a try for my son. I would definitely buy these again." —Maria Gutierrez

34. A geniustreat-dispensing licky mat to distract pups when they're anxious, like when you need to give them a bath!
Promising review: "My 30-pound Aussie puppy loves to play rough and get muddy. Bathing her in the bathtub is impossible. Showering with her was better, but not fun for either of us, before the Aquapaw mat. Boo loves peanut butter, so we smeared some on the mat, then stuck it to the wall of the shower door. She was focused on the peanut butter and I was able to bathe her fairly quickly. It was, by far, the easiest time we had bathing her. The mat stuck perfectly to the shower door. The nubs have a nice depth and hold a lot of smear (maybe too much). There was almost nothing left tocleanon the mat, but itcleanedeasily. I highly recommend this product!" —zoso babe

Promising review: "These are a life-saver when wearing masks. My glasses never had a problem staying on my face before, but now that I have to wear a mask my glasses literally fell off my face regardless of the fact I'm sweating like a damn pig. Now that I have them on my glasses, I notice that I used to push them up constantly and since I've been wearing glasses for over half my life, I've never noticed how much I did that. Now with these rubber things I never need to touch my face." —Hannah and Eric

36. A pack of light-dimming stickers designed to cover up those gosh darn blinking lights keeping you up in the middle of the night.
Promising review: "This is the best thing you never knew you needed. I own a digital clock with the numbers displayed in red LED light, and every night I've blocked the light with a cover so it doesn't shine in my eyes as I sleep. Silly I know, but I like my room pitch black and cave-like. On a whim, I bought this product. OH MY GOD! Game-changer!! For the first night EVER I didn't have to cover the clock display before I went to bed!! I had no idea how big a difference this little dimmer could make, but I'm more than pleased with the result. I can still see the time display just fine, but now my room is a happy cave! Some commenters argue you could get the same effect using electrical tape, regular tape covered in sharpie, etc, but true to the name of these products if you're looking for something to DIM, then this is for you. Also, the product is easy to remove and doesn't leave a sticky residue at all, which can't be said for most tapes. I did notice a slight lag in response when I covered my TV LED sensor, so if you're trying to block something that actually senses inputs I would maybe not suggest this. Other than that, excellent product!" —Amazon Customer

37. An ultra-thin socket cover with an attached power strip — the cover lays flat so you can actually push your furniture up against the wall. It also looks *much* cleaner and is easier to hide while still giving you access to multiple outlets for your devices!

Promising reviews:"I use these all over my house and it makes every room look incredibly neat and organized." —Emma Keer
"I didn't realize how much I wanted these until I bought them and placed them behind a shelving unit. They occupy very little depth, and I could essentially push the shelving unit flush up against the wall (almost). Felt so much better than seeing it jutting out a couple of inches. Highly recommend!" —Sjn007

38. A very handy bottle of drywall repair putty so you can fix all those failed attempts to hang things, leaving your landlord none the wiser (and your security deposit safe).
Amazon
Promising review: "Does exactly what it says. Rather than getting spackel, waiting for it to dry, sanding it down, and tweaking as needed — this cuts the time/effort down! Just rub over the place in need of patching and wipe off the excess. The hardest part is not accidentally getting the product on parts of the wall that don’t need it, but that’s easy to clean up, so it’s not a problem. I used this to patch holes in the wall from a former Wi-Fi router and modem, other than the color difference from the patch to the paint, you’d never know it was patched. Great price, easy to use." —Amanda
Get it from Amazon for $14.89 (also available in a two-pack).
39. A sturdy handheld sharpener to get those dull kitchen scissors back in tip-top shape, because they could use a little love too! Of course, you can use this on your knives and other blades as well.
Amazon
Promising review: "I've tried lots of other means to sharpen knives over the decades, none came out well. And taking my knives to someone else to sharpen is a Pain In The Ass. A friend turned me on to the Smith's sharpener and showed me how easily it did the job: just a few passes. Inexpensive, and appears it will last the rest of my life! Only took a minute or so to sharpen a knife (that I use constantly). Easy. NOT so easy to hold while sharpening, but once I got the hang of it, not too bad. No more guessing the angle, locating, and dragging my knives my knives to a sharpening shop." —Ric Lobosco

40. A pack of fluorescent highlighters with a clear tip that'll let you see when you're coming to the end of a sentence or phrase so you don't overshoot.
Amazon
Promising review: "I'm a highlighter fan and I love these. The colors are pigmented enough to draw attention to it but not so much so that I can't read the font that I highlighted. It rarely, if ever, bleeds through paper. I usually avoid green and orange because they tend to be too pigmented and dark but the ones in this bunch are perfect. It also does not smudge and I'm very prone to that since I'm left-handed. I like the clear view part since it helps me see when I should stop highlighting, very precise." —Steph
Get it from Amazon for $5.50(available in multipacks).
41. A pack of pre-moistened Andrea Eye Q's Oil-Free Make-Up Correctors for when your eyeliner goes a little too sideways — this'll let you correct tiny beauty mistakes without messing up the rest of your look.
Amazon
Promising review: "I suck at doing my eyeliner and no amount of YouTube makeup tutorials can help me. But now that I have these handy little erasers, I don’t look like a failed smokey eye every day. You might be thinking, why not just use a makeup wipe instead? Or why not just soak and tip in remover? Well, because that doesn’t work as well. Trust me, I tried that too. These are great because they have a very fine pointed tip so the accuracy is great. Plus they are sturdy. These are awesome." —Faith Foster
