Promising review: "​I LOVE the unique and cute design of this measuring cup because the penguin is my favorite animal! ​​The cup is made of silicone, so it is kind of slippery, but safe and will not break if I drop it.​" —Jimmyzzxhlh

Moodmatcher is a small business that specializes in color-changing lipstick. 

Promising review: "This color is beautiful and shows up differently on everyone. The thing that I like most about this product is that it stays on all day, even after eating several meals. I have to use a microfiber cloth to remove it at night!" —Rasheda

Apply the ink with a stencil and the tattoo will develop over the next day to look like the real deal.

Promising review: "I purchased the kit for me and my GF. This was my first time doing this kind of tattoo making, so I wasn't sure what to expect aside from having a lot of fun. Well, we had way more than fun as we started inking each other. The tattoo-making process is really easy. My tat is now six days old and still looks dark and sharp." —Golan

Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in two sizes and with or without a stencils book).

How many show references can you find in this set? I can't believe they included Kevin's spilled chili. 😭

Promising review: "I'm a vintage Polly Pocket collector as well as a huge pop culture fan, and this is SUCH a fun addition to my collection. It's detailed with tons of fun little Easter eggs and pieces. The packaging is great, and clearly designed to display the set without unboxing it. I kept the packaging but display it on a shelf, and it's cute whether open or closed. It's relatively large compared to the original Bluebird compacts, but it makes up for it with how many rooms and scenes it depicts. I also have the Friends compact, and the two coffee mugs look adorable together (despite the handles being on opposite sides). I love Mattel for making this." —Laura

Promising review: "Love this! This does exactly what it’s supposed to! My daughters fave lit up seeing her hard-boiled eggs look like bunnies. So easy and a breeze to clean." —Karen

Get a set of two from Amazon for $6.99. 

Promising review: "The flavor is great and tastes better than the cereal. I sprinkle it in coffee with sweet cream, and it makes a very good morning cup of coffee. I love it.❣️Keep it as a normal and necessary household seasoning, y’all. All the best! 💋" —JessiSarai7186

Get it from Amazon for $3.99+ (available in two sizes). 

The kit comes with two landscapes and one portrait of Bob.

Promising review: "I have to admit I was skeptical because of the price and size. However, I got these for my husband for his birthday (he loves Bob Ross) and What a find!! We had so much fun mixing colors and painting. Would definitely recommend. The fact that they are small makes them even more special. I wish there were more to paint!" —slb m

Chunks is an Asian woman–owned small business based in Seattle that makes cute hair accessories. 

Promising review: "So cute to put over a bun. Thinking about buying more for myself and as gifts!" —Bryanne

Get it from Chunks for $14 (originally $35; available in two sizes).

The fork has three prongs to make it easy to spear olives and pickles.

Promising review: "This is one of my favorite kitchen gizmos, and it doesn't take up room in the drawer! I eat lots of olives, and this keeps me from having to wash or get a clean fork when I'm in the middle of making a salad or just want a snack, and it makes spearing the olives easier, too. It comes with two sizes to fit any jar (even though if you need, this I feel like you probably get the big jars, right?). They are stretchy and easy to get on and off. I usually just rinse it between uses and then wash the whole set up when I open a new jar (which is about weekly)." —Emily

Promising review: "These are the best children’s bandages. I love the color-changing design — it makes these fun and less daunting for a child to wear. I actually have to hide these so my child does not put these on for fun/fashion statement, haha. Very comfortable and flexible material that stays on quite well/but not too much so that it is hard to take off." —Mama N 

It can measure up to 3 feet, so it's better for measuring smaller things.

Promising review: "I thrift a lot and often wish I had a measuring tape to compare picture frame sizes, furniture, etc. This has come in handy so many times. It can attach to your keychain/bag, or you can keep it in your car for such an occasion." —KB

Promising review: "While they don’t reduce my dryness, I have never slept better wearing these before bed. The heat is so nice. The fit is perfect. Light on my face, and after about 30 seconds, I don’t even feel it around my ears. I’m so glad I discovered these. Will be buying again!" —Tiffany Campbell

Get a set of ten from Amazon for $8.99. 

Londontown is a small business that specializes in nail care products. 

Promising review: "This nail veil is so pretty and perfect for a simple, bare nail look! It applies very smoothly, and one to two coats work well. With a top coat, it lasts almost perfectly for about five days, but chips are not very noticeable, so you can easily wear it for longer! I also feel confident in this brand's use of healthier, higher-quality ingredients, which makes it well worth the extra cost. My nails aren't left damaged by this product, and it has become my go-to when I don't have the time for a full-color look but still want my nails to look polished and pretty!" —Sofia K 

Get it from Amazon for $19.60+ (available in nine shades). 

If you want something less cutthroat, check out Uno Flip, which has a special Flip card that leads to all the cards being flipped over to reveal new numbers and colors.

Promising review: "For highly competitive players! If you have players who can’t handle regular Uno without their feelings being hurt, they will not enjoy this version. We, however, have some very competitive card players in our family and had a blast playing this game. No Mercy means just that! Enjoy!" —Mom Reviews

Promising review: "As always, ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. I can't stop myself from eating them. The only way to prevent it is by having my friend hold onto the bag and ration them out to me. To me, they taste like bouncy, silky marshmallows with that gorgeous floral-tea taste on the end. Absolutely sinful. Not an overwhelming sweetness, either. Just the perfect amount to let you know it's a sweet treat, not just smacking you in the face with sugar. These are a STAPLE in my household and will be for as long as they're available for me to purchase; I don't give a damn how expensive it is. It is worth EVERY PENNY." —Samantha JR

It's made with shea butter, olive oil, and coconut oil. Just grab a pinch and rub it over wet skin. Paper Plane sells cute gag gifts from the UK. 

Promising review: "This is such a fun idea! It smells as good as it looks, plus I love that you can play with it and not get in trouble for playing with your food. ;) Definitely recommend!" —Amaya

Get it from Paper Plane on Etsy for $14.16.

Promising review: "I absolutely adore these!!! They are so cute and definitely do the job! They keep the surface free from water rings and make me giggle!" —johnny williams

Get a set of six from Amazon for $5.99 (also available in larger sets). 

Promising review: "They're ridiculously good. They have a lovely, perfectly sweet caramelized crust. With added Himalayan salt. Crackery, buttery crunch. I can definitely see them being incredible with a pungent cheese spread and hot honey or something similar. Perfect for a unique addition to a charcuterie board. They came packaged really well. Not one was broken. I will absolutely be purchasing more, but the 30 count. The 10 count won't last me long." —SaraK

Get them from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two styles and two pack sizes). 

Promising review: "The look and feel of this scarf are very nice. It looks expensive, but was so affordable. I receive so many compliments on it, and no one could believe what little I paid. I’m going to be ordering a few more for friends." —Nikki

Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in 15 patterns).

Notes include: marshmallow, pink pepper, bergamot, rose, vanilla, and orange blossom.

Promising review: "I bought this parody of Killian's Love, Don’t Be Shy, and it smells amazing. For spending less than $50 on what would normally be an almost $400 bottle of perfume, you just can’t beat it. I thought, based on the price, it was a risk and there might be a slight chemical smell, but there’s not; it’s absolutely amazing, lasts for several hours, and the bottle is huge. At first, it smells like a strong, sweet warm musk, but as it wears off, it just smells sweeter and sweeter. It’s absolutely the best, and I will be buying again." —Slates

Good Molecules is a small business that specializes in affordable skincare products. 

Promising review: "This stuff is amazing!! I put it on every night and morning. I’ve been using a little over a month and you can already tell a difference. My dark circles are hereditary, so I truly thought nothing would work. However this stuff IS GREAT!" —Shay M. 

Promising review: "I have a pair of the Aerie crossover flare leggings, and those are worn out, so I decided to purchase another pair because I can’t live without my flares! Y'all, these leggings are the truth!! I have never seen such a great [alternative] for the Aerie ones. They feel like butter soft on your skin and have the same durability and thickness, even the same stitching!! Save your money and get these!!!" —Jasmine

Get them from Amazon for $12.49+ (available in women's sizes XS–XXL, four inseams, and in 32 colors).

Promising review: "I wasn't seeing many pictures of small-chested ladies, so I was a little worried about how this would fit. Purchased X-Small, and it fits perfectly! The straps stay in place, don't look weird with the bra cups, and it is form-fitting in the back. I hate tank tops that have a big gap in the back. This one does not. It goes down to about my belly button. I wanted something similar to the Lululemon Align, but this is well worth it instead! It is not tight at all, does not dig in, and is super breathable. I am thrilled with this purchase!" —olivia schilling

Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (available in sizes XS–3XL and 29 colors). 

The blue patches are illuminating eye masks (for dull under eyes). The gold patches are energizing eye masks (for tired under-eyes). The pink patches are moisturizing eye masks (for dry under-eyes).

Promising review: "I have tried many eye masks through the years and was pleasantly surprised by this product. It's worth the hype. I'm a skincare lover and have spent tens of thousands on skin products, including LED red light masks, infrared saunas, and every new facial device that has come along, including high-end skincare and everything in between. I have eye bags and hollows, and these do a phenomenal job at plumping and hydrating the under-eye area. Great quality and quantity for the price. I will be repurchasing." —Nvohpa88

Get six pairs from Amazon for $9.95+ (also available in packs of 24, 48, and 72 and in three styles).

Spiceology is a small business that sells creative spices and blends.

Promising review: "My stepdaughter uses this on EVERYTHING! She loves this stuff. She uses it on fries, chicken, burgers, steak, pork, vegetables, and just about everything else. It's one of the few things we keep right on the table. I may have to put it into a shaker! She can’t get enough — I have bought it several times now!" —Chandra

Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in two sizes).

Promising review: "I bought this last month, and I love it! I've never been a fan of the key hanger by the front door (it never felt safe to me), but I always end up turning my apartment upside down, looking for my keys. This is a cute and fun place to remember to grab my keys when I am heading out, and it's endearing to return them to the goose when I come home." —JAK

Get it from Amazon for $22.98 (available in two colors). 

Promising review: "I purchased this soap on what seemed like an endless exploration to find a soap that works for my dry skin. One that smells decent and lasts a long time while actually getting us clean. THIS SOAP IS THE ONE. It feels amazing, and after a shower, I no longer feel itchy or uncomfortable. My wife is an automotive mechanic and was struggling to find a soap that truly deep cleaned stains from oil, grease, fuel, dirt, and grime. Let me just say the day she used it, what we thought were permanent black stains on her hands and nails just disappeared. She was so happy. This soap also lasts quite a while — it's not like those other natural soaps that disappear in a week. It suds up so well and smells amazing. This is an amazing soap, and you should definitely try it." —cameron
