Promising review: "I'll do you all the courtesy of NOT adding a photo or video (You're welcome). This works. Whoever invented the toilet had their heart in the right place, but not their knees. This device mimics proper positioning, and you should get one. That is all. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk." —P.W.

Promising review: "So glad I bought these. Flying usually makes me terribly nauseous. These helped so much! You need to find the right pressure point, and they are really tight. Other than that, 5 stars." —T. Schneider

Get a set of two from Amazon for $7.95+ (available in six colors and packs of one or two).

Promising review: "I was extremely skeptical about this product actually working at first. I saw this on TikTok and started reading the comments, which were all positive reviews, so I decided to try. Let me just say I no longer have to awkwardly run to the bathroom after my fiancé and I do the dirty. This product works!" —brittany simmons

Sage Nation is a small business specializing in quirky organizational pouches for travel and home use. 

Promising reviews: "Great size and it’s so good to throw in a bag and not have to search for snacks!!!" —shauna pardue

"Lettering is spot on. Love the colors, and the clear bag makes it easy for kids to see what is available. Quality materials and construction." —Lisa Stanko 

Promising review: "First off, if you have extremely oily skin, this. is. it. I was so tired of getting blotting powder/wipes. It felt wasteful and always left residue on my face. I saw this on TikTok and NEEDED it. It was backordered but then I got an email saying it was in stock and I was SO excited. Not only is it affordable, but it's washable, which helps you save money and be less wasteful." —Kelsey B.

Promising review: "This product is gentle on the skin, but strong enough to combat any buttock issues caused by stress, environmental issues, or whatever. Living in the Deep South, we sometimes have a condition called 'swamp butt.' Little red bumps like a rash or breakout can form in sensitive areas. Using this product once a day after showering...I've had ZERO bumps in over three months. It works. Doesn't smell the greatest, but it's tolerable, for sure. Great product." —Billie B 

They're great to keep in your gym bag for a post-workout pick-me-up if you don't have time to shower.

Promising review: "These are excellent for travel and camping. I appreciate that they have no odor and are gentle enough for my sensitive skin." —Cherise

Get a pack of 50 (five packs with 10 wipes each) from Amazon for $24.99.

Promising review: "I have always suffered from bad odor on my underarms since I have very delicate skin, so I can't use strongly scented deodorants. I'm always trying out cream deodorant or gels, but it either irritates my skin, or it doesn't stop my bad odor. THIS IS THE BEST INVENTION EVER. I LOVE IT! I can't believe that something finally works! My armpits don't smell bad. I can finally move my arms freely. The scent is wonderful; I love the smell, and it's not harsh on my skin. Even after a long day, my underarms are still smelling like coconut." —Vicky Reyes

Get a pack of 30 from Amazon for $8.99 (available in packs of two, four and eight).

Promising review: "I love this! The quality is very nice, and it fits great. Wore it last week in the rain with a coat I love that doesn't have a hood, and it was perfect. It slips right under your jacket so all you see is the hood, so it pretty much blends in with your jacket. Such a great idea! Wish there were more colors and patterns, I'd order more." —Jill Hammel

Get it from Amazon for $29 (available in two sizes).

Its portable size also makes it great to bring to the office, on a plane, or anywhere else you might be sitting for long periods of time. Some reviewers note that if you identify as plus size, this might not feel as comfortable. So, here's a larger alternative, too!

Promising review: "I got this as we frequently drive long distances in a straight shot (made the 14-hour trip home from Canada last night, and the trip up there five days prior). I found this to be amazing for my needs (chronic back, hip, and tailbone issues). I am a small person and thought the size was good. Someone much larger may feel it’s too small or doesn’t provide the support they might need. I do have to constantly adjust, but I have to do that in ANY seat. Those are my issues. But I cannot IMAGINE making that trip WITHOUT it! It’s especially nice on bumpy or uneven terrain. It is memory foam, so if it is colder, it will be super firm at first. It does warm up and soften up after a few minutes. I would buy it again with ZERO hesitation!" —Debbie C.

Get it from Amazon for $47.99+ (available in seven colors).

Promising review: "This is awesome! I bought it to take on an overseas trip to Greece. We — meaning me — unwisely booked flights that took 30 hours to get to Athens, Greece. That being said, this was a lifesaver. It was comfortable, and I loved being able to configure it the way I wanted for sleeping in the plane seats, and it supported my neck well to help me sleep. The design for that is high marks! The size is also good as I was able to put it in my backpack carry-on everywhere during our 30-hour sojourn. There was no smell to it when I opened it — thank goodness! I also noticed it did not make me hot as some will." —l houwers

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes or with an adjustable cord, five color options, and packs of two).

Promising review: "I used these under my wedding dress recently because we decided to get married in June…in the desert…and heat. Plus, my dress was several layers, so I was afraid I was going to have a heat stroke from walking across the room. Enter: these patches! I put one vertically on the back of my neck (my half-up hairstyle covered the patch well), one on my lower back, and one on each hip under my chub-rub shorts. They stayed on for the whole 45-minute ceremony, the one-hour photo session after, and the entire four-hour reception, and I was able to regulate my temperature despite all the fabric on my dress. Not the usual use for these, but bride's gotta do what a bride's gotta do haha." — AmandaG

Get a pack of four from Amazon for $16.99.

Promising review: My feet STANK in my new shoes that probably had bad ventilation. I started using this, and my feet don’t stank now when I get home after a 12-hour shift. Not only does it work, but it also smells good." —erika

Promising review: "This product delivers exactly as promised and is incredibly easy to use. I suffer from dry skin and often apply various products to soften my feet. With this, I simply spray it on and immediately massage it in with my hands. The dead skin comes off effortlessly. There's no waiting time, and it's gentle on the skin. It leaves my feet feeling exceptionally soft. This has quickly become my new favorite thing." —KimT

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord has this to say about them: "I'm a long-ish distance runner, and these were certainly an interesting experience for my feet! You slide them on and, after a few minutes, feel a tingling, mildly burning (in a good way) sensation. It doesn't quite numb your feet, but it relaxes them. I kept them on for 30 minutes and then toweled my feet off, and the tingling sensation slowly faded over the next 30 minutes. After that, my feet felt very refreshed and relaxed at a time of day when they're usually aching from all the miles I put in. The whole thing was a mess-free, easy process, and I will definitely keep them on hand for longer run days!" 

Promising review: "Very soothing. My husband and l used these on our European vacation, and they definitely felt good on our feet!" —KS2018

Get a set of three pairs from Amazon for $11.97. 

Promising reviews: "I love everything about these boots. They are well made, very fashionable, and comfortable. I was a little concerned about the height of the heel being uncomfortable but I wore them to work all day and didn't have any problems with my feet hurting. Very happy with my purchase!" —momtojsh

"I have wide feet, so I am always scared to buy boots because they tend to be too tight on my feet and hurt after a while. But I ordered my normal size in these boots and they fit perfectly! I’m glad to finally have a pair of boots that don’t suffocate my feet." —Bethany Shaffer

Get them from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in sizes 5.5–11, including wide fits, and 11 styles).

BodyGlide is a small business that specializes in chafe-preventing personal care products. 

Promising review: "Wow. I took this on vacation, during which we walked about 20,000 steps daily. And, of course, my shoes begin to rub against parts of my feet, terribly. But I smeared this on, and it was amazing. I did have to reapply a few times a day, in public, but I highly recommend this!! I used it on my toes, ankle area, etc., and my feet felt great (normal)." —Y.

Reviewers note that fast-food napkins work best when refilling this holder over regular-sized facial tissues that seem to be longer and can be harder to pull out.

Promising review: "As a parent of two energetic toddlers, I can’t emphasize enough how much this tissue holder has transformed our daily outings. With little ones in tow, spills, sneezes, and sticky fingers are par for the course. Having tissues readily accessible in the car has been a game changer. No more frantic searches for napkins or wipes — just a quick pull from the tissue holder! The sleek leather design adds a touch of sophistication to our car interior. It’s not just functional; it’s also a chic accessory. Plus, the rectangular shape fits neatly on the sun visor, making it easy to grab tissues without taking our eyes off the road. In summary, this is a must-have for parents on the go. It’s practical, stylish, and sanity-saving. Trust me, you won’t know how you survived without it!"  —Veronica Smith

Get it from Amazon for $9.79+ (available in four colors).

Promising review: "These are perfect to take when traveling, because you never know if you’re gonna come across a nasty bathroom. They’re compact and they come in packs of 10, so they're small enough to put in your bag or even your pocket." —ChrisB_DZ

Promising review: "I bought these sanitizer sprays to take with me on a trip to Europe. I am so glad I did. The scents are wonderful, they are moisturizing, and they have a case with an attachable hook for my backpack. They far outshine gels and rub in quickly with no stickiness. Such a lucky find that I will continue to use at home." —Suzanne

Get it from Amazon for $16 (available in two scents and a trio set).

Fomin is a small business that specializes in travel soaps and wipes. 

Promising review: "Best thing ever. I work outdoors, and I use this for my job. Doesn’t require lots of water, either, but gets the job done. I actually bought it for my fishing trip and can’t wait to see how well it does." —Amazon Customer

Get a set of three from Amazon for $11.99 (available in single-scent packs, unscented, and larger packs). 

Promising review: "Hydrates even the driest lips in a 0% humidity New Mexico December. Works fast, smells good, and costs less than a lot of other products. This is my go-to for cracked, dry lips." —Molly Goehring

Check out a TikTok of the Strawberry Acai Super Balm in action. 

Promising review: "I can't believe how hydrating this is for how cheap it was. It smells/tastes lovely as well." —Venice De Carlo

Promising review: "These have been a game changer for me! For as long as I’ve been shaving, I always end up with bad razor burn and ingrown hairs :/. I switched to waxing for a while, but with summer around the corner that’s not ideal to keep up with. I was looking for a product that would help soothe my irritation and decided to try these. They’re easy to use and have really helped my skin! I use them right after my showers when I shave (armpits and down below) and then in the mornings the next day to keep irritation down, and they’re great. No burning or weird residue left after. 10/10 would recommend!" —Tori Wag

Get a set of 28 pads from Amazon for $20. 

This stuff is used in a lot of high-end salons, too. So, you'll save a lot of coins when you consider all the trips not taken to get professional waxed. You'll need a heater to warm up the wax — lots of reviewers mention using this one!

Promising reviews: "I don't like shaving my unibrow because I'm lazy and don't want to shave every other day. I used to tweeze all my unibrow hairs one by one; now I use this, which makes life so much easier. What used to take 15 minutes every week now takes one minute. I still tweeze the edges for accuracy, but this helps take out the entire center of the unibrow in one go, which is 90% of the work." —Ammar

"Holy crap. Please listen to this review. This is the best and easiest-to-use wax I have ever tried. It dries super quickly, and when it dries it creates a vacuum seal around the hair. It does not stick to skin in the slightest and cuts the pain down by 75%. I would pay $150 dollars for this stuff because it is so good." —Amanda

Promising review: "I have tried numerous pillows over the years with only one or two I would really call good. This pillow is GREAT. Not only is it just as advertised, but I would say even better. I fluffed this for a good 48 hours before use by following instructions, and even flipping it over a few times during the 48-hour period. It was like a cloud from heaven and still is after a solid week and a half of use. There is no doubt that if I fluffed it a little more, it would all bounce back, but I love where it has settled in at this point. It is the perfect blend of firmness, softness, and support. I believe it has even had some noticeable cooling effects as well that I have always thought was near impossible to actually do for me, especially because I am super hot-natured. With the quality of the material, removable case, etc. I imagine this pillow will last a very long time. I am going to be ordering more for everyone in the house as well as for our guest room." —jesse76450

Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available with one-sided or double-sided cooling, in packs of one or two, and sizes standard through king; also available as a body or camping pillow).

Perilogics is a small business creating hyper-functional tool holsters and bags for carrying your stuff on the go. 

Promising review: "I bought this nifty gadget about six months ago for a multi-leg, ultra-long-haul trip, and it more than held up the entire duration. I was able to finagle it to fit the tray tables on different planes, and like others, I find the height just nice when clamped onto a stowed tray table. It also works on my roller carry-on handle during layovers." —Earendil

Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in seven colors and two-packs).

This compact first aid kit includes 10 round bandage adhesive strips, five butterfly strips, 100 small (40x10mm) strips, 100 standard adhesive strips, one triangle bandage, 10 gauze swabs, five cotton swabs, one burn dressing, one instant ice pack, one emergency blanket, eight soap wipes, one PBT bandage, a pair of plastic scissors, a tourniquet, one adhesive tape, a pair of tweezers, one set of safety pins, 10 wipe pads, and a sturdy first aid bag.

Promising review: "Perfect for my vacation, a 'just in case' kit. Definitely worth the value, a neatly packed first aid kit with ease of use. It fits perfectly in luggage, looks great, and all its contents are suitable for use should an emergency occur." —Samora

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in 10 colors and two sizes).
