Promising review: "As a new 30-year-old, I’ve started to notice some aches and pains in the mornings. After suffering terrible neck pain and restless nights, I decided to purchase these pillows after seeing such good reviews. I have had them for about a week now, and I feel incredible! I am a belly/side sleeper, and these are the most amazing pillows I’ve ever used. I sleep soundly and don’t wake up in the night trying to get comfortable. I just purchased two more! These are the best find!!!!!!"—Hope Carlson

Promising review: "If you have night sweats, you need to buy these sheets. I do and I bought a set. Oh my, I just love them. Not only are they soft, but they also seem to be cooling too. No more night sweats for me." —Linda Leynes

Get it from Amazon for $35.68+ (available in sizes twin–Cal. king and in 22 colors).

Promising reviews: "For background, I’m a 34-year-old woman who has had a hysterectomy and is going through some changes quite young. I have been having thyroid issues for years, and I struggle to sleep without sweating. I sweat constantly, no matter how cool it may be. We keep my house around 68 in the winter and 72 in the summer (I live in Georgia, USA, so humidity is a constant problem) and I honestly can’t fall asleep without this blanket. Even when it’s freezing outside, I’ll occasionally wake up sweaty, and the only fix is to wrap this blanket around me and crawl back in bed. I love this blanket so much I got the pillowcases to match." —ClaudiaB.

"WHAT KIND OF SORCERY IS THIS??? I have never once felt a blanket that constantly keeps you cool? I am ALWAYS hot, but I love to be under blankets. This is the PERFECT blanket to keep from overheating. It feels like athletic-type material. A must-buy!!!" —Kenzie

Get it from Amazon for $21.65+ (available in five sizes and 14 colors).

(Psst — you should consult with your doctor before trying anything new involving your neck/back area to make sure it's safe for you!)

For this, instead of like a regular pillow, you're supposed to lay on it in 10-minute intervals; the seller suggests working your way up to it by starting yourself off at five minutes at a time, with a one- to three-day adjustment period before regular use.

Promising review: "This neck relaxer is so easy to use! It took a few times to get used to, but it is not uncomfortable and is very much helpful with my chronic neck pain and shoulder tension. I felt pain relief after the first use! I have even been able to cut back on my chiropractor appointments because of this product. So thankful for this amazing find as I am only 41 and have been struggling with neck pain for several years now." —Mary Beth

Promising review: "I love these more than I ever thought I would! I bought the cream and white and wear them several times a week. They go with jeans, leggings, joggers, athletic shorts. I'm 38 years old and never imagined myself wanting to wear sneakers every day, but here I am! Officially old and preferring these to any other shoe I own. I wear size 8, and these run true to size. No need to untie, as they slip on and off easily. I've been wearing these for five months, and they are holding up well."—805GardenQueen

Get them from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in women’s sizes 6–10 and in 16 colors).

Promising reviews: "This product is amazing. I used it for my chicken and dumplings recipe. I figured it was another one of a “too good to be true” items, but this does everything it says it does. I literally shredded two large chicken breasts in seconds, yes SECONDS!! I wish I would’ve taken a video, but I didn’t. It didn’t move/slip from the counter and it was perfection! Wow, just Wow!" —Ruthie K Voss

"I’m so glad I bought this! I hate peeling chicken and honestly now get excited to use it. I guess that’s life in your late 30’s LMAO." —Mama2727

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in 11 colors).

Promising reviews: "This made my life so much better with chopping onions and other veggies! It’s so quick and easy. One tip is to make sure you cut your veggie small enough so that it’s easy to push down the handle. Big chunks are a little harder to chop. Please be careful with cleaning; the blades are super sharp." —Tasha 

"Seriously, how have I lived the last 34 years without this? So easy! Definitely a must have!" —Maranda Johnson

Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in six colors and seven sets). 

Promising review: "FINALLY, COMFY PANTIES! As a 30-year-old woman, I’ve been on the search for comfy underwear and I finally found them. They’re soft and have the perfect amount of stretch." —Amazon Customer

"So freaking comfy. I need my undies to cradle under my butt cheeks the way a loving mother tenderly cradles her newborn’s face. I was worried these would creep up the cheeks into wedgie territory, but no. Blissful cheek hugging all day long. Can’t feel them even if I tried. No weird pinching or odd areas. Perfect chef’s kiss. I typically wear Aerie boy brief–style undies — these are a close match in fit and comfort, and equivocal in size." —Ali Morey

Promising review: "I never write reviews, ever. This neck fan has literally changed my life. I am 33 and I was forced into menopause after a surgery last February. Since then (15 months ago), I have been sweating. I could do the smallest amount of physical activity, and it will trigger it. This fan has changed everything!! It works so well for me and is pretty comfortable around the neck too!" —Krystle Larson

Get it from Amazon for $27.19+ (available in five colors).

Promising review: "So easy to use! It took a couple of days before anything started happening — my feet just felt 'tight,' and then I saw a bubble on my heel, and it was amazing! After more than 30 years of being in sports and the military, these are phenomenal! My feet were so soft and looked perfect! PS — best to use when you don’t need to wear sandals or show your feet because it takes a couple of days for everything to shed off." —RLeigh

Drop It recommends 1–2 drops for each glass of white wine, 2–3 for a glass of red, and 7–9 if you're treating the whole bottle at once. Once it's in the glass, swirl lightly for 20 seconds, and you should be g2g!

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly says, "I've tried these before on some weekend friend getaways where we drank a LOT of wine and I think they really work! Just don't get overeager squeezing the bottle because then you can put way too much in your glass and make your wine taste weird. Yep, I did that and learned my lesson." 

Promising review: "I became really sensitive to wine in my 30s and through a lot of trial and painful error, I thought I might have to give up on wine altogether. Then I found out about the preservatives being a possible cause and decided to give this product a shot. So glad I did!! I'm still pretty sensitive to reds but this helps tremendously so that I can have a glass with dinner without a headache immediately settling in. Whites cause me no problem what so ever! I love that it takes so little product to make a difference to a whole bottle. Just a few drops, a few minutes and we are good to go." —CastawayIrons

BTW, a lot of reviewers say they use this as part of their double cleansing routine. As the name implies, double cleansing is a method of cleansing your face twice: first with an oil-based cleanser, and again with a water-based cleanser to help get all the yucky stuff out of your pores.

Promising review: "I’m 36 and I have fairly good skin but for the past 6 years since I turned 30- it’s gotten rough. My pores are bigger etc. I tried everything out there that promised to do what this product does. It’s only been the first day and finally something is helping for my pores on my cheeks. After the first DAY ladies. Maybe it’s just me- but I already see this is amazing. So it’s going in my must have skincare for daily use. Highly recommend." —Harleyqueen

Get it from Amazon for $17.69 (also available in a mild version for sensitive skin). 

The firmness of the "Sqeezy" sponge changes depending on your water temp — you can use cold water for a firmer sponge or warm water to soften it up!

In case you're not familiar with The Pink Stuff paste, this non-abrasive formula works on walls, grout, kitchen counters, sinks, stovetops, ceramic tile, metal, appliances, outdoor furniture...basically anything you can think of. 

Promising review: "I definitely am not one to leave a product review but I felt I had to for the Pink Stuff - I have tried for 30 years to find something to clean my 30+ year old fiberglass tub and shower - that ring around the base would just never go away - I bought the paste and did a complete clean and was absolutely shocked how well it worked. It removed years of grime. I have since bought the spray and used that this morning in the tub and it was amazing - I would give this product 20 stars if I could! Hats off to this company and product." —Holly P. Rist

Get the set (one Pink Stuff jar and a "Sqeezy") from Amazon for $9.40. 

It's fragrance-free, and you can apply morning and night! 

Note: This product is specifically recommended for use on the neck and chest. Some reviewers have tried using this on their face and have seen positive results, but it's not marketed for that purpose.

Promising review: "I am super impressed by the results from this lotion! I am in my 30s and have chest wrinkles from the sun. After a month or so, I saw a huge difference in the skin tightening and smoothing out! A must buy." —The Greens

Sagely is a family-owned small business founded by husband-and-wife team Ellie Glazer and Ivor Miskulin, who spent three years designing the ideal, stress-free pill storage solution. The silicone lids are super secure, but also designed for gentle and easy opening and closing to account for users with dexterity issues.

Promising review: "Love this thing!!! I'm 30 and thought this one was modern and cool. The little slots to push in pills is fantastic and the containers are very large. It keeps my huge vitamin pills on either side and could fit over 10 large ones if needed. Love this thing. Worth the price and looks like it'll last forever. I do wish the magnets were stronger. They just keep them in place but will slide off if bumped. I assume this is helpful for people with arthritis. It's an easy fix. I take down one day's worth of pills, set it on my counter and now I'm not too lazy to take my pills!" —Chicken McNugget

Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (available in four colors).

Psst — a lot of reviewers also swear by this for relieving eczema!

Promising review: "Since moving to Chicago my hands have been suffering severely from dry cracked skin to the point of bleeding. I'm in my 30s with the hands of an 80 year old! THIS HAND CREAM IS THE BEST I HAVE EVER USED AND THE ONLY HAND CREAM ANYONE NEEDS FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIFE!!! One application alone gives tremendous relief, two applications and you forget your hands were ever dry. A small amount goes a long way. It absorbs immediately, it's light and non greasy. I don't know what else you can need, it's so effective my hands look and feel great again. In fact, just recently my face started to get really dry too and I've been moisturizing twice a day all my life. Nothing helped. Last night I decided to put this hand cream on my face, figured it does wonders for my hands, why not? I woke up this morning. Dry skin has all but gone!" —RS

Promising review: "Perfect shade from the Florida sun. I’ve looked at all sorts of contraptions to get some shade at the beach. This one is the only one that you can put up and carry by yourself. The umbrella attaches easily to the chair and can move as the sun does to ensure you don’t get burned. I’ll be getting another one for my pale friends to use. I love the pattern, too!" —Missy

Promising review: "I wish I had found this iced coffee maker years ago. I live in Florida and the summers are extremely hot, so I like to drink iced coffee in the morning during the summer. I grind up coffee beans and fill the infuser with them, then just fill up the pitcher with filtered water and let it infuse over night. When I wake up in the morning I have excellent-tasting iced coffee and it makes my mornings quick, because all I have to do is pour it into a to go cup. I can usually get about five fills out of one pitcher. I absolutely love this device and will always have one now that I have found it. You do not need anything more expensive or complicated than this." —Ashley Bouchard

Promising reviews: "This item fit perfectly on my head rest. I hang my purse from it. I am 33 and work in a corporate ish setting and a single mom. So you know that purse hold every dang thing possible. It's heavy. And it holds it everyday. So glad it came with 4." —Beckyg727

"This product has been so awesome for helmets and baseball bags this season! It keeps our car organized, and they are super sturdy. I’m sure I’ll find many more uses for them, but they definitely were a great find and I’d buy them again!" —Casey Schoening

Many reviewers also say it helps reduce puffiness on their face when used in the morning.

Promising review: "Well made for the price. I find it’s helpful in the morning for puffy eyes. It’s great to use after a workout in sunny Florida. I use it to cool down and reduce redness after exercising." —Amazon Customer

This massager can also help increase blood flow to your scalp, which can help promote hair growth.

Promising review: "I’ve suffered from dry skin and a dry scalp ever since I turned 30. The only thing that helps me is exfoliating. I was initially concerned that the product would be too rough and damage my sensitive scalp or too soft and ineffective. However, this brush is perfect for me. It does not tangle my long hair, it is easy to use and just firm enough to get the job done. My scalp no longer itches and the icky buildup is gone. I can’t believe something so affordable has made such a difference in the health of my scalp. I’ve used expensive shampoos and conditioners to no end with barely a difference. I wish I discovered this product much sooner!" —AH

Get it from Amazon for $6.49+ (available in three colors).

Promising reviews: "I love the price and it's so soft. Take care of your hair, people; this pillowcase will prevent abrasive ribbing throughout the night compared to a regular pillowcase. I'm a male approaching 30, and this is one of my must-haves for hair restoration." —Zackari

"I've been using these pillowcases for about a week now, and I have to say that they have really seemed to help my hair not be so frizzy when I wake up! I live in a hot and humid climate, and my hair normally just makes my life awful this time of year (summer). I have been trying a couple of new things to help my hair, like using Moroccan Oil on the ends and these pillowcases, and it's really a lot better. I also feel better about sleeping on my side now and don't worry so much that I'm creating wrinkles. I would definitely buy these again and recommend them!" —R. Spann

Promising review: "These were a thoughtless stocking stuffer for my partner, who is 31-years-old. I knew he’d enjoy them, but I was delighted by how much he played with them. He even invented games with a friend, like throwing a ball on the ceiling and trying to place a cup on the floor where he thinks it will land. I joined in of course. These guys are nice and sticky but don’t leave behind any gunk. very fun." —jessica carlan

Promising review: "I bought one of these for my oldest daughter and it worked so well I ended up buying another for my youngest daughter (both in their 30's). It worked wonderfully, they said it was an easy pour and the flavor was accented by the Aerator. Great invention." —RDUB

Promising review: "I HATE jeans. That’s important to understand. They’re leg prisons. But THESE jeans?! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 AMAZING!!!

Grampa's Gardenware Co. is a small, family-owned business based in Oregon making tools for gardening. They've been making this tool since 1913! 

Promising review: "Our backyard has a ton of weeds. I have fertilized and sprayed roundup. They keep popping up. So, my wife and I started pulling them. It took forever and we were both very sore the day after. I found this online and was very excited when it was delivered. We are both in our 30s and actually argued (playfully) over who was going to use it. We have so many weeds, but this tool put a pretty big dent in the job. I think we can clear the entire yard in a few days. We could never have done that pulling by hand. We love it! It is so easy, our 5-year-old is helping." —Ryan Kelley
