Light Saber Chopsticks And 47 Other Products I Can Almost Guarantee Won’t Leave You With Buyer’s Regret Why, yes, you do need a toy that makes your cat dance, a handy-dandy milk frother, and an octopus-shaped blackhead remover. by by Courtney Lynch BuzzFeed Staff , by Abby Kass BuzzFeed Staff 1. A small lamp so you can bring the ~ambience~ to any room in your home. It has 180-degree rotation, 16 color settings, and a remote control. Promising review: “I ordered this lamp as a gift for my husband. We just set up a room in the basement where he keeps his records, films, musical instruments, and other fun stuff. We call it the music listening room — he has a stressful job so he really enjoys going down to the basement and listening to a record and turning on some nice mood lighting.I ordered the sunset lamp as a complement to the theme of the room and we just love it.The closer you are to the wall, the more of a defined circle it will cast, and the farther back you move the lamp you will see more of an ambient light instead.It’s a really cool light that looks great next to our other eclectic lights, lava lamps and such . When not in use, the lamp is very small and discreet, just a few inches high and sits on the desk in the room.” —MBA Squared Get it from Amazon for $16.98 (available in two colors). 2.

Promising reviews: “This product leaves my hair soft and silky every time I use it. It’s a miracle product. There isn’t much of a scent, which is fine. It only takes a small pea-sized amount. When I first purchased this product my hair was very dry and I had just been to the salon where the stylist commented that she could tell I colored and blew my hair dry often, not exactly something you want to hear, so I had a salon treatment done. , of course, suggested I come back more often and pay the exorbitant price of the salon every other week. I don’t think it was all that horrible but it was dry. I found this product on Amazon and used it instead. I’ m really glad I did bc it’s saved me a ton of money.I don’t write many reviews but I really think this is worth sharing with other people and it’s also worth letting the company know they’re coming across with a great product. ” —Laura’s things “I was skeptical. I’ll admit it. I wasn’t sure this would work on my 4c hair. It made my hair so soft! And I didn’t need to use a tremendous amount of product. It made it easy to comb out and blow dry my hair. It even made it smoother after the flat iron. You can’t beat it for the price.” —Niki D. Get it from Amazon for $7.44. And read our full review of Elizavecca’s Hair Protein Treatment. 3. A pet hair removal broom designed to pull wads of hair up regardless of how deep it might be buried. Even if you keep a regular schedule with your vacuum, this tool is SCARY good at tackling any hair that might be embedded in your carpet. Emma Lord / BuzzFeed BuzzFeed Shopping senior writer Emma Lord says: “I do not have a pet, but I shed like nobody’s business. My hair gets so ingrained in the carpet that a vacuum truly does nothing for it, so I often was just unrooting clumps of hair from the floor with my hands (sorry for the look). I bought this broom and it immediately started pulling up GOBS of hair. My carpet, like, genuinely changed color (turns out the pink was supposed to be much pinker, whoops). Anyway, do with that semi-horrifying information what you will — you can read my full review of the pet hair broom for more deets.” Promising review: “I have two dogs — a terrier mix and a short-hair dachshund mix. I have a navy woven couch that LOVES my dachshund’s fur. I have tried pretty much everything to get the fur out — traditional lint roller, those blue fuzzy lint rollers, special vacuum attachments, etc. The terrier’s fur comes out great with all of those options. The dachshund’s fur, much like the dachshund herself, remains stubbornly on my couch. I got this product as the new ‘let’s see if it works’ item of the month with low expectations. THE FUR ACTUALLY CAME OUT, GUYS. It acts like a broom for my couch — sweeping the fur (with some elbow grease) basically onto the floor where I vacuum it up! Give this a try if my story sounds pretty similar to yours!” —Janielle Get it from Amazon for $16.99. 4. A flat outlet plug because bulky, cluttered cords are a thing of the past.

After cleansing, rub it on your face to exfoliate and banish both blackheads and whiteheads. Promising review: “After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me, smells great too. Here’s how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt is visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, then I used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like mine.” —LuckLocust Get it from Amazon for $12.50. 6.

No complaints.” —Kd Get it from Amazon for $4.99. 9. A pair of beaded fan pull extenders so you never have to guess whether you’re pulling the switch for the light or the fan. These also add a good foot of length to your pulls, which is always helpful for the shorties out there.Promising review: “This is the definition of “product you didn’t know you needed because you didn’t know it existed.” I was FOREVER pulling the wrong chain on our bedroom ceiling fan.(Want the light off? Oh no…now the fan’s on high. Need to change the fan speed? Eek…now you’re in the dark.) They’re a much better quality than I expected. They’re actually quite heavy-duty pull chains, and they add a bit of fun to the decor. (When you notice them — most of the time, who even thinks about a ceiling fan pull chain?) As an added bonus, my infant daughter loves staring at them while I change her diaper or jammies.

It genuinely tastes just as salty and buttery and savory as fresh movie theater popcorn. I inhaled it so fast that every single one of my organs lit up in mild alarm.” Promising review: “I am a person who will make myself sick eating buckets of popcorn (I have no self control).

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Maitland Quitmeyer says: “Like many of you, I’ve been living in sweats and PJs during this almost-year of WFH full time. And it’s made me revisit the state of some of my loungewear. Take for example, this college sweatshirt I wear all the time — as evidenced by the rather EXTENSIVE pilling all over it. So when I saw this pumice-esque sweater stone (it’s made from upcycled car windshield glass — how cool is that?!), I decided it was worth the try.We’ve featured electric pill removers (mostly the fan-favorite Conair one) many times, and they really work.But sometimes you’re looking for a little more detail or control — that’s where this stone comes in handy. I was able to navigate around the contours of the logo on my sweatshirt with ease, removing pills using the corner or the entire flat bottom in a few quick strokes.It truly took no time at all — the sweatshirt was done in mere minutes. only thing I would note is that particles do “fall out” of the stone, so do your pill-removing on a surface that’s easy to sweep or vacuum up at the end.” Get it from Celsious for $13. 24.

A clip-on strainer to easily strain hot water and juices from a pot *without* potentially burning yourself OR losing any of your meal. Buyer’s remorse… what’s that? I recently picked one of these up, and it is such a game changer. I have hated using a colander so much. It’s so bulky, hard to use, and takes SO much time to clean. This solves all those problems. I’ve clipped it on various pots and pans, and it’s fit every single one. It makes it ridiculously easy to strain the water out of the pasta and even the excess fat from ground beef. I’m throwing my old colander away because it will never be used now that I have this genius tool! Promising review: “Love, love, love this pasta strainer!!! My husband and I hate cleaning out the strainer, so I ordered this to make life easier. OMG, does it make life easier!!! If this ever breaks, I ‘ll be ordering another!

It inflates to three different heights and comes with earplugs, an eye mask, dust cover, and drawstring bag.Don’t mind if I do! Promising review: “This footrest pillow is essential for those who travel very long distances. It is not only uncomfortable but unhealthy to leave feet dangling down for many hours or days at a time while traveling. I purchased this pillow to situate between my airplane seat and the seat in front of mine. It is wonderful to be able to prop my feet up, with bent knees, while watching movies or sleeping. I regularly fly the same route that is about 30 hours (including layovers), and when I am unable to get a seat upfront, this footrest pillow keeps me more comfortable at the back of the plane.” —Yvonne N Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in four colors).39.A low-effort fizzing toilet tablet that can make one of your most dreaded chores more bearable.Drop it in and watch the fizziness loosen all the nasty buildup and stains.Follow it with a light brushing and flush the filth away!Pardo Naturals is a Black woman-owned small biz founded by Rita Pardo who created natural body, hair, and home products that wouldn’t irritate her daughter’s severe eczema. BuzzFeed Shopping editor Melanie Aman says: “For all the folks who don’t enjoy cleaning the toilet — myself included — these dissolving tablets make quick work of a grimy bowl. The tablets are a little hard to dislodge from the plastic container (though that does make me feel confident that they’re secure during transit and won’t break; mine all arrived intact!), but once you get one out, you drop it in the toilet, and let it do its thing. It’ll start fizzing — just like a bath bomb — loosening any stains and streaks in 10 minutes so they come away with a light brushing. I never let the toilet get too bad (and usually it takes awhile for me to notice any buildup since there are only two people in the apartment), so I can’t vouch for them if you have really set-in hard water stains or haven’t cleaned the commode in six months. But if you’re looking to ditch the harsh cleansers in your toilet-cleaning routine, this is a great addition to your lineup.” Get six tablets from Pardo Naturals for $10.50 (available in seven scents). 40.

The lights come with directions on how to set it up. I had absolutely no trouble setting them up. Everything works great! There is an option of 21 colors, including rainbow mode and a bunch of other modes as well! The remote requires no batteries at all, neither do the lights. If you are thinking about getting these, I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND. Best $20 I’ve spent in my entire life!!” —Taylor Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in three lengths). 42. A tote organizer insert to keep your bag in order when you’re on the go. Empty out that nightmare of a purse and turn it into an organized dream! It has multiple compartments of different sizes so you’ll find a place for everything. Promising review: “This thing is great! I have a large bag I use as a carry-on when I fly by plane. Unfortunately, it has very few pockets and is just like a bottomless pit. This fit perfectly. I was able to organize all of my items quite well. They were easy to retrieve in flight and in the airport. I didn’t use the zipper compartment at all but did put that piece in to use it as a divider. It is well-made and sturdy. Be sure to measure your inner bag space first!” —Susan Get it from Amazon for $15.88+ (available in six sizes and 23 colors). 43.

Promising reviews: “Upon planning our vacation to the beach, I ordered sunscreen, suntan lotion, and sunburn relief from Amazon and packed them in our beach bag. Day two of our vacation, on a cloudy day on the beach in Florida, my husband got sunburned on his feet, legs, and his chest. He started putting sunburn relief on his skin the same day he got burned. We are on day four and he never peeled, he was not in pain, and his sunburn is now tan. This lotion truly works & will be a staple now in our home.” —ymucnxigv “This is my favorite lotion of all time. If you get a sunburn, this stuff is awesome. It soothes the pain and prevents peeling and helps keep your tan. I also use it just for moisturizing after the shower and even for razor burn. It’s essentially just coconut oil aloe and some other essential oils so you can even use it on your face.” —Jason R. Get it from Amazon for $9.99. 44.

An exfoliating scrub mitt to get ~super smooth~ skin ASAP — no irritating chemicals or rough dry brushes needed. Regular exfoliation can also help reduce bumps and ingrown hairs, so this one’s a no-brainer. Promising review: “I have very thin and light body hair, so any form of removal (shaving, waxing, etc) usually leaves me with a lot of ingrown hairs. I’ve tried body scrubs and washcloths and neither really do a great job. I saw this product recommended by a dermatologist on TikTok and thought I’d try it — it’s amazing! I also have very sensitive skin, and this mitt doesn’t leave my skin irritated at all. However, absolutely do not use this mitt on your face, neck, or other sensitive areas, it would be way too harsh. I like to use this mitt first when I get in the shower, then use a body wash (a gentle chemical exfoliant) and follow up with body lotion for dry and sensitive skin. This whole routine is fragrance free and leaves my skin feeling very soft and moisturized.” —Kat Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (also available in a set of two). 46.

Promising review: “The first day I wore these it was amazing. I felt an immediate difference! Before I got my bands, I would be in constant pain from plantar fasciitis and poor arches! I feel the lift and support in these bands more than my special arch supports from my podiatrist. Hopefully, I won’t need any more cortisone shots as long as I have these on my feet!” —mlenz Get them from Amazon for $9.95. 47.

I never had one growing up and didn’t think too much about it until the funky smell started. I researched ways to clean it and came across these. Decided to order a four-pack and try them. THEY ARE LIFE CHANGING. Just run some water, toss the packet in, and turn on the disposal. The little packet does all the hard work for you. I order a new set as soon as we start to run low.” —lucas broshears Get a four-pack from Amazon for $10.96. Reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.
