Read more about how an Epsom salt soak or bath can help with stress and muscle relaxation at Cleveland Clinic. Promising review: "I pretty much love all these Epsom salt scents, and this one is no exception. This one has notes of campfire along with a sweet scent, almost like vanilla, but with a more woodsy overtone." —CH Get it from Amazon for $5.87 (also available as a two-pack; psst — you may also wanna try the popular "cozy vanilla season" before it sells out again!!). Promising review: "Do not hesitate to try this product if you have a hard skin problem on your feet. It takes a few days to see a difference, but now I can see a change. Just like that, the skin on my pinky toe is not rock solid anymore. Bye bye, pain — and I am not joking." —Majda Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (also available as a two-pack). Patchology is a small business that specializes in themed beauty products. Promising review: "Super hydrating for my feet! You can usually see when my feet are dry, but when I use this, they stay hydrated for a week after use! Love these!" —Michelle Promising review: "I couldn’t live without this! I get so busy and sometimes don’t have the time to wash my dishes, but if I spray my dishes with Dawn, I know I can leave them, and when I do get time, they are practically done for me. Thank you for this product!" —Amazon Customer Promising review: "Adorable little Cam the kitty. Nice smooth lip balm. Nice scent and taste. Very easy to use. Squishy as it should be." —VWlover Get it from Amazon for $5.99 (also available in three other scents/shapes and in packs of two). Check out a TikTok of the Prepara Salad Pod in action. Promising review: "This is a very nice item and is just as it is pictured. I wanted something different to use and this was the perfect idea. I can use it for more than what it was designed for!! Perfect choice!" —Ms. T Get it from Uncommon Goods or Amazon for $25. Promising review: "I bought this sticker book for my Taylor Swift-loving daughter, and it did not disappoint! She uses the stickers on everything from cards to water bottles. They didn’t forget any era either! Super fun and cute — stickers are good quality too." —Ele W. Promising review: "I stocked up with a six-pack of this oil because it's literally heaven. Strong projection, long-lasting, just a delicious blend of warm vanilla and sweet cocoa! I will never get tired of it. Choco Musk is already bomb by itself, but you can pair it with any gourmand scent and layer it for a deeper scent profile. I'm wrapped in a yummy scent bubble that leaves an alluring scent trail. 😍" —tima Get a set of two from Amazon for $7.85 (also available in larger sets). Promising review: "I love lists. Usually, I don't use paper calendars because the squares are either too small or too "timed appointment oriented" for my listy lifestyle. Sometimes, I just need to write down a lot of information on a certain day. This calendar is organized just right. I love that you can start it at any time of the year. The paper quality is really heavy and smooth, so pens don't bleed through. Cuz on the back of each calendar page? More space for lists!" —Sonya W Get it from Amazon for $9.62 (also available in gray). Promising reviews: "The TikTok girlies did not lie. This is great. Smells divine without being too strong." —patricia bentham "I’m obsessed with this lotion! It smells amazing, and the scent lingers beautifully on my skin all night. By the 24-hour mark, it’s faint but still there, and the hydration lasts the entire time. I’ve seen a lot of people compare it to EOS vanilla cashmere, but I personally love this one more because it’s much more moisturizing. Even though the fragrance isn’t as strong, I love the soft hint of vanilla and cocoa butter it leaves behind. It pairs perfectly with my gourmand perfumes and body sprays. Definitely my new go-to!" —Kxyxlli Check out a TikTok of the foaming pink drain cleaner in action. Promising review: "Wow! I don't think I've ever been more excited to use a cleaning product before. Who knew you could get so much satisfaction from a drain cleaner. I could probably make an ASMR video and post it, as it is that satisfying! Even though I had to angle this over my sink drain, to avoid the low faucet, it worked perfectly. The foam went down the drain and up through the overflow, bringing lots of black, yucky gunk with it. I have used lots of drain cleaners before, but not one that actually came up through the overflow. I'd never even considered what stuff was in there. It did a great job of cleaning everything out and it left the sink smelling fresh and clean as well." —Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $15.98 (also available as a two-pack). Doap was created by Joshua Grange, a musician whose love for breadmaking led to the creation of a tool that would solve the problem of perpetually sticky dough hands. Get it from Doap for $24.99 (originally $29.99; available in seven colors). Promising review: "I have trivets. Several of them. But when I need them, they’re never there! I have to dig through my drawer just to locate one. Then I see this. What an amazing concept! They look cute on my counter or table. They’re easy to use! Pull one off the 'tree' and set it on the counter/table. If it gets dirty, just wipe it down and put it back in the tree. Honestly, I love this tree and all its 'branches!'" —Cynthia Lancaster Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in four colors). Promising review: "I love these! These add the cutest touch to any outfit. They make you feel better about wearing a hair tie on your wrist. And they function great as both a hair tie and a bracelet! Not too tight to wear as either. Love them!" —Tiara Scheurell Get a set of 20 from Amazon for $7.99 (available in nine styles). Eight Saints is a small business that specializes in skincare products. Promising review: "I'm a huge fan of all things Eight Saints. I have sensitive skin, and this is the first skincare line that I have seen results in my skin texture and fine lines while not triggering my eczema. When I saw they added this neck cream to their product line, I knew I had to try it. At 39 years old, I've noticed some loss in firmness of my skin on my neck, and when I wake up in the morning, I have wrinkles on my decolletage from side sleeping. I started using this about a week ago, and I've already noticed improvements in the fine lines on my neck, plus when I wake up in the morning, no more wrinkles on my chest! It's so smooth, thick, and creamy, but rubs into your skin with ease, and it's so hydrating. Top quality product again from Eight Saints!" —Ms Leach Promising review: "Nice and thin. You'll find so many more uses for these around the house than just getting stuff off the underside of cookware! I had hard, scaly water deposits on the glass surrounding our powder room faucet (one of those fancy, highfalutin modern-looking things). I've tried everything for four years to get this stuff off. One day, I thought, maybe I'll try my sponges. Took it all off super easily!!!! The faucet looks like new. My only rec is to spot-test your item first before using it because it will scratch certain surfaces if you scrub too aggressively (for example, it gets the burned-on, weird stuff off of the bottom of my fave pan, but I rubbed too hard in one spot and it took the color right off lol)." —Hoarder Get an eight-pack from Amazon for $8.29+ (available in two sponge thicknesses). Promising review: "Super soft. Love the way it feels. I feel like I have been missing out because I don’t like to use the hard metal or plastic on my face, especially when I’ve had a long day and don’t want more negative sensory input. This will get me to do some self-care because it is actually pleasant to use. Excited to make this part of my routine before the end of the night." —AlwaysAHunt Promising review: "Organizing genius !!! The magnet is VERY strong. Also comes with an adhesive that I used to attach a drink packet organizer on the fridge to make my whole drink area perfect." —Jenn Rieger Get the four-capacity model from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in black or white and a three-capacity model!). Londontown is a small business that primarily sells nail care. Promising review: "This refreshes my worn-out manicure very well. I apply this as a topcoat over my old manicure. It respreads and smooths out the polish and leaves it fresh and shiny. It's a bit pricey, but it does save me a lot of time and trouble not having to repolish my nails." —SoniaSophia You can check out Vaseline's radiant body oils and lotions for more options! Promising review: "I love this stuff. It’s super moisturizing and smells so good. The scent is vanilla cocoa and mixes well with other vanilla scents. It doesn’t leave a sticky feeling, and I love that it leaves skin glowy and shimmery. BUY!" —Amazon Customer Promising review: "This stuff smells SO good! Like a sweet, sugary citrus, but not overpowering so, just a light fresh scent. The smell lasts forever. I used a kitchen towel to wipe my counters down and then hung the towel up and the next day, I could still smell it when I walked into the kitchen. For the scent alone, I would purchase this again! As for cleaning ... it is not a disinfectant, it is just a general multipurpose cleaner, so I wouldn't use it to clean toilets or anything like that. It does a WONDERFUL job at cleaning and cutting through grime and grease. It actually surprised me! It doesn't leave residue or streaks but does leave a clean shiny surface. The bottle is plenty big. The only con is that the spray mechanism doesn't work the greatest. Sometimes it sticks. I use glass spray bottles so I just put it in one of those to solve that issue. Overall, definitely recommend!" —Joshua Hornish Promising review: "My blueberries stay fresh and crisp in this container, rather than the familiar fate of becoming soggy and moldy! I love how I can wash the berries in the strainer, pop it into the basket, and then look forward to the BEST blueberries EVER!!!!!" —Anonymous Check out a TikTok of the taming wand in action. For thicker or curlier hair types, you might want a stronger gel formulation, like Mielle's rosemary mint strengthening edge gel. Dae is a small business that specializes in haircare and styling products. Promising review: "I’ve tried numerous products for taming baby hairs, especially post-partum, and this is hands down the best thing I’ve tried. It also smells incredible! Love the size of the styling wand!" —Completely happy customer! It doesn't contain any alcohol, so you could easily use it for mocktails too! Sayso is a woman-owned small business that specializes in the first-ever cocktail tea bag, perfect for cocktails *and* mocktails. Promising review: "I was a bit skeptical when I purchased, but these are actually fantastic. The taste is great, and the bags make it incredibly easy to mix up what would otherwise be complex cocktails quickly and easily. I've had the spicy marg, espresso martini, and old-fashioned versions, and while they aren't exactly the same as the original, they are wonderful for making yourself a cocktail at home. Highly recommend." —Meredith Get eight bags from Amazon for $16.99 (available in nine cocktail styles and larger multipacks). This works on any type of video or standard doorbell. Stickers are included. Promising review: "Caring for my mom, who has Parkinson's and dementia, I’ve had to deal with startling sounds like the doorbell, which can be really distressing for her. The "Fits Any Doorbell, Rotates-a Dual Purpose Sign" has been a game-changer. This sign is easy to install with no tools needed and fits perfectly on our doorbell." —Donna Check out why these are a fave in this TikTok. Lilac St. is a woman- and AAPI-owned BTW! Promising review: "Y’all, I have been a loyal Lilac St. customer since they started, and I will never leave them. These are the absolute best quality. I get so many compliments. They are the most natural and most comfortable to wear. I use several times by using makeup remover and water to remove any glue. Seriously will never stray." —Katiew Get the starter kit from Amazon for $38 (includes two sets of Original lashes, lash glue, and an applicator). Promising review: "I have a tiny camper and needed to store our 1-inch latex bed toppers rolled up during the day. They are 30 inches by 80 inches. I bought two of these storage pillow covers. The mats fit perfectly, and I even have room to spare, which makes the process easy. I love the neutral color and the quality of the materials. With putting the mats in and taking them out daily, I needed it to stand up to daily use. After months, they are holding up beautifully. The zipper is smooth and strong. We need pillows in our camper for back support anyway so these now serve that purpose as well. Great purchase and worth the cost as I avoided getting them custom made like I thought I would need to do." —Harvey Kaplowitz Promising review: "I didn't know what to expect from this super adorable anxiety bookshelf, but it delivered! I shake it up when I feel anxiety, even frustration, and I sort all the little books back onto the shelves any way I want, and it is sooo satisfying! The bookshelf is super cute and well-built. It is sturdy and beautiful. The tiny books are detailed, and their covers are amazing. They aren't actual books, but they really look like they are. This is the most gratifying gift I have ever purchased for myself. Beyond satisfied!" —Elda M Ferguson Get it from Amazon for $26.99 (available in five colors). Bed Corner Labels is a woman-owned small business based in Hermosa Beach, California. These labels can be left on sheets while they're in the washer and dryer. They can also be detached and reattached a limited number of times. Promising review: "They're easy to attach to sheets and look better than the safety pin I was using to designate the long side of my king-sized sheets." —ESimms5555 Get a set of four from Bed Corner Labels on Etsy for $13.75+ (available in larger sets and eight styles). Check out a TikTok of Nick's bars in action. Promising review: "I have tried Nick's salted caramel keto ice cream and LOVED it, so I wanted to search for some more of Nick's products and found these chocolates. I got the coconut and peanut/fudge ones, and let me tell you they are DELICIOUS! I would highly recommend these chocolates and will definitely be ordering again in the near future!!" —Emina Get a 15-count variety pack (Coconut and Peanuts & Fudge) from Amazon for $33.99 (also available in other options!). Psst — Nick's also makes a DELICIOUS variety of Swedish-style chocolate protein bars and nut bars you can check out on their Amazon storefront! Promising review: "Bought this brush to replace my old travel brush. Love the storage compartment! Didn't realize that it actually CAME with hair ties, clips, and bobby pins (didn't notice these in the description). Such an amazing surprise. And the brush is great! Detangles and smoothes wonderfully. Even tamed my staticky hair. Love it!" —...cat mama Check out a TikTok of the retractable remote tether in action. Promising review: "Our family often misplaces remotes. I bought this to help solve that problem and we have not lost the remote since. It's super easy to set up and use, the product itself isn't too pricey. Definitely worth the time and money." —Chelsea Get a two-pack from Amazon for $14.99 (also available individually). Good Molecules is a small business that specializes in affordable skincare products. To use the powder, mix a teaspoon with a few drops of water until it foams, then massage in gentle circles on your face before rinsing. Promising review: "This is the best thing since sliced bread. I am on bottle number three. My face routine is forever changed. I pray they never raise their prices. This is akin to Dermoligica, but like half the price. Get it, don't hesitate." —Chris Promising review: "I ordered this for my wife after I just about died, realizing the potential harm her ring faced each time we were at the gym. 😵 It works PERFECTLY, fits true to size, and covers her wedding band AND engagement ring!" —Jordan Neumann Get it from Amazon for $24.95+ (available in sizes 4–12, eight colors, and in multipacks). Boona is a small business on a mission to make showers more enjoyable, whether you're showering alone or with a partner. Promising review: "This is a high-quality product that’s straightforward to install. The water pressure is incredible! It’s like a brand-new shower. You can adjust which showerhead the water comes out of individually or both simultaneously. It’s a game changer for our kids, so they don’t fight over the water anymore!" —Taylor Get it from Amazon for $314 (available in four colors). Check out a TikTok of the laptop lunch tote in action. Promising review: "This is such a nice tote bag with plenty of room for my food in the cooler compartment and also for my Macbook Pro and several other folders and a planner! An excellent purchase, the material is nice quality and the price is awesome! I did not want to spend a lot of money, but I was pleasantly surprised with this bag! Now, instead of carrying a tote bag with my computer, planner, and other files AND a separate cooler bag for my meals, I carry ONE bag into work every day! So wonderful." —vcraig Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in two sizes and 11 colors). Reviews in this post have been edited for length and/or clarity.
