Check out a TikTok of the sunset lamp in action. 

Promising review: "This lamp really exceeded my expectations. I bought it on a whim and honestly wasn't expecting that much, but I'm really happy with it. Feels like it's made of durable, quality material and emits a strong light, but it's not too bright — I use it in the evenings when I'm trying to wind down before bed and it's bright enough to light up my room without feeling like it's going to mess up my sleep cycle. Highly recommend — really does feel like you're watching a lovely sunset :)" —amazon customer

This pitcher is BPA-free, dishwasher safe, and locks in all the fresh coffee flavors. Just add ground coffee, cold water, refrigerate, and voila! My caffeine obsession will definitely be getting much worse now.

Promising review: "I ordered the larger size of this product and I am very pleased with the quality and simplicity of it! It takes me no more than 2–3 minutes to get the jar prepped, and letting it sit 12–24 hours in the refrigerator has had the best results for me. The jar itself is easy to clean, but you do have to rinse the mesh cone out for quite a while to get all the grounds out. It fits perfectly in my refrigerator, and lasts me about 4–5 days. This cute cold brew coffee jar is such a life and time saver for my busy college mornings!" —Bailey Bryant

Promising review: "I rolled my eyes at myself when I bought this, fearing I had succumbed to yet another TikTok influencer trend. It has paid for itself many times over — it makes my milk suuuper foamy and fluffy, noticeably improving my morning coffee ritual. The battery life is seriously impressive. I used it every day for over two years, and only this morning had to switch the batteries out. I use it with plant based milk and it works beautifully, especially if you get a "barista" variety. (I've used it with oat, almond, and homemade cashew milks.) And jeez, I'd forgotten how well this little guy does the job on a full charge. After changing the batteries this morning, it was as powerful as a drill, making my milk triple in size in only a few seconds. Bottom line, I definitely recommend this milk frother. (I've seen people use it to emulsify homemade salad dressing too, which I also plan to try.)" —kichijoji

Promising review: "This is the perfect easy breakfast sandwich maker. It cooks the egg perfectly (I used jumbo eggs, and it worked perfectly just like regular eggs). It’s honestly one of my personal favorite appliances. I just had a baby, and having something I can crack an egg into and let it sit to cook without having to flip and it’s done within five minutes is honestly a lifesaver, and it cleans super easy! 10/10 I love this thing; it's just like my George Foreman!" —Emily

The color adaptive formula is designed so one of two shades will work on any skin tone. Check out a TikTok of the brightener in action.

Promising review: "Took years off my eyes! This product is so reasonably priced. I came across a TikTok promoting this and decided to take a chance since the price was super reasonable. My eyes looked brighter in a good way, and the concealer worked so well that I felt I looked younger. I got compliments from friends asking what I did differently with my makeup. I recommend it." —Placeholder

Apply this directly to wet hair, avoiding the roots, massage it in for eight seconds, then rinse. Practically NO effort required. You can use one dose for fine- to medium-textured hair, two to three doses for thick- to curly-textured hair, and add one more dose if you have long hair.

Promising reviews: "I don’t usually do reviews on products, but for this one I absolutely have to. I have 3c-type hair and struggle a lot with breakage, unmanageability, and moisture. When my mom mentioned this product to me, I didn’t take her seriously because of the simple fact that we have two completely different hair textures. I never would have thought this brand would work on my hair. I have never in my 22 years felt my hair like this. I feel like I have a completely different head of hair. This product is so amazing, and I will FOREVER be using this product in my hair regimen. Thank you so much!! ♥️" —Theressa Hailey

"Yes, I actually saw this product reviewed on TikTok and had to try it. It is amazing stuff OMGOSH!!! I have already purchased my second bottle. I have a lot of hair, and it gets tangled easily. This stuff made it soft and manageable after the first use." —Jennifer Borchers

Promising review: "I have very, very fine and fragile hair. It’s wavy (2b–2c with some 3a curls mixed in). My ends are dry, and my scalp gets very oily quickly. When the product arrived, I was on second-day hair. I worked the foam through my roots and the sides of my head. The most oily places for me. It was easy to work through, and it smelled fresh and clean. My results were amazing! My roots looked clean, no residue or buildup like powder dry shampoos. My scalp does not itch, and it gives my fine, flat hair a ton of volume. Also, my hair looks thicker when I use it. I usually can’t go more than a day or two without washing my hair. With this product, I was able to go four days without washing my hair." —Amelia Tilton

Promising review: "You need this! Super soft hair and cuts drying time! This stuff is seriously magic. I have thick hair, and I hate drying it because it just takes so long. I separate it, pin it up, spray the bottom half, dry, and then do the top. It’s perfect! Agree with some of the other folks that said you need to find the perfect amount...too much, you could be greasy. But you’ll only do that once. Regardless, it smells amazing, and your hair will be so soft! Get this!" —Jessica W

The Fro Experts is a Georgia-based, Black woman–owned natural haircare brand on Etsy formulated for type 3 and 4 hair textures.

Psst — this is meant to be used in place of water as a refresher, but per the brand, can be used right after conditioning as the “liquid” portion of the LOC method in your wash 'n' go or as a detangler.

Promising review: "OMG and AMEN... Seriously, I have TRUE 4c hair and I have never in my 36 years experienced a true 100% natural/organic hair product, and for this to be my first time I'm beyond impressed. So pleased with my 2-year-old daughter's hair as well :-) Product does EVERYTHING its described to do :-)." —Rosanna Quinones

Promising review: "This mat has a workout session built right in! I started using the mat and doing ALL of the poses except two that I’m not advanced enough to do and weeks later I have started mastering all of the moves and I am so much stronger. My pack pain is virtually gone. Highly recommend if you are motivated to do the poses." —Patricia L. Purcell

Promising review: "I am a licensed cosmetologist of 30+ years and I couldn’t be more pleased! Salon-perfect, shiny, bouncy blow outs! Dries and styles in one or two easy passes ( on damp hair) and provides maximum lift if I style it that way. Easily dries and styles large sections of hair making this THE BEST hairstyling tool! Highly recommend! I use the low setting and cool blast. Surprised and very happy that I don't need med/high settings. Only caveat I have come across so far: the temp/speed setting is in an awkward place to be able to change it while using. Learning curve, I suppose. Otherwise, another GREAT styling tool from Revlon! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️" —ERJ

To preface my opinion on this espresso machine, I am a *huge* coffee enthusiast. The barista of the family, if you will (not to toot my own horn). I resisted purchasing this machine for YEARS because I never thought the price tag could ever truly be worth it. However, with my NYE resolution of cutting my Starbucks expenses came the dilemma of creating an at-home process that would give me the perfect cup of coffee. So, I finally decided to make the investment in the Breville Barista espresso machine. To summarize, I am now reluctant to have any caffeinated libations that don't come from this thing. It adds so much more creamy richness to your brew. And!! It most definitely pays for itself in the long run. I can't even begin to tell you how much $$$ I've saved on trips to and drinks from the coffee shop (it really does all add up!!). Trust me — once you get the use of it down, you'll never go back. My only regret is that I didn't get it sooner!

Promising review: "I chose this maker after extensive research so I could choose the heat of the milk by touch, dialing in taste by preference, and the "hands-on" experience that true cooks love. BEST  ESPRESSO, CAPPUCCINO, TEA, BLACK COFFEE I've ever had. Worth 5X the price." —Include the details

Promising review: "This was purchased for me as a Christmas gift from a coworker. I only recently started using it, as I've been dealing with some troubles in my life. I don't know what it is, but even if I repeat some of the same stuff...getting this done in the mornings (or sometimes at night if I don't make the time in the mornings) has made such a tremendous difference in my attitude toward myself and to others. So much so, that several people have taken notice. I have since purchased a couple of copies for friends who are also dealing with troubles in their lives. I highly recommend it. Even if you aren't dealing with any issues in life, it's such a help for clearing your head before starting your day." —Sumo

To use, just gather your hair and twist it into a tight bun (no hair tie needed!), tuck in the ends, and spin the pins into the edges of your bun.

Promising review: "When even a ponytail won't do and a hat isn't socially acceptable, pull out the spin pins. These are easy to carry in your purse for emergency hair days. They twist together/around each other so they stay kind of bundled together, and I keep them with several regular bobby pins to keep stray hairs tucked together. I find the minis are far more comfortable to wear as well as easier to get in the hair. You will still need a few pins to secure some random loose hairs if a PERFECT bun is your goal. But if you are like me and most days you just need your hair out of your face and off your neck, these are excellent since the bun stays put. Works beautifully under scrub caps as well." —Blondiechick

Promising review: "I've been a certified makeup artist for 12 years. Used for my cousin's wedding makeup, and they worked really well as far as catching fallout and shaping goes, but taking them off, they really stick, so just be gentle. Still great." —Andrea

Here's what BuzzFeeder Jenae Sitzes has to say about it: "I picked up this color removal sponge from Amazon after hearing about this hack on TikTok and can testify that it actually works SO well. I'm *so* bad about cleaning my brushes (I know...shameful) and this makes it super easy to clean a brush in a matter of seconds. So even if I'm trying to do a *slightly* more elaborate eyeshadow look for the day, this makes the process of switching colors as quick and painless as possible. Also, it's *super* lightweight, and I've already tossed it in my bag and brought it on vacation with me. This is one of those products I won't be traveling without in the future if I plan on doing eyeshadow at any point — and it means you only need to pack one or two eyeshadow brushes!" 

Promising review: "This product makes it even easier for me to be lazy when it comes to cleaning my brushes. It also allows me to use the same brush for a makeup look since I can swish away a previous shadow and move on to the next. Great buy. Super easy to wash. I'm not going anywhere anytime soon, but when I do finally travel again, I'm sure this will be excellent to travel with and make it so that I only need to bring one or two brushes." —Azaleah Bumpus-Barnett

Get a two-pack from Amazon for $6.99 (also available as a pack of four).

Check out a TikTok of the melatonin spray in action. 

Promising reviews: "I am obsessed with the smell, it's very relaxing and definitely helps me wind down and fall asleep faster than I would without using it. I pair the mist and a melatonin gummy, and I'm out like a light. Highly recommend!!!" —Kari

"This stuff is miraculous! I bought the three-pack. I’m a migraine sufferer and am sensitive to many smells. I keep a bottle next to my bed, one by my chair in the living room, and one for traveling. If I’m getting stressed or feel a headache coming on, just half a pump on the back of my chair helps so much. A pump of spray onto my pillow is relaxing." —arlene julian-punch
