Promising review: “I bought these about a year ago, and I’m still wearing them every single day. I love them so much. They are great, and they’re durable. I got the ones that don’t have the heels on the back. 10 out of 10 recommend.” —Beth Kemp

Next time you’re sitting there with your ‘the words make me feel good about myself’ mug that says ‘live, laugh, love’ or ‘best mom ever’ or whatever lie you want to believe, just remember, this mug exists and you don’t own it…yet!” —Dakota

Get it from Amazon for $18.

Promising review: “You won’t find a better tote bag anywhere else. I would commit crimes for this tote bag if I had to. Every time I look at the little duck feet hanging off, I feel such immense amounts of joy that it makes me feel sick. The little duck face is akin to what I imagine angels look like: friendly and serene.” —Sam Kling

Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in three styles and two sizes).

7. A windshield sunshade — why settle for a boring, plain sunshade when you can turn your car into Lighting McQueen? It’ll still keep your car cool and even has an umbrella-like design that’s so much easier to use than accordion versions. So you’ll have a fun and practical sunshade — to that I say, KA-CHOW ⚡🏎️.

Promising review: “This saved me in the Texas summer. The traditional ‘accordion cover’ always took too long to set up and fold back, it was also baggy on my car. But this umbrella-like design works great. It takes two seconds to put up or take down, fits perfectly against my windshield, and definitely makes a difference in the temperature of my car. I’ll definitely buy another one for a backup.” —Jade Rigsby

Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in four colors).

Promising review: “These socks brighten my day every time I wear them. I love that they hold hands and have other sock friends to hold hands with. I gave the second pair to a coworker so we can high-five throughout the workday. Makes our hard days better and our good days even brighter!” —AK Lady

Get two pairs from Amazon for $14.99 (available in two styles).

10. A charming glasses display stand — c’mooon, there’s nothing cuter and funnier than a tiny animal wearing oversize glasses! You’ll finally have a designated spot for your specs so you don’t have to go through the panic of “OMG, I need to find my glasses but I can’t see clearly” every. single. day. 

Promising review: “I usually store my glasses in their case. I don’t know why that’s such a hassle, but I like to be able to just reach for them. But they are also unsafe when they are just sitting on my desk. This little koala solves my problem! He holds my glasses securely and does it in the cutest way possible. Now I can sit at my desk, grab my glasses, and get to work with a smile on my face. And at the end of the day, I just leave them with my koala for safe keeping. Seriously, just get one. I haven’t lost my glasses once since I got this.” —Bianca

Promising review: “I love this SO MUCH. I embrace my inner snail every time I wash my face. It’s soft but not too fluffy and thick. It has a nice stretch, but it’s also not too loose where I feel like it’s falling. Buy some for you and your snail friends :)” —sam

Get it from Amazon for $5.99 (available in 15 colors).

13. A collapsible Magic Mushroom funnel because your cottagecore heart can’t refuse anything in the shape of a mushroom, especially when it’s practical AND adorable! Transfer liquids and ingredients spill-free while you whisk up your favorite mystical potions.

Amazon

Promising review: “I am obsessed with this funnel!!! I juice a lot of citrus and juices for cocktails, and this little guy is the perfect size for bottling. It’s beyond cute and really great quality. I’m always hesitant about buying silicone items, as I don’t want them to be too thin. This is perfect! Sturdy and cute! Can’t get better than that! The perfect addition to any cottagecore kitchen!” —Abbey Klem

Get it from Amazon for $14.95+ (available in two sizes).

Get it from Amazon for $18.95 (available in three styles).

16. Tonymoly’s octopus-shaped scrub stick to help remove whiteheads and blackheads *and* exfoliate your skin. You can just rinse it off with warm water when you’re done, so no need to buy those costly one-time-use pore strips.

Promising review: “I am always using super drying products on my face to target this annoying adult acne I now have, but that causes flaky skin. I have sensitive skin so there are only so many affordable store-bought scrubs I can use, and so far the ones I’ve tried don’t do enough or anything at all. The FIRST TIME I used this I literally watched my pores get cleaned out and my skin wasn’t irritated at all by the ingredients. The scent is very pleasant and not too strong at all I think. It seems like it will also last awhile because I really used the heck out of it the first day because it was working so well and my pores are deeply clogged. When I was done, my face looked SO much better and was super smooth; I was really amazed that this tiny little Tako could do that. I love this thing!” —Diane Delfino

Get it from Amazon for $12.50

17. lawn-style drying rack because there’s nothing wrong with adding a little whimsy to your kitchen counter. It may be advertised for baby bottles but reviewers also love it for their tumblers and coffee cups! Plus, it helps save counter space and holds cups and bottles upright so they can dry more efficiently. 

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Heather Braga has this rack: “We keep it next to our full-sized drying rack and as my son has gotten older we’ve also started using it to dry reusable food pouches (and all the pieces that go along with that) as well as his sippy cup and any teethers we’ve washed.” 

Promising review: “Newborn twins are a mess. They took over our house within moments of coming through the door. For this type A mama, it was a horrifying side effect of the two most precious things in the world. A friend gave us one lawn at our shower, and we promptly hopped on Amazon and bought a second to manage the sheer volume. The lawn and the accessories are a convenient and cute way to keep your bottles and pump parts organized. There is ample space in one for one baby’s needs.” —Lacey

Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in three styles).

18. A silicone night-light that seriously gives the infamous duck light a run for its money. It includes a remote with auto-shutoff functions, different color modes and choices, and brightness controls! 

It’s rechargeable via USB, and the battery lasts about 12 hours with continuous use.

Promising review: “I love this cute little guy. I struggle with insomnia and staying up waay too late in the dark, so this fellow was perfect for accompanying me when I can’t sleep. The 30-minute timer has worked well for me and to keep the battery long lasting.” —Guille

Get it from Amazon for $21.99 (available in 16 styles).

19. A decorative cat towel because it’s finally time to replace those bathroom and kitchen towels that haven’t been washed in a hot minute and look like they’ve been in a catfight.

Promising review: “I did not buy this to actually use as a towel. To me it doesn’t seem like it would be good at serving this purpose as the material is not very absorbent, however it is great for decoration purposes. It is really, really adorable! I love how there’s little snap buttons to keep it in place. I highly recommend this as a decorative gift for the cat lover in your life or for yourself if you love kitties! Great purchase!” —Crystal

Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in 37 designs). 

20. LivaClean Superstar pimple patches that are so cute, you might not even be that mad at the next pimple you get since you’ll have an excuse to put one of these bad boys on. They look just like Starface patches but for a fraction of the price — and reviewers say these work way better for shrinking blemishes and helping them heal!

Promising review: “I LOVE the look of pimple patches on myself (as weird as that sounds) and absolutely hate the semi-clear ones, since they just draw my eyes to something that’s SUPPOSED to be invisible. So I easily fell in love with the Starface pimple patches — but the issue with those is they’re SO expensive and don’t work at all. THESE, however, have immediately sucked everything out of my face. I love them and literally wear them all the time. So many people have complimented me, saying, ‘Oh my gosh, I love how you just wear stickers on your face; it’s adorable.’ These also work as [an alternative to] the TikTok Shop ones that are really popular right now and are cheaper! 10/10 from me :)” —evalyn evoke

Get a pack of 240 patches from Amazon for $7.99 (available in four designs/shapes as well as a six-pack).

23. A crab spoon rest so you never have to say “oh, crab” again when the handle of your plastic spatula melts while resting against the pan, or some of your soup drips on the counter while transferring to a dedicated spoon rest. It’ll give you a safe, mess-free spot to rest your cooking utensil! 

Promising review: “This is so cute AND useful to hold your stirring spoons. With the claws being silicone, they can expand to hold different thicknesses of spoon handles. The lower body of the crab detaches, allowing you to use the bottom claws to hold cooking utensils too! Love this kitchen tool!” —Catherine R. Yacola

Get it from Amazon for $16.95.

24. A tiger bath mat that is roaringly offbeat and sure to add some liveliness to your bathroom. It has a nonslip bottom and is super soft so your feet will be extra cozy post-shower.

Promising review: “My dog is obsessed with this bed. He loves how plushy and soft his new bed is. Whenever we get him for his morning walk, he is always curled up all snug in the bed. We also added some blankets since it’s cold out and we wanted him to be nice and cozy. The shark bed is really cute too, and the fins aren’t too large that my dog takes an interest in chewing them, so that was a bonus.” —Jocylin Belgica Bovet

It’s soft, colorful, and all of my guests love it! You will not regret buying this funky carpet. I can assure you, you are not going to be disappointed. I know that’s hard to believe because you don’t know me, but trust me, you’re going to want to buy this. Believe me.” —izzella

Promising review: “It’s half my height and it’s softer than I expected it to be. Takes up a good portion of my bed. It came inside a vacuum-sealed bag, and it fluffed up in seconds. It was not flat whatsoever. My dog thought it was real. 😂.Just took a nap with it. Very comfortable, especially when I sleep in the fetal position.
