Promising review: "This is so cute and practical. It can be used as a decoration or makeup mirror. The mirror is good quality." —Pattie S.

Get it from Amazon for $9.90.

Promising review: "These are amazing!!! Bought these as a stocking stuffer for my 12-year-old son. They are so bright they light up the entire room. A little thick for a true utensil/chopstick but still functional. They are strong, smooth edges so they are not uncomfortable or sharp when eating and have a nicely balanced weight. Plus there is an on and off button so you can save the battery. Any Star Wars fan will have a blast with these. Eating is now so much cooler — if you can stop playing with them long enough to put food in your mouth." —Nicole D'Amico

Get it from Amazon for $12.97 (available in two styles).

Promising review: "This is the third brand of semi-cured gel nail polish strips I have tried, and these are by far the best quality. I don't know why it does not have only 5-star reviews. The strips are easy to apply, appropriately thick, cure very hard, and last easily 10 days. They are also the shiniest of the gel nail polish strips I have used as well. These are so superior to the other ones that I have. I will be purchasing more strips in different colors rather than use out the strips that I already have. These just look so much better." —Anna G.

Get a pack for $13.50+ (available in soooo many colors/patterns).

It can alternate between seven different colors.

Promising review: "This is so cute!!! The battery lasts long enough. I got it two weeks ago and have used it every night since then. Haven't recharged yet and it works fine! A light tap can turn it on, and the light is perfect for bedtime!" —Luy

Get it from Amazon for $15.19+ (available in two designs and with or without a remote).

Promising review: "I bought these pillows to liven up my office space. They are whimsical and fun. The larger pillows would be great to set on the floor and sit with children or pets! Love these." —lovetoread

Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in twelve colors and three sizes).

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 $14.26+ (available in 28 designs).

Promising review: "This mask is so fun and really feels like it deep cleans. It bubbles up a lot and will make you feel like the Michelin Man LOL — but it works great especially with deep cleaning your pores. My 5-year-old loves wearing this mask and watching it bubble — and it doesn't irritate her sensitive skin, which is great. I too have sensitive skin and have had no problems at all with this mask. It does get a bit tingly when it's bubbling but in a good way. This mask is great for girls night as it's hilarious watching it bubble up on everyone. The price is great for the amount of product you get, just be careful and apply very, very lightly on the forehead and around the nose as it does bubble up thick and will go up your nostrils. Very happy with this purchase and will definitely buy again." —Jess

Get it from Amazon for $9.97.

Promising review: "It's big but so cute. Honestly it might even just work as cute decor to place around the house 🪩 but either way I love it." —Briannananna

Get it from Urban Outfitters for $20 (available in silver and pink).

Kaylie Reads is a New Hampshire-based small business that creates handmade pressed flower bookmarks.

Promising review: "Love this! I asked her to incorporate burgundy, yellow and white flowers with her own twist and she did exactly that. Shipping was faster than expected, packaging was so cute and she even threw in a cute book sticker- highly recommend!" —Etsy User

Get it from Kaylie Reads on Etsy for $12.99 (available in five styles, with or without tassels, and in customizable color schemes).

I love this little appliance! It heats up fast, it cooks the waffle batter in minutes, and it barely takes up any space in my cabinet. Fun tip: The waffles are the perfect size to use as the "bread" in a breakfast sandwich.

Promising review: "I bought three of these mini waffle makers by Dash after reading reviews and watching the product video. We absolutely love them! They are compact, and it heats up and cooks waffles quickly. We got them for our son's birthday to make a waffle bar, and they heat up so fast and cook the waffles perfectly. Only takes about a minute or two to cook a perfect waffle." —M Mom

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in 20 styles).

Check out an unboxing on TikTok!

Promising reviews: "I actually impulsively purchased this because I saw it on Tiktok. I have had it for a little over a month now, and it is actually the best item I have purchased in a while. I admit, there is a slight learning curve when setting it up because there is not a clear-cut instructions guide for all of the features, but once you figure it out, it's so worth it. It is really multifunctional and you can customize it to your liking. I really love the mini games feature on here, like Tetris and Snake, because they all bring back childhood memories for me. My favorite part is the fact that it works as a speaker and when I play music, I can have little videos sync to the music. Who knew a tiny little speaker could bring me so much joy. It is a bit pricy though, but it is just so cute. If you’re looking for a sign to buy this, here's your sign." —Khuyen Nguyen

Get it from Amazon for $89.91+ (available in five colors).

Badge Bomb is a small business based in Portland, Oregon, that makes the most adorable buttons, magnets, and more. The puzzle's art is designed by Gemma Correll, an artist, writer, and cartoonist who's originally from England but now lives in Orange, California, with her pug pups Mr. Pickles and Zander.

Promising review: "This is a fun puzzle, and it is very good quality. The pieces are sturdy and do not bend. The colors are bright and sharp. The pieces fit well together without issues. This puzzle will give you a very fun experience, and it's so cute you may even want to frame it to hang on the wall." —Mari N.

Get it from Badge Bomb for $20.

Promising review: "This is the best invention ever! I’m a sauce queen and this allows me to have sauce in my car without wasting it! Whoever invented this knows my love language!" —Quintana

Get a set of two from Amazon for $9.90+ (available in three colors).

This can hold two tacos, and reviewers say it holds hard-shell tacos the best.

Promising review: "OK, I realize this is kind of a ridiculous item in theory. More like a gag than an actual useful item, right? Wrong-o! I got one as a present and I loved it so much I had to buy one for my husband because he was envious. It's well-made, sturdy plastic so it stays upright and doesn't wobble. It holds two regular-sized crunchy tacos upright and ready to go. This way I can premake three tacos, one to eat and two for the dino to hold. The fillings in the dino tacos stay inside the tacos while I am eating the first taco. Juices sink to the bottom where they can soften the fold so the taco shell doesn't break in half after the first bite rather than leaking out all over your plate. Seriously, I love my TriceraTacos." —ChristinaG

Get it from Amazon for $14.99.

CasualChicken is a small business based in Irvine, California, that creates custom 3D printed art.

Promising review: "SO CUTE!! Looks exactly like the picture!! I also received a coupon for the shop after purchasing so that was very much appreciated." —Dominique

Get it from CasualChicken on Etsy for $9.99.

Get it from Amazon for $19.79+ (available in four colors).

Promising review: "I LOVE this night-light. It's in my bathroom and is a lovely addition. It turns off the second the lights go on which is nice that I don't have to worry about accidentally leaving it on. Super cute and the little itty-bitty lighting element does a good job lighting, just enough so I don't have to turn the main lights on in the middle of the night." —1Thand

Get it from Amazon for $5.97.

Promising review: "OK, this is the cutest coin purse I've ever seen. I have a friend who is obsessed with corgis and I don't blame her. Those floofy butts are too adorable. I can't wait to give this coin purse to her for Yule. She's going to love it." —Bunny

Get it from Amazon for $12.99.

Promising review: "I absolutely loved this product! it is very flexible and can be rolled up easily so I often use it when I travel. It provides great wrist support and I have never had any pain when typing with this on my laptop or my desktop. Also, it came in a fake bread bag as packaging, which immediately makes it a 10 out of 10 in my book." —Austin Adamson

Get it from Amazon for $14.99.

The battery-powered pearl light can be removed from the ceramic shell base and carried around, making this a great choice for children who like having a night-light nearby.

Promising review: "This is a pretty and unique light but be aware, the battery only lasts about 48 hours so I removed one star. It is quirky and unique mood lighting." —T3268

Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in two colors).

Promising review: "Amazing! I put them in hot chocolate, Rice Krispies treats, other cereals, or just eat then by the handful. Impulse buy that totally worked out." —Maddison Helsel

Promising review: "This tool is so handy!! I hate cutting watermelon, and this is so fast and easy to use and easy to wash. I cut a watermelon in less than five minutes. It cuts yellow watermelon too!!! The included baller is great for the small left over, hard to reach places." —Andrea Draine

Get it from Amazon for $12.37.

Brightech is a California-based small business that specializes in home lighting.

Promising review: "The light is nice! It's a unique looking light. I love how it has three different settings so you can adjust the brightness. It fits perfectly with my reading chaise and goes well with the rest of my living room decor. The only con I have is I wish the cord was clear instead of black, it sticks out. Other than that, I love the light. I’d definitely recommend it to others." —Carmelita Joy

Get it from Amazon for $79.99+ (available in four colors).

Check out this viral Lego flower bouquet in this TikTok from @shaelorend.

The bouquet includes 15 stems with a mix of flower and leaf varieties, including roses, snapdragons, and poppies, and it uses elements made from plant-based plastic.

Promising review: "Buy this for anyone in your life who loves gardening and you are guaranteed to see their face light up when they open it up. Got it for my mom on her birthday and she thought it was the coolest gift ever." —Greg

Get it from Amazon for $47.99.

The set includes one ice pop stand, six drip trays that double as the ice pop sticks, a collapsible funnel for getting the mixture into the ice pop holders, and a tiny cleaning brush.

Promising review: "This is a great purchase for the summer. The molds hold a good amount of ice pops' material and the little handles do a good job of pulling the pop out, with a little defrost help from a quick blast of warmish water on the outside. The handle has a little drip catch which would work great if my 18-month-old didn't just flip it upside down periodically. The little tray does snap the molds in, so the ice pops don't just tip over in the freezer. It does take up a fair amount of freezer real estate until they're frozen solid but no worse than most. It comes with a sort-of useful brush to scrub around the inside and an EXTREMELY useful funnel to help pour ice pop material into the mold. Overall, a good purchase." —Steel_muffins

Get them from Amazon for $11.99.

Promising review: "Otto fits right in. Exactly what I was looking for. Perfect as a footrest. Comes with little discs to put on the legs to even it out to keep it from wobbling. Took a little fiddling with but eventually got the legs level." —Panda

Get it from Amazon for $83.74.

Funboy is a family-owned small business based in Venice Beach, California, that makes giant-sized pool floats and other fun warm weather accessories.

Get it from Amazon for $59+ (available in 11 designs).

Promising review: "This is super cute, and the cats love it. I bought it to replace a much larger scratcher that lasted five years before it started shedding too much. I hope this will last just as long. These are full-grown, full-size cats (one of which is much 'fuller' than average), and the size is perfect. The openings on each size are quite generous. Lots of fun!" —Paula L

Get it from Amazon for $79.95 (available in three colors).

Promising review: "I got this as a birthday present for my husband, the classic man who's impossible to buy for, and he was thrilled with it. He's a by-the-numbers kind of guy, and followed the directions carefully. As a result, all six of the herbs have germinated, and we are already using some of them (basil, thyme and dill) only three weeks later. One thing: the light is much brighter than I expected. The pictures show it as a pleasant glow, almost a night light. It's bright. The timer keeps it on for 15 hours a day, so hopefully there's a place in your house where it won't reflect off the TV screen or light up somebody's bedroom." —Mary B.

Get it from Amazon for $79.95+ (available in three colors and two sizes).

Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE this! My kids do as well. It changes light colors. The bubbles look so magical at night and even more beautiful in the day. So many bubbles. You do have to refill it quite a bit, BUT ALL THE BUBBLES! So worth the impulse buy!!" —Jordan Farris

Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in four colors).

Promising review: "Looks incredible! Pretty futuristic. I just love this things. It's tricky to get it floating, but once you get the hang of it it's extremely easy to put it in place." —JOSE O. GARCIA A

Get it from Amazon for $65.99 (available in three styles).

Remi Brixton is the founder of OG faux-freckle cosmetic company Freck Beauty. Her small brand is a clean, vegan makeup line based in Los Angeles, California. Remi, along with the team behind Freck Beauty, is known for creating an attitude: products made for anyone who cares about ingredients, respects the process, but doesn't care about the rules.

My BuzzFeed colleague Jasmin Sandal is a fan. Here's what she has to say:

"I consider myself *blessed* to have been able to try out this powerful, feels-so-good-on-the-skin beauty product. It comes in three highly pigmented shades that complement different skin tones. And depending on the occasion, all three really do work for my darker complexion. Big Bang features a green/gold shimmer, Beam Machine a bronze/pink, and Space Face has a violet/purple hue. I like to think Beam Machine is perfect for an everyday glow, Big Bang for a fancy dinner party, and Space Face for when I know I'm going out out."

Get it from Sephora for $21 (originally $28; available in three shades).

Promising review: "This game has provided many hours of fun for family. The first day I received this, my son and husband played for four hours straight. It is a super competition and makes you think several moves ahead. Best money I have spent in a long time. The game is constructed well." —D McCormick

Get it from Amazon for $69.99.

Lilly's Kloset is a Black woman–owned, Houston-based small business!

Promising review: "I have to admit I haven't wore them yet but I have tried them and they are comfortable. The heel is not too high so I will be able to wear it all night without being uncomfortable. They are unique — the little flower on the heel is what sold me. Can't wait to wear them and show them off." —Iris-kelly K.

Get it from Lilly's Kloset for $68 (available in women's sizes 5.5–11).
