Hally — an at-home hair kit with a fun ’90s vibe that offers everything you need to unwind and try a new hair style. The ultra-gentle formula (ammonia-free, baby) lets you make a subtle ‘do change without worrying about frying your poor hair.
Rebecca O’Connell / BuzzFeed, Hally
It comes with under-eye gels and stress putty so you can take a screen break while you let the dye do its thing. I tried the rose gold option and loved it! It comes with really cute orange and purple hair clips, and I actually used the putty instead of just staring at my phone for 30 minutes. The dye comes as a foam so it’s easy to distribute over your hair. Tip: Use the entire bottle to make sure your hair is completely saturated. You can click through to see how the colors would look in your hair. Since my hair was dirty blonde, the result is a slightly lighter blonde with a pink tint. It’s nice and subtle!
Get it from Hally for $25 (available in ash blonde, miky brown, and pinky blonde).

CND SolarOil Nail & Cuticle Care to repair peeling and painful nails, so you can find relief after doing the unspeakable and peeling off a gel manicure.
Promising review: “So, I have been using this product for about a month. I apply it every night before I fall asleep so the oil has a chance to really get absorbed. I have not used with any other products. Similar to another reviewer, my nails chip, like all the time. Especially, index and middle fingers on both hands. For years, I have tried strengthening polishes, salves, and lotions but nothing worked, until now. I am happy to say that this really stopped the chipping. Only one of my nails has any indication that chipping was an issue. Thank you so much!” —Angela Wills

An Emilia George pastel face mask to bring some spring to your life, even if that pesky groundhog said we have six more weeks of winter.
Amazon
I love this mask! The fabric is nice and breathable, and the color is beautifully vibrant. There’s a built-in nose wire for a close fit, which is a must for glasses wearers. It machine washes well and dries fairly quickly. Thanks to its ties, it’s easy to adjust the size — handy when you’re doubling up on masks! (Learn more about the new CDC guidelines.)
Type Of Fit: Tie-String
Pocket For Filter: No
Fabric Type: Cotton
Shipping Time: Immediately

A container of oatmeal paw butter that’ll soothe and relieve your dog’s cracked, dry paws. Its eco-friendly formula is pH-balanced so it’s safe for cats, even if licked or swallowed. *seriously considers licking it myself to see if it really tastes like oatmeal*
Promising review: “I’ve tried everything on my Australian shepherd’s paws. He licks his paws when they get dry which makes them drier. The vet told me to use coconut oil, he just licked that off. I don’t think he liked the taste of the paw butter so he left it on and by the next morning, I saw a significant improvement.” —C. Castro
Get it from Amazon for $7.59.

A jewelry cleaning pen so your jewels can shine bright like a — well, a diamond.
Promising review: “Don’t get me wrong — my wedding ring was gorgeous before. It did sparkle and still made me smile every day. However…after using this Diamond Dazzle Stik…*oh my goodness*! After one use my ring is absolutely breathtaking! I knew my ring got dirty now and then, simply from sweating and being outside in the elements. However, I never realized just how much dinge and schmutz marred my diamond until I cleaned it. It literally took my breath away with its fiery, dazzling brilliance!” —liltreeclimber

Dental cleaning tablets to clean your retainer, dentures, or mouth guard in under 30 minutes. Say goodbye to that gross toothbrush you used to use every morning.
I originally bought these for my mouth guard but I use these tablets to clean…basically everything! They help get rid of mold on my toothbrush holder, clean out small glasses, and even helped banish super-caked on sauce from a pan. It’s basically a miracle worker.
Promising review: “Bought this based on the reviews and I gotta say it 100% works. I had my Invisalign retainers for 10 years and was placing them in a cup of water with mouthwash. Over time, the retainers got gunked up and started turning my retainers with a brown tint that couldn’t be removed even with brushing. I was thinking about replacing my retainers until I came across this product and gave it a shot. At first, the first tablet did clean it some and removed a lot of the brown tinting from my retainers. But after a couple of my uses, my retainers are crystal clear again. It removed 10 years of filth in a couple of treatments. I highly recommend this product if you want to keep your retainers clean.” —Herman L.

LED stick-on lights so you can feel like a Hollywood star every time you sit down to do your complicated 15-step skincare. It takes so long, it’s basically a movie (starring you).
Promising review: “Best idea ever! I’m living in an old house with only one outlet in the bathroom so I needed a lot of light with just one outlet. This is the perfect solution. You can arrange the bulbs as you wish, you can set the distance between them and the dimming option is awesome! Dimmed for baths and super light for makeup. When it is on max it is really bright. The back of the bulbs are adhesive and they are sticking very well.” —Annamarie T.

Promising review: “Love this mascara! I’ve used the ‘best of the best’ designer, super hyped, ultra popular mascara available and NOTHING compares to this stuff! I don’t even bother using a lash curler anymore! I buy two at a time so I always have a spare (yes, it’s that good!!). I highly recommend this particular mascara…it goes on effortlessly, it lasts pretty much all day, and the price — I feel like I’m almost stealing it! I’d give it 10 stars if I could!!!” —chulaboola

This works for all indoor and outdoors plants to encourage new growth. Just add seven drops to your watering can before watering.
Promising review: “I bought this for a money tree plant that my cat ate all the leaves and completely destroyed. The first pic was a week or so after using the fertilizer as recommended, on April 7, and the second is May 4. Of course I keep away from my cat at this point. Highly recommended fertilizer!” —Beth

A pop-up pee pad with a mini fire hydrant to give your pup a target while peeing inside.
Promising review: “The little fire hydrant pops up automatically when you unfold the pad, and it has a contrasting color that allows them to see it (while looking really cute). It’s the perfect size for a small dog to aim at, it’s absorbent so it doesn’t splash, and it’s small enough that dogs can share the pad without it getting in the way. I have two toy poodles, one boy and one girl. They boy would never make it onto the pad (and nearly ruined my floor) because he didn’t have anything to aim at. So I ended up creating my own hydrants out of cans of food wrapped in potty pads. They worked but it was a pain to create a new one each time I put out a new pad. This is so much better! I’m in love with these. Best of all, these are hands down some of the best quality potty pads I’ve ever used. Liquid jellifies almost instantly so they don’t track wet footprints on the floor, and they absorb the smell.” —A. Platter

Versed
Promising review: “I was a bit hesitant about purchasing because I was worried that it’s a bit too strong for my sensitive skin, but I decided to try out the travel size. I absolutely love it! It left my skin super soft after just one use and over the past month or so, I have noticed an improvement in the overall texture of my skin. I love it so much that I went back for the full size!” —IJAIN3403

A bumper bubble offering hours of backyard fun. Now you can run full speed into your family members WITHOUT getting a stern talking to.
Amazon
Promising review: “This bubble bumper is so fun and definitely needs a partner in crime to really experience the job of bumper bubbles. It is actually pretty heavy so you want to wear the straps and hold the handles. It takes a while to inflate it even with a compressor. It came with a patch and instructions. It is really well built and much more sophisticated in construction than the cheaper ones I have tried. Loads of fun running around in this and especially chasing a soccer ball.” —Sunshine Mel

A large over-the-sink rack that really saves you on counter space, which is worth more than gold if you’re working with a small kitchen.
Amazon
The compact but sizable rack can be adjusted based on the width of your sink (it stays in place with the aid of suction cups) and all of the parts can be disassembled and rinsed in the dishwasher.
Promising review: “This purchase turned out to be one of things I didn’t know I needed until I had it. It functions as not only an over-sink drying rack, but also a cutlery holder, kitchen utensil holder, and a utility cleaning holder that can be used for cleaning supplies and brushes etc. The product is sturdy, the legs have suction cups so that it doesn’t slide. It seems fairly durable in my nearly week of usage, and its fairly configurable. All of the different sections can be placed in different spots to fit the aesthetic and function of whatever kind of kitchen you’ve got. It does come disassembled (the main truss) so there are some screws and washers and instructions on how to put it together, a process which took 10 minutes. Surprisingly good purchase, well worth the cost. I have so much free space now.” —Darrel Pendergrass
Get it from Amazon for $79.95.
Promising review: “I have super fine hair with lots of breakage. No matter how I put my hair up I have bad flyaways. This stuff is great! So easy and it stays better and looks smoother than stiff hair spray.” —Jill Stilfield

A — get this — brick dyeing kit in case you just don’t like the color of the bricks you have now. This stuff chemically bonds with brick, stone, block, and mortar without ruining its wonderful texture.
Masonry cosmetics, what a concept!
Promising review: “I had a brick repair on the wall in the front of my house. They did not match the rest of the brick at all, and I was embarrassed every time I walked past it. When I bought my kit, I didn’t know what to do with it at first, but I got great service. One of the Masonry Cosmetics guys helped me. I sent him samples of the brick and pictures and he figured out the stain colors for me. He also noticed something that I never would have thought of on my own: the mortar color was wrong and had me fix that first. Fixing that was the icing on the cake. Great product and even better service.” —Gabe Williams
Get it from Amazon for $119.
