Daily planner with 'you've got this' mantra
A daily planner with a mantra you've definitely heard from your mom after complaining on the phone: You've got this!
“These daily planning sheets keep this mama on TRACK! I started out printing daily planning and schedule sheets from a free download on my computer. Then I realized why not just buy some already printed, so I save my ink at home. I found these and love how the day, schedule, tasks, and health habits are organized. I've already reordered once and will continue to use these.”
Solar Buddies sunscreen applicator
A refillable, BPA-free roll-on sunscreen applicator because it's the easiest way to keep hands clean when reapplying SPF.
“Used for the first time today on my 7-year-old. For the first time in his life, he actually enjoyed having sunscreen applied to his skin! Very easy to use and not messy at all. Extremely pleased with this purchase!”
Shark's Steam & Scrub mop
A mop that scrubs 150 times per minute to get cleaner, shinier floors without back-breaking effort, thanks to its automatic rotation. It works on hardwood, marble, tile, AND stone floors.
“I love this scrub mop. I had been looking for a mop to up my cleaning game, but i wanted something that was easy to use, chemical-free, and actually made cleaning quick and easy. As a mom of three kids under the age of six, this last one was essential. I'm so impressed with how quick and easy it is to clean with this thing.”
Flat-laying toiletry bag
A flat-laying toiletry bag so you can see everything you packed with a simple glance. It folds out wide once unzipped but packs super compactly, so you still conserve some space in your bag.
“My new favorite travel bag for makeup products. Has plenty of compartments for makeup and skincare. The middle has a little velcro clear pocket that i use for brushes; this way, i don't get powder/foundation all over the bag. Folds easily, holds a lot, does not take a lot of space in a bag, so you can pack it in a carry-on or backpack.”
Febreze Unstopables car freshener
A car freshener that neutralizes odors from fast food trips to smelly shoes after school, just clip it onto your AC vent for a fresh smell.
“These are great and pretty strong. I made the mistake and tried another scent after using these, and you have no idea how much i'm still regretting it. The scent lasts long after the oil inside is done, and it hits you as soon as you open your door, without being overbearing.”
Hair-removing glove for pets
A hair-removing glove to help get rid of shedding while giving your furry child some pets.
“The glove is super comfortable and using it couldn't be more foolproof: just put it on and run your hands through your pet's fur. That's it! The silicone grooves pick up so much fur with ease. Like, my dog looks close to hairless. HOW is he shedding so much!?”
Wet & Forget shower spray
A shower spray that eliminates soap scum, calcium buildup, and hardware stains without scrubbing, just spray it, wait 12 hours, and rinse.
“I saw this product on tiktok and decided to try it out for myself. The name doesn't lie, spray it on, shut the bathroom door, and in a few hours, the shower is 100 times cleaner. Usually, i'll let it sit overnight, and by morning, the visible grime on the shower is gone, including soap scum.”
Cosrx Snail Mucin 96% Power Repairing Essence
A skincare product with snail mucin that hydrates skin, heals acne, and smooths fine lines on all skin types.
“SNAIL SLIME?! ON MY FACE?! EW! That's what you might be thinking, but in reality, this product is AMAZING. I've been using this product for about a month, and shortly after it arrived, i had a bit of an acne breakout.”
Electric milk frother wand
An electric milk frother wand to instantly upgrade sad, boring cups of coffee with a layer of foam without the price tag or cleanup of bigger machines.
“Works wonderfully. Just heat the milk up in a microwave-safe cup or glass, then froth. I've been using this for tea lattes, and it's fantastic.”
Candle warmer
A candle warmer that provides scent without an open flame and four different brightness levels for light and fragrance.
“I purchased this candle warmer for myself a little over a year ago. Since then, i have purchased one for my mom and grandma. This candle warmer is gorgeous. Timeless. High Quality. And although i haven't had to change the bulb yet, i'm pleased it comes with a spare :)”
Quiet Levoit air purifier
A quiet Levoit air purifier that traps dust and reduces allergens, making your home smell fresh without the need to dust frequently.
“We retired to the southwest us, which is just a huge dust bowl. I didn't want to be breathing in the dust, and i absolutely hate to dust furniture. So i researched air purifiers and chose this model. In order to filter dust, it seems i needed a hepa filter, which this purifier uses.”
Catrice Instant Awake Under Eye Brightener
A color corrector that helps cancel out bluish eye bags your mom always clocks with a 'did you sleep at all last night?'
“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.”
Migraine relief cap
A migraine relief cap that can be chilled in the freezer or heated in the microwave to soothe throbbing pain and double as a sleep mask.
“I heard about it on tiktok, and i was skeptical. I put it in the freezer as soon as i got it in the mail. Then, out of nowhere, i felt a headache coming on. I pulled it out of the freezer, slipped it on, and passed out. When i woke up, my migraine was gone.”
Portable hanging luggage organizer
A portable hanging luggage organizer that streamlines packing so you can impress your mom with how fast you unpack for the week.
“I was able to pack seven outfits and have way more space in this organizer. I just packed the clothes in the organizer, closed it up, and placed it in my carry-on. Once i got to the hotel, i just hung it in my closet.”
SweatBlock wipes
SweatBlock wipes that block sweat and odor for up to seven days after a single use.
“For anyone who might be a skeptic, please allow me to put you at ease. If you have hyperhidrosis, meaning it can be 9 degrees outside and you're still sweating under your arms, this product has the potential to change your life.”
Renpho Volcanic Face Roller
A face roller with a volcanic stone to soak up excess oil without distributing makeup.
“I was shocked! This actually works. It takes the oil away without distributing the makeup. Game changer for me. I don't know why i didn't know about this sooner.”
Veggie chopper, slicer, and spiralizer
A veggie chopper, slicer, and spiralizer for quick meal prep without crying over diced onions.
“Makes life so much easier. I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. This requires very little effort to cut through the food, and it has a generous container.”
Standing desk anti-fatigue mat
A standing desk anti-fatigue mat that helps with leg and back fatigue after hours at your desk.
“Really nice mat, helps with leg and back fatigue. I stand up 50 percent of the time at my desk, and i can feel the difference in the two weeks i've had this product.”
Tennis shoe cleaner
A tennis shoe cleaner that works fast to make sneakers spotless and squeaky clean for leather, suede, and canvas.
“I have had my nike roshe runs for about a year now, and i don't go easy on them. I play sports and run in the dirt with them all the time, but i also like to wear them for fashion purposes. Pink miracle helped restore my daily shoes to look like i just bought them.”
Blackhead remover tool
A blackhead remover tool with four modes to lift gunk from pores and give skin a glow.
“Don't doubt it, a staple in skincare. I got this little device from a tiktok and decided to give it a try. I never knew i needed it until the first time i tried it. The vibrations magically bring up all the stubborn blackheads you can't reach with just your fingers.”
