NEW YORK: Former US president Jimmy Carter passed away. He was 100. He was a Nobel peace laureate and the oldest former US President. He had served as President from 1977 to 1981. He was 39th president of the USA. Carter became president after the Watergate corruption allegation and the Vietnam War shook American politics. Jimmy Carter died Sunday afternoon in Plains town, Georgia, according to the organization he founded, The Carter Center. He was also a groundnut farmer before becoming president. He breathed his last with all his family members nearby. US President Joe Biden said that an extraordinary leader, philanthropist and statesman has been lost. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002. Although he was diagnosed with cancer, he survived and had health problems including melanoma that spread to his liver and brain. Carter, the Democratic candidate, won the presidency by defeating Gerald Ford. But lost to Ronald Reagan in 1981. Carter's wife Rosalynn of 77 years died on November 19, 2023 at age 96. He is survived by four children three sons and a daughter.Trump has flip-flopped on abortion policy. His appointees may offer clues to what happens nextBy CHRISTINE FERNANDO CHICAGO (AP) — As Donald Trump’s Cabinet begins to take shape, those on both sides of the abortion debate are watching closely for clues about how his picks might affect reproductive rights policy in the president-elect’s second term . Trump’s cabinet picks offer a preview of how his administration could handle abortion after he repeatedly flip-flopped on the issue on the campaign trail. He attempted to distance himself from anti-abortion allies by deferring to states on abortion policy, even while boasting about nominating three Supreme Court justices who helped strike down the constitutional protections for abortion that had stood for half a century. In an NBC News interview that aired Sunday, Trump said he doesn’t plan to restrict medication abortion but also seemed to leave the door open, saying “things change.” “Things do change, but I don’t think it’s going to change at all,” he said. The early lineup of his new administration , including nominations to lead health agencies, the Justice Department and event the Department of Veterans Affairs, has garnered mixed — but generally positive — reactions from anti-abortion groups. Abortion law experts said Trump’s decision to include fewer candidates with deep ties to the anti-abortion movement could indicate that abortion will not be a priority for Trump’s administration. “It almost seems to suggest that President Trump might be focusing his administration in other directions,” said Greer Donley, an associate law professor at the University of Pittsburgh School of Law. Karen Stone, vice president of public policy at Planned Parenthood Action Fund , said while many of the nominees have “extensive records against reproductive health care,” some do not. She cautioned against making assumptions based on Trump’s initial cabinet selections. Still, many abortion rights groups are wary, in part because many of the nominees hold strong anti-abortion views even if they do not have direct ties to anti-abortion activists. They’re concerned that an administration filled with top-level officials who are personally opposed to abortion could take steps to restrict access to the procedure and funding. After Trump’s ambiguity about abortion during his campaign, “there’s still a lot we don’t know about what policy is going to look like,” said Mary Ruth Ziegler, a law professor at the University of California, Davis School of Law. That approach may be revealed as the staffs within key departments are announced. Trump announced he would nominate anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the Health and Human Services Department, which anti-abortion forces have long targeted as central to curtailing abortion rights nationwide. Yet Kennedy shifted on the issue during his own presidential campaign. In campaign videos, Kennedy said he supports abortion access until viability , which doctors say is sometime after 21 weeks, although there is no defined timeframe. But he also said “every abortion is a tragedy” and argued for a national ban after 15 weeks of pregnancy, a stance he quickly walked back. The head of Health and Human Services oversees Title X funding for a host of family planning services and has sweeping authority over agencies that directly affect abortion access, including the Food and Drug Administration and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. The role is especially vital amid legal battles over a federal law known as EMTALA, which President Joe Biden’s administration has argued requires emergency abortion access nationwide, and FDA approval of the abortion pill mifepristone. Mini Timmaraju, president of the national abortion rights organization Reproductive Freedom for All, called Kennedy an “unfit, unqualified extremist who cannot be trusted to protect the health, safety and reproductive freedom of American families.” His potential nomination also has caused waves in the anti-abortion movement. Former Vice President Mike Pence , a staunch abortion opponent, urged the Senate to reject Kennedy’s nomination. Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the national anti-abortion group Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, said the group had its own concerns about Kennedy. “There’s no question that we need a pro-life HHS secretary,” she said. Fox News correspondent Marty Makary is Trump’s pick to lead the FDA, which plays a critical role in access to medication abortion and contraception. Abortion rights groups have accused him of sharing misinformation about abortion on air. Russell Vought , a staunch anti-abortion conservative, has been nominated for director of the Office of Management and Budget. Vought was a key architect of Project 2025 , a right-wing blueprint for running the federal government. Among other actions to limit reproductive rights, it calls for eliminating access to medication abortion nationwide, cutting Medicaid funding for abortion and restricting access to contraceptive care, especially long-acting reversible contraceptives such as IUD’s. Despite distancing himself from the conservative manifesto on the campaign trail, Trump is stocking his administration with people who played central roles in developing Project 2025. Trump acknowledged that drafters of the report would be part of his incoming administration during the Sunday interview with NBC News, saying “Many of those things I happen to agree with.” “These cabinet appointments all confirm that Project 2025 was in fact the blueprint all along, and the alarm we saw about it was warranted,” said Amy Williams Navarro, director of government relations for Reproductive Freedom for All. Dr. Mehmet Oz , Trump’s choice to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, is a former television talk show host who has been accused of hawking dubious medical treatments and products. He voiced contradictory abortion views during his failed Senate run in 2022. Oz has described himself as “strongly pro-life, praised the Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade , claimed “life starts at conception” and referred to abortion as “murder.” But he also has echoed Trump’s states-rights approach, arguing the federal government should not be involved in abortion decisions. “I want women, doctors, local political leaders, letting the democracy that’s always allowed our nation to thrive to put the best ideas forward so states can decide for themselves,” he said during a Senate debate two years ago. An array of reproductive rights groups opposed his Senate run. As CMS administrator, Oz would be in a key position to determine Medicaid coverage for family planning services and investigate potential EMTALA violations.

In the continuing saga of billionaires and big rockets comes Amazon founder Jeff Bezos with his latest space vehicle, New Glenn. The rocket, which stands taller than the Statue of Liberty, is named after NASA astronaut John Glenn, the first person to orbit Earth in 1962. Though much shorter than SpaceX 's towering Starship , it is about the size of NASA's mega moon rocket, the Space Launch System . Years in the making, the commercial rocket is on the verge of its maiden flight. On Friday, while strapped firmly to its launchpad in Cape Canaveral, Florida, New Glenn nailed its final dress rehearsal, firing all seven of its engines for 24 seconds. It was the first time Bezos' company, Blue Origin, had operated the entire stacked rocket as an integrated system. Flashes from the engines pierced through billows of steam, like cracks of lightning amid storm clouds. "Next stop launch," said Bezos in a post on X, the social media platform owned by his space launch competitor, Elon Musk . Despite their rivalry, Musk replied with a wish for godspeed. A video of the test, called a hot fire, can be watched in the above post. The demonstration involved a complete fueling and practice countdown. New Glenn's booster runs on methane and liquid oxygen, while the second stage of the rocket, which propels a spacecraft further into space, runs on liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen. When all seven booster engines are firing in concert, they produce enough horsepower for two Nimitz-class aircraft carriers at full tilt, said David Limp, Blue Origin's CEO. For 13 seconds of the hot fire test, New Glenn was operating at 100 percent of its thrust capacity. Bezos started Blue Origin in 2000, but its first small rocket, New Shepard, has primarily focused on space tourism, providing short flights for wealthy passengers to the cusp of space and back. Star Trek actor William Shatner, one of the most familiar space figures in pop culture, became a real space traveler in October 2021. But the company has aspirations to do much more. It's building a lunar lander for NASA, to be named Blue Moon , that will perform several uncrewed test flights with the New Glenn rocket, before ferrying Artemis V astronauts from lunar orbit to the surface of the moon. It's also building a commercial space station, dubbed Orbital Reef . NASA awarded Blue Origin a $130 million contract to build it as the U.S. space agency tries to transition to a new model of space research, wherein businesses own and operate space labs in low-Earth orbit and NASA becomes one of their many customers. Just prior to Friday's test, the Federal Aviation Administration issued Blue Origin a launch license for New Glenn, its final administrative approval. Though the company hasn't yet announced when it will attempt a liftoff, an FAA operational advisory indicates a tentative plan of a launch window opening at 11:30 p.m. ET on Dec. 31, with a backup window at the same time on New Year's Day. "Well, all we have left to do is mate our encapsulated payload...and then LAUNCH!" Limp said on X . "Congrats to the many Blue folks on today's test." Blue Origin will attempt to use a sea-based landing platform, named Jacklyn, to save New Glenn boosters. The license allows Blue Origin to launch New Glenn from the Space Force station at Cape Canaveral, as well as land its reusable booster on a barge in the Atlantic Ocean. That sea-based landing platform, named Jacklyn , is one of the largest remotely operated vessels in the world. The company hopes to be able to reuse a single booster at least 25 times. Reusability is an important facet of the burgeoning commercial space industry, significantly lowering the cost per launch. Blue Origin wanted to get to this point months ago. The inaugural flight was slated for October, which would have included two Mars orbiters built by Rocket Lab for NASA. Had New Glenn launched then, the twin spacecraft would have taken advantage of the planetary alignment that shortens the travel time to the Red Planet, an average of 140 million miles away from Earth. NASA and Blue Origin are now in talks for a potential launch for that mission, known as Escapade , no earlier than spring 2025.SMALLRIG AWARDS LAUNCHES THE GLOBAL FILMMAKER TALK SERIES WITH 2024 CANNES BEST DIRECTOR MIGUEL GOMES

Senate spokesperson, Senator Adeyemi Adaramodu, hinting on the passage, explained that the joint committee on appropriation of the two chambers of the National Assembly would present their report on the N49.7 trillion 2025 Appropriation Bill for consideration and approval on January 31. The fiscal legislation was laid before the joint session of the federal legislature by President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday, December 18. The red and the green chambers, at their separate plenary sessions on December 19, passed the money bill for second reading after the federal lawmakers debated its general principles. The National Assembly subsequently adjourned plenary to January 14, to enable the legislators to celebrate Christmas and New Year in their various constituencies. The development came barely 24 hours after the president laid the estimates before the National Assembly. President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, had before the upper chamber adjourned plenary on December 18, asked the Committee on Appropriation in the red chamber to work on the budget proposal within four weeks. Akpabio also informed his colleagues that they might be recalled from their holiday if the need arose. Investigation by THISDAY in Abuja, on Sunday, revealed that the leadership of the National Assembly had met and designed a timetable that would enable it pass the budget in the first week of February 2025. A copy of the timetable sent to each of the lawmakers, and sighted by THISDAY, also revealed that the joint National Assembly Committee on Appropriations would meet with Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr Wale Edun, on January 7, 2025 at 2pm. The meeting would also be attended by Minister of Budget and Economic Planning, Senator Atiku Bagudu, and Director-General of the Budget Office of the Federation, Tanimu Yakubu, among others. The floor would then be opened for the heads of the various ministries, departments and agencies (MDAs) of the federal government and their accounting officers to defend their budget estimates before the joint appropriation sub-committees of the federal legislature. The exercise, according to the timetable, would take place from January 8 to January 15, 2025. It revealed that the laying, presentation, and possible approval of the report by the appropriation committee would be on January 31, 2025, and subsequently passed first week in February. Adaramodu, in an interview, said the subcommittees on appropriation had been directed to start engaging the MDAs from January 8. “Full activities on the 2025 Appropriation Bill will commence second week in January. The joint committees of Senate and House of Representatives will start meeting with MDAs on January 7. Final report will be laid on 31st January,” he stated.

Pillowy slippers that must have been made by the comfort gods themselves because over 700 reviewers say they're like walking on clouds ☁️ and as a proud owner of a pair myself, I wholeheartedly agree with that. I recently purchased a pair of these (but will not be including a pic because my feet are looking a lil' yeesh 😬 right now) and I swear it was the best purchase I've made this year — not to be dramatic or anything. I needed some summer shoes because I've been running errands in my Uggs, and in 90-degree weather...that's not very fun, to say the least. These babies are the softest things EVER; I'm not even exaggerating. Every step I take feels like I'm being cushioned by the spongiest cloud, and TBH, it's pretty freaking comforting. I wear them to run errands, during casual outings, and even on my hot girl walks! Promising review: "These are probably the most comfortable slippers I have ever worn. It's like walking on clouds. They are very soft but still give excellent support. When walking on hardwood or tile floors they are very quiet. No one will hear you coming. I purchased two pairs. One for me and one for my partner. We both love them and highly recommend them to anyone." — Robert Get them from Amazon for $20.35+ (available in women's sizes 4–16, men's sizes 3–14, and 15 colors). 2. An Owala FreeSip tumbler offering all the benefits of a Stanley without the spills. What sets this bb apart from all the other bottles out there is its spout — you can either drink through a straw or tilt it back to chug. Plus, you'll never have to painfully sip on a lukewarm bev again because it keeps drinks cold for up to 24 hours with its triple-layer insulation! Oh, and did I mention it was featured in Time's Best Inventions of 2023 !!! Promising reviews: "I've tried them all — cheap knock-offs and expensive ones like Stanley , Hydro Flask , and so many others — and this is hands-down the best water bottle!! I love that I can use it with the built-in straw or use it as a open water bottle just depending on how I tip it while drinking. It's seriously perfect. My husband has been using a Stanley for four years and switched to this after seeing mine. No more leaking, or spilling." — rowleypolie "Without a doubt everyone has heard the uproar over huge insulated cup brands using lead to make their cups. If that is a concern for you, then there is no need to worry about this one. This cup is made lead-free and works phenomenally! I always put ice in my Owala with my water and notice that all the ice is still there over a span of 48 hours and still freezing cold ." — DietDrKelp069 Get a 24-ounce tumbler from Amazon for $25.55+ (available in 22 colors and three other sizes). 3. A set of kinda genius soda can covers if you're the type of person who simply can't finish a drink (guilty). Instead of dumping a half-filled can of Bubly into the sink, just snap on one of these lids and you'll have a still-carbonated drink left to enjoy later! Promising review: "Very solid product. It does exactly what it claims to do. It snaps on to any can I have easily, then opens and closes shut again for storage in my fridge. As you can see in my pictures, it’s leakproof when closed . I think it will be a great addition to my kitchen." — w_starling Get a six-pack from Amazon for $10.99 (also available in a multicolor style and other pack sizes). 4. Anua heartleaf pore-clearing cleansing oil that dissolves makeup residue, blackheads, and excess sebum *without* clogging pores or over-drying skin. Reviewers say that they could actually see the oils and gunk leaving their face — kinda gross, very satisfying, and a major slay. BTW, a lot of reviewers say they use this as part of their double cleansing routine. As the name implies, double cleansing is a method of cleansing your face twice: first with an oil-based cleanser, and again with a water-based cleanser to help get all the yucky stuff out of your pores. Promising review: "This is my first time ordering an oil-based cleanser and I’m so glad I purchased this one. I originally saw this product on TikTok and wanted to see what the hype was all about. After using the cleanser on my dry face for 2–3 minutes, I could visibly see my white- and blackheads on my fingers. I was a little hesitant to try oil cleansing because I have acne-prone skin, however, my face has never looked better. After each use, my face is as soft as a baby's bottom and my scarring doesn’t look as deep! The cleanser has a light clean scent. Not super strong! I am currently pairing this cleanser with the Anua Heartleaf soothing toner to achieve glass skin. #glassskinera" — Myshel Cagle Get it from Amazon for $13.90 . 5. And 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 . The scent is very pleasant and not too strong at all I think. It seems like it will also last a while 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 . 6. The Pink Stuff , aka the Swiss Army knife of cleaning products because it can do it all. You can literally scrub your house from top to bottom with this jar of miracle paste and make everything ✨ sparkle ✨ once again. You got dirty grout? Gone. Grease? Good riddance. The caked-on gunk at the bottom of your cast-iron pan that seems impossible to get rid of? Buh-bye!!! Promising reviews: " Where has this been all my life! This stuff really gets the job done! I haven’t found another product that cleans this well. Especially that stubborn scum in the shower, it came right off with this! The smell is fine, and a little bit goes a long way so you get your moneys worth. I like that it is pink obviously because I’m just a girl but I have been super happy with this product since trying it." — michaela harvey " This stuff is some magic sorcery. I’m not usually a fan of traditional cleaning products and tend to opt for natural based cleaners. However, I had some soot over the fire place nothing would take off. Not only did it do a pretty dang good job on that... everything I’ve tried it on has gotten that item super clean with minimal scrubbing effort. Will always have on hand now. Got hard water stains off when CLR wouldn’t even get it clean and made the faucet look brand new" — Kim Montero Get it from Amazon for $5.49 . 7. An ice tray so you can enjoy a fancy glass of Diet Coke with some spherical ice. Plus, reviewers recommend adding some fruit for a refreshing treat! This set comes with two trays, a bin, and a scooper. Each tray makes 33 spheres! Promising review: " This ice tray set is a GAME CHANGER . Worth every penny. I hit a wall with my ice trays always breaking, being hard to get ice out of, and emptying too quick. I splurged on this set and am really impressed. I already have a bin (which it comes with) full of ice and two backups freezing. And the little scoop is fun as heck. Highly recommend if you don't have an ice maker!" — Kascidy Badon Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in two sizes, four colors, and a two-pack). 8. And a silicone tumbler ice-shaped tray because you love your agua ice cold, but your straw says "no, not today" to going all the way in when you use ice cubes. The mold includes three different sizes, so you'll be able to make ice for any tumbler and even stack the cubes if you'd like to! Check out a TikTok of the tumbler ice tray in action. Promising review: "I swear this is the best thing ever made I was so tired of having to break the ice so I could stick my straw in my cup. I love it and even showed my bestfriend and she bought one!" — Craig Bivens Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in five colors and two sizes). 9. Sol De Janeiro Bum Bum Cream that helps smooth and tighten skin with its caffeine and guaraná extract formula. Reviewers rave about how it helps reduce the appearance of stretch marks (if that's something you're looking to address — but remember you look fab 🎶 just the way you are 🎶)! Plus, it has a pistachio, salted caramel, and vanilla scent...oops, that just made my mouth water. Caffeine is an antioxidant that can brighten skin complexion and temporarily reduce stretch marks and cellulite appearance, if that's something you want to do. Read more about the skincare benefits of caffeine at the Cleveland Clinic ! Promising review: "Y'all. This stuff smells like heaven . Somehow this scent is appropriate for summer and winter at the same time. It absorbs quickly with no sticky feelings afterward . The one thing that might deter some people from buying it is that there is a shimmer to it. Once I've used it on my hands, I notice that in sunlight, my skin has a bit of a glimmer. I personally love this and can't wait to use this lotion during the summer. I think it's 100% worth the high price tag. When I can summon up the will to spend the money, I'll be buying the body wash , spray , and full-sized lotion as well; currently, the mini lotion stays in my purse." — Elizabeth Get it from Amazon for $24 . 10. An eyelash comb to separate your lashes when your mascara clumps up after applying. Just brush this through a few times, and you're good to go! Promising review: "No matter how good the brand/wand is, even a brand-new mascara will leave clumps behind. Once applied, mascara dries too fast. This tool easily glides through lashes to remove clumps." — John Get it from Amazon for $3.99 . 11. A Saem hydrating eye stick that helps reduce the appearance of dark circles, lines, and puffiness using ingredients like Icelandic glacial water, moss and seaweed extracts, and niacinamide — all without oils. If you feel like *nothing* gets rid of those all-nighter eye bags, this might just be your savior. For a top-notch experience, use after refrigeration to help better reduce puffiness! It also can help tighten the appearance of eye wrinkles if you'd prefer for them not to be as noticeable. Promising review: "I have always had bags and dark circles under my eyes and have tried sooooo many things. I was skeptical that this would work, but oh. my. goodness. This little stick is amazing. The puffiness was gone. Dark circles, still there some but definitely not as bad. It also smells really nice and absorbs instantly. Plus, the container is cute. I highly recommend to anyone else who has tried all the things and been disappointed. " — HeartsUnfold Get it from Amazon for $9.90 . 12. A bottle-emptying cap because the struggle to get out every last drop from a bottle is so real (*cries in wasted shampoo*). Attach it to any lid, flip it, and let gravity do the rest for you. See one TikToker's positive review here ! Each kit includes three adapters in different sizes to fit pretty much any bottle. Promising review: "Well worth it! Think of all the product in bottles you waste every year by not using something like this . It certainly covers the cost of this item! I love it!" — Rock360 Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in two colors and in multipacks). 13. A ChomChom pet hair remover with over 138,000 5-star ratings (!!!), and over 5,000 of them call it "the best," a word that shall not be taken lightly. It's like a reusable lint roller ( without those annoying sticky papers) and designed to pick pet hair up efficiently — once fur is locked in, it doesn't go anywhere until you empty it out! Promising review: " If I could give this product 6 stars, I would. My husband and I use it almost every day. We have three furry dogs and six fluffy cats, which makes for A LOT of hair. We were using a lint roller before we bought our ChomChom roller. The lint roller didn't work very well and had to be replaced. We have had our ChomChom roller for months and it still works just as well as it did when we first got it. We can actually invite our friends over now without worrying about all the pet hair." — Morgan Willis Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in four colors). 14. An eye makeup remover so you can remove your eyeliner and mascara with ease instead of taking a wipe to your eyes and rubbing them until a few of your lashes fall out. Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Melanie Aman has to say about it: "This stuff is MAGICAL. I have stick-straight Asian lashes that refuse to hold a curl with wetter mascara formulas. As a result, I have to use waterproof mascara, which is a total pain to remove at night. Instead of rubbing my eyes raw with makeup removers that burn, I apply this like mascara, let it sit for a few minutes, and my waterproof mascara MELTS . Then I go in with a micellar water –soaked cotton pad, and my mascara is gone in 1–2 passes." Promising review: "I was skeptical because I have always struggled with removing waterproof mascara 100% on the first wash/wipe. I applied it to both my lashes and then immediately washed my face with my normal cleanser and I felt nothing on my lashes! Like I never applied anything to them. I am amazed and in shock still from this magical formula and invention! Best creation ever! " — Chrisy Get it from Amazon for $14.99 . 15. A stainless-steel skin spatula that gently scrapes all the gunk from your face. The vibration brings out blackheads, dirt, and oils from your pores, making them easy to remove. For less than $20, think about how much you'll save instead of going for a facial! Promising review: "I have very very deep blackheads to the point where you would think they are tiny freckles. I've tried all cleansers and then went with the blackhead suction tool and nothing helped. I used this thing ONE TIME and I can not believe the wonders that it has worked. Most of the blackheads were gone after 10 minutes of use. I also have very sensitive skin, but it didn't hurt or damage the skin whatsoever! I watched a YouTube review as I was doing it to make sure I was doing it correctly. Just buy it. I swear on this amazing creation!" — Kassi Miller Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in three colors). 16. A standing weeder so you don't have to hunch over in your garden for hours. Its three steel claws will grip the roots so you can pull out stubborn weeds at the source while standing upright — your back will thank you, and so will any nearby plants! Grampa's Gardenware Co. is an Oregon-based, family-owned small business. Promising review: "Oh my god, I friggin' love this tool. I bought this on a whim, given we bought our first house and know nothing about caring for a yard. Boy, has it come in handy. Our new house had a ton of weeds in the front yard, and this tool helped me get most of them out in no time. In fact, the process of yanking out the weeds was strangely satisfying! I don't think anyone can say that weeding is fun, but this tool made it as close to fun as you can get , especially when you see a long root along with the weed you pulled." — JG Get it from Amazon for $39.99 . 17. An incredibly helpful blind spot mirror because parallel parking and merging lanes can be such a pain. in. the. neck (yes, figuratively and literally). With these helpful lil' gizmos, you'll be able to save so much time trying to squeeze into that space *and* do it safely! It comes with an optional adjustable swivel base! Promising review: "I bought these for my mom's car and mine a while ago, and these little things are great. Since I got my license, I've hated merging or switching lanes; I never felt good or safe doing it. Since having these, it's been a blessing; I feel less like a scared new driver. I'm currently encouraging my sister and friends to invest in these too! These are also great for backing up because you can see exactly how close you are to hitting the car behind, and it's helpful when I parallel park in the city." — Mariam Abass Get a two-pack from Amazon for $6.59 (available in four shapes). 18. A hands-free pot stirrer that looks like it was invented in the future and transported here to be every busy person's savior. If you're making pasta or soup that requires a lot of "stir-age," just attach this gem to the side of the pot and let it do all the work while you handle other meal prep (or catch up on all the TikTok DMs your friends have sent you). Promising review: "I enjoy soups and puddings but hate to stand at the stove for 30 minutes or whatever making sure the milk doesn't burn. The StirMate solved my problem. I would recommend this item to everyone who cooks; what a great help in the kitchen." — Mary J Get it from Amazon for $78.98 . 19. A jewelry cleaning stick for restoring your old rings so they'll stay true to the lyrics ~shine bright like a diamond~. Save yourself a trip to the cleaner, because all you have to do is twist the bottom of the pen and brush the solution on. Lo and behold, your gem is as shiny as new! Promising review: "This little pen brush is incredible! I wasn't sure if it would work well on my emerald engagement ring, since it's mostly advertised for diamonds, but I thought I'd give it a try. I have been wearing the ring since getting engaged in October, and even though I had it cleaned at the jeweler's in April, it just didn't seem as bright as it was when it was new, and I thought it would just always be a little cloudy. But after cleaning it once with the Dazzle Stik, I was blown away by the difference — it looks as bright and sparkly as when I first got it! I'm so glad I didn't buy an ultrasonic cleaner, since this is so much less expensive and easier and gentler. It took me less than a minute to clean, and I can do it whenever I want! And it's honestly better than when the jeweler cleaned it. So thrilled!" — KFray Get it from Amazon for $9.48 (also available in multipacks). 20. A bottle of nail and cuticle care oil that can help renew your fingernails after years of nail biting or peeling off acrylics. If your nails are prone to cracking or peeling, the vitamin E and jojoba oil formula will help keep them hydrated and strong! Promising review: "I had peeling, weak nails for years. Tried everything. I bought this in February. This size bottle lasted a bit more than a month with me religiously applying it two to three times a day. I was really seeing great improvement, so I bought another bottle in late March. By May, all the peeling had grown out and my nails were getting stronger every day. I then bought the big 4-ounce refill bottle because I never want to run out of it again! Cannot recommend this stuff enough!" — Diana Get it from Amazon for $9.90+ (available in three sizes). 21. A pack of 40 acne patches so you can tackle that pesky pimple head on. These discreet patches help conceal pimples and prevent you from picking at them while the hydrocolloid absorbs the gunk inside — so they can actually heal faster! They're great for daytime or overnight use. BTW, these work *best* on open, draining pustules (rather than blackheads or pimples that haven't come to a head yet). You can read more at Cleveland Clinic ! Promising review: "I ordered these on a whim after a long day of isolation and internet browsing and because I have a terrible habit of picking at spots on my face and making them into something much much worse. These magical spots are life-changing!!! Put them on before bed (or before work) on clean skin and FORGET about them. You don't notice they're there — unless you go to pick at something and then YOU STOP!! Leave them in place for at least six hours and then peel them off. They come off easily (but not so easy that they come off while sleeping) and the amount of 'bleck' they suck out is amazing!!! So a spot that was going to erupt into Mount Vesuvius ends up being NOTHING!!!! I've purchased six packages and will keep buying them. An amazing value!" — Jennifer Nothdurft Get a 40-pack from Amazon for $8.49 and an eight-pack of the large patches for $8.99 . 22. Plus, nose pore patches that remove the grime and excess oil in your nose that are begging to be released. Just leave it on overnight and take it off in the morning to see all the goop and gunk it pulled out, plus your clearer, smaller pores. Promising review: "It had to be said. These things are disgusting, that's why you should buy them. Squeeze part of your nose skin. Do a bunch of little pustules come out? Yeah, if you put one of these puppies on at night, you wake up, and that is all trapped inside that weird film. I dunno how it works. It's probably sorcery." — Jack Sawyer Get a seven-pack from Amazon for $9.98 . 23. A foldable, slip-resistant "Sink Topper" if your sink is literally *just* a sink with zero counter space. Unfold this on top, and you'll finally have that much-needed room for all your skincare and makeup products so you can get ready in the morning (or wind down at night) with ease. Sink Topper is a small business that specializes in household-friendly organizing mats. Promising review: "I was introduced to this item through TikTok and they weren’t joking when they place certain videos on your 'For You Page,' because they knew that I NEEDED THIS. It is super helpful for small sinks and I love the material. It doesn’t slide around, it’s wide enough for all my (at the moment) bathroom needs and I can easily fold it up and take it anywhere with me." — Allie West Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in three colors and two sizes). 24. An in-flight foot hammock because as much as we want to be in first class (*sighs*), it's just not in the budget rn...but this is! This'll give your economy seat a little more pizzazz because you'll be able to rest your feet instead of awkwardly placing them around your personal bag — the struggle is real. Just attach it to your tray table and you'll be able to keep your feet elevated and not have to deal with swelling or soreness! Yay! Promising review: "I used this recently on an overnight flight to Europe. Definitely made me more comfortable to have my feet elevated off the floor (I'm 5'3"). It could have been a little wider (I have small size 7 feet). But it was ample enough and compact to travel with. It did not bother the person in front of me (I had it attached to my tray table). Glad I made the purchase, definitely felt like it gave my legs some relief." — daydoo72 Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in four colors). 25. A WD-40 pen so when your door hinge is making that squeaking sound that's borderline ~horror-movie eerie~, you can just go at it with the precise pen tip instead of bringing out that big ol' can of regular WD-40. No more squeaking or rusting here! Promising review: "I love WD-40 products and use them for everything. I spray on shovels to keep dirt or snow from sticking, spray around windows and thresholds to deter bugs, clean Sharpies off wood and walls, and, of course, stop squeaky doors. These small direct-point application pens are great. Keep one in the glove box, my kitchen 'junk' drawer, and the house toolbox." — BBP623 Get a three-pack from Amazon for $12.99 . 26. An easy-to-use collagen-coating hair mask to treat your dry and damaged hair that's been bleached, dyed, or heat-styled one too many times. Just massage it in, let the collagen and ceramide 3 formula work its magic, and rinse after 5–20 minutes to see some luxurious locks. Psst — it works for all hair types! Reviewers with straight to 4c hair use this hair mask and LOVE it. Read our Elizavecca CER-100 Collagen Coating Hair Protein Treatment review to learn more about why my colleague calls it "the miracle product I've been searching for." Promising review: "I have 4c hair and was looking for a protein treatment for my thin and fragile hair. I had recently used a product in my hair that had so much alcohol in it; that wreaked havoc on my hair, leaving it pretty damaged. I was very skeptical about this product because I have never seen anyone with my hair type use it. Boy was I wrong to doubt this product, it left my hair looking and feeling beautiful. I highly recommend it to anyone natural or with curly hair. " — Therese-Claire Get it from Amazon for $8.40 . 27. A DogBuddy pooper scooper so you no longer have to pick up that warm mush of a mess with a plastic bag that's a little too thin. You just have to take one of the doo doo bags and pull it over the scooper, grab the poop, and tie it up — easy peasy, and you'll be less queasy. Check out a TikTok of the DogBuddy scooper in action. DogBuddy is a small business specializing in pet care products including bowls, mats, and scoopers. Promising review: "I normally don’t leave reviews but this is amazing! It’s easy to use and saves so many dog bags if you’re taking a number of dogs on a walk because you don’t need to open a new bag for each poop. It also makes the whole process a lot less gross . I would 100% recommend this for dog walks and even picking up poop in the backyard. It holds a lot more than you’d think!" — Joslyn Cavitt Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in two sizes and four colors). 28. A carpet cleaner capable of removing everything from fabric surfaces, whether that be your tiny oopsies or your big *OOPS*. Now you'll be able to munch on your burrito without the fear of leaving a stain. Promising review: "It’s a miracle in a bottle. My German shepherd mix decided to pull a black fountain pen out of my purse and chew it to pieces on my beige carpet while I was sleeping — this cleaner lifted the stain and now it’s like the devastation my dog caused never happened! As soon as I saw it lifting the ink, I got back on Amazon and bought more bottles. I will never let myself run out of this. I use it in my Bissell carpet cleaner for some crazy good cleaning power. I’ve become that weird lady who goes around singing the praises of a cleaning product. No regrets." — L. Logan Get it from Amazon for $6.65+ (available in three sizes and various packs). 29. And a pack of stain-removing pads that don't require any scrubbing — what!? When you're halfway out the door to work and notice your puppy had a little accident on your brand-new carpet, just use one of these bad boys! Place it on the stain, give it a stomp to activate it, and the mess will be gone when you return. Promising review: "WOW! Honestly, I was a little skeptical of the promise of these pads, but I bought them just to try out. THEY WORKED AMAZINGLY WELL! Seriously. I have some stains that are 1.5–2 years old. I've tried everything to get them out. I put these pads on the stains (two to cover the spot), let sit for about an hour, pulled them up, and the stain was gone. I truly couldn't believe it. The pad was yellow. Somehow the old urine was soaked up into the pad. My carpet looks like new. I couldn't recommend these any higher for what I wanted and what I got. Wish I could give this more than five stars. " — Matt Get a pack of 20 from Amazon for $27.49 . 30. A Scrubbing Bubbles toilet cleaning stamp so you don't have to pick up that nasty toilet brush and scrub as often. Each stamp lasts up to 12 days and cleans the toilet with every flush. Bye-bye rings and limescale! Check out a TikTok of the Scrubbing Bubbles toilet cleaning stamp to see it in action! Promising review: "I was sooo skeptical and was confused about how they’d work but the gel solidifies and with every flush, suds wash through with the water and it really makes a fresh difference . Also the scent is light but really nice and fresh! I recommend these 100%! They’re super interesting but they do the job." — Janet Get it from Amazon for $4.67 . 31. A box of cleaning K-Cups — if your coffee's been tasting a lil' funky lately, it's probably because your machine is overdue for a cleaning. Just pop it in like you would with a K-Cup and let it run! It'll rid your Keurig of old grinds and residue, help extend its lifespan, and make your coffee taste super-duper fresh! Promising review: "I bought this product because the needle in my Keurig 2.0 kept clogging, causing inconsistent brew and taste. These cleaning cups fixed both of my issues and I especially liked that it was really quick and easy to use. I put the cleaning pod in and ran one cycle, then took the pod out and ran a rinse cycle to clean out any leftover grinds. FAST, EASY, and GREAT results...VERY HAPPY!! " — Corey West Get a box of six pods from Amazon for $9.95 . 32. A pack of dishwasher cleaning tablets because even though that savior of a machine cleans your bowls, plates, and silverware, it doesn't clean itself. Just pop in a tablet and run a cycle (with or without dishes) to remove limescale and mineral buildup that's making your machine and dishes smell funky. No need to shell out for a new dishwasher after all! Promising review: "I rarely post reviews, but this stuff has completely changed our lives. Our dishwasher, utensils, plates, and glasses were covered with dry scale and nothing we tried came close to helping. After using the tablets three times our dishwasher looks like new; our glasses are sparkling like fine china and everything else looks fabulous . Highly recommend, worth every penny, best product BY FAR!!! One great advantage is you can use it with your dishes. Some other products are used to clean the dishwasher but not to clean dishes and glasses. Buy this, you will be blown away!!! It is astounding!" — Jenny Get a pack of six tablets from Amazon for $8.99 . 33. An air purifier if you just want to relax at home but the dust lurking around has different plans for you — aka congestion, sneezing, and itchy, watery eyes. This baby captures dust, pollen, smoke, pet dander, and even odors (like the stink from your cat's litter box) so you don't have to live with all those miserable allergens and smells circulating in the air. If you have kids or pets with asthma or allergies, this can help cut down on their triggers as well. Promising review: "I have severe allergies during the spring and summer months and have tried everything from nettie pots to OTC allergy medicine to get some sort of relief. If you saw my trash cans they were full of used tissues and I was still constantly sneezing. I saw immediate results with the first few days. I use it at night in my bedroom I have the setting on '2,' which is at the medium setting. The noise level is not that bad; I can still hear the television and hold a normal conversation with my husband. The noise level tends to go away or blend once you get used to it. The results are great. I still have the occasional sneeze and have to use a tissue every now and then but, I am nowhere near what I was. I can finally breathe at night without having to take the OTC medicine. This has been a true lifesaver for me. I will be looking to purchase another one after our renovations are completed in our kitchen/living room. Best purchase ever to get a sense of normalcy in my life." — P. Allen Get it from Amazon for $69.91 (available in black or white). Reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.
