These 27 TikTok Products Might Seem “Boring,” But Their Results Will Blow Your Mind
“If I could give this product 6 stars, I would.” —a reviewer raving about the ChomChom
1. A First Aid Beauty KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub that exfoliates dry and rough bumps. This scrub can also help decongest pores and remove dead skin. It’s vegan, cruelty-free, and safe for all types of skin!
Promising review: “I am sorry that I did not discover this years ago! I ordered two of them by mistake, and it’s one of my best mistakes. I have had the ingrown hair issue on my legs for years now, which causes the ‘strawberry legs’ issue as well. I’ve been using once a week for a month now, and my legs have never seen a smoother day before! It is incredible. I apply it on my legs and scrub it with my bare hands a little bit. Then, I continue doing it with the scrubbing side of my sponge for a couple of minutes. I’m scared to stop using it. I don’t want to go back to my old legs!” —Eylote
Get it from Amazon for $10.20+ (available in four sizes).
2. A jar of 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. 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 money’s 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 fireplace, and 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. I will always have it 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 $5.97.
3. A downright magical veggie chopper so you can feel like the next Gordon Ramsay. It comes with four interchangeable blades, so this multi-functioning gadget can chop, spiralize, and slice veggies instantly. Plus, it has a built-in storage container that’ll leave your kitchen ~mess-free.~
Watch someone effortlessly chop a bunch of vegetables with it on TikTok!
Promising review: “Best chopper I’ve used! It’s super sturdy, and cutting onions especially is super easy, even though they have a really hard and waxy skin. My Vidalia chopper failed in less than five uses. And it took so much strength and pressure from me to chop the onions. The blades were blunt. This chopper is the answer to my prayers. The blades are super sharp, and because of this, they have safety features too! Everything can come apart easily and put back together. So putting it in the dishwasher takes no effort!” —SummerBreeze
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in four colors).
4. A ChomChom pet hair remover that has over 138,000 5-star ratings (!!!) with over 5,000 of them calling it “the best” — a word that shall not be taken lightly. It’s like a reusable lint roller (without those annoying sticky papers) and is designed to pick up pet hair efficiently. Once fur is locked in, it doesn’t go anywhere until you empty it out!
Jenae Sitzes / BuzzFeed
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 designs).
5. And a rubber broom to remove fur from carpets, rugs, hardwood — basically anywhere your lil’ stinker decides to shed. The rubber acts as a magnet for pet hair, and you can even use it to squeegee your windows, floors, and any hard surface!
Check it out on TikTok!
Reviewers say using short, quick strokes is the most effective way of extracting the most pet hair from your rug.
Promising review: “So of course I saw this product on TikTok…and added it to the list of things that TikTok made me buy. But I’m very glad that I did. I have a Siberian husky who sheds a LOT…and in all seasons. I use this on my carpet before vacuuming, and it loosens up the hair so easily that my vacuum never got. I never realized I had that much dog hair caked into my carpet until I used this!” —Alyssa Frey
Get it from Amazon for $15.97 (also available in several other styles and bundle sets).
6. A bottle of cuticle repair oil that’ll 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.
See someone apply it on TikTok!
Promising review: “This product literally changed my life!! Not only does it smell AMAZING (vanilla-y?), but it also WORKS! I never leave reviews but this worked so well for my brittle nails I just had to! After destroying them from lifelong nail biting and fake nails, my nails used to be so brittle and hardly grew. After using this (even semi-inconsistently) for less than a month, my nails are stronger than ever and even have grown past my fingertips, which has NEVER happened without fake nails or gel on top. My cuticles are softer and healthier and break apart less, making me bite/pick at them less. I also read reviews about people complaining about the small size. How much product do you need for NAILS!? The 0.25 ml is larger than some nail polishes I own, and after using it for a while, I’ve barely made a dent. Cannot recommend more!” —Katie
Get it from Amazon for $9.90+ (available in three sizes).
7. 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).
8. A Bissell Little Green machine that looks like Mike Wazowski but is no monster; instead, meet your new bestie. This compact cleaner uses warm water and a specialized liquid cleaner to remove all ~oopsies~ from mud, food, pets — you name it. Some reviewers love this product so much they’ve declared that they can’t live without it.
Promising review: “Two months ago, we got a 6-month-old puppy who has needed some time to get adjusted. That included more than a few accidents in our living room and on his bed. This machine has made cleaning up everything so much simpler, and I love that it’s deep cleaning and has a nontoxic pet cleaner so that our not-so-little puppy isn’t harmed through exposure or smells. Also helpful since my teenage sons like to camp out on the couch with their friends on long weekends and our couch gets that fresh, clean smell in an hour.” —Kindle Customer
Get it from Amazon for $99.99.
9. Seraphic Skincare microdermabrasion mitt to exfoliate all your dead, dry skin with its viscose fiber material, leaving you smooth like butter. Just put the mitt on your hand while in the shower or bath and scrub away!
Watch someone use it to remove their self-tanner buildup on TikTok!
Promising review: “I have always used body scrubs, so many different kinds and brands. When using this mitt, I didn’t see much dead skin, but I wasn’t expecting to since I consistently use body scrub. After using this mitt, my skin has never felt softer or smoother. I wish I found this sooner, I would have saved a lot of money not buying buying scrubs. This is a wonderful price for a wonderful product. If it is in your cart, buy it now!!” —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (also available as a pair).
10. A pack of washing machine cleaning tablets that’ll remove grime and odor-causing residue because, yes, you should be cleaning the machine that cleans your clothes — oh, the irony. After running a cycle with just a tablet inside, your washing machine will be sparkling clean *and* your laundry won’t stink like mildew after your next wash.
They’re safe to use with pretty much any type of washer: HE or regular, top-loading and front-loading.
Promising review: “I’ve been using this product for several years now. I have two teens and a husband who’s an auto technician. Boy, do they get filthy! After time this grime buildup will make your washer stink bad. I don’t do it every month as they say to, as I don’t have that type of money, but when it stinks, this product is the bomb! Makes your washer smell really fresh, like brand-new. If it still stinks after one tablet, pop another one in, and no more stink!! Yay! I would give this 20 stars if I could. I really love this product so much that I bought the ones for my dishwasher, too!! (they work great, too!)” —berja
Get a pack of six from Amazon for $11.98.
11. A hairbrush cleaning brush to remove hair that’s been stuck in there for who knows how long. It’ll also remove fluff from the bristles because somehow there ALWAYS seems to be a dust buildup in your brushes.
Watch someone use it to clean their Revlon Hot Air Brush on TikTok!
Reviewers recommend giving your brush a good soak in warm water after using this tool to make it shine!
Promising review: “It seemed ridiculous to buy a brush for my hairbrush, but this really works! I had recently bought a new hairbrush, and I was shocked by the amount of fuzzies and dust that had accumulated so quickly — it looked dirty! I found this and scrubbed my regular hairbrush, and all the lint/fuzzies came out. The bristles are very stiff, so I was worried about damaging the boar bristles in my hairbrush, but it didn’t at all. I feel like my hairbrush is a lot cleaner now!” —Kate
Get it from Amazon for $11.95.
12. A pack of Mighty Patches so you can tackle those pesky pimples (white)head-on. The hydrocolloid absorbs the gunk inside, which helps speed up the healing process. If you need a pimple gone ASAP and you just can’t help but pick at it, these bad boys work overnight *and* protect the zit from your wandering fingers!
Hero Cosmetics is an Asian woman-founded brand and home of the popular Mighty Patch and more. Ju Rhyu launched the brand in 2017, and it’s since evolved with products such as cleansers, toners, and nose strips!
Promising review: “I do not claim to understand the science behind these tiny miracles, but they have changed my life. I spent my work day looking forward to going home and putting one of these bad boys on my newly erupted Mt. Zit, and the overnight results were shocking. Not only is it grossly satisfying, but it saved me several days of walking around with a bloody crater in my face because my previous method of dealing with unsightly blemishes was to pick pick pick.” —Adg
Get a pack of 72 from Amazon for $21.97.
13. A Blume Meltdown Acne Oil that nourishes skin instead of drying it out. Use it before moisturizing, or mix it in for a full-face coverage. Its rosehip, blue tansy, tamanu, and black cumin seed formula helps to fight current pimples, reduce acne scars, and even prevent future breakouts.
Blume
Blume is a WOC-founded small business run by two sisters making period and skincare products for teens and adults alike.
Promising review: “Best oil for adult acne! My favorite acne treatment by far!! Everything else dried me out or would make my acne worse. Because my acne is hormonal, not teen acne, I reacted to all of the drying products that are so popular. This oil is super hydrating, doesn’t cause breakouts, actually helps heal my skin, and improves clarity. I add a pump of it to my DIY clay face masks once a week, too, and it works great in that combo. It also smells amaaaazing. Couldn’t believe my eyes!” —Sophia G.
Get it from Blume (available in two sizes) or Amazon for $28+.
14. A cult-favorite TubShroom (85,000+ 5-star ratings!) to catch all the hair before it clogs your drain so you won’t be showering in a puddle up to your ankles. This cute little trinket just stays in the shower drain until the hair needs to be removed.
Hear why this person calls it a “must-have” for your bathroom on TikTok!
Promising review: “I hardly ever write reviews, but this thing is so amazing I had to share. With every shower I take, I shed a TON of hair and stick it to the wall so that no hair goes down my drain. I thought this method was working out well but my drain was continuing to stop up. I figured it must be my sister’s fault since I was so good about not letting any hair go down the drain, but I went ahead and ordered the TubShroom after seeing advertisements on Facebook. I got this thing, and after only two showers, it collected a crap ton of my hair that I didn’t catch. It really is so easy to install and wipe away the hair, exactly like the videos. Awesome invention and I’m super happy with this purchase!” —Megan K.
Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in four colors and a set of two).
15. An “Angry Mama” microwave cleaner so your mama doesn’t get angry the next time she comes over and sees a dirty microwave. Just fill it with vinegar and water, heat it up, and wipe down the inside once all the steam runs out (which takes around seven minutes). There’s no need for cleaning products or intense scouring when you have this lil’ mama!
Check out a TikTok of the “Angry Mama” microwave cleaner in action.
Promising review: “This makes cleaning out the microwave so easy. Even if I put it off too long and it’s really gross in there, a few minutes of mama working in the microwave and I can literally just wipe it out with no effort.” —Katy H
Get it from Amazon for $8.59+ (available in four colors).
16. A set of brush attachments that you can pop onto a drill. A DRILL —what?! Just attach it to the head and let the tool do all the work for you.
The drill isn’t included, but you can find a bunch of great ones on Amazon!
Note: Each color of the Drill Brush attachment corresponds to the type of bristles they have, and each one is best suited for a specific type of cleaning job (for example, the yellow brush has medium bristles, best used for bathroom cleaning — bathtubs, showers, tile, and porcelain). Be sure to check the listing for which color is best for your intended purpose before buying!
Drill Brush is a small business based in New York that makes cleaning brushes that attach to drills. It was started in 2007 by a former electrician who suffered from carpal tunnel and needed a way to clean without causing him harm.
Promising review: “These brushes worked flawlessly. I have a 24-year-old home that has not been remodeled yet. The master bath shower tile and fiberglass shower pan were in pretty bad shape. We tried many types of cleaners to remove residual soap and hard water stains with little success. As a last-ditch effort, I purchased these brushes. They worked amazingly well. Using Krud Kutter and these brushes removed every bit of the dirt and polished those tiles so that they shine brilliantly like they did when they were new. I am completely satisfied with my purchase of these brushes. They are well made and held up beautifully to the forces I applied while using them.” —Tom S4TX
Get the set of three from Amazon for $18.95 (available in six different brush stiffnesses).
17. A Rubbermaid power scrubbing brush with an oscillating head that’ll clean twice as fast as using a manual scrubber. This small but mighty brush is perfect for cleaning up grout lines and tight spaces — your tiles are about to be so shiny that you might even see your reflection.
Watch it cut through build-up on what might be the grossest shower of all time on TikTok!
BuzzFeed Shopping’s Natalie Brown is a fan of this: “I’m obsessed! This thing works small miracles: I cleaned about half of my bathroom’s grout to its original sparkling-clean cream color in 40 minutes, and it took honestly no effort at all. And — as if easy, sparkling grout wasn’t enough! — it busted through some serious soap-scum buildup in my bathtub (thanks, fancy soap and slow-draining tub) in less than a minute. Honestly, when I first tried the scrubber out, I didn’t see too many uses for it other than for grout. But after owning it for a while, I’ve realized that while I don’t need it every single week, it’s priceless for the occasions I encounter tough gunk that I’d otherwise only conquer with excessive patience and elbow grease.”
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
Check out Natalie’s full Rubbermaid Reveal Power Scrubber review for more!
18. A handy little cleaning ball that you can leave in your bag to capture any dirt, dust, or crumbs that *dare* to enter. You can also take it out of the casing and roll it around to pick up whatever is left over!
See how well it works at cleaning the bottom of a bag on TikTok!
Promising review: “I found out about this little gadget from a TikTok video, and I thought I’d give it a try. I usually keep some sort of snack in my purse, and as much as I try to keep the containers sealed and to keep my bags clean, I inevitably end up with those annoying little micro-crumbs at the bottom. As soon as I ordered this ball, I put it straight into my purse, and within a day or two, it was already time to wash it! It picks up a lot for being so small! Pro tip: To open it, squeeze the thick ring around the middle, and it should pop apart pretty easily. Rinse off the sticky ball part with just water, then put it back together and let it air dry for a couple of hours. Good as new! I highly recommend this product. Whether you have kids or not, bags just get lint and teeny tiny little crumbs over time. Buy it!!” —SBC
Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (available in five colors, as well as a set of three).
19. A bottle of Therapy Premium Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish in case you left fingerprints behind from your 2 a.m. snacking and you need to hide the evidence. It works great on any stainless-steel appliances and will make them ✨ sparkle ✨. Plus, it’ll leave a protective barrier to help guard against future smudging so you can continue on with your late-night food scavenger hunt.
Britt Ross / BuzzFeed
Therapy Clean is a family-owned small business based in Dover, New Hampshire.
Promising review: “I live in an apartment. The sink is about 35 years old and has become badly stained and scratched from neglect and indifferent care. This has made a noticeable difference. This sink will never look brand new again, but your product removed, I would say, about 80% of the stains without any extraordinary effort and put a really polished look on the sink. It is gleaming and actually looks very clean for the first time since I have lived here. —David Brennan
Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (available in two sizes).
20. A bottle of Drop It to reduce the amount of sulfites and tannins in wine (a probable reason for wine-induced headaches). Just keep it with you whenever you go drinking to help prevent those *awful* hangovers. Plus, your wine will taste exactly the same.
Emma Lord / BuzzFeed
See why this person highly recommends it on TikTok!
It works with any type of wine, and one little bottle will last for up to 55 glasses!
Drop It recommends 1–2 drops for each glass of white wine, 2–3 for a glass of red, and 7–9 if you’re treating the whole bottle at once. Once it’s in the glass, swirl lightly for 20 seconds, and enjoy!
Promising review: “I became really sensitive to wine in my 30s and through a lot of trial and painful error, I thought I might have to give up on wine altogether. Then I found out about the preservatives being a possible cause and decided to give this product a shot. So glad I did!! I’m still pretty sensitive to reds but this helps tremendously so that I can have a glass with dinner without a headache immediately settling in. Whites cause me no problem whatsoever! I love that it takes so little product to make a difference to a whole bottle. Just a few drops, a few minutes, and we are good to go.” —CastawayIrons
21. A foaming garbage disposal cleaner, because even though you can’t *see* your week-old pasta, that doesn’t mean it’s not still down there. Just insert one of these packets, let the water run, and turn on the disposal — it’ll basically start self-cleaning, so you don’t have to reach down there and do it yourself, *ick.* Once you see the bath bomb-like blue fizz, the job is done, and your sink will be free from the smelly, backed-up gunk.
Amazon
Promising review: “Saw on TikTok (don’t judge) and automatically added to cart. It’s so easy to use, takes probably a minute to fully bubble up and clean, and you’re left with a clean sink! I use with other drain cleaning products, but would 100% recommend for weekly maintenance.” —Jessica Hamilton
Get a four-pack from Amazon for $3.67.
22. A SoCozy curl spray leave-in conditioner that detangles and revives curly hair. It’s made for children but loved by *all* ages. Formulated with olive oil, jojoba oil, and vitamin B5, this spray will help maintain bouncy curls and prevent frizz!
It’s designed to work on all hair types, and reviewers with 2a–4c curls love it!
Promising reviews: “I absolutely LOVE this product. My daughter has extremely curly hair, and it was always a nightmare trying to wash and brush/ comb her hair. I bought this product along with 10 other products and this stuff is honestly the best stuff I have found. Spray it on, let it sit in for a couple of minutes, comb/brush and you have NO more tangles. I wish I found this stuff so much sooner. When I don’t put her hair up in a ponytail or braids, it definitely defines her curls and leaves her hair super soft and not frizzy.” —Marilyn
“This product is lightweight and doesn’t weigh your hair down. I am Black with 4c hair, and it works great!” —takila addison
Get it from Amazon for $8.89 (available in two sizes).
23. A bacteria- and virus-killing Clorox Toilet Wand Starter Kit to scrub off the chilling scum that sits in your toilet bowl — that no matter how hard you scour, never comes off. Just pop on a sponge, give the bowl a good scrub, and throw the sponge away!
See why someone who *hates* cleaning their toilet says this makes doing the job feel a lot more sanitary on TikTok!
The kit comes with a wand, six refill heads filled with Clorox, and a storage caddy. The wand has a convenient button you can use to dispose of the used sponge heads in the trash, and the heads are uniquely shaped to fit under the rim of your toilet.
Promising review: “I love this!!! I have three toilets, and cleaning them is no fun. I also have well water with a filter, so salt, iron, and calcium buildup fast on my toilets. It’s ugly! This little wand had me skeptical, but it impressed me! My toilets are sparkling and mess-free! No more ugly toilet brushes in my washrooms! Best invention ever!” —Christina Eno
Get it from Amazon for $11.98.
24. 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 they were 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 (also available in boxes of 12 and 18).
25. A highly rated CeraVe hydrating cleanser that purifies skin of all types from excess oils gently *without* stripping your skin of natural moisture. It’s formulated with three ceramides and hyaluronic acid to help your skin stay hydrated, too!
Watch someone test it out on TikTok!
Promising reviews: “Got this after seeing a recommendation on TikTok. It’s been a lifesaver for me. I have dry, red, sensitive, acne-prone skin. Most cleansers strip my skin, but not this one. It’s been helping keep my skin clear while not drying it for a few months now. If you have dry skin, this is a must!” —L Ashburne
“I have very sensitive skin and problems with blackheads and clogged pores. I’d been struggling to find a cleanser that would help eliminate my breakouts without irritating and drying out my face. Well, I have finally found it! CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser is by far the best I have ever tried. It gently cleans and hydrates at the same time, and has definitely helped with getting rid of my blackheads and large pores, leaving my skin soft and glowing.” —L Ann Blanch
Get it from Amazon for $18.39.
26. A bottle of Oh Yuk jetted tub cleaner so the next time you decide to take a bath, you’re not soaking in dirt-infested water. In just as little as 15 minutes, the inside of the jets will go from grimy to shiny — leaving you with clean and clear water. All you have to do is fill the tub with water, pour in the cleaner, and turn on the jets!
See how much gunk it gets out of someone’s jets on TikTok!
Oh Yuk is a family-owned small business based in Minnesota that specializes in PhD chemist-formulated cleaning products for home appliances, from dishwashers and washing machines to hot tubs and jetted bathtubs.
Promising review: “I honestly did not think this was going to work any better than some other methods I had tried. Boy, was I wrong. Followed the instructions and watched in disbelief as the gunk and the grime started surfacing in the tub. Let it run its course, drained the tub, then filled it with cold water, ran the jets for 10 minutes, and it was like brand new. Every now and then, you come across a product that actually works, this being one of those. BTW, it hardly has any smell, which also surprised me.” —JJS in Madison
Get it from Amazon for $18.73.
27. And finally, a foot file to scrub away all the rock-hard calluses your feet have worked up. It’s basically like a cheese grater for your dead skin.
See how much dead skin one person was able to remove from their husband’s feet on TikTok (maybe don’t eat while watching!).
Promising review: “I have purchased every callus cream on the market, and it has been a waste of time and money. This simple device is a miracle worker. The callus on my big toe is very, very hard, and the nearby callus along the side of the foot, while not as large and hard, is also difficult. I have used this device three days in a row, taking off a little at a time and not applying pressure. I apply lotion before and after using it and both areas show substantial improvement. It is important that you do not rush this process. Just a little at a time. Remember how long it took for that callus to form! Because I have been gentle and careful, I have no pain. Cleaning is simple. I wholeheartedly recommend!” —desertdragonfly
