I Recommend These Products To Everyone I Know
Amazon Recommendations
A good Amazon recommendation is always welcome, isn’t it? Earlier this month, I asked my Facebook friends to share their latest finds from the online retailer. I received some eye-opening responses. One man bought his bearded dragon a brand-new heat lamp while another ordered 48 rolls of athletic tape for his daughter’s volleyball team. There were also many other random things: chewing gum, reusable shopping bags, sippy cups, water flossers, smart bulbs, and even a bullhorn!
A common trait among people is finding useful products and sharing them with those around us. Today, I’d like to share these things with you! I’ve found twenty-nine Amazon products that I think are worth sharing with others. Here are a few of my recommendations, ranging from that “good ice” to a mini-projector.
The Coolest 1,000-Piece Jigsaw Puzzle
Amazon
As strange as this purchase might seem, I really enjoyed watching the puzzle come together and seeing it once it was finished.
Whether you’re with your family or a significant other, I’d recommend this for a home game night.
This Ear Spray Cleared Prevents Swimmer’s Ears
Amazon
The infamous swimmer’s ear prevents me from swimming more often. There is nothing worse than getting clogged ears after going for a dive or a swim in a pool.
Waterproofing Ear Spray has saved my life! Before engaging in any water activities, I spray it 1-2 times on my ears so it coats the ear canal with a water-repellent layer. The duo pack is perfect for people like me who love to swim.
The Perfect Ping Pong Set
Amazon
There is nothing better than a fun game of ping pong. This ping-pong set includes a retractable net, posts, and a storage case, along with professional table tennis rackets and balls.
Besides being affordable, it’s got everything you need to get your game on. Within a matter of minutes, you’ll be impromptu ping-pong players.
The Best Way To Keep Warm
Amazon
Here in Florida, we use the term “cold” subjectively. We normally use this term when it’s below 70 degrees outside and we’ve pulled out the electric blanket, microwaveable slippers, and tea kettle.
These days, I don’t experience “cold” the way I used to when I lived in cold-weather climates where a warm jacket and heavy shoes were a must. But you’ll be able to keep warm with this thickened-down jacket. With a fleece-lined hood and plenty of pockets, it comes in all colors from neutral to bold.
Affordable In-Ear Headphones
Amazon
The Apple AirPods Pro is my go-to recommendation, but not everyone can spend $200 on AirPods. The in-ear headphones I recommend are less than $40 per pair, which is a lot more affordable.
There are over 53,000 Amazon reviews for these headphones, which is a sizable focus group even though they aren’t made by Apple. Variety is one thing they have that Apple lacks. Six colors are available, including one that looks as rich as a bottle of Dom Pérignon.
The Perfect Mini-Projector
Amazon
Before tragedy struck in 2020, I used to go to the movies several times a month. For obvious reasons, I have all but stopped going to the movies.
But with this mini-projector, I can still enjoy movie nights at home with my family. Despite its small size, it offers theater-quality viewing and can be taken anywhere. An at-home popcorn machine is the perfect companion for this purchase.
A Play Tunnel, Or A Cat Bed?
Amazon
Nothing gives me more pleasure than messing with cats’ minds. Combining a play tunnel with a cat bed keeps the cat’s mind active while providing a relaxing spot for naps.
Whether it’s a snuggly cat bed or a toy for them to swat at, it zips together for a cozy cat bed or unzips for a play mat. It’s perfect for some feline fun.
Prevent Puffy Eyes With This Eye Cream
Amazon
Waking up with puffy eyes is one of the worst feelings in the world— but luckily, you can get rid of them with this soothing eye cream.
In addition to reducing puffiness, the tripeptide blend also firms wrinkled skin. With its matte finish, dabbing it lightly under your eyes prevents you from looking shiny!
The Best Way To Keep Food Fresh
Amazon
Is there someone in your household that never seems to be able to reseal the bag to your standards? Then, when you grab a chip, nut, or cookie, they’re old and stale? I get your frustration.
Designed for people like you and me, this seal-and-pour bag clip makes it easy to open and close bags. You can easily attach the innovative design to plastic or paper bags to keep food fresh for much longer. Serving and resealing is a breeze with the handy pour spout.
Affordable, High-Quality Bed Sheets
Amazon
As far as bed sheets are concerned, I’m a snob. You don’t want them to be too warm or too cold, too scratchy or too soft, too slippery or too rough. When you hear a name like Utopia, you know these bedsheet sets are going to be of high quality.
For a reasonable price, you get one fitted sheet, one flat sheet, and two pillowcases in burgundy, navy, or aqua. Their sizes range from twin to California king. With over 21,000 reviews, it’s safe to say that you can trust this product. Upon learning how to fold a fitted sheet, you will be an expert at adulting.
The Best Way To Curl Your Hair
Amazon
Throughout my life, I’ve used plenty of girly hair and beauty products. But the Octocurl is unlike anything I’ve ever seen before.
Microfiber strips are attached to a headband that curls your hair overnight without the use of heat or curlers. You can sleep in it comfortably and when you wake up, you’ll either have loose beach waves or tight curls. And you won’t be risking any heat damage — I dig it!
This Splatter Screen Fits Most Pans
Amazon
Do you even qualify as an adult if you don’t own a splatter screen? After purchasing this, I knew I’d finally made it. For the first time in my life, I was cooking real, grown-up meals and all while preventing messy grease splatters all over my stove and counters.
Fitting any pan between 11- to 13-inches, this splatter guard guarantees that the mess stays inside your pan rather than all over the kitchen. It is especially useful when you’re frying chicken or fish. But what else does it have to offer? Well, you won’t have to worry about getting splashed with hot oil anymore! Can I get an “amen?”
Mini Ice-Cube Trays
The “good ice” doesn’t need to be explained, does it? There are a lot of places that make delicious slushy mini-cubes that are perfect for crunching on.
These mini-ice cube trays are made out of silicone, which means that you can have the “good ice” experience at home without any hassle. They freeze quickly because they are so small, and they come in a two-pack, which means you’ll always have the “good ice” on hand.
Top Chefs’ Favorite Butter Bell Crock
Amazon
Top chefs praise this original Butter Bell crock, and for good reason! These butter crocks are made from an exclusive clay formula that is more durable and long-lasting than anything out there.
In addition, each one is covered by a two-year warranty. There are a variety of color options available as well as high-quality designs, glazes, and patterns. The antique collection is my personal favorite.
The Coolest Semi-Permanent Dye
Amazon
Throughout the years, my hair has been every color of the rainbow – including lavender most recently. With this semi-permanent hair color, I can maintain my desired hues for up to 25 washes.
With this vegan and peroxide-free option, you can go pink, green, or red. You can even change the pastel shade if you prefer rosy pink to flamingo pink. You can use this at home as an alternative to going to the salon.
A Vintage Bluetooth Speaker
Amazon
I’ve seen many trends come back into fashion: from scrunchies to stirrup pants to fanny packs. Here’s another retro idea I’m digging. Despite its vintage look, this Bluetooth speaker is loaded with modern features.
Music can be streamed, audiobooks can be listened to, phone calls can be made, and Alexa can even assist you when needed. You’ll be reminded of jukeboxes and simpler times with this handheld, portable design.
Doctor-Recommended Earwax Removal System
Amazon
Friends aren’t friends unless they tackle hard issues, right? I mean those gross topics no one wants to discuss. Now listen up! Pun intended. An abundance of earwax can make life downright miserable.
Here’s a doctor-recommended aid for removing earwax. You shouldn’t use cotton swabs in your ears; in fact, doctors warn against putting anything smaller than your elbow inside your ears. Except for this little earwax removal system that you should definitely add to your medicine cabinet stat.
This Meditation Cushion Makes Yoga So Much Easier
Amazon
I didn’t realize how much gear yoga requires when I first started practicing a few years ago: mats, straps, blocks, etc. What difference could a meditation cushion make, apart from adding to my luggage?
You won’t believe the difference it made. Yoga poses became easier for me, and meditative moments became more enjoyable. You should give it a try if you want to improve your practice.
Don’t Knock It ‘Til You Try It
Amazon
My first reaction to seeing this itty-bitty microphone was to giggle – not laugh. My first thought was that if Barbie was going to sing karaoke, this is exactly what she would use.
But the popular saying, “Don’t knock it ’til you’ve tried it,” definitely applies here. You can use it for online chatting or to record your voice on your smartphone, tablet, or laptop. It comes in blue, pink, silver, or gold.
The Built-In Thermometer Shower Head
Amazon
You’ve probably heard some crazy celebrity demands for dressing rooms and trailers, such as keeping the temperature at 74 degrees.
While you aren’t a celebrity and this isn’t your dressing room, you can live like one with this LED thermometer shower head. Outfitted in polished chrome, this shower head allows you to set the temperature just right… just in case Beyonce stops by for a quick shower.
Fancy Playing Cards
Amazon
It’s not often that I play cards, but this sleek desk of black foil playing cards always draws my attention. They’re so fancy, just look at them!
This black and white card has a smooth and shiny background, as well as a black pattern. It is both waterproof and flexible. There are 52 playing cards and two jokers included in the set. When you play card games, you might as well look cool doing so. Why not invest in this set?
Clean Car = Happy Driver
Amazon
In my opinion, a clean car drives better. No matter what, you’ll always find me at a car wash before I leave town.
It is said that a clean car makes a happy driver. Using this foaming citrus cleaner, you can lift stains and remove odors from inside your car – including cloth, carpet, and upholstery.
Ladies, Listen Up
Amazon
The guys probably don’t need to listen to this, but ladies, listen up! There’s one magical quality about these hipster panties from Warner: They eliminate muffin tops.
The three-pack comes in a variety of fun colors, including flamingo pink and toasted almond. What’s even better is that these panties get delivered straight to your door! Yay!
Reducing Spoilage
Amazon
In my refrigerator, produce goes bad so quickly that I have to discard it. The FreshWorks produce containers saved me after I’d tried everything else.
You can reduce spoilage by keeping moisture away from fruit and vegetables with the CrispTray insert. Rubbermaid makes these, so you know you’re getting great quality.
A Safe Sticker Making Machine
Amazon
Pre-teens will love this sticker maker. A permanent adhesive backing of up to 2.5 inches wide and 1/16 inch thick can be applied with this lightweight machine.
There are no batteries, heat, or electricity needed to operate it, making it safe and easy for children to use!
The 10-In-1 Kitchen
Amazon
If there is one thing that you should know about me, it’s that I love “all-in-one” gadgets that do multiple things well.
Besides serving as a bowl, this colorful gadget is also an avocado scoop, citrus cutter, apple corer slicer, grater, and juicer. All components stack neatly together in one compact cup when not in use.
An Interactive Cat Toy
Amazon
Everyone knows that cats are curious creatures. Their attention is often drawn to fish swimming around in a bowl.
This interactive cat toy introduces your feline friends to swimming “fish” that they can catch and play with. They won’t even notice that the fish are actually tiny robots. Drop them in a bowl and watch them go!
Wallet Flashlights
Amazon
Sometimes you just need a light, but carrying a flashlight around isn’t practical. Or, is it? You can take this 10-pack of wallet flashlights with you wherever you go, conveniently sized to fit in your wallet or purse.
Not only are they durable and compact, but one reviewer even called them “easy to store and carry anywhere.”
The Portable Personal Blender
Amazon
In the past few years, I’ve consumed countless protein shakes.
The majority of them would have been easier if I had had this portable blender. In addition to blending on the go, this mini-blender doubles as a cup to simplify the process. This means you can drink on the go too!
