I get it — it might seem overdramatic to say all of these products are life-changing, but I promise it’s not just me. A ton of reviewers are calling these items “life changing” or “game-changers.” So, honestly, you’re missing out if you haven’t tried any of these cheap finds. Don’t worry — I’ve added in all of these “game-changing” and “life-changing” reviews, so you can see for yourself the exact impact these items have.

I mean, you have to believe in a microdermabrasion exfoliating mitt when a reviewer raves, “These mitts have LITERALLY changed my life. They've completely, TOTALLY changed my skin!” I promise you’ll quickly throw out your loofah for this wearable exfoliator that helps out with ingrown hairs. Plus, you can actually wash it (unlike a loofah), so it’s always clean when you want to exfoliate.

Or what about when a reviewer writes, “Game changer folks,” about a set of grocery bag carriers. They’re basically sturdy handles that help you carry your entire grocery haul (or clothes shopping haul) without dropping anything. Yep, 50 pounds worth of groceries. Plus, they’re compact enough to store in the reusable grocery bags in your trunk.

Whether or not you think “life-changing” is a bit dramatic, scroll through for a bunch of cheap finds. After grabbing those transparent pimple patches or the light-up dog collar, you might just agree with these reviews.

1A Vitamin C Serum That Brightens Up Your Usual Routine

This vitamin C serum with ferulic acid, hyaluronic acid, and d-alpha tocopheryl is perfect if your usual skincare could use some brightening up. You don’t have to throw anything else away to use this clarifying, radiance-enhancing, and plumping serum. It will obviously feel refreshing and brightening, but it also helps clear acne and evens out skin tone.

One reviewer raved: “I’ve purchased this serum several times and I’m obsessed! I have noticed a huge reduction in redness and fine lines. I have extremely sensitive skin and it does not irritate or break my skin out. I also have sensitivity around my eyes, my eyes water if any irritant gets near them. This serum does not cause my eyes to water or cause redness. I also love that the serum doesn’t turn brown as long as the cap is on properly and it’s kept away from sunlight. After three months of using this serum I have stopped wearing foundation daily and I constantly get comments on how beautiful my skin is. Obviously, this is just one tool in my skin care routine but I think it is by far the most impactful as far as improving texture and reducing redness..”

2This Discreet Under Cabinet Jar Opener That Works On Lids Of All Sizes

This durable jar opener replaces bulky bottle openers and other gadgets. Simply install this under your cabinets, slide a jar or bottle lid into the V-shaped slot, and the sturdy teeth pop open the jar. This thin opener is nice and hidden under your cabinet, so it doesn’t ruin the look of your kitchen and uses otherwise under-utilized space. Plus, it can even help out with tiny lids on non-kitchen products, like facial toner.

One reviewer raved: “I suffer from neurological issues and often times have difficulties in opening a jar or bottle top. I've bought other openers which help but I still an unable to open some items. This jar opener will open anything from a large jar lid to a small water bottle top. It mounts easily under the kitchen cabinet and stays hidden. All you have to do is slide the jar/bottle into the slot until it presses snuggly. Then you can use both hands to twist and the top becomes loose. It takes far less strength to turn (since you can use both hands). I've yet to find any jar or bottle I couldn't open easily. This one item, has been a life changer for me (or at least I no longer worry about not being able to open jars). If you are looking for a jar opener... I highly recommend this one!”

To say that this product saved my life may be dramatic but it literally saves me the mental agony of constantly fixing the bed.

I pick and squeeze and can never get it all out in one go. Then the spot builds again, make up looks terrible and etc. These patches are beyond brilliant. They’re invisible for a start my husband didn’t notice at all bless him. You can see when they’ve drawn stuff out because a patch of the sticker changes colour goes whiter. When you peel it off you can see the gunk stuck to the plaster and NOTHING left in the spot. Also; the spot has hardly any redness at all and it almost invisible compared the small craters I usually end up creating in my face. Finally ... you can’t pick! I absent mindly run my fingers over spots. Not good! Can’t get anywhere near with these babies on. AND THEY STAY ON IN THE SHOWER!

It also takes very little product to cleanse your whole face every night, and doesn’t leave your skin dry or tight. Works well with any follow up moisturizer.”
