A genius green alternative to plastic baggies, Stasher's silicone bags are going to change how you pack lunches and leftovers. Available in three sizes, you can reuse them over and over. They’re even safe for the freezer, microwave, dishwasher, and boiling water (if you’re into sous vide cooking!). In our Kitchen Appliances Lab’s test, the silicone bags proved impressively leak-proof thanks to a zip-lock and were much more airtight compared to other reusable options like beeswax wrap.

We first told you about this viral Ta-Ta Towel in 2017, and one year later the founder appeared on Shark Tank. Anyone with a large bust can attest to the annoying under-boob sweat that can happen while trying to get ready. This towel, available in three sizes and tons of fun colors, wraps around your neck and over the girls to help keep you dry. Our Textiles Lab pros evaluated the towel and found it did well in absorbency and wash tests.

Monkey Mat is super-lightweight and folds to the size of your hand, making it perfect for travel. A favorite of GHI’s Lexie Sachs, it creates a clean play surface no matter where you go.“My family just recently used this in our hotel room (that we know isn’t as clean as we’d like it to be),” says Sachs. “I didn’t cringe putting my little one on the ground to play.” Afterwards, she found it easy to clean and said it didn’t get damaged in the washing machine.

This overnight mask is perfect for reviving skin without irritation. It exfoliates your skin with glycolic and lactic acid whiles hydrating it at the same time with sodium hyaluronate and glycerol. The mildly fruit-scented formula also contains a watermelon-extracted amino acid which is thought to have antioxidant properties. Our Beauty Lab liked that the silky gel glides smoothly over skin and refreshes it instantly. Gentle enough to use two to three times a week in place of your usual night cream, it dries fast so you won’t have to worry about it getting on your pillow.

Not only will it bring a little fun to your sink, the super-popular Scrub Daddy smiling scrubber packs serious cleaning power. It softens in hot water for gentle scrubbing, then stiffens in cold water to get the tough stuff off cookware and bakeware without scratching. And no, its emoji design isn’t just for looks — put your fingers through its “eyes” to hold it and slip utensils into its “smile” to clean both sides at once.

Ring’s doorbell system lets you see, hear, and even speak to guests right from your smartphone. You’ll even get alerts when visitors press the bell or motion is detected.
