    29 Cool And Low-Key Magical Things To Help You Out With Everyday Problems

    Now I'm wondering if magic is real...

    1. An automatic pan-stirrer for recipes that call for continuous stirring. Now you can pretend you enchanted your spoon and give your casting arm a rest.

    2. A LifeStraw that allows you to drink pretty much any water you can find in nature. Hiking trips are now just icky water scavenger hunts.

    3. An antioxidant-enriched, magnetic face mask to lift away surface impurities like magic.

    4. The Wand — a mini handheld filter that could maybe reduce your wine-induced headaches. This handy lil' friend removes histamines and sulfites in alcohol, aka the stuff that can potentially cause a nasty hangover. Bonus: It claims to revive oxidized wine so you don't have to toss an open bottle.

    5. A peel-and-stick window film for some added privacy, while still letting in light — and rainbows!

    6. A Conair hot hair brush for when you wanna look like you have an in-home stylist at your beck and call.

    7. A blessedly effective carpet cleaner capable of turning your brown carpet into whatever color it was when you bought it.

    Promising review: "This is a wonderful product. I have an older dog who can't always wait until I get home from work so accidents occasionally happen. I have a Hoover Rug Scrubber and this product is very easy to use with my machine. Carpet Miracle works amazingly well on stains and odors, even those that have set for a while. I did the carpet in the 'room of shame' twice just to be sure, although for normal soil and odors once should be more than enough. It leaves behind a wonderfully clean, fresh scent, and the carpet feels and looks wonderful. I plan on continuing to use this product to keep my carpets clean and my home smelling fresh." —Vicky Faurot

    Get it from Amazon for $19.97.

    8. Ouija board planchette coasters for a spooky decor option you can use during Halloween and beyond. I asked, and the spirits said it was OK to use them all year long.

    9. A set of airtight silicone storage lids that seal to bowls with the magic power of suction. They're heat-safe so you can also use them as a pot lid or pot holder.

    10. A mystical wireless phone charger for anyone who prefers fantasy over the sci-fi reality we live in.

    11. A jewelry cleaning pen to bring that brilliant shine back to your cloudy gems.

    12. A nifty spout that creates little Mickey Mouse soap dollops. Just attach to your favorite foaming soap bottle and bam! You're basically in Disneyland.

    14. Garbage disposer cleaner that foams and freshens, not unlike a bubbling potion.

    15. A watermark remover for anyone who wishes they could turn back time to before their rude guests forgot to put down coasters. This is the next best thing!

    16. A Marshmallow Whip Maker loved by TikTokers thanks to its ability to turn your hum-drum cleanser into light frothy foam. Foam = easier to apply and less friction bothering your skin.

    17. A pack of Bottle Bright tablets possibly made out of fairy dust, because they'll totally wipe away years of grime in mere minutes.

    18. A leather restoring polish you can count on to help bring life back to your old furniture. Don't worry, it's not like a necromancy situation.

    19. A roll of peel and stick fake marble to jazz up all your dull surfaces.

    20. A set of produce containers for keeping your fruit and veggies fresher for longer. No more rushing home to gorge yourself on berries — take your sweet time!

    The set includes one 6.3-cup container, and two 17.3-cup containers with lids, which are BPA-free, and dishwasher-safe. They feature vents to regulate the flow of oxygen and carbon dioxide, keeping your produce fresh for longer!

    Promising review: "I bought my fruit on Friday and ordered this immediately because I’m so sick of throwing my fruit away if I don’t eat it in a few days. It’s been a WEEK now and my strawberries, pineapple, and blueberries, (all in this one big container), are STILL FRESH! I’m going to start buying more fresh fruit now that I know it won’t be wasted and thrown away in a few days. Highly recommend this product if you’re like me and can’t eat a whole pineapple, strawberries, and other fruit fast!" —Sarah

    21. Medicated, waterproof bandages that will make your wart erupt from the depths of your skin like a gross butterfly.

    Promising review: "This worked for me. Here's what happened. First bandage: Everything turned white. Second bandage: The top layer of the wart started disappearing and I could see the blood vessels that were inside it clearly. Third bandage: It started burning while wearing it. One day was REALLY painful, but now I think I just put the bandage on too tight. There was definitely burning though. Uncomfortable, not unbearable. Fourth bandage: The skin around the wart started to crack. Fifth bandage: The skin continued to crack and I could see the wart separating. Sixth bandage: Skin separating deeper. Wart was really soft but it wouldn't budge. Seventh bandage: The wart stuck to the medicine, so when I pulled off the bandage, the wart went with it. I'm left with some raw skin that's a bit sensitive but it feels fine. It looks like the entire wart came off, roots and all. Side note: It smells horribly. Make sure you put the bandage on tight enough to try and conceal the smell, but not so tight it hurts. Overall, not a horrible process. Make sure you follow the instructions and keep it on for 48 hours at a time. Two of mine were only on for 24 hours and I think that prolonged the process." —Chelsea Gipson

    Get a pack of 14 from Amazon for $6.96+ (available in four sizes).

    22. A pack of canker sore patches to heal those suckers in as little as one day. That means less stress — and less stress means less canker sores. The cycle is broken.

    They can stay on even while you're eating or drinking!

    Promising review: "Honestly this is one of the weirdest things I've ever done — but it worked. I put the patch on my canker sore (looks like a tiny pill) overnight and when I woke up the patch was all huge and felt like a sponge. IT WORKED! My canker sore was significantly smaller when I woke up and no longer rubbed up against my teeth. I did one more night with the canker patch and it was completely gone. This product works great for not just mouth sore, but tongue sores. Would highly recommend!" —LW

    Get a pack of six from Amazon for $13+ (available in two sizes).

    23. Cloning paste that can be applied to any nodes on the stem of your plant to promote new growth. So see that leggy plant over there that's all stem, no bushy leaves? This fancy goo can help! It's made for orchids (hence the name; the keiki is a plant produced asexually by an orchid plant) but works on a variety of plants, like begonias.

    Here's how it works: Find a node and peel away the bract to reveal the bud. Apply a small amount of the paste and in two to eight weeks, a clone will grow out of the node! 

    Promising review: "This product is just AMAZING!!! I waited a few months before writing this review because i wanted to test the product first. I am just AMAZED!

    I have to say...depending on the season and the place on the spike where you apply it, you either get a keiki or new flower spike (which is awesome!) Based on my experiments: the lower on the spike, the more chances to get a keiki. The higher on the spike, the more chances to get a new flower spike. If you apply it during winter (tropical area winter) you will more likely get flower spikes. If you apply it during summer (tropical areas) you will more likely get a keiki — at least that's what I observed!" —Anne-Isabelle Bonifassi

    Get it from Amazon for $14.99.

    24. A stain remover that says, "hey it's OK, no need to cry over spilled wine."

    Promising review: "Lo and behold! I completely cleaned the window sills, the window shades, the baseboards, the walls and the carpeting! You cannot even tell it happened. No stains or color change to the carpet or the walls or the white painted surfaces. Before you try or use anything, buy this. It cannot be beat! I was afraid I might have to hire a professional to clean the carpet and that I might have to completely repaint walls, but no." —Sharon Hamilton

    Get it from Amazon for $9.66.

    25. A plant vitamin solution to reduce transplant shock and help your plants grow strong roots.

    Just a heads up: The top reviews claim the product is diluted but when you switch to the most recent reviews, it doesn't look like an issue anymore. 

    Promising review: "I started using this and I'm super happy with the results so far! I have this little maranta leuconeura kerchoveana that hasn't put out new growth for a couple months and I started fertilizing it with this stuff and it's finally putting out new leaves! My other plants are quickly growing and happy as well." —omniscientbongos

    Get it from Amazon for $10.29+ (available in two sizes).

    26. A microfiber cloth that only need water to wipe away aaaalll your makeup with a few swipes. Your old greasy makeup remover could never.

    Just wet the towel with warm water and wipe the makeup clean off!

    Promising review: "I purchased this based on positive reviews and now know that they didn't even touch how amazing this product is. I was tired of using mascara removers and washing my face and still having makeup on. Well, that problem is now gone. This product seriously does what it says — it erases makeup! I could not believe the way it removed my makeup the first time I used it! I use it for a week, toss it in the wash, and use it again. I was wondering how it would clean up in the laundry, and it always looks brand new. I no longer have to use chemicals to remove my makeup!" —StaceyB

    Get it from Amazon for $20 (available in nine colors) or get a pair of cheaper ones that I swear by for $10.97.

    27. A smart notebook with 32 very special pages — you can use an app to download your notes, then erase the pages and reuse.

    28. A touchless stationery vacuum that completely removes the need for a dustpan. Just sweep the mess to the vacuum and say "bye, dirt!"

    29. A spell list notepad so you can keep track of all the things you need for your latest enchantment. Eye of newt? Check. Deadly nightshade? Check. Cool notepad? Check!
