The 41 Best Things On Amazon You've Never Heard Of

by Rebecca Martinson
Amazon

Some say that ignorance is bliss, and depending on the circumstances, I'm inclined to agree — when it comes to seeing your ex-boyfriend has a new girlfriend that he's posting all over Instagram or finding out that your roommate only rinses her dishes, for instance. But when it comes to discovering the latest and greatest products that you can show off to your friends, it's definitely better to be in-the-know rather than have your head in the sand — and that's why I've rounded up some of the coolest products on Amazon you never knew existed.

From an easy-to-use putty that lets you quickly fix holes in your rental apartment so you don't lose your security deposit to an LED lightbulb that doubles as a standalone flashlight, there are tons of highly-rated products on Amazon that you've never seen before.

And while there's unfortunately no dish soap on this list that you can send as a passive-aggressive hint to your roommate, fear not — there's a durable water bottle that doubles as a foam roller. Yes, I realize that won't help clean your dishes, but you can at least work the stress out of your muscles while you watch them splash around in the sink.

01The Putty That Lets You Quickly Fix Holes So You Can Keep Your Security Deposit

It's only until you need to move do you see the holes in your rental's walls — but instead of forfeiting your security deposit, use the Erase-A-Hole drywall repair putty to quickly plug them up. The custom putty formula won't shrink or crack, and it only takes minutes to repair holes in your plaster, drywall, or wood paneling. As an added bonus, this putty won't dry out after it's been opened, and it even dries white for a seamless blend into your walls.

02A Lightbulb That You Can Use Even When The Power Goes Out

Regular lightbulbs won't work without electricity (duh), but the JackonLux rechargeable LED bulbs can still provide you with up to four hours of light if your power ever goes out. You can also use these lightbulbs as standalone flashlights, hook lights, camping lights, and more. Plus, they're designed to be exceptionally durable and impact-resistant. Many Amazon reviewers noted how long their battery lasts when not plugged in, and one wrote: "very bright, and that's exactly what I needed in the garage!"

03The Handheld Massager That Helps Improve Your Blood Circulation

If you've found your muscles aching after a long, stressful day of work, then try using the Recoup Fitness cold massage roller to alleviate any soreness and increase blood circulation to those parts of your body. You can keep this roller in your refrigerator or freezer so it helps to cool you down while you massage yourself, and it's great for reducing inflammation both before and after your workouts.

04A Water Bottle That Doubles As A Foam Roller

Why lug a foam roller and a water bottle to the gym when you could just combine the two and use the MOBOT foam roller water bottle instead? Made from 100 percent cycled stainless steel that's incredibly durable and resistant to rust, this foam roller can handle up to 350 pounds of pressure, is BPA-free, and holds 27 ounces of water.

05The Packing Cubes That Keep Your Luggage Neat And Tidy

It's almost impossible for your clothes not to get tossed around and wrinkled while they're in a suitcase — unless of course, you have these LeanTravel packing cubes that ensure that your clothes stay organized and flat. They also help compress them so that you can fit even more items in your suitcase, and each order comes with two large cubes as well as one medium-sized cube. The sides are also reinforced so they hold their shape and won't stretch out over time.

06A Charging Cable Disguised As A Fashionable Bracelet

I literally own a leather Coach bracelet that looks exactly like the Auzev lightning cable bracelet — except mine costs hundreds of dollars, and it doesn't charge my phone. This bracelet is made from high-quality smooth leather that protects the lightning cable on the inside so that it doesn't wind up fraying like traditional cables, and it's even waterproof for added durability. One reviewer writes: "This is a great solution for anyone that wants an emergency charger in addition to having a great piece of jewelry."

07The Outlet That Turns Your Devices Off To Save You Energy

If you've ever forgotten to turn off your stove, hair straightener, lights, or practically any other electrical appliance, then you might want to try using the Simple Touch shut-off safety outlet. This outlet will automatically cut off your devices' supply of electricity to help save you money on utilities in the event you forget to turn them off yourself, plus you can choose between one, two four, and eight hours depending on what works best for you.

08A Night Light That Doubles As An Aromatherapy Diffuser

You can use it as a gentle bedroom nightlight, or you can use the Kimfly night light aromatherapy diffuser to spread your favorite essential oils throughout the air in your home. The white porcelain lampshade has a groove on the top that holds essential oils so that the lightbulb can evaporate them into the air, and it even rotates a full 360-degrees so you can easily make it fit into any awkward corners.

09The Wipes That Let You Take A 'Shower' Anywhere

Whether you're camping, hiking, or simply so busy that you don't have time to take a proper shower, the Dude Products shower wipes can help you stay clean. These wipes are TSA-approved so that you can easily use them to refresh yourself after a long flight, and because they're made from an extra-large, thick material, you won't have to worry about them tearing as you wipe yourself down from head to toe.

10A Pack Of Drywall Hooks That Can Hold Up To 50 Pounds Each

Mounting heavy frames to your walls can be difficult — unless you have these Monkey Hook picture hanger hooks. Just press them into your drywall the same you would as thumbtacks: Each order comes with 10 original hooks, 10 hooks that are made from thicker steel, and 10 flush hooks that are perfect for smaller items. These hooks can hold up to 50 pounds so you won't have to worry about your items crashing to the floor, and they require no tools to install.

11The Sanitizing Mist That's Made With Organic Essential Oils

Made from six different 100 percent certified organic essential oils, the PlaneAire travel mist is a great way to sanitize any germ-laden surfaces while you travel. This mist eliminates over 99.99 percent of potentially harmful bacteria, and the compact size is TSA-approved. Each bottle lasts for approximately 450 sprays — plus, it's even great for everyday use in taxis, public bathrooms, gyms, and more.

12A Nail Clipper That's Designed With A Rotating Swivel Head

Clipping your nails at awkward angles can lead to a clunky manicure, whereas the SpinSnips precision nail clipper is designed with a rotating swivel head that lets you trim your nails in the most comfortable position possible. The blades on this clipper are extra-sharp, so you don't have to worry about leaving your nails with any jagged edges — plus, the stainless steel construction means that they're resistant to rust.

13The Filter That Removes Preservatives From Your Wine

If you've ever had a glass of wine only to wind up with a splitting headache a few hours later — then try using this brilliant PureWine wand filter to get rid of all the sulfite preservatives and histamines that can leave you with painful hangovers. This wand filter works with all types of wine as well as sparkling wines, and it won't impact the flavor or aromas of your wine. Its compact size means you can keep it with you to use at restaurants, and one reviewer writes: "OMG!!!! This works. I love wine, but have terrible allergies to the histamines, sulfites, and preservatives in wine. I actually use one wand for two glasses of wine. I was very skeptical, but it works like a dream!"

14A Mold That Makes The Perfect Ice Cubes For Whiskey

Regular ice cubes melt quickly because they have more surface area exposed to your beverage — but the Corkcicle whiskey wedge is shaped to melt much slower (yes, like a wedge). The mold is made from flexible silicone so that it's easy to pop the cube out once it's frozen, and you won't have to worry about it cracking through repeated use.

15The Curling Grater Made From Stainless Steel

Whether you're preparing cheese, chocolate, or even vegetables, the Microplane large shaver grater makes it easy to create curls that look great on any plate. It's made from durable stainless steel that's resistant to rust, plus the non-slip rubber feet on the bottom prevent it from sliding all over your countertops while you work. This shaver also comes with a plastic safety cover to protect the blade when it's in storage, and you can even use it as a citrus zester.

16An Inflatable Lantern That's Powered By The Sun

Perfect for camping, picnics, or even simply for stocking your emergency kit, the LuminAID inflatable lantern can provide up to 12 hours of light when fully charged, and because it's solar-powered, you won't have to worry about replacing any batteries. There are seven different color modes to choose from as well as a multi-color rainbow fade mode — plus, you can even recharge it via USB in just two hours if you don't want to use the sun.

Whether you've got dark circles, puffy skin, or simply sore, tired eyes, Zuoli eye massager is right up your alley. This massager helps to stimulate healthy blood circulation in order to refresh the skin underneath your eyes, and it also has a heating function that helps open up your pores so your skin can absorb your favorite creams and serums. Many Amazon reviewers noted how it's "well-made," and one even raved that she could tell her eyes were less puffy after just one month!

18A Dry Shampoo Made With Oat Milk

Sometimes you just don't have time for a shower — so on days when you're in a rush, try using the Klorane dry shampoo to soak up the excess oil in your hair. This shampoo is made with oat milk that helps soothe your scalp, plus the added corn and rice starches are great for absorbing greasy residues. There are zero sulfates or parabens in the formula, and it even adds volume to your second-day style.

Not only can it attach to practically any 30-ounce tumbler including the Yeti, but the NEBO tumbler holder also has a built-in flashlight with three different dimmable lighting modes to choose from.

One Amazon reviewer even raved that they "literally couldn't even tell where the scratches were" after using this product.

23The Pen That Helps Restore Your Grout To Its Original White Color

Scrubbing your grout back to its original pearly-white color isn't always possible, so try using the Rainbow Chalk Markers LTD grout pen instead.

It dries quickly so you're not left waiting around to take a shower, and the precision applicator makes it easy to apply it directly to your grout without marking the tile.

Unlike traditional cooling racks that are wide and bulky, the Wilton three-tier cooling rack stacks on top of itself so that you can easily cool dozens of cookies without taking up tons of precious counter space.

Making sure that your burger patties are uniform in size and thickness is crucial to having them all cook evenly, which is only part of what makes the Cave Tools burger maker so great.

Each order comes with 25 barbecue recipes to help get you started, and the silicone construction means it's also naturally antibacterial.

26A Kitchen Scraper That You Can Use For Practically Anything

Use it to slice up dough and cheese — or you can even use the OXO scraper and chopper to help slide chopped vegetables and other ingredients from the cutting board to your pan. The blade is made from durable stainless steel that's resistant to rust, and it even has 1/4-inch markings that you can use to help measure out your food.

27The Face Mask Infused With Vitamin C To Brighten Your Complexion

33A Diffuser That Leaves Curly Hair With Tons Of Volume
