Online window shopping is one of my favorite hobbies. Bored? Scrolling on Amazon. Have free time? Scrolling on Amazon. Tipsy? Scrolling on Amazon (oof, that one’s dangerous). Even though — most of the time — I do have the self-control to stop at the “add to cart” button, there are so many interesting, crazy, genius products out there that always catch my eye. From hair dye wipes to instant underpants, here are nine hilariously genius (and kinda weird) Amazon products you have to check out.
1. Menstruation Crustacean – Lobster Plush with Lavender Scented Heating Pad // $24.99 // 4.8 stars
You have no idea how many times I had painful period cramps and thought to myself, “Ugh! I wish I had a cute and cuddly crustacean to cuddle right now!” Not only is this plushy crustacean a microwavable heating pad, but it has a comfy lavender scent and even holds tampons in its little claws. “A bloody fantastic gift,” the Amazon listing reads.
Becky took the words right out of my mouth. I also think I’ve said the same about my boyfriend, btw:
2. Archie McPhee Instant Underpants— Just add water! // $6.27 // 4.4 stars
I had no clue these existed, either. But based on many of the reviews (I can’t tell if these people are being satire??), it’s definitely worth checking out. The instructions on Amazon say, “These underpants are conveniently compressed into a compact pellet. Just soak them with water momentarily and they’ll loosen up so that you can pull them apart! And remember, it’s better to have damp underpants than no underpants at all!”
Check out this 5-star review that made me giggle. Way to go, Deborah.
3. Finger Covers for Cheesy, Greasy, Sticky Fingers // $19.99 // 4.3 stars
Ok, there are definite drawbacks to this — the first and obvious one being that licking your fingers after a cheesy snack is probably the best part. But I digress. These dishwasher-safe finger guards are made from food-grade silicone and fit on any size finger.
Susan is a fan and says it has “multi-purpose uses.” Not sure what other uses would be …? But go off, Queen.
4. Safety 1st Pacifier Medicine Dispenser // $2.49 // 4.2 stars
For proud parents of those precious little Cocomelon watchers, this looks like a game-changer. Designed to “easily dispense medicine while soothing your baby,” this paci has easy-to-read dosage marks and is easy to clean. Giving medicine to a fussy, sick baby is never fun — for anybody. Hopefully, this product saves a few of you!
It looks like it’s helped Karen and her son (2 is a fun age, am I right?):
5. Medcosa Headache and Migraine Relief Wrap // $22.99 // 4.3 stars
It ain’t cute, but neither is a headache. This wrap apparently helps your head stay cool when a migraine strikes and “works both as a mask and ice cap to help relax, distract and improve sleep.” It’s adjustable, durable, made of non-toxic medical-grade gel, and neurologist recommended.
This hat basically saved Rebecca’s life:
6. Things To Do While You Poo On The Loo: Activity Book // $6.99 // 4.6 stars
Have you ever found yourself with your undies by your ankles, realizing you forgot your phone in the next room? Don’t go for the ‘90s poo sesh, grab the nearest shampoo bottle, and start reading the label; check this book out instead. Complete with fart jokes, Sudoku puzzles, bathroom-themed word games, and even a poop checklist.
Great product for “ that uncle,” as described by Luca here:
7. Colortrak Hair Color Remover Wipes // $8.99 // 4.5 stars
If I knew these wipes existed years ago, It definitely would have saved me embarrassing trips in public with black hair dye marks on my face and hands. These wipes are “professional, non-irritating, convenient, and a salon essential.” Designed to erase hair dye stains and marks on the skin after hair coloring, these wipes have over a thousand glowing reviews and seem to really work. I’ll take 5!!!
I’m with Bill on this one— the list of home remedies I’ve tried in an attempt to remove hair dye off the skin is endless.
8. 'Fries on the Fly' Universal Car French Fry Holder for Cup Holder // $8.95 // 4.6 stars
I just added one to my cart right before typing this. I have driven countless miles with a hot carton of french fries in between my thighs. Not only does this holder carry fry boxes, but it’s multi-functional and can hold other items that don’t normally fit in a cup holder — phones, wallets, etc. I feel like you need this.
Chris is me, I am Chris:
9. Saucemoto In-Car Sauce Holder Dip-Clip // $18.99 // 4.6 stars
While we’re on the topic, I HAD to add this one in here. Can you imagine having the fry-holder-dip-clip combo? Life changinggggg. The Saucemoto is the best solution for the age-old problem of creating a mess in your car, or worse— sauce-less food.
PREACH, Quintana!
