32 Ingenious Target Products That’ll Make Your Life A Heck Of A Lot EasierIf your vision board is just the words “work smarter not harder”, this list is for you.

1.

A Byoma brightening toner to clean your pores without demolishing your skin barrier. Reviewers SWEAR BY this stuff to the point that I’m adding it to *my* basket to make my skincare life choices a little easier!

Target

Promising review: “I bought this after sifting through one too many TikToks. the bottle is cute and it’s affordable, i have combination skin with oilier summers and dryer, flakier winters❄️ What you need to know if that this product is POTENT!!! And if your skin is anything like mine, dilute it girl. Buy a small spray bottle from the dollar store, do one part bottled or filters water ( to reduce any minerals disrupting your skin ) and one part of the toner. Mist on dry or (preferably) wet skin for maximum absorption and your skin texture will melt away. My skin has never been smoother than after this. Holy Grail 🏆” —Anne

Price: $14.99

Or some Matter compostable lidded hot cups which are a win for you and the planet. (AND your plants if you use your compost to nourish those!)

Target

Matter is a company all about making compostable products from plants which is obviously so much better for the environment without sacrificing the convenience we love to have in our homes. I ~personally~ also love their earth-friendly sandwich baggies for lunches and snacks if you’re looking to green-ify another daily habit! 

Promising review: “They were great and they didn’t leak!” —Kay

Price: $5.99 for 10

5.

Target

A charming Ototo red crab spoon holder so you don’t splatter food bits all over your counter or stovetop. Plus, I can’t help but smile every time I pass mine, and some days, that’s all the win you need. (Yes, I leave him out holding the spoon triumphantly on the side of the pan even if I’m not cooking.)

Ashley Schumacher/BuzzFeed

Promising review: “This crustacean (it’s a crab, right?) not only acts as a spoon rest, he is also a working steam releaser that keeps my pan from bubbling over. I constantly start a pot of potatoes, walk away and the next thing I know, I’ve got hot starchy water all over my stovetop and it’s no day at the beach to clean. I absolutely love this little helper and glad he’s out of his shell and in my kitchen.” —oneyedwilly

Price: $13.99

7.

A Bentgo meal prep kit because is there anything nicer than opening your fridge to see lunch is already made? No. AND these are microwave, fridge, freezer, and dishwasher safe, so you don’t have to bother dirtying dishes when it’s time to chow down!

Target

Don’t forget to snag a cute lunchbox for extra win points!

Promising review: “I love these containers. I was so happy to find the perfect set for me and my fiance. I didn’t want to buy everything separately. This set gets us through a week of any meal prep for the both of us. It has been a few months of us. Overall, they are durable, lasting, easy to clean, and don’t leak. My first impression was concerned about quality because they look kinda cheap, but I have not had any issues.” —MzRee123

Price: $29.99 (available in three color collections)

8.

A compact Ninja food chopper I SWEAR BY for… well, just about everything. I’ve used this thing on celery, carrots, onions, herbs, and more. I don’t think I’ve thrown anything at it that it *won’t* chop. My fave part is that it’s small enough to store inside a stack of mixing bowls in the cupboard, so it’s not a big hulking piece cluttering up my kitchen!

Target

Promising review: “This food chopper is great. It is easy to use, it chops EVERYTHING, and it is super easy to clean. If you get food on the top hole where the blades attach, just use a straw brush and clean with a little water! This is great, it works perfectly. 10/10 recommend.” —Ivana

Price: $24.99

9.

A pack of pre-cut parchment paper that will fit your sheet pans and make your life so much easier. (I’ve fought with the little jagged-tooth boxes for too long. Pre-cut all the way, baby.)

Target

Promising reviews: “I LOVE these! I can’t find them anywhere but Target, so I buy them here all the time. They are the perfect size for a baking sheet and soooo much easier than using a roll that needs to be cut down and always curls up. I highly recommend these!” —SJL

“Love to rip these in half and use them in the air fryer for easy cleanup!” —KS

Price: $3.99 for 25 sheets

10.

A three-pack of Blogilates resistance bands if one of your goals for the new year is to be strong enough to heft all the Taylor Swift merch you’re gonna buy the minute she drops Reputation TV. With two resistance levels and the grab-in-go design that makes it easy to take these wherever you roam, these are perfect for anyone looking to easily incorporate strength training into their life. (Plus, they’re CUTE.)

Target

Promising reviews: “Just what I was looking for! Cute and high quality. Need to be stretched out a little but great after a few uses. Have no had an issue with any breaking and I use them in a sauna at Hotworx.” —Dani

“I wasn’t sure if I’d use these that often, but I totally do! I love using them at home, kind of like how I’d use a cable machine if I were at a gym. My favorite move is stepping on the middle of the band, leaning over, and doing a rear delt fly for my back muscles. They’re also perfect for travel, and you can really do a lot with them. Bonus that the colors are so cute!” —Lauren

Price: $9.99

11.

A Mad Rabbit tattoo brightening balm stick because your ink deserves to be pampered with ease. This moisturizes your tattoos and keeps them at their healthiest, nourished little inky selves!

Target

Promising reviews: “I love the Mad Rabbit Balm Stick! I use it on all my tattoos to make them look dark and fresh. The stick makes it so easy to apply, too! As a tattoo artist, I always recommend Mad Rabbit products to all my clients!!” —Taylor

“This product is so great for tattoos. I’ve been using it for a year, and it keeps my tattoos looking fresh, bold, and bright. It’s even brought fresh life to older tattoos. It is not greasy like other balms, and this stick is so convenient to throw in your bag and have with you at all times.” —tjposanti

Price: $11.99

12.

A bottle of Method antibacterial cleaning spray that smells so ~divine~, I don’t dread spritzing it. While I love a good lemon scent, some counter cleaners are too strong for me, and I found myself avoiding them. THIS ONE, however, is a “bamboo” scent that smells fresh without scorching my nose.

Ashley Schumacher/BuzzFeed

Promising review: “Love this scent! Works well on grease and does an excellent job keeping my kitchen clean.” —JLamb

Price: $4.69

13.

A super slim Logitech Bluetooth keyboard so you can connect it to your phone, tablet, or laptop in a snap. Nothing says efficiency like a full-size keyboard that can fit into your bag.

Target

Promising reviews: “I bought this wireless Bluetooth keyboard for work. We use iPads in our clinic, and it takes me forever to type anything on the default keyboard. I can type way faster with this wireless one. It has saved me! Bonus points for being PINK!” —amber37

“My daughter has been using this keyboard with her laptop (raised on a laptop holder to have it at eye level) for six months, and it’s been working well! This is our first Bluetooth keyboard for a laptop, and we’re pleased. It’s a nice size, and the keys and connection have been working well.” —mmck

A Bissell Little Green portable carpet cleaner your chronic tidier self can use for furniture, carpets, car seats and car seats (iykyk), rugs, and anything else upholstered that has been through any rough oopsies and spills. (WITHOUT having to lug around a huge ol’ machine to do it!)

Target

Promising reviews: “This is my fourth carpet cleaner. Been on the hunt for a good one because my dog has been having bladder issues and is constantly peeing on the carpet. 🤮🤢 This worked so well. Best spot/carpet cleaner I’ve tried thus far. Carpet feels brand-new. 🤩” —Jessica 

“This is amazing, I used it to clean my shaggy rug and my sofa. Impressed with the amount of dirt it picked up for a portable cleaner.” —Measure first

Price: $139.99

15.

A portable space heater perfect for anti-cold gremlins who want to elevate their fave cozy spot but *not* their central heating bill. If you want a warmer room without having to roast your entire home, this is the ticket!

Target

Promising reviews: “Fantastic product for small spaces. My central heat broke and this saved the day! Highly recommend.” —Sima

“Great for a small space. I like that it stops once off the floor, great safety feature. Doesn’t take too much space.” —N A

Price: $44.99

16.

A Papier spiral-bound 2025 planner for keeping all your to-do’s, plans, and events in one organized (EASY!) place. Papier goods are sturdy, too, so feel free to stuff important receipts, appointment reminder cards, and other miscellany in its pages for some lazy, contained chaos. It’s not too late to start!

Target

17.

A paper towel holder that mounts to the wall for easy tearing and with the bonus of not adding one more thing to your cluttered countertops. (BLESS!)

Target

Promising review: “Love this! I chose to hang it under my cabinets, and it was very easy. Nice quick release to change towels. Looks great in my kitchen and bonus putting my other one in the laundry room. Awesome product!” —Pretz

Price: $29.99

A pan and lid rack to banish the unkind words you say to your cabinetry each time you have to find a specific pan or lid. Grumble no more with this handy organizer that will revolutionize your cabinet space!

Target

Promising review: “Buy these! You will not be disappointed. I wish I had purchased them years ago. Super functional and versatile for any cabinet or dish. I purchased three and completely transformed my kitchen storage spaces. AND now have extra room that was absolutely not possible before. As a bonus, this item is made by a woman-owned company as well.” —Taylor T

Price: $25.49 (originally $29.99)

19.

An over-door shoe organizer as versatile as your imagination. Whether you want to store shoes, cleaning supplies, or anything else that could use a good tidying, this handy dandy organizer will keep things off your floor and your to-do list.

Target

Promising review: “This over-the-door shoe rack is a perfect addition to free up closet or floor space in any home. The sturdy canvas cloth design is much quieter than the metal shoe racks I’ve had in the past. Its nice neutral gray color makes my random array of shoes look tidy and uniform. The slots are big enough for my women’s size 9.5 Nike Airs! The mesh pockets at the top are a thoughtful addition and are perfect for holding small accessories or shoes. Also, the front ends of the four over-the-door hooks are capped and stick out just enough to hang ball caps, thin scarves, or handbags.” —AMO

Price: $19

20.

A Dollar Shave Club unscented shaving butter if it’s an “everything shower” kind of day and you want a close shave without smelling like a fruit basket. (And a great product that reviewers say will last you forever!)

Target

Promising reviews: “Both my husband and I use this! You only need a tiny amount each use so the tube last a long time. No more bumps or ingrown hairs. Highly recommend.” —DogMomma

“Amazing stuff! It smells good, you don’t have to use a lot, and it leaves skin very smooth. I definitely recommend this butter shave cream with your razor.” —Bobby

Price: $6.99

21.

A Tile Bluetooth-enabled tracking device because hunting for your keys again does *not* make your life easier. Water resistent and with a three-year battery, this thing will save you oodles of time you would’ve otherwise spent playing a one-sided game of hide and seek with your possessions.

Target

Promising review: “My husband is bad about misplacing his keys, and our two-year-old also likes to carry them off. It’s great that you can just ping the tile, and the noise helps you easily locate your item!” —RyleeH

Price: $24.99 

22.

A toilet cleaning stamp I’ve used for literal years because I like my cleaning efforts to last until the next hyper-fixation cleaning phase. These things seriously stick around and help keep your bowl clean for so long. Clean once, stamp once, and forget about it for a good month or so. (Sometimes I’m wild and stamp twice because it’s fun, okay?)

Target

This comes with six stamps and each of them helps keep your toilet clean for up to 12 days. 

Promising review: “This product keeps my toilet bowl cleaner and keeps it from getting the black trickle line and ring of grossness. The smell is nice, lasts a reasonable amount of time for one or two people using the toilet daily, and it’s a small product that doesn’t take up much space. What’s not to love?” —KMChi

Price: $4.79

23.

A lint roller as self explanatory as all the pet fuzz floating around your home. Leave that nonsense off your cute outfit and stuck to this roller where it belongs!

Target

Promising review: “These are high-quality lint rollers. I use these regularly and have found them to be very helpful to me. I have a cat and she is often on my lap just before I leave my home. I find that I can use this product for quick touch-ups very quickly and effectively.” —greatlakesgirl56

Price: $5.59+ (available in three sizes)

24.

An Anker compact portable charger so you can make sure your phone is ready to go no matter how long you’re out (or how many videos and photos you take!) If you’re like me and hate seeing your battery indicator turn red, throw one of these in your bag to avoid that feeling all together!

Target

Promising review: “Worked great. Charges relatively fast. Lots of battery storage” —Lbspeakeruser

Price: $19.99 (originally $24.99)

25.

A Shark self-emptying robot vacuum cleaner that you can control with the click of a phone app to ensure your floors get sparkly clean while you do…literally anything else.

Target

Promising review: “I was a little skeptical about how this one would work and I’m happy to report that I’m so glad I bought it. I have five cats and two dogs so dust bunnies are inevitable. I have not seen any dust bunnies since I bought it. I love that it does not get stuck on or under furniture, like another one I own from a different brand, and the self-emptying feature is a plus. I am going to be emptying what it collects more frequently than what the features indicate, but this is not a problem for me. I also love how it can be programmed to run at designated times and that it creates a map of your home. The only ‘con’ to it is that it is a bit noisier than I expected, especially when it returns to the doc to self-empty, but not enough to outweigh the benefits.” —jmp

Price: $399.99 (originally $499.99)

26.

A Clorox daily shower spray you can spritz and leave with no annoying scrubbing necessary. (Talk about EASY!)

Target

Promising reviews: “Product does an exceptional job in the cleaning areas needed too be spotless and fresh clean.” –Target Customer

“I use it everyday and is part of my daily routine after showering.” —Shellie

Price: $4.69

27.

A pack of adhesive cord clips for cleaning up your desk/beside table/charging area and not having to fumble around for the cord you need. And because these will stick just about anywhere, you can even place them behind furniture so you don’t have to behold an annoying tangle of cords!

Target

Promising review: “Great quality and works so well! They stick really well and don’t ruin the surface underneath. Keeps my cords nice and organized!” —Abares

Price: $14.99 for a 28-pack

28.

A famouos-for-a-reason dry shampoo perfect for those in-between shower days when your roots just need a little extra love but you don’t have time for a full wash.

Target

Promising review: “Haven’t showered? No problem. I’m in love with this product, immediate results and lasting! I’m so happy I grabbed it; I’ve seen this everywhere and finally picked it up. Definitely recommend over any dry shampoo I’ve ever used.” —Soft

Price: $4.39+ (available in three sizes)

29.

A set of extra large Command hooks that can hold up to 10 pounds of weight without leaving holes in your wall, which means you can say goodbye to wondering where you should hang your hat, your dog leashes, or your delightfully extensive and totally necessary, thank you very much tote bag collection.

Ashley Schumacher/BuzzFeed, Target

While Command does have smaller hooks that I also highly recommend for things like hats, keys, and tote bags in the singular, these bulky buddies are even more versatile, and not just because they hold more weight. The hook is higher, so if you’re like me and have one too many tote bags that all bring you joy and therefore all must stay, the taller hook means more stack-ability and less chance of your bags ending up on the floor. Remember: Even if there’s a lot of something, it’s NOT clutter if it’s loved and stored properly.

Promising review: “I’m using these hooks to hold up curtain rods in different rooms, as well as holding heavy winter coats and bags in my entryway, and these do the job perfectly!” —Diane

Price: $6.99 for a two-pack

30.

A Geologie clear system to kiss blemishes goodbye, good riddance, and see you NEVER. This set includes 20 pimple patches and a tube of blemish buster so you can double team those zits STAT.

Target

Promising review: “This product worked amazing for me. Very effective at healing my pimples. The only thing is, I wouldn’t say the gel is color correcting. It is tinted but it’s very sheer and doesn’t do much for the redness. Not a big deal to me personally but if you want that, it’s a little misleading. It vastly makes up for this in how effective it is at calming a blemish and speeding up the recovery time. I wish I could just buy the patches and gel solo (and wish the gel was offered in a bigger size for a solo purchase!) I personally run out of the patches faster than I use the gel bc a little goes a long way.” —Ig

Price: $11.99 (originally $14.99)

31.

A Scotch-brite scrub and wipe cloth if your sponge isn’t quite cutting it and you want something that can do double duty on dishes and your counters.

Target

Promising reviews: “A household favorite…from scrubbing dishes to wiping up small spills/dribbles.” —Hollie

“These scrub and wipe cloths are the perfect thickness to get into hard to reach places and are tough on food buildup without scratching.” —AnnaP

Price: $2.99 for a two-pack

32.

And finally, a Pick-Up Bricks toy vacuum: If you have littles in your life, they’re gonna love helping you clean up their legos and small brick toys. This machine is designed to get them excited to tidy, which makes your life *so* much easier.

Target

Promising reviews: “This unit is great for the kids to pick up the legos after themselves and you’re turning the chore into a fun event.” —Target Customer

“The quality is wonderful and it’s so easy to use! My 7 year old has no issue charging it and using it to clean his toys. It actually has my kids excited when it’s time to clean up the little toys which I love.” —Nikki

Price: $49.49 (originally $98.99)
