    And the final flurry of embarrassing products that are so wonderfully weird or oddly specific, you'll be glad you can shop for them from the comfort of your own couch. These are the kind of items that spark curiosity and conversation, but you might not want to explain them to a cashier (or your nosy neighbor).

    toilet seat covers you find in most public bathrooms do the same thing. i've been using them for years. i cut them into the proper-size pieces for my purse, but usually, i just take the whole thing and press it onto my face. (be sure to not take the first couple of ones in the dispenser, tho, for obvious reasons. go back to the 4th or 5th one or so.)
