At Bon Maxie, we’re slightly obsessed with things that make everyday life easier. If something fixes a tiny annoyance, solves a problem you didn’t realise could be solved, or makes your daily routine just that little bit smoother, we’re immediately interested. Which is exactly why we love finding clever accessories that make us think, ‘Why didn’t we make that?’
So here it is: another edition of Handy Accessories We Don’t Actually Sell, this time focused on the bathroom. From clever toothpaste gadgets to shower storage that actually stays where it’s meant to, these smart little bathroom accessories make everyday routines easier.
And as always, they’re all finds from Amazon Australia.
1. Automatic Toothpaste Dispenser
Great for kids, busy mornings or anyone tired of squeezing toothpaste tubes like a stress ball. This wall-mounted dispenser releases the perfect amount of toothpaste when you place your toothbrush against the dispenser. No squeezing, no messy caps and far less toothpaste chaos on the sink.
A small gadget that makes mornings feel a whole lot more civilised.
2. Silicone Hair Catcher
If you’ve ever had to pull a terrifying hair monster out of a shower drain, you already know why this exists. A silicone hair catcher sits flat over your drain and traps hair before it disappears into the pipes. When it fills up, you just lift it off, peel the hair away and pop it in the bin.
Gross? Yes. But extremely useful.
3. Adhesive Shower Shelf
Those flimsy suction shower shelves that fall off at 2am and scare the life out of you? These are not that. This adhesive shower shelf uses strong waterproof pads that stick properly to tiles, holding shampoo, conditioner and body wash without drilling holes into your wall.
A simple fix that makes your shower feel far more put together.
4. Waterproof Shower Phone Holder
If you listen to podcasts, music or need a timer while showering, balancing your phone on the sink is always slightly risky. This waterproof shower phone holder sticks to your tiles and seals your phone behind a clear touch-sensitive cover, so you can still scroll, pause or change tracks without getting it wet.
Perfect for everything showers, skincare timers or anyone who refuses to shower in silence.
5. Stainless Steel Razor Holder
Razors left sitting on the shower shelf tend to live in little puddles of water, which is exactly how they rust, go blunt faster and generally feel a bit grim. This stainless steel razor holder sticks neatly to your tiles and keeps your razor upright and out of the way, so it dries properly between uses. No more balancing it on the edge of a shelf or knocking it onto the shower floor.
A tiny upgrade that keeps things cleaner, sharper and far less annoying.
6. 2-in-1 Spray Hairbrush
You know the drill: one hand holding a spray bottle, the other trying to brush through knots, somehow needing a third hand to make it all work. This spray hairbrush combines both, releasing a fine mist as you brush so you can smooth, detangle and style in one go.
Less juggling, fewer knots and a much calmer way to get out the door.
7. Electric Cleaning Brush Set
Scrubbing grout by hand is one of life’s least joyful activities. Electric spin brushes do the hard work for you, rotating the brush head to break down soap scum, grime and bathroom buildup on tiles, grout and shower screens.
Basically, a power tool for your cleaning routine.
Handy Finds, Smoother Days
The best accessories aren’t always the biggest or most expensive ones. Sometimes it’s the small things—a smarter way to dispense toothpaste, a shower shelf that actually stays put, or a tool that makes cleaning grout far less painful—that make everyday routines feel a lot smoother.
Which is exactly the kind of thinking that inspires what we design at Bon Maxie.
