36 Products You’ll Use All The Time (Especially Now That It’s Warm Out)

BuzzFeed-Shopping·2025-06-03 05:06

1. Essence's Lash Princess False Lash Waterproof Mascara — yes, a version of that internet-famous mascara — because it boasts a waterproof (read: sweatproof) formula that delivers the look of voluminous falsies without the painstaking process of gluing to apply and the fear of your lashes flying off when you're driving with the windows down.

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Promising review: "I LOVE THIS MASCARA!! It has been Louisiana hot, humid weather tested and I did not wind up with raccoon eyes! I bought the waterproof version and am very pleased with it! I just bought some for my best friend, who is a dirt racer, to wear when she races! This came in a sealed plastic overlay. It was easy to remove with a facial wipe. So after previously spending big bucks on the 'fancy big name brands,' I found this gem and am very happy with it." —Bootlegger

Get it from Amazon for $4.99.

2. A longline padded tankthat's basically an affordable alternative to your fave Lululemon top! It's got a supportive design that can be worn from the gym to brunch with the besties and on your post-meal errands. Plus, it's lightweight, so you'll be comfortable wearing it solo at home or layered up on the go.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "LOVE. It is super comfortable to wear and is great for supporting my chest when I go on a run. Doesn't collect sweat, very nice and cool material for hotter environments. I have it is so many colors because I love them so much. HIGHLY recommend!" —Cheyenne

Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (available in women's sizes XS–3XL and 29 colors). 

3. A top-rated, reviewer-favorite 400-thread count cooling sheet set featuring a super soft sateen 100% cotton that's sooooo comfy, you might start taking extra-long naps during the day just to get back in them. 😏 The breathable fabric helps keep you cool on those hot, sticky nights when you need the AC and many fans blowing, but even better: they get softer and softer with each wash!

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Each set includes one fitted sheet and one flat sheet. The twin and twin-XL sizes include one pillowcase, while all other sizes have two.

FYI, "sateen" doesn't mean "satin"; it's a type of cotton weave that feels extra soft. You may have also seen "percale" cotton sheets — that's the other type of weave, which feels crisp. 

Promising review: "Bought these strictly because of the color and cost to use in a guest room. A week after we put these in the guest bedroom, we needed to utilize that bed because we were painting our master. We slept on these and were amazed by the quality for such a low cost. We have always slept on expensive bedding. This set felt just as good. Time will tell how they age, but we have bought another set to use as a spare. Also, I want to mention the cooling effect of these sheets. Both my wife and I love to be cooler rather than warmer when we sleep." —The Dude 

Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in sizes Twin–California King, two packs, and 38 colors).

4. Annnnd a pair of *affordable* down-alternative cooling pillows created with a lightweight allergy-friendly filling and breathable cotton cover, so there's always a cool side of the pillow no matter how hard you sleep. You'll feel like you're comfortably snoozing at a 5-star hotel without having to spend the big bucks to stay.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "My philosophy is you need to love your job and love your bed because that's where you spend most of your hours. Anyway, I don't work anymore but I dang sure love my bed! High-quality mattress, nice linens, and THESE pillows! They are PERFECT!!!! There isn't a single thing that can be improved because they are like sleeping on a cloud that supports you perfectly... 100 out of 10 stars! We stayed at the Aria in Vegas for my bachelorette party and had several rooms... the first morning, we were ALL talking about the pillows! I'm pretty sure these are the same ones!" —Shawna Hathaway

Get a pair from Amazon for $49.99+ (available in three sizes). 

5. A popular Cupshe two-piece bikini with over 10,000 5-star ratings for how cute and comfortable it is, according to reviewers! The faux-wrap top is designed with a self-tie closure for perfect customization and the bottoms have a similar lace-up design to make sure it fits like it was created just for you. You'll wear this once and then probably come back to buy another!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "I literally want this in every size! It’s the first bikini I’ve ever worn, and I love it! I feel really supported at the top and bottom. Love that the sides have ties so you can adjust it that way!" —Danielle Palko

"I love this suit so much I've bought it three times (once I took it to Peru and it got super dirty, so I bought another, then I lost weight and had to buy a smaller size)... I like the suit can be adjusted to fit my fluctuations in weight. The color is just really pretty, but I love this green." —DR

Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and 20 colors).

6. A plunging V-neck one-piece — it has flirty mesh accents on the top and bodice to add a little *lowers glasses* to your pool day style. And like the reviewer on the left, just throw on some jean shorts if you need to run down the ice cream truck for one of those wonky-eyes Powerpuff Girl bars, LOL.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This swimsuit is soooooo cute and fits wonderfully!! I love the mesh detail; it makes it look sexy, but everything is covered, and I feel secure like no bits will flop out. It’s just great, 10/10. Definitely get it!" —Taylor

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "These shades work great. With a freshly cleaned window they stick to the glass quickly, even in Arizona. They fold up easily and stay on indefinitely." —Brad

Get a four-pack from Amazon for $11.99 (also available in two-pack and an animal design).

8. A set of solar-powered jar lanterns with a bundle of string lights on the inside so when the sun goes down your backyard or patio lights up like there's a fairy party happening at Club Gnome.

Get a nine-pack from Amazon for $32.39 (also available in a set of 12).

9. An ice roller to help de-stress your skin and remove puffiness with a few rolls across your cheeks, eyes, and forehead. This innovative tool can be popped in the fridge or freezer, and then it's ready for use! Plus, it can even offer some relief for sinus pain or migraines. Pro-tip: roll it over your favorite sheet mask for a super soothing sensation!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

See it on TikTok here.

The ice roller is designed with a detachable head and handle, so you can store the roller in the freezer separately. When you're ready to use it, simply reattach to the handle (it clicks in place) and roll away! You can also get the double pack, which comes with two detachable heads: one metal and one gel.

Promising review: "So far I have bought a total of three. These are wonderful for headaches, migraines, minor aches, flushed cheeks, overheated or feverish faces, to close pores, to ease stress in the neck and shoulders, and so much more! This is my favorite because it comes with two types of rollers. (Definitely get the one that has the two types of rollers!) The metal gets icy and warms quicker than the gel bead roller. The gel bead roller stays cold for a good while. Both feel great on the skin and roll smoothly with no squeaky sounds. We use them all the time. If you really want to chill your skin for a long time, then I suggest buying more than one and just change the rollers when they get warm. Or if there is a chance a family member may take yours, then definitely buy more than one! This really helps with our migraines and when we get overheated in the garden. Hmmm, with the hot weather coming to Florida, I probably should buy a few more. I definitely recommend this item." —Renee Resseau

Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in nine colors and with two rollers).

You can also check out this ice roller that you fill with liquid yourself, so you can add in anything from essential oils to green tea or even petals.

11. A two-pack of dark spot fading bar soap boasting a revitalizing and hydrating blend of retinol, hyaluronic acid, shea butter, turmeric, and vitamins C and E for a hydrating cleanse to help even skin tone and reduce dark spots on your face, neck, and body if that's something you're looking to do. Say buh-bye to buying swim shorts if your inner thighs bother you (they certainly don't need to, we're pro embracing your dark spots!) — and either way, hello to bikini season!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I’m big, so my inner thighs have always been darker than the other parts of my legs. I’ve tried other products for it but nothing has worked. I HAVE BEEN USING THIS SOAP FOR THREE DAYS AND OMG!!!! My inner thighs are SMOOTHER, and they are ALMOST THE SAME COLOR AS THE OTHER PARTS OF MY LEGS, I'M SO SO SO HAPPY!!!!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

The chair can hold up to 500 lbs. and includes two cushions and installation hardware.

Promising review: "Back to basics — simple, chic, and comfortable. Perfect addition for the backyard, porch, or anywhere you'd like to lounge. There were no installation directions, but they do provide a number of options to work with based on your needs." —afytasuki

Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in three colors).

13. A battery-operated portable fan — it extends to over 3 feet tall and folds down to three inches into the carrying case, so you can take it into any room, your car, camper, or tent. It boasts four speeds, three LED lighting settings, 120-degrees of oscillation, and even a remote control. Seriously, you'll want to take this adorable cooling product everywhere!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I love fans. I have slept with one every night for as long as I can remember. I NEED the white noise to sleep and I love the breeze. I already had a nice sleeping fan and a decent portable fan for travel... This is the most versatile fan I've ever owned. It has every feature I never knew I always wanted. It goes from my lanai, to my kitchen, to my bathroom, and in my suitcase for travel. It is almost perfect! They almost thought of everything. The only thing that would make this more perfect is if there was a charging indicator so I would know when it's almost out of juice. Luckily you can still use it while plugged in so if it runs out of battery power, I can still use it. Other than that, this is the perfect fan and travel companion." —Julie

Get it from Amazon for $89.99+ (available in four colors).

14. A genius veggie chopper that can chop and dice pretty much anything in literal seconds. It comes with four interchangeable dice blades and a built-in storage container that you can use to prep and store food!

Fullstar is a small business that specializes in unique and functional kitchen gadgets.

Promising review: "This is one of my absolute favorite kitchen tools! This is right up there with my stand mixer. I save hours a week using this for dinner prep. I HATE cutting up veggies for dinner and this makes it fast and fun! I can’t believe I didn’t buy one years ago. This is worth every penny. Easy to use and I can just throw it in my dishwasher for clean up. I’m obsessed. I will be buying these as gifts. This is an absolute must-have for everyone." —Reviewer

Get the 4-in-1 chopper from Amazon for $29.99 (available in four colors and five other styles).

15. A pair of stylish, yet subtle slip-on sneakers with a breathable knit material and antimicrobial lining that helps kill bacteria and prevent shoe odors.

Atoms is a Brooklyn-based, South Asian-founded small business specializing in comfortable, everyday shoes.

Promising review: "I love my Model 000 white sneakers. The first time I wore them was on a trip, and I wore them for two days straight. There was no break-in required. They are my new favorite shoes! They are lightweight but provide good support, too. I washed them, and they came out looking brand new, and they dried really fast." —Julia W.

Get it from Atoms for $145 (available in women's sizes 5–16.5 with quarter-size increments, men's sizes 3.5–15 with quarter-size increments, and seven colors).

16. A pair of retro-chic double-bar aviators designed with polarized lenses to effectively block out the sun and reflective glares, keeping your eyes protected in style. I definitely won't judge you for nabbing more than one pair of these to complement your favorite warm weather styles, but I doubt you'll even let these out of your sight!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

BTW, these sunnies are UV400 for the ultimate sun protection!

Promising review: "Absolutely have become my favorite pair of sunglasses, and I have many pairs. Very trendy and quite affordable. I am shocked at how durable they are for the price point. My sunglasses take a beating on my head, thrown in my bag, and I usually break them in no time, but these have stood up to my normal wear. They offer solid sun protection but not super dark, which I love. They fit the face very well, not oversized and huge but just right for me. Love them!" —NittanyLion

Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available in eight colors).

17. Orrrr a three-pack of vintage-inspired polarized sunglasses, so you can embrace summer by literally carrying a pair of glasses in your go-to bag, your car, and another one near the door, so you can grab them on your way out! These are also designed to keep your eyes fully protected from UV rays and help reduce annoying glares, making them perfect for most outdoor activities.

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Plus, each pair is just different enough to effortlessly pair with all your summer outfits — all for under $7 a pair!

Amazon, www.amazon.com

BTW, this tumbler is dishwasher safe!

Promising review: "The BrüMate is an absolute game-changer for anyone looking for a reliable drink container. Its 100% leakproof design means you can confidently toss it into your bag without worrying about spills, making it perfect for on-the-go use. The durability is outstanding; it holds up well against daily wear and tear, maintaining its sleek look and performance. Most impressively, it keeps beverages cold for a full 24 hours. Whether you’re hiking, at the office, or relaxing by the pool, the BrüMate is the ultimate companion for keeping your drinks icy cold. Highly recommend!" —Horace Dixon

Get it from Amazon for$39.99+ (available in 16 colors and two sizes). 

19. And a cylindrical ice mold that you can use over and over to create slower-melting, hollow ice that actually fits in your go-to Stanley cup. Plus, the ingenious hollow design helps keep your straw from being awkwardly angled or stuck in a hardened mass of ice cubes!

www.amazon.com

The tray makes three different sizes of ice cubes that will fit in 20-oz., 30-oz., and 40-oz. tumblers.

Promising review: "I use these in my BruMate and Meoky cups, and they fit perfectly. I always struggle with getting my straw through the ice and in the middle so the lid will close. These ice cubes stay on the edge of the cup and allow plenty of room for the straw." —sarah schultz

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in six colors and two sizes).

20. AnSPF 50 Airy Sunstick Smoothing Bar with a curved design to glide effortlessly over your skin for quick touch ups throughout the day. This lightweight, protective balm is perfect for wearing underneath your makeup because it delivers a matte finish and zero white cast!

Promising review: "NO WHITE CAST! I've been looking for a stick sunscreen and this was just exactly what was needed!! I'm a medium-toned black woman and looking for something without a white cast is always a challenge. I have applied it on my bare skin and there isn't a white cast at all! It's a 'soft matte' finish, for sure, and looks like natural skin. Like you're not wearing anything at all." —Martina

Get it from Amazon for $17.02

21. Orrr a TSA-friendly, water-resistant Neutrogena SPF 50 sunscreen stick for your face *and* body, so you can stay protected at home and on your spontaneous beach trip to Costa Rica after you saw the unbeatable flight prices while perusing the internet last night. 👀

Amazon

Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly has to say: "I first bought this for a weeklong Croatian vacation two years ago when I did carry-on, and as long as you are *thoroughly* reapplying, this stuff stays on pretty well. On a beach club afternoon, I did haphazardly reapply and missed a strip on one arm, but I tend to do that with spray-on or lotion sunscreen, too. Since then, I've packed this for any trip I've been on, including a two-day Disneyland trip where I toted this around in my bag and shared with friends. I sometimes carry it with me in my purse on my everyday adventures because I know it's so easy to apply. Also worth mentioning...I am about the palest lady you've ever seen and swear by daily application of sunscreen. But when on a beach trip, I'm constantly swimming in the water and sweating. So yeah, this stuff works."

Get it from Amazon for $9.88.

22. Plus, a pack of sunburn-preventing UV stickers to let you know when it's time to reapply your sunscreen because it changes colors when your first application has worn off! They are super thin and sweat- and water-resistant, so you can have an active beach day or outdoor adventure without worrying they'll fall off.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I am in LOVE with the concept of these. I cannot tell you how many times I asked myself the question, 'Should I put on more sunscreen?' when it's too late and I'm as red as a lobster. Big fan of the packaging and portability.  A really ingenious idea. Here is to a happier, healthier future ahead!" —CopperStad

Get a set of 16 stickers from Amazon for $16.49.

23. A handy portable car vacuum, which plugs into your 12-volt car outlet with a stretchy cord and three detailing attachments to get into all those hard-to-reach places. Forget about dragging your household vacuum down; you can use this to clean out your car after your annual beach week in Cape Cod with your college roomies year after year!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Included with the vacuum are a carrying bag, filter brush, spare HEPA filter, and flathead, extendable, and brush attachments.

Promising review: "It's been challenging to keep a black interior vehicle clean, living on a farm, with dirt driveway. ThisWorx corded car vacuum cleaner is the perfect solution. The slim cleaner has powerful suction, plugs into the cigarette lighter. The flexible hose nozzle reaches hard to reach places, including under and between seats. The 16-foot power cord will easily reach from the cigarette lighter to the back area of my SUV. My most used tool is the brush nozzle, excellent for cleaning contour seats. It's easy to clean the filter, just press the vacuum release button and shake out dirt. The simplicity, light weight, and functionality of this car vacuum cleaner will especially be appreciated by [anyone]. Highly recommend." —Patricia J.

Get it from Amazon for $21.89.

24. A Bug Bite Thing suction tool that helps remove insect venom and saliva after a bite to help relieve itching so you can keep enjoying your day at the park without feeling like your skin is on fire.

www.instagram.com, www.amazon.com

Just FYI, some reviewers mentioned the suction power is pretty strong, so use it carefully!

Promising review: "I am a magnet for bites of all kinds and carry topical and medicines with me at all times — so I figured this would be a good product to see if it really works. I woke up with a bug bite on my arm so I used this little tool (three times per the instructions) — immediately after using, it stopped itching! And less than 24 hours later the bump/bite was gone! There is a very faint red mark from using the thing, but a small price to pay IMO. Bottom line: it’s awesome. I’m carrying it with me everywhere!" —Rebecca

Get it from Amazon for $9.95+ (available in five colors and multipacks).

25. A Dash single-serve ice cream maker if you've been eyeing the splurge-worthy Ninja Creami, but can't convince your budget to make room. This more affordable option is not only smaller, but it can also create the same delectable DIY frozen treats (read: ice cream, froyo, sorbet, etc.) in less time than it takes to watch an episode of The Office. Summer just swung in your favor because now you don't need to chase down the ice cream truck as it flies down your street!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Who needs an expensive Ninja Creami when you get the same results [without] having to freeze the mixture? You freeze the base, and it makes ice cream/sorbet/frozen treat in minutes! I leave the base in my freezer and don't need to 'prep plan', I make what I'm craving, unlike the Creami, where you have to wait to enjoy the next day." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $21.99 (also available with an extra bowl).

26. Nars soft matte foundation — one BuzzFeeder swears by this for oily complexions. Probably because it's designed with micro-algae and bio hyaluronic acid to deliver a matte finish that's also shine-, transfer-, and sweat-proof for up to 16 hours. Yup, sounds like witchcraft. 🔮

Jordan Grigsby / BuzzFeed

FYI — the micro-algae and bio hyaluronic acid work together in the formula to help control excess sebum and keep the skin hydrated underneath — plus, it resists oxidation, so the shade stays its true color!

Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping contributor Jordan Grigsby has to say about this foundation: "About two weeks ago, I had a rough day which meant I was gonna treat myself cuz one thing ima always do is give myself princess treatment. So I filled my Sephora cart with beauty products I'd been dying to try. I knew I wanted a new foundation cuz all the high-end ones I love are great but they have their flaws. If it keeps me matte, it oxidizes, if it doesn't oxidize, I'm oily by the end of the day, and some even oxidize and leave me oily. I went to good ol' TikTok to see what people with oily skin were using and I found a lot of people who worked at Sephora saying they loved this foundation for oily skin. And since TikTok recommendations haven't failed me yet, I threw this in the cart. I didn't have super high expectations but I was excited to try. I used this then sprayed with my One/Size setting spray and holy crap, I found the miracle combo. I always forget to take pics but the gif above is me at 7 p.m. after having my makeup on literally all day. I did not blot once. For me, that is unheard of. My skin doesn't get dewy, it gets as oily as Five Guys fries and it's so annoying. I've never had a foundation work this well and do everything it says it'll do. This is hands down the absolute best foundation I've used for my oily skin and I've tried everything from Estée Lauder to Lancôme and this Nars foundation ateeeeeeee and didn't leave a single crumb. This is now at the top of my list. An oily-skinned person's dream come true, really."

Get it from Sephora for $45 (available in 25 shades).

27. A professional-grade callus-removal gel to use as you soak your feet and literally do a triple take watching cracked, dead skin slough off with the help of your favorite foot file. Sandal season, here we come!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Best foot callus remover I have ever used! I read a lot of the reviews before purchasing this product. Most callus removers I have purchased in the past were not very effective. So, I was encouraged by the reviews. I saw that a lot of reviewers mentioned being very careful not to leave it on longer than three or four minutes. My feet were the softest they had ever been. Love love love." —Cheri whisker

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three scents and an extra strength version)

28. A set of seamless "invisible" underwear — you're going to be obsessed with them after realizing you can barely feel them when wearing them under even your most body-clinging pieces. Bike shorts this summer without a constant wedgie or visible camel toe? These ultra-soft no-show panties have to be worn to be believed! And if you're not into full-coverage underwear, reviewers are obsessed with these seamless thongs!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Check out a TikTok of the seamless underwear in action. 

Promising review: "These are my new favorite. They are comfortable and do not show under all my clothes. They are super soft too and hold up all day without gapping. I have been buying Victoria’s Secret underwear for many years spending unnecessary money. I’ll repurchase these over and over again." —Joshua

Get a set of six from Amazon for$19.99 (available in women's sizes XS–XL and 12 sets). 

29. Speaking of: a pair of bike shorts that boast so much stretchy comfort, once you put them on, you'll immediately go back to buy a pair for every day of the week. Seriously, from lounging around at home to getting your workout in — you will never take these shorts off. Plus, they have pockets!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Samantha Wieder included these on her "20 Products From Amazon I Fell In Love With This Year" and here's what she had to say: "I was pretty late to the bike shorts game, and I'm not really sure why. 9/10 times these days I'm dressed with comfort as my main priority — when you work from home, you find yourself buying more pieces with comfort (and breaks to go for a walk/the gym) in mind. I had tried bike shorts from other brands I wasn't the biggest fan of, but finally stumbled upon these, and they're too good. For starters, they're SO comfortable. Second, they have POCKETS! Super useful when I'm out and about and need a spot to put my keys and wallet but don't want to carry a bag! Third, you really can wear these anytime for anything. I wear them to work out, lounge around the house, etc. These bike shorts with an oversized tees or sweatshirt = kinda the most perfect outfit combo to ever exist..."

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–3XL, three inseams, and 29 colors).

30. Cushionaire sandals designed to keep you comfy with a suede insole that contours to your foot for a *literal* perfect fit and flexible footbed. When you're making your way through the state fair, theme park, festival, or wherever else this summer, you'll be stylish and have zero worries about your dogs barking at the end of the day. *woof woof*

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Super supportive. Most comfortable sandals I own. I had these in a tan color and loved them so much I bought the black ones. They have nice arch support and are pretty secure for a slide sandal. I walked for hours on a Saturday in these and my feet felt great. My back also felt good — not like after wearing the regular flat flip-flops. I will probably get another color. They run very true to size. You can tighten or loosen both straps for a more snug or loose fit as needed." —Lisa Lazaro

Get them from Amazon for $34.98 (available in women's sizes 5–12, including wide sizes, and 21 styles — not all styles available in all sizes). 

31. Orrrrrrr these adventure-ready hiking sandals also featuring adjustable ankle straps, a traction rubber sole, and high arch support. Instead of breaking your budget on name-brand sandals just to feel sturdy on the sand when you head to the beach this summer, try these versatile shoes out and spend the money you saved on a much-deserved ice cream after being outdoors for hours.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I wasn’t sure about the straps being enough to keep the shoes on my feet, but they were so comfortable and stayed in place without cutting into my feet as the day went on. I was able to walk around the zoo for seven hours with these sandals on and my feet were perfectly fine at the end of the day. The arch support is much nicer than your average sandal." —Erin

32. A sleek 3-in-1 handheld fan — besides cooling you down at any boiling outdoor occasion, this gadget also charges your phone and shines a flashlight at the touch of a button, so basically it deserves a place in your purse or backpack year-round. Steve from Blues Clues probably wishes he had this on-hand instead of a handy-dandy notebook!

Promising review: "A lifesaver! The compact design makes it easy to carry in your bag or pocket. The fan's performance is impressive; it generates a strong breeze for its size, instantly cooling me down on hot days. The noise level is pleasantly low, perfect for use in quiet environments. The battery life is impressive, lasting through extended outings. It's a must-have for anyone looking to stay cool and refreshed during summer or while traveling. We are thrilled with this handy little fan!" —Allie

33. A reusable XL gel ice pack that can stay cold for about a half-hour, which is just time enough for you to cool off after an intense workout, walking the dog on a ridiculously hot day, or even just coming inside after a quick screen break for some sunshine. 😭 It's hot out there, y'all!

Promising review: "This is an excellent ice pack for injuries, but I also found it to be surprisingly useful when it was really hot this summer and the power was out as a result of a recent hurricane. Sitting and laying on the ice pack really cooled me down and felt amazing!! At the time, I wished that I had bought more than one." —E. J. Tompkins

34. A portable dehumidifier, which will really come in handy when fluctuating spring temperatures and sporadic rainstorms lead to sticky, humid interiors. This tiny powerhouse can collect up to nine ounces of excess moisture in the air from a room each day and is even designed with a seven-color light function, so it can double as a nightlight as it runs.

It boasts a transparent tank, so you can see the water collection volume and effortlessly remove it for emptying or cleaning. It also has an auto shut off for when the tank is full!

Promising review: "This little thing sucks some serious water out of the air. I have to empty it sometimes, as often as every other day. Before, I used to wake up drenched in sweat even when it wasn't particularly hot in my room, and now I can sleep through the night. It keeps the humidity down to a bearable level." —Chocolate Latte

Get it from Amazon for $39.99.

35. A bottle of Nyx matte setting spray because you want to be confident that your makeup actually makes it to *and* through the day without worrying about sweating, crying, or wiping it off. You're going to depend on this for those 90-degree daytime functions!

Promising review: "Expensive isn't always better. I tried this spray before spending the day outdoors in 90-degree heat at Disneyland, and the only place my makeup moved was on the tip of my nose because I have allergies and use a lot of tissues. But otherwise it looked as fresh as it did when I put it on. I’ve used Mac and Urban Decay setting spray and they never worked as well as this stuff. I am completely amazed. Definitely give it a try." —DH

Get it from Amazon for $9.97+ (available in two sizes, and also dewy and radiant finishes).

36. A pair of slip-on pointed-toe ballet flats to make you feel like you're walking on cloud nine with a comfy memory foam insole. Plus, they're machine washable, so you never have to worry about wearing sweaty, smelly flats to work this summer!

Even though they are machine washable, these flats are air dry only! BTW — these a much more affordable option to the popular Rothy's and Vivaia styles if you're trying to stick to a budget!

Promising reviews: "They are SO comfortable and breathable, and my poor footsies are ruined from wearing heels every day when I was younger. These look fabulous and feel great. What a great find! I’m gonna have to buy them in another color now." —JeGo

"I love these shoes. So comfortable and stylish AND the dreaded stinky flats can be avoided as they are fully washable. I’ve washed them several times now and they come out looking brand new every time." —Marie
