A cult-favorite Creamy Coconut fragrance rollerball reviewers compare to the pricey Sol de Janeiro version.  👀☀️  This is from TikTok-famous small business brand Kuumba Made, known for its luxury scents at ridiculously affordable prices, so you know they're on their game — reviewers especially love how ~beachy~ and long-lasting this sweet but elevated fragrance feels and how nicely it plays with other scents! 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "AYOOOO this is perfect, literally smells exactly like that Sol de Janeiro spray #71 — the perfect beachy, vanilla, and coconut mix, I’m obsessedddd!! I put it on to test on my skin and hours later, it smells like I JUST applied it!" —Isabella Jimenez 

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in six scents and three sizes).

Check out a TikTok of the mosquito-repelling bracelets in action. 

Promising review: "I moved last year from Southern California to North Carolina. Bugs of all types have always been attracted to me but the amount of bites I got last summer was WILD. Someone gave me one of these types of bracelets to use one day and it seemed to work SOOOOOO I decided to buy myself an arsenal to prepare for this summer. I read the reviews and about 99% of them had great results. I've only used this bracelet twice but both times I was outside and un-touched. Delivery was very quick so that was a plus. I'm not fond of the smell, I'm hyper sensitive to smells, but I'd rather have the odor than being chewed alive." —Tracey Agopian

Get a ten-pack from Amazon for$9.99

3. A coconut-scented, ridiculously cooling after-sun body lotion to rehydrate and replenish your skin after long days in the sun or soaking up the drying chlorine of the pool. The whipped texture and delightful scent will have you feeling like a whole dessert 😋. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This product feels like whipped cream. So smooth and silky. Not greasy. Smells delicious and not oily. I applied it for the first time after a day at the pool, and it was just what my skin needed. Very happy with the product." —Aimee Brunson

Get it from Amazon for $10.99.

4. A three-pack of vintage-inspired polarized sunglasses for anyone who needs to stock up on a few "these look like Ray-Bans, but I won't cry into my Baja Blast if I accidentally leave them in the Taco Bell parking lot" pairs this year. These are especially handy because you can match the subtle prints to whatever 'fit you're wearing! 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I’ve been buying these for years. They replaced my Ray-Bans that look identical! Fit great and with the price point I don’t have to worry too much with my kids and being on the go!" —Jessica M

Here's what BuzzFeeder Heather Braga has to say about them: "I purchased these after my prescription changed (yet again) so I couldn't properly see out of my sunglasses. I needed a pair that I could wear to protect my eyes while going on walks with my kids (during which I don't need my prescription glasses). They're perfect! Affordable, get the job done, *and* look cute on my face." 

Get a pack of three from Amazon for $15.19+ (clip the 20% off coupon on the product page for this price; available in 16 sets, as well as two-packs and individual pairs). 

5. A tinted lip balm so close to the same magic as "Black Honey," TikTok's beloved $25 ~universal shade~ from Clinique, that it will genuinely startle you — especially when you see the price. This is a perfect, non-sticky "go-to" lippie that's just a step above the "no makeup makeup" look, giving the perfect subtly polished effect. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

I bought this because I crave that Black Honey and will buy it until the day I die, but I am always paranoid of losing it, so I almost never let it leave my bag. I have tried probably five or six "almost" versions of Black Honey that came close, but this one genuinely spooked me. It has the same easy glide, same buildability, and the same refreshingly hydrating effect. It was a two-pack so I gave one to my BFF, another Black Honey fan, who also could not detect the difference! 

Promising review: "Better than Clinique! I bought this one on a whim but never liked the real Black Honey Almost Lipstick by Clinique, since it tends to run red on me. This shade, in my opinion, is exactly what Black Honey SHOULD be, as it looks more like Black Honey in pictures. For the price, it can’t be beat, so I’m buying more." —HAC 

Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (also available in the pink honey version, and in a two-pack that mixes both!). 

6. A set oflimited edition Band-Aids with retro flower patterns so the next time you get a little ouch, you can be like, "wound care, but make it summer-y." 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Cute, retro, and good quality. Perfect for summertime cuts and scrapes. Comes with three sizes in the box, each in a different pattern." —R&M 

Get a pack of 30 from Amazon for$3.77

7. Sally Hansen's iconic Insta-Dri nail polish perfect for anyone who wants quick touch-ups on their fingers and toes but has ZERO time to spare. If you're looking for a reliable, long-lasting, fast-drying polish to save not just time, but big bucks at the salon, I cannot recommend these enough! 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

I've sworn by these for years — I can't shape my nails to save my life, so I get a manicure once a month and then trade out these colors every week or so in between. The colors are so vibrant and fun, the quick dry is NO joke, and what I love most is these tend to last a solid five to seven days without chipping (and are easily fixed with a touch-up). I am a very busy bean and incapable of sitting still for more than a minute, so these have been a GODSEND. 

Promising review: "This is the best nail polish I've ever used. I have bought it several times and will continue to buy it in the future. I have had my nails done for years at the salon, as well as using the gel polish with the light dry in the past — and now the past year have only used Sally Hansen instant dry nail polishes and am more pleased that I ever was with either of the other options." —J.L. Senn 

Get it from Amazon for $5.98+(available in dozens of colors). 

8. Lottabody's Coconut Oil Foaming Curl Mousse designed for all hair types to give you satisfyingly hydrated, volumized, frizz-free curls at a FRACTION of the price of its competitors. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I have super frizzy, curly hair and live in New England where we have super humid summers. I have been struggling to find a product that de-frizzes my hair without making it look oiled down, and this is it. I put it in my wet hair after washing, towel dried, and put my hair in a pony tail to go to work. My hair was frizz-free all night — even working outside in high humidity. People even asked if I did something to my hair! This is an amazing product for the price. Absolutely buying again and would recommend to anyone with a frizz issue." —Marissa 

Get it from Amazon for $3.98

9. Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hyaluronic Acid Face Moisturizer with SPF 50 (!!) designed to deeply hydrate your skin, help repair its moisture barrier, *and* protect it from UV rays all at once. Reviewers also love that it's truly ~~invisible~~ and acts as a lovely primer for makeup (and is easy to reapply on top of it!). It's also sensitive-skin friendly, with reviewers on tretinoin swearing by it for extra protection. Did someone say ... HOLY GRAIL?? 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Note that the AAD recommends using at least SPF 30 and reapplying as needed for skin protection. You can read about sunscreen myths and facts from dermatologists for more information! 

Promising review: "I have really sensitive skin and I’ve been looking for a good daily sunscreen. This sunscreen makes my skin soft, helps with dryness, and protects me from the sun! It can sometimes feel a little greasy when you first put it on but the feeling quickly goes away! I love it and definitely recommend it!" —Faith Watkins

Get it from Amazon for$19.97

10. And Hawaiian Tropic's SPF 30 Mineral Powder Sunscreen Brush, aka your scalp's BFF this summer — reviewers don't just swear by this for face coverage and a protective setting powder, but for protecting their hairline without their hair getting goopy from sunscreen scalp sprays or regular sunscreen lotion. Bonus — this is a heck of a lot cheaper than its competitors, like the $35 Supergoop  and $36 Brush On Block

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Wish I would have found this sooner! Works great and so far the cheapest option I have found for powder sunscreen. Love that my face isn’t greasy anymore from normal sunscreen!" —Michelle

"I have fine hair so anytime I’m in the sun I get burnt on my scalp. Regular sunscreen make my hair super oily and gross and I cannot stand wearing hats. I'm so glad I found this. You do have to apply it more often, and also it doesn’t work if it gets wet. Love this stuff, it's such a lifesaver." —james

Get it from Amazon for$15.87

11. Olay's Firming Body Lotion full of collagen peptides and a Vitamin B3 complex for *ultra* hydration designed to visibly plump, firm, and moisturize your skin — all at a fraction of the price of other firming lotions, like the internet's beloved $48 Elasti-Cream

Amazon

Psst — there's a matchingelasticity-boosting collagen body wash as well! 

Promising review: "I have spent a lifetime looking for a lotion as good as this one. I am so happy to have tried this, and now I will use it forever. It smells fantastic, comes in a cute bottle, is reasonably priced, and my skin is softer and more hydrated than ever. I've tried everything for dry, itchy, sensitive skin. I use this daily, and I love it. Butters and oils leave me feeling gross and greasy, and most lotions simply do not do the job, and I'll have to reapply constantly. This I apply once daily, and my skin is so soft and healthy now." —Paige

Get it from Amazon for$10.47 (available in four other styles). 

12. Red Robin Original Blend Signature Seasoning, because you shouldn't have to make the trek all the way to that giant red bird's Mojo Dojo Casa House to enjoy the RIDICULOUS, semi-feral joy of his seasoning. This *chef's kiss* blend of garlic, onion, and tomato is one of the most aggressive "if you know you know" seasonings out there and owning it is about to make you the most popular person on your block. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Bold seasoning; this is a must-have! It brings that classic Red Robin flavor right to my kitchen, adding a delicious savory kick to burgers, fries, and more. The blend is well-balanced, versatile, and makes everything taste better." —Taylor Marsh 

Get a set of two from Amazon for $9.98 (available in larger sets). 

13. A ridiculously versatile solar-powered bird bath fountain pump— all you have to do is plop it in water in a traditional bird bath, planter, or backyard decor, and boom! You have a sweet little bird haven that can burble water up to a foot high for all our feathered friends to enjoy. 

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Solatec is a small business that specializes in solar-powered outdoor products. 

Promising review: "This is a fantastic little fountain with very good power. I shoots up to 12 inches in the air in direct sun. For $10 I cannot understand how it can be made and shipped." —Ben Phillips

Get it from Amazon for $10.29

14. E.l.f.'s Squeeze Me More Lip Balm Duo with some real "Laneige, but make it cheap" energy. This mango and watermelon duo is actually the oh-so-tropical remix of the brand's wildly beloved Squeeze Me More Lip Balm that came out last year, so reviewers are already obsessed with how lightweight, hydrating, and deeelicious these go-to balms are. 

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Promising review: "My favorite lippie. I am absolutely in LOVE with E.l.f. products. The consistency is rich and stays on your lips for hours. Considering the cost, these have quickly become my go-to lip product." —Paula Johnson

This is especially lovely for sensitive skin, since the plant milk base is nutrient-rich and sulfate-free to keep your skin feeling eeextra soft and loved. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I am loving this body wash, the smell is incredible and the formula is great. Way better than the original Dove formula body washes. I find that it’s more gentle and cleansing without any weird film left behind. I hope they never discontinue this line because I love it!" —D

Get it from Amazon for $5.99 (clip the $4 off coupon on the product page for this price). 

16. A set of popular, ridiculously affordable wickaway sweatbands for a quick fix to stop the sweat from stinging your eyes (or worse, from leaking sunscreen into your eyes).

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Super happy with this purchase! The price of 10 headbands is about the same as I have paid for one name-brand headband, so I was expecting sub-standard quality. But they are really great. I've worn them and washed them, and they are holding up well. They stay in place when I am working out hard or running. They are great at absorbing sweat, too. They probably stay in place a little better than the expensive headbands I have. The colors/designs are super nice, too. One of the best purchases I have made in some time!" —Terri D

Get a set of ten from Amazon for $13.99.

17. A Yonanas fruit soft serve maker that magics any frozen fruit into an ice cream or sorbet texture so you can have a yummy frozen treat made to your *precise* favorite fruit combos. A lot of folks with dietary restrictions swear by this to get their ice cream kicks! 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I saw one of these in action at a friend's house like five years ago and thought it was just a made up memory, because making ice cream out of solely frozen fruit seems wild. But when I saw a TikTok about it I immediately went to Amazon and bought it. Literally this was the BEST decision of my life. I cannot believe still how amazing this thing is! It makes the creamiest, best tasting fruit ice cream ever. It’s easy to take apart and clean, and super easy to use." —DMCKAY

Get it from Amazon for $41.99+ (available in four colors). 

18. And a shaved ice and slushie maker for reliving your childhood pastime of dyeing your tongue a zillion delicious colors after taking one of these to the face. Bonus: a lot of reviewers use these for ~boozy~ slushies. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Great little crusher. Perfect for summer drinks. Bits of ice are large enough that ice doesn’t melt right away after I filled the glass with cola, and the perfect size for those of us who like to eat crushed ice after the drink is gone." —Linda Stroupe

Get it from Amazon for$29.49.  

19. Eos' Cashmere Skin Collection Shave Oil— yes, that's right, the astronomically TikTok-famous Eos "cashmere" body lotion now comes in shave oil form, just in time for potential spring shaving shenanigans. Reviewers are notably impressed by how close of a shave they can get with this, particularly in sensitive areas, helping spare you from razor burn and ingrown hairs. 

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I am absolutely loving this serum! It creates the smoothest shave I've ever had, leaving my skin feeling incredibly soft and hydrated. The serum glides on easily, providing a close shave without any irritation or nicks. My razor moves effortlessly, and I’m impressed by how nourished my skin feels afterward. The light, refreshing scent is an added bonus! It’s a must-have for anyone looking to upgrade their shaving routine and enjoy a comfortable, irritation-free experience. Highly recommend!" —Shay

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Great product! I bought this for an upcoming summer hiking trip in Utah, but I have been using it for an aerobics class as a headband. I sweat on my head and it runs down into my eyes. Regular headbands get soaked too fast. This really works because it keeps my head cooler and when warms up, I simply drizzle more water on it from my spouted water bottle." —Lepmay

Get it from Amazon for $6.92 (available in 10 colors and in multi-packs).

21. A set of espresso martini instant cocktail tea bags — all the sophistication of tea, the zing! of coffee, and the 😜 of a cheeky cocktail, without the exorbitant bar price tags.  All you have to do is add three ounces of cold water, 1.5 ounces of hard liquor, and the tea sachet into a glass, and you'll have a delicious cocktail in one minute.

Promising review: "I was a bit skeptical when I purchased, but these are actually fantastic. The taste is great, and the bags make it incredibly easy to mix up what would otherwise be complex cocktails quickly and easily. I've had the spicy marg, espresso martini, and old-fashioned versions, and while they aren't exactly the same as the original they are wonderful for making yourself a cocktail at home. Highly recommend." —Meredith 

Get a pack of eight from Amazon for $14.99 (available in four other cocktail styles and larger packs). 

22. A delightfully affordable battery-operated patio umbrella light you can easily install without any tools, so you don't have to do wine and cheese in the darkness if the sun sets before your appetite does. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

 It requires four AA batteries to run (not included). 

Promising review: "This light is great!!! It has three settings to adjust the amount of brightness you need. The lowest level is great for just sitting around your patio table and having a couple of drinks with friends. The brightest setting is PERFECT for playing cards! We play cards a few times a month. There are two 70+-year-olds who did not complain that they couldn’t see. So, works great in my book! 😁" —Mandie Jordan

Get it from Amazon for $8.99.

Promising review: "To say I love these lights would be a understatement. They’re easy to hang, great looking, bright and they work amazingly!!! On a sunny days, these lights charge enough to stay on from sunset to sunrise. Yep! That’s right! They’re still on until sunrise. These are the only brand of solar lights that I’ve ever purchased that last that long (and I’ve gone through more than my share of solar light.). These are DEFINITELY worth the price. You won’t be disappointed!! Btw — this is the fourth set I purchased; I love them that much. The first set I purchased is over a year old and they’re still working as well as they did on day one." —Josie Elliot-Goforth

Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in two lengths). 

24. A pair of lightweight, entirely waterproof cloud pillow sandals for anyone whose feet are pretty little princesses who need to be pampered at all times.

Oh, and it's also GINORMOUS. (And packs up super small!) 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This was a great addition to our tent. It kept sand off our bags, cooler, and chairs. It’s lightweight and comes in its own bag that is easy to carry and put away. It’s worth the cost — the only thing I am going to get for our next beach trip is a little brush to wipe away the sand that gets on it when someone comes back from the beach with sand on their feet." —J. Crouch 

Get it from Amazon for$29.95 (clip the $5 off coupon on the product page for this price; available in two colors).

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Purchased these in prep for our annual Fourth of July party. These things were amazing. We typically have a lot of flies in our backyard. I set these up on our table outside and they kept the flies away. Able to enjoy sitting at the table without having to constantly swat away at flies. I was skeptical at first, but they really do work!!" —Tania K.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Was instantaneous results. Once the light came on, anything flying was immediately drawn to it. I only ran it for less than an hour and needed to clean the catcher bowl. Great product, especially in South Florida where mosquitoes are immune to every spray that's been created." —Glu Mobile

Get it from Amazon for $39.99.

29. A whisper-quiet WiFi-enabled smart air circulator fan you can control via app, Google Home, Alexa, or remote to keep yourself feeling easy breezy all summer long.

Windmill is a small business that specializes in fans, air purifiers, and air conditioners. 

Promising review: "I love this cute little fan! I wanted some airflow in my bedroom and was skeptical about its small size, but I was pleasantly surprised! I ordered the pink fan and it is beautiful. It’s very sleek and minimalistic. What I didn’t realize I would love was the remote control option! I have it positioned on my dresser across the room, and at night, it’s strong enough to blow air directly at me even from across the room. It was a great find for a great price (especially given I was looking at wall mounted options to have the same type of result — I saved a lot of money!)." —Natalie

Get it from Amazon for $59 (available in five colors). 

30. A pair of popular quick-dry water shoes to keep your feet from burning or getting beaten up all summer — reviewers love these for everything from walking on rockier beaches to kayaking to washing their cars. They're flexible and comfy like a sock, but protective against nefarious objects like sharp rocks and stray Legos.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I bought these shoes a couple of years ago before a river hike. UM THESE ARE AWESOME. These shoes feel like socks but with enough of a sole that you can walk on gravel with no problem. It really is like walking barefoot. Also, these are the only water shoes that I have worn that do NOT let a bunch of debris into the shoe making you constantly have to take it off to empty it or just deal with the irritant. You can play on the beach with minimal sand stuck between your toes. Thoroughly impressed by that. So with that, I do recommend if you are a half size to size down so they are snug, otherwise the sock like ability to keep stuff out might not work so well." —Samantha Lindsay

Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in seven sizes and 44 colors).

31. Physicians Formula Butter Glow & Go Stick with similar energy as the $46 Charlotte Tilbury Beach Stick for a smooth, rich, and ridiculously easy-to-apply contour to give your skin that ~sunkissed~ glow with as little effort as possible.

Amazon

Promising review: "I am LOVING this 'ONE AND DONE' product. I'd watched a few videos about how wonderful having this dual-ended item was; blush on one side, bronzer on the other. I needed something easy for travel, and I love creamy textures, so I thought I'd try them. WOW; I'm in love. They glide across the skin, blend out, and look very natural. The value is fantastic compared to other dual-ended makeup sticks. The smell is light and a touch tropical." —Vanessa Sykes

Get it from Amazon for $14.97 (available in four shade combos). 

32. A four-pack of silicone straw soda can lids that are like, "Oh, you're obsessed with Diet Coke? Let me find you a reason to be even MORE obsessed." Reviewers love these not just for the ~thrill~ of a straw, but because the covers make the cans a whole lot more spill-proof, prevent your drink from going flat, and protect your can from bugs and debris during outdoor hangs. 

Amazon

Promising review: "I am obsessed with this! I am a terrible adult and rarely finish my soda because it goes flat (EW). This has been used every day since I got it. Easy to put on and easy to remove. Cinch to clean! It cuts my waste so far down. It stays in place, even when knocked over. I am clumsy, I haven't figured out how to body most days. It does not leak when knocked over. Even violently. Get it! You won't regret it." —Rachael Ryon 

Get a set of four from Amazon for$10.67

33. A set ofwaterproof "wet bags" you will curse yourself for not buying YEARS AGO, because they are tiny little lifesavers when you're on the move.

It even has a little snap closure if you want to hook it to a stroller or bag (and the color combos are TOO CUTE). 

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Get a set of two from Amazon for $19.95. 

34. A set of satin pillowcases that not only have a cooling effect, but are soft on your skin and create less friction for your hair so it won't get as tangled while you sleep. Reviewers especially love these because they're an affordable alternative to ones that typically run $18 per case!

Here's what BuzzFeederElizabeth Lilly has to say about them: "I own several sets of these and even pack them when I travel because I never want to sleep on a cotton pillowcase again after getting used to these beauts." 

Promising review: "My hair has never been better! I got this because of TikTok and it has done wonders for my hair. My hair isn’t frizzy or dull-looking when I get up in the morning." —Aaron Key

BuzzFeeder Elizabeth Lilly also owns this — she packed it as her only bag for a trip to busy trip to Iceland in 2023, and not only did it hold a ton and keep her hands free, it easily fit around her waist over her outerwear. It's still holding up two years later — she also used it for a Panama trip, where it fared well from airports to hanging bridges to a sunrise hiking trip to the top of Panama's only volcano! 

Get it from Amazon for $12.98 (available in 45 colors). 

37. A light up solar frog figurinefor your garden or porch so when you come home from that "just one drink" dinner past midnight, this croaky lil' fella can lovingly judge you for it.
