BuzzFeed-Shopping·2025-07-08 15:06

1. A super sleek and adorable handheld fan you can easily fold up once you've cooled off. You can also use the handle to prop it up as a space-saving desk fan for the days when your office is super stuffy. Oh, and did I mention it triples as a flashlight and portable battery charger?!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

See a TikTok of the handheld mini fan in action.

Promising review: "Bought this after seeing it on TikTok, and wow. Where has this been all my life? A portable charger (extra, because I already have one), a fan with two settings (this kept me cool during my brother’s outdoor college graduation), and a flashlight (perfect for finding my phone when I drop it in my car). It’s a great little thing that adds that extra EXTRA-ness to your life." —Angie

Get it from Amazon for $17.09+ (available in six colors).

2. A portable Thermacell mosquito repellent device, which is bound to become your new summer BFF. No seriously, you might start planning road trips and rosé nights together. Just pop in one of the repellent cartridges, power it on, then kick back as it repels mosquitoes up to 20 feet away. The best part? The battery is rechargeable, so you can carry this around with you everywhere. 

Krista Torres / BuzzFeed

BuzzFeed writer Krista Torres has been loving this lately: "I don’t know what it is about me, but mosquitoes love me — I always end up with the worst bites, no matter what I try. I’ve tested so many different products over the years, most of which barely make a difference. So when I was gifted a Thermacell, I didn’t expect much. But I set it up in the backyard the other weekend when it was super hot out and the bugs were already starting to find me. I was pleasantly surprised that it worked! I didn’t notice any bites after that, which felt kind of like magic. I’ll definitely be using it all summer, and I’m already getting one for my mom because she’s just as much of a mosquito magnet as I am."

Get it from Amazon for $24.70+ (available in six colors and with a rechargeable battery that lasts either 5.5 hours, six hours, or nine hours. Refills are available here.)

3. A Lume acidified body wash that's designed to help control odor for a whopping 24 hours! That $3.75 shower gel you've been loyal to since high school simply can't do that. It's also formulated with mandelic acid to help brighten hyperpigmentation with continued use. And yes, it's safe to use on sensitive areas!

Promising review: "This body wash is a MUST for me. It really works. I don’t get musty or stinky when I sweat! Sad to say, but I was sick for three days and stayed fresh until the third day. I will keep buying Lume, because it works well to cut odor." —Shirmel

Get it from Amazon for $18.18+ (available in five scents and also in two-packs).

4. A bottle of Burt's Bees sunburn lotion because picnic-at-the-beach season is finally here. This will save the day when you forget to apply SPF on one of your summer adventures — the soothing blend of aloe and coconut oil will help calm your skin in no time.

www.amazon.com

The two reviewer photos above were taken four days apart. 

Promising reviews: "Absolute holygrailof lotions. This is my favorite lotion of all time. If you get a sunburn this stuff is awesome. It soothes the pain and prevents peeling and helps keep your tan. I also use it just for moisturizing after the shower and even for razor burn." —Jason R 

"Holy grail of after-sun care. Best after sun care I have ever used! everyone in my family uses this, we all burn easily and this takes care of a sunburn almost over night and turns it into a tan!" —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in a pack of three).

5. A cult-favorite foot file that'll grind away at calluses and have your heels and toes looking silky smooth and ready to slip into your go-to sandals. There are many foot files out there, but thousands of reviewers say this one works like a charm.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "OMG, these should be standard issue to every human. I’ve bought them all: the cheap foot files, the expensive ones, the Ped Egg, and even a foot file from that direct sales nail wrap company. None of those remotely compare to this one. I thought I was reduced to course heels forever; no more! With just one use, my heels are fabulous! The callouses this thing removed was absolutely disgusting, but I couldn’t be happier. You won’t be disappointed!!" —JMart

Get it from Amazon for $9.99.

6. A bottle of Fur Oil, which will be your new best friend for soothing your skin after hair removal. It uses tea tree oil to potentially prevent ingrown hairs and jojoba and grape seed oils to help reduce redness and irritation from current razor bumps. Those last two oils mean you can even use it to condition your cuticles, scalp, and to seal split ends. I just looked up "multitalented" in the dictionary, and it just says "see: Fur Oil."

Fur

Promising reviews: "I am prone to ingrown hairs. I have VERY coarse pubic hair and every time I shave, I get razor bumps and ingrown hairs as the hair starts to grow back. Very embarrassing. This has led me to lean more toward trimming that shaving. I decided to try to shave one more time — well, I used Nair and removed my pubic hair from my genital area. I used Fur Oil every day morning and night after the removal, and even as the hair grows back and beyond. I would also exfoliate the area about two to three times a week with a coffee scrub that I got on here. The hair has started to grow back with zero bumps or ingrown hairs. It has actually been over a month and still no issues. This has never happened to me before. I have never not removed hair down there and not had ingrown hairs and hair bumps. This is a new experience for me, and I am loving it. I have even removed hair again since then and still no problems. My only complaint is the size of the bottle, and the smell is so-so. It is a very small bottle for the price. I will continue to use this combination of products, though, because I know it works. I am satisfied." —In the know

"Recommended to me by my waxer. I was a little hesitant at first because it's pretty expensive, but I haven't had a single ingrown hair since using this oil. I am diligent on application of the oil, and it's been great. It lasts — I've been using it for about two months, and there's still a ton in the bottle." —Megan Harmeyer

Fur is a small business specializing in post-hair-removal products.

Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in two sizes). 

7. Undersummers anti-chafing shorts to protect your thighs from friction when you wear your fave dresses and skirts — because nothing ruins a perfect summer day like realizing your thighs are gonna pay the price. And don't worry, these are super stretchy and moisture-wicking, so you won't have to sacrifice comfort to keep the chafe at bay.

Amazon

They're machine washable!

Promising review: "I have quite a few skirts that I love to wear in the summer. I wouldn’t enjoy my summer skirts nearly as much without my Summeralls! Great fit, silky smooth, non-binding, good quality, and not hot at all. I think I have seven pairs and plan to have them forever." —BigBlueFan33

Get them from Amazon for $14.05+ (available in women's sizes S–5X, six colors, and in packs of two).

8. Or an all-over anti-chafe balm for anyone who is not actually about that hike life but still lets their super-active friends convince them to tag along. You can swipe this on your thighs, ankles, feet, neck, armpits, or anywhere else that needs some extra protection from the friction that's threatening to ruin your serene afternoon.

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Promising review: "This stuff really is awesome. It really works, and I don't know where it has been all my life. I started looking for something for thigh chafing after running into a few issues (not fun). It is super easy to use; just slide it on like you'd use deodorant." —SweetPea

BodyGlide is a small business that specializes in chafe-preventing personal care products.

Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in three sizes; also available in an anti-blister balm).

9. And a tube of anti-friction foot balm so you can finally wear those stylish but way-too-tight shoes you love without getting painful blisters. It's even infused with vitamins A and C to add some moisture to dry feet while keeping them protected.

Amazon

Promising review: "I thought this stuff was a bunch of BS; I was like, pssh, what a waste of $8 on Amazon for this little thing. Well, I put it on today on spots where my flats rub off the skin. My feet survived an entire day INTACT! I highly recommend it. This product made wearing shoes that rub on your ankles/backs of your feet doable!!!!" —Jamie

Get it from Amazon for $8.99.

10. A pack of Dr. Scholl's Moleskin padding strips to protect your feet from painful shoe pressure — we are aiming for a blister-free summer 2025!! They're thin enough that you'll probably forget you're even wearing them, and reviewers say they actually stay in place!

Amazon

You get three moleskin pads that measure 4 1/8" x 3 3/8" each.

Promising review: "Used this last night on the back of my ankles because my new Converse are hard stiff and have been leaving my feet with raw blisters. This is comfortable and adheres strong, did not slide off, and stayed in place perfectly for 8+ hours. It was my first time using this product and will 100% be using it again." —Sandra Mullen

Get a pack of three from Amazon for $5.42.

11. Lume's whole body deodorant WITH sweat control — it has the same odor-eliminating goodness of the original formula with added antiperspirant power! Spread it on your pits, skin folds, privates — anywhere external that needs extra protection while you gallivant around in the summer sun. Pro tip: apply it at night for best results so your skin can properly absorb it.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I love the new Sweat Control formula! To put it to the test, I applied it in the morning after showering. It endured a day and night of hot flashes, followed by morning exercise and cleaning house the following day. There was no stink at the end of the second day. I also love that it isn't turning my tops yellow like the old formula did. I highly recommend the new Sweat Control formula." —Lisa M.

Get a pack of two from Amazon for $36.99 (available in three scents and an unscented formula).

12. And a pack of 30 aluminum-free deodorant wipes so you can quickly freshen up those pits while you're hitting the town in a sunhat like the summer diva you were destined to be. These are super easy to carry around, and just a few swipes will help neutralize odors and leave behind a tropical coconut scent.

Amazon

These are aluminum-free, so they help stop odors, but they don't stop sweat.

Promising reviews: "This is my go-to product after the gym. I hate feeling/being sweaty/sticky. And it smells so good." —Amazon Customer

"I have always suffered from bad odor on my underarms since I have very delicate skin, so I can't use strongly scented deodorants. I'm always trying out cream deodorant or gels, but it either irritates my skin or it doesn't stop my bad odor. THIS IS THE BEST INVENTION EVER. I LOVE IT! I can't believe that something finally works! My armpits don't smell bad. I can finally move my arms freely. The scent is wonderful; I love the smell, and it's not harsh on my skin. Even after a long day, my underarms are still smelling like coconut." —Vicky Reyes

Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (also available in packs of two and four).

13. A sand-removal bag you'll want in your beach bag at all times going forward — because beach trips are the best but removing sand is the worst. Just pat the bag to disperse some of the talc-free powder inside, then wipe it over your skin and watch the sand just glide right off! It even comes with a waterproof carrying pouch so you can keep it safe in between uses.

Amazon

Check out the sand removal bag on TikTok!

Promising review: "We recently moved to a beach area, and we are constantly there. This item has changed our entire lives! It lasts decently long (depending on how much you use it), it smells super good (not at all like baby powder), and it's super effective. It has saved me from vacuuming my car at least 1x–2x a week. I even use it on my dogs's paws and bellies to make sure they're taken care of. I will definitely be buying the refill and another baggie to have exclusively in the car." —Gabbs Uresti

Shakalo is a small biz based in San Diego.

Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (also available in a three-pack). 

14. A pack of hypoallergenic body wipes for the days when you need to skip the shower and take the lazy route instead. We've all been there. These are infused with aloe so your skin will feel refreshed, clean, and silky smooth, even on those scorching summer days.

Goodwipes

Promising review: "I bought these for a long holiday where I anticipated hiking in remote areas without the opportunity to do a whole cleanup at a hotel before going out for dinner. Tho I was never quite that dirty/smelly, even on regular days in the city that were unexpectedly humid or travel days of hopping between airports and train stations, these came in clutch to make sure constant freshness was a quick wipe away." —candi

Get a pack of 10 from Amazon for $12.99.

15. A bottle of Happy Nuts Comfort Cream — an aluminum-free lotion-to-powder formula that's designed to keep the ~downstairs area~ dry, comfy, and stank-free. If your... um ...🌎 globes 🌎 are susceptible to chafing in warm weather, you might want to keep a few bottles in stock.

Happy Nuts, Amazon

The formula is aluminum-free, so it won't stop sweat, but the tapioca powder can help absorb it.

Promising review: "This stuff is 5–10 times better than regular powder! It instantly soothes irritation, deodorizes after a shower, and quiets the chafe after long sessions on the treadmill. I can't recommend it enough! Stop buying/using Gold Bond and other similar powders, and start using this. I'll be buying two more tubes in the near future." —Devin G.

Happy Nuts is a small business specializing in grooming products.

Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in the original sandalwood zest scent or unscented, and packs of two and three).

16. Or Carpe's Groin Powder that's not only silky smooth but also absorbs sweat thanks to the corn starch base. While it's specifically designed to be safe to use on the groin, some reviewers have had success using it in skin folds and other sweaty areas. Oh, and the delightful white jasmine scent is a welcome bonus.

www.instagram.com

This isn't an antiperspirant, so it won't stop sweat, but it will soak up sweat to keep you dry and comfortable!

Promising review: "I have recently lost a lot of weight and have skin that hangs over in my belly area. I have tried several products to help with the sweating that occurs, which leads to abscesses on a monthly basis. I finally saw this product and decided to give it a try. I am truly amazed at how happy I am with the results! The lightly scented powder keeps me dry without caking, and I have not had the hint of an abscess since starting it. I love it! Thank you for coming up with such a great product!" —Tammy

Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (also available in packs of two or three).

17. Or a pack of SweatBlock wipes, which might be the most aptly-named product ever; they truly block the sweat. They're super easy to use: dab the wipe on your underarms, let it dry for 3–5 minutes, let it sit overnight, then clean with soap and water in the morning. Once you do that, you'll be protected from excess sweat and odor for up to seven days. 

www.amazon.com

Each box lasts two months!

Promising review: "For anyone who might be a skeptic, please allow me to put you at ease. If you have hyperhidrosis, meaning it can be 9 degrees outside and you're still sweating under your arms, this product has the potential to change your life. I would sweat THROUGH a sport coat before noon. Enter the Sweat Block product. I've had it for three weeks, and it is life-changing. I DO NOT sweat under my arms anymore. I'm still on the original box that I bought three weeks ago. I had to write a review after I was cleaning the garage today in 85-degree heat...I was sweating through my shirt on my back...BUT NOT MY UNDERARMS. It is amazing!" —Frosty McGee

Get a 10-pack from Amazon for $19.99+ (also available in packs of two or three boxes).

18. Or!!! An aluminum-free Sol De Janeiro Rio Deo deodorant that not only helps prevent odors but is also available in four of SDJ's iconic scents (The "Cheirosa '62" scent is the same as Bum Bum Cream btw!) It's also designed to help soothe skin, and reviewers say it actually holds up all day.

Amazon

Because this is aluminum-free, this won't stop sweat, but it will help prevent odors.

Promising reviews: "I love the smell of this deodorant and it is the only one I’ve found that doesn’t chemically burn me. Finally found my holy grail deodorant." —Zoey G.

"Holy grail. I switched over to aluminum free deodorant years ago. Since then I’ve been searching for one that would actually work and doesn’t give me a horrible rash. My armpits have horrible reactions to arrowroot powder, baking soda, and cornstarch. Right before I tried this deodorant, I had a horrible rash. Within a few days it was cleared up and my armpits felt so good. Seriously this deodorant is amazing and smells wonderful." —Deanna and Alex

Get it from Amazon for $18 (available in four scents and refills).

19. Seamless bra liners you'll wonder how you ever got by without. Simply place them in your bra and let the moisture-wicking fabric do its magic while keeping you extra comfy.

www.amazon.com

FYI: They're machine washable!

Promising review: "This is one of those things that I wish I'd found years earlier. I've suffered from stress-induced under-boob sweat for most of my adult life. Also, I'm a lifelong Seattle girl who gets upset when it's warmer than 65° outside. So when I stumbled upon this product, I was curious enough to buy a small pack. And yes, I've come back for MORE! For real, I won't put on a bra without one of these liners now. It absorbs all the moisture from heat and stress. And because it's a really soft bamboo/cotton mix, my skin is finally not feeling tortured under there! To the makers of this ingenious life-changing product: thank you thank you thank you! Sincerely, all the grateful ta-tas you've helped to care for." —Niko

Get a three-pack from Amazon for $14.99 (available in women's sizes M–XXL and in several color combos). 

20. And! A pack of disposable underarm shields so you'll be extra protected when you attend a baseball game and a round of ~the wave~ threatens to broadcast your sweat stains up on the jumbotron. These adhere to the inside of your clothing and absorb wetness to keep those pesky sweat stains at bay.

Amazon

Promising review: "I love these. I have a few cute summer dresses with sleeves — eeek! The first time I tried the shields, it was 104 degrees at an outdoor event, and I was sweating bullets! The shields worked BEAUTIFULLY. Not a sweat stain in sight." —Cosmic Girl

Get a pack of 24 from Amazon for $14.99.

21. And!!! A pack of highly absorbent sweat liners — now your fave hat won't be drenched at the end of your afternoon walk. Just peel off the adhesive backing, place it inside your hat above the rim, then rest assured that your eyes are protected from sweat and your hat is protected from nasty odors.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I show horses in Texas, and it’s hot! I started using these in my riding hats a few years ago and they’re a game changer. They capture all the sweat and keep it from running in my eyes. I can usually use one for a few different competitions. They don’t change how the hats fit either, because they’re very thin." —ponygirlatcua

NoSweat is a small business!

Get a pack of three from Amazon for $25 (also available in larger multipacks).

22. A pack of shoe deodorizers that are a must-have for anyone who apologizes profusely any time they take their shoes off around other people. They're designed to absorb and neutralize odors overnight, and you can even use them in gym bags, pet beds, lockers, or anywhere else that's in need of a refresh.

www.amazon.com

Each bag lasts for up to six months.

Promising review: "I bought two sets of these, one for my gym shoes and one for my favorite everyday shoes I wear to the office. I've been pleasantly surprised by how well they work. I'm no longer embarrassed to take off my shoes in the presence of someone else. I've read I'll need to replace these over time, which makes perfect sense. I'll happily buy these again." —ATxQT

Get an two-pack from Amazon for $13.97 (also available in packs of four or eight).

23. And a deodorizer shoe spray made with peppermint and eucalyptus oils that's safe enough to spray directly on your feet so you can tackle those odors from the source. It's designed to dry super quickly, so you can spray it and put your shoes on right away.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Been using this for about a month. I run and go to the gym so there is lots of use of my sneakers five to six times a week. I remove the insoles and spray those, then spray inside the sneakers. I like the scent, kind of minty, and it kills any odors immediately." —Lisa S

Get it from Amazon for $13.46+ (available in two sizes and a two-pack option).

24. A pack of cooling towels to help keep you a bit more comfy on those unbearable hot days. All you have to do is soak them in water and wring them out — they'll stay cool to the touch for up to three hours. It also works to wick away sweat and provide UV protection. You can wear it around your neck, tie it around your wrist, wear it as a headband, or place anywhere else you need some sweet cooling relief.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "As weird as it sounds, I like to take these towels and tie them around my neck or around my head while working out. I sweat profusely and these towels prevented my head sweat from dripping all over the place!" —JetBlast

Get a pack of four from Amazon for $16.99 (available in 13 color combinations).

25. And a pack of genius handkerchiefs that are specifically designed to mop up sweat. They can absorb seven times their weight in moisture and dry faster than traditional towels. Honestly, where have these been all our lives?!

Amazon

Promising review: "When you live someplace that is hot and humid all summer and you don't have a car, just walking around the corner to the supermarket can be a very uncomfortable experience. This is the second summer that I have had one of these in my purse. Even if I feel OK outside, I can walk into a store and suddenly have a drop of moisture dripping down my face or worse, sweat in my eyes. Traditional handkerchiefs aren't easy to find anymore and tissues can leave bits of paper on your skin so these microfiber cloths are a great solution. They are soft, absorbent, thicker than ordinary handkerchiefs and they launder nicely. They feel nice and look nice." —sarany

Get a pack of five from Amazon for $14.99 (available in 11 colors, two sizes, and packs of three and 20).

26. A Revlon volcanic stone face roller to mop up excess oil before it has time to break down the makeup you spent SO much time applying that morning. This was one of the first beauty products to go viral on TikTok — and for good reason! It mattifies with just a few swipes and is designed not to disturb your makeup.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

It's way less wasteful and easier to carry around than a pack of oil blotting sheets — just pop out the stone roller to give a quick wash before reusing!

Promising review: "First off, if you have extremely oily skin, this. is. it. I was so tired of getting blotting powder/wipes. It felt wasteful and always left residue on my face. I saw this on TikTok and NEEDED it. It was backordered but then I got an email saying it was in stock and I was SO excited. Not only is it affordable, but it's washable, which helps you save money and be less wasteful." —Kelsey B.

Get it from Amazon for $7.75

27. Or a pack of oil-absorbing sheets that will tackle the shiniest of foreheads and have you looking instantly matte without ruining your makeup. These are a must on the days when you want to touch up in a hurry and forgot to bring your setting powder with you.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I LOVE these oil-absorbing sheets! I tried them out a few years ago but haven't gotten around to writing a review until now. I've tried other blotting sheets, and they've either broken me out or just did not absorb all the oil. Every time I come back to these, I realize they are truly the best. I have SUPER-oily skin (and cystic acne, which I have the scars to show for) and this makes me feel sooo fresh and even calms down active pimples/acne." —Noopur D.

Get a pack of 100 from Amazon for $6.95 (available in three formulas and various pack sizes).

28. A pomade hair wax stick — it'll be a major timesaver on those humid days when you want to smooth down frizzy flyaways, cowlicks, or set baby hairs into place. Just swipe it over any targeted areas you want to smooth, and it'll provide some seriously strong hold without any sticky residue.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Oh, and laying your edges is not a necessity and isn't everyone's cup of tea! For more on this, check out "Just A Friendly PSA That You Don't HAVE To Lay Your Edges Down If You Don't Wanna."

Promising reviews: "I saw this on YouTube and immediately wanted to try it. I have curly hair, which I love, but sometimes I just want to put it in a ponytail and go on with my day. This is a time saver for all those little hairs that tend to stick up or don't want to stay in place. I’m not a fan of hairspray, and this even smells nice. I believe it’s a light coconut smell. Overall satisfied, and you don’t need to use much. I took it with me on vacation, and it saved me time in the evening from having to deal with bad hair days." —Blanca Perez

"I have 4A-4B curls. When my hair is straight, there are a few spots that are a little frizzier than others, which, to me, isn't a big deal. Some flyaways, however, were the biggest reason why I got this. It lays the baby hairs and is a little bit of a heavier product. I will say you just have to be careful if you're not used to using heavy products. The first time I used it, I just put a little in my hands and then put it where it was needed." —Jay

Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (also available in multipacks).

29. CeraVe's Renewing Salicylic Acid Cleanser so you can banish the acne that's popping up like sunflowers all over your body now that warmer weather is finally here. Reviewers have had luck using it on face and body acne, with many saying it reduces rough skin, bumps, and pimples with consistent use. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "This is my holy grail cleanser. It’s gentle on dry skin and made a huge improvement when struggling with acne. Rub it in your hands with a splash of water and it foams up really good. Love the feel, the lack of fragrance, but mostly the end result." —Jean

Get it from Amazon for $12.37+ (available in two sizes).

30. The super popular Bug Bite Thing, which uses the simple power of suction to alleviate the post-bite itching and swelling from the adorable but vicious bumblebee that attacked you while you were distracted by an equally cute butterfly that landed on a sunflower (I think they may have been working together). It works on everything from mosquito bites to wasp stings, so you'll probably want this in your pocket any time you leave the house this summer.

www.amazon.com

This works by suctioning up insect venom, saliva, and other irritants under the skin, which in turn prevents your body from producing a reaction to said irritant. You can also use it to treat bites from bees, wasps, biting flies, no-see-ums, chiggers, and sea lice.

Promising review: “You need this! 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 used this little tool (3x per the instructions) and documented it with photos. Immediately after using it, [my bite] 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 it is a small price to pay, IMO. Bottom line: it’s awesome. I’m carrying it with me everywhere!” —Rebecca 

Bug Bite Thing is a small business specializing in bug bite relief and tick removal products.

Get it from Amazon for $9.95+ (available in one-, two-, or three-packs and in five colors).

31. I Dew Care's dry shampoo powder to quickly mop up the excess oils that are absolutely ruining your Sunday brunch 'do. This one has a powder-puff applicator so you can apply it directly to your roots (you know, the source of all your oily troubles), and it also adds some extra volume as you brush it through. Reviewers say it instantly absorbs oil and doesn't leave a white residue behind. It's so easy to use that you'll wonder how you ever dealt with those messy spray cans. 

www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "I’m a big fan of dry shampoo and have been through my fair share of product testing and let me tell y’all, this is the holy grail... Since it’s just the powder itself rather than the can of spray filled with all that junk, you get so much more out of it, I haven’t even finished my first container and it’s been months. To add on to the lasting ability, it works so well I don’t have to use as much or often. It takes me from messy, old, greasy hair to looking like it’s freshly washed in seconds. I suggest putting it on before bed to let it settle in your sleep, but you can also do it right before walking out the door and get amazing results." —Caroline W.

"This stuff is my new holy grail. I have very fine and very oily hair. I used to wash it daily but after getting a shag haircut I moved to every other day with lots of dry shampoo in between. I will never go back to aerosol dry shampoo again. I have used Batiste for many years but the smell and residue is too much... Application is super easy (it doesn’t get EVERYWHERE!) you only need a small amount, and there is no smell." —Jessica

Get it from Amazon for $18+ (available in six shades and refills and various pack sizes). 

32. A set of no-show socks with grippy silicone backing strips on the inside to stop them from rolling down under your heel, which is enough to make you want to kick your shoes off and just go home. They're still low-cut enough to wear with flats and slip-on sneakers, but they'll never betray you in the middle of your afternoon walk.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I really like the no-show socks for summer. These have the rubber bit on the heel that helps them to stay on, which is something that I look for in these kinds of socks. I really, really, like really like them. They are low enough that they are no-show when worn, unlike some other types that say they are but definitely aren't. They are also nice and snug and sooo comfortable. They are my new go-to no-show sock, so much so that I don't even wear my old pairs anymore. I will most definitely buy more." —Alicia

33. A fast-acting plug-in fly trap that looks like a simple night-light to the unsuspecting eye but actually uses UV LED light to attract the flies, fruit flies, moths, and gnats that are using your home as their Airbnb for summer vacay. The refillable glue trap is placed on the back, so you won't even have to see the flies until it's time to replace it.

Promising review: "I can’t say enough wonderful things about these handy little bug catchers! They are simple to use, cheap to refill, and catch a ton of small bugs and flies. I have eight of them now, all around my house! It’s a little gross how many tiny flying insects are around…but it makes me feel a lot better now that I have these!" —Chris H. 

Get the device and two refill cards from Amazon for $12.97+ (Also available in a two-pack. You can also pick up a refill packs separately for $5.57+).

34. And an adorableinsect catcher to help trap any annoying bugs that are as obsessed with your plants as you are. They're waterproof and UV-resistant, so no need to worry about hot, rainy weather ruining their bug-catching ability. The gnats that have turned your monstera into their favorite hangout spot have no idea what's coming. 🦟

Reviewers note that these work best if you put them somewhere the flies are already attracted to — these will definitely trap them, but they won't attract them on their own. 

Promising review: "I have a lot of plants and, unfortunately, gnats are a byproduct of them. These sticky traps are the solution I’ve been looking for! They’re incredible, work like a dream, and I’ll definitely be ordering again." —daltjams

35. A pair of Nippies, adhesive pasties reviewers swear by for feeling comfortable, secure, and supported — especially when their summer 'fits just don't work with a regular bra. The medical-grade adhesive provides a strong, waterproof hold, and they're entirely washable and reusable. Plus, they come in several colors to match various skin tones.

Promising review: "So I decided to put these to the ultimate test for 4th of July underneath my white, semi-sheer swimsuit. I wore them out in the Florida heat in the ocean all day, and they did not budge or peel off. I thought for sure these would take skin off by the time I got home because I just couldn't believe they stayed on the entire day (humidity is real). I was able to remove them with ease. I washed them with warm water and soap and let them dry, and the next day, they were super sticky, like they were brand new out of the package again. Buying these forever." —Marisa

36. A lightly tinted 30 SPF sunscreen from dermatologist-fave brand Cerave with a light tint that helps keep that dreaded white cast at bay. There are only three shades to choose from, but each is designed to seamlessly blend into a variety of skin tones, so don't worry if it looks a little too light or dark out of the bottle. And like most CeraVe products, you'll get some ceramides and niacinamide to soothe and restore your skin's natural barrier.

Promising reviews: "This is a holy grail item for me. I have dry, sensitive skin, that's very fair, redness and burn prone. I find CeraVe tinted sunscreen creamy and soothing, non-irritating, and actually effective as a sunscreen (even when I don't reapply, which is honestly most of the time). Product initially goes on heavy and greasy; I rub gently and let it sit for like 5–10 minutes while I do other morning prep. Magically, after this time, the lotion absorbs and makes my skin look great. I get so many compliments on my skin when I use this. I don't use any other makeup. I've been using this for several years now. I've tried others occasionally, but they just don't compare when it comes to quality, price, and feel." —Malecka03

"I am a daily sunscreen wearing girl, and I reapply in summer. This is my holy grail. Sis has dry skin and I live in a desert, lord help me, but the consistency of this has been amazing for my skin. It spreads and blends beautifully. I use my fingers and just dab it in and i am able to layer makeup over it nicely as well." —Maricela

Get it from Amazon for $13.97+ (available in three shades).

37. And! An SPF 30 scalp sunscreen mist because scalp is skin, and we all know by now that skin absolutely needs protection from the sun (and no, your hair isn't enough protection!). This will come in handy now that the sun has come out of hiding, especially on any hair parts, bald spots, or thinning areas. The panthenol and cica oil-infused formula can even help prevent color fading and damage caused by UV rays.

Promising review: "I have two girls, and we spend a lot of time outside in the summers. I work as a nurse and have seen scalp skin cancer, and I definitely wanted to protect myself and my girls. We usually use the regular spray, but it leaves the hair greasy or stiff. This has a great scent, and a little goes a long way! I was worried about the small size, but it lasted us all summer. Also leaves no residue." —Liz Young

Get it from Amazon for $28.

38. A pack of body and fabric tape that proves strapless dress season doesn't have to equal constantly-pulling-up-your-dress season. This will keep your dress securely in place and is specially designed to be safe for your skin. You can also use it to stick your tank top strap and bra strap together, because if it slips one more time  ..., 😤
