18% off Hatch Restore 3 Sunrise Alarm Clock\u00a0<\/h2>\n

\u201cLast winter, I really felt the effects of SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder). Planning ahead for the colder months, this sound machine\u2013sunrise alarm hybrid will not only help treat those winter blues but also hopefully help me fall asleep easier and wake up more refreshed.\u201d \u2014 Esther Newman, Affiliate Writer<\/em><\/p>\n

21% off Hero Cosmetics Mighty Patch Invisible<\/h2>\n

\u201cI\u2019m going on the record that these are my absolute favorite, holy grail pimple patches<\/a>. If I had to only use these for the rest of my acne-having days, I\u2019d be more than happy \u2014 that\u2019s how good they are. There are many similar, beveled designs from other brands, but none do it better than Hero Cosmetics. (My husband routinely will not even notice I have them on!) They\u2019re already relatively affordable at under $20 for a box of 39 patches, but at their 21% discount, they\u2019re an absolute steal \u2014 and worth every penny.\u201d \u2014 Karina Hoshikawa, Senior Writer<\/em><\/p>\n

15% off Heraclea Aegean Infused Olive Oils Gift Set<\/h2>\n

\u201cThis Turkish olive oil, and especially the infused flavor options, is one of my favorites. The set comes with four different varieties\u00a0\u2014 lemon, garlic, chili, and rosemary \u2014 and each is a wonderful complement to summer salads, pastas, and even with bread and charcuterie boards. It also makes a beautiful and unique host present come gifting season.\u201d \u2014 Lisa Dionisio, Newsletter Director<\/em><\/p>\n

29% off Shark FlexStyle HD430 Air Styling & Drying System<\/h2>\n

\u201cI have long, thick hair, so you can imagine at-home blowouts are a serious chore. And yet, my natural wavy hair is not the vibe when I want to feel put-together and polished, so styling brushes<\/a> have become an absolute staple. I\u2019ve tried and enjoyed a few from other brands, but Shark has been next on my list. (The power seems next-level and the aesthetic sleekness? Right up my alley).\u201d \u2014 Laura Lajiness Kaupke, Contributing Editor<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cAfter seeing the limited-release Havaianas x Gimagaus studded flip flops<\/a> famously worn by Kylie Jenner, plus all the DIY iterations across TikTok that have popped up since, I think it\u2019s time I hop on the trend.

20% off Bounce Curl Define EdgeLift Brush<\/h2>\n

“My sister turned me onto this BounceCurl brush after she\u2019d been using it for a couple of months. I\u2019m still testing it for myself and so far it\u2019s been great for giving my wavy hair a little more shape. She has much curlier hair than me and swears the ridged edge\u00a0 of this hairbrush gives her bouncier, more defined curls. There are different versions that help with definition or volume<\/a>, but they\u2019re both on sale right now for Prime Day.” \u2014 Lisa Dionisio, Newsletter Director<\/em><\/p>\n

15% off Oura Ring 4<\/h2>\n

\u201cWhen I first reviewed<\/a> the Oura ring two years ago, I would\u2019ve never guessed how often people (aka my fellow yoga girlies) would come up to ask me if I liked it and thought it was worth the money. My answer is always the same: I absolutely love<\/em> it. No wellness tracker \u2014 not even my Apple Watch, which I also, for the record, really love \u2014 has actually helped me achieve sounder sleep, more movement, and, perhaps most importantly, rest when my body is telling me. It\u2019s lightweight enough that even people like me, who hate working out and sleeping in jewelry, forget that it\u2019s on, and it holds a decent charge (years later, I still only plug in my second-edition ring three times a week at most). Oura rarely does sales, but is offering 15% off the latest model for Prime Day. So PSA: If you\u2019ve been thinking about getting one, this is your sign to do so!\u201d \u2014 Karina Hoshikawa, Senior Writer<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI hate traveling with a steamer, but what I hate even more are wrinkled clothes \u2014 especially when I\u2019m trying to look cute on vacation. The Nori Press is the most compact (and stylish) travel iron I\u2019ve seen yet, and works like a charm on a variety of fabrics, including cotton, linen, and silk (just proceed with caution, etc., etc.). I used to use a hair straightener to McGuyver my way to smoother, crease-free clothes, but Nori works so much better. Most recently, it made my Alice + Olivia wedding rehearsal dinner dress appear professionally pressed, even though it had traveled over a thousand miles in my suitcase. At 25% off during Prime Day?

\u201cKorean beauty brand<\/a> Aestura \u2014 and specifically this product \u2014 has come highly recommended to me. It\u2019s a potent moisturizing cream packed with a triple threat of ceramides, fatty acids, and cholesterol, which together bolster our skin\u2019s natural barrier and boost its ability to retain moisture. After a summer of fun (festivals, vacations, parties, late nights neglecting skincare\u2026), my dehydrated and dry skin<\/a> is definitely in need of a wonder product \u2014 and all the five-star reviews suggest this is it!\u201d \u2014 Esther Newman, Affiliate Writer<\/em><\/p>\n
