Burt's Bees After Sun Soother lotion (38% off list price)

The sun and I are not good friends, and even when I am the most diligent about my sunscreen application, I still manage to get burned every once and while. I've been eyeing this post-sun soothing lotion that's moisturizing, nourishing, and packed with calming ingredients like aloe. Plus, it's by a trusted brand that's known for making hit natural formulations time and time again.

Amazon

Medicube PDRN Pink collagen capsule cream (30% off list price)

This unique and lightweight moisturizer by Medicube features capsules of salmon DNA-derived PDRN suspended in a rich jelly that promises to be residue-free. PDRN, the latest ingredient for targeting volume loss and reduced elasticity, is accompanied by collagen to plump the skin and hyaluronic acid to boost moisture, and is designed to ensure a complexion that's bright, glowing and "glass-like." I've already tried a few products by Medicube (the Triple Collagen cream and the PDRN peptide toner) and I'm absolutely obsessed with both, so I'm eager to add this to my pink-hued Medicube lineup.

Touchland hydrating hand sanitizer mist 3-pack (30% off list price)

Touchland's Power Mist hand sanitizer first made an impact with its incredibly sleek packaging that feels satisfying in the palm and its gentle, ultra-fine mist. It stayed an icon because the formulation is a far cry from the drying and sticky-feeling gel-based sanitizers that you're probably used to. It also doesn't have that strong alcohol smell. I swear by these hand mists because they feel refreshing on the skin, don't irritate my chronic eczema, and I love all the fun scents to choose from. They are on the expensive side for a hand sanitizer, which makes a deal like this something worth taking advantage of.

Amazon

Wrangler men's relaxed fit stretch cargo pants (30% off list price)

My partner is an outdoor muralist, and he has several pairs of these Wrangler cargo pants, which have a slight stretch and durable feel. He swears by them for work and just for everyday wear because they're comfortable, good quality and he appreciates the cargo pocket functionality. You can shop them in nine colors and several sizes, though not all options are on full sale for Prime Day.

Amazon

Active seal and grout mold stain remover (31% off list price)

A couple of months ago, I was influenced to buy this Active mold stain remover after reporting about its many claims and even more convincing customer reviews. This highly concentrated formula has a gel-like consistency, so it adheres to vertical surfaces like shower walls and stays there. I applied it to my old tile and grout in my shower, around my kitchen sink and around my tub's faucet, where stubborn has refused to leave and like magic, it disappeared and transformed my surfaces like new. It's even great to apply areas like gasket seals in their washing machines to eliminate that moldy odor. I'm a huge fan of this and will be stocking up for Prime Day.

The Iope PDRN Caffeine Shot serum on RARE sale (30% off)

HuffPost readers love a high-quality skin care product that can replace pricey facial treatments, like this K-beauty serum that one beauty TikToker calls “filler in a bottle.” Its prowess is attributed to an ingredient called PDRN, which is widely used in injectables overseas. It has anti-inflammatory and tissue-repairing capabilities that can improve skin firmness and leave recipients with a telltale glow. It's usually extracted from salmon sperm cells, but Iope's serum has a completely vegan, plant-based formula that is as unique as it is effective.

Additional ingredients like niacinamide, probiotics and caffeine round out this repairing formulation — all ingredients that are beloved by HuffPost editors and readers alike. It's such a great product that it was awarded a HuffPicks seal of approval.

"I have covered countless serums in my many years of beauty reporting, but this one covers all my must-have bases. I've been using it for about 10 weeks and have noticed that my skin is significantly more hydrated, glowy and bouncy. I make an effort to put it on my neck lines and it definitely helps to blur them as well. I'm a convert for life!" — Uribe

Dr. Martens unisex's Carlson mules (46% off list price)

While I try to thrift 90% of my clothes and accessories, I've been off used shoes since interviewing Michael Fishkin, a certified pedorthist at Northern Illinois Foot & Ankle Specialists. Per Fishkin, walking around in someone else's foot imprint can make foot pain worse, disrupt your balance and cause problems for your ankles and knees. No, thank you.

Fishkin made my little punk rock heart flutter, though, when he said Dr. Martens shoes get his seal of approval for their ample support and durable sole. A long-time Doc's wearer, I think they're worth the money — especially when you can find them on sale. I've been eyeing these low-profile mules for a while, and frankly, was surprised to see them on Amazon. It's a unisex shoe that comes in women's 5/men's 4 to women's 15/men's 14. They come in a few neutral hues, but you'll get the best deal on the pictured light tan." — Griffin Wynne, shopping writer

Amazon

Away Bigger carry-on luggage (20% off list price)

The Bigger carry-on is what put Away on the map. It fits an astonishing amount of clothing while still complying with carry-on regulations for most major airlines. It's a game-changer for people who never want to check a bag. Like all of Away's suitcases, it's made with durable, water-repellent and lightweight materials and 360-degree wheels that glide with ease. The adjustable trolley handle has two height settings, while the interior compression pad system and organizer makes it easy to load up on clothing. It also comes with a water-repellent laundry bag. It's available in seven colors.

"I've been eyeing my wife's Away carry-on bag for months now, but been hesitant to make a splurge. I still can't believe we can shop these cult-fave bags at Amazon, and the fact that it's 20% off has pushed me over the edge. I'll be picking up my own matching bag with gusto. It's as chic as it is reliable and the perfect addition to my travel bag repertoire." — Uribe

Amazon

Dove Shea Butter Beauty Bar (30% off list price)

Both Flores and I are devoted to the Dove Beauty Bar — it is a superior soap and it has permanent residence in our showers. Flores' particular favorite is this shea butter formula, which is intensely hydrating and deceptively luxurious. The warm and slightly vanilla-ed scent doesn't irritate her sensitive and eczema-prone skin, and, like all Beauty Bar formulas, it's formulated with one-fourth moisturizing cream for a rich and nourishing feel.

Amazon

Intex 22-inch queen air mattress (24% off list price)

You truly never know when you're going to need an air mattress, and I'm pleased to see that my own favorite air mattress is on sale for Prime Day. My Intex Dura-Beam Comfort Plus has provided me with a cushy place to rest on camping trips, and any house guest of mine who has slept on it is impressed with how it manages to stay inflated the whole night. Available in three heights and three sizes (not all sizes may be on sale), the Intex has rows of reinforced beams in the mattresses' interior, which provide adequate support and a pillowtop design featuring air pockets for an added cushioned feel. It has a 600-pound weight capacity, and the built-in, self-inflating air pump makes this extra convenient to travel with.

Amazon

Some hydrating eye patches from Mario Badescu (30% off list price)

These silicone undereye patches are infused with hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, caffeine, and tiger grass. The 30-pack comes with a spatula for hygienically removing each teardrop-shaped , and the brand advises leaving each one on for 15-20 minutes.

“I thought for the longest time that eye patches were snake oil, and maybe they still are – but I cannot deny their effectiveness after a night of minimal sleep. There’s something about putting them on after I wake up that makes me look and feel more sprightly. There are a bunch of options on sale for Prime Day, but I’m eyeing this 30-pack from Mario Badescu. I like the sound of the ingredients.” — Emily Ruane, shopping managing editor

Amazon

A universal international power adapter (26% off list price)

If you've had the little baggy of different mini adapters, you know how easy it is to misplace the one you need the day before your trip. Goodbye to ALL of that. Hello to a one-and-done universal travel adaptor that has every port and import you could dream of. It's the perfect travel companion for international trips, but also gives you extra charging ports if you're using it state-side.

Heads up: Amazon says you're getting 41% off but per our trackers, it's more like 26% off — a discount that still drops this powerful adapter to to under $20. That's the lowest price since May. Make your move!

Sony WH-1000XM5 premium noise-cancelling headphones (38% off list price)

Here's what HuffPost deals writer and tech-obsessive Kevin Cortez previously had to say about the Sony WH-1000XM5 premium noise-cancelling headphones that happen to be on sale for Prime Day this year:

"After months of saving, I finally pulled the trigger back in October, and after spending virtually my whole life believing that headphones that cost over $200 won’t make a difference, I’m happy to report that I’m dead wrong. A good pair of Bluetooth wireless headphones — one that can handle crisp highs and deep bass without static — genuinely makes a difference when listening to music. And when it comes to lifestyle assistance, like clear microphones, noise-cancelation and all-day comfort for a glasses-wearer like me, I can truly say that, without a doubt, WH-1000XM5 is the best pair of headphones I’ll ever own.

Sony’s WH-1000XM5 headphones are comfortable, well-padded and feel pretty dang good over your head — I’m talking pillowy soft. They’re USB-C rechargeable, have a battery life of up to 30 hours (I barely charge mine!), feature eight microphones for crisp audio for phone calls and Facetime and have a superb active noise-cancelation that blocks out distractions as needed. I find that ANC is pretty great for deep work and virtual therapy, helping me block out any ambient room noise and the outside traffic that usually disrupts my thinking."

Amazon

Brita Plus water filters (36% off list price)

Designed to work with Brita water pitchers (some of which are also on sale for Prime Day), these incredibly popular filters can reduce twice the contaminants in your drinking water compared to a Brita original filter. Each filter lasts for two months and can get rid of 10 contaminants, including copper, chlorine, benzene and more — not to mention make your water taste better.

"My Brita pitcher is one of those possessions I can't live without, as someone who's always drinking water. I usually focus on practical purchases for Prime Day, so I'm excited to grab these at a discount and enjoy clean, great-tasting water for another year without having to think about it." — Erica Kam, shopping writer

15.
Amazon

Some generously-tailored denim shorts (up to 60% off list price)

The “baggy” 94 silhouette is a newer one from Levi’s and incorporates a medium rise with a roomy leg. You can get the 100% cotton style in sizes 24-34 and five washes, with the best deal being on the Cookie Crunch wash.

“These jean shorts from Levi’s are also exactly what I need on the aforementioned outings. The wider leg opening is going to be a lot more comfortable than a fitted one when the temperature outside is pushing 90 degrees.” – Ruane

16.

Dawn Platinum Plus Powerwash dish spray (34% off list price)

This foaming dish spray works superbly and most professional cleaners will tell you that you can use it to clean more than dishes. We love it so much here at HuffPost that we even gave it a HuffPicks award. Grab this household staple plus refills in this sale and you probably won't need to buy dish soap again for the rest of 2025.

"I am Dawn Powerwash's biggest fan — I use it to wash my dishes, clean my makeup brushes and countertops and even occasionally kill bugs, because yes, this is so much more than your average dish soap. A sale this good is pretty rare, so definitely stock up while you can." — Kam

17.

Brooklinen luxury sateen sheet set (20% off list price)

Unless you've steered clear of the internet for the past few years, you've been more than likely acquainted with the trendy bedding offerings from Brooklinen — and there's absolutely no way that I'm passing up a discounted set of the brand's most coveted set of sheets. The Luxe Sateen sheets are a luxurious 480-thread-count set made of buttery smooth sateen woven from long-staple cotton. Score this organic cotton three-piece set — which one Brooklinen reviewer likened to sleeping on a cloud — in several colors and patterns, and sizes, twin-California king.

FYI, Brooklinen's entire Amazon storefront is 20% off for Prime Day.

Amazon

A really delicious all-purpose cleanser (25% off list price)

Youth to the People’s Superfood Cleanser is a major favorite among shopping experts (our editors included) – its received accolades from publications like Allure and Wirecutter for its delightful scent and gentle cleaning power. It’s designed to “respect” the skin barrier, in the words of the brand, thanks to ingredients like glycerin and green tea extract.

“I actually tried this cleanser after receiving in a freebie PR box that got sent to our office unsolicited, but I liked it so much that I plan to use Prime Day to stock up. And while I recommend that you purchase this 6-ounce size if you don't already have the product, know there's also a 16.9-ounce refill size for the reusable glass bottle this comes in, which is what I am hoping to snag.” – Ruane

Bottom Line: The price for this master facial cleanser hasn't been this low ALL 2025. Spring for it now while you can.

19.
Amazon

Biolage Color Last shampoo (30% off list price)

As someone with very dry, heat-damaged, and color-treated hair, Flores has cycled through tons of shampoos but finds herself always coming back to this perfect Biolage formula. Its only downside is really the price, but for Prime Day, you can score a bottle for 30% off, which she will definitely be doing. Fortified with soybean oil and cleansing stearic acid, this richly lathering wash leaves her hair looking exceptionally voluminous and fuller, feeling soft, and most importantly, prevents her jet black hair from fading.

20.
Amazon

It Cosmetics CC+ Cream and foundation (40% off list price)

The It Cosmetics CC+ cream has been my exclusive foundation of choice for a number of reasons, namely that it makes my skin look absolutely flawless and virtually imperceptible. I also have keratosis pilaris on my face and this is the one perfectly finished foundation that hides all imperfections without looking cake-y or unnatural in the slightest. Plus, the color-correcting formula is also infused with broad spectrum SPF 50 and a whole slew of skin-loving ingredients like hyaluronic acid, peptides and niacinamide so it never feels overly drying on the face. It comes in 22 shades.

21.
Amazon

La Roche-Posay Toleriane double repair face moisturizer (25% off list price)

Multiple HuffPosters have sung the praises of this affordable French moisturizer for its non-greasy, lightweight feel and suitability for sensitive skin. It has a creamy texture, is fast-absorbing and can provide up to 48 hours of hydration.

"I previously bought this on sale at Amazon and my skin — sensitive, acne-prone, combination — has really liked it! It's very no-frills, doesn't have a scent and doesn't feel too heavy on my face, especially in hot weather, which is a plus." — Kam

22.
Amazon

Coleman camp lantern (25% off list price)

"While I got this, frankly adorable, Coleman camp lantern for camping, I've found it's great for power outages, backyard parties and really any time you're in the dark. Because it gives you 360 degrees of light, I like it better than a flashlight, and I truly think it's a good-looking piece that I'm happy to have out on a table if I'm eating outside. Note: You'll want to grab a set of four D batteries, helping you gain up to 175 hours of light." — Wynne

23.
Amazon

Neutrogena light sesame body oil (12% off list price)

Incorporating a body oil into my body care routine post-shower has truly saved my chronically dry and sensitive skin, so I will definitely be adding a bottle of this to my cart. This classic and lightweight oil by Neutrogena is a persistent drugstore favorite for many and has 4.7 out of 5 stars on Amazon from 30,277 reviewers. Enriched with sesame oil, this sheer and fast-absorbing formula promises to provide instant nourishment, lock in moisture and improve the skin's barrier.

24.
Amazon

Olaplex No. 7 bonding hair oil (30% off list price)

Olaplex's hair-repairing formulas are known to address cuticle damage, unruliness and frizz by re-linking broken bonds within the strand. Every chance I get, I restock this styling oil, which I use before applying any heat to my hair using styling tools to add a layer of protection, add a healthy shine and tame flyaways. Plus, it smells incredible.

25.
Amazon

A powerful lil' speaker that's really fun (30% off list price)

With an IP67 waterproof rating and an up-to-5-hour battery life, this palm-sized Bluetooth speaker is a outdoor must-have – and at only $30 right now, it's a complete steal. Reviews on the sound quality are overwhelmingly positive, too.

“After months of hemming and hawing about this purchase, I impulse-bought this speaker from my neighborhood electronics store and I do not regret it one bit! My kids love listening to music while we walk to school (or now, camp) and my husband or I will often play it directly on our phones, but the sound quality and logistics there are not ideal because the kids always want to hold the phone. Now, they love holding the speaker – and fighting over who gets to hold it, of course – and blasting Black Sabbath or the ‘Frozen’ soundtrack while we stroll along. I love that its waterproof, too – this means we will be able to listen to podcasts during bathtime, which is one of our favorite evening activities.” – Ruane

26.
Amazon

Palmer's Cocoa Butter formula lotion (44% off list price)

I keep a giant tub of this moisturizer in my shower, so I can slather it on as soon as I pat my skin dry. Palmer's debuted its beloved cocoa butter formulas 175 years ago, making it one of the oldest skincare companies around. Today, customers still adore the brand's aromatic and hydrating moisturizers like this deliciously hydrating lotion. It's packed with vitamin E that soothes and softens rough skin. It rarely goes on sale, making this the perfect time to snag this skin care essential.

27.
Amazon

A 6-pack of True Classic T-shirts (22% off list price)

These ringspun cotton-and-polyester blend T-shirts come in multiple size packs and assorted colors, and are designed to have a slimmer silhouette without being constricting, according to the brand. Get them in a range of sizes, from S-3XLT.

“I'll be buying these tees in bulk for my husband, who loves them and wears his T-shirts very hard. As the one who’s often folding them, I can vouch for their softness and durability.” — Emily Ruane, shopping managing editor

28.
Amazon

Shark Flexstyle hair styler (29% off list price)

For the longest time, I refused to jump on the hair styler train because I felt I could achieve the same results with my old-school hair dryer and curling iron however, I recently gave in, and I regret not relinquishing my stubbornness sooner. I opted for the Shark Flexstyle because it was more affordable than the famous Dyson Airwrap, and I really liked the adjustable arm that transformed the styler into a more traditional hair dryer shape — a feature that the former doesn’t have. With this all-in-one tool, I can blow out my hair to volumized greatness in literally a fraction of the time using the round brush attachment, which really smooths out frizz, adds that perfect 'swoop' to the ends of my hair, and defines my layers. Like the Dyson, this also uses reverse airflow technology, so it's incredibly easy to curl hair using the rod attachments that pull the hair around the heated barrel while you just hold it there and let it do its thing. Consider trying a discounted Shark Flexstyle for Prime if you, too, have been debating on which hair styler is best for you.

Amazon

Ninja Luxe Café Premier 3 in 1 coffee maker (17% off list price)

I currently have 3 separate coffee machines taking up precious counter space in my tiny NYC kitchen and think it might be time to consolidate. I've had my eyes on Ninja's 3-in-1 coffee machine for months now, just waiting for the right time to pounce. I drink cold brew year-round and my husband loves his drip coffee while treating himself to an espresso on Friday afternoons. I'm done trying to justify splurging on this, especially now that it's $90 off for Prime Day. Now I just need to figure out what to do with all of that extra counter space I'll have. — Adam Schubak, shopping growth strategist

Amazon

Sun Bum SPF 50 roll-on sunscreen (43% off list price)

This broad-spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen is infused with vitamin E and is compliant with Hawaii Act 104, meaning it doesn’t contain any oxybenzone or octinoxate. Sun Bum is a reader-favorite brand with a number of offerings on sale for Prime Day.

“I borrowed this from a friend on a scorching park day and marveled at the smooth and thorough application as I used the rolling tip to rub sunscreen all over my daughters' faces and arms. It's not easy to put SPF on wiggly preschoolers and this make it a little more seamless. I actually bought a similar roll-on product from another drugstore sun care brand a few weeks back when my local Walgreens was sold out of the Sun Bum, and it was definitely nowhere near as functional as this stuff. Stock up!” – Ruane
