These Amazon Prime Day Deals Will Make This Summer Your Best One Yet

When HuffPost editorial director Kristen Aiken saw her elegant, older neighbor strolling “cool as a cucumber” in the blazing midsummer sun under an umbrella, she had questions. Luckily for us, her neighbor had answers – she was using a cooling UV umbrella, which boasts a specially designed cover that protects against UV rays (though it can be used in the rain too) and promises to keep you noticeably cooler under its shade.

When we wrote about this inventive sun protection device, it became a clear reader favorite, thanks to its easy one-button open feature, an anti-glare underside and double-canopy design with a mesh insert for extra ventilation. Weighing just under a pound and collapsing to 11 inches, it’s easy to take on the go as added sun protection.

Reviewers love it for travel: “Took it on a trip to a very hot, humid country,” wrote Msparks on Amazon. “Was the envy of others in the group who hadn't thought of it.” Reviewer Travel Junkie, who brought the umbrella to India for a monthlong voyage, “used it daily” and found it “[seemed] to lower the outside temp by 10-15 degrees, so not only protected but also lot cooler."

The best-selling OG LifeStraw is a must for anyone who loves adventures, camping or likes to be prepared for all kinds of situations. While it may seem like a niche product, a personal water filter is something just about everyone could use.

They make for thoughtful gifts. “I snagged a huge deal on the Lifestraw last Prime Day and bought 10 of them — I pretty much handed them out like candy to my family at Christmas, half-assuming they’d look down at it and say, ‘What is THIS?’” said HuffPost editorial director Kristen Aiken. “But to my surprise and delight, they were all very well aware of what a Lifestraw was, but hadn’t actually bought any yet. They’re thrilled to take them on camping trips, and my inside-person mom is keeping some in her pantry in case we ever have an emergencies that prevent us from having clean running water.”’

This sunscreen is 100% mineral-based and infused with skin-loving ingredients that make it a great multitasker. It is one of the most comfortable mineral sunscreen formulas I’ve tried. It’s formulated with zinc oxide, DNA repair enzymes and vitamin E — so not only is it preventing sun damage, but it’s helping to nourish and repair the skin as well.

The Isdin sunscreen is significantly lighter and easier to blend than traditional mineral SPFs, and doesn’t have that lingering zinc smell that personally drives me up the wall. It dries down to a soft matte and is a nice base for dewy makeup looks. While this sunscreen blends well, there is a very slight white cast that’s typical of a mineral sunscreen formulation. The combination of lightweight finish, formula and UV protection has made it worth the troubleshooting.
