One of our favorite teeth-whitening strips, these are coated in a layer of hydrogen peroxide to remove stains. Plus, they're flexible and easily mold to your teeth. There are 22 treatments in the box: 20 are 45-minute standard treatments and two are 60-minute express treatments.
You'll find an Owala reusable water bottle and tumbler on each of our editors' desks, both of which are on sale for Prime Day. 'I love the look and shape of my Owala tumbler — I prefer a side handle over one on top. The handle is incredibly comfortable and the bottle itself doesn't feel super heavy and doesn't make a ton of noise when I accidentally hit it against something,' says NBC Select commerce editor Cory Fernandez. 'It's also easy to clean, including the lid and straw. Plus, it keeps my iced drinks cold all day when I'm at work.' According to the brand, the bottle's dual-wall insulation helps keep drinks cold for up to 24 hours at a time.
The Echo Dot is a speaker, temperature sensor, home theater system and Wi-Fi extender all in one. The device can also stream music, podcasts and audiobooks, and it's compatible with Amazon Alexa, so you can set timers, get weather updates and more using voice commands.
This anti-frizz spray helps minimize heat damage and leaves hair looking glossy and smooth after styling, according to the brand. I use this product regularly before styling my hair because it doesn't weigh down my hair and smells great. The brand recommends evenly distributing the product through damp hair and blow drying afterward.
Make smoothies and juices from anywhere using this portable blender, which holds up to 18 ounces of your favorite blends. The base is rechargeable and you can sip from the lid, so you don't have to pour it in a separate container. It's also top-rack dishwasher-safe and fits in a car cup holder.
This battery-powered Ring camera lets you see, hear and talk to visitors directly from your smartphone or tablet. It has motion detection, color night vision and two-way talk, plus you can view a live feed and change your settings in the Ring app. The camera can stand on its own, or you can mount it on your wall.
This tinted sunscreen is one of our favorites for darker skin tones. It has iron oxides, which are mineral pigments that create tint, and titanium dioxide to protect your skin from the sun's harsh rays, according to the brand. It also has vitamin E to keep your skin hydrated and dimethicone, an emollient that helps your skin retain water.
This personal filter gets rid of parasites, microplastics and other impurities from your water as you sip through the mouthpiece. The slim, lightweight shape is also travel-friendly for outdoor adventures like hikes and camping trips.
You can mix this collagen powder into both hot and cold beverages, including water, smoothies, coffee and tea. It has collagen sourced from grass-fed, pasture-raised bovine, vitamin C and hyaluronic acid to keep bones, joints, nails and hair healthy, according to the brand.
This portable Bluetooth speaker is a must for summer — you can throw it in your backpack or tote bag for your trips to the beach or to sit by the pool. It's water-resistant and has up to five hours of playtime on a single charge.
If you have fine hair, making sure it doesn't fall flat can be a daily struggle. This shampoo has a blend of biotin and collagen, which helps hair look thicker and boosts volume. It also has fragrance notes of coconut, jasmine and lemon, so your hair will smell good hours after your shower.

US judge won't block FTC consumer lawsuit against Asbury Automotive

Aug 12 (Reuters) - A judge in Texas has refused to block the U.S. Federal Trade Commission from pursuing consumer protection and racial discrimination claims against a major auto dealership owner that argued the FTC's case was barred by the U.S. Constitution. In an order, opens new tab on Monday, U.S. District Judge Reed O'Connor in Fort Worth said Asbury Automotive Group (ABG.N), opens new tab had not met the high bar to preliminarily enjoin the agency's administrative case against it. Asbury, which the FTC accused of duping consumers with hidden fees and charging Black and Latino buyers more than others, lodged a wide-ranging lawsuit last year seeking to block the agency action. The company partly alleged that it was being denied the constitutional right to a jury trial, and that FTC commissioners and administrative law judges were improperly insulated from the broad removal powers of the U.S. president. Asbury had not shown a 'substantial likelihood' that it would succeed on the merits of its lawsuit, O'Connor said, and so he declined to issue a preliminary injunction. O'Connor dismissed most of Asbury's lawsuit. But he said he would weigh further arguments on whether the FTC's claims against Asbury belong in a federal court and not at the agency. Asbury and the FTC did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The FTC filed its administrative complaint against Asbury in August 2024, seeking an order that would require the company to stop its allegedly predatory and discriminatory consumer practices. The administrative action at the FTC was put on hold, opens new tab while the Texas court considers Asbury's lawsuit against the agency. The case is Asbury Automotive Group Inc v. Federal Trade Commission, U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, No. 4:24-cv-00950-O.

Retail sales boost of 2.5% ‘barely touching the sides' of costs, sector warns

July retail sales were up 2.5% on a year ago but growth is 'barely touching the sides' of covering the last budget's £7 billion in new costs on the sector, bosses have warned. The uptick in the UK's total retail sales was against growth of 0.5% last July and the 12-month average growth of 1.9%, according to British Retail Consortium (BRC)-KPMG data. Food sales increased by 3.9% on last July due to warm weather and a packed sporting schedule, although rising food inflation – now at 4%, according to latest BRC figures – meant increased spending was more a result of higher prices than improved demand. Non-food sales increased by 1.4% against a decline of 1.8% last July, with figures showing fashion sold well early in the month but deteriorated as weather worsened, while homeware and indoor furniture sales grew steadily, recovering from the previous year's decline. BRC chief executive Helen Dickinson said: 'With sales growth at these levels, it is barely touching the sides of covering the £7 billion new costs imposed on retailers at the last Budget. 'If the upcoming Autumn Budget sees more taxes levied on retailers' shoulders, many will be forced to make difficult choices about the future of shops and jobs, and ongoing pressure would push prices higher. 'Ultimately, this means more families struggling, particularly those on lower incomes, reduced consumer spending and a drag on economic growth.' Linda Ellett, UK head of consumer, retail and leisure markets at KPMG, said: 'The UK's fifth warmest July on Met Office record brought a boost to home appliance and food and drink sales. But rising inflation was also a driver of the latter and monthly non-food sales are only growing at around 1% on average at present. 'With employment costs having risen and inflation both a business and consumer side pressure, it remains a challenging trading environment for many retailers.' Separate figures from Barclays show consumer card spending grew 1.4% year-on-year in July – up from a decline of 0.1% in June – with discretionary spending up 2.4% as changeable weather led shoppers to both sunny and rainy day activities and items. Barclays also found clothing performing strongly, up 4.2%, while growth in online retail spending excluding groceries reached 4.9%, up from 2.4% in June, as shoppers made the most of discounted items and sales events including Prime Day. Pharmacy, health and beauty performed strongly, up 9.8%, while continuing to benefit from the enduring post-Covid 'lipstick effect' – where shoppers turn to small and affordable luxuries to boost their mood, Barclays said. However, confidence in the strength of the UK economy dipped once again in July, falling three points month-on-month to 22%, the lowest level seen since January's 21%. Karen Johnson, head of retail at Barclays, said: 'The summer sales, changeable weather and shoppers seeking the 'feel-good factor' led to a strong July for retailers, particularly among beauty, clothing and furniture stores. 'While confidence in the UK economy remains subdued, prudent money management, supported by the growing popularity of AI tools to help with budgeting, is contributing to a continued resilience in personal and household finances.'
