The material is thick but not too thick, perfect for a chilly night or to wear over a sundress. I am very happy with this purchase and recommend it if you are looking for a stylish well-made denim jacket." —J TonPrice: $25.98+ (available in sizes XS–XL and three colors)

Promising review: "This is a really functional straw knit sun visor with a wide enough brim for sun coverage without being too large like some of the other visors. It can also be roll up into a small cylinder to store in purse or luggage for travel. The most innovative feature is the adjustable and elastic band in the back.

A versatile Henley tank top that's breezy, basic, and somehow still makes you feel like the main character at the airport bar.

A linen collared blouse to have an elevated moment, but without elevating your body temperature right along with it. If you're hitting up somewhere warm but still want some ~sophistication~ in your travel capsule wardrobe, throw this in your cart yesterday.
Promising reviews: "I bought the light pink and the emerald green for a Caribbean vacation, and I am SO glad I did! They were perfect for the tropical climate. Also, the size chart was very helpful, very accurate for me!" —K. Southern"I've been wearing these shirts in summer for a couple of years. Got 'em in all different colors. I wash them in warm water and hang them to dry, and have had no problem with shrinkage. Nice roomy light cotton shirt with a classic, clean look." —LevanterPrice: $17.99+ (available in sizes 16–26 and 10 colors)
An ultra-compact hooded raincoat so compact, it disappears into your bag until the skies pull a fast one. Then boom — you're the dry, smug one in the group photo.
Promising reviews: "Jacket worked great. Came just in time for my trip to Kauai. I liked the big front pockets; they provided coverage for my cell phone in the rain. Looking forward to using this jacket for outdoor runs when it is wet." —Sonia Giordanella"I'm going on an Alaskan cruise and was told that a waterproof windbreaker is a MUST. The coolest part to me is that the windbreaker fits in the small pouch that comes with it, which is extremely practical while I'm exploring the sights in Alaska. The windbreaker wasn't difficult to stuff in the pouch or take back out either. I really like it!" —Liyah TortillaPrice: $30.39+ (available in sizes S–3XL and 25 colors)
A perfect-length floral print romper if flowers and romping about are two of your favorite things. Soft, stretchy, and lightweight, you'll be so happy to have this romper on deck for all your vacation goings-on.
A tie-front midi dress because if warm weather isn't for effortless twirling and perfectly casual vibes, then what are we even doing here? Lightweight and backless, this dress is as practical as it is gorgeous and will be your bestie at home and on the go.
Or a similar tie-front satin dress if you want the same look but different material. (Or you just love the style so much, you want a plethora of color and style options for your travels!)
A pair of walking sneakers made for long strolls, spontaneous detours, and 'let's just walk to dinner' energy. (And for the kind of price that means you can splurge on extra-fancy desserts with all the moolah you've saved!)
Promising reviews: "Got these a year ago and use them regularly for my daily walks and when I travel. They are holding up great! They're so comfortable I can walk for hours in them!" —nid.zu"These are so comfortable. I really wasn't expecting them to be as comfortable as they are. I brought them for an outfit while traveling, and now I work out with them too. Excellent, comfortable sneakers." —TaraPrice: $28.99+ (available in sizes 5.5–10 and 10 colors)
Some baggy overalls so you can be comfy and fashionable through any and all layovers! It's truly a choose-your-own-adventure on what you'll pair underneath: tank top, sweater, tee, or just a basic cami. You've got 100 different options for 100 different destinations. (RIP if you have 100 layovers, though, tbh.)
A pair of palazzo pants that reviewers love for giving the illusion of a maxi skirt with the non-chafing comfort of pants. We love a piece that can go from beachy cover-up to candlelit dinner with just a shoe swap.
A soft, stretchy longline sports bra to give your wardrobe the perfect layering piece or to wear all on its own. It's padded and offers medium support, so it'll be a great fit for low-impact exercise outings (hell-o walks in new places!) or for general everyday wear.
A travel backpack that holds your laptop, your snacks, your entire sense of calm — and still fits under the seat in front of you. Organization level: ✨elite✨
Promising reviews: "I bought this backpack with the intention of using it for work on a daily basis which I do and it perfect it fits my laptop and everything thing else I need to bring with me. It did however come most in handy when I traveled abroad I used it to put my sweaters or souvenirs and I was able to add a lock so I did not have to worry about being pickpocketed. I definitely recommend it." —Diana S"Love this bag, I've been using it for four years now, I travel often at least two flights a month. This bag serves as my laptop bag and on trips under two days also serves to carry my clothes and shoes. It has taken a beating in four years being shoved under plane seats and through security. I'm sitting in the airport now and see some wear and tear on the handles so am thinking about replacing it since it's so cheap, that being said there is nothing wrong with it functionally." —Mary PineiroPrice: $26.99+ (available in two sizes and five colors)
A pair of high-waisted bike shorts if you want a sporty look to go with your fave tees or want some beneath-the-skirt anti-chafing superpowers on your side so you don't get chub-rub on vacay. (No thank you.)
A pair of high-waisted pants with a tie-waist and an elastic waist, so you get all the chicness of Real Pants (TM) without having to worry about being uncomfortable during your roaming.
A pair of Pavoi huggie hoop earrings to accent any and all vacay OOTDs (from casual to dressy) for less than the price of a plane beverage.
Promising review: "I bought these for travel (extreme sports, water activities, extended mask-wearing, avoiding theft, etc). These have been great! I often forget I have them on and sleep in them. They're not flashy but they're very sophisticated, so I wear them all the time now. The backs are extremely secure and I've seen no color change after salt water, chlorine, consistent wear." —VeePrice: $13.45+ (available in two materials and three colors)
A beachy cardigan that can do double time as a cool going-out-to-dinner accessory or as a swimsuit cover-up.
Promising reviews: "This is a very beautiful cover-up and it really added a nice touch to my plain dress. I received many compliments on it. It's comfortable, and I traveled with it, and it came out of the suitcase without wrinkles. It could also go over a bathing suit or even be worn with a tank top and shorts." —Colette H."I am very pleased with this purchase. It was just what I wanted in a lightweight tropical cover-up for our upcoming vacation. It has a nice finish and looks expensive." —Martha JohnsonPrice: $13.99 (available in sizes S–5XL and 44 styles)

Check out this great neo-noir before it leaves Amazon Prime Video next week (July 2025)
When you're actually trying to figure out which titles you should prioritize on a given streaming service, it can feel almost impossible. Speaking for myself, I know that trying to pick a single thing to watch from among the vast array of titles available on services like Prime Video can feel almost impossible. What I often do, then, is pick something that won't be available for long. Prime Video has plenty of titles coming and going all the time, and if you're looking for one to watch this month, I'd start with To Live and Die in L.A. Here are three reasons you should check it out: Recommended Videos We also have guides to the best new movies to stream, the best movies on Netflix, the best movies on Hulu, the best movies on Amazon Prime Video, the best movies on HBO Max, and the best movies on Disney+. It's a dark, moody action movie Although To Live and Die in L.A. is in some ways a standard cop action movie of the 1980s, in others it's much stranger and more nihilistic than that description makes it sound. The film follows a rogue cop who, after losing his partner to a master counterfeiter, becomes hellbent on revenge. As he pushes the boundaries of his job, we find ourselves wondering whether he's gone way too far in the pursuit of justice. It's a nervy movie that you might walk away from hating both the hero and the villain, which remains one of the reasons why it's aged well. It's rarely available to stream This is a slightly unusual reason, but one of the best reasons to check out To Live and Die in L.A. is that the movie is actually usually pretty hard to watch on streaming. This is a rare window where the movie's available, and given that it's one of the definitive action movies of the 1980s, it's well worth your time. Given the uncertainty of licensing rights, you can never tell when a movie is going to pop up on streaming and when it might disappear for years at a time. While streaming isn't the only way to watch movies, it's often the most convenient, so take advantage of this convenience while you can. It features Willem Dafoe at his villainous best While the entire ensemble of To Live and Die in L.A. is doing excellent work, the movie's true standout performer is almost undoubtedly Willem Dafoe, who plays the master counterfeiter. Dafoe is not known for playing nice guys, but his performance as the villain at the center of this movie is particularly unsettling because he's so cold and calculating. Dafoe can be big and hammy, but here, he underplays almost every scene in a way that makes him seem deeply real and just as malevolent as you would want him to be. It's a great early turn from one of our best actors. You can watch To Live and Die in L.A. on Amazon Prime Video.

"Best 10 Bucks I Ever Spent": 23 Phenomenal Things From Amazon's "Internet Famous" List Reviewers Wish They Could Give More Than 5 Stars
We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. Shopping · "I can't believe this $6 product is better than the Nars, Bobbi Brown, and Charlotte Tilbury products that I have tried." —one *very* impressed reviewer after discovering this under-eye brightener Fun fact: Amazon has an "Internet Famous" section curated with TikTok-viral products. Here are a few of the current ones so beloved by reviewers that they are *definitely* worth the hype: 1. A sling backpack that checks all the boxes for style, functionality, and convenience. It's surprisingly spacious and has all the pockets you could dream of, and two of them are big enough for full-size water bottles. It's perfect for bringing along while traveling, hiking, and visiting theme parks. (BTW, reviewers say this fits perfectly inside lockers.) Promising review: "I would give this sling 10 stars if possible! Been searching and searching for a sling that will stay on my shoulder (a huge feat), is comfortable, phone easily accessible, has organization, is not too small or huge, holds water bottle, constructed with premium fabric yet looks professional rather than like I'm ready for a day in the woods. This is it!! An awesome bag! Can be worn as a sling over the shoulder or as a crossbody. Perfection." — Amazon Customer 2. A nifty gadget called the Bug Bite Thing because the mosquitoes are out and making their presence very known. This suction tool is designed to extract the insect saliva or venom left under the skin when you're bitten or stung and provide relief from itching. See it in action on TikTok! Promising review:" Best 10 bucks I ever spent! Oh my god, where has this simple, effective, ingenious device been all my life, and why hadn't I ever heard of it before? My 7-year-old got a bumble bee sting (yes, they DO sting and it HURTS). A few days later, I got stung by one. Then my 3-year-old got stung by one. Upon using this, it immediately stopped itching. I'd give this product a million stars!" — Me 3. An adorable pool floaty designed for your little future Olympic gold medalist so that they can learn proper swimming posture. It has four adjustable layers you can add or remove as needed to customize the float assistance and get the perfect buoyancy for your kiddo's swimming level. It's suitable for ages 3–12 years old, and they must weigh over 20 pounds. Promising review:"I've given other products 5 stars before, and if I could, I would give this one 10! My daughter is four now and always wearing a life vest, but I knew that she was ready to swim. I came across this while looking to upgrade her life fast and thought that, with the price being so reasonable, I would give it a shot. I could not be happier with the experience! She really wears the thing out too, using it three to five times a week and jumping in the water. It's so much better than a life vest because it goes with their natural buoyancy rather than encouraging complete dependence. If you're thinking about getting this, don't debate any longer — go for it, you won't regret it!" — ToddlersMom 4. A three-pack of vintage-inspired polarized sunglasses because you've been guilty of misplacing, sitting on, or stretching out your other shades by wearing them like a headband a few too many times. And let's be real — doing all that to a $200 pair of Ray-Bans just isn't it. Promising reviews:"I've been buying these for years. They replaced my Ray-Bans that look identical! Fit great and with the price point, I don't have to worry too much with my kids and being on the go!" — Jessica M "I wish I could give them 10 stars. So cute, made well, packing was perfect and came w accessories" — Chassie Price: $18.99 (available in 12 sets of three, as well as two-packs and individual pairs) 5. A heavy-duty Shark vacuum with a detachable canister so you can move freely from room to room, reaching tricky areas like stairs, blinds, and even those ceiling cobwebs! It boasts *impressive* suction that can easily transition from carpet and hardwood to tile and linoleum, with a built-in HEPA filter to lock in dust and allergens. Its two attachments — a wide upholstery tool and a narrow crevice one — can efficiently suck up debris before you fall victim to goldfish crumbs between your toes (a sensory nightmare). To give context for the photo on the right: The reviewer first cleaned their living room with a Bissell, then followed up with the Shark. You can see how much more dirt and hair the Shark picked up that the Bissell left behind. Promising review:"Holy mother of god, this vacuum is incredible. It sucked up so much dust and dirt from my carpet, it feels like a brand-new carpet and as if I've never vacuumed my floors before. 1 0/5 stars, would HIGHLY recommend this vacuum. A random video on Facebook of this vacuum sucking up glitter and various bits and sizes of confetti convinced me to buy this." — Maria Yuhas 6. A cruelty-free Catrice "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener making waves for its ability to hide and brighten dark circles. Your old concealers might start to feel a bit jealous of this one's color-adapting formula, lightweight feel, and seamless blending. To use, apply this in thin layers to avoid creasing, then follow with your favorite concealer and setting powder if you like. If you don't like applying products with your fingers, they also make a triangle-shaped puff that's perfect for using with this. Promising reviews: "I would give this product 10 stars if I could!!! This stuff has me in complete AWE!! It is a game changer, light, easy to apply with your fingertips, and looks AWESOME alone or paired with your favorite powder foundation! I'm going to be purchasing more and hopefully this product will be around a long time!!" — Cattipillar08 "I can't believe this $6 product is better than the Nars, Bobbi Brown, and Charlotte Tilbury products that I have tried. I didn't even set it, and it lasted all day in the 100-degree Arizona heat yesterday! I also have very sensitive skin, and this did not cause any reactions." — Charlene B. Psst — these are also available with matching setting powders for a more matte look! 7. A pair of scrunch workout shorts the gym girlies are saying is a copy of the often sold-out Dfyne leggings — and at almost half the price. Reviewers describe the fabric as thick, stretchy, and squat-proof, with the right amount of compression. Take this as a warning, though: You'll have to pick your jaw up off the floor after seeing how good it makes your bum look. Promising reviews:"Dfyne is always sold out, so I decided to try these. I put them side by side with my Dfyne shorts, and they're the exact same quality, just no brand names." — Anon "There are a lot of workout bottoms for sale. These are popular for a reason. The high waistband gives reassurance as you move through your workouts. I may experience slight roll down if I'm doing a lot, but it's nothing like what I've experienced in other shorts/workout pants that were horrendous with roll down. I wash mine in my washer/dryer regularly, and I'm not encountering any issues. I'm comfortable wearing these as everyday shorts, I like the longer cut on the legs instead of being cut too close to the booty. 100/10 would recommend." — haley 8. A power scrubber brush, which attaches to your drill to do all the hard scrubbing for you, saving your elbow grease for something else — like popping open a bottle of wine after a long day's work of cleaning. Useful Products is a US-based small business established in 2007 by car wash owner, electrician, and former bodybuilder Anthony LaPolla that specializes in drill-cleaning brushes and attachments. Note: Each color of the Drill Brush attachment corresponds to the type of bristles they have, and each one is best suited for a specific type of cleaning job (for example, the yellow brush has medium bristles, best used for bathroom cleaning — bathtubs, showers, tile, and porcelain). Be sure to check the listing for which color is best for your intended purpose before buying! Promising review:"Watch out sliced bread, there's a new unit of measurement in town. I used the larger diameter flat brush for 90% of the shower. Glass, tiles, floor, I drilled it all. I used the toilet brush-shaped head for corners and the slopes, and the smallest brush for hard-to-reach spots. There were spots of mold my wife and I tried to scrub in the tiles grout that we could never get out. After subjecting the mold to the unbridled power of my drill and these brushes, it went running and screaming to the drain. After ceasing my maniacal laughter, I stopped to marvel at the fact that something we've scrubbed with hand brushes for hours, literally, was clean in a matter of seconds. Since I cannot rate items 100+ stars on Amazon's limited rating service, I was forced to give this product a mere 5-star review." — Daniel Rose 9. A mess-free, reusable Bluey aqua art pad, aka the ultimate lifesaver for parents (or fun aunts and uncles) to keep little ones entertained without the mess while on road trips, in waiting rooms, or even just a chill afternoon at home. Just fill the provided brush pen with water and let them go to town! The set comes with one spiral-bound pad with four aqua art sheets, four story sheets, and the water brush pen. Promising review: "The best invention ever. If I could give this more than 5 stars, I would. These are the best coloring books ever. You just add water to the pen and they can color away! They're reusable and don't make a mess, so you can use them at home, in the car, without tight supervision. I can just give my daughter the coloring book and not worry that my whole house will be covered in crayon or marker. And the best part is that it fades and she can do it again and again!" — michelle kelly 10. A Bissell multipurpose portable cleaner because this little wizard is capable of handling all the messes life throws at you, from the spilled coffee stain on your car seat to the mark your potty-training pup left on your new rug. It's portable and has a large tank, which = more cleans in between refills. It's like watching a spell unfold, turning that mess into a memory. Each cleaner comes with a trial size of Bissell's Spot & Stain Formula, which is also available on Amazon for $12.99! Check out a TikTok of the Bissell cleaner in action. Promising reviews:" Wish I'd bought this years ago. Best thing for cat puke. It's really that simple. Use a good shampoo additive, and ta-da! Like magic. Works so much better than any other method. Seriously." — Charlee L. "This machine is amazing. Easy to fill the solution, clean with and clean out after. I would give it more time than 5 stars if I could!" — Jacqueline 11. A Revlon one-step hair dryer and volumizer (with nearly 400,000 5-star ratings!!!) allowing you to dry and style your hair in one fell swoop, which means you can hit snooze a few more times in the morning and still come out looking like you just stepped out of the salon. Unlike other hair dryers, this one can be held closer to the roots and scalp for a higher volume and lift and helps you curl hair at the end while it dries. It comes with three heat settings and is designed to work on all hair textures — reviewers with 2a–4c hair mentioned it working for them. Promising review: "I always read the reviews before I buy them. If I could give this product 1,000 stars, I would. Just buy it and see the difference to your hair. I have thick, wavy, shoulder-length hair. This hair dryer got my hair really salon-perfect. It cuts hair-blowing time in half and leaves my hair frizz-free, silky, and soft. Love this product soooo much that I threw out my blow-dryer and brushes. I now only use the Revlon!!!!!!!!"— Antonella M. 12. A fast-paced game of Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza that'll have everyone laughing all day long, no matter what age. It's pretty straightforward to learn, and you're able to pack it up and play it anywhere. It's perfect for family fun *or* a new addition to drunk game night — but don't be fooled by the cute design; reviewers call it "mind-bending" for a reason! Amazon It's recommended for ages 8 and up! Here's how to play: You deal all the cards out to your two to four players, and everyone keeps their mini deck face down. Everyone takes a turn putting a card down in the middle of the table, saying one of the words "taco," "cat," "goat," "cheese," and "pizza," in that order. If the picture on your card matches the word that's said, everyone slaps their hand on the card in a pile as quickly as possible. The last person on the pile has to take the stack and add them to their cards, and whoever runs out of cards first wins! BTW, Dolphin Hat Games is a small business that specializes in family-friendly card games! Promising review:" So much fun — I wish I could give it more stars! I have had such fun playing this with my 6- and 8-year-old grandchildren! It is easy to learn, but so much fun. Even better, it is a game you can fit in when you don't have a ton of time (it can be played quickly, unlike Monopoly, haha...). Quick-moving and hilarious — you won't be sorry you made this purchase!" — MiniDiana 13. A bottle of multi-use Bio-Oil ready to tackle whatever you throw at when you're channeling your inner Gordon Ramsay and have a mishap that leaves a souvenir scar, or your skin decides to go full desert mode, leaving you wondering when you moved to the Sahara. It's loaded with the good stuff (vitamin E, chamomile, a hint of lavender oil) to improve the appearance of scars and marks and hydrate your skin. Promising review:"If I could give this 10 stars, I would. Last year I broke both arms and had surgery on a few things, which left me with nasty scars. :( As soon as casts and bandages were all gone, I immediately started using this oil. I don't use very much, just a couple of small drops, but oh man, can I see a difference. I will always have the scars; nothing I can do to take those away, but this oil has changed the color of the skin on and around my scar to its natural color. Like I said, I don't use much at all — I purchased it a year ago and still have over half the bottle left." — Sara 14. The fan-fave Nyx makeup setting spray that every makeup enthusiast should have in their arsenal. A few spritzes of this miracle elixir will lock your makeup in place, preventing it from smudging, melting, or fading away. It's perfect for those days when your foundation seems to have a mind of its own. This personal makeup assistant comes in three different finishes — matte, dewy, and plump. Fun fact: The reviewer in the second photo said they worked a 12-hour shift bartending and thanks to this setting spray, their makeup still looked fabulous. Promising reviews: "If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Makes my makeup last all night!" — Jillian "Amazing makeup setting spray. I was very skeptical at first because it looked too good to be true for the price, but this little bottle works like magic. I apply my makeup early in the morning, and it lasts the whole day without melting down. Even in the warmest days, my face is never shiny or oiled, and I tend to sweat a lot on my face. I have very sensitive skin and suffer from rosacea, and this product does not irritate my skin. I'm sold. Already bought a second one for my makeup bag." – Feisty Shopper 15. A clear stadium bag perfectly sized to fit all your essentials: your phone, ID, credit cards, a small bottle of sunblock, and even a mini fan to keep you cool when you're dancing your heart out at all those upcoming music festivals. Promising review:"Bought for concerts and festivals — holds everything needed and then some! Nice thick and flexible clear plastic with very strong stitching and a very comfortable adjustable strap! I went to a festival, and there were some massive torrential downpours that sprung up. I was pretty well soaked to the skin. NOTHING inside the bag got wet at all! Not in the outside pocket nor in the main bag compartment! Absolutely giving this bag 5 stars, and would give it 10 if I could!" — Leeta Nor 16. Kitsch's overnight heatless curls set capable of creating dreamy curls while you catch some z's. Imagine going to bed with your hair wrapped up in a super soft rod, only to wake up with curls that are nothing short of fabulous. And here's the kicker: It's all done without an ounce of heat. This product is designed for use on all hair types! Promising review:"I had low expectations for this product to work because curls from a curling iron fall out of my hair pretty immediately. I was blown away by how well these heatless curls turned out, though! It's easy enough to do, but there's a bit of a learning curve to getting the curls tightly wrapped. It takes less than 10 minutes, and my hair is ready to go when I wake up. I'm a side sleeper and find it a tad uncomfortable to sleep on, but it's a small price to pay for curls that last all day, in my opinion. I'd give this 10 stars if I could — truly a game changer that's made my mornings so much easier." — Stephanie 17. Levi's Cinch Baggy Jeans to solve the age-old problem with denim shopping: that ANNOYING waist gap. These have a built-in cinch band, letting you bring in the waist for a customized fit that feels tailored just for you. And they offer just the right amount of stretch, moving with you so you can enjoy both style and comfort without feeling restricted. Promising reviews: "If I could give them 1,000 stars, I would! I have been on the hunt for jeans for so long, and I finally found them." — Zoë Van den Berg "This is one of my favorite pairs of jeans. I have been looking for something in this fit for some time now. I am usually a 32 and quite curvy, which causes waist gaps in most jeans. So I ordered the 32 and 33. They both fit quite well. I went with the 33 because it's longer and more roomy around my hips, and gives me the baggy fit I wanted. The cinch waist allowed me to tighten the waist. It really is perfect, and I just ordered this in another color." — Peace 18. E.l.f.'s Halo Glow Liquid Filter that not only serves as a radiant, blurring primer but also mixes seamlessly with your moisturizer or foundation for that "I woke up like this" glow. And for those days you're feeling extra, a little dab on top of your makeup makes for the most natural-looking highlight. But wait, there's more! It's packed with hyaluronic acid and squalane, which means your skin gets a delicious drink of hydration every time you wear it. Promising reviews: "With this, I can just skip the primer and even the moisturizer (but I still try to at least get some sunscreen in there, which we all know is very important), which saves me a ton of time and also allows me to be able to go out to run errands, etc. without worrying about my makeup/skin/how I look! And for such an affordable price, it's a very rare value!! Believe me, please, when I say that this product is true 'magic-in-a-bottle' that smashes all those other similar products to bits!" — Tami "100 stars!! Perfect as a base for your foundation if you're going for the glass skin look. Leaves a dewy finish and feels great." — Shelly Melanson (Magner) 19. A bottle of Paula's Choice salicylic acid liquid exfoliant useful for clearing out pores and evening your skin's texture and tone. It's gentle enough to use daily, unlike those other gritty face scrubs that feel like you're sandblasting your skin. Promising review: "12 out of 10 stars. Wow, just wow! I waited two weeks to post, and my skin has totally transformed in those two weeks. My dark spots are nearly gone, pores are definitely less visible, and my skin just feels so clean and clear. I notice a huge difference when applying makeup now. I use it with a toner, and I use it only at night, just because I'm not great at applying SPF during the day. This will definitely be a part of my skincare routine now." — Lauren 20. Kinetic Sand, a delightful sensory toy that brings the beach right to your fingertips, minus the sunburn and sand in weird places. It flows through your fingers like regular sand, but here's the twist: It sticks together and holds its shape like some kind of enchanted clay. You won't have to worry about a messy cleanup, and it never dries out! Promising reviews: "I would rate this 10 stars if I could. The entertainment value is impeccable! It entertains my 2-year-old toddler for hours! The quality and design of it are perfect! I have recommended this so all my friends with toddlers. It's a great sensory toy!" — Amber Goolsby "This stuff is great! I got it for my grandchildren. No mess, smell and easy to clean up! It's like magic. I liked playing with it too. It's great for if you need physical therapy for your hands." — Van 21. Color Wow's "Raise The Root" thickening and lifting spray so you can get (and keep) instant volume and body-ody-ody during these humid summer days. It works by acting like a spring at the roots of each strand, giving your mane that extra oomph without weighing it down. For that va-va-voom look, simply spray this product onto your damp *or* dry locks, focusing on the roots. Style your hair as you wish, and lock in the volume by using a blow-dryer for results that last all day. Promising review: "If I could give this product 10 stars, I would! I have a cowlick at the crown of my head that I struggle with daily. Saw this product and bought the small one to give it a try. Oh my gosh, it works!!!' Even the next morning (which, after sleeping, is at its worst), and it was still covered, I was shocked. Now I wish I had bought the bigger bottle. Truly the best product for this reason I've ever used, and I'm a hairdresser, and I've tried many, many products. Highly recommend." — Jillian Feltz 22. A handy tri-fold mirror that hangs right on your bathroom door, giving you a 360-degree view of your gorgeous self while you snip those split ends, touch up your roots, or braid your hair. Promising reviews:"The mirror is very easy to set up and perfect for its price! It's portable, nice, and of good quality. 100/10." — Oracio Lopez "This has helped me so much to do my root touch-ups and toning at home. I can see better the sides and back of my head. The size is perfect, and the height is adjustable. It's folds conveniently into a thin mirror, making it easy for me to store in my small bathroom cabinet." — Jenny G 23. A jar of 40% urea cream if the skin on your feet is A) thick, B) rough, C) cracked, or all of the above. This cream helps slough away corns, calluses, and dry patches while bringing your ~sole~ back to life with some much-needed rehydration. You can use it on feet, elbows, knees, and hands. It's made from natural ingredients such as aloe vera, safflower oil, chamomile, and tea tree oil. Promising review:"First off, I NEVER write reviews. But this is such a miracle product, I had to say something. I have had the hardest, driest feet with major cracking for almost my whole life (nearly 50 years!). I have tried numerous products. I pretty much had given up. But then my neighbor recommended this cream. I was skeptical at first, but after using it for about a month, I could not believe the change! My feet are SO MUCH BETTER! Not the hard, cracking feet anymore! Even my nail tech shakes his head in disbelief every time he sees my feet. He just can't believe it! He now recommends this to his clients! I use it 5-7 nights a week. Put the cream on the feet, put on some socks, and leave it all night while I sleep. I cannot stress how big of a miracle this stuff is!! I am still in shock at how good it is! I wish I had before pictures, but it was REALLY BAD!! Not anymore!!!! I would have given this 10 stars if I could!" — Shari Curley

This Might Be The Highest-Rated Suitcase We've Ever Seen — And It's Less Than $70
We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. Shopping · If travel is on your 2025 bucket list, keep reading. If travel and adventure are on your 2025 bucket list, you're going to need a good suitcase. A high-quality suitcase is one that can take some rough handling (we've all seen how airport baggage handlers toss those things around), rolls smoothly so it won't slow you down and helps keep you organized. Think a suitcase checking all three boxes will have a triple digit price tag? Think again. Travelers are obsessed with this Amazon Basics suitcase, which costs less than $70. Almost 50,000 people have bought and rated the Amazon Basics suitcase, with the vast majority giving it a perfect five-star rating. What makes it so great? Customers who left reviews like how durable the hard shell is and how easily the wheels glide. The outer shell is scratch-resistant, which means it won't show the wear and tear of all those journeys. This suitcase is also expandable, giving an extra 25% more space for those times when your suitcase is filled to the gills. Use the innermost zipper to save space and fit overhead bin requirements, or expand it and use the outer zipper for times when you really need more room. The inside of the suitcase is also Type A traveler's dream: There are three zipper pockets, which makes staying organized easy. It does come in black, but if you want your suitcase to stand out at baggage claim, go for the light blue, navy, orange, or rose gold color options. No matter which one you choose, you can rest assured that your stuff is safe. Still on the fence? Check out these reviews from shoppers who bought the suitcase: 'It's got everything you need for such a reasonable price! It can definitely fit at least three days of clothes, has extra zipper pockets and compartments. The wheels glide with ease and it's super lightweight.' — Brittany Newman 'Just returned from a trip to Brussels and purchased this suitcase as my carry-on. It was perfect and fit in the overhead bin without any complications. It met the airline's measurement requirements without any problems. I love the color as well which made it easy to spot when we did have to check in our luggage on a couple of flights due to it being a very full flight. Overall, I would highly recommend this suitcase. It's incredibly durable, has lots of space and the wheels rolled easily.' — Amazon Customer 'I was told about these suitcases and went for it! Honestly, they're such good quality. I used them on international travel and they held up well.' — Magare 'I love this suitcase and was given it as a Christmas gift. It's so bright and true to its color. It's easy to spot at the airport [and has a] hard cover, [which is] the best choice to go with. There are many pockets inside so I can organize. It expands when I go a little nuts on bringing things home. I wish all my family would have one! I highly recommend it.' — Amanda 'I took it on a trip to the Bahamas and went through six different airports and two cruise lines. [The suitcase didn't get any] dents. Nothing was broken and all the zippers worked perfectly. I packed for a seven day trip and had plenty of room including three sets of shoes, plus some of my daughter's clothes that wouldn't fit in her overhead carry-on. I would recommend it all day. It's been on several trips now and still works perfectly and solid.' — Jamie F.
