If you thought winter was bad, just wait for the bug bites, allergies, and chafing to kick in.
Please note that these aren't medical recommendations. Be sure to check with your doctor before starting any kind of treatment.
1. An easy-to-use nasal spray for quick relief from seasonal allergies. This saline rinse washes away irritants and helps to reduce tissue swelling so you can stop mouth breathing and rubbing your nose raw with tissues.
Read more about nasal sprays and allergies at Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review:" I cannot live without this spray! I have had bad sinuses since I was a kid. My boss recommended Xlear to me, and I have been a believer ever since. It actually burns sometimes when you spray it in your nostrils, but that is due to the Xylitol. After a few minutes, your nose starts to run and then the nasal passages are clear. Don't just try it once and say it doesn't work...use it as directed...it DOES work. At 53 years old with sinus challenges all my life, I am living proof! I use it all through allergy season...safe, effective, and NATURAL!!!" — KayKay67
Get it from Amazon for $11.79.
2. A roll-on migraine stick packed with cooling essential oils if you're looking for a way to tame the pain from headaches and migraines that's compact enough to put in a purse or pocket!
Read more about aromatherapy and stress and tension at Johns Hopkins.
Promising review:"So easy to use and carry with you. In fact, get several and have them with you at home or wherever is handy. This is the holy grail of migraine relief. Very little is needed. I roll on temples, by ears, above eyebrows, below cheekbones, back of the neck, and base of the skull. I use this anytime I need it. No offensive odor. Better than any medications that are prescribed or OTC. Very good with sinus congestion also." — c.b.

Promising review: "I have horrible allergies. I get frequent sinus pressure and headaches. I've tested out this without taking any pain medication, and it WORKS! I love it. Highly recommend." — Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $27.95+ (available in five styles and two-packs).

Fortunately, there's a third option! This non-greasy formula is packed with calcium, moisturizing oils, and vitamins to strengthen nails and condition cuticles.
Promising review:"My nails were in bad shape before I started using this product. I had one nail that would constantly split on the side, but not anymore. I saw the difference right away after using this product. The smell is great; it is a good moisturizer for your cuticles and contains wonderful ingredients. I definitely recommend it, and I will be purchasing another really soon." — Tasha Stewart
Get it from Amazon for $8.88.
5. A handy bite suction tool because the great outdoors would be a lot easier to enjoy if you weren't covered in bumps. Thankfully, this gadgets sucks out bug venom left behind under the skin to help reduce itchiness and swelling so things can get healed up a lot sooner.
You can also use it to treat bites from bees, wasps, biting flies, no-see-ums, chiggers, and sea lice.

Promising review: "Allergies were driving me wild, so I decided to try this. It stings a little when your nose is as dry and cracked as mine was, but it helped immensely. Bought two, so I can stash one in my office for emergencies!" — afraydknot
Get it from Amazon for $3.62 (also available in two-packs).
7. A pair of reusable anti-nausea bands that may help soothe churning stomachs caused by long car rides, cruises, and even pregnancy without copious amounts of Dramamine.

Promising review:"I have always suffered from motion sickness. My whole life, I have hated long car rides, even short car rides. As soon as I get in the car and buckle in, I already feel the nausea. I bought these for a 16-hour road trip, and they worked 100%. I felt perfectly comfortable the whole way through. I could even watch movies and text on my phone and feel alright. My two daughters suffer from the same thing (ages 1 and 3) to the point where they can't keep any food down. The kid's bands worked for them 100% of the time, too. 10/10 recommend. I'll be buying more for sure." — Veronica
Get a pair from Amazon for $8.53+ (available in five colors).
8. A bottle of professional-grade callus-removing gel so you can quickly get your feet sandal season ready by removing years' (I repeat, YEARS') worth of hard calluses without endless scraping and scrubbing.

Promising review:"I have the driest heels, and this is the ONLY product that has ever worked. Before I used this, my heels had some pretty deep cracks, and now they're almost baby-soft again. BUT please follow the directions. I left it on my super-dry, thick-callused heels for only three minutes, and the calluses were literally melting off! Wonderful product! So glad I don't have to go soak my feet in those tubs at the nail salon anymore." — Kiki
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in three scents).

Amazon
Promising review:"I just used it for five days in 90-degree-plus weather at Bonnaroo music festival in the middle of Tennessee on a farm in June with 100,000 people walking several miles, dancing, and sweating every day. I am happy to report that this product is a lifesaver. My thighs didn't chafe once, and I have big ones! I had to reapply once during the day. I strongly recommend buying this if you have large thighs and need relief from chafing. I couldn't wear dresses or skirts in the heat if I was walking anywhere, and now I live in them because of this stuff! Buy it! It works!" — Isaac
Get it from Amazon for $6.26.
10. A box of waterproof medicated pads that apply like bandages to finally force out the wart living rent-free under your skin.

Promising review:"I bought this on a whim when I saw someone review it on TikTok. After using it several times over the course of a week, I immediately noticed the difference in the color of my teeth. I'm a smoker and a heavy coffee drinker. I'm finding that this product will be a lifesaver in terms of what my smile looks like. I would definitely recommend!!" — Mully
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $18.95.

Read more about compression gloves and other strategies to help relieve hand pain at Mayo Clinic.
Promising review:"As a professional tennis racquet stringer, I often work for 8 to 10 hours straight at the stringing machine. At 58 years old and having done this work for many years, I have developed arthritis in my hands. I've worn out many pairs of gloves similar to these. Most are cheaply made and tear apart at the seams in days. ComfyBrace gloves are the best quality I have found. They provide the relief I need, they're comfortable, and they last longer than the other brands I've tried. With these gloves, I'm able to continue working a trade that I love. Thank you, ComfyBrace! Try these, and you will not regret it!" — M. McDonald
Get them from Amazon for $9.97 (available in sizes S–XL).

Promising review:"Amazing! I have very oily skin and I'm always shiny. I hate those blotting papers; this is so much better! I roll it all over my face several times a day and in seconds my skin is matte again. Also, it's like a nice little face massage when I do it. It is super easy to take apart to clean, and after using hot water and my facial cleanser it is dry pretty quick, though I usually just let it sit out overnight. Highly recommend!! I'm going to buy more so I can leave them all over — purse, diaper bag, bathroom, car!" — Brooke Burns
Get it from Amazon for $9.51.
14. A set of self-heating foot masks to help bring some relief after long shifts or nights out with your deadliest shoes. Just pop on the included booties and enjoy the tingly sensation of Epsom salts, lavender, and peppermint.
Get a closer look on TikTok!
BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord has these in her self-care toolkit:
"I'm a long-ish distance runner, and these were certainly an interesting experience for my feet! You slide them on and, after a few minutes, feel a tingling, mildly burning (in a good way) sensation. It doesn't quite numb your feet, but it relaxes them. I kept them on for 30 minutes and then toweled my feet off, and the tingling sensation slowly faded over the next 30 minutes. After that, my feet felt very refreshed and relaxed at a time of day when they're usually aching from all the miles I put in. The whole thing was a mess-free, easy process, and I will definitely keep them on hand for longer run days!"
Promising review:"Very soothing. My husband and l used these on our European vacation, and they definitely felt good on our feet!" — KS2018
Get a set of three pairs from Amazon for $11.97.

Promising review:"I've had this bottle for over a year! It's lasted with my family through Disney World, Destin spring break, and every time we go to the pool! I've had some bad sunburns. I slather this on and reapply after it's soaked in and I wake up with a deep tan. Whatever is in it is like magic! The smell is kinda weird to me, but as well as this lotion works it could smell like cough syrup and I'd still happily use it." — Natalie Smith
Get it from Amazon or $11.40.
16. An exfoliating mitt if you spend every shower examining your skin and wondering "How do I get rid of these bumps?" The answer: these gloves, which will slough away dead skin right before your eyes.

Promising review:"I could tell these mitts were going to be exactly what I needed right out of the box. Excellent quality and easy to use!

Promising review:"Why didn't I get these sooner? These work perfectly! You have all of those pants that used to fit great until a few years ago — you know, the ones in the back of your closet that you will wear again 'as soon as you lose a few pounds.' These extenders look simple enough, but you think that they won't work or will show. The good news is, they never show once you put your belt on, and, in my case, I've now got five pairs of chinos, three pairs of dress wool pants, and three pairs of jeans now back into my rotation! Buy these!" — JCI

Promising review: "Liquid I.V. does an amazing job hydrating. I purchase their product for 40+ employees who work in a construction-related industry. Hydration is so important while working in the hot Georgia sun, and this product aids in this 100%. Now, let's talk about the firecracker flavor! When we produced these for our crew, ages 23–60, all of their eyes lit up, and they were super excited. Many of them did not know this flavor existed. Quite honestly, I didn't either until I came across them on Amazon. They all loved the flavor. In particular, the ones who were older kept telling me it tasted like their childhood. Seriously, who hasn't stood outside an ice cream truck ordering the Firecracker Popsicle?" — Disney Diva

Promising review:"T his was another one of my TikTok purchases! I was skeptical, but my kids hate flossing their teeth, so I thought this might help in between making them floss. They work amazingly! My kids said they could see and feel a difference on the first use and I agree! They are definitely worth a try! I would suggest not pushing too hard; those tiny bristles really get in there, and if you push too hard, you might be sore like I was. It felt like after going to a dental cleaning." — AN
