Buzz Feed28-06-2025
SweatBlock antiperspirant wipes that'll become your saving grace if you're running around so much, you're constantly dripping in sweat. These babies are prescription strength and designed to take on hyperhidrosis, nervous sweating, and hormonal sweating. These wipes did NOT come to play!
A sweat-controlling whole body deodorant designed to be applied to ANYWHERE you typically get sweaty — and it's designed to keep you sweat-free for up to 72 hours in addition to being odor-free. Witchcraft? Perhaps, but, BRB, I need to dip my entire body in this substance for the next few months.
And a dermatologist-recommended sweat-absorbing hand cream that'll put your perpetually clammy hands in their place — go ahead, go on that first date on a hot July night, end it romantically holding hands without worrying your palms will feel unpleasantly moist.
An ice roller, which is said to help decrease under-eye puffiness, minimize fine lines, and shrink the look of pores, as well as relieve headaches and sore muscles. Most importantly, it'll become your I'm-way-too-hot lifeline — roll it along your neck for an instant cool-down.
Laneige Neo Blurring Powder that'll make you feel like an oil-absorbing, pore-blurring wizard. All you'll have to do is dab-dab-dab with the lovely puff the powder comes with, and then admire your perfectly matted complexion for the rest of the day, despite how sweaty you've been up until this point.
A set of absorbent bra liners made from a seemingly magical blend of cotton and bamboo who will work together to keep your uncomfortable underboob sweat at bay. You'll also be happy to have it on hand when your only clean bra is the one with a pesky underwire — these can add some extra cushion!
Gold Bond Friction Defense Stick to help you fight the good fight against your thighs and summer chafing — is there anything more irritating (literally) then wearing your favorite dress only to be left with red, painful welts by the end of the day? I think not.
A pair of anti-chafing shorts you'll slide on and want to shout, "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN FOR ALL OF MY LIFE?!" because they are that life-changing. Throw 'em on under your dresses and skirts and kiss those sweaty thighs goodbye.
Or a splurge-worthy option from Thigh Society (who you've likely seen all over your Insta feed) that'll become your holy grail undergarment for summer and beyond — they're called "the cooling" slip shorts for a reason!
A cooling sheet set with thousands of positive reviews to give you the confidence to give 'em a shot despite only being 30 bucks! The set comes with pillow cases, a flat sheet, and a fitted sheet — everything you'd need to give your bed an upgrade.
A pillow-top cooling mattress pad made from 100% cotton that'll be a beautiful, breathable addition to your sleeping situation, especially if you're someone who always feels like a radiator when they climb into bed.
Plus, a cervical pillow with airy memory foam if you're a hot sleeper but need your head and neck cradled in a gentler way than a regular pillow. Also, it comes with an Arc-Chill pillowcase!
A Dreo oscillating tower fan with six (!!!) speeds you can aim directly at yourself to ensure your always-too-hot body is kept at the epitome of comfort at all times. Since it's bladeless, it won't make a racket while you're trying to get some shut-eye or watch Love Island USA.
Or a battery-operated stroller fan with a flexible handle you can wrap around your headboard or prop up on a coffee table to keep you at the perfect temperature — a must-have if you don't have a ton of space in your room for a tower fan!
And a portable handheld fan that's actually a triple threat — it's a fan (clearly), a power bank *and* a flashlight. You'll be MORE than glad during a summer heat wave when your power gets knocked out and you have this baby hanging out in your bag.
A heart-shaped silicone ice cube tray because summer is HERE, and your tendency to feel overheated and dehydrated will be too. Spruce up your iced coffees and Long Island iced teas with a little love in the form of these cubes. 💕
An Icebreaker to ensure you'll always have fresh ice at your fingertips — simply fill it, pop it in the freezer, use the handles to crack the ice (once it has frozen, obvs), then pour the cubes directly into your drink! It's leakproof and dishwasher safe.
An Owala FreeSip water bottle in an exciting color that'll ensure no one ever picks up theirs by mistake while they're chatting up the cute lifeguard at the pool this summer. Not to mention, it's made of triple-layered, vacuum-insulated stainless steel that'll keep their drink cold for 24 hours *and* two ways to drink from it (a spout and a straw!)
A rechargeable heated ice cream scoop so you won't have to wait for your Ben & Jerry's Chunky Monkey Ice Cream to soften before *literally* digging in. Not a moment to waste!!!
An at-home slushy-making cup for anyone who has been debating changing their name to "Sweaty Betty" this summer — cool yourself down with a daily slushy instead of trudging over to Social Security to fill out all that paperwork.
A Ninja Swirl machine you won't regret purchasing for a single second when you've been feeling like an actual hot mess all day and desperately need to cool yourself down. This gadget can make soft serve ice cream (GASP!) as well as frozen yogurt, frozen custard, sorbet, milkshakes, and scooped ice cream — you'll basically feel like you've just bought the ability to transform your kitchen into an ice cream shop whenever the mood strikes.
A fast-acting HyperChiller you can use directly with your hot coffee machine to magically transform it into an iced drink in less than a minute. It's a must-have if you're like me and run VERY hot, so drinking iced coffee is the only responsible choice.
A portable Chill-O-Matic Instant Beverage Cooler that'll make you feel like you've just inherited Elsa's ice powers — pop in any 12-ounce can and watch as it ~*magically~* cools the drink down to a perfect temp.
A silly windshield shade to keep your car cool while making it look like all four of the Golden Girls are cruising around — want to place bets that they're headed to pick up a cheesecake???
A packable floppy hat that'll fold up nice 'n' neatly in your tote bag and protect your pretty little face (it has built-in UPF 50!) so you can focus on more important things like what to order from the poolside bar.
A rolling beach cart capable of holding everything a parent may need when heading out for the day with their kiddos in tow (which is A LOT of stuff, TBH). The wheels can handle most terrains, including sand and dirt, and it'll fold up flat to easily fit in the trunk of your car. No need to break a sweat while getting all of your essentials down to the shore!
A swiveling UPF 50 plus protection umbrella with an adjustable clamp you can attach to a chair (or a stroller, parents!) to create some much-needed shade on hot summer days.
An adjustable mister with a neck that's more flexible than your yoga instructor — rig it up above your fave place to catch some sun and let it ensure you're kept nice 'n' cool even when the sun is at its strongest. Apparently, it can keep any outdoor area up to 20 degrees cooler (sign me up).
A cooling towel you soak in cold water and place around your neck to keep you feeling refreshed, even if you've been running errands in the hot summer heat. Reviewers also say you can use it to cool down your dog, as well!
Burt's Bees After Sun Soother lotion for when you get attacked by the sun's harsh rays despite your best efforts. This lotion is packed with aloe and coconut oil to help your skin feel cooler after taking an unfortunate hit.
Or an aloe wrap you can cut to the exact size of that very oddly-shaped burn you managed to get when you fell asleep on the beach with your book lying on top of you. Oops. Anyways! It's filled with aloe vera, green tea, and vitamin E that'll hydrate and cool your red, aching skin.
Twister Splash — because why bother settling for the original when you can take it to the next level and add *water* into the mix? You and your fellow sweaty friends will be so happy to have this on hand when the next heat wave rolls around.
And an inflatable lounge pool even adults can enjoy, so you can pretend you're on vacation in the Hamptons instead of sweating your butt off on your apartment's tiny patio.

A set of waterproof "wet bags" you will curse yourself for not buying YEARS AGO, because they are tiny little lifesavers when you're on the move.

Braun's Epilator Gave Me The Smoothest Legs Ever

One thing about me, I'll do whatever it takes to avoid putting a razor to my skin. I'm prone to ingrown hairs, so I refuse to spend time shaving, just for those prickly hairs to grow back the next morning. So when I discovered an at-home device that removes hair for weeks without needing to shave every few days, it basically saved my summer. And no, it's not an at-home laser hair removal device—it's an epilator. If you're new to the epilation game, lemme fill you in. Epilators look a lot like electric razors, but instead of just trimming the hairs at the surface of your skin, it pulls them out from the root. That means no stubble after a short day or two. Instead, you're looking at smooth legs for weeks. And with consistent use, your hair could stop growing back all together. Think: laser hair removal results *without* the hefty price tag and constant appointments. And right now, you can get smooth skin for even less for Amazon Prime Day. Epilators aren't exactly a new invention (my mom used one in the '90s and her legs are still hairless to this day!), but Braun's updated version is sleeker, less painful, and packed with smart attachments to make your hair removal session as simple (and painless) as possible. The Braun Epilator Silk-épil 7 comes with a high-precision epilator head that can grab even the tiniest hairs, a skin contact cap to reduce discomfort, plus bonus attachments like a trimmer and razor head for quick touch-ups (which I haven't had the need to use yet). I've done two sessions on my underarms and legs, spaced about four weeks apart, and my hair has grown back so slowly and sparsely. Like, I've been wearing shorts all summer and haven't touched a razor since early June. I mean, these are the kind of results you get with hundreds of dollars worth of laser hair removal sessions. Full disclosure: The underarm area hurts a little more than the legs since the skin is thinner, but after one session I was used to it. The feeling is similar to a quick tweezer session, and hurts a lot less than laser or waxing, in my opinion. But if at-home IPL lasers are more your speed, a bunch are also on major sale for Prime Day, too! Find all the hair removal deals you'll ever need, below.
