11 Things We've Tried And Loved This Month June '25
A cuticle oil pen that will have your nails shining brighter than the sun — so warn everyone around you not to stare at them directly. Ok, maybe not that bright, but your nails will look fresh-from-the-salon shiny and the argan, coconut, and sunflower seed oils will add some moisture. It even comes in a ridiculously cute and convenient keychain tube so you can touch up your mani on the go.
A portable Thermacell mosquito repellent device, which is bound to become your new summer BFF. No seriously, you might start planning road trips and rosé nights together. Just pop in one of the repellent cartridges, power it on, then kick back as it repels mosquitoes up to 20 feet away. The best part? The battery is rechargeable, so you can carry this around with you everywhere.
John Frieda's Secret Weapon Touch Up Creme — finding a leave-in you can use on fully dried hair is surprisingly tricky, but this one is designed specifically for that! It's super easy to spread through and softens hair enough to re-style without looking overly wet. Oh, and you'll also get a touch of moisture thanks to the lightweight avocado oil.
A kid-size Away carry-on in playful colorways that'll have you thinking, "do they make these in adult sizes?!" This compact yet spacious carry-on has a super durable outer shell and tons of room on the inside for some extra outfits, which you'll be eternally grateful you packed when they inevitably spill their entire cup of apple juice at some point.
Lush's Rose Jam Perfume and Shower Gel that even the most passionate rose haters will be tempted by. This is NOT your typical rose scent — it pairs the classic floral fragrance with sweet vanilla and a zesty touch of lemon. The result? An unexpectedly sweet, playful rose fragrance that's about to become your new "jam." Start with the shower gel (bonus: your entire bathroom will smell like it after you use it), then layer the perfume and prepare for the onslaught of "what are you wearing?!" coming your way.
Conair's The Knot Dr. smoothing dryer brush — a multitasking miracle that combines a paddle-style hairbrush with a blow-dryer. It has two heat settings (and a "cool" option), and you can even snap the brush head off and use it as a normal blow-dryer before you get to styling.
A shapewear bodysuit that proves you don't have to give up comfort if you like to wear shapewear. The smoothing, seamless design is made with a super soft mix of nylon and spandex that's so comfy, you won't daydream about taking it off at the end of the day. It also has built-in support and removable cups at the bust, so you can wave goodbye to that way-too-thick-for-summer bra you always regret wearing.
A Taylor Swift–inspired JavaSok — the perfect companion for your Caffeinated Era. The thermal insulation helps to keep your drink colder for longer, which will come in handy when you forget about it while scouring the JavaSok's pattern for clues about when "Getaway Car (Taylor's Version)" will finally bless our ears.
A pack of delightfully chewy Blobs sour gummies that are equal parts tart and sweet, and will take you back to your childhood days of devouring an entire box of Scooby Doo fruit snacks (those matte blue ones were ELITE). The sour pack comes with flavors like strawberry-yuzu, watermelon-lychee, and black raspberry-cherry — so this is basically a "Greatest Fruits of All Time" convention.
Poems of Parenting — this will instantly cheer you up on those days when parenthood feels comically difficult. It's filled with cheeky poems by Loryn Brantz that tackle everything from bedtime struggles to the joys of baby snuggles.
The Roc Vitamin C Eye Balm, a TikTok-viral product that definitely lives up to the hype. This super convenient serum-in-a-stick is designed to be swiped directly on the under-eye to provide an instant cooling effect. The vitamin C can help brighten the appearance of dark circles over time, while the inclusion of peptides helps to firm and tighten.
