Promising review: "I'm not one to write reviews; however, this small cooler/lunch box deserves one. This small cooler is totally worth paying the extra money. I filled it up with sushi rolls for a concert and it stayed very cold for over 10 hours. The cold packs I placed inside were still frozen after all that time! It is also roomy, a nice soft material and very stylish, and the shoulder strap option makes it more functional. I love it!" —Leticia Hampton Price: $56.25 (originally $100; other colors available at a lesser discount) You can also get 25% off a Stanley IceFlow straw tumbler! And shop all the Stanley deals here. Promising review: "I used to make fun of people for using these Stanley cups; I always thought they were overpriced and overhyped. But I purchased this for my little sister who is in nursing school, and she takes this thing with her everywhere!!! All she does is rave about how amazing it is! So I bought one as well, and they really are amazing products. Made super well, they keep ice in them for hours and hours! Super comfortable to hold in your hand, not too heavy or bulky. Easy to clean and seem to be super durable. I've dropped mine I don't even know how many times now, and not a single mark! They also don't leak easy at all. Unless you're holding it completely upside down, even then it doesn't leak fast. Super happy!" —Jon & Katie Severs Price: $33.75 (originally $45; deal available on select colors) and shop all the Stanley deals here Promising review: "Get these ASAP. I bought the cream pair, fell in love with them, and bought two more colors! They are worth the money. Quality is great, I have a very small butt, and the cinch waist gives it shape. I’m 35 and over the short shorts. These are long enough but not obnoxiously long. They’re soft, sturdy, and don’t have a ton of stretch, but I like it that way." —Allie Price: $39.99 (originally $64.95; available in women's sizes 24–34) — and shop all the Levi's deals here The product is designed for all hair types, but most 5-star reviews are coming from reviewers with straight, wavy, or type 3 curls. Promising review: "Hands down the best leave-in conditioner (hair detangle spray) I’ve ever used! I’m completely obsessed! I literally cannot get out of the shower unless I know I have this with me because it’s the only thing that lets me brush my hair without pain or frustration. It works instantly and makes my hair smooth and manageable every single time. Yes, the bottle spray handle can get a little funky, but I honestly don’t even care because the product results are that good. Once my hair dries, it looks and feels amazing. I’ve tried so many products over the years, and nothing comes close to this. Absolute holy-grail, I’ll never be without it again! 💆♀️✨" —Bren Promising review: "Bought this set for a trip to Cancun. It held up so good! You can see it's barely even scuffed at all. Zipper held up great; the inside isn't ripped at all like my last set. It's all still in great condition. I absolutely hate when reviews for luggage are written before taking it anywhere because that is when they fail...after the trip, on the flight. All of these pictures are from after my trip. I'm super happy with this set." —Tina Price: $103.99+ (originally $159; available in 15 other colors at various discounts) and see more Coolife deals here. Promising review: "Stop looking for other nipple covers. I can't tell you how many nipple covers I've wasted money on for them to be terrible. These actually stick, are seamless, and are easy to clean!" —CK Price: $18.79 (originally $28.50; available in five shades and three sizes). Promising review: "Genius and just as smooth as the videos show. Hard to believe but looks and work just as advertised. Very convenient, very sturdy. Does a good job keeping things cold, and folds up nicely so I can store in my truck without taking up much space. Glad we bought it." —DK Price: $149.99 (originally $199.99; available in three colors) It's also dual voltage, which is great for traveling! I use this crimper myself, and I love how easy it is to use! Promising review: "This is the third waver I've bought in the past six months or so. The first one did a nice job on my hair, but I felt like it was damaging — I could see frizz that isn't usually there. The second one left my hair looking crimped, like I'd stepped out of the eighties. Thankfully, I found this one! It leaves my hair looking shiny and healthy, with just the perfect amount of wave! I thought I'd gotten it right with this one, but it was confirmed when the very first time I used it, not one, but two other women asked me if my hair just naturally makes these perfect waves--I wish! When I told them I'd used a waver, they wanted to know EXACTLY which one, and I had to look it up on Amazon — they both wrote it down. I can get looser waves by holding my hair in the waver for less time and more defined waves by keeping it in a few seconds longer. Either way, the waves will stay until I wash or wet my hair again. I'm really happy with this purchase." —LylaStylus Price: $45.95 (originally $79.99) — and shop all the Wavytalk deals here Promising review: "Magical. As a college student, I get a lot of use out of headphones while walking around campus and while studying, and these are [exceptionally] good. I like studying around others but I don’t necessarily like hearing a lot of noise, in noise canceling mode and with music on at a low/moderate volume, I can hear NOTHING! It’s so trippy but so nice. The touch controls are great for changing volume or songs since I don’t need to take my phone out and inevitably get distracted. Great battery life as well, considering I use them for probably 3-5 hours a day. They are expensive, but if you wait for them to go on sale (like I did), it will be even more worth it. However, I still would have paid full price for them and been satisfied, but if you’re on a budget, waiting for a sale might be smarter, but they are a worthy investment since I hope they will last at least 3-4 years." —Troy Price: $248 (originally $399.99; available in four colors) and shop all of the Sony deals here Promising review: "I use it for gaming, watching movies, everything, the size is about as big as you can go on a desk monitor without having to turn your head from side to side to view both edges. The stand was a bit finicky to install till i figured out it has to snap into place before the 2 screws can be used to tighten it down, though with the SNAP into place, I'm not sure the screws are needed, like a redundant safety backup. The color is clear and bright, great saturation, the black is the blackest, most solid black I've ever seen on a monitor, and I have been using Samsung monitors for almost 20 years. IMHO, it is a GREAT monitor to buy at twice its selling price.... the fact that I got it on sale almost makes me feel like I did something wrong..... GREAT all rounder if you need a BIG screen" —Datrowl Price: $99.99 (originally $149.99; also available in three other sizes) — and shop all the Samsung deals here Promising review: "I call them my Fokas. Fake Hokas. They are absolutely comfortable. I used them in my Japan Trip which is easily 20k + steps each day. Get these sneakers!!! You will not regret it." —Silvia Promising review: "Won't regret this purchase! These are my fave shoes. I use them practically daily. I don't get foot fatigue like I do with my other footwear. I have plantar fasciitis and my arch is supported well. This is easily my best purchase find. The reviews were super helpful. I will say that the shoe isn’t as supportive around the foot, but I’ll play around with the laces." —Leialoha Promising review: "My foot surgeon suggested Hoka's after On Cloud did nothing for my sesamoiditis. I found these alternates, and this is the best thing I have purchased. I work in a warehouse on my feet all day and these are life savers. I am buying another pair in another color." —Tiffany Price: $47.99 (originally $59.99; available in women's sizes 6–11 and seven colors). Promising review: "I’ve struggled with thigh chafing all my life. I’m now 45. I just went on a hot, humid 3-mile run in complete comfort with no riding up. Ordering in all colors and tossing my old running shorts!" —Cassandra Leigh Saffold Price: $14.24+ (originally $19.99; available in women's sizes XS–3XL, three lengths, tons of styles, and multi-packs) — and shop all the Baleaf deals here; these straight-leg capris are now fully in my cart. Like with all mineral sunscreens, when it comes to white cast, YMMV. Promising review: "This is the only sunscreen I’ve tried that actually works under my foundation without causing any pilling, sliding, splotching, etc like most facial sunscreens. I’ve used it outside in 100+ degree weather, and it stays put and keeps me from burning. I’ve also never noticed any breakouts or skin irritation from this cream. Yes, it costs more than other brands, but in my opinion it is 100% worth it. It’s hard to find a sunscreen that works, doesn’t cause breakouts or irritation, and doesn’t create issues with makeup. The bottom line is that this does its job well and it’s worth every penny!" —DeAnn Price: $36 (originally $45; also available in two tinted options) — and shop all the Elta MD deals here Promising review: "Glow up in a tube. My new daily skin tint. I love the natural finish. Leans dewy. The consistency is on the thin/watery side, but the coverage is surprisingly moderate for a skin tint. It nicely blurs imperfections without making you feel like you’re wearing much. No smell." —Buna Marie Price: $30.40 (originally $38; available in 14 shades) Promising review: "We put these fire sticks on all of our smart TVs. We were tired of the slowness of our smart TVs response invoking the various streaming apps. These things work great, and the response is instantaneous! I highly recommend using them instead of putting up with slow smart TVs. Plus, the remotes are consistent now for all of our TV’s and easy to use compared to the old smart TVs remotes." —Jeff W Price: $29.99 (originally $49.99) — and shop all the deals on Amazon Devices here Promising review: "If you're looking to stay organized on the go for yourself or with kids, I cannot recommend this enough! I've used packing cubes before that were poor quality. The quality of this product exceeded my expectations. The material and zippers are lightweight yet durable. Packing for my daughter and me on our last trip was a breeze with these packing cubes! Highly highly recommend!" —es86 Price: $16.98+ (typically $24.99, available in 17 colors) — and shop all of the Bagail deals here Promising review: "I had a cheap battery-operated flosser, and the batteries didn't last long at all... Then I saw this rechargeable one and it's also cordless — and it's PERFECT... It's got quality in the name Waterpik, I had one of the first ones they made, but it was bulky and not portable. I like to add mouthwash to it, and use the tiny brush pik that comes with. The water flow is adjustable. Good thing, still on first use I had to look where to turn it off but my mirror needed to be cleaned anyway. I guarantee you, using this gem 2x a day will make your Dentist love you!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Waterpik is the Cadillac of dental products. Combine with a Sonic toothbrush, and you have a Rolls-Royce!" —Jane Promising review: "Wonderful bedtime fan or anytime really. I had been looking for a quality tower fan where the display actually turned off with some sort of sleep mode, and this works perfectly for that. The power is fantastic for the price, and it's relatively quiet even on its highest setting. My favorite part of the sleep mode, however, is that it will auto-adjust the fan speed based on the temperature. Temp goes down, fan speed drops with it, goes up, it goes back up. No more waking up with a fan blasting on high, but instead I will wake up with it at least 2-3 levels lower than where I went to sleep. Makes for a much gentler wake-up. Setup is a breeze as well, just take it out of the case, clip the base plates together, and stand it up. Remote is easy to use even in the dark, no LED on it, but buttons are pronounced enough and few enough, it's pretty easy to tell which you need in the middle of the night. The fan itself also includes a storage for the remote in the back, so you won't lose it." —Alan Price: $54.98 (originally $74.99; deal available for the 36-inch white fan) — and check out all the Levoit deals here. Promising review: "From the moment I took it out of the box, I was impressed by how simple it was to set up; the instructions are easy to decipher, and every part clicks easily into place, effortlessly. Taking it apart for cleaning is just as easy — no struggling, no complicated latches, just a straightforward design. The controls are clear, the functions are powerful, and it handles everything...chopping, slicing, shredding, etc. I love that I can go from prep to cleanup in minutes, which makes cooking that much more enjoyable. This Ninja is sturdy and no worries about it moving off your counter when using; the suction cups are more than adequate. If you're looking for a reliable, easy-to-use/clean food processor, this Ninja is absolutely worth it!" —Kmac8281 Price: $99.98 (originally $129.99) — and shop all the Ninja deals here This lip oil is vegan, cruelty-free, and has no parabens, sulfates, or phthalates. Promising review: "This is the first lip oil I've ever used. Usually I avoid anything with oil because I have very sensitive and generally oilier skin, but I wanted to give this a try because I wanted something sheer and pretty for a natural makeup look. Probably the best purchase I've ever made!!! It's super sheer and looks fine on its own without any other makeup. The smell is delicious, and while the gloss dries and fades after about an hour or two without eating, the color stays all day! I did have to reapply after eating, but not after drinking water! I just wish it was bigger, it's a teeny bottle. Would definitely buy again!!" —Debby Gold Get it from Amazon for $9.60 (originally $15; available in 13 shades and in sets, plus a jumbo size). Promising review: "I’ve tried a few dry shampoos, from the spray in a bottle to powder. And I’d have to say this one has been my favorite. My very first time using it, I didn’t know how much to put and ended up coating my hair by A LOT. It left my hair feeling very dry and straw-like. I almost returned and got a refund but decided to give it another chance. A LITTLE GOES A LONG WAY. Trust me. You only need a few dabs on your head and that’s it. You can see the extra volume almost instantly. This stuff works sooo well that I wake up on my third unwashed hair day and it looks better than the second day when I used the dry shampoo. And let’s not forget to mention how convenient and compact the whole thing is. It’s so nice to just pat it on your head with no mess." —Thuy Get it from Amazon for $11.70 (originally $18) Promising review: "I love this shoe rack, I can organize my shoes & boots and pick a pair with ease. No more crawling around the closet floor trying to find a matching pair." —Awful, sinks in the center. Price: $115.98+ (originally $189.98+; available in seven sizes and four colors) — and shop all the SpaceAid deals here Promising review: "Worth every penny. The Dyson V11 Origin Cordless Vacuum is the BEST vacuum I've ever used and I would highly recommend it to anyone. The suction power, battery life, ease of maneuvering, and user friendly design really is set apart from all other brands, including other plug-in vacuums or shop vacs. I should have bought this vacuum a long time ago. It is actually enjoyable to use, because it is so efficient throughout the entire house or car: hardwood, tile, rugs, carpet, stairs, around corners and furniture, tight crevices, blinds, window sills, lamp shades, couches, beds, dusting furniture or countertops... honestly it's the only device I need now." —David B. Price: $469.99 (originally $629.99, typically $558.88 at Amazon) — and shop all the Dyson deals here Promising review: "Who need Dyson? What a great deal! Usually, I do not get excited about vacuum cleaners. However, for this one I make an exception. Very high quality. Very low price. From tip to bottom, this is fine piece of engineering and aesthetically pleasing design. The vacuum reeks of quality throughout. It cleans extremely well while keeping the noise down. For a vacuum cleaner, it is pretty darn quiet in my opinion. The suction is powerful and it picks up everything thrown in its path with satisfaction. Because of the powerful suction, I especially like the feature that control the suction. It is placed very conveniently so that it can quickly be adjusted for different situations. On this vacuum cleaner, this feature is needed because it is so powerful." —Frank Chi Price: $149.99+ (originally $199.99) — and shop all the Shark deals here Visible LED devices only treat pimples, and results vary depending on the person: read more about how to use them at the American Academy of Dermatology. Promising review: "I’ve tried a couple of LED masks before, but this one feels totally different. I love that I can just lie in bed, wear it, and still scroll on my phone — no need to hold anything or stay super still. It’s super convenient. Didn’t really see much change the first two days, but by day three, my skin looked smoother and a bit brighter. Definitely didn’t expect results that fast. And compared to other masks I’ve looked at, this one actually feels more affordable for what it offers. I’m gonna keep using it and see how it goes over the next few weeks, but so far, really liking it!" —Amazo Price: $300.14 (originally $399; click "redeem" to get the extra 14% off with brand promotion LA9IQRAU1FBJ) — and shop all the Ulike deals here Promising review: "The desk vanity is super cute and has a really smooth, high-quality feel. The design is very aesthetic and fits nicely in the space. The size is maybe on the smaller side, but for the price I still think it’s a good deal. It is pretty light and it folds small so you could definitely pack it and bring it with you for travel. It works great overall, and the 3 different lighting options are a big plus for getting the right setup. It is cordless and lasts longer than I expected it to! Really happy with this purchase from Kitsch." —cmb Price: $29.99 (originally $38) — and shop all the Kitsch deals here BuzzFeed Shopping is service journalism first: our writers and editors spend all day shopping so you don’t have to, vetting products, fact-checking brand claims, and surfacing what actually helps in real life.
