Your Dog Will Love These 27 Products And You Probably Will Too
Because your furry bestie really isn't that different from you.
1. A flavored tooth-cleaning chew toy if your dog has stinky breath and you want to trick them into taking care of their own teeth so you don't have to brush them yourself.
Promising review:"My dog has been chewing on the Hartz dog bones that are bacon flavored for the last five years and has perfect teeth. Stopped her from chewing on my shoes when she was younger, too. Still keeps her busy at 7 years old. :) " — Glucas1211
Get it from Chewy for $3.47+ (available in four sizes; colors vary and are chosen at random).
2. A pint of doggy ice cream if you're looking to spoil your dog. Choose from five different flavors (like maple bacon, peanut butter, and sprinkles), add water, freeze it, and your pup has a yummy dessert ready to go.
Promising reviews:"This puppy ice cream smells great. I bought the maple bacon flavor for my 4-month Chihuahua, and she loves it. The size of the products is good for small dogs. I give her one scoop because she is tiny. This ice cream is perfect for the hot summer days." — Neryna Cuadrado
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in four flavors).
3. A pack of EcoKind's Himalayan yak cheese chews your pup will absolutely love chewing on. Chewing on things can help engage a dog's brain and these last foreeeeever so the engagement is practically never-ending!
amazon.com
Promising reviews:"We were skeptical at first because the dogs weren't quite sure about them, but we can't let ourselves be caught without them now. Our 9-year-old male Australian Cattle Dog likes them occasionally, but our two under-a-year females love them, fight over them, and even fall asleep chewing on them!
We especially like these smaller sized pieces because the longer ones we got before seemed to lose favor with the dogs after a while, but these they can finish and not leave for me to find in strange places." — Danny Scarbro
"I have a very easily bored, mischief-prone Australian shepherd-poodle mix, and these are a godsend. They don't stink, she loves them, they last far longer than other edible chew toys, and she remains interested in them all the way to the end. I was so happy to find these on Subscribe & Save at a good price." — Philly Transplant
Get a four pack from Amazon for $24.95 (also available in other pack sizes).
4. A paw soother stick to keep your dog's hands and feet comfortable while the two of you are out and about. This is great for helping with dryness and minor scrapes, whether you're hiking a trail, doing some urban exploring, or just hangin' on the couch.
Promising reviews:"My Maltipoo's paws were starting to feel dry and rough, especially after long walks, but this balm worked wonders. The texture is smooth and easy to apply, absorbing quickly without leaving a greasy residue. I noticed a difference within a few days — her paws became noticeably softer and more moisturized. Plus, it's made with natural ingredients, so I feel confident using it regularly. I highly recommend this balm for anyone looking to protect and heal their dog's paws from dryness, cracks, or rough surfaces. It's a must-have for every pet owner." — Gizem Aktan
"Immediately helped alleviate my Siberian Husky's dry and cracked foot pads. I love this product so much that it's now part of my auto-subscribe! Thank you for helping her!!" — Stan
Get it from Amazon for $5.95+ (available in four sizes).
5. A set of carpeted pet stairs because some of the shorter doggies may have trouble getting up and down off of the couch or bed and that cannot be stood for!!
Chewy
Promising review:"I bought this step for one of our cats who can no longer jump up on the bed due to age, and it works like a charm. He took to it right away and is one happy kitty! These steps are well constructed and sturdy." — Shaunda
Get it from Chewy for $54.99+ (available in two sizes and two colors).
6. A flea, tick, and mosquito spray for protecting your furry besties from dangerous parasites that can lead to Lyme disease and heartworm.
Promising review:"I rarely do reviews, however, I have been using this spray for about a month now and had to come back and write an honest review. The ticks have been really bad this time of year at my property, and I go there often with my dogs. I would be there for five minutes and have several ticks already crawling on me and the dogs. I bought this spray with very low expectations, but it honestly works SO well. I spray it on my shoes and ankles and all over the dogs. 99% of the time, I won't find any ticks on me or them! I would definitely say reapply if you will be somewhere with ticks for more than an hour. I have had a couple of ticks here and there but that is drastically better compared to finding 10+ on me. I will be buying many more bottles to get through the hot months!" — Amanda
Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in three sizes and four scents).
7. An engaging jumbler ball if your dog has seemingly endless energy (but you don't). This will surely tire the lil' bud out and give you a second to just ~chill~.
Promising review:"Toy is an entertaining, nice squeaker. Our German shepherd plays with this for hours. The toy is challenging to pick up and carry. All of which helps our high energy German shepherd burn off energy." — Tracy
Get it from Chewy for $14.99+ (originally $15.99+; available in two sizes).
8. A machine washable Custom Catch personalized dog mat so your pooch always has a comfy place to cuddle up, even if they're not allowed on the couch (which they should be, tbh).
Promising review:"I bought this for my daughter's dog because they have laminate floors and her dog likes to lay on the ground... but also pees a lot on his bed, so washing a bulky dog bed practically every day would be a lot. He absolutely loves this mat. He drags it around, and tries to fold it, and sleeps on it every night. My daughter is actually the one who asked me to write this review to let everyone know that she washes this thing five times a week and it is still perfect with not a stitch out of place. She even asked for another one for Christmas this year as a back up. I chose the blue color in a large with his name printed on it. He's a Shih-Tzu so there is plenty of space for him to lay and play." — Jennie211
Get it from Amazon for $17.89+ (available in three sizes).
9. A practically indestructible Kong chew toy you can fill with your dog's favorite treat so they can get all their energy out and enjoy a lil' snack at the same time.
Chewy
Promising review:"Being on the market like forever just might be the proof dog owners need to actually buy this toy. It comes in all dog sizes and has a lot of potential. For my rescue dog, it doesn't need to be stuffed with treats or peanut butter (too fattening). She loves it for the erratic bouncing action. A regular ball bores the heck out of her. Plus, she's exercising more muscle groups, trying to grab a hold of it. And the Kong is about as indestructible as they come. Buy it once and wait 'til the end of days before it wears out." — Stephen
Get it from Chewy for $7.99+ (originally, $8.99, available in six sizes).
10. An ear treatment for dogs who suffer from fungal infections, redness, inflammation, and bacterial overgrowth in their ears. Hydrocortisone helps ease all types of uncomfortable skin issues!
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"My dog has had chronic ear infections for years now. Every other month or so, she'd get an infection, and $200 later, we'd have meds from the vet who confirmed what we already knew. I finally decided to give an unprescribed treatment a try, and it worked AMAZINGLY. Followed the instructions for a week, and her ear is completely healed! Much easier to pay $20 instead of $200 when you get the same results! I highly recommend." — Fromal16
Get it from Amazon for $23.79+ (available in three sizes).
11. A very helpful Furbo dog camera so you can keep an eye on your older pal when you're not home. It also has a 360-degree wide-angle view, treat tossing capabilities, color night vision, two-way audio, and barking alerts.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:" We travel a lot and this has been such a great tool to be able to see my dog and give her treats while we are gone. Our dog loves hearing the squeaky sound it makes because she knows what is coming her way. The Mother Hubbard small reward treats fit perfectly and my dog loves them. Highly recommend this product!" — BurgessColorado
Get it from Amazon for $169.
12. An anxiety-reducing Snuggle Puppy stuffed toy with a heating pad and a lifelike battery-operated heartbeat sound if your pooch gets anxious traveling, during fireworks, or if there is a thunderstorm. Seriously, there is nothing sadder than seeing an old dog have a panic attack, so you really need this!
Promising review:"I have a 16 year old pug recently getting over a bout of pneumonia. The past 4 weeks have been so hard he just wants to be held by me. No one's talks about it but a senior dog is a lot like a puppy or even more demanding to take care of. I bought this had it arrive over night, it was a easy set up I just pulled the battery plug and set it next to him. I clicked the heartbeat on and my old man was fine for most of the day as I could see on my furbo it relived his stress significantly which is a relief because before today I would have to come home from work and call for help if I saw him start to yell on the furbo to be picked up today I felt like I could do what I needed to thank goodness." — CDub
Get it from Amazon for $38.95+ (available in six colors).
13. A refillable dog treat dispenser toy you can fill with homemade snacks or premade Pupsicle Pops in the warmer months because this will keep your doggo occupied while you sit through your Zoom meetings.
Promising review:"Our Lab mix has always suffered from anxiety, fear, aggression with strangers, and breaks in routine. We ordered this product after seeing several ads on our social media. He LOVES it, and so do we! Super easy to clean and refill, long-lasting, and the treat refills don't smell bad like other dog treats! Our sweet boy recently began to lose mobility in his rear end and gets super upset when he is unable to get around independently; this gives him the comfort he needs to just relax and lie down while enjoying a treat!" — Elizabeth
Get it from Chewy for $19.99+ (available in three sizes).
14. A nonstick Dash dog treat maker that can make eight bone-shaped treats at a time because your dog deserves all the yummy snacks made with tons of love! They could also totally use this to make human treats, too!
www.amazon.com
Promising reviews:"Got this for my friend as her dog has a ton of allergies and she can't giver her dog many treats. She was so excited to use this! Loves it!" — Meghan Taylor
" My dogs absolutely loved these treats...they loved the flavors! It comes with several recipes. The treat maker is pretty easy to use, overall. I did try to spoon the dough in, but had better results when I very carefully pressed the dough in... be careful it gets very hot! After the treats come out, you have to clean up the edges to make them look perfect. Great price. I would it buy as a gift for my dog-loving family and friends!" — HeatherLee
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in two sizes and colors).
15. An interactive Outward Hound dog puzzle toy you can hide treats or kibble in to help keep your pooch occupied on busy days when you're working from home and can't give them the attention they so clearly deserve. Plus, it's important to keep older dogs' minds sharp!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"When I give my dog treats using this, she's started playing with it before eating. Before, she was more focused on getting the treats, but now she seems to be satisfied after playing with it. Since she's a senior dog, it's great to give her activities that stimulate her brain." — Evergreen
Get it from Amazon for $10.95.
16. A carrier backpack that can hold dogs weighing up to 25 pounds for when you wanna bring your furry best friend along for any late-in-life hiking or backpacking adventures. Plus, it makes for an awesome view for any hikers behind you.
amazon.com
Promising review:"We have a senior dog who likes to go on walks with us, but she isn't able to do long walks by herself. She sits comfortably in the Kurgo backpack. She also likes being able to see out of it easily, since half of it opens up. It's also extra great that she is clipped in, so she doesn't fall out." — Betina To
Get it from Amazon for $144.99 (available in four colors).
17. A backseat extender bridge so your dog doesn't go flying into the front or get caught in between the seat cracks when you slam on the brakes. It also allows for more room for them to sprawl out and ~relax~.
amazon.com
18. And a car seat for your furry friend to make sure they stay safe during any long car rides or trips to the airport. And the seatbelt is adjustable for a comfortable fit!
amazon.com
Promising review:"This is the car seat I use for my dogs and I absolutely love it. Is durable, well made and also pretty. I feel at peace when driving knowing my dogs and secured in place and safe from running into traffic or around the car loose. It has some padding and the material inside is very soft." — Heidi
Get it from Amazon for $49.59+ (available in two colors).
19. A package of Greenies Pill Pocket treats so giving your dog their meds doesn't have to be a traumatic experience for either of you. I give these to my Chiweenie, and she loves them!
Chewy
A lot of reviewers compliment these pill pockets for picky dogs and cats that haven't responded as well to other brands.
Promising review:"Two of my dogs require medication on a daily basis. There is no way I can manually try to force these meds. I tried another reputable brand of pill pockets, and they worked for a couple of days until my dogs realized that there were pills in them, so I decided to try Greenies Pill Pockets. First of all, the consistency of the pocket was easy to form over the pill. Then came the test of flavor. My dogs love breakfast and dinnertime now that they get the Greenie treat. They don't even blink. I love these!" — Cisco
Get it from Chewy for $9.98+ (originally $10.99+, available in four flavors, four quantities, and two capsule sizes).
20. An anxiety jacket designed for any dog who gets a little anxious when traveling (like I do). It applies gentle, comforting pressure, acting like a cozy hug for your furry friend to keep them calm if they get freaked out by planes, car rides, or the general mayhem that is reality. (Please let me know where I can get one for humans.)
amazon.com
Promising review:"My mom adopted a senior dog who had been at the rescue for two years, she's a sweetheart, but very nervous, and slightly possessive of her food or my mom when the other dog is around. I got this for her just to see if it would help, mainly to make the new dog feel comfortable and decrease the anxiety (like a weighted blanket does for humans). It works amazing. We put it on and you could literally see her relax instantly." — Melissa Lemos
Get it from Amazon for $39.95+ (available in seven sizes and two colors).
21. A pair of UV dog goggles to protect your pup's eyes while they're sticking their head out the window or joining you in a sunbathing session.
Promising review:"My dog loves to hang his head out of the window when we go driving, but I'm always concerned about his eyes when he does this. Shih-Tzus have notorious dry eyes and other eye problems, so I wanted to keep him protected. It took our dog a while to get used to wearing these, and he's still not a total fan, but they do the job!" — D. Joslyn
Get it from Amazon for $8.07+ (available in eight colors).
22. An adjustable collar with a bowtie because your furry pal wants to dress like the distinguished adult that they are and so they should!!
amazon.com, Amazon
Promising reviews:"Love this collar set! The clip was a bit heavy at first when we first put it on our new baby but she seemed to get used to it pretty quick. We opted to not put the bow on for now but will later on at some point. I love that we have that option. Once she grows out of this size we will definitely buy her the next size up." — Mommakel
"Very well-made, absolutely beautiful! Does not look cheap at all! I got the large size for my senior pit mix and the band is very thick!" — Corby_Ann
Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in seven sizes and 25 colors).
23. A two-pack of rubber collapsible dog bowls so your dog doesn't get dehydrated if you go on a hike or spend a sunny day at the beach. The carabiner also makes it easy to clip onto a backpack or leash!
amazon.com
Promising review:"Great product for the price. Premium-quality bowl. Holds up to everyday use. We always have it clipped onto our dogs leash and also keep one in the car. Both bowls come with a matching color clip. Collapses down with little to no effort but stands up great for food and water. Would recommend!" — Kyle
Get it from Amazon for $4.99+ (available in two sizes and 14 color combinations).
24. A four-pack of pet bandanas, to make sure your fur grandma looks their best. And if you decide to take them to a dog park while you're on holiday, they'll be super easy to spot while they're playing.
amazon.com, amazon.com
Promising review:"Beautiful! Very nice quality and pretty sturdy. When I opened the package I dropped one on the floor and my girl started chewing at it. Not sure how long she had it before I noticed, tugged it away, and it was still intact and not frayed or ripped! Obviously don't purposely let them chew on it, but I was impressed because she can pop the seam of a new toy in seconds." — Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in two sizes and two color packs).
26. A hip health and joint-function supplement fortified with glucosamine, chondroitin, and MSM if your doggy has arthritis and needs help with a little pain relief.
Chewy
Promising review:"My almost 6-year-old longhaired dachshund has had mild arthritis since she was a baby. I noticed she was having difficulty ambulating. She could no longer go upstairs with me, nor could she step up/off small curbs while walking. I knew this product worked in humans and thought I would try it with my pup. Wow! In one week, she's climbing stairs, jumping on/off curbs, and able to walk further. I give her two soft chews, and they work beautifully. Very affordable at Chewy. I will continue to keep my baby on this product." — Minnie
Get it from Chewy for $24.97+ (originally $29.99+ available in two styles and four quantities).
27. And finally, a really bright rope leash with reflective threading, so if ya'll are out walking at night, drivers and cyclists won't be able to miss you! And the grip is super cushy and comfortable, so even if your dog is tugging, your hand won't get rope burn.
amazon.com
Promising review: Love it! My senior dog used to always pull and tug so much but with this leash walking her is so much more easy! It's durable, well made, and when your dog pulls it gently pulls back it doesn't snap. Don't hesitate and buy." — Vanessa Lin
Get it from Amazon for $7.89+ (available in five sizes and 14 colors).

12 Genius Products To Help Hot Sleepers Get Better Rest
As a longtime hot sleeper, I understand firsthand how difficult it is to get quality z's when it seems as though your body has a built-in sauna. Plus, in summer, sleep is bound to be even more sweaty and less comfortable. But by making a few changes to your sleeping setup, you can be on your way to a cooler snooze session in no time. Some of these tweaks include swapping out heavier sheets and comforters for more lightweight, breathable options and enlisting the help of a powerful tower fan to keep air circulating around your bedroom. You can find these hot sleeper solutions and more on our list below, which contains reviewer-approved items that may help you achieve a more comfortable (and cooler) night's sleep. A mattress with enhanced cooling technology A better night's sleep starts with a reliable mattress. The Serta iSeries Hybrid provides plenty of support in addition to being outfitted with a special cooling cover called MaxCold to help regulate your body temp whole you review: "After more time searching and reviewing mattresses than I thought I would do, we finally settled on this mattress. And weeks into use, I can say that we love this mattress. It's amazing what better sleep can do to one's quality of life. If this mattress is at the top of your list, get it here direct from Serta." —CA_JimGet it from Serta for $1,599.99+ (available in sizes twin–California king and four firmness levels). A cooling mattress topper reviewers say also helps with back pain Solve two problems in one with this cooling mattress topper that, according to reviews, both keeps hot sleepers cool through the night and "eliminated back pain" for one shopper. The topper comes in nine colors and sizes twin to California king. The embossed topper has a three-zone design to regulate temperature and provide support. The deep pocket stretches up to 21 review: "We purchased a new bed and really like the support and pretty much everything else. After a week of actually sleeping on it we realized how hot it was and kept waking us up during the night. I started looking at different toppers but was hesitant because of how much we had already spent on the mattress. On one of these nights, I sat up grabbed my phone and got on Amazon. I spent about 30 minutes reviewing comments and prices before purchasing this one. It has been 3 nights of awesome sleep! My husband and I both have said, it's a game changer. We still have the support of the memory foam but not the more waking up sweating, it's soft and the price point is perfect!" —Me llamoGet it from Amazon for $34.99+. A cooling blanket This double-sided blanket uses Japanese Arc-Chill technology to absorb body heat to keep sleepers cool throughout the night. It comes in several colors, including beige, blue, dark gray, green and pink and from sizes 51 inches by 67 inches to 90 inches by 108 inches. Promising review: "My girlfriend is a werewolf, and she radiates heat like a nuclear reactor. She sleeps with a very small cheap anime throw blanket, the central a/c at 60, and a fan full blast that could make a tornado change direction - and yet she is still hot. Then I got her this blanket and today I woke up with the fan at only half power and I could actually feel my face, she sleeps so soundly and comfortably and doesn't heat up as much. The silky side retains a pretty constant cool feeling throughout the night and just feels really great. Overall, If you're a hot sleeper, this is the one. Highly recommend." —Emil NovoaGet it from Amazon for $24.83+. A set of cooling eucalyptus sheets Sijo's hypoallergenic eucalyptus sheets are perfect for hot sleepers as they're ultra-soft and cooling. The set includes one fitted sheet, two pillowcases and the option to add a flat sheet. They come in 13 colors and in sizes twin to California review: "This is the only sheet/duvet set I've ever found that ACTUALLY cools you down. I usually sleep so hot, but with this set I wake up not sweaty for the first time ever." —Dylan them from Sijo for $95+. A set of bamboo pajamas This bamboo pajama set is moisture-wicking and breathable for a cool night's sleep. The set features a satin V neckline and satin hems on the boxer shorts, which have an elastic waistband for ultimate comfort. It comes in a huge range of colors, including gray, pink, purple, blue, black and red and in women's sizes S–4X. Promising review: "I can't say enough about these PJs! I've told a lot of ppl about them and I've purchased several different styles for myself! These pjs are super soft, cooling, and lightweight. I run hot in the night and these pjs have helped with the night sweats and uncomfortable stickiness." —Bonny BGet them from Amazon for $33.99+. A lightweight down alternative comforter Brooklinen offers its top-rated down comforter in a variety of weights, including a summer-friendly lightweight option. The lightweight choice features down cluster fill with a cotton sateen shell that is antimicrobial and hypoallergenic. It comes in three sizes, from twin/twin XL to king/California review: "This comforter is like a cloud. Never have I ever been more excited to get into bed. I bought it because I run hot when I sleep and I have no regrets. I was worried that my 20 lb weighted blanket and 80 lb couch potato dog would depress the filling, but it survived the test and is still as wondrously fluffy as when I first unpacked it." —Andrea it from Brooklinen for $143.65+ (originally $169+). An oscillating fan to keep your room cool The Pelonis 40-inch oscillating tower fan saves me every summer and its narrow design makes it perfect for small spaces. It has three pre-set modes: natural, which mimics the less-predictable rhythm of an outdoor breeze; sleep, which starts off strong and slows down gradually as you drift off; and normal, which is, well, normal. It also has three intensity settings (low, middle, and high), along with an 'eco' energy-saving setting. It also comes with a battery-operated remote control (just remember to buy your own batteries, since they aren't included). Promising review: "Using this fan in my bedroom and it has been GREAT! Much quieter than old style floor fan and the ECO and sleep modes work very well. There's all types of bells and whistles on this fan, but so far each feature has been great. My sleep quality has definitely improved since the air circulation is more evenly distributed and I don't have to constantly adjust the fan. The fan is not loud; just a low enough hum. But, I've always liked the white noise of a fan. I'm also dealing with the occasional hot flashes, so this fan is plus. I absolutely won't be able to go back to a window or circle oscillation fan. I'm a tower fan convert." —ALAGet it from Amazon for $63.60+ (available in two colors). A set of reviewer-beloved cooling sheets under $60 in all sizes Many sheet sets under $60 are microfiber, but if you prefer the cooling effect of bamboo sheets, we found an affordable option in this Shilucheng sheet set, which is made with a rayon blend derived from bamboo. They come in a ton of colors and sizes full to California king. When picking your mattress size, you can also choose between a four- or six-piece set, which includes two extra pillowcases in addition to the standard two, a flat sheet and a fitted sheet. The rayon and polyester blend is heat- and moisture-absorbing to leave you cool and dry, and hot sleepers have raved about the sheets' cooling properties in the them from Amazon for $36.99+. A BedJet cooling and warming system It's rare to find a sleeping accessory that benefits both hot and cold sleepers, but this BedJet climate control system does just that. It uses funneled ventilation to automatically adjust the temperature in your bed for each hour of the night. You can still use your own sheets other bedding that you already have or use the BedJet sheets that are specifically designed to distribute more air from the funnel. You can also get on-demand cooling or heating thanks to the included remote review: "I get extremely hot when I sleep to the point of sweating and it's gotten to be almost a daily thing. For the last few years, I had been sleeping on top of my comforter with only a small blanket because I would get too hot sleeping under a comforter. When even that began to feel too hot during the summer, I got the bed jet to cool my bed and now I can comfortably sleep under a comforter and still remain cool. One of the best purchases I have ever made." —Janet ClarkGet it from Amazon for $552. A cooling memory foam pillow Tempur-Pedic's Tempur-Cloud Breeze dual cooling pillow has a gel layer on both sides to promote cool sleeping and is made of pressure-relieving materials that provide comfort for your neck, head and shoulders. It comes in a queen or king review: "LOVE this pillow! I get sooo hot at night and have had to always flip my pillows several times a night! This pillow keeps me cool ALL night! I'm mostly a stomach and side sleeper and it is soft enough to do that; but it also is firm enough when I'm on my back reading or watching TV! Highly recommend!!!" —Paul GandyGet it from Amazon for $92.99+. A tumbler to keep at your bedside If you often wake up in the middle of the night feeling parched, you may want to add an insulated tumbler to your nightstand. This stylish 40-ounce bottle comes with a straw lid to prevent spills and keeps your beverages cold all night. It comes in so many colors and patterns, ranging from florals to checkerboards to tie dye and so much review: "Just as pretty as the trending brand's style. I got the sea glass sage color and it is the perfect muted color. Keeps my iced drinks super cold all day (and all night—it's the perfect bedside table cup!). It fits in my car's cup holders too! It checks all my boxes and is a major win for the price!" —KelseyGet it from Amazon for $29.98+. A pair of blackout curtains Keep out the sun's heat while you sleep with these thermal insulated blackout curtains. They come in nine colors and 11 sizes up to 52 inches by 95 review: "We are having a heat wave, and these do a great job of blocking out the heat from the sun. They block out most of the light. I will probably buy more of these for other windows that I am using different coverings on. We are staying cool, and saving money on the electric bill!" —Amazon customerGet them from Amazon for $22.99+.

Introducing Skincare+ on Amazon: Shop derm-approved brands in one place
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. I've been knee-deep in skincare for years now: testing beauty products, digging into ingredient lists like I'm studying for finals and talking with dermatologists any chance I get. It started as curiosity and turned into a full-on obsession. I've tried the buzzy stuff, the clinical stuff and everything in between. And after all that, I can confidently say: finding the right skincare routine takes work. So, when I stumbled across Amazon's new Skincare+ feature, I was honestly impressed. It actually makes things easier — and smarter — for anyone trying to figure out what works for their face. Let me break it down: Skincare+ is kind of like Amazon's skincare brainchild. It's part quiz, part personalized shop and part dermatologist-approved product lineup. You answer a few quick questions about your skin: the breakdown of your skin type, what you're dealing with (acne, dryness, sensitivity, whatever) and what you want from your routine. Then, Amazon gives you customized suggestions that aren't just based on what's trending, but what *actually* makes sense for your skin. Advertisement It's a small thing, but honestly? That quiz is gold. I've spent hours over the years scrolling through skincare Reddit, beauty blogs, YouTube videos and ingredient masterclasses trying to figure out what to use next. This takes, like, two minutes and doesn't feel like a gimmick. It points you toward products from brands that derms actually recommend (think: CeraVe, La Roche-Posay, Bioderma and more). Not influencer picks with sparkly packaging. Actual solid skincare. Here's a breakdown of what Skincare+ recommended for my combination, sensitive and fair skin — focusing on reducing pore size and upping hydration levels: I've tried most of these products and I can attest that these recommendations are certainly expert-driven, tested and effective for my skin concerns. I've raved about the medicube Pore Pads (seriously, it's a Korean beauty essential you need), and have used the CeraVe cleanser more times than I can count. Plus, you can't beat a good exfoliant in your routine, especially when brands Anua and The Ordinary are tossed into the mix. And let's talk about that Derma Store. This part of the Skincare+ setup is super curated, full of products that dermatologists actually back — not only the drugstore basics (though those are great), but also science-forward picks from brands like ISDIN, RoC and The Ordinary. You can tell it's built for people who want results without needing to decode a 15-step routine or get a degree in cosmetic chemistry. Some of the questions the Skincare+ quiz asked, straight from the Amazon app. Amazon Better yet, you'll also have access to Amazon One Medical healthcare professionals. Consider it your convenient FaceTime call with your derm. What I really appreciate as someone who's tried so many products is how much time this whole setup saves. I used to spend days comparing formulas and reading every single review like my life depended on it. With Skincare+, it feels like you've got your own mini skin consultant on standby, but without the pressure or the price tag of an in-person visit. One thing I've learned from dermatologists is that 'personalized' isn't just a buzzword; it actually matters. Your skin's needs change based on your environment, your age, even your stress levels. What's cool about this Amazon tool is that it doesn't just lump you into 'dry' or 'oily' skin categories. It asks real questions, gives targeted recommendations and helps you build a routine that actually makes sense. It's not trying to sell you ten serums you'll never use. Now, full transparency: I still double-check everything. I patch test. I read the fine print on ingredients. But nine times out of ten, the stuff Skincare+ recommends matches what I'd pick out after a full-on chat with a derm. And if you're someone who's just starting your skincare journey? This is an amazing launchpad. You won't waste your money or your face. There's also peace of mind in knowing the products are legit. Amazon's had a bit of a rep in the past for third-party sellers, but the Skincare+ and Derma Store setup directs you to official listings. So you're way less likely to accidentally buy some sketchy knockoff of your favorite SPF. For me, this whole Skincare+ thing is the kind of innovation I wish had existed when I was first starting out. It doesn't replace dermatologists or your own research, but it bridges the gap for people who want smarter skincare without the hassle. And even if you are a seasoned beauty nerd, it still saves time and helps you discover new stuff without the stress. At the end of the day, skincare should feel like self-care — not a second job. Skincare+ makes it feel a little easier, a little more personalized and a lot more doable. Whether you're dealing with breakouts, sensitivity, aging, or just overwhelmed by options, this tool gets it. And for me? That's the kind of beauty innovation that actually sticks.

This Air Purifier Is the Cheapest on the Market, You Can Stack Discounts to Get It Nearly Free on Amazon
Living in a city where air pollution seems unavoidable can feel discouraging, but there's something you can do to protect your health right at home: Investing in an air purifier is a simple way to ensure you breathe cleaner air, especially in your bedroom where you spend nearly a third of your life. You don't have to spend $500 on a Dyson to get quality air cleaning – there are more affordable and practical options too. One of these is the Mooka air purifier (B-D02L), available now on Amazon at a record low price of about $39 after stacking discounts (instant discount + promo code), down from $79. See at Amazon The Mooka B-D02L is designed to encompass large rooms, and covers up to 1076 square feet. Since it has a very effective filtration mechanism, it will circulate the air in a 215-square-foot room six times every hour, and perform one full air exchange every hour in larger rooms of up to 1076 square feet. That makes it ideal for a household with pets or children for instance. The H13 True HEPA filter is the heart of this purifier and it is one of the highest efficiencies in particle capture. It traps pollutants down to 0.3 microns, dust (such as pet hair, dust, pollen, smoke, dander) and odors. The system includes a pre-filter and an activated carbon filter that will work together to catch bigger particles and eradicate stinky odors. What's extremely important is that it's also very quiet: Its new brushless motor keeps sound at just 20 decibels which is barely audible. That means you can leave it on while doing work or sleeping without being disturbed. And it draws very little power, so you won't notice your electricity bill. If security is your priority, the purifier also features a child lock to prevent accidental modification by curious kids. Controls on this air purifier are easy to operate: You can have four timer settings (1, 2, 4, or 8 hours) and adjust fan speed via Sleep, Low, Medium, and High. With these controls, you have the power to determine the amount of air you'd like cleaned without wasting energy. There is even a soft night light that will eliminate night stumbling which can be turned off when you want the total blackness of a totally dark room. If you are looking for a budget-friendly solution to clean the air you and your family breathe, this air purifier is a perfect choice. Don't miss that opportunity on Amazon. See at Amazon
