My favorite handheld fan is less than $13 right on Amazon right now
Deal of the Day
Around the size of a small body spray (think Sol de Janeiro), the Jisulife handheld fan has saved me from coming home dripping in sweat many times. It has two plastic blades at the top (they're hidden when it's closed) which aren't sharp at all and run at three speeds (I find that all of them are extremely cooling). One of its best features is the inclusion of USB and USB-C ports, which I use to charge the fan itself and also power up my phone or other compatible small electronics on the go .Plus, it has a flashlight on one end that comes in handy when I'm standing at my front door searching for my keys sitting at the bottom of my bag at night. It also comes with a wrist lanyard you can loop through the top if you want to keep your hand free while holding it. Keep in mind not all fan colors are equally discounted.
Since talking my co-workers' ears off about how much I love this fan, I've been able to convince NBC Select's senior manager of community engagement Rosalie Sparaco to get one, too. 'Commuting while seven months pregnant in what seems like a weekly New York City heatwave is no joke,' she says. 'This fan has been great while I'm waiting for the train, walking to the office and even when I get into work and I'm just so sweaty. I love that I can use it handheld but also easily prop it up on my desk.'

1 Hotel Seattle hotel review
Location Located in a residential complex in the shadows of the skyscrapers of Seattle's business district that hosts brands such as Amazon and Google, 1Hotel provides easy access to the main landmarks of the city. It's just a 15-minute walk to the Space Needle and to the iconic Pike Place Market, where you will find the world's first Starbucks, a must-see site for coffee lovers. The hotel is also just a 20-minute cab ride to Seattle's bustling cruise terminal, making it well-situated for passengers before or after a trip. The vibe The hotel feels fresh and new, having only opened in May after replacing and renovating the Denny Park Hotel. It is one of 14 sustainability-focused locations around the world for the 1Hotel group, yet there is a clear local approach. Guests are welcomed into the lobby by a living wall of vegetation in the shape of Washington state's Mount Rainier and a '1' monument using 575 driftwood pieces sourced from private beaches around the Puget Sound by local artist Rebecca Stigora. Nature is brought to life around the hotel with 1,142 plants across the site. Earthy tones on the walls and greenery that surround the soft white furnishings throughout the public spaces give the feel of a safari lodge, where it is easy to relax before venturing out to the urban jungle of Seattle life. Service Staff are keen to impress. The reception desk is staffed around the clock, which is useful if your flight is delayed. Check-in is quick, and a concierge will help take your bags to the room and staff are knowledgeable about the local area. Some logistics may still need ironing out – our late arrival meant the housekeeping service had understandably only finished their clean at 11pm, and we had to request a member of the guest services team to show us how to set up the sofa bed for our kids. Bed and bath The hotel has 153 rooms, including 45 suites, spread across 11 floors. Interiors feature teak wood floors, tapestry wall hangings, and floor-to-ceiling windows with breathtaking city views, including of the Space Needle. Soft cotton bedding, 55-inch TVs, and bathrobes make things feel homely, while sustainable touches such as chalkboards instead of notepads and bamboo-based tissue paper underscore the eco-conscious ethos. Bathrooms are stocked with Bamford products and include both walk-in rain showers and separate tubs. A wooden coin also encourages guests to participate in the '1 Less Thing' program, letting them donate unwanted clothes to local charity Mary's Place. Food and drink Meals are not included in the base rate, but packages can include dining credits. Breakfast at Drift bar is worth the extra money, especially for the Tropical Blue Colada smoothie – a vibrant mix of pineapple, coconut and blue spirulina. Dinner at La Loba offers an inventive fusion of Catalan tapas with Asian influences. Highlights include smoked candy salmon with truffle cream cheese and oversized crispy potato bravas. The menu caters to dietary needs with gluten-free and vegan options such as avocado salad and pesto-seasoned cauliflower. Facilities There is a gym where you can take part in morning yoga sessions and recharge on Peloton bikes and treadmills. The hotel occasionally hosts events such as leather crafting and flower making. There is no swimming pool, but you can relax in the Drift bar or in the many nature-inspired seating areas indoors and on the roof terrace. You can even borrow one of the hotel's electric Audi Q6 e-trons to test drive and transport you around the city during your stay. Accessibility The hotel is fully accessible, with street-level entry, automatic doors, elevators, braille signage, and service-animal-friendly policies. Rooms with adapted features are available. Pet policy Dogs are welcome for no extra fee and furry friends get their own in-room bed and bowls. Dogs must be kept on a lead in public areas and aren't allowed in the restaurant or gym. Check in/check out? Check in from 4pm; Check out by 12pm. Family-friendly? Children are welcome. There are connecting rooms and others with sofa beds. There is also a hotel package that includes a $100 breakfast credit, a milk and cookies welcome treat and a complimentary in-room movie. At a glance: Best thing: Watching the sun set and rise over the historic sites of Seattle Perfect for: Travellers pre- or post-cruise or those looking for a short break in the city. Not right for: Less adventurous travellers Instagram from: The under-stairs chair swing Address: 2125 Terry Ave, Seattle, WA 98121, USA Phone: +1 206-264-8111 Website:

Silk pillowcases have long been known as a solid option for protecting your hair at night, and Blissy's Silk Pillowcase is one of the best. Not only does it have benefits for your hair, but it's also a great option for hot sleepers and those struggling with sensitive skin. Right now, you can get the king-sized silk pillow case for 43% off at Amazon. Want more from NBC Select? Sign up for our newsletter, The Selection, and shop smarter. Deal of the Day: Blissy's silk pillowcase is one of our favorites for protecting your hair while sleeping. It's made from 100% pure mulberry silk, which stops your pillow from tugging and pulling at your hair, according to the brand. The silk material is also temperature-regulating, so the pillowcase will stay cool throughout the night — no need to flip to the other side. Since the fabric is so smooth and non-irritating, it's also great for anyone with sensitive skin, and the 20 color options make it a cute accent to any bedspread. NBC Select updates editor Mili Godio says this pillowcase has made her (very) sensitive skin 'feel much less red and irritated in the morning,' and that it also helps her to sleep a lot better at night, 'thanks to the soft and cooling fabric.' 'Plus, its breathability is great when the months turn warmer, especially since I'm a hot sleeper,' she says. Why trust NBC Select?

My favorite handheld fan is less than $13 right on Amazon right now
There are very few products I test or buy that end up on my 'obsessed' list. At NBC Select, we try out a lot of products from Amazon, whether it's a stain remover, toiletry bag or a whitening toothpaste but they don't always end up being products we love. One product I'd personally file under 'best thing I've ever bought' is the Jisulife Handheld fan. As someone who is almost always hot, especially during daily commutes or errands, this fan consistently comes to the rescue during heat waves, beach trips and more. Deal of the Day Around the size of a small body spray (think Sol de Janeiro), the Jisulife handheld fan has saved me from coming home dripping in sweat many times. It has two plastic blades at the top (they're hidden when it's closed) which aren't sharp at all and run at three speeds (I find that all of them are extremely cooling). One of its best features is the inclusion of USB and USB-C ports, which I use to charge the fan itself and also power up my phone or other compatible small electronics on the go .Plus, it has a flashlight on one end that comes in handy when I'm standing at my front door searching for my keys sitting at the bottom of my bag at night. It also comes with a wrist lanyard you can loop through the top if you want to keep your hand free while holding it. Keep in mind not all fan colors are equally discounted. Since talking my co-workers' ears off about how much I love this fan, I've been able to convince NBC Select's senior manager of community engagement Rosalie Sparaco to get one, too. 'Commuting while seven months pregnant in what seems like a weekly New York City heatwave is no joke,' she says.
