Promising review: "I struggle with finding a foundation that's not orange. Someone recommended I try a Korean product, and this started going viral around the same time. I lucked into a perfect color match on the first try, but I've learned there are sample packs if you aren't sure about the color. The coverage is incredible. It was very lightweight, not heavy at all. It did settle into my under-eye wrinkles without primer, so if you're older, that's something to keep in mind. Overall, beautiful and long-lasting. This will be my go-to foundation from now on." —AJ BondGet it from Amazon for $15 (originally $25; available in 40 shades).

Promising review: "I've tried dozens of serums, but the TirTir serum stands out for its lightweight feel and intense hydration. My skin drinks it up without feeling sticky, and within days I noticed a smoother texture and a natural glow — like the 'glass skin' effect K-beauty is known for. It layers beautifully under makeup and never pills. Plus, it's gentle enough for my sensitive skin. This one's a holy grail product and a must-have in my skincare routine.

A Shark AI Ultra Voice Control Robot Vacuum for 50% off — an affordable but powerful machine with a self-emptying base, HEPA filtration, and 360-degree home mapping tech so it *won't* repeatedly run into the leg of your coffee table or get stuck under your couch. What's included: Two side brushes, XL HEPA filter, Shark AI Robot, and self-emptying review: "I am so thankful for this little robot. It saves me SO MUCH TIME. I normally vacuum and sweep DAILY, sometimes twice a day. I have three massive dogs that shed like wild, and there is not a day in my life when little dust balls of dog fur are not lining my hallway and gathering in corners of my living room. I have loved and used my Shark brand pet vacuum for over eight years now, and knew that at least with Shark, I would get great customer service and a good warranty on the robot. When I run this thing, I don't have to sweep. It doesn't do as great on my area rug, but my floors and hallways are always clear of dog hair, which is absolutely the #1 reason I purchased. If you are purchasing to combat dog hair as I did, just be aware that you will have to clean it out after every cleaning session. I also try to free the brush underneath of hair often, as the longer dog hair just wraps around it. Still, the three minutes it takes me to empty and clean the brush is wonderful compared to 45 minutes of sweeping and vacuuming every day." —TaylorGet it from Amazon for $297.99 (originally $599.99). Or a Shark Pet Cordless Vacuum Cleaner for 50% off (that's a tie for the lowest price offered) some reviewers say is better than Dyson 👀 , and at a fraction of the cost!!! It also runs for up to 40 minutes (and has a fast charge⚡️), so you can tackle your whole home in one go. PS: It transforms into a hand vac and also comes with a Pet Multi-Tool for pet hair and a Crevice Tool for hard-to-reach review: "Very, very pleased. We have both carpet and hardwood floors — it works great on both. It's lightweight too, so easy to go up and down stairs with it, and it doesn't hurt your back. It was easy to put together, also. Highly recommend!" — it from Amazon for $149.99 (originally $299.99). Good American's Always Fits Good Legs Straight Jean for 30% off because most people fluctuate a few pounds and/or find themselves between sizes, but these manage to fit four at once!!!

Reviewers rave about the clever ruching that accentuates your curves and enjoy using this as a versatile warm weather staple. Shop an extra 60% off sale styles at review: "This suit is great! Besides a cute pattern, it's a very beautiful fit. The ruching is not overwhelming, like some over suits. And, it stays UP. It has moderate back coverage.

Promising review: "I have used another brand of glycolic pads before and saw these on an ad. My curiosity was stirred, so I started reading reviews and took the chance! They are on subscription now — I use these pads everyday and love them. They leave your skin feeling so clean without any sticky feel. 50 pads per container and are the perfect size for your entire face. They don't have a scent, but smell clean without any sticky chemical smell. Great price point, too." —LifeonBerwickGet it from Amazon for $18.95 (originally $30). A gauze smock dress for 30% off that will make you look like you're just about to go frolic in a mountain meadow (even if you're actually about to go fill out some Excel spreadsheets). Shop up to 50% off everything at Everlane for their Fourth of July review: "This dress is darling and checks all the boxes. It's relaxed in the bodice, but not huge. Perfect for adding a tee underneath. The skirt is lined in the same material as the dress which gives it a luxe, floaty feel. Recommend!" —NeonCityLightzGet it from Everlane for $97 (originally $138; available in women's sizes XXS–XXL and three colors). A Samsonite Freeform 28-Inch Checked Suitcase for 47% off (that's the lowest recorded price💰) if you've been dragging around a bag with multiple busted wheels for way too long. Promising review: "After more than 2 weeks in four European countries, I recommend these suitcases without hesitation! We took two small white ones and dragged them over cobblestones, threw them into luggage racks with other people's bags on trains, and roughed them up. They held up beautifully! The best part is that they are still white! I spent a couple of minutes wiping them down with a wet paper towel and used a Magic Eraser in a couple of spots, but they look brand new! Amazing!" —KimGet it from Amazon for $99 (originally $189; three colors on sale). A bottle of hair-building fibers for 24% off (putting it at its lowest price ever) that's being regarded as a "miracle" by many satisfied reviewers because of how well it fills in bald spots and adds volume to thinning hair. These tiny fibers are made with follicle-mimicking molecules that grab onto your hair strands and make it look like a witch cast a hair growth spell on you. This works best in thinning ares on the crown and partline, and if you're in between two shades, the brand recommends going with the darker option. To use, just sprinkle over the desired area and pat it in — you can also hit it with some hairspray for an extra secure hold. It'll wash out with your next shampoo. Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Daniel Boan says about it: "I personally am OBSESSED with this stuff for covering the bald spot my thirties have so graciously gifted me. It is so simple to sprinkle into any thinning areas (yes, even by yourself! Though I typically hold up a hand mirror behind my head while looking in another mirror to get a better idea of where to aim the container). I've never had any issues with it fading or sweating off, though I do typically do a super light spritz of hairspray just in case."Promising reviews: "I have thinning hair due to a number of medical issues (thyroid, chemo), with the majority of bald/thin spots at the crown. The color match was perfect and it's very easy to apply to the bare spots. It sprinkles on easily and covers wonderfully. I pat it into place and finish with hairspray and I'm good to go." —mozart8Get it from Amazon for $17.44 (originally $22.95; available in four sizes and a two-pack, and in 14 colors). A 7-in-1 inflatable water slide for 60% off so you can transform your backyard into a water park for the summer. The kiddos can soak in the shallow pool, splash around in the bounce house, climb a wall, shoot (inflatable) basketballs, play with water guns, "surf", and slide — I have a feeling it's gonna be their favorite summer yet! Promising review: "Our 4, 3, and 1 year old absolutely love it! They love playing in the water and love the slides. The shallow water area is perfect for our 1 year old to be included in the fun." —DerekGet it from Walmart for $395.93 (originally $999.99) A robotic pool vacuum for 25% off (the first sale price ever recorded!) if you've got a whole lot of BBQs on the cal and you don't want guests catching you slacking with an algae-covered pool. Of course, you also don't want to have to break your back keeping it crystal clear — so that's what this lil' guy is for. Promising review: "I only used this machine once, but I was amazed at how it worked! I was like a little kid watching how it cleaned my above-ground pool. Not to mention, I was in my house doing other things while it was being cleaned! Wish I knew this was an option before struggling with the OLD way of cleaning it. Just used the hose attached to my filter... ughhh never enough suction to clean. If you are looking for something different, this BEAST is for you! PS: the battery charge hardly went down after it was done." —DeanaGet it from Amazon for $134.99 (originally $179.99). IT Cosmetics CC+ Nude Glow Lightweight Foundation + Glow Serum with SPF 40 for 40% off — a combination product ideal for those who just want a smidge of color correcting tint and some good ol' SPF. FYI: The makeup sale goes through this Saturday, the fifth, but if you're seeing this after, you can still shop up to 40% off jumbo-size up to 40% off at Ulta for their big sale review: "I have been on the hunt for a good foundation for a couple of years, ever since the formula in my last foundation changed. I'm only 33 and was sick and tired of these foundations settling into my pores and forehead lines. I felt like most foundations were aging me 10 years and highlighting my flaws. Not this stuff! This foundation gives me an awesome glow, goes on so smoothly (I use a sponge), and doesn't cake up." —Ulta reviewerGet it from Ulta for $28.20 (originally $47; available in 22 shades). An asymmetrical high-rise midi skirt for 58% off with an abstract print on sleek woven satin that hugs your curves in the most delicate way. Can you say "chic"? 😍 Use the code SPARKS.

This model is compact and portable, so you won't have to reconfigure your countertop to accommodate it. Promising review: "I bought this for use in our RV while spending two months in very hot south Texas. This is the first basket-type air fryer I've owned, and I cooked almost every dinner (for two people) the entire trip in it! It was easy to use and easy to clean." —Greg&DebGet it from Amazon for $69.94+ (typically $100; available with or without the front window).

Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Chelsea Stuart says about it: "I bought this a few Prime Days ago and boy, I'm happy I did. The voice command (which works like normal Alexa so you can set timers, ask about the weather, etc.) is a dope feature, no doubt, but it also has a lot of other things going for it! The 4K ultra HD is SO crisp — it's legit cinematic — and there's just no beating having the ability to watch more than 1 million movies and TV episodes across all of your favorite streaming platforms. As the reviewer mentions below, the setup is also exceptionally easy. You plug it in, log in to your Prime account, and all of your apps are ready and waiting!"Promising review: "We decided to 'treat' ourselves to a new TV — FINALLY! This TV did not disappoint! We use the Fire Stick, and getting a TV with all those functions minus the Fire Stick is just a huge plus! We're sold on Amazon brand TVs as well as the Echo Dot, etc. Great picture, pricing, and functionality!" —Trish it from Amazon for $289.99+ (originally $479.99+; available in four sizes and with or without a soundbar and 4-year protection plan). Or an Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K (the newest model) for 50% off that you can simply plug into your existing TV to stream all the shows, movies, and music you want at the push of a button. Promising review: "I was not sure if I should upgrade my old Fire Stick with a new one. When it went on sale for 1/2 price, I took the chance. I was not sure if it would really make a difference in picture quality. When I got it, the installation was soooo easy (even for me), it did most of the work by itself. Just when the homepage for Prime came up, I could immediately tell the difference!!! The color was so bright, and the picture was super sharp. My family can have as many as 4 or 5 gadgets working at any time, but there was no slowdown or long loading. In short, it is worth getting a new, upgraded Fire Stick. I really am happy with this addition to my system." —JochenGet it from Amazon for $24.99 (originally $49.99). A pair of *super* comfy, breathable overalls for 33% off that reviewers say are the most comfortable things they've ever worn.

Promising review: "I'm 5'3' 180 pounds and bought a large (shown in the first pic above!). It fits perfectly, can wear long or fold to ankle length. Enough room for a T-shirt or tank underneath. Super soft and comfortable. The material feels like cotton. Not too thin, can't see through it. But cool enough to wear with a tank in warm weather!" —ACGet it from Amazon for $19.99+ (originally $29.98; available in women's sizes XS–XXL and 18 colors; select colors on sale). A Shark FlexBreeze Pro Mist Fan for 20% off (that's the first-ever recorded discount!) if you loveeee walking through the misters at Disney and want to bring the experience home. This bb — which can be configured as a pedestal or tabletop fan — lowers temperatures by up to 12 degrees, and you can even pop some ice cubes in the tank for extra chill. Promising review: "We love this fan. Not only can you spray water through an attachment that goes to the fan, but you can charge the fan itself, disconnect it from the stand, set it up on a table, and it will run for about four hours with no electricity required. It will also run for about four hours before having to be recharged. You won't regret this purchase." —Nan LindstromGet it from Amazon for $199.99 (originally $249.99). A gold floor lamp for 68% off with a decorative S-shaped twist and plenty of ~posh~ vibes. Just what your living room needs! Promising reviews: "Much prettier in real life than in the picture. The hardest part of putting it together was getting the lampshade on evenly. Will be ordering a second one for another corner of the family room." —Sara"Great lamp, beautiful gold!! If putting it in your living room, do a bright daylight light bulb." —DomoniqueGet it from Wayfair for $94.99 (originally $299) Some comfy flip flops for 30% off that you'll be slipping on just about anytime you step outside, whether you're heading to a body of water or not! These have a super cushiony yoga foam sole that provides plenty of arch support. Promising review: "I've been dealing with plantar fasciitis for the better part of a year now and I bought these sandals with the hope that I could wear flip flops on my trip to Hawaii. Not only did these provide great arch support but they are quite literally the most comfortable shoes/sandals I've ever worn! I was even able to wear them walking through the airports virtually pain free. I was totally blown away! I am so happy with these sandals I will definitely be buying more in different styles." —Rachel PippinGet them from Amazon for $13.99 (originally $19.99; available in women's sizes 5–11 and 17 colors). A 62-quart wheeled Coleman cooler for 20% off (tied for its lowest price ever) made to keep ice cold for up to five days. It'll be handy for a beach day but absolutely incredible for your family's annual camping trip. Promising review: "Took ours camping, had us and three kids opening and closing it all week — ice still frozen by the end of the trip. Brought the cooler home, didn't get to unpack it until two days after the trip, opened it up and found a beer — Coors with the mountains still blue. So, for a total of six days outside in the heat (high was 89), it was still ice cold. Best money I've ever spent on a cooler. The lid doesn't stick, and the wheels make it so easy to tote around. We filled ours up to the top, fit eight Philly's, a pack of hot dogs, a pack of sausages, water, frozen water bottles, a total of 32 beers, chocolate bars (that didn't melt), 12 breakfast burritos, a pack of ham, and a pack of bologna. Compact, but it holds a lot. 10 out of 10." —Amazon CustomerGet it from Amazon for $59.99 (originally $74.99).

These block out sunlight, help keep your room cooler in the summer (bless), and come in a designer-y gradient that'll take the aesthetic of your space up a notch. Promising review: "Wow! These really do black out! These have changed my life!! I am sleeping a lot better. I should've gotten a pair of these a long time ago! Besides their functionality, they are beautiful. Vibrant colors and smooth material. Awesome purchase. Great price too with the sale, but I'd pay regular price for these! Worth every penny! Wow." —Tami Gibson Get it from Amazon for $21.51+ (originally $51.89+; available in 33 colors and 15 sizes). A lift-top coffee table with hidden storage that's 46% off — which is the lowest price it ever drops to — so your living room can look tidy without trying too hard.

Shop Nordstrom's entire Fourth of July sale review: "This top is perfect for warm weather. The crinkle gauze is the perfect weight and very soft. The top is thick enough to NOT be sheer. No ironing needed if immediately removed from the dryer. Caslon tops are usually generously cut, at least for me. The green is exactly as pictured. I love it so much I am getting the rest of the colors!" —FishslayerGet it from Nordstrom for $35.70+ (originally $59.50; available in women's sizes XXS–XXL and six colors). A Craftsman Versastack Mechanics Tool Set for 50% off (a tie for the lowest price!) so you never have to run to The Home Depot mid DIY because you're missing a specific doohickey you, quite honestly, didn't know existed before it was brought to your attention in a YouTube tutorial.

Tender meats, perfect stocks... It's freaking magical. My family is tired of me talking about it. I was obsessed there for a few months.

27 Outdoor Toys That Toddlers Actually Love
A Strider convertible bike so your toddler can get their balance down before throwing pedaling into the mix, because learning to ride shouldn't require tears (yours or theirs). It starts as a balance bike and can be upgraded later with a pedal kit when they're ready to level up. I have two toddlers — one's nearly two and the other is three and a half — and they are obsessed with these bikes. Every day, they're outside riding them, and I love how confident they seem because they get to use their feet to move. Several toddlers in our neighborhood have them too, and my kids have basically formed a tiny Strider bike gang. They all ride together, and it's sooooo cute. I'm never too worried, since there's no pedaling to lose control over, and when the time comes, I'm sure they'll take to pedaling easily because they're already so comfortable on these bikes. And yes, they wear my kids out. After 30 minutes to an hour, they're totally exhausted, which is ideal because the last thing I want at the end of a long day is a wound-up toddler. Win-win. Get the orange bike from Amazon for $229.99 (you can get the pedal conversion kit here; there are also blue and fuchsia options). And don't forget to get a toddler helmet! I'm a big fan of the spiky dragon ones. A splash pad that's basically a backyard sprinkler, baby water park, and sneaky educational tool all in one. It has the alphabet printed on the play mat and a bunch of adorable animals, too, so your toddler can splash, shriek, and maybe even shout out a few letters while they play. A colorful tree swing for creating Hallmark movie–level memories. It's waterproof AND has a weight capacity of 900 pounds, so the whole gang can comfortably and safely use it together. Promising review: "We've had this swing hanging in our tree out back for two years now. Our kids, and their friends, LOVE it. I love that it's large enough to accommodate a number of kids/people, and that it's held up so well over time. Would totally recommend." —KrystalGet it from Amazon for $51.47. A high-output bubble machine that cranks out 18,000+ per minute (yes, really), so you can officially stop blowing them yourself.

Promising review: "I recently purchased this bubble machine and it has exceeded all my expectations! One of the standout features is its dual power options. You can use either batteries, which is perfect for outdoor fun, or plug it in for endless bubbles without worrying about running out of power. The bubbles are plentiful and consistent, creating a magical atmosphere for my kids. It's also incredibly easy to use and set up. We've used it for parties, playdates, and even just a fun afternoon in the backyard. Highly recommend this bubble machine for anyone looking to add some extra joy to their events!" —MarissaGet it from Amazon for $26.95+ (available in five colors) An inflatable dinosaur water play center for transforming your backyard into a miniature waterpark.

This is incredible, and my son (20 months) absolutely loves it! There's so much to keep us busy, from the ball toss to the misting slide. I even laid on it to sunbathe, and it was comfortable, lol. Really excited to use this for the summer and have people over to enjoy it with us!! If you're on the fence, let this be your sign to buy! ☀️" —Ashley EdbergGet it from Amazon for $50.43.

Promising review: "Cannot believe the great deal we got. We got this for our 2-year-old's birthday and both boys LOVED it. There was so much included with it — the pretend lantern and cook stove that LIGHT UP, and the food toys, and fake watch my 4-year-old wouldn't take off for a day. My run-on sentence could go on and on. They love it. They were entertained for hours, so I love it too." —BiancaGet it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in three styles). A wooden sandbox with built-in benches that flip down into a lid when playtime's over, so the sand stays clean and dry (and doesn't become a neighborhood litter box).

Promising review: "My daughter plays in this sandbox every day. 10/10. I close it when it rains and open it as soon as it stops raining to dry the sand out and prevent mold inside the box. As long as you take care of the sandbox, it should last." —Nina Get it from Amazon for $129.99 (available in five wood finishes).

This car has lasted for years, from 18 months to 6-year-old kids' daily wear and abuse. It still works as it did the day we put it together. I love these cars, they are worth every penny you pay for them. Definitely will and have recommended this to everyone." —mfeatonjrGet it from Amazon for $64.99 (also available in another style) A foldable play set if you want a literal playground in your backyard.
