It pretty much sucks the irritant out from under your skin so you can live an itch-free life. A ceiling fan carbon air filter to catch dust, pollen, pet dander, and smoke.

A pre-swim hair cream since it'll help protect your hair from dryness and chlorine damage. Enriched with aloe, this cream can create a barrier to prevent your hair from absorbing chlorine and salt. No green hair and no frizz! A hot tub cleaner scientifically engineered to remove all the gunk hiding in the plumbing. So all the dirt, grime, oil, and sweat will go bye-bye in exchange for improved water clarity and filtration.

It'll always provide the right amount of water, making sure your greens stay green AND your water bill stays low.

And because they're hypoallergenic, latex-free, and pain-free to take off, they're great for the whole family. A portable electric mosquito repellent — this DEET-free and scent-free shield works to keep mosquitoes up to 15 feet away. Each repellent mat lasts up to four hours, and they change color to let you know it's time to replace them. So bring this out to your backyard and have some worry-free fun! A sand-removal powder bag because you love the beach, in theory, but in practice? You hate getting sand all over your body.

This spacious tent offers UPF 50+ protection, meaning the material can block 98% of harmful UV rays! And a foldable baby tent for trips to the beach or backyard! Covered in a breathable mesh, this playpen allows you to keep an eye on your little one while also providing them some shelter from UV rays since it comes with a UPF 50+ canopy. A laptop shade because it'll not only give you privacy while you work by the crowded pool but it'll also help protect your laptop from the heat of the sun. A pack of towel bands so you don't have to curse the winds for carrying your towel away from the chair you claimed at the pool. These durable latex bands won't rust, break, or lose strength over time like towel clips. A refillable roll-on sponge sunscreen applicator that's easy enough for your kids to use (with supervision, of course)! Just fill it with your sunscreen of choice, and let the fun in the sun begin! Plus? There'll be less mess on your hands. A set of heel caps because it's stiletto weather but you shouldn't have to risk sinking into dirt, gravel, and grass just to look sharp.

A long-reaching lotion applicator — moisturize your back without trying (and failing) to force your arms to bend in ways they simply don't. You can also use this to apply self-tanner or sunscreen on your back. No more sunburns in places you normally can't reach!
