A set of Brooklinen Turkish cotton bath towels for 25% off
Promising review: "We love these towels! My husband says they changed his life. Hyperbole, but pretty true since these feel so good when you wrap yourself in one after a shower! They wash beautifully too!" —Paula B.

A quarter-zip pullover sweatshirt for up to 39% off
Promising review: "So TikTok made me buy this + seeing it over and over again on the Amazon Best Sellers tab. I finally took the plunge to buy it. I love this jacket so much. It literally is comparable to my $80 Aritzia jacket for so much cheaper! I love how soft it is on the inside! Super fuzzy and warm. I love the collar, it's stylish and I love to give it a little flip over. The zipper is quality too! I love the contrast of the black and white. I loved this jacket so much that I came back and bought it in white after buying the apricot color. I would highly recommend it to literally everyone. I bought the same size as my Aritzia jacket, which was a size medium. It fits me perfectly with an oversized look!" —Kate Dumas
Amazon
Bliss' Block Star Face Sunscreen SPF 50 for a whopping 54% off
Promising review: "I’ve had difficulties finding the right mineral and no white cast sunscreen. I finally gave this one a try, and I LOVE IT! It has a sheer finish and NO WHITE CAST (I have dark caramel skin). It doesn’t break me out. I recommend using your fingers to apply rather than a brush. It has a light lavender smell that I’m not too crazy about, but it’s okay. Overall 10/10!!!" —Khaye

A long-sleeve bodysuit for 31% off
One TikToker did the research to see this fabric blend is the same as Skims — check it out here. And btw, reviewers say the double lining in the torso is supportive, so they don't need to wear a bra.
Promising review: "Are you kidding me? This is the softest most comfortable body suit I’ve ever owned. I got so many compliments lol; everyone did think they were Skims lol, but it’s definitely worth every penny. I love and will be getting more colors!!! You need it." —Wendy L.

An affordable prescription-strength Differin retinoid gel for 31% off
Promising reviews: "After a month and a half of using this product, I don’t have a single active breakout on my face. This is the first time in over a year! My only regret is that I wish I would have found this sooner to save my skin from scarring." —Ashley L.
"This stuff actually works. I work in a spa, and I’ve tried dozens of different products that cost five times the price to try to clear up my acne-prone skin and NOTHING has worked as well as Differin gel. One of my esthetician coworkers recommended it to me, and dang if she wasn’t right. It will dry out your skin pretty badly, so make sure you have and use a good moisturizer, but my skin cleared up in less than two weeks, and I’m still amazed." —Rin Wisell
Amazon
A set of super popular bedsheets for 31% off
The set comes with one flat sheet, one fitted sheet, and up to two pillowcases depending on the size.
Promising review: "You know that feeling you get when you put clean sheets on your bed?! Well, these sheets only increase that soft and cozy feeling! I waited to write a review because I wanted to wash them a couple times and give them a really honest review. I’m very picky with sheets and these held up-I washed them when I first got them, used them, washed, used, washed, and put them on again. They have lost absolutely none of their softness or strength in quality. I also love the crisp white color! They felt cool, so important to me as I love a cool bed at night." —Mindy
Amazon
A cordless Bissell stick vacuum for 20% off
Promising review: "This vacuum is light, easy and quick to charge, easy to use, and it sucks everything up pretty close to the wall! I am 110% happy with it. I vacuum my home morning and night since I live at the beach and have several dogs, and this machine was affordable and works so well it is worth its weight in gold. It is super easy to clean it out. I vacuum 1,100 square feet in about 10 minutes. The bottom swivels so you can get between chair legs and tables easily without getting caught up. There is no cord to get caught on furniture. My bad back has no trouble with this lightweight vacuum. I also use it on throw rugs and I vacuum my beds and couches as well without having to change a thing. It comes apart to use as a smaller tool, and I haven't even used that yet because the vacuum, just the way it is, reaches under and around everything!"

Walmart
A highly-rated robot vacuum for 46% off
Promising review: "I recently purchased my first robot-vacuum, and I couldn't be happier with it. With two dogs in the house, each with different fur textures and carpets to maintain, I needed a powerful vacuum. This robot-vacuum exceeded all my expectations — it manages to clean up every speck of dirt and pet hair with ease. Its performance has been so impressive that I am seriously considering purchasing another one." —Yani

Promising review: "I recently installed this in my home, and I'm thrilled with its performance. This device has truly simplified my life while providing added security to my doorstep. Installation was a breeze — I had it up and running in minutes. The sleek design blends seamlessly with my home's exterior, and the weather-resistant construction ensures durability. The HD camera delivers crisp video quality, allowing me to see and speak to visitors from anywhere using the Ring app on my smartphone. It's incredibly convenient, especially when I'm away from home or busy inside. The motion detection feature alerts me instantly to any activity at my door, providing peace of mind whether I'm expecting a delivery or keeping an eye on things while I'm out." —Juan Santos

A three-piece luggage set for a whopping 76% off
The set comes with a 20" carry-on luggage, a 24" and a 28" checked suitcase.
Promising review: "We snagged these on a deal, and we lucked out for sure! The quality is great, the locks are practical and helpful, and the three sizes are perfect for our little family. The wheels roll very smoothly and can move directions, unlike our old set, which makes a huge difference when dragging luggage around. Great buy!" —Amanda

Lululemon
A super soft Lululemon shirt for 27% off
Promising review: "The material is so SOFT I can’t stop wearing them, so I bought them in every color. The fit is very comfortable and airy. It’s thin but maintains structure well. Love these shirts." —Leigh

A TikTok-approved, compact Levoit air purifier for 20% off
Promising review: "We retired to the Southwest US, which is just a huge dust bowl. I didn’t want to be breathing in the dust, and I absolutely hate to dust furniture. So I researched air purifiers and chose this model. In order to filter dust, it seems I needed a HEPA filter, which this purifier uses. While not washable, they are able to be vacuumed, which I do about once a week so they last longer. Overall, the price for the purifier and the filters was less for this model than others I researched. I bought the large model of this purifier for the main room of our 1200 sf Townhouse and it works really well. I only have to dust every 3-4 weeks, which suits me just fine. I think the purifier is about as loud as a white noise machine, so not very loud in my opinion. My husband, who wears hearing aids, finds it noisier than I do. I bought 2 of the smaller version of this same purifier for the 2 bedrooms. While they are just a smaller version of this machine they don’t work nearly as well. It gets dusty in those rooms within days. I wish I had purchased the larger version for those rooms too. I’ve had all 3 purifiers going 24/7 for 4 months now and the filters are nowhere near the point where they need changing, again noting that I vacuum them weekly. So all in all these purifiers have been very economical to use." —SuesZoo
Promising review: "Stop looking, buy this! I bought a higher-end unit for my office and this one for my home. Literally no difference! Buy the cheaper one!" —Keith

A 4-quart Ninja AF101 Air Fryer for 31% off
Promising review: "I spent months reading reviews and reviewing brands and features. The Ninja AF101 is absolutely perrrrfect!! Great capacity for feeding two people. Super easy to use. Love that it has the air fryer function and also reheat function. The pause button is super convenient for tossing the food. A real game changer in my kitchen, my life, and my marriage. Even my dog loves it. Meat is so tender and tasty with minimum spices and oil. I also appreciate the vent at the top to release any steam resulting from water released from meat or veggies. So far, I have air-fried steak, chicken, pork, salmon, and cauliflower. I also made arepas, and OMG — the best I ever made. Don't read anymore. Just add it to your cart right away and checkout. I need to go... time to prep my lunch." —Maria VG

A comfy T-shirt bra for up to 52% off
Promising review: "The Feathers is my absolute favorite bra Nordstrom will ever sell. I know that some people think that the lace might show through t-shirts, but honestly it never shows through under anything for me. I LOVE how deeply it plunges; it makes it very versatile to wear with any kind of tees and most camis." —KelseaC
Wayfair
A six-drawer dresser for 63% off
Promising review: "The dresser was a breeze to set up on my own, taking less time than I expected. It looks great and adds a stylish touch to my room. It's also very functional, with plenty of storage space. Highly recommend!" —Sannisshia

A DeWalt cordless drill kit for 37% off
Promising review: "We have owned other DeWalt tools, but this one helped us a lot while remodeling our home. From screwing up new siding to putting in new windows to floors. This drill has never let us down. It is very easy to change out a tip. Simply charge it up, and you get hours out of the battery. We loved it so much that we purchased some to give away as gifts. Do yourself a favor and add one to your tool collection." —Karrie
Target
A Keurig K-Mini Go for 30% off
Promising review: "Very sleek and slim design, fits well in a small space. I have had a Keurig brewer before but that one was a bigger one and does the same exact thing. So, this particular brewer is my favorite so far. It also has a “strong” button to push whenever you need a stronger coffee. I can make three cups of coffee without refilling the water holder. Very durable and functional." —jessifern

The ChomChom pet hair remover roller for 29% off
Promising review: "I have a golden retriever, and the shedding is out of control. My fabric sofa is constantly covered in hair and I finally decided to try this after reading an article about popular TikTok products. The reviews do not lie; this thing works magic!! I wish I had taken a before and after picture because the difference is noticeable. I watched the video tutorial before I tried it to ensure I was using it properly, and everything he says is true; you do really have to put your arm to work with vigorous back-and-forth movement! However, I find it's a great arm workout, and it works wonders." —Joanne Ertel
Wayfair
A set of Staub baking dishes for 63% off
The set comes with 7.5" x 6" and 10.5" x 7.5" rectangular baking dishes and two 6.5" bowls.
Promising review: "What a great deal! The bowls are absolutely the perfect size, exactly what I needed. The two casserole dishes are also perfect, in sizes that are usually difficult to find." —Rebecca W.
J.Crew
A lightweight sweater for 40% off
Promising review: "Perfect transition piece. I took it to London for a vacation and it was perfect on cool summer evenings as a top with a cami underneath." —Tazz
Amazon
A nifty shelving unit for 20% off
Promising review: "I have a bad habit of buying reusable water bottles. This one is cute, this one has this feature, this one has that. What resulted was a cluttered cabinet, a ton of water bottles falling on me every time I went to get one, and I was only using the handful right at the front. This is a great solution! It keeps the cupboard organized, and I can see what I have and quickly grab the bottle I need. As a bonus, it also creates a built-in limitation on how many water bottles I can have at any given time. Really recommend." —Miki

A hydrating Cosrx repairing essence for 40% off
Promising review: "My skin dries out severely during the winter all the time, and I have to constantly use Vaseline to keep it moisturized (normal cream doesn't work on me). Imagine my surprise when my SO tried to put snail goo on me, eww!! I resisted for weeks refusing to use this product as she constantly vouched for its abilities. After a month I finally gave in, and boy it is amazing! My hands feel more moisturized than ever for longer and it doesn't leave a disgusting greasy feel as Vaseline. Take it from a once non-believer, you have to try this. Even if it doesn't work for you, you paid a fraction of what you would've paid for any other name-brand moisturizers." —Kyoko Ozaki

A Waterpik for 40% off
Promising review: "Love it. I have a friend who recommended it to me. You think your teeth are clean, and then after using this, you realize you have enough extra food between your teeth and in your gum line to feed a small child a meal. It's gross for sure, but much better out than in. I would say it is not portable if you think you need something to travel with. I chose this type because I thought it would be more powerful than a handheld portable one. I do find it powerful and effective at cleaning my pearly whites." —Amazon Customer

A Bedsure orthopedic dog bed for up to 43% off
Promising review: "My four-legged baby is about 70 pounds and LOVES anything furry soft. This bed is that on the outside but durable enough that she can grab it with her claws and push it all around the house without a single scratch. Had it for a few months now, and it looks like the day we got it. I’ve taken the outside off many times for washing, throw in washer and dryer and it smells all fresh and goes right back on the pad (which has its own removable plastic barrier that unzips easily and protects the pad). Hope that all makes sense. Either way, I would recommend this to any dog owner." —tharris

A Nespresso VertuoPop+ coffee and espresso machine for 30% off
Promising review: "This is one of my favorite purchases I've ever made. My coffee now tastes just like going to a coffee shop. So high quality and easy to use just read the instructions. :)" —SkylerH

An HP wireless printer for 38% off
Promising review: "Bought this to print our wedding stationary and print on envelopes bc it was literally cheaper to buy a $150 printer than pay a printer to do all of that stuff for us (side note on that — weddings are a scam?) anyways, super easy to set up on Wi-Fi, the tray has those arm things you can move to accommodate different paper sizes. i printed on several sizes of envelopes with this back and front. I have not used the fax part yet bc it's not 1963, but I'm sure it's fine." —User

A 9th Generation iPad for 40% off
Promising review: "I got this for my kids, my youngest being 4. I love it so much better than other children's tablets. It has much better child safety features, easier to use, and because I have an iPhone I can also control the safety features form my phone. It’s much more durable than other children’s tablets especially if you get a children’s case. I’ve gone through three other types of tablets, and I will say it’s worth the money to get the iPad." —Brittany
Promising review: "I am currently in college and my iPad has made note taking and completing homework so much easier! I am able to read articles and highlight easily without having to print anything out. I am able to follow lectures and slideshows and take notes straight onto the slides. I can complete homework assignments on my iPad instead of finicking with the placement of text boxes and other items on my computer. It is truly just convenient and makes the little stuff a bit easier. While it may seem like a big amount of money now, I promise it is worth the investment. The screen is clear and bright, battery life is good, sound is excellent, and Touch ID never fails. I am so happy that I went ahead with this purchase. Changed my life as a college student!" —Julie Spencer
