Look, I’m not saying I hate summer... but if you’re also dreading the heat, the sweat, and the bugs (so many bugs), this is a safe space for you.

I’m a resident writer on the BuzzFeed Shopping team covering a variety of topics in a fun and mindful way, including travel, home, beauty, gift guides, and anything that’ll add just a bit of whimsy into people’s lives.

They're machine washable, and come with a reusable bag and carabiner. And for a wearable option, the brand also makes headbands with the same cooling tech!

Promising review: "Summer trip to Europe was HOT this year! I mean HOT! Florence's 104-degree F temperatures made it hard to really enjoy the days of exploring, but thanks to these amazing little towels, I avoided heat exhaustion. So thankful I bought these. I was very skeptical, but I am glad I took a chance because they absolutely made a huge difference. You will still feel hot, and unless you buy this in 'blanket size,' you will still feel the effects of the heat, but they absolutely cool you and bring a respite when it matters. Especially when things are heading to a critical place, they absolutely 100% were a lifesaver for me. Started on my neck, ended up over my head (as you can see in the pic), and I repeatedly placed on my cheeks to cool them as needed." —Cristina Viera

Promising review: "I rarely ever write product reviews, but I had to for this one. It’s awesome, and every iced coffee drinker needs one! This is the first time all summer I’ve been able to enjoy my entire iced coffee (over the course of 2+ hours on a 90-degree day) without the ice melting at all. I normally have to keep coasters all around the house for my iced coffee to save my furniture, but not with this guy! Super high-quality and does exactly what it’s supposed to. I’ll definitely be ordering another one to keep at work!" —Lexi

And if your home is not floor-space friendly, Dreo makes a tabletop version!

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes is a huge ~fan~ of this: "I have this exact tower fan, and as someone who doesn't have an AC in her bedroom (because it's a fire escape window), LET ME TELL YOU: It comes in clutch. And not only in the summer, but year-round — in the winter, this thing keeps us from burning up once our ~overzealous~ radiator kicks on (New Yorkers know). So yeah, our Dreo fan works pretty much 365 days a year and has been going strong since summer 2023. It has six speeds, though I only need to kick it up to full blast occasionally. It keeps me cool at night, it's quiet, and the night mode is super handy because it turns off the LED display quickly if you need to adjust the speed during the night. You can mute the little beeping sounds with the remote too if needed."

Promising review: "GO BUY THIS NOWWWWW!!! My room has been hot for over FIVE months now with no AC. Especially now with summer, I almost feel like I want to pass out. I’m so glad I got this. It’s been two hours now since we got it in the mail and our room has completely turned around from hot to freezing cold. I can’t believe I’m saying this. I have purchased over three fans the past few months and this one tops it all." —Inca

Get it from Amazon for $80.99+ (available in three colors and as a smart Wi-Fi version).

Promising review: "Holyyyy cow!!!! I was not expecting this to work like it did. I used it wrong the first two times (I soaked my foot in lukewarm water and didn't leave the product on long enough). This time, I put my feet in actual hot water (the hottest I could take), I dried and applied the product for seven minutes. When I was rinsing my foot with the hot water, I thought the stuff coming off my foot was the product. But nooooo it was my dead skin/callus. I was shooketh!!! Grossed out, satisfied, and my feet feel so soft. No more of the tight skin. I can't believe I was carrying all that dead skin. 🤮🤢 Definitely recommend." —Kika

Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in three scents, a two-pack, and in a bundle with a foot file and gloves). 

Promising review: "I just did 12 hours at Universal Orlando Epic Universe, and this stuff saved me. I used to use deodorant for my [chafing] when I wear a skirt, but this seemed to last longer. I also used it on my feet (I was wearing EVA foam sandals), and I most definitely would’ve gotten blisters if I hadn’t used this stuff. I’ll never do a theme park without this in my bag again." —Susie

Promising review: "I wore these in Greece in August and they saved my life!! It was so so hot and I wore these everyday under my dresses and skirts. They honestly were cooling and kept my thighs comfortable as we walked a ton. A bonus, they didn't smell after repeated wears. Highly recommend!!" —J

Get it from Thigh Society for $39 (available in women's sizes XS/S–5XL/6XL, six inseams, and 11 colors). 

Pick up a sturdy rust-resistant curtain rod while you're at it! 

Promising review: "These curtains are AMAZING! Beautiful and elegant. Hangs beautiful, very light blocking, keeps rain out of our Tiki bar, we can sit out there in the rain, and keeps the heat in on a cool fall evening when we have the fireplace on!" —Sara Bushendorf

Get it from Amazon for $18.95+ (available in eight sizes and 15 colors). 

The complete kit includes a misting line, wall clips, 20 brass mist nozzles, a 3/4-inch brass adapter, six additional replacement nozzles, and two replacement T-connector misters. Reviewers also recommend installing an inline filter to lessen sediment and calcium buildup in your misters, which helps them last longer and require less cleaning. 

Promising review: "Put these up in Arizona, and it makes the outdoors quite lovely. You can make them as long or short as you want, and just put the end piece on it to customize it how long you would like. I took a picture of my outdoor thermometer, it was 109 degrees out, and after running these for 10 minutes, it was reading under 80 degrees." —Brendan

Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in black and white and six lengths). 

The 8-in-1 chopper includes a medium and fine dicer, a regular and coarse grater, a slicer, a zester, a blade to make wavy slices, and a blade to julienne. 

Promising review: "I hate cooking so much. Chopping is a pain and takes too long. My eyes water when cutting onions. This product has made my life so much easier. I don’t dread cooking. It takes mere moments and zero tears to chop an entire onion. A pile of potatoes? Chopped in minutes. Meal prep time is considerably shorter! So easy to clean too — just give a good rinse, use the tools to take anything off that’s stuck, and pop those babies into the dishwasher to use tomorrow and the next day and the next day…" —Kayla

Rubbing alcohol-based products (like Tend Skin) can help prevent an infection of an ingrown, but can’t prevent an ingrown itself, according to Cleveland Clinic. 

This can be applied after shaving and waxing to prevent bumps and burns. It can also be applied at night independent of shaving to help clear any existing ingrown hairs and bumps.

Promising reviews: "Works extremely well on sensitive skin and delicate shave areas. Used this after years of trying different products that irritated the sensitive shave areas and did not prevent razor burn and hair bumps. Noticeable difference after first use and no more ingrown hairs or chafing since implementing into shave routine." —Kindle Customer

Get it from Amazon for $19.97+ (available in two sizes).

Promising review: “Simply the best everyday underwear! This is coming from someone who hates underwear and would go without if I didn’t care about washing my pants between uses. I’ve been wearing these every single day for the past 2+ years, and I like them so much I threw out all my other underwear (Parade: I’m looking at you). They don’t ride up or bunch. They lay flat and comfortable. They are moisture-wicking. I wear them under office clothes and to the gym, pretty much in every scenario. They are odor-resistant (gross, sorry). They stand up very well to regular washing without pilling or stretching. I have some pairs from two years ago that are almost new, except that the brand text has worn off the inside. I have yet to find a better brand for the price.” —Oli

Promising review: "These are my new favorites. They are comfortable and do not show under all my clothes. They are super soft too and hold up all day without gapping. I have been buying Victoria’s Secret underwear for many years, spending unnecessary money. I’ll repurchase these over and over again." —Joshua

Promising review: "I didn’t expect to feel this strongly about a pet hair remover… but here we are. I have a one-year-old Pomeranian who believes every piece of furniture belongs to her, and she sheds like it’s her full-time job. My couch? Constantly covered. My clothes? Forget about it. I used to rely on lint rollers, and I’m not exaggerating when I say I could go through an entire roll in one cleaning session… and STILL have hair left behind. It was frustrating, expensive, and honestly felt pointless. Then I tried this. And wow. This thing pulled up hair I didn’t even realize was embedded in the fabric. One pass and it looked like I actually cleaned. A few more passes and my couch looked brand new. No sticky sheets, no waste! Just results. And the best part? It’s completely reusable. No more constantly buying refills or throwing money away. If you have a pet that sheds even a little, just get this. I wish I had found it sooner." —Mercedes

When folded, this umbrella measures 6.9 inches and can be carried in its compact case for on-the-go use! Despite its lightweight design, it can hold up to light breezes and rains, but it's best suited for sun protection. 

Promising review: "This parasol is completely opaque, no sunlight gets through whatsoever. From that alone, you have a 5–10 degree temperature difference compared to those unfortunate non-parasol-wearing folks. It also covers your chest and shoulders, and that was a large concern for me as hats don’t cover those areas. I have tested it out already on several 100-degree-plus days in desert heat and it is amazing! I am no longer scared of parking lots and having to walk a distance to the store because of no close parking. This parasol is lightweight and easy to put in your bag. I may get another just in case!" —mandy

Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in 15 colors and packs of two).

It comes in its own carrying case with a sling handle.

Promising review: "I live in Florida and have two children in sports that I spend countless hours going to practice and games in the hot summer sun... I quickly learned to get a clip-on fan and umbrella to help stay cool, but the small sporting goods store umbrellas only ever seem to work if the sun is directly over your head, not coming from the side, or roasting your back or neck. Finding this Sport-Brella was like a gift from above. It is bigger, blocks more sun, and most importantly, can be adjusted into all kinds of angles to block the sun from whatever direction it comes from. It is also more durable than the previous sport umbrellas I've used in the past. I'm sold on this... it costs a little more, but well worth the investment if you need to spend a lot of time at games and practice." —Wolfshanze

SweatBlock is a small business that specializes in antiperspirant products. 

Psst — you should definitely "patch test" this on a small area of skin before putting it on to ensure you don't have any reaction. And btw, each box lasts two months!

Promising review: "If you have overactive sweat glands under the arms, this product works!! I've had issues with extra sweat for no reason since I was a kid. I finally saw this, read the reviews, and gave it a shot! It actually works! I use it once a week at bedtime after a shower. I have NO issues with sweat anymore under the arms. I can wear a long tee that's not black without worrying about sweat LOL. If you are having any issues with extra sweat, over amounts of sweat and need relief, this is a must." —Danielle Fallon

Glare Guard is a Pennsylvania-based small business that specializes in visors for cars and trucks. Everything's made in the US. 

Promising review: "I've spent YEARS driving blindly into the sun because I'm always too short for the vehicle's built-in visor to be 100% helpful. So I have to resort to the 'hand up to the windshield,' squinting ferociously, or trying to sit as tall in my seat as possible... all the things people do when hitting those dreaded full-on sun in the face moments while driving. How I wish I'd bought this years and years ago. It fit just fine on my visor (it offsets just a little due to the mirror, but it's no big deal). This extension is the perfect amount of light diffusion to keep driving safely while allowing for full visibility at the same time. Perfection." —Eirekitten

Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (also available in a version with a storage pouch). 

Tower 28 is an Asian woman-owned business that was founded by Amy Liu and is designed for sensitive skin. Their products are free of any sensitivity-causing ingredients, and are vegan and cruelty free.

Promising review: "I don’t even know how I stumbled upon this product or what I was researching. But I hate TikTok, so it wasn’t there. I wanted to go a little longer before writing a review, but this stuff has been amazing for my skin. For some background, my skin is extremely dry and has a lot of hyperpigmentation and some scarring from recent cystic acne. I was using a prescription cream to help, but it was a low dosage and was not doing that much for me. In the two days that I have used this, it has completely lightened up the scarring and just kind of balanced out my skin all around. It’s still dry, but it looks a lot better after only using it for two days. I wish I had a before a picture so that you can see how drastic it was and what it’s done so far." —LG

Get it from Amazon for $12+ (available in four sizes).

Promising review: "This fan works so well, keeps me cool when I’m on the beach or sitting outside in the sun. The battery life is amazing but it takes a while to charge up." —Amanda Clerk

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in three colors). 

Btw — it's also equipped with a built-in LED light. 

Promising review: "I bought two for my kids, we had a trip to Universal Studios. The parks are pretty hot with little to no breeze. When I say these bad boys lasted for all eight hours without charge, believe me. They started to chip out by the time we were leaving and we had portable chargers for them to run on to take us to the car. There are three speeds, and we used the highest and stayed cool. I bounced between having them on the stroller and in my hand. Be careful of putting them in bags where they can turn on accidentally. And make sure you fully charge if you plan on using for a long span of time." —Mumsz

Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in six colors).

Promising review: "Ok so this was absolutely wild. I am a 36H. My chest has its own zip code. Like, my boobs are massive. BUT THESE CUPS SOMEHOW HELD THEM UP AND IN PLACE FOR 8+ HOURS at Disney.... I was so skeptical and hesitant to go bra-free, but the dress I bought really called for strapless or nothing, and in 95-degree summer heat, a strapless bra sounded absolutely awful. And honestly, a strapless bra would have still shown on the back. These nipple covers not only let me go bra-free, but stayed in place despite every inch of me dripping in sweat... the adhesive was so amazing and didn't budge at all. While the overall lift was minimal to mid because of the sheer weight of each breast, the pads kept everything in place and provided enough lift to look like my breasts were surgically lifted or very perky for braless. Overall 10/10. Would recommend. It was like wearing nothing. I have never been that comfortable or free at an amusement park. These made my entire day." —BellaRichter

Get it from Amazon for $26.50+ (available in three sizes, four colors, and two styles).

I started using this recently, and along with neutralizing odor, I've been super impressed with the way it keeps it at bay, too! It comes out as a gel-like texture, then bubbles up into a satisfying foam that leaves me feeling squeaky clean. Because I like following it with a scented body wash, it does add an extra step to my shower routine, but the results have been sooo worth it. Once it helped eliminate a mild rash I was dealing with (ohh, to be human 🫠), I knew it had earned its permanent place in my summer arsenal. 

Promising review: "This body wash is so incredible I cannot actually use another brand and attempt to even convince myself that I’m as clean. I use this on my face, under arms and chest. I also love this product to scrub my back. My skin has never been more flawless and in conjunction with the Surface Deep anti-odorant spray, I live smell-free during even the hottest of seasons here in Florida! 12/10 recommend!" —Justine

Get it from Amazon for $28 (also available as pads and individually wrapped wipes).

Promising review: "I’ve had migraines all my life — I’m 31 now. I’ve been on all kinds of prescriptions that work, but make me so sleepy... I’ve been using this stick for one week now, and it’s amazing! I rubbed it on at the first hint of a headache/migraine, and it takes care of it fast. I haven’t taken a prescription migraine since I started using it." —Amanda Braswell

Promising review: "Fair skin, red head here, and I can barely go outside when it’s sunny without getting a sunburn. So I always have to wear sunscreen, and I hate the stickiness of most of the sprays out on the market. I have been a fan of this line for years now. It’s super lightweight (even the lotion), and it works, and you don’t feel sticky or feel like your pores are being clogged. This is the only sunscreen I will use daily and bring with me on beach vacations. And it’s reasonably priced as well!" —Dyanne Gray

Get a pack of three from Amazon for $25.79.

Note that the AAD recommends using at least SPF 30 and reapplying as needed for skin protection. You can read about sunscreen myths and facts from dermatologists for more information! 

Promising review: "As an avid Asian beauty user, I've used a lot of different Korean and Japanese sunscreens. I bought this on a whim for my trip to Italy, not expecting much. I've seen it advertised a lot on a bunch of TikTok videos and on BuzzFeed and figured it was overhyped. But oh my gosh, this thing is legit. Like freaking legit. It glides on really smoothly, the product's curve makes it really easy to apply, and it dries matte. It leaves no cast (on pale and tan skin) and also feels like nothing is there after a couple of minutes. It saved my boyfriend and I from the unmerciful Italian sun at peak summer. We ended up going through the entire stick by the end of our one-week trip just because of how often we were applying it. I honestly might switch from my HG sunscreen to this just because I love it so much! 100% recommend." —Hannah

Get it from Amazon for $16.33 (available in a Glowing style and a two-pack).

Promising review: "I brought this with me on a cruise, and I’m so glad I did! After a little too much sun on the deck, this spray was a total lifesaver. It provided instant cooling relief and took the sting out of my sunburn right away. The spray made it easy to apply without having to rub it in — perfect for those sensitive areas. The aloe was super soothing, and the lidocaine helped calm the burn fast. It absorbed quickly and didn’t leave any sticky feeling behind. Definitely a must-have for any sunny vacation or cruise — I'll never travel without it again!" —Barbara

Uniqlo offers other styles with their AIRism technology, like a polo shirt and tank top (with a built-in bra, BTW). 

Promising review: "I didn’t expect to love this T-shirt as much as I do, but here we are. This tee has totally earned a spot in my regular rotation. It looks like a classic cotton shirt, but feels lighter, smoother, and cooler, like it was actually made with real life in mind. It’s relaxed without feeling boxy, and the fabric drapes nicely without clinging. It also holds up well throughout the day, no weird stretching or bunching, and it's breathable even when it’s warm out." —Anni

Get it from Uniqlo for $24.90 (available in women's sizes XXS–XXL and eight colors).

Promising review: "LOVE. It is super comfortable to wear and is great for supporting my chest when I go on a run. Doesn't collect sweat. Very nice and cool material for hotter environments. I have so many colors because I love them. HIGHLY recommend!" —Cheyenne

Get it from Amazon for $25 (also available as a refill, a keychain case, and in kits with a keychain case). 

Note: This blanket is machine washable, though reviewers recommend gentle settings and low heat to avoid shrinking.

Promising review: "Not sure what magic this is, but it's my favorite blanket for living in Florida. It's not a miracle ice pad or anything, but it's definitely kept cooler compared to everything else in the room. It's pretty thin and lightweight and ventilated well. Doesn't make you feel hot or stuffy. The fabric is really soft, and I have found myself feeling cooled off when putting it over me at bedtime somehow. I got the twin size, but it'll easily fit a full or even queen-sized bed. It's massive haha. The price is great for its quality. Highly recommend if you're sick of waking up with night sweats." —Gillian Hanley

Get it from Amazon for $34.98+ (available in sizes throw XL–oversized king and 20 colors). 

Promising review: "This is an item I never knew I needed because I never knew they existed. Once I knew, I had to try them. I’m a 42D, and the large is a perfect fit. I am completely satisfied! These are soft, comfortable, and absorbent. I will invest in another pack to keep plenty on hand." —Kat769

I filled it up with sushi rolls for a concert, and it stayed very cold for over 10 hours. The cold packs I placed inside were still frozen after all that time! It is also roomy, a nice soft material, and very stylish, and the shoulder strap option makes it more functional. I love it!" —Leticia Hampton

Promising review: "First of all, these are not cheap-feeling curtains. Very nice weight to them. I live in southern Arizona and use the enclosed 'sunroom' as a workshop. The west side windows (floor to ceiling) make it too hot to work out there in the afternoon, even with the swamp cooler running. These curtains have made a HUGE difference in the thermal sense. The room stays much cooler, and they truly are blackout curtains. —K. McClure

Megababe is a woman-owned small business from entrepreneur, body acceptance advocate, and influencer Katie Sturino. 

When I studied abroad, I knew I would be walking long hours in Rome and was horrified that my roommates would suffer the consequences. I had never heard of foot deodorant, but I am forever grateful it exists. This one has a refreshing lavender smell, and with a quick spritz to my feet, shoes, and sometimes socks for that extra layer of defense, my feet remained completely stank-free! I only had two pairs of shoes, a leather pair of sandals and a pair of sneakers, and even when I wore them back-to-back, this spray kept them from ever retaining any odor (and yes, I gave them a proper whiff to check). I was seriously amazed it works so well (and that I still had some after eight weeks). 

Promising review: "LOVE IT!! Smells SO good! Works great! It sprays a fine mist and dries quickly. Love that it doesn’t leave feet feeling greasy or sticky, and doesn’t leave a white powdery finish like some of the others that are zinc-based. I spray it inside my sneakers and my kids' tennis shoes, softball cleats, and track spikes. My mom is using it while having to wear an air cast on her foot from a leg surgery. Will definitely be purchasing a few more bottles and buying it regularly!" —Jamie Layne Fields

FYI, depending on your situation, water may be enough to rehydrate you! Read more about electrolyte-enhanced drinks and hydration at Cleveland Clinic. 

I studied abroad for a summer in Rome, and many of my classes were spent walking for 5+ hours under the hot sun. Even with sun protection and readily available water across the city, I felt *extremely* drained by the end of them. These Liquid IVs were truly so helpful in revitalizing me and cooling me down — they're super refreshing! I eventually began taking them when I knew I had an extra-long day ahead of me, and as someone who is super sensitive to the heat, I could feel a difference in my hydration levels in the days I drank them versus the days I didn't.

Promising review: "I have tried other flavors but I personally love the concord grape one as it tastes like grape Kool-Aid to me and doesn't have that "electrolyte powder flavor" which is usually kinda salty. I took this on my trip to Universal Studios Orlando this past October to keep hydrated when the days were supposed to be really hot and humid. It works great at making sure I'm hydrated. Also, they are easy to stick in a purse or backpack if you need to and quickly dissolve. I hope they never get rid of this flavor." —Mary

They come in a resealable bag for repeated use, and pro-tip: One reviewer actually puts drops of citronella oil onto their bracelets to help them keep their smell and increase their longevity.

Promising review: "I can’t believe I’m saying this, but these mosquito repellent bracelets actually work! I’m someone who usually gets eaten alive, and my bites get so bulged and big. And now I can’t imagine leaving home without them. I would say it lasts a few days as long as you put them back into the resealable bag once you’re done with them. I wear one on one of my arms and another on my ankle, and you’re literally good to go. I’ve literally had no bites so far since wearing them. I live in the panhandle of Florida, it’s humid, hot, and there are countless mosquitoes once the sun fades. Usually, I never go home without a single bite any time I’m out, and now I don’t even have to worry about a single bite! —KKlustre

The Bug Bite Thing works best on fresh bites, and includes two sizes of suction. For older bites, it also includes a scraper to take off the top of the bug bite for better results. Also, to avoid any red markings left behind by the tool, it is best to only hold the suction for about 10–20 seconds. 

Promising review: "This is one of the best things I’ve ever purchased! About two hours before it was delivered, I noticed a big, itchy, red bump on my leg. Perfect timing! 😆 I used it for the first time just a few moments ago on said bug bite, and I’m happy to report the redness, the bump, and the urge to scratch are all GONE! My flabbers are ghasted and I’ll be ordering a few more to keep in the car, my purse, the medicine cabinet, etc. 🦟" —David & Heather

The cleaner is free of phosphorous and ammonia. 

Promising review: "This stuff works great! I used it on my windows and glass doors, and it made the job quick and painless. Just hook it up to the hose, spray, and rinse — it’s way faster than scrubbing by hand. The glass came out streak-free and clear, which is exactly what I wanted. Highly recommend this if you’ve got a lot of outdoor windows or glass surfaces to keep clean.

BuzzFeed Shopping is service journalism first: our writers and editors spend all day shopping so you don’t have to, vetting products, fact-checking brand claims, and surfacing what actually helps in real life. We center readers over revenue, recommend products with authenticity (using real experiences, not ad-speak), and reflect our diverse audience, inclusive of a variety of price points, people, and needs. We cut through fake deals, favor useful info over glossy fluff, and recommend both budget and splurge options with context so you can decide what’s right for you — and still have a little fun along the way.
