36 Little Products That Will Add Some Big Relief To Your SummerThese mosquito-repelling bracelets are summer’s hottest accessory âš.
1. A set of DEET-free handy mosquito-repelling bracelets you’ll definitely want to invest in this summer â these use essential oils, including citronella, to help stop those teensy vampires in their tracks.Â

Promising review: “I moved last year from Southern California to North Carolina. Bugs of all types have always been attracted to me but the amount of bites I got last summer was WILD. Someone gave me one of these types of bracelets to use one day and it seemed to work SOOOOOO I decided to buy myself an arsenal to prepare for this summer. I read the reviews and about 99% of them had great results. I’ve only used this bracelet twice but both times I was outside and un-touched. Delivery was very quick so that was a plus. I’m not fond of the smell, I’m hyper sensitive to smells, but I’d rather have the odor than being chewed alive.” âTracey Agopian

2. Or if it’s entirely too late for that, a delightful little tool called the “Bug Bite Thing” â it suctions on all kinds of bug bites to reduce swelling, itchiness, and redness. Rebecca O’Connell / BuzzFeed
Bug Bite Thing is a family-owned small business established in 2017 that specializes in bug bite relief products.Â
This works on mosquitoes, bees, wasps, biting flies, sea lice, and more (although TBH, if this list of bugs gets any longer I may just stay indoors forever!!).
Promising review: “I cannot stress to you enough how much better this simple little tool has made my quality of life during summer in Ohio. It rains a lot. There are a lot of mosquitoes. I have horrific allergic reactions to mosquito bites. We’re talking bumps swelling to the width of softballs within minutes of the bite. This tool doesn’t make those bumps go away, but it stops the itch IMMEDIATELY. I was a huge skeptic; how could a little suction cure this agonizingly itchy allergic reaction? I’ll be honest. I still really don’t know how it does, but it provides instant relief that no pill, cream, or injection ever has ever achieved for me. If you live anywhere where insect bites are common, you need to own one of these.” âCustomer

3. Kahi Wrinkle Bounce Hydrating Multi-Balm, a Korean beauty product you may have already seen taking TikTok by storm â this easy peasy all-in-one moisturizer for your face, lips, eyes, *and* neck is formulated with salmon complex and collagen to help reduce fine lines and boost radiance. Reviewers especially love how instant the hydration feels, and swear by it for that ~glass skin~, “just out of the shower” effect.Â
Check out a TikTok of the wrinkle balm in action.Â
Promising review: “Okay! So I was skeptical at first, but honestly this stick is life changing!!! In a matter of minutes my skin felt hydrated and plumped. After an hour, still hydrated. No greasy after feeling, very light, and you can feel your skin hydrated and absorbing. I love the fact that you can use it on your eyes, lips and wrinkles!! Game changer for me, will def try the others!” âKristyÂ
Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in six styles).Â
4. Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Moisturizing Face SPF 60 Serum, which finally answers the question of, “What if a high-quality priming moisturizer could also punch the UV right out of the sun??” This lightweight, nongreasy, no-white-cast formula is here to solve all your warm weather beauty woes once and for all by playing nice under your makeup *and* protecting you from the sun’s rays.Â
Promising review: “I have been searching for a sunscreen like this for a long time. I really dislike putting anything heavy on my face and prefer a gel-like consistency. I am a big fan of the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hyaluronic Acid serum and the texture of this sunscreen feels pretty close to that. I have tried much more expensive ‘serum’ sunscreens and find this one my favorite and for a much better price point.” âJHoch
Get it from Amazon for $13.99.Â
5. Orrrr a handy as heck Burt’s Bees sunburn soother you’ll probably want to stock up on if you’re a “just in case” kinda human â it’s made with aloe and coconut oil to hydrate skin and gently relieve pain from the sun’s unforgiving rays within just a few hours.Psst â a lot of reviewers mentioned this also helped prevent peeling and itching!
Promising review: “I bought this product to take on our vacation. I am so glad I did. I got burnt on my lower legs and tops of my feet. I thought I had put enough sunscreen on. I didn’t. That night I woke with my legs and feet both burning and itching. The instant I put this on I had relief. OMG I cannot say enough about this stuff. Buy it. Keep it on hand. Great product. Thank you Burt’s Bees!” âD.S.Â
Get it from Amazon for $16.69.
6. A three-pack of vintage-inspired polarized sunglasses for anyone who needs to stock up on a few “these look like Ray-Bans, but I won’t cry into my Baja Blast if I accidentally leave them in the Taco Bell parking lot” pairs this year. These are especially handy because you can match the subtle prints to whatever ‘fit you’re wearing!Â
Promising review: “Iâve been buying these for years. They replaced my Ray-Bans that look identical! Fit great and with the price point I donât have to worry too much with my kids and being on the go!” âJessica M
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $19.99 (clip the $2 off coupon on the product page for this price; available in seven sets, as well as two-packs and individual pairs).Â
7. A cute lil’ insect catcher you can set in a plant or near your fruit bowl or compost to deal with any unwanted fluttering guests. These odorless sticky traps are designed to work indoors and outdoors and will stop fruit flies, gnats, mosquitoes, and more â without the high price tag of the electronic or liquid versions.Â
Reviewers note that these work best if you put them somewhere the flies are already attracted to â these will definitely trap them, but they won’t attract them on their own.Â
Promising review: “I had a HUGE fruit fly issue after I found a rotting lemon that had called behind a bread box. I paid $20+ for the liquid fly traps, but nothing worked. I ordered these sticky fly traps, and within two days, the sticky traps caught 50+ fruit flies, and I donât have any more fruit flies. These were the least expensive options I tried and worked the best. I HIGHLY recommend!!!” âLisa
Get a pack of 18 from Amazon for $5.39 (available in 12 styles and packs).Â
8. A set of cult-favorite, absurdly affordable moisture-wicking exercise socks to spare you both from blisters and the ridiculous price of socks from name brands.Â
Amazon
I have been buying a new set of these every year since 2020, and they have kept my VERY blister- and chafing-prone feet snug and moisture-wicked on every single long run. They’ve essentially phased out any of my other socks, because they’re extremely comfortable to boot. As a runner who often clocks in 25+ miles a week and often in some “yikes!” summer heat, I cannot recommend these socks enough.Â
Promising review: “These socks are designed perfectly for running socks. The bottoms and toes are thick, the tops are thin, the lower heel is reinforced, the heel top has a tab that provides extra cushion on the Achilles where some shoes like to wear into you. The size is true to fit. I’ve purchased many packs of these and they are the best I’ve tried.” âSmokeyBear
Get a pack of six from Amazon for $16.95+ (available in four color combos and sizes SâL).
9. A stick of Body Glide anti-chafing balm you can apply between your thighs or under your bra to avoid all that skin irritation in ~hot spots~.
Amazon
I swear by this to the point where if I can’t find it in the morning of a run, I just won’t go out, LOLOL. My boobs chafe SO BADLY under my sports bra bands, no matter what kind I’m wearing, but putting on a tiny bit of this before I leave works like a charm. Absolutely no more friction and no more going “OW OW OW” in the shower because my literal boob wounds were stinging.
Promising review: “This was a TikTok buy and it was worth it. Highly recommend it. It does the work. Long lasting and not sticky at all.” âEBATL
Get it from Amazon for $8.99.
10. A pair of popular cushioned “recovery” sandals perfect for anyone who is craving all the cute summer fashion with a side of ridiculous comfort (and pain relief!). Not only are these super adorable, but reviewers with pain from plantar fasciitis, bunions, spondylilothesis, and other chronic conditions absolutely swear by them, with a ton saying they’re like walking on ~clouds~.Â
Promising review: “”I have ordered several pairs trying to find the one that lives up to its hype, well this one is it. Super cushy, fits true to size â I ordered the mauvish pink colored one and love it. I will be ordering a black pair. I have a heel spur and plantar’s fasciitis so regular flip flops bother me after wearing several hours, these do not. Very pleased with this purchase and highly recommend.” âleah
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+Â (available in women’s sizes 5â12 and 21 colors).Â
11. A set of popular, ridiculously affordable wickaway sweatbands for a quick fix to stop the sweat from stinging your eyes (or worse, from leaking sunscreen into your eyes).
Promising review: “Super happy with this purchase! The price of 10 headbands is about the same as I have paid for one name-brand headband, so I was expecting sub-standard quality. But they are really great. I’ve worn them and washed them, and they are holding up well. They stay in place when I am working out hard or running. They are great at absorbing sweat, too. They probably stay in place a little better than the expensive headbands I have. The colors/designs are super nice, too. One of the best purchases I have made in some time!” âTerri D
Get a set of ten from Amazon for $13.88.
12. A truly multi-talented set of colorful cooling towels you can to prevent yourself from overheating â all you have to do is wet these, and they get chilly to drape on your head or neck. Once the chill runs out, you can wet them again to get it back!  Promising review: “These have been brilliant to use, draped around my neck on the long walk back to my car after gym workouts. They are lightweight and perform exactly as described. Iâve even been able to work in my yard in the Florida summer heat for the first time in years. Affordable and well worth the money.” âKim Pinson
Get a set of four for $18.99+ (available in 12 color combos).Â
13. An investment-worthy high-voltage outdoor bug zapper to stop uninvited guests from joining you during dinner on the patio â this gizmo instantly stops mosquitoes, gnats, flies, and moths in their tracks.Â
Promising review: “Was instantaneous results. Once the light came on, anything flying was immediately drawn to it. I only ran it for less than an hour and needed to clean the catcher bowl. Great product, especially in South Florida where mosquitoes are immune to every spray that’s been created.” âGlu Mobile
Get it from Amazon for $39.98.
14. An oh-so-cooling polar bear hydrating eye stick for some sweet, sweet relief when you wake up with puffy, aching eyes. This formula is blended with Iceland glacial water to help tighten skin and tackle dark circles so you look and feel more ~refreshed~. Bonus: it’s a heck of a lot cheaper than the other TikTok fave, the Tula version.Â
Promising review: “I have always had serious dark circles and bags under my eyes, and this has really changed this for me. The results are incredible. The puffiness is gone. The dark circles are hardly noticeable. My sensitive skin has not broken out. I never write reviews, but this was so good that I had to write a review. This actually works.” âBen
“Better than Tula! I love this cooling stick!! Itâs super easy, affordable, and smells lovely.” âHeather
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.Â
15. A teensy undetectable laptop mouse jiggler you can slide into the USB to keep your computer active on Teams, Slack, and all those other various technological overlords that keep track of you so you can take some moments to yourself in the sunshine when you need it âïžđ.Â
Promising review: “Saves me from auto logouts! My brother recommended this handy gadget. I work from home and have three monitors. When I leave my desk for lunch, the computer goes to sleep and when I come back, everything is logged out and whatever was on three monitors ends up on two. SO frustrating. This is programmable for three settings and I use it on the minimal movement so when I come back, everything is just as I left it. Revolutionary! Just remember to turn it on!” âIsaiah
Get it from Amazon for $8.99.Â
16. A fully adjustable portable backyard mister that coils itself like a lil’ snake so you can aim it wherever you please, whether you’re wrapping it around a railing, a chair, or propping it up next to yourself on a blanket. It may be teensy, but it will cool the area off by 20 degrees! This is the only pet snake situation I will be endorsing this summer, thank you very much.Â
Promising review: “Works exactly how I want it to. Provides a fine, cool mist on the patio, allowing us to enjoy the backyard until sunset without breaking a sweat. Easy to set up. It was out of the box and cooling us off within minutes.” âDebra L. Kusek
Get it from Amazon for $27Â (also available in multipacks).Â
17. A pair of sweatproof “floating” air conduction headphones designed to stay put by settling just over your ear instead of inside it â basically all the convenience and privacy of earbuds, without the discomfort of physically putting them in your ears. It picks up calls just as well as any other pair, and is designed so the sound isn’t audible to anyone else!Â
Purity is a small business that specializes in tech products and accessories.Â
Promising review: “I’ve tried soooo many different types of earbuds over the years with no success. But these Purity open-air headphones are the first pair I’ve ever tried that actually fit well, don’t hurt, and sound great! So, after many years of trying, I’ve FINALLY found the right ones for my ears!! Woohoo! They are comfortable, lightweight, have great sound clarity, are easy to operate, have great battery life, and people can hear me clearly when I talk on the phone with them.  I definitely recommend these, especially if regular in-ear buds don’t work for you either.” âCPic
Get it from Amazon for $13.39 (available in 14 styles).Â
18. The internet-famous Revlon oil-absorbing volcanic face roller you simply swipe over your face like a magic wand that makes excess oil disappear â super convenient and *way* less wasteful than using blotting strips and time-wasting than fancy powders that need a ton of blending work.Â
Promising review:Â “First off, if you have extremely oily skin, this. is. it. I was so tired of getting blotting powder/wipes. It felt wasteful and always left residue on my face. I saw this on TikTok and NEEDED it. It was back ordered, but then I got an email saying it was in stock, and I was SO excited. Not only is it affordable, but it’s washable, which helps you save money and be less wasteful.” âKelsey B.
Get it from Amazon for $9.63.Â
19. A set of Sea Bands, which target an acupressure point on your wrists meant to help reduce nausea â a must-have for summer traveling if you get motion sick on long car rides, cruises, buses, and trains. Read more about acupressure and nausea at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
Promising review: “These were awesome! My entire family suffers from motion sickness, especially carsickness. My little one gets sick in the car on a regular car ride through the city. So I knew that a long road trip was going to be a disaster. I was amazed at how well these bands worked for everyone! Not one single person complained about being sick for 12 hours in the car. I have suffered for decades and now I know better. I will never travel without mine again!” â1SmartCookie
Get a set of two from Amazon for $8.20.Â
20. A set of seamless, delightfully absorbent cotton and bamboo liners, because even when you can take the heat, sometimes your boobs simply CANNOT. Now they can sweat in peace without you worrying about sweat stains on your favorite blouse.Â
Promising review: “This is one of those things that I wish I’d found years earlier. I’ve suffered from mortifying stress-induced under-boob sweat for most of my adult life. Also, I’m a lifelong Seattle girl who gets upset when it’s warmer than 65 degrees outside. So when I stumbled upon this product, I was curious enough to buy a small pack. And yes, I’ve come back for MORE! For real, I won’t put on a bra without one of these liners now. It absorbs all the moisture from heat and stress. And because it’s a really soft bamboo/cotton mix, my skin is finally not feeling tortured under there! To the makers of this ingenious life-changing product: thank you, thank you, thank you!” âNiko
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in women’s sizes MâXXL and in several color combos).Â
21. Eos’ Shea Butter Vanilla Cashmere body lotion, which TikTok is going *feral* over both because of the lightweight, long-lasting moisture, and the soothing, delicious smell that reviewers compare to more expensive brands like Philosophy and Bath & Body Works.Â
Promising review: “Heaven sent for your skin; heavenly scent to enjoy. This feels absolutely amazing going on. Gets absorbed quickly, for a lotion rich with oil. Doesn’t leave a greasy feeling, as long as you give it a minute or two to fully absorb. The scent is, for me anyway, like aromatherapy. It smells like an iced sugar cookie, and is a great base layer for fragrance. Very relaxing.” âDragonheart Jo
“Better than TikTok said! OMRyan Gosling, this is an amazing lotion!!! Run, donât walk, and buy this lotion! The name is vanilla cashmere and that is exactly what this is! Love love love!” âDeeDra Billings
Get it from Amazon for $8.98. Â

Check out a TikTok of the portable fan in action.Â
Promising review: “Our vacation planner suggested getting something like this for when you’re waiting in line at an amusement park when the sun is out. Best advice ever, used this when we were at Disney this past year. It’s lightweight and doesn’t weigh you down, the fan has adjustable speeds and also includes a phone charger via USB A port and also a flashlight function. Love that it folds up nice and small, great fan that I’d recommend to anyone!” âAndrew
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in four colors).Â
24. A pack of unscented antiperspirant wipes that work for up to *seven days* after application â perfect for those of us whose underarms are a little, uh, enthusiastic, to say the least. Reviewers especially swear by this for events that might bring on nervous sweating!Â
Amazon
Psst â you should definitely “patch test” this on a small area of skin before putting it on to ensure you don’t have any reaction!Â
Promising review: “I saw this product on TikTok, and I decided to give it a shot since it was only like $20 for 10 wipes (that’s 10 weeks, 2.5 months) of no underarm sweat. It worked! I was so happy to finally be able to wear all the shirts I own that are not black!” âNes172011
Get a 10-pack from Amazon for $19.99 (each box lasts two months).

Promising review: “We recently moved to a beach area, and we are constantly there. This item has changed our entire lives! It lasts decently long (depending on how much you use it), it smells super good (not at all like baby powder), and it’s super effective. It has saved me from vacuuming my car at least 1xâ2x a week. I even use it on my dogs paws and bellies to make sure they’re taken care of. I will definitely be buying the refill and another baggie to have exclusively in the car.” âGabbs Uresti
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.Â
26. A bottle of Nyx matte setting spray for anyone who wants the all-day protection of Mac and Urban Decay’s setting sprays without the price tag â this matte finish will lock your look in place in just a few seconds, even on days when the sun is trying to melt you like an ice pop.
Promising review: “Expensive isn’t always better. I tried this spray before spending the day outdoors in 90-degree heat at Disneyland, and the only place my makeup moved was on the tip of my nose because I have allergies and use a lot of Kleenex. But otherwise, it looked as fresh as it did when I put it on. Iâve used Mac and Urban Decay setting spray, and they never worked as well as this stuff. I am completely amazed. Definitely give it a try.” âStephanie
Get it from Amazon for $9.97 (also available in dewy and radiant finishes, and a jumbo size, as well as in multipacks).
27. A Meridian “Manscape” trimmer that a lot of people don’t know is an excellent razor for *anyone* shaving in sensitive areas, since it’s mainly marketed toward men. If you’re worried about nicks, cuts, ingrown hairs, and razor burn, particularly in your pubic area, this waterproof trimmer is about to be your new favorite gizmo.Â
Promising review: “I never thought about getting something like this until someone on TikTok was talking about how this changed her life. Literallyyyyy itâs so easy to use, it doesnât take me an hour to shave anymore, so I save so much time. I hated shaving so much because it took so long and was to tedious but now itâs so easy????? Please buy this thing, it is probably the best thing Iâve purchased on Amazon ever. Iâve never cut myself with it, itâs very simple, just has one button to turn it off and on, and it comes with a charger. Like Y’ALL, itâs so good.” âgrydneybean
Get it from Amazon for $49.99Â (available in four colors).Â
28. And if it’s too late for that, a bottle of Tend Skin Solution to help prevent the infection of ingrown hair, you don’t have to spend hours psyching yourself up to shave knowing that you’re gonna be dodging a bazillion sensitive spots on your skin.Promising review: “After many years of razor burn on my face/neck, I finally broke down and bought this per a friend’s recommendation. I have sensitive skin and had given up hope that anything could help. This totally changed my outlook on shaving. My neck especially would be the worst. I dab it on immediately after I rinse and dry, post-shave. It does burn a bit but that goes away pretty quickly. Totally worth it to not have razor burn/bumps anymore. I only apply it once after shaving even though the directions recommend repeat applications the following day. Go ahead and purchase, you won’t be disappointed!” âbill nye
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+Â (available in two sizes).
29. A tea tree oil butt acne-clearing lotion that works overtime to help clear and prevent further buttne. (Is that already a word, or am I getting … ~cheeky~?)

Get it from Amazon for $22.99Â (apply the $2 coupon on the product page for this price).Â
30. A refillable sunscreen sponge applicator with a rollerball inside to make sunscreen application as quick, effective, and fun (?????) as possible. This unconventional gizmo has helped a lot of parents win the “PLEASE hop out of the water and let me sunscreen you” game once and for all.Â
Promising review: “Used for the first time today on my 7-year-old. First time in his life he actually enjoyed having sunscreen applied to his skin! Very easy to use and not messy at all. Extremely pleased with this purchase!” âamyj
Get it from Amazon for $15.98+ (available in six colors and in multipacks).Â

Promising review: “These are amazing. They really do totally freshen you up after a hard workout or run. I live in New Orleans, and even after a long summer run, if I am in a bind for time, I can use one of these and be totally confident regardless of where I need to go. Individually packaged so you can keep one in the car, one in the gym bag, one in the desk, etc. Great to have at work if you have an afterwork event and don’t have time to run home and freshen up beforehand.

It’s designed to fit small, medium, and large sizes in most major coffee chains, including Starbucks, Dunkinâ, and McDonaldâs, so it’s worth the investment!Â
Frost Buddy is a small business that specializes in universal thermal-controlling drinkware.Â
Check out a TikTok of the Frostbuddy in action.Â
It comes with a lid, so you can also use it as a regular thermos to keep drinks icy cold and super hot! TBH, you can even pop a hot coffee cup into this to keep it warm, so the Frostbuddy is technically also a Hotbuddy.Â
Promising review: “I absolutely love this! I use this all the time for my coffee from Starbucks, and it is amazing! I’ll get iced coffee at 9 a.m. and still have ice in it at 7 p.m. I have many Frost Buddy products now, and their entire line is phenomenal. This is definitely a must-have item for coffee or tea drinkers. I love that it also comes with a leakproof lid, so you can put your own drink in there, too. Overall, awesome product!” âEHW

33. A set of Liquid I.V. Hydration Multiplier packets, an electrolyte drink mix infused with potassium and vitamin C you can stir into your water to help speed up hydration and help restore energy levels when you’re dehydrated from exercise or spending too much time in the sun. Reviewers who don’t love the taste of water also swear by the yummy Lemon Lime flavor to get their hydration in!Â
Psst â it’s also gluten-free, soy-free, and dairy-free!Â
Promising review: “I love this stuff!!! In Florida, where the sun can take the moisture out of you between the heat and the humidity, you can tend to get a little dehydrated, no matter how much water you drink. I put one of these packets ion my large water bottle and drink. I start to feel better soon after I drink one. I don’t do more than one a day, unless I am working extra hard outside in the summer heat. It reminds me of lemon/lime sports drinks without that awful sugary after taste.” âN. Abdallah
Get a pack of 16 for $22.28. Â
34. A satin pillowcase to invest in not only for its cooling effect, but the fact that it’s soft on your skin and creates less friction for your hair so that it won’t get as tangled while you sleep.

Check out a TikTok of the Kitsch satin pillowcase in action.Â
Promising review: “I’m really liking this pillow. I woke up today with nice wavy hair, not dry tangled hair. I’ve been trying to grow out the layer of hair on the top back of my head and it’s been so stubborn! Keeps getting tangled and breaks here and there from bleaching and dye damage, but with this new pillow I notice it doesn’t tangle, which means it can grow right without rubbing and tangling/pulling! So I’m excited to see what happens by the end of summer! Also the pillow is soft and is so much more prettier in person! đđđđđđ” âAmazon Customer đ·
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+Â (available in two sizes and in 34 styles).Â
35. A pack of Dr. Frederick’s Original Better Blister Bandages, aka the blister whisperers â if you’re someone who tends to get blisters when your feet sweat, you’ll want to invest in these. These waterproof bandages don’t just protect blisters, but are designed to actively help heal them (and significantly reduce the pain from friction!).Â
Each pack comes with bandages to fit your heel, toe, and foot. People who wear heels also recommend these!Â
As a blister-prone human, I swear by these. A few years ago, before I invested in these running socks that prevent blisters, I got a blister on my big toe so unspeakably large and painful that I am cringing even TYPING about it, and no amount of rest from running seemed to heal it; it just kept coming back. I finally used one of these bandages, and the pain was virtually gone from the moment I put it on. It was also so airtight that nothing got inside, and it didn’t loosen in the shower. You’re supposed to take it off when it loses adhesive so it can come off gently without disturbing the blister if it hasn’t fully healed yet. After using two of these in a row over the course of a week and a half, my blister was finally healed up enough that it stopped coming back.Â
Get it from Amazon for $13.99Â (available in four types of packs).Â
36. A coconut-scented after-sun body lotion to rehydrate and replenish your skin after long days in the sun or soaking up the drying chlorine of the pool. The whipped texture and delightful scent will have you feeling like a whole dessert đ.Â
Promising review: “This product feels like whipped cream. So smooth and silky. Not greasy. Smells delicious and not oily. I applied it for the first time after a day at the pool, and it was just what my skin needed. Very happy with the product.” âAimee Brunson
