Apple
Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Generation)
$168.99 $249.00
“I know, it’s easy to scroll past Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 when it tops everyone’s Prime Day lists. But as a recent Apple convert (I only switched to the iPhone within the last year, sorry!), I can attest to the extreme noise cancellation that these earbuds deliver. They drown out airplane noise, my children’s screeching, you name it — if you appreciate quiet environments, this might be the best $170 you ever spend.” — Danielle Directo-Meston, THR E-Commerce Writer

Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max with Xbox Core Wireless Controller Bundle
$78.90 $119.98 34% off
“Amazon added the Xbox app to the retail giant’s app store to use with the Fire TV Stick 4K Max. This means you can now play games from Xbox Game Pass Ultimate through the streaming device without an actual Xbox Series X/S gaming console. This really opens the door for more people to get into gaming, or return to gaming if you stopped years ago. This gaming bundle comes with a Fire TV Stick 4K Max, an Xbox Core Wireless Controller and one month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate (a $20 per month value) for free. Just plug the streaming device into a TV, fire up the Xbox app, sync the gaming controller via Bluetooth and start playing hit games, like Hi-Fi Rush, Starfield, Deathloop and Forza Horizon 5. Think of it as Netflix, but for Xbox cloud gaming.” — Rudie Obias, PMC E-Commerce Writer
LEVEL8 Gibraltar Carry On Luggage, 20″ Aluminum Luggage Hardside Suitcase
$399.99 $439.99 9% off
“Someone once told me that the suitcase you take to the airport needs to ‘command respect,’ especially if you’re after that upgrade or extra perk at check-in. My go-to carry-on is this aluminum hardsider from Level 8.
It’s got the minimalist good looks I’m after, with plenty of storage space inside. Everything snaps shut with the durable locks and the spinner wheels are surprisingly adept at handling everything from airport carpeting to cobblestone roads. The best part: it’s still on sale after Prime Day, at less than one-fifth the price of other aluminum carry-ons on the market” (apply the on-site Amazon coupon to see sale price reflected in cart) — Tim Chan, Associate Vice President of Commerce, PMC
Grande Cosmetics GrandeLASH-MD Lash Enhancing Serum
$47.60 $68.00 30% off
“My iconic grandmother swears by this stuff and purchased it for me for Christmas a year-and-a-half ago. I put it in a drawer and finally started using it about four months ago. I don’t have enough words to describe how obsessed I am with it. I’ve since re-purchased a bottle, and it’s the number one item I’ll be stocking up on during Prime Day. I’ve never had long eyelashes and now the compliments just keep rolling in (it’s thrilling). Even this past weekend I was at a baby shower and an old friend said, ‘How do your eyelashes literally go up to your eyebrows?’ When I told her my secret she said it looked like I had the most natural eyelash extensions she’s ever seen.” — Erin Lassner, THR E-Commerce Writer

Travel Inspira Digital Luggage Scale
Save an extra 10% with code HQ4V92LF
$9 $12.99 31% off
“Travel Inspira’s digital luggage scale has been a godsend for all my plane trips. As I mentioned here, it helped me coast through LAX (not an easy feat!) while checking into my international flight to Paris. It’s accurate (my suitcase clocked in at the same exact weight at check-in), lightweight, super easy to use. I recommend keeping it in your personal bag when flying so you can easily take it out to weigh and re-weigh your luggage at the hotel or airport. Considering the amount of time, money and extra baggage fees I’ve saved, this travel essential is worth even the full $13 price tag. See my own photo to the right for proof!” — DDM
EltaMD UV Clear Tinted Face Sunscreen, Oil-Free Tinted Sunscreen
$34.32 $45.00 24% off
“Full disclosure: As an e-commerce editor, I admittedly enjoy an endless supply of skin-care samples to test out. Though I’ve been eyeing EltaMD’s UV Clear broad spectrum SPF 46 face sunscreen for some time, I finally cleared some space in my skin-care routine to add it before my foundation — and I wish I’d done it ages ago. This is now one of the products I will buy again and again. I love that they don’t test on animals, the formula goes on so smoothly and it always leaves my skin feeling moisturized and nourished. Although this doesn’t have any fragrance (I’m very sensitive to anything scented), I actually love the natural scent of the ingredients (it’s celeb-approved too!).” — DDM
JISULIFE Handheld 3-in-1 Mini Fan
$14.39 $24.99 42% off
“After spotting these clever mini fans in the hands of very prepared parkgoers on a hot Disneyland day, I immediately tracked them down on Amazon and placed an order on the spot. This travel-friendly folding fan was such a hit that I ordered one for everyone else in my family. It has a built-in flashlight and doubles as a USB charger — two features we recently used during a two-week RV road trip that brought us to four national parks. The charger saved my phone while hiking, the fan was a must-have on hot hiking trails in Zion and Moab and the flashlight was a nighttime savior, so it was absolutely worth the under-$20 price tag. I plan on stocking up as they make great holiday gifts.” — DDM
Beckham Hotel Collection Bed Pillows
Save 20% with on-site coupon
$47.99 $59.99 20% off
“Summer is the perfect time to refresh your bedding (and to replace those yellowing pillows) and my favorite pillows are from Beckham Hotel Collection. They’re like the goldilocks of pillows — not too soft but not too firm, with just enough loft to support my neck and head. As someone who alternates between sleeping on my side and back, these Beckham Hotel pillows provide support no matter my position.” — TC
Danjor Linens Queen Sheet Set
$19.20 $23.99 20% off
“It’s not just pillows that are a worthwhile Prime Day buy — this six-piece sheet set is on sale for under $20, an almost unheard of steal. I love how comfortable these sheets are and how easy they are to take care off. They’re fully machine-washable and don’t really get wrinkled. I’ve used these sheets for years and they still hold up to every wash.” – TC
DERMORA Golden Glow Under Eye Patches
Save 15% with on-site coupon
$11.47 $13.49 15% off
“You can read stress all over my eyes, especially if I haven’t gotten enough sleep or am feeling dehydrated. That’s why I keep a pack of these Dermora Eye Patches in my travel bag and bathroom cabinet. The cooling gel texture instantly refreshes and de-puffs, while the sticky patches stay on without being irritating. This Prime Day deal gets you a 20-pack of eye masks. Apply the on-site Amazon coupon to save 15 percent off.” — TC
Solawave 4-in-1 Radiant Renewal Wand and Serum Bundle
Save an extra 25% with on-site coupon
$104.25 $189.99 45% off
“There’s a reason why Solawave is one of the most popular facial devices on Amazon — it really works. I use this renewal wand for a few minutes every morning before I put on my skincare routine and the red light therapy has worked wonders with lifting, de-puffing and smoothing out my skin. This Amazon deal includes Solawave’s “renew complex serum,” which helps to activate each more skincare benefits. This post-Prime Day sale gets you the celeb-approved device or 25 percent off.” — TC
Cosori Electric Gooseneck Kettle
$55.98 $69.99 20% off
“I’ve had this kettle for about three years now and it’s my most prized kitchen possession. It’s both ridiculously chic and efficient. Target is currently running a sale on the luxe copper shade that I’m in love with.” — EL
Katchy Midnight Indoor Insect Trap
Save an extra 25% with on-site coupon
$39.99 $45.99 13% off
“So it’s not the most glamorous purchase, but with the humid and sticky weather coming, I stocked up on four of these insect and mosquito traps for my house. The fan and UV light instantly attracts and traps fruit flies, gnats and yes, those pesky mosquitoes too. It turns on automatically when dark and to be honest, the soft light and low buzzing sound has pulled double duty as a sound machine to help me sleep as well. Use discount code 20JULYKATCH for additional savings.” – TC
ANGRY ORANGE All-Purpose Cleaner Spray
$15.53 $18.49 16% off
“I’m already a fan of Angry Orange’s Odor Eliminator concentrate — it’s lived up to its name when I still had three pets (including aging animals with unfortunate incontinence issues) under one roof — and I always stock up when it’s on sale. That’s why I’m buying a few of the brand’s all-purpose cleaner spray while it’s discounted by 16 percent. The company has already earned my trust with its effective smell remover, and 87 percent of buyers have rated it four or more stars for its ability to “really cut away at dirt and grime” and “clean something nothing else would.” — DDM
UCOMX 3-in-1 Charging Station for iPhone, Apple Watch, AirPods
$26.99 $32.99
“This 3-in-1 charging station for Apple devices got an even deeper discount after Prime Day, and I absolutely recommend it to frequent travelers who want to cut down on all the cables. I like that it can be folded into a triangle to save space while charging an iPhone, Apple Watch or AirPods.” — DDM
