Don’t let a sunburn or B.O. ruin the good vibes.

I'm a Shopping Editor who uses my passion for hitting "add to cart" (and my 8+ years in media) to curate the best products on the web — I'm particularly passionate about finding the best beauty products, which probably stems from my days of working at Lush Cosmetics, where I learned about effective skincare ingredients while getting covered in bath bomb dust every day.

Having a good personal care routine can come with all sorts of unexpected benefits, such as starting your day off on the right foot or having a little mid-day pick-me-up to keep you going. If excess sweat, stinky breath, or even random nausea always threatens to ruin your day, we found several items that'll help you feel a bit better with very little effort. Yes, there's even a solution for soothing those bug bites on your ankle that *refuse* to stop itching.

Promising reviews: "These are so handy to have when you travel! Recently, I took a short mini vacation with my husband and decided to bring these along. Soooo convenient to have, especially because you don’t need a separate cup or anything to pour the mouthwash in. I will definitely be purchasing these from now on for travel and vacations!" —Larua

"Hidden secret weapon. Loved conveniently having great-tasting mouthwash." —Marlene M.

Get a pack of five from Amazon for $2.99 or a pack of 30 for $13.98.

Reviewers say the scent is primarily of mint and menthol — similar to that of Vicks VapoRub. Check out a TikTok of the nausea relief inhaler in action.

Promising review: "Took this on my first cruise. Anytime that I started to feel woozy, I'd reach for it. I'm sure the required act of deep breathing helped a lot — and breathing in the fragrance of the essential oil is very calming and effective. Worked for me! Wonderful!" —Willy&Lilly

Get a pack of two from Amazon for $12.99 (also available in a pack of four). 

Promising review: "If you’re someone who has always struggled to find a deodorant that truly works, and you’re reading these reviews in hopes of a real, honest opinion, let me tell you — this product is absolutely amazing. I have struggled for so long to find an antiperspirant that actually stops sweat and odor. I’ve even tried men’s antiperspirants, and nothing ever worked for me. This, though, is a game-changer. There’s no smell, it keeps me dry — yesterday, I wore a sports shirt, which usually stinks by the end of the day — and it didn’t. I couldn’t believe it; I kept sniffing it all day. No odor, no wetness — this is a must-buy. Go get it now!" —Karina L.

Menthol can be drying, so you may want to spot test if you have dry or sensitive skin.

Promising review: "When I say this works for BO, it’s magic. For someone living in a hot state, work in a hot job, always working out and sweating, this product keeps you in check ALL DAY! No skin irritants, no dryness, and I feel clean. The mint isn’t strong, so you can feel the tingle, but not for long. I let it sit on my skin for at least three minutes before rinsing off. Best soap ever! I will continue to use this. Forget Dove antibacterial, forget Dial, BUY THIS!" —Shelby

Promising review: "This body wash is a MUST for me. It really works. I don’t get musty or stinky when I sweat! Sad to say, but I was sick for three days and stayed fresh until the third day. I will keep buying Lume, because it works well to cut odor." —Shirmel

Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in four scents and also in two-packs).

The two reviewer photos above were taken four days apart. 

Promising review: "I got a bit sunburned and didn't realize until I hopped into the shower and noticed how the water kind of stung. I was then a bit red in several places and applied this. The next day, the redness was a lot tamer, and my skin wasn't as sensitive. By day two, it was as if I was never sunburned and just tan! Now I put this on after I shower if I had spent some time in the sun just in case to help my skin stay hydrated and soothed." —Carrie

Promising review: "First off, this smells great! I got sunburned near my armpit, and it hurt every time my shirt rubbed on it. I sprayed this on my burn, and it INSTANTLY soothed my skin and didn't hurt when my shirt rubbed. The NEXT day, my skin was not red anymore!! Love this product!" —Nicole K.

Promising review: "I heard about it on TikTok, and I was skeptical. I put it in the freezer as soon as I got it in the mail. Then, out of nowhere, I felt a headache coming on. I pulled it out of the freezer, slipped it on, and I passed out. When I woke up, my migraine was gone. I now go to bed with it on almost every night. I love that it's a blackout mask. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!" —TheWalkFam

Get it from Amazon for $29.95+ (available in five colors and two-packs). 

Promising review: "Love this primer + setting spray! You get the perfect amount in the size bottle, and the spray mechanism came and worked perfectly fine. The packaging is sleek and professional, and when applied onto the face, it does not leave skin feeling oily or have that slimy texture left behind as some primers do. When used together with a full face of makeup, I swear it lasted over eight hours with no touch-ups. Perfect, perfect, perfect setting spray + primer choice. Will always buy!" —Lauren Snay

Promising review: "This is one of those things that I wish I'd found years earlier. I've suffered from 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° 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! Sincerely, all the grateful ta-tas you've helped to care for." —Niko

Get a three-pack from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in women's sizes M–XXL and in several color combos). 

Promising review: "I love these. I have a few cute summer dresses with sleeves — eeek! The first time I tried the shields, it was 104 degrees at an outdoor event, and I was sweating bullets! The shields worked BEAUTIFULLY. Not a sweat stain in sight." —Cosmic Girl

Get a pack of 24 from Amazon for $14.99.

Promising review: "I show horses in Texas, and it’s hot! I started using these in my riding hats a few years ago and they’re a game changer. They capture all the sweat and keep it from running in my eyes. I can usually use one for a few different competitions. They don’t change how the hats fit either, because they’re very thin." —ponygirlatcua

Get a pack of three from Amazon for $25.98+ (also available in larger multipacks).

Promising review: "These pasties are life changing!! I forget I’m wearing them, AND I can forget worrying about whether or not it’s too cold, if I need a jacket or extra layers. I can finally wear so many tops I feared my glass-cutters would overpower. I’ve worn these for nights out in dresses or just a regular day at work with a nice top!

I’m a full B-cup and DO NOT wear bras. I loathe them. I refuse. When I pop these bad boys on, I am carefree, comfortable, and secure... They don’t show through, they shape right to your natural shape. Thick enough to cover, but not thick enough to see. I wore a straight-up fishnet shirt; the color was so spot-on that it looked like they disappeared. Flawless." —Amazon Customer

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

BuzzFeed editor Natalie Brown swears by these pasties! Check out her Nippies review to learn more.

Promising review: "My favorite dry shampoo! It smells great and truly is sweat-activated. I wear it during some heavy workouts, and I can smell it, and it helps keep my hair from being greasy if I have plans after." —Marianna Stutts

Get it from Amazon for $9.98+ (available in two sizes).

Promising review: "The texture is thick! But it’s a good thick. These feel so smooth on the lips and are very glossy. Currently my favorite E.l.f. lip product, over the Glow Reviver Oil. Smell is not overwhelming and neither is taste. I came back to order them all." —Khloe3

Get it from Amazon for $7.97 (available in three flavors). 

This works best in thinning ares on the crown and partline, and if you're in between two shades, the brand recommends going with the darker option. To use, just sprinkle over the desired area and pat it in — you can also hit it with some hairspray for an extra secure hold. It'll wash out with your next shampoo. 

I personally am OBSESSED with this stuff for covering the bald spot my thirties have so graciously gifted me. It is so simple to sprinkle into any thinning areas (yes, even by yourself! Though I typically hold up a hand mirror behind my head while looking in another mirror to get a better idea of where to aim the container). I've never had any issues with it fading or sweating off, though I do typically do a super light spritz of hairspray just in case.

Promising reviews: "I have thinning hair due to a number of medical issues (thyroid, chemo), with the majority of bald/thin spots at the crown. The color match was perfect and it's very easy to apply to the bare spots. It sprinkles on easily and covers wonderfully. I pat it into place and finish with hairspray and I'm good to go." —mozart8

"I have AA 4c hair that I recently cut super short. When it was long, my thin spots around the hairline were concealed. So, with my hair short, they were apparent and made me self-conscious. I purchased Boldify with just a little skepticism. I am so glad I purchased it. The application is easy and does not stain clothing. Be careful not to scratch your head throughout the day because you will see the dark coloring under your fingernails. It is a large bottle for the price. I will continue to buy and recommend." —Jza Jza

Get it from Amazon for $14.80+ (available in four sizes and a two-pack, and in 11 colors).

Although, gray hair is honestly pretty fierce, so feel free to let those silvery strands shine!

Promising reviews: "This product is awesome. Covers the grays/roots. Stays on all day. Also, if you have thin hair, it will fill in the spots nicely. Comes with a sponge that you unscrew off the bottom. This will last a very long time. This is much easier to use than the spray that doesn't always get the right spots and tends to get on your clothes. A good selection of colors. Great price. Will re-order when the time comes." —Amazon Customer

"LOVE! so easy to use and perfect for helping my thinned hairline from postpartum hair loss. I tried a more expensive brand and liked this one more. Definitely recommend it for helping the hairline look fuller. I toss it in my makeup bag and apply quickly." —Catie B.

Get it from Amazon for $17.95 (available in two sizes and 14 colors).

Promising review: "I am in love with the texture and have been looking for an alternative to wear to bed. These are no show, and very comfortable. The design is actually very cute and doesn’t make you feel like you are wearing something bulky! Very happy!" —Hannah Brantly 

Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in women's sizes XXS–5XL). 

Promising review: "This stuff really is awesome. It really works, and I don't know where it has been all my life. I started looking for something for thigh chafing after running into a few issues (not fun). It is super easy to use; just slide it on like you'd use deodorant." —SweetPea

BodyGlide is a small business that specializes in chafe-preventing personal care products.

Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in five sizes; also available in an anti-blister balm).

Promising review: "I bought these because I ride a bicycle and also work in an office, and if I have to run an errand at lunchtime, I'll get so sweaty.... ewww. The wipes are just big enough that one wipe can clean up your upper body, even stinky armpits, and leave you feeling fresh and surprisingly clean. The scent is also quite pleasant — not overwhelmingly lavender. It's nice that they're wrapped individually — I can just stick one in a pocket and run to the bathroom at the office, without carrying a whole bunch of stuff. It's discrete, and it also works really well. They don't leave behind any weird sticky residue." —JSRose

Get a pack of 10 from Amazon for $12.99.

Read more about how biotin shampoo could help with the fullness of hair at Cleveland Clinic.

Promising review: "I love this shampoo! I had gastric sleeve surgery, and my hair was very, very thin. I started taking biotin and switched to biotin shampoo, as recommended by my doctor. It doesn’t make your hair grow by washing it, but it makes your hair and roots stronger. And it worked. After using the whole bottle, my hair was stronger. I had a lot of new growth that was sticking around (the previous new growth fell out early on), and my hair was getting thicker. Eight months later, my hair is back to normal. It's longer and thicker than ever." —Diane J. Huff

Maple Holistics is a small business that specializes in beauty products with all-natural ingredients. Check out a TikTok of the biotin shampoo in action. 

Get it from Amazon for $13.46+ (available in four sizes and eight scents).

Psst — reviewers mention this is most effective when paired with a scalp massager to work it into their roots! 

Promising review: "I was honestly skeptical about buying these. My son (15 months) is too little for Benadryl or any anti-itch cream, so I bought them for our upcoming camping trip to try. Little did I know, they would come in handy sooner! My son got bitten by a mosquito near his eye. This caused major swelling and irritation. As mentioned, he’s too little for medicine. I put a patch on, and the results speak for themselves. I’m amazed, and they helped my son not scratch the area. They’re so little and super sticky, he doesn’t even notice it’s on. I added a photo of the patch about five hours after application, and you can see how full it is. I will definitely be purchasing again!" —Sierra

Quitch is a small business founded by moms. Learn more about these patches on TikTok. 

Get a 27-pack from Amazon for $9.95+ (also available in packs of 36 and 81).

Though this is designed to help protect your hair from UV rays, it is not an SPF sunscreen. A UV hair-protectant can help stop color fading and protect the keratin proteins, while SPF sunscreens are meant to help protect the skin. So, if you're looking for something that can also protect your scalp, consider opting for an SPF scalp mist, like this popular option from Sun Bum.

Promising review: "This is such a great idea to have for hair during the summer or even living in a warmer climate. I put it in mine and my three girls' hair today before the pool, and hair felt great after washing. Highly recommend." —Alyssa Speaker

Note: These are best used on less humid days so the water can evaporate properly (which is how the cooling magic works!)

Promising review: "It gets to be over 100 degrees in the summer where I live. These come in handy when working in the yard, at the beach or even at the county fair when it's super hot. What a relief these are to use when the weather is hot. I've purchased these many times because I always seem to give them out especially to those that work outside in the heat (mail carrier, pool guy, landscaper...) and they are always very appreciative." —Realfoodmama

Get a set of four from Amazon for $11.89+ (available in 10 color sets).

Promising reviews: "Better than Brazilian Bum Bum! It works! Smells great! Non-greasy and sinks right in. I was conflicted about writing this review because I don’t want it to sell out!" —smg

"I’m a sensitive skin girlie, and I love the whole coconut line from Palmer's, but I especially love this cream! I have used the original Bum Bum Cream, but it broke me out in a rash, so I couldn’t use it. This is better than the Bum Bum Cream for me. First, the scent is divine and tropical-smelling, but not overpowering, which I appreciate. The texture is nice and thick, and it absorbs well onto my skin. It does seem to have a little shimmer to it, but it’s barely noticeable, and I actually like it! This didn’t break me out or give my sensitive skin any rash, just leaves your legs looking flawless all day! Definitely worth it! Definitely recommend, it’s my new favorite moisturizer." —Francesca

Promising review: "I am shocked by how pretty it is and how good it smells. Also, great price and great quality. It’s not too greasy, just really nicely moisturizing :)." —Faith Bremmer 

Promising review: "Been using this for about a month. I run and go to the gym so there is lots of use of my sneakers five to six times a week. I remove the insoles and spray those, then spray inside the sneakers. I like the scent, kind of minty, and it kills any odors immediately." —Lisa S

Promising review for the Collage Peptide formula: "WHERE has this been all my life?! I have AT LEAST 15 misters of Swiss Alp water, rose, aloe, serum, and toner mists, BUT this is unlike ANY of them! This is not watery and does look like a pretty solid gel in the bottle, but sprays on quite fine, then provides a skin barrier, and you do glow for a few hours. You look hydrated, and I thought I would be able to 'feel' it on like a mask, but even when you touch it, it does not have a film, nor does it flake or roll off. Think of it as a setting spray with a sheen to it — not totally noticeable and fake looking though — GLOW all day." —LeeLoo

Get it from Amazon for $16.99 for Collagen Peptide and $16.99 for Cavair PDRN.

Promising review: "I was skeptical at first, but holy crap after barely a week of using and it's the first time in a while my razor bumps are gone! I've struggled with this forever, and this is the only thing that has helped so far!" —Hailee A.

The formula is aluminum-free, so it won't stop sweat, but the tapioca powder can help absorb it.

Promising review: "This stuff is 5–10 times better than regular powder! It instantly soothes irritation, deodorizes after a shower, and quiets the chafe after long sessions on the treadmill. I can't recommend it enough! Stop buying/using Gold Bond and other similar powders, and start using this. I'll be buying two more tubes in the near future." —Devin G.

Happy Nuts is a small business specializing in grooming products.

Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in the original sandalwood zest scent or unscented, and packs of two and three).

It's way less wasteful and easier to carry around than a pack of oil blotting sheets — just pop out the stone roller to give a quick wash before reusing!

Promising review: "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 backordered 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." —Kelsey B.

The fan has three speeds to choose from, and the battery lasts between 4 and 16 hours, depending on which speed you choose.

Promising reviews: "Perfect for anyone dealing with menopause/perimenopause and the terrible hot flashes that come along. It’s fairly quiet, although I will say if you have it on high and are on the phone, you may have the person on the other line ask if you’re in a wind tunnel lol. My favorite thing about these is that they run even while charging!" —Al

"This fan is so lightweight and effective, I wear it everywhere, even to sleep. It’s the best white noise, and with a little breeze, I fall asleep instantly. Has three speeds, but I mostly just need the lowest unless I’m out playing pickleball in the sun. It’s so comfortable and lightweight you won’t even notice it’s there. I just ordered a second one so I can have one charged at all times, but the charge does last a long time!" —Real Hero
