Updated 5:30am ET June 24: We've added new discounted picks from D-Line and Celsius.
This is one of WIRED editor Kat Merck’s top handheld fan picks. It's small (and cheap) but mighty, with two blades that produce a strong breeze at 472 feet per minute and a quiet noise level (44 dB on low), and it’s lightweight at only 4 ounces. Plus, it's basically a camping or outdoor adventure Swiss Army knife, doubling as a flashlight and portable power bank. At only $12, you'll be happy you carried this during your next summer adventure.
Every winter, my lips looked like sad, shriveled worms that had been left out to dry on the sidewalk after a rainstorm. Even after religiously applying lip balm every hour, my lips would get cracked and flaky without fail every winter. That is, until I discovered this lip mask from Laneige. I absolutely love Langeige's stuff, but it's often much pricier than I'm willing to pay for a luxe lip balm or facial lotion. You leave this thick mask of murumuru butter and vitamin C on while you sleep for smooth lips come morning. Right now it's on sale for $17, which is the lowest we've ever seen it.
Whether you want to sleep soundly or save your eardrums during the next concert you attend, we recommend everyone have a few earplugs on hand to block out the noise. We love these earplugs from Loop because they’re squishy, soft, and malleable to any type of ear shape. Plus, we love the shape of these silicone earplugs. They fit snugly in your ear and entirely flush with your head, making them the most comfortable earplugs for sleeping. They come with four different sized washable ear tips in a few colorways to match any fit.
If you're going on a trip and realize that you may need more organization, it's hard to beat a six-pack of Bagsmart's basic packing cubes. We appreciate the compression feature that packs the most into a tight space, the higher-end looks, the fine-mesh front cover for spotting contents at a glance, and convenient label windows to keep your set organized. Plus, Bagsmart offers 25 color and pattern options so you can keep things fly while you fly with color-coordinated luggage.
If your pet likes drinking from the faucet, this is the automatic pet fountain for you. I recommend every cat owner get a pet water fountain, as most cats struggle to consume enough water, which leads to potentially lethal UTIs and blockages, especially in male cats. Plus, cats see stagnant water as potentially harmful because, in the wild, unmoving water is prone to bacteria. So, cats are naturally more drawn to moving water, and a fountain like this encourages them to drink more. Although this fountain is cheap, it has pretty much everything I look for in a fountain: It works either battery-powered on a charge for cordless placement anywhere (for up to 30 days), or plugged in. It also has dual flow modes, continuous or intermittent, a wireless pump for easy cleaning, and a stackable design that simplifies setup, cleaning, and changing the filter. On sale for only $22, now's a great time to see if a fountain works for your pet.
This is the pet camera we recommend for most people. It dispenses treats and has two-way audio and 360-degree panning abilities so you can see the whole roo
