The Recommendation

June 23, 2026

Hello! We’ve rounded up a dozen exciting deals from across the internet, including:

12 great deals (from Prime Day and beyond)

We’re in the thick of Prime Day. Which is to say we’ve been up since the wee hours of the morning scouring the internet for actually good deals, from mattresses and moisturizers to headphones and handheld vacuums. Of the relatively few that have met our deals experts’ exacting standards, we’ve handpicked the ones that are really speaking to us today:

  • Our top-pick spot treatment is powerful enough to work on everything from blood stains to grease to coffee spills.
  • Gifts writer Samantha Schoech credits this luxe salt scrub shampoo — and its thick, whipped buttercream texture — with alleviating her dry, flaky scalp.
  • A far cry from the weak beam of your smartphone: This tiny-yet-mighty flashlight is waterproof and has a range of brightness settings.
  • Newsletters editor Isoke Samuel already owns this spacious, vintage-inspired Coach bucket bag in green. It’s served her so well that she’s seriously considering nabbing the on-sale black version, too.
  • Our favorite immersion blender can purée, whip, emulsify, and chop — a culinary magic wand of sorts.
  • Three ways our testers have described this lightweight, satiny lipstick: “glossy,” “glassy,” and having “mirrorball vibes.”
  • Many consider this disaffected duck lamp to be Wirecutter’s unofficial mascot. It doesn’t just illuminate dark rooms, it can also prop up your phone — and it looks silly (in a good way) lazing on a desk.
  • One of the lightest pieces of luggage we’ve ever tested.
  • Equally important as slathering SPF every morning is reapplying throughout the day. Might we suggest this clear sunscreen stick that glides easily across skin?
  • For a theater-like experience at home, this soundbar system offers much of the “sonic excitement” of full surround-sound but is much simpler to set up.
  • This toiletry bag is an organizational wonder with nine pockets, two mesh pouches, and five elastic loops for keeping your makeup and skin care upright.
  • The most satisfying bidet we’ve ever rinsed our tushies with.

One last thing: “Absurdly soft” (and on-sale) Mary Janes

Tory Burch Mary Jane Ballet in the color Dark Cocoa.

Our style team loves this sleek pair of Mary Jane flats, which they describe as being comfy and blister-free right out of the box. When we saw that the brown suede version was more than 50% off (!!) today, our newsletter team Slack channel lit up, too.

“I have yet to find an outfit that these Mary Janes don’t complement”→
