1. A petite personal air conditioner for anyone who isn't happy unless there's a stream of cold air pointed directly at them 24/7. Its compact size and whisper-quiet motor means you can prop it up on your bedside table on those blistering nights when your sheets are sticking to you.
2. A cooling mat to protect your pets from the sweltering heat while you're hanging out in the blazing sun. It's self-cooling, so you won't even need to make room in your freezer to store it.
3. And a portable water bowl that'll allow your fur baby to rehydrate while you're on a hike or tearing it up at the dog park. The water dispenses into a handy built-in bowl, meaning it'll be easy for them to drink on the go.
4. A splash pad for anyone who doesn't have the luxury of a swimming pool in their backyard. The top is made of a non-slip material that'll keep kids from sliding around while they play (and it's durable enough for your pup to enjoy, too).
5. Or an adult-size inflatable pool if you don't need a deep end and just want something refreshing to lounge in. You can plug your hose directly into it to activate the sprinkler function for added fun.
6. An anti-chafing stick that'll prevent you from getting the dreaded discomfort caused by the combo of heat and friction. It’ll create a soothing barrier wherever your skin tends to rub together, so you’ll stay comfortable throughout the summer.
7. Or a pack of cotton bike shorts to wear under all of your sundresses. They're breathable, so everything will stay breezy down there. They'll also save you from any Marilyn moments if a gust of wind catches you by surprise.
8. A silicone popsicle mould that'll turn your favourite beverage into a refreshing treat. Chill yogurt, juice, or your signature cocktail into your own icy confections or freeze some water and fruit for an easy kid-friendly treat.
9. And a pack of four of paw-fect silicone treat moulds to make your pooch an ice-cold pupscile. Freeze plain ol' water for a quick treat or you can get creative with dog-safe smoothie recipes if you really want to spoil your pup.
10. A portable neck fan if you want to go hands-free. It'll point directly up at your face and the back of your neck to keep you from succumbing to the soaring temps. Reviewers say the all-around airflow cools them down faster than other traditional neck fans that only concentrate the air on your face.
11. Or a handheld fan so you'll never be far from a refreshing burst of air. It'll fit in your bag and the handle even folds down so you can use it as a mini tabletop fan (perfect for your desk in your stuffy office).
12. An ice roller that'll cool you down when you're feeling toasty. It’ll also help ease the pain of headaches and migraines when the ibuprofen just ain’t cutting it.
13. A pack of adhesive sweat pads that'll soak up any excess perspiration from your underarms. Say goodbye to visibly sweating in fancy clothes or yellow stains on your favourite white tee.
14. A cooling mattress cover to help keep your bed from becoming a sauna as you slumber. Reviewers say it's really comfortable and they love that it helps keep their fitted sheets from sliding off the corners— bonus!
15. And a cooling blanket that'll drop the temp in your bed to a comfortable level on hot and humid nights. It's lightweight, making it perfect if you're a frequent night sweater who refuses to sleep without a blanket (it me).
16. A Dash shaved ice maker so you can have a snow cone or slushie without having to wait for the ice cream truck to drive by. You can use syrup, juice, or even different cocktails to customize your treat. The possibilities are endless!
17. An instant drink chiller that'll cool down any drink you forgot to pop in the fridge in a flash (60 seconds, to be exact). It'll chill any beveragino you want, whether it's iced tea or vino, so you have something ice-cold to sip on ASAP.
18. A cooling bamboo towel that'll send instant shivers down your spine (in the best way). Just soak it in water and apply the towel to your forehead or the back of your neck. It even comes with a little bottle to carry it in, making it easy to tote around.
19. A pair of cold therapy socks that'll give you the good kind of cold feet. Reviewers say that they're great if your tootsies get hot at night and that wearing them beats sleeping with your feet outside of the covers (where the monsters are).
20. A cooling facial spray that'll hydrate, tone, and re-energize your skin when you're feeling hot. It's got aloe, cucumber, and green tea to help gently calm any irritated or warm skin.
21. An entire scrunchie collection to keep your hair out of your face and off of your neck on days where it's too hot to function. They're made of satin so they're safe for all hair types, and they won’t tug on your tresses or cause breakage.
22. A jumbo motivational water bottle so you can make sure you're staying hydrated while you're sweating up a storm in the sun. It has a handle that makes it easy to hold onto or attach to your bag on a hike.
23. And finally, a pack of blotting papers that'll soak up any extra sweat and oil from your face. Now you won’t be stuck with a shiny face for your next date, job interview, or fancy-schmancy event.
