    37 Must-Have Products That Are Basically The Embodiment Of Sunshine

    If you want to make like Sheryl Crow and ~soak up the sun~, this TikTok-beloved, caffeine-infused "sunshine" body cream will do the trick.

    1. Brazilian Bum Bum Cream, a cult-favorite moisturizing body lotion infused with caffeine, guarana extract, and coconut oil to simultaneously tighten *and* smooth skin. Reviewers are also obsessed with the soothing "sunshine" smell (with some replacing their perfume with it altogether!).

    Get it from Amazon for $22.

    2. A family-friendly inflatable backyard pool, because you deserve to feel the majesty of floating in a peaceful watery abyss the *literal moment* it's warm enough outside to do so. Reviewers especially love that this is wide enough to enjoy, but compact enough to work for small backyards. Bonus: it comes with a built-in seat!

    Promising review: "Good size. I'm 5'4" and I bought it for my 3-year-old and 2-year-old for the spring and summer. I didn't need anything huge; I have a nice size deck and we spend a lot of time on the deck so I wanted something big enough for them to have some wiggle room to keep cool but not too big so it wouldn't take up to much room. I also purchased an outdoor grass rug to put it on to protect the bottom of it and keep it from getting splinters (just a suggestion if you plan on using on the deck). It has a drain plug so cleaning and getting fresh water is not hard at all."Majestic 0220

    Get it from Amazon for $39.26+ (available with and without a pump).

    3. A set of energy-restoring shower steamers for days when you wake up and you just can't even. These are made with grapefruit, cocoa orange, and citrus essential oils to give you a quick jolt *much* more relaxing than that rude alarm clock of yours.

    Promising review: "So comfy, so worth it. I have been eyeing these slippers for some time and finally ordered them. When they arrived, they were in a vacuum sealed bag and I was concerned and confused because they felt so hard. As soon as I removed them from the packaging, they fluffed up and felt sooo comfortable. They’re soft and feel great especially with the rubber sole!" —Natasha

    Promising review: "This dress is REALLY pretty in person. I like it a lot. I don't think there is any way to wear a bra with it but the material is thick enough that it's not necessary. The back is really beautiful. You must tie it right to get it to lay flat." —Connor McKay

    Promising review: "I love these overall/bibs! They have a chord to nip in at the waist and the legs taper but they also blouse out accentuating my figure. They are very comfortable as well and the fabric is high quality with quality stitching. For the price they can’t be beat. I’ll definitely look at buying from Yesno again!" —TCB & JLUX

    Promising review: "OMG! I love this guy! These things large and small will ALWAYS make me laugh. My husband bought the desk version for me and I can always count on it to make me laugh. My co-workers love it too. People just stop by to turn him on for a quick pick-me-up. I would recommend getting the AC plug since batteries can run down fast. I think we should create a community of fellow air-dancer-havers and post clips of our little guys dancing to our favorite songs. Anyone in?" —Mark

    Cirque Colors is a small Brooklyn-based business specializing in handmade nail polish and nail accessories. 

    Promising review: "My favorite nail polish. I was iffy when I first put it on, it seemed an awkward consistency for nail polish...but I was happily surprised. It is matte and dries super fast and after two coats and 10 minutes they were done. I was going to put topcoat over them for a glossier finish, but I ultimately just left them matte. It goes on and dries beautifully, it changes to purple in cold temperatures, and it DOES NOT CHIP OR PEEL like many thermal nail polishes. I washed dishes, gardened, cleaned, and even without topcoat my nails still look perfect. I will definitely be buying more, they're worth the price." —Samantha Martin

    Get it from Amazon for $16.50 (available in eight colors).

    A reviewer with a sparkly hand showing how the glitter reflects in the light

    Promising review: "I have used this product for almost a year now. I use it on my hair and body. It makes everything smell good and everything sparkle. I use it when I have a work shift, and girls night out, a trip to the pool. I do have blonde hair so I have to spray more than my friends with darker hair for it to show up. But hands down smells amazing, and the glitter is so cute." —Avery linhart

    Get it from Amazon for $9.97+ (available in four shades).

    I own a pair of these that I legit waited TWO MONTHS for the summer Free People started making them (that's how in demand they were, WOOF), but it was worth the wait. They're so comfy and easy to move in, and so lightweight I practically don't feel them when I'm wearing them. And I'm such a sucker for the bright, bright colors they come in. Plus a $30 price point at Free People??? Sign me the heck up. 

    Promising review: "I usually buy all of my authentic wear from Lululemon, but I saw these shorts on TikTok and had to try them on! I bought a bright green pair and the grey. I will ABSOLUTELY be buying these in every color! They are so comfortable and are the perfect length/fit. Highly recommend purchasing these. They are a great price as well. :)" —Callieend

    23. A set of pastel highlighters perfect for everything from studying to marking up your favorite quotes in books — not only are these adorable, but the soft colors are *much* less harsh on your eyeballs. 

    Promising review: "My obsession with these highlighters can not be understated. The pastel shades are ridiculously cute, and pretty. The thickness and shape of the body makes for a unique in-hand experience. The thick tip that leaks a heavy stream of ink as I drag it across a meaningful sentence or two sends a delightful tingle down my spine. It usually comes after I let out a little squeal of joy at a sentence that was so good only a highlighter would suffice to record the memory of when we first meet. #nerdproblems." —Xena Grace

    Promising review: "These are cute colors. I bought these for my 12-year-old daughter because everybody was wearing them on TikTok. She has long length hair that is medium thickness and it holds it in an updo just fine. These are sturdier plastic and not made of the typical clear fragile kind." —Mamamia28

    Get a set of eight from Amazon for $13.99

    26. A shaker of salt and vinegar seasoning so you can get all that puckery salty goodness *without* sacrificing crunch. Reviewers love using this for everything from chips to baked potatoes to fried chicken to veggies, and mention that since it packs a punch it lasts a while and is def worth the investment. 

    Promising review: "Always loved salt and vinegar, and this is a great way I can satisfy a craving without necessarily having to buy a pricey bag of chips. Another reviewer said that this particular product was pretty tangy and not sweet like some other brands — I can’t speak to other products, but this stuff is definitely tangy and doesn’t really have any sweetness to it. The consistency is almost like powdered sugar, which is great because it sticks to almost anything. The flavor reminds me almost exactly of Lay’s S&V chips — it’s more of a white vinegar than a malt vinegar (more like Kettle brand or British S&V chips). Def will buy this again." —WJ

    Get it from Amazon for $11.40 (and check out some other fun seasonings like sour cream and onion and wild buffalo for more options!).
