1. A pair of polarized sunglasses that'll protect your eyes from harmful UV rays. These come in a stylish hexagonal frame shape that's trendy, but classic enough to go with any look.
2. An airy printed dress that'll make you want to take a ton of full-length selfies. These come in floral and paisley designs, and a ventilated cut that's perfect for an afternoon walk or just lounging at home. Time to soak up all the sun!
3. A tube of Neutrogena Hydroboost sunscreen that won't leave a white cast on your skin (despite being SPF50). It has a gel-like texture that doesn't simply sit on the skin, but blends in to give you a natural flushed glow.
4. A frozen dessert maker that'll have you whipping up ice cream, frozen yogurt, and sorbets all summer long. The best part? You control everything that goes into your dessert! Throw in fresh fruit, use a vanilla custard base, spice things up with matcha, or enjoy a coffee-cocoa twist. Toodles, store-bought stuff!
5. Or some classic ice pop moulds that'll help you take advantage of fresh summer fruits. Make a bunch of fruit creamsicles for the kids or just make some spiked ice pops for yourself for a more grown-up hit of nostalgia.
6. A draft blocker to stick to the bottom of your door to ensure the coolness from your air conditioner stays in. Reviewers say it even worked for minimizing noise coming into the room, so if you have loud roommates or a pet who loves singing the song of their people at 4 a.m., you know what to do!
7. Some bamboo charcoal air-purifying bags that absorb odour and moisture, so your closet or car won't smell like a sweat-soaked gym bag. They come in three different shapes and sizes, so you can leave a couple in your shoes, too, if it's Stinky Town up in there.
8. A supply of thirst-quenching coconut water that'll cool you off on a blazing hot day and provide the electrolytes you need to power through it. Each carton has a half a litre of this refreshing beverage extracted ethically from the most tender coconuts. You can sip it on its own or use it in a smoothie — it's great in basically every way.
9. A reversible memory foam pillow with a layer of cooling gel on one side, so you aren't flipping your pillow in the middle of an extra-warm night. The other side is soft memory foam that'll cradle your head on cooler nights, so you can use this bad boy all year long.
10. A USB-powered desk fan that'll make working from home during hotter days a breeze. Whether you're in your office or working from the balcony, simply plug it into your laptop or power bank and help yourself avoid a case of the heat cranks.
11. A hair serum that'll eliminate frizz caused by heat and humidity. No matter what your hair texture is, you can rock it sleek 'n' sexy or soft 'n' tousled. All you have to do is massage it into damp hair to lock in moisture and tame flyaways.
12. And a simple hair tool so you can try something other than a messy bun to keep your hair up and beat the heat. This can transform an ordinary ponytail into something more sophisticated and can be used to quickly create a number of neat hairstyles that would take a long time (and sore arms) to create otherwise.
13. A bestselling bartender kit that'll make you want to mix margaritas and shake up cocktails at home. The stainless steel tools come with their own eco-friendly bamboo stand, so you can show off your skills to your roomie or partner in style.
14. A salad cutter, because warm meals can get overwhelming every day. This tool will make short work of making a delicious and nutritious cold lunch. Simply put your favourite greens and veggies into a bowl and use the rolling cutter to chop them into big or small chunks. It only takes a few minutes and you won't need to wash your cutting board and knife later, either! You can even make a vitamin-packed fruit salad, when the mood strikes.
15. Some granite cubes that'll help keep your cold drinks frosty for longer. Unlike regular ice cubes, these hold the chill and don't melt into your beverage, diluting its taste. So if you've got some white wine or beer you forgot to put in the fridge, these have you covered! Pop open an afternoon drink on your patio.
16. A silicone facial cleansing brush that'll work hard to remove all the sweat, sebum, and dirt that's settled into your pores. It performs exactly the same as the expensive ones, TBH. This vibrating tool is rechargeable and waterproof, so feel free to use it in the shower to give your face or body and thorough cleanse.
17. An Instant Pot that'll cook your meals for you, without heating up your entire kitchen and making you break a sweat. Load up with ingredients of your choice at night or in the morning, and have tender and delicious food prepared by lunch. It can pressure cook, sauté, slow cook, boil rice, steam veggies, and warm up food, so it's perfect for meal preppers!
18. A jade roller or a Gua Sha stone you can chill in the fridge and use on your skin to prevent and soothe heat-related breakouts. It also helps drain fluid from your face and de-puff it, so it's a no-brainer for any skincare lover.
19. A cooling mat that'll keep your fur baby from overheating and help them sleep comfortably, even when the weather is scorching hot. It's made of 100% pet-safe materials and over 1,500 reviewers say their furry friend loves it.
20. A lip balm value pack that'll keep the whole family's pout chap free. These organic balms are made from natural ingredients, and come in six exciting flavours — Mint Burst, Citrus, Beeswax, Eucalyptus Mint, Vanilla, and Coconut.
21. An exfoliating scrub that smells like juicy apricots and can be used on both your face and body. I love using mine to scrub down my legs (especially before a shave) because it gets rid of all the dead skin cells and swear residue and leaves them baby soft. Plus, it's super affordable!
22. A classic dry shampoo for anyone whose scalp gets greasy too quickly in the summertime. This vegan-friendly formula is the bestselling dry shampoo in the world! It absorbs oil from your roots, without weighing your hair down, and leaves your mane looking and smelling fresh, so you won't have to wash your hair every single day.
23. A natural deodorant that'll keep you smelling nice all day long. It has an award-winning formula that melts into the skin with your body heat and neutralizes odours. Reviewers say it's great for heavy sweaters!
24. And lastly, an anti-chafe balm stick that's a blessing for anyone prone to friction and heat rash caused by sweat. Make inflamed, sore inner thighs a thing of the past and go for that morning run!
