    38 Practical Products To Buy Before Spring Arrives

    Because if you prepare now, you can have more fun later.

    1. A padded tank top perfect for some springtime layering! Toss a chambray over it once you're done with your morning jog and you'll be ready for brunch with your crew.

    Promising review: "I love these bras! I’m not a fan of the razorback style sports bras. The pads in these also stay in place and don’t fold up in the washer which is also a huge plus! These are so comfortable, I have bought more than one!" —Meredith Scarbrough

    Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in women's sizes S–XXL and in 20 colors).

    2. Burt's Bees sunburn relief lotion formulated with coconut, aloe, and antioxidants to help soothe and hydrate your skin post sun exposure. No need to be afraid of the sun with this by your side!

    Promising review: "I’m happy to say this product works! I purchased this product due to my inability to provide my skin with appropriate sun protection one day this summer. I proceeded to spend a night wishing that I could safely freeze myself into an ice cube. Midnight discomfort lead me to this product. The initial use was a day or two after the day of regret, but it eased the discomfort and moisturized my reddened skin, helping to soften the leather layer I had started to form. Of course this review would not be complete without me faulting myself a second time. Two times in one summer I proved my inability to adult well. I applied this lotion the MINUTE I realized that I had experienced another exposure to the sun for too long a period. To my absolute joy, this product relieved my discomfort. It left a layer that stayed cool for a few hours (at which time I reapplied it), it was a little tacky to the touch (not sticky or oily), and my skin did not experience the crocodile and subsequent peeling experience it had earlier in the season. The scent is soft and not overpowering. I have experienced skin sensitivity in the past to products, but I had no issues with Burt’s Bees products. Thank you for providing me with such a helpful product." —Meghan

    3. A flexible adjustable mister so you can bend it in the perfect direction and shape to make sure you and your guests get some targeted lovin' when hanging outside.

    The mister will cool the surrounding area by 20 degrees, and it comes with an interchangeable flower-shaped misting head for a fun, whimsy detail.

    Promising review: "Works exactly how I want it to. Provides a fine, cool mist on the patio, allowing us to enjoy the backyard until sunset without breaking a sweat. Easy to set up. It was out of the box and cooling us off within minutes." —Debra L. Kusek

    Get it from Amazon for $32.63.

    4. A Scumbug sponge you can plop into your pool or hot tub to soak up scum, slime, and grime, so you can enjoy your little dips in paradise this spring.

    Promising review: "Scummy water bugging you? I just got this gem of a product last night. Popped it into my hot tub and from the picture I attached, you can see that in just about 12 hours, this little Scumbug ate up all the oil and filth in the hot tub. The water not only looks better, but smells better too! Highly recommended!" —Mickey D.

    Get a two-pack from Amazon for $14.99.

    5. A vegan and paraben-free self-tanner if you simply won't have the time to lay in the sun to get the glow you deserve. Get the tan of your dreams in just an hour!

    Promising review: “If you use St. Tropez tan products or any fake tanner, do yourself a favor and try this. This stuff is AWESOME. Dries quick, lasts longer, does NOT make your skin stinky, applies evenly, and you get a fair amount of product!! Other tanners I’ve used become VERY noticeable when they start fading. Gross hand lines, patchy white spots, etc., but not this stuff. The best one-hour tan I have ever used!” —Amazon Customer 

    Get it from Amazon for $7.49+ (available in nine shades).

    6. A bug bite suction tool for mosquito bite relief if you're excited for tank tops and short shorts but not the fact that you'll be exposed to some nasty bloodsuckers. It pretty much sucks the irritant out from under your skin so you can live an itch-free life.

    Promising review: "I am a magnet for bites of all kinds and carry topical and medicines with me at all times, so I figured this would be a good product to see if it really works. It arrived Monday and Tuesday morning I woke up with a bug bite on my arm, so I used this little tool (three times per the instructions) and immediately after use, it stopped itching! And less than 24 hours later the bite gone! There is a very faint red mark from using the thing but a small price to pay IMO. Bottom line: it’s awesome. I’m carrying it with me everywhere!" —Rebecca

    Get it from Amazon for $9.90+ (available in four colors).

    7. And high-voltage bug zapper because being outside is supposed to be fun, not a battle against the bloodsuckers. This will also get at those annoying gnats, moths, and flies zooming around.

    Promising review: "You will not be disappointed. I just moved out to the country and have been working out in the garage late at night. With the weather getting warmer, I've had the garage doors opened and mosquitos, gnats, and everything else have been finding their way into my garage, so I had to do something about it. I bought this and hung it next to my garage door opener because there's an outlet there and it is way better than expected. I have dead bees, stink bugs, gnats, mosquitoes, and other bugs that I do not know what they are. My 8-year-old son keeps asking me to remove the bottom tray so he can see all of the dead bugs that got zapped. Again, you will not be disappointed, I'm extremely happy I bought this!" —Chris & Jenny

    Get it from Amazon for $33.99.

    8. Soft chew allergy supplements that'll help your itchy pup stop scratching due to skin, seasonal, or environmental allergy issues. They're also rich with vitamins, antioxidants, and probiotics to support digestion and immunity.

    Promising review: "My 8-year-old shepherd is allergic to everything! He was diagnosed with discoid lupus on nose, which caused dry, crusty scabs inside his nose. I tried many options, natural and chemical to no avail. I saw this product and bought it. Within two weeks, his scabs, crust and dryness were going away! After a month, the pigment on his nose was even returning to its normal black color! This product is amazing! His allergies are improving! Buy this product, you won't be disappointed! My big boy is so much happier now! Thank you so much Zesty Paws for such a great product!" —Shepherd Mom 2

    Get 90 chews from Amazon for $19.97+ (available in five styles).

    9. A CeraVe body wash with salicylic acid and ceramides to help you deal with any "chicken skin" flare-ups caused by the warmer weather. This will exfoliate your skin and leave it feeling moisturized!

    Promising review: "My 6-year-old daughter has keratosis pilaris, commonly known as 'chicken skin.' This year it really flared up during warm weather so I gave this wash along with lotion a try. Wow, I saw results after just a few uses and after a couple of weeks most of her bumps disappeared. Thrilled we skipped a trip to the dermatologist! Can’t beat this price for the results either." —Ashley Steigerwald

    Get it from Amazon for $13.99.

    10. A set of adjustable clip holders for help hiding your bra straps when you're wearing your favorite racer-back shirt. Just attach one of these to each bra strap to render them practically invisible!

    Promising review: "I LOVE this item! So much so that I ordered a second set. They work very well and the quality is great! They are also very comfortable to wear and you can attach them to your bra before putting your bra on, so you're not depending on someone else to help you get dressed. And very economical, a great value. All in all, very satisfied!" —Kay

    Get a set of three from Amazon for $6.97+ (available in eight color combinations and in a five-pack).

    11. A pet hair remover so you'll be able to reclaim your couch from the mob of fur that's been plaguing your home this shedding season. And because it doesn't use disposable adhesive strips, you can use this thing over and over and over and over and...

    Promising review: "I am allergic to cats, so here I am with two cats who shed a lot. Their hair is covering all the furniture. I have special pet covers on my bed to protect my comforter but I hate having to sleep under it since my cats sleep on my bed. I have tried so many cat hair remover brushes, gloves, and sponges that never worked. I was ready to shave the cats and call it a day. Then along comes the ChomChom brush. It not only has the lint roller but a bar that collects the hair. I love the little hairball container of the roller so I don't have to spend time cleaning off the lint brush. I can't believe this product works! I have an off-white couch and I didn't realize how much hair there was. After I used it, my couch looked lighter in color. I got my comforter cleaned off in minutes. It's a simple and inexpensive way to cure your pet hair woes." —Dondi

    Get it from Amazon for $25.45.

    12. An all-natural dander-reducing spray if your cat is causing a ton of sneezing in your home by scratching their dry skin and releasing dead flakes into the air. This pH-balanced formula also contains aloe vera and oatmeal to condition your cat's coat and moisturize their skin.

    Promising review: “I am shocked by how well this stuff works! We have an overweight cat that has trouble grooming her back. She was so full of dandruff and greasy fur, I hated petting her, which made me very sad. We took her to the vet, and he thought it was allergies. We tried prednisone for a while, and it was clear she was less itchy, but the dandruff remained. The vet suggested different food. We already feed very high quality food, but she's been eating the same stuff for a long time, so we switched to a different flavor (different ingredients) in the same line, and there was no change. Our poor girl looked miserable. While looking for a shampoo for her, I came across this product and decided to try it before torturing her with a bath. After the first application there was a huge difference! After the second application, her dandruff is GONE. She is so soft and shiny! She finally looks healthy, and feels good to pet.” —Amber Steele

    Get it from Amazon for $6.99.

    13. Allergy relief eye drops because your red and puffy eyes deserve some peace in this allergen-ridden world. Just one drop in each eye is meant to offer you relief for 24 hours!

    Promising review: “I live in the mid-Atlantic region where pollen is bad April through June. Despite having an air purifier, washing my hands regularly, changing and washing my linens regularly, etc., I still struggle with itchy, watery eyes and blurry vision. This eye drop is THE BEST! One drop in each eye is plenty. Best for severe allergies.” —ESB 

    Get a two-pack from Amazon for $24.65.

    14. A pack of two ready-to-use fruit fly traps for luring and killing the fruit flies trying to take over your home. And each trap lasts for up to 45 days!

I have a very round face and a small head and it has been so hard finding a cute sun hat! I really feel like this hat would look great on everyone!" —Michelle

    Get it from Amazon for $25.99 (available in one size and in 22 colors).

    16. An Alexa-compatible 2-in-1 air conditioner that'll help you save on your energy bill *and* save you from heat and humidity. Your room will be comfortably chill in a matter of minutes.

    Promising review: "I don’t usually write product reviews, but I am now because this is one of the best household products I have ever bought. This Midea U-shaped AC is an ingenious design that is basically a split AC system mounted in a window, with the window closing almost all the way through the middle of the unit. The result is a much quieter and more efficient unit, with the noisy part that generates heat on the outside of the closed window. It also looks sleek and modern and the remote control and app are great. I have thought many times 'I wish someone would make a split AC system that can fit in a window without having to install separate units on the roof or wall,' and now they have!" —Ben

    Get it from Amazon for $399+ (available in two sizes).

    17. A jetted tub cleaner scientifically engineered to get all the yuck from soap and body oil buildup out of your tub in 15 minutes! Because the last thing you want to do after a day of sweating it up under the sun is to take a bath in dirty water...

    You run your bath, add the cleaner, watch the gunk emerge, drain your bath, and then clean off the gunk!

    Promising review: "It's disgusting to see what comes out of your jets when you use this product. I can't believe we bathed in this! I've run bleach and dish detergent through my jets before, and that combination never cleaned with this efficiency. I highly recommended this product." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $17.84.

    18. A weed puller with a long handle so you don't have to bend down to fight a weed's tough roots with your bare hands. Get your spring garden in tip-top shape!

    Grampa's Gardenware Co. is a family-owned small business makes products that make the gardening, weeding, or harvesting of your land a little easier.

    Promising review: “Oh my god, I friggin' love this tool. I bought this on a whim given my husband and I bought our first house and know nothing about caring for a yard and boy has it come in handy. Our new house had a ton of weeds in the front yard and this tool helped me get most of them out in no time. In fact, the process of yanking out the weed was strangely satisfying! I don't think anyone can say that weeding is fun but this tool made it as close to fun as you can get” —JG 

    Get it from Grampa's Gardenware Co. on Amazon for $39.99.

    19. A soothing Glossier lip balm if your sun-dried lips are screaming for some antioxidant-rich hydration!

    Glossier

    Promising review: "I have eczema all over my mouth and chin area, so I am very, very picky about my lip products. Scented lip products are especially risky for me. However, I have tried Glossier's balms in rose, birthday cake, mint, mango, coconut, berry, and fig and have been generally quite happy. Personally, my favorites are the mint and mango. Both are so refreshing! The scents are not irritating whatsoever. I legit wear these every day." —hlebth

    Get it from Glossier for $14 (available in eight tints/scents).

    20. A lawn repair formula because either your peeing pup or the lack of winter sun has turned your backyard into a barren wasteland. Its special salt neutralizer formula repairs any damage done so you can proudly host the next barbecue.

    Promising review: “We purchased this to fill some patches in our backyard that were damaged by our puppy. This seed works like a charm. The one caveat is that you really do have to water it a bit every day. Once it takes off though, it grows pretty quickly! Within one week of planting this, we had 1-inch long grass blades. One month later, all the patches are gone. Highly recommended!” —Jessica N.

    Get it from Amazon for $16+ (available in five sizes).

    21. A gel callus remover you just let your feet sit in for 5–10 minutes for silky, smooth skin ready for sandal weather. Why get a pedicure at a salon when you can get the same quality at a fraction of the price *at home*?

    Promising review: “I take very good care of my 67-year-old feet. Always have cause I am a distance walker and biker. Yet summer sandal weather in Texas had them looking and feeling less than baby-pink and soft. For me it took only three minutes on the heels and ball of my foot, with a bit on the outside edge of big toe. But WOW, this really worked. In 10 minutes total, I am soft and super smooth and good to go!” —C. brown

    Get it from Amazon for $13.49.

    22. A nonsticky Etude House SPF 50+ sunscreen with a long-lasting formula that'll help protect your skin if you have to be outdoors.

    Promising review: “I hate putting on sunscreen but since I've just turned 50 I'm trying to protect my skin. Most sunscreens make my skin sticky, leading to breakouts. I like that it is extremely light, almost runny, and thus it's easier to spread and put on. It also gives me great coverage while giving my skin a nice matte feel. Even when I'm outside and sweating my face doesn't get shiny!!” —Ana Chi 

    Get it from Amazon for $12.

    23. A compact air purifier to help get rid of any pollen, smoke, odors, dust, mites, or mold hanging around in your air making it hard to live a sneeze-free life. This sleek purifier will freshen your air in 12 minutes. That's the power of its HEPA filter.

    Promising review: “This thing is a game changer. Ever since moving to Texas, I suffer from terrible seasonal allergies. I never have in my life until now (turns out I'm allergic to a handful of trees that are native around here). For the past few weeks my mornings have had me waking up congested and unable to breathe, blowing wads of snot out of my nose (sorry!) and with an itchy/scratchy sore throat. Then I found this little guy. I woke up this morning with NO allergy symptoms. None. No congestion, absolutely clear nasal passages, and NO sore throat at all! I'm blown away.” —JJ

    Get it from Amazon for $84.99+ (available in two styles and colors).

    24. A pack of four big acrylic hair claws with a trendy matte finish so you can get your hair out of your face and away from your neck when the sun decides to beam down a little too intensely.

    Promising review: “I didn't even think they made these clips anymore! I haven't been able to find them in stores and didn't even think about looking online. Then I just happened upon these and I am SOOOO HAPPY!! I can twist my hair up and snap one of these babies on in seconds and BAM! Instant relief from the heat and it keeps my hair out of my face. All without giving me a tension headache like most clips and ponytail holders do.” —melanie hawkins

    Get it from Amazon for $7.64+ (available in 13 color combinations).

    25. A bottle of Wet & Forget shower cleaner — just because it's time for spring cleaning, doesn't mean you wanna scrub your shower clean. And with this, you won't have to. Just spray it on, wait 8–12 hours, then rinse it off. Super easy!

    after image of the same shower completely clean

    Promising review: “I had a horrible gray ring in the bottom of my shower that was impossible to remove. I tried the Dawn Dish Soap method (with a lot of scrubbing) and toilet bowl cleaner to try to remove the soap scum. My next step was to tear out and replace the shower pan and tile. I figured this was my last chance. I ordered the Wet and Forget Shower Spray and really coated the shower walls and floor pan and walked away. I CANNOT begin to tell you how happy I was to rinse down the walls sometime later and watch all that crud roll right down the drain!! This is the best product I have ever used in my life!! Works great and no toxic fumes!!” —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $19.54+ (available in two scents).

    26. A natural insect repellent spray made using lemongrass, catnip, thyme, lavender, and peppermint essential oils. Not only will you be unappetizing to bugs, but you'll also smell amazing. Win-win!

    Based on a two-acre farm in Oregon, Wild Rose Herbs is a small Etsy shop making natural skincare products, from lip balm to tattoo aftercare products. 

    Promising review: “This is the ONLY insect repellent that I trust on my children and myself. The organic, natural ingredients and the care and attention Wild Rose Herbs puts into everything they create makes this an easy choice. The scent is also really lovely, which is a big plus, and IT REALLY WORKS!” —Elhi33 

    Get it from Wild Rose Herbs on Etsy for $9.95.

    27. Or a pack of insect-repellent wipes that'll work for up to 12 hours! These DEET-free wipes are easy to travel with and safe to use on kids, too.

    BuzzFeed writer Elizabeth Lilly is a fan of these wipes:

    "When I was a kid, someone told me that mosquitoes love me because I'm so sweet. And I FULLY believe that as an adult because I still get eaten alive if I'm out for long periods of time without wearing some kind of repellent. I've used these wipes on several park days here in NYC (sitting on a picnic blanket drinking wine with friends is more or less screaming COME GET ME to skeeters). But I've really found success with them on a recent hot weekend trip to Savannah, Georgia. I don't notice any smell when using them and have found one wipe to have enough repellant for my arms and legs. So basically, a one and done. I don't think that I've gotten *any* bug bites on days I've used these wipes. Plus, I have extremely sensitive skin but haven't had any irritation from these seemingly powerful wipes!"

    Get three packs of 12 wipes from Amazon for $25.47.

    28. An ice roller to help freeze muscle pains right in their tracks! Just pop it in the freezer then roll it over your eyelids, neck, and back for some body ache (or heat) relief.

    Promising review: "I was in the habit of rolling a cold can of soda on my forehead to help with tension headaches and sinus pain, but that was cumbersome and not always cold enough. This ice roller works so well to ease pain from sinuses and tension. It froze very quickly and I felt instant relief. The rolling motion even cleared my sinuses, and I could breathe better right away. I love this. Would highly recommend." —DT

    Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in nine colors).

    29. An anti-blister balm because there's no way you're throwing out those cute wedges that rub against your ankles!

    Promising review: "This stuff is amazing! I wore heels that always give me blisters for eight hours, and I didn't get a single one when using this balm. It really worked! I plan on getting it again and again. I always have it in my bag at work just in case. I did find it necessary to reapply if I took my shoes off and put them on again." —Donna

    Get it from Amazon for $8.99.

    30. A mineral-based Etude House drying powder for controlling your face's oil production so springtime humidity doesn't make your forehead shiny. Apply after your skincare routine or after you've applied makeup and worry less about looking greasy!

    Pro tip: You can also apply it to your roots (make sure you dust off the residue) so your hair looks freshly washed.

    Promising review: "I'm 36 and have struggled with oily, acne-prone skin my whole life. Why did no one tell me about this sooner??? I use a kabuki brush (instead of the small velvet pad they provide) and spread a thin layer of powder all over my face after all other skincare products and before foundation. It literally keeps me shine free for my 18-hour work shifts! On especially hot and humid days, I'll reapply this *lightly* over my makeup halfway through the day. It also seems to have cleared up the smaller blemishes around my nose and chin! Hooray! I wish I could give it more than five stars." —RZ

    Get it from Amazon for $5.60.

    31. A pack of oil-absorbing tissues your T-zone will be eternally grateful for. And because they're made with organic bamboo charcoal, they'll be gentle on your skin. Sweat and oil will *not* be ruining your epic glam looks this spring.

    Promising review: "I've had oily skin my whole life and have used countless types of oil-blotting sheets because they're lifesavers. THESE ARE AMAZING. Great deal, big sheets, and they pull out one at a time so easily. I used to use Clean & Clear sheets or knockoffs of the same thing but I'll never go back. Give these a try; they are completely worth it. They work well and are easy to use. No negative things to say at all." —Kelsey

    Promising review: "I have super oily skin and am always looking for something to help control it during the day. The linen squares are good but you have to keep them around (aka keep replacing them) and they end up in the landfill. This little contraption really works and I just rinse it at the end of the day and start over again the next. I keep one in my desk and bought a second for my purse. This is magic for my shiny skin, especially on camera in my hours of Zoom everyday." —Jennifer Helseth

    Get it from Amazon for $13.40.

    33. A sleek dehumidifier for sucking the water out of the air so you can breathe a little easier in this heat. It's got a silent fan so you won't even notice it's working until you realize how comfortable you feel.

    Promising review: "I'm impressed with this dehumidifier. When I plugged it in, it read 78 and after two days it nows read 55. We have had a lot of rain and hot humid days of late and this machine did a pretty good job. The machine is much quieter than my old machine and easy to set up. I chose to run the hose into the sub-pump rather than emptying the reservoir several times a day. It's also helped rid the basement of a musty smell." —Rachel Ritter

    Get it from Amazon for $169.99.

    34. A hot spot and itch relief spray formulated with hydrocortisone to help ease discomfort caused by allergies, insect bites, and more. This non-stinging formula can help reduce swelling, itching, and redness.

    Promising reviews: "My puppy got a horrible heat rash under the legs and elbows this summer and was constantly scratching. After a couple of times spraying him, the redness and scratching subsided." —Lili

    “This stuff is amazing! I have a few different kinds of sprays and shampoo and this actually seems to help my dog instantly! He doesn’t even try to get away when I’m putting it in him unlike other anti-itch or medicated pet sprays!” —Cher/Cheryl Sever

    Get it from Amazon for $14.99.

    35. A long-lasting Urban Decay setting spray made to last for up to 16 hours, so your fiercest looks last all day. This vegan mist prevents melting and cracking. No wicked witches over here!

    Promising review: "I’ve used different setting sprays and this is by far my favorite. I do a few sprays in the morning, fan my face really quickly until it's dry, and it lasts all day. My job requires me to be active and I find my self sweating most of the time, but at the end of the day my makeup is still ready to go. I'll continue to buy this brand!" —Samantha Cabrera

    Get it from Amazon for $36.

    36. A pair of period-proof underwear because the last thing you need is a ~flow breach~ ruining your new, white sundress. These are also great for wearing overnight or while doing physical activities since they're leakproof, breathable, and can hold up to two tampons worth of liquid!

    Heads up — reviewers love these undies, but suggest sizing up!

    Promising review: "I deal with PCOS and endometriosis which make my periods HEAVY for the first three to four days. I ordered two pairs of these underwear. They absorbed better than a pad, were comfortable, and the top layer stayed dry. Amazing. I had been thinking about buying the really expensive version of these underwear, but the price was ridiculous. These underwear do exactly what I need them to do for half the price. They are easy to hand wash and hang dry. I plan on ordering more. The stitching and waistband are solid and they don't bunch, don't ride up, and don't roll. They provide front and back coverage. They're literally perfect. If you're on the fence about these, I urge you to give them a try. They'll save you money (no pads or tampons needed, and you won't stain your regular underwear and have to replace them)." —drsmaw

    37. A doggy sunscreen made with moisturizing aloe vera that'll help your pup stay safe while playing this summer. Just spray their coat with this quick-drying and safe-to-lick spray for relief from dry and cracked skin. This also works great as itch relief and a snout soother!

    Promising review: “This product is so helpful. My poor pup has a white-spotted nose and it gets sunburnt so easily, along with the inside of his ears. So I just spray a little of this when he decides to sunbathe and he hasn’t been burnt since!” —Danielle Fender

    Get it from Warren London on Amazon for $13.99.

    38. A Yonanas soft serve maker to turn any frozen fruit into a delicious dessert in a matter of minutes, which is especially awesome if you have dietary restrictions that prevent you from buying treats at the store. And every part of this gadget is dishwasher-safe, so cleanup will be a breeze.

    Promising review: "I saw one of these in action at a friend's house like five years ago and thought it was just a made up memory, because making ice cream out of solely frozen fruit seems wild. But when I saw a TikTok about it I immediately went to Amazon and bought it. Literally this was the BEST decision of my life. I cannot believe still how amazing this thing is! It makes the creamiest, best-tasting fruit ice cream ever. It’s easy to take apart and clean, and super easy to use." —DMCKAY
