Remember the good old days when you could go to Sephora and swatch lipsticks and blush? Or wander the aisles of Trader Joe’s and take one (or five) samples? In quarantine, those days have been put on pause. But here at Well+Good, it’s kind of our job to swatch or sample the latest-and-greatest products the wellness world has to offer in every sphere from beauty to lifestyle to food. This year, we put hundreds of products to the test—and these nine skin-care buys, snacks, and lifestyle must-haves are the ones with slashed prices as part of Amazon’s Prime Day Sale.
As you shop Amazon Prime Day sales on October 13 and 14, these buys will help you give yourself a scalp massage, find the vitamin C-hyaluronic acid combo you’ve been looking for, and stock your pantry on a budget.
9 Amazon Prime Day Wellness Buys You Don’t Want To Miss
1. Crest 3D White Professional Effects Whitestrips, $28 (originally $45)

If I learned one thing from my devout teeth-whitening phase in high school, it’s that Crest Whitestrips work. While a box of 20 treatments will usually cost you almost a Ulysses S. Grant (that’s who’s on the $50 bill, by the way), Amazon Prime Day will let you snag those strips for less than $30.

2. Adjustable Cell Phone Stand, $9 (originally $12)
Well+Good lifestyle writer Mary Grace Garis purchased this phone case in peak Zoom fatigue, and she swears by it. “While I’m sure any phone stand for a desk will fit the bill… there’s a reason I sought this one, specifically: It’s affordable, its rotational abilities ensure that I won’t have 20 double chins when dialing in someone real cute, and it’s pink,” writes Garis. A compelling argument made even more so by the fact that you can now save $3 on way better virtual happy hours.
