Splendid Women’s Long Sleeve Rayon Jersey Scoop T-Shirt ($46.40, originally $58) amazon.com)

Splendid Women’s Long Sleeve Rayon Jersey Scoop T-Shirt

I’m a sucker for a comfy tee, and I already own a short sleeve version of this shirt. With winter coming, I figured I should probably graduate to long sleeves. The price might still seem a little steep for a basic black shirt, but Splendid clothing is always good quality, so I am betting on the fact that it will be a wardrobe staple of mine for years to come. Plus, it’s so soft! —Hayley Saltzman, head of social

Revlon One-Step Hair Dryer ($29.39, originally $59.99; amazon.com)

After reading many, many positive reviews of the Revlon One-Step over a very long period of time, I finally decided to get one of my own when it was under $30 on Prime Day. I don’t usually blow out my very curly hair, but maybe the fact that this dryer doubles as a brush will encourage me to do it more often. —Chelsea Stone, commerce editor

I’m what you might call a liquid eyeliner aficionado. I’ve been practicing my cat-eye wings for more than two decades, and can say with confidence that this Stila eyeliner is the cream of the crop; it was also our editors’ pick for best liquid eyeliner on the market. I’ve always got one in my makeup bag, so buying one on sale was a no-brainer! —Emmy Favilla, deputy editor

Anker Nano 20-Watt Fast Charger ($19.99; amazon.com)

Anker Nano Fast Charger

I bought the Anker Nano 20-Watt Fast Charger because I’ve always trusted and enjoyed Anker’s power accessories, and I have way more cords than I do adapters so it was time to pick one up. —Benjamin Levin, tech contributor

iTouchless 13 Gallon Stainless Steel Automatic Trash Can

I’ve been on the hunt for a sturdy trash can and never thought I would venture into the digital disposal life, but here we are on Prime Day, a perfect time to find the upgrade I am looking for. I decided to take the leap and purchase the iTouchless trash can that comes in various sizes and is currently the #1 Best seller on Amazon, energy efficient and has raving customer reviews. —Natasha Hatendi, photo editor

Calvin Klein Women’s Modern Cotton Bralette

I live in sports bras, and I already own this classic Calvin Klein racerback style — which I use as an everyday bra, to work out in, to sleep in, you name it. It’s super comfy, so of course I had to stock up on more when I saw they were on sale for Prime Day. —Emmy Favilla, deputy editor

Ring Indoor Cam ($44.99, originally $59.99; amazon.com) and Ring Stick Up Cam ($79.99, originally $99.99; amazon.com)

I already own the Ring Doorbell 3 and a Ring Stick Up Cam for outdoor/indoor, and wanted another one for the backyard — and also another indoor one to monitor our baby. I love how easy it is to set up and how seamlessly it works in the app. With a great deal like that, it was hard to turn it down. —Bryce Widelitz, senior director of business development

Mushroom Coffee by Four Sigmatic ($12.75; amazon.com)

Mushroom Coffee by Four Sigmatic

Mushroom Coffee by Four Sigmatic

Some days, I drink so much coffee that I feel like it stops working. I’m always chasing that buzzy feeling that helps me lock in and get motivated, but drinking upward of five cups of coffee to get it just can’t be good for my health. Instead, when I really need to focus I’ve been drink Four Sigmatic’s Mushroom Coffee with lion’s mane and it’s changed the game. One pack of this and I can blow through my inbox in minutes. Luckily, I caught the coffee when it was a Lightning Deal [link to lightning deal story] so I got a box of 10 packets for under $10, but even at its normal price this mushroom coffee is a must have for me. —Kai Burkhardt, editorial coordinator

Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray ($22; amazon.com)

Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray

Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray

This spray is a cult favorite for a reason: Not only does it have hair look freshly styled days after your last shampoo, but it also smells downright amazing. Frankly, my hair hasn’t looked great for the last few months, so I’m excited to add this to my arsenal of products. —Chelsea Stone, commerce editor

Echo Show 5 ($44.99, originally $89.99; amazon.com)

We just bought a new home and I am trying to actively connect everything in our smart home together. Between a previous Echo dot, smart lights, rings, et cetera, I wanted one for our kitchen. It was close to $40 off, so I went for it! —Bryce Widelitz, senior director of business development

Stasher Reuable Food Storage, 4-Piece Bundle

I recently decided to switch over to reusable food storage bags in order to reduce my use of single-use plastics, and when it comes to this category, Stasher is the brand to get. Plus, the aqua color matches my kitchen! —Chelsea Stone, commerce editor
