If, like me, you're no stranger to puffy eyes and dark circles, invest in these grace & stella under-eye masks while they're over 50% off. The top-rated eye patches deliver a mix of retinol, sea moss, and hyaluronic acid to make you look well-rested and refreshed.

Cosrx Snail Mucin 96% Power Repairing Essence ($10, originally $25)

While the Cosrx Snail Mucin 96% Power Repairing Essence is a bestseller every year, for Prime Day 2024, you can snag the skin-care product for a whopping 60% off. With hydrating ingredients like snail mucin and hyaluronic acid, it's no wonder this essence regularly goes viral. One PS editor explained why it's worth the hype in her review of the Cosrx Snail Mucin Essence.

Editor Quote: "Though I was worried the additional skin-care step would clog my pores over time, leading to pimples and what have you, my skin's texture has actually improved, and it feels way more even now. The hydration payoff is also huge, and I feel like it actually helps my moisturizer work better, too." — Kelsey Garcia, associate content director, Balance

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask ($17, originally $24)

Discounted for less than $20 right now, the Laneige lip sleeping mask is one of the bestselling products on Amazon — and for good reason. It boasts hydrating ingredients like coconut oil, shea butter, and hyaluronic acid to nourish dry lips overnight. Shoppers love its "lusciously thick formula with a silky-soft texture and a glossy finish," says one PS editor in her review of the Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask.

Editor Quote: "Ever since laying my hands on a little tub of it for the first time, it's remained a staple on my bedside table, in my handbag, and on my work desk, just to name a few spots I have them stashed. (Yes, I proudly own several flavors.) I'm obsessed with everything about this lip mask, from its pretty pink packaging to its hydrating, nonsticky texture." — MP

Color Wow Dream Coat Supernatural Spray ($22, originally $28)

If you're looking to maintain shine and reduce frizz during the warm-weather months, it's worth it to invest in the Color Wow Dream Coat Supernatural Spray while it's on sale. The anti-humidity spray features heat-activated polymers, which protect hair from moisture and eliminate frizz. For more details as well as before-and-after photos, read our editor's Color Wow Dream Coat Supernatural Spray review.

Editor Quote: "I initially tried the Color Wow Dream Coat Supernatural Spray while getting ready for an outdoor graduation party, and it had just rained. Usually, my hair would turn into a giant, frizzy poof, but now, it just became slightly wavier with no frizz whatsoever." — Anvita Reddy, assistant editor, Commerce

Crest 3D Whitestrips ($30, originally $46)

There's a reason Crest 3D Whitestrips are a mainstay in most beauty cabinets — and you can get 44 strips for $30 on Prime Day. The strips claim to deliver a whiter smile in "just 22 days" thanks to hydrogen peroxide — and it works, according to our PS editor in her review of Crest 3D Whitestrips.

Editor Quote: "What truly impresses me about Crest 3D Whitestrips is their effectiveness. The box boldly claimed they could "remove over 15 years of stains in three days," which initially made me a bit skeptical. However, the results speak for themselves. After just four treatments, the difference is already remarkable." — Marisa Petrarca, contributing editor, Commerce

Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides Powder ($32, originally $47)

On sale for over 30 percent off this Prime Day, this collagen-infused peptides powder is the "secret weapon" for both PS editors and celebrities like Jennifer Aniston. It boasts vitamin C to support natural collagen production and hyaluronic acid to hydrate skin and increase joint mobility. According to our editor's review of Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides Powder, the supplement lives up to the hype.

Editor Quote: "I love the collagen powder for its ability to add a hearty dose of protein to anything I'm eating or drinking — it transforms a black coffee or low-protein veggie soup into something that's more satiating and protein-packed." — Christina Stiehl, former senior editor, Fitness

Gayhay High-Waisted Leggings ($8, originally $20)

Amazon offers some of the bestselling leggings on the market, and this top-rated pair is on sale for 60 percent off this year. From the high-waisted design to the polyester and spandex blend, these leggings are breathable, sweat-wicking, and comfortable to wear.

Telena Belt Bag ($8, originally $12)

Shoppers can stock up on the wildly-popular Telena Belt bag, a dupe for a viral style, for its lowest price ever during Prime Day 2024. The water-resistant bag is roomier than it looks: it has enough interior space for valuables like your phone, lip gloss, cardholder, and more. Even better, it boasts a main compartment with three mesh slots and a back zipper compartment so you can keep track of all your essentials. Find out why it's a worthwhile dupe in this review of the Telena Belt Bag.

Editor Quote: "The bag comes with a lot of the same features as the original viral belt bag. It has a main compartment and three mesh slots for holding valuables secure — including two that are about credit-card size and another that's big enough for your smartphone. The material is water-resistant, and the adjustable straps and bucket allow you to wear it as both a crossbody and a belt bag or fanny pack." — Lauren Mazzo, former senior editor, Fitness

Levi's Women's Ribcage Straight Ankle Jeans ($30, originally $80)

Jeans are always a worthwhile investment, and for Prime Day, Levi's cult-favorite ribcage straight ankle jeans are their lowest price ever at $30. Discounted at over 50%, the classic jeans feature a high-rise waist and straight-leg silhouette, delivering a universally flattering fit. They're versatile enough to pair with heels for a night out or with slides for a day of running errands.

HiLife Portable Clothing Steamer ($25, originally $40)

The HiLife steamer is viral for a reason: it somehow manages to be powerful (with 700 wattage and 240 ml water capacity) yet compact at the same time. Gentle yet effective on clothing, it provides up to 15 minutes of uninterrupted steaming. The handheld design is "lightweight, making it easy to hold and pack in your duffel bag or carry-on," says one PS editor in her review of the HiLife Portable Clothing Steamer.

Editor Quote: "The steamer works wonders on most materials and clothes you'd have a hard time ironing, like sequin dresses or pearl-encrusted tops. I also like that it's lightweight, making it easy to hold and pack in your duffel bag or carry-on." — Shelcy Joseph, former PS contributor

Bissell Little Green Multi-Purpose Carpet Cleaner ($82, originally $124)

This top-rated, multipurpose carpet cleaner is rarely sold for under $100 — so getting it for $82 during Prime Day is a steal. It has a powerful suction capacity to remove difficult spots; a HydroRinse Self-Cleaning Hose Tool and Spraying Crevice Tool for stains that are hard to reach; and a 48-ounce tank capacity so you can use it multiple times before refilling. The lightweight cleaner works well on multiple surfaces, from rugs to stairs to upholstery. Read about one editor's experience in her Bissell Little Green Portable Cleaner review.

Editor Quote: "I saw results within a few minutes, and I noticed that my upholstery looked visibly more vibrant and refreshed — particularly my vintage rugs and bath mats, which have a tendency to look pretty discolored and worn down. The aftercare was also incredibly easy — I simply unplugged the cleaner, emptied and rinsed the water tank, and let the tank air dry." — Kyley Warren, assistant editor, Commerce

Samsung 55-Inch Class QLED 4K The Frame TV ($998, originally $1,498)

If the Frame TV's been on your wish list for awhile, now's the time to purchase it while it's under $1,000. This viral Smart TV has it all, from hi-def, 4K Ultra HD picture quality to the ability to look like a picture frame when it's turned off. "I appreciate the flexibility that comes with being able to easily switch up the art that I choose to display, which is something I wouldn't otherwise be able to do with large-scale art, which is its own investment," our PS editor explains in this review of the Samsung Frame TV.

Editor Quote: "If you have the budget and prioritize aesthetics, I think Samsung The Frame TV is worth the money. The difference between what a typical TV looks like on the wall vs. The Frame TV is night and day. Yes, you can find a TV with 4K resolution in the same size for almost half the price, but it won't blend in seamlessly with your decor like The Frame TV does." — Angela Elias, contributing editor, Commerce
