Amazon Prime Day 2026 is officially back and stocked with all the best goodies a gal can find on the internet. As a shopping editor who has covered the massive sale for 8 years, it’s safe to say I know when to either pounce or wait for a good deal. And right now? It’s time to go in for the kill. Amazon’s four-day sale has tons of items I’ve been waiting to buy, and I’m not wasting one more second to do so.
My cart is currently filled with items I already love (and need to restock) and deals that are so buzzy, I couldn’t help but be influenced. Some editor favorites include the viral Laneige lip mask, a Giorgio Armani perfume that smells like summer and my go-to Gap white tee that I wear on repeat. I’m also super excited to snap up flattering sundresses, relaxed shorts, frizz-resistant hair oil and Amazon’s Kindle Paperwhite. These Prime Day deals start at just $14, but they won’t last for long. The massive Amazon sale officially ends on June 26, so while you have a few days to shop, I wouldn’t risk it.
Editor-Approved Amazon Prime Day Deals
1. My Favorite: I cannot tell you how many times I use the Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask. Okay, fine. I use it almost every night. The formula is so hydrating, smells delicious and leaves my pout feeling extremely soft in the morning — was $24, now $16!
2. Anything But Basic: A classic shirtdress is a summertime staple, and this butter yellow find totally caught my eye. Not only is the color so on trend, but the dress also has this flattering tie-waist detail that creates an hourglass figure — was $129, now $57!
3. Trending Deal: It’s come to my attention that crossbody bags are apparently ‘out.’ And while I’ll never give up my favorites, I’m eyeing this Kate Spade shoulder bag that aligns with the sleek ‘It’ girl trend. Despite the compact size, I love that it can still fit all my on-the-go essentials — was $278, now $167!
4. Everyday Essential: I go through plain white tees like nobody’s business (and replenish them as such). This simple Gap crewneck is one I reach for constantly. It’s soft, semi-stretchy and goes with just about everything in my closet — was $20, now $14!
5. Laid-Back Chic: Short shorts are so yesterday, which is why I’m opting for these relaxed, baggy shorts instead. These Levi’s aren’t quite as long as jorts, however, they still have a 7-inch inseam to prevent thigh chafing — was $65, now $30!
6. Soft Statement: Clinique’s Black Honey Almost Lipstick is my go-to evening shade; the berry hue looks so good next to my skin tone . . . and now I’m dying to get the brand’s latest shade. The Nude Honey option is slightly lighter, making it ideal for daytime wear — was $25, now $18!
7. Game Changer: Amazon’s Kindle Paperwhite is probably the one item I’m most excited to buy this year. I started reading books for fun again, but lugging them around NYC can be a challenge. The tablet is super lightweight and thin, allowing me to enjoy books anywhere (even the pool). Psst, it’s waterproof — was $160, now $125!
8. Instant Upgrade: This Giorgio Armani perfume really takes me back in time. I used to spritz it on every time I went to Jamaica to spend my summer with family there, and it just smelled like the ocean. Lemon, water jasmine and cedarwood are all part of the scent profile — was $140, $84!
9. Sporty-Chic: Athletic dresses became more and more popular in recent years, and options like this Outdoor Voices pick make it easy to see why. I love the stretchy, sweat-wicking performance fabric and built-in shorts that let me go about my business sans a purse — was $100, now $80!
10. Bestseller Alert: Truth be told, I have really great hair. It’s soft, wavy and thick (all thanks to genetics), however, my strands tend to expand once humidity hits. The Olaplex N°.7 Bonding Oil is said to combat frizz and humidity, while also providing heat protection for up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. I’m sold — was $32, now $22!
11. Summer Staple: Wedding guest dresses are hard to find at a reasonable price, however, this maxi from Petal & Pup proved me wrong. The textured fabric, body-skimming fit and halter neckline look so expensive. And I’m so into this pretty green hue — was $89, now $71!
12. Comfort MVP: A white maxi skirt, like this flowy number, has been on my radar for a while. It gives off major Mediterranean vibes, even if I’m just walking in the West Village — was $40, now $19!
13. Going Viral: I’ve been on the hunt for a new concealer and saw the Tarte Shape Tape on my ‘For You’ Instagram page. Based on the videos I’ve seen, this baby swipes away dark circles like magic. Plus, it comes in so many shades, including ones that work with olive skin tones, like mine — was $32, now $19!
