Skimm Shopping

EDITOR'S NOTE

Ale here, also known as your trusted Skimm Tested editor. This summer, we’ve been busy trying everything from one-size-fits-all bathing suits to travel-friendly hair dryers, and more. Some of my favorites? So glad you asked. Here are four items my team has personally tried that are worth the price:

Chunky platform sandals that make a statement without the blisters.
A foldable fan one editor used to beat the Atlanta heat.
Pamela Anderson’s skincare line for a glowy, makeup-free look.
A slim bathroom storage cart that’s under $20.

The mid-summer picks our editors reach for on repeat

We’ll never gatekeep these cooling essentials.

tennis skirt, antifriction stick, facial spray

🎾 A buttery-soft skirt with built-in shorts that’ll take you straight from the tennis court to Sunday brunch.*

🙏 The tiny tool we treat as A/C on the go.

‼️ An anti-friction foot stick for blisters.

🚿 A purse-sized version of a luxe facial mist. It’s perfect if you’re prone to hot flashes.

Gap Vegan Leather Wedge Sandals

When does Gap ever get it wrong?

Margo here. Given the nature of my job, loved ones text me all the time to tell me about products they’re obsessed with. The latest? This pair of Gap wedges my friend Daera swears by for walking around Chicago. She says that she’s worn them to the office, then to drinks, and ended the day with no foot pain. They’re minimal (but very chic), and remind me of The Row…but for $27.

Today’s Must-Haves

Here are three of the hottest products on the internet this week:

tomato vine cleaning products, citrus juicer, bralette

Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day Tomato Vine Collection: Hello, Flamingo Estate dupe.
Dreamfarm Citrus Juicer: It folds flat so it won’t get caught in your kitchen drawer.
Spanx Bra-llelujah! Unlined Bralette: A bralette our editor believes is underrated.
