I Spend 8 Hours a Day on Amazon, and I’m Buying These 8 Memorial Day Sales From $8

I shop for a living, so events like Amazon’s massive Memorial Day sale are my personal Super Bowl. To celebrate the start of the holiday weekend, I sifted through the retailer’s impressive deal selection and cherry-picked the eight products worth snagging. Below, shop the fashion, beauty, and lifestyle finds I’m taking to checkout for as little as $8 (yes, you read that correctly).   

The following list includes closet staples I’ll be wearing on repeat this summer from brands like Levi’s, Franco Sarto, and JW Pei. You can also shop beauty bag must-haves including a smoothing Palmer’s body butter and EltaMD tinted sunscreen. Plus, score poolside picks like this flattering swimsuit that’s on double sale, and this Hydro Flask tumbler, which will keep you hydrated all season. Regardless of what catches your eye, be sure to grab your favorite picks ASAP—these epic Memorial Day discounts won’t last long.       

Editor-Loved Amazon Sales

Levi’s 501 Mid-Thigh Shorts

No warm weather wardrobe is complete without a pair of classic denim shorts, and it doesn’t get more classic than Levi’s. These mid-length cutoffs are now $35—an entire 41 percent off their usual $60 cost. The shorts have a flattering high-rise waistline and subtly distressed hemline for an added element of style. I’m a fan of this medium wash option, but you can snag the pair in a range of nine additional colorways. If you’re still on the fence, take it from one reviewer who deemed the pair the “best shorts [they] have ever had in [their] life.” I’ll take two!

Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Body Lotion

Speaking of shorts, I’m ensuring my legs (and whole body, for that matter) are silky smooth this summer. My secret? The Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Lotion, which happens to be on sale for just $8. The nourishing body care pick is formulated with vitamin E and cocoa butter, as its name suggests, to deeply moisturize your complexion and heal irritation. Unlike traditional body creams, the Palmer’s pick has a solid formula, comparable to a bar of soap, so it’s extra easy to apply to your entire body. More than 10,000 shoppers purchased the lotion in the past month alone, and one reviewer even deemed it a “miracle product.”  

The Drop Britt Tiered Maxi Dress

I don’t know about you, but I live in breezy dresses all summer long. So, I’m snagging this maxi style from Amazon’s influencer-loved brand, The Drop, while it’s under $50. The sleeveless piece has a timeless square neckline and tiered billowy skirt. Plus, it’s made from a lightweight tencel material to keep you cool as temperatures rise. Personally, I can’t stop thinking about this vacation-ready striped pattern, but the dress is available in 19 other options, too. Not sold yet? One customer deemed it the “perfect casual summer dress.”  

Run to Amazon to shop my Memorial Day sale picks while they’re still available for as little as $8.
