Levi’s, Apple, and CeraVe Are Among Amazon’s 50 Best Early July Fourth Deals From $4
I know we’re now several weeks into the season, but does it really feel like summer until the Fourth of July comes around? It’s one of my favorite holidays for several reasons—the cookouts, beautiful weather, and, of course, all the great sales that fall exactly when my summer wardrobe needs a refresh. Luckily, you don’t have to wait until the holiday weekend to make the most of this year’s discounts; Amazon has already released thousands of deals on fashion, beauty, travel, home, and tech products, and prices start at just $4.
Holiday weekends are meant to be spent with loved ones, which is why I decided to do the heavy-lifting now and curate a list of Amazon’s best early deals. The retailer has major discounts on summer fashion essentials like Levi’s denim shorts, Sam Edelman ballet flats, and New Balance sneakers. Beauty favorites from brands like CeraVe, Garnier, and Revlon are also on sale. And, because it’s the season of travel, you’ll find discounts on luggage, packing cubes, and tote bags perfect for weekend getaways, too.
Below, find my top early Fourth of July Amazon deals for up to 60 percent off, and be sure to get your shopping in while these items are still in stock.

Best Fashion Deals
Amazon’s fashion sale is full of warm weather staples, like breezy dresses, versatile tank tops, and wide-leg pants. This crochet cover-up is ideal for beach days, while these 60-percent-off linen pants are a style I’m constantly reaching for in the summer. For days that involve a quick jog or bopping around the city, I’m eyeing these discounted New Balance sneakers that customers call “cloud-like.” And of course, it wouldn’t be summer without a pair of flip flops, so I’m grabbing this best-selling pair while it’s on sale for $16.

BTFBM One-Shoulder Smocked Maxi Dress
This smocked maxi is on sale for just $48, and it features the one-shoulder neckline that, every summer, I remember I adore. It can easily be dressed down with a pair of casual flats for daytime errands or dressed up with lace-up sandals for an event—one shopper who wore the dress to several weddings called it “the perfect flowy dance that you can dance in.”
Bandolino Philly Mary Jane Flat
I couldn’t be more obsessed with these unique, wicker-esque ballet flats that look like a picnic basket come to life. The now-$50 pair comes in three other colors, each with a round toe and Mary Jane strap with a buckle closure. Plus, stars like Gigi Hadid and Katie Holmes are fans of the shoe style. I plan on styling them with a white linen dress and matching woven bag.
Best Beauty Deals
Goodbye dry, dull winter skin, and hello dewy, radiant summer glow. Seriously, given the hit the colder months gave my skin this year, this summer has me more focused than ever on revving up my beauty game. And because I wear less makeup in the warmer months, I’m especially picky about what I’m buying. Thankfully, Amazon’s latest deals don’t just stop at clothes—they’re also offering discounts on some of my favorite beauty brands, like CeraVe and Maybelline. I’ll be restocking my holy grail Topicals Faded Brightening and Clearing Serum, along with finally checking out what the snail mucin hype is about.

CeraVe SA Cleanser
I, along with 20,000 other Amazon shoppers, have snagged this CeraVe cleanser in the past month, and I can confidently say I have no regrets. The exfoliating face wash has salicylic acid, which has helped my skin with breakouts and oil control. A customer who calls the wash “worth every penny” also remarked they saw their skin noticeably improve after use.
Cosrx Snail Mucin Power Repairing Essence
It only takes one scroll through the reviews of this now-$12 serum to understand the snail mucin obsession. Customers say it “goes on like silk in a bottle” and that their skin feels “more hydrated and plump” after use. Given that the Cosrx Snail Mucin Repairing Essence is now on sale for over half-off, there’s never been a better time to give it a try.
Best Travel Deals
Packing your bags any time this summer? You’re not alone. With several trips on the books, I’m long overdue to restock my travel essentials. Luggage sets, toiletry bags, and Apple AirTags are all on sale as a part of Amazon’s early Fourth of July sale. I’ve recently discovered the genius that is packing cubes, so I’ll also be grabbing those, too, along with other organizational must-haves like tote bags and carry-ons.
- Traveler’s Choice Pagosa Hardshell Carry-on, $88 (Originally $111)

- Bagsmart Quilted Tote Bag, $30 (Originally $40)
HiLife Portable Handheld Steamer
In the summertime, my favorite fabric is anything that involves silk or satin. However, it’s not the most wrinkle-proof style, which is why I’m adding this best-selling $30 portable steamer to my cart. Over 50,000 Amazon customers have purchased it in the past month, making it a clear winner. One reviewer even packed the steamer on a cross country trip and confirmed it made their “clothes fresh and wrinkle-free.”
Apple AirTag
After one too many close calls with lost luggage, I’m not going anywhere this summer without my Apple AirTag, which is on sale for only $25. All you have to do is set up the AirTag with the Find My app on your Apple device, and then you can pop the tag into your travel bags to ensure that even if something does get lost, it’ll be easy to track down.
Best Home and Tech Deals
Everyday tech staples like headphones, tablets, and streaming devices are all on sale ahead of the holiday weekend. Since replacing tech products can be pricey, I always like to wait until sale seasons like this one to stock up. Below, find deals on Airpods, iPads, and streaming sticks from Amazon and Roku. Plus, you can save on home products, too, including a nearly half-off area rug and a customer-loved vacuum.
- Apple AirPods Max Wireless Over-Ear Headphones, $449 (Originally $549)

- Uvvyui Decorative Knot Throw Pillow, $14 (Originally $19)
- Jonathan Y Moroccan Area Rug, $58 (Originally $103)
Apple Airpods Pro (2nd Generation)
It’s the season of hot girl walks, meaning a new pair of headphones is in order. While I’ve tried alternatives, none are as good as the Apple Airpods Pro, which are now on sale for 20 percent off. Reviewers swear by them, too, including one shopper who said they’re “extremely comfortable” with “amazing sound quality.”
Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Streaming Device
With 4K streaming, Wi-Fi support, and over 1.5 million movies and TV episodes available, the Amazon Fire TV Stick is pretty much a no-brainer. Customers say the streaming device delivers a “smooth and lag-free performance every time,” which is obviously key for binge-watching your favorite movies and series. Grab the all-in-one gadget while it’s on sale for just $40.
