Beyond the obvious (America's birthday!), if there's anything else to celebrate this Fourth of July, it's the slew of can't-miss sales. Just hear me out: The discounts on fashion, home and beauty are off the charts ahead of the festivities. And as usual, Amazon is leading the pack with some of the biggest offers in every category. So, if shopping and saving at the Amazon Fourth of July sale isn't already on your list of things to do while you're OOO, best put it on there now.

In fact, you should start scrolling the sale ASAP, because the markdowns on tons of your favorite products (like Vacation's beloved sunscreen and these comfy slide sandals you'll want to wear all summer long) are currently in full swing. And with Amazon Prime Day 2025 just around the corner, this is your last chance to score a ton of early deals ahead of the crowd. Thankfully, I perused the sale to ensure you have a shot at scoring the biggest savings sooner rather than later. Here are 13 fireworks-worthy July Fourth deals to scoop up before prices go back up.

I live in dresses during the summertime. If you do, too, I probably don't have to convince you to snag this breezy tiered maxi that's sure to be comfy thanks to its flowy fit and lightweight rayon fabric. It's also marked down in a bunch of solid colors and patterns, so you might want to pick it up in multiples—especially once you hear what this reviewer has to say about the style: "So pleasantly surprised how much I love this dress! After receiving I immediately went to see what other colors/prints I’m going to buy...Perfect summer dress to wear casual with flip-flops or dress it up with heels." I'm certainly sold.

These genuine suede-lined slides feature a memory foam footbed and adjustable buckle straps. But are they as comfortable as they look? I peeked through their massive review section (with more than 68,000 reviews) for answers. Here's one buyer's honest opinion: "These are perfect, and didn’t break the bank! Comfy while also supportive of your feet. I have high arches and small wide feet, and they are a perfect fit!" Since they also come in a range of colors and upper finishes, you might want to grab two pairs while the price is this good.

This summer has been hot so far, so if I were you, I'd definitely take advantage of the deal on this portable neck fan that will keep you cool wherever you go—from the pool to Disney World. It has a long battery life lasting between four and 16 hours, per the brand, so you don't have to worry about recharging it while you're out. Plus, it adjusts between three different speeds to offer the perfect breeze for your needs

If you're stuffing your suitcase for an upcoming trip, these lightweight packing cubes are an excellent solution. You get five of them in a pack, and each has interior pockets and an extra zipper on the outside that can be zipped up to help squash clothes down (and fit more in your bag). You also get a drawstring pouch, which will come in handy for storing dirty clothes or shoes on your travels. It's no wonder everyone wants to get their hands on this set before their next vacay (including me).

Save your skin from sunburn this summer with this TikTok-famous Vacation sunscreen that shoppers adore. What makes it so good? Well, just take a look at what one reviewer had to say: "Love this sunscreen...The smell is lovely and it feels light and cool on the skin. No white marks...We have been using this sunscreen all spring and summer." Not to mention, you get *three* water-resistant, SPF 50 bottles in this pack, so it should keep you covered all through the season.

Listen, I love a good pair of designer sunglasses as much as the next girl, but they're not always the most practical pick when you're relaxing by the pool or on vacation and don't want to risk losing them. These ones from Sojos have all the style that I love (plus polarized, UV-protective lenses), but at less than $20, they'll have me way less stressed about carrying them around. I'm definitely stocking up (and you should, too).

PureWow Beauty and Cultures Editor Chelsea Candelario put a similar version of these best-selling under-eye masks to the test to see if they're really worth it. Spoiler: They totally are. "I feel more energized (like the name suggests) and the area looks brighter than ever. I appreciate how they reduce my dark circles and maintain moisture. I also love how Grace & Stella offers a variety of pack options to choose from, and honestly, the price is pretty reasonable," she shared in her review. And now that price is even better, so I'd say they're definitely worth snagging.

We can all agree that vacuuming is one of the most tedious household chores, right? Well, guess what? This cordless vacuum can make the task *a lot* more bearable—or even, dare I say, enjoyable. Besides sucking up stubborn pet hair on carpets and nearly invisible dirt particles from rugs and hard floors, this lightweight and easy-to-maneuver Dyson comes with several attachments, including not one, but *four* cleaning accessories that allow you to go from vacuuming hard floors to deep cleaning pet beds. Better yet, the masterpiece easily converts to a handheld when you need it. Its brilliant no-touch bin-emptying system? Yet another feature that'll make you dread cleaning less.

These heat waves feel relentless this year, so if you need a little help keeping cool at night, allow me to introduce you to this cooling comforter from Cozy Bliss that's earned tons of rave reviews. "When they label this a cooling blanket they are not kidding. Climbing in, the bed is cold, even on the hottest day of summer," wrote one happy buyer. Meanwhile, another explained that it kept them cool all through the night, even when temperatures went well into the 90s. The fact that it's majorly discounted now is just a bonus if you ask me.

These enamel-safe teeth whitening strips are popular for a reason (in fact, they're so popular that they've received more than 55,000 reviews from Amazon shoppers). Besides using natural ingredients like coconut oil, dead sea salt and lemon peel oil that won't leave your teeth feeling overly sensitive, the strips are also made with the brand's stain targeting technology that's specifically designed to (you guessed it) target stains. Want proof? Take it from this shopper who shared, "These are the only whitening strips I’ve used that don’t cause any sensitivity at all. No zaps of pain, no lingering discomfort...just gradual, gentle whitening. One thing I love is that the strips are soft and flexible, so they’re easy to apply and comfortable to wear."

If you need even more relief from the summer heat, you (and your kids, and your pets) won't regret grabbing this fun splash pad for your backyard while it's less than $40. It comes in a few different sizes and prints so you can find one that will best fit your space, and the surface is designed to be non-slip, so you can rest easy letting the kids run through the built-in sprinklers. The materials are BPA- and phalathate-free, too, and thick enough that if your pup wants to join in on the fun, you don't have to worry about their paws snagging it. Still on the fence? You might want to take a look at the more than 27,000 reviews for the splash pad, including this one from a buyer, who shared, "Two years in and this little splash pad is still providing hours of cool, summer fun! Seams have all held up, it’s a breeze to put up and take down, and thick enough to hold up to two active toddlers."

I heard comfy denim shorts are on your list of things to buy this weekend. Don't ask me how, just do yourself a favor and scoop up this beloved Levi's style that *rarely* disappoints. When I say rarely, I mean more than 20,000 buyers have given them a 5-star rating, and it's all because they fit well, don't gap at the waist, and are said to be the perfect length. Just note that some reviewers suggest sizing up if you're looking for a more relaxed fit—either way, I believe you just found your new go-to Daisy Dukes.

In case you haven't heard, everyone's working out (and even just walking!) with weighted vests on these days.  Wanna get in on the fitness trend? Then don't miss your chance to grab this one, that's available in eight different weight options between 5 and 30 pounds, for less. It has a mesh pocket at the back where you can store your phone or keys, and an extra detachable pouch that you can add onto one of the padded straps. "This is awesome, so happy I purchased. I've worn it a couple of times since it arrived a few days ago and you can really feel it! I am only walking with it at the moment but it definitely makes a difference, especially going up hills etc. I love walking, so this is a great way to make the exercise 'count' more," shared one happy buyer.
