What Our Editors Are Buying From Amazon Prime Big Deal Days

I live in an apartment and I’ve been wanting a pair of sandals to throw on for trips down to the laundry room or to the garbage room on my floor. These cork sandals are perfect for slipping into when I need to be out the door in under five minutes. For October Big Deal Days, they’re 43% off, which is even more of a steal. They’re available in about a million colors, too. —Alexandra Napoli (Originally $49.99, Now $28.49)

Lately I’ve been thinking about how I dry my face off with the same towel I use for my body, and I officially gave myself the ick. These disposable towels — they’re biodegradable, don’t @ me — make sure none of the bacteria normal bath towels can hold ends up on my sensitive, breakout-prone skin. They’re soft, a lot more absorbent than you would think, and come in an extra large size that makes it easy to pat my face dry then use the rest to mop up the water I splashed out on the counter. They come in a pack of 50, so there’s no harm in testing them out to see if they make a difference for your skin (they did for mine), especially since they’re 20% off. —Martha Upton (Originally $18, Now $14.40)

When it starts getting chilly and the sun is going down impossibly early, I love to do The Most with my nighttime shower routine. I’m talking fall playlist on, favorite pumpkin candle lit, and bringing out all my body care lotions and potions. I love using this scrub from head to toe because it actually makes a real difference in how smooth my skin feels, thanks to the gentle exfoliation of lactic and glycolic acids. It also has pumice beads for the satisfying feeling of physically buffing away dead skin. I’ve tried a lot of body scrubs to keep razor bumps at bay, and this one has always come out on top. Grab it while it’s 29% off. —Martha Upton (Originally $28, Now $20)

Maybe it’s the return of indie sleaze, but I’ve recently been inspired to wear eyeliner again after years of going without. This Urban Decay 24/7 pencil was always my go-to in my own indie sleaze days, so I’m grabbing it on sale today. It glides on smoothly and the pigment is rich right upon application, even on your waterline, so you don’t need to run over it a million times. My eyes tend to get watery, and the waterproof formula doesn’t slide around. Zero, the matte black shade, is a classic, but I’m also intrigued by this gorgeous coppery, shimmery Corrupt shade. —Caroline Goldstein (Originally $23, Now $16.10)

I can’t even remember the last time I bought makeup brushes, which means it’s probably time to stock up on some new ones. I've recently discovered Real Techniques and have been wanting to try their Bubble Blending Makeup Brush for a while now. It’s a multipurpose brush you can use with powders, liquids, and creams. Because it's so dense, I know it’ll be perfect for the days that I want to quickly blend out my tinted moisturizer and get on with my day. —Margo Ghertner (Originally $11.99, Now $7.49)

I got a new flat-screen TV for my apartment and wanted a way to set it up without drilling holes (since I move often). This sleek TV stand does the trick, blending perfectly with my living room vibe. Heads up: I’d recommend grabbing a friend to help with the setup, but once it’s up, it looks amazing. It's the perfect solution if you're all about moving smarter, not harder. —Sarai Thompson (Originally $53.99, Now $39.99)
