Whether you can’t get enough of the warmer weather and all of the outdoor activities that come with it, or you prefer to hide away in the air conditioning until mid-September, there’s one thing we can all appreciate: a good sale. In an effort to save you both time and money, the editors at Bustle have scoured the web for you, bringing some of the best beauty and fashion deals together in this article. From a 70% off maxi dress that’s perfect for your next beach getaway to a daily serum that will help you fake a just-back-from-vacation glow even if you’re stuck at work, these are the sale items you don’t want to miss.

A Tinted Sunscreen With SPF 30

Right now, you can get an SPF 30 sunscreen from Bliss for a fraction of the typical price. The 100% mineral sunscreen is lightly tinted to do away with any white cast, and it leaves skin feeling soft and comforted, but not greasy or suffocated. Plus, it’s enriched with antioxidants to bolster its skin-protecting abilities.

A Classic Handbag That’s Under $200

And when you are looking for something bigger to hold all of your essentials, there’s this classic top-handle bag. Though its box shape isn’t bulky, it’s still roomy enough to hold your phone, wallet, and sunglasses, and it includes two interior zip pockets for smaller items like your lipstick. There’s a magnetic snap closure under the logo to secure all of your belongings, and the bag even includes a detachable crossbody strap when you need a hands-free bag. Best of all, while the top-handle bag originally sells for $398, it’s available for just $159 on Kate Spade’s site right now.

This Everyday Midi Dress That’s Less Than $50

A voluminous balloon skirt makes this midi dress stand out from the rest. Dress it down with a pair of sandals for a fashionable look that’s easy to throw together during a heat wave, or add a pair of espadrilles and a rattan bag for a casual al fresco dinner. The tank is made from a lighter knitted fabric while the skirt is a more durable gabardine, but the dress can still be machine washed at home on the gentle cycle (and line dried).

  • Available sizes: XS — XXL

These Statement Studs That Are As Colorful As Your Summer Garden

Switch out your usual studs for these Kate Spade floral earrings, which are on sale for less than $40. The plated brass studs feature a blossoming pink and gold flower that’s decorated with multiple colored cubic zirconia stones, and they secure onto the titanium posts with spade-shaped backs.

An Oversized Button-Up To Pair With All Of Your Flowy Summer Pants

Linen is a go-to fabric in the summer, thanks to its superior breathability and moisture-absorbing properties that help to keep you cooler and more comfortable. And this button-up linen shirt is so versatile, you’ll want to collect it in every color. Made with Irish linen from Baird McNutt, which gives the shirt an even softer feel, the short-sleeve silhouette was designed to be slightly oversized for a more relaxed fit that can complement both casual and polished looks.

A Hybrid Face Sunscreen That Doubles As Skin Care

Sure, you know the importance of wearing sunscreen every day. But it doesn’t have to mean adding another step to your routine or shelling out more money. This two-in-one formula from La Roche-Posay pairs broad-spectrum SPF 50 with an antioxidant-rich serum that works twice as hard at protecting skin to give it a more even tone and texture. The serum is oil-free and water-based to give you a more weightless finish that won’t clog pores, and you can currently get it for $10 off.

This Sculpting Bodysuit That’s Surprisingly Comfortable & Lightweight

Now is the time to try one of these buzzy Leonisa bodysuits. Their ‘Plunge Back Classic Sculpting Body Shaper’ from their SmartCore line helps create a super-smooth silhouette underneath your clothing, and helps give your bum a bit of a lift, too. The back is low-cut, so you can wear it with halter tops and backless dresses, while the cotton-lined gusset with a hook-and-eye closure allows for easy bathroom trips.

A Pillowy-Soft Bag Made From Recycled Material

If you’re looking for a fuss-free bag that can take you from the beach to a window shopping stroll, this quilted mini bag is it — and it’s currently less than $30. Made from recycled polyester, the turquoise bag is small enough to carry under your arm a la Hailey Bieber and her beloved Bottega Veneta pouch bag, but it’s also large enough to hold your phone, keys, and even a water bottle. Plus, if you’re someone who sticks to an all-black wardrobe even in the summer, it’s an easy way to add a pop of color.

A Matte Foundation That Lasts For 16 Hours

Whether you have oily skin to begin with or you’re looking to combat the effects of the warmer weather, this liquid foundation will give you a natural matte finish that lasts from morning until night. On sale for more than 50% off, the prestige foundation was formulated to help color-correct redness and an uneven skin tone while giving you medium coverage that can also be sheered out when applied with a damp makeup sponge (conversely, a dry makeup sponge will give you fuller coverage). Natural mineral powders in the foundation help to curb excess oil and shine, ingredients like shea butter and vitamin E provide a bit of moisture, and there’s even a blend of mineral and chemical sunscreens to give you some additional sun protection (though you still need a dedicated facial sunscreen, of course).

This Buildable Coverage Concealer From Rose Inc.’s 50% Off Sale

Right now, you can shop every Rose Inc. product on Sephora for 50% off (including makeup brushes and body care), but this multi-tasking concealer is one of the brand’s bestsellers. The long-wearing formula provides you with medium coverage, and its creamy consistency makes it easy to blend out with your fingers or a brush. The concealer is packed with moisturizing ingredients like vitamin E, squalane, and hyaluronic acid to better plump up and smooth out your skin, but it’s also noncomedogenic so it won’t clog your pores.

This Pro-Favorite Tool That Both Dries & Styles Hair

Hot styling tools tend to be a bit of an investment, but this GHD Styler saves you money in two ways. First, the styling tool, which is a favorite among celebrity hairstylists like Justine Marjan, is currently 50% off. And second, it works to both dry and straighten your hair, eliminating the need for multiple styling tools. It’s able to accomplish the latter without causing any heat damage, thanks to the brand’s Air-Fusion™ technology that evenly distributes air flow and floating plates that use sensors to ensure the temperature remains consistent and low. When your hair is already dry, you can still use this as a straightener by turning on the Shine Shot mode, which only activates the straightening plates. Even though you won’t notice any sizzling or burning smells while using this on damp (or dry) hair, you’ll still want to prep your hair with a heat protectant before styling.

These On-Trend Wide-Leg Pants That Are 50% Off

If the Olsen twins are your style inspo, these wide-leg pants will probably become one of your most loved pieces. As fashion-forward when worn with fitted crop tops as they are with oversized blouses, the relaxed fit is further complemented by an elastic band and lightweight cotton fabric. Plus, if you want to complete the look, the matching blouse is also 50% off.

  • Available sizes: US 2 - US 14

A Scratch-Resistant Leather Wristlet In A Pretty Floral Print

When you don’t want to lug a heavy handbag around, throw your essentials in this floral embossed wristlet. The pattern is perfect for spring and summer, and the wristlet contains multiple cardholder slots for your credit cards and cash. It’s also made with Saffiano leather, which is a more durable option that’s scratch-resistant and easy to clean. Plus, you can also unclip the wrist strap and keep the whole thing in your purse or work bag when you can’t be bothered (or don’t have the time) to switch all of your cards back to a wallet.

This Callus Removing Gel For Sandal-Ready Feet In Minutes

You don’t have to book in for a pedicure to get salon-level smooth feet. This callus remover gel gives you a professional-grade formula that removes rough skin and cracked heels while also helping to restore moisture to prevent dry skin from coming back. Currently on sale for 35% off, the callus remover works by soaking your feet in warm water before applying the gel over callused areas and letting it sit for three to seven minutes. Once the allotted time is up, you can use a pumice stone or rasp to gently remove the dead skin, and you’re ready for sandal season. The brand notes that you will want to wear gloves when applying the callus remover, and you’ll also need to purchase your pumice stone (or other scraping tool of choice) separately.

A Collagen-Boosting Elixir That Mimics A Post-Facial Glow

Even if you’re not familiar with London-based facialist Sarah Chapman, you’ve certainly admired the radiant complexions of her loyal celebrity following that includes Victoria Beckham and Meghan Markle. To bring some of that glow to your own skin care routine, Chapman developed this hybrid formula that’s packed with active ingredients aimed at hydrating the skin and boosting collagen production. Designed to be applied after you cleanse and before you put on your moisturizer, the serum-like elixir includes a mix of patented ingredients and longtime skin care favorites like retinyl palmitate (a form of vitamin A), grapeseed oil, rosehip fruit oil, and squalane.

A Lightweight Maxi Skirt For The Hottest Days Of Summer

When it’s too hot to function, skip the denim shorts and opt for this breezy maxi skirt instead. Made from a viscose fabric, the skirt is lightweight and silky-soft, and it includes a drawstring waist for a more comfortable fit. You can pair it with T-shirts and tanks all summer long, but it’s also a great transitional piece as the weather cools down when worn with booties and a turtleneck.

This 5-Minute Mask That Uses Turmeric Root Extract To Brighten

Model Miranda Kerr is behind this beauty award-winning skin care line, which sought to prioritize plant-based products and sustainability years before it became status quo. This exfoliating mask leaves you with noticeably brighter skin after a single five to 15-minute session, and uses turmeric root extract as its hero ingredient (it also gives the mask its golden color). While turmeric has brightening and anti-inflammatory benefits, the mask also contains papaya fruit extract and rosehip seeds to polish away dead skin cells that can otherwise contribute to a dull complexion. The mask is cruelty-free and vegan, and it’s also free from synthetic fragrance.

A Strappy Sandal Under $100

These strappy leather sandals will go perfectly with the maxi skirt mentioned earlier (or any maxi skirt in your collection). Currently on sale for $60, the versatile sandals can be worn with everything in your summer wardrobe, from denim shorts and T-shirts to midi dresses and maxi skirts. While fisherman style sandals are usually flat, these have a small block heel that’s still easy to wear but adds a more dressed up feel (and a little extra height).

  • Available sizes: 5 - 10

This Vacation-Ready Midi Dress That Comes In Four Colorful Prints

Whether you’re headed on a beach vacation or you just want to channel those tropical vibes all summer long, this bright, patterned dress is a must-have. The fitted bodice transitions into a fuller, tiered skirt that works just as well poolside as it does for an aperitivo. You can pull this dress right on and be out the door as there aren’t any zippers or buttons to deal with, and the wider straps mean you don’t have to worry about finding a strapless bra.

  • Available patterns: 4
  • Available sizes: US 2 - US 12

A Luxury Designer Dress That’s 70% Off

Ever fallen in love with a designer piece only to be crushed when you saw the price tag? You don’t have to worry about that with this maxi dress by Rebecca Vallance. While it usually retails for $645, the tiered design is presently on sale for 70% off, keeping the total just under $200. The mix of bold orange, yellow, and lavender colors already made this maxi dress a standout, but the open-tie back adds another striking detail (as do the front pockets).

  • Available sizes: UK 4 — UK 14 (US 0 — US 10)
