October’s speedy two-day Prime Day is nearly over, and it has been stacked with all-time-low prices on a ton of great products (from fashion to beauty to travel to home) as well as standard discounts on several Strategist favorites. Our team has spent the past 24 hours patrolling Amazon’s deal pages and has seen pretty much everything there is to see — but we can’t close the sale without bringing you a final roundup of discounts you shouldn’t miss.
I zoomed out, picking the best of the best from each category — super-low discounts, rare sales, crème de la crème products, best sellers — and compiled them below. Plus a few of our team’s favorites because I can’t help myself.
The sale ends tonight at 2:59 a.m. ET. Some of these items may stay discounted afterward, but no promises — best to catch the deals while they’re certain. Check out the full list of Strategist-approved deals in our Prime Day hub.

We were shocked to see tech writer Jordan McMahon’s favorite robot vacuum/mop this discounted for Prime Day. “It’s better at cleaning floors than our previous picks and powerful enough to suck fur out of thick carpets, plus it has a mopping function that would have been reserved for a more expensive robot several years ago,” he says.

We’ve seen the price of this popular snail-mucin essence as low as $13, but only around major sale events like Prime Day and Black Friday. Now’s still a good time to buy it if you’re interested because it probably won’t dip lower than $25 until the next big sale moment.

Last Prime Day was Charlotte Tilbury’s inaugural big sale, so I’m betting it will continue to be discounted on rare occasions. The Lip Cheat liner is a favorite of makeup artist Amanda Thesen, who says it feels “just emollient enough where it’s not going to move, but it’s not drying or skipping, either.”

Grab a value size of the brand’s shampoo, too, which we named the best smoothing shampoo. “No matter the hair texture or type, it detangles with ease, moisturizes immediately, and doesn’t leave hair feeling heavy with product,” one salon owner says.

Cocofloss is a dentist favorite — mine recently recommended I make the switch — because it’s great at removing plaque but also comes in tasty flavors like coconut. Ideal for someone who doesn’t like strong mint flavors (guilty). Restock now because it rarely goes on sale.
