Amazon’s Labor Day sale is one of the biggest shopping events to close out the summer, so it’s hard not to do a little shopping of your own, especially when top brands are on sale for such low prices.
As an Amazon Shopping Expert at Real Simple, I professionally hunt down the best deals every day. And because I check out the highest prices, I can tell you I save big when I shop for myself. Case in point: Labor Day sales at Gap, Maybelline, Le Creuset, and Cadence. Right now, they’re offering up to 65% off home, fashion, and kitchen items, but it’s unclear how long they’ll last.
Our editors’ favorite Amazon Labor Day sales
Gap Pocket T-shirt Dress
Amazon
I’ve been seeing Gap’s t-shirt dresses everywhere, but since they’re only $14, I’m going to take the plunge and buy one. I wear one of their shirts almost every day, and this loose-fitting dress is a longer version so I can complete an outfit in one piece. The dress features a crew neck, short sleeves, and small chest pocket detail. The relaxed fit makes it comfortable to wear all day. I plan on pairing it with a chunky cardigan and denim jacket when the weather cools down.
Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Washable Mascara
Amazon
I just finished my last tube of Maybelline mascara and need another one. I keep using Lash Sensational Mascara because the flexible bristles coat all of my lashes, making me look “awake” even at 7am. I also love that the liquid formula is lengthening and clump-free.
Miulee Striped Corduroy Pillowcase
Amazon
Miulee’s textured covers are an easy way to add a seasonal touch to your cushions. They have a hidden zipper so you can slip them over your existing cushions, so you don’t have to buy a whole new set of cushions. I also love the corduroy style of these covers, especially in the autumnal rust color.
Le Creuset Pumpkin Mini Cocotte
Amazon
Speaking of fall, Le Creuset’s mini cocotte is on trend. The pumpkin design is super cute, even with fruit leaves and stems. It looks great on your countertop, but the cocotte is more than just a decorative item. This stoneware dish can also be used to serve nuts and snacks, or to cook dips in the oven.
Saodimars cap sleeve knit top
Amazon
This stylish knit top is the perfect piece to wear now and into fall. The cap sleeves, high neck, and sweater-like material make it super fashionable. I also love the exposed stitching on the front and sleeves, which gives it a unique look. This top comes in a variety of fall-like colors, including dark green, brown, orange, and khaki.
Cadence Travel Container Skin Care Set
Amazon
After trying out the Cadence Bodycare Set, I’m hooked. This set has been instrumental in my skincare routine while on vacation. The set comes with three containers for cleanser, moisturizer, and facial sunscreen (or whatever else you need). Like the original set, this set is leak-proof and has a magnetic design so you can find everything in your makeup bag at once.
Wonderwin Silicone Heel Protector
Amazon
Okay, I’ll admit it. I was inspired. I saw a post about putting heel protectors on boots and I knew I had to get a pair. These heel protectors are made of silicone that go around your foot to protect your heel and ankle — the areas where I usually get blisters. I can’t wait to try them out on my 8-year-old Dr. Martens that I’m trying to break in.
