As temperatures soar, our shopping team has curated a list of essential cooling products to help you stay comfortable during the heatwave. From innovative fans to breathable sleepwear, these items are designed to lower body temperature and provide relief from the heat. With Amazon Prime Day deals in full swing, many of these products are available at discounted prices.
Nisha's Pick: Shark FlexBreeze HydroGo Misting Fan
Nisha Mal, Senior Consumer Journalist, recommends the Shark FlexBreeze HydroGo Misting Fan, priced from £129.99. Initially skeptical, she was convinced after trying her sister's unit, which is used in a hot loft bedroom. The fan combines a powerful fan with a misting function, delivering bursts of cold air. It has a runtime of up to 12 hours at speed 1 and 3.5 hours at speed 3, suitable for indoor and outdoor use. While it has sold out on the Shark Ninja website, it remains in stock on Amazon. A downside is that it is a floor fan without a detachable stand. As a cheaper alternative, Nisha suggests the Schallen Chrome Floor Fan at £34.99.
Lucy's Pick: Summer Fridays Skin Soothing Hydration Mist
Lucy Addicott, Lifestyle Writer, recommends the Summer Fridays Jet Lag Skin Soothing Hydration Mist, priced at £21. This ultra-fine mist soothes and hydrates parched skin without irritation or greasiness. It doubles as a cooling refresher throughout the day. Lucy keeps a bottle on her desk for a midday pick-me-up and suggests storing it in the fridge for extra cooling. The 50ml bottle is travel-friendly.
Narin's Top Pick: Bedsure Cooling Blanket
Narin Flanders, Head of Affiliates, swears by the Bedsure 100% Cotton Muslin Bed Throw, currently £40.36 (down from £49.99) during Amazon Prime Day. This breathable blanket is lightweight and soft, similar to a giant muslin. It comes in various sizes and colors; Narin chose a neutral beige king-size. The blanket allows for comfortable sleep without overheating.
Narin's Second Pick: Oodie Sleep Tee
Narin also recommends the Oodie sleep tee, now £32.50 (down from £65). Made of moisture-wicking material, it feels cooler than sleeping naked. Despite its lack of style, it offers comfort during hot nights. With the Oodie summer sale offering up to 62% off, prices start as low as £25.
Lauren's Pick: Cotton Pyjamas
Lauren Codling, Senior Affiliates Writer, prefers cotton pyjamas for staying cool. She recommends Piglet in Bed's cotton boxer shorts, now £24 (down from £35). Cotton is naturally breathable and lightweight. She also rates The White Company's sleepwear, such as the Cotton Poplin Piped Shortie Pyjamas at £45 (down from £75).
Nisha's Pick: Stanley Quencher
Nisha also highlights the Stanley Quencher Flowstate Stainless-Steel Bottle 1.18L in primrose glow, reduced to £30. It keeps liquids cold for 11 hours, hot for seven hours, and iced for two days. For a cheaper option, the CherryKerry 1.2-litre Tumbler is available on Amazon for £11.99 in various colors.
