Anker Laptop Power Bank for $88 ($47 Off)
This is our top power bank recommendation for anyone who wants to recharge anything other than a smartphone. The 25,000-mAh is plenty large (and still airline-compliant), and it can deliver up to 165 watts to two devices (100 watts for a single device). That’s enough to recharge a MacBook Air or even a Pro.

Our favorite wireless earbuds, the Nothing Ear (a) have a super-slick design with a semi-transparent charging case. They offer incredible value even at full-price, and this deal matches the best we’ve ever tracked. They’re lightweight and comfortable, with balanced sound that can be customized using the app. They also have excellent touch controls, solid battery life, and active noise canceling. They’re very hard to beat, especially at this price. —Louryn Strampe
CHI G2 Digital Flat Iron for $78 ($52 Off)
The G2 is an updated version of the original Chi flat iron, the first straightener to use ceramic plates. inspired by the ceramics inside Italian pizza ovens. Designed with titanium-infused ceramic plates, the G2 has dual voltage and a digital display that changes color with the temperature. Editor Kat Merck says it heats up in under a minute (which is fast) and remembers your last temperature setting. —Boutayna Chokrane

Starface Hydro-Stars Big Pack for $20 ($7 Off)
If I could thank Gen-Z for anything, it would be pimple patches. There used to be a time when zits meant pore-clogging makeup. Nowadays, if you have a pimple, slap a shiny yellow star on it. Call it the beautification of acne. Starface has triumphed in this industry, offering colorful star-shaped stickers that almost feel like an accessory. Do I color-coordinate with whatever outfit I’m wearing? Yes. Does that mean all my Starface stickers are black? Also, yes. But for $7 off, maybe I’ll start wearing yellow. —Boutayna Chokrane
