What Mashable reporters and editors are buying on Prime Day 2025

by Kylie Bower


This week, Mashable’s reporters and editors have spent hundreds of collective hours tracking down Amazon’s best Prime Day deals. (And we’re not done yet!) We’ve been scouting record-lows on our favorite products, cross-checking prices with competing retailers like Walmart, monitoring deep discounts in case they sell out, and flagging different ways to help our readers shop smart. Along the way, we’ve also been adding some goodies to our carts.

A common theme: Most of us are stocking up on discounted everyday essentials like skincare, baby supplies, and cat litter. Naturally though, there are a a couple “why not, it’s on sale” impulse buys sprinkled in. After all, headphones prices are insane this Prime Day, and we’re only human.

Below, find the eight products the Mashable team has picked up on Prime Day so far.

1. Some butter yellow headphones

Deputy Shopping and Reviews Editor Miller Kern told me she snagged these “gorgina” Sony headphones “because I wanted some cheap headphones for walks and I’m obsessed with the color.” They’re a low-stakes buy at just $38, which is a new record low.

2. And some Apple AirPods for good measure

Kern also grabbed a pair of Apple AirPods 4, which have fallen to a new all-time low of $89 at Amazon and Walmart. (The ANC and Pro versions are also cheaper than ever, for what it’s worth.) She’ll be giving them to her boyfriend: “He exclusively uses wired Apple earbuds for his runs, but he hates the way they tangle,” she said.

3. TikTok’s favorite brush for wavy hair

Shopping Reporters Leah Stodart and Bethany Allard both bought the Bounce Curl Define EdgeLift Brush, which people on TikTok endorse for its ability to bring out curls in naturally wavy hair. Mashable Contributor Christina Buff also has it in her cart. I can’t help but wonder… Should I be buying a Bounce Curl Define EdgeLift Brush? (This is its lowest price to date, by the way.)

4. A three-pack of mascara remover

This one was another no-brainer for Allard. Her favorite waterproof mascara remover “usually runs me like $12-14 for one [tube],” she said, “so this [three-pack] is a steeeeaaal” at $25-ish. “My most stubborn waterproof mascara hates to see me pull out this blue tube,” she shared. It appears to be on sale for the first time ever.

5. Some fancy moisturizer

Stodart has been using this moisturizer on and off since 2021. “I was struggling with weird little rough red patches all over my face and heard that it was super gentle and good for compromised skin barriers,” she said. “It was literally the only product that didn’t burn my skin for a while.” A 3.4-ounce bottle is $51 on the Stratia website, but 20% off on Amazon during Prime Day. It’s never gone on sale there before.

6. A huge bundle of diapers and baby wipes

Having covered Prime Day for nine years now, Special Projects Editor Nicole Cammorata is a pro at scoping sales. She found these Pampers diapers and baby wipes listed individually at other stores to verify that Amazon’s bundle “really is a good deal.” Indeed, it’s never been cheaper before this week.

7. Ten pounds of natural kitty litter

Per Stodart, who owns two cats, you can’t go wrong with a $10 ten-pound bag of “classic CCL (corn cob litter).” It gets a few cents cheaper if you sign up for recurring deliveries, too.

8. A gigantic Yankee candle

Kern restocked her favorite Yankee Candle in the scent Pink Sands. “It’s like very fresh and clean smelling, but also slightly fruity,” she told me. It’s one of nearly two dozen 22-ounce Yankee candles that are deeply discounted for Prime Day.
