Deals On Our Editors’ Favorite Products August 2025

Managing editor Emmy Favilla has been hunting for the perfect Goldilocks bag: “I have long been on a search of a bag that is acceptable to wear to dinners with friends, press events and other situations that aren’t necessarily fancy but where my go-to tote just isn’t the right fit,” she says. The bag also needs enough space to hold the essentials, plus extras—like a book—for her daily commute. The Caraa Bindle delivers on all fronts, and more, including a water-repellent design that really shines in New York’s fickle weather. Use code FORBESLABORDAY to save 30% on three colors of the chic bag, which isn’t included in the brand’s sitewide Labor Day event. 

Finding a good facial sunscreen can be a challenge for anyone with sensitive skin. Updates writer Claire Epting says she often struggles to find a formula that doesn’t cause breakouts, but she loves Beekman 1802’s Solar Milk. The fragrance-free formula includes nourishing ingredients like goat, coconut and rice milk, as well as antioxidant-rich pink algae. “[The sunscreen also] doubles as a primer under foundation, which I love since I’m always trying to simplify my makeup routine,” she says. The brand is having a sitewide sale for Labor Day, but this is a chance to save extra on this skincare favorite. 

Baby and kids gear editor Esther Carlstone says she is obsessed with her dog’s Ruggable bed. “It’s super easy to clean and put back together, fits in with my living room décor and feels like my pup got an upgraded mattress.” If you want to treat your pet to a something special, code FORBESVETTED saves 15% on the bestseller in all patterns and colorways, now through Aug. 29. 

If your dog is a power chewer, Favilla understands your woes: “My beefy, 70-pound American Bully plows through chews in record time, even the ones that carry the ‘long-lasting chew’ description,” she says. The Redbarn Bully Sticks are one of the few chews that keep him occupied for an extended period of time. She also appreciates that they’re poultry-free (since he’s allergic to chicken) and not oily and smelly like some classic dog chew recipes. The 20% discount works on the entire Bully Stick line through Sept. 1, so you can try a few.

Senior updates editor Karen Tietjen isn’t entirely sold on Caraway’s ceramic nonstick pots and pans. “Whille [they’re] are all the rage, they’re not super durable for avid home cooks, in my experience,” she says. However, she feels differently about the brand’s stainless steel cookware line: “So far, it’s performed beautifully, heats quickly and evenly, and offers the durability we need for all the cooking we do in our household.” Code FORBES10 saves you 33% on a 12-piece set, which includes a fry pan, sauce pan, sauté pan, Dutch oven and storage organizers. 

Deals editor Maya Gandara believes in prioritizing comfort: “I recently got this pajama set, and I’ve basically been living in it every evening since,” she says. “It feels super lightweight (a must for a hot sleeper like me) and has a roomy, incredibly cozy fit.” The bottoms also have pockets, a major plus for loungewear. She chose the Pacific Gingham print and says “it’s so stylish, they barely even look like pajamas.”

A gua sha is a simple skincare tool for anyone looking to step up their daily routine. Tietjen calls this Pink Moon design an ideal set for newbies. “It includes a beautiful stone, a wonderful-smelling facial oil and a pamphlet on how to get started,” she says. “I find it really helps relax my facial muscles, where I told a lot of tension.” Code FORBES15 will save you an additional 15% on this already discounted set, as well as 15% off sitewide. 

Epting’s favorite companion through these long sunny days have been her Sardine sunnies. “I’m all about protecting my eyes from the summer sun, and these shades from Sardine are top-notch,” she says. “They’re ethically sourced and produced in small batches, and the color options are refreshingly unique. This particular style has a hint of vintage flair, and gets bonus points for the cute, colorful case the glasses arrive in.” Use code FORBES15 to try a pair for 15% off now through the weekend.

After inheriting two senior cats earlier this year, Favilla has been looking for a litter that prioritizes odor control. “I heard about Boxiecat and since I’ve started using it, it’s become my new favorite,” she says. “The formula I use puts probiotics to work to keep odors at bay, and I appreciate that the litter is unscented and also made without artificial clumping agents. Most important: It really comes through on its long-lasting odor-control promise.” If you’re looking for something specific, the brand offers a quiz on its site that can figure out the best formula for your home. (Code FORBES30 works on the entire Probiotic Litter collection.)

“I’m new to the air-dried dog food game,” says Epting, “but I recently had the opportunity to feed my dog Full Moon’s Pure Protein Air Dried Chicken Recipe and I’m so impressed by the quality. I actually use the bite-size chunks as training treats and I even stick a few inside my dog’s puzzle toy, and she gets so excited every time.” Like many of the best brands right now, Full Moon uses human-grade ingredients and no artificial preservatives, an extra bonus for your furry family member. Code FORBES30 will take 30% off all of Full Moon’s air-dried recipes and treats through Sept. 1.
