In the world of hair dryers, the Dyson Supersonic is considered the gold standard. But it comes with a $429 price tag, putting it out of reach for most people. However ... there's an alternative on sale for $28 with Prime that shoppers swear holds its own against the mighty Supersonic. It's from the folks at Loveps, and it belongs in your cart, pronto.
Listen, it's not the cutest packaging we've ever seen, but reviewers say it's the formula inside that really counts.
Amazon's No. 1 bestselling eye cream is formulated to reduce dryness and the appearance of dark circles and puffiness. It's also fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, noncomedogenic and our pick for the best drugstore eye cream of 2024.
One shopper tried it on an ophthalmologist's advice: "This eye cream was recommended to me by my eye doctor because I have very sensitive skin around my eyes that burns and peels. I have tried all the expensive department store brands and nothing helped. CeraVe was a miracle! It is very soothing and moisturizing. Makes the skin under my eyes smooth and supple again."
When Martha Stewart leaked her beauty product faves on her website in 2022, this glow-enhancing priming lotion was among the top of the list. Stewart says she applies this formula to her face after SPF to add dewiness and create "a smooth canvas for makeup." Infused with glycerin and shea butter, the lotion helps hydrate and moisturize skin while enhancing its natural glow.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards swears by this hair elixir which she says gives her mane "the look and feel of 3,000 more strands." Right now, it's at the lowest price I've seen.
The lightweight, nonsticky spray is made with keratin, collagen and biotin and — according to both Richards and numerous five-star reviewers — it effectively boosts volume along with strengthening fine, thin hair. "I have tried three other spray-in hair thickeners and this is the only one that has truly made my hair feel fuller," raved one five-star fan. "The price is also reasonable. I can't afford super pricey hair products that I use daily."
If you'd like fuller-looking tresses, choosing hair products formulated with biotin can help strengthen thinning hair and even promote growth. This duo contains powerhouse ingredients like camellia extract for shine and caffeine and niacinamide to improve blood circulation. This is close to the lowest price we've ever seen.
This lightweight hair dryer even has a foldable handle, which helps make it a great travel companion, shoppers say.
Um, you saw what we said above about this hair dryer being comparable to the pricey Dyson, right? Oh, and this particular model is also only available at Amazon — you won't find it marked down cheaper elsewhere.
The Loveps hair dryer offers a lot of perks to help you get a sleek, salon-worthy blowout. For starters, it uses ionic technology to reduce frizz and ramp up the shine as it dries, giving you a smooth look.
It also boasts 1,800 watts of power to help you get the level of wind power you want. Toggle between low and high speeds, along with three heat settings for a customized blow-dry experience. Worth noting: A slew of shoppers swear this dryer is quiet, even at high speeds.
There's even a foldable handle, so you can make your dryer compact for easy storage or travel. The dryer comes with its own diffuser and concentrator nozzle that attach magnetically, allowing you to do curly or straight styles. Plus, you can choose from multiple colors, though you'll get the best savings in purple and pastel pink among other shades if you're a Prime shopper.
With more than 3,700 perfect reviews, this hair dryer is a fan favorite among Amazon shoppers.
"I was so surprised with the quality of this blow dryer!" raved a satisfied reviewer. "It's a bargain at the price they are charging. I love the magnetic attachments! The handle twists to fold down to make it super compact and easy to pack for travel. It's powerful, not super noisy, sleek, very close to the very expensive Dyson."
"I want to start out by saying that I have a LOT of hair," said a second shopper. "It's thick and long, so I usually let it air dry because I hate how long it takes to blow dry. With that said, I do have times when I have no other option than to blow dry my hair, especially since I recently cut curtain bangs that require more styling. ... I was instantly attracted to this because it reminded me of one that Dyson sells, but it is way too expensive for a hair dryer. Figured I'd give this a try and I love it! I am shocked at how light it is and how quiet it is. I was so used to my old one that I just thought that's how all hair dryers were, but boy was I wrong! Very happy with this purchase for a small fraction of the cost of these other brands."
"This hair dryer fits well in my hand, isn't heavy at all," wrote another grateful user. "The dryer does a great job drying my hair. Let me add another great point. I have issues sometimes holding objects due to arthritis and wrist pain. This works really well for me. It not heavy and not a huge dryer and fits well in my hand."
"I had a Dyson blow dryer and it broke. ... For an almost $500 blow dryer, it should outlast $50 blow dryers from Target," said a convert. "This blow dryer is not a Dyson, but comparing it to a Dyson, it almost is. It's a bit heavier, the look is a bit more plastic than sleek, and performance is less strong on the airflow. So, it takes a few minutes longer to blow dry. The results are very similar, and overall, it's super close to the Dyson. I would give it 8/10 for how similar it is."
A few users say their strands have gotten tangled in this dryer's intake. "This is really the perfect blow dryer for my needs," said one. "Only drawback is that every once in a while my hair would get caught in the vent at other end of dryer, but I was able to get it out without ripping my hair out of my head."
"I thought it could be hotter, but it actually dried my thick hair rather quickly without extreme heat that would cause damage. Only gave four stars because my hair gets caught," agreed another. "It's been virtually impossible to find a dryer that doesn't do this."
"No cold-burst option was a big surprise," a final reviewer said. "However, the sleek design, portability and power make up for that missing function."
