The first step on your movement journey for the rest of summer? A solid pair of sneakers. Not sure which ones to buy? Follow in the footsteps of Martha Stewart and grab Go Walk Arch Fit Skechers. You can see her sporting these crowd-pleasing, affordable kicks on Instagram, and right now, they start at a budget-friendly $44 (down from $85) thanks to an Amazon Prime Day deal.
Yahoo readers and Amazon shoppers alike can't get enough of these supremely comfortable shorts, which feature an adjustable drawstring waist and, very conveniently, pockets. They're made from a soft cotton blend (the black, navy and light gray options are 100% cotton!), and reviewers of all ages have been singing their praises. They've rarely dipped lower than this all year.
The best travel outfits are the ones that feel like pajamas but make us look put together, and this casual-chic tee and pants duo fits the bill. The pants have a drawstring waist that you can adjust to your comfort level, and the wide-leg design and cropped length help keep things airy on muggy days. With this markdown, you can grab select colors for just $24 — an all-time low.
Thick pants just won't cut it on those particularly humid days, but these trousers are made of a lightweight cotton-linen blend, making them airy and comfortable. You'll get a custom fit via the adjustable drawstring waist, and, maybe best of all, they have pockets. These No. 1 bestsellers are down to the lowest price I've seen.
Sunscreen is important year-round, but especially now, when we're spending more time outside and with more skin exposed. This one made it onto our list of the best SPFs for your face, and it's even approved by medical pros.
"This sunscreen has been clinically tested and shown to give better sunburn protection compared to sunscreens with lower SPFs," says Dr. Joshua Zeichner, a New York City-based dermatologist. Plus, it's formulated to absorb quickly without leaving a greasy residue and will cost you just seven bucks (over 45% off — mere cents more than its lowest price this year).
Thin, crepey skin sneaks up on us the older we get, and this cream — which I happen to be a fan of — was formulated to target just that. It's enriched with antioxidants, botanical ingredients and omega-fatty acids to help replenish skin's moisture for a firmer, plumper appearance. In a study conducted by the brand, 82% of participants said they noticed visible results on their arms and hands in two days. I have to say, it performs like a cream at least triple its price, so pick up a bottle while it'll set you back just $10.
Say cheese! Your journey to brighter teeth just got a lot easier, thanks to this whitening kit. All you do is apply the gel to your teeth via the pen for 30-60 minutes a day, and after five days, you should see a difference (as much as 10 shades whiter). You'll get about 30 treatments out of this pack, and at 60% off, this is one of the best prices I've seen it marked down to. Now that's something to smile about.
When you think of under-eye skin care that's actually effective, are you also envisioning large dollar signs? According to Senior Beauty Editor Jennifer Romolini, it doesn't cost a lot to give that area a glow-up. "If you're looking for a low-cost retinol treatment to help with dark pigmentation, this is for you," she says. "RoC is the premier name in over-the-counter retinol, and its eye cream is highly rated ... It's excellent for improving the appearance of both fine lines and dark circles, and it's dermatologist-recommended too. I only wish it contained more antioxidant, nourishing ingredients. But for the price, it honestly cannot be beat."
Speaking of price, this is about as low as we've seen it in months.
Your morning hair routine is about to get a lot easier, thanks to this multitasking tool. It dries and styles all at the same time, meaning you won't have to juggle a brush in one hand and a blow dryer in the other; use it to give yourself a sleek, smooth blowout or wavy curls. At just $40 (70% off), it's far more affordable than the Dyson Airwrap.
Why not swap the painful (and tedious) string floss for this oral-hygiene hero, which gently yet effectively uses a stream of water to dislodge anything trapped between your teeth. It was designed to be compact enough to travel with (it's cordless!), and this is as low as we've seen it since October. Plus, it includes four tips so the whole family can use it.
These machine-washable, podiatrist-approved kicks will keep you going all day long. This classic black pair with white soles is on sale too.
Two things you don't need: achy feet and smelly feet. Here's the dual prevention you do need.
Shoppers with foot problems rave about these sneakers, saying they're lightweight and easy to slip on and off. You can grab this all-white pair for nearly 40% off.

"They are slightly thicker than regular socks," revealed another shopper. "But that's because of the cushion, and it makes them so much more comfortable."
These sneakers rarely go on sale. We'd gladly add a pair to our carts at the regular price just to save our feet, but with this hefty Prime Day discount, we'll take multiples. (Note that prices vary by color and size.)
The OG influencer has been reinventing her brand in the last decade, dialing up her image with some playful Martha moments. We love it when she occasionally goes off script — making a few ripples in the pool with spicy selfies or hosting potlucks with Snoop Dogg for the ultimate dinner-party duo. But her partnership with Skechers means she enjoys the simple comfort of a cushy shoe, just like the rest of us.
"They have to be comfortable," Stewart said of shoes at the Skechers partnership launch. "I have to be able to walk, run, go up and down stairs, go around the block, chase the dog, take care of the chickens and horses — the list goes on ... I have a lot of responsibilities, so it's important the shoes I'm in are comfortable."
Martha has good reason to love Skechers' Go Walk Arch Fit kicks. The pillowy sneakers have a lightweight cushioned midsole and a removable insole that's podiatrist-certified, so you know you'll get the support you need. The insole molds to your feet to distribute your weight evenly and keep you comfortable during any activity.
"All of their designs and colors are loaded with cushioning and style," Stewart said of Skechers. "They're a natural for the home, garden and workplace."
The slip-on design isn't just stylish. The breathable mesh upper offers a sock-like fit that gets Martha's stamp of approval, and that means a lot coming from a woman whose daily exercise routine is a habit her parents encouraged.
"Exercise is a necessary part of the day," the 83-year-old former model told The New York Times. "You can be the most beautiful person on earth, and if you don't have a fitness or diet routine, you won't be beautiful."
More than 2,100 Amazon shoppers share Martha's love for these Skechers.
"Great arch support, lightweight shoe, and perfect for healing foot injuries," shared a rave reviewer. "The size is perfect for the foot with the healing broken bones and fractured ankle. It was shipped ... with a walking and exercise guide booklet from the Mayo Clinic. Easy slip-on shoes, no bending to tie shoe laces."
"I got these specifically for my morning walks," another five-star fan wrote. "They work very well in fit and comfort for my 77-year-old feet!"
"I have so many problems with my feet and I work on a concrete floor on them all day and have for over 20 years," shared a happy, hard-working shopper. "These shoes help them all with great arch support, lots of cushion and they are stretchy, so my feet don't get the burning sensation from the sides touching hard materials. The only drawback is maybe some more solid natural colors like brown or charcoal so they can be worn to look more casual than sporty when needed."
Comfort is king when it comes to these shoes, but reviewers still have a few minor qualms.
"I like the slip-on aspect, but the heel that comes up in the back is bothersome to me. I usually wear very low socks, and it just doesn't cut it with these shoes," wrote one wearer. "I'll try with different socks and see if I feel different."
Another reviewer noted, "The depth of this shoe is less than the Skechers I bought previously, and they are the same style. This means I cannot use my supportive insert. Otherwise, a good shoe."
How 'bout some "socks of the gods" to go with your new sneakers?
