It's been a very long time since I've spent as much time outside in the summer as I have been this year. I live in the South where temperatures hover around 100 degrees and humidity levels are off the charts this time of year. But given the Covid-19 pandemic, it's safer to be outdoors, whether it's for exercise, dining, or social (distanced) meet-ups. Hence the reason why I find myself outdoors more than ever, which I'm guessing might be the case for you as well.
On a pretty regular basis this summer, I've found myself desperately searching Amazon for items that offer some relief from the oppressive heat, and I've come up pretty successful. Among my orders and in my Saved For Later cart are plenty of clothing items and accessories, cooling beauty products, and functional items like water bottles and personal fans.
Keep scrolling to shop the Amazon finds that are helping me get through summer 2020 without melting.
