29 June Bestsellers R29 Readers Are Carting For Summer
According to our anonymous shopping data, June was all about the three P's: Pride, papas, and price cuts.In honor of the month-long LGBTQIA+ celebration, we wrangled queer-owned brands killing it in their industries — in addition to a handful of products that affirmed R29 editors' queerness. Plus, we scavenged unique presents for our favorite father figures. And, all kinds of exclusive discount codes made their way onto our front page. TLDR: 'Twas a month of bountiful Refinery29-reader shopping carts.
But, what's an R29 bestsellers roundup without new-and-notable Lululemon finds, Taylor Swift shoutouts, and undeniably odd Amazon hacks? Yes, a pair of the famed activewear retailer's joggers made its debut on our list as well as Phoebe Bridgers' newest jewelry collaboration, and a nine-in-one multitool pen. To top it off, Our Place added a fantastical air-fryer to its inventory (that we, of course, tested out) and Kylie Jenner dropped brand-new lip balms (that we also reviewed). Scroll on for Refinery29 readers' top-bought products in June. Whether you score some dermatologist-approved sunscreen, the summer dress of the hour, or another must-have is all up to you.

Picking the perfect travel outfit is no easy task — hot airports, ice-cold planes, hectic TSA procedures, etc. Our affiliate editor, Marshall Bright, suggests Summersalt's supple matching sweatsuit for smooth travels. She writes, "I even wear [this set] traveling in the summer because you never know how cold a plane will be, and while I won’t lay out on a beach in the set later, it’s light enough that I don’t immediately want to rip it off my body when I land."

Skims Sculpting Bralette
Skims' top-bought bralette is where comfort meets structure. If you're craving more support in your intimates without the underwire like our senior writer, Karina Hoshikawa, then this is the bra for you. "This Skims bralette is super-comfortable yet holds everything in place without feeling like I'm wearing an Ace bandage," Hoshikawa raves. "(It also manages to separate the ta-ta's so you don't end up with the dreaded sports bra uni-boob situation.)" Just make sure to size up!

Iroha Mini Intimate Massager
Iroha's waterproof Mini is all about heating things up when you're cooling down in the shower, bath, or — hey — pool. Even H2O can't make this compact toy malfunction nor can it subdue its powerful vibrations.

Kylie Cosmetics Tinted Butter Balm
Kylie Jenner's new buttery lip balm looks every bit as good as it feels, according to Refinery29 editors, that is. A handful of us tested out its buildable tints and glossy finishes in June. The result? Moisturized, pigmented, and luminous lips for days (and numerous Refinery29-reader buys).

Miaou Leia Corset
Dress this top-rated cow corset up for nights out or keep it casual. And, if dairy isn't your thing, it comes in three other calm colorways or an equally eye-catching newspaper print.
When the makers of the internet-famous Always Pan debut an adult Easy Bake Oven (aka, Our Place's first-ever kitchen appliance), we don't walk we run to cook a salmon dinner in it. This groovy gadget bakes, air-fries, broils, reheats, roasts, and toasts all in one 12-liter compartment. One crispy bread loaf, juicy salmon, and a batch of broccoli later, and we now "implore you to buy Our Place's Wonder Oven."

June is when things really start to heat up so we launched Sun Blocked: Refinery29’s lecture-free global call to action to acknowledge the serious dangers of tanning.

Although this bold Brazilian collaboration came about in May, Refinery29 readers snatched up more pieces than ever in June—specifically, this pair of summer-ready statement shorts.
Sad indie girls got to finally crack a smile in June thanks to Phoebe Bridgers' jewelry collaboration with Catbird.

Couplet Coffee The Mooka Pot
If you've heard of that little phenomenon called Pride, then you also know June is for the gays.

Couplet Coffee's adorable Mooka Pot was (understandably) quite the hit among readers.

Hay Recycled Mixed Colour Crate
How do Refinery29's tidiest Shopping editors keep their life together enough to meet deadlines? Handy organization products like Hay's cute multipurpose crates. Our affiliate strategist, Kate Spencer, can't get enough of their versatility, "I love these fun crates by Hay," she writes. "They come in multiple sizes and colors and fold flat(!) for easy stacking/storing/moving. I use the small size on my kitchen countertop to house my cooking oils, vinegars, and salts; a medium size in my bathroom for extra toilet paper rolls; and a few in my cabinets for miscellaneous snacks — you get the idea!"

Etronik Gym Bag
Weekenders make the spontaneous traveler's world go round. But they can cost you a pretty penny. If you're saving your bucks for a summer adventure and not an expensive bag, check out this TikTok-viral Amazon duffel. It's so impressive, our well-traveled senior travel writer, Venus Wong, mentions "designer luggage brands might have a worthy contender to worry about." A bold and intriguing statement, indeed.
In June our U.K. team wondered, "Are Mejuri's pieces as well-crafted and long-lasting as they promise to be?" After several months of snoozes, showers, and wear, the allegedly tarnish-free accessories are...editor-approved!

Numerous Refinery29 readers took note and added a few packs to their next Amazon haul.
Beach day? Don't forget your towel, sunscreen, sunglasses, wallet, frisbee — honestly, just don't forget a reliable beach bag to hold all your coastal essentials.
Eucerin is a household name in the lotion and sunscreen space. With over 8,000 reviews and a 4.7-out-of-5-star rating, we think the brand's SPF 30 formula is worth a try. One Amazon reviewer applauds its moisturizing properties, "I have eczema so my skin is really dry, but this is perfect for my skincare routine. It [lasts] years if you use [it] only on your face. I was skeptical thinking it would break me out but it honestly cleared my skin up even more."

Some call them under-$100 editors' picks; we call them our monthly MVPs. The top-bought May MVP was the Berny Gold Watch. For our affiliate coordinator, Becca Sax, it's the ultimate way to complete an outfit and a "simple, classic, and gold" must-have.
Refinery29's senior writer Karina Hoshikawa raved about these funky functional glasses back in 2022, and now our senior travel writer Venus Wong also recommends. "These glasses look pretty goofy, but hear me out: They were the only thing that kept me from retching during a painfully long ride to the Hamptons through NYC traffic," she says. "The movement of the blue liquid creates the illusion of a horizon on the corner of my eyes, making me feel a lot less dizzy when I had through motion sickness."

Our exclusive discount with the Canadian-American appliance powerhouse Shark has unfortunately run dry, but based off our affiliate coordinator Becca Sax's glowing review, its high-tech hair dryer is worth every penny.
