An electric toothbrush is definitely one item you need to have in your life - they can remove more plaque and improve gum health than a manual toothbrush, reducing the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. This Phillips model claims to remove up to seven times more plaque than a manual, and it has a special stain-removing system for whiter teeth

Catherine Zeta-Jones and Reese Witherspoon are both fans of Elizabeth Arden's mighty Eight Hour cream - which calms, protects and hydrates skin for up to eight hours, and can be applied at any time of the day. With a saving like this, it's the right time to stock up. Our Senior Lifestyle Editor Karen Silas loves it. She says: “I am the queen of multitasking beauty and skincare products - and this cream is right up there on my list. I’ve used it for everything from lip balm to soothing eczema patches. And when I heard about Prince Harry’s reference to it in Spare I was like, ‘Wow, you can really use it for everything!’”

If you’ve been hiding under a rock for the past few years, you might have missed the air fryer revolution - but chances are you already know about the health benefits and energy-saving properties of these lean mean cooking machines. Ninja are hailed as among the best, and our Deputy Online Editor Sharnaz Shahid loves hers. I've been using the Ninja air fryer for the past three years, and it's something I use every single day, she says. “It takes far less time to cook with brilliant results - crispy food rather than a sloppy microwave version. It's really easy to use and simple to clean.”

Everyone has a tablet these days, but if you love reading books, you can’t beat a Kindle! I got one before I even got a smartphone back in the day, and I still love it for reading. This model has a 6.8” display and thinner borders, an adjustable warm light and up to 10 weeks of battery life. Amazon Prime Day is a great time to pick one up!

Simba’s mattresses are among the most in-demand on Amazon  - and you won’t find a better price than this 45% discount they’re offering for Prime Day. The double measures 135 x 190cm and features five comfortable layers including aeorocoil micro springs and foam. They’re good for front, side and back sleepers in equal measures. There’s a 10-year guarantee and a 200-night trial for extra peace of mind.

It’s very rare to see an iPhone 14  with a 10% discount, so if you’re wanting one, this price is excellent. This is the 128GB model and it comes in red, blue, midnight black, purple, starlight and yellow. I have the 12 Pro edition and I’m tempted by this offer just to be able to use the cinematic video function which the pre-13 models don’t have. It also has all-day battery life and up to 20 hours of video playback.

Stacey Solomon loves Elemis’ collagen cream – this is the revolutionary overnight version which has fancy drone peptide technology and Padina Pavonica algae to fight wrinkles and keep skin smooth and radiant. I’m a big fan of Elemis products, and though I haven’t tried this particular cream, it’s been well received at Amazon, with over 1.7k positive reviews and an impressive 4.7 five-star rating.

You’d be hard-pressed to find a better price for one of Mrs Hinch’s beloved vacuums than this! This Shark cleaner has anti-hair wrap technology and it transforms into a portable vacuum. It has over 1200 glowing reviews on Amazon. Our Senior Lifestyle Editor Karen Silas loves hers. She says: "It's lightweight, you can separate the battery to charge it so you don't have to plug in the whole vacuum, it has amazing suction power on both wood floors and carpet, and I absolutely love the easy-to-detach handheld vacuum."

If you’re planning a home or garden spruce up – or if you want to get your messy car in order – this nifty little cleaning machine is a lifesaver. It’s another product Stacey Solomon swears by – and she uses it to clean everything!

If your kids are anything like mine, they probably already know how to use Alexa (I always tell them off for asking the time instead of reading the clock!) the Echo Dot Kids speaker has a whole range of new child-friendly content. They can ask for a story, play music even get help with their homework! It comes with a one-year subscription to Amazon Kids (after that it’s £3.99 a month) and two-year warranty.

The benefits of satin pillows are many. They are easy to clean, they reduce the formation of wrinkles, and are gentler on hair, because they reduce breakage, tangles, and frizz. Satin is also hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mites, making it a good choice for people with allergies or sensitive skin. Snap up this set in the Amazon sale - they're available in practically every colour you could want, too!

Discounts on Apple products are few and far between, so if you have been eyeing up some Apple AirPods it’s a good idea to take advantage of this Amazon sale price now. Our reviewer loves the 'find' function as he's prone to leaving them at work, and says they fit his smaller ears perfectly compared to other brands which have fallen out or been uncomfortable.

If you’ve yet to join the air fryer party, Tower’s family-size model is a great option. It cooks up to 30% faster thanks to its rapid air circulation and you can use little to no fat, making it a much healthier option. You also save up to 70% on your energy bill as it uses much less power than a conventional oven.

Apple sales are few and far between, but there are some great deals up for grabs at Amazon on Prime Day. If you've always wanted an iPad, or if you need an upgrade, this is your chance. This is the 2021 model but it still holds up well, it has a great 10.2” Retina display, stereo speakers and up to 10 hours of battery life. It also works with the 1st generation Apple pencil.

Non-Slip Velvet Hangers are a must for fashion fans - they’re slimline, measuring just 6mm in width so you can fit almost double the number of clothes in your wardrobe. The slimline hangers’ velvet texture stops clothes from slipping off, plus the hangers also rotate 360 degrees to fit in any space, and they can hold up to 5kg each. 

Our Senior Lifestyle Editor Karen Silas loves hers. “I switched to velvet hangers after moving into a new place with much less closet space - heavy and bulky wooden hangers are now banned in my wardrobe! The hangers are so slim that they save a ton of space and are perfect for hanging all of those pieces that have a tendency to slip off, like strappy tops and dresses. And you can buy these handy velvet hanger clips if you want to hang trousers or skirts, or hang pieces together. Plus they’re not too expensive, so it’s a win-win.”
