May is the month to show appreciation for our mothers, embrace the final stages of spring, and get ready for summer — which is why we’re sharing the best deals on items we’ve tested to give you a head start.

We’re always keeping our eyes peeled for discounts, no matter how big or small, on the products we know really work (something we decide after rigorous testing). And we found savings on some of our favorite warm weather-ready products at Amazon, including plush beach towels, top-performing sunscreens, and hardshell luggage.

From everyday essentials to vacation must-haves, these are the best deals on PEOPLE Tested products you can buy in May starting at $20.

Sun protection is important — take it from our director, Erin Johnson, who lives in Hawai’i and tested 54 sunscreens on her quest to find the best. The Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Spray beat out its 50+ competitors, and we spotted a three-pack of the SPF 70 spray on sale.

After wearing this every day on the beach and in the water, Johnson found that one bottle could last her two weeks with daily reapplications, which ended up being much longer than most. The chemical spray was non-greasy and felt light on her skin. Whether you’re reaching for this spray at the beach or every day, you’re sure to get your money’s worth, especially since a bottle is only $9 when you buy in bulk.

When Oprah talks, we listen. So when she added this travel jewelry box to her list of Favorite Things in 2022, we knew we had to try it for ourselves. Equipped with a built-in mirror, adjustable dividers, and designated compartments for rings, earrings, necklaces, and more, this organizer is the perfect travel companion for w -

eekends away or quick trips.

We liked that this plush box included slits for our rings instead of an inconvenient bar (requiring you to take every ring off to get the one you want) and that the case comes with a microfiber cleaning cloth.

Comfy sandals are paramount for a summer wardrobe, and this pair provided both the cushion and style we were looking for. What stood out first was their resemblance to the celeb-worn Birkenstock sandals. But we were later impressed by how surprisingly supportive the cork insoles were, molding to our feet over time.

These slides have thick suede straps with metal buckles and come in 22 colors, including natural-looking leather hues and fun patterns like leopard. If you’ve been wanting Birks without having to splurge, try this pair instead at a fraction of the cost.

With summer swiftly approaching, we’re expecting trails of sand, dirt, and grass to get tracked into our homes after days of sunny adventures. But thanks to this top-performing Kenmore vacuum, we’re more than prepared. Out of 350 vacuums we tested, it was one of the best, and it’s on sale for just $95.

This lightweight, powerful vacuum was easy to maneuver into even the tightest corners and ran smoothly across tile, carpet, and rugs. Its HEPA filter was an extra perk, keeping the dust, allergens, and other general irritants out of the air and inside the canister, which was super easy to clean.

The good deals on great products don’t end there. Keep scrolling for more discounted items we’ve tested that will get you ready for your best summer yet.
