October Prime Day (technically called Prime Big Deal Days) is happening now through October 7, and you can stock your cart with notable deals on brands like Medicube, Lysol and Waterpik, all under $50 and exclusive to Prime members. Whether you’re getting an early start on holiday shopping or stocking up on everyday essentials, you can shop sales on household items, beauty products, vacuums and more without breaking the bank.
I’ve covered shopping events like Amazon Prime Day, Black Friday and Cyber Monday for over five years as an editor for NBC Selected, so I know how to find deals that are actually worth buying. I spent weeks combing through thousands of discounts to find the best October Prime Day deals under $50 — each one I recommend below is highly rated and 20 percent off or more, as well as at its lowest price in at least three months. I’ll frequently update this list throughout Prime Big Deal Days with editor-approved picks.

After reviewing Medicube for months, our NBC Selected editors determined it’s actually worth the hype. Right now, Amazon is discounting a ton of the brand’s bestselling products, including the Booster Pro X2, Deep Vitamin C Capsule Cream, Salmon PDRN Pink Collagen Jelly Gel Mask and Collagen Night Wrapping Mask. This cream has a light, jelly-like texture and has a pink tint at first, but dries down to a transparent finish after you apply it.

I have multiple Casper pillows I use every night; they’re incredibly soft, breathable and durable (they’ve lasted me multiple years without any snags or rips). I also love that they keep their shape, so I don’t have to worry about constantly fluffing them. This pillow has a medium-soft feel, which helps keep your head and neck aligned in any sleep position, according to the brand.
This kitchen gadget lets you make fresh popcorn at home It has a built-in measuring cup on the lid for kernels, so you can pour them into the popper and microwave it for about three minutes. The top also has holes that melt butter onto the popcorn.
This toner is one of our favorite liquid exfoliants because it helps unclog pores and smooth fine lines, according to the brand. “I can actually notice a difference in the size of my pores after using this product a few times,” says NBC Selected commerce editor Cory Fernandez. “It also doesn’t sting or irritate my seborrheic dermatitis at all, which is always a plus.”
This Dae taming wand is a favorite among our editors, who say it keeps frizz, flyaways and baby hairs at bay for hours. I use it every time to keep flyaways down when my hair is in a bun or ponytail. The tube has Dae’s viral styling cream (which is also on sale) inside, and it never makes my hair look or feel crunchy.
According to experts in our guide to snail mucin, the buzzy ingredient hydrates and plumps skin while also targeting fine lines. This Cosrx serum, one of our favorite facial essences, is lightweight and hypoallergenic, meaning it’s safe for sensitive skin, according to the brand.

The process includes sending a saliva sample in the included prepaid package to the AncestryDNA lab, and you’ll get your results online in six to eight weeks, according to the service.
Tower 28’s tinted SPF is a favorite among NBC Selected editors, including myself. It has enough coverage to even out my skin tone and cover up my redness, so I can use the sunscreen in lieu of foundation. It has the National Eczema Association’s Seal of Acceptance, which means it’s safe for sensitive skin, plus it’s fragrance-free, alcohol-free and noncomedogenic.
My 8-year-old dog Havanese and bichon frise mix, Bella, loves these Pupgum dental chews from Spot & Tango, which are currently at their lowest price ever. Each pack comes with 28 chews that help scrape away build up on your dog’s teeth and freshen their breath. You can choose from three sizes: small (for dogs up to 15 pounds), medium (up to 40 pounds) and large (41 pounds or more).
I’m very careful about using face towels because they can harbor bacteria quickly. I started using these disposable towels to dry my face after washing it, and it’s become a staple in my daily routine. Since I go through them quickly, I jump on any opportunity to get them on sale (especially if it comes in a multipack).
