Lily Rose is NBCU Checkout's senior commerce editor. Her August favorites include items for your home and a must-have red light therapy tool. Shop her favorites below.
"I'm a huge fan of Rachael Finley Wright, and after recently re-visiting her memoir Nobody Ever Told Me Anything, I remembered why it's one of my all-time favorites," Lily says.
"Reading this book feels like your super-cool big sister is letting you in on all her deepest thoughts and secrets. Even if you don't know 'Steak,' you'll find yourself completely captivated by her, her stories, and root for her success and survival every step of the way."
"This candle smells mouthwateringly like fresh lychee," the senior editor explains.
"It offers incredible throw as it burns -- its fragrance fills my entire living room in just 20 minutes. If you're looking for a great fruity-floral candle, this scent is nice and light and not too sweet."
"Many skincare experts have told me that everything you do to your face, you should be doing to your neck. So I've extended that philosophy to my red light therapy," she says.
"This Olura mask is super easy to strap on and use. It can easily fit under pajamas or a big T-shirt. I've noticed the difference it makes in the lines I've developed from tech neck, and it's even helping to fade unwanted freckles!"
Simone Thomas is NBCU Checkout's social commerce editor. Her August favorites include luxe skincare picks that will help transform your skin. Shop her favorites below.
"This is a great Vitamin C option if you have sensitive skin," Simone says.
"Some Vitamin C serums can be a little irritating if your skin is extremely reactive, but this is really pleasant and a nice antioxidant to add to your morning skincare routine."
"If you like gel cleansers, this is a good product to add into your skincare rotation," says our social editor.
"It's lightweight and hydrating, doesn't strip the skin, and still leaves your face feeling clean and refreshed."
"I love how smooth and glowy my skin looked when I woke up the next morning after using this during my nighttime skincare routine," she shares.
"Retinol has a reputation of leaving the skin irritated, but this oil is extremely gentle and will make you look so radiant."
Alexa Vazquez is NBCU Checkout's staff commerce writer. Her August favorites include affordable makeup and fragrance picks.

“I finally caved and tried the viral Sacheu lip liner after seeing it all over TikTok for months. It lives up to the hype — the stain makes for the perfect natural lip liner that lasts longer than a pencil and fades away without getting patchy," Alexa says.
"Plus, it’s so satisfying to peel off.”
“I’m a tough judge when it comes to liquid liners, but this one from Moira Cosmetics gets five stars from me," she shares.
"It’s ultra-black and applies as if it were brand new, unlike other felt tip liners that begin to dry out shortly after the first use.”
“This liquid blends into the skin seamlessly without lifting your base makeup," our staff writer says.
"Not to mention a little goes a long way so it’ll last forever. It’s similar to Rare Beauty’s viral version but it’s a fraction of the cost!”
“This fragrance is similar to D&G Light Blue but with slightly different notes. It leans more citrusy with a dose of white flowers," Alexa explains.
"It still has that fresh, fruity feel making it the perfect summertime scent."
