19% Off Bio-Oil Skincare Oil, $14.54
When you can't resist the temptation to pick blemishes, then you know it can lead to scarring. Thankfully, Bio-Oil has been a great remedy for clearing scarring for our Commerce Editor. She swears by it, along with thousands of other customers. A little bit of oil goes a long way, however, if you stick to using it twice a day, you may notice you'll go through more than one bottle in a year. Stay stocked with an extra bottle, especially if you're also using it for stretch marks on your tummy or legs.

If you haven't invested in a hardside carry-on yet, consider snagging one on Prime Day. They're easy to wipe clean (hey, airports can be gross), plus, you'll like the idea of keeping electronics in a hardcase carry-on in case you're flying out somewhere rainy. (Seattle, anyone?)
