Powered by Alexa, Amazon’s Echo range is widely popular. But choosing between the Echo smart speakers is tricky. If cheap and cheerful is the name of the game for you, and you don’t want to compromise on quality, it has to be the Echo Dot.

This unmissable deal has seen the gadget plummet even lower in price, meaning it can now be yours for less than £30. “The Amazon Echo Dot is the baby in the Amazon Echo range”, our tester explained in their review, “but don’t be deceived by its diminutive, spherical and slightly squat size – this speaker Alexifies every room in your home on a budget, while still delivering decent sound and good smarts”.

Prime Day debuted in 2015 as a one-day event to celebrate Prime members. Falling on 15 July to mark the retailer’s 20th birthday, the sale has evolved into a flagship 48-hour event in the nine years since.

As well as mega savings on beauty, appliances and tech, it is first and foremost an Amazon sale, so some of the best discounts are on Amazon-own products. This means that Prime Day is a great time to buy a Kindle, an Echo, or just about any Fire TV device available. Of course, you’ll need a Prime subscription to access any of the savings. Amazon Prime costs £8.99 per year or £95 per month.

Perfectly timed to help you stock up on summer essentials at a fraction of the cost, I’ve found the best deal going on gradual fake tan this Amazon Prime Day.

Reduced by more than 50 per cent, Dove’s cult summer revived lotion needs little introduction among fake-tan devotees. For the uninitiated, the lotion nourishes and hydrates skin (hello aloe vera and glycerin), while giving you a radiant and natural-looking glow.

If you’re after an affordable fast-track to an understated glow, Dove’s budget buy is hard to beat. Whether applied on clean skin for a naturally radiant look or used to enhance an existing tan, the multipurpose formula hydrates, nourishes and bronzes.

I love the subtle scent (good for those who don’t like the biscuit-like smell of fake tan), and its moisturising formula leaves skin smooth and supple for up to 48 hours. Just one application is enough to see instant sun-kissed results, and the lotion consistency helps prevent tell-tale streaks.
