Save $30 on the sunrise alarm clock customers 'cannot live without' in early Amazon Prime Day deal
No matter the time of year, I'm reliant on a quality sunrise alarm clock when it comes to getting a good night's sleep and resisting the snooze button. Packed with a wide variety of sleep sounds, a sunset simulation and gentle wake up sounds, a Hatch alarm clock is my digital alarm clock of choice. Hatch is the maker of the best sunrise alarm clock we've tested and you can now save $30 on the Restore 3 sunrise alarm clock at Hatch, bringing it down to the lowest price we've seen since its release in a pre Prime Day deal. The Restore 3 replaced the well-loved Hatch Restore 2, bringing 60 plus new sleep sounds for no extra cost. If you're looking for a device that can help you fall asleep fast and wake up with ease, the Hatch Restore 3 has you covered. You can drift off to a library of sleep sounds including guided meditations and sleep stories and use it as a soothing night light. Come morning, you'll be woken up gradually by a warm light and gentle nature sounds (or house music, if that's your jam.) Hatch Restore 3 sunrise alarm clock: was $169.99 now $139.99 at HatchAlthough this is an Amazon Prime Day deal, the Restore 3 is on sale at Hatch directly, alongside Amazon. Wherever you shop, you'll find 18% off all colors of the REstore 3 (available in putty, greige, cocoa and rosy which translates to a saving of $30 dropping the price from $169.99 to $139.99. Compared with other top-performing sunrise alarm clocks, including the Philips SmartSleep ($204.41) and Lumie Bodyclock ($149), that's outstanding value. Plus the Hatch won't ruin your bedroom aesthetic thanks to its stylish design. Do note, however, you'll be tied into a subscription at Hatch costing $4.99 per month. The Hatch Restore 3 boasts 2,339 5-star reviews (out of 3,306 reviews) from verified customers. Its ability to help sleepers unwind at night and feel refreshed in the morning while looking "sleek" and "beautiful" on the nightstand. One customer, an overnight healthcare worker, praises the Hatch for helping align her circadian rhythm even when working irregular shift patterns. They say: "I wake up in a better mood compared to my previous phone alarm clock. And it makes it easier to keep my phone away from my bed and decrease scrolling in bed." Elsewhere, the Hatch Restore 3 has helped customers form a nourishing morning routine. One reviewer, who was once a "chronic snoozer", says they "woke up refreshed, alert, and able to have some ME time reading before work" after one night of using the Restore 3. The sunrise alarm clock's audio quality is another highly-praised feature. What about less agreeable features? Some customers complain about the subscription fee and the fact set-up and customization settings are dependent on a smart phone. Overall, if you're looking to leverage tech for better sleep, the Hatch Restore 3 is great addition to any nighttime and morning routine. And at $139.99 now, it's great value. For reference, smart sleep masks and sleep headbands, which work similarly on improving sleep quality can cost upwards of $200.

After using it for a couple of weeks now, I can confidently say this device has transformed our sleep routine positively and we wish we would have started using this a lot sooner instead of simply using our iPhones as alarm clocks. Our favorite features are the 'Light Rain' and 'Ocean Waves' settings, which we both love and help us quickly fall asleep. We love the look as it features a sleek, modern design that perfectly matches our bedroom decor. The quality matches the price point as it feels and looks like a premium, high-quality device and has great sound quality. It's very user-friendly and simple to use without the need for a phone, allowing us to manage our sleep routine directly from the device and reduce our screen time right before bed. Another great feature is the sunrise alarm which gradually brightens our room, mimicking a natural sunrise and allowing us to feel more refreshed and less startled." —Ali PGet it from Amazon for $169.99 (available in three colors).

Promising review: "I was looking for a dry shampoo that would be easy to use on the go for a trip I was taking. I had no issues taking this through TSA, and it was so easy to use on the go. You literally just pat the poof on your scalp and then rub the powder in. I do have black hair, so dry shampoo is usually very visible in my hair, but I didn't have any harder time than usual rubbing this powder in. It did a really good job of soaking up all the oil and giving my hair volume. I'm not a fan of the price for the amount that you get, but it is lasting longer than I thought it would. I would definitely recommend and will purchase again." —TeresaGet it from Amazon for $18.

It doesn't have a built-in bra, but it's lined. You could put on a bra with this if you'd like but there's no need. It's cropped but still long enough that it doesn't roll up weirdly at the bottom. Can dress this up or down! I'll probably end up buying every color by the end of the year, it's just that incredible." —DanijtateGet it from Amazon for $19.97+ (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 29 colors).

(BRB, gotta set it for ten minutes to empty the dishwasher and reload it again.) Promising review: "Great little analog timer. It shows graphically how much time is left, and you can choose whether or not it beeps at the end via a button on the back. The timer starts as soon as you move the pointer, and you can time up to an hour. Not a good timer if you're looking for seconds, but I use it for blocks of time, 3 or 5 minutes until I do this, or 15 minutes of that, type of thing. Very pleased with this timer, it has been exactly what my ADD brain needs." —Peter NeevesGet it from Amazon for $16.94+ (available in six colors). Finally accomplish that perfect TikTok bun with some Goody spin hair pins: One spiral pin does the work of 20 traditional pins. Yep, you read that right. Less sticks in your hair and floating around on your counter? Look how put-together you already are! Promising review: "I'm a nursing student and have to wear my hair in a bun every day. I've tried all the bun makers, watched YouTube videos, and spent way too much time on getting my hair into a bun. With these, I was able to make a pretty bun that was secure in under 30 seconds. I thought it was a fluke, so I did it again, and then again. I just ordered two more packs because I know if I lose one of these, I'd have to tear the house down looking for it. I have hair to my mid-back, and three of these worked perfectly for me. If I can get my hair in a bun in under 30 seconds, trust me... anyone can." —Tina Get a pack of three from Amazon for $5.95. If you love a clean shower but hate to clean your shower, a bottle of Wet & Forget cleaner is the answer.

It performs as promised, it has a very nice scent, no fumes, and leaves the shower clean with no scrubbing actually necessary. It is very easy to apply and rinse off.

Promising review: "I love this stuff! It was recommended to me in a Facebook group when I asked for a one-and-done face cream for someone who doesn't really wear makeup. I wanted dewy, I wanted some light refraction, I wanted sun protection, and I didn't want heavy color. This is all those things. It works really well in the Florida sun. I'm covered in freckles, and it doesn't dull or smudge them, it just brightens everything. I don't wear face makeup, other than the occasional swipe of bronzer, and this works great with that. Love it, love it, love it." —KristenBGet it from Amazon for $22+ (available in four shades and three sizes/quantities).

Highly recommend. You just need to make sure it's clicked together correctly or it'll come undone! Don't worry if it happens to you, though, it's totally fixable.

Get rid of brassiness with internet-famous Fanola purple shampoo, which uses a violet pigment to banish unwanted yellow streaks in your tresses and allows you to go as long as possible between expensive salon visits. (Which also take up precious time, so this really is a lifesaver and a piggy bank saver!) Use this once a week (for about three minutes) to prevent your hair from turning slightly lavender. Promising review: "Finally! A purple shampoo that actually does something to my brassy hair! I have silver-white hair that is exceptionally hard to maintain due to how easily my hair picks up brassy tones and how stubborn they are to remove. I've tried a ton of other brands, and none of their toning shampoos will do a damn thing to my hair even if I leave them on for an hour. It's nice to not have to schedule a chunk of time to mix a batch of custom toner, painstakingly apply it, and then sit around for an hour while it does its thing. This shampoo actually works really well and can cut a lot of time out of my bi-weekly color maintenance." —AudreyGet it from Amazon for $12.25.

This bb will help soothe your sorrows of those early morning wake-up calls. A Hatch Restore 3 that serves as a sound machine, a wind-down light, AND a sunrise alarm clock all in one. Using the app, you can customize your sleep routine by falling asleep to ocean waves and waking up to meditative flutes with a natural bright light. No matter what you choose, it's so much better than your phone's default alarm. Or if you don't want to splurge on the Hatch, a sunrise alarm clock if your regular alarm does the opposite of motivating you to tackle your responsibilities for the day.

A Five-Minute Journal so you can take a little time for yourself before you get going with the rest of your routine. With insightful prompts like "I am grateful for..." and "What did I learn today..." you can use this to start and end each day with positive thoughts, gratitude, and a good foundation for the next day ahead.

A SwitchBot Smart Switch Button Pusher so you can turn on the lights or get the coffee machine brewing from the comfort of your warm bed, or while you get ready for the day. You'll feel like you're living in the Year 3000 with this smart lil' gadget that attaches to any on/off button device. A waterproof eyeliner stamp where all you need to do is stamp the wing on the outer corner of your eye and flip it over to the fine tip to finish off the job!
