Several flash sales are happening today: Alex Mill’s covetable jumpsuits are just $75 until midnight — that’s 65 percent off — and SkinStore is offering a hefty discount on thousands of beauty products until early tomorrow morning. It’s also a great time to shop for décor, as Urban Outfitters is offering 30 percent off its home section and Ruggable is discounting its entire site by 20 percent for the next week.

Here’s a portable play set from Melissa & Doug to keep your kids entertained on summer road trips.

This is the same home-security system that graphic artist Geoff McFetridge uses in his home: “I really rely on this system. You don’t have to wire it — you can install it yourself, and it takes a half-hour to install the entire system. And it beeps if anything gets triggered.”

For crafty types, the Cricut EasyPress 2 is $129 at several retailers today, including the brand’s website and Michael’s. The ceramic-coated heat plate is incredibly easy to use — just enter the recommended time and temperature settings (it goes up to 400 degrees Fahrenheit), apply heat, and it will beep once done.

Hundreds of furnishings and home-décor items are 30 percent off at Urban Outfitters. This mushroom-shaped table lamp is handmade, so each lamp is one of a kind.

Lots of skin-care sets are on sale for Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale. This trio from rarely on sale True Botanicals includes a serum, moisturizer, and the facial oil that Eva Mendes told us her skin “craves.”

Everything at Ruggable is 20 percent off with the code BDAY23 through July 25. The brand makes our favorite washable rugs, which come in a plethora of fun patterns that look charming, not cheap, Strategist senior write Liza Corsillo assures us.

Even if you’re dealing with Barbie-collab fatigue, you can’t deny that this ombré number is delightful.

SkinStore is having a mid-week flash sale, and hundreds of Strategist favorites are 25 percent off until 9 a.m. ET tomorrow with the code TREAT25. There are also some nice self-care items in the mix, such as this silk eye mask that designer Karen Walker told us she can’t live without.

Our beauty columnist Rio Viera-Newton introduced us to this organic, olive-oil-based cleanser, which is now one of our favorite Japanese skin-care staples. She explains that it effortlessly removes makeup and is also “one of the best products for getting rid of stubborn blackheads.”

The NuFace has been lauded by our beauty columnistcelebrities, and dermatologists alike, one of whom says it “tightens and stops that sagging gravity effect. It just keeps everything nice and lifted.”

We love Alex Mill’s jumpsuits, and all of them are just $75 until midnight tonight. (In order to access the sale, you will have to enter your email address.) Four colors are on sale: hickory (which Strategist editor Maxine Builder owns and is pictured here), army green, white, and cornflower blue.

For a more summer-appropriate option, I’m eyeing the shorts jumpsuit, which comes in black, navy blue, army green, and oat milk.
