The Summer is here, and it’s not going away anytime soon. Whether it’s dealing with sweaty afternoons or struggling to sleep at night, summer comes with its own set of challenges. But this year, there’s a bunch of stuff hitting the shelves that can make it easier to stay cool and comfortable, even on the hottest days.
Not everyone can install a split AC, especially in rented flats or hostels. That’s where compact air conditioners and personal air coolers come in handy. They are compact enough to fit in small spaces and strong enough to lower the room temperature rapidly.
Some designs from companies such as Lloyd and Blue Star don't even require permanent installation and can be easily shifted around. For room-sharers, or students residing away from campus, this is a good solution for those balmy summer nights. Waking up in a sweat at 3 AM is never fun.
That’s why cooling bedding is catching on fast. These sheets and pillows are made from materials that don’t trap body heat and stay breathable through the night. Indian brands like Wakefit and The Sleep Company are offering sets designed for hot and humid weather.
These can make a real difference for people who don’t use AC all the time or just want a better night’s sleep. For crowded buses, metro rides, or power cuts, small rechargeable fans have become everyday essentials. They fit into backpacks, work quietly, and some even have a mist spray for extra cooling.
Models from Xiaomi and a few Indian brands are easy to charge with a regular phone cable and last several hours on one charge. These are especially useful for college students or those who commute regularly. It’s not just about wearing cotton.
Clothing brands are now offering outfits with built-in sun protection and sweat-control fabric. T-shirts, joggers, and even formal shirts are available in designs that stay dry and feel cool. Brands like HRX, Decathlon , and Uniqlo are getting good feedback for their summer collections.
For anyone spending time outdoors or walking between classes or work, these can help avoid that heavy, sticky feeling by noon. Drinking enough water during the day sounds easy, but many forget until the headache kicks in. Smart bottles now send alerts when it’s time to take a sip.
Some also track water intake through a connected app and show if the bottle is too warm. A few Indian brands are even making budget-friendly versions with temperature control. These are gaining popularity among teens and young adults who are into fitness or just trying to build healthier habits.
Heat, sweat, and sun exposure can cause breakouts, rashes, and dull skin. To avoid all that, lightweight skincare is trending right now. Water-based sunscreens, aloe vera gels, and oil-free moisturisers are top choices.
Brands like Minimalist, Plum, and The Derma Co. are offering summer kits that are gentle and affordable. Face mists and cooling under-eye rollers are also becoming go-to options for quick refreshes during long days.
Families are now shifting to appliances that stay cool without making the electricity bill jump. High-efficiency fans, fridges, and even coolers are seeing more demand this year. Products from Havells, Crompton, and LG are built to run longer without heating up the room.
For homes looking to stay cool without overusing the AC, these are becoming popular options. This summer, the goal isn’t just to survive the heat—it’s to stay comfortable without overcomplicating things. From smarter clothes to cooler rooms, these products are turning into everyday essentials as temperatures continue to climb.
