Memorial Day weekend means major savings on mattresses, outdoor furniture, and even coveted kitchen appliances. But we’re also finding major markdowns on Oprah’s Favorite Things, which are known for making excellent gifts (there’s still time to grab that graduation gift or get a head start on Father’s Day shopping).
Right now, you can save up to 50% on Oprah-approved finds across beauty, home, fashion, and tech—and to no surprise, many overlap with some of the Good Housekeeping Institute’s top-tested brands. Cozy Dearfoams slippers, Laura Geller makeup favorites, and travel essentials from Bagsmart are all on sale. Even Samsung’s Frame TV is up to 40% off.
Best Deal
Save big—around 50% off—on these fluffy Dearfoams house shoes, and you can give them as a gift or save them for when the weather gets chilly again. The brand is frequently spotted on Oprah's Favorite Things List, and Oprah says these house shoes "spring back energy with every step."
Good Housekeeping's footwear experts like that they're machine-washable. "Slippers tend to get stinky and sweaty, especially if you choose to wear them without socks. So it's great that you can just throw this pair in the wash," says Home & Apparel Reviews Analyst Amanda Constantine.
This toiletry bag folds open to fit a lot of lotions and skincare, and keeps them organized while on the go. According to Oprah, the two separate main compartments can help keep bottles upright. Our editors have raved about the brand’s other accessories, like its hanging toiletry bag and travel backpack.
Brooklinen’s 25% off sitewide Memorial Day sale is a great time to stock up on GH-tested sheets, bedding, and bath. But you can also treat yourself to this plush robe that’s available in plenty of fun colors and prints. “This super-plush Turkish cotton one (with a fresh vertical stripe) is the perfect way to wrap someone you love in comfort,” Oprah says.
This set of three face-and-eye palettes is for anyone who needs makeup touchups on the go. It's got rosy pinks, warm mauves, and bronzy neutrals. Oprah said that these shades should flatter every skin tone. While the trio is full price on Amazon, it’s currently over 80% off on the brand’s DTC site during its Memorial Day Sale—plus, you can get an extra 15% off with code MD15 at checkout. Yes, you really do get three palettes for less than $20.
This 16-ounce stainless steel bottle is built for little hands, complete with fun animal-head lids that are easy to twist on and off. It also has a built-in straw. Right now, this sheep one (and several holiday-themed ones) are on sale. Oprah said that drinks stay cold or warm for several hours.
“This comfy slide is made from soft leather and even softer shearling that, because of subtle flaws, would otherwise end up in landfills,” Oprah says. With a shearling band and a foam midsole, Oprah raves that “they’re stylish, sustainable, and, thanks to the sculpted arch that offers support, beyond comfortable.”
Our editors and analysts have tested Samsung’s viral Frame TV for years, and it continues to impress with each upgrade. Oprah particularly loves the Pro version for its “even slimmer design, hanging nearly flush on the wall.” She also likes that its built-in AI programs can translate dialogue in real time.
GH Institute’s Senior Reviews Writer & Analyst Olivia Lipski highlights that the Frame TV Pro has an impressive Neo QLED screen with a matte display that minimizes glare, noting that this is brighter than previous iterations of the Frame TV.
Treat your furry friend to some adorable plushies that are made from 100% cotton with a coconut fiber fill. Designed for tug and fetch, these may look delicate but are pretty durable, according to Oprah. “The tough cotton shell is washable—so even the slobberiest play sessions clean up easily,” she says.
Whether you're trying to cut down on your kid’s screen time or get them engaged in a fascinating book, this interactive fairy tale might just be the bedtime read to grab their attention. “This AR (augmented reality) illustrated book sings—literally. Hover a phone or tablet over some pages and young readers can see hidden worlds pop and move in real time,” Oprah says.
“As always, the new Apple Watch helps folks hit their fitness goals and track sleep—but I was wowed by the new feature that alerts people to signs of chronic high blood pressure,” Oprah says. Lipski also put it to the test and says it’s worth the upgrade, noting its “thinner design, brighter display, and advanced health features like ECG and blood oxygen readings, hypertension notifications, and more.”
The Series 11 also features a 24-hour battery life and is more durable than previous generations, according to Apple. At 25% off and just under $300, it’s a good time to take the plunge if you’re finally investing in a smartwatch.
While these lounge pants aren’t cheap even on sale, if you’re looking to invest in luxury loungewear, these are an Oprah-approved cozy essential. “I love a cargo pant—and I love a cashmere jogger—so picking a cashmere cargo pant was a no-brainer,” she says. It’s over half off, so there’s no better time to treat yourself.
“This collection of 25 poems by Billy Collins is a sweet gift for dog lovers,” says Oprah. This adorable book can be a cute and quirky coffee table book in your home, or such a sweet present for a loved one who’s a dog parent. And, at under $20, you might as well get a few to gift all your puppy-loving friends and family. As for Oprah’s favorite poem from the collection? She enjoys “A Dog on His Master.”
“I like to accessorize with my eyewear,” says Oprah, who’s a longtime fan of this brand. She prefers “not-too-oversize styles” like the Buzzworthy and Fanfis Readers, but they aren’t on sale right now. A similar rounded style, the Stardust, is currently 35% off, and has a blue light filter and is scratch-resistant—two features Oprah loves about this brand.
Peeper’s Center Stage sunglasses are also on sale right now at 20% off, just in time for those sunny days by the water.
This vest is designed to make your workouts slightly more challenging, “adding resistance to every step and building strength and endurance without changing your routine,” says Oprah. Wear it during your morning stroll around the block, add resistance to your daily yoga practice, or even while doing household chores. It comes in 5 to 30 pounds in a range of fun colors.
It’s officially grilling season, and this summer the star dish on our cookout menus is smash burgers. Sur La Table’s Smash Burger Kit has everything you need to make the trendy BBQ meal, “a hefty cast-iron press for a sizzling, crispy crust, a shaker for seasoning magic, and a spatula that flips like a dream,” says Oprah.
Softies is another Oprah-loved brand that’s been featured on her list multiple times, and the brand is having a sitewide 20% off sale for Memorial Day. Her latest obsession is this Waffle Marshmallow V-Neck Lounge Set that’s available in six stylish colors. “When I saw this extra-plush waffle fabric set at the office, I put it in my bag to bring directly home,” she says.
The sitewide sale is also a great opportunity to snag another Oprah favorite, the DreamPlush Double Zip Jacket, perfect for layering during breezy days and restaurants with a little too much A/C.
“With 13 one-touch programs (including 6 just for soft serve!), this clever machine turns almost anything into creamy, dreamy treats—fruit sorbets, ice cream, protein-packed desserts, you name it,” says Oprah.
GH Institute’s Kitchen Appliances and Innovation Lab Director Nicole Papantoniou tested it in her own home and appreciated that it allows you to make healthier dessert options and customize them according to your dietary restrictions. But, she does note that if you already have the original Creami, you don’t need to invest in another ice cream machine.

“I consider myself a bathing connoisseur—I tell you, I take it seriously,” says Oprah, and if you’re as particular about your self-care rituals, this Oak Essentials Relaxation Bath Set is 20% off right now. It comes with magnesium-infused salts and a nourishing foaming oil that will transform your bath into a luxe spa experience.
A sleek coffee table book by the legendary photographer Annie Leibovitz will impress guests. This Women: 2025 Edition Set would also make for a thoughtful gift for the one who loves photography. “This set includes a newly reissued edition spanning legendary photographer Annie Leibovitz’s work through 1999 and a new volume of portraits from 1993 to the present with essays from Gloria Steinem and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie,” says Oprah, who’s also featured in the book.
