Promising reviews: “Bought this for my mom who is always having hot flashes (thank you, menopause!). She absolutely loves it! It’s light weight and super quiet— a bonus for my mom who already has hearing loss and hearing aids.” — swray

“Unlike other neck fans, this one does not grab my hair and the vents go all the way to the back cooling my neck. It works so well that three of my friends are buying it. A microphone does not pick up a sound when it is the low speed. I use it at church when singing, at work, and when I go out. I am also pleased that the battery is easy to charge. So far, the battery is working well.” — Mj

There's nothing better than a spritz of cooling mist when you're burning up from the inside out. I can't go anywhere or be far from my Avène face mist. I have long kept one in my carry-on bag to refresh my skin while flying, but now I've grown fully dependent on it to help regulate my temperature as the weather trends infernal. I spray it on my face and wrists for near-immediate relief, and get to enjoy the secondary skin care benefits as well. It's an easy and soothing way to keep myself from overheating. I keep one in my work bag and another close at hand at home. I recommend storing it in the fridge so it's extra chilly.

According to my perpetually overheated mother, Soma's Cool Nights pajama collection cannot be beaten. They've been a lifesaver throughout her menopause journey and beyond. The cotton modal fabric feels a lot more expensive than it actually is, while the silhouette of this pajama T-shirt dress is comfy and easy to throw on and still look fabulous. It's made with a lightweight rayon fabric that stays cool and won't slime your body or get sticky. You can get it in sizes XS-XXL in a variety of colors and patterns.

I've been obsessed with my ice roller since long before I was pregnant. It's the perfect antidote to when you feel like you're burning up from the inside out. You just leave it in the freezer and then pull it out when you need to quickly cool down by rubbing it all over your face. It offers instant relief. This wildly popular and highly rated ice roller at Amazon is a great option for anyone who needs help managing their hot flashes. It's available in a range of colors. My colleague, Greta Geiselman, agrees and always keeps one handy. As a bonus, it can help to soothe irritated skin and ease facial puffiness. Just make sure you clean it regularly!

Promising review: "This was a gift for me, and I was skeptical. I felt it looked clunky, and wasn't convinced it would be useful. I was very wrong! Despite its clunky appearance, I am so happy that I was given this gift! If I have a headache or am feeling stressed, a few minutes of rolling the softer roller head over my temples, forehead, and face leaves me feeling much better, more relaxed, and refreshed. I use it a couple of times a week. It also seems to reduce redness and puffiness for a few minutes, but I haven't seen any long-term changes. I think it will be very useful once the weather warms up, I can imagine it will be very refreshing once it gets really hot. It would also be great for anyone suffering from hot flashes!" — Amazon customer

My mother lives in these breathable, comfortable shoes all summer long. She can't stand the feeling of hot feet, and these airy, lightweight Toms shoes are the perfect summer kicks. Available in sizes 5-12 in a range of colors, they feature a nice, cushy insole and are comfy enough to wear all day long.

I pop my refrigerated rose quartz eye mask on as soon as I step inside my house on a near daily basis. It's a deliciously luxurious way to bring down my body temperature and take a moment to regulate my entire overheated system when I've been out and about. Not only does the mask feel wonderful and provide a quick cooling effect, but it also has added skin care benefits like reducing puffiness and irritation. It's one of my favorite ways to keep cool. And if you wonder whether it's cold enough to offer relief, both my sister and mom (who run hot and get hot flashes, respectively) found it to be almost too cold after trying it out.

Available in eight colors, this hand-held fan is highly rated and super popular over at Amazon. It's surprisingly versatile and features a wide-angle top vent, three wind speed settings, USB recharging and a near-silent motor. It can also be worn in different ways: around the neck with the included adjustable lanyard, propped up on a surface or clipped to the waist of your pants so it can blow air under your clothing. On top of that, a digital interface on the front of the fan shows you the battery life, which is about three to seven hours per charge depending on the speed setting.

Promising review: “I originally bought this to use at a music festival, but then I it because I entered the hot flash phase of my life. This is great because the little display tells you how much battery there is left, but also when I get very hot and my spouse is not hot. I don’t have to alter the temperature of the whole room by changing the AC or turning the fan on." — M. Simmons

"I love these fans! I tend to run hotter than most, so it's hard for me to stay comfortable, especially outdoors. These fans make it so much easier for me. They cool whatever part of me I point them at, and can just dangle around my neck without having to hold them. They are durable, easily rechargeable, and very lightweight. There are 3 settings to choose from, but I usually only need the low or medium speed, not the high range (which also makes the fan a bit loud). When I took my family to Disney World over Spring Break, these were lifesavers. Highly recommended!" — Jared

My mother runs very hot at night and raves about Gap's modal-fabric pajamas, particularly these pants. They're shockingly soft, lightweight and breathable, so you don't have to worry about overheating in the middle of the night as a result of being overdressed. They're also just as cute as can be. These pajama pants are available in a range of colors and patterns in regular, tall and petite silhouettes in sizes S-XXL.
