The Best Ways to Make Surviving Allergy Season a (Pollen-Free) Breeze
Flowers are blooming, the sun is shining, and noses are running. It’s officially allergy season and besides taking OTC allergy medication or nasal sprays, there’s only so much you can do to survive. But we’ve rounded up a list of a few things that you can outfit yourself with so that you can kiss those days of itchy eyes and sneezing goodbye.
LEVOIT Air Purifier
When it’s time to turn your heat on, it will most likely kick up all kinds of dust and dander from the months it spent dormant, which is bad news for allergy sufferers. This thing will give your home a new life by filtering smoke, odors, mold spores, pollen, and dust.
Best Feature: Equipped with a HEPA filter, it removes all the bad stuff you don’t want lingering around you or your family. The 360-degree filter takes in air from all sides and has three fan speeds that can be cycled through.

The Breeze Comforter
A hypoallergenic comforter is a good idea to keep you happy and sneeze-free overnight. Fabric can soak up a ton of gunk from the air, but something that is hypoallergenic tends to be resistant to microbes and allergens.
