Shop TODAY hosted nearly 700 University of Miami students during our latest in-person Stages event, The Leap, where they participated in in-person panels, enjoyed interactive brand activations and left with a gift bag worth more than $300. For anyone who couldn't join, Shop TODAY executive editor Adrianna Brach stopped by the studio to showcase standout products from our summit sponsors, plus a few exclusive deals you won’t want to miss.

John Frieda is a longstanding Shop TODAY favorite for its innovative formulas and affordable price point — even Brach says she's been using the products since high school! And now, this spray has become her must-have for achieving salon-quality blowouts at home. "[It's] heat-activated; it also has heat protection up to 450 degrees [Fahrenheit] and it keeps your hair really smooth and shiny for up to three shampoos," she reports. Plus, the brand also says it's formulated with keratin to combat frizz.

This has been one of Brach's favorite sunscreens for a long time. "I've been using it for seven years now," she says. "I always go back to it." The 3-in-1 product works as a moisturizer, SPF and makeup primer to make prepping your skin in the morning much easier. Not only that, but the brand says it's infused with hyaluronic acid, which helps give your skin that all-day hydration! If you're in search of a lightweight, non-greasy formula ahead of summer, score this pick for just $15.

Glow Recipe has gone viral all over social media, and Brach had the pleasure of chatting with co-founder and co-CEO Sarah Lee at the campus event. Wondering what's new from the buzzy K-beauty brand? These super-thin toner pads are like little sheet masks for your face and neck that you can either sweep over your skin or leave on for up to 15 minutes. This LHA and AHA launch is perfect for gentle exfoliation, smoothing out texture and leaving you with a radiant glow.

The brand says these toner pads will help soothe irritation and strengthen the skin barrier, and Brach loves the little pair of tweezers they come with so that she doesn't get the tub all dirty. The formula includes two types of vegan PDRN, which are said to boost collagen production and reduce redness.

The brand says to reach for these toner pads for depuffing the under-eye area, targeting dark circles and brightening the skin. The ingredients driving these benefits include niacinamide, caffeine and glutathione, in addition to five types of vitamin C. Brach notes that each container comes with 60 pads for just $30!

Former Wall Street trader and bestselling author Vivian Tu, also known as "Your Rich BFF," joined Brach for a conversation at Stages to offer students practical advice about how to level up their finances and ready themselves for the real world — and now you can order her second book about navigating some of the biggest decisions in adulthood. From homeownership, marriage and family planning to building a strong foundation to create generational wealth, this guide would make a great gift for upcoming college graduates (or anyone looking to brush up on their financial literacy).

Shop TODAY editors and our audience love Shapermint's breathable shapewear, and now's the time to stock up because the brand is offering 20% off your entire order (on top of sale prices) with code TODAY. This full-coverage contour bra is one of the brand's bestsellers. With a flattering sweetheart neckline, just the right amount of padding and none of those uncomfortable metal wires that pinch or poke, this pick can help make your sides look smoother while still keeping you comfortable all day long.

These bestselling shorts, designed to make the tummy and waist look more shaped, have a silicone strip at the top to prevent rolling or riding up. Brach says they're even soft and stretchy enough to wear every day!

In search of a new pair of sunnies that won't break the bank? After having so much fun trying out all the different styles at Stages, Brach recommends Zenni Optical for their affordable options. "You can totally customize your glasses! You pick out the frame, you pick out the lens, prescription, not prescription, and you can even pick out the tint," she raves. We've got eyes on this oversized round pair that starts at just $36.

Brach also loves this oval style for summer, like these brown frames that boast UV protection to shade your eyes from the sun. They're also available in black and clear colorways.

Parke is known for these viral mockneck sweatshirts that are meant to be worn comfy and oversized. Brach says this is a style "anyone can wear" and if you want to get your hands on one — or anything from the new "Core Shop," now's your chance! The brand says its drops usually sell out almost immediately, but this collection has more inventory of the popular styles.

Brach noted that the collection is chock full of elevated basics that are made to mix and match, including these boxer sweatpants. They are available in four core neutral colors as well as six additional (and brighter) seasonal hues, and feature a cozy fleece fabric and the brand's signature Parke tag on the waistband.
