Seasonal allergies (or respiratory issues in general) got you down? It might be time to consider a Himalayan salt lamp. When heated, these organic wonders are said to emit negative ions that help purify the air in your home by clearing out smoke, dander, pollen, and other pollutants. And while there haven’t been many studies to firmly conclude these claims as fact, at the very least they add a soft, warm glow to just about any room you put one in, which helps enhance your home’s ambience and your mood.

That being said, scoring one of these multi-functional light fixtures loved by bohemian aesthetes can often cost you a pretty penny. Luckily, Amazon is currently offering over half off the suggested listing price of on one of their best-selling Himalayan pink salt lamps.

BUY IT: Himalayan Glow 1002 Himalayan Pink Salt Lamp, $39.95 $16.97

It’s a good thing to keep in mind that being hand-carved from natural salt crystals from the Himalayan Mountains means the lamp you see in the retail listing may not look exactly like the one you get. Regardless, this design-savvy lamp will still look (and make you feel) great in whatever room it graces. This allergy-combating table lamp would sit perfectly on a coffee table, desk, or nightstand—so you can breath easy anywhere in your home.

Even better, this top-rated model just got a majorly helpful upgrade: a heat-resistant dimmer switch. Many older reviews noted they had issues with the lamp overheated or turning on by itself, but this change seems to have made this concern null and void. Along with a six-foot power cord (so you can move this petite air purifier around your room), you can now safely adjust its ambient light with confidence and ease.

Not a fan of pink lighting? Fret not. You can easily switch out the light bulbs in these clever lamps to score whatever radiant hue you choose.

Presently marked down to $17, this unique lamp is the perfect gift for hard-to-shop-for loved ones—and it won’t set you back more than $20. Just act fast: this awesome Amazon deal only lasts through today.
