You don’t need to convince me to buy an affordable product Sarah Jessica Parker is using, because odds are it’s already in my cart. Between the $30 blush her makeup artist swears by and the under-$100 sandals she—and the rest of the Sex and the City cast—can’t get enough of, I’ve tapped the star for plenty of recommendations on the beauty and fashion front. But don’t be fooled—she’s also savvy when it comes to gadgets. Recently, SJP was spotted cooling herself off on the And Just Like That set with a sleek little handheld fan, and I found an identical pick from Amazon for only $15 with a Prime account. Behold, the Jisulife handheld mini fan, the perfect practical accessory to slip in your bag (or even your back pocket) on especially sweltering days.

Leave it to Carrie Bradshaw to make handheld fans the hottest—well, coolest—new trend. No, really, the New York Times declared them so just days after these pap pics were taken. Now, whether you plan on spending the rest of the summer on a beach, or are just hoping to prevent your makeup from melting on the way to work, it’s not a bad idea to jump on it.

This mini fan, for one, has all the functionality you need for an array of scenarios. Only carrying a small purse? Don’t worry, it’s only 5 inches tall, 3 inches wide and under an inch thick (so it’s more compact than an iPhone). Need to stay cool at your desk? Great, it has a pop-out stand so you don’t have to prop it against anything. Hate changing batteries? Easy, this one has a rechargeable USB that charges to full battery in just three hours, per the brand. “I love this little fan. It’s portable enough to fit into a backpack or small bag and it’s not noticeable. It moves air pretty [well]. I used it in a hotel recently over night, and running [it] on low, it was able to run pretty much the whole night,” says one Amazon customer.

It’s also got a whopping five blades and three speeds to ensure prime airflow. According to the manufacturer, you can use the low speed for up to 14 hours straight before the battery runs out, medium speed for up to nine hours and high speed for four hours. You can also grab it in multiple colors including blue, beige or pink.

This fan may be small, but it sure is mighty—not to mention, cute. And if it’s good enough to keep SJP’s makeup looking flawless in steamy summer weather with the cameras rolling, it’s gotta be good enough for us mere mortals. What I tell ya? She never lets me down.
