Hello, I buy so many unnecessary gadgets online and I haven't always been this way.
Geez, but over the past few months, like I just can't stop. And to be honest, it's not an addiction that I actually think is completely pointless
and damaging.
Because I've gotten a lot of products out of this obsession that have actually kind of
improved my life, dare I say.
Today, I'm going to be talking about some of the unnecessary things I've bought recently,
and I'm going to be talking about whether or not I think they are worth the money.
These are things that are not necessary, but are extremely helpful.
That's like my shopping kryptonite, things that are not necessary, but extremely helpful. That's like my shopping kryptonite, things that are not necessary, but
extremely helpful. If something is not necessary but extremely helpful,
unfortunately, I have to have it. I'm not proud of it necessarily, but I'm
going to share some of my discoveries with you. Not all of these were hits.
Okay, some of these were terrible. And we're going to talk about that too.
But listen, some of these things are great, so I'm going to put you on.
And for the things that are bad, now you know not to waste your time.
Okay, so the first thing I bought recently is ridiculous.
And it's a little viral, okay. Okay. It's basically these little scrunchy like arm bands that you put around your wrists.
And their purpose is that when you wash your face, the water soaks into these little scrunchies
instead of rolling down your arms. Because don't we all hate it when we're going to wash our face and we just get water everywhere down
our sleeves, it drips into our elbows and it just feels terrible and messy and awful, but
also it feels unavoidable because no matter how hard you try, water just drips down your
arm in the most uncomfortable and icky way possible.
Well, that's where these little scrunchies come
in. The first week or so that I had these in my bathroom, I actually forgot to use them.
So I would wash my face and then I'd look down and see them and be like, ugh! I forgot.
And there were multiple times when I was like, okay, I forgot, but like, should I just put them on
and then wash my face again, just to like experience
what they're capable of?
But eventually, they became a part of my routine.
And now I'm obsessed.
Could you use just a normal hair scrunchie
and have the same impact?
Maybe. I'm not sure it would work as well, just a normal hair scrunchie and have the same impact.
Maybe, I'm not sure it would work as well, but I think it would work.
There's something about the tightness of these
wrist scrunchies that are specifically made for this
that just soaks up all the water.
Do I feel a little bit extra when I put them on my wrists
and go to wash my face?
Sure.
But they're extremely effective.
They weirdly make me happy,
and I don't regret purchasing them.
So in conclusion,
the little arm scrunchies for washing your face are worth it. And I stand
by that. Next thing I bought was exfoliating gloves for the shower. These are like gloves for
your hands that you basically squeeze soap into and then you wash your body and The gloves are kind of rough. So thanks fully at your body. I've never been one to exfoliate
You know, I feel like everybody's always talking about how good it is for your skin to exfoliate your skin
It makes your skin softer and it gets rid of the dead skin cells and this and that and it
makes your skin look more vibrant in all of this.
Sure. I have never had the energy to exfoliate in the shower, and to be completely honest,
I've always felt like the classic shower lufa didn't work properly.
You know, it just didn't scrub hard enough.
So, I was never really an exfoliator in the shower. But these gloves kind of changed that for me. Now I
squeeze some exfoliating body wash into my exfoliating gloves and I wash my
whole body and I scrub and I feel fucking magical when I get out of the shower.
Wow, we do I feel magical.
Okay.
I feel clean in a way that I've never felt clean before.
Like I swear to God, I get out of the shower, I look in the mirror and there's just a little
thing.
There's like a twinkle on me because I just feel cleaner than I even knew possible.
I feel polished, dare I say,
I feel polished, I feel brand new.
Brand spankin' new, I feel amazing.
So these exfoliating gloves are absolutely worth it.
And I love how easy it is because I can just put them on
in two seconds and then wash my body
as I normally would with both hands. Just
with an added exfoliating benefit because the gloves are on. It's amazing. It doesn't
really change my routine much, but yet I have such a big difference. You know what I mean?
Because with a lufa or with like an exfoliating towel. There was something about it that wasn't user friendly.
Okay.
The gloves are user friendly because you still have control of your fingers
because they're gloves.
And it just works.
Another hack for exfoliating in the shower is that when I'm done exfoliating,
I put body oil on in the shower.
Now, I'm not sure if you're supposed to do this,
but I don't like putting lotion on when I get out of the shower because it's annoying to me for
some reason. So instead, after I exfoliate in the shower, I put body oil all over my body
in the shower and it sticks to my skin because oil and water, you know, they're not friends.
So, like, the water from the shower doesn't wash the oil away. Like, the oil sticks on your skin
because it rejects water. You should know that. Okay, you went to school. Don't make me explain it.
You know that. And then when I get out of the shower, I lightly pat myself dry and I'm already hydrated and
moisturized because I put that body oil on in the shower.
Now listen, the body oil is not included in this weird things that I've bought recently,
unusual things I've bought recently, unnecessary but helpful things I've bought recently, not
included.
But I had to mention it because it's a part of my new routine with my exfoliating shower gloves.
So, whoop there it is.
Speaking of the shower, another thing I bought was a toothbrush holder specifically for
my shower.
I am the biggest supporter of brushing your teeth in the shower.
I think it's the best time to do it.
There's already water falling from the sky.
You don't even have to turn on the sink.
Okay, you brush your teeth, bend over,
you spit on the ground so you don't get toothpaste
all over yourself because I've done that before
and it burns.
And it's great, you get out of the shower
and you're all clean.
Body and mouth. There's no better feeling than getting out of the shower and you're all clean body and mouth
There's no better feeling than getting out of the shower with a clean mouth and a clean body. It's just magical
So for years I had just let my toothbrush sit in my shower
Which is disgusting to be honest like it's actually disgusting. I'm not a germaphob
Like I don't get grossed out by things easily. So it is gross that I was letting my toothbrush just sit and rot on the little bench in my
shower, kind of gross.
To me, it didn't bother me because for some reason I don't get grossed out by these things.
But my logical mind knew that something needed to change.
I finally had the idea to order a toothbrush holder that works for in the shower.
Now, you can't just have any toothbrush holder on the shower,
because if you have one that's almost like a cup, right,
there's a chance that it'll fill with water,
and then get moldy and gross, and there's even more of a bacteria issue.
But if you get a wire toothbrush holder that can't hold any water, because it's just open, right?
It has holes. You're golden. Your toothbrush is not laying on the ground of your shower,
or laying on your little bench in your shower. It's elevated in the air, but also, you know,
you don't have to clean your toothbrush holder every week
to prevent it from growing mold
because there's a bunch of water
and moisture is getting stuck in this sort of enclosed cup
that holds your toothbrush.
So, you see what I'm saying here?
It's like a little stainless steel wire toothbrush holder,
and it's magical.
And it honestly looks good in my shower too.
It looks classic.
I'm just proud of it, to be honest.
Another thing for the shower, it's like, I don't know what's going on with me, but I've
been really trying to streamline my shower experience.
I think it's because I know myself and when I'm going through a rough time, the last thing
I want to do is shower
and I tend to let myself go a little bit, you know, I'm not taking my time in the shower and
taking all the steps that I need to take to make myself feel good. So I've tried to make the shower
experience as quick, efficient, and magical as possible by the addition of these new products apparently.
The next thing I've bought was the hair removing stone.
This is basically a stone that you rub on your skin.
It's flat.
It's like a flat stone and you rub it on your skin and it's supposed to remove hair and
exfoliate your skin.
So I got this online like a month ago and I'll tell you I'm late because
people have been talking about this hair removing stone for a year now like this is not a new thing
but I was late and I had to try it. So I get it in the mail one night and I take it out of the
packaging and I see on the packaging that it says
doesn't require water. Like basically you can remove your hair using the stone without water.
I was like hmm so I just started rubbing it on my arm to see if it would remove the hair on my arm.
It did. Magically my arms were bald for the first time ever. I've never shaved my arms, but I've always kind of wanted to have shaved arms, but it was
just too much work.
I don't know why I wanted to shave my arms, too.
Like there's no reason.
Like the hair on my arms doesn't necessarily bother me, but I kind of was intrigued by
the idea of just having like smooth skin all over.
So I tried it.
And at first I was amazed. I was like holy shit. My arms
are so smooth. They feel amazing. My skin feels soft. This is a dream come true. How is
this not a bigger deal? How is everyone not using this? I proceed to remove the hair
on my whole body. I'm not kidding. I use this stone on every corner of my body, okay?
Everywhere, everywhere.
And then my skin starts to burn.
And I'm like, okay, so here we go.
This is where, this is where it is.
This is where the truth comes out.
This stone is a little bit too exfoliating.
It actually unfortunately took a layer off of my skin.
So I did end up kind of getting a rash all over my body from this.
Now listen, it wasn't that bad.
It wasn't that big of a deal.
It might have been user error.
It did remove the hair, but my skin was so sensitive for like a week after
and it had this sort of sensitive rash.
So I didn't throw the stone in the trash, but I might do more research
before I try it again because I was kind of miserable having severely irritated skin
for like a week. I don't know, I think this product might be too good to be true. I love
the idea of it. I love the concept, but I don't know. I don't know if I'd recommend it. Like,
using a classic razor is just unbeatable, I think. And so I don't know. I don't know if I'd recommend it. Like using a classic razor is just unbeatable, I think.
And so I don't know, I don't think you need to try this one.
Next, I caved.
I caved you guys.
I'm so embarrassed.
I said I never would.
I caved and I bought a skincare mini fridge.
I know, I'm, I literally, to be honest,
like this is so embarrassing.
I, I didn't want to admit this.
I almost kept this out.
I almost said, you know what? I don't want to tell them. They don't want to admit this. I almost kept this out. I almost said, you know what?
I don't want to tell them.
They don't need to know this about me.
I said I never would.
And now I'm, and now I did.
And I'm not proud of it.
And I don't want them to know.
But I'm honest.
And so I'm telling you that I did
buy a skincare mini fridge.
Now, obviously karma is real because I ended up hating it.
I bought the skincare mini fridge
because I love the idea of having a little mini
fridge on my bathroom countertop where I could just pull out products whenever I felt
like it and they'd feel nice and cold and refreshing and everything would be all in one place
in my bathroom. Because before my skincare mini fridge, I had an entire drawer in my actual food refrigerator
where I kept skincare products and things that I wanted to keep cold.
And it was kind of inconvenient to have to go downstairs, get the stuff out of my regular
fridge, and then go back into the bathroom to do my routine.
But also, calling that annoying is one of the more ridiculous things I've ever said.
Like calling that in convenience is one of my darkest moments yet, but I will admit it
did feel kind of inconvenient.
So I liked the idea of having a little mini skincare fridge in my bathroom.
Now I hated it, and here's why.
Number one, not cold enough.
It didn't get cold enough.
I want my skincare products to be frigid.
You know, my little ice roller, face roller thing,
sheet masks, you know, like the sheet masks
that you just slap on your face or whatever.
Different serums, et cetera.
I want them to be ice cold frigid almost frozen.
And this little mini fridge was not getting it.
It wasn't getting me there. The products were not cold enough.
It barely worked, to be honest. It also looked terrible on my bathroom
counter, and it took up so much space, which was frustrating.
Last but not least, the cord to plug in the little mini fridge thing
looked so terrible and took up so much space as well that I was like,
this is not it for
me.
This is just not it for me.
Now listen, if I had a massive bathroom countertop, like super long, you know, in the
little mini skincare fridge could be off in the corner.
Maybe it wouldn't be as big of a deal, but it was like right there in front of my face
and I was like, I can't handle this.
So I returned it.
I think it was a waste of my time and money.
And as of now, my skincare products are still
in my regular food fridge and that is how it's going
to be for the indefinite future.
I knew in my heart of hearts when the skincare fridge
became a thing that it was ridiculous.
And I should have stuck to my morals and not bought it.
But I did, and I regret it.
The next thing, as you can see, I have nails.
And some of my skincare products are in little pots, right?
Where you have to dig your finger in there to get the product out.
When you have long nails, this is a nightmare.
Now, for years, I've used the back of my nail to get product out of the little jars.
Obviously, I'm not digging my finger in and scooping.
Because if I do that, then I get a bunch of product under my nails and it gets stuck and it gets
gunky and gross. For years now, I've been using the back of my nail.
But even when I do that,
I still get product under my nails.
And it's one of my biggest pet peeves.
So finally, I made the decision to buy skin care spatulas,
little silicone skin care spatulas.
And these things have changed my life. I know it's stupid, but I'm so obsessed with
them. I can't even believe it. I can't even, I don't even know what I did beforehand. I don't know
what I did before them. Okay, it's the little things in life I swear to God because these are so dumb and
inconsequential and, and ridiculous, but they truly make my life better. Instead of digging my grimy finger
into my moisturizer pot thing,
I use one of these little spatulas and I dig,
and then I put it in the pot on my hand
and I rub my hands together
and then I rub the moisturizer all over my face
and there's nothing under my nails
and I didn't get my grimy finger into my moisturizer pot.
If I'm doing a face mask or something like that,
you know, I dig the little spatula in there
and I paint using the little spatula,
the face mask onto my face.
I get no face mask product on my hands.
They're just amazing.
Stupid, but amazing.
I would absolutely recommend those.
The next thing I bought is ridiculous.
I found, I don't even know how I found this online
or what made me want to buy this.
But somehow I stumbled upon a little phone stand,
like just a little metal phone stand online.
And I was like, I have so many uses for that.
For example, when I'm working at my desk,
it's nice to kind of have my phone
propped up so that if I get a text or something, I see it on my phone screen. It has a sort of place to
sit on my desk that makes sense, you know, where it's out invisible, but also it's nice to have a
designated place for your phone on your desk, I guess. You know, I'm thinking about how ridiculous
that statement is, like I can't.
Like, yeah, you can just have your phone sitting flat
on your desk, but how fun is it to have a little fun stand
for your phone to go?
Okay, listen, I'm not proud of it.
It's also useful for when I'm doing my makeup.
I like to watch a YouTube video while I'm doing my makeup. Listen to a podcast while I'm doing my makeup. I like to watch a YouTube video while I'm doing my makeup,
listen to a podcast while I'm doing my makeup,
watch a podcast while I'm doing my makeup.
And so this little phone stand, kind of amazing
to just plot my phone on it
and I can watch or listen to something
while I'm doing my makeup.
Same thing for when I'm eating alone.
When I'm eating alone, I like to watch something.
But I also like to eat at my table in my kitchen, you know, I don't like to eat in bed or
on the couch or by the TV or whatever because I don't want to make a mess and I do make a
mess. I'm a messy eater and so I have to be my own mommy and make myself eat at the table
because I will stain my couch or my bed. So when I'm eating, having a little
phone stand for my phone, so I can watch stuff while I'm eating, kind of magical, because
prior, I would lean my phone up against my paper towel holder. And listen, that worked,
but having a little designated phone
stand for when I'm eating, wow.
The more of the stories, I bought four of these little phone
stands.
One for my desk, one for my little other desk
where I do my makeup, some more of my makeup vanity,
one for my kitchen counter slash dining room table for when I'm eating and then one more for my bathroom for when I'm doing my skincare routine.
I have I can watch stuff. Listen, they were very affordable. That's why I bought four of them. I just couldn't help myself and now I have one in every room. I don't know.
Speaking of little phone things, I also bought,
I think I've actually mentioned this in an episode before,
but I bought this little phone deodorizer slash charger.
It basically looks like a tall bowl, or like a tall vase,
and there's a little slot where you can put your phone,
and you can just put your phone in it, slot where you can put your phone and you can
just put your phone in it, and it deodorizes your phone and charges your phone.
Now I don't know if it works when it comes to deodorizing.
I can't imagine that it does.
I don't know how it would, but it claims online that it does, so whatever.
I do know for sure though that it does wirelessly charge your phone, which is kind of magical. So I actually think this thing is great. I have it
on my desk and when I want my phone out of my face, just charging in a designated spot
where I know I'm not going to lose it. I put it in this little phone charger deodorizer
contraption. And if nothing else, my phone gets charged.
And it's also out of my site.
So I'm not as tempted to grab it and go on it
and get distracted when I'm trying to, you know,
work at my desk or whatever.
It gets it out of my site in an effective way.
I'm also, I'm double-tasking, you know what I mean?
I'm multitasking.
It's charging and I can't see it and I'm getting work done. And maybe it's also deodorizing it, but I'm not, I'm double-tasking, you know what I mean? I'm multitasking. It's charging and I can't see it and I'm getting work done.
And maybe it's also deodorizing it,
but I'm not going to claim that because I weirdly don't believe it.
And it seems too good to be true.
But it is a great contraption.
It would be actually nice to have it by my bed, too,
and I might buy a second one for by my bed.
But I need to slow down on these little contraptions
because again, I'm getting out of control.
Another thing I bought was a huge life changer for me, for years. Possibly my whole life.
I've been eating my fruits and vegetables that I buy from the grocery store unwashed.
Just eat them as is not even running water over them. I don't give a fuck. As I mentioned earlier, I don't care about germs.
Okay, I don't care about bacteria.
My mom always used to say that I was a dirty girl.
Okay, like, she's always kind of jokes about it with me because she's the complete opposite.
She's like a clean freak and I'm like not bothered by dirt and germs and all that.
I don't care.
That's not to say I'm like dirty,
like I'm not dirty, but things don't bother me.
Like if I drop food on the floor, I'll eat it.
You know what I mean?
I don't care.
I don't know, it's not something that keeps me up at night.
And there are some people where it does keep them up at night.
So in comparison, you know,
I'm pretty easy going with this stuff, but I found online
this fruit and vegetable cleaner. And it's basically this hockey puck looking thing that you turn on
and you put it into water, right? And you turn it on and it starts vibrating the water.
And then you put your fruits and veggies in this bowl of water and you let it sit and it starts vibrating the water. And then you put your fruits and veggies
in this bowl of water and you let it sit for like 10 minutes.
And basically what happens is the vibrating water
removes the dirt and stuff from your fruits or vegetables.
And you'll see at the bottom of the little bowl
at the end of everything that there's like a little pile of dirt.
And it's gross,
but this little fruit vegetable vibrating,
cleaning contraption is kind of amazing.
And the only inconvenient part about it
is that you do have to charge it,
which I don't like that.
I wish it was just permanently on,
but we can't have everything that we want.
So I can handle that I have to charge it every once in a while.
But this contraption's amazing,
and it's made cleaning for its imbecilables so much easier
and so much more effective because prior to this,
if I did on a rare occasion decide to clean
my fruits or vegetables,
I felt like I wasn't getting a deep clean enough.
Like I was just getting the stuff wet.
I feel like it wasn't actually getting dirt off
of the fruit or vegetables.
And this is like effective.
This shakes every last piece of dirt
off of the fruits and vegetables.
It's a cool contraption.
I would recommend it.
Next thing I bought was a vegetable chopper.
This changed my life.
Okay, I love a chopped salad.
I love things that are chopped.
I like eating things that are chopped, finally.
It's just easy to shovel into your mouth.
Love.
Also, chopped ingredients are very popular
in certain recipes, recipes that I love.
The truth is, chopping is a necessary part of cooking,
especially for me, as somebody who just likes chopped foods.
Unfortunately, I hate actually chopping things.
I like to consume the chopped things.
I don't like to do the chopping.
So I bought this vegetable chopper.
All you have to do is literally
press down on this contraption and it chops the food that you want to chop. It's so fast, it's so
easy, it's too good to be true. So I'm really into this food chopper. Okay, this thing's great. You know, I can make a chop salad in five minutes,
whereas prior to my little chopper thing,
it would have taken me probably 30 minutes,
just because it takes so much time
to chop everything properly.
Also chopping an onion has never been easier.
Okay, chopping an onion is usually something I dread
when I'm cooking. Not anymore. Incredible
kitchen contraption. And not only does it chop, but it also stores everything in this little container
underneath. So like, once you chop it down, you press down on the chopper thing, it all gets caught
in this bottom compartment. And it's just magical. This next thing is so niche, okay?
But I've always hated belts because I feel like I can never find a belt that's the right size.
You know, I might have a belt that is the right size, but I'm in between two belt holes. Like,
one of them is a little too tight, but then the one that's one hole over is a little bit too loose.
And I wish that there's just a hole right in between.
Also sometimes I'll buy a belt from a thrift store, for example,
and the belt will be too big.
And I'll have to cut a hole in the belt with my scissors
or take it to a tailor or something to get it fixed.
And cutting a hole in it looks terrible
and going to the tailor is an inconvenience.
So you wanna know what I did?
I bought a belt loop hole punch.
So it's basically this hole punch looking thing
that cuts through leather easily
and has multiple different sizes.
So you can just cut new holes in your belt
whenever you please.
It is so amazing.
I use it all the time because I love buying vintage belts.
I'm very particular about how my clothes fit.
And so I find myself using this belt hole puncher like once a month, twice a month, even.
It's also useful for other things.
I can imagine, but I haven't figured out what yet.
But I'm obsessed with this thing. It's a gadget that I think everybody should have in their house.
If you're into belts, if you're not into belts, skip that one. But, incredible product. Okay,
incredible invention. It's nothing new, but everybody should have one. Next, electric lighter. So,
have one. Next, electric lighter. So I love candles. I love candles. I have them all over my house. And as a candle lover, myself, I decided I would pick up an electric lighter.
An electric lighter is basically, you know, eight-inch-long contraption that you can charge, that basically lights things,
lights candles without like a flame. It uses more of like a sort of like almost taser-like electricity
explosion. Anyway, the thing that's nice about it is that number one, it doesn't run out of juice
like a normal lighter, you know, like the normal like, big lighters. Those run out of juice
relatively quick and they're kind of unreliable. Like sometimes the little big lighters, like,
they'll just stop working for a week and then all of a sudden they start working again
Like I just I don't know it. They're not reliable
Whereas this thing when it's charged up it always works
It always works you can always rely on it as long as it's charged and listen
I love matches, but they're a little bit less safe, I guess then this electric lighter thing because
Let's say you light a normal match and you
light your candle, and then you blow out the match, and then you throw the extinguished
match into the trash can.
But it's still a little bit too hot, and then it lights everything in your trash can on
fire.
Not good.
That's why you have to run your matches underwater when you're done, or put your mouth
on them, which is what I do, and it's gross.
That's stressful and unfortunate.
The other thing about matches is that they are a little sketchy.
One time, I lit a match, and I guess I lit it too hard, like I used too much pressure
when I was lighting the match.
So it lit on fire, but as it lit on fire, it snapped in half.
And the half of the match that was on fire
flew onto a carpet.
And luckily I blew it out and it didn't light
the carpet on fire.
It melted a little spot, but it didn't catch on fire,
which was incredibly lucky.
But yeah, matches are kind of sketchy.
I don't love them.
They're not my favorite way to light things on fire.
So
Long story short, this little electric lighter is kind of a vibe. I would recommend it. I think it's great.
And last but not least, this is actually something that I've been buying for a while now,
but I don't know if I've ever talked about it and I think I need to talk about it again.
Even if I've already talked about it, I still need I need to talk about it again. Even if I've already talked about it,
I still need to talk about it again.
True lemon and true lime powder.
I am so obsessed with this invention.
I don't know how this is not the biggest product
in America right now today.
Basically what it is is, it's a little packet.
It's, there's these little packets,
almost like a sugar packet or a salt packet that's filled
with lemon or lime extract powder.
And basically, one little packet is equivalent to one wedge of lemon or lime.
And you can use them for everything.
Okay, when I'm making a cocktail, I put two little lime powders in my drink, so sour,
so limey, so great.
Let's say I make myself a cup of tea,
and I want to put a little bit of lemon in there.
Instead of cracking open a lemon juice from my fridge
or cutting open a lemon and squeezing it in there,
I just use one of these little lemon packets
and I get the exact same flavor and effect,
and it's perfectly potent and it's predictable,
and it's predictable.
And it's great.
Listen, there are times when I want a fresh lemon or lime in my drink, mainly for aesthetic
purposes, but also for flavor.
You know, it definitely is nice to have the real thing in there.
It's so much work to be constantly buying lemons and limes.
And a lot of times they end up going bad
or you'll get a few limes that are actually really dry
and don't have any juice in them
so they don't work when you try to squeeze
into your drink.
This lemon and lime powder, I am so obsessed.
I use it on a daily basis.
And when I'm going out for the night sometimes,
and I know I'm gonna be having drinks,
I put a few of them in my purse,
and I bring them out with me,
and when I order my tequila soda,
and they don't give me a juicy lime on the side,
I have lime in my bag on deck ready to go.
I will say though, it is like a bizarre thing to whip out
and people think I'm pouring illicit drugs into my drink.
They're like, what are you doing?
So you do have to explain to the group that you're with.
Hey everybody, just wanted to let you all know
that I'm putting my true lime powder into my tequila soda
and I'm not putting meth into my drink.
I'm not putting ketamine into my drink.
Thank you, it's not that.
If you want that, you need to go to somebody else.
It's not gonna come from me.
This is my true lime powder.
And if you knew what was best for you,
you would have some in your bag as well right now
because it makes your cocktail taste so much better.
I cannot drink an alcohol beverage
without at least two true lime powders in my drink.
Like it just makes it so limey and so good.
Okay, you guys, that's all I have for today.
I just had to get off my chest, all of these little items
because as dumb and inconsequential
and stupid and ridiculous and pointless as they may be.
They do genuinely spark joy for me on a daily basis, and they make my life a slight bit more
convenient, not a lot, but enough where it's satisfying.
So I had to share these things.
You know, go pick them up if you feel like it, if you feel so inclined.
I love these things, except for the skincare fridge.
Everything else I like, but I think the skincare fridge
was the only thing I didn't like.
Yeah, pick up pretty much everything that I mentioned
except for the skincare fridge.
All right, that's all I got for today.
Thank you guys for listening and hanging out.
I hope you enjoyed.
