8 Things I Use Everyday But Never Show on My Blog

After recovering from a cold, I got a terrible allergic reaction on my face that made the skin around my eyes itch so much — I really wish to know what caused that, whether some pollen from the big winds we had the last couple days, something new I ate, or something else!  So yesterday I stayed home, playing around, changed my blog’s theme, as you might have noticed.  Wandering around the house made me realize, there are so many things I use everyday to make life easier or better, but I have never shown on my blog.  I hope you don’t mind me to share some of them with you today, and I hope some might give you some inspiration and help.

 

1.Eve Mattress. Gifted by a friend from U.K., it is a queen size mattress that was actually delivered to my house by UPS in a box.  I couldn’t believe a real queen mattress could fit in that box, but we pulled it out from the box and like magic, it’s already ready to use!  (It is some kind of foam, and just sort of filled up with air by itself when we took it from the box.)  I have been sleeping on it for a week, and I really like it.  It gives good support for my neck and back (where I have pain by the end of most days), and I like that when Bob moves, I don’t notice it at all, so now his moving around doesn’t affect my sleep — much better than the old mattress.  I am a light sleeper, so a little unusual noise or movement can really wake me up.  If you are looking for a new mattress for the coming holidays and New Year, I strongly suggest you to give them a try(Enter Code”EveNov100e” – get 100$ off until the end of this month). The 100 days return policy is a good one, but we won’t be returning ours; we like it so much, we already gave away the old mattress.

 

 

2.Nike “Air Max” Running Shoes. I joined a new gym last month, and I really love it.  Of course, a new gym means new outfits and sports gear.  I used to practice hot yoga, so I didn’t really need good exercise shoes before, but now I do.  My hunt ended when I saw these Hot Pink Nike running shoes — beautiful color, good support and I get so many compliments wearing them.

 

3. Quilted Koala Tote bag.  Not that the pattern is lovely, but it is so practical.  I carry it to the grocery store, to the gym, and it carries all the outfit changes I need when going out for a photo-shoot. I like that it is very strong and can carry more than you can imagine.

 

4. Calvin Klein Underwear. I wear the same style cotton underwear almost everyday, with some exception for cases when wearing some very flattering dress/pants.  I got mine in Costco (a wholesale membership store) in our area with a good price, and you can get them here.

 

5. A “water pick”/flosser, originally used by Bob before we met, loved second by Red Bear (that’s the truth, he has liked to use that since he was 5!), then finally to me, and now it has become everybody’s everyday use. It supposed to be good for your teeth and your gums, and it does a fantastic job of cleaning your mouth.  You still have to brush, of course, but your mouth will feel so clean with the Water Pick!

 

6. T3 Hair styling tool. Easy, fast and lasts long; need I say more?

 

7. Furry slippers. The same as most Asian people, I like to wear slippers at home.  I bought this one last year for Red Bear’s Christmas gift, but somehow it runs so big and it finally became my favorite.  I like to keep my feet dry and warm when working in front of the computer during chilly days. and it’s fun to chase Red Bear around wearing them.  Found some other cute styles here.

 

 

8. H&M Sweatpants. Maybe I shouldn’t show you this one, it might totally damage my image in your mind. Ha! But I have to be honest with you, I wear them as pajamas, working around home, even to the gym. And they can be thrown to everywhere and you just wash it anytime in the washing machine.  You will like it. too!

 

 

I think that’s all for today, thank you again for your visiting. I will see you tomorrow, in a fancy dress, I promise!
