The Ultimate List: 7 New Favourite Things I'm Loving Right Now

Welcome, my friends, to an unexpected corner of my world. Today, I'm excited to spill the tea on my top picks—products, items, and services that have been recently integrated into my life. While some might consider this post a risk of oversharing (TMI alert!), I believe that sharing is caring, especially when it comes to the utterly fabulous items that have become my absolute essentials.

I think it’s important to mention that I am not being paid, bribed or courted by any of these brands, but if you are out there Prada, I’d be happy to make you the first exception.

So, without further ado, AND in no particular order…WAIT…that’s a complete lie, I am leading with the best…

  1. The WomaniZer: Where Passion Takes Flight 🌟

Let's kick off this rollicking adventure with a true gem, The Womanizer. Prepare to have your mind blown, as this isn't just your average pleasure device—it's an absolute passion powerhouse that promises to redefine your experiences in ways you couldn't have fathomed before.

Distinct from the run-of-the-mill vibrators (looking at you, The Rabbit), The Womanizer boasts Air Technology that operates across 14 intensity levels, all while maintaining an impressive hush. As a water enthusiast, I can confidently declare that this delightful companion holds its own, even in the bathtub, as it is completely submersible —There has not been a better bath toy since the Rubber Duckie.

2.ChatGPT: Beyond Words, A Digital Marvel 💬

(as written by ChatGPT)

Hold onto your seats because ChatGPT is about to dazzle you, much like Google's worldwide mapping extravaganza! This dynamic AI program isn't just another run-of-the-mill algorithm; it's a digital genie encapsulated within a virtual bottle, ready to grant your wishes for insights, ideas, and enthralling conversation that will make you question life before its arrival.

Behold its versatility: (still written by ChatGPT)

  • Homework Hero: Students, brace yourselves for explanations, summaries, and assignment ideas that turn complex subjects into comprehensible brilliance.

  • Writing Wizardry: From essays to reports, ChatGPT provides invaluable suggestions, brainstorming sessions, and proofreading assistance.

  • Language Luminary: Language aficionados, engage ChatGPT for writing practice, translations, and expanding your vocabulary in your target language.

  • Research Maven: Embarking on new subjects? ChatGPT offers overviews, pertinent information, and initial sources to fuel your research endeavours.

  • Content Conjurer: Bloggers, social media maestros, and marketers, rejoice! ChatGPT generates fresh content ideas, captivating headlines, and engaging social media posts.

  • Code Companion: Aspiring coders, seek explanations, debugging guidance, and coding snippets from ChatGPT to enhance your programming prowess.

  • Friendly Banter: Need a chat buddy? ChatGPT steps in as your virtual companion, offering abundant entertainment and companionship.

  • Culinary and DIY Ally: Home cooks and DIY enthusiasts delight in ChatGPT's recipes, cooking tips, and ingenious project ideas.

  • Introspective Confidant: Those seeking introspection and personal expression engage with ChatGPT for enlightening conversations that foster self-discovery.

Bonus anecdote: I recently entrusted ChatGPT with "travel agent" duties during my Rome escapade, and the results were nothing short of brilliance. Curious minds can catch a one-minute TikTok tour of my trip, meticulously curated by my newfound personal assistant.

3. The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution: Skin Nirvana 



Say hello to skin nirvana courtesy of The Ordinary's Peeling Solution. Consider it a spa day at home, minus the calming melodies and cucumber slices. Designed for weekly use, this potent treatment stars AHAs and BHAs, uniting forces to exfoliate, refine, unclog pores, and rejuvenate your skin. The pièce de résistance in my overflowing array of beauty products also earns top marks for its budget-friendly price point.

4. Tom's of Maine Unscented: Naturally Fantastic 🌿

Serendipity (code, for I forgot to pack deodorant) led me to the Tom's of Maine Unscented Deodorant. Unlike my usual Mitchum stick, Tom's glides on smoothly, devoid of stickiness, and it's remarkably enduring.

Free from aluminium and synthetic fragrances with names like Summer Breeze and Rose Garden (seriously, who wants to smell like a deodorant?!), Tom's proves that embracing odour-free confidence doesn't compromise your skin or the environment. 

5. RevitaLash Advance Lash Envy Alert 👁️

Ready for lashes that would put Rapunzel to the test? Enter RevitaLash. Advanced, the hero that transformed my tiny, straight lashes into a voluminous spectacle… (almost). While I've explored numerous lash-growing serums—including the acclaimed Latisse, ranked number one—RevitaLash (earning second place), I prefer RevitaLash. It did a better job for me and didn't come with Latisse's potential eye-colour-changing caveat. So, for this girl, this product has absolutely delivered magnificence.

6. Body Fat Scale Senssun Health: Stylish Weighing 🏋️

Say hello to precision with the Body Fat Scale Senssun Health—a scale designed to provide comprehensive body composition insights. Boasting accuracy in measuring body weight, body fat, water, muscle mass, calories, and bone mass percentage, this scale syncs seamlessly with its app and is compatible with Apple Health and Google. A reassuring side note: My recent DEXA Body scan mirrored the Senssun scale's results, cementing its accuracy. 

NYT Games App: Brain Teasers on the Go 🧩

Embrace the NYT Games App for an intellectual escapade during train rides and flights. This subscription-based app (priced around $25 US annually) hosts various games, although I just play the Crossword.

While I've yet to conquer the enigmatic Sunday Crossword (the ultimate challenge), the app dishes out daily crosswords throughout the week, progressively increasing in complexity. With over 10,000 crosswords and mini crosswords in its archives, I've found this to be a smarter alternative to Candy Crush.

However, refrain from sharing your opinions on the deodorant—I think there are far more exciting products we could be chatting about on this list.

Oh, one last thing: according to Dr. Oz and Dr. Rosen, authors of “You, The Owners Manual, “having regular orgasms can make you actually live longer. Not that we need another reason.
