As hard as we try to budget our time, we often end up spending too much time on one thing or another, and still end up being late. Cube timers are a hot new trend that time every aspect of your routine. Depending on the amount of time you want to spend on something, just flip the cube to that specific time and you’re good to go. When the timer goes off, it’s on to the next task you go!

Hydrating body wash lotion is something that has been advertised quite frequently lately. It’s actually pretty nifty if you ask me.

Just replace the blade with a lid, and you’re out the door!
