Oral-B iO is the Best Electric Toothbrush

Oral-B iO Electric Toothbrush

Today I am sharing a product that I recently starting using and have been loving since the first use. Allow me to introduce you to the Oral-B iO Toothbrush.

Unlike other brushes, the Oral-B iO has a first-of-its-kind smooth magnetic system to clean your teeth, which is truly incredible.

Is the Oral-B iO worth it?

I’ve been a super fan of electric toothbrushes for 5+ years. The first time I put the Oral-B iO to the test, I was beyond impressed.

It counts up for the dentist recommended 2 minutes!

The frictionless, smooth magnetic drive system transfers energy to the bristle tips for a clean that wows

The Oral-B iO has been giving my teeth a professional clean feel every single day. In my opinion, electric toothbrushes are worth every penny. Would I recommend it? Absolutely.

What is special about Oral-B iO?

In these photos here you can see the dentist-inspired round brush head, as well as the “Smart Pressure Sensor” that turns read when brushing too hard and green when brushing is just right to help keep gums protected. Technology amazes me!

The toothbrush has 6 Smart Modes for personalized brushing: daily clean, whitening, gum care, sensitive, intense, and super sensitive.

Electric toothbrushes will last you years because the brush head can be easily replaced every few months. For best results, replace the Oral-B iO replacement brush heads every 3 months.

You can shop everything below, and I definitely recommend including this in your holiday list!

The Oral-B iO toothbrush is the best electric toothbrush, and it makes for a perfect holiday gift – to level up your daily self-care routine, or that of your loved ones!

THE APRIL BOX

Who else switches into workout clothes the minute they arrive home from work?! I always need to! Aren’t fitness clothes the most comfortable outfit?! Even if I do not make it to my weekly gym classes – my pups need me to take them out for their own 2-3 mile runs! haha. I have been doing this for years, even when I was in high school and in college, after classes I would go work out. So I am always needing new gym outfits, and this is why I am loving Ellie’s Activewear Subscription Box. This is an ultra useful box that every girl wants and sells out every month.

Scroll down to see what I received in my April Box!!!

WHAT WILL YOU GET EVERY MONTH?

Sports Bra
Top
Leggings or Capris
Workout Accessory
Piece of Equipment

You will always receive five items per month.

Before a box ships, you have 5 days to preview it and confirm that you want the selection. A box is not shipped without your approval. If what is in the box is not your style, you just choose ‘skip’ and it will not be shipped to you. So simple!

If you love athleisure looks for every day comfortable wear, need new outfits for your fitness routine, or would love to have a workout routine going – you will love Ellie’s Activewear Subscription box!

LET’S WORK OUT!

ELLIE

SUBSCRIPCIÓN DE ROPA ACTIVA

Alguna de ustedes se pone la ropa de gimnasia ni bien llega a su casa del trabajo?! La ropa de gym es tan cómoda no les parece? En cuanto llego del trabajo, me pongo mis leggings, porque incluso si no logro llegar a mis clases de gimnasia, ¡mis cachorras necesitan que las saque para su propio ejercicio! jaja. Así que siempre estoy necesitando nuevos equipos de fitness, y es por eso que me ha resultado ultra práctica la caja mensual de Ellie’s Activewear. Las cajas de suscripción mensual estan muy de moda, principalmente porque casi todo el mundo está ocupado y sin mucho tiempo libre para ir al shopping. La caja de Ellie es la que todas las chicas quieren y se agota todos los meses.

LO QUE RECIBEN MENSUALMENTE:

Sujetador
Top de Ejercicio
Leggings largas o cortas
Accesorio para hacer ejercicio
Item de ejercicio

Siempre van a recibir esas cinco cosas de fitness.

Antes de que se les envíe la caja, tienen 5 días para verla y confirmar si desean la selección. Las cajas no se envían sin tu aprobación. Si lo que está en la caja no es tu estilo, simplemente seleccionas la opción de “saltear” la caja y no será enviada. ¡Es tan sencillo!

Les va a encantar esta caja de fitness. Ya sea que les gusta usar vestimenta cómoda todos los días, o hacen ejercicio a diario, o desean crear una rutina saludable de ejercicio, esta caja las va a super motivar.

An Easy & Healthy Smoothie Recipe: Cantaloupe Veggie Smoothie

AN EASY & HEALTHY SMOOTHIE RECIPE: CANTALOUPE VEGGIE SMOOTHIE

Happy Monday! When it’s time to have breakfast in the morning, I like to prepare something nutritious, healthy and super quick to make. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day – so it’s important to provide your body with what it needs.

Growing up at my parent’s home, I recall hearing my dad say to us: ‘Who wants a bit of my smoothie?’ every-single-day. His favorite (and only) smoothie has been Banana + Milk. He has been preparing and drinking that same smoothie for the last TWENTY years! And it is impossible to convince him to switch it up.

To update my dad’s ‘Classic Smoothie,’ 😉 I have been mixing fruits with vegetables for years. Below you will find one easy and healthy recipe that I love!

For me, this is the easiest way to eat 3 to 6 servings of fruits & vegetables every day of the week.

For you, let it be the smoothie that helps you jump-start your day. Prepare & enjoy!

INGREDIENTS:

DIRECTIONS:

Place the ingredients inside the blender.

2 peeled and chopped slices of cantaloupe
1 fresh peeled banana
3/4 of a carrot
1 cup of Silk Cashew Unsweetened Vanilla Milk
1 or 2 tbsp of Whole Ground Flaxseed Meal

Process in the blender for 10 seconds or until smooth.

** Optional: Almond Milk or Soy Milk (instead of Cashew Milk). Agave nectar, raw honey, or other liquid sweetener, optional. Ice cubes.

BLENDER:

SHOP: Oster Blender & Smoothie Cup

If you do not yet own a blender, you might be asking yourself – which do I buy?! There are tons of blenders or juicers to choose from, and at various prices – it can be quite overwhelming! I have been using the same blender DAILY for the last 2-3 years: Oster Blender & Smoothie Cup ($89.99). I chose the Oster because it is: (1) easy to wash, (2) super simple to use, (3) lightweight, and (4) does not take up much space. This blender comes with multiple speed-control buttons.

If you prefer more advanced blenders, see these below!

Oster Blend Plus Food Processor Attachment – $129.99
Magic Bullet Blender 11 Piece Set – $39.95
Nutri Ninja Pro Complete Personal Blender/Extractor – $ 89.99

These easy to make smoothies are high in vitamins A and C, others contain anti-inflammatory properties, some possess antioxidants, and others help balance the blood-sugar. I have so many smoothie recipes that I prepare on a weekly basis, these are from these past few weeks. I hope that this post encourages you to eat more fruits & veggies, feel free to share!

Enjoy & let me know what you think!

** I do not add sugar to any of my smoothies. These recipes are based on my personal taste. 🙂
