#WOOSHAPPROVED: SMART, TIME-SAVING FINDS FOR A BUSY FALL

Here at Woosh HQ we like to hold on to summer until the very last minute, but the realization that the first day of fall is this Sunday (September 22) just hit us with a massive bang. So, there’s no denying it: summertime is officially over.

Fall brings with it many things. It’s undoubtedly one of the best holiday seasons of the year, and you get to start thinking about wardrobe and makeup updates for the cooler weather – which is never a bad thing. But it can also be a busy time, with the kids back at school and work ramping up. So, if you’re feeling somewhat snowed under right now, do yourself a favor and treat yourself to one of these time-saving fall finds that promise to make your life a whole lot easier.

And breathe…

Iced Coffee Minus The Ice: What The… Whaaat?

If you love iced coffee but hate the, er, ice, don’t worry, you’re neither weird nor alone. Turns out most coffee-lovers get angry by how much a ton of ice cubes dilutes the strength and flavor of their favorite cup of Joe. So what’s the solution? Well, it doesn’t take a brain surgeon to figure it out: you just need to ditch the ice. But how? Ha, that’s where the brains are needed, and that’s what Zoku has in bundles if their magical Iced Coffee Maker is anything to go by. Pop the stainless steel interior in the freezer, slip it back in its sleeve once your brew is ready, pour your hot coffee into the mug and it’ll be ice cold in five or so minutes. Just enough time to grab your coat, fix your hair and finish getting ready.

Yes, You Can Do Awesome Eye Makeup In Seconds

Of all the steps in your beauty routine, eye makeup is the trickiest to perfect. Whether you regularly fall foul of eye shadow fallout or simply cannot master your left eye as well as your right, there’s always something to deal with. And when time is of the essence you’re even more likely to rush it and screw it up. Dang, if only there was a helpful tool to guide your eye makeup application AND catch wayward powder from getting everywhere.

Actually, there is, and it comes in the shape of our Even Eye StencilsSoft, squidgy and gentle on your skin, these silicone stencils can be used time and again for quickly and cleanly guiding your eye shadow, leaving you with gorgeous eye makeup every time. Job done.

When You Have No Time For To Go For A Massage

Stressful times call for extra me-time to help calm your mind and relieve tight, stuff muscles. Shame that you have zero time for that, right? Well, you might not be able to carve out an hour or so to go for an actual massage, but what if you could soothe your muscles and relax your body with a deep shiatsu massage without having to leave the house? Erm, count us well and truly in.

The Nekteck Shiatsu Neck and Back Massager works like a kind of warming, kneading pillow you simply pop around your shoulders, neck or back (it even works on your legs!) for a deep massage whenever you need it. Eight rotating kneading rollers get to work on tight or painful muscles while infrared heat improves circulation and helps you relax. Use it at home, at your desk, in your car, or wherever. In fact, use it everywhere. Who's counting?

Speedy Hair Drying – Minus The Wild Pricetag

We don’t know about you but we hate drying our hair. It’s just so time-consuming. And while we’d all love to have the cash to lay down 500 bucks for one of ‘those’ hairdryers, that’s a whole lot of money that could be put to better use elsewhere.

The good news is we recently discovered the new Blex C1 High-Speed Hair Dryer which dries hair in minutes (around 3-7 depending on your hair length) and is so light your arms and shoulders will love you. It also has a clever, built-in heat control system which detects the temperature of your hair and adjusts accordingly so as not to overheat it and cause damage. Smart stuff right there. Even better is that it's less than $100 which proves you don’t have to refinance your home for the sake of your hair.

Calling All Fur Baby Parents

Walking the dog before work or the school run is great for preparing you for the day. But not when the weather gets cruddy and rain and mud start to ruin your get-out-the-door routine. Seriously, why does it have to be so hard sometimes? If you regularly have no time for paw cleaning but don’t want to come home to dirty, dried-in paw prints after a long day at the office, get your paws (sorry, not sorry) on the Dexas MudBuster Portable Dog Paw Cleaner. Sure, it may look like something you’d drink a smoothie from but this little plastic cup actually contains soft silicone bristles to remove dirt, mud, leaves and whatever else your pooch likes to get into. Just add water, insert a paw, twist, remove, dry and repeat. Comes in three different sizes for your favorite furry friend.

Multitasking Skincare At Its Best

Everyone knows that not cleansing your skin before bed is one of the ultimate beauty sins. Yet we’re all guilty of doing it thanks to being too tired and passing out after a hectic day or heavy night. Cleansing facial wipes were invented for this exact reason but they’re a) usually pumped full of chemicals and b) terrible for the environment. No thank you. Still, a quick cleanse is often exactly what the beauty doctor ordered, so in those moments try Milk Hydro Ungrip Makeup Remover + Cleansing Water.

Clean, vegan and free of oils, parabens and fragrance, it's perfect for sensitive skin and removes every last scrap of oil, makeup and grime while leaving your skin feeling soft and hydrated. Sidenote: you don’t even need to rinse it off, saving you a further, invaluable 30 seconds. Because it all adds up, right?

The Light That’ll Stop You Losing It

Studies show that, on average, we spend about 76 days of our lives rummaging around in our purses and bags looking for stuff. We don’t like that kind of math, so can’t wait to get our hands on this SOI Automatic Purse Light from Brainstream. At just three inches in diameter and weighing less than two ounces (that’s about the weight of an egg) this LED light automatically switches itself on when it senses the movement and shape of a hand. We’ve no idea how on earth it does that but we don’t really care! All we know is that it works. It even switches itself off again after about 10 seconds, giving you the perfect amount of time to answer your cell or find your lip gloss.

Perfect Your Complexion In Minutes

Makeup on-the-go used to require a whole purse full of cosmetics and brushes. Which then required a decent mirror and few spare minutes in order to shape up your face. No longer so. Our sleek, compact Fold Out Complexion Kit contains all you need to keep your skin looking freakin’ fabulous, at any time of the day. With two concealers for eye bag and pimple coverage, the cutest blush to warm up your cheeks, two foundation powders for touching up your skin, a perfectly sized mirror, AND the 4-in-1 Secret Brush, may your makeup always be marvellous and your time your own from hereon in. Thanks in an email, please.

Robot Vacuums FTW!

House-cleaning: unless you’re being paid to do it for a living, then it’s the pits. But if you don’t like the idea of having someone else in your house, putting things back in the wrong place and missing important bits underneath the couch, what’s the alternative? We think the iRobot Combo Essential Roomba is a solid place to start. It’s the cheapest in the iRobot family but don’t let that fool you because it still picks up kitchen crumbs, dust bunnies and dog hair without you having to lift a finger. It’s also self-emptying and has a retractable robot arm for mopping as well as vacuuming. Love that. Now who’s going to invent a robot to clean the bathroom, please?

The Ultimate Lazy Cook’s Friend

We’re not going to lie to you, this one is kind of ridiculous. But it’s just on the right side of genius that we desperately want one!

Say hello to the Automatic Pan Stirrer from Uncommon Goods. Yes, you read that correctly, and yes, it’s exactly what you think it is: a stirring arm (or three to be exact) that you place in your pan to continuously stir the pot so you don’t have to. It’s like having an extra pair of hands in the kitchen, but without someone annoying getting in the way. Come on, you know you want to!

Everyone’s Favorite Hair Hack

Since launching late this summer, Blake Lively’s new hair care and styling range, Blake Brown, has been flying off the shelves, both online and in Target stores nationwide. It completely sold out for a few nerve-wracking weeks, but thankfully, this Amber Vanille Dry Shampoo is back, and who doesn’t love a good dry shampoo for helping your hair go that extra day? Blake’s version smells awesome (almost like a fine fragrance) and leaves zero white residue while mopping up excess oil and freshening up your do. We’re total converts.

Time To Be In Charge

We’ve all been there: forgotten to charge our Apple Watch overnight or just not placed it on the charger properly. Then you wake up in the morning only to have, like, five minutes worth of juice for the entire day and a limited amount of time to get any more. In those times of need, don’t stress, just make sure you have a Huoto Portable Apple Watch Charger in your purse to pump up your power on-the-go. You can even leave your watch on and charge it right there on your wrist, giving you full power in as little as 30 minutes.
