#Ad Okay, I have to share this because it’s officially part of my nightly routine now — and I’m genuinely obsessed. 😍

I’ve been using the MySmile® LP221 Water Flosser + Mouthwash Duo, and it’s honestly a glow-up for your smile. 🦷✨ Think dentist-clean teeth, but make it at-home, cordless, and aesthetic on your counter.

It deep-cleans between every tooth, keeps your breath minty fresh 24/7, and makes oral care feel like self-care. I’ve been using it right after skincare — it’s my new GRWM but add freshness moment before bed. 💫

Gentle but powerful, safe for gums + braces, and looks so chic sitting next to my skincare lineup. If you love cleaner teeth, fresher breath, and that just-left-the-dentist feeling… you’ll be low-key obsessed too.

The secret? This Bissell stick vacuum from Walmart. It wasn’t a toy—it actually worked! The adjustable pole made it the perfect height for him, and the suction was strong enough to keep up with our everyday messes. He thought it was fun, and I thought it was genius.

Fast-forward to today, and this same vacuum is still a go-to in our house. And right now, it’s on sale for only $25—such a good deal for something that makes cleaning easier (and even kid-approved 😉).
