No matter how complicated or uncomplicated our daily ablutions may be, we all wash our faces at some point in the day with water (with the exception of younger brothers who never do but still manage to have perfect skin ugh). But for all you face-washers out there: Do you find it super annoying when no matter how much you try, you inevitably have water trickling down your forearms onto your PJs, legs, and all over the floor… Like really, it always ends up being a splashy event.
Well, we recently figured out a simple solution: sweat bands!! Lol yes, those wristbands tennis players wear on the court to wipe off their sweat. So niche, we know, but they can also serve the same moisture-absorbing function in the bathroom. Let’s call it an ~underhanded~ hack.

No joke - these bands can really make face-washing a civilized, no-mess lavatory sport. Chloe went down a rabbit hole and found these vintage Courrèges sweatbands on Depop. Is it too extra to wear these in the bathroom??
Hope you enjoyed the product recs from last week! Thanks again to our readers for submitting receipts.
If you want to share your awesome purchase(s) and have a chance to be featured in our future newsletters, pls forward your emailed order confirmation(s) to [email protected]! Feel free to add a one-sentence review. As always, we’ll check in with you to coordinate details before we post.
If your submission gets chosen, we will send you a little something to commemorate your inauguration into our circle of trust. Last week’s honorees received Koeze’s Cream-Nut peanut butter clusters. We shouted out Koeze in a previous newsletter & made a viral TikTok. The family behind the brand sent us a care package after the TikTok went viral, so we’re spreading the love to you. Sharing is caring…
