Every Tuesday I try a new product and post a (brutally honest) review. This week I’m sharing my experience with the Quip electric toothbrush compared to my old tried-and-true Sonicare.

Every Tuesday I'm going to try a new product and post a (brutally honest) review. First up, compression socks. I know it sounds like something your great grandma would recommend, but thanks to a company called Comrad, compression socks have come a long way, baby!
