They get up to 30 hours of total listening time (with the USB-C charging case included). The earbuds also have voice isolation, which helps lower environmental sounds to make it easier for you to hear during phone calls and for the person you’re talking to hear you more clearly. They have spatial audio, which means your music, podcasts and audiobooks have immersive, 3D-like sound. Both the case and the AirPods themselves are water, dust and sweat resistant.As a home and kitchen editor and someone who cooks a lot myself, Beautiful by Drew Barrymore is one of my favorite kitchen appliance brands. This particular appliance is a mix between a stovetop skillet and an electric hot plate. It’s great for sautéing vegetables, making stir fries, searing meat and poultry and anything else you’d cook in a skillet. It comes with a glass lid (allowing you to watch your food and prevent burning) and it also has a holder for the lid, which helps you avoid dripping food or condensation on your countertop. The appliance has a 7-quart capacity, cast aluminum material and the base includes a dial on the side to control the heat.This set of stainless steel mixing bowls includes five bowls of increasing size, each of which comes with a lid. Perfect for marinating, baking and meal prepping, the bowls are also freezer safe and rust resistant, and since they’re made of stainless steel, they won’t break if you drop them on the floor or table. They’re also dishwasher safe so cleaning is simple. And, since they increase in size, they’re all nestable, which helps save room in your cabinets.I’ve written a lot about vacuums as an editor that covers cleaning and home products, and iRobot is one of the best robot vacuum brands available. This model is both a vacuum and mop that uses Lidar mapping technology, which allows it to learn your home to provide an efficient cleaning process and avoid running into furniture. It sweeps, cleans up dirt and dust and uses clean water to mop hard surface floors. It works with voice commands and an app, and has multiple levels of suction for picking up heavy debris.La Roche-Posay makes some of our favorite skin care products, including sunscreens, moisturizers and barrier creams. This fragrance-free moisturizer, which is accepted by the National Eczema Association, helps keep dry skin on the body and face hydrated for up to 48 hours, according to the brand. It contains niacinamide, which is known to soothe skin, and ceramides and shea butter, both of which supply moisture, all without leaving behind a greasy feel.Why trust Jattvibe Selected?I’m a commerce editor at Jattvibe Selected, where I write about deals and sale events daily.
