I Tried The Philips Sonicare DiamondClean Smart Toothbrush — Here’s What I Thought

Everyone knows that September is the unofficial new year. And with the way 2020 has been going so far, I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s excited to see it arrive. A new year means a fresh start and new good habits. 

One area I’m always looking to improve is my morning and bedtime routine. I’ve got my skincare on lock, so for the months ahead, I wanted to focus on improving my oral care game, which to be honest, I’ve never been super excited about. But with my dentist fully booked, I wanted to see what I could do to show my teeth some love at home. 

Naturally, I gravitated towards upgrading my toothbrush.

I was a little nervous to make the switch from manual to rechargeable because my gums and teeth are pretty sensitive. 

But while doing some research, I found the Philips Sonicare DiamondClean Smart Toothbrush, which has different levels of intensity that I can adjust while I get used to the change. 

It also uses smart sensor technology that connects to the Philips Sonicare app to help give you a personalized brushing experience.  

All you have to do is download the app, connect your toothbrush, and get brushing. The Philips Sonicare app tracks progress and improves your own brushing technique through Bluetooth wireless technology. The smart sensor delivers smart location, scrubbing, and pressure sensors to customize the entire experience. 

What I think is the coolest part about the toothbrush is the 3D mouth map. 

It guides you to any missed spots or problem areas — that means you’re covering 100% of your mouth, something that you’d never even know with a manual toothbrush. 

It comes with two brush heads, the Premium Plaque Control and Premium Gum Care Brush head. When needing replacement brush heads, you can pick them up on Philips.ca.

The DiamondClean Smart toothbrush gives you not one but four brushing modes to choose from, as well as three different intensity levels with each brush head. The brush heads are also created with RFID technology to automatically select the optimal mode and intensity for your own choppers. Choose your own option or the automated one, either way, get ready for that super clean feeling. 

Long story short, I’ll be tossing my old toothbrush in the trash. 

So far, I’m pretty into my new smart toothbrush. I hate going to the dentist because I’m always nervous about whether or not I brush my teeth well enough but now I’m actually excited to see if they’ll notice a difference. I’ve been giving my teeth that extra TLC with the Premium Plaque control brush head, which is supposed to remove 10x more plaque than a manual toothbrush. Being a total coffee addict, I’m excited to move to the whitening mode to help beat stains. 

Plus, the toothbrush comes with this chic charging glass to place right on your counter and a deluxe compact travel case with an attached charging cord so that you can take it on the go. I chose black, but it comes in white, pink and rose gold, too. I’d highly recommend it!

As much as we don’t want to admit it, the summer season is officially coming to a close. Even if you’re not going back to school, September can easily feel like January because it’s back to reality after the relaxation of the season. And let’s be real: getting back into your regular routine after the summer can be tough but there are plenty of products out there that are designed specifically to help you stay organized and slay your day. From tech and appliances, to skincare and planners, we’ve compiled a list to help you out.

A few weeks back, we were generously offered to experience Huawei’s P30 Pro Amber Sunrise Edition on a trip to Kitchener. After a quick stay at the beautiful Walper Hotel, Because it’s called the Amber Sunrise edition, the Hauwei fam planned for us to go up in a hot air balloon and take pictures of the sunrise. How cool is that? Not only was it such a fun experience, but the phone’s functionality and camera is seriously next level. It has all the functionality of a pro DSLR camera but without all the complicated buttons, lenses, or settings.

Here are 7 products to help you get back into your routine after summer!

Huawei P30 Pro Amber Sunrise Edition

If you’re looking to upgrade your tech, the Huawei P30 Pro Amber Sunrise Edition should definitely be on your radar. Between the amazing Leica Quad camera, easy-to-use technology, and slim design, it’s the perfect accessory to keep you on top of everything happening in your busy life. One thing that’s super cool about this phone (among many) is that you can use it with one hand as it has intelligent touch and an advanced in-screen fingerprint sensor swiftly unlocks it. This might not seem like a huge deal, but if you’ve struggled with bags and a coffee while trying to be on your phone? We have and trust us, this is a total lifesaver.

You’ve probably seen these backpacks around and for good reason. Not only are these Swedish-designed bags incredibly functional, but they’re super cute and can hold your many essentials that get you through the day. In addition to being totally water resistant, the bag has a two-way zip-around closure with a rain flap. Available in a bunch of different colours (seriously, how could we be expected to choose?!), this bag also has top handles so you can choose how you want to carry it if you want to give your back a little break.

The best part about these headphones is that they’re wireless so no more untangling wires — these just slip right over your ears!

Lagostina Glass 8 Cup Coffee Press

Let’s be honest — coffee truly saves lives. If you’re looking for an easy way to make your morning cup of Joe, Lagostina’s 8 Cup Press is the way to go. Not only is using a press like this more environmentally friendly, it’s almost stupid easy to use — simply add your ground coffee to the pot, pour hot (not boiling) water, and stir. Then, carefully insert the plunger into the pot, stopping just above the water and ground coffee (don’t press yet!), and let stand for a couple minutes. Then, you can press away and enjoy your hot cuppa and get ready to slay your day!
