Opinion Page: Product Follow-Ups, No. VII

Every now and again, I like to follow-up on items that I wrote about previously.  Do I still love the purchase months later?  Did I re-buy when the bottle or jar was empty?  Is that piece of clothing still on heavy rotation?  Let’s talk.

I purchased Blueland’s hand soap in July, and initially, I liked the product.  I loved the idea of using small tablets and water from the tap to make hand soap instead of shipping full bottles.  But by the holidays, both dispensers had broken.  The pumps just weren’t up to the job.  I’ve been hunting for a soap dispenser that will use foaming tablets so I can use up the remaining product, but I haven’t found a durable one yet.

I posted about the Alo Yoga Airlift Legging back in October.  I love them for long walks, hikes, or  Peloton rides.  True to their description, they do fit like a second skin, lifting and shaping everything.  But the real reason I love them is because there is no chafing, which is really a gift.

The sizes run 00 to 14, and the size guide is accurate.  But be warned, these are not a relaxed, comfortable legging like a Lululemon Align.  These leggings fit snugly, not uncomfortably, but not relaxed and breezy.

This is the fourth time that I’ve written about Knix underwear.  I cannot stress this enough: I would never have made it through IVF without these.  Going to the office after ultrasound appointments, sneezing while using the progesterone suppositories, all of the weird, uncomfortable things that happen to the body, were made easier and more bearable thanks to these underwear.

If you are planning to do IVF, get a few pair.  If you have unpredictable periods, get a few pair.  If you have a teenage child, get these underwear.  At least twice a day, I was grateful for Knix. I would buy shares in this company if I could.

The Super Leakproof boy shorts and thongs are my favorite.  The high rise medium leakproof ones are good too.

Looking for an update on a specific product?  Leave the name in the comments and I’ll follow up in the coming weeks.
