   <media:description>Try this double sided bath brush - it might meet your expectations too!

I recently picked up this shower brush and I got to be honest, I'm a little disappointed that it started falling apart. I was losing some of the bristles even though it did feel good. So, I replaced it with this one. This one. And actually, it's two-sided. So, one side is for the dry brushing. Y'all know I love my dry brushing. And the other side is just a regular shower brush. But I love how it has these extra grips on the handle that will make it easier for me to when I'm brushing. You know, your hands are all soapy and everything. Anyway, I'm looking forward to this one. So, I'll let you know if it meets my expectations. 

Time for a followup. I promised I would let you know if this double-sided bath brush met with my expectations. So, let's take a look. It's nice and soft, gets really foamy, and it cleans really well. I love the long handle that I can reach my feet, all the areas of my back that I seem to never be able to get without a bath brush. Yes, it met my expectations.</media:description>

Did you know that TikTok has a feature that works like Amazon Lens? I'm assuming you know what Amazon Lens is but if not, it's a feature built into product search that let's you search for matching products with your phone's camera.

   <media:description>If y'all are hot sleepers try this cooling blanket to help you get more sleep during the night.

This is a lightweight reversible throw for warmer nights and cozy couch time.

Quite a few times this cooling blanket got compliments like, "Oh my gosh, I didn't even know they had blankets like this." Yeah, it keeps you cool if you're a hot sleeper. It just covers you and gives you that little hug that you're used to with having a blanket. But even on the hot nights or the nights when your body temperature fluctuates cuz that's going to happen to us at certain stages of life. And this like right now I just feel like oh this is so cool. I could turn the air conditioning down a notch or two.</media:description>

My friends at Moss and Stone sent over a three piece glass casserole set with lids. This is great.

Very well made. So pretty. What's really cool about this set is that it's oven safe, microwave safe, freezer safe, and dishwasher safe. It's a great set that your whole family will enjoy.</media:description>

   <media:description>In this video I will demo how to use the Amazon and Canva Integration for Shoppable Videos

Transcript:
There is a lovely Miss Nicole Purvy and I'm going to use her in this demonstration of how to use the Canva and Amazon integration making a video. So, I took this video of her. She was in town for the Roots Picnic and as always she had on this little adorable little outfit. And so what you can do in Canva, which I've already done ahead of time because it takes a while. So is remove the background. So now here's the video again with the background removed. 
And so what I can also do now is add a different background. Okay, maybe that doesn't look all that realistic, but I just wanted to do this is just a demonstration for me to show you how to use this feature. Okay. So, the the boots are not on Amazon. So, I tried to keep the boots out of it. And so, yeah, there was another one. I tried this one and tried to make it okay like she's in the park. I'm going to use this one. 

Next, what I want to do is go to the app section and I already have the Amazon app as one of my apps and I'm going to do Amazon Creators app. All right. So now she bought this little bodysuit thing as well as this little fringe belt thing. Oh, to be young again. So I already had the as for that little fringe belt thing. So now when I click on this, see how it asks me tag and add to design or tag only? Well, I wanted to add to the design, right? And this is new. This part is new, guys. So, I'll just say tag only for the little bodysuit.

Oh, to be young again. And once again, tag only. All right. Now, I can export on Amazon. I didn't yet change this to say MP4 video. You see that? So now I'm going to export. Okay. While that is uploading and uh we'll we'll go back and check on it. But what I want to show you here is to let the AI generate the title.

I'm not going to fuss with all these other tools that we have to tell me all. So there you have it, a demo of using the Canva and Amazon integration app in order to create a video. You can remove the background from your video, replace it, do a lot of other things that and depending upon what your design is and how it's all set up.

I think it's time for you to give your eyes a break. These blue light blocking glasses are perfect solution for those who suffer from eye strain like me because you've been sitting at a computer for hours at a time. These were sent out to me for me to check out and I absolutely love them. See how lightweight they are? 

The metal arms and the frames are absolutely gorgeous. Tap the shopping sticker if you're watching this on your phone. And if you're watching on your TV, Mhm. there's a QR code you can scan. You can probably get more work done now, too, since you can stop worrying about eye strain and focus on the task at hand. Let me know what you think.

   <media:description>The burgeoning creator economy comes a dark side—creator burnout. When we talk about someone suffering from burnout, we have to understand that Creator burnout is unique. But as a content creator there is no downtime and with all the Scheduling tools we have at our disposal. There really isn’t any excuse for not being visible online.

   <media:description>Have you ever done a live stream before. Here are some tips!

AI generated summary:

Encouragement and Benefits: Ms. Ileane, who started live streaming in 2012, encourages others to go live. A major benefit is the real-time interaction and feedback with the audience. In an age of AI and deep fakes, going live serves as a way for people to know "for sure that you're real". Fears of messing up or being laughed at are dismissed, and the technology is described as "super duper easy".
Basic Setup: To go live, tap the plus sign, swipe over to the "live" side, fill out a title, and update the cover photo. You can stream from a desktop, a camera, or a phone positioned at a good angle.
Pre-Live Preparation:
Caretaking: Ensure babies or small children are taken care of (e.g., fed), and pets (especially dogs) are walked and fed.
Personal Needs: Take a "bio break" and always have water in case you get a frog in your throat or get choked up.
Lighting Tips: Good lighting is essential for both live streaming and videos.
Avoid Backlight: Never have the sun shining directly behind you and into the camera.
Use External Light: Do not depend solely on natural light from a window for longer streams, as the lighting can change unexpectedly due to weather, clouds, or nighttime.
Positioning: Ensure that any artificial light (like a room light, an Elgato key light, or a desk lamp) is on you, and not positioned behind you, shining into the audience's eyes.</media:description>
