With summer now underway, many are turning attention to some long overdue vacation time, sorely needed R&R, and a general reprieve (however slight) from the rigors and responsibilities of daily life. Even so, summer can still be a hectic time of balancing work hours with entertaining the kiddos, socializing with family and friends, and even treating yourself from time to time. So, any amount of help to enhance, ease, expedite and streamline our lives is a boon.Β  With this in mind, here are a few great solutions sure to spur satisfaction this summer.

RovR KeepR Cocktail Caddy/ Mobil Bar

For those summer sorΓ©es, the RovR KeepR is not only a great cocktail caddy or mobile bar but also serves as a modern-day version of a picnic basket. There is no limit to how you can organize your goodies for the beach, picnics, and other outings. Cups, utensils, plates, fruit, and even cheese and crackers find a nice home, safe in separate compartments that are easily accessible.

The KeepR carries like a pail and rests flat on surfaces, so it can be the center of attention and always remain open for service. This combination of utility and style has defined RovR’s mission, and the KeepR takes it to another level. This pairing is certainly unique in the cooler market. It’s designed for all those situations where you want to bring an assortment of food and drinks to the park or the waterfront but don’t need (or want to lug) a big cooler.

Db Element Rolltop Backpack

A functional and chic backpack, the Element is a 32L rolltop built to withstand any moisture the sky or sea throws your way. Your belongings will feel safer than ever whilst stored inside.

Made with nylon ripstop fabric and featuring quick-access pockets for your phone, wallet, and laptop, this weatherproof pack is the perfect companion for the workday, water, and backwoods. In fact, the waterproof ripstop fabric combined with brand new snap buckles and Hypalon accents makes this design the company’s sturdiest bag yet.

The large main pocket is coated in white fabric, so it’s easier to see your gear withinβ€”even at the bottomβ€”and it also includes smart internal pockets for easy organization. Don’t want to unroll the top? Just access items in the main compartment easily through the zipper on the side. The included laptop compartment also fits up to a 16-inch MacBook Pro.

SideTrak Attachable Second Laptop Monitor Screen

Even during the summer, many still need to work, which often involved a fair amount of screen time. The β€œnew normal” of working remotely can become easier and more structured thanks to SideTrak. The device is a 12.5-inch FHD IPS portable monitor. That securely attaches to the back of your laptop with device-safe metal plates.

The founders of Stand Steady, innovators of standing desks and ergonomic office products, designed SideTrak to bring ease and efficiency to people at work. By combining the portability of a laptop and the productivity of working on two screens. Taking only a matter of seconds to install, it’s a game-changer for working remotely. With monitors that swivel, slide, and stand-alone, there’s an option for every type of worker. Not only does SideTrak bring ease to work duties, but it also makes your presentations more engaging by mirroring your screen and sharing the content with an audience using SideTrak’s innovative 270Β° screen rotation capabilities.

Additionally, adding a second screen increases productivity by 20-30 percent, saving you more than eight hours each week! Being able to pick up your dual monitor and move it around without having to unplug your setup? Priceless.

IMILAB is a company that specializes in innovative smart home gadgets, now offers the EC4 Spotlight Battery Camera Set. Super easy and fast to install, this system is equipped with 2.5k crystal ultra-clear resolution.

The camera offers a vibrant four-megapixel live stream, making visual clarity affordable and achievable.

LED Light Therapy Mask V2Β 

The sun, sweat, and makeup can greatly undermine our skin, so here are a way to help put your best face forward: Peppy Co’s medical-grade LED Light Therapy Mask V2.Β 

Designed to offer an easy and safe solution in an effort to provide perfect skin, this mask harnesses three therapeutic lights for a clearer complexion in just 10 minutes a day.

This mask is yet another created by the Australian-developed lifestyle brand that offers easy, affordable, and non-invasive solutions for perfect skin. With blue light to banish bacteria, red light to prevent wrinkles, and yellow light to detoxify skin, the LED Light Therapy Mask V2 offers pro-level dermatologist LED light treatment all without having to step foot outside your home.

Blue light affects the oil glands and kills acne-causing bacteria beneath your skin. This helps combat the appearance of acne, makes your skin less oily, and promotes anti-inflammatory effects. Red light is absorbed by the outer layer of your skin and promotes the production of collagen and elastin fibers. This slows the signs of aging and revitalizes the appearance of your skin. Yellow light promotes the alternating function of cell oxygen, while also helping prevent pigmentation and sun damage.

This therapy mask even features double LED power as it features 64 bulbs compared to the traditional 32. It’s also easy to use with just three simple steps: Wash and dry the face; power on the mask via the included USB cord; select your treatment, place on the face and relax as it goes to work.
