Offline Influencer
One thing about me: I'm going to research the hell out of something before I buy it, use it, hire it, or go to it. There's no casually adding the first product that pops up on Amazon in this house. I need to search Wirecutter, deep dive on Reddit, check authorized resellers, and scour through recent reviews (not top—recent!) on absolutely everything before I add to cart. Now, you may be asking yourself, "Blythe, are you wildly insane? How much time are you spending on such things?" And I'd tell you, yes, and please don't worry about it. Just trust me when I say, these are the products I'd bring with me to a deserted island, assuming the island had basic plumbing, a refrigerator, and a Dyson hairdryer.
Some may call this influencing, and so would I. I just don’t have 10K followers or the energy to post on social media more than once a quarter. So Offline Influencer it is.
PS: I will be adding Amazon affiliate links because I have heard you can earn an extra $11/year. Let’s go, baby.

If you have sensitive skin:
This sunscreen will change your life. It’s literally the ONLY one I can use without breaking out in a rash for three days (sorry!).
This face sunscreen is also the best. I also buy the fancy serum option when I’m feeling special because there is nothing that feels as good on my skin.
I have this face wash and this moisturizer on constant rotation.
OH! And don’t forget this. “Blythe, your skin is so dewy. What do you do?!” It’s this stuff. And 80oz+ of water a day. You’re welcome.
If you have long hair:
I have tried countless drain hair catcher things over the years. This one blows all the others out of the water (no pun intended). The metal one only.
If you have pets:
If you don’t have this for pet hair yet, you need one like yesterday.
Don’t buy this water bowl, it got moldy in 24 hours. Buy this instead, and these filters.
If you have cats, this could change your life. I don’t make the rules. (Yes I do.)
If you don’t like walking on crumbs:
If you’ve talked to me since I purchased this vacuum, there’s a 100% chance I have brought up how incredible it is. I researched for 5 business days before making this purchase, and I don’t regret it at all.
If you have teeth you’d like to keep:
This floss is the best. Your dentist will agree. BTW you’re probably due for an appointment.
If you live in SoCal:
I hesitate to even bring this up, because it is my best kept secret. But if you’ve read this far, you deserve to hear about it. Next time you find yourself at your local farmer’s market, you need to get this kefir. I stock up on the chocolate one and eat it for dessert almost every night. It’s excellent with fruit or by the spoonful. It tastes so much better than any regular old chocolate, I promise.
