Felix’s Must-Have Everyday Products

Living in a digital age, it’s never been easier to discover and learn about amazing products online. In the past, you would have to walk in a store, check out the limited variety of products available in-store and rely on a salesperson’s opinion of that product you would like to purchase. In 2019, there are a number of ways to search for products and discover which ones are the best in terms of quality, price and durability. Amazon’s customer reviews and user-based product recommendations on Reddit are excellent ways to help guide you in making a purchase decision. As a conscious consumer, I often do tons of research about a product/service before purchasing it. Over the years, I have purchased most of my goods based on Reddit recommendations and their high ratings/reviews online. I would now like to share some of my favourite goods with you, so perhaps you will purchase them and get the chance to enjoy them as much as I do one day.


Adidas Ultra Boost 4.0 Running Shoes

Whether you're actually a runner or someone that enjoys long walks on the beach whilst looking fashionable, these are the shoes for you. Ultra Boosts are hands down the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever owned thanks to their “Boost technology”- a revolutionary sole that is made up of hundreds of nuggets of super-springy thermoplastic polyurethane (it feels like you’re walking on clouds). These shoes allow me to walk extremely long distances without feeling pain and are excellent for many occasions including filming, running and going out. Bonus: throw them in the wash and they'll look brand new every time... they’ve lasted me 2 years with minimal wear & tear. Purchase Link


Under Armour Eastman Tritan Bottle



If you know me, you’ll notice that I’m always carrying around my bottle. I make it a habit to carry it everywhere I go because it makes me drink a lot of water without even thinking about it. I love this bottle because it has a push-to-open button, meaning I can hold it, open it and drink from it with one hand, all in one quick motion. Also, it holds 750ml… fill it up 3 times in a day and you’ve already surpassed the recommended consumption of 2L of water per day. You're welcome. Purchase Link



Parker SRX Heavy Duty Straight Razor

Shaving… it’s one of those things we all have to do whether you love it or hate it. I used to shave with the standard Gillette 5-blade razors. However, I noticed that I couldn’t see where I was shaving when trying to shape my beard due to its flawed design and unnecessary extra blades. I then switched to using a straight razor (1 blade) as apparently, this is how we all used to shave before Gillette figured they could charge us more by adding extra blades. Straight razors allow you to use a new/sharp blade for every shave, thus reducing irritation you get with standard razors. Although there is a learning curve and a higher risk of cutting yourself with a straight razor, you’ll notice that with practice, you’ll get a shave that is significantly better.

Shure SE 215 Sound Isolating Earphones

As someone who is very passionate about music, having high-quality audio is crucial to be able to properly listen to tunes. I’ve tried several pairs of earphones/headphones and these have been my favourite ones thus far. They’re very comfortable, have amazing sound quality and have fantastic noise-cancellation. To give you an idea, these earphones are designed for live-performers, allowing them to focus on what they’re playing whilst being surrounded by tons of noise. They have balanced low, mid and high frequencies, making them very enjoyable to listen to.
