  *DISCLOSURE* Thank you to Therapedic for providing product samples in order to facilitate this post.  All thoughts are strictly my own. 

We recently got the chance to try out a set of uber comfy Whisper by Therapedic™ Cooling Foam Cluster Bed Pillows.

Now available exclusively at Big Lots! stores across the country, Whisper by Therapedic™ pillows use advanced sleep technology to provide comfortable, cooling sleep at affordable price point. These jumbo size (oversized standard) pillows are 20” x 28” and available for under $20.00! You really can't beat that!

The Whisper by Therapedic™ Cooling Foam Cluster Bed Pillow features a luxurious zippered cover that’s both refreshingly cool-to-the-touch and removable, for easy care and washing. 

It’s filled with dynamic foam clusters that offer customizable support for all sleep positions and fits standard/queen pillowcases.

It's super cushy, but holds up well under my head and the cover is instantly cooling to the touch and so super soft and smooth.

We are really enjoying our Whisper by Therapedic Cooling Foam Cluster Bed Pillows this Spring!  If you are looking for a comfortable pillow that is cooling and offers great support, check out these awesome pillows from Therapedic!

 *DISCLOSURE* Thank you to Larkly for providing product samples in order to facilitate this post.  All thoughts are strictly my own. 

Working hard to protect your skin’s most commonly missed areas from UVA/UVB rays, Larkly's all-natural, translucent SPF 30 formula will give you complete protection in one convenient, on-the-go application. It goes on easily with no mess and no greasy or chalky finish. Using natural sunblock ingredients zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, this innovative formula also includes a powerful trio of antioxidants including resveratrol, green tea and licorice root extracts, which help protect the skin from environmental damage.

The Larkly applicator includes our reef-safe, sustainable, mineral-based sunscreen that’s easy for you and your family to use, even on the go.

How to use

The self-dispensing (and refillable!) brush makes putting on sunscreen fun. Instead of struggling with hard-to-absorb lotions, this natural mineral powder goes directly on the skin with no mess. The extra soft, large brush feels incredible on the skin, and you’re never left with that sticky feeling from other traditional sunscreens. It’s easy, safe and effective.

Free of sulfates, phthalates, paragons, petrochemicals, mineral oil, silicone and talc, Larkly is the suncare we are reaching for this Spring!
