Why It’s Time to Ditch Your Old Toothbrush and Go Hybrid!
FOREO’s toothbrush obsession drove us to create our most sophisticated sonic model yet: the ISSA Hybrid. Turning conventional materials and approaches upside down, this is the toothbrush to make you care about toothbrushes!

The toothbrush is dead. Long live the toothbrush!
Question: shouldn’t we all care about toothbrushes a little bit more? After all, this is something we stick in our mouth not once, but TWICE a day. It’s the first line of defense against cavities, plaque, bad breath, and all kinds of other oral nasties. It’s sits in your bathroom within sniffing distance of your toilet, for goodness sake!
Meet ISSA Hybrid
FOREO’s toothbrush obsession drove us to create our most sophisticated sonic model yet: the ISSA Hybrid. Turning conventional materials and approaches upside down, this is the toothbrush to make you care about toothbrushes!
Not Such a Silicone Idea…
Setting ISSA Hybrid apart is a unique cross-design brush head combining durable PBT polymer and ultra-soft silicone. A band of polymer bristles offers intense cleaning power, while surrounding silicone gently massages the gums.
Why silicone? We’re glad you asked: not only is it completely waterproof, it’s also naturally antibacterial, making the ISSA range by far the most hygienic choice for your bathroom counter.
ISSA Hybrid Has Your Back Teeth
Inside the mouth, ISSA Hybrid’s silicone material presents yet more advantages still. Soft and non-erosive, it won’t wear down tooth enamel like conventional brushes. What’s more, its gentle touch means you can’t over-brush, which is a common cause of receding gums.
Combine that with 183 high-intensity pulsations per second (as opposed to old-fashioned – not to mention abrasive – rotations) and the ISSA Hybrid advantage becomes clear: this is a brush that cares for teeth not just better, but smarter.
Game-Changer, Deal-Breaker, Heart-Breaker
Still not persuaded to ditch your tired old toothbrush for ISSA Hybrid? Consider this: you’ve invited your crush to your place for a nightcap. They excuse themselves to use your bathroom. If they’re greeted by a stinky, paste-splattered brush, nylon bristles all splayed and sad, chances are you can kiss romance goodbye. But a sleek, chic ISSA Hybrid? Well, hello there, good-looking!

The Greats Bab V2. Ideal for Fall
A necessary, reasonably-price palette cleanser in today's more-is-more sneaker climate. (from GQ)
A necessary, reasonably-price palette cleanser in today's more-is-more sneaker climate.
In 2012, longtime sneaker industry heads Ryan Babenzien and Jon Buscemi decided to sell quality sneakers directly to consumers, lowering prices for customers and allowing the guys to compete with major sneaker brands right out of the gate. They called the brand Greats, set up shop in Brooklyn, and made their first sneaker—a clean white tennis style dubbed the "Royale"—that fit into just about every guy's closet. The fact that the Royales were $300 less than a pair of Common Projects and a little cooler than a pair of Stan Smiths made them an instant hit. Since then, the brand has expanded its offerings to include over 15 sneakers, and collaborations with the likes of Nick Wooster, Marshawn Lynch, and NYC skate-prep label Noah (which is helmed by Ryan's brother Brendon). But for all their bolder offerings, like metallic slip-on sneakers and camo chukka styles, it's one of their most versatile and simple shoes yet—the Bab V2—that you'll want to wear over and over this fall.
The Bab V2 has a lightweight upper that takes cues from popular modern running silhouettes, but its minimal styling makes it feel more like a sneaker to wear with jeans, not gym shorts. A thick sole provides the kind of comfort that guys on the move will dig, but where the Bab V2 really excels in its extra-wide mud guard—that piece running the length of the shoe, just above the sole—which will help you avoid wet socks during those inevitable fall rain storms. The Bab isn't waterproof, but on a day when you step in a shallow puddle on the way to work, you'll be glad you had 'em on your feet.
In a sneaker climate where $500 (or ever $800) intentionally ugly sneakers are blowing up, the Bab V2—minimal, modern, and practical—is a welcome palette cleanser. The pair is also affordable. As is the case with every sneaker in Greats' line-up, they deliver serious bang for your buck, providing a designed-in-Brooklyn silhouette you won't find anywhere else for just $79.

Sunrise is the only calendar app you'll need for Google Calendar, iCloud, Exchange. That's all well and good, but the interface is gorgeous and functions like you want it to. Quick Add Event just by typing "Lunch tomorrow at 9pm" (long-press on the +) (for Google Calendars only). I particularly like the faces included, such a simple yet appreciated feature.
Moving to a new calendar is a hassle, but Sunrise makes the transition effortless.
Moment Shows You How Addicted You Are To Your iPhone
Feel you're using your phone too much and not enjoying life? Jack White was astonished at how many people where on their phones during his concert. We have to agree.
Feel you're using your phone too much and not enjoying life? Jack White was astonished at how many people where on their phones during his concert. We have to agree.
Moment is an iOS app that automatically tracks how much you use your phone each day. If you’re using your phone too much, you can set daily limits on yourself and be notified when you go over. You can also set up occasional nudges as gentle taps on your shoulder saying “Hey, you’re halfway to your daily limit already and it’s only 11 AM.”
Once you set it up and as long as Moment is running in the background, you won’t ever have to open the app again. It will happily track your phone use in the background and give you a warning if you go over your daily limit.
Moment’s goal is to promote balance in your life. Some time on your phone, some time off of it enjoying your loving family and friends around you. Everyone has a different balance and Moment will help you find yours.
Humin

Humin is a new phone app that captures all of your contacts and remembers them in the way you naturally think. When you meet someone new, you can now capture the moment— not just their info. Humin remembers all of the meaningful context for every encounter.
The Humin iPhone app replaces the standard iOS phone app and uses your social networks (Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.) to auto-generate details for each contact (e.g., “You met Daisy Yates two years ago at Moka House”). Also lets you search contacts by relationship or status (“friends with...,” “has studied at...,” “has worked at...”), so you can remember even the most tenuous connections.

I've had the benefit of using it for 3 years and it's my go-to to-do list for almost everything. I use Carrot for work because I love her jokes, but Clear is all gesture based, in the cloud; where you could write your grocery list on your desktop then check your phone when at the shops. Don't let the clunkier to-do lists take up more of your time.
