I'm so glad you mentioned that because SAME. I'll throw the cooling eye cups in when I need to, and then switch them out for the normal ones before bed.

Couldn't agree more, especially since I also have All Clad and Le Creuset!

But if you want to support the brand itself, look for the company’s link listed where applicable. Some may only use third-party vendors, just FYI.
