      When the three ladies were preparing homemade chocolate gifts for Chris in a previous video, she sent him some erotica chocolate, openly asking if he was a 'butt man' or a 'breasts man.' He got the butt and he complained he broke a tooth trying to bite into it.
      Sharla also sent him a chocolate gift and she was the only one who was complimented by Chris. Of course.

Japanese deodorant is pretty meh as they're mainly deodorant perhaps because Japanese don't sweat as much as foreigners and not as good compared to Australian Antiperspirant!

    The cold pillow would work better if you placed it inside an actual pillow.

It would keep you cool, but its more for hikes and outdoor activities where you would be sweating either way so you wouldn't worry about getting wet.

    At home I still go for the tired and true humidifier with ice cubes in it's bin of cold water.
    On the go, paper fan combined with a nice cold towel.
