Find your color palette<\/strong>
\nI\u2019ve learned through trial and error that dark green washes me out and makes me look sickly. But after uploading a selfie to\u00a0Colorwise.me<\/a>, I was able to play around with seasonal color pallet wheels to discover the most flattering colors for my skin tone, hair color and eye color. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n

Better lightning cables<\/strong>
\nAfter reading my recommendation for getting cheap 3rd party Lightning cables instead of Apple\u2019s shoddy ones, Martim Weinstein said \u201cbuy some good cables instead\u201d He recommends the\u00a0Belkin Mixit DuraTek Lightning cables<\/a>: \u201cHave a pair of these on my car and another on my motorbike. The ones in the car constantly get stepped on by wet and dry shoes, charge my kids iPads and iPhones, charges guest iPhones, are left out and about with zero looking after. They\u2019ve lasted 2 years so far with zero sign of wear. The one on the motorbike is in rain, blazing sun and constantly exposed to the all elements with zero signs of wear. It\u2019s on there almost a year and works just like it did on day one. I\u2019m never buying another Apple cable if I can help it.\u201d \u2014 MF<\/p>\n

Special deal on The Magnet newsletter<\/strong>
\nI launched my subscriber-supported newsletter,\u00a0The Magnet<\/em>, in August of this year, and I\u2019ve been amazed by the response so far. Until December 31, I\u2019m offering subscriptions for\u00a0$25 a year forever<\/a>. That\u2019s 50% off the regular subscription price, and you\u2019ll get the same deal every year you resubscribe. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n

Easy Amazon returns<\/strong>
\nAmazon has an insanely good return system. You can return most items (under 50 pounds) you bought on Amazon by simply bringing the item alone \u2014 without a box, without a label, without a print out \u2014 to a local UPS pickup counter, and they handle the rest. All you need is an Amazon supplied QR code on your phone. To get the code, look up the item on your orders page and when you ask for a return; returning it \u201cnaked\u201d should be an option. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n

Question your tea spoons<\/strong>
\nIllustrator\u00a0Kim Lam<\/a>\u00a0shared a phrase worth knowing in\u00a0Dense Discovery\u00a0<\/a>that deserves to be reshared. \u201cQuestion your tea spoons\u201d is an expression coined by\u00a0french writer Georges Perec<\/a>\u00a0that challenges you to question the habitual and to give \u201ctongues\u201d to the ordinary things. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n
