I use this stuff and LOVE IT. The product description compares the feeling of using this to the minty feeling of brushing your teeth... and that's right!

Promising review: "This pad is exactly what I needed. I have a memory foam hybrid mattress with a waterproof protector. The mattress felt a little hard to the touch and we were getting too hot so I started looking for a cooling option. This topper is nicely padded while retaining the support of the mattress. It has solved the heat issue of the memory foam and protector and my bed feels luxurious. I’m very happy with this purchase and it was an affordable solution." —niftyness

Promising review: "This is our first foam mattress and we are extremely pleased. Coming from a innerspring mattress it took a little getting used to but nothing bad. I do sleep HOT and have had no problems with heat build up. Although it is winter right now. Mattress is firm. We bought a quilted topper here at Amazon that I think helps out a lot. After two weeks, my back feels better and I sleep more soundly. We are going to purchase these for the kids too." —jerryb

Promising review: "This is worth every penny. I've had such a hard time sleeping because I am so HOT ALL THE TIME. I live in Colorado, and even sleep with the windows open when it's freezing outside, but I would still wake up because of being hot. This has completely solved the problem. You can turn it low, where you can barely feel it, but it still keeps you cool, to high, where it actually blows the sheets up! I do have to wear socks when it's turned up, or else my feet get a little cold, but it keeps the rest of me cool. It sits at the foot of the bed, and I think I'll try to move it to the side for more even cooling." —M.I. Silk

Promising review: "O’Keeffe’s is a name I trust, and the Lip Repair Balm is amazing. During the cold winter months, my lips were dry and chapped to the point of it being quite painful. A friend recommended this lip balm and I’ve been a devoted user ever since. I keep one in my handbag, one in my car, and one in my makeup bag. The cooling aspect brings instant, welcomed relief and it stays on for quite some time. No need to keep reapplying like I needed to do with other brands. This is one of those must have... never be without products. In fact, their foot cream and hand cream are absolute must haves as well." —Dale D. Mclaughlin

Promising review: "I use this whenever I feel tired, and always after I’ve cleansed my face. I use rubbing alcohol to clean it after use and then put it back in the freezer in its own ziplock. I notice it’s helped with the redness in my face and it also helped when I’ve had migraines. It starts behind my eye so I roll it over whichever side of my head is in pain and it seems to help." —maihiro

Promising review: "Great buy! I have done a lot yard work and recently had to break down a huge mount of dirt and rake grooves in it to plant grass seed. I so happened to pick one of the hottest days to do it. But this towel did the trick! It kept me cool enough to complete the task. I did have to go inside to get it cool again, but it took no time to do so." —Anna DePinto

Promising review: "I mean, it's great and does what it needs to do. I do love that it unfolds, so I can take off the fan and fit it in my bag real easy. Nice little breeze, sometimes it's just enough of what I need. I plug it in with my phone case on and it fits right in, isn't too big or anything. But a case any thicket than mine would push it out." —Professor Shyguy

Promising review: "I couldn't say enough about this thingy! It saved our kid from a heat stroke this past August (2017) in Naples area Italy. Do you know how hot southern Italy was this August? HOOOT! Like Leonardo DiCaprio HOT! Anyways... It has a strong motor and a pretty decent battery life! We even used it as a cooling fan when sleeping at night, attach right to the headboard, as one of the hottest region in Italy hardly has any A/C when doing air Bnb. One of the best travel expenses EVER! And yes, my husband looked like a terminator with the fan attached to our baby carrier, while walking around in Positano. :D" —TJ

Promising review: "We have a golden retriever and he LOVES his cool pad. Won't even let us finish putting it down before he's trying to get on it. It's been a life saver this summer. He has hip displaisia and arthritis, and has almost completely stopped limping. We no longer need to give him pain meds. He also gets really bad hot spots in the the summer and so far this summer, NONE! We put it in the fridge to get it colder. It lasts about two hours. We lay it down right before bed so he can sleep more comfortable." —Britni Rosenbauer

Promising review: "Great product. It keeps you from peeling, and it helps you recover after a long day of sun. Sometimes I even use it as a moisturizer before bed because I tan often. It keeps my skin from getting dry, and is a much more effective way to keep your skin hydrated than lotion. Oily at first, but it soaks in." —NOLA Josh

Promising review: "This morning, I was volunteered to work a little photo shoot on a boat. It's 99* outside. The humidity is awful. Well, I sprayed my UD setting spray over my carefully done makeup. Two hours of sun (and sweat) later, my contouring and eye makeup is still at 100%! I'm now a believer!" —ashdee

Promising review: "Great product for anyone that works outdoors in the summer. My hubby works outside as a postman and this product definitely helps keep him stay cool! He wets it down and puts it in the freezer. He carries it in his lunch box at work and when it starts getting hot, its ready to use and helps him finish out the day a lot cooler! And it's washable (we don't put in the dryer), which is a BIG plus!!" —Melissa

Promising review: "I'm 61 years old and have suffered for years from severe head sweating. I talked to several of my doctors who basically said, 'Get used to it, some people just sweat a lot.' When asked, I would tell people I don't have hot flashes, just one long flash that started 10 years ago and hasn't stopped. I was hot all the time, sweating no matter what temperature, what time of year, working in the garden or sitting watching TV. I have a box specifically for 'sweat rags' since I was going through way too many paper towels. And then I did some extensive researching and came across this product on Amazon. Staying Cool is a miracle. It advised to give from 30 days to three months to see a difference, but had so many good reviews I went ahead and ordered. Within two weeks of starting, the sweating has stopped. Stopped!! I can't believe it. I feel like a new person! No more rags and no breakout sweats in the middle of the grocery store. If any can relate, you know how embarrassing it is. I LOVE THIS PRODUCT. I've already signed up for regular shipments. The product is a godsend!!!" —Annamarie Gibbas
