Lockdown essentials

Priorities have shifted and so have the things we consider basics for our lifestyle. Here is a list of must-have items that will help you pull through in the coming months

The post-2020 world is a completely different one. Priorities have shifted and so have the things we consider basics for our lifestyle. Wondering how to pick must-have items that will help you pull through in the coming months? Here is a list of five lockdown essentials. Take a look and make a note for yourself and your family.

Lockdown non-negotiable: The face mask

The face mask is not only the most non-negotiable essential of our times but it is also the most life-saving item of the decade. Those who are serious about their own safety as well as of others around them are making sure to even double-mask in these troubled times. Be it cloth, surgical or N-95, take your pick and mask up before stepping outside.

Our pick: Protect yourself during the pandemic in these effective N-95 masks on flipkart.com and play it as safe as possible.

Anti-fall, anti-accidents, anti-fog

Want to prevent accidents and mishaps due to lenses that fog up easily? Especially while wearing a mask, eyeglasses tend to get foggy due to breath that gets redirected upwards. This pesky phenomenon also occurs while sipping hot beverages and during the monsoon season. Opt for this breakthrough innovation to avoid clouding your eyes and keep your vision crystal-clear.

Our pick: John Jacobs’ trendy eyewear range comes with anti-fog lenses. These are handy and practical for the lockdown phase and beyond.

A dynamic work-station: The portable lap desk

Let’s keep it real: WFH can be a drag. Without any colleagues and the chance to step out even if only to go to office, working from home can get you stuck in a rut. A great remedy for this is to get yourself a portable ergonomic lap desk that will allow you to work in different areas of your home with ease.

Our pick: Desk Talk makes these absolutely comfortable lap desks in ultra-utilitarian and sleek designs.

The ultimate essential: Hand sanitiser

This one is obvious but still doesn’t hurt for a mention. Get your lockdown game on-point with a bottle of hand-sanitiser. Keep bottles handy around your house, at your front door and carry one wherever you go. There is nothing more essential than this one. Isn’t it?

Our pick: Enriched with the natural goodness of aloe and lemon peel oil, Saniola’s Hand Sani Mist does the sanitising and the moisturising in one go.

WFH must-have: Blue-cut lenses

Spending all your time either working in front of a screen or binge-watching your favourite shows on OTT apps? Take a digital detox in glasses that feature blue-cut lenses to protect your eyes from harmful blue rays emitted by digital screens. This one is a must-have for the lockdown phase.

Our pick: John Jacobs provides striking Supreme Steel eyeglasses in three different packages — BLU Thin, BLU Essential and Zero Power BLU lenses. Give your eyes and your style a major upgrade.

Lockdown is surely a time to stick to the essentials. With these items in your kit, you are sure to be better prepared for the situations that might arise. Stay safe, protected and productive.
