I can’t really say that this is a new product from Avon anymore. It has been out in the books for probably about 4 months and I got a little free sample of this when it came out. Although this has been promoted and featured a lot in the …

SO…I recently decided to use the Listerene PreBrush Whitening Rise and was greatly disapointed. It foams in your mouth as you move it around and caused me to want to gag! I didn’t expect it to feel like it was expanding in my mouth. I …

Before I started making my own soap I used a friend’s homemade soap and fell in love with it. Their soap was super expensive though and it just wasn’t large enough for everyday use. I wanted an all natural, olive oil based soap that would last a …
