I’ve had a few failed self-tanning experiences over the years that I’m embarassed to admit didn’t go as planned. When I was in high school, I made the mistake of using my mother’s self-tanning lotion that she used, but she also worked at a tanning salon and was very …

I like to use massages to help work out cramps and muscle spasms, and to treat the pain that comes with having fibromyalgia. Fortunately, I have a loving partner who will happily assist me by giving wonderful massages when I need them. This along with nightly hot baths has …

After trying some air activated hand warmers and absolutely loving them, I decided to look to see if there were any similar products for the feet. I went on a long ghost walk in Savannah in the winter, and the hand warmers saved my hands from freezing—“ but my …

I have always been a fan of Dove products, and one of the products I like to use sometimes in the winter is their sensitive skin formula bars. The last time I shopped at CVS, I noticed they had a house brand product that looked to be a copy …

Stretch marks are definitely alarming at my age. I began having stretch marks when I lost a great deal of weight. I may have reduced my size to a slender figure, but a few parts of my body retained the flabs. I didn’t have a toned …

I have used vitamin E oils in the past to help heal and reduce scars. Most of the time they were in the form of a thick heavy, sticky oil, or the oil straight from a vitamin E supplement capsule. I found the punctured capsules to be the …

I was told to take calcium for bone health and because my diet lacks it. I have also been told to take magnesium, because it is important for heart function and essential for muscles and nerves to work properly. In addition, I normally take a multivitamin and several supplement for …

I wear my hair in several different styles. One day I was lazy and did not blow dry my hair after washing it, and my partner absolutely loved the look of it after it had air dried. It was the sort of wet-perm look. I wanted to recreate …

When the news started coming out about the potential cancer-causing ingredients in antiperspirant deodorants, I was hesitant to start buying new deodorants without aluminum. I understood the health risks, but I am a very active person. I do martial arts at least three times a week, plus other activities …

Yes, that’s right - in spite of holding two brushes, the packet for this Tesco Value product does indeed use the singular of “toothbrush” on its label. Why that might be I have absolutely no idea, but it does make the pack look just that little bit strange. Still, …

I am diabetic, and one way to help manage the condition is to reduce your overall carbohydrate intake. I have been on the Atkin’s Diet, the South Beach Diet, Dr. Bernstien’s diet, and a few of my own making. Basically, I eat mostly protein and vegetables, and avoid the simple …

Ocean Saline nasal Spray works wonders on my dry, irritated sinus. Sometimes my allergies get so bad that I can’t breath through my nose. I love this product because it’s all natural and it doesn’t contain harsh drugs or medications. When my daughter was a baby, …

I have combination skin that is dryer in the winter months, and can sometimes get irritated to the point that I do not want to use fragrances on it. One year, I had been trying out some of the Grandpa’s soaps and found them charming as well as a very …

I didn’t think there would be such a drastic difference between hot/cold or heat wraps for the knee or wrist, but there definitely are, since I’ve tried out a few different ones, and some of them from the same company. I had recently sprained my knee walking to work …

In my line of work, I can’t be short on energy and I’m not one who’s crazy about using caffeine because of the negative side effects of it. I was looking for an alternative to caffeine pills in a drugstore the other day and I stumbled upon a product …

I have been using Fds feminine spray for many years, and I have always been extremely satisfied with the results. The spray is absolutely perfect for those long days (times where every female can be left feeling a little “unclean”). I always felt that if there was deodorant …

I am going on 4 years with Mirena. It’s an estrogen free intrauterine contraceptive. I can’t stress how good and effective this is. But I can also not stress enough how important it is to be in a monogamous realtionship while you are using this. At first it is …

As I have said before in past reviews, I am in love with this new brand of skin care that I discovered about a month ago when I decided to blow my hard earned tax money on some pampering action at my local Ulta shop. The brand is called Murad …

I have always heard about Listerine Mouthwash. Strangely enough the comments have always been mixed. One set thought the product burned like the bowels of hell, others thought it was excellent. As much as people complained about the pain though, the overall feedback was the product was excellent.
I had …

There have been adverts on television lately for Anadin Liquifast Capsules. These are a good idea as liquid gets into the system far quicker than waiting for a tablet to dissolve. These are —˜plastic’ type capsules in a lovely green colour, which contain the liquid medicine inside, …

I’ve tried a few colon cleanse products when I felt a bit clogged up, and I never liked how they turned out. Either I felt sick, or the product tasted horrible, or there were just too many steps involved. Since I had tried another product made by Frut A Vie, …

I consider The Classic Lactacyd Feminine Hygiene as the best feminine wash for me. I tried a lot of brands in the past. They were actually of good quality but I feel more secured with this product. When I was younger I thought that bar soaps or liquid soaps …

I never want to splurge so much on my female sanitary pads. In fact, the cheaper it is, the better it is for me. I would just normally use Modess or Kotex during my periods and never had any problems with these. One day, my mother bought a pack …

I did not actually own one of these, but used one regularly for several weeks while staying with a friend. My friend has COPD, and thought this might be beneficial for her breathing problems. I am diabetic and have fibromyalgia, and I am sure there must be some …

I was browsing Ebay for a good Creatine Supplement to enhance my workout and came across Body Natural’s Creatine Monohydrate.
What attracted me to this product was that it was cheap (less than $40 including postage) and that it was Nanorised. In theory, since its Nanorised it should have even …

I think the time of the month is the time that every woman dreads. It sometimes becomes a hindrance when you don’t have the right protection to fit your body. I’ve dwindled in both pads and tampons and have some that I like of each. Then there are those …

A couple years ago, I woke up one morning with a strong pain in my lower back, on the right side. I popped a few ibuprofen tablets, not thinking much about it. At first I thought I just slept funny or something, but about an hour later, instead of …

Of late, due to my late working hours, I suddenly noticed puffiness around my eye. The dark circles appeared more prominent and my eyes which were strained looked very tired and dull. This alarmed me greatly (I almost looked like someone out of the hospital). My face appeared …

There’s been a recent advisory in my town reinforcing the neighborhood to be vigilant against mosquitoes. In my particular side of the community, we have a neighbor next door whose son unfortunately passed away because of yellow fever. It was enough stimulus to drive us all manic …

I work in a retail establishment selling shoes, and have worked there for over a year now, and we are “encouraged” to wear the company’s shoes if possible and, I have to admit, these shoes are NOT comfortable by any stretch of the imagination. Might be good cheap shoes …

This review is for LifeSource UC-321 Precision Personal Health Scale. I have owned this scale for about 3 months now. I bought it because I wanted a very high precision home scale as I have begun a weight loss program and wanted to monitor it. I had a digital …

I was very inticed by this and wanted to try it to help me lose about 15 to 20 pounds, I’ve never been one to use diet supplements but because this one is FDA approved was why I finally gave in and purchased it. It’s pretty expensive for the …

This hair dryer/ styler seemed like the most perfect tool for me ever made. It is slender and easy to hold, uses ionic drying so that it dries hair faster and with less frizz, and it has both an air concentrator attachment and two brush curler attachments. In effect, …

I take a multivitamin for my general health, and I have tried a variety of types and brands. A relative was using this oxygenating vitamin drink instead of a vitamin pill, and I became interested in it when I smelled it in her drinking glass. It was the blackberry …

Frozen dinners by Smart Ones are inexpensive and, most importantly, taste great. I have tried just about every variety offered at the local grocer and haven’t been disappointed yet in the quality of food. My favorites are the Pepporoni Calzone and the Enchiladas. Each meal …

Since I had used some tomato products before and loved them, I thought this would be a good toner to try for my combination skin. It ended up not being quite what I needed—“ there were good points and bad ones. One thing that attracted me to the …

I have used Dove deodorant sticks in the past and I think they are great. I like the Secret lines of invisible deodorants, but the Dove brand seems to be really gentle on my skin and I like the last couple of fragrances I bought of theirs.
