I awoke this morning with severe lower back pain. As much as I hate to ‘pop’ pills, I knew I had to relieve my discomfort. I reached for my bottle of Aleve caplets. I can happily say I am now totally pain free after taking 2 …

I’m usually skeptical about products that claim to increase my fitness level or augment my physique (spam emails for breast enlargement, anyone?) so I was initially hesitant to lay out the cash for my spiffy new Avia i-Shapes.
It was the best money I’ve spent in a …

Because of the way my body works, I am an exclusive tampon user. I don’t use pads, because they never seem to give me the leak protection I need. My favorite tampons to use have always been Playtex gentle glide. I’ve always enjoyed them because of how easy they …

I was raised in a household that never skips breakfast. Much more, we eat heavy on the first meal of the day. Most of the time, my grandmother will fill the table with fried rice, fried eggs, sausages, bananas and a freshly brewed coffee. When I got married I …

I used Astring-O-Sol Concentrated Mouthwash/Gargle for long years. I started using this way back when I was still teenager and kept using it till I got married. I loved its refreshing taste and even more when it made some good improvements on its product. The latest one Astring-o-sol …

I have heard about the health benefits of apple cider vinegar consistently for years. While other nutritional fads and supplement du jour products come and go, people still believe in apple cider vinegar. I have tried to take it straight out of the bottle. It’s a challenge to the …

I had these little rough dry itchy flaky patches of skin all over my body due to my eczema until I started using the Shea Natural Original Whipped Shea Butter. I love this shea butter skin care product because it is only shea butter and nothing else. I also …

If you are troubled by extreme joint or back problems, you know that the first thing in your mind is to find whatever you can to ease the pain. My desire is to primarily utilize natural remedies, as I am always concerned that ibuprofen or Tylenol have way …

I’ve had skin care issues all my life and, unfortunately, sometimes its less a matter of treating it and more a matter of just dealing with it. Though, as I’ve gotten older, it’s hardly as severe as it used to be in my youth, it’s still an embarassing problem, …

Even though I purchased this product at a yard sale last year, I never really felt motivated to use it until fairly recently. Several years ago I had experienced my biggest success pertaining to losing weight through maintaining a proper diet and exercising. At the time, I …

I am allergic to …

I’ve bought these eye drops a few times, but only as a last resort when I can’t find my usual brand. They are the same size as other eye drop brands, but I think the bottle is an awkward shape and a little harder to hold. This isn’t good …

I must say that this product is expensive for just a 2 oz jar. The jar itself is pretty attractive actually. Little did I know what lies inside it. The first thing I noticed was the horrible smell. It was ridiculous. I bought this after reading so many good …

In an attempt to rid my backpack of the controversial DEET-based bug dopes I’ve accumulated over the years, I purchased a 1.5 ounce stick of Badger’s Anti-Bug Balm at a local outdoor store before hitting the trails in the Catskill region of New York last week. I’ve enjoyed Badger …

I hate that I even have to bring this up, but it’s unavoidable if I want to tell you about my experience with the product Home Health Antifungal Lotion. I swear I’ve never had any kind of foot fungus to speak of, but about three years ago, I started …

After using a few hemp based products, I became a fan of them. When I came across this hemp lotion, it looked like a great deal. It was not expensive at all, and included shea butter, cocoa butter, and hemp seed. As well as being a hand moisturizer, it also …

Today I intend to buy shampoo at the supermarket for a little hair fall out. I myself do not know if I did not fit with existing water in Malaysia or incompatible with the current disposable shampoo.After I finished working, I take time to go to a drugstore to …

I actually received this from a friend and I’m so glad I didn’t buy this when I came across it. The bottle does look nice though, I must give credit for that. And for everything else, it could be better, a lot better I mean. This toner isn’t cheap …

This is a great toner for sensitive skin. That’s a bonus for me since my skin is on the side of sensitive. I bought this for about $12 and I’m glad I did. I wouldn’t say this is the best product invented. It just got the job done that’s …

The Nashoba valley fitness center is a far cry from actually being a fitness center. This is yet another gym that should not be considered gym. The Nashoba valley health fitness center should not be allowed to use the title fitness center in their business name at all!
Nashoba valley …

Once in awhile I try out a product even though the skeptic alarm is going off full blast in my head. One such product was discovered in an Avon brochure, and was called Bust Sculpting cream. My skeptical mind told me that I would have heard of it …
