Olbas Oil Therapeutic Body Rub for Colds

ADC Adsafe Pocket Resuscitator
While in school toying around with the idea to be a nurse, I had to use a variety of medical supplies and tools, especially when doing rescue training, and most of them have stuck to me and I felt like my own home medical first aid kit should not …
Arthritis- A Natural Approach DVD
When it comes to pain management, I will leave no stone unturned. I recently came across the Arthritis: A Natural Approach DVD, and knew I was onto something. Lately it has occurred to me that pills are often the first line of defense from pain.
What …
Arose Aromatic Herbal Pack
I was browsing though a local health and beauty shop when I saw on their new product section this Arose Aromatic Herbal Pack. The packaging is quite catchy so I stopped by and took a closer look.
Reading from the box’s label, it is said to relieve muscular tension and/ …
Sensodyne Pronamel Daily Mouthwash
One of the reasons I like using this Sensodyne Pronamel mouthwash is because it seems to be pretty powerful but at the same time it is not too harsh. Some mouthwashes have that —˜blowing your head off’ effect when my eyes start to water and I am in …
Oral B Triumph (Professional Care 9500) Electronic Toothbrush
With all of the fantastic gadgets and electronic products which I manage to get my hands on through work I find it rather strange that I am now writing my third toothbrush review! But what can I say; your teeth are important to you, right?
But I do have …
Nizoral Shampoo
My hairdresser sent me to the doctor to check on my scalp because of itching and noticeable thinning of hair. The doctor said I probably had a mild case of eczema on my scalp, and recommended I use the over the counter version of Nizoral A-D shampoo. Because I …
Eye Center South
Eye Center South is a local clinic serving those with issues of the eye. My first experience with the clinic came recently when I inadvertently poked myself in the eye with my glasses. The pain I felt was rather bad, so bad in fact that at first I couldn’t …
Coast Bar Soap Pacific Force fragrance
I was a loyal fan of Coast soap when it was popular many years ago. I remember the ads about it being “the eye-opener.” I loved its blue color, rich lather, and great cleaning ability. It was my favorite fragrance in the world. I even became very attached to …
Tylenol Extra Strength Rapid Release Gelcaps, 50-Count
I regularly take over the counter pain medications when necessary for menstrual cramps, headache or fibromyalgia pain. Sometimes I use an anti inflammatory type like ibuprofen, but at other times I prefer to spare my sensitive stomach and take Tylenol. The last time I had an accidental injury was when …
Weleda Rosemary Hair Oil
I’m a little hooked on the idea of using oil products for my hair. My hair can be oily and dry at the same time, and it’s very thick. Sometimes I can’t even run a comb through it without running into problems and without my head hurting as a …
Band-Aid Flexible Fabric Bandages
I decided to try Band-aid flexible fabric bandages because the plastic ones always seemed too difficult to work with, especially when they had to be placed on the fingers. Plastic band-aids are much too stiff and tend to get wadded up when you bend your fingers. I got band-aid …
Stress Away natural supplements
I may be a sucker (or at least went throug a period of being a sucker) for natural remedies and supplements, but who wouldn’t want to try a supplement that promised you’d be stress free? Ever since I started my new job in retail (when I’d been job-free for …
Coppertone Continuous Spray Dry Oil Sunscreen 10 spf
I have suspected lupus and I am really supposed to stay out of the sun, or if I am in it, I need to use a strong sunscreen. Therefore, I am probably the last person who should be using this product and reviewing it. It just so happens …
Lose Weight With the Six Week Body Makeover
I have bought everything out there for weight loss in the past 20 years and nothing comes close to the Six Week Body Makeover for successful weight loss. This program is no quick fix. It starts out with a free blueprint of your body type or metabolism (free …
Desert Essence Tea Tree Oil Toothpaste Mint 7 oz
I decided to try this Desert Essence toothpaste because I have used their tea tree oil and was very pleased with it. I was not sure what to expect with it containing the oil—“ I had not tasted what tea tree was supposed to taste like before. The smell …
Diprogenta Betamethasone + Gentamicin Ointment
It was one of those few unlucky days I had in my entire life… I have a very large pimple on my face, like a volcano about to erupt and explode its loaded content. As usual, it was very painful too. It was already giving me some …
Mavala Stop - Nail Biting Solution
I used to have a horrible habit of biting my nails. I would bite them so far down that they would bleed. I even bit the skin and cuticle around the nails. This caused my fingers to look horrible. I used this product to help …
Avon FootWorks
Just like my hands, I am taking extra care of my feet. I’m seeing to it that they are properly rested after a long day’s work.
To relieve them from stress, I massage my feet using Avon FootWorks rough skin remover cream. …
Retin-A 0.1% Gel
I absolutely love love love Retin-A! I’m a member of a number of skin care forums, and everyone is always raving about their results of Retin-A. At first, I thought that it was just an acne medication, but then I discovered it had another use too, and that was …
NatraBio Botanical Labs Iwise Plus Eye Drops
I had tried an Eyebright eye drop as recommended from a friend of mine, though it wasn’t the exact brand she had recommended to me that time, and ever since then, I’ve been sort of drawn to the idea of using homeopathic eye drops to treat my tired and …
Nature’s Bounty Vitamin E Supplements

Weleda Almond Soothing Cleansing Lotion 2.5 oz
I have combination skin. In the winter it is dry, and requires much gentler care, especially where cleansers are concerned. In the summer I can get away with using whatever kind of cleanser I want to, but in the winter it has to be something very mild, and often anything …
Lenscrafters
Lenscrafters has opened my eyes to seeing many things. I have loved Lenscrafters wide selection of frames and the fast turnaround for having our eyeglasses ready in less than an hour.
However, my severe astigmatism requires lenses that cannot be made at the Lenscrafters Store. It has to be sent …
Bally 5 Pound Hand Weights
I found these hand weights for very cheap at Marshalls and decided to pick them up because I loved the design of them and was in need of some heavier hand weights. These are not like the traditional dumbells, the design of them is much different. I’m not sure …
Aloe Propolis Creme
I recently suffered from first degree and second degree burns on my right arm and right thigh when I was frying some food. The medicine the doctor gave me was just an antibiotic really to help prevent infections. But the burns really hurt and I didn’t really think I …
Levels Watermelon Hand Sanitizer
There are so many different hand sanitizers out there that you may think that they are all the same and that they all work just as well. This is not true. There are hand sanitizers out there that claim to work better than they do. With the seasonal flu …
EZ Access Sof Sitz Inflatable Sitz Bath
When I suffered with a really bad episode of thrombosed hemorrhoids that eventually had to be lanced, I needed to use a sitz bath three times a day after the surgery. Note to anyone who is ever told they need a lancing procedure done—“ get a second opinion. Sometimes it …
Exergen Temporal Thermometer
I do not use the traditional mouth thermometers any more, and though I have an ear-reading thermometer, I purchased the Exergen Temporal Thermometer after I found out I could not use the ear thermometer on my child when she has an earache. The temporal thermometer can be used …
Rite Aid Antibacterial Cleansing Wipes, Grape Scented
I can honestly say that, before these Rite Aid Antibacterial Cleansing Wipes, I had never used a Grape Scented wipe before in my life, and didn’t even know they would or could come with a scent to begin with. I have kids, sure, and I can see how a …
Zadro Sunlight 365 l Portable Artificia Sunlight device

Bean Bath Beads Coconut Bath Oil Beans 50 ct
I have an interesting piece of art in my bathroom. Anyone who knows me will tell you that I am obsessed with bath products and take a hot bath every night. This is partly because I love taking a bath and using bath products, and partly to treat the symptoms …
Greenscape Organic Homemade Lettuce Pear and Lime Soap Bar 10.5 oz
I love homemade and natural soaps, and I have developed an interest in European bath products, so when I discovered the Greenscape products in a store in Marietta, GA I spent way more than I needed to. One of the wonderful soaps that I found was the Greenscape Organic lettuce, …
4 G vitamins
I tried and tested different medicines or shall I say beauty pill in the market, nothing reached my standards except for this one beauty pill 4G. It is a vitamin pill that you can take before bed time. I have tried this and still been using 4G and …
Tom’s of Maine Natural Baking Soda Mouthwash Peppermint 16 oz
I have a mouth that is sensitive to strong mint flavors, so finding a mouthwash that leaves my mouth feeling fresh but doesn’t burn it is sometimes a challenge. I had used several mainstream brands of alcohol-free mouthwash, and preferred them vastly to the alcohol brands, but I wanted to …
American Fare Regular Tampons Scented 20 Count
The last time I bought tampons from a Kmart store, I chose their own brand, American Fare. This was a fill-in purchase, as I really wanted the brand that was on sale at another store, but wouldn’t be able to get around to that store until the end …
Out of Africa Strawberry Shea Butter Lip Balm .25 oz
I get chapped and dry lips in the winter, and sometimes year round. I like to use premium products on my lips, for my own enjoyment and to pamper myself, but also to keep the skin on my lips in the best condition possible.
I had limited experience with …
Pantene Pro-V Nature Fusion Moisture Balance
I was at Costco the other day and saw this shampoo for $10.99 for a 40oz bottle. It also came with a sample 6.8 fl oz. conditioner bottle. I wanted to turn away and not buy it because I’m satisfied with my current shampoo but the bottle was so …
Curel Ultra Healing Lotion Intensive Moisture
My never ending quest to find the perfect lotion for my hands and elbows led me to Curel Ultra Healing Lotion Intensive Moisture. I purchased the Curel at the grocery store for $7.59 for a 20 oz. bottle. If it worked, it would be well worth the money spent. …
Aussie Ausome Volume Shampoo
I tried Aussie Ausome Volume Shampoo after my mother-in-law gave me a bottle of it. I figured it wouldn’t hurt to try it since it was free for me. Even though I didn’t buy the Aussie Shampoo, it can be purchased at Walmart for $5.97 for a 33.8 oz. …
Zum Tub Shea Butter Bath Salts Frankincense & Myrrh 12 oz

Nasathera Paracetamol + Phenylpropanolamine capsule
Whenever I have colds, allergic rhinitis and stuffy nose, I usually take Nasathera Paracetamol + Phenylpropanolamine capsule.
I was first introduced to this medication about more than 4 years ago by a medical representative, and when I tried using it once for my nasal stuffiness, I was able to prove …
Proform CrossWalk Caliber Treadmill
Proform CrossWalk Caliber Treadmill is a nice, affordable (under $700) treadmill with many good features. The belt is 55 inches long and 18 inches wide. I personally prefer 20+ for width, but 18 is still okay. The machine has side handles to hold onto while you exercise, a set …
Clorox Disinfecting Wipes
I will start off by saying that I simply adore this product. I have always believed and trusted the Clorox brand name ever since I was a kid because that was what my grandmother used around the house and also because it’s been around forever it seems like. I have …
Burts Bees Natural Toothpaste Multicare with Fluoride oz
I am a big fan of Burt’s Bees products, and I have used a few of their toothpastes. My mouth is very sensitive to strong mint flavors, so I usually end up using kid’s brands or alternative flavors that some natural toothpastes offer. This one was mint, but I made …
Crest Pro-Health Night Toothpaste
I am a victim of extremely sensitive teeth. The water tool they use at the hygienist is not supposed to irritate teeth but even that made my teeth feel like I was biting into a really cold piece of ice cream. It wasn’t cavities, just overly sensitive …
All About Hands Luxurious Hand Soap Avocado 5 oz
When I saw the soap called “All About Hands” I thought it was very clever. It was a very smooth, square bar with rounded corners, and the words All About Hands embossed onto the front. It was a greenish-clay color, and was sitting in a friend’s soap dish, having never …
