I was over a friends house and I needed some body lotions for my dry itchy skin. My friend had some J.R. Watkins Lavender Hand & Body Lotion and I used it. I must say I fell in love with and went out and got some for myself. It …

I get urinary tract infections more often than most. I used to get one at least once a year. This would usually lead to blood in my urine and plenty of visits to the emergency room. I can usually tell when I’m starting to get a UTI but always …

As I have said in other reviews about diabetic supplies, I have two children who are type 1 diabetics. That pretty much makes us well versed in all different kinds of diabetic supplies, including blood glucose monitors.
My oldest daughter was given an Accu-Chek Aviva Blood Glucose …

Control solution is a must when using blood glucose monitors. Several companies will give it away for free if you are an owner of their monitor, such as the brand I new now, ReliOn. But, when I used One Touch Ultra blood glucose monitors, I had to …

As a regular user of naturally made body powder and a person interested in sensual things, this is a perfect product for me. I have used other flavors in this line, and only recently acquired the Raspberry Kiss as a gift (from someone who will reap its benefits!) This …

I found this little bottle of all in one wash at a health food store and bought it for an overnight trip I was taking. I wanted to carry very little with me, so the small size was perfect.
It fit easily into my overnight bag. When I …

When I was getting ready for a trip to visit a beachfront property for a weekend, I pulled out all my bathing suits to see which one would look the best. As it turns out they all looked awful—“ because I had bruised my leg the night before. It was …

Vaseline lotion is a brand I remember from my childhood. My grandparents used it exclusively, and I was always asking for some of the smooth yellow lotion for my own hands. The newer formula of the Intensive Care is called “total moisture” and is very similar to the one …

I tried these collagen masks on a whim. I had not spoken to anyone who had ever used one, but the idea was unique to me, so I gave it a shot, sight unseen.
I turned forty one this year and have become a little paranoid about my skin …

Although I know that tablet and capsule cold medications have the same ingredients as hot drink medications, there is something soothing and mentally helpful about drinking a warm cup of medicine. You can sort of imagine it making you feel better with its warmth. It’s completely psychological for sure, but …

I have been taking Vitamin C or Ascorbic Acid everyday to protect me from getting sick or to boost my immune system and I tried taking Time-cee first. Time-cee costs $0.06, a 500mg capsule, orange color, and bitter in taste. I observed in its capsule that it causes brownish discoloration …

I do get a good bit of fiber in my diet, being that I love grains and such, but I take supplements sometimes just to get a little more, or at the very least, all that I should be getting. I have tried Metamucil in the powdered form …

The box I bought contained six packages for six cups of tea. It is labeled as being good for nasal congestion, cough, sore throat, headache, body ache, fever and a pain reliever. It really does work. Both my Mother and I came down with the flu at the same time …

I am a forty one year old woman, but the majority of oral care products I use are made for kids. I have a sensitive mouth, so the high-powered mint toothpastes and nuclear burn mouthwashes actually cause me to be very uncomfortable and thus, when I use those, I don’t …

My son started football this year with his school, and he’s always coming home from practices looking and feeling a little beat up. At a practice a couple weeks ago, he ended up pulling a muscle in his leg that had him limping for three days, and we tried …

And I do mean these have everything you’ll need. The price was perfect for such a great first aid kit so I picked up without a moments hesitation. I spent around $30 on it I think but it has everything in it and the case itself is almost worth …

I suffer terrible bouts of foot cramps due to fibromyalgia, and one day a friend and fellow fibro sufferer came over and happily handed me a pair of these. She had already taken them out of the package, for some reason, and simply laid them down on the table and …

It may sound strange to see me writing as if I do not trust pregnancy tests. That COULD be, because, according to the pregnancy tests I had at doctor’s offices, in the late 60’s, told me I was not pregnant, each time that I WAS pregnant. There are 2 …

I’ve tried a homemade sugar scrub before, and it worked out pretty well, but I never thought of purchasing an actual product out there! Sometimes they say homemade is better, but I decided to try out Garnier’s Sugar Scrub because it seemed to have more benefits for my skin! …

My confidence to discontinue my previous toothpaste, of the desensitizing type, sprung from my envious feelings toward someone whose teeth were freshly bleached out of a dentist’s clinic, or could simply be the lack there of. I haven’t the time to visit a store and replenish some bare …

Although I have owned this product for several months now, I never realized how useful it is until fairly recently when I enrolled in an aerobics class at a local gym. I work a full time job and usually the only time that I can squeeze in for …

A very close friend of mine had purchased for herself a slew of Burt’s Bees products, and I knew they were expensive with a $20 price tage on a little container that came with a couple small containers of lotions and a lip balm. I couldn’t fathom why anyone …

There are times that money gets tight, especially when i’m waiting on payments from contracts. When I’m in a pench like this, I go with the Tena Ultra Briefs since they are less expensive than Tranquility ATN Diapers.
While Tranquility ATN Diapers is my preferred brand, this is the …
