I have always used Qtips for cleaning out my ears, I guess it is kind of an “age old tradition” for lack of a better term. I don’t believe I have ever known anyone who hasn’t used Qtips for this purpose.
Well the point …

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 …

I was given a tube of Ben Gay PM by a relative, because they did not like it. I don’t normally use the brand, because the strong wintergreen smell makes my eyes water. I was told I might like this one though, because the smell is much lighter.

Although there is a ton of other brand that made Cod Liver Oil, the brand that first comes to mind is Seven Seas. This brand has been around for ages and I remember my mom giving it to us when we were kids. Well, since then I …

I’m just going to start off saying that, for health and sanitary reasons, this product is incredibly valuable to me. My husband and I like to camp. He’s more the rugged camper, and I’m more the where-are-the-flushable-toilets kind of camper, but I still enjoy my time outdoors. We are …

This is a medicated shampoo for dandruff, Psoriasis, and Seborrheic Dermatitis, but just because it’s medicated doesn’t mean that it can’t be found on the shelves at drug stores like Walgreens, I wish though I hadn’t found it at Walgreens, even though it was on sale eight dollars. I …

I don’t like tampons very much, so I buy Maxi pads. I haven’t seen many reviews for Maxi pads or tampons, which is frustrating, because they are products that almost every woman must use on a monthly basis. Why do we just blindly buy
whatever is on the shelf, or …

I have fibromyalgia and sometimes lower back pain. In the past, I have used pain patches that warm up, and also patches that provide a counter-irritant effect. The counter-irritant products contain menthol and various other substances that impart a warm or cold effect to the area of skin they …

Should someone ask me what my most hidden insecurity is, I guess my teeth could very well be a valid answer. Teeth whitening may be a costly privilege accessible only at a dentist’s chair. I hated my personal orthodontist’s forceful attempts at coaxing me to avail his …
