Listerine Agent Cool Blue - Recalled Kid’s Dental Rinse
My husband is a sucker for anything new, improved or “as seen on TV”. It’s bad; he will not only watch infomercials, but actually start reaching for the phone until I slap him and he snaps back to reality. Commercials advertising new, gimmecky products are to my husband as …
The DivaCup (reusable menstrual cup)
While planning a month long vacation in the Caribbean, I had to accept reality - I was going to be on my period while on vacation. Immediately, I felt like those five days were ruined. But just by chance, I ended up hearing about the DivaCup, a product that …

Green Cross Isopropyl Alcohol with Moisturizer

Dexatrim Natural Caplets Extra Energy 30ct
Yeah, I’ll admit I’ve been a sucker for the get-thin-quick products in the past. When I was in my late teens or early twenties, and when the pressure to look your thinnest was at it’s highest, I definitely fell into the Dexatrim and Slimquick trap a time or two. …

Equate: Mint Flavor Anti-Cavity Fluoride Rinse

Germ-X works really well for me because it has …
