I am not an avid fan of the Close Up toothpastes because I have been used to using Colgate instead. At one point I ran out of Colgate toothpaste and I decided to try out a small tube of Close Up’s new toothpaste which is their Fire-Freeze. I have …

Ever since we were kids, our mom always puts the Off lotion on us. Since we live in the Philippines, there are mosquitoes everywhere and this number doubles during the rainy season. And Dengue is always something we were always conscious of. I’ve had Dengue before and my mom …

As anyone that knows me well knows that I simple adore anything that the Bath & Body shop sponsors or any of their own lines they create. And one of the lines I really like is their True Blue Spa products. I was first introduced to this product line when …

A couple of years ago, I suffered an episode of sinus infection and inflammation that just did not want to go away. I took several different antibiotics, which would work, but then the problem would return within weeks. I started to suffer dizzy spells and was even given a CAT …

I’ve been using Clear Women Softcare Anti-Dandruff Shampoo for more than a year now not because I had dandruff before but because this shampoo brought back moisture and glow to my hair. After dyeing my hair, the damage was undeniably visible. I used to have long, straight black hair …

Dove Beauty Bar White worked for me for awhile, but then suddenly began drying out my skin after about a month of using it. I was not sure that it was the soap, so I continued using it for quite a long time because I had purchased a …

I remember the funny old irish Spring ads from the 1970’s with their tag line—“ “fresh and clean as a whistle.”
I used Irish Spring back then (I was a kid then!) and I occasionally buy it now just to relive the memory.
It is a nice, unique, fresh smelling soap. It …

I don’t normally buy toothpaste that sports the word “mint” but this was a notable exception. Strong mint flavors irritate my mouth and gums, so I normally use kid’s toothpaste, or natural brands, which often offer alternative flavors to mint. When I saw this toothpaste, I had to try it. …

I have been using Bath and Body Works Signature Collection Carried Away Body Lotion at work as hand lotion, on a daily basis. I just have the little 2 FL OZ bottle. I prefer to use body lotion on my hands over hand cream since I don’t …

If there’s one hand sanitizer that I wholly trust, it’s Purell. Like the most common antiseptic in the world, alcohol, I prefer gel sanitizers that have clinical formulas. Purell is most certainly a clinical sanitizer that’s well known among doctors and professionals working in hospitals, as well …

It is rather rare that I go to Bath and Body Works, and for a few different reasons. One, I only know of one location and I am hardly ever in that area. And two, everything in there is a bit expensive. They have all kinds of stuff like …

Adult gummy vitamins aren’t things that I would have ever imagined taking a couple of years ago but due to some life circumstances, it kind of called for it. When it comes to Omega 3 I have tried to capsules but some are difficult to swallow. I read reviews …

Now this was an interesting looking bandage, and I was absolutely positive it would work for me. Or rather, for my son. He had, a few years ago, fallen through some ice at the creek near our house and tripped and ended up slicing his ankle to the bone …

Sensitive teeth for me means drinking room temperature drinks, staying away from citric acid in many fruits and avoiding ice cream at all costs. Sensodyne Toothpaste is the one that everyone is familiar with for sensitive teeth, but Mentadent Fluoride Toothpaste is a far superior product.
My …

I didn’t necessarily relish the idea of heading back to the work place after a seven year haitus raising my kids, but it was a necessary evil that couldn’t be avoided for much longer. Ultimately, I’d have loved a desk job, answering phones and filing papers, which is pretty …

Growing up, I used to think that Neosporin was the be-all and end-all of antibiotic ointments. My mother always had a supply of it in her house and, as a result, I always keep a supply of it in my house. But, for the most part, I don’t always …

My husband and I have been trying to conceive a child for over a year. Naturally, at the end of each month, I would be dying to know if I was pregnant or not. I would start taking pregnancy tests from around cycle day 22 through the day I …

I’m an overly organized individual and some might even say that I’m a bit obsessive compulsive about it. I like to have all my ducks in a row, and that includes things like first aid kits! I used to buy pre-made first aid kits, but the minute you went …

I started using this vitamin when I was pregnant with my first child in 2007. At that time I don’t know which vitamin to take but one thing I was certain about is that I have to make sure that I have the proper nutrients to support …

What I love about the formulation of this …

I’m one of those people that mosquitoes just absolutely love. I could be in a huge group of people and I’d be the only one, at a camp out, who is going to get totally swarmed with mosquitoes. My husband and I are both into archery, and we go …

I have sciatica, that I’ve had for about a year now. Just recently, however, within the last three months, it’s begun getting progressively worse.
