I color my hair at home, and although I love to use the little tubes of conditioner that come with my color kits (I get my mom’s too, she doesn’t like them—“ can’t imagine why!) Sometimes I run out of those before the next coloring date.
To replace them has …

These days it seems like every brand of toothbrush is coming out with their own electric toothbrush to compete with the bigger brands that sell theirs anywhere from $15 to even $100. I’m not sure who in their right mind would spend $100 on a toothbrush, unless it’s made …

Of all the things I’ve spent my money on, as far as healthcare products go, this probably has to be the more expensive of those. Sure, there’s a lot in the bottle, and a little goes a long way, but $18 for an 8 ounce bottle of Betadine Antiseptic …

The Iron Gym Exercise Bar is basically a pull up bar that provides additional workouts as well. I bought it because it was at a very cheap price compared to the other pull up bars, and there was no drilling required. The way it is designed makes the bar …

I really love wearing shorts but I do not have the confidence to wear one because of the huge and dark scar on my left knee and I think that people are constantly looking at it and making fun of me because of it. I had it since I …

Percogesic is a pain reliever that has been around for many years and I have taken it before, several times. It works well—“ nothing phenomenal, but as good as most over the counter pain relievers. I learned something interesting about it recently though. I was talking to a friend …

Dove is one of my favorite companies. I use their hair products, soaps, body washes, deodorants, skin care, and I will try anything they come out with. I don’t normally buy aerosol hair sprays for myself. I prefer the non aerosol, I feel that they last longer and you …

I’m a firm believer in taking a multivitamin and mineral supplement daily. While I like to get mine in purer forms than a multivitamin, my kids are another story. While I would happily choke down a handful of supplements, with the kids I’m lucky if I can get them …

It was really earth friendly when I learned that this is made of natural ingredients. What I didn’t like was the smell it has. It doesn’t smell that bad, it just smelled too woodsy. I don’t mind the smell if this product is as effective as it claims to …

I am glad to finally be free of Bally Total Fitness. I have been locked into a three year contract with Bally’s. It is one of the worst fitness programs to join.
I never liked the Bally’s Total Fitness clubs because they seemed like a place where singles hang out …

I am normally very happy with products that I buy from Whole Foods. I had been taking gummy vitamins that I got from a local pharmacy, but when I saw Whole Foods had the 365 brand available, I thought they must be even better. They had a cute 1970’s …

Over the last month or so, I have been a regular at my dentist waiting room. I am sad to say that a lifelong love of candy and soda will do horrors to your pearly whites and will devastate not only your enjoyment of chewing foods that are harder than …

Working in a hospital makes me very prone to sickness and infections. Even if I wanted to do hand washing every now and then, often times it is not the real situation especially if we have many patients. Good thing that the hospital I am in recently provided us …

I’ve heard a lot about the stevia plant over the last year or so, and it’s becoming a big deal in the health food circuit from what I can tell. I’ve got a couple friends who actually grow it, but I don’t have that kind of patience or green …

The last time I bought a multi pack of anything was at a warehouse store. I normally get bored with a flavored product too quickly to keep using the same flavor for a long period of time. This definitely applies to lip balm. When I was shopping in a …
