I am used to sleeping late like 12 midnight or later. I got the bad habit when I was in college where our lives only begin at night especially during exams week. I still have the habit now that I am already a young professional. Sometimes, it’s inevitable that …

Due to the recent bunion removal and joint fusion I had on my foot, I have been ordered to wear an ankle height Aircast while venturing outside of my house in order to protect my foot.
This has not been the first time that I have had to wear …

When it comes to pain management, I will leave no stone unturned. I recently came across the Arthritis: A Natural Approach DVD, and knew I was onto something. Lately it has occurred to me that pills are often the first line of defense from pain.
What …

I have darkish brown hair (at the moment) and have been coloring my hair for years. One of the more recent colorings left me a bit disappointed. I used a rich brown color, but wanted it to be a bit warmer, with more red than it actually turned out. Since …

We found a Homedics EnviraScape Relaxation Fountain this past Black Friday. We spent the money we weren’t planning on spending to buy it, because we wanted it, a lot. It was in the same of a Lily pad, complete with a two tiered flower, a lily pad, and a …

Kamillosan M Spray is a mouth spray composed of chamomile extract, methyl salicylate, oils such as peppermint, sage, anise, dwarf pine-needle, bergamot and cineol. It also contains ethyl alcohol. It combines the anti-inflammatory property of chamomile and anti-bacterial effect of the essential oils. My doctor recommended this spray …

I suppose it serves me right to get a product that was not worth the money when I was planning to use it in a most unacceptable way. My hearing is fine. I wanted this product to spy on someone who I thought was telling lies about me behind …

My mouth is very sensitive to the ingredients in most mainstream mint flavored toothpastes. If I use it, it causes me to not brush long enough, and that is no good for my oral hygiene routine, so to remedy this situation, I use either children’s toothpastes with its mild fruit …

Last year I bought McDavid Waist Trimmer for around 2000 pesos via Amazon because I can’t find that particular product offline. So I bought it with my credit card and wore it for around 3 months. Here are my experiences.
This product is a waist trimmer that helps you lose …

I have seasonal allergies, and often get colds and flu in the winter, and my partner is asthmatic. In recent years I have developed an interest in Himalayan salt since finding out how much it helped my fibromyalgia symptoms when I used it in my bath water. Apparently, salt pipes …

Dollar General
One Dollar
I was in need of some shampoo the other week and decided to check out the Dollar General selection of shampoo. Like many Americans today I am trying to cut corners everywhere I can. I now purchase my shampoos and other toiletries at places …

I bought Seventh Generation Bathroom Tissue a few months ago, for a price of $52 online. The paper tissues weigh 20 pounds, come in 48 packs, with 500 sheets and which are made by Seventh Generation.
I have been looking for these tissues for a long time but …

I got into a silly argument over this product. I might not have tried it if not for the argument. When I was with friends at a mall, we came across this Canus line of bath products and one of my friends said she liked this one the best, …

After having a great experience with this brand in a shampoo that they make, I was less reluctant to try something new. My partner loves sandalwood. It has honestly never been one of my favorite scents. I like it in candles, or products like air fresheners, but I have …

I love to use a powder in the summer to help prevent wetness, rashes and chafing. In the past, I used talc based powders, but after learning the dangers of talc and its association with cancers and lung problems, I switched to the much safer corn starch powders.
Using …

I went through a whole period, years ago, in which I was feeling sick all the time. I think it had a lot to do with a pretty stressful situation in my life that had my immune system beaten down to a bloody pulp and I was either always …

When I was losing weight, I became concerned about the skin on my neck looking saggy. I am over forty, so my skin is not as resilient as it used to be, and I had a horrible fear of ending up with “turkey neck” after losing the weight I needed …

I have a problem with combination skin. In the winter it is dry, in the summer I have adult acne flare ups. So, my skin care regimen has to change often, depending on the season and my skin’s irritable disposition. Fibromyalgia probably contributes to this, although I can’t prove it.
…

As I was stocking my home gym as a new effort to stay fit, I shopped at Walmart for a lot of the equipment that I purchased. I found a great set of curl bars and dumbbell handles for weight lifting. It came as a set of three with …

I bought this trial sized Bliss soap as an impulse buy when I was shopping for some cosmetics. I have used a few Bliss products and my thoughts on them have been mixed, but I liked the fresh lemon-sage smell of this product, and it was not much to spend …

I ended up with a bottle of this product when someone with good intentions bought it for me, thinking they would save me some time spent with a callous file.
It’s the Pretty Feet and Hands effect, all renewed by Dr. Scholl’s. When I wrote a review for Pretty Feet …

Last year I found out I was pregnant and was looking for a Obgyn. I was looking through the yellow pages and saw a big ad from Crown Medical Group. So i called them up and made my first appointment with them. When I had went I was really …

I have always been a believer in natural medicines, even though my experiences have been mixed. I have fibromyalgia, and when several people on a fibromyalgia message board reported getting really good results with taking SAM-e, I wanted to give it a try too.
My symptoms over the last …

If there’s one thing that I can say for the Sunbeam Therabeads Cordless Heating Pad, it left me with such a memorable experience that I doubt I’ll ever forget. I don’t mean that in a positive sense, either. The regular price for this heating pad is seventeen dollars, but …

I purchased this Bodymax B15-GE1 exercise bike at the recommendation of a personal trainer friend who suggested I compliment my gym sessions with workouts at home. This particular bike had everything I was looking for, was in my price range and most importantly it was available for collection …

Due to long hours of sitting, I had developed an acute pain in my knees. Although I had been witnessing knee pain in the past- they were not of the severe category. But this time my knee pain just made me restless and I found it difficult to even …

This review is for yes, a sexual lubricant. The main reason why I feel it’s necessary to post this is because it’s very hard to find any resources for such online and want to provide you, the consumer with informed information about a seemingly ‘taboo’ product.
This review is specifically …

When I developed neuropathy type symptoms, there were a lot of different theories as to why. Having diabetes, possible lupus, and fibromyalgia, gave doctors lots of room for debate. Also, one bright doctor thought of something else—“ the possibility that the medication I was taking to reduce stomach acid production …

I have to admit that the reason I picked out the Crane Penguin Air Purifier was not due to the price, nor all the nice extra things it does or how many smells in the house it gets rid of….I bought it because my youngest daughter loves penguins. …

Colgate Total Plus Whitening is the very best toothpaste on the market, in my opinion. Dentists also seem to agree as it’s the number one recommended brand by dentists all over the country. I look forward to using it multiple times a day because it always leaves my mouth …

I freaking loved M1-bol by Fizogen because this product actually works and it works real good. I bought M1-bol at GNC for about $100 and I thought that this was way to high but I decided to give it a try because I read the bottle and it really …

Unfortunately, last year, I went through a terrible infection of thrush. It took 6 months and several visits to the clinic for check up’s until I got the infection cleared up. Sometimes, the infection re appears, very occasionally now I am pleased to say, and I am required to …

As a thank you token, I was given a small hand cream sample made by the Love and Toast company. I had heard of them, but never used any of their products. This was a hand cream, which came in a small tube. The scent was called Gin Blossom. …

I hate having to sacrifice on the quality of my families meal choices because I am too tired after work, or am limited in that I have to prepare something rather quickly to satisfy the hungry masses on the spot.
Knowing the high fat, salt, …

For some reason it does not matter which products I use on my feet, they always end up looking so dry and ashy looking. I try to soak my feet regularly and I also use a heel exfoliater, but the skin on my feet also remains dry and …

When I came across Moon Bird Studios on Etsy, I could not resist taking advantage of the shop’s 2 for 1 deal on cloth pads. Having paid over $14 CDN for just a single cloth pad, I was more than happy to pay $9.55 CDN (plus shipping) for two. …

I generally do not buy wet wipes even though one of my friends seems to have a pack of one in which ever bag she is carrying that day. Well last Tuesday my friend ran out of wet wipes while we were shopping and decided to buy two packs …

I have always been a big fan of this body oil. If you have not been to the body shop for massage oil, you should try it. The oil is scentless at first, until you select which unique scents you would like to add. There are …

Have you tried Inhalation Beads? Well if this sounds strange to you then I will not be surprised because I myself did not know about this Inhalation Beads until I read this item from Housekeeping Magazine. I thought it was just for decorative purposes but as I researched and …

This cleanser was given to me as a hand me down. A relative had some cosmetic surgery, and was required to use this cleanser instead of soap or cream cleansers she normally used. She did not like the feel of it because it doesn’t lather, so I got the …

One of the things that I like about this product …

In my family, right now, a relative has been hospitalized for diverticulitis, and is in acute pain. It is important to know the symptoms and what to NOT accept as a diagnosis! My relative had severe abdominal pain and back pain, but, a full time job, and it was …

For the past three or four nights I have woken up in the night with my own coughing. It is a very dry cough that has left my throat red, raw and swollen. I have been so stressed and busy lately that I have been ignoring this …

Of all the products I’ve tried to treat my sweaty and stinky feet, this has got to be one of my favorites. I’ve heard that tea tree oil can be used to treat a whole slew of things, but I never really anticipated the kind of use I would …

I was having a cough for almost two weeks then. I tried a lot of pharmaceutical drugs to help relieve my coughing. However, all of them only gave a momentary relief. For just a span of four hours, my coughing broke me again. I moved my faith into herbal …

I remember, those nights when I couldn’t sleep, watching infomercials for Hoodia as a weight loss supplement. I was intrigued, but never enough to go through the trouble of ordering something off the television. But, lo’ and behold, I actually found this product in a store, and it was …

When I was in my twenties, I had a urinary tract infection that lasted over eight months. In the end, I finally got to the appropriate type of doctor, and they found that the pain I was having was actually not from an infection, but from damage produced by the …

I spent a week out of town and ran out of shampoo on the second night. Wanting to save my money for my vacation, I decided to try a generic (store brand) of the shampoo I was using at the time, which was Pantene’s Pro V.
I found a comparable …

When it was time for me to pick out a new toothbrush I went to my local drugstore to see exactly what was available. I was accustom to using the toothbrushes that my dentists would give me after leaving their office and call me lazy, but I knew that …

Now before you think that I am someone who watches infomercials all night long and have nothing better to do than whip out a credit card and talk to some stranger with a southern accent at two in the morning to order whatever product is parading across the boob tube, …
