I have had fairly good experience with some Ponds products recently, …

I keep a few lip balms on hand at all times, because I have a problem with dry mouth and lips, especially in the winter but all year to some degree. I like to use natural lip balms because they do not have petrolatum, and the natural ingredients nourish my …

Listerine Tooth Defense Anti-cavity Rinse is not a product I recommend for a couple of reasons. The primary reason is it contains alcohol. Alcohol-based rinses cause unpleasant burning sensations when used. I dreaded using this rinse twice a day because of the discomfort, but I did so because of …

Humidifiers are one of those things I actually hate investing in because I have this horrible memory of having one as a child, which I still blame for a horrible bout of bronchitis I suffered when I was young. Whether or not this was true is neither here nor …

Savoy Antiseptic Burn Relief Spray can …

I like to use natural products on my face at times, and this one from Derma E seemed like a very appealing cross between natural and high-end effectiveness. I was attracted to the name “vanilla mousse” since that sounds delicious. Actually, it is a pump dispenser, and while it is …

If you open my purse you will not catch me without Clorets. Not because I’ve been addicted to this gum but simply because I think it has been the best peppermint gum ever. Clorets has actually surpassed the other brands because its performance is really superior to others. I …

The planet fitness in Leominster is a pretty crappy gym to go to and there are many better ones in the general area that I could have gone to. This gym really needs a pretty good facelift to make it a whole lot better. First off this Planet fitness …

The Gold’s gym in Chicopee is not to bad but it is way to small. I like Gold’s gym in Chicopee because the trainers are knowledgeable and know what they are doing but there are many downfalls to this gym.
The Gold’s gym in Chicopee is only good to go …

When I had my …

This soothing gel works pretty well, although it can’t quite take away all the discomfort and unsightliness of sunburned skin. This soothing gel is sold at the Dollar Tree for just one dollar, and in my eyes, that’s a good price for a six ounce bottle of this stuff. …

I’ve been using them on and off for several months now. …
