Philips Sonicare Electric Toothbrush

Burt’s Bee Acne Spot Treatment
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’m not sure with other VCO brands, but this one doesn’t quite work for me. Been taking it since last year then I stopped for a while because I didn’t feel any significant changes in 2 months, then this year I went back to VCO since it was told it’s …
Happee Toothpaste

I actually have many wait belts which lasted a long time. Others worked, others didn’t. Gold’s Gym Waist Trimmer Belt was around $20 when I bought it online, and I think it is a good product because it did what it claimed, and it was not hyped.
This product …

Six Star’s Rapid Lean fat burner is garbage! This is the crappiest fat burner on the market ever. You can usually find this supplement at Wal-Mart, which is where I bought it from.
