iRenew Bracelet Black/Silver (energy/balance aid)`
When my “Power Balance Bracelet” broke, I tried to find a replacement for it but was unable to find the same brand. I did find this though. I had been using the Power Balance to help with some dizziness I had several months back which was probably fibromyalgia related.

Clairol Loving Care Haircolor Auburn 080 1 application
This is a product that is now hard to find, since many stores have discontinued carrying the line. Loving Care is probably the most gentle temporary hair color there ever was. I used this product in auburn, as an experiment to see if I would like a redder sheen to …

Noxzema Deep Cleansing Cream Plus Moisturizers 12 oz
I have used the original Noxzema cream for many years. My mom used it when I was a kid, and I started trying it out in my teens. I took a vacation from it for a few years, but when I got older I realized how good my mom’s skin …
Sooth-Eze Toasty Honey Bear
I’ve always, ever since I was a little girl, had a hard time sleeping. I remember, when I was young, staying in bed for two or three hours while sleep eluded me, and this process has continued on over the years. I supposed you could call it “delayed sleep …

Quies Foam Earplugs
These can be lifesavers!
I first started using earplugs when I had a room-mate who did sometimes (in stressful college times) tend to scream at nigh. It was not this particular brand but I was introduced to the beauty of a quiet night.
These particular ones I like even more because …
Hydrite Tablet - Oral Rehydration Salts
Experiencing diarrhea is not easy especially if it is accompanied by stomach ache. I have experience this before and no Loperamide will be enough. I have used Lomotil, Diatabs and other tablets but they are not enough to make me feel better. I was almost nauseating and feeling weak …
Hairsil Accelerator Shampoo
My hair is something I hate. Most people who have thin hair would love to have hair like mine, but I can’t stand it. It’s so thick I can barely put it in a ponytail because they just don’t make them big and strong enough to hold it, and …
Close Up Crystal Frost Winter Blast
Close Up is a brand of toothpaste that I truly love ever since I became aware of my hygiene. This is for the reason that some of Close Up commercial done here in the Philippines is quite romantic and the musical background is memorable. While the Close-Up commercial is …
Vinegreat Pomegranate Vinegar

Plant Life Mountain Pine 100% Pure Herbal Soap 4 oz
I love the Plantlife line of cold processed soaps. They are all very gentle to the skin, lather great, and make for solid bars that last a long time. The scents are all very unique, but none are overpowering. This mountain pine scented soap uses natural essential oils for …

Oral B Pulsar Electric Toothbrush
I have tried many types of electric toothbrushe’s over the last four years, but Oral B Pulsar Electric Toothbrush is by far the best one I have ever used. I kept seeing this toothbrush advertised on television, and decided that price wise it was probably way above my budget. …
Vexum SL Double Chin Reducer
I have always had the problem of double chin ever since my childhood days. Although I tried various ways and means (massaging the chin and trying to do various chin exercises), I did not get much relief. The presence of double chin made a great difference in my physical …
Ideaworks Bath Step JR5539
I have one of those high-sided claw-foot tubs in my child’s bathroom, and I love it, but she has slipped a tome or two (without harm) trying to get in and out of it. She’s still young and it is a bit too tall for her to just …
Freestyle Freedom Blood Glucose Monitor System
The Freestyle Freedom is designed very sleek looking. It isn’t your typical Diabetes monitoring system. I like my Freestyle Freedom Monitor for several reasons.
The first reason is because it cuts down on how many times you have to stick yourself. It also allows you to stick yourself in different …
Futuro Deluxe Wrist Stabilizers
I have suffered from carpal tunnel syndrome for years so much so that it was suggested that I have surgery on both wrist. Not wanting surgery I did some research on other options that may be available that’s when I came across Futuro Deluxe Wrist Stabilizers and I’m so …
Crest 3D White Whitestrips Professional Effects
I didn’t think I’d ever want to try another dental whitening treatment after Crest Whitestrips Classic but I was mistaken. For years I have really loved the results I had gotten from my 14 day Classic kit. I got so used to wearing them that I didn’t …
Assured Sterile Gauze Pads
It is not often that I find a use for gauze around the house, but it does happen on occasion. My kids are always super busy running and playing, which leads to cuts, scrapes, and bruises on occasion. Whenever I am treating or cleaning a cut or scrape, I …
Fitness World manual magnetic Treadmill
I bought this ‘Fitness World’ manual magnetic Treadmill approximately 5 years ago.
My whole family uses this treadmill to remain active and energetic, apart from burning those unnecessary calories.
This treadmill does not have any electric motors to operate and hence no expenses upon me for the electricity charges. The platform …
Calorie Off Arm Massage Shaper
I bought Calorie Off Arm Massage Shaper for $10 online because I wanted to slim my arms which used to be pretty fat back then. I bought it after learning the good reviews I read on it online, and it became a pretty good buy, actually, because it lasted …

Runner will really love this wonderful Garmin Forerunner 305 Wrist-Mounted GPS. The Garmin Forerunner 305 Wrist-Mounted GPS looks sort of like a watchm, but it does so much mroe than any watch ever has.

Lipovitan Energy Drink
The only energy drink that I want is Lipovitan. Before, I tried lots and lots of energy drink while I was still in college during prelim weeks, those days that you need to catch up with your readings and finals week. I just can’t stand the taste of other …
Cedium Spray
One of the things I like about living in Brussels is that even though it is a city, there are numerous parks all over the place. The house where I live at the moment is very near to a vast and nice park. My kids often go there for …
Percocet
I am a brain cancer patient and I must admit that Percocet is a miracle drug. After undergoing chemotherapy I was place on Percocet at a level of ten mg 4 times a day and it did wonders for my pain, it virtually made all of my pain disappear. …
Proform CrossWalk Caliber Treadmill
Proform CrossWalk Caliber Treadmill is a nice, affordable (under $700) treadmill with many good features. The belt is 55 inches long and 18 inches wide. I personally prefer 20+ for width, but 18 is still okay. The machine has side handles to hold onto while you exercise, a set …
Eye Mo Eye Drops
Back in my college days, I tried using Eye Mo Eye Drops. I used it when my eyes were irritated and needed some lubrication. Anyway, this eye drops is available in 15 ml which I guess cost more than PhP100 (Philippine Peso) at that time or more than two …
Bally Total Fitness
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 …
Margaret Richard’s Beauty to the Bone Workout DVD
I am kind of new to the whole Body Electric workout scene. Once in a while I would catch a show on TV, and then one day I realized that I was enjoying them enough to seek out some of Margaret Richard’s other workout DVDs. There is …
Colgate A1500 Electric Toothbrush
I am fastidious about looking after my teeth so when I heard that Colgate had released their best ever electric toothbrush I had to buy one to see how it compared to my usual one (also Colgate, but an older model). The brush is supplied with two brush …
Pearl Drops Daily Whitening Toothpaste
First off, I always treat the bold claims of manufacturers with a healthy dose of cynicism. When treatments at your dentist involve chemical bleaching, or laser whitening (that’s practically science-fiction) how can a simple toothpaste make any difference? So I certainly didn’t buy this toothpaste because I want to …
Rapid White Tooth Whitener
I had high hopes for the Rapid White tooth whitener. It cost £30 and with its little hand held device which emits ultra violet light, it looked like a more professional option to the various toothpastes, gels and rinses I’ve tried in the past. So I paid the £30 …
Nutrilite Salmon Omega - 3 Soft Gel
I was advised to take Omega 3 supplement for long by my doctor after one abnormal ECG report. Only recently, I decided to take it. I did little bit of research about the available brands and selected Amway Nutrilite Salmon Omega 3. I have previously used Nutrilite Daily and Nutrilite …
USN Anabolic Nitro-x 615 g Berry Pre-Workout Energy Drink Powder
A friend of mine and I heard about a workout drink called “USN Anabolic Nitro-x 615 g Berry Pre-Workout Energy Drink Powder” that was apparently supposed to give you a lot of energy for your workout. I felt I really needed it especially since I’m constantly low on energy …
Kinoki Detox Foot Pads
I would like to start by stating that this product is not something I would have bought for myself in a million years and then some. I have a friend who is an insomniac and apparently watches every infomercial ever made—“ and believes them all. She is the one …
Mclaren Hospice Care
Last year my grandmother went to the emergency room and being it was a different hospital system than normal, they had none of her medical records. Because they had none of her records, several tests had to be run and the nurses, really didn’t listen to some of …
Transition Lenses
I travel a lot and often go to villages, where the bright sunshine makes me squint and gives me headache. I tried many sunglasses, but the light ones did not give enough protection while the dark ones were not comfortable while driving. My friend asked me to use Transition …
Modess Sanitary Napkins
Modess is my brand of choice when it come to sanitary napkins. I chose this over other brands, which are just as popular such as whisper and Kotex, probably also because I grew up seeing this in the house. This is what my mother used, as well as …
Bioelements Pumice Peel
I had never seen a scrub like this before. I heard this from a friend of mine and suggested that I should try it. I was skeptical because of the price for such a little jar. This costs me $50 and it’s the best 50 I ever spent on …
Nextep Contour 2 Walker
When I tore my tendon in my foot, I quickly realized my recovery was not going to be a quick one. I received this walking boot and was told to wear this twenty four seven. That mean, the only time I was allowed to take the walking boot off …
Nature’s Gate Vitamin E Oil
I found that Nature’s Gate Vitamin E Oil is a great product for those with dry skin or those looking to soften up rough skin.
