I have had very mixed experiences with using homeopathic remedies. To be honest, most of the time they don’t work for me. Before I was diagnosed with diabetes, I had been having a lot of yeast infections, which as it turns out was related to the disease, then undiagnosed. I …

I don’t normally like aerosol hair spray products very much, as they tend to get wasted in the “cloud” they leave behind, often make me cough, and tend to end up having to be replaced sooner than non-aerosols of the same weight. However, I have to admit, they do spray …

This is a little on the expensive side but it’s organic and natural. I must say that $15 for about 2 oz isn’t too bad but it does accumulate over time if you keep buying this product. I’m glad I don’t have to write another review of how I’m …

I decided to try Band-aid flexible fabric bandages because the plastic ones always seemed too difficult to work with, especially when they had to be placed on the fingers. Plastic band-aids are much too stiff and tend to get wadded up when you bend your fingers. I got band-aid …

It is said that the amount of soap used by a community is fairly equal to the civilization rate that community enjoys. Meaning, the less soap we use, the more barbaric we look. I have always wanted a nice smelling soap, …

Lip balms have always been my favorite fashion accessory and I had loads of them (with different flavors) all over the place. In fact I husband even jokes about it saying that I could easily open up a store of lip balms with my collection. But still I if …

I have always wanted to have white teeth. When your teeth is yellowish, it has been said that it signifies good health to your teeth. But in my case, it is because I drink too much coffee. I drink 5 cups of coffee everyday. At night and right after meals, …
