Assured Spring Mint Antiseptic Mouthwash
I really hate having sticky dry or smelly breath. I like to keep my mouth tasting and feeling fresh as much as I can. Though brushing can do the trick sometimes, I often feel I need more. I like to use mouthwash especially, because I have smoked for so …
Gaiam Tricord Total Body Workout Kit
I tried a Gaiam kickboxing workout a while back when I was working for LA Weight Loss and was inspired by all the customers to get my own life back on track and get into shape. I didn’t have a lot of weight to lose, but it never hurts …
Equate Anti-Plaque Mouth Rinse
This mouth rinse is sold only at Walmart, as it’s a Walmart brand. Before I started purchasing this mouth rinse, I was purchasing Plax mouth rinse, but after comparing the ingredients and the labels, I figured I’d switch to the Walmart brand since it does pretty much the exact …
St. Ives 24 Hour Moisturizing Lotion
I am forever trying new types of lotions. I decided that I would try St. Ives to see if it was any better than the lotions I had already tried. I purchased the St. Ives Lotion at the grocery store for $3.97 for a 16 oz. bottle. That is …
GNC Vitamin B-Complex
GNC Vitamin B-Complex is cheap but it really doesn’t qualify as a B complex in my book. It is a little light on the B vitamins and only has 6 main vitamins and they all aren’t B vitamins. This just barely qualifies to be sold under the name B-Complex. …
Slim in 6
Ok - so for those of you who dont’ know, the Slim in 6 is an exercise video which promises to reshape your body in 6 weeks. The focus is on aerobic exercise along and muscle toning exercises for about an hour a day. It’s recommended that you do …
Swish Mouthwash
Swish Mouthwash is the brand of my husband. He has been using this for months now. He switched to this alcohol-free mouthwash after he was convinced that alcohol-containing mouthwash can dry up his mouth and would most likely give him mouth cancer. At first he would not want to …
Gentle Naturals Baby Eczema Cream
I grew up with eczema so I understand how frustrating it can be. So needless to say I was pretty upset to find out my daughter had it too. The rash seems to be developing on her face and chest the worst and regular baby lotions just do not …
Philips Sonicare Toothbrush Sanitizer
Philips Sonicare Toothbrush Sanitizer is a very innovative product I have seen in recent times. Storage of toothbrush was always a concern for me. Especially the storing of expensive rechargeable automatic toothbrush heads is important me because of its prolonged usage. And Philips Sonicare Toothbrush Sanitizer came as the …
Sea and Ski suncreen
Sea and Ski is a suncreen that has been around for years. It is a suntan lotiion that I bought at Big Lots last year and it has served me well. This is really good at keeping your skin hydrated and is something that I use when I …
Band Aid Plastic Strips
Band Aid Plastic Strips is the best known brand of band aid in our country. Aside from it’s hygienic, safe and easy to use, I’m always sure that its very cheap price doesn’t affect its quality. Band aids are often used in small open wounds to …
Mederma Cream Stretch Mark Therapy
I purchased this product after reading some positive reviews. I was hoping for something that could help fade the stretch marks I have developed from weight gain and loss. I was hesitant to purchase it, because it is extremely expensive at nearly forty dollars for a small tube.
…
Softovac Powder
Softovac Powder is my favorite laxative. I have always detested the idea of using chemical laxatives because they are harsh on stomach. I have seen my grandfather suffering because of the prolong use of chemically formulated laxatives.
Softovac is different as it is entirely prepared with herbal formulation. It …
Ester-C vitamins
I take my vitamins faithfully. I consider myself to be a really healthy person. I take care of my body now so it will take care of me later. I began to notice that I was starting to get …
Rogaine for Women
A few years ago, I went through a major life change and worked, for several months to change my bad life-style habits. As a result, I lost 50 lbs of weight that I had carried with me for more than a decade, and was very proud of myself. However, …
Fantasy Bath Scented Body Butter- Merry Cherry Cheesecake 6oz
I fell in love with the many wonderful and unique fragrances offered by Fantasy Bath. They make amazing bath bombs, and I have not found a single product of theirs that I was not happy with. I decided to order one of their body butter bars, because I was running …
Urban Spa Full Body Natural Sea Sponge 1ea
When my loofah sponge finally went all weird and it was time for something new, I decided to try another sea sponge. I had owned a few in the past, and liked the texture and the way they made lots of lather, and they also look kind of cool hanging …
Arnica Gel
I’ve always had a tendency to bruise very easily. If you combine that with the fact that I am constantly bumping in to things- it becomes quite a problem. A week ago I dropped a rather heavy carton on my leg, it fell off the side of the trolley …
Dettol Antibacterial skin care Hand wash
Dettol antibacterial hand soap has become our family hand wash since past 2 weeks. I got attracted to the pink coloured bottle top and when I saw it was Dettol, I thought of giving it a try. The pink …
Kojic acid soap
I’m loving this soap. I had bought last month the orange colored soap on eBay for only 40PHP per 145g soap. It smells like orange fruit and Perla detergent soap. Kojic acid is said to whiten skin because it’s made from fermented sake. This soap lightens my face faster …
Listerine Zero Clean Mint Mouthwash
As a user of non alcohol mouthwashes, I was thrilled to see the iconic Listerine had added one to its line. Although I have never liked Listerine due to its very intense burning sensation, I do recognize that it is a good product and has probably helped millions to avoid …
Prodigy Voice Blood Glucose Monitoring System
I have low vision and it is very hard for me to use a standard glucose meter. When this meter became available to me, I was thrilled.
The Prodigy Voice talks you through everything. Literally. From the set up to the every day operation this thing just chats …
Dettol Soap
At my home we all are very particular of personal hygiene. We take precautions of brushing our teeth twice a day, using clean and separate towels, using antiseptic face creams and so on.
Years ago, I made it a habit to use Dettol soap. Following me, all the family members …
Grossan Hydro Pulse Nasal/Sinus Irrigation System
Frontal and orbital sinuses need to be cleared every once in a while, by devices other than a Kleenex. It is proven, and there are plenty of devices sold at drugstores to help clear out sinuses.
I was looking for a product such as this,and found Dr. Grosan …
Sensodyne Pronamel Daily Mouthwash
One of the reasons I like using this Sensodyne Pronamel mouthwash is because it seems to be pretty powerful but at the same time it is not too harsh. Some mouthwashes have that —˜blowing your head off’ effect when my eyes start to water and I am in …
Great Fruit Seed extract
This herbal medicine to me is a miracle rug. It’s really not an herbal medicine but more like a fruit extract. You can buy it at the whole foods store for around $7. Now the price is really high considering the size of the bottle but it isn’t something …
Nutribiotic Nasal Spray Pump 1oz
A couple of years ago, I suffered an episode of sinus infection and inflammation that just did not want to go away. I took several different antibiotics, which would work, but then the problem would return within weeks. I started to suffer dizzy spells and was even given a CAT …
Caress Velvet Bliss Beauty Bar Blackberry & Vanilla Essence
There are several brands of cleansing bars marketed to women that have been long time favorites of mine. One of the brands near the top of my list is Caress. It has been around for years, and the quality and consistency of the brand is excellent.

Lydia Herbal Liquid supplement
Despite what everyone tells me, I have always been a huge fan of herbal medicines. My father was a doctor who practiced herbal remedies and so I have found that taking them reduces a lot of sickness. Rather than buy over the counter medications, I have taken the time …
Freederm Acne Treatment
Freederm Acne treatment is a revolutionary way of treating acne. Or so the box says. When you actually get it out of the box, you find it’s actually just the same as all the others. It’s a lotion you rub into your skin and hope for the best.

2nd Skin Blister Pads
This last year has proven itself a difficult one, full of a whole lot of challenges I haven’t had to deal with in the seven years prior. I used to be a stay-home mother of two, happily taking care of my household and family, while puttering around the house …
Alli
I’ve always been overweight and I’ve tried a lot of different ways to lose weight including diet and exercise. When Alli was finally released into the public, I was extremely excited to try it, but I kept putting it off. The price was a little more than I wanted …
Origins Plantidote Mega-Mushroom Eye Serum
Dr. Andrew Weil for Origins Plantidote Mega-Mushroom Eye Serum
My dad frequently uses Dr. Andrew Weil for Origins Plantidote Mega-Mushroom Eye Serum, and he recommended me to use it as well.
This acts as an eye serum, and it is basically functions to optimize skin’s defenses. It costs a reasonable …
Wahl Deluxe Heat Therapy Pro Massage
This massager is a horrible piece of merchandise. The only reason I bought it was because my husband would get off of work and complain about how much his back was hurting. I figured if I got him something that he could use at work, then he would A …
One A Day VitaCraves
I have never been a person who likes taking vitamins. It’s not that I don’t think they will improve my overall health (though I do have some doubts about them really doing anything), it’s just I always have a habit of forgetting to take them.
In addition, I have an …
Neko Bouquet Soap
When I had severe itching and rashes all over my body in summer, my dermatologist prescribed me to use Neko Bouquet Soap along with an antihistamine medicine. It was the first time when I used this highly popular soap and found it useful not only for rashes, but also …
Orajel Antiseptic Mouth Sore Rinse
I and others in my family sometimes get sores on the inside of our mouths. These sores can make chewing and talking painful at times as well as difficult because we may need to try avoid irritating the sores with our teeth. They are sometimes slow to heal, especially …
Burt’s Bees Doctor Burt’s Res-Q Ointment
Over the past two years (that’s when I was first introduced to Burt’s Bees products, even though it’s been around forever), I have used just about every Burt’s Bees product imagineable. I don’t like the fact that these products are extremely expensive, especially when I’ve trained myself to shop …
Pronto Invisible Volumizing Dry Shampoo Spray
I hadn’t used any dry shampoos before until my best friend recommended trying it. She knows I’ve had a load of trouble dealing with my hair because it’s so thick that I can’t even wash it every day because it will dry out the tips too much, especially in …
Bodyglide anti chaffing stick
I work in a retail establishment selling shoes, and have worked there for over a year now, and we are “encouraged” to wear the company’s shoes if possible and, I have to admit, these shoes are NOT comfortable by any stretch of the imagination. Might be good cheap shoes …
Skin Support Dietary Supplement: by Arbonne
This is my last review for Arbonne’s Clear Advantage line. This is the line that is used to prevent and control acne. Step five has to be my most favorite product at all and one of the only two I would swear by. The other product was step 4 …
Sight Savers Contact Lens Case 3 Pack
When I purchased my new set of contacts, it came with a contact lens case to keep the lenses safe when they weren’t in my eyes and to help keep them moisturized. The case gets a little raggedy looking after a while and dirty to boot. I wanted to …
Likas Papaya Soap
I have used this soap for a while now because I was intrigued by it. Papaya soaps are nothing rare in the Philippines, because a lot of people here want to make their skin lighter. But with the mass number of Papaya-made soaps and beauty products, I think that …
Valeo Yoga Mat
I am an avid user of Valeo Yoga Mat after my old yoga mat was damaged. It cost $13 online. For a low price, I think it is a great product you should use as well. It has the dimensions of 24″ width x 48″ length, and weighs not …
Yogi Peach DeTox Tea
So have you seen all these fancy DeTox teas all over the instagram? The ones that promise to help you lose weight, reduce bloating, heal the pain, cleanse your skin and all that other stuff. And have you seen the prices for those? Yep, it’s $30-60 per a 2-weeks program. …
