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 …

If there is one thing I’m very familiar with, it’s the effectiveness of anti-itch sprays. Because I can easily say I’ve tried them all! Every single one of the most popular, and probably a ton of you’ve never even heard of. I’m that unlucky individual who, when at an …

I have finally found an antacid that works great, tastes great and doesn’t make me sick to my stomach. I’ve tried so many antacids like Rolaids, Alka Seltzer and even other Tums products but they simply do not work that well, they taste terrible and they leave a …
