Schick Intuition Tropical Citrus: There were a few bumps in the road when it came to this razor. The hook would not stick to my shower wall (which I am not sure if because of my painted tile, so I'll give that a pass), next was the struggle with the cap. Whether it was because I was a bit too rough trying to put it back on, or it just fits in a weird way, I am not sure; however (trying to) get the cap back on resulted in the razor and bar falling off numerous times. Although I loved the durable grip razor handle, the bar itself seemed very slippery and almost 'scary' to shave with. The razor did a nice job in the end, however I did find myself needing to touch up in places with a different razor a few hours later. This razor was a bit too much for me in the end...which would definitely make me pass on a future purchase. However, if moisturizer bars are your thing - I do think you would enjoy this. The razor smells unbelievably refreshing when you take it out of the pack. Like WOW. I have never had a razor that smelled so delicious. Eliminating the use of any shower gels or shave cream was also a definite plus. Your legs are left with a silky smooth finish and I didn't feel the need for any lotions afterward. -

Not being a huge fan of clear gels and also being prone to migraines from the scent of Lavender, I was weary of testing this product.
However, I really wanted to give it a shot.
I am definitely impressed by the promised benefits from Secret and following through with them.
I wear a lot of darker clothing (blazers, tank tops etc) so no streaking and no white residue was my personal favorite aspect of this antiperspirant. I also love that I felt no need to reapply half way through the day, as I tend to do with other products.
Secret Outlast Scent Expressions also does not leave a sticky residue behind. Which to me is just amazing, as almost every clear gel antiperspirant I have tried, has. That in itself could be a huge selling point (especially during those hot, sweaty seasons!).
The Lavender scent was not overbearing and I was very thankful for that. I fully intended on having a migraine that day once the Lavender scent kicked in, but...It didn't happen. It definitely is a major turn off when your antiperspirant scent is just as strong as your perfume scent. Secret has done a great job with combining a mild tone and staying true to their promises.
Will I purchase this product in the future? Most likely no. But only because I have a personal favorite already...From another Secret antiperspirant line :)
I would definitely recommend this product for those who love the clear gels. There were absolutely no "cons" I could find in this product!

I LOVE THESE!!
I bought the Nailene French Express Kit, as I wanted a manicure, but am always hesitant to get acrylics, just for the fact that I want nails one day, then may change my mind the next. I needed something nice and pretty, but that could be taken off the next day, if wanted.
I purchased these, being a bit weary as I have never had success in buying a do it yourself manicure from the store, that glues on.
These... are AWESOME.
They offer ones with easy tabs (which honestly didn't make much a difference when sticking on haha). I have now had my nails on for 2 weeks and they still look great.
Yes - they have stayed o through cooking, cleaning, doing dishes, showers, laundry.. You name it.
The price I paid was $14.99 (regular price). They come with enough nails, that I will be able to do one more set before I need to repurchase a pack.
They also have other options for colors (such as a blue tip...very cute. I will get for Hockey season - Go leafs)...
The package also comes with various sizes, so you are sure to find exactly the size that you need!
Really.. I am so happy with this product. It really stands apart from the rest, when it comes to "glue on nails".

Okay - So maybe a little odd, coming from a 35 year old woman...But I ADORE this perfume. I purchased it on a whim, as I had just ran out of my regular "fall" perfume and wanted something immediately.
I couldn't be happier. This perfume gives a light, fresh scent..Not too strong and has a nice "staying power". If you spray too much, the scent will die down some, so really no need to panic.
This is a great perfume scent for fall weather.
A random little tip, I have learned through the years (that has absolutely nothing to do with any one particular perfume). If you feel you have sprayed to much on your clothing - Hang your shirt over the fan (or in front of your air conditioner) for a few minutes :)
I have heard great things about JB's perfume line - and they have all definitely lived up to their hype!

I have been using the Gold Bond Skin Therapy Cream (moisturizing with aloe) for a while now. I love this cream, as opposed to the lotion - As it is definitely non greasy and gives a luxurious feel to your hands and elbows. The cream states that it is gentle enough to use on face, however I have been reluctant to try so for various reasons. My main being although it states that, it is not listed under the "ideal for". I am a little concerned about a possible breakout if used fully on face, but have been using it on my forehead... and I have noticed a difference for sure.
On problem areas, such as elbows I have noticed a major difference. I love it. For that reason alone, I would purchase again.

This is the first time I had actually gone out and purchased myself an EOS lip balm. I have always thought they were adorable, just never really thought to get one as I was stuck on using a different brand.
I have to say, I am almost done with my first 'egg' and I absolutely love it.
Not just for the refreshing feeling it gives my lips - But also for the actual healing power it promotes.
My lips get terribly dry, they crack and peel in cooler weather and this stuff has worked amazingly. It is great for night time use... Just dab some on and your lips feel wonderful in the morning. It has actually healed those small cuts you get from peeling lips.
I also love the size of these. I gotta admit, at first I did find them it a little odd at just how big they actually were...But I have yet to lose this one! Hahah. As opposed to the smaller type tubes that get sucked into my purse never to be seen again. Love em, love em.. Definitely recommend.

I tried both the Renova colored toilet paper and the Renova colored paper towels.
The paper towels are very soft and seem like "okay" quality. I love the pop of color they added to our kitchen. However, for the price (around $4) for a large roll, may only be a once in a while thing for our budget.
The toilet paper, I tried in the blue color. Definitely not my personal choice (I let my husband choose) haha. It is VERY blue - almost childlike blue. So it may go well in a kids bathroom. The scent is unbelievably strong and not pleasant whatsoever.
The price was not to bad - But they are also smaller rolls and 1 lasted only about a day and a half. I would definitely try the toilet paper again (in a different color) and only if the scent is not the same as the blue.
Our guests loved both colored products and made for good conversation pieces. However, it was also mentioned quite a few times about the overloaded (not so nice) perfumed scent of the toilet paper.
Both products would be great for holidays or occasions, but most likely wouldn't be something I would have every day around our place.

We love peanut butter combo pretty much with anything, in our house. I really thought this was going to be a hit, especially with my husband. Honestly, there was nothing too special about the product/combo. We still have a large amount of the jar left...and I don't think it's going anywhere, anytime soon. Disappointing though, I really do WANT to like it! lol -

My GAWWWD... THIS perfume.
YES, YES, YES!!
Deliciously amazing.
I found out about this perfume through a girl who had walked past me in a store.
She smelled delicious lol! So I asked her what it was she was wearing..
She seemed quite pleased herself and actually raved about how much she loved it.
So there ya go - I'll throw in a quick review from her too - A lol!
If this perfume was ever discontinued, I tell ya... It'd be VERY hard trying to find one that stood up to this!
I hope I never run out haha.

Truthfully - This is the only Scrubbing Bubbles product I have been very disappointed in.
It really does not hold up to the same cleaning power of the Scrubbing Bubbles Bathroom Color Power.
I feel like I still have to scrub away..and really, that's just worth it to me.
The pro of it would be, it still leaves a bit of a lovely "clean" scent.. However, the fresh clean scent fades quickly.
But with that being said.. I really do, overall, love Scrubbing Bubbles products...
And those little scrubber guys.. Cute as can be.
They could probably sucker me into anything hahah!
