This product did not disappoint! I love other Aveeno products so I had high expectations for this lotion, and it really delivered. I don’t usually talk about the packaging, but I have to say I loved it. It’s a beautiful silky white tube with a turquoise cap. The lotion itself is also a very silky white. It is not thick and heavy like most creams that say they are restorative. It is very light, and it doesn’t take much to smooth it into your skin. The lotion is not greasy feeling either. I was just going to use it on my hands because they get very dry in winter, but I also loved it on my arms and legs. I think it would be amazingly soothing after shaving my legs. Most importantly, it is unscented. I have a very sensitive sense of smell and I don’t like scented products. Some unscented products have a chemical or medicinal smell but I honestly can’t detect any scent at all, which suits me just fine. I was surprised to really love this product because it’s hard to convince me to try new things, but I would definitely buy this product. -

Sad that my usual Shiseido product (Ibuki moisturizer with sunscreen in a pump bottle) has been discontinued. I decided to try this moisturizer by the same company.
First of all, I’m so disappointed about the lack of moisturizing products in a pump dispenser. I think jars are ripe for contamination from sticking your fingers in them, and I like that a pump gives you a consistent quantity of product. Having said that, i like that this product feels very light on my skin, and my face feels really good after I apply it.
I’m also very happy that this moisturizer has a Broad Spectrum SPF 20 in it.
I would not say this product is scented - if there is a ‘scent’ it is so light so as not to be noticeable.
Price point: it is on the mid-point price range ($64 where I bought it) though I see that Sephora has just dropped the price.
Overall a nice light day creme with an SPF. If it was in a pump I’d likely make this my usual moisturizer.

I purchased this product because my usual brand (Shisheido) discontinued their Ibuki moisturizer in a pump. I wanted something with an SPF, and this Lise Watier product has broad spectrum SPF. I like the pump because I don’t have to dip my fingers in a jar and potentially contaminate the whole thing.
This day creme is heavier than I’m used to - that’s neither a pro nor a con, just different. It is only very lightly scented, and not a really floral-y scent. Not unpleasant at all, and I don’t like scented products, so it worked for me.
It is an anti-aging lift and firm product but I don’t have a lot of wrinkles so I didn’t really notice any effects in that respect.
The price of this product was less than my usual product, so that was a plus.
Overall, this is a nice moisturizer, and I would buy it again, though I’m not sold on it yet to become my new usual moisturizer.

Advil Extra Strength Liqui-Gels
Other pain relief products don’t work for me, and caplets upset my stomach. The Advil liqui-gels are the only pain relief I use now. I use it for tough headaches as well as joint pain.

My husband recently installed laminate wood flooring and the installation caused unsightly black marks on the wood. We paid a lot of money for the flooring and I was so disappointed. I happened to have a Magic Eraser nearby and thought I might as well give it a try. It worked! It removed all of the black smudge marks without any elbow grease at all. I was amazed at how easy it was. -

I bought these citrus wipes because the original scent wasn’t available. I’m so glad I did! They are really a nice lemony scent which seems to drown out the ‘disinfectant’ smell. I usually don’t like the smell of antibacterial products, but these are wonderful. Totally switching to these! -
