As a home daycare provider I have used MANY different sunscreen. Some are so thick they are hard to apply to a squirmy kid, others so greasy the child just slips away. I have used spray on sunscreens and have had mixed results with them as well. Sprayer clogs or the mist is so fine that I'm never sure there is adequate sunscreen applied as it gets carried away in the wind. This year I decided to try the Banana Boat Natural reflect for Kids on my own children. Although slightly on the thicker side it goes on easily and leaves no greasy feel....which means no sand stuck like glue at the beach! There is also virtually no scent to it. I did not find it to cost much more than regular sunscreens and I can feel good about using a sunscreen which has "100% naturally sourced sunscreen ingredients". -

After switching from gel detergent to gel packs (so kids could help with the dishes) I found that our dishes were not getting as clean as they used to. They would often come out with food still stuck to the plates and cutlery. We decided to try the Finish Quantum tabs and have not looked back. The dishes come out clean every time and there is no residue left on the glasses. Best of all they are easy to use so the kids still get to load the dishwasher. ;) -

I am not a regular user of whitening products but I got a sample of the Crest 3D Whitestrips so I thought I would give them a try. I was a bit concerned because several years ago I tried another whitening strip and it irritated my gums badly. The Crest 3D white strips stayed on my teeth well and I didn't feel any of the gel leaking into my mouth. I had no gum irritation but did experience some minor tooth sensitivity. The product did whiten but I would not say you are going to get a gleaming white smile unless you were already pretty close to having one! Although they are pricey I think if it was in my budget I would use them....at the very least before a special occasion. -
