I always have a box of these in my cupboard. I use them on walls, shoes and my husband uses it on his hockey equipment. It gets out all stains, beware when using it on walls that you don't wet it too much. The only down side is you can only use once or twice before throwing it away and getting a new one. -

The other day my husband asked why I was wearing fake eyelashes around the house... enough said.
I curl my lashes before application and it works very well! I buy it from Walmart where it's significantly cheaper than anywhere else. I usually use the one with the bigger wand but bought this one by mistake last time and it works great! Now I'm stuck between which one to get next time. Sometimes my lashes will stick together and get a little chunky but nothing any other mascara doesn't do.

I received this as part of the "Product Review Club" a few months ago. I felt I needed to give it a full two months before I write a review because I wanted to see all the benefits. The product is great, it goes on smooth and doesn't feel too oily. In the summer months my skin can sometimes feel rough and dry from the sun and pools. This product makes my skin feel smooth and hydrated. My skin is also prone to breakouts (especially with anti aging products) so I'm very careful with what I use and this product did not make me breakout at all! Overall, if you're looking for a good moisturizer with some extra benefits and smooth skin, use this product! -

Being someone who gets pimples frequently, I've tried almost everythign on the market from prescription to over the counter. I find this spot treatment GREAT! I used it for a while then got stuff from my doctor so I stopped. I had an under the skin pimple for a good three weeks, it wasn't going away with the cream my doctor gave me so I thought, why not try the Persa-Gel again, I washed my face put it on the spot (rubbed it in then put a tiny more to dry on, so the pimple was fully covered). I swear, I woke up the next day it was half the size. I used it again that night and the next day the pimple was GONE!
I now use both the cream my doctor gave me (Retisol-A) on acne scars and red spots and the Persa-Gel on active pimples. I find this works best for my skin and the pimples go away a lot faster. If you're at home stick some on your pimples. Beware though, you CANNOT go out with this stuff on as it dries up and looks like there is white toothpaste on your face. My brother gets the odd pimple and started using it and he loves it too :)
Good luck, the cheap price makes it worth a shot!

I was lucky enough to received Crest 3D Whitestrips for free from the Product Review Club. I have tried Crest White strips in the past when they first came out with them and they have come a long way! When I first tried the product years ago, they were very effective but I hated the taste and texture of the product when taking the strips off. They also smeared onto my gums while using the product so it wasn't very pleasant.
I was excited to try these as it has been quite a few years and I was curious to see if I would get the same great results without the gooey/messy after effect. I was pleased to see that they did in fact make my teeth noticably whiter and weren't as messy. I don't have tough stains as I'm not a coffee or pop drinker however I love a glass of red wine and the occassional tea.
One thing I did notice about this product and the previous crest strips I've tried is that I do not need to do it for the full term they suggest, the full 7 days. I find they got the job done after a few days which helps for someone who is worried about spending the money for 7 days worth of white strips.
Wearing the product for 2 hours/day can be difficult and time consuming as I wasn't able to talk comfortably in them and my mouth produced a little more saliva than usual. So I wouldn't recommend wearing them to work or on the go as some commercials suggest.
I didn't find my teeth more sensitive than usual, but I didn't eat ice cream or really hot beverages so that might be why.
Altogether, the product is a little pricey but it definately works and I did see improvements. Would I buy them? YES! Like I mentioned earlier, I've used them before and these are new and improved so I would definately use them again when needed. If you're someone who is in the market to whiten your teeth without going to the dentist I would say GO FOR IT! or if you're someone like me who has little staining and wants to brighten up your smile for a vacation/event spend the money and go for it too! You don't need to do the whole treatment time, a few will do and you'll have enough for another few days :)

i got this product to review and i love it! it doesn't smell too strong and its a nice refreshing smell. It can be used for both males and females because it isn't a fruity scent. It also didn't stink up the car for a few days then die. It seems to last. I would definitely buy it and recommend it. Especially to people who don't like regular car fresheners because of the strong scent.
i love all febreeze products and will add this to my list!

I was really excited to review this product as I have tried the Volumizing shampoo and conditioner and absolutely LOVE it!
First off, my hair isn't damaged but I was feeling like my ends were dry due to the windy/cold winter. So when I got the product I thought, perfect timing! I did use both the shampoo and hair masque every wash which made my hair a little greasy faster than usual. I started only using the masque once a week and saw much better results. My hair felt really silky and clean and the dry ends weren't there anymore. I'd say if your hair is dry and damaged this product is defi worth the price!
Thanks chirckadvisor and L'oreal! (My hair thanks you too!)

Thank you ChickAdvisor and L'oreal for allowing me to try this product!
I was really excited to try this product because I absolutely LOVE the L'oreal Professionnel Volume line. Let me begin. With saying my hair isn't really damaged, normal to oily and I lack volume (hence why I love the volume shampoo). I noticed my ends were starting to get dry due to the cold and windy winter months. After using the shampoo and conditioner my hair was shiny and feeling hydrated. I loved the results because it gave my hair life again. However, because I have flat hair and generally do not have dry hair after a few consecutive uses I did notice my hair getting greasier quicker than I would have liked. PLEASE keep in mind though I do NOT have dry hair. I also noticed that peopke didn't use the hair mask everytime they washed their hair, I did use it everytime so this could have happened because of that.
Overall, it did what it said it would, moisturized and repaired my dry ends. It smells AMAZING and makes your hair feel ultra soft while adding shine. I would definitely recommend this for the winter months or if you generally have dry hair. Although it is expensive, it is worth the price if you need the moisture. You don't need to use it everytime you wash your hair. I will now use it once a week at least!
Thank you L'oreal and Chickadvisor!

I have dark brown hair, I usually spray tthe top of my head where i get the most oily. i ONLY use this for emergency situations when i dont realize how greast my hair really is and i need to get out of the house. Not crazy about the smell. When you spray it does turn my hair white. i wait a few minutes like the instructions says then i brush it out. Initially i thought brushing it out would make me more greasy but it didnt. This does the trick, it gets rid of the grease but i hate the way it makes my hair feel.
Like i said, good for a quick fix, but obviously dont rely on it as i hate the way it makes my hair feel! only reason why i still use it is because its the only dry shampoo i found! any recommendations? send them my way!

This mint Julep scrub is AMAZING! I tried it at my boyfriends house, and instantly fell in love. He originally got it from a natural health food store and when i went to go purchase my own bottle it was gone ! I searched online and found it at Sallys for VERY cheap compared to any other facial scrub i've used in the past. Its around 2.50 i believe and actually works very well!! I had issues with acne so im VERY careful with what i put on my face. I use it twice a week as an exfoliater and it brightens my face right up feeling smooth and clean. The mint is very refreshing which is nice as well. Doesnt dry out skin -
