A few years ago, I started using Always Infinity and have never looked back. Not only is it super thin, but it also never leaks. I hate the feeling of bulky pads and even though I'm always aware that Always Infinity is there, it's never as uncomfortable or awkward as a maxi pad. The price isn't the best, but it's worth it for such a great item. You gotta try it! -

The kind I have is the Party Pink color, and I'm pretty happy with it. Of course, since I don't have chapped lips or anything like that, I can't really comment on its "lip treatment" properties, but it doesn't smell/taste like cheap chemicals (which is a bonus)!
I don't wear make-up, but in the rare event that I do apply this gloss, I apply very little and spread it around. It sparkles and makes my smile more luminous! :)
I got this as a gift from friends, so I'm glad that I didn't pay $10 for it. Overall, it wasn't disappointing, but I suggest that you find another lip treatment/lip gloss product to buy.

At first, I was really excited to try out this product. I bought the 16 x 100g package and the idea of a yogurt with two split tastes was intriguing. The flavors (besides vanilla, which is the second flavor for all flavors) were strawberry, raspberry, blueberry and mango.
I guess everything tasted good on the first round. However, afterwards, it just tasted like any other yogurt -- it became boring. The vanilla is less viscous than the other flavor, and the other flavors tasted quite plain. I don't stir it. Though once, when I was almost done the cup, I stirred it, and it was obvious that there were two different flavors that kind of clashed.
I guess you could try it just for the novelty of it. However, you might be stuck with it for quite a while if you don't have other people helping you consume them!

I've been using this toothbrush for years, and I've been pretty happy with the results. I mean, though this product boasts that it "whitens" teeth, I don't really believe that. But if they use it as a marketing tool, then it should have some grain of truth to it, right?
It's very consistent with enough voltage in the battery, and it makes brushing my teeth easier. Of course, who brushes their teeth with a manual toothbrush now that we have so many electronic options available to us?
The brush needs to be replaced every 3-6 months, and 2 of them costs the same amount as a new toothbrush. The buttons are made of plastic/rubber, so after all these years, they've started to grow old and fall off. Also, now, I think that there's something wrong with the place where the battery is attached, because the toothbrush cannot be powered, even with full 1.5V batteries. They're good for 5 or so years, I guess.

I've gone to this place several times now, and every time, I order the Youvetsi (because I LOVE lasagna/pasta and because I don't eat beef). The prices are unbelievable low and the serving sizes are quite large. Unfortunately, the lineup is long, no matter the time of the day, but if you've got something to entertain you for an hour, go for it! It's crowded and busy, but that's just a sacrifice that you'll have to make for the awesome food and prices! -

I ordered these as samples, and I tried them on when I was sick and had a stuffy nose.
The concept behind these are pretty simple: a bendy, metal material that wants to snap back to its "straight" shape with a stick side to stick onto your nose. Basically, by sticking it onto your nose, it pulls your skin forward (in front of you), thus allowing more space for you to breathe. Its simplicity is actually quite disappointing, as it almost seems barbaric in its methods. Nevertheless, it did make breathing a bit easier at night (though not a miracle by any means). Try it out by ordering it as a sample, but don't put too much hope into them and waste $15 buying a pack of them at the drugstore.

Wow.
That one word just about sums up my experience with this product. I never knew that such a thin, comfortable pad could provide so much absorption! It doesn't leak and even after absorbing so much liquid, it doesn't grow and become uncomfortable. Ever since I've first tried it, I don't use any other pad to bed (except in dire emergencies) because I absolutely love it! It might seem a bit pricey, but the quality of it is simply remarkable. I would definitely recommend it.

This was my first time waxing, so after many, many hours of research, I decided to try out this product. Parissa had generally positive reviews, and when I went to the drugstore, it just happened to be on sale!
Of course, I first did a patch test, and though it was painful, with a bit of redness afterwards, I didn't get any allergic reactions to it. (Btw, I got the wax strips for legs and body.) I did everything correct, and maybe it was just my pain tolerance level, but I couldn't use a full strip at a time. I had to cut it up into 4 sections, so that's why maybe I missed hairs and stuff, and I also had trouble waxing the back of my legs.
Let's just say that though it took a long time (long breaks and bouts of swearing after pulling off each strip), I was pretty happy with the results -- until I noticed hair growing back about a week after I waxed. I don't think my technique was wrong (against direction of hair and parallel to the skin), but maybe I just haven't mastered the cycle of hair growth on my legs.
But I think that after more practice, it should get better. The azulene oil included worked pretty well (there was WAY more oil included than needed), but I think that if you can, you should take some ibuprofen beforehand to lessen the pain. A bonus was that there was no godawful smell and that each strip could be used twice (no more, or else it wouldn't stick).
