I think this works as advertised. It is very soft - goes on soft and makes my underarms feel softer and smoother. It also has a nice smell that lasts awhile. I personally don't like a scent that is that strong and lasts that long but if you do, then this will do that.It also didn't leave any of those white marks on my clothes which I really like.
I also wore it while working out and running and it worked fine. I don't think it was any better or worse than any other brand though in this respect though.
One thing I specifically look for is for a deodorant or antiperspirant that won't turn the yellow armpit stains after awhile. I don't have a large enough sample to see if it would or not over a long period of time but for that reason I probably wouldn't switch my current deodorant as it took me a long time to find my current one. But if you do want your underarms to feel smoother then I think this would be good for you.

What I didn't like about these chips were the taste. I don't like the butter flavour at all. I prefer the Sweet and Salty ones but even those aren't fantastic or anything.
I did like the calorie information! 80 calories for 20 chips. That is pretty good! I think I would buy these but I'd just have to find a flavour that I actually like. I'm sure there is at least one I like.

I received this as part of the review club.
I haven't used Dove before but I liked it! It's pretty smooth and my skin felt pretty soft after I used it. Like the commercial says, some soaps leave a scummy feel after use but Dove doesn't. Well when I used it, I understood what they meant. My skin did feel less soap scummy which was awesome.
I generally prefer body washes so when I need to buy new soap I'll try the body wash and see what it is like. Overall I do recommend this product.

I've never had an electric toothbrush before, just a manual one so that is what I'll be comparing this product to.
The toothbrush is pretty simple in appearance, neat and sleek. It comes with with a charger, a regular toothbrush head and a toothbrush pick attachment to reach harder places. There are 2 power settings - the "clean"/higher setting and the "sensitive"/lower setting. The toothbrush always has a little pause every 30 seconds and this tells you to brush in another quadrant of your mouth.
I first tried the "clean" setting and having not tried an electric toothbrush before, it was pretty crazy! It was too much vibration for my teeth and now I use the sensitive setting. The sensitive setting is much better for me. After using this toothbrush for the first time my teeth felt unusually smooth. I think it's because my teeth were more clean than usual! If this is the case then this toothbrush is better than my regular toothbrush. Therefore this is a pretty good toothbrush to remove plaque.
I haven't noticed my teeth becoming more white but it could be that I haven't used it long enough. I've had it for about a week so maybe I haven't used it long enough.
I found the beeping very handy. You can keep brushing more but don't have to. It's nice just to have a reminder.
Overall I like this toothbrush. Even though my teeth might not be more white I think they're cleaner though I'll be able to know this for sure the next time I go to the dentist :P The only thing I'm not sure about is the price. If the retail price is $70, that means I could get 70 toothbrushes at $1/toothbrush. And if 1 toothbrush lasts about 3 months that's almost 17.5 years of toothbrushes! (If I calculated that correctly). And that would be a lot of savings over a long time considering you'd have to replace the electric toothbrush at times. That is the only con I'd see in this but the money could be worth the benefits of the toothbrush. I guess it'd depend how effective you are at brushing your teeth with a manual toothbrush. I like it!

Crest 3D White Whitestrips 2-hour Express

I've previously used other Crest White Strips where you wear them for 30 mins for a few days. My teeth did look whiter at the end of the treatments. I guess for these ones the 30 mins over a few days are crammed into 2 hrs in one day. Unfortunately I didn't really see much of a difference. They might be a little whiter but that could be me just hoping it's working. Even if they are a little whiter it's not that significant.
I do have sensitive teeth and after removing the strips my teeth are sensitive. I have had this with previous white strips as well so I expected it to happen. The sensitivity didn't start until after I removed the strips though. White the strips are on I didn't feel any discomfort.
Another aspect that I didn't like about these strips are that you have to wear them for 2 hours. That's a long time. I had to find the appropriate time period to where them. I kinda prefer the shorter time period over a few days because it's easier for me to find 30 mins a day as opposed to 2 hours.
Overall I probably wouldn't by this product again. I didn't get really great results and it's pretty expensive. The package is also for a whole year which is a long time. You might lose them in that time frame.

I prefer this scent over the Lavender and Vanilla one. I find it more refreshing. I live in a bachelor apartment and the low setting works well whereas I find the high setting is too strong. It also switches between both scents which is really nice. I've used other time released scent products before but this is definitely the best one I've used because the scent isn't too overwhelming. I'm not sure if I'd but this again or not due to the listed price, $12, which seems like a lot to me. It would depend how long it lasts for. It's been about a week so far and it doesn't look like much has been used so I think it'd last a long time but I'll have to wait and see. -

This is my favourite perfrume. It has a clean smell with a little bit of fruit and is not overpowering. I find that some perfumes are too strong and it can make me feel sick but I like this one because it's lighter. It also lasts a very long time. I can wear it both during the day or at night making it very versatile. In terms of price, it's about the average as perfumes go but I normally go to side stores where they'll sell it for a cheaper price. -

The first thing I noticed about this is the smell. As soon as it arrived in the mail and I opened the box I could smell the lemon. I like that a lot better than the "bleach/cleaner" smell.
I used this to clean my bathroom and it did a great job! I have use the regular Vim normally and I think this one is as effective as the regular one. Like some people have mentioned it does leave a bit of a film behind so I had to make sure to rinse everything off with water to remove that.
Works well, good price and smells like lemon! I might replace the regular vim cleaner with this one depending on the prices. I like the smell but probably wouldn't pay a lot more for it since it goes away after a bit.

Like all the other reviews this product did not work for me. I also don't have wrinkles around my lips so that wasn't much of an issue but the lip plumper definitely did not work at all. It was ok as a lip moisturizer when my lips were very dry but I can buy a chapstick for a cheaper price than this. So considering how this didn't work for me I definitely wouldn't buy it!
I did give some extras to some people at work who are older than me. If I hear back from them I will update this post with their results.

I've been using this for 2 weeks now and I don't see any difference from what I was using previously (Degree).
Both scents are very nice and not overwhelming. I've only been using the nature fresh one so far but I do like both smells. It does a good job keeping me dry all day if I have a normal day. If I go to the gym, I have to apply extra but I still sweat. Luckily, I do smell a bit nicer though. It has not reduced under arm stubble for me but I have only been using it for a couple of weeks so maybe I need to use it for a longer time period. What I dislike about all anti-perspirants are the white streaks it leaves on my darker clothes and this one was no exception. But the streaks do came out with water/rubbing.
Overall, I don't think this is that much different from my old anti-perspirant. I'll continue using this and if I notice over prolonged use that my underarm stubble decreases then I might switch over.
