I read quite a few reviews before I bought it and found most of them to pertain to real issues. I was excited to get it quickly and try it. I was disappointed as it cost me time and effort.

- It is poorly designed for an average person's nose bridge and eye socket. The designers chose a profile that does not fit 95% of people. The nose ridge area needs to be wider and 'sloped' back to allow average person to have it fit comfortably. I had six people try it on and it did not fit a very small nose to a larger one.
- Average eye glasses could have been used to create a design that fits most people. I have never had to get customized glasses for size fit. Most people can wear off-the-shelf glasses. Disappointing that the designer did not undertand human physiology.
- The heat is almost non-existent compared to a mask that can be heated in a microwave. With the plethora mask available, it is shameful that the designer did not consider the measurement in this design. I have used several brooder mask from cheap to expensive and never had a fit issue. Because of poor design of the nose ridge, the eye portion of the device does not even come close to a normal person eye width. Again, even cheap sunglasses could have been a design prototype
- The massager does not work as claimed nor is it possible for it to work since all it does is make noise to pretend it is working! Shameful
- I saw a lot of talk about music in the reviews. That was not an important feature for me but it seems to be ok. I think lot of reviews are not used to reike type music.
- The hard case (I know it is needed to house the motors) is a big design flaw when a normal human skull size is not considered. It barely fit a small person let alone normal or large person
- The temple thumper is way too aggressive and may cause some injury. I am not sure why it is not mentioned in any reviews. It is almost dangerous on how hard it pushes on your temples
- The strap is designed for a ten year old child's head and not an average human adult.

This was a big disappointment! I sent it back


Purchased this for use in the home with my mother who is at risk of falling. I use the bed alarm and it functions well. If you are in a similar situation this product will allow you to go to sleep or go about your day confident that your loved one will not get up without you knowing.

I place the sensor pad on the bed beneath her shoulders so I know when she's sitting up. This gives me plenty of time to get to her before she tries to get up on her own. I place it underneath the bed sheet and bed pad used for toileting. Check the position of the pad each time you make the bed to make sure it hasn't slipped.  It is very effective and has not failed me as long as the sensor pad is positioned correctly. I am running through the batteries, so will purchase the AC adaptor for use at night.

If I were to improve this product:
1) Make more volume levels. The lowest is still loud enough to travel through walls. It is important, for the person's dignity, for them not to feel so monitored. To keep from bolting out of bed at night I have put a piece of duct tape over the speaker, and sometimes put it under the covers with me.
2) Make the alarm unit lighter and smaller so it can be worn or easily carried in a pocket.
3) Make a variety of alert sounds that don't sound like alarms. Even the chime sounds alarmy.
4) Make it rechargeable.
5) Make the resetting of the alarm unit more obvious.

Note: I do not use the chair pad for a variety of reasons. For the person's dignity, the pad should be camouflaged. That is difficult when she's sitting on a couch. She moves around from couches to chairs several times during the day and its not practical to try to position the sensor on every one or to run around putting it down before she sits (re: dignity). I keep the chair pad in case we get to the point where she is in a wheelchair during the day. Right now she's using a walker.

Note: I purchased this on my husband's amazon account therefore this review will not show up as a verified purchase, but this is the unit I purchased here on Amazon.


The Kirkland Aller-Flo Fluticasone Propionate (Glucorticoid) 5 Bottles x 120 Metered Sprays .54 Fl OZ per Bottle (15.84 mL x 5) 2.70 OZ Total (79.0 mL Total) 600 Total Sprays Total Pack of 2 is excellent!  This is exactly what I was looking for.  My allergist had gave me a prescription for Flonase Nasal Spray when it first was manufactured many years ago.  Then, when the nasal spray became available over the counter, the price of the Flonase Nasal Spray became too expensive for me to use.  My allergist then prescribed the Fluticasone Propionate Nasal Spray, which is a generic form of the Flonase Nasal Spray.  Now the insurance companies refuse to cover this medication, because you can buy it over the counter.  This was good, however, I needed a bulk amount, because I use this spray on a daily basis.  When I searched for this online and saw that I can purchase this medication online and by a bulk amount, I was happy as a clam and I was sold on the description of this nasal spray.  This nasal spray has the same ingredients as the Flonase Nasal Spray.  I started using this and I am pleased to say that this nasal spray works just as it describes.  You have a choice of the amount you want to purchase according to bulk.  I purchased a total of 4 packages which is a total of 20 bottles.  This is much cheaper than buying it in the store and paying a lot more money.  It may appear to be expensive, but if you count the amount each bottle has in metered sprays, 120 metered sprays is a lot better than 60 metered sprays, which I used to buy.  This is the best choice that I made financially, and I am satisfied and this nasal spray will last me a long time and it works.


Ah, I love Julian Bakery's protein bars.  Usually.  They honestly make my all time favorite protein bar, their primal thin sweet cream...which if you're reading this, you may not want to try because you may be vegan, which I am not, just vegetarian with vegan leanings, and that bar has whey in it.  So, of their vegan bars, I've tried three.  This was my least favorite, I actually liked the cinnamon twist the best.

So, what was interesting to me about this bar was the protein source...watermelon seeds. I was super curious about how that would work out in terms of flavor, so curious I didn't pay attention to the fat content on the nutritional label when I ordered it, and it is generally higher then I want in a protein bar because I have some fat restrictions on my diet, so to eat these I have to make adjustments elsewhere. And honestly the watermelon seeds were probably what gave it the slightly bitter aftertaste that I wasn't so sold on.

These bars are high in fiber, which I think is great, but not as high as their ginger snap cookie protein bars, which use pumpkin seeds.  I do really like that they use more natural ingredients.  I can not say enough how big of a fan of that I am.  I do like that these have a bit of iron, because I tend to save their pegan or vegan bars for my period because I generally need a boost of that nature then, but this bar doesn't have as much iron as either cinnamon twist or ginger snap.

The texture is a bit dryer then their egg white sunbutter bar which I love the taste of ...my apologies for offending any vegan sensibilities on that one :)  So for me, the texture wasn't an issue, I kind of like that it doesn't stick to my teeth as bad as the egg white sunbutter one, but the star came off for the bit of an aftertaste.  I think the all natural ingredients thing totally trumps the slightly bitter aftertaste, but because they have bars I like better that work better for both my fat content preferences/needs, I doubt I'll be ordering this one again.  I do think it's a solid enough bar, and probably if you like a little bit of the flavor of watermelon seeds you'll do just fine with this one.


I have been using serums for a little over 3 months now but I have not used a Vitamin C serum. I really like the idea of the serums and I do I feel that my skin has looked younger and it has defiantly cleared up a lot of my adult acne.  I was looking for other options so I don’t have to constantly put on the serum wait for it to dry, then put on a moisturizer or another serum wait for that to dry and then a primer. It was taking way too much time in the morning. When I saw that Dewdrop had a series of three serums, that all had multiple ingredients I thought this would be good.  The serum is made with vitamin E, vitamin C, Hyaluronic acid, and aloe leave juice. Therefore making this a must buy.  I actually bought there hyaluronic acid, retinol, and vitamin C serums.  They all have great ingredients and will help with moisturizing and time. I am glad this one does not have retinol I it because if you use retinol you have to stay out of the sun because it can cause skin irritation.
I received this product on time and as described by seller. Item was properly packaged and item was intact. No leaking was noted.  The serum came in a brown glass bottle.  Vitamin serums should come in a darker glass container so the light does not break down the chemicals.  It should be a liquid that is almost like a watery lotion. It is white in color, some are clear based on what vitamins used. This serum is exactly how it should be. I am very pleased with the product so far. I feel it is a good product and good for the price. I also will be reviewing the other two products as well.
I received this product at a discounted price or for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. The change in price did not change my opinion in any way.


Despite my healthy diet and exercise, I was diagnosed with hypertension two years ago.  I was started on the lowest dose of Diovan which worked well.  However, I am aware of the side effects and perhaps even more serious side effects that we are not made aware with prolong use of hypertensive drugs (major concern).  With that in mind, I prayed to GOD to show me a natural way to deal with this blood pressure.  I've tried everything as far as natural remedies, but I always had to go back taking the Diovan because nothing worked.  One day, I was on my computer searching for something to purchase in Amazon.  Somehow, during my search a bottle of Carlson fish oil came on the screen and I started reading about it.  I knew GOD was talking to me.  I purchased it from Amazon and started using it since June 23, 2013.  I monitor my blood pressure morning and afternoon with great results.  But I must say I also watch my diet, low salt and no added salt on my food.  I walk 1/2 hour 3-5 times a week.  Since June 23, 2013 to this day I have not taking the Diovan prescribed.  The bottle of Diovan is still sitting on my kitchen cabinet.  CVS called numerous times for refill and I told them I have no need for this medication.  I am so grateful for this medication.  I take a tablespoon in the morning once a day.  I feel as if I cannot do without it.  I will forget everything in the morning, but not my Carlson fish oil.  I forgot to mention, I had insomnia and that's gone.  I sleep well at night.  Oh my GOD I am so grateful for this product.  Some months ago I took the fish oil capsule, I obtained no positive results as I did with the Carlson fish oil.  I don't like to write but I feel compel to tell everyone about this product.  Good luck all!


I was being "treated" for years with the usual pharms for ADHD... and while I was able to maintain focus, I was not doing well in many other ways. No matter how much sleep I got, I felt exhausted. My blood pressure was very low. I came to the realization, with the assistance of a Resident in Psychiatry, that something had been and was terribly wrong: I listened to her concerns, then did the research and found all of the evidence that I was suffering from Dopamine depletion. I made a decision to stop the pharms and as soon as the L-Phenylalanine arrived, I took one capsule. The results have been amazing. I used to feel cold so much of the time, it was absurd. An hour after taking one capsule, my body felt warm and vibrant and I no longer feel cold in what would be considered warm temperatures. In the past months, my sense of humor has returned. I am more organized and am able to focus quite well  PLUS do not have the feeling of being a machine that is pushing itself beyond what is natural in order to concentrate. What's more is that as much as I am energetic, I am calm. My thought processes are no longer tangential and I'm able to stay "on topic"... not so with the Psych meds I'd been taking. I look back and see that I was a MESS. I have been "pharm-free" for nearly three months, now -- and although I have a supply sitting within easy reach, I've no desire to take the stuff again.

I still have "Attention Deficit", but this product seems to be the answer to the majority of problems AND it is not destructive to my mind and body. The difference in my moods and feelings of well-being are most impressive! I recommend that anyone who takes amphetamine or Ritalin buy a bottle of this and at least "vacation" for a week on the L-Phenylalanine and be aware of how you feel. It's a worthwhile investment! This is especially true if you read this review and recognize that you are having the same sort of problems I was experiencing.


After ordering a test for myself, my husband and my daughter, I decided to do a little more research on hair testing for allergies (wish I would have done this before I ordered-- stupid me!), and have basically come to the conclusion that hair testing is one of the LEAST accurate ways to test for allergies. If you ask me, it's not worth your time. And, here is why:

1. I initially ordered the test for myself because I had a rash on my hand for about a year that wouldn't go away. Shortly before ordering the test, I stopped eating all nuts, and it cleared up within a week! I wanted to get an allergy test done anyway so that I knew for sure it was nuts (I didn't want to avoid them for the rest of my life it that wasn't even the problem). When I got the results back, nuts were NOT listed as an intolerance for me (YAY!) so I starting eating them again.... and guess what, the rash came back.

2. My husband already knows he has a shellfish allergy (his hands swell up big time), but that didn't show up on his test. Hmmmm....

3. I find it kind of odd that "bread, baguette" was on the list for me. So just bread?? Baguettes, specifically? What about crackers or pasta? Did they mean gluten? I'm confused. This seems really vague to me. In fact, all of the results were vague and disappointing.

4. Cats were listed as an intolerance for my daughter, but she sleeps with our cats every night and has no known allergies or symptoms to anything. I simply ordered the test for her out of curiosity.

5. The list of foods that came back on all of our test results as intolerances have never been a problem for us. But the foods that DO seem to be problematic for us, DID NOT show up on our results.

To be fair, I don't think any allergy test is 100% accurate. The only way to know for sure if your body is reacting to something is through trial and error. In my experience, you have to eliminate one thing from your diet at a time that you suspect may be a problem for several weeks, and then see if you experience any improvement.


Disappointed is the only word that comes to mind, when trying to describe this Dental Water Flosser.  I was quite excited to find a rechargeable, portable model... and couldn't wait to try this one out.  Unfortunately, I am unable to tell you anything useful about it. First-off, in unboxing the unit and reading the manual, I discovered that the kit I received was missing the toothbrush head- prominently referred to in the manual. That wasn't so bad, these things happen... and I already have a toothbrush, anyway. I finished reading the manual, and plugged the flosser in, to charge it up. The power display is tiny, but readable. With the flosser now fully-charged, I attached one of the six supplied flossing heads. According to the manual, the device should recognize the attached head- and indicate so, on the display- putting the unit into 'stand-by'.  But... nothing happened. I tried a 'short' press of the power button: Nothing. I tried a 'long' press of the power button: Nothing. I tried the "Mode" button: Nothing. I tried another flosser head: Nothing. I tried the "nose cleaning" attachment (really??): Nothing. I re-read the manual... twice: Nothing! I even tried powering it on, while plugged in: Nothing. But the display kept saying the battery was fully-charged. On top of all of that, tipping the flosser assembly- even in the slightest- resulted in water noticeably leaking past the rubber seal on the reservoir- making a mess! I only filled the reservoir, two-thirds full, because the manual warns against overfilling- saying not to exceed the fill line... but, what line? There's no indication on the reservoir, at all! I didn't mind the missing brush head, I could even live (begrudgingly) with the leaking... but a brand new product, that's DOA?... Disappointed... that's putting things mildly.


Great product but the company is going through growing pains and is understaffed. Thus, the wait times for customer service or even updating an order or credit card number are long and frustrating. If you need to do either, I've learned through trial and error that calling them is the only way to get a quick response, but there really should be working options to make these and similar changes on their website... But to make it up to me they also upgraded me to 2-day shipping for free and gave me a nice discount. I'd say that makes it worth it. However, I'm curious how much it'd cost me to make my own Optimind. If I ordered the ingredients in bulk, or even just through a combination of cheaper products that have the same ingredients, I'm sure I could have the same thing for less than half the price, even with the discount. So what you're really paying for it the convenience of the all-in-one Energy and Focus pill.

The product works well for me, better than coffee and with fewer side-effects. Unlike coffee, Optimind (or anything with isolated caffeine) does not have a significant laxative effect. However, the caffine can produce a mild laxative effect for some people, especially those who are sensitive to it. The nootropic compounds won't work miracles, but for me they do seem to have a subtle positive effect on focus and mental clarity. There's varying amounts of research supporting how well they work, but no really strong scientific meta-analyses. I recommend research the individual ingredients with examine.com to learn more.

It's also important to note that we don't know how much of each ingredient (especially the nootropic ones) is present is Optimind. So the amounts they put in might not be enough to really produce a noticible or significant effect. It won't hurt to take them, unless you're alergic or have liver disease, but like I said - alone it won't work miracles either. If you want to strongly feel those effects consider making your own blend or supplementing with more of the nootropic compounds, or other ones.

TL;DR: It won't make you Limitless, but is definitely worth a try.


I’ve been living in Japan since 2016, so when I came back and heard they stopped making the Cherry Blossom Pomegranate Lysol, I was upset. Pretty much everywhere you look, Cherry Blossom is everywhere in Japan. It’s very difficult trying to find anything Cherry Blossom scented in the United States. Even Japanese Cherry Blossom from BBW doesn’t really smell like Cherry Blossoms to me. I also love the Lilac scents that Glade, Mrs. Meyers, and Febreze have out. I don’t like that most floral scents have to be limited edition and seasonal scents. Great Value has a Japanese Cherry blossom spray that smells like cherry blossom 🌸 and similar to this cleaner. I doubt it’ll be our yearly, I’ve only seen it this Spring.

I ordered 3 bottles of this spray and all were packaged very well.
However, unfortunately some had spilled into the box. All 3 were not completely filled and there was some cleaner spilled in the box. I paid $30 for 3 bottles…that’s $10 a bottle. I think it’s worth it being they don’t sell this anymore anywhere, but they aren’t full bottles.
The original bottles I had were full. I still have an old bottle from 2015 and it had more cleaner than these came with. I keep hoping they bring these back, but for now I’m just going to hope and pray my husband is okay with me spending $30 on these again when I run out. 😬
I’m going to add water to help make it last longer because the bottles arrived half empty. It could also be due to the spray nozzle and when you overfill them, it can cause spillage.
I haven’t used them yet, so I’ll measure them on a scale before I use them and take photos of how much is in the bottles. If I remember, I’ll post more photos when I do.
I may just have to place an order once a month so I can stock up on it. I’ll be using it often anyways. It smells exactly like the original one, so I believe it’s the real deal. I understand the price is only high because they don’t make it anymore.


I decided to purchase the Aria to use in conjunction with my FitBit for  my  fitness improvement.  I had a little trouble installing the scale.  I am a senior but reasonably computer savvy.  Finally I used an alternate installation route suggested and that worked.  Of course it measures your weight, but also BMI and body fat %.  And it all syncs automatically to your PC.  I'm looking forward to FitBit getting an app for my Windows phone.

I decided to add some additional info about the setup after reading some of the other reviews.  I am a 74 year old senior and as I said reasonably computer savvy.  I did use Geek Squad to install my WiFi  two years  but didn't think I would have any problems as I have installed other programs.  Well I have no idea what Ethernet is, and wasnt about to pull out cables from my computer if I could figure out which cable to pull out!  But after trying for about 30 minutes I decided to use the alternate method suggested  with my iPad (I have a windows phone so couldn't  go that route).  After a couple of false starts I was able to get connected.  I had the scale on my  desk next to the PC (my floors are carpeted) and after I connected I took it upstairs to the master bath and it works great.  I figure if this 74 year old can do it anyone can.  I figure all this computer work is keeping my brain young, and  hopefully  I'll be able to keep  up with my 6 year old grandson!

One other note:  I was a little concerned about the body fat % as it seemed  high to me.  BMI was normal.  Anyhow I went on line and found a chart that was age adjusted and that was normal.  So even though I know this isn't the most accurate way to measure body fat it still was a relief to know that I wasn't  out of line.


Great scales, streamlined, stylish, and easy to use. Although made of glass, it is sturdy enough for every day use as long as you don't use it as a trampoline. So no jumping and jiggling it to try to get the thing to forget about that chocolate eclair and the two brownies you binged on!  And definitely drop kickicking it when you discover you have gained weight over the holidays.

I compared it to my weight on my doctors scales. My old scales were off by 3 lbs (they were 3 lbs lighter, so I have mixed feelings about tossing it out). This scale was dead on!  Guess I will have to lose those pesky 3 lbs. At least it has a bright, easy to read display so that my bleary old eyes can read it as I stumble into the bathroom each morning. Some days, I'm not sure that is such a good thing...Remember, if your self-image is inextricably tied up with the numbers on the scale, you need to weigh yourself first thing in the morning, at the same time each day, making sure to give that special someone a thrill by weighing yourself in the buff. And make sure to do this before you eat or drink. Even then, expect some fluctuations due to water weight. This is especially true for women due to hormonal variations, but if you happen to have grazed your way through a bowl of nachos, gobbled down a bag of salty chips, indulged in a pizza, or hit the local salt lick, expect to weigh more the next day regardless of your sex.

Note: I had chucked my old scales out weeks earlier, so when I first looked at my weight on this thing, my heart leaped for joy. Then, I realized the scale was in kilograms. It took multiple tries on my part to convert it to pounds, so hang in there. It will come around. Of course, you may not be all that happy when it does. I rather liked only weighing 45% of my normal weight.


I love these masks for my family for several reasons.  I also have a couple of cons, which I will list below.  But even with the cons I can’t find any masks that work as well and are made in the USA.  I will continue to use and purchase these!

Pros
1. Made in the USA.
2. Neck strap!!  My boys are going to school and I like knowing they won’t be setting their masks down random places.
3. Easy for my kids to put on!  No ties or anything like or previous masks that hung from our necks.  Schools won’t be able to help students with their masks so I had to make sure my boys could put the mask on and off alone.
4. Thick, can’t feel my breath on the other side; even without an additional filter.
5. Super soft and doesn’t bother or pull on our ears.
6. Washable!!  We wash ours at the end of each day and have had no problem after many weeks of doing this.

Cons
1. We had one (out of 16 masks) that had a seam separate.  Not that big a deal since it was just one out of the 16 I purchased.  I can fix it myself.
2. Thick, we live in the south and it gets very hot in these masks!!
3. Only two solid colors to choose from.  My son would like to wear some of the cooler looking masks he sees other kids wear but he understands these are best for where they are made and with the neck strap.
4. No nose piece to form the mask to your nose.  We all wear glasses and when you walk out the door in the south and are hit with humidity a mask that doesn’t block the breath well makes it worse.  I’ve gotten to where I don’t wear my glasses when I have my mask on.
5. Again, the black color is VERY HOT to wear.  We know they sell white but we agreed as a family that looks like we are wearing underwear on our face!! Lol So we will deal with the hotness.


I first saw FACE BEHIND THE MASK on TV when I was 10 years old. That was back in 1963. The print wasn't very good even for that time and it was billed as a horror movie which it wasn't but still, even at that young age, I was moved by Peter Lorre's acting and the plight of his character. He plays a Hungarian immigrant, newly arrived in America, whose face is disfigured in a hotel fire. Although he possesses many skills, no one will hire him. On the verge of suicide he is rescued by a sickly thief (George E. Stone) and embarks on a life of crime until he meets a blind girl (Evelyn Keyes). He then tries to change his ways but Fate has other plans.

What makes this little 1941 film so remarkable is that it was shot in less than 2 weeks for around $100,000 and was planned as a B movie all the way. Based on a radio play, the screenplay was tailored specifically for Peter Lorre. who, although he disliked the script, gave a wonderful performance. The movie was directed by the undervalued French born director Robert Florey who had worked with Bela Lugosi on MURDERS IN THE RUE MORGUE (1932) and would work with Lorre again on THE BEAST WITH FIVE FINGERS (1946). Like the best B movie directors, Florey knew how to use lighting and camerawork to enhance his projects.

For all of its video life up until now, FACE has existed only in substandard public domain copies with poor sound and even poorer visual quality. I had a Region 2 VHS copy for years. It was all that was available for the longest time. The currently available download/streaming copies are just as bad. Sony Pictures, who own the Columbia Pictures library, have never released this one to home video. This Blu-Ray was issued by Imprint who specialize in collector's editions. It comes with two short features by film historians Alan K. Rode and Kim Newman plus a commentary track by Rode.


No doubt that this seems like a bargain. And I read the descriptions, all of the reviews etc. & I was just expecting a lot more color & some scent..at least 10 of my bath bombs were solid white (a baking soda bomb??). The others were mostly yellow except for the 3 that were lavender with like 2 purple sprinkles on top.. So obviously I did not receive a wide variety of colors. But I knew it was a gamble. As far as the "scents"..not even sure exactly how to explain it - perhaps if there was a perfume that smelled of soap..? It just smells like baking soda with a perfume like cheap soap scent. Not a single 1 smells any different from the others. Even my 12 year old daughter wanted to order from Lush, Fortune Cookie Soap or BathHouse immediately. I gave the remaining 44 to my Mother in law. She is not really a soak in the bath type of lady, she does not order products like this & she said that they "seemed okay enough".. "just fine, nothing special" to her.
Oh well, now I know right. These are perfect for little girls. My daughter would've loved these when she was about 6-7 years old.
There are FAR to many lovely products on the market to waste money on products like this. I can use 1/2 of a Fortune Cookie Soap "Bath Melt" or "Bath Bomb" & not only do I smell wonderful all day & into the next morning but my entire bathroom, bedroom & hallway smell so good. I wasn't expecting that..really I wasn't. But I was expecting something..
To the people whom gave 5 Star reviews..order from FCS, BathHouse Soapery or LUSH just 1 time & see how it's done. Or go on Pinterest, look up a recipe & make them yourself at home bc it's truly not difficult, time consuming or expensive. My friend made some on a whim & they were smaller than these but they were better as far as scent, color, fizz & softening your skin as well. But Mr. Bubble makes bath bombs that give more color, scent & fizz than these..really they do, you can buy them at Walmart.com
Honestly..I should have returned these. Where's the scent?


This NeoCell Super Collagen product (French Vanilla flavor) came with an intact protective seal.
After I removed the seal, I smelled a nice slight vanilla flavor when I held it near my nose.

A convenient-to-use spoon is included (to get the spoon, I had to shift the powder around a bit, as the spoon was totally immersed in the powder, and not visible when I first removed the protective seal)

I added a spoon of the powder to 1- cup (via measuring cup) of plain water into a mug. I stirred and stirred. After about 1-2 minutes of somewhat vigorous stirring, the powder dissolved. I couldn't see any significant amounts of the powder remaining.  (see pictures).
The taste was somewhat bland, with a slight vanilla flavor.

I did the same thing; but this time, added 1/2 cup (via measuring cup) of plain water. The vanilla flavor was a bit stronger. I prefer this combination of 1 spoon of powder and 1/2 cup of water, just because I like to taste the vanilla flavor more.

I added a spoon of powder to my smoothie. Smoothie tasted fine.
I added a spoon of powder to my refrigerated orange juice. Juice tasted fine.

I prefer using this powder in a juice drink, rather than plain water.

I  have used it daily for 4 days; so far, I have not experienced side effects.

So I bought this Fine Powdered Charcoal because I have been seeing all the posts across social media about how charcoal can whiten your teeth, and Wow, it really does. I have noticed a big big difference in how white my teeth have become and this product is food grade. To be honest, this stuff is really messy. So the instructions say to wet the toothbrush and dip it into the powdered charcoal and brush your teeth. I tried this first and I did notice a slight difference in coloring. My biggest problem was the texture. I did not like having that powder in my mouth. It was so dry that it wasn't comfortable. So I decided to experiment with the charcoal and toothpaste. It is so much better. What I did was I took a tube of brand name  toothpaste which I had bought from Dollar Tree and combine that with a few tablespoons of charcoal. I tried to blend it as best I could and added a splash of mouthwash to smooth the texture. It turned out wonderful. I had my best friend try my experiment and I had him try the powder. We both agree that the experiment is more successful because it is the closest thing to actually brushing your teeth normally. it is still kinda messy so I would recommend to brush using the charcoal while in the shower. I typically use the charcoal first and then I go back over it with a regular toothpaste. Because the charcoal doesn't freshen your breath. Even my experiment doesn't freshen breath. The purpose of my experiment was to make the charcoal easier to brush with. Next topic is a charcoal face mask. This application of charcoal was kinda a bust because I don't think it worked. To make the mask, mix 2 teaspoons of charcoal with pure water /rose water/aloe gel to make a paste. Apply to face and let dry. Gently wash off. It had two optional ingredients which were coconut oil and honey. I tried it with just water and it didn't seems to do much. Worse of all, I couldn't get all of it off. So I had a dingy look for the rest of the day. Overall, I would recommend this product to any who was trying to whiten their teeth with out the huge bill.


This stuff is AWESOME!  For years, I've had symptoms of chronic UTI.  The only problem is that every time I go to the emergency room or the doctor, the test results always come back Negative or Inconclusive so I've always been given antibiotics regardless.  I got tired of that and decided to finally visit a Urologist hoping I'd be given a more conclusive answer.  Disappointedly, I did not.  He performed a physical test, a cystoscopy (OMG does that hurt!!!!!!) and finally, when he couldn't find anything, a CT scan (which is SUPER EXPENSIVE).  Not surprisingly, nothing was found.  So I decided to take matters into my own hands and gave this D-Mannose Powder a try.  I'm very glad I did.  It works very fast and lasts very long.  The most I've had to take it was 4 times in one day with my worst symptom (i.e. excruciating can't-think-of-anything-else-but-the-pain and want-to-rip-out-my-bladder pain).  It really works.  I've also tried Solaray CranActin but I find this works so much better and faster for me and don't have to even take it every day.  Of course, everyone is different so what works for me might not work as well for you BUT I definitely suggest you give it a try.  I usually drink it with plain ol' water and it doesn't taste like much; it kind of sweetens the water a bit, which I find pleasant because I hate drinking water.  As far as "curing" anything, I can't say.  I haven't been diagnosed with anything specifically but it has significantly lessened my discomforts and has certainly done much more work than the ER, Doc, and Urologist combined.

Another point is I purchased this product at my local Vit. Shoppe because I needed it immediately.  It was way more expensive in the store than through Amazon so I'll make sure to keep some in stock.


Guys. My butt is so happy. I'm not joking, I legitimately bought four different cushions to try to make sitting at my desk for hours on end less uncomfortable. I tried the Comfilife cushion that has awesome reviews, plus a wedge-shaped cushion and a cushion/back support combo. The Comfi-Life came close, but for me it still wasn't quite right. While it was made of memory foam, it was extremely firm. The tailbone support idea is nice in theory, and I can see how the cutout in the back would work well for someone with significant pain issues. At 5'1 and about 115 lbs, the Comfi-life wasn't right. It elevated me too much, and the cushion was so firm that the cutout in the back was very obvious. While it was a step up from no cushion at all, I did have to reposition myself frequently to stay comfortable, even after just a few minutes.

The Royal cushion by Purple was a totally different feel. While it has enough structure to support you, the rubber itself is soft. Unlike the Comfi-life, it doesn't matter how you sit on it. It's comfortable in any position, not too soft, not too hard, and very supportive. Mine came in perfect condition, and the cover fits perfectly. I do wish they had replacement covers in different materials and colors so you could match it with your decor. If you're in an office with a typical black desk chair, it probably doesn't matter. My mini home office is in my bedroom, so I try to make it look as nice as I can.

I paired the cushion with the Coop lumbar support pillow and a foam foot rest, and for me that was the perfect combination. While the other seat cushions weren't bad products, I think their comfort level depended on your height and weight. I would guess that the Purple cushion would work well for almost any body type. Before you buy it, do measure the chair you're going to use it in and compare it with the dimensions of different models. I can't attest to their customer service, but I love Purple's product.


I have tried many types of Magnesium. All pill forms. The Magnesium that helped me the most, and I still take is the Citrate before bed, HOWEVER Dr Dean's Remag is like a miracle drug.
I was experiencing horrible panic attacks and anxiety for over 3 years.
One of my Doctors told me that I had a lot of inflammation in my body and extremely low magnesium levels.  Which was a shock to me, because I was taking magnesium at the time my Doctor told me this, but what I was taking wasnt doing the job.
I'd already heard about Dr. Carolyn Dean and her liquid magnesium and figured it was like any other magnesium, but I am HAPPY and DELIGHTED to say that I was SO WRONG. This ReMag magnesium is a life saver, it has completely relieved me of my anxiety and took my horrible panic attacks from a 200 percent to 5 percent.
I love this stuff. LOVE IT!!
I put a few drops in my 32oz water bottle and sip on it through the day.  I will put about 2 or 3 drops in an 8oz glass of water in the morning and drink it down before leaving the house.
The ReMag has also helped with my Charlie horses that I would get randomly in the middle of the night. I haven't had ONE cramp or Charlie horse in my legs at all since taking the ReMag. It has helped with headaches, and I believe it has even helped with calming my mood. Things don't worry me as much as they use to, it has also helped calm down the iritis I had developed in 2014. I haven't needed to take the eye drops the eye doctor told me that I would need for the rest of my life in almost 4 years!!!! Of course not eating so much sugary and process foods helped, as well, but I know the ReMag contributed to bringing down the pain I was experiencing in my eyes.
There is no telling in what other ways this amazing product is working for my body, but I will always have it in my home.


[[VIDEOID:85e6f611432e4ff4eb89fbd331997dd7]] I have two pill organizers from BUG HULL - The 2 times a day Upgrade Version (UPC 631514679828) and 4 times a day (UPC 632202555882). This review compares the two products. View my video for details.
2X/DAY
- Very easy to open/close
- I like having the sides facing each other (as opposed to the previous version)
- Night and day sections can be removed from base to be used in two locations (separates by week)
- Cannot adjust start of the week (start day is Sunday)
- Not very portable
- Not practical to lift the entire item to pour out pills; makes more sense to pick pills out of container with fingers which might be a challenge for some
4X/DAY
- Not as easy to open/close; might be a challenge for someone with arthritis or other hand/finger issues
- Compartment lids get in the way when you’re trying to fill with all open
- Very portable
- Can easily arrange to start on preferred day
- Separates by day (each day can be removed)
- Easy to remove pills from compartment (just open the lid and flip over)
Both appear to be high quality, and I anticipate they will last quite a while. I found the Bug Hull customer service to be excellent. I prefer the various symbols used to delineate each pill time rather than more specific times like on other products (more versatile). If you think you will have trouble opening the 4x/day and you don’t need to worry about portability, I recommend the 2x/day for its easy opening/closing mechanism. You can always get 2 of these if you need 4x/day. However, if you need something that is portable, the 4x/day is perfect. Both of these have “large” compartments, which appear to hold 8 to 9 large capsules or a similar mix of large and small. I only fill about 1/3 of a compartment with my 3 capsules and 4 medium to small pills.


I was not, and will not, be compensated for this review!  These earplugs are the best I've found.  I use them while I'm sleeping because the people upstairs are loud and the floors offer very little noise reduction.  I have also used them while shooting at the range.  In both cases, they work much better than a similar 3M earplug.  These ones are much softer and keep their shape longer, while offering similar or slightly better noise reduction.  The foam expanding ones are stupid and take forever to expand to fit your ear canal.  These you just slide in, and they have a piece that extends out of your ear to make them easy to pull out.  The part sticking out of my ear does not affect or annoy me when sleeping on my side.

For any reviewers complaining that these don't completely eliminate noise... you do not understand the purpose of earplugs.  They are decibel rated and reduce noise by that level of decibel.  Most earplugs are rated between 20-32dbs.  These earplugs are rated at 32dbs, which means sounds will sound about 10-15 times quieter than without them (each 6-10dbs sound twice as loud to your brain... it's different when measured by equipment but numerous studies show the human brain perceives every 6-10dbs as twice as loud, look it up).  The only way to get true noise cancellation is via very expensive electronic noise cancellation headphones.

Also, for anyone with slightly larger ear canals, these work fine!  Mine are larger than most and I've bought some similarly shaped earplugs that wouldn't even touch my ear canal if held right in the center of my ear.  They aren't gigantic, but if you have to use the large set of pads that come with earbuds, these will fit you just fine.  They are also tapered, so they can fit smaller ears as well... my daughter can use them without any problem and she has to use the small pads that come with earbuds.


I've used the peppermint flavor of this spray for over a year now. There are almost no bad things to say about it.

A quick word about me: I'm a caffeine junkie. But I have to avoid coffee itself as well as carbonated sodas. So I look for other caffeine delivery methods and have tried most of them.

Each spray is about a third of a cup of coffee. To get the most out of it, I tend to take two sprays at a time: one under the tongue, one on the tongue. I let the spray sit in my mouth for a bit before swallowing. Mostly that's to increase the caffeine absorption, but it also helps my breath. I don't usually have halitosis (I hope!) but having nice tasting breath can't hurt.

The effects are pretty quick, usually within just a couple of minutes. It isn't an instant rush, and doesn't come on all at once. But the effect is noticeable and lasting. I don't recommend more than three sprays at a time before you get used to the effects or you might be bouncing off walls and arranging carpet fringe.

The only drawback to this is that the bottles are a bit flimsy and don't stand up to travel or pocket use. I keep one in my backpack for air travel and it will occasionally develop a very slow leak. The good part is that the spray doesn't seem to stain and it smells nice. The bad part is that everything in my backpack would smell like fresh peppermint. So I keep the bottle in a small plastic baggie when traveling (the "snack size" fits just fine). But this is well worth keeping in your pack - take a couple of sprays just before you land and you're ready for your destination!

Overall this is a great product, well worth buying. At the moment Amazon is selling these through Chemical Evolution and I LOVE this supplier. They often send me free samples of other products at no charge, and in a recent order actually included a hand-written note thanking me for my order!


I'm a fan of Saddleback Leather Co. products.  If you're familiar with their bags and other items, they are constructed of heavy full-grain leather.  As such, they need a good conditioner that penetrates deeply and delivers a healthy dose of lubrication to the fibers deep within' the material.  I find the best method is to just get a good handful and massage it in.  The benefit is twofold!  You treat the leather and your hands!

My XL sized briefcase from Saddleback has benefitted greatly from regular moisturization from Paul's Pail.  The ultra-thick and stiff panels have softened up nicely after successive treatments.  Paul's Pail penetrates almost immediately and deeply to give a marked difference in the feel of the leather afterward.  I have not had as much success with other treatments.  Saddleback recommends another brand to condition their products and after a couple of years of use of that product, I didn't feel that it was doing much of anything.  It almost felt as if it would dry the leather out.  Paul's Pail certainly doesn't give the leather a dried out feel.  After a couple of years of use of the other product, the bag never felt broken in.  I can't say enough of how quickly this product penetrates and leaves the leather feeling pliable.  Just after one application, the bag has acquired the broken-in feel that it should have for its age.

Another example:

I ordered a guitar strap from Saddleback.  In true Saddleback fashion, it's overbuilt.  That's a good thing.  I wrestled with getting the strap onto one of my guitars and then went to take it off to put on another to see how it would look.  To my horror.  I could not remove the strap.  The opening for the strap horn was too narrow to begin with, and then once on, refused to come off without possibly damaging the guitar itself.  Thinking about what to do, I grabbed my container of Paul's Pail and slathered it on the strap.  Within' twenty minutes, it had penetrated the leather fully and allowed the fibers to be stretched so the strap could safely be removed without incident.

Bottom line:  It works.  Use it.  You won't be disappointed.

I received this product at a discount in exchange for a clearly unbiased and honest review in terms of how this product performed.  The product’s rating was in no way affected by the fact that I received the product at a discount.  I test every product before reviewing.  My experience may not match every other reviewers but my experiences are what I base the reviews on.  If you felt I was helpful, please click yes below.  If not, please comment and offer suggestion on how I can improve my review for you

I got this product because who doesn't want to be better in bed?  Even as a 19 year old boy in my prime, having a little help does not hurt. In my experience, this product makes you last a lot longer.  The boost in confidence is noticeable, as well as increased bloodflow.  Reborn Labs pumps out quality products that I often use for my workouts because I am lifting and trying to get bigger muscles, and their products are working well for that so I trusted them when I bought this product too. I have to say, they have not let me down yet.  This product keeps you energized longer, and boosts libido significantly.  I am using this from the perspective of someone with no issues in that regard to start with, and it is still helping me perform better.  If you are someone who struggles with this sort of situation, I would definitely give it a shot.  It's only $20, so what's there to lose? It comes with 60 capsules, or enough for 30 separate days worth of taking this supplement.  That is literally less than 35 cents a tablet, so it really just depends what your performance means to you.  To me, it is worth that so I will continue to buy this product even without the discount I get as an honest reviewer.  This product is definitely worth it though and it has earned it's five out of five star review from me.


Braggs has been a life saver for me. I have had so many health issues with GERD and my lower LES its been a nightmare that I started to give up. Where to begin. 3 months ago I woke up with the feeling of a lump in my throat and the food started to get stuck and or feel like its getting stuck so I just overall let it go.

Well about a month after that the food still felt a little like it was getting stuck but this time I was having some difficulty breathing along with eating but NOW the food was coming back up every single time i ate or I would constantly throw up.

I had a scope done and was shown that my esophagus is perfect. Zero erosion no cancer but my stomach does not product enough Acid and my Lower LES malfunctions. The doctor basically put me on PPIs such as Prilosec, prevacid 24hr, Nexium but they never did anything except make me sicker then a dog all day long.

I started researching APV but made the wrong choice in brand. I thought you could use ANY shelf ACV so I tried it for weeks but all I got was extreme burning and zero results. I decided to give up then after awhile I started researching again. Then it hit me I was using the WRONG stuff. I went to the store and bought a bottle of Braggs and the very first day about an hour later after I drank 3 teaspoons with 8oz water I felt alot of relief. Still the food still backed up that day because lets face it, It was the first day.

Been using this stuff a good month and what relief. Zero backing up or throwing up, No heart burn, pooping regular. Im afraid to stop using it now in fear symptoms will return so basically this will be my new daily ritual for life.

I drink 3 teaspoon with 8oz x2 times per day. Maybe one day ill just go get LES surgery and fix the LES for good but thats costly in itself


I have spent years making homemade bread for my family and one of my most important tools has been a plastic dough scraper I got from a King Arthur seminar several years ago. Without explanation, my scraper simply disappeared without a trace and no one knows what happened to it (I think it got tossed in the trash by accident). I went about finding a replacement and after looking at a number of products I chose this one based on the price and the positive reviews. It has proven to be a good tool, a little different than my old scraper but still fine for my needs.

Instead of plastic, this one is stainless steel encased in silicone. There are a couple of important factors here. First, because of the silicone shell the scraping edge is soft and pliable. This is helpful for scraping around crevices and getting as much dough from a round plastic bowl as possible.  Because of the stainless steel inside, the whole is stiff though still slightly bendable which allows it to flex just enough to clean the bowl of my stand mixer without fatigue or permanently getting warped or bent. It is stiffer than my old plastic scraper, and while this is a positive thing it does require getting used to it.

Unlike my old plastic scraper, this one will work on a hot saucepan. That’s good news for when I am making candy and don’t want to wait for the syrup to cool and harden, requiring a lot more effort to remove. I did not find any statement regarding the temperature limit for this scraper but based on other silicone utensils I have it is probably safe up to around 400 degrees F.

And...silicone is more non-stick than plastic so clean-up is a little easier. It was never bad with with my plastic scraper, but it did require a bit more effort than this new scraper just because of the nature of the materials of each.

I’m very pleased with this scraper. It meets the need I had and it is better than my old plastic scraper that I used for years. It works well, it can be used on hot or cold cookware and it is very easy to clean. It’s reasonably priced too. Based on my experience, this is a very easy product to recommend.


So first off...my review is not BOGUS and I was not paid either. I have wanted the Nuface for a while now and I just couldn't see spending anywhere from $179 (QVC) to $400 (Nordstrom's) depending on device size and 'stuff' that come with it.

First off...you NEED to do research on the Nuface type devices and understand realistically what it does. There are some great resources from Allure/Cosmo/etc that did great articles on how to use this device and why you want it in your anti-aging arsenal. There are also a few *mature* youtubers that have done some great reviews on the Nuface device.

This device to me is a *dupe* of the Nuface microcurrent toning device.  The device out of the package is pretty self explanatory and really doesn't need directions. You charge it with the charger provided or with an Android phone charger type. Then you press the middle button and the lights will light up showing you the intensity of the current. Because the directions are in a foreign language - I am assuming the intensity goes from left to right.

IF YOU PURCHASED THIS ITEM AND PUT IT DIRECTLY ON YOUR FACE WITHOUT A CONDUCTIVE GEL...YES YOU WON'T FEEL ANYTHING OR HAVE ANY RESULTS. You have to use something on your face to help conduct the current (I use Spectra Electrode Gel). You can also use something as simple as Aloe vera gel. Putting this on your face before starting the treatment also allows for the device to glide across your face seamlessly. It periodically beeps to let you know to move on to another area of your face and then shuts down *possibly* after a 3 min treatment. I looked up the Nuface face diagram treatment areas and went off that.

This is great and I have only used this for 2 weeks and I felt like my cheeks looked more sculpted. I have not used it consistently enough to have a picture to show but I plan to update this review in 2 months with my thoughts!!! I would suggest this to anyone on the fence about purchasing the Nuface....I would try out this one first to see if you can commit before buying the real deal. This might even be the same for less!!! LOVE IT


[[VIDEOID:20086cae61cb87de2dfa6dfbd8e11101]] I really wish I would have started with a set like this when I started essential oils. I was really overwhelmed at first and between getting all of the different oils that were necessary for what I wanted to do and being able to figure out the titrations and mixtures that you should put together, what not to put together, what is actually toxic after a certain toast, there's really a ton of information that you need to know before you do start working with essential oils. This is a fantastic starter kit. It has 6 different blends of essential oils to get a common use out of them. Each has three or more essential oils within them and they are pure and highly concentrated so you will still need to dilute these oils. I use different carrier oils when using them for body placement, but my favorite is using fractionated coconut oil.
 Of all of the blends, I have to say my favorite would have to be the bedtime blend and I've used it everyday since I got it just because I absolutely love it. I have not been able to accomplish that blend that well yet so its nice already have it done for me. in the video I explained what each oil does and what it has in it, and I will just list quickly the names in the set.  This set comes with a good night blend, a stress relief blend, a muscle relief blend,a health shield blend, a breathe blend, a head ease blend and a health shield blend. They contain .33 floz or 10mL of oil and are highly concentrated theraputic blends. The bottles are a dark glass with a twist top and drop titrator underneath the cap. It's a great set and I highly recommend it. I do want to mention that each oil blend was sealed separately within the box, I had just already used all of them so that wrapping wasn't in my video.
I received this essential oil set for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.


This silicone bath body brush works much like the dozens of other similar products that have shown up recently.  It's all one piece silicone, even the handles are silicone and there is no metal frame that I can tell.  The whole thing is very flexible and can be folded and rolled up.  The biggest advantage of the all-silicone material is that it doesn't really get moldy if you leave it in your shower, like a wooden back-scrubbing brush will.

One side of the brush has silicone bristles and the other side has rounded bumps.  I didn't really find the bumps to be useful, but the bristles work for cleaning your back.  If you are using a body wash liquid soap, it helps if you lather it up in your hands briefly before applying it to the bristles.  If you apply the body wash directly to the silicone bristles, you can work it up into a lather, but it takes more effort.  You cannot really work up a lather on the bumpy side.  From there you just hold onto the grips and use it to scrub your back.  It works and it's easy to use.

As part of the package, you receive two adhesive hooks.  The hooks have a thin transparent plastic square of plastic with adhesive on the back, and a metal hook is embedded into front-side of that that plastic square.  I was able to affix the plastic hook to the tile in my shower and it has remained in place for over 3 weeks now.  It supports the entire weight of the silicone scrub brush.  However, after just 3 weeks the tiny metal hook is rusted and corroded beyond belief.  The rust bits get all over the handle of the silicone brush too.  Give it another 3 weeks and I bet the metal part of the hook falls apart due to corrosion.  If you buy this, don't bother using those hooks.  They're useless.

In conclusion, this inexpensive silicone scrub brush makes it easy to clean your back with body wash.  However, you're probably only going to use the bristle side, and you shouldn't use the included hooks.  It's fine for the price. If you buy it, though, i suggest you buy a 3M shower hook that is all-plastic and won't rust.


I used Beach Body Pre-Work for a number of years, the E&E (Energy & Endurance); which for some reason now they have discontinued use and put this product in its place. I thought I was getting an even better one, since it was HIGHER in cost. I tried it for 3 days, thinking I would get a new result, but Yet, here were the results:

1. Burned the roof of my throat
2. Immediately had a needle, tingling feeling, like pricking my face, arms
3. Upset stomach
4. loss of focus and stamina, instead of having focus & stamina! I had to lie down to recover so I didn't feel my best going to work out.
5. It is a yellow-satiny, fine power dry type mixture. Will stain your fingers, clothes if get's on it! This was not like this with E&E. That looked like cool-aid w/ sugar grains. This is TOTALLY a fine type of substance.

I have no idea what BB did to the formula; but WHY! I have taken the TIME to return it for my money back. So disappointed at BB. I have now Purchased ION GLOW (GNC) tastes WAAYYYY better! and works with my skin and nails and DOES NOT give all the above feeling. I was always afraid of switching, but now having this experience has helped me to find a very healthy version of PRE-WORKOUT formula that tastes really good an give me the stamina and results I need to push through Bob Harper's Kettle Bell Ball Workout for 40 mins and even into the evening with just 2 scoops in 5 ounces of water. And I think I found out that BB added "Beta-Alanine 800mg, which a nutritionist stated might have caused that reaction. But anyway, it was horrible and NOT LIKE THE ORIGINAL E&E. Don't know who you're trying to compete with, BB, but you've lost a loyal customer. At least I don't have to Wait on an order now, I can go right to GNC and find the ION GLOW. And women, you just get that specific kind, b/c I think even ION products may have the Beta-Alanine, but the GLOW has very little, so you don't even notice it.

A truthful reviewer,

Disclaimer: Maty's in no way states or implies that this vapor rub is meant to be applied inside the nostrils, and this might not work for everyone.  But for the past couple of years, I've had a debilitating sensitive nerve in one spot way up inside my left nostril.  When the air is cold and dry, this area of my nose becomes scabby and unbearably ticklish, causing me to sneeze uncontrollably, my eyes to water, and my nose to run non-stop.  It got to the point that, if I cooked dinner on the stove, the onions, garlic and/or spices I used would inevitably irritate that one nostril, leading me to feel sick for days after.  While doing research about this issue online, one commenter made mention that he found Vicks Vapor Rub to work wonders at alleviating the irritation.  I don't like using products with petroleum jelly in them, especially in a place like inside the nose, so I started searching for a more natural alternative.  I've been applying Maty's with a q-tip inside my nostrils off-and-on for a few weeks now whenever the flair up occurs, and it has been a life saver!  I don't know if it's the mint having a numbing effect, if it's the oils moisturizing my nose, or a mix of both, but I could kiss that commenter for recommending Vicks, and I could high-five Maty for creating a natural version. If you have dryness or other nasal problems brought on by allergies, cold dry weather, or a cold, you might give this a try.  It's very soothing, there's no burn or other negative reactions to the product, and the wintergreen scent is relaxing.  If you're nervous about applying it inside the nose, I suggest rubbing it directly under the nose.  My dad used to put Vicks under my nose when I had coughing attacks caused by colds, and as strong as the mint in Maty's is, I'm sure it'd be just as effective.


I was looking for a daily-dose pill container that was large enough to hold a week’s worth of pills, but small enough fit in a handbag or shaving (dopp) kit bag, and I found it with this one. I am fortunate enough to only need once daily pills, but I still have to take several a day. Other pill containers that fit the “portable” criteria were too small to hold my days-worth of medicine; anyone who takes vitamins or other supplements knows those pills can be “horse pill” huge. If you look at my pictures, I easily fit 12 large pills in one compartment and 62!! smaller pills in one.(I have coins in two of the compartments and an ink pen in one picture in hopes it helps visualize the overall container size.) The other problem I have with the small pill containers is I can’t reach into the compartment and remove the pills because, well, I have these stubby fat fingers.  So I would open the compartment lid and dump the pills into my hand, and inevitably one pill would get stuck, I’d shake the container, drop several I had been holding, and often had to chase down a dog that thought he wanted that dropped pill. The other nice thing about this container is the lids gently pop open when you depress the adjoining tab.  I was worried the lids would fly open, and send pills flying, but no-it is just a nice feature -you can just leave the container sitting on your counter or table and just push the tab to open the day’s meds. I will be honest in telling you this pill container was sent as a replacement for one I had purchased that had 2 lids that wouldn’t stay closed. I contacted the seller and they responded immediately with apologies and a note that another would be sent right out to me –and it was. The seller didn’t even suggest I needed to return the defective one, just wanted to know whether it was caused from shipping or from manufacturing. I did get this pill container at a discounted price in exchange for an honest review, but I will definitely pay full price to get more so I can fill 4wks worth of pills and get rid of the bulky prescription bottles.


This is one of the only blends that doesn't upset my stomach. There is another brand I purchase because when I'm in a pinch and am not doing a THM bulk order. The other brand I've noticed gives me an upset stomach (but I use it anyway for some yummy treats because it's not super bad but there is some upset).
I would love if this was made here in the U.S. though. I know they said they know the growers and such but it would be nice. Here is their reply about it being grown in China:
Yes, our Super Sweet blend is made from non GMO erythritol and our Organic Pure Stevia Extract Powder which is grown and processed in China.
Here is an excerpt from an article recently published by Trim Healthy Mama on the this subject:
"Serene's husband Sam recently returned from his second trip to where our Stevia is grown, harvested dried then extracted. While many companies are hush-hush about where they get their Stevia from (which in the world of Stevia is either from South America or China), we're so excited and proud of our source that we'll have a soon to be released documentary about it. There are many myths about the processing of Stevia, mostly put out by scare tactic bloggers who have never been to the countries where this plant is grown and extracted! So much of the speculation about processing is hearsay not fact. We want to show you the beautiful organic farms, the gentle processing methods used and some of the incredible landscape in this part of the country that has been dedicated to organic farming. We truly feel like God blessed us with the gift of being able to partner with organic farming communities who have been using the same growing methods for centuries without use of pesticides or other toxins.
People often get worried when they hear that a product comes from China. We felt the same way until we were able to send members from our own THM team to visit, not once but twice. They've been able to get to know the farmers and their families more and film the extraction from leaf to powder. Just like there are good and bad practices here in the United States, we've discovered that is the case in every country"

I will purchase again.

is it good or bad?
I'll make the provider/author
either happy or sad...........
and sometimes even mad.

One of my earliest memories is going with my Father to visit Grandpa.  The reason that I remember those trips so vividly is that Dad would always take an electric drill with us on those visits.  It turned out that the purpose of those visits was to grind down Grandpa's thick toenails.  I was still too young to understand that the human body often provides us with some surprises, but now I've developed a few of those thick toenails myself.  In addition it appears that Grandpa is responsible for my thick nasal hair and fast-growing long hairs that grow both inside my ears and on my ear lobes.  Three cheers for Grandpa!!!

Fortunately most of my toenails are normal and don't require extra attention, but up until now it was a real project to keep the affected ones trimmed and under control.  Previously I was somewhat successful using a special set of heavy duty clippers that have long handles for leverage, but the results were often raggedy and unattractive.  So being offered this set of clippers for testing and review was a welcome and timely circumstance.  These BeautyMe Nail & Toenail clippers appear to be extremely well-made and durable.  The handles are long and ergonomic and the blades are curved and extremely sharp.  The vendor describes these as "Premium Quality-Surgical Grade, and I have no reason to doubt them.

The combination of the long handles (for leverage), strong spring (for strength), and extremely sharp curved blades makes for an effective and precise set of clippers.  They work like a charm on my thick toenails.  The one caution I will give you is to be extremely careful to avoid having the blades cut your skin when using them.  Toes tend to be very sensitive and bleed quite a bit.

NOTE:  If you hit the "MORE" button under "About the Product" on the Amazon product page you will see two erroneous references to their Blackhead Remover Kit.  Perhaps the company should review and change that verbage.


As a person who suffers from migraines on a regular basis, I am always looking for something that will give me even a tiny bit of comfort or relief. Most of the time, my migraines last only an hour or two, but I had one a few days ago that seriously put me completely out of commission for about five hours.
I was okay to go about my routine and I dealt with the pain for about an hour. I spent the second hour sitting on the couch trying to relax. By the third hour, the slightest bit of light or sound made me want to curl up in a ball and die. I handed my toddler off to her teenage brother, swallowed  couple of migraine pills, grabbed my earplugs and my new mask for sleeping and took off to the bedroom, locking the door behind me. I climbed into bed, hid under the blankets and took a three hour nap.
The Sleep Eye Mask was great. I didn't even feel that I was wearing it. In fact, I was a little startled when I woke up because I couldn't see! I really like the fact that it doesn't get caught in my hair and stayed put the whole time I was sleeping. I normally toss and turn as I sleep and expected it to at least slide down, but it did not. I also really like the fact that it covers my ears as well as my eyes, blocking out some of the sound as well as ALL of the light. It's very soft and comfortable and I immediately fell in love with it!
After closely examining the stitching, I can tell that it's very well made and will last a long time, which is very important to me. This is truly a great product and I was so thankful to have it a few days ago. It is exactly as the seller described and did the job that I was really hoping it would do. This is the best sleep mask I have ever owned!
I received this product for free or at a highly discounted rate in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. All statements made are 100% of my own based on my personal experiences with this product.


Pro's & Con's:

I am comparing this with the [[ASIN:B000RZPL0M MedCenter (70265) 31 Day Pill Organizer with Reminder System]].  I am a transplant recipient, so I really, really need a monthly pill case that is going to work for me.  I cannot mess around--I take about 16 pills in the am and about 12 at night every day.  My survival and that of my transplant depend on me getting my meds right, and consistent.  I previously have used the 70265 31 Day Pill Organizer for the last several years, but it was getting a little old, so I tried to mix things up.  Here is how they compare:

Pro's:  This one is much more compact
  All of my pills fit in there (barely!) and 16 pills is a lot!
  Nice pill splitter & pill crusher, though I currently don't need it--still nice to have
  Does not take up much space on a counter and very lightweight when full
  Daily pill cases open easily
  MUCH less expensive than the other one

Con's:  The pill cases are much smaller than the other one-- makes it precarious to fit all pills
  Filling each pill case is a bit hard, because the individual day cases do NOT stand up by themselves, unlike the picture
  Bottom is uneven and angled, so case wobbles and falls over unless leaned against something
  Looks in the picture like it is a lazy susan you can spin, but it is not
  Lids are so loose that I am worried they will pop open on their own--one did so while empty the first day (see picture)

I've attached several photos so you can see for yourself.  If you look at the bottom left hand side of the last picture, you can see where one of the boxes popped open by itself just sitting in the carrier.  It was empty, but that would suck if it does that when it is full of pills.  Overall, I like this one, but if I had it to do over again, I'd try a different one or re-buy the larger box.


I'll be up front: I never heard of this stuff before stumbling on it while browsing Amazon. I was intrigued, and decided to give it a shot as I own a large...."water pipe" (16" tall beaker style with an ice catcher).
So after almost a month, here are my thoughts.
 1)These beads expand A LOT once they absorb the water! The package I received was enough to fill two 1 liter bottles once they achieved full size, so unless you have a lot of glassware to fill, hydrate a pinch of the beads.
2)Despite what people say,  DO NOT FREEZE these beads! Freezing the beads will destroy them, so keep that in mind. You can throw them in the freezer for a few minutes to chill them, but don't forget them. I would suggest storing them in the fridge if you want to keep cold ones handy.
3)These are NOT a replacement for water, they simply can't filter the way water does. They do diffuse the smoke, but the point of water is a smoother hit through filtration, not diffusion. Diffusion helps filtration, however.
4)When used WITH water, these beads are great! These beads are noticeably cooler than room temp, and when in water, they will actually chill the water! It's not ice cold by any means, but it definitely makes a difference! They also help diffuse the smoke in the water so you get a smother draw!
5)They DO help keep the glass clean. My glass is used heavily, and gets a large buildup of resin (and ash) at the water line. It has to be cleaned every few weeks to get rid of the buildup before it becomes too much. These beads have prevented that buildup, instead I can just change the water and rinse one a week! They don't CLEAN the "pipe", but they do prevent the buildup.
6)They look cool! I wish I could find some in a deep colors, rather than the pastels I see from everyone, but even so it adds some color to my clear glass!
7) I have reused the beads several times just by rinsing and replacing the water. You can dehydrate them after use and rehydrate when you need again, also.
  TL;DR- Cool beads get huge, great with water, makes the glass look cool and clean(er)!


This little round sound machine stands upright on two legs and takes up very little space on a desk, a nightstand, or in a piece of luggage. It is 3 1/2 inches in diameter and about 1 3/4 inches deep. It has a USB charger, and once charged, will run as a stand alone machine. You could run it plugged in if you lay it on its face or tilted it on it's side, but the charger provided will not plug into the upright machine because the legs sit too low for that. It's quite stable both on its side and on its face, though, so it's not a major deal. The operation of the sound machine is super easy. Hold the power button for three seconds to turn it on (or off), turn the front dial to choose one of six sounds (brook, thunder, white noise, wave, wind, or bonfire). Use the + and - buttons to adjust the volume, and use the button with the picture of a light bulb to turn the night light function on. The choices are one light, three lights, or six lights, and the fourth push of that button turns the night light off. The lights fade in and out in as if they are "breathing." The night light, even with all six lights on, is not actually bright enough to function like a night light in the traditional sense--even in total darkness, it does not light up the surroundings enough to be able to see anything except the lights themselves. I think it's purpose is more to give something rhythmic to focus on while falling asleep. The sound machine can be left on continuously, or you can set a timer for increments of 20 minutes ranging from 20-120 minutes. when setting the timer, the number of lit lights, 1-6, multiplied by 20 lets you know what length of time you've set. For a basic, easy to use, lightweight, portable, stand alone sound machine that can be used at home, at work, or while traveling, this little sound machine fits the bill perfectly. 5 stars.


I have been in the market for a long time for a yoga mat cleaner that meets all my requirements: not full of toxic ingredients that will hurt my skin, pleasant smelling (or even unscented), inexpensive, long-lasting, and something that actually works! This checked off each of them. The ingredient list is short, and I recognize the names of all the ingredients (I use some of them on a regular basis too), not to mention that there are only 9 of them in this mat cleaner. None are toxic, and all the ingredients are natural. I ordered the sweet rose scent, and it is has a light and pleasant aroma. I have tried other cleaners with little to no success lifting much of the dirt on my mat, and there were some stains that frankly I didn't think would lift. I sprayed those areas liberally, left the cleaner to soak in for 5 minutes, came back to wipe it down with the microfiber towel... and a lot of the stains lifted right up! I didn't expect them to be completely gone, as I have had my yoga mat for about 5 years now, but it looks much newer than it did before. I didn't have to scrub very much and the remaining ones are a lot lighter! I hate feeling like I have to deep clean my mat, and a decent mat cleaning spray shouldn't take so much energy to efficiently use. The cleaner doesn't leave my mat sticky or slimy, and I love that not only is the scent pleasant, I can also tell that it isn't full of harsh chemicals. I have very sensitive skin, and have had no reaction to the product after using it for a couple months. If I had any pets or children I wouldn't be paranoid about this cleaner being in their reach (obviously I wouldn't want them eating it, but I wouldn't have to worry about it damaging their skin or anything else it came in contact with if it were accidentally sprayed). A yoga mat cleaner should be able to contact your skin directly without discomfort, because your skin contacts the mat it cleans directly, and this one has my vote!


This is a great pillow and much more than a pillow, it is therapy!! It is constructed really well..very high quality and really beautiful. I was really amazed. I noticed the first time using it that it makes you relaxed, calm. It allows you to fall asleep in a very relaxed state. My greatest benefit is: I suffer with chronic migraine disease; Since I have received and have been using this pillow, the incidence of migraines has reduced by about 80%!! This at a time when they had been particularly bad. Now, I'm not saying everyone with migraine will get the same results, but this is what I am experiencing. The pillow is a little different to get use to. You really have to work with it and try placing your head in different positions on it to get the right and most comfortable position for you. The great thing about it is that you can actually remove the covering and place it on a pillow of your choice if you can't adjust to the pillow it comes with. This is a great advantage. Personally I found that placing my head high up on the pillow is most comfortable for me and as an advantage the pillow also fully covers my neck and shoulder blades (scapula). This is helpful as I have had major disc surgery in my neck and I notice my neck feeling very relaxed when laying on the pillow. The pillow as a therapy is based on solid science. Negative ions are great !! If you are going to get this pillow it's a great idea to do a little research on the net and read about the health benefits of negative ion therapy, also read about what the crystals in this pillow do, what their vibrations are about, what crystal therapy and energy and vibrational healing are all about. It is very interesting and we are learning so much today about alternative and complimentary health care, especially related to energy healing modalities. Energy healing is the coming new Frontier in medicine and health care and those of us who study and embrace it certainly know why.  I highly recommend this pillow as a therapeutic modality. Again, you must take time to get use to it. It's not like sleeping on a traditional, soft pillow, but the therapeutic benefits are well worth the time it takes to get use to using it. Hope this review helps.

I like the idea of putting together my own blend of supplements rather than buying the "all in one" types. I try and limit my caffeine intake, especially if I am going to the gym late and have to work in the morning. I have had no issues with this product. It is good to go. I received this item at a discount price in exchange for an honest review.

Product details below:
L-Ornithine is a nonprotein amino acid and plays a intermediate role in the urea cycle in which the ornithine to a cell is the rate limit of the cycle. Ornithine is not used in the creation of proteins as many other amino acids, however, it's function is characterised by reducing the ammonia concentrations in the blood and increasing urea. Ornithine's function begins with binding to a molecule called carbamoyl phosphate which uses ammonia to be produced and then is converted into L-Citrulline, which gives off urea as a byproduct. The creation of Citrulline is said to put the urea cycle in overdrive, allowing it to suck up more ammonia (composed of nitrogen molecules) which are produced by working muscles. This in combination reduces the fatigue caused by muscles at the source. This trigers the effect of arginine conversion into nitric oxide (NO).† The increase in arginine in the blood leads to increased NO production, the increase of NO increases blood flow during exercise and allows for muscles to perform for longer while under duress, which gives weightlifters the ability to produce bigger muscle pumps. Thus, giving Ornithine the ability to help with increasing muscle endurance and reducing muscle fatigue. The added bonus of Alpha-Ketoglutarate (AKG) gives Ornithine increased absorption and performance in the body for usage. Ornithine is believed to stay in the body for longer durations and helps greatly in reducing ammonia levels in the blood, making it a excellent choice for workouts exceeding 45 minutes as this will allow for improved muscle fatgiue reduction long after completion of muscle activity.


I thought this would be a great addition to the bedroom for my husband and I. This includes 4 batteries, however when I put one battery in the ring worked. It can work with one battery however I think 2 batteries make this item work better, with one it seems to get loose from the housing and you have to adjust it to work again. With 2 it stays secured through all of the fun time. Be aware that the batteries go super fast if you leave them in the ring. Be sure to take them out after each use or else the next time you go to use it, probably will not work or be slow.

This is simple to use once you know how to use it. Comes with really no instructions on what to do or how things work. First the white plastic top that is covering the bullet comes off. It twists and locks in place, remember that when you are trying to open it. Otherwise it will just stay there or worse you can break it if you do not twist. Insert two batteries, you will have to work with them to see which way to put them in. Close the cap and twist, there are grooves that guide the cap in so be sure to line up correctly. Now this part is important because THERE IS AN ON AND OFF SWITCH! The white rubber cap is able to push in to turn on and push again to turn off. There are a few adjustments that need to be made to this. The size of the bullet is one, it is so large that it is uncomfortable, it pushes into you while your partner is wearing it. I found it to be distracting! The on and off switch is another one, its near the edge which 90% of the time during an intimate moment, it kept be pushed 'off' with each movement. It was very annoying. It is really a very sensitive button as well, sort of like there might be a bad connection, because it flickers on and off if you tap the battery housing. The other thing is that the rabbit itself is lacking, its big in the wrong areas and small in the ones necessary. The whole ring itself is bulky and the rabbit just does not hit the right spots without being uncomfortable.

I received mine at a discounted price, however that in no way affects my review


Wow. Usually when you purchase a product that is not from a big name company, the issue seems to be that it is lacking in quality and power. This is the exact opposite of that. This prodcut, the Shiatsu Neck And Back Massager - FitPlus Shiatsu Neck Massager Pillow With 4 Heated KNeading Nodes 2 Year Warranty Car Chair Back Massager Pillow, is probably one of the most, if not the most, powerful massage products I have ever owned.
Now I would not exactly call this a pillow. It is a hard material, and a very well constructed one at that. It contains four roller points, and each one of them delivers a little slice of heaven and relieve to a tired and aching back.
The hard pillow type object has a strap on the back of it so that you can firmly affix it to the back of the chair you are sitting on. This is a very nice feature especially if you are trying to aim for your upper back. For me, it sits perfectly just at my shoulder blades, but you can adjusted to the height on your back that you are trying to make feel better. The unit itself is pretty lightweight and therefore easy enough to adjust, even while it is on.
It came with both AC and DC adapters. I have a massaging seat topper in my car already, so I use this at home at night when I come home from work. Besides, I really feel like this is too powerful of a massage function to be used in the car. It's much more invasive than your average vibrating seat topper. Perhaps if a passenger wanted to use it, that would be one thing, but this unit certainly should not be used while driving.
I have read other people's reviews, and I think it is important to mention that my unit had seemingly no smell at all and the heat function did not bother me at all and it heated very nice and gradually. The heat function seemed to intensify the massage feature, but I think that's a matter of personal preference.
I did receive this product at a discounted rate in exchange for my honest review. This in no way altered my opinion of this awesome product.


These light bulbs were NOT packaged properly and one of them (ordered two as required replacements for the Northern Light Lamp) was broken. While I realize this is the fault of amazon warehouse procedures as I later learned from amazon customer service, I still had to spend MY time to pack both of the light bulbs AND get instructions from amazon and then had to PRINT out the return address label as well as an invoice from amazon. Then I had to take the package to an UPS Store and send it back to amazon. Northern Light needs to be very clear about the very fragile nature of their light bulbs so customers are not inconvenienced and disappointed as I was, and have their products packed with much more care. Secondly, amazon did not want to credit my account for the light bulbs but the customer svc rep. (whose words I could barely understand) said they would send me replacement bulbs instead. I took the package to UPS and got a tracking number/receipt. When the other 2 light bulbs arrived in about 4 days, we installed them into the Northern Technology Lamp and both of them flickered constantly and never provided full light. Evidently they were Defective. So I had to contact amazon cust svc AGAIN and repeat the process to send light bulbs back for a Refund (credit). When amazon sent me an email with the credit, it only gave me my refund for 1 light bulb! Back to the phone with amazon cust svc! This time at least I could understand what she said to me. Oops! Amazon made an error and she said she would have another credit refunded. To this day, two weeks later, I still have not received an email from amazon with the credit/refund on it! I am really at my wits end and when I receive my credit card statement, there had better be 2 credits for the full amount of those defective light bulbs or I will dispute the charges that amazon has made on my credit card. I don't have the time or energy to deal with amazon customer svc!
  By the way, those light bulbs cost almost $30 each! I was able to purchase a New Lamp from another company for $80! That is only $20. more than those 2 light bulbs.
 In the future, I am going to be much more careful about buying things from amazon. Not a happy customer of amazon. Better to deal with the company directly.


Just wanted to place a review so it may benefit others who may need readers while using PPE's for whatever reason. I bought a pair of DeWalt antifog goggles to use  while working in the hospital. The reason being we are seeing more and more people with respiratory issues and we are implementing stricter precautions. Prior to this I use using simple reader bifocal safety glasses which would fog up when using an N95 or simple mask. As an RN i chart a lot on a computer, which is a light prescription then my reading glasses, so I came up with the idea of making a tri-focal goggle to be able to use during my ling shifts. I trimmed my computer prescription down placed those just below eye level and then placed my reading prescription under that. I used a dry-erase marker to look in the mirror and centered it on my pupil at the 2 different angles I would be using when using a computer and when I would be reading close up. It took a little tweaking here and there but I am very happy with the results. The cost is a little more then I would like to pay, but it is a lot cheaper then custom goggles from an optometrist and a lot faster. To me the prescriptions seem about 0.25 off. If I had to do it over again I would get 0.25 stronger then my normal prescriptions. I have worn them around the house for about 3 hours and so far so good. when walking around the top is clear and I don't get any blurriness from the computer lens, this is due to my placement, you will have to experiment to get it just right. The cool thing is when the lens is wet and being placed it stays in place, but can be moved easily until it dries. Also the lenses can be removed and cleaned and replaced on another set of glasses or goggles.The inside of my goggles should stay clean so I don't plan on cleaning the inside that often. If I have to take the lenses off and clean the inside I will have to re-measure with the dry erase marker method to place them back in the right place.<br />I will update this review once I have worn them for a few full shifts. I hope this helps anyone out there who uses reader glasses and is in either Healthcare or any work environment where you need to wear eye protection.


First off let me start by saying I have never tried any other vitamin supplement before this product. I had heard about the product many times on the Alex Jones Show, saw how his reporter Aaron Dykes lost a lot of weight on the product, and had a few of my internet pals (fellow Alex Jones listeners) tell me great things about the product. I've been on the vitamins since February of this and I can confirm, without exercising, to loosing at least fifteen pounds and feeling a lot better. I first started taking this at the end of winter, I had a really bad cold that was kicking my butt. As soon as my first canister arrived I took about two times the recommended dosage and within half an hour my really bad cold, sneezing, drips disappeared and I felt awake and alert.

I have been able to eat less while on the multivitamins, to be fair in conjunction with taking Tangy Tangerine I have also made a huge change in my diet. I don't eat out much any more, I cook a lot at home and eat mainly organic produce and filler free meat. I also stopped drinking all soda. I'm sure that factored a lot into my weight loss as well :). It is true that for most, unless you're in the hundred pound weight range, the canister won't last you a month. I have been getting an average of two and half to a little over three weeks depending if I take four scoops a day or five. I don't know where soo many people are coming up with only five to ten days out of one canister. You all know it's only one scoop per hundred pounds for twelve hours right? Just checking...

Anyway the only bad thing I can say is I wish it had a bit more powder in the canister for the money so it would last a month for those of us who weigh approximately two hundred pounds. There are other liquid and powder multivitamins out there but Tangy works, and it works well. It does detoxify your body and (at least myself) helps my bowels by digesting my food a lot faster. It's a great product just not quiet enough of it for the money. One last thing, I saw someone say they can't get the information on what's in it unless they buy the product. All the vitamin contents are on Youngevity's web page.


This will be my fourth brand of marine collagen that I've tried. I'm looking to improve the health of my skin and hair which are very dry, and hoping to find some relief from my joint pain due to arthritis. So far with some of the powdered marine collagens that I've tried, I've experienced faster hair and nail growth but not much else.
I am still testing out this Nuton Collagen Peptide so I can't say how well it has been working just yet. I've only had it for four days now. I can say that it does not have a bad odor nor a harsh flavor. It dissolves easily and quickly into my morning tea. I don't even need to stir it!
According to the description, this is type 1 collagen from wild-caught Pacific Ocean Paddock and Red Snapper from a sustainable and traceable supply chain. I think Nuton also offers beef collagen but I do not eat cow so I've only tried marine collagen.
As of now, the reason I knock off one star is because of how small the container is. This container is 5oz and approximately 13 servings which doesn't even get you through half a month. But, I know that this brand of collagen is fairly new so I'm wondering if the company plans to offer this supplement in a larger tub in the future once they receive feedback or sales begin to increase. That's just my guess and if I end up loving this powder, I'll be begging them to make a larger tub with at least a month's worth because I drink marine collagen everyday. It often takes a while for my body to notice benefits from new supplements so hopefully I'll be able to fully assess how this new brand does by the end of 13 days. I'll be sure to update if I notice any big pros or cons.
I also want to say that I was in contact with the company before and after I made my purchase and they are really nice to do business with. They are prompt and courteous and they let me know that they are a small, family business and that this is a new brand of collagen. It makes me happy to help out a new, small business.
