Living in a multi-cat household, litter is a big deal. We clean the litter box out daily, and sometimes find a bit of a smell as it gets close to changing time.
I was really impressed with Arm & Hammer Clump & Seal Complete odour Sealing Clumping Litter. The litter is very fine, almost sand like, but clumps up amazingly well for easy waste removal. It also stays in the box and doesn't form a "dust cloud" when moved around.
The main selling point thought has got to be the smell!!! We are talking just cleaned the house, fresh cleaned laundry on a nice spring day smell. FRESH FRESH FRESH!
Our litter box is in the basement and the second I start walking down the stairs I can smell the LOVELY fresh scent, despite the box being on the opposite side of the floor and around the corner. When I got right up to the box to clean it I STILL couldn't smell anything other than the lovely smell. Even weeks later, it is still amazing.
Unfortunately, having multiple cats and going through as much litter as we do, cost is the main factor we consider in our purchase. This 6.4kg box is only enough to do the initial litter and runs about $10. We normally buy a large box that is nearly 4 times as much litter for the same cost. This factor will stop me from buying this product unless it is on sale, I have a decent coupon, or perhaps on special occasions where I want to ensure a clean smelling house for my guests.

I was very excited to be selected as a tester of Crest 3D White Whitestrips Intensive Professional Effects by the Product Review Club, which was shipped to my door for free.
As a frequent drinker of things that are known to stain teeth (coffee, diet coke), I found myself with moderately yellow teeth. Even after a recently cleaning at the dentist and my continued use of whitening tooth paste I found my teeth lacking a certain sparkle and shine. Needless to say I was in need of some whitening.
I've whitened my teeth in the past (2-3 years ago) and found that faced with the options in the drugstore, I was only willing to pay for some of the lower end products and was given lower range results. I hoped to learn that the new Crest 3D White Whitestrips Intensive Professional Effects would be worth the cost.
The 7 day treatment was very easy to use. The strips peeled easily off the packaging and were applied to my teeth in seconds. One of the major benefits I found with these strips was the advance seal technology which I had never experienced before. Earlier incarnations of whitestrips would slip and slide off of my teeth forcing me to keep my lips off my teeth, mouth open uncomfortable for the length of the treatment. This time I could talk and close my mouth without any movement from the strips. While I didn't test the claims that water could be drank with the strips on I believe it; those things weren't budging.
After the 2 hour treatment time I peeled the strips of my teeth with little difficulty rinsed the remaining gel off my teeth and was done with day one. I've never had sensitive teeth, but shortly after removal I experience some slight pain on the front surface of my teeth. This pain didn't cause me to change any of my habits as I was still able to eat hard, hot, and cold foods and drinks without any additional discomfort. The pain only lasted for the first day and a half, and was very tolerable.
I began to see some slight change in colour after the 2 day. By the end of day 7 I was thrilled with the results. My teeth were several shades whiter and gave me a shiny sparkly smile!
A few minor complaints I will add: My teeth are not 'Hollywood' white after the treatment. The change in colour is definitely worth the effort, and maybe even the price, but I don't think it would cause anyone to complement me on my extremely white teeth. Also, there is a slight gradation of colour on my teeth now with the ends being most white and the gumline slightly more yellow. Again, not a major complaint as I believe I only noticed it since I was inspecting my teeth so closely.
I will keeping this product in mind the next time I need a smile boost. I would especially think this product would be useful for special occasions and will be recommending it to my friends as they prepare for their weddings.
I am very pleased with the final result of Crest 3D White Whitestrips Intensive Professional Effects and am proud to show off my new brighter, whiter smile.

The Revlon Crazy Shine To Go Nail Buffer is great thing in concept. A little two sided buffer that leaves nail extra shinny! Sounds good to me! However the results that are achieved are NOT worth the added cost of this product.
I tested the product on the bare nail of one hand, leaving the other untouched for comparison. After the first test (a little buffing then the shine applied) I could barely see a difference. While there was some shine visible, you cold really only notice it in direct light. Even in full sunshine I would say the difference between my normal nails and the treated nails was only noticeable if you knew to look.
Upon second test, I decided that I should put a bit more effort into the buffering step to insure as smooth a nail as possible. After some time buffing the nails, I applied the shine and the results were slightly better than before. My nails were visibly shiny, however they would not cause anyone to stop and say "wow, how did you get you nails so shinny?" I also had portions of my nails that looked damaged and white because the buffering had scratched on my nails.
In the end I would say there is really no reason to use this product again. Save you money and you time and buy a clear coat nail polish for faster, easier, more visible results.

I really enjoyed trying Dove Original Beauty Cream Bar as part of the Chick Advisor Beauty Review program. Having gotten used to liquid hand soaps and "fancy" shower gels as part of my cleansing routine I was a little hesitant about how my skin would react to a bar product. Luckily, I found myself pleasantly surprised. The soap took of the dirt from my skin and didn't leave it feeling at all dry. The only minor downside is that I did find the product to have a bit of a residue feeling despite claims that it would completely wash off.
All in all a good product!

I really enjoyed this product. My hair is often damaged feeling and lacks shine. After the first treatment i found my hair did a complete 360. My hair is shinny, soft, smooth and smells great. The product leaves my hair feeling so nice that I don't feel the need to add any styling products to my hair. I also found that the thick consistency of this product was helpful in keeping the product where I wanted it as compared to the often runny consistency of other similar products. This is definitely worth a try. -

I don't completely hate this product. At first I find that it leaves my hair craving moisture and is hard to spread throughout my hair. However, I do feel that my hair is softer, smoother, and shinier than normal. The only problem is that I am unsure if this can be attributed to the shampoo or associated repair masque. I must also mention that the reverse side of the label is horribly hard to read. -

This is a great ice cream option to quench those chocolate cravings! Breyer's Triple chocolate ice cream provides something for every chocolate lover with it's three flavour stripes of chocolate; white, milk, and dark. These awesome flavours in Breyer's smooth creamy ice cream makes this a can't miss ice cream option. My only complaint is that the seal on the pale isn't perfect and sometimes allows for frost build up on the top of the ice cream if it sits in the freezer too long. -
