I received this product for free when I attended an Arbonne party. While I never actually used this myself, my boyfriend was suffering from very sore muscles in his shoulders/upper back area. I applied this gel over his sore area and almost immediately he started to feel a burning/tingly sensation. He did say that the sensation was a bit intense, but he felt that it was effective.
When he got in the shower later that night it was almost as if the gel made his skin more sensitive to warm water. Overall, I think he would use this gel again, but I probably wouldn't purchase a new tube.

I purchased a bottle of this from our local Walmart. I had just received a diffuser I ordered on eBay and was excited to try it out with an essential oil. I have heard many good things about Lavender oil and was wanting to try it mainly for helping me to relax at bedtime. The first night I used it in my diffuser I put way to many drops, so the scent was a bit overwhelming for me; so a little goes a long way. I ended up turning off my diffuser.
The next time I used it I only put a couple drops in and it wasn't overwhelming but did cause a slight irritation in my nose. I tend to be super sensitive to certain scents; it causes an unpleasant burning in my nose, which then leads to a headache.
I love the smell of lavender and was hoping that it would give me a nice sense of calm...I will use it in my diffuser from time to time; I just won't use very much. I gave 5 starts for both the value and quality. I won't be able to use much of this product due to irritation in my nose, but I would recommend this lavender oil to others.

After a co-worker told me about Coconut Oil and its benefits and uses, I decided to buy a jar. I was pretty pleased!! I used it to fry up some chicken and fresh veggies. I wasn't really a big fan of the slight taste of coconut on my chicken..but I think it's something I could get used to. I did however, love the taste of coconut in a batch of muffins that I baked. It made the muffins super moist!!
I used it for oil pulling for my teeth. You use about a tablespoon of coconut oil in your mouth and swish it around for 10-20 minutes. Apparently, it pulls out all the bacteria/dirt and it whitens your teeth. I did notice an improvement in how my gums felt and it did whiten my teeth.
I also used it in my hair at night. I would scoop out a nice bit of coconut oil and rub it together in my hands. I would then apply the oil throughout my hair, especially on the ends and then put my hair in a bun overnight. I have to avoid placing it on my scalp directly because for some reason it caused a slight irritation. Rinse it out with shampoo in the morning :)
Coconut oil did not like my face...it made my face feel super smooth, but it clogged my pores and I did have a slight reaction. Little tiny, red, itchy pimple-like bumps.

I have been purchasing Cosmo magazines for years!!! I believe I started reading them when I was an early teen..I am 29 now. I don't purchase them as often as I used to, but I did buy one last week. I always did enjoy reading Cosmo. I love reading the interview with the celeb/person that is featured on the cover for that months' issue. Most of the articles I find rather interesting. I find Cosmo usually puts off a humorous tone throughout the magazine, which I really enjoy. Cosmo includes a lot of fun features like horoscopes, quizzes, trending products, etc. The only thing I don't enjoy is the "photo shoot" portion on the magazine...I never really liked high-end fashion and find most of the clothes the model is wearing to be something that I would never wear unless I were walking a runway myself haha Overall, great magazine to read! -

I recently just finished a bottle of these chewable tablets. I always buy vitamins from the Jamieson brand. Usually I take C, A and B12 daily. I was so pleased with how I felt after taking these Vitamin C tablets. I swear that they prevented me from getting a cold. Even though everyone around me was sick from the cold, I still didn't get sick. I also love the citrus taste!! After a meal I usually chew a couple to satisfy my sweet tooth :) -

I absolutely love these little packs of fruit snacks!! We buy them at Costco for my daughter to bring to school. Honestly, I think I eat way more packs than she does. They are fat and gluten free and contain vitamins C, A & E. When I go to work, sometimes I throw a few packs in my purse hehe -
Love this wine!!!! Just the right amount of sweetness and a little bit of "fizz"; which is exactly how I like my white wines!!! I think it's a very reasonable price for the quality. I really enjoy any Barefoot wines.

I purchased this about a month ago and it did not disappoint!! It's honestly better than some of the high-end mascaras that I have tried. It has very minimal clumping and the curved wand makes it pretty easy to apply. I usually do two coats to achieve the look I like; I apply the first coat and let it dry before applying another layer. It last all day long and is very easy to remove! -

I've tried many different moisturizers in my days and after I ran out of my last moisturizer (Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel) I wanted to try another one that provides a bit more moisturizing. The night I purchased this Garnier product, I went home washed my face (CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser), applied my toner (Pixi Glow Tonic) and then I applied this fabulous gel/cream. Holy crap..wow!! Nothing but amazing!! My skin looked and felt like a million dollars. Honestly, a little goes a long ways. It's only been a few days since I started using this product and my skin hasn't looked better!! I will definitely recommend this to friends/family. I do have combo skin, so it works perfectly for me. It hydrates without leaving my skin looking and feeling oily. Perfect under makeup, but I do wait a few minutes for it to sink in before applying makeup. Amazing...if you haven't tried it and is looking for a new moisturizer to try... get this one! -

I was super excited to try this product!! I've always had trouble with my combination skin and during the winter months my face tends to be more on the dry/flaky side. So I seen an ad on tv this one day and I thought...wow, gotta try this. The first time I applied it I was amazed. I loved the consistency; the gel-like feel. My skin fely super soft and it didn't feel greasy at all, which is a plus for my sometimes oily skin. It works great under makeup because it dries in very quickly and provides for a great base. The only reason I didn't give this five stars was because on my drier areas I had to re-apply more product. Sometimes I even had to put a little bit of a heavier moisturizer on those couple spots. Despite that minor issue, I loved this moisturizer. I literally scrapped every little bit out of the jar. -
