This antacid has been a staple in my family's homes for as long as I can remember. My grandparents and in-laws swore by it if you had acid indigestion, a sore stomach, or heartburn. It is very simple to use, just add two teaspoons to an eight ounce glass of water. I prefer mine added to a cold glass of water. It tastes pleasant as it reminds me of drinking a glass of lemon sparkling water. -

I rediscovered this gem again after using it several years ago. I suffer from osteoarthritis and my knees and hands have been bothering me more than normal lately. You apply a thin layer on the affected area and it produces a warm tingling sensation which provides temporary relief. I have been using it more often now that winter is approaching quickly. It comes in a small jar but it does last quite a while. Some people may find the smell over-powering. -

I received a diffuser and Now Essential Oil 100% Orange as a gift recently. I put three or four drops of this essential oil in my diffuser and it smells like a fresh picked orange. I have found this to be extremely helpful in recent days when it gets dark out earlier and there has been very little sunshine outside.
What a great gift idea!

I like how it freshens your breath without leaving a strong after taste. This toothpaste is not over-powering like some other brands. It has a nice texture, fine and not chalky and heavy on your toothbrush. I did notice that this toothpaste has little foam, which I am not sure if this is a good thing.
Two critiques that I have are:
I really do not feel that it whitens as well as it claims to.
The tube of toothpaste does not last very long so I feel the price tag is too high.

My son received this mouthwash as a sample (full bottle) as he worked in the dentistry department of a downtown university. I enjoyed that it did not contain any alcohol, which is not something that I look for in a mouthwash. It is pleasant tasting, with little dry mouth after using it. This mouthwash does a decent job of freshening your breath. -

I have been using this eyebrow pencil over the past couple of weeks. I bought it in the shade 392 {light brunette). One end has a blending brush and the other end has an ultra fine tip pencil. It is easy to use and does stay on for the entire work day. If you happen to make a mistake, it is simple to correct it.
I find that this eyebrow pencil will not last long because it is ultra thin. I would prefer a thicker tip on my brow definer. I think that there will be another brow pencil on the market that is more to my liking within the same price point, or cheaper.

I do not know the full cost of one of these Maybelline The City Mini Palette but I picked one up on a discounted shelf for $3.25 which is probably a savings of ten dollars, if I had to guess.
The palette that I bought is Urban Jungle It contains two lid colors, two crease colors, one base color, and one eyeliner color. If you are looking for an eyeshadow palette with army green and gold colors that are bold and intense, then look no further. There is very little fall out when you apply these eyeshadows.
If you are planning on wearing an emerald green dress to a holiday gathering, or a New Years Eve party this eyeshadow palette would be perfect because it has a lot of gold shimmer in the colors.

I bought this Maybelline waterproof gel eye pencil in the shade Lustrous Sapphire. I purchased it on sale at Real Canadian Superstore for $2.75 which is an amazing price for such a great high intensity colored eyeliner. It makes my chestnut brown eyes pop! This gel pencil glides on so smoothly and is completely waterproof for up to at least sixteen hours of wear. I wore it to a funeral and it did not budge. It can be sharpened with any eye pencil sharpener on the market. -

I need to wear waterproof eyeliner because my eyes tear easily from sun and wintery wind. I love that this eyeliner is easy to locate at Shoppers Drug Mart and the Superstore. It is super simple to apply thin and thick lines with this Essence eyeliner. I found that the tube does dry out quickly, so what I do is use it once or twice a week, rather than every day. In addition, the tip of the applicator does tend to bend after continued use. I cut it to make it slightly smaller, and the problem was solved. During the summer months, you will need to reapply it as it is NOT REALLY WATERPROOF but water resistant. -

I bought these Milani lipsticks in the following two colors:
71 Matte Flirty- which is a raspberry color
73 Matte Love- which is the color of red wine
Both colors are perfect for fall and winter. These lipsticks come in a gold tube. They smell and taste like a hint of vanilla. When you are wearing these lipsticks, it feels like you are wearing a lip balm, keeping your lips soft and moist. I love that these lipsticks are highly pigmented. The one critique I have is that I wish that they would not disappear once you eat a meal.
