Simple, non flavored yogurt drink, that is it! Trust me, you`ll get over that `but this tastes like watered down sour cream` First start believing in that it is good for you and in time you`ll really enjoy it. Compliments meat and is a great way of getting refreshed during hot summer days. I will not go on and on about its nutritional benefits do your homework, read it a little bit but more over try it. Great for your skin, wonderful for your bowel and way healthier than carbonated drinks. -
Aquafina Purified Drinking Water

LOL, it was funny to see that `water` was not even categorized or maybe I couldn`t find it??? I don`t know but what I know is, it is the most essential or maybe vital drink. And when you not just drink it but love it then comes being picky about the taste :) Aquafina, by far is the best bottled water. It makes me wanna drink more! And I am not alone in this. I thought I was exaggerating it till Mr.E said `God, this water is so good, it makes you keep drinking it` It is pricey and where I live at, I could not yet see those big ones that you can put on a dispenser.
Anyways, if you are continuously being told that you have to drink more water but you just don`t have the habit or maybe you don`t like the way water tastes, try Aquafina.

This coffee is manufactured at only one place in the whole world! That place is Trieste, Italy. We got addicted to this coffee over there, in Italy. The standard espresso or cappuccino is way better than many parts of the world at almost any location in Italy. Go to a very small, tiny bar (in Italy bars are places that serve coffee) at a god-forgotten place I promise you that the coffee you`ll have there will taste way better than what you can have here at a high end restaurant or those famous coffee chains. Well. anyways, one day we stopped on the road to have some coffee and we were served the best cappuccino in the world! The taste was so smooth yet full, did not have a sour after taste, we were at coffee haven! We went inside to pay and saw that they were serving this brand, Illy. Since that day we are buying Illy Coffee. We have one of those stove top Moka makers too. For the Moka maker go buy Illy Moka but if you have an espresso machine choose the Illy Espresso. For both, we prefer the medium roast and whoever comes to our house gets impressed with the coffee they have :) Some can say that it is pricey but you know, you get what you`ve paid for! Oh, and if you don`t know about them yet, Illy has amazing mug, coffee cup collections. For the investors, buy one now and sell it on the internet for BIG bucks :) But to be honest, this brand has become an obsession for us. We simply LOVE it! -

Go buy this product and make sure you use it every day. This is so sincerely what I feel about this product. Have been buying it for almost 5 years. One tube lasts a crazy good amount of time. Even if I spend all day outside under the sun, my face doesn`t get a sunburn or sun spots. When I cleanse it at nights, I see the whole city on my cotton pad :)) No need to say further, this product proves itself worthy buying at all levels. -

We all go and buy vitamins and try to eat healthy. But when our body can not process it right doesn`t matter what you take in. Before reading a lot about probiotics (I also talked to doctors) I kept going and buying this vitamin that mineral too. To be honest I was hardly seeing any difference with my overall health, the only difference it made was my budget!
During the time that I was living overseas, for almost a year I had Yakult everyday and it worked really good. It was helping me big time with my IBS and I wasn`t having a lot of trouble after meals :)
I know Yakult is also sold here in the States but I wanted to go for something a little better knowing that I had more choices. I went to Sprouts and by the help of a very nice, knowledgeable girl working at the vitamin section, I did end up with buying RAW Probiotics. The one I bought has 85 billion live cultures and 32 probiotic strains. This one has no binders, fillers or carriers either. I was lucky that day cause this product was on sale, if it wasn`t I don`t think I would go and pay 50$. However, it has been two weeks that I have been using it and I don`t feel bloated after meals and meanwhile my husband got some virus from someone at work and was sick for almost a week, I had very very slight symptoms and got over it almost in a day! This is something that probiotics promote. Your immune system gets stronger and you get over things pretty quick. Well at least this is how it has been working for me. Long story short this product seems to be the real thing and if you are ok to use these type of supplements give this one a try. Oh and don`t forget try finding stores that gives you coupons or offers price cuts on this brand. I wish I was able to convince my hubby for taking these too, he freaks out every time he sees that `live cultures` statement on the box, lol :)

This is interesting. I have used the regular one before and liked it. Cannot say `loved it` because I already have long lashes and what I only expected out of this product was a fuller, voluminousness look. Well, kinda sorta it did look good whenever I put it on but nothing out of ordinary, it worked just like any other mascara. Just a couple of weeks ago, I wanted buy something waterproof and again got moved by that seducing term `million lashes` and chose this product. It makes my lashes stick and does not create a defined look :( Spend money on something again that I had to giveaway to one of my best friends. I chose `you betcha` because Loreal normally makes great mascaras. There should be a mid choice in this `do you recommend it section. -
Dove Visible Care Toning Body Wash
I love it! Even my husband loves it. It smells great and leaves your body feeling so soft and looking touchable :) It is a bit pricey but it also works as a room deodorizer for us! Our whole bathroom smells great!

Bought at least 10 different shades of this Insta-Dri but every time it failed to be a good nail polish! The reason why I kept buying it was because of its price. The shades I liked were always on sale and I said `well, let me give it a try again`. As much as I love Sally Hansen, this product is a complete failure :(
Yeah it dries so fast that it starts drying on the brush while you are struggling to apply it! And even worse it ends up looking uneven. I will not get this even if I happen to see it is for free!

I have the full package which makes me a great consumer for all the cosmetic brands :)) Falling hair, acne prone skin and hard to grow, brittle nails! Nice, huh?
Ok, again during the past years I spent at least 200$ on this nail growth and that miracle products. The first time I came across this one was at least 6-7 years ago thanks to a pharmacist`s recommendation. However, she told me a way of applying this treatment that not even the product tells you to do so. Here how it goes, you clean your nails, apply one coat and for a week you keep applying it every other two days WITHOUT removing the previous one. After a week, you remove the product completely and start all over again following the same pattern.
I know it sounds different, but when you are consistent within two weeks the nails grow so strong and you end up having long nails!! At least that`s what happened with me.
Long story short, after trying this and that in between I found my self going back to this product. I gave four stars to quality cause my only complaint is it turns into a glue like substance before you even see the end of the bottle where all the other nail polishes and treatments look still ok?

I have every girls` dream, falling hair!!?? When the situation is this, you go after almost every product on the market you can afford. Again, thanks to tv, I saw the commercial for this product and bought it the day after from a chain store.
I`ve been using it over a month and the product in the bottle is about to finish. I have not yet experienced a great difference with the amount of hair I loose on daily day basis. (by the way, being a conscious person I have all the blood work done, there is nothing wrong , doctors I have seen said it is due to past stress which show up later on through your hair etc. ) I kept using it cause it works as a nice leave-in conditioner and it smells great! Has this tropical, fruity perfume to it. Helps with fizzy hair and does not make my fine hair look greasy or something. After I finish the current shampoo I use, will buy the Fall Fight Shampoo to give this product another chance since they sound pretty confident with their product promising a crazy amount of strand to be save in a month??? Will see....
