PiperWai is a natural deodorant. It is amazing! I've been on the search for a natural deodorant that works. This is it. I will never buy another deodorant again. I've even tried making my own and nothing compares to this. This is an active charcoal based deodorant with a lot of other natural ingredients in it. The way it works is it changes the PH under your armpit to stop the smell. It does not completely stop you from sweating but it eliminated 100% of the smell. I have my teen son and my husband also hooked on PiperWai. My husband and teen usually smell awful, and we have found with traditional deodorants they make us smell worse. It is a bit pricey at $12 a jar, a jar is supposed to last 2-3 months with daily wear. Only a pea size amount is needed to keep you smell free for 24 hours. I can't say enough good things about this product. I found this product when the girls that invented it went on Shark Tank. I bought it that same day to try it and I'm super glad I did. I recommended everyone try it! It's that good!! Goes on smooth and doesn't stain. It's awesome! -

I was given a large size bag to try recently from a friend. My intention was to stuff it full of my son's stuffed animals. I love the idea of these bags for space saving but I was not impressed with the bag itself. I made sure that everything was stuffed below the fill line. I vacuumed out all the air like the instructions said to do so. It was nice watching all the air get sucked out and seeing how much less space this would take. I could fit 6 of these in place of the 1 garbage bag I had full of the stuffies. Within about 10 minutes my bag was not flat anymore. Somehow air got back into the bag and it no longer was flat. I tried multiple times with different amounts of stuffies in it each time. Each and every time I tried, within minutes the air was back in the bag. I assume there was a hole in the bag somewhere from manufacturing it. It was not tampered with in anyway and came from the box it was bought in. Maybe it was just a faulty bag, maybe they all suck. I know I wont be buying them to try just in case. -

The good: Has a nice smell overall. Goes on smooth and easy. Definitely keeps you dry for 48 hours like it claims. The Bad: Even though it smells nice, it's a bit strong for me for a deodorant. As soon as I opened the box that's all you could smell. I prefer a less smelling deodorant. Didn't matter how I moved, me and everyone around me could smell my armpits :P Not that it's a bad thing to have that smell, I guess it's better than the alternative. I found it to take a while to dry. Maybe I put too much on, but I found I had to flap my hands under my pits to dry them. Took longer than I would of hoped, not super annoying, but I couldn't put it on and just go about my day, my armpits were slimy and wet unless I took the time to dry them thoroughly. I find this to be true for all gel deodorants though, so not necessarily this brands fault. The ugly: On the days that I didn't wear any deodorant, I smelled worse than before. I have found this to be true for some deodorants depending on what chemicals are in it. I assume it's my body trying to detoxify what I just slathered on them. I am not one to wear it daily, so it was a bit of a disappointment that I have to wear this everyday or I smell really bad. It goes away after about a week if I just stop wearing it all together, but that's usually a sign for me that the deodorant has some chemicals in it that I shouldn't be putting on my armpits. I have use the solid form of this brand before and don't recall having this issue, so I think it must be a gel deodorant problem. Overall it's a good deodorant, but I don't care for the gel. I'll stick to solid from now on. -

Once again secret you live up to your claims! Secret Clinical antiperspirant gel has kept me dry and smelling nice in anything I do, including exercising. It smells amazing, dries quickly and doesn't leave white marks. Even 48 hours later I smell great and I'm still dry. I've tried other secret gel products before and I didn't really care for them. I have to say this is one of the great ones out there. The smell wasn't too over powering at all. I would pick the soild up next to try that vs the gel. The gel is cold some mornings going onto my armpits now that winter is approaching. I've told many people about this product and I will buy it next time I need some. I love the packaging, it makes it stand out against other similar products. Well done Secret! -

The consistency of the Herbal Essences Moisture Naked collection conditioner is out of this world! It is super thick and goes a long way. It's not too often that you come across a conditioner that is thick and almost gel like consistency. It stays in place and spreads through your hair like butter. One of the things that I don't like is the smell of this line. Because of the mint it smells very medicinal. Makes me nauseous the first little bit after using it. For a more natural conditioner I really like how this makes my hair feel. I typically only wash my hair with conditioner and I try to find "natural" conditioner. Even though this line has a lot of chemicals and things taken out of it, if the goal is to make the line "natural" eventually there are some ingredients that need to be removed from the product. It is only marketed as "naked" though so as long as you realize it's not a full natural product then I would recommend to those that don't care about that. It has made my hair very shiny and smooth. I really enjoy using this conditioner and I will continue to use it. I have not had a chance yet to see what the cost of this product is yet in stores, but as long as the price point isn't too far off of other ones I buy this would be my first choice for now just based on how thick and great of coverage it has in my long hair. I hope the smell get's changed eventually, the mint smell to it reminds me of sick people -

I had the opportunity to try Full Lash Bloom by Covergirl LashBlast. Their claim is your lashes will be touchable soft and flexible. My verdict is it's a win in my books overall. My lashes were definitely softer and more flexible than other mascara's I've tried. It was light weight and went on smooth. I don't care for the brush much, but I think after time I could get used to it. The brush for this one is very round and bulky. I'm used to a skinnier brush. I managed to poke it in my eyes repeatedly at first because of how bubbly the wand is. I decided to sleep with it on to see how well it stands up there. I very seldom sleep with makeup on but I wanted to make sure I put it through all the tests. There was very little flaking with this one. Even if I rub my eyes I didn't get any flaking. Anything that did come off came off more like a gel like ball instead of a hard crusty flake. I did not have raccoon eyes upon waking like I normally would with other mascaras. It still looked just as good as it did the night before. It washed off on par with others. I don't think it's labeled as waterproof but I would say there is something in it that makes it more like a waterproof mascara vs a normal one. I wouldn't say it's completely waterproof but it has way more water resistance than a non waterproof mascara. For me that's a great thing, with allergies my eyes can water time to time and I haven't had to worry about my mascara running. My picture is of a bare makeup face with just mascara on. This is what I would consider 1 coat. Has great coverage. I will buy this one again. I think I just found my new favorite mascara. I definitely love that my lases are soft to the touch and don't feel like there is any product on them -
