i was actually excited to get picked to test this for the simple fact that i have always believed that these dont work and are always very expensive to buy and try... the smell wasnt bad it was citrus with mabe a hint of floral but more citrus, the texture was a smooth gel and it went on smooth and sunk into the skin really fast, i dont think it really gets rid of cellulite but it smooths out your skin and or tightens it to make it appear as if the cellulite has gone which i guess is a good thing especially if your wanting to show your body off without the appearance of cellulite, i would try to make the bottle last as long as possible as the price is a bit steep but if you dont care about the price and want something to smooth your skin out then i would recommend you at least try it once in your life and see what it can do for you :) -

ok so i have wavey curly hair and people like me know that you can get really frizzy especially in the winter time ,and gel , mousse can leave your hair hard and sticky at times and i cant stand that i sometimes follow my friend into a hair place here in montreal called mama africa they carry hair products for all ethnicities and this product was pointed out to me, i have very fine blonde hair and sometimes products can make my hair look dark or rough not this product i did complain about the price when i first got it thinking my gosh what did i just buy but when i tried it i fell in love with it and had to share it with everyone
you need a pin drop in your hand and apply it when your hair is still damp (thats what i prefer) and just work it into your hair not only does it seperate your curls and keep them none frizzy it really moisturizes your hair at the same time and you barely have to put a drop in and it lasts all day long and your hair smells like you had your hair done at the salon and it keeps everything healthy and the other best thing about it is no one knows you have hair product in your hair its so light and it doesnt show it just looks natural like it should,
The MoroccanOil Intense Curl Cream, 10.2 fl. oz. 300 ml, has impressive anti-oxidants and intensive hydration capabilities. This breakthrough styling product is used to enhance and define curly hair.
•Made from Argan oil
•Conditions and hydrates hair
•Enhances and defines curls
Directions:
Rub a small amount between palms, run through hair and style as usual.
Moroccanoil has developed a unique, ultra light, non-greasy formula that seals in shine producing silky perfection for all hair types. Moroccanoil combines traditional methods with contemporary needs and technology. It revitalizes hair and brings new opportunities to stylists and salons. For centuries Argan oil has traditionally been used by women in Morocco to treat hair and nails in order to counteract the effects of the hot climate and aging. The Argan tree only grows in an area of South West Morocco called Argana. It flourishes in the desert-like conditions and produces lush fruits much like olives yet larger and rounder. Inside the fruit grows a large nut that houses up to three almond-shape kernels which are the source of the miraculous oil.
Argan oil contains unsaturated fatty acids and is rich in tocopherols (Tocopherol, known as vitamin E, describes a series of organic compounds consisting of a methylated phenols. The various derivatives are also vitamin E. Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant.) which works like vitamin E (nature s most powerful antioxidant agent). Argan oil naturally renews cell structure and always consistently restores shines to dull lifeless hair.

this is actually the first time ive tried a dove anti-perspirant the one i`m using is wilde rose at first i was a little nervouse because the scent was very strong at first but was surprised that it wasnt so bad lol
what i really like about the product is the aluminum content bieng in the 14% instead of other brands having it in the 22% i think less is best :) ... it went on really smooth it really does glide on like a gel just minus the wetness and it lasts all day, so i have to say way to go dove, nice product.

first i have to say they presented the lotion to us in a lovely gift box so thank you :)
i only had to apply a drop of the lotion and it worked wonders my hands and arms felt so silky smooth,
it makes your skin feel like a baby, the only thing i have to say that i really didnt like was the scent....
even though i put just a drop on, the scent that lingered on me was aweful it was as if i walked into the perfume section of the mall and got sprayed by 10 different ladies all at once, if you dont like smelling like a perfume bottle or are very sensitive to perfumes and scents then i would wait to see if they come up with an unscented version or at least one that is more natural than perfumey, but i do have admit it makes your skin feel amazing..... but please vaseline come up with a different scent or unscented version
as well for those who are sensitive.

my pick for a flavor is chocolate these shakes actually do taste great ive tried some others meant for diabetics and they tasted horrible glucerna actually tastes like your drinking a chocolate milkshake or pudding, the price is a bit hefty at $25 for a case of 12 but it does wonders to keep your levels and health just right here are some specs..
Glucerna is a great-tasting, convenient meal replacement or snack for people with diabetes. Below is a list of features of Glucerna when used as part of a healthy lifestyle that includes diet, exercise, and medical treatment (if applicable).
Features
Great taste
Convenient presentations
Slow-release carbohydrate system
Low-SFA, high-MUFA* formulation
Complete, balanced nutrition
Gluten- and lactose-free
Low-glycemic index: 26 ( Glycemic Index tool)
Key to Glucerna products is their unique blends of slowly digested carbohydrates. "Slowly digested" means that sugar is not immediately broken down and absorbed into the blood, which helps avoid peaks in blood sugar. Consistently maintaining optimal blood sugar levels over time can help reduce the complications of diabetes.
Contains 26 essential vitamins and minerals
Kosher
Fat blend
Supplemented with 1.9 g of fiber and 1.13 g of FOS‡ in each 250 mL serving
Glucerna contains a modified fat blend high in monounsaturated fat. The Canadian Diabetes Association recommends consuming monounsaturated fat instead of saturated fats more often.1
How does Glucerna work?
Diabetes is a disease in which the body is not able to use nutrients normally. This results in high levels of glucose in the blood, which can damage tissues and cells. To control glucose levels, people with diabetes must usually follow a healthy diet (among other management techniques), but it's not always easy.
Clinical studies show that the slowly digested carbohydrate system in Glucerna provides more consistent blood glucose levels when compared to a standard medical nutritional liquid.2 The fat blend (high MUFA, low SFA)* is consistent with dietary recommendations. The complete range of vitamins and minerals supports overall good health. And Glucerna Nutritional Drink is available in a range of flavors for a convenient meal replacement or snack.
How is Glucerna different from other products?
Glucerna provides a unique, slowly digested carbohydrate system specially designed for people with diabetes. Its effectiveness in providing more consistent blood glucose levels when compared to a standard medical nutritional liquid2 has been demonstrated in clinical studies. The macro nutrient profile (carbohydrate, fat, and protein) in Glucerna is consistent with dietary recommendations. It contains a high-MUFA, low-SFA* fat blend. And the convenient choice of liquid in a range of flavors supports compliance with a healthy diet.

so my hp called it quits on me and i had to replace it very fast as i`m working on a contract that requires music composition as well as making a website and producing a video ,so of course i needed a top notch laptop to get all of the above done
afetr checking out MANY laptops and testing them out i decided on the toshiba saellite not only was it attractive but it works fast for all that i need to do, the screen is a great size the colors are just amazing the touchpad barely requires you to touch it and the cursor just glides, and the big bonus was i have harmon kardon speakers that look like they should be in a car and they sound great :) my last laptop was navy blue and matte in color , the toshiba is black and high gloss and is just stunning although it can be a pain to clean because of all the fingerprint marks but its a small price to pay for a classy look that even my customers compliment me on, would i recommend it for sure i would but be prepared for the heavty price tag that came with it, for me the only downfall was working with windows vista 64 bit because products out there are still not compatible with the 64 bit as of yet not to mention none of my software or music programs worked with it so i had to change everything,

i was actually pretty impressed with these i love that they are not scented and they dont irritate me in any way and they stay in place thank goodness lol my only quam with it is i do get a very heavy flow and was not able to wear these overnight so what i had to do is wear these when my period is almost finishing instead of during the heavy flow because i had to keep changing them too often but everyone`s flow is different would i recommend these yup for sure i think everyone should at least try them once -

its funny the same day i got these in the mail i just started my perion so what can i say... great
i liked how flexible they are but of course you would only where these in the begining stage of your period when you are spotting :) i also liked that they were unscented i find these days everything is coming with this potent scent on them and even a doctor would tell you nothing perfumey is good ...down there..lol
i also loved the fact that they were wrap around and not just wing because i can actually say they stayed in place would i reccomend these... yes a little pack goes a long way.

this is the second of the flavors that i have tried and i have to say it wasnt bad
it did taste like cream cheese mixed with coco but after awhile the flavor of the cheescake gets a little drowned out and its just like your eating chocolate and vanilla ice cream, but it was light and creamy not sickening like some can get, if it had more of a cream cheese taste it would have been a perfect 10 for me
