I LOVED this product as a teenager when my skin was tougher and more oily. I used it almost every day and it got rid of and kept away the bumpy skin and clogged pores I used to struggle with. I didn't always rub it in but would use it more like a mask most times unless I needed the deep exfoliation. I had great skin until my late teens when I had to switch to different products for acne.
Now that I am starting to experience more dry and fragile skin, I can only use it occasionally and have opted for chemical peel products, but it's still my go-to for a scrub when I need one. I also use it on my legs sometimes to deal with blocked follicles. It's still super cheap so if your skin can handle it, it's a great product for the price.

I am on a tight budget but still like having fun with my hair. For a while, I stopped as I was trying to save money... but I decided to try Inebyra Ice Cream hair dye this past year after previously only buying more expensive salon brands. I am so happy with this product; it looks multi-tonal and shiny, not matte and flat like I've had from some box dyes in the past and NO hot orange roots. I have tried 3 different variations and they all turned out beautiful. The tones make it easy to touch up roots as it blends out well and I haven't had any colour banding (even with my inexpert application lol).
I have VERY stubborn yet fine dark, dark brown hair so I use 30 Volume dye for the full 40 minutes. I do about 10 minutes to refresh the ends. I was able to get at least three levels of lift and a LOT of beautiful tones. It left my hair feeling soft, not damaged looking at all. I used "Dark Blonde Mahogany" this time. Most of the red tone lasts for about 6 weeks and doesn't come out and stain my pillowcase like some brands I've tried.
It's sold at Shoppers Drug Mart and is extremely affordable. I only need 1/4 tube to dye my roots and touch up my ends.
The only "con" is that I find you have to really mix it well with the developer as it is a bit lumpy at first.

I have the unfortunate combination of sensitive skin and coarse hair. I have never been able to use shaving foam as it makes me break out in itchy, sore rashes. But shaving dry is irritating and doesn't leave a smooth leg. This razor let me skip the foams and creams and save time and money - one step products are the best for busy moms. My legs feel SO soft after I shave now and I have no irritation. Most moisturizing strips also give me rashy legs - not this one.
It glides easily over the knees but doesn't slip either, and the handle is comfortable to hold. I have never, ever cut myself with this razor even when I'm in a rush. I think it would be a great choice for young teens just learning or anyone who has hand mobility issues.
The ONLY negative I can say is that I have to shave a *little* more often than with some razors, but that is a fair trade for having no irritation. I also find it a bit tricky to use under my arms so I use a separate cheapie razor for that.
It lasts quite a while too (depending how comfortable you are with re-using razors) and even when the moisturizing strip wears down, it still works well.
