She didn’t buy it..

My daughter had some skin problems on her face that started when she first went to Iraq. Nothing she tried would make it go away. She read some proactive reviews and decided to buy another product… not because of the reviews but because of the price.

She found something cheaper and it worked really well. Now her face is no longer red, dry and bumpy.. it’s clear and smooth. I don’t remember, off hand, exactly what it’s called but I do know it cost a lot less than the name brand stuff.

I’m so happy she got her skin problems (that the Army caused) cleared up and under control.

Clairol Natural Instincts Hair Color Review

The following is a review. I was not paid by or contacted by anyone to do this review. I bought the product, tried it and decided to do a review.

I got Clairol Natural Instincts hair color a few weeks ago and finally tried it out this morning and I’m not very impressed with it. There are 2 pluses for this product. It only takes 10 minutes and it doesn’t have that ammonia smell other hair color products have. My hair does feel nice and soft and it’s a little shinier.

The minus is that it didn’t change my hair color. My roots are still dark and the rest of my hair didn’t change colorwise. I got the same result as just washing my hair with shampoo infused with vitamins.

I will not use this product again nor do I recommend it.

Pledge Fabric Sweeper for Pet Hair – Review

pethairremoverThe following post is not a paid review. No one contacted me or offered to pay me for this review. I have a cat that leaves her fur all over everything and saw a commercial for it so I bought one to give it a try. These are my own words and honest review.

JoJo, our kitty, loves to lay on our bed. We don’t mind except for one thing… she leaves a lot of fur behind. Our comforter is dark blue and shows every little bit of fur. I was about to check into health insurance leads for JoJo for leaving so much fur around!

I saw a commercial for the Pledge Fabric Sweeper and decided to get one to try out. It’s a sealed unit that has 2 rollers with a grabber fabric on them. When the unit is full of pet hair you just toss it in the trash.

To use it you slide the sweeper from side to side in short strokes. On the first stroke the roller picks up the pet hair and on the second the other roller cleans off the first one and pushes the hair into the unit so that makes it self-cleaning. If you do happen to get a build up of pet hair on the rollers just roll it on a clean part of the furniture.. it won’t put the hair back on to the furniture either.

I have to tell you.. I’m really impressed with this. In less than 5 minutes I had a cat fur free comforter again. It was so easy to use.. it only takes light strokes.. you don’t have to push hard.

I comparison shopped before I bought it. In CVS it was $5.99 and at Shoprite it was $4.99 so I saved $1.00 by getting it at Shoprite. I will definitely buy another one of these when this one is full.

Oh.. you can tell when it’s full when it no longer picks up the pet hair.

Pictures below are before, after, a picture of the unit and a picture of the unit with JoJo’s fur in it.

Purex 3-in-1

dsc01760This isn’t one of those nuphedra reviews, it’s a review of a cool new all in one detergent, fabric softener and anti-static. It’s called Purex 3-in-1. I just bought it this morning at ShopRite. Hubby is allergic to some detergents so I got the hypo-allergenic version which is called Pure and Clean. They have 2 other scents – Spring Oasis and Tropical Escape.

This comes in a sheet and the bottom portion of the sheet is the detergent the top portion is the softener and anti-static. You put the sheet in the washer, along with the clothes, then when the washer is done you put the sheet into the dryer. You don’t need separate detergent & softener. It’s a real money and time saver. I did a load of towels and they came out so clean and soft. I can’t wait to try this out on the rest of the laundry.

Inside of the package is a booklet of instructions, etc with a coupon for $1.00 off of any 2 Purex Complete 3-in-1 products.
