Burt's Bees Hand Salve

Too Greasy for everyday use

This product could be useful when hands are at their worst or prior to gardening/farming but for everyday use it is FAR too greasy and does not absorb into the skin quickly enough to do anything afterwards unless you want to leave greasy fingerprints everywhere. I am afraid I was disappointed.

Aveeno Continuous Protection Sunblock for Face

One to rely on

I usually use this product because it works well on skin that is sensitive and easily agitated and for a sunscreen it did just that. It did not irritate my skin and it protected me from burning as it was supposed to. This product is VERY reliable.

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 45

Because of this product summer was not a beast this year

I am very pale with sensitive skin, my skins have their father's olive complection and like to be outdoors. This was the first year I did not dread this season because of this product and the nice HIGH SPF's. i used the 70 and actually did not get very burned this summer. I am glad someone is noticing the needs of all.

Burt's Bees Coconut Foot Creme

Helps feet get out in the open again

This is a great product to use if your feet are dry, calloused and generally not presentable. This should be used with socks or something that can hold the moisturizing properties against your skin. It won't work if you put it on and immediately put on sandals. Your feet will slide right out of the sandals. But it does what it says it will do and works on feet that have lost hope.

Dove Creamy Cream Oil Body Wash

moisturizing but gloppy

This product is definitely moisturizing for the body but because of this "lotion/wash" property it is also hard to use. Too much generally comes out and easily slips out of your hand making your shower floor like a skating rink. Once you figure out how to control the amount being released from the container using this product is a much more enjoyable experience.

Tom's of Maine Natural Long-Lasting Deodorant Stick

Nice smell but sticky feel

I enjoyed the lavender fragrance but did not like the sticky feel. Also I have to admit I miss the antiperspirant properties as well.

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 45

Great product especially if you are at the beach

If you are looking for a sunscreen to moisturize this is not it, but it is great for using at the beach as it is dry enough to not make everything there stick to you. It goes on wet but dries almost immediately. Will purchase again.

Matrix Curl.life Shampoo

Not sure what they mean by Curl Life

Found it did not do that much for my curls and lacked in the moisturizing needs of my wavy coarse hair. Won't try again.

Clairol Nice 'n Easy Perfect 10

less time but less coverage

Took 10-15 but did not have long-lasting effect and did not sufficiently cover those "stubborn greys". Won't use again!

Clairol Nice 'n Easy Gray Solution

good coverage

This product does cover grey/white hair but it is a bit rough on the not grey/white ones. Make sure you have the suggested amount of grey before you use it.
