I hate overly greasy lotions even though I need it for my chapped hands. In winter, if I don't use lotion, my knuckles crack and bleed. This lotion is a lottle greasy, but not so greasy that things slip out of my hands. Doesn't have that yucky stale smell that some shea butter lotions have and regular, heavy, nightly applications keep my hands from getting too dry. I can't use it a work though, it's a little too greasy for that. I slather it on just before bed (don't touch your face!) to avoid bleeding hands

Most of these lotions smell like baked goods but not in bad way. Candy baby is very sweet, Slice of Heaven smells like freshly baked cake, Sttwberry Fizz smells like starwberry shortcake with strwberries on top! I like almost all the scents & settled on Strawberry Fizz. It's verry creamy & doesn't leave a greasy feel like some lotions. You can slather it on in handfuls and not knock someone over with the scent. That's part of the problem, though. The fragrance is practically gone in no time at all. It has no staying power. I thought it was just me, used to the smell. Husband & friends confirmed it for me. Buy it cheap on sale, or through a respected seller on an auction site. Don't pay $12.50. Maybe the sprays last a bit longer, but the lotion only smells delicious for a what seems like a few minuets. Husband-friendly scents! (mine hates the smell of strong perfumes--doesn't everyone though?--but he LOVES the Strawberry Fizz while it lasts)

I got hooked after a friend slathered some on my arms. Use sparingly, a little goes a long way. I like this better than the perfume because it's a bit lighter and doesn't hit you in the face when it's too hot to be wearing perfume. (and you know who you are, you summer time perfume maiancs!) The scent hangs around for hours, it doesn't dissipate after a few minuets and around Christmas time you can get the gift boxes at drug stores for the price of one bottle of lotion--or less. Have had the same bottle for two years and it's only half empty. Sample it for yourself. It doesn't have an "old lady" or "too young" fragance. Just right.

I had sampled this at the store on a scent card so I can't say anything about staying power but the scent is absolutely nice! Light with a floral touch, but not too strong (which is often a good thing)

Got this in a gift box for Christmas a couple years ago & still going! The scent is hard to describe but it's light and not overpowering, hit-you-in-the-face perfume; not so light that you're the only one who smells it. I have a hard time finding perfumes that agree with my body chemistry but this is wonderful. Sticks around for hours. A bit strong for Texas summers, when it's hot it does seem to develop a stronger hit-you-in-the-face quality. Switch to the lotion for summer

My hair gets super dry in the winter and I have to wash every single day since it's so oily. A friend recomended Nexxus but I can't see myself spending $8 on shampoo so I tried the Suave knock-off version. I use it every other day, sometimes 2 days ina row, alternating with Garnier anti-dandruff and my hair is still dry. It's feels and looks dull and dry. I never use hair product or heated tools but my hair looks like I do and this shampoo didn't help one bit, even after using it for about three weeks. The scent gets a 10. Very nice fragrance without being perfumey. Suds up well.

Garnier Fructis Fortifying 2-in-1 Anti-Dandruff Shampoo & Conditioner
This ain't your mother's dandruff shampoo
I use about every other day to keep flakes at bay--esp in winter. Smells yummy & leaves hair soft & flake free. Doesn't tingle (ie burn) like some other dandruff shampoos. You know the one I'm talkin' about! Cheaper than tradional dandruff shampoos and that's always a plus

I have super oily skin and break out conistanly. This is a good gentle cleanser, but alone, will not prevent breakouts on my skin. On the rare occasions that I do wear make-up, I use this to wash it off since it is so gentle and sometimes I tend to over wash. It does not have a funky medicine smell as some cleansers do & would probably be good for sensitive skin.

Alcohol-free so it doesn't burn! Great for after dental work since alcolhol is prohibited after having a tooth pulled, etc. Taste is not overly-minty & leaves a fresh, clean feeling

I didn't buy this for the whitening effect--although I noticed no diff in the color of my teeth. What drew me was the Vanillia Mint flavor PERFECT FOR PEOPLE WHO HATE MINT!! Might be good for kids if the "hot" of mint flavor is bothersome
