I love my Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic Shower Cleaner.  I’ve had mine for over a year.  I was skeptical at first, as we have a combo tub/shower, but it does a great job both of cleaning the shower, and keeping it clean. Using the Automatic Shower Cleaner is very easy-after the last shower of the day, you simply push the button on the unit and close the shower curtain.  It be...

I love Neutrogena Ultra Sheer, Dry-Touch Sunblock-I use SPF 55.  Not only does it come in a high SPF and contain Helioplex, but it is also light enough to use everyday (which I do).  For those of you who don't know, Helioplex is a component unique to Neutrogena which protects against UVA rays as well as the standard UVB rays of the sun:  remember A for aging, B for ...

I like Sunsilk De-Frizz conditioner.  I originally got this conditioner as a free sample, and have since purchased it.  It's in an easy to use bottle (I like that its spout is on the bottom so I don't need to precariously balance an upside-down bottle in my shower).  It's a nice consistency, it's not watery like some other lower-priced conditioners.  It&...

They aren’t glamorous, but AZO test strips have come in handy on more than one occasion.  As a person with chronic bladder issues, I am prone to having UTI’s show up at the most inopportune moments (midnighton Thursday?  Late Saturday night? Sure thing).  When I have those tell tale symptoms (pee smelling funny, backaches, peeing frequently).  While AZO strips ar...

I love these CVS Cranberry tablets (they’re the generic version of the AZO Cranberry tablets, but about half the price).  I originally started using these about two years ago when I was in college.  I was in CVS picking up yet another antibiotic for yet another UTI when I saw these tablets.  Given how watered down and sugary the dorm’s kitchen’s “cranberry...

I really like the new Acuvue Oasis contact lenses.  I had been using the Acuvue Advanced contacts, but my eye doctor suggested I try the Oasis brand, as she said that her patients felt they were better at staying moist than the Advanced version.  I’ve tried them for about a month, and I find them to be as comfortable as the Acvue Advanced.  While I haven’t noticed a c...

I'm lukewarm on Neutrogena Triple Moisture Silk Touch Leave-In Cream .  Its pros are that it contains UV blockers, moisturizes and detangles nicely.  It smells nice, and it's a consistency at which you can easily squirt an amount in your palm.  You don't need a lot to get it to work, which is a plus.  It also does live upto its name and makes your hair very soft....

I love Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream.  It’s a great size-big enough that it lasts a decent amount of time, small enough it can travel easily or go in your purse.  This cream’s consistency is great-it’s nice and solid-you know it’s really moisturizing your cuticles.  That said, I think the term "cream" is something of a misnomer-it&...

Queen Helene’s Mint Julep Mask has a near-cult following on some internet boards, and after trying it nearly a year, it’s easy to see why.  Not only is this product extremely reasonable, and smell pleasantly minty, it’s also a good facial mask.  It’s very effective at drying out pimples, and is somewhat good at getting out blackheads.  I find that it's...

I love my Passporter Guide to Walt Disney World.  It’s a great guidebook-featuring ratings for every attraction at Walt Disney World.  Additionally, it also features a great deal of useful information, such as how to best get from point a to point b in the most efficient manner possible.  But what really sets the Passporter apart from other guidebooks are its interactive pa...

I have been using my Reach Access Flosser daily for almost three years and I honestly cannot imagine life without it.  I have a really strong gag reflex, so I always dreaded flossing-I felt like I was sticking my fingers down my throat.  When I saw an ad for the Reach Flosser on TV, I figured it was worth a shot.  This product has revolutionized my oral care habits-it's ...

I recently started using Sebastian Potion 9 in my hair everyday, and I'm in love.  This treatment advertises itself as a "leave-in treatment."  I thought it was just a euphemism for leave in conditioner, but it really is a treatment-I can feel the difference in my hair even before I put it in-my hair is softer, less prone to tangling, less frizzy.  This treatment is...

I like Coppertone Sport Continuous Spray.  I just tried this spray this year.  I'd previously been a fan of the sport lotion in the bottle, and I thought the spray would be a nice quick way to pop sunscreen on before work in the morning.  It's a very easy to use spray, and it's able to get this spray at a good price through CVS.  It does have the features I like ...

I first tried the Oral B Pulsar Pro Health brush because I got it free after ExtraCare Bucks at CVS, however, I have found in the past six months that I really like it.  It's not heavy, like the electric toothbrush I had ten years ago was, not does it require pricey replacement heads.  Because Oral B pulsar's are not as expensive as replacement electric toothbrushes, they'...

I test drove the Honda Fit when I was car shopping this past year, and I liked it.  I liked its versatility, the fact that it was a brand I was already loyal to (my 1998 Honda Accord was totalled, which is why I was car shopping), and that it fit my budget.  The Fit also has anti-lock brakes standard, and they are rarely standard in economy class cars.  Also, unlike its sibling t...

When I was car shopping this spring, I figured I was looking at the basic cars offered by Honda and Toyota/Scion in fact, we drive away from the Scion dealership planning to go home and search for an xA in the color I wanted. However, Consumer Reports had rated Nissan's new Versa highly, so I figured I'd give a test drive. The instant I drove the Versa, I knew it was a better car than t...

I cannot say enough good things about JetBlue airlines.  When I flew them for the very first time in 2004, I was skeptical-I generally associated low-cost airlines with ones that don’t assign you a seat.  I was surprised to find well-sized leather seats, ample snacks, and my own private Direct TV screen.  Since that first wonderful experience, I have made Jet Blue my first ...

I was unimpressed with Clean & Clear® Advantage™ Invisible Acne Patch.  I originally tried it because I like some other Clean and Clear products, and I had read a rave review in Allure.  The product comes in a pen-like tube, so it’s nice to travel with; however, that’s about all I the good I can say about it.  I didn’t find it any easier to put on ...

I love my iPod.  I still have the early click wheel (Fourth generation, no color/video), but I love my iPod.  It is so great not to have to lug a big thing of CD's with me everywhere I go.  I also love being able to downloads podcats about my interests, and make my own playlists.  The battery life on my iPod is very good and it is very user-friendly.  It also h...

I have been going to Martha's Vineyard for vacations since I was a little girl.  It's a beautiful Island with something for everyone:  great food, beautiful beaches, a carousel, gorgeous views.  One big plus of Martha's Vineyard as a vacation destination, rather than Cape Cod, is that it is very easy for those who do not have a car to get there and get around.&nb...
