What's all of the craze with BKT (known as Brazilian Keratin Treatments)? Well I HAD to try it for myself and I was really impressed with the results! Brazilian Keratin Treatments are products that use a form of protein called keratin to repair the cuticle. Formalin is used to help bind the keratin to the cuticle. It works to smooth the cuticles of curly, frizzy hair and is temporary, usual...

I received a years subscription to OK! Magazine as a gift, which is good, because I certainly would never had paid for it!  It really is aptly titled.  It is just another celebrity gossip rag, repeating the same tired stories that the Globe & National Enquirer have already printed.  I will say the quality of materials used to produce the magazine is a nice change from the oth...

I received this phone for my birthday in 2006 and I still have it now one  year later. I like the fact that it's not too small and not too big. Just right as Goldilocks would say. My meaty paws don't dwarf the thing and its size means it can be chucked at your enemies with extreme prejudice. It's pretty durable as well. A good thing since I tend to be very clumsy with my phone....

I have had my Motorola for 1 1/2 years and I have had to replace it already. It doesn't offer features like camera, bluetooth feature, music download, or games. If you are looking for a durable phone this one is fairly good in that if you drop it the clip may come off or you may scratch it but because it is a flip phone the inside of it is protected. I live off the main road in a ...

Aloette’s Restorative Enzyme Peel is similar to Ice Elements 2 minute miracle exfoliation gel, but it does not quite hit the mark.While Aloette’s  Restorative Enzyme Peel is a gentle, hydrating peel that gives results, it does not break down as nice as the Ice Elements version. The Restorative Enzyme Peel also does not pull up enough dead surface skin cells and seems to clump u...

The scent of the Seville Row candle is very nice, but it does not put that fragrance into the air when it is burning!Considering that I bought this from a mark-down table for $1.99 instead of the $6.39 it originally sold for, I am not going to complain.  But if I had paid full price for this candle I would have been very unhappy.  The candle was originally a tall pillar, 3 inches in d...

The fourth installment of the Elderscrolls series, Oblivion, was an amazing game that broke the mold when it came to RPG games and how wonderful games could look. Continuing on, Bethsada released an expansion pack to the already amazing game to add some more depth to it. Unfortunately…this expansion really lacks. The story around this time is that you come upon a massacre at a church....

Screen: 128x128 4096 colors OS: s40 Network: GSM 900/1800/1900 Tunes: Polyphonic Images: All Memory: 4MB Internal Internet: GPRS, Dial Up This phone looks very similar to the Nokia 7250. It has a xhtml browser which means newer mobile pages can be viewed. The phone also comes with a built in FM radio capability, which is something I definately look for in all s40 phones. It also has MMS capabil...

I purchased this with my laptop. I was not familiar with Photoshop before purchasing this product, as I have always used Macromedia products. With Adobe purchasing Macromedia, I thought I had better try it and see how I liked it. Photoshop Elements tried to take over my pictures. As soon as I plugged in my camera, it assumed that it knew what I wanted and downloaded them all to my computer with...

This media player is a small, compact device. It comes with a 2GB flash memory drive. Now since this is a flash drive, it means that there are no moving parts in the player. Hence dropping it or subjecting it to sudden shaking and the like wont do any harm to the files stored. Since I use my player a lot while jogging, this feature is good. Besides being able to play MP3 and WMA audio files, th...

This player plays music with extreme audio clarity. The bass is especially good when the earphones are plugged in. It comes with speakers that allow the player to play music externally. The sound played by these speakers are loud enough to be heard across the room. The interface is extremely easy. It can be tuned as an alarm clock too. The FM tuner is very good with capabilities of receiving FM...

It is very difficult to find bath towels that still look nice after a few washings. Oh sure, they all look nice in the store, don't they? It's usually that first trip to the washing machine that unravels the truth and sends some new towel owners back to the store for a refund. One day while at Bed Bath & Beyond, I found towels that claim to be organic.  I didn...

Yet another camera by Nikon with their almost trademark characteristics. It takes pictures of 8.1 megapixels resolution. Surprisingly clear when enlarged on a PC. It has a 3.5x Optical Zoom and 4x Digital Zoom. The optical zoom value is above average and pictures of far objects come out quite clear when taken. It lacks manual focus capabilities. This made it annoying sometimes when I couldn'...

This inexpensive head net is adequate with certain adjustments, but it has a one major drawback that I don’t care for.You can find this net at pretty much any display of inexpensive outdoor equipment.  That’s always a plus factor, because if you need bug protection NOW, and forgot to bring a net, at least you can get this item almost anywhere.It consists of a top panel which is...

I go through a lot of ink pens between work and school. I picked up a pack of these Bic ultra round stick grip pens, black ink last week. I was not really impressed with the preformance of these pens. The ink 'skips' so often that I want to scream, and I have thrown away 5 pens out of frustration already! I think that these Bic pens are cheaply made, and they are really low quality. I p...

 Well I was bored with what games I had and went out and rented Devil May Cry for my PS2. It seemed like a interesting game and I heard a few good things about it so I figured why not? It's a rather dark game and appeared challanging, and I'm up for a challange since I've beaten Resident Evil 4 so many times I lost count! Anyway, in the original Devil May Cry, you assume the pe...

I did TONS of research and recommended this product to a man I know who recently lost use of his arms and hands.  Not being able to change the TV channel himself was a source of much frustration.When the remote first arrived, both he and his wife tried to get it to work for about an hour and couldn't get it to do a thing.  Their friend stopped over and was able to pick it up ...

I recently purchased a futon from Wal-Mart for about $200 plus tax, for my library. I wanted somewhere to get comfy while enjoying this beautiful room in my house. Well I was intimidated by the three flights of stairs leading upto my library. So I leaned towards the futon possibility. The futon is constructed of wood and metal, and has a nice tan 'mattress'. It was insanely difficult to...

We bought this swingset a couple of years ago for our then 3 yr old daughter. It was on sale, and we couldn't afford a true cedar set, so we went with this one to save money. I wish we had waited and gotten a better set. The safety of this swingset leaves a lot to be desired. The slide is very flimsy, so that when my 45 lb child slides down it, it bows down under her weight. The boards on t...

Don’t be fooled by the name. Don’t be fooled into thinking these are high quality because they are natural bristle. No serious artist would use these, but if you need some small brushes for a non-precision job, or for your kids, these might be a good selection.I picked up this package of brushes at Home Depot.  They are pony hair.  There are three flat brushes about 5/8 in...
