  • Perfect Image

I started using perfect image chemical peels in 2016 and saw changes in my skin immediately.

My daily moisturizer is not being made anymore and I tried Ponds, CeraVe and other brands and I was not happy.

I exfoliate often to keep my skin clear and my skin gets really dry and irritated. After applying the Hydra-repair moisturizer and it got my skin together! Dry bumps gone. Irritated skin soothed.

One reason I don't like putting on moisturizer at night is because I don't want oil all over my pillowcase. This moisturizer seems to melt in my skin.

This is magic in a jar.

Tip for consumers:
A little goes a long way.

Products used:
Chemical peels, lotion and moisturizer.

Before I go to the beauty supply store, I go to this website first. Their website is very easy to navigate especially if you like looking for specific colors and certain brands in their search engine. I'm just so happy that I got what I ordered. I was worried that I would have received an email saying that my items were out of stock. Because my order was shipped the same day I was able to receive my order in a total of three days.

Tip for consumers:
Make sure you place your orders before 4 PM so that your order will be shipped the same day

  • Kiss

6/26/22
Verified purchase

I've always had a love for doing my own nails. It's easier to change a manicure without having to leave home.
I've worn so many of imPRESS nails by kiss. I have purchased packs from the store but I've gotten more of a variety online. I do a lot at home and always have my hands in water. With all that I do, these press on nails last two weeks. Having the option of short, long or active length nails are amazing. If I allow my nails to grow while wearing the press ons, I can simply go to the next length up. Im not sure what other brand sells multiple lengths like kiss.

Kiss nail glue is the best hands down. When I design my own nails no other glue keeps false nails on like this. I've used multiple brands of glue but my nails will pop off the same day.

I would literally give kiss a kiss.

  • NaturesPlus

6/26/22

There are two items that I trust from Natures plus. SPIRU-TEIN and Source of life gold energy shake.

This is what I have used for years as a meal replacement. I remember when these shakes were sold pre-made and they were so freaking good.

After a car accident and being on pain meds I used this shake to help loose weight and bring my body back to its natural state.

Ever since Covid some of their flavors have gone missing. Pina Colada was my absolute favorite and it's just sad that I can't get it anywhere!

My go too flavors are Banna, cuppachino and vanilla. I've added fruit, juice and even coco powder to the vanilla shake to make it taste like whatever I wanted and there is no aftertaste.

Do I have any complaints? Yes!
It's a smooth shake and not clumpy. But! It's not as smooth as it used to be before they switched sources of protein. Since they switched it my throat is scratchy. After drinking my shake I find myself clearing my throat and tossing back a tall glass of water.

My second and only other complaint depends on a preference. I do not like aftertaste. Especially strong aftertaste! The flavors I list below had a serious aftertaste at least to me. It wasn't fruity or sweet but more like dry and rancid.

Strawberry, chocolate, red exotic fruit, cookies and cream, peaches and cream, banana orange cream.

We all have our own taste buds and as I mentioned Banna is one of my faves. My friend tried the Banna and didn't like it. So it depends on what you are into. Either way I continue to use these shakes as a staple in my diet.

  • Stockpile

Stockpile was the first company I trusted to start my first investment portfolio in 2017.
The interface is clean and super easy to navigate which was important as a first time user.

Most of the companies I decided to invest were available and I never had any issue transferring money in or out. Customer service was prompt the few times I contacted them and very Thorough.

When I first started investing, every trade/ commission was an extra $0.99. Last year they made the trades free.

Sad news. Starting in July, a monthly fee of $4.95 will be charged to have an account with stockpile. The fee covers added benefits such as, Crypto trading and no fee gifting. These are features I'm not particularly interested in.

For customers with a preexisting account, can pay $19.95 for a lifetime membership. For people like myself who decide to let their money sit and grow, we either sell our shares with a profit or loss and withdraw the money. Or we pay this extra fee to let our money sit.
My opinion is that preexisting members should not have to pay anything.

I have other portfolios on other platforms that do not require a membership. Other platforms already offer the feature stockpile is adding for free.

Just my two cents for anyone looking to open an investment account.

So far I cannot complain about the security from stockpile. When I have logged in on my phone or laptop the site was always up. There have been no glitches unlike robinhood.

Tip for consumers:
Look for secure platforms that offer the same features for free

I started using uncle Harry's after my dentist told me my gums were receding. Decay and plaque had become friends with a few of my teeth and I really didn't want to go through with the suggested treatment options.

I noticed a difference in my gums in less than a week. My bleeding and sensitivity decreased and my mouth felt a lot cleaner.
Should you want to add one of their products to your regimen keep in mind a little goes a very long way. I think the mouthwash helped me the most and I used it after every time I ate. The flavor is very strong so I would dilute it with water.

I've tried the tooth paste and the powder I however prefer the paste. The constancy of the paste is a little grainy, but no more grainier than the polish the dentist use on your teeth during a cleaning.

When I when back to the dentist, my gums were no longer receded, I wasn't squirming around in the chair with sensitivity and I didn't have a huge bill at the end of my visit.

I have not gone back to regular tooth paste and I'm sticking to the holistic route.

My yunmai scale has been put to good use since 2016. I needed a scale because I wanted something that could connect to my phone that would help keep track of weight and help me maintain a healthy diet.

I thought the word "smart" just meant Bluetooth connection. But when I downloaded the app it schooled me on other parts on my body and proved just how smart it really was.

After I set My ideal weight, it gave me a comprehensive analyst. The analyst is a breakdown of your BMI, body age, bone mass, fat weight etc.

I'm so happy I purchased this scale. It has made my life a lot easier. There's a section for family or guest who want to use the scale as well.

  • Lipozene

Verified purchase

I have tried the Lipozine plus supplements that have the added ingredients such as garcinia Cambodia. My appetite did decrease and figured I would try the shake as well. For a whey protein shake it had a really good flavor. It didn't taste too sweet and I love that it wasn't grainy like other proteins shakes have been. When I made my shakes you couldn't tell me that I didn't buy them from a smoothie place.

I cannot say I noticed a huge difference in my weight. I've gone through a couple bottles of the pills and even when drinking the shake have only noticed a slight decrease in appetite. The shake has a lot of added byproducts and artificial sweeteners that I feel Goes against the idea of weight loss. Using it strictly as a meal replacement may or may not help depending on what your diet already is.

Tip for consumers:
When taking the pills drink as much water as you can to get your system acclimated to the supplement. I think drinking something warm with supplements activates them quicker.

  • Olive Garden

4/15/22

Remember when Olive Garden was a cute little date spot? Well it's more of a lunch depot for me. We used to frequent them for dinner when they had the Tuscan T-bone steak. Since those menu changes, the only thing that stayed the same was the soup and salad.

I usually get the chicken gnocchi which is a creamy based soup similar to clam chowder. I'll eat two to three bowls while enjoying bread sticks and salad on the side.

It's unlimited soup, so I'll take one or two bowls home as well. The soup is really comforting especially when you want meal with the same taste and flavor every time.

I've combined my soup with dessert, but I've also gone to Olive Garden for the dessert alone. The tiramisu, Italian donuts and cappuccino is delicious.

Depending on where I am going my menu selections will not change once I find something that I like. While the staff is nice, the ambience over all is not the same.

Tip for consumers:
The earlier you go the better. Becuase Olive Gardens Ambience has gone down, you run the risk of running into people with really loud conversations, babies that would rather be in bed, and really large service animals.

  • Lume Deodorant

4/8/22
Verified purchase

Lumi deodorant is great for those who don't want aluminum and baking soda in a natural deodorant base. I ended up getting mine from Amazon for $16.99 with prime shipping so I was able to receive it a little bit faster than ordering directly from their website. My biggest complaint is that I wish it didn't have caffeine in the ingredients. I am allergic to caffeine and could no longer use it. When looking for a good deodorant, caffeine is not one of the top things I'm looking for lol. Pricing is definitely a little steep when compared to other deodorants but hey, this is a all natural product! I'm not sure if it's everything put together but there is a strong scent in conjunction to what the deodorant is supposed to smell like. Imagine taking The smell of birthday cake candle wax… that's what the smell it reminds me of. If you're out running and you sweat a that's the first thing you will smell, not the amazing sent of essential oils.

I can't say the cream doesn't work it does! And it works seemingly fast. I saw results in two weeks. $60 for 1 ounce is a little expensive. You are supposed to mix what you get with another cream however, I think it is a little bit expensive for my taste. I wanted the cream for other areas but I can only use this for my under arms and I cant use it under my arms often on because it makes my skin very sensitive and other parts very sensitive. When I stop using the cream the darkness comes back so therefore it kind of just ended up being a waste :(

Tip for consumers:
Be aware if skin sensitivity

  • EbonyOnline

1/29/22

I found the site by looking for a specific wig. I heard of Ebonyonline before. I thought the prices were great and not that they were too good to be true I just thought they were reasonable prices. The first order placed I canceled due to being overcharged for shipping. If you have to modify something like your address, telephone number or even credit card information the page seems to revert back to a setting for a higher shipping cost and you may not catch that before you click the confirm button. Also they may have coupons listed on their site but they won't be working.

So on my second order I decided to order 3 items and was excited to receive them in the mail. However, six days after placing my order I received an email stating my order had been modified because one of the items was unavailable. I was disappointed because essentially I ordered an item that was listed on the site as in stock and it was actually out of stock. But at the end of the day I thought hey, I'll just wait for my other things to arrive. After about a day or so I realized I still did not have a tracking number. I went ahead and reached out to customer service and I was told they had not shipped anything because they were waiting on me. Nowhere in the email does it state that I need to respond, that they need an OK etc. if an order has been "modified" that means the order should still be able to ship and a refund given. These people need to work on their customer service even when I was communicating with the rep via bear chat it was like I was communicating with someone that lacked logic and basic communication skills I will not be ordering from this company again.

  • AliExpress

When purchasing from AliExpress you gotta due your research. Other sites like eBay or Etsy have independent sellers and to ensure you are buying a good product what's the best thing to do? Look at the feedback and ratings for each store. I have had a few times when I did not receive a package for whatever reason and AliExpress customer service goes through a processing service to help get refunds. The only downside is that you have to be thorough when explaining the issues. I don't mind waiting for something but sometimes they can expect you to wait over two months so I usually keep my shopping to clothing or Jewlery.

Tip for consumers:
Keep it Simple and order one thing at a time.

Ive ordered sunglasses and jewelry from wish and have been pleased. My one complaint is that i orders a dress and it was not as pictured. However contacting customer service was easy and I got a refund. Not argument or anything.

  • Dollar Tree

9/2/17

I really like dollar tree for everyday products, like bleach, soap, even plates for he house. You cant beat a dollar when you know how to spend it. Make sure you go to a store in the higher end of town though. Every dollar tree isn't a good dollar tree

  • ipsy

Im just getting into makeup and I wanted something that would introduce me to good and high end makeup. I got my first bag In August and I was disappointed. Even my mom said you can take 10 dollars and buy what you acutely want in walmart lol.

Supposedly after leaving reviews they will then be able to personalize my bag for this month. I received a curl cream for my hair, but I don't wear my hair out so thats not something I consider useful. A bottle of nail polish thats vegan but I have tons of nail polish already. Eye shadow that was too dark and blended into my skin. Mascara that wasn't too bad. Over all my favorite was the Mascara because of the brush. Nothing to spectacular.

I took an assessment test for them to match my products but that seemed to be a waste of time if they don't pay attention to it.

Ill see what happens this month, if Im still not wowed Ill be canceling my membership.

I recently ordered from walmart because what they have online isn't always in the store.
Got free shipping for site to store and the pickup wasn't that bad, Had to wait a few minutes to get my things. But over all its cool.
