New Orajel Single Dose Cold Sore Treatment

This single dose cold sore treatment really works well. Easy to use, just clean the lip, slide the protective blue cover to the other side and squeeze the vial firmly on the blue arrow until you hear the snap. Let the tip get saturated, then gently touch the cold sore to numb it. When it's numb you can then rub more firmly to allow the treatment to penetrate the skin. That's it. One treatment and done. I was fortunate enough to receive a sample of this to try from Smiley360.

Burt's Bees Intense Hydration line

Burt's Bees Intense Hydration line is a hit! The products are 99% natural with no animal testing done, which is a big plus in my book. The products that I tried: The cleanser is creamy, easy to use, takes off make-up completely and leaves your skin feeling clean, smooth and moist. The Hydration Treament Mask smooths on, smells great and simply wipes off with a tissue leaving behind extra hydration and a great feeling to your face. The Night Cream takes just a small amount for your entire face, goes on with no greasy feeling, has that same great clary sage scent as the other products and you wake up to wonderfully smooth, moist, young-looking skin. I was very pleased with the results from these products (and my skin was even more pleased!), thanks to BzzAgent for the chance to try them.

Green Mountain Coffee & Fair Trade Certification

I've had a chance recently to try Green Mountain Coffee thanks to BzzAgent, which is a Fair Trade Certified coffee. The coffee itself was wonderful, comes in all different flavors and may well become a staple here. Grace Potter & Michael Franti, musicians, went to Columbia & Sumatra, respectively, to see how the Fair Trade coffee farmers actually worked and how Fair Trade worked for them. As they say: "Great coffee, Good vibes, Pass it on!" Fair Trade Certified certainly gives it a boost in my opinion, too. Because Fair Trade Certification on the coffee means some pretty wonderful things like: *Fair trade works hard to help farmers get a fair price for their beans. *It helps to improve working conditions. *It assists with protecting the environment. *It supports communities by helping to build schools, roads and health clinics and provide safer drinking water. Put fantastic coffee with a fantastic program and you have a nearly irristable combination.

Glade Expressions

I love the Glad Expressions collection! With the Oil Diffuser in the livingroom when people come into the house all they notice is the clean, fresh fragrance of the lavender & juniper berry..not the odor of stale smoke or pet odors...and in the smaller areas, like my office, I use the fuji apple & cardamom spice Fragrance Mist to freshen my office space. The whole house smells fresh and inviting. Other fragrances they have are: pineapple & mangosteen, and cotton & italian mandarin. I've tried the pineapple & mangosteen, too, and it was *wonderful*! Being a BzzAgent and getting to try such terrific products for free to review is great!

Covergirl & Olay Review

Want to get a youthful look and tone your skin while wearing your makeup? You should try Covergirl & Olay Tone Rehab 2&1 foundation and pressed powder! They work to tone up your skin as you're wearing your makeup and they give a beautiful finish (and light-weight feel) to your skin. I was pleasantly surprised at how my skin looked after just using these products for a short time. My skin looks so much younger now! Being a BzzAgent gives me a chance to try products like these for free. So, once again, thanks to BzzAgent for the chance to try products and review them.

5-hour ENERGY did give me more energy and alertness when I tried it. Was kind of impressed. Decided to try it instead of coffee for a day and it worked as well, if not better than the coffee, and the Pomegranate flavor was actually really good tasting! If you're thinking of trying it, give it a 'shot', it's worth it!

just add water, instant grandma

well, the household dynamic has changed here...my almost step-daughter has moved in with her 3 & 4 year olds...i now live in my office full-time...lol...so do the cats..the dogs (traitors that they are) have decided they like my step-daughter more than they like me...they'll pay attention to me, when she's not around but "poof" if she steps foot in the room they're gone....and i raised them from pups...serious bummer...the older of the two is our watch dog...he doesn't like anyone but family....he rolls on his back to get his tummy scritched by her...hell of a watch dog he is.
Having little people back in the house at my age is like culture shock...the noise level is incredible...and so are the questions...and so is having to dodge the cats as they try to make the run between food/litter boxes and the office and bedroom which are like homeplate in a particularily ruleless baseball game...sure does keep me on my toes, tho...haven't felt this alive in a long while, guess it's good for me...we'll see how it goes...Gods bless the children...at least i'm never bored...<smile>
