RedLady21 says "My "must have" beauty product!" about Olay Daily Facials Cleansing Cloths

RedLady21 — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 09:34:08 GMT

I have been using this product for several years now and just couldn't survive without them! I don't like to spend too much time cleaning my face and these cloths really save time. What I dislike about most face washes is the mess I make applying them and trying to rinse them off my face without splattering water everywhere....especially my eyes! With this product, you simply wet the cloth a little, squeeze it in your hands to activate the soap, then scrub your face. To rinse the soap off your face, you run the cloth under the water and easily wipe your face clean. I have sensitve skin and have had no skin reaction problems with this product. Additionally, I find the cloths do not dry out my face like most soaps will. Of course, I always follow up my face wash with Oil of Olay Complete Defense 30 SPF Moisterizer....but that's a different review!

These cloths are also great for traveling because they are so compact and easy to tuck into your beauty bag. And the cloths work...

RedLady21 says "This product sounds better than it is." about Jergens Natural Glow Self Tanning Daily Moisturizer

I love Jergens' products as a general rule but found that despite the promises, this product didn't work for me at all! I liked the idea of applying a subtle tanning product that was also a moisturizing lotion. I even stayed with this product through the use of three tubes plus one tube of the similar face product. The end result? Nothing! Nada! Zilch! I did feel like the product added a nice, healthy glow to my skin, just no color enhancement at all. I would recommend saving your money and not buying this product....

RedLady21 says "Don't buy this product for your dog!" about Outward Hound Pet Lookout Car Booster Seat

I had been searching for a car booster seat for my 7-pound Yorkshire Terrier. I didn't want to continue driving with my "baby" sitting on my lap or jumping around the car loose because of obvious safety concerns. So I was eager to try the Outward Hound Pet Lookout Car Booster Seat that I found online.

The website claims "this practical car booster seat is the ultimate solution to safely satisfy a dog's natural urge to look out the window while driving in automobiles. Attaches in seconds to the passenger seat of most automobiles for a safe and comfortable ride for small dogs. Adjustable straps attach to car seat while adjustable safety harness attaches to pet collar. Holds pets up to 20lbs. Folds to 2.5" for easy storage." Not only that, but the item was priced very reasonably at $49.99.

When I received the booster seat I discovered that there was an inflatable "bladder" on the inside which I had to manually blow up to the proper height for my dog. It took a lot of breath and effort...

RedLady21 says "A most unconventional love story" about The Time Traveler's Wife

RedLady21 — Thu, 22 Nov 2007 01:41:32 GMT

I thoroughly enjoyed "The Time Traveler's Wife" because it was such an unconventional twist to a traditional love story. The book follows the life span of both the Time Traveler (Henry) and his wife (Clare)...as he goes back and forth in time, while she stays grounded to the present world. The two are able to meet a happy medium only at the mid-point of their lives, but their time together as a socially acceptable couple is short-lived at best. The book explores the disadvantages, for example, of being a young girl hanging around with a much older man. Because Henry has a condition which is triggered through stress, he never knows where or when he will disappear, let alone where or what year he will show up in. He does, however, know some of Claire's future because of his travels and that makes for tension between the couple as Claire wants to know what the future holds for her, while Henry feels conflicted about revealing too much.

The book is a poignant, touching story...
