scarywoodwitch says "Your Skin Will Be Forever Youthful Using Retin - A Micro" about Retin - A Tretinoin Micro Cream

scarywoodwitch — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 03:47:38 GMT

Well into my late twenties, I had to visit a Dermatologist. I saw the ever reputable Dr. Goldberg who prescribed Retin - A Micro to me for acne. It made my skin more beautiful that it had been at birth. I also noticed another property that Retin - A has by mistake. It removes scars, stretch marks, and wrinkles. I had no idea older women had been using it for years to remove wrinkles. Sure enough, when I had a child and my stomach was Stretch Mark Haven, he prescribed the drug again to rub on those stretch marks. Guess what? My stretch marks that were deep, purple eyesores were white and less deep in four months. They still exist, but they are white, not as noticeable. I didn't expect a miracle, but I got a small one as opposed to a huge, earth shattering one. Only a tummy tuck really gets rid of that and cocoa butter, yeah, I went through a bottle a day at 18 years of age when my skin was full of collagen and elasticin, don't believe the hype, but when you are done...

scarywoodwitch says "Gentle on You Stomach, Tough Insulin Resistance Fighter!" about Glumetza Glumetza

scarywoodwitch — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 03:33:25 GMT

I was very run down for well over a year and thought I was dying almost. I had no idea why I was so weak, why my hair was falling out, why my skin was broken out again like I was sixteen, and why I was so depressed and had such issues with sleeping and hotflashes and other various thing a woman in her twenties should not be dealing with. The odd thing is that other than being a little overweight, I'm relatively healthy. Anyway, I went to a new doctor, as I had moved out of state and he referred me to an Endocrinologist as he had suspicions that I may have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. I went for an ultrasound and to the endrocrinologist and got bloodwork and sure enough, I'm a PCOS sufferer with an underactive thyroid. I was put on several different kinds of Metformin. All made me sick to my stomach to the point where I felt worse taking it than not. I continued to take the meds, but eventually was switched to Glumetza. Its released through the pores of a stretchy coating substance...

scarywoodwitch says "Prescription Strength Bacterial Fighting Topical Antibiotic!" about Cleocin T Gel Clindamycin Phosphate Topical Acne Antibiotic

scarywoodwitch — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 02:47:37 GMT

Cleocin very quickly, within months penetrates your pores while you are wearing it. Its clear, dosen't stain or bleach clothes, and can be worn to bed as it is not irritating to the skin or eyes. Cleocin is a very smooth gel, the texture is very thin and it disapears into the skin within seconds. This medication must be prescribed by a physician or a nurse practitioner, but wow, you will see a difference within weeks and a complete transformation within months. When you look at your pores in the mirror, that black stuff that you can squeeze, blackheads, the black is skin pigment and the yellow stuff under it is not always puss, the hard yellow stuff that comes out is sebum. Bacteria gets caught under and between these layers and your skin can't breathe. The bacteria grows, strengthens, and you have a big puss filled bump, a zit, sometimes many as I once had. This will work on somebody who has a problem with bacteria. Hormones also cause bad skin and are another issue, but...

scarywoodwitch says "Target Mossimo Long & Lean & Flattering!" about Mossimo Mossimo Long & Lean Tank Tops

scarywoodwitch — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 00:32:24 GMT

I worked at Target for a number of years. While I love Old Navy men's aline tshirts, my true love would be Target Mossimo Supply Co.'s long and lean tank tops. I'm chubby, so they flatter me nicely. They are tight fitting where it counts and loose in the belly area and cover your backside enough. There is nothing worse than losing your pants and everybody seeing. Its nice to have coverage back there. You can layer these tees and it creates the illusiion of being thin if you are not. If you are thin, well, they will still flatter you. They cling to the bust and give it lots of flattering curve and the stretch in the shirt almost holds them up a little bit better. How do you like that, ladies? The straps are thick enough to cover your bra straps and very comfortable. I sleep in these babies all year round. If its cold, I throw on a sweatshirt over it. Removeable layers are great, especially this time of year, depending on what region you are in. In New England,...

scarywoodwitch says "Volume, Shine, Manageability" about Herbal Essences Herbal Essences Body Envy Volumizing Shampoo

scarywoodwitch — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 00:14:20 GMT

I had first seen the new line of Herbal Essences while staying at a friend's house and taking a shower in their bathroom. I saw online that if you became a fan of Herbal Essences on Facebook for a particular period a few weeks back, they would send you a free coupon for a free regular sized bottle. I chose Shampoo, as opposed to conditioner and further, chose Body Envy - their brand volumizing formula. It came in a super colorful, cute, bottle that would look great in any gift bag at the holidays or as a stocking stuffer, ladies...its pink, part of it sparky, a cute lime green and orange cap. I have not yet tried the conditioner, but I plan to. Its infused with white nectarine and pink coral flower. These two ingredients smell great and are super effective. If you have oily hair this formula rinses away sebum, dry skin, and oil. It dosen't strip out all your natural oils, though. This can be seen by the healthy sheen your hair will take on upon conditioning and blowdrying!...

scarywoodwitch says "Washes Clean, Tough on Grease, Smells Great!" about Sunsations Sunsations Oxy Clean Dish Liquid

scarywoodwitch — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 21:36:01 GMT

I bought this wonderful detergent for a buck from the Dollar Tree Store! Its twenty five fluid ounces of pure oxygen grease cutting, cleaning power. Right now, this economy size is being offered at twenty eight percent more than its sixteen ounce regular size. I love it when that happens!! Oxygen Clean Sunsations rinses away food, grease, crumbs, and gunk with ease leaving your dishes and utensils sparkling, smelling great and free of residue, never soapy, slimy, or filmy. The worst thing has to be when you take a sip out of a freshly cleaned cup and you get a nice big throat full of soap suds, yuck! The best thing of all about Sunsations is that it smells wonderful, sort of like a clean ocean smell. Its a clear aqua blue and comes in a cute, generous sized bottle. If you are looking to save a few bucks and not willing to compromise quality for savings, I would take a trip to the Dollar Tree and stock up on this great product!

scarywoodwitch says "Earn Gift Cards, Play Games, Its That Simple & Free!" about Video Sqares

scarywoodwitch — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 20:02:41 GMT

I just recently joined video squares. I was referred to it by a friend on Gather and now I am going to tell all of you about it. This website is great fun and you can earn prizes just for playing! You earn rewards just for logging in and a certain amount of rewards for every game you play. I was pleasantly surprised with the ease of how many points are earned in a day's time of logging in and just playing for an hour or so. You get a thousand points to refer friends! I think that's really generous!!! I am absolutely addicted to Deal or No Deal on there. There is also a very cute easter egg matching game kind of on the same idea as Tetris of Dr. Mario. That's alot of fun as well. There is a Casino section where you can play Roulette and slots games and that sort of thing. I still have not played too many of the games as there are so very many to choose from! Definitely join up, explore, invite some friends. You can play games against other players who are site members,...

scarywoodwitch says "Making Ends Meet for the Holidays with Opinion Outpost!" about Opinion Outpost

scarywoodwitch — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 19:05:28 GMT

Opinion Outpost is awesome! I have snagged a few checks and quite a few gift cards from them this month. I recently joined and get all of the surveys I am eligible for sent to me directly in my email. Their screeners are not wicked long and pointless, and I often qualify to do these surveys and receive either an Amazon gift card, and I'm talking immediately, you cash out and it gives you the code right there! You can also opt for a check. It takes a few weeks, but its great, you have options!!! Opinion Outpost is a wonderful place to make a few extra bucks for the upcoming holidays or just to make ends meet during the year. I know its been a great help to me so far. I am saving up my Amazon dollars and I'm going to order and just get a big shipment in the mail. Santa is coming! It gives me piece of mind that I immediately receive the code and can stash it away in my Amazon virtual gift card account. Its easy and its convenient! I highly suggest you trying them out! ...

NattScatt says "Exactly What I Would Expect From Paula Deen....Yall" about Paula Deen Baked Goods - Original Gooey Butter Cake

NattScatt — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 21:01:37 GMT

I never thought I'd see the day when a piece of cake would make my eyes roll. Well not only did I see the day(s), I'm looking forward to seeing more and more, and more of the same. I'm normally not a cake eater. I'd much rather have a nice juicy steak or a mound of pasta with homemade sauce. Ever since I discovered Original Gooey Butter Cake from Paula Deen Baked goods, I can no longer say " I don't care much for cake."

Original Gooey Butter Cake is everything I would expect from Paula Deen, also known as the Butter Queen. The package says it is a sweet yellow cake crust with melt -in your-mouth cream cheese filling, but to me it brings back memories of my childhood. Without dating myself too much, does anyone remember when "penny candy" was actually a penny? There were Mary Janes and Squirrel Nut Zippers, among others. And there were also little candies that melted in your mouth that had brown and white wrappers with pictures of cows on them. Well those "cow" candies...

scarywoodwitch says "Antivirus Protection You Can Trust! " about AVG Antivirus Free Edition

scarywoodwitch — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 23:29:26 GMT

I have been a fan of AVG for a long time. They actually had bought out a company called Edwido. I downloaded their software for the first time in excess of five years ago. Its a good free backup in addition to what you have downloaded already on your coputer for virus, adaware, and malware protection. AVG picks up items that your current software may not detect and asks you if you are ready to get rid of it and then does so all in a safe, self-contained way so that an inexperienced user will not damage his or her computer. I would certainly recommend this company to both advanced and amateur users. At least try it and see what you think. Its very easy to run and watch to see what it picks up. You will know if its picking up errors, viruses, adaware, and malware while it is running and you can actually see when and where it is coming from if you understand the way your computer is set up. I love it and think you all should try it out if you don't have an Antivirus program...

scarywoodwitch says "Curel Itch Defense Isn't Messy and Dosen't Overmoisturize!" about Curel Itch Defense Skin Balancing Moisture Lotion

scarywoodwitch — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 23:19:38 GMT

I received a sample of Curel Itch defense in the mail this afternoon. I swear by Curel as a lotion, but didn't like this one as much. I'm sure over a period of time, maybe a few days or so, it helps with itching, but I don't think the moisture level is there. It isn't greasy and absorbs right into your skin, but I don't feel that refreshed quenching that lasts all day like I do with their regular dry skin lotion. This is different. Its supposed to rebalance your skin's ph, so I am hoping maybe in the morning or tomorrow night I might notice a difference. I'm going to try it on some of the dry areas on my feet as well. I have small patches of psoriasis or something, I'm not sure if its that or severe eczema, but we will see how that goes. I am appreciative of the fact that I can put it on and it will seal in the moisture that is there and protect against the discomfort of that gross itchy, dry, parched, sore feeling those skin conditions bring, but overall, its ok and I don't...

scarywoodwitch says "Secret Clinical Strength Keeps You Dry and Fresh Smelling!" about Secret Clinical Strength Secret Clinical Strength

scarywoodwitch — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 00:46:25 GMT

I got a sample of Secret Clinical Strength from Vocalpoint. I think at retail, as I have checked, this product is really pricey for its performance. However, I was sent several $2 off coupons to pass along to friends. It was good, but it did clump alot. Most of the clumps dissolve into your skin, but what if you are wearing black and have to shoot out the door? I really don't think its worth eight bucks. It smelled great, kept my odor under control, and washed off easily when I took a shower, but I'm not really somebody who excessively sweats or who's body odor is particularly strong and needs that much control, so I would not be able to speak for those who do probably really need an item that is clinical strength. I would say they are overcharging quite a bit for a product that really is not much different than what is already on the market. I was glad to try it out, but no miracles, I'm going to give you my honest opinion and tell it like it is! I hate to disappoint. ...

scarywoodwitch says "Alice is Your New Virtual Mom!" about Alice.com Get An Alice, Its Like a Virtual Online Warehouse Store

scarywoodwitch — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 00:33:23 GMT

Alice.com is an absolute godsend. You can order items you would get at a warehouse store like BJs or Sam's Club, in bulk online and have them delivered! This service is beautiful! You get reminded when you need to stock up again, too! The beautiful thing is Alice searches for the cheapest products and then finds online coupons and applies them to items you buy that have discounts available! You have to get one of these things. If you live in a remote area, don't have a car, are disabled, this is a great idea. Get one for your elderly parents or grandparents, yourself. You will be glad you did. Refer friends, get free money towards your own orders for a year. You get three percent, I believe. I am absolutely amazed with Alice and don't know why somebody didn't come up with this type of service sooner! Its quick, loads fast, efficient, organized, and a big help to people like me who are terribly disorganized, and you won't believe the selection. You can get anything...

scarywoodwitch says "Creepy & Terrifying Religious Element - Twisted Wickedness!" about Death of a Ghost Hunter

scarywoodwitch — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 00:23:09 GMT

I rented this flick, "Death of a Ghost Hunter", on Netflix on demand. It was absolutely terrifying. It starts out very slow and you really don't have a clue what is going on or what is going to happen. It was one of those kinds of movies where everything pulls together at the end and you can't miss a detail, but you will be glued to the screen anyway. Its kinda cheesily shot in that reality ghost show cam, but the plot is really really good. Somebody wrote a good story even though it wasn't acted out by the most talented cast. They were medicore actors. I wouldn't call it "B", but it definitely wasn't a Hollywood ghost flick. I was pleasantly surprised at the twists and turns and how sick the end becomes. You will have absolutely no idea what end is up or down until at the very end a few things begin to pull together. You ultimately do not really have a clue until the end scene and then you say to yourself, "Oh!". Its a great flick, but don't watch it at night alone,...

scarywoodwitch says "Protects & Heals Smith's Rosebud Salve!" about Smith's Rosebud Salve Smith's Rosebud Salve

scarywoodwitch — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 00:58:28 GMT

Smith's Rosebud Salve is something every mom or every human should have in their medicine cabinet. I scored a couple of tins of it from Buzz Agent a couple of years ago. Actually, it was more than a couple. They were prizes at the time and I give one of these babies to every momma I know as part of a holiday present basket. I still have one of mine. I stocked up! This salve can be used as lip gloss on dry lips, to moisturized severely dry, cracked skin, for burns, cuts, even if they are open cuts. I actually use it on my ankles at night to moisturize them as they get super dry. I also use it around my hairline when I am coloring my hair. Its not as greasy as petroleum and its pink so I can see what I am wiping off and get it all more effectively. It smells like rosewater, but the smell is very light. You can smell it on another person, but its not overwhelming like perfume, its from actual roses or rosewater. This stuff is great, I don't know what else I would use...

scarywoodwitch says "Get Free Gift Cards to Post Freebies on Quizpoints!" about Quizpoints Freebies

scarywoodwitch — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 18:51:01 GMT

I have been using Quizpoints for quite a few years when I sign up for video rentals, music downloads, and things like that to earn gift cards for doing this. I only recently discovered that you get points for posting new and unique freebies there. You can sign in whnever you feel necessary and post freebies you have found online or elsewhere and share them with the community. You get ten points to refer friends to do so. Its something I enjoy doing, because people could use a little help this season, and that's why these types of websites and blogs are there. Most people are not cheap without good reason *chuckle*, and you will feel good just for helping somebody trying to make ends meet. There are many elders, disabled, and single parents out there who are struggling this holiday season, believe me when I say that! So, you get to feel good for helping the less fortunate as well as earning yourself some extra holiday spending gift cards or a treat for yourself simultaneously...

scarywoodwitch says "Read Email & Sign Up for Interesting Newsletters, Take Quizzes!" about Quick Rewards

scarywoodwitch — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 18:42:43 GMT

Quickrewards is my most recent find that I love dearly. I have been on there daily and taking home at least $5-$10 in gift cards weekly just for about a half an hour of my time collectively. For simply reading the email they send you, sending websites hits, signing up for interesting newsletters, and printing coupons, you get rewarded with gift cards and other things, various prizes, like movie tickets and the such. Sign up to take surveys and earn ridiculously fast. They are all very easy and ask you basic questions about things you buy or use every day. I would highly suggest them for those of us who are struggling this holiday season and could use a few extra bucks to throw around for stocking stuffers, small presents, and whatever else you might need. The gift cards are for places like Walmart, Amazon, Footlocker, AMC Movies, Applebee's, Banana Republic, Barnes & Noble, Bath and Body Works, Bertucci's, Border's, Chili's, CVS, Dave & Buster's, Disney, Ebay, Gap, Hollywood...

scarywoodwitch says "Surf Bounty - Shop, Sign up for Useful Newsletters, Get Rewarded" about Surf Bounty - Earn Rewards as You Shop!

scarywoodwitch — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 18:32:25 GMT

I have recently become a member of Surf Bounty. Its a good place to find surveys that pay, newsletters that may be of interest featuring recipes, exercise, health, things of that nature. Refer friends and get $2. The only downfall is that you do not get to be rewarded until you reach $50 worth of points via shopping, siging up for surveys that pay, newsletters, and referring your friends. I still think getting an extra $50 every so often for simply shopping through a portal and telling a few buddies, family, and people of interest is much better than just shopping independently through no channel and getting only what you came with. I would certainly check it out. If its not of interest to you and you feel it a waste of time, don't sign up, but you may find something useful there. Maybe you are looking for something and can find it there and get something for nothing. Isn't that the goal of the frugal bargain shopper, which you may or not be, I certainly am! Thumbs up!!!...

scarywoodwitch says "Half the Calories & Sugar, All The Taste!" about Tropicana - Trop 50

scarywoodwitch — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 23:30:28 GMT

I have recently begun to purchase Trop 50 as we need the nutrients in orange juice, but are both borderline diabetics (me and my child). I often do not have enough iron or folic acid in my diet or citrus fruits in general so this is a good way to get the vitamins, nutrients and minerals I need. Though, its not a high iron product, orange juice in itself helps you use iron more efficiently in your body. It dosen't waste its use, therefore you do not need as much. I'm not a doctor so I'm not saying, don't take supplements, I'm just saying that its good to get maximum use out of these nutrients. I have to admit, also, I love the taste of orange juice! We had cut back on juices for a long time, but this was an indulgence, but I read the carton and realized, really, it wasn't a big deal. Natural sugar is obviously better than the kind you find in fruit punch and things like that. Trop 50 uses Steevia, a natural sweetener that is without calorie, fat, or sugar content.. Everything...
