iriedred says "Awesome product:affordable, excellent/ fast results, easy to use" about L'Oreal Self Tanning Lotions

iriedred — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 14:28:00 GMT

I use L'oreal Sublime Bronzing Self Tanner in the deepest shade. I really love this product for many reasons: its affordable, easy to use, instant color because of the tint, doesn't look orange or streaky at all like most other self tanners I have tried, it dries fast, feels good on the skin and feels good for my skin, doesn't stain clothing or fabrics, smells like summer, a hint of shimmer looks great to go out for the evening, and it's subtle looking (nobody has ever asked me if I use a self tanner.) I naturally have darker skin (to be fair, I do have a darker complexion, olive type) but in the winter I can get pretty pale looking without using this product and when I do use it people can't tell I am using a self tanner. People generally tell me more often that I have 'the most beautiful complexion' or 'look radient' after I have used this product. Other wonderful plusses to this self tanning lotion is that it isn't greasy, rubs in easily (it is almost impossible to get streaky...

iriedred says "So many yummy things to eat, so little itme. 100% Vegetarian" about Udupi Restaurant - Colombia Heights, MN

iriedred — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 09:54:41 GMT

Udupi Restaurant started many years ago but was burnt to the ground. A few years later and a block or two down the street from the original, Udupi has made it's comeback. Udupi has won 'City Pages' restaurant awards several times.

100% vegetarian traditional Indian dishes from different regions of India are fresh tasting, authentic, and mouth watering. The menu can be mind boggling at first, but if you take your time to look it over and ask LOTS of questions to your waiter/ess, you can have a very memorable and delicious food experience. Waiters/waitresses are more than happy to explain what is what in lay terms and even happy to have a nice chat about India and its food and culture or whatever else might come up.

I have never had a dish at Udupi that I didn't like. Udupi's curry dishes are a favorite of mine. They have the most perfect balance of everything that goes into the dish that even curry haters have been known to be converted here to curry lovers. Regional dishes are a wonderful...

iriedred says "Not a great phone, would be OK for light/emergency only users." about Motorola - Razr V3 Cell Phone

iriedred — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 08:30:33 GMT

Have not been thrilled about this phone or the brand. Have had several Motorola's in the past and have not been satisfied with any of them. With this RAZR features are basic and might be a good phone for someone who doesn't use it much or depend on it for anything except emergencies. It doesn't always ring when I am getting an incoming call, a problem I have had with my other Motorola phones. PRO's:One thing I like about this phone is that it does have a vibrate feature, which is very handy. Voice dial is quite handy and works well for me but I wish you could store more than just a few names (I think the maximum storage for voice dialing is 9 or 10.) Other CON's:VERY short battery life; limited or no downloads for certain types of ring-tones and games; no message waiting or missed call indicator light on the exterior of the phone; reception, even with all bars is choppy most of the time with lots of missed words to confuse conversations, no option to set wallpaper as calendar.

I would...

iriedred says "Awesome all in one machine-easy, fast, quality." about Hewlett Packard Photosmart C5180 Printer

iriedred — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 06:50:39 GMT

This machine is wonderful for an everyday computer user and a person who wants good quality prints from a reasonably priced all-in-one machine. It prints fast in just black, pictures are a bit slower, but really great quality if you use the special photo ink. Photo ink is a must if you want your treasured photos to last without fading or discoloring over time. It prints in black and color, copies, scans, and prints photos. It has features I haven't even used yet and discover wonderful things about this unit every time I use it. You can choose the paper you use to optimize print quality, choose how many copies and if you want them in black and white or color, chose to scan and enlarge or shrink, and tons of other great, usable features that are easy to figure out how to use. The only con is that sometimes when printing a large quantity (a little more than one ream of paper) or use it repetitively for an extended amount of time continuously (2 1/2 hours or more), it can stop occasionally......
