stef42678 says "Great for Easy Cleaning" about Clorox Bleach Wipes

stef42678 — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 07:52:58 GMT

I am pretty much a neat freak around my home, because I can't stand spills or messes, but I also hate spending countless hours cleaning. These Clorox Bleach Wipes are a perfect solution for easily cleaning and disinfecting. I found a container of these wipes on sale for around $3 and the container holds 35 wipes. I love that they come in a clean fresh scent fragrance, but also lemon, orange and lavendar so the wipes deodorize and had a great clean smell to any room. These wipes seem to be much thicker and stronger than other wipes I have tried and take the hard work out of cleaning. They are great for different surfaces, including counters and floors, but I use these mainly in the kitchen. They are great for wiping up stains and spills from foods, grease and cooking and get rid of germs and viruses too. These wipes leave surfaces clean without having to scrub or spend a lot of time on cleaning. The container easily dispenses the wipes for a quick spill cleanup and are great...

stef42678 says "Soft and Moisturized Lips" about Kiehl's Lip Balm #1

stef42678 — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 07:37:13 GMT

I really love beauty products, but my number one staple in products is always lip balm. I hate putting balms with harsh chemicals or animal products on my skin, so I am a big fan of Kiehl's because they make high quality products that are all natural. I found this Kiehl's Lip Balm #1 on sale for $8 at the Kiehl's store and it is probably the best lip balm I have ever used because not only is it chemical free and all natural, but it is really great for my lips. The tube is pretty large, so a little product goes a long way and you get your money's worth in every drop. The lip balm is cooling and a therapy for your lips. It goes on easy without feeling oily or greasy. I like that the lip balm is fragrance free, so that anyone can use it, men or women. Once the lip balm is on, it starts working right away. I feel a little tingle and it adds so much moisture to my lips. I work outside in the heat and in the cold wind during the winters, so I hate chapped lips. This lip balm...

stef42678 says "Comfy and Cozy Blanket" about Sunbeam Electric Blanket - queen size

stef42678 — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 07:31:11 GMT

I have always been a summer girl and really hate winters, mainly because I hate being cold. At night I constantly wear layers and have several blankets on my bed. I found a great solution for keeping cozy and comfortable at night with this Sunbeam Electric Blanket - queen size. It fits snuggly on my bed, and I bought this blanket in white so it matches everything. It seems to repel dust, so it doesn't wear and tear over time. I bought this for about $55 and it is the perfect way for keeping warm in the winters. It has a really long cord that connects to both sides of the blanket, but the temperature is easy to control. By a flip of the switch, you can switch it on or off and it has a comfort level on the dial, so you can be a moderate temperature at 5 or less, or if you want to get really warm you can dial in 6-10. I typically turn it on about thirty minutes before I go to bed, so that my bed is warm when it is time to go to sleep. I never overheat, and the dial is easy...

stef42678 — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 07:24:50 GMT

I live in a small studio apartment, so I am always looking for solutions to keep my place clean, and I am especially concerned about vacuuming and keeping the place free of dust. I use a large vacuum for my floors, but often times I just need to do a quick pickup and this Black & Decker CHV1400 14.4-Volt Cyclonic DustBuster is great for easy cleanup. What I love about this vacuum is that it is rechargeable and bagless so it is perfect when I spot some dirt and dust, or need to cleanup something fast. I like the soft green color and it doesn't have a very loud noise, plus the charge on the dustbuster lasts a long time, so that I can do an entire room. The dustbuster is lightweight and the perfect solution for getting my room cleaned. It picks up tiny particles you can see as well as all the dust and dirt you can't see.

stef42678 says "Great for Clean and Sensitive Teeth" about Sensodyne iso-active Foaming Gel

stef42678 — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 07:51:17 GMT

During the winter, my teeth become extremely sensitive in the cold, as well as I periodically suffer from sensitive teeth with hot or cold foods, so I need a toothpaste that won't add to the pain. Sensodyne iso-active Foaming Gel is a great solution for anyone who has sensitive teeth, or wants pain free toothbrushing. The Sensodyne brand is great for those with sensitive teeth and I have been using their products for a while and this is my new favorite. Instead of a regular toothpaste tube, this formula comes in a small canister that squirts the gel. The nozzle requires just a small amount of pressure and instantly your toothbrush is covered in enough toothpaste. The gel has a great foaming action that works in your mouth. The taste is mint, but not too strong and really cleanses your mouth and your teeth. I love how refreshing my mouth feels after using, and the gel makes my brush feel soft against my teeth and gums. This is inexpensive and a great way to get your teeth...

Not only does this make preparing food a lot easier and less time consuming, but it helps me eat healthy because it is perfect for fruits and vegetables.

I use this on my hands and feet and it really seems to get rid of flaky skin and harsh calluses on my toes from walking around barefoot. The formula doesn't have a heavy or medicine scent and can be used everyday because it is soft and gentle. I like that the product is absorbed into my skin quickly, and really makes my skin softer and smoother.

stef42678 — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 04:51:00 GMT

I love to get outdoors and my work makes me be outside all day as well as in and out of salt water sometimes, so my hair really suffers. Lately I have noticed more damage to my ends as they are dry and split, so I need therapy for my hair which this Dove Intense Damage Therapy Conditioner truly is. This product is high quality and gentle on my hair, but isn't too pricey. I found it on sale for less than $5 and it works really great.

stef42678 says "Long and Full Lashes" about Rimmel London Sexy Curves Mascara

stef42678 — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 04:45:10 GMT

I really love trying new makeup products, especially when it enhances my daily look, so I really love this Rimmel London Sexy Curves Mascara because it makes my eyelashes look amazing. I found this mascara on sale at Walmart for $7 and it was definitely worth the price. The bottle is a bright purple color with a lot of product and the wand is very modern and sleek to give a perfect application with the mascara. What I loved most about this mascara is how great it made my eyelashes look. It added a lot of definition to my lashes and made each lash look fuller and healthier. The wand gets just a little of the mascara on every bristle so that when you apply it, it seperates each lash to coat it in a great natural black color. The lashes became curled and fuller in volume and didn't clump. I love wearing this mascara at night for a sensual eye look, but it is also great for everyday wear because it is long lasting, doesn't clump or smudge and it never irritates my eyes. It gives...

stef42678 says "Cheese with lots of flavor" about Alouette Cheese

stef42678 — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 05:30:40 GMT

I am not a huge fan of cheese, but I really love this Alouette cheese because it is great for appetizers and sandwiches and comes in great flavors. My favorite variety was the spreadable cheese because it tastes so good on bread or crackers, and can make a great dip too. I loved the Light flavors, the garlic and herbs and the cucumber dill because it went perfect with vegetable sandwiches and was a great appetizer to serve at parties with carrots and celery. The sweet Berries and Cream variety was a great dessert topping, and was so good on bagels in the morning. The cheese also comes in Brie form which is great for parties and sandwiches.

I really love to bake in the kitchen, but I get so frustrated when I am baking and the batter sticks to the dishes or doesn't bake evenly in the oven. These Pyrex Bread and Cake Pans are perfect for all of my baking needs and works so great in the kitchen. I love that they are high quality and durable pans because they are a heavy glass material, but I don't have to worry about them shattering or breaking because they are heat tolerant and work great in the refrigerator for cooling dishes as well as bake up in the oven.

I really love to cook and bake in the kitchen and I finally splurged and bought a KitchenAid Kitchen Aid Pro 6 qt. Mixer which is the best kitchen appliance I have ever owned.
