  • Debbie - Allergic to this product!

    I had an allergic reaction to this product after about a week of use. I thought the irritation was from the drying out of my skin and a sunburn that I had at the same time, so I waited a week and tried it again, and now my face is burning, itching, red and swollen. I am using an antihistamine and steroids to try to get rid of the reaction and return my face to normal. It did seem to work for the acne, but try in a small, sensitive area for at least a week, first!

  • Helen - Love It!!

    After using Dove and Finesse hair products I thought I was loosing my hair. Both products made my hair so baby fine I was ready to give up and into hair replacements. A friend suggest Organix. So I purchsed the shampooo, conditioner and mousse. I have only 1 word to say..."Wow". My hair has not felt so full, so thick, so soft in so long. I can not believe it!! I am a Organix user for life!!

  • Ruby Kim - Milk Production Doubled!

    I normally don't write reviews but I had to for Motherlove More Milk. I needed to improve my milk production because I wanted to stop supplementing my newborn on formula and also to start freezing milk by the time I return to work. Before taking these capsules, I was lucky to even pump 2oz each session. After taking the capsules, I slowly started seeing an increase of milk each day. I'm now in day 9, and I'm now pumping 4oz each session. I hope over time, I'll be pumping more milk but I'm just glad I'm able to finally stop feeding my baby formula and give her my breastmilk instead.

  • Hawkeye - Don't waste your money!

    Don't waste your money on this blender. We used it 15 times to blend since we bought it. We did not chop ice or abuse it. Now it is dead! We had an Oster blender for over 30 years and it still worked when we bought this plastic piece of junk. Of course now it out of warranty but from what I read there IS NO WARRANTY If you buy through Amazon beyond the 30 day return policy. Gee I wonder why they don't warranty their product? I'm searching for a new blender. It won't be a Ninja.

  • SHinnenkamp - Keeps various sized beverages cold in high heat, not just cans but bottles too!

    My family has always used the foam or neoprene can coozies at our lake cabin and that's just what we've always used...until now! After ordering this can coozie, I'm throwing all the junk ones away and replacing them with these! The other ones never actually keep our drinks cold, yes, it didn't get super warm, but not cold. This stainless steel can cooler most definitely keeps my beverages nice and cold for quite a good chunk of time! It actually comes as a two piece set, the top screws off and you place your beverage inside, then screw it back on. This is genius because it keeps my beverage secure and doesn't slip around. I was worried it wouldn't fit anything other than a can of pop, but it easily holds cans, bottles, larger sized cans, even a water bottle (without putting the top piece back on) Overall, I will definitely be buying more because of how easy it is to use and how cold it kept things. I purchased this item at a discount in return for my honest and unbiased review of the product. The views expressed here are my own, based on my personal use and experience with the product.

  • John J. Zoch III - Great album at a very affordible price.

  • tarynm - TV will never be the same

    We walk in the living room and say "Xbox On" and the Tv and cable box turn on for us, as well as turning off at night "Xbox Turn Off". We love the SNAP feature where my husband can be playing Forza 5 and snap TV in the other screen so I can listen to the news, or if he wants he can play his Xbox One game and watch football at the same time. With all of the apps available with Xbox One and the Kinect that comes with it (which Kinect v2 is far and wide way better than Kinect v1)
