Peter Thomas Roth Sheer Moisture Defense Lotion with SPF 30

Good SPF, but way too greasy

I avoid products with Avobenzone as I find that they tend to be very greasy. This was no exception. I actually have to blot my face after application, which is counter-intuitive. Maybe better for winter.

DDF Daily Protective Moisturizer SPF 15

A little greasy, not good for summer. Perhaps better for winter.

Moisturizes ok. No clogged pores or breaktouts. Wish it had higher SPF.

Lather Bamboo Silk Foaming Face Scrub with Lemongrass

Good scrub

As far as scrub goes, it is works fine. Foams a bit, grains are size of sand.

Tom's of Maine Natural Long-Lasting Deodorant Stick

Good

I use deodorant to protect my skin from rubbing raw, not bo. My only caveat is that the packaging is tp big. It lasts forever and may go bad. It is also difficult to travel with.

Crest Pro-Health Clinical Gum Protection Toothpaste

Everything but the kitchen sink...

They claim to do everything, so I guess it is a good all around toothpaste. My teeth are sensitive, accordingly I only use toothpaste for sensitive teeth. It was not better nor worse than other toothpaste.

Aveda Madder Root Color Conditioner

Great, light conditioner

Whether or not it is in my head (no pun indended),I swear it gives my black hair a bit of red in addition to shine. I've been using it for years and will continue to purchase. The latest bottle seems to be a little thicker than before, which is an improvement. It seemed a little runny before.

Tweezerman Pushy and Nail Cleaner

Great, will save on to the pedicurist

Pointy enough to clean cuticles, but not sharp enough to cut into your skin.

Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion

No more itchies

for some reason, I started getting the itchies. I was scratching 'til I got raw, now I got scabbies. Prescription strength Hydro-cortisone 2.5% did nothing. Aveeno soothed my skin.

The Body Shop Shea Shower Cream

Non-drying

I don't use bar soaps, because they tend to be drying and they do not rinse off well. This is great, foams up well and rinses off nicely. Enriched with shea, so it gives a bit of moisture. Great for winter.

The Body Shop Peppermint Cooling Foot Spray

Best

My favorite foot spray. Tingly, cooling and minty, not greasy like other brands, so you don't get slippery oil slicks in-between your toes. Been using for years, and noticed that the bottle keeps getting smaller as the price has remained the same.
