Aquaphor Healing Ointment, 14 oz (396 g) (Pack of 2)

I use this ointment on my toddler daughter's extremely sensitive skin. It contains no perfumes or dyes that can irritate the skin. It is also extremely effective on my newborns scratch marks on her face--with this ointment, they practically heal overnight. A little goes a LONG way--a large tub like the one above will last forever. Worth it's weight in gold!

Olay Regenerist Daily Regenerating Serum, Concentrated Amino-Peptide Complex, Fragrance Free - 1.7 fl oz

I have tried so many products to just be totally disappointed. But this one does work. The lines under my eys are my problem area and this has helped to make them much less noticeable..
Manufactures take note-- I am tired of the false claims and when I find something that actually works I will buy it. Most I have tried before do not work and should not be advertised as such.

AcneFree Clear Skin Treatments, 3-Step Kit

I am in my early 30's and never had a problem with acne until my mid 20's. I had been using proactiv for quite some time (5 years or so) and it worked pretty well. I say pretty well since it did clear my face some, but my face has not been totally clear in a long time.

Along comes AcneFree which is "better" than Proactiv since you can buy it locally and it contains more of the active ingredient--cool, I am sick of ordering it online and it is cheaper!

Well, I guess you get what you pay for--I don't consider myself to have particularly sensitive skin, but I used AcneFree one time in the morning. So far so good--until 2 am the next morning when I broke out in hives all over my entire body. So no more AcneFree for me, just wanted to give my experience for anyone who might be in the same situation.

MAVALA Stop for Nail Biting and Thumb Sucking


After months of encouraging/pestering our son to stop sucking his thumb (he is four), we finally decided to use a product to help. After doing some research, this one stood out as the most effective. Our son agreed that it was hard to stop on his own, and agreed to "extra help." The results are amazing. It has been 3 weeks, and he essentially stopped sucking after the first application. Now I think the urge/habit is really out of his system. We apply the product every 2 days, and plan to taper it off when it's been a little longer. One setback occurred when we had not applied it for 3 days (the bitter taste had dissipated), and he woke up and announced that he had sucked his thumb overnight. He seemed disappointed in himself for having sucked overnight and was initially resistant to reapplying the product. My recommendation is to be very regular in applying it during the crucial early phase when they need the most help. I am so glad we bought this product!!!!
