Beauty Checks

I had just used up one entire bottle on a few of my old cystic pimples that won't go away.  This toner didn't have any effect on my old cysts but did it prevent more pimples?  Not really, because new ones did appear on my face. They however didn't become stubborn cysts like the few I have been having on my chest and on my back.  It's a decent toner for mild acne problem like what my face has.  But for the occasional stubborn cysts resulted from pimples long ago and that refuse to go away, this toner doesn't do a thing to them.  I give this a 3 stars out of 5.   An 8 oz bottle of this toner is currently sold at $7.47 .  Please feel free to disagree with me if you have a totally different experience with this product.

This is a refreshing smelling hand soap that has both the moisturizer and anti-bacterial property.  I love the handy 7.5 Fl oz pump bottle but this fragrance isn't always available at the local drug stores. I'm glad I find the refill bottle for sale online.  I'm compulsive in washing my hands.  But this hand wash doesn't make my hands dry at all even after over washing.  I myself alone use up a 7.5 Fl oz bottle in a about a month. At $3.79, this 32 oz refill bottle is a good deal for me .  This product is made in the USA.

I really love this hand soap for both its antibacterial property and also it's lovely lavender fragrance. The pretty bottle also brightens up my bathroom decor.  Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find this soap in the drug stores for a while.  Has this soap been discontinued?  Why is it so hard to consistently find an antibacteria hand soap that also smells good?  I eventually found them still available on Amazon.com   but the price is more expensive than that what I bought it for, particularly when it was on sale.

This body wash has a really sweet and delicious fragrance. It's silky and smooth formula is quite moisturizing to the skin.  I really like it.  15 fl oz at $2.97.  This product is made in the USA.

This is a decent shampoo for color treated hair.  It lathers very well and it doesn't aggregate the already dry color treated hair like some other brands.  It however doesn't provide the kind of glossy and vibrant shine I expect.  The shampoo hydrates my color treated hair somewhat, and the accompany conditioner of the same line has to be used to do the trick to provide adequate hydration.  Overall, I like this shampoo when I use it with the accompany conditioner of the same line.  ( Available at $4.99 for 12.6 FL oz. )

At $4.27, this hand soap is economical for use as the bathroom staple . But the smell is more like dish detergent. This product is made in the USA.  I've noticed that there aren't that many fragrance options for anti-bacterial hand soap.   When I found one that has a lovely scent, it discontinued.  So I'm back to searching for an anti-bacterial hand wash that smells good.
