According to a promotional e-mail they sent me, you can use the site to:

“Push Up Pro” Workout Tool

MSNBC’s "Does It Work?" feature recently took a look at the As Seen on TV product Push Up Pro.
If you’re thinking of purchasing this product ($19.95 plus shipping and handling), best to read the review first.
Personally, I hate push-ups, so I have zero interest in this bad boy. But for those interested in an effective […]

Book Review: Big Boned, by Meg Cabot

I just finished reading Big Boned, the third book in Meg Cabot’s Heather Wells mystery series, and I’m delighted to report that it’s another hit in the tradition of Size 12 Is Not Fat and Size 14 Is Not Fat Either, the first two books in the series.
In Big Boned, Heather sets out to solve […]

Product Review: Special K2O Protein Water Powered Mix

To say that I was wildly unimpressed with Kellogg’s Special K2O Protein Water would be an understatement. But just after one of my readers suggested that I give the powdered mix a try, my contact over at Kellogg’s offered me some free samples, which conveniently arrived yesterday. So far, I’ve tried the Pink Lemonade and […]

AcneFree Update: It’s Been Two Weeks, and I’ve Got Results!

After two weeks of using the AcneFree anti-acne cleansing system, which claims visible results in just two weeks, I am delighted to report the following positive outcomes:

Dramatically fewer blackheads everywhere, and particularly on my nose and chin.
NO cystic pimples. I had a couple last week during the worse-before-it-gets-better period, but they have surfaced and vanished.
No […]

Acne Inspiration

After reading and thinking about Cory’s post yesterday, I finally broke down and bought the acne treatment package I’ve been eyeing at Costco for the last month and a half: AcneFree, from University Medicine.
It’s one of those “compare to Proactiv!” deals.

3-step formula
Cleanser, toner, repair lotion
Time-release, 24-hour acne fighting protection
Use twice a day

But this stuff, at […]

Voluntary Product Review: Garden Harvest Toasted Chips

When Glam offered me a free sample of Nabisco’s new Garden Harvest Toasted Chips, I jumped at the change to, well, get free food. And I was pleasantly surprised by how good they were. I tried the Vegetable Medley and Banana varieties, and I liked both of them. The chips have roughly the same consistency […]

What’s in Your Skin Care Products?

I was talking with a client who specializes in skin care about my current facial moisturizer, which I won’t name. Because he’s an expert, I asked him for a recommendation regarding some of the products I’m using now. He checked the ingredients and got back to me with some alarming news
Ingredients Water, Glycerin, […]

Product Review: Special K20 Protein Water

UPDATED MARCH 5, 2007 BELOW THE JUMP
When I heard that Special K was putting out new protein products, I was pretty psyched. When I got an offer for free samples of the protein water, I was even more psyched. The name is clever, the packaging attractive, the colors appealing, and it’s WATER with […]
