LOVE IT!
 
Review Date: May 13, 2007
Reviewer: Alisa L. Forpahl, Otsego, MN USA
I have naturally curly hair. If I don't use product it is more of a loose wavy curl. For those days that I want the BIG curl I use Curl Life. It gives me TIGHT curls. I love the fact that I get the curls without a heavy feeling of having a lot of product in my hair. I simply put in and use my diffuser! I LOVE IT! I have tried all the "Big Name" products and this is the most effective and probably the most reasonably priced because you don't need to use a lot of it! My hair is a couple of inches past my shoulders and very thick. I only use about a nickel to quarters worth for my entire head! A little goes a long way!
Very good "top up"
 
Review Date: April 1, 2009
Reviewer: A.M.Boughey, Rochester, MN
My wife has a perm about once a year, and relies on good quality shampoo and conditioner to maintain the look and feel she wants. Matrix Curl.life has been a very good product and lives up to it's recommendation by most professional stylists we know. It's expensive, but when you pay a lot for a hair treatment you want it to last. The Contour milk is her favorite. It's a supplement to the shampoo and conditioner, and it goes on quickly and easy for an extra bounce, or that just curled look without feeling heavy or sticky. My only two complaints - Can we buy it in bigger containers please? and how about another fragrance other than Watermelon? 4 Stars

Review Date: October 10, 2009
Reviewer: Julie, Connecticut
My hair turns to straw in the summer humidity. Smooth Down is the only shampoo I've found that makes my hair behave without using alot of other styling products such as pommades which just make my hair look greasy. I use the Smooth Down conditioner. If you have limited funds, pick the Smooth Down shampoo over the conditioner.

Review Date: January 8, 2010
Reviewer: R. Carnovale, Toledo, Ohio
Okay, it's hand sanitizer, not perfume. It's in a big, big bottle, perfect for the school library in which I work, and it came within the promised amount of time. That makes it five stars in my book.
Nice to have a big supply of Purell!
 
Review Date: July 9, 2010
Reviewer: ThistleFlower, Ohio
I love this huge bottle of Purell as I can refill all my littler bottles throughout the cold and flu season. The easy pump bottle make it a breeze to use and refill other bottles. The price is right, too, and makes it more economical than constantly buying all those little sizes.

The product is perfect. However it was not packaged for mailing properly and the pump to was broken. It also had leaked all over the inside of the box.
Not the same product as in the smaller pumps.
 
Review Date: September 30, 2009
Reviewer: Magster, US
I usually buy large refill bottles of GermX from Walmart for around $7, but for some reason they don't seem to carry it any more. I had also read that it's recommended to use hand sanitizer with at least 65% alcohol, ya know, to actually kill the germs. So, knowing that GermX is only 63% and that the small pump bottles of Purell are 65%, I thought I'd go ahead and spend the extra (about $20!) cash for the jumbo Purell.

Well, I won't do it again. This product only has 62% alcohol and to be quite honest, it doesn't smell nearly as pleasant as the GermX.

Over-priced & under-sanitized = unhappy customer.

first of all, it was almost impossible to find Kevin Murphy shampoo locally. Once I found that amazon carried it AND offered a large quantity with a great deal for shipping, I went for it. The product arrived very fast, exactly as advertised, thanks to the retailer who sent this, thanks to Amazon, you came through for us again. Thanks!

Thrilled
 
Review Date: March 11, 2010
Reviewer: Marcia J. Wise, Van Wert, Ohio
I have used 'hot curlers' for over 30 years and was pleasantly surprised how much I like my new Hot Tools Professional. It gives me a softer more gentle curl, which I really prefer and although I was apprehensive about the flocking I have found that my hair wraps easier and quicker with the flocking. One thing I really love are the clips. I won't buy any curler set that doesn't come with the metal clips because none of the other types hold the curler in my hair. This set not only came with the metal clips but they work even better than any other metal clips I have ever had. Kudos!!!

I also appreciate the locking lid and the clip storage area built into the set. It makes it excellent for storing at home and especially for travel. I would not hesitate to buy this product again and will enthusiastically recommend it to others.
Really good rollers
 
Review Date: February 12, 2010
Reviewer: May Mclauchlan,
I love these rollers. They heat up quickly, and the rollers are coated with this soft fuzzy like fabric so the hair does not slide off when you are curling and does not burn your fingers. It does a great job on my hair which is a bit fine, my daughters'which is normal and it also works great on her extensions.
Hot rollers
 
Review Date: November 28, 2009
Reviewer: Luv, Canada
I have mid back length hair. They are naturaly curly. With this set of rollers I would need more of the medium size rollers so that my hair gets a nice big curl with less fuzz. This product I rate well but I expected more defined big curls with less fuzz !!!

They don't get hot enough. I preheat for 20 minutes, leave them in for 30 minutes and its as if they were not in at all. I am very surprised, I will just toss them, they aren't worth the money shipping them back.

Hand Springs
 
Review Date: January 25, 2008
Reviewer: Richard C. Law,
They have become hard to find in the retail world. This was the X-heavy spring I was looking for.
Fantastic Product - Heavy Spring
 
Review Date: April 9, 2008
Reviewer: Robert Robinson, El Paso, Texas United States
This is a great product at a great price. These have the heavy spring that gives a great workout. Squeezing these 25 times is like squeezing others 100 or more times. Definitely the best I could find, after searching local for about three days. Even with shipping these proved to cost about 20% less than the ones that I could find locally, which had the weaker spring. Better product, less cost, what else is there?
Nice
 
Review Date: January 29, 2009
Reviewer: Divad, Colorado, Denver USA
Exactly what I expected. These will help build your forearms. Black is a pretty good resistance for starting out.
Blue is heavy, black is x-heavy
 
Review Date: November 23, 2009
Reviewer: TH,
The black is actually the x-heavy and the blue is the heavy.

I have been using this type of grip for over 15 years now. Of all the types I've used this type is my favorite (hard handles with a spring as opposed to padded handles, rubber bands, or individual finger springs). Most of the other kinds are either very uncomfortable, or try to be too comfortable so that you can't feel that they are even working. The undersides of your fingers and the pad of your thumb will probably be sore when you first start using this, but that will go away. You will definitely feel it in your forearm. I recommend sanding the seams on the plastic handles for added comfort. One good exercise is to put a penny in between the handles and see how long you can go without dropping the penny. A minute is usually pretty good. Much more than that and its time to upgrade.

One thing that I'm not sure of yet about these is that previous models that I've used tended to last about 6 months to a year (depending on how much you use it) and then would develop a crack just below the spring and snap. Thankfully, the coil doesn't unwind or anything. The handle just breaks off and you have to get a new one. When I could buy these in a local sporting goods store for $3, that was ok. But I hope that these last a bit longer.
good
 
Review Date: March 31, 2010
Reviewer: Robert A. Berger, Akron, OH
I have used others in the past (not from this company) that say theirs are "extra heavy"...yeah right. These are very good and I noticed significant results in just 3 weeks. They do tend to create calices on your fingers (if you have small hands), but within about a week you won't even notice them. Highly recommending the black pair.

Review Date: June 6, 2010
Reviewer: J. Chaiken, Bahias de Huatulco, MEX
Hand exercisers are very hard to find in sporting goods stores, but I need them for treatment of brachialis atrophy. The seller's website makes clear the choices they have available. The black, extra heavy, is just right for my hands, but there is a metal ring at the top that slides around when the exercisers are being used and makes a sound that annoys my family.
It is what it is
 
Review Date: October 14, 2008
Reviewer: J. Nierhaus, MI
As long as you don't expect anything fancy, which it's obviously NOT, then this product works. The thing I *don't* like about it is that my fingers constantly slip up the top making too much pressure on my fore fingers. I suggest going with aomething that has a slip-grip.
Disappointing !!!
 
Review Date: January 17, 2009
Reviewer: D. F. Patten, Ft Bragg NC
Unless you are very young , weak, a small and petit woman with absolutely no grip strength to begin with , these will not help you . They appear in the picture to be similar to the "Voit" hand grippers from back in the day (the pic looks identical)which were very good, but they are not . The Company ships promptly and service is good but the product I got was not like the one pictured , different shade blue (who cares) but the resistance I needed in an "extra heavy weight" wasn't there. What can ya expect for $3.00 . The company offered to give a buck off for my disappontment but even this review isn't worth my time , it's a public service.
Respectfully
Wasted my money
 
Review Date: May 22, 2009
Reviewer: T. Center,
First of all it says that blue is "extra heavy tension," it is not. The package says that black is. I've been looking for a good pair since mine broke some years ago, and this is the worst one yet. They don't tell you the pounds of resistance in the description, so here it is:
blue - heavy - 24lbs
black - xtra heavy - 48lbs
I didn't get the resistance I ordered, and if I had I still wouldn't have wanted them. I got ripped off.
Not a good product
 
Review Date: July 9, 2009
Reviewer: P. Randazzo,
Item was pictured incorrectly on the website so that it needed to be replaced with the correct item. The correct hand grips were defective as one grip was a different tension than the other.

Product Description

How is our Carbamide Peroxide Teeth Whitening Kit different from other tooth whitener kits? The Carbamide Peroxide Teeth Whitening Kit uses fast-acting 35% carbamide peroxide in a stabilized pH balanced formula. Other lower strength teeth whitener gels may not deliver results as quickly or completely as Carbamide Peroxide Teeth Whitening Kit. Also, there are no harmful acids or abrasives to damage your teeth or gums. Teeth whitener products sold over-the-counter in drugstores are under 6% hydrogen peroxide and they will NOT effectively bleach your teeth

Product Details

  • A simple kit at a great price
  • All gel is made in the USA 36%
  • These gels are safe and WILL NOT hurt the enamel on teeth.
  • The mouth piece is form fitting
  • One 10 cc of gel. This will whiten your teeth naturally and not artificially

Results just after one use
 
Review Date: July 24, 2007
Reviewer: T. Drage, The OC, California
Today was my first day trying this out. The delivering was fast and the instructions were easy. The only problem I had was getting a successful mold of my teeth. You take the thin mouth guard and put it in boiling water for a few seconds then place on your teeth.. The rubber kept folding in so I had to try my best and re-do it..but honestly for such a low price I didn't care. After just 30 minutes I took out the mouth guard and saw the my teeth were much whiter. I would estimate that after 3, maybe 4 days my teeth will be perfectly white. Works better then white strips by far, especially since you don't have some slimy thing falling off your teeth. With practice of the teeth molding I would say this is by far the most inexpensive and effective way to go. 5 stars..
This is a GREAT product!
 
Review Date: September 9, 2007
Reviewer: M. Agnone, New Jersey
I used this as soon as I received it in the mail--quick delivery. Within a few days of usage my tooth stains were gone--mostly from coffee which is my passion. This product is the same that dentists sell for MUCH, MUCH more than the price listed here at Amazon. One tip--just make sure that the trays are trimmed slightly below the gum line or else you will have some blanching of the gums and some sensitivity. I, like other reviewers, felt that the trays didn't fit as snuggly.No big deal! Sometimes before I go to bed I smear a small film on my front teeth and my teeth are a nice consistant white!
Good Value for the Money
 
Review Date: September 7, 2007

The gel is powerful. As long as the form fits your teeth it will not ooze gel. Does not taste good. But for the money I'd buy this again.

Review Date: August 16, 2010
Reviewer: Kay From L.A.,
It's the same stuff dentists use. My teeth have never been whiter. I use this regimen about twice a year for beautiful white teeth. I apply the gel directly to the teeth using a q-tip then put the tray on for half an hour. I rinse and do it again for another half hour (total of one hour), for 3 days. I will definitely repurchase and have referred friends and family to this product. If the gel gets clogged, just stick a clean pin down the nozzle to unclog it.
The same stuff your dentist uses--for a LOT less.
 
Review Date: August 16, 2007
Reviewer: D. Kelley, Alabama, United States
I didn't take care of my teeth when I was younger, and it showed. When I had to have two permanent teeth pulled (luckily hard-to-see back teeth!) before I turned twenty, it was a wake up call. I started taking care of my teeth, and I saved up the money to get them all fixed at the dentist. (Hard stuff when you're a poor college kid, but definitely worth the money!) Many root canals, fillings, and a cleaning later, my teeth were in tip-top shape, but they still looked yellow.

I tried whitening strips, gels, rinses, you name it. They helped, but not nearly enough, so I figured it was time to pull out the big guns. I asked my dentist about whitening, and he gave me an estimate of $500. That included custom-made whitening trays and 35% carbamide peroxide to take home and use. I was almost willing to cough this up to erase the stains of poor-dental-hygiene past.

Luckily, I decided to talk to my dental hygienist uncle before paying that kind of money. He told me I could get at-home bleaching kits online that were the exact same as what the dentist offered, but for a lot less money. He told me that regular in-store whiteners would work, but it would take a lot of time and money to get my teeth back to their original pearly whiteness, since they contained 10% carbamide peroxide maximum. He showed me this product, and I bought it; he said it was what he used, and he has perfect, movie-star-white teeth, with no veneers, bonding, or anything--and he's a coffee junkie. I also bought an 8-pack of 35% carbamide peroxide syringes without the mouth trays.

When it arrived, per said uncle's suggestion, I started using it nightly for one hour, right before brushing and going to bed (except the day I got it--I couldn't resist using it ASAP then). In three days, my teeth whitened what took a month to achieve with whitening strips. Within a week, I had near snow white teeth. Needless to say, I highly recommend this product! (But you probably should see your dentist and get his a-okay first, because if you have any cavities or enamel problems, your mouth will be extremely sensitive and in a world of hurt after whitening with something this strong.)

My only gripes with this are with the included trays and sensitivity. For twelve bucks, I honestly didn't care that the mouth trays were hard to fit and uncomfortable. However, even though I didn't mind, they were still a hassle nonetheless. The whitener also made my teeth a tad bit sensitive, but it was bearable, and any peroxide tooth whitener is likely to cause sensitivity, especially at high strengths--but, again, that still doesn't mean the sensitivity didn't happen or wasn't uncomfortable. For both of those faults, I subtracted one star. Since this product isn't perfect for the aforementioned reasons, I couldn't give it 5 stars in good conscience.

But it's amazing regardless, and I highly recommend it! You can't beat the price--it's the EXACT same stuff your dentist will give you, only insanely, mind-bogglingly cheaper. If your teeth aren't very stained, you might fare better going with something less potent to avoid possible sensitivity, but it's your call.
Works Good
 
Review Date: October 17, 2007
Reviewer: Tim S. Kroeger,
This stuff works pretty well.... The trays are not very good as previously commented on, but the gel does whiten your teeth a few shades. It does not give you ultra white teeth but it still works better than anything else that you can buy. Good deal for less than $20 with shipping.
Awesome tooth whitening
 
Review Date: October 3, 2007
Reviewer: Sommer, Santa Cruz, CA
The only reason I gave this a four was because the trays are kind of hard to use, and really don't fit the teeth so well. They still work, so I guess that it doesn't matter so much. Basically the whitening gel works really well, but it will make your teeth super sensitive. I am currently using sensodine toothpaste, so the sensitivity didn't last long. Only needed half of one syringe in order to completely whiten all of my teeth, which was five uses for me. The instructions say to only put it on your front six teeth, but I put it on the entire tray since the stupid strips Ive used in the past didn't whiten the back. I'm never buying any strips again, this works much faster and is a MUCH better value. Just be careful and be sure not to get any on your gums.
Good but not fresh

This is generally a very nice product and it works very well. But I suggest that if you want to buy this, buy it from ebay. The one that I got from here was more expensive and the gel was partially dried and it had become very stiff and it was very hard to get it out of the syringe. I bought four times the amount of gel from ebay for half of the same price and it was fresh and more effective. Also be careful when you put the thermoforming trays in boiling water. If you keep it there more than a few seconds it suddenly shrinks and totally looses its shape and becomes useless.
Wow

After struggling with Crest Whitestrips Supreme Professional Strength 84 strips to get some decent whitening, I decided to give this product a try. What a difference a few days make! Not only does it whiten faster, one application once a day for 15 minutes is all it takes. You'll notice a difference after one use, and a very big difference after three days.

My only complaint, and it's why I can't give it five stars, is that they need to include four, not two, mouthpieces. I totally screwed up 'molding' the first one, and learning from what I did wrong, was able to do the second one semi-successfully. These mouthpieces are inexpensive, so not including more of them is simply the manufacturer being cheap. You can get more at your local drug store for about a buck or two.

So in summary: Dump the whitestrips, and try this product. It really is quite amazing. And if you notice sensitivity to your teeth (I didn't), you can pick up a tube of Sensodyne Toothpaste for Sensitive Teeth and Cavity Prevention, Maximum Strength, Extra Whitening, 6-Ounce Tubes (Pack of 3) and use that.

I think the gel is very good. It does the job like it should. The only issue that I have is the terrible trays they sent along to use. They are so cheaply made. I have used other trays before that were easy to form for use. These are terrible. Unless you have your own trays I do not suggest purchasing this product.
Good to use when fresh

After using this once it worked amazingly, making my teeth many shades whiter with one use. I used my custom made trays that I got from a different whitening system. It was strong so I allowed a few days rest to allow my gums to heal before trying to use it again but I ended up forgetting that I had it and I had to throw out the rest since it was no longer fresh. After a week the whiteness of my teeth faded.
I told my parents about how great it was and ordered 3 more, one for my mother, father and myself. But when we all used it, it wasn't the same. I could barely feel any tingling in my mouth as I used it and after using it I saw no difference in my teeth, my parents barely saw any difference in their teeth either. If you purchase this do so at your own risk as you may not get fresh gel.
What a hassle

The product wasn't what I expected but you be the judge. You have to boil the trays to fit your teeth and it totally shrinks to small It's A hassle and you do not get the results you expect.
not worth your money
