"Ultraseal Puncture Prevention....oh, and repair!!

Advantages: IT WORKS ON PUNCTURES AS WELL AS PREVENTING THEM. CHEAP CONSIDERING THE COST OF HIGH GRADE TYRES.
Disadvantages: TOOK ME A WHILE TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO USE THE VALVE REMOVER. NOTHING NEGATIVE

...The other day I found the sneaky head of a panel pin (thin nail) sticking out of my SECOND new tyre (previous puncture!!). Not sure how long it would be or if indeed it had gone straight through, I was contemplating new tyr again. Bridgestobne 021 on zx7r....kerching!!! I was directed to a bottle of Ultraseal and told it would fix it. Quite simply, took the valve inners out witht he tool provided in the box. Air comes out FAST but squeezed the recommended amount in, put around 20psi back into thetyre and pulled the sucker out. To my HORROR it was p**sing air back out. Gutted at this I again read the paperwork and did as it said. Filled tyre up to rock hard and rodde the bike about 4 miles. On returning I found some of the gel had splattered out of the tiny hole, however, the hole was now sealed!!!! The tyre hasnt lost a single...

Repair - Where?

Advantages: None for me
Disadvantages: It didn't repair my minor cracks!

...Within my first week in Italy during the summer my heels began showing signs of minor cracks and roughness due to the flip flops and walking on the sand and rough pebbles etc. Since I was staying with my parents, my Mum presented me with some of her Cracked Heel Repair Cream, I think in the hope that this would stop my grumbling! - Price - This is currently on sale at Boots. For a 60ml tube it has been reduced from £5.49 to £4.39. - Packaging - This tube sits on a flip top lid and the cream is dispensed through a small hole under the lid. - What is it? - The information on the packaging states the following: ~ A cream to be applied twice daily to clean dry skin. ~ Repairs rough, dry, cracked heels. ~ Once the skin is restored, continue to use as necessary to maintain condition. - Is it a success? - The cream is...

Puncture prevention with Ultraseal

Advantages: No more punctures ? Good for any vehicle, extends tyre life, safer travel
Disadvantages: not too good with tubed tyres, only seals punctures on the crown of the tyre

...Various claims on the website ie nasa uses it, the US military etc. Not been targeted at the domestic market over there, now they have an army of distributors in the UK who can come and install it for you or just sell the diy bottles. I have often considered getting something like this so was delighted to give it a try when the chance arose. Although tyres now have an excellent life the one thing that you can say is that if you do have puncture it will be either at an inconvenient time in the rain on a winding narrow road or at speed on a motorway. Whichever it can be anything from a right pain to potentially leathal. This product claims to stop all that. The stuff itself. What it does. You squirt a quantity of this blue liquid into each tyre. There it stays in liquid form going round with the wheel. Not only is...

Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair

Advantages: Protects skin, makes it look healthier
Disadvantages: A bit pricey, takes a few minutes to absorb, smells a bit icky!

...I really like Estee Lauder products but I don't buy them that often because they are so expensive. There has been a lot of hype and advertising surrounding the 'Advanced Night Repair' product recently and I just got a new job so I thought I would treat myself and decided to buy this to see what it was like. The product is meant to help your skin to repair itself from UV and environmental damage and also protect against these strains too before they damage your skin. I figured it must be doing something right since it has been winning awards. So far it has won the Cosmopolitan Beauty Awards 2007 for the Best Age-Defying Serum, The Red Magazine Beauty Awards 2007 for the Best Night Product and it also won Harper's Bazaar 50 Best Beauty Buys 2006 for Anti-Ageing Skin Saver. I really like the design of the bottle. It is quite...

Quick and permanent repairs and fixings

Advantages: Easy to use and creates solid repair
Disadvantages: You need to use it quickly once mixed

...I do know I am something of a sucker for the advertising concerning new products and I do enjoy watching the QVC DIY show on a Sunday morning while I read the Sunday papers. The other week when I was watching I saw the demonstration of Fixwiz repair sticks and I was fascinated. Basically the Fixwiz repair sticks are sticks of an epoxy resin which are brown on the outside, white on the inside, and in order to activate the stuff you just cut off the amount you need and then knead it between your fingers until the brown and the white are fully mixed. As you knead the mixture becomes warm and it takes only minutes before it is ready to use - but remember it takes only minutes to set hard so you need to be ready to use it more of less straight away once it is mixed! I live in a modern house where the walls are 'dry lined' - in other...

Gliss Hair Repair Shine Tonic

Advantages: Leaves hair looking shiny and smelling great
Disadvantages: None that I have found

...this product is most suited to people with dry and damaged hair as Gliss products tend to work as hair repair products as well as doing the intended job. The can also advises that this product should give you brilliant shine and make hair noticeably more supple, therefore causing less breakage. So, does it work? As said previously I am a big Gliss fan so I had pretty high hopes for this spray. The spray is a fine mist so you don't need much to cover your entire head of hair, therefore the can will last you a while so you do get good value for money in my opinion. As for the results I have to say they were pretty impressive. I can't say I particularly noticed my hair being more supple (and I do suffer from regular breakage), it was more the shine aspect that impressed me. The smell was quite strong when first sprayed, though it...

Estee Lauder Night Repair while you sleep

Advantages: Silks, Smooths and Repairs the Skin
Disadvantages: A little pricey, but well worth the money

...I was looking around the beauty counter in my local Debenhams and I was attacked by one of the sales people on the counter. I am usually not a lover of Estee Lauder products, as I do have quite sensitive skin and I have got to be careful of what I use, particularly on my face, as if I use something that irritants the skin my face usually swells up like a balloon, so I was a little hesitant at first about looking into these products. As I have quite a high face colour, my face sometimes looks like a 'glow worm' as I put it, I do have problems finding products that can actually combat this. The shop assistant, pointed me out to three different products which are good for my skin type, but in particular she put great emphasis on this product. When I got home I couldn't wait to try it, and even though it is called night repair...

Skin Repair and a Little Bit More...

Advantages: Nourishes all day
Disadvantages: none that I can think of

...Liz Earle’s Skin Repair is more than just a moisturiser. This cream is part of the Naturally Active Skincare range that are really pampering. For those of you who have read my op on her Cleanse and Polish you will know how much of a fan of her products I am. For those who haven't read it, please do. I discovered Liz Earle's products about 5 years ago. I have tried expensive products and I have tried cheap products but did not feel comfortable with any of them and some of them (including the expensive ones) caused me to have nasty allergic reactions. I saw Liz Earle on QVC explaining about her products. I thought I would give them a try and ordered the 'Today’s Special Value' which at the time included the Cleanse and Polish, Skin Tonic, Eyebright, Skin Repair (Moisturiser), and Intensive Nourishing Treatment. I...

Beyond Repair!!

Advantages: An pleasant enough smell.
Disadvantages: Leaves my hair feeling a tad tangled!

...It has to be noted that I only tried this product due to a free sample. -L'Oreal Conditioners- L'Oreal Elvive have a large number of conditioners and hair care products available, some of which I have listed: * Multi-Vitamins Conditioner * Smooth-Intense Conditioner * Colour Protect Conditioner * Age-Defying Conditioner * Nutri-Gloss Conditioner All of the afore mentioned conditioners have L'Oreal shampoos that the company advises / promotes you to use alongside the conditioners for the best effect. - Nutri-Repair / Anti-Breakage Conditioner - As already stated I received this as a free sample and it lasted 5 washes so I am reviewing the short-term effects of the product. - What it is said to do - * Reduce damage caused by daily brushing and blow drying. * The Ceramide-R it contains helps repair microsplits...

Repairs while you sleep

Advantages: long term benefits
Disadvantages:

...This is yet another Estee Lauder product which I am happy to recommend. There are two types of product in this range, both doing the same thing, one being with extra whitening rcovery complex. This is for those who are concerned with maintaining the fairness of the skin and preventing discoloration or pigmentation. ie more siuted for darker skins or those with freckles. I have tried both and found them to be good although the effects can only be seen after long term use and not immediately unlike some of their other products. I think it works to repair damaged cells and protect new ones that are formed while you sleep. It is non oily and quite light in a lotion form and only a little is needed as it is quite concentrated, so it is still worth the price as you end up using it over a long period of time. Suitable for all skin types I would...
