Relief from watering eyes

Advantages: relieve symptoms of hayfever
Disadvantages: If you miss one, symptoms return fast

...relief tablets are just 98p - and guess what? They contain 10mg Loratadine, just like these ones, so I will definitely try the cheaper option in the future. ~Conclusion~ These really did help my hayfever, and it's good that you only need to take one a day, as it's easy to remember to take them. If you suffer from hayfever, I would definitely suggest giving these a try as I found they provided relief from a runny nose and streaming eyes, providing they were taken continually on a daily basis. *Also posted elsewhere by me...

Bruise relief

Advantages: Seems to clear up bruises
Disadvantages: Careful how you use it

...Arnica bruise relief On a recent quad biking experience, Little Miss managed to crash into a tree and fall down a ditch. Thankfully, apart from a small cut and some HUGE bruises, she was fine, and even went quad biking again. The bruises were of some concern to me because not only was the big one on her leg causing her some discomfort, but they looked awful. I had heard about arnica being good for bruises, but never having used it before, I did a little bit of a finding out exercise before rushing out to buy it. WHAT IS IT? Arnica (Arnica montana) has been used for medicinal purposes since the 1500s and remains popular today to soothe muscle aches, reduce inflammation, and heal wounds and it is often the first remedy used for injuries such as sprains and bruises. Arnica in herbal form is primarily restricted to external use...

Pro relief? No relief

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Stabbing pains in teeth, worsening sensitivity

...I am a Bzzagent and I'm reviewing the toothpaste distributed in their latest campaign. I was sent a full sized sample of Colgate Sensitive Pro Relief, and some small samples to give out to friends and family. What does this toothpaste do? In a nutshell it's supposed to help against sensitivity by blocking tubules which, when you see the microscopic drawing, look like little holes in the tooth along the gum line. 'The open tubules are a pathway to sensitive pain' according to Colgate, and the toothpaste provides occlusion of dentine tubules. Using the Toothpaste You use the toothpaste as you would any other, brushing twice a day, paying particular attention to the gum line. You can also dab a small amount on any particularly sensitive areas close to the gum, using a small amount place on the finger tip and massaging...

Anyone for Hand Relief?

Advantages: Really improves and moisturises the skin
Disadvantages: A bit expensive

...OK I shall get the obvious double entrendre out of the way first. It always makes me giggle when my husband has been working in the garden all day and comes in and moans about how dry his hands are and I as the dutiful wife ask him if he would like some Hand Relief. This used to bring a broad smile to his face until he realised I was offering him Aveda's Hand Relief - an intensively moisturising hand cream and not something else. I first came across this product as a samples which were put into my bag after I had purchased other Aveda products (anyone who has read any of my reviews knows I am quite an Aveda afficionado) and to be honest for years I just used to bin said samples because I used another handcream. Suffering from eczema makes choosing a handcream difficult and having found one that I liked and got on with I wasn't about...

Better Than Water

Advantages: Two worlds melded together very nicely
Disadvantages: Not terribly well drawn characters

...Mike Carey is not a name I'd come across before, but on hearing he'd written the book that the film ''Constantine'' was based on, I was certainly interested in his work. ''Thicker Than Water'' is the fourth in his series involving Felix Castor and whilst that gave me slight pause about coming in to an already well established series, my desire to check out Carey's work outweighed any concerns I had. Felix Castor is an exorcist, attempting to fight the demons, werewolves and zombies that inhabit our world. Not all of them, as his closest friend has a demon living inside him whilst his friends Nicky and Juliet are a zombie and succubus. Mostly, he lets such things be, but if they cause trouble he takes it upon himself to remove them from the world and let us mere humans live in peace. This time around, Castor is implicated in a murder...

Thirsty skin relief

Advantages: Refreshing, hydrating, lasts ages, not heavy on skin
Disadvantages: Expensive

...through. There is silver writing on the front of the pot reading: ?CLINIQUE moisture surge extended thirst relief.? Overall the pot looks cute, typically Clinique and good quality. The Moisturiser? The first thing I noticed about this is the lovely colour! It is a lovely pale pink colour which looks lovely! The texture of the moisturiser isn?t quite what I expected, as it is more like a gel or serum that a moisturiser. Rather than being white it is clear and feels cool to touch. It barely has a smell which goes along with most Clinique products which are fragrance free and therefore very delicate on the skin. The moisturiser is really smooth and feels like silk when you apply it to the skin. It spreads really well and I?ve found that you barely need to use any. I?ve also found it hardly needs any rubbing in as it seems to...

Aveda hand relief - my hands smell like cakes!!

Advantages: It does a great job of moisturising your hands, a little goes a long way
Disadvantages: Bit pricey!!

...Advantages: It does a great job of moisturising your hands, a little goes a long way A bit about me: Generally I am not really one for spending a lot of money on cosmetics or creams. Apart from the odd treat at Christmas or birthdays, I will do a lot of research and pick the product that does the best job for as little cash as possible. Pretty much the area of my beauty regime that I will spend the least on, is my hands which is daft because due to years of eczema, my hands look far far older than I am. I am 35, my hands, bless em, are 60! Eczema has left them dry and extremely sensitive so I need to take care with the products I use. My mum gave me one of her half full tubes of Aveda Hand relief cream insisting that it was fantastic and I should try it. The product: It promise to soothe dry, chapped hands leaving them...

Water, Water, Everywhere

Advantages: Psychologically scary, strong performances from key cast members.
Disadvantages: Too many characters are introduced, the ending is a little silly.

...Walter Salles 2005 film 'Dark Water' is dark and mysterious, a truly chilling remake of Hideo Nakata's Japanese horror film which was originally released in 2002. It's an interesting concept that Walter Salles should take on a film of this sort, he'd previously had success with the film 'The Motorcycle Diaries' but 'Dark Water' is really something far different than this. What's more is that this is a major American remake and yet Walter Salles himself is Brazilian. Although this was not a predictable film for Walter Salles to have taken on, what I will say is that he has done an excellent job here and successfully directed a brilliant horror film. In the 2000s there has been quite a trend for remaking popular Japanese horror films. 'The Ring' films were remade, as too was the 'Ju-on' series, it's only right then that 'Dark Water...
