First Impressions : Smooth'n Shine Hair Tamer

Hey everyone!!
I got accepted into a new BzzCampaign and I wanted to go ahead and do my 'First Impressions" post for it.

This one came in an actual box... I feel as if I'm moving up in the BzzAgent world!  hehe.

The actual product and the contents of the box.

Okay, so I'm not going to lie - this one makes me a little bit nervous!  I don't like to put chemicals or other harsh things on my hair, so this is a big deal for me.  My hair is really fine and thin and I'm usually terrified that things like this will ruin my hair...  I used to bleach my hair and dye it crazy colors, so I can't say I've always treated it the best. /:

Other than my initial fear of hurting my hair more than helping it, I'm also not expecting much from this product because it is a tamer.  My hair is already pretty 'tame', so I don't think it will do much for me.  But, we shall see!! 

Here is what the kit comes with - Step 1: The Protein Smoothing Treatment, Step 2: Neutralizing Milk, a pair of gloves, a packet of Nourishing Deep Recovery Conditioner, and the instruction booklet.

I got more nervous as I looked through the contents... Why do I need a 'nourishing deep recovery conditioner' if the product is supposed to already be so much less damaging than others?  *panic-mode*  haha.

That's all for my first impressions...  Have you ever tried this product or one like it?? What was your experience with it?

Wish me luck!!!

Final Impressions : Dr. Scholl's

Hi guys!  

I know that I said my next post would be on the versatile/one lovely blog award that I was nominated for, but I'm having a some trouble thinking of 7 random facts about myself!  Haha. That post will still be up soon though

I figured since I just received another BzzKit yesterday that it's probably time for my final impressions on the Dr. Scholl's Massaging Gel Inserts.  (;

I've worn the inserts every day for 10+ days now and I'd have to say that my final verdict is that they're alright.  They're not an amazing miracle product - but I didn't hate them either.

I give them 3 out of 5 stars because as I'd mentioned in my Initial Review, they did take some getting used to, and because the few problems I had with the product were easily resolved.

The main problem I had with these inserts was that they always moved around in my shoe - especially when I was putting my shoe on!  I'm the kind of person who likes to just stick my foot in my shoe and go... I don't want to spend 5 minutes trying to make everything settle right in my shoe.  (I realize that this is probably a trivial thing, so I decided for 3 stars instead of 2! lol)

I'd recommend these inserts to someone who has mild to moderate foot discomfort at the end of the day, but anyone experiencing something beyond a slight discomfort should look elsewhere for relief because these will not help. 

The price point is really good if you're interested in these - they're only $9.48 at Walmart.com.

First Impressions : Dr. Scholl's

So as I posted yesterday, I got my BzzKit in the mail for the Dr. Scholl's Massaging Gel Inserts.  (What a long name!!)  I wanted to go ahead and post my initial reaction to them (and sort of explain the BzzKit, as a few people had asked me about BzzAgent).  Then I'll do a follow up post after a week or so of trying them. 

Here's the entire contents of this particular BzzKit:

 Everything came mailed in the manilla envelope!  

 Included were:

• The 'Official BzzGuide' for the campaign - which contains all kinds of useful information you might need while "bzzing" (spreading the word) about a product,
• A letter containing any tips or hints BzzAgent has for you,
• Last but not least, the product

The inserts were super easy to fit into shoes... all you have to do is cut off the little increments on the tip of the foot until you get to your size!  (I recommend going one at a time and testing in between each 'notch', just in case!!)

Here's a picture of what the insert looks like fresh out of the pack (on the left), and what it looks like after it's trimmed (on the right).

Now on to my first impressions!  

I have to admit, I was very weary at first.  I was talking to my mother as I put my shoes on this morning and I remember telling her that 'my first impression is no'.  Haha.  Luckily I stuck it out and let them situate in my shoes - it took about an hour for them to fit themselves into my shoe where they didn't aggravate me every time I stepped down.  (;

I don't usually have aching feet, but they are occasionally uncomfortable after a long day.  My feet felt alright today after work, but they didn't feel any less uncomfortable than usual. (If that makes any sense, lol)

Anyway, I shall be wearing them to work for the next week or so to test them out more, and then I'll post my final verdict on them.  Right now they're okay, but they haven't won me over entirely!!

xoxo
