Loreal Extraordinary Oil hair care system from Crowdtap

I am really happy with my results from using the Loreal Extraordinary Oil system so far. The oil complex in this system is made of 6 oils; Argan, Chamomile, Coconut, Amla, Soja, and Sunflower. It smells very nice, it's a light fresh fragrance.

The only problem I had with the shampoo was I seemed to need more than usual in order to get a good enough lather. That doesn't really bother me though because like most women I usually go thru conditioner faster than shampoo so this will even it out a bit.

The consistency of the conditioner was good and comparable to most other conditioners I have used, but I would have liked to have seen it a little thicker. The one (big) flaw I have with it is that once you rinse it out, it makes the bathtub very slippery! But it does a good job to make my hair soft and more manageable. It is easier than usual to comb thru my hair after my showers.

I was surprised that the instructions didn't really point out how much of the serum treatment to use! Thankfully I have used Argan oil in the past in my hair and know that a little can go a long way, so I didn't end up with an oily greasy head of hair!  I really liked this serum treatment, it was easy to apply and left my hair feeling soft and silky without being oily or greasy. It also moisturized my hands and left them soft and silky.

For some reason they didn't send us the Extraordinary Oil Transforming Oil-in-Cream to test/review. It's a bummer because as with most hair care systems it recommends to use all of the elements of the system for best results. Guess I will have to go buy some when I get a chance.

All in all I am pleased with the system. It left my hair hydrated and softer which means it was more manageable. I seem to have less fly aways also.

Rubbermaid Fresh Works produce savers

I absolutely love my Rubbermaid Fresh Works produce saver! It worked much better than I had expected to keep shredded lettuce fresh. Usually I open a package and it lasts maybe 3 days, but we were still able to use it on the 7th day from the produce saver! They come in 3 sizes; small – 2.5 cups (1 pint of berries), medium – 6.3 cups (1 lb. strawberries), and large – 17.3 cups (1 head of lettuce). They are also very reasonably priced. It is also easy to use in my opinion since it is recommended NOT to cut or rinse your produce before storing it in Fresh Works, just take it from the store packaging and put it right into the produce saver.

According to the package, the fresh vent lid is a patented membrane that naturally regulates the flow of O2 and CO2 to create the optimal environment for the produce to stay fresh. The best part is that the filter lasts a lifetime! There is a removable crisp tray that elevates produce away from moisture and promotes proper airflow to help prevent spoilage. It's even dishwasher safe.

I will definitely recommend these to friends and family, and I will be buying some more of them for myself.
