  • s.kittyCA - This stuff works

    I'm on my second bottle of this stuff and I love it. It does make your hair feel a bit dry/crunchy (?) after washing but if you follow up with a good conditioner it's fine. I definitely have noticed my hair growing a bit faster than normal.

  • Amazon Customer - I have been buying this for several years as a ...

    I have been buying this for several years as a foundation, and as I saw in other reviews, they have changed the formula, and now it offers almost no coverage. I've gone back to using Bare Minerals on top of it, as I am still hopeful that at least the SPF will offer protection.

  • birdy canter - Abundance of energy and a curbed apetite!

    I am taking this product for weight control. It is the first herbal supplement I can confidently say that has worked for me. It boosts my energy (not like caffeine) and curbs my appetite like a pro! Good Bye cravings. I am looking forward to seeing some serious results. Thank you for a wonderful product!

  • Jeanne E. Bonaguro - Lives up to the hype!

    I love love love this elliptical. After I had my baby and went back to work I just didn't have the time to go to a gym and 18 mos later still had 15 lbs to lose so I got this for my birthday present. I did a ton of research […]is a great source)and stretched my budget to get this machine and it was so worth it. Sole also comes with the best warranty in this price range: 5 yrs parts & electronics & 2 yrs labor- no one else comes close. I went to Dick's and tried out this and the E25 and the difference was astounding: the E35 is so much smoother, it just feels sturdy and well-made, like a club-quality elliptical. Putting it together was a little time-consuming but not that difficult as the main part is put together- you basically attach the handles, console and a bunch of covers over the joints. I've been using it for 3 weeks now, 4-5x's a week and it is very quiet and smooth- I recommend this to anyone who doesn't have the budget for the $2K+ machines.

  • Daniel H. - Not bad

    Action is great but there isn't much of it, the story is alright but slow, Hercules' nephew the story teller is kind of a dork and a childish character and Hercules is greedy and helps no one for free. The supporting characters aren't that great, acting is just ok, and there isn't enough mythology in the movie. A brief walk through of the trials of Hercules, a bunch of demons, and some centaurs. Nothing will ever compare to the TV series with Kevin Sorbo. Honestly the Disney animated film is better than this.
