Dial Acne Control? Maybe, Maybe Not.



It’s possible there was a mix-up and your skin didn’t get the memo that it’s summertime. If you’re ready to break out the bathing suits and tank tops, but your skin only seems suited for potato sacks, try NEW Dial® Acne Control.

Clinically proven to give you clearer looking skin in 3 days, the formula developed with dermatologists is oil-free and contains maximum-strength salicylic acid to clear up and help prevent future breakouts. Dial® Acne Control will help your skin look spectacular from head to toe:
  • Dial® Acne Control Face Wash makes sure your moneymaker looks marvelous by delivering a clearer, smoother complexion while being soft on your skin
  • Dial® Acne Control Body Wash helps keep your whole bod beach-ready by leaving the skin beyond your face clean, clear and fresh
  • Dial® Acne Control Body and Face Bar treats acne from head to toe while helping to fight off future breakouts – all in one convenient bar
BzzAgent sent me:
  • 3 sample pouches of Dial® Acne Control that include both the Face Wash and Body Wash
  • Coupons attached to the pouch so you can keep your skin treatment going at a discount
  • Pass along coupons for friends to save $1 on Dial® Acne Control products

I received my free samples of Dial Acne Control from BzzAgent and Dial. I was looking forward to trying it out and I tend to have a lot of oil on my face related to my job, but only mild acne. This product did wonders to help keep the oil clear from my face but it also at the same time did too good of a job and as a result my face stayed oil free and began to peel in certain places. So I decided to try using it every other day and that really made a difference so now my skin is oil free and not peeling. I also noticed the unique scent and enjoyed that very much, but my wife didn't like it because it was too strong and over powering. I liked that it wasn't too strongly like alcohol or boring as it is with other acne products. I think it was a bit womanly though. I've recommended the product by word of mouth to several friends but have encouraged them to use it every other day as I've had to starting out until they know how the product will best suite them. I don't have a before after photo to share since my results are more from managed reaction instead of clearing since I had only random acne. Body wash had same results because the ingredients are the same. I saw no reason for separate products. Point is, I can say it's worth buying if you have acne issues since I didn't notice any new breakouts.

A Man and His Blade...Review of Gillette Fusion ProGlide Razor


I recently received a new product free from Gillette and BzzAgent in exchange for review, which was their new Gillette Fusion Proglide Razor with FlexBall Technology. Upon inspection of the product, it seemed that Gillette had put alot of thought and effort into their product. By adding the FlexBall they hoped to better improve the shave that we men have to perform almost every morning. However I feel that Gillette could've done better with their new product. First off, the The Flexball technology, while a good idea, its not for every man out there. I found out that trying to use this product and having a full beard is exactly like using my regular Gillette Mach 3. This product was designed to contour and bend to the curve of a mans jaw line but if a man had a beard than this product becomes no different that that of Gillette's other products. However this razor isn't just for men, women can use it as well and one in particular helped me prove this point. My wife thought that she would try it one day on her legs, and she told me that she was rather impressed with it because of the way the blade moved with natural curve of her legs because of the FlexBall. So judging from this new bit of information this product would be well recommended to both men who shave their full face and to women just because of the closeness of the shave but all in all Gillette has still lived up to their reputations and creating another line of dependable razors.

My Rating : 3 out of 5 Stars

Truth…

Truth, that word by itself has a lot of meaning, especially to everyone. We all have our own version of it, our own concept of it, but the truth is now matter how you see the truth in the world it will be different from others. So a word to the wise before reading further, this blog is an expression of my truth. It is in no way meant to be seen as your truth and not to offend those that disagree with me.

I am who I am, my opinions, ideas, thoughts, feelings, past, and life are my own truth. If you disagree with me that’s fine you have your own right to your truth but do not judge me based solely on the fact that I believe and feel differently than you. We are all human, and we are all unique and these things are what make us who we are. So I caution you before reading anything else, read my words with an open heart and an open mind, for this is my truth…
