So unbelievable and it really works. I have never been bitten by anything when abroad until I went to Corfu earlier this year. Not only did I get one bite I think I had 8 on one leg. Maybe it was hormonal. But there you go it happens. Not only to me I hope. Cremes and potions were bought by the ton; still they did not give me relief from the stinging the itch and the pain. Anyone who has been bitten by the dreaded mosquito will know exactly what I mean, It would drive you crazy and that’s no lie. Until I was looking in a supermarket 3 or 4 days into my holiday. There I found this stuff, it’s called RELIEVER ROLLER .It’s in a long pen ...  Read the complete review

Do you get fed up with every time you go on holiday and get that fantasic tan it starts to peel off, well i think i have found the solution, when going on holiday take some baby oil with you, and every evening just before you go out rub it all over you i found i dont peel any more, because it is so oily it seems to put a bit back into your skin so you dont peel, try it, it works for me. you can also put it on as soon as you come in from the sun it does seem to help. ...  Read the complete review

Because we can buy drugs over the counter, we tend to assume they are safe. However, any drug taken to excess may not be. Furthermore, over the counter (OTC) drugs differ from country to country - either their active ingredients may differ, or their inactive ingredients (which could cause problems if you are allergic to any).

However, you should be informed - remember, drug preparations, and indeed, the laws governing OTC medications, differ from country to country. This was written as a ...  Read the complete review

Carsick? Seasick? does anyone in your family suffer from it. I have been on so many journeys where it takes twice as long, because of all the sick stops we have to make. I`ve cracked it now though! TRAVEL BANDS! they work! I have to admit I had no trust in them, but they have been like magic! no stopping every 15mins anymore. They are 2 wrist bands, with like a button on each and they press down on the accupressure point....what that exactly means & why, who cares they work 100% I had tried the Tablets from the Chemist,for my kids, they stopped the actual being sick, but not the constant whining `I feel sick` coming from the back of ...  Read the complete review

Is it too much to ask, in these days of high-tech, genetically modified everything, for an insect repellent that really works? I live and play on the West Coast of Scotland, where the midges are thick and angry. To step out of your car is to invite them to feast on your own flesh and herald at least two days of incessant itching. I have tried Jungle Formula, Shoo!, Bug-Off, a myriad of stores' own brand repellants and all they have done is melt any plastic they have touched and sting my poor face. They just DO NOT WORK. The only solution is a net but this makes you look like a serial killer on the prowl. I wish somone would come up with a truly effective, ...  Read the complete review
