Give it time!

I've been using Superior Hair for about 15 months now but was buying them from England. iherb is far cheaper even with postage. They are an excellent product for falling and thinning hair, from which we women often suffer, and I was clogging the plughole frighteningly at each hairwash. However, do give them time to show their promise. Three months minimum but better to decide after six months use. I have not been disappointed.

Kitchens of India, Paste for Chicken Curry, 3.5 oz (100 g)

Great Store Cupboard Standby

I now keep three or four of these Chicken Curry Pastes in the store cupboard for when I can't be bothered to cook a curry from scratch. I've adapted the directions though and soften an onion first, then brown the meat, (it works just as well with lamb or beef as well as chicken) add the paste and fry for a minute or two then add the liquid. I've used water but have also found that it's even better with tinned tomatoes or natural yoghurt. I did try coconut milk but that made it incredibly rich. If there are any mushrooms or other veg you like these can be popped in with the liquid. Obviously, lamb or beef will take longer to cook than chicken and I prefer to cook them in the oven. My husband, who is a bigger curryholic than I, gives these pastes a mega thumbs up. They have been life-savers in the curry wilderness of France!!

MyChelle Dermaceuticals, Lip Plumping Treatment, Luscious Pina Colada, .5 fl oz (15 ml)

Not Impressed

I'm always searching for lip care products which are a cream consistency rather than sticks or pots of balm. I thought I'd found such a thing with Mychelle's Lip Plumping Treatment. Serves me right for not reading the ingredients list more thoroughly. The texture is horribly oily and greasy so you end up with an oil slick on your lips which rapidly seeps into the surrounding areas and, being so slippery, doesn't rub in and soon wipes off. I stuck with it for about three weeks but had no evidence of moisturising or plumping and ended up with a rash under my bottom lip. An expensive mistake.

I've been taking a B-50 complex for years so this is a substitute for my normal brand. Can't fault it for price or quality.

Life Extension, Bilberry Extract, 100 mg, 100 Capsules

Good Product

I've been an insulin dependent diabetic for the last 41 years and been taking bilberry for about 10 years. I'm convinced they are the reason that my retinopathy scans are always clear. I found these Life Extension ones after my English supplier let me down badly and I Googled "Bilberry" and very happily found these and also the wonderful iherb. I take three a day and, again, my last retinopathy scan in March was totally clear. Great product.

Excellent

It's impossible to buy soup in tins in France and my husband does miss the convenience of tinned soup. I bought this along with many other makes and varieties of tinned soup and gave my husband a "food parcel" as a Christmas present. His comments are that it's delicious and "they couldn't fit any more veg in if they tried!"

My Favourite of the three

These are really delicious with a great buttery flavour. I've tried all three varieties and these butterscotch ones are my favourites. Very unusual to find this flavour in sugar-free sweets. Definitely a repeat order item!

I like Theanine as a very good "calm-down" product but was annoyed that it was becoming more difficult to find a 100mg strength, as most makes are now 200mg. Thanks to wonderful iherb that problem is now solved and I'm very happy.

Better than the Island Fruit

The yellow ones (lemon) are tasty. The orange ones aren't bad. The red ones, which could be cherry or raspberry are a bit odd but pleasant and the purple (grape) are are tying for my favourite with the lemon ones. Nice change of flavours for sugar-free sweets and, thankfully, no sorbitol or aspartame.

Andalou Naturals, Night Repair Cream with Resveratrol Q10, Age-Defying, 1.7 fl oz (50 ml)

Rather drying

I've been using Desert Essence's night cream for a while which I like a lot but, as usual, on my browsing of iHerb's website, I always find something else I think I'd like better. Well, made a mistake with Andalou Naturals Night Repair Cream. It's a cream-gel texture and, although it says for all skin types, I find it rather drying for my normal/dry skin. I've ordered some more Desert Essence cream.

Special, Spice Island, Ayurvedic Body Butter, Lemongrass, 1.2 fl oz (35 ml)

Disappointed

You would think something labelled "Ayurvedic" would be full of good things. Serves me right for not paying attention to the ingredient list before I added it as a freebie to my order. On reading the ingredient list on receipt I was horrified to find propylene glycol is item number four and there is not one but four parabens included. As for the lemongrass - that's the last item listed. It's not going anywhere near my body!

I've been taking a sea buckthorn capsule from another supplier for about a year. These equal the strength but the price is cheaper. Therefore, I'm very pleased and it's cheaper for me to use iherb than to order from my usual source in England.
