Lady Speed Stick Floral Infusions Antiperspirant/Deodorant Review

While browsing through the beauty aisles at CVS I came across the Lady Speed Stick 24H Protection Antiperspirant/Deodorant Fresh Infusions in Wild Freesia. I never tried anything from this brand so I bought it.

It's just your basic deodorant stick which you twist at the bottom, and it rolls up and you apply it and roll it back. I love how it came with a plastic seal on top.

The ingredients are shown clearly on the back.

It claims to reduce underarm wetness and stay active for 24H (as shown on the front of the product). And it does what it claims. It does give protection from underarm sweat all day and more. It applies as a white kind of substance and looks like a thick wet powder when applied. It doesn't transfer onto your clothes. The scent is floral and very pleasant.

The downside though is that it is very hard to get it off. When you use this product regularly it kind of builds up on your skin and becomes tough to remove after a while. And since I have sensitive skin I don't like using harsh scrubs but this product makes me want to use one and I don't like that. So what I do is use it for a couple of days and then give it a break and use a deodorant spray for 2-3 days and then get back to this product. Another issue is that the product isn't retractable, meaning, if you twist up too much there's no way you can get it back. Maybe I got a defective one, I don't know, but the packaging sucks.

You can find it at drugstores, and I got mine at CVS where it is priced at $2.99. I got it for $1.49 coz there was an extra bucks reward of $1.50 with it and I also had a coupon where if I buy for $15 I can get $5 off so I bought it along with some other necessities. It's like almost getting it for free. I just love CVS.

I would recommend this to anyone who likes using deodorant sticks for long-lasting performance but I do not recommend using this on a daily basis. I don't think I'll be repurchasing it.

I hope the review helps you to decide whether to buy it or not.

15 Must Watch Chinese Youth Dramas That are Artistic Masterpieces

I stopped watching youth dramas (dramas usually set in high school/college backdrop) over a year ago since I felt like I was getting too old for these. I find most of them quite juvenile like I am watching the Disney channel. However, before I completely stopped, I tried watching more than 30 popular youth dramas and I had to drop most of them because they were just too mediocre, with bad writing, and bad acting/editing. But I also found some gems that were just too good and should not be missed by anyone, doesn't matter how old you are. These dramas have something more than just being a funny/silly high school/college drama. They have some kind of an x-factor to them that makes them quite unique in my opinion. Be it the story, the casting, the cinematography, the costumes, the locations/settings, etc. all together create a magical on-screen experience that I have not found in the other youth dramas that I have seen. Listed below are my top picks from the Chinese youth drama genre ...

Some Recent Regret Buys

In my opinion, it's not ethical blogging if we're only featuring the good and not talking about some bad products because let's face it, there are a lot of crappy products out there. And when we're not talking about them we're withholding important information and we're not being fair to our readers. In fact, it means we're being fairer to brands. It's fine if people want to earn some money through brand deals but it's really not worth it to become a sell-out. Some might say why bother writing about bad products, why not just let them be, but I want to put the word out there about bad products too because I want to help people like me save some money. Please note that when I say "bad products" it means "products that have not worked for me". However, these products might have worked very well for some others because each of us has different skin types and tolerance for products and it's totally OK. In the past few months, I t...

10 Popular Perfumes/Mists With The Same Scent DNA As Baccarat Rouge 540

Baccarat Rouge 540 was launched in 2016 by the famous perfumer Maison Francis Kurkdjian. Since then it has reached a whole new level of popularity when it comes to perfumes, especially on social media. But since it is a very expensive perfume there are a lot of people like me, who cannot justify spending so much on a perfume, and who are looking for something similar that costs less. On the other hand brands that grasp the popularity also come up with perfumes that are inspired by the OG. People refer to these as dupes or smell-a-likes. It's basically a win win situation for everyone. I am personally not crazy about the scent profile that BR540 belongs to but since it is so hyped I wanted to try it out for myself. So I went to the store several times and tested it on the paper strips, on my clothes, and on my skin. And after several tries I decided that it is not really for me. It's a little too spicy and woody for my tastes. And since it is so expensive it's also not some...
