Crowdtap Sample and Share: Listerine 21 day challenege

I am one of those people who thinks of candy and sweets and instantly I get a cavity. For years I have had issues with my teeth and gums and I just can not seem to shake it. I have used a specialty tooth paste, I use a power tooth brush, I have used a water pick and I have tried just about every mouth wash you can think of to help with my issues. It is because of this that I was excited to take the Listerine 21 day challenge with Crowdtap.

As part of my sample share I was provided with two bottles of Listerine, one for me and another for a family or friend. We were then instructed to take this challenge and report our findings. I was a little disappointed with the sample share from the beginning because by the time I received my sample, I had missed the first two weeks of the outlined activities and I had less than the 21 days needed before I had to complete my report. But I am a good sport so I passed a bottle over to a friend who agreed to try it out with me and I went on my way.

I must admit that this was not my first time using Listerine but it was the first time that I actually paid attention to the progress I made with my oral health while using it. In the past it was just a part of my routine.  This time I made sure to pay close attention to any changes I saw.  I must admit that after a couple of days I noticed that the soreness and tenderness in my gum line area was slowly going away. I also notices that my breath felt fresh and clean. Overall, I saw some improvement in oral health in that my gums were no longer sore and my teeth had a fresh clean feel to them. I will admit that even though I experienced some changes while using Listerine, I am not completely sold on it because I am not a big fan of the strong sensation you feel when using it. I will be finishing out my 21 days of the challenge and I will then draw my conclusion on how sold I am on it. Until then I will swish on and see what comes next.

Herbal Essences body wash not quite calgone...fails to take me away

I was excited when Crowdtap asked me to do a sample and share for the new Herbal Essences body wsh. I love their shampoo  so I was excited to give the body wash a try. When I received the sample in the mail I was a little disappointed at how small it was. It was not enough to really get a true feel for the product. The other thing that was kind of disappointing was the lack of smell.  One of the things I love most about Herbal Essence shampoos is the great and lasting smell of all their products. I was expecting the body wash to have that same great strong smell but it did not. The smell was very faint but it was a very pleasant smell that I enjoyed. I just wished that it had a much stronger and lasting smell to it. I did enjoy how well it lathered and how it had a good covering with just a small amount. Overall, I still on the fence about if I would purchase this body wash over my normal brand. I will have to purchase a larger bottle to give it another try.
