Nivea Lip Butter

So this spring I found a new favorite lip product. It's the Nivea Lip Butter. It comes in two different scents, the other is Vanilla Macadamia which may I add smells just like cupcakes!
I purchased the Raspberry Rose Kiss one at Walmart and had a heck of a time trying to find the vanilla one. I actually ended up finding that one at the place where I work.
These make your lips feel so refreshed and moist. I love using mine when my lips feel really dry. They also dont make your lips sticky feeling. The only con that I have with this product is the way it's applied. I hate applying it with my finger, I wish there was a way to apply it without having to touch it. I also wish they had different scents beside these two.
The price for these aren't too bad either. I wouldn't recommend this product if your lips are already chapped. It wont heal your chapped lips but it helps keep your lips moist during those hot days. I try to carry mine with me wherever I go.

Dr. Scholl's Massaging Gel Insoles

A couple weeks ago I got these Dr. Scholl's Massaging Gel Insoles from BzzAgent.com. Before I get into the review of these I'm going to explain my current situation with my legs/feet.
A couple years ago back when I was still in high school (maybe even before high school) I realized that I suffered from shin splints. I didn't have to be doing anything and every day I would get them. I played sports a lot in high school so I tried everything to make the shin splints stay away while I played. I tried wraps around them and all sorts of different insoles. I no longer play sports anymore but I do work a job where I have to stand all day in these terrible shoes.
When I got these in the mail I quickly cut them to fit my shoe size and placed them into my work shoes. I ended up wearing them to work that day. They definitely made my shoes feel more comfortable. Although these insoles don't completely keep my shin splints away they help quite a bit. I like the comfort that they give me and it doesn't feel like all the pressure is on my feet.
I don't think any product/insole is ever going to remove my problem of shin splints but these do help. I wouldn't mind purchasing another pair of these for my everyday shoes so that I can get comfort all the time and not just when I'm working.
