iHerb Review Part 2 - Leather Cleaner & Polish, Vitamins, African Black Soap, Bodywash

Reviews of iHerb natural products: Weiman, Leather Cleaner & Polish


Part two of my iHerb reviews:

Review: Now Foods, Kid Vits, Berry Blast, 120 Chewables


These chewables looks and taste like candies. Also has nice amount of different vitamins. Only downside is that serving size is two chewables. I doubt the kids would complain, but if you are with a tight budged this might not be your first choice. Five stars for the product, three for price.

Buy Now Foods, Kid Vits, Berry Blast, 120 Chewables from iHerb.com


Review: Nubian Heritage, African Black Soap, Body Wash, 13 fl oz (384 ml)


Not the cheapest African black soap, but this small bottle last for a long time. Smells nice for a natural product. You don't need much of this body wash to clean yourself. You don't need an aftershave, if you use this soap. That's a nice extra. :)

Buy Nubian Heritage, African Black Soap, Body Wash from iHerb.com


Review: Weiman, Leather Cleaner & Polish, 12 fl oz (355 ml)


Smells like lemon. This leather cleaner is cheap and works fairly well with leather furniture. Not the best cleaner, but it does revitalize and polish leather nicely, and you don't need it much. I'm going to order more when this bottle runs empty.

Review: Rainbow Light, Vitamin D3 Sunny Gummies, Tangy Orange, 400 IU, 60 Gummies


These are great vitamins for the kids. They can't wait to have their daily d-vitamins. You might want to hide the package from them thought. Otherwise these would been eaten too soon. Not the cheapest product, but at least you get your kids to eat their vitamins.

Buy Rainbow Light, Vitamin D3 Sunny Gummies, Tangy Orange, 400 IU, 60 Gummies from iHerb


Review: Country Life, Gluten Free, Maxi-Hair, Time Release, 90 Tablets


Country Life's Maxi-Hair is aimed for hair loss, thinning hair etc. where it works as intended. Not only it will make miracles with your hair, it also works as a multivitamin. If it would have d-vitamin, this would be pretty much the only vitamin product you would need! Price and quality ratio on this one is just superb. If you are looking for downside, then I must add that these tablets doesn't taste and smell too good. But sometimes that's just the price you gotta pay for quality products.

Buy Country Life, Gluten Free, Maxi-Hair, Time Release, 90 Tablets from iHerb


Review: Avalon Organics, Biotin B-Complex Therapy Thickening Conditioner, 14 oz (397 ml)


This is a great product when used with Avalon biotin shampoo. There are some downsides thought. This conditioner is bit thick, and you need it plenty for your hair. Also you really need squeeze the bottle to get it from there. Conditioner bottle runs empty much much faster than the biotin shampoo from the same company.

Buy Avalon Organics, Biotin B-Complex Therapy Thickening Conditioner from iHerb


Review: Now Foods, XyliWhite Kids Toothpaste Gel, Fluoride-Free, Strawberry Splash, 3.0 oz (85 g)


Not too strong taste, and surely your kids will like this toothpaste. Package gives you much to hope for. As you usually get too much toothpaste gel from the tube (and as you know you can't put the extra back in), and the gel easily drops off. Too much of the toothpaste ended up on our bathroom floor.

Buy Now Foods, XyliWhite Kids Toothpaste Gel, Fluoride-Free, Strawberry Splash from iHerb


Review: Xlear Inc (Xclear), Spry, Sponge Dental Floss, Waxed, 43.8 yds (40 m)


Xlear's Sponge dental floss breaks down to easily with my teeth. If you are looking for strong dental floss. This might not be for your. Xylitol coating is a nice extra, which is the reason I bought this in first place. I just wish that the product wouldn't break up so easily.

Buy Xlear Inc (Xclear), Spry, Sponge Dental Floss, Waxed from iHerb


Review: Glee Gum, All Natural Gum, Cinnamon, 18 Pieces


I'm a big fan of cinnamon gum, but this one just doesn't do it. This product is over-sweet (too much sugar) and the taste goes away within few minutes. Not impressed.


Buy Glee Gum, All Natural Gum, Cinnamon, 18 Pieces from iHerb


Review: Now Foods, True Focus, 90 Vcaps


I tried the whole 90 Vcaps, and I have to say I didn't notice any difference within my mental clarity or focusing on daily tasks.

Swedish Herbal Institute's Arctic Root (SHR-5)

My review


I was bit skeptic about the Swedish Herbal Institute's Arctic Root, as I have tried many of the products that should improve your mental clarity, focus, and make you feel better all day. Swedish
Herbal Institute's Arctic Root has been product of the year by the Swedish Health Council for five consecutive years.

has actually worked.

3. Now Foods - Magnesium Citrate



My review


I take Magnesium Citrate before I go to bed. As it helps me to calm down, and relaxes my muscles. Also keeps away any muscle cramps. Daily serving size is three capsules, but I'm fine with just one or two. Now Foods Magnesium has a nice price and quality ratio.

5. Thorne Research, Citrate Formula, Basic Nutrients III Without Copper and Iron, 180 Veggie Caps


Thorne Research, Citrate Formula, Basic Nutrients III Without Copper and Iron

My review



Might be the best multi-vitamin product that is out there. Surely it isn't the cheapest, but the quality of the Thorne Research's Basic Nutrients III is amazing. You will save few dollars, if you leave the separate vitamin-D out of your list. As this product has pretty much everything you can hope for from a multivitamin product.

Product info:
Basic Nutrients III is a comprehensive multi-vitamin-mineral product that provides calcium, magnesium, and potassium as citrate mineral chelates. Besides providing a well-absorbed chelate,

citric acid has potential health benefits of its own.* As an important Kreb's cycle intermediate (also called the citric acid cycle and important for energy production), citric acid is

essential for metabolism in all living organisms.* Citric acid has been shown to inhibit precipitation of calcium oxalate and phosphate in the urine.* Since magnesium, calcium, and potassium

also have that potential, this combination in one supplement provides added benefit.*
