I recieved my Shark Navigator Lift-away this afternoon and after getting it together, I vacuumed a small portion of my living room which I just vacuumed over the weekend with my old Hoover Self Proplled upright. The Hoover, I thought, was doing a great job of cleaning. Again, thats what I thought. But when I went over the same area I was amazed at the dust and dog and cat hair that was in the container. I have a dog and a cat and they both shed like crazy and I thought I had picked up most of the hair a few days ago. What was in the vacuum amazed me. In just a small portion of the living room, the canister was almost full. I have yet to vacuum the entire living room and hallway but I know when I do it will be a lot cleaner than it has been in a long time, thanks to the Shark Navigator. I almost was going to buy a Hoover Wind Tunnel, in fact I did put an order in for it. But then I saw a commercial for the Shark Navigator and went online to check it all out. I am sure glad that I did and right away I canceled the order for the Hoover and put the order in for the Shark Navigator. I put the order in on Monday monring and Tuesday afternoon the vacuum was delivered to me by way of UPS. Fast service from Amazon and fast service from the shipping company.

What is the cost of beauty? Before I ordered, I went online to read reviews. One that shocked me is on Huffington Post, which warns of the toxicity of Perricone products. Among the dangers, it states "Accordingly, the Environmental Working Group rated 25 of Perricone's products as posing moderate to high hazards.' " It describes nanoparticles, which are in these products: "However, the use of nanoparticles in cosmeceuticals poses a generally unrecognized major public health hazard. Nanoparticles readily penetrate skin, and can invade underlying blood vessels and produce distant toxic effects, including brain degenerative disorders and nerve damage." huffingtonpost.com/samuel-s-epstein/skin-care-the-unrecognize_b_418900.html

I was perplexed at first when I opened this very good looking box and found that instead of a single bottle, there are 8 equally handsome small boxes inside. Each small box contains a foil pack and a disposable shower cap. Since the product is supposed to be 12 ounces, I gather that each foil pack contains one and a half ounce of the hair masque. It sounds like very little, but there is a lot in each pack, especially when I have short hair. I have used the first pack 3 times so far and I am only half way through the pack.

This product lasted 4 months, then the mechanism at the bottom of the pitcher shredded and no longer turned the blades. Even though the blender was used for making a smoothie once a day, the manufacturer claimed it was normal wear and tear and refused to replace it. I believe it should last more than 4 months.
