A useful topic for a Monday.... (I hope).

OK, Lounge. Here is a positive thread for your dreary (at least it is here) Monday afternoon:

Recommend an especially nice product that you have recently discovered, such as a new shampoo, cosmetic, food or beverage, cleaning product, etc. If you want, you can ask the others to recommend something you have been searching for.

I'll go first. I recommend Soleil disposible shavers. They are really smooth, don't nick the skin, and last a long time. And I would like a recommendation for a good leave-in conditioner. They are getting impossible to find anymore.

Play nice, OK? :)

1. This recipe for Cilantro Chicken from the Lioness....

I have made it twice now and it is absolutely delish....

4. Thank you! I missed that the first time around.

I have fresh cilantro in my herb garden... and I will be making that this week!

2. Sweet Coconut Thai Decaf Chai. Mmmmm!

7. Ooooh, that does look good. Haven't seen that one yet!

Anything with coconut, and decaf, too... well that says it all! Thank you!

8. It's really good

Picked it up on a recommendation from another DU poster.

5. Thanks. Do you use it? It got good reviews, but is kind of pricey.

Is it worth the price?

[Connonym]

9. Yes I use it

I have very fine hair and I love that it doesn't weigh my hair down. A bottle lasts a really long time. I have shortish hair but I've been using the same bottle for over 6 months now, you only need just a little bit. Plus I think it smells great.

6. Coolah Energy drinks

Recently discovered the Lemon Tang variety of this. 16 oz of caffeine, taurine and vitamins.

Much tastier than Red Bull, Rockstar, etc. Better kick too, I think.

11. Caffeine lovers will appreciate this one. Thanks, flvegan.

10. John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Shine Shock

I have long, dark hair that tends to frizziness. This stuff works nicely on it - calms it down a little and leaves it soft and shiny. And it doesn't cost much.

12. I've had good luck with John Frieda products, too .

Thanks for the recommendation, skygazer.
