Below you'll find a number of personal, self-care products I use and recommend. I hope they help you just the same.
MULTI-VITAMIN / MINERAL (MVM)
Here's my favorite and go-to MULTI-VITAMIN / MINERAL (MVM). Wow, does this MVM pack practically everything you need in a single tablet. Check out the ingredients and try this MVM on for size. What's more, this bottle contains 400 tablets. So, in essence, one bottle will last you an entire year if you just take one per day, which is the recommended daily dosage. Not bad. You can buy it on Amazon.com or at your local Costco store. I buy mine at Costco whenever I shop there.

DENTAL, TEETH & GUM CARE
Below, you'll find the one-and-only go-to dental care product, which I've been using for 20+ YEARS, to brush my teeth and gums with. Seriously, they say a lot of our health problems originate in the mouth. Well, wouldn't it be wise to use the best dental care product you could find? Well, like I said, for 20+ years, I've been brushing my teeth with MySpecialSoap.com. Check this out ...
DAILY BRUSHING PRODUCT FOR → TEETH & GUMS
Listen up, for 20+ years, I've been brushing my teeth and gums with a very special soap. What's more, I've seen the dentist twice in 20+ years and have not had cavities, gum issues, enamel issues, etc. On top of that, I've eaten more chocolate chip cookies (and chocolate chips as a side treat) and more ice cream and berry pies and other sugary products than anyone you know combined! I indulge like such because I have an incurable sweet tooth (HAHA) and I have a metabolism that burns all those calories. Well, what does not benefit from those two traits of mine are my teeth and gums. To protect them, I need an amazing dental care product that works magic!
While I do have a rule for brushing my teeth (within 20 minutes) after every meal, there is no other dental, tooth-brushing product I would rather use on this planet than MySpecialSoap.com. I will boldly say, I have never used tooth paste in the past 20+ years as regular tooth paste STINKS!!!
I've introduced many of my friends and clients to MySpecialSoap.com and they love how it makes their teeth feel CLEANER, THICKER, STRONGER and their gums HEALTHIER. So, despite what some naysayers say about it tasting like soap and not the sweet peppermint, spearmint or citrus (among many other) flavors MySpecialSoap.com comes in, I'll brush my teeth with soap any day (and for the rest of my life) if I can avoid brushing with A.D.A.'s recommended fluoride crap caulk yuck tooth paste products they promote over-the-counter. They're bull in my personal experience and cannot touch the benefits MySpecialSoap.com gives you.
MySpecialSoap.com comes in several flavors: Peppermint (my favorite), spearmint, citrus (another favorite), fennel-mint, citrus, cinnamon, ginger, plain, jane (no essential oils), dragon's blood, plain jane, dragon's blood with cinnamon, salty-mint, everything (super concentrated 1 ounce), and clove bud.
HAIR CARE / HAIR GROWTH PRODUCTS
When it comes to hair care, hair growth and helping to prevent hair loss, first, check out my FREE REPORT ON HAIR CARE & HAIR LOSS and then check out the following recommended hair care products below, which I've been using anywhere from 10-20+ years!
I also use this product in conjunction with some other hair care / hair growth products (mentioned below) so that I don't over use the product, which lets me stretch the powder out over a month or two; you know, make it last because I don't use it every day. Anyhow, check out this product if you'd like to help grow healthy hair like I do. Again, I stand by this product immensely as I've been using it since the mid 90's.
Folks, I swear by this product. First of all, I've been using it since the 90's. Yes, 25+ years I've been using this product. If first found it at Mother's Market in Costa Mesa, CA on 17th street when that store was there. Now, they moved to 19th street and their original location is now a Sprouts store. Nonetheless, folks, if there's one product to get to help grow healthier, thicker hair, it's this product.
Ultra Hair is packed with all essential vitamins and nutrients that provide stronger and faster hair growth for men and women. Their formula offers a mega B-Complex with Pantothenic Acid, Biotin, Folic Acid, L-Cysteine, and Vitamins A and C. This Hair Growth Shake also includes enzymes, amino acids, and essential oils.
By the way, that photo above is a picture of all the latest empty cans I've kept to be able to take such a picture. I wanted to show you just how much I actually do love and use this product. Let's see, 12 canisters lasted me probably one year's worth or more of the powder. So, yeah, ROCK ON!!! I use this stuff! Imagine if I'd kept my first canister and every canister to date? That equal some approximately 300+ canisters I've purchased over 25+ years.
What I do is I'll have this shake 2-3 times per week. In fact, check out the actual recipe for that shake on this page of my cookbook here. Then, wait a day and the next day, your hair just looks healthier a bit fuller and well ... you're on your way to some healthy hair growth!
Probably THE BEST TASTING hair care / growth gummy product on the market. I am not kidding you. If I could eat a handful of these or two or three in one sitting I would! Whoa! Like candy! But, reality hits in and this is a vitamin supplement and you can't do dat!
So, here it is folks, my favorite Hair vitamin gummy that helps support healthy hair care and growth. You know, when I chew one of these gummies, I can feel it working on my hair already! So, give it a try. They're so inexpensive too.
Just like the photo above of all those hair shake canisters, the above photo shows some of the empty bottles I've kept around to take a picture of this product, which I absolutely love. I want you to know I didn't get some endorsement from this company to promote this product. No. I actually do use this product A LOT and all on my own. So, rock on wit dat!
What's more, I like to alternate taking this hair gummy product every other day all while having a hair shake on alternative days to help mix up the hair products I consume. Make sense? Plus, it stretches out the product quantity over 45-60 days, which is cool.
This is a dry, no-taste, Biotin tablet that you can literally chew and let dissolve in your mouth (and under the tongue) for best absorption and impact on the hair.
Now, while I prefer this tablet (no-taste/flavor), there is a strawberry flavored version of this tablet that tastes like a sweet tart, candy-like (Biotin) tablet, and I'm not kidding. Still, use restraint because these particular Biotin tablets taste like those sweet tart candies. (HAHA)
Anyhow, yes, I've taken these on and off for a very long time too. You can see, with the variety of hair care supplements and shake powders I take, I can make all of these products last me 60-90 days or more.
With these tablets, it's best to take them on an empty stomach and chew them completely and let them absorb completely orally. I've tried other Biotin tablets and this company makes the best.
In addition to what you ingest into your body when it comes to hair care supplements, nutrients and vitamins, it's also vital that your scalp get stimulation and blood flow circulation with the help of a vibrating or massaging hair brush. I've used these for decades and they certainly do help stimulate blood flow to the scalp which carries all those nutrients, vitamins and minerals you just took.
This brush takes two (2) AA batteries. Once your massaging hair brush is ready to go, massage your scalp with it for a few minutes each day. Massage the top, sides and front of your scalp. Then, repeat this for weeks, months, years on end and watch your scalp condition improve so your hair can grow, grow back, stay healthy, you name it. I've been using these massaging hair brushes for 25+ years.
PURCHASING TIP: Buy a few of these at a time, if you can afford to do so. Over time, let's say a year or so, like all brushes, they get worn out and need replacing. So, because you'll already have a few on hand, you won't need to order them again and be without one. Make sense?
This is a great biotin shampoo to add in conjunction with your regular shampoo and conditioner you might also use. Use this one first, then proceed to your other shampoo and conditioner.
Renpure Biotin & Collagen Thickening Shampoo is infused with nutrients to help fine hair look and feel thicker and fuller.
Their Biotin & Collagen Shampoo contains a blend of Vitamin B7 (Biotin) and protein (Collagen), created to give you the appearance of full, healthy-looking hair. Also, about this item:
✓ ZERO Sulfates, Parabens, Dyes, Gluten, Phthalates, Propylene Glycol, pH Balanced ...
✓ Bottle made from recycled plastic ...
✓ Animal test-free (PETA)* ...
✓ With 95% Plant-Based and naturally derived ingredients ...
So, after YEARS of using another holistic brand shampoo (last ordered in 2013 on Amazon), and conditioner (last ordered in 2014 on Amazon), and seeing them be discontinued to date, at the time, I went on the hunt for their replacements. For me, what I found was at your local Trader Joe's store. It's their:
TJ’s Tea Tree Tingle Shampoo
TJ’s Tea Tree Tingle Conditioner
I know everyone's hair is different, but for me, these were the best shampoo and conditioner when it came to replacing what I had been using for 10+ years. Don't you hate it when your favorite product(s) stops getting distributed? That's what happened to the original shampoo and conditioner I was using. Joking aside, people used to tell me my hair looked so healthy and those who got close to touch it (HAHA) never felt hair so soft. So, go figure!
Well, if you have a Trader Joe's in your area, head on over and pick up one of each and try them. No matter what you decide, just be sure your shampoo and conditioner is laureth sulphate free. Typically, those chemicals are found in all shampoos and conditioners sold over-the-counter at grocery stores, drug stores and salons. Stay away from those types of shampoos. They'll do more damage to your hair than anything else.
SKIN CARE & ANTI-AGING
Now, while my skin care is quite simple, being a guy, I would like to mention these two facial skin-care products I use that are super inexpensive, and yet ultra amazing when it comes to what they do for your skin. Check this out ...
Another amazing facial skin care product that leaves your face smoother than smooth! I'll use each of these serums alternatively every other day. I really do make this bundle last 2-3 months sometimes.
Simply use the Vitamin C Serum followed by the Hyaluronic Acid Serum in the morning to visibly brighten, reduce dark spots, smooth, and hydrate the skin. Use the Retinol Serum followed by the Hyaluronic Acid Serum in the evening to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, fade the look of age spots, support elasticity, and soothe the skin.
With 69,200+ 4.4 ★ Amazon reviews, I think it's easy to see thousands of others have also found great success with this skin-care product. I hope you will too.
(Amazon.com Search Results)
Believe it or not, my Mom turned me on to this product. About 15+ years ago, I started using it every other day or so (on my face) and before you know it, to date, people ask me why my face looks so smooth. Well, I owe it a lot to drinking a lot of water, eating well, working out and using Purpose Dual Treatment Moisture Lotion.
What's nice is that Purpose comes with a built-in sunscreen (SPF 10) for what it's worth. I also apply this same lotion to my neck as well to help smooth that part of the body too. What's more, check out the 4.8 start rating on this product on amazon among 780-2,249 reviewers. That says a lot right there, eh? No doubt, those people are experiencing the same results I am.
Lastly, the best part? Purpose is super affordable. You can also find Purpose on Walmart.com if you order it online. So, of course, shop around for the best price that meets your budget. I know for me, I'll order 2 or more in a pack to save money.
My favorite go-to shaving cream. Not much needs to be said about this Trader Joe's brand of shaving cream (made for both men and women).
I've been using Trader Joe's Honey Mango Moisturizing Shave Cream with Aloe Vera and Vitamin E for 20+ years. Tried other brands, but I keep returning to this one.
Because Trader Joe's doesn't sell anything online from their website, TraderJoes.com, I just linked to Amazon so you can read about it. If you have a Trader Joe's store in your area, just drive there and buy it off the shelf. At the store, it costs about $4 (+/-) per container. Not bad at all. I usually buy two at a time when I'm there.
If you must know, when I condition my hair with their Tea Tree Tingle Conditioner, that's when I'll shave (in the shower). Convenient and multi-tasking at its best. (HAHA) Hey, hope it helps.
