    Your Laundry Is About To Get A Powerful, Pre-Portioned Spa Day With This 76-Count Of Tide Pods

    Tide Pods laundry detergent container featured in Prime Day deals under $25 for bank account safety.

    Review: "Those are easy to use; Just throw one in the bottom of the washing machine BEFORE your clothes, and done! Your clothes will come out clean and smelling super nice too. So far, even with big loads one pod seems to do the job just fine. But you may need to use more than one if you have some very dirty laundry to tackle though. I compared the price with other big grocery stores names, and this was priced the same there, as listed on Amazon. Advantage of ordering here though, you just avoid the lines at the register, don't have to drive to the shop, and can do other things while waiting that your pods arrives 😎" - Orcatrainer

    Your Hair Is About To Stage The Most Epic Comeback Since Britney's With Olaplex No. 5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner

    Review: "I have been using Olaplex No. 5 Conditioner since its introduction in 2017. It's amazing, luxurious, and highly concentrated. A little goes a long way. I have found that using these pumps helps to save money, so I am not using too much, and because I have arthritis, the thick conditioner comes out better for me than having to squeeze the bottles in the shower. I would definitely recommend splurging on the No. 5 Conditioner, and now I'm excited to buy their new No. 5 for fine hair." - Sparky
