I need some critical feedback for my awful landing page/shopping cart combo I threw together. I set this up in a few days to test the feasibility of a new product I'd like to sell. Tear it apart.

Scalp Scrub Topical Scalp Treatment

PS. The above message is called a reaction formation. I am expecting lots of negative feedback, so I presuppose it in my message, then when I get a lot of negative feedback, I can say to myself, "see! I told you it was bad!"

I actually really worked pretty hard and I'm proud of it regardless.

Edit: This is a bit of satire. I worked very hard on this, and I was simply trying to illustrate an example of a defense mechanism commonly put into place by people who are scared of rejection/failure. I see this alot in posts asking for feedback. I thought it was fairly obvious, but I guess not. 😀
