SoftSoap Holiday Body Wash Collection (Limited Edition 2014)

The items mentioned in this post were sent from Colgate-Palmolive for review purposes only; all opinions are completely honest.

Softsoap has three new limited edition Holiday inspired body washes; Alpine Mint Frost, Venetian Vanilla Spice, and Parisian Berry Bliss. Christmas is my favorite holiday and I love decking out my house in Holiday scents, so I was super excited to try these body washes. They double as bathroom decor, haha.

As far as lather goes, these are all nice and creamy. They make amazing bubble baths as well, because they bubble up so well. I can squirt just a tad bit under hot running water and the entire tub fills with luxurious bubbles. The scents fill my bathroom and leave thoughts of a Winter Wonderland behind.

I’ve always been a huge fan of Softsoap and their variety of products. Not only do they have too many that I LOVE, but they are ALL affordable. Not to mention that all the body washes leave me feeling super clean, my skin nourished & moisturized, and not sticky or too dry.

Softsoap® Alpine Mint Frost

From Softsoap- Lose yourself in the beauty of winter with our limited edition Alpine Mint Frost body wash. It’s invigorating scent will leave your skin soft and smooth all winter long.

This body wash is definitely embracing the magic of the winter season. When I opened the cap, visions of candy canes and peppermint sticks floated through my mind. I really like this creamy, fresh peppermint scent- it’s definitely very Christmasy. It isn’t too overpowering but the scent lingers.

I’ve never smelled anything that was scented this close to a real peppermint. It doesn’t have that overpowering Bengay mint smell that some mint scented products do. It’s scented with “Cool Winter Mint”. It’s just sad that this is a limited edition, because you can’t help but think of Christmas trees with hanging peppermint sticks and candy canes. :D

This is very relaxing and yet rejuvenating at the same time. This is perfect for bubble baths too! Light a candle, fill up the bathtub, and relax. I detect a light scent after I get out of the shower, but it fades pretty quickly. With peppermint scents, that’s pretty amazing. I don’t want to smell like a giant peppermint stick long after I’ve rinsed off.

The consistency is amazing. Not too thick yet not too thin and watered down. Produces amazing amounts of bubbles, and the peppermint smell is so refreshing.

Softsoap® Parisian Berry Bliss

From Softsoap: Celebrate the spirit of the season with Softsoap® _brand limited edition Parisian Berry Bliss body wash. This moisturizing formula leaves skin feeling soft and smooth, while the festive scent of red winter berries leaves you ready to enjoy winter.

This body wash is an invigorating, delicious blend of winter berries. It smells just like holly and juniper berries. Very sweet and lingering, I love it. It is very fruity and fresh, makes me happy every time I use it. My kids love this as a bubble bath, as do I. It’s very refreshing!

I totally wish they had a lotion to go with this, I’d so buy it. This could be used in the fall season as well, the berry scent is amazing and not too overpowering.

Softsoap® Venetian Vanilla Spice

Embrace the magic of the winter season with Softsoap® _brand limited edition Venetian Vanilla Spice body wash. Let the invigorating scent of Sweet Vanilla & Spices infuse your shower to leave you with soft and smoother skin all winter long.

I am a HUGE vanilla scent fan as you all know. This is almost at the top of my list of favorites though. This is sweet, creamy, and reminds me of baking sugar cookies. The spices aren’t too strong, just very subtle. I absolutely LOVE this and it’s staying power. It smells incredible, but not too foody like some vanilla scents tend to have.

This layers very well with the Softsoap Vanilla Brown Sugar lotion and spray.

Get them: These are all available at your nearest Wal-Mart for under $4.

One Step Ahead 2-in-1 Easel Desk

Disclosure: Items mentioned in this post were sent for review purposes only; all opinions are 100% honest.

My kids love anything that has to do with creating. They could paint, draw, color, and craft for hours at a time. Aidan loves to draw and write, while Adisyn prefers to color. Now they can do both with the One Step Ahead 2-in-1 Easel Desk.

There are so amazing things to love about this desk. The first is the colorful unique design. Most desks are made of just plain wood, which lacks personality. This one has a bright orange color.
                      

The dry erase part comes with 2 dry erase markers- black and blue and an eraser. I love that they now have their own small space to learn, draw, and grow their super-amazing imaginations.They can sit and do their homework, play school, or just hang out and write.

 

I love that it also has an attachment rod at the top that holds rolls of paper. The paper can be flipped either way- towards the easel or towards the desk. Of course this is a sanity saver for me. Anybody with more than one child knows what it’s like to have kids arguing because “mommy Adi isn’t taking turns” or “mommy Aidan won’t share”. Now there isn’t a sharing issue. One can use the chalkboard while one writes or colors on the paper.

                  

The easel has a chalkboard on one side. Below the chalkboard are 6 colorful baskets to sort and organize their art and craft supplies. There are two rods that hold the baskets in place, with 3 baskets to a row. Since there are two rows with 3 baskets, each of my kids get their own row with 3 variety colored baskets. 



The Easel/chalkboard part of the desk is accompanied with packs of chalk both colored and white as well as an eraser. I really loved that One Step Ahead really thought of everything! They made it so much easier on me, because they wanted to draw and write immediately after the desk was put together. What a bummer it would have been to tell them I didn’t have any chalk.


The bench-style seat that comes with the desk also doubles as a storage space. Adisyn and Aidan use it as their hiding hole, storing their toys. I think it would be a cute place to store books and larger craft supplies that won’t fit in the buckets.

This desk/easel isn’t only a sanity saver, but a space saver as well. Although we have a 3 bedroom house, the rooms are on the small side after the regular furniture. I love that this doesn’t take up much space. They have plenty space to move around and play.

Winter weather is here, which means more time spent indoor. My kids love spending time outside, but they can’t stay out there very long. This gives them a space of their own to while away the time on the days that it’s just too darn cold to play outside.

This is the perfect gift that combines playing with a love of learning. This is definitely not a gift that will easily be tossed aside and forgotten about in a week. Aidan, Adisyn, and my niece Dezi all absolutely love the desk. Whoever you get this for will certainly be thanking you for a long time.

Get it: One Step Ahead 2-in-1 Easel Desk.

Giveaway: Safety 1st Car Seat

Safety 1st Holidays Car Seat Giveaway

Hosted by:  Confessions of a Messy Mama

Sponsor:  Safety 1st

Here are some tips from Safety 1st to help you survive the holidays:

“According to AAAnofollow last year 94.5 million people were on the roads, train tracks or in the skies during the holiday season.  That’s a lot of people! Then add your own kids into the mix of congestion and for some it can mean holiday headaches.  However, Safety 1stnofollow has some tips to help fight some of those headaches this season.

1.      Avoid peak travel days –Try not to fly or drive the days immediately before and after the actual holiday.  Those are the busiest travel days. However, if you fly or take a train you might save money by traveling on the actual holiday, the roads are less congested too.

2.      Prepare your child for the trip – Holiday parties can be overwhelming with sensory overload.  Especially for young children it’s good to talk about the upcoming trip days even weeks in advance.  This will help him or her get excited about the journey.  Show photos of family members or friends your child has not met yet, this way the new face might be a little familiar on arrival.

3.      “Are we there yet?” - To help avoid that dreaded phrase an hour into your six hour trip reserve a bag just for the kids, include books, toys, diapers a change of clothes and snacks.  Pre-load a tablet or smartphone with kid friendly apps or games. If you are driving keep all necessary items such as wipes, hand sanitizer or tissues easy to reach in a second – there are times you may not want to be digging through the bottom of a bag for such items. The Safety 1st Car Door Sanitation Stationnofollow is a great solution.

Make Your Thanksgiving Feast a Little Bit Brighter

  

     Disclosure: This post was sponsored by Edible Arrangements, all opinions are my own.

Transition your Thanksgiving table with festive yet edible centerpieces. Most of your guests will arrive before the food is done, so give them something to nibble on while they wait. You’ll want the table to look pretty, so why not add in a centerpiece that’s beautiful AND practical as well?

                

Edible Arrangements has the perfect go-to Thanksgiving centerpieces in a variety of prices, so there’s something for everyone. They have baskets filled with a cornucopia of fruit and chocolate that the whole family will enjoy! The beautifully arranged fruit dipped chocolate is fresh, delightful, and looks so much better as a centerpiece than flowers do.

                    

Thanksgiving doesn’t have to be stuffy or strictly proper. Remember it’s a day to spend with the ones you love and giving thanks. It should be fun and inviting, and your guests will appreciate all that you’ve done. It doesn’t matter if your Thanksgiving festivities are formal, modern, or traditional- Edible Arrangements will fit in any scheme of decor. These are just as useful as they are delicious.



I love that they combine harvest-hued colors mixed with chocolate leaves & a variety of fruit. Thanksgiving decoration ideas are just as bountiful as the thanks we are giving this season. You can combine an edible arrangement with traditional autumn decorations, like faux-painted pumpkins and colorful fall leaves.


                  
Does your family enjoy sitting around watching Football while they eat? Do you already have some football decorations already in place for the big day? Why not add to it with this amazing Touchdown Delight Edible Arrangements piece?



These arrangements would also make amazing centerpieces for the kids tables. You know they’re always trying to sneak into the snacks before eating time, so let them. Give them the option of nibbling on something healthy while they wait for the Turkey and sides to be completed. They’ll love it and it won’t ruin their dinner.



Even if you aren’t the one hosting the dinner this year, bring a gift. Hostess Gifts are much appreciated. When someone invites you to their home to celebrate with them; whether family or friend show your appreciation. You could bring something for just the hostess, such as the picture above. Or you could give a full centerpiece that all the guests could enjoy, your call.
