BrytonPick {Review & Giveaway} The New Way to Floss.

I got a chance to review the BrytonPick. It is a new and innovative way of flossing your teeth without all the hassle of regular floss.

I would have to say that I am not a floss carrying  person. I wish I could say I was, but I’m like those other people who don’t have time to run into the bathroom to look in the mirror- find the floss in a heap in my purse and actually floss. I don’t. It’s takes too much time and is inconvenient.

This is great for those times. When you’ve just ate- need to run somewhere and suddenly noticed you’ve not brushed and you haven’t had time to check whether you have leftover tuna salad in those choppers. Smile nicely and with confidence when you have this. It is great because it comes in so many colors, has a credit card size carrying case, and comes in an amazing array of colors to choose from.

Not only that- but it is reusable for 30 days. The stainless steel flexible ends kills germs so that it is okay to reuse. This eliminates how many flossers you have to throw away.

It is a very new and inventive way to floss. Who wants to carry the stringy floss around anyway?

The BrytonPick is a quick solution when there is no time or place to floss. Floss in seconds, a new and unique interdental cleaner.

*It reduces plaque & bacteria build-up.

*Prevents bad breath

*Stimulates proper hygiene.

It has flexible germ resistant stainless steel edges, that make the BrytonPick reusable for 30 days. It is convenient and potable because it has a go-anywhere credit card size carry pouch that make it easy to carry in your wallet, purse, or pocket. It is ultra-flexible and thin as floss reaching all areas to get the bacteria out.

People with braces will also find this to be an amazing product because the wires aren’t an obstacle for the BrytonPick. The rounded and blunt edges reduce the risk of injuring the gums, dental work and teeth. BrytonPick is strictly an interdental cleaner, it will not injure the gums since it is not forced.

DID YOU KNOW:

ADA statistics show only 12% of the population flosses regularly, mainly because floss is not convenient or easy to use. With today’s busy lifestyle there is rarely time or a proper place to floss after meals. As not many products are reusable or comfortable to carry, people often use dangerous improvised tools like; a pen cap, paperclip, staple, fingernail, edge of paper, or worse!

SO:

BrytonPick  is a stylish, convenient and discreet new innovation to get people flossing. It is easy to use, designed to be used daily, when on the go, to remove food debris and plaque from between the teeth after meals and snacks.

BrytonPick is made in the USA from completely recyclable materials. An additional environmental benefit is that BrytonPick is reusable (because of its germ-resistant stainless steel cleaning strips), thereby reducing the waste stream.

Keep Those Eyes Clean Optique 1 Eye Drops {Review & Giveaway}

I have had the chance to review Boiron’s Optique 1 Eye Drops.

I think this is an amazing product that is safe for the whole family to use.

I have a problem with feeling fatigued during the day. My eyes get so tired where all I do is read and write, so these eye drops were like a heaven sent product. All I have to do if I feel my eyes getting heavy is use one dose of the eye drops and my eyes are fully refreshed and full of life again. This means alot when I have tons of paperwork to scour over and feel like going to sleep...

Not only do they relieve eye irritation due to fatigue, it also relieves airborne irritants such as ragweed, dust, and pollen. But it also soothes red, dry, itchy, burning or tired eyes.

It comes in 20 single doses to keep the eye drops sterile. Do not touch tip of container to any surface

Our eyes are extremely sensitive and vulnerable, and they need gentle treatment when irritated by dust, ragweed, and other pollens, or by wind and sand from a day at the beach. Unfortunately, some traditional over-the-counter eye drops that contain decongestants, antihistamines or vasoconstrictors can only be used for short periods of time.

Luckily, Boiron’s Optique 1 Eye Drops can provide reliable and safe relief when experiencing red, dry, itchy and burning eyes due to fatigue or airborne irritants. Optique 1 does not contain vasoconstrictors or astringents, so there is no fear of a rebound effect or worsening of a condition. They can be used as often as needed without risk of overdose. The drops work naturally and are safe for everyone in the family.

Also, Optique 1 Eye Drops are packaged in sterile, single-use doses, making them preservative free. Single dose units can prevent contamination unlike traditional multiple-use containers. You can find this product in 10-dose or 20-dose sizes. More information can be found by visiting our Website.

Our Mission

"To stimulate the evolution of healthcare by promoting scientific homeopathy as a more compassionate, more ecological and more comprehensive approach to medicine and to allow every physician to know homeopathy and integrate it into their daily practice."

Our History

Boiron was founded in 1932 in Lyon, France, by twin brothers and pharmacists Jean and Henri Boiron. It is now the world leader in homeopathy. More about Boiron’s history in France and throughout the world can be found at www.boiron.com.

In 1983, Boiron established a U.S. presence by acquiring John A. Borneman & Sons, Inc., in suburban Philadelphia. Borneman was a family business with four generations of homeopathic expertise focused on supplying medicines directly to physicians and the public throughout the United States.

The fledgling company commonly, referred to as Boiron USA, employed a staff of seven who performed all tasks from harvesting and manufacturing to order processing and shipping. An average of 25 orders were shipped per day with a new focus on serving retail and pharmacy channels nationwide. 

In 1985, the company’s first president, Daniel Cohen, began to focus on serving retail channels with consumer-friendly products. In 1987, Cohen returned to France and Thierry Montfort arrived in the U.S. from Lyon to take the helm and continue the expansion in retail distribution.

In response to a significant interest in homeopathy in California, Boiron established a branch in Simi Valley, California, outside of Los Angeles in 1989.

Ten years after the acquisition of Borneman, Boiron invested in the construction of a new building and moved from the original Borneman site in Norwood to neighboring Newtown Square, Pennsylvania. The building continues to service as both the Boiron USA headquarters as well as the manufacturing and distribution branch for the East Coast. The facility houses a high-tech manufacturing laboratory, an innovative order fulfillment center, and spacious warehouse and automated shipping operations.

After heading Boiron Canada for 7 years, namesake Thierry Boiron became Boiron USA’s third president in 1995 when his predecessor returned to France as a newly appointment board member.

After much growth and the need to contract for larger warehousing on both the East and West Coast, a newly built West Coast branch was completed in June 2005. The new 20,500 square-foot building offers a high-tech manufacturing laboratory and warehouse capabilities to meet future demands. Beyond enhancing service, the new building also can accommodate 50 people in a specially designed conference room to facilitate educational efforts as Boiron is currently focused on outreach to the medical community.

After Thierry Boiron returned to France to serve as managing director of the Boiron Group, Ludovic Rassat was appointed the fourth president of the U.S. division in January 2006.

Today, Boiron USA has evolved into a leading U.S. homeopathic medicine supplier, fulfilling up to 1,000 orders per day during the busy flu season. The company partners with brokers, distributors, and retail chains to make homeopathic products available to a wide variety of consumers and physicians. Boiron’s staff of 120+ consists of a medical doctor, four pharmacists and lab technicians, accounting and IT personnel, a marketing staff, a national sales force, customer service, order fulfillment and shipping professionals—many of whom have an impressively long career with the company.

Our Commitment

As world leader in homeopathy, Boiron is committed to lead by example.

  • Our Commitment to the Environment
    The Boiron Group has a strong sense of obligation to respect the environment. The preparation of our medicines has limited impact on the environment. The main effects derive from extracting raw materials (continuity of species gathered), water pollution (mainly organic and biodegradable) and waste. As a counterbalance, Boiron promotes re-supplying wild or organically-farmed plants when possible. This sequentially improves the quality of raw materials used.
    Additionally, the Boiron Group works with 120 botanist-harvesters. These specialists are well-versed in diagnosing the land and employing harvesting strategies to anticipate continuity of supplies for the future. They generally harvest plants from their natural surroundings, which are then used fresh and wild in accordance with the balance of nature and the specifications of the principal pharmacopoeia.

Boiron is generously giving away one 20-dose box of Optique 1 for one lucky Lime Green Dreams Reader..

Keep Those Sippy’s Close with the No Throw {Review}

no throw

I have recently had the chance to review NoThrow. If you don’t know what it is~ I am here to tell you.

 DSCF3693

NoThrow will help save your sanity in some form in the future, I promise you that. As moms we tend to have to pick up the same thing about a million times. Babies and kids love to throw things, no matter what’s in hand. This no-throw is like a leash for their cups, not allowing them to throw it around. Isn’t that cool?

All you have to do is take the Velcro side, through the handle side while attaching it to the stroller/high chair/ car seat. It stays put no matter what they try to do to take it off. It not only holds Sippy's, but bottles, pacifiers and even little dolls or whatever.

I pulled out the double stroller one day and walked towards my best friends house. Aidan sits in the front and Adisyn sits in the back. Somehow my best friend had started walking to meet me and I ended up at her house without her there. So I walked back down to the church to wait for her. When I got back to her house, Aidan started saying he was thirsty. I couldn’t find the sippy for the life of me. I looked everywhere, and knew he had thrown it somewhere. I didn’t know where, but I knew it was a gonner.

Later on that week, as I was driving down main street, I seen the sippy in the yard of the church. It was bright orange and hard to miss, but If I would have had the NoThrow I wouldn’t have had the problem of Aidan pitching it overboard.

The NoThrow’s are not only practical in use, but beautiful in design. They have so many to choose from it’s unbelievable.

About The No Throw Company:

We are Karla and Karen, Twin sisters, originally from Chicago. When our sons were still babies, we lived within a mile from each other and were about to enjoy taking walks to the park with our children or being able to drop in on each other for a cup of coffee. Soon after that, Karla and her family moved to Detroit. As a result of this move, we found ourselves traveling back and forth between the two states more than we ever imagined. During those trips Karla’s son Alex kept throwing his sippy cup all over the car. After one particularly embarrassing flight Karla called Karen and said “there has to be something out there to stop this embarrassment.” The NoThrow (as in DANNY/ALEX! NO THROW YOUR BOTTLE/CUP), is our answer. Today we are available in over 10 thousand stores across the U.S. and are exploring distribution in Europe. We continue to have tremendous success with the NoThrow. Parents and caregivers all over the U.S. consistently send us feedback saying how invaluable our invention is to them. Our customers buy the NoThrow for family and friends as gifts because they are so happy with it themselves.

Shushybye & Goodnight {Book & CD} review & giveaway

shushybook2cover[1]

When nighty-night comes

We close our eyes

To dream our dreams

From Shushybye..

I have had the amazing opportunity to review Shushybye sleepover surprise {book} and shushybye and gooddnight {cd} by the shushybye band.

This is such an amazing little book. It has the cutest little characters to help your kids get interested in going to sleep. It helped Aidan learn when to turn the page because it has a little whistle when your supposed to turn the page. It is a cute little book that your children will enjoy and it will help you get them to want to sleep.

This is a cool cd because even I want to listen to it. It doesn’t sound like any other music I’ve heard for kids. It is just overall a relaxing cd that could put even the most hyper of kids to sleep.

Aidan and Adisyn’s favorites are Shushybye & Goodnight and Snoozles in my Room. I actually liked all the songs on the cd. They sound more like a pop/rock kind of music that even parents would love to listen to.

Adisyn and Aidan loved dancing to this. It was too funny and awesome to do after bath time. It helps them wind down and get ready to crawl into bed.

All the songs are really cute and have a great tune. It’s awesome to see my kids interact so greatly with these little characters and dancing to the music. I am actually thinking of giving this to Aidan’s headstart teachers to help the kids wind down before nap time. I think all the kids would love it.

For Shushybye Fans everywhere...

Shushybye and Goodnight. The Deluxe Edition presents a wondrous collection of all-time Shushybye original song. Including never-before-released Shushybye favorites plus 12 all-time Shushy hits in one deluxe edition CD.

I would recommend this to parents everywhere. It is a nice addition to the books they have and the Cd is amazing.

About Shushybye

SHUSHYBYE is a preschool entertainment and lifestyle brand designed to inspire children to look forward to sleep time and help parents prepare their children for sleep in a fun and loving way that encourages imagination. Importantly, SHUSHYBYE helps create healthful sleep habits for toddlers and preschoolers.

Shushybye is the original dream-themed entertainment brand for pre-schoolers, encompassing a national television series on BabyFirstTv and Comcast Video on Demand.

Meet the Shushies

The Shushies who live in Shushybye make dreams that are delivered to children in Shushybye Dream Boxes by Conductor McCloud and the Shushybye Train as they fall asleep. Living in such Shushybye villages as Nap Valley, Snore Shore, Slumber Heights and Yawn Island, the Shushies love to make dreams - and they also love music. After they make their dreams for the night, the Shushies gather in Pillow Park to dance to the live music of Rockin' Shushie and The Shushybye Dream band.
SNOOZLES, DOZIE and ZEEZ are best friends. They live in Nap Valley where they make their Shushybye dreams and always hang out together.

As the Shushybye King's Official Helper, SNOOZLES is the main Shushie in all Shushybye. The Shushybye King gave Snoozles a magic Dream Wand which Snoozles waves to visit children - and even bring them and their parents back to Shushybye. Snoozles is a fun-loving and very caring Shushie.

[click to hear Snoozle's Voice]

DOZIE is a girl Shushie, so she has all the smarts (of course!). DOZIE is always coming up with great ideas. She also loves to dance and has a bit of a crush on SNOOZLES. Children can always rely on DOZIE for the most wondrous dreams - and for her sweetness and joy.

[click to hear Dozie's Voice]

Then there's ZEEZ, who is totally cool. ZEEZ calls everyone 'dude.' Next to making dreams (which are always very creative), ZEEZ digs the Shushybye Dream Band. But there's nothing ZEEZ likes to do more than sleep. ZEEZ always enjoys meeting new children - and he knows how to be a good friend.

[click to hear Zeez's Voice]

CONDUCTOR MCCLOUD is a wondrous Shushie - 'wondrous' is one of the more popular SHUSHYBYE phrases. He loves his job delivering SHUSHYBYE Dream Boxes to sleeping children nightly. He is gentle and nurturing - and all the Shushies look up to him.

Royal and regal, THE SHUSHYBYE KING rules over SHUSHYBYE with love and dedication. He lives in the SHUSHYBYE Palace (located on a private cloud in Nap Valley), which, from the outside looks kind of small - but once inside, his home is spacious and grand. Which goes to show, you can never tell a book by its cover.

In their own way, SNORT and WHEEZ - whose job it is to pick up Dream Boxes in their rickety Dream Van and bring them to the Shushybye Train - are also caring and kind. However, to be perfectly frank, they're a little on the slow side. Somehow, these comical fellows are still able to get their important job done!!

 

It is a good way for the kids to use their imagination and help them go to sleep easier.

Shushybye is generously giving away a book and cd to one lucky Lime Green Dreams reader.

Bad Habit Gifts~Where Bad is Better~ {Make-up Review}

BadHabitMinerals our MakeUp Etsy

I was lucky enough to win reviewer of the month with Bad Habit Gifts.

I chose the Black Death and Smoke out eyeshadows..

I just wanted to try something a little different. I think that black and grey are sophisticated and elegant. I think that more people should consider wearing it, and especially if they get it from Bad Habit Gifts. These are some really awesome people who make the best mineral make-up for a price that anyone can afford.

The make-up comes in little jars that make it easy to put on and even easier to not make a mess with. I’m not scared it will dump everywhere in my purse and of course I have to take it everywhere.

DSCF3943

I loved both of them because they were so well made. This mineral make-up feels so great on my skin and actually has SPF’s to protect against sun exposure. It looks great and has such great tones. I don’t usually wear alot of make-up because my skin is oily and foundation breaks me out. I didn’t even have to use foundation when I put on their bronzer. It doesn’t make you look orange and fake. It looks beautiful and I am glad I got a chance to work with Bad Habit Gifts.

DSCF3922

Smoke Out - Eye Shadow

This is the smoke out eyeshadow. It is such a beautiful color of grey and would look great no matter where your going. Whether to work, school, or a night on the town.

Picture0066

Black Death - Eye Shadow

This is the Black Death eyeshadow. I swear, I love it. I know that most people wouldn’t wear black eyeshadow on a daily basis, but why not? This eyeshadow is amazing and is great for just lining your eyes with it. I think it looks professional and would be great to wear to work or anywhere else.

Bad Habit Gifts specialize in making their own line of mineral makeup, Bad Habit Minerals. It’s great for all skin types, even sensitive skin! It will leave you with a fresh, natural look that is smooth to the touch.

Benefits of mineral make-up

Mineral makeup is great for women with sensitive skin. It allows the skin to breathe and doesn’t clog pores. It is also beneficial for those who suffer from acne and rosacea, as it has anti-inflammatory properties. It proves a more natural look and doesn’t feel heavy like other makeup. It also reflects light making wrinkles and lines less noticeable. A lot of the chemical-based products are made with oils, which doesn’t help women who already have an oily complexion. Mineral makeup is an excellent solution for oily skin!

*No talc

*No harmful chemicals

*No animal testing

*No irritating fragrances

*Smooths skin

*SPF protection

*Long lasting

*Water proof

They also handcraft jewelry from clay. Using no molds, to create beautiful cupcakes, donuts, sushi trays and more! You can go to their website to see their full makeup line, handmade jewelry and other accessories they sell. They also do many contests and giveaways, so check back with them frequently.

Head on over and see some other amazing products they have..
