My Review:

We received the Dancing Hair Detangler and Bubbly Body Wash. I really liked the how the bottles are bright and colorful.

Bubbly Body Wash

My kid’s are REALLY messy. They are always getting dirt on their face and juice on their shirts. So, needless to say- they need A LOT of baths. I was looking for body washes for kids that was chemical free, and FUN for the kids to use.

Did I find it? Yes. With the Bubbly Body wash, a little goes a long way. I just squirt a little on a washcloth and get to scrubbing those dirty children of mine. It bubbles up extremely well. (So well in fact that they wanted to use it as bubble bath) So we did. I put just a tiny drop under the faucet, and they were playing forever it seemed.

This body was is safe for sensitive skin, because it removes the surface oil without stripping the skin of natural oils and drying it out. Aidan has sensitive skin, he always has. When he was a baby I had to use unscented wipes and lotions on him because he would get tiny little bumps from the chemicals in the “Scent”. I had to end up using Johnson’s Regular Wash most of his life, until now.

Aidan and Adisyn both love playing in the water, but Aidan HATES having water poured over his head when I wash his body, ears, neck, and face. He says “No, give me a towel”. I go ahead and wash him off and then give him a towel to wipe his eyes with. He has been so much better at letting me wash him off with the Bubbly Body wash. He thinks the Bubbles “tickle” him.. Anything that will keep him from twisting and turning and acting like he is having a heart attack in the bath.

It smells citrusy, and is just the right amount of smell. It isn’t overpowering, but it is strong enough so that I get a whiff if the kids if they fly by me after the bath.

For $8.99 you have your kid WILLING to want to be bathed, whether they hate having water on their face or not. It also doubles as a bubble bath, so they can spend some adventure time in the land of bubbles.

 

Dancing Hair Detangler

Adisyn HATES having her hair brushed. Before we met the Dancing Hair Detangler, I would put my conditioner in her hair and let it sit for about 3 minutes before washing it out. She would scream like I was killing her, and I was barely even brushing. She tends to get a million tangles in her hair.

I loved the Detangler from Trukid because I didn’t have to soak her entire head for it to be tangle free. Just a couple of spritzes of this and no more hurting while brushing. I hated having her feeling like her hair was being pulled. No more.

I had tried several detanglers before. Sure they smelled amazing, but they all left a greasy residue in her hair. A child’s hair is much different from a grow-ups because it is thinner. So you don’t need put many ingredients in a child’s hair. This was perfect because her hair still looked clean and smelled great after.

I also used the Detangler for myself. I don’t usually have a lot of tangles, but when I do- I hate brushing them straight out. Brushing tangles without a product to help can actually hurt your hair. It breaks it and makes it uneven.

 

These product gets an A+ from me. I love it. I love that it smells amazing, has no chemicals, and has the awesome bottles that my kids think is “magic”.

Without social media I…

would be lost. I am a stay at home mom. I don’t have many friends that just randomly stop by to say hi. I live in an apartment building that has practically no play area for my kids. So we are inside ALL day just about. Except when it’s warm and we go to the park just about every other day. But still- it’s just ME with the kids at the park. No other mom beside me talking. So I usually just keep updated and say hey through social media.
It also means a lot for my blog. I have been blogging for awhile now, and the most hits come from Social Media. I have met some really AWESOME people through blog groups on Facebook.
I am not sure that I would be the same me without all the blog friends that keep me sane through the day.
Although we ARE planning to move this year and get a house with a fence and a yard. More space for toys, our clothes, and a million yards of fabric and yarn. =)
I seriously CAN’T wait.
Until then, Social Media is my outlet.

Fuller Brush Co. Disposal Clean Review & Giveaway #BdayBonanza

 

About:

My Review

When meals are over there is usually food left on plates at my house. Whether it be eggs, spaghetti, or taco’s.. it all goes down the disposal.

Having food being thrust into your sink doesn’t exactly give you the feeling that it is very clean. Why? Because as food ages, it grows bacteria. That bacteria may live on the inside of the pipes of your sink until you clean it.

garbage disposal cleaner

Until I had seen and used Fuller Brush Disposal Clean, I had never really known of a EASY way to clean the sink disposal. The Fuller Brush Company has been keeping American homes clean for generations and they follow 3 simple rules: Make it Work. Make it Last. Guarantee it no matter what.

So with that being said.. They held true to their promise. I kept the disposal clean without having to do any HARD work.

It comes with a capped top, and a thick straw like attachment. You take the cap off, and put the attachment on. Then put the attachment down into the disposal and spray until you see it emerge to the top. You then go about your business for 3-5 minutes while it works it’s magic.

While it’s working, it is ridding the drain of germs and breaking down food particles that could have been left and stuck inside. It also rids the sink of any odors that are caused from the germs and bacteria from the food. Then you just run warm water down the drain to flush it out.

This disposal clean leaves behind a nice clean smell, while using natural grease cutters. I really like the Fuller Brush Companies products that I have used so far.

The Disposal clean works like a dream, ridding the sink of the disgusting stuff you don’t want to have to think about. The Premium Floor Care cleans your floor without a heavy bucket to pack around. Just squirt the product directly on the floor and get to mopping.

My Review
We got a chance to review the Cach Cach Precious Black Hat w/hot Pink Flower.




Adisyn loves this hat. She wears it everywhere. I love the way that it will fit an infant as well as a toddler. We tried it on the neighbor baby, (6 months) and it fit her as well.
The design is very adorable. It is strong, not shedding or coming lose. The flower is attached very well, not falling down or falling off.
We were shopping on Saturday for Adisyn’s Birthday, and we were asked a million times about where we got it. It is an attention getter. People notice a girl in a hat, it is so cute.
When Adisyn seen me open the package she ran over and said “Oh, pretty.” She immediately wanted it on. This is a child that DOES not like hats, bows, or hair ties. I was extremely surprised, but at the same time GLAD.
She cut her hair horribly short one day while I was washing dishes, and there wasn’t a way to fix it. She wouldn’t keep headbands or clips in very long. She was taking them off and throwing them on the floor.
I was lost for words until we got the hat. Now I can just slip it on her head when we go out, and nobody notices that she has the shortest hair EVER in the front. Thank you Little Fashion’s Boutique. =) Now her Birthday pictures aren’t going to be terrifying.
This shop has some of the cutest outfits I’ve seen all year. I definitely want to add some of these to Adisyn’s wardrobe.
I really like that stuff is so easy to find. Usually I search a website, and then Adam gets on the computer and X’s it out. Then I can never find the same item again. Here you can search by size, Brand, or whatever your specifically looking for (dresses, shoes, accessories…)
They have some beautiful Valentine’s Clothes. Such a great selection for all ages. They have brightly colored dresses if that is what you’re looking for, or they have lighter more feminine colors (like the one on the bottom right)
Ooh La La Couture  Hot Pink "Wow" Dream Dress Top SellerCach Cach  Fuschia Poinsettia pattern 2pc party Dress & headband
Haute Baby  "Wild Heart" 3pc Valentine's Tutu SetLuna Luna Copenhagen Luxurious Holiday Juliette Dress in Dusty Pink

They just got a new shipment of 2012 Spring Arrival of Clothes, and they are all so adorable. From Babies to tweens- dress them all. These designs are so awesome. I wish I had all of these. They are all beautifully made, with the highest quality.

I also really like their selection of hair bows. Very wide selection of styles and colors. Would definitely find something for every outfit or child your looking for.
