Piggy Paint Review & Coupon Code!

By ·

Piggy Paint

I was recently contacted to review Piggy Paint, a safe nail polish for kids! I was very excited to review for them, because I like to paint my daughters toe nails, but was always hesitant to do so because I was not sure how “safe” it would be for her.

Piggy Paint

We received a Piggy Paint in Candy-Coated. It is a really pretty lavender color. I painted my toes as well as my daughters toes (piggies :) ) and her nails. Of course my son was pouting in the corner, so I had to do his piggies too! Sigh! At least the weather is getting a bit chillier, so my son will be wearing socks and shoes now, LOL! I love how there is absolutely no smell! I love how it goes on smoothly and dries fairly quickly. I love that it is as natural as mud! We also received the nail polish remover. When I opened it I was so shocked that it has NO SMELL! No harmful fumes! Wow, I am very impressed and even more so impressed by the way it takes off nail polish! So easy and works just as well as the smelly nail polish removers I have been using for years. I am sold! How wonderful! Safe for us and safe for our environment, you can’t go wrong!

About Piggy Paint (taken off their site):

Piggy Paint

My name is Melanie Hurley, founder of Piggy Paint™. I am a stay-at-home mom with two very fancy little girls, ages 2 and 4, who love to have their fingernails painted. I’ve always hated the thought of my kiddos putting their hands in their mouths after I painted their nails with traditional kid polishes. Not only did the ingestion of the chemicals worry me, but the smell nearly left me light-headed after painting two sets of fingernails and toenails.

One day while we were painting nails over a foam plate, my daughter dropped a glob of her solvent-based polish onto the plate. Shortly after, the paint began to bubble and “ate” through the plate. I looked in dismay at the hole in the plate and decided to test all of her other “kid” polishes on the foam. Within minutes, ALL of the solvent-based polishes began to bubble and eventually left big holes in the plate. From that day on, I decided that any flammable substance that could eat through foam was unacceptable for my children’s fingernails, which would inevitably end up in their mouths.

My quest was on, and Piggy Paint™ was born. As you may have guessed, our polish is NOT flammable and sits beautifully on the unaffected foam. We hope you enjoy this water-based polish that is specially formulated of natural ingredients. Finally, a kid-friendly polish without the accompanying drawbacks of traditional polishes. It is free of formaldehyde, toluene, phthalates, biphenyl A, ethyl acetate and acetone… and made in the USA!

Striking Skin Care Review & Giveaway!!

By ·

CONTEST OVER! THANKS TO ALL WHO ENTERED! CONGRATS TO JOANNA SMITH, COMMENT #90!!!

Striking Skin Care

I had the chance to review some really great skin care products and I want to share them with you! The line is called Striking and it is amazing!

Striking Skin Care

I received the Striking Daily Essentials Product Set to review. I have been using it for about a week and really like the products. The kit came with:

*Multi-Vitamin Creme Cleanser

*Restorative Moisture Creme

*Rejuvenating Eye Creme

*Multi-Peptide Serum

The creme cleanser is wonderful. I love the way it cleans my face without leaving it irritated or tight afterwards. The serum is great. I loved putting it on my face. It absorbs quickly and leaves my skin feeling soft. The eye creme makes the little lines around my eyes less noticeable and the moisture creme for my face leaves it so soft and supple. This skin care line is wonderful! It is not irritating to my skin and leaves it refreshed feeling and clean.

About Striking Skin Care (taken off their site):

In November 2008, Striking Skin Care with SmartPeptides launched as a new skin care line marketed to women over 40. We know fine lines, wrinkles and loss of firmness are a concern for women dealing with changing hormones. As we age, our skin thins and collagen breaks down. Firmness is lessened and wrinkles start to develop appearing gradually over time. Skin can appear dull and less radiant than before.

There are three SmartPeptides™ that are used in the Striking skin care product line. Each of them has been added to provide visible results for the user. By adding specific peptides to the formulations, targeted concerns can be addressed. Tests have shown that SmartPeptides boost collagen production and migration to support the extracellular matrix. This helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while increasing firmness. Over time, skin feels firmer and supple and looks younger, vibrant and refreshed.

We know that it is important to design products that are conscientious to consumer needs and provide solutions for skin health. Consumers are now more than ever invested in product education and in knowing what they are putting on their skin. Striking was formulated with that in mind and all of the products are paraben, phthalate and fragrance free. Additionally, the products do not contain pore-clogging or formaldehyde releasing ingredients.

We are pleased to know that we have designed formulations that not only provide results, but are also products that people would recommend to their friends.

96% of participants in a study say that they would recommend this to their friends!

BUY IT!

You can purchase Striking Skin Care products by going to their website HERE! Free shipping on orders $75 or more!

WIN IT!

Striking Skin Care is offering one person the chance to win a Striking Rejuvenating Eye Creme, 0.5oz! (ARV $35)

Smucker’s Uncrustables Review!

By ·

Smuckers

I was recently sent a coupon to try on the new Smucker’s Uncrustables new whole-wheat sandwiches! I was unsure if my children would even want to try them out, as they are so picky! But, when I brought them home and gave them to my kids, they seemed pretty interested in them, and actually ate most of them up! I took them along with us in the car, while me and my husband were running our weekend errands. These are great on the go snacks, just keep some hand wipes handy and you are good to go!

uncrustables

Check out the different kinds they have, yum!

So, over all, my children liked them. If my babies eat them, I am pretty sure they are good!

“I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central on behalf of Smucker’s Uncrustables and received a sample to facilitate my candid review. In addition, Mom Central sent me a gift card to thank me for taking the time to participate.”

ARM & HAMMER Spinbrush Pro Clean Sonic, Baby Orajel Reviews & A Giveaway!!

By ·

CONTEST OVER! THANKS TO ALL WHO ENTERED!!! CONGRATS TO JENNA Z, COMMENT #39!!!

I recently was able to review the wonderful Arm & Hammer Spinbrush Pro Clean Sonic Toothbrush and my kids got to review the wonderful baby Orajel!

I love this toothbrush! I can’t believe how clean my teeth feel after I am done using this! With the Spinbrushes dual-action, oscillating brush head and bristles, it removes up to 70% more plaque in the hard-to-reach places than a manual toothbrush! And Spinbrush® costs just a few dollars more than a manual brush, which is so nice!

The Baby Orajel, my daughter tried this out (and of course my 3 year old!) They loved the taste, and I was impressed, because my kids WANTED to brush their teeth! This is always a big thing for us, I usually have to sit on my 3 year old to brush his teeth because he rarely wants to do it himself, and throws a huge fit! Not fun! So, when he used this Baby Orajel, he DID brush his teeth. Nice break for Mom!

BUY IT!

You can buy any of these great products at your local grocery store or by going HERE for the Spinbrush and HERE for the Baby Orajel!

WIN IT!

One lucky winner will get a Arm & Hammer | Spinbrush Pro Clean Sonic Toothbrush and ARM & HAMMER Advance White Toothpaste!

HOW?

Easy! Just tell me why you need this prize pack! That is it!
