Bath Luve Giveaway - CLOSED

Congrats to our winner:



jennem said...I love the Frog!


I truly cannot imagine the changes, surprises, and traumas that babies go through while adjusting from life inside a nice cozy warm womb to the light, bright, cold, and strange world they experience after they are born.  No wonder they cry a lot! =)

Some children really just cannot stand a bath. And it really should not be a surpise, I guess. To be partially submerged and have water poured over you would warm you enough to bring comfort, but then quickly become a really cold experience as the cool air hit your wet body would really be a chilling experience.

One mom recognized this and designed Bath Luve products to help remedy this situation.

Bath Luve is one of those ideas that makes you think, "now why didn't I think of that?" 



Specially shaped to fit around your baby's limbs while covering their torso completely, Bath Luve products come in "duck," "fish," or "frog" versions that are all unisex and would be perfect for your little one or as an awesome shower gift.

And now Bath Luve has expanded their product line to include plush "buddies" to match the original Bath Luve products and great for entertaining baby while they get clean. Towels and washclothes are also available, allowing you to coordinate baby's entire bathtime experience. And with products starting at $5.99, it's an affordable AND adorable bathtime option!

My Baby Clothes Boutique Review and Giveaway


CLOSED
Winner- #60 tamiv!

My daughter McKenzie thinks she is a princess...no she knows she is a princess. Everyday she picks out a princess dress or a skirt and she is ready for the day. My one problems is that I end up washing a lot of her play clothes and they seem to come unraveled. Its hard to find high quality dress up clothes. I was excited to find
My Baby Clothes Boutique because they have some beautiful and unique clothes. When we went onto their website McKenzie immediately picked out the Zilly Bean White Pettiskirt.

My Baby Clothes Boutique searches to find the cutest, most comfortable, and highest quality clothes and accessories available.  Our goal is to offer these unique and trendy boutique style clothes at affordable prices. Here's some of what they offer: Tutus, Baby Clothes, Baby Headband, and Baby Hats

After receiving the product I was very impressed with the quality of the material and the fullness of the pettiskirt. I will be buying more products from My Baby Clothes Boutique in the future. I even washed the skirt following the washing instructions and it came out looking fine. With as much as McKenzie has worn it, it is still in great shape.

Ramy Beauty Therapy Makeup Review

Celebrity makeup artist and critically-acclaimed “Brow King,” Ramy Gafni, proudly rolls out his “Fall in Love” Makeup Collection for fall 2011, this line is a re-release of his classic fall favorites. The collection highlights this upcoming season’s most beautiful, rich colors and promises that you will fall for these products. This palette includes vivid and luminous shades, while conserving the unmistakable feeling of calmness, serenity and glamour of the season.

RAMY beauty therapy makeup is formulated with anti-oxidant vitamins, avocado oil and sunscreens. They are high quality products that live by the Ramy philosophy of "Minimum Makeup Maximum Impact!" The entire product line was created to work well with any skin tone, from the lightest to the darkest complexions and to be used for a variety of looks from the most glamorous to the most wearable everyday look.

I was given the entire "Classic Fall in Love" Fall 2011 collection to review. This collection includes:

Neutral Impact! Eye ShadowThe eyes have it with Ramy's silky-smooth eye shadow, the only eye shadow you need this Fall! Ramy Beauty takes the guesswork out of selecting the ideal eye shadow for your skin tone with this smooth-textured, universal hue. Neutral Impact makes a big statement in a matte, sable taupe shade.

Blush in Alive!—One of a kind, long-wearing color. Micronized and silicone treated for extremely smooth application. This blush literally seems to bring skin to life with its perfect blend of pink, gold and brown color. Great for sweeping over eyes to really make eye color pop! A great alternative for women who are not inclined to wear eye shadows. Simply sweep over eyes with blush brush for a finished, polished look


Lipstick in Ramy Red!—Ramy’s signature formula is loaded with avocado oil, vitamin E, and sunscreen to help nourish and protect your lips while delivering dynamic color and guaranteed to bring a beautiful, moisturized finish to any lip. Ramy Red! is a universally flattering shade of red sure to create moist, full, healthy lips.


 Lipstick in Thrive!—Luscious lips look even yummier in a sensuous shade. Perk   up your pucker with the creamy, brown- based burgundy-plum hue. Your lips will never be as sultry as with Ramy’s special seasonal lipstick. With a flawless hold, Thrive! is a must for the plumped, sensual look.


OMG! Over Mascara Glitter & LinerMakes Your Eyes Look Magical! OMG! is the first of its kind with it’s revolutionary 2-in-1 mascara wand and eye liner applicator. Created to work in perfect harmony, the wand and liner make the glitter application easy-to-use for the makeup beginner or the makeup junkie. As an added bonus, the unique, 3-dimensional holographic shimmer creates the perfect come hither, glitterazzi look. The formula is moisturizing, quick-drying, and non-irritating to ensure a smooth and smudge-free application. And because it’s water-based, it’s safe to use on eyebrows, hair and lips.

This was my first experience with Ramy beauty therapy cosmetics and I was very impressed with this collection. The eye shadow color worked perfectly with my complexion giving my eyes subtle color with a light shimmer. The blush was nice as far as giving a little glow to your cheeks, it did not give much color but more of a dewiness that I tend to like. I love the lipstick in Ramy Red, perfect for a night out. It also goes on very smoothly and the color lasts a long time. The mascara glitter & liner is great. I have a favorite eyeshadow that I wear if I am going out at night that has glitter in it. I love wearing it but it is yellow so sometimes it just doesn't work. OMG! Over Mascara Glitter & Liner is my absolute favorite product from this collection. The glitter is silvery sparkles that give your eyes a really nice pop. It is a  2-in-1 mascara wand and eye liner applicator so at the end of the mascara brush is the liner tip. Be careful when you are applying the mascara I poked my eyes twice and I am pretty much a mascara pro, I wear it all the time. The mascara brush is very spiky which makes it perfect for covering up all your lashes but it took me awhile to get use to applying it. The liner itself goes on great and the pointed tip makes it very easy to apply a straight line. All in all I loved these cosmetics but they are a little pricier then what I usually spend on these items. 

Neutral Impact! Eye Shadow! Price:  $17.00
Lipstick in Whine! and Lipstick in Thrive! Price:  $17.00
Alive! Blush Price:  $19.00
OMG!  Price:$24.00

If you are looking for good quality makeup then you probably won't have any problem paying these amounts. You can purchase Ramy beauty therapy cosmetics online and in and Duane Reade ‘Look Boutiques’ nationwide.

Mother-ease Review and Giveaway

CLOSED
Winner- #57
My son Grayson is 7 months old now and I have been using cloth diapers for the last six months. I think that they're great for the environment and they are a great money saver. The down fall has been that at night my son seems to wet a lot and I have had to go back to disposal diapers which I really would rather not. It really defeats the purpose of having cloth diapers. So when my friend introduced me to the Mother-ease website I was excited to try their product.
Mother-ease diapers were created by a mother in 1983 who wanted a better cloth diaper. Better than the traditional flat, rectangular cloth diapers, which need to be folded and pinned, along with the plastic pant which went over top to keep his clothes dry. That's when she created breathable All In One cloth diaper. With an exclusive side ventilation system, it combines an outer waterproof cover with an inner absorbent cotton material. Plastic snaps make cloth diapering easy and it fits a baby’s bottom snugly.

Mother-ease soon discovered a need for a cloth diaper for heavy wetters. They designed their Sandy’s™ cloth diaper and appropriately named it Sandy after their son. With a snug fit it is shaped to fit a baby’s contours, but is of a heavier construction and snaps shut at the sides. The diaper comes in two sizes. In order to make it waterproof, this cloth diaper requires a separate cover.


Sandy's Systems

I tried the Sandy’s™ cloth diapers which comes in two main sizes: Small (8-20 lbs.) and Large (20-35 lbs.) They also offer Newborn and Toddle-ease cloth diapers which offer a custom fit for newborns and toddlers. These cloth diapers are made from our same soft stretchy terry cloth using the same quality of workmanship, but they have an extra layer of absorbent terry sewn to the inside of the diaper. The fit of the cloth diaper is slightly roomier. Elastic at the waist front and back as well as the leg openings, together with the snap closures at the sides create a clean pant-like look. A surged edge finishes the diaper. Our large Sandy’s™ cloth diaper is one of the most absorbent cloth diapers ever, and holds 15 oz. When used together with our Sandy’s™ Cloth Diaper Liners it makes an extravagant nighttime cloth diaper.

I also added the leak-free cloth diaper cover that refuses to compromise breathability. The Air Flow™ Snap Cover, with adjustable snaps at the waist and leg opening has an air ventilation system between the snaps. This allows for maximum air circulation as the baby moves, reducing the risk of bacteria by keeping the temperature in side the diaper down.
The first time I put the diaper on I thought it was a little bulky even for a cloth diaper but it worked. I have been using the diaper at night since. Grayson is now sleeping better and I am too. It's a great diaper for heavy wetters at night. I will be buying a few more so that I don't have to wash it everyday.
Check out Mother-ease to see what other diapers they have to offer.
Want to win the Unbleached Cotton Large Sandy's Diaper, a Large Unbleached Cotton Liner and a Med-Large (20-27 lbs) Air Flow Snap Cover?
