Sebamed Lip Defense Review

You may recall a couple of months ago I reviewed Sebamed's Hand & Nail Balm.  I was also given the opportunity to try another one of their products, Sebamed's Lip Defense Lip Balm w/ SPF 30.  Like their hand & nail balm I love this lip balm. It is very soothing and really works! I also love that it has such a high sun protection, especially now that we are living in sunny southern California.

Sebamed Lip Defense smoothes dry, chapped lips and leaves them feeling soft and supple. The dermatologist-tested Sebamed Lip Defense formula features triple protection, leaving you with complete lip therapy. The lip balm regenerates with Vitamin E and chamomile extract, nurtures with essential plant extracts jojoba and rice bran, and defends with both UVA and UVB filters.

Because of the added SPF in this lip balm it was great to have on hand during the summer and I used it pretty much everyday. Now with colder weather heading our way this is going to be nice for dry chapped lips. The entire Sebamed skin care line is 100 percent soap and alkali-free, paraben-free, biodegradable and recommended by dermatologists. You can purchase online although Sebamed Lip Defense is currently on backorder.

Label Daddy Review and Giveaway

CLOSED

Winner 21 Tara Oliver

 

 

Label Daddy was started by two long time friends who happen to be daddies. After continously hearing parents complaining about having to spend time labeling and re-labeling clothes and other items that their children took to camp or school with so-called permanent markers that often faded in the wash. The Label Daddies came up with a easy to use and durable solution.
 
I was given the opportunity to review these products and at the most ideal time too, back to school time.

 
I chose to review their School Pack which includes 1 Bag Tag, 45 Extra Small Labels, 30 Small, 20 Medium, 1 Large, 18 Mini Shoe Labels, 8 Shoe Labels, and 4 Zipper Tags. This is everything you need to make sure your child's belongings will stay safe and return home with them where they belong. I was very impressed with the durability of the labels and tags but what I especially like about Label Daddy is that you can customize your labels in a variety of ways. Not only can you choose font and color but they also have icons that can be placed on your labels. Everything from sports logos to Disney!

I let my daughter Penelope choose how she wanted her labels to look and this is what she chose.

What four year old doesn't love Cinderella? We have been using our labels and tags on backpacks, lunch boxes, water bottles, clothes and shoes for school and we still have plenty.

Label Daddy will also create other labels for all your labeling needs. I really like the spice labels.

 

And for the upcoming holidays you can even find these festive holiday sets that include gift tags for decorating and labeling all those gifts!

Navitas Review and Giveaway

Closed #43 

I workout a lot and my eating habits...Well, lets just say are not as healthy as they should be to keep my body at it’s best. My unhealthy cravings get worse during my crazy schedule and change in fitness schedule. My crazy cravings often lead to a quick snack filled with sugar or salt or carbs, but what I need instead is a much healthier grab-and-go snack I can carry around with me. I need something like the Navitas Power Snacks I recently had the opportunity to try.

All the ingredients in the new organic Navitas Power Snacks are certified organic and raw. They are also not filled with artificial colors and flavors. They are dairy free, GMO-free, gluten-free, vegan and are packed with fiber, antioxidants and many other wonderful beneficial ingredients.

What I received: an 8 oz. bag of Cacao Goji Power Snack and an 8 oz. bag Blueberry Hemp Power Snack. Of the two flavors, I preferred the Cacao Goji to the Blueberry but the blueberry was good too. I was also sent a BPA-free Camelback water bottle celebrating the "Smoothment" program. I love this bottle and use it daily at the gym and everywhere else I go. The design is attractive. The top with lift spout and straw makes it a perfect for on the go water bottle.

The power snacks come in bite sized pieces in resalable bags and I like that. It makes it easy to grab, eat and go. I can taste the date flavor emphasis in the bites sizes, but this isn’t a bad thing. It just a new flavor that took me a little getting use to and when I did I couldn’t stop snacking on them. When it comes to food, texture in the food is really important to me. Food, especially snacks, especially healthy snacks, have to have a bit of a crunch, need to be moist and easy to eat without crumbling all over the place. I was pleasantly pleased with the textures of these bite size snacks. They have a soft, chewy consistency to them with a nutty crunch texture to them.

The only thing I regret is not joining the Smoothment. I went through the power snacks too fast to try and make a smoothie, but looking at the brochures sent to me with the samples, I am really interested in trying the Choco-Maca-Nana Shake energy smoothie (even the name is energizing) and the Tropical Detox Smoothie. The good news is I can shop for Navitas products I need to make these blends at my local HEB.

For more information on Navitas products visit Navitas Naturals or Navitas Naturals Facebook page.

The giveaway: One lucky winner will receive a BPA-free camelbak water bottle and a bag of Navitas Power Snacks. To Enter: Leave me a comment telling me what power snack flavor your prefer to try, blueberry hemp or cacao goji. You can get extra entries for liking Navitas on Facebook.
