Ecostore USA – Review and BONUS giveaway

Saturday, April 4th, 2009

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

I try to do my part in the “Go Green” efforts but I have not completely converted yet.  I am however open to new products and I will give anything a try.  Especially products that are Eco-friendly.  I have done some reviews in the past for items that were chemical free.  From doing those reviews I was forced to “research” some of the nasty chemicals that take over our everyday useful products.  All the toxins that are added.  It is a little frightening.

I was given the opportunity to review some products from Ecostore USA.  I had my choice of several products and it was a tough choice.  They had so many great products to chose from.  The products I chose were the Vanilla shampoo and conditioner (for myself) and the baby body wash.

Their eco-friendly, plant based household cleaning products are just as effective as the supermarket brands. The best part is that it is without the nasty chemicals. They have hair care, pet care, baby care, household and bath/body products.

For starters I used the baby wash on my 2 lil ones. The baby wash has an aromatherapy sent. It was clean and refreshing it just made me think of when I got a pedicure. It is a very mild formula but it left my baby’s skin feeling clean and soft. My son has always had some rougher skin, I don’t want to say it’s eczema because it is not really bad at all but I will say that it seemed to leave his skin a little less bumpy from using this baby wash. Maybe all the chemicals of the normal baby wash is what is causing his skin to be so rough.

Next I tried the shampoo and conditioner. The aromatherapy in the shampoo helps nourish your scalp. I enjoyed the vanilla scent of both shampoo and conditioner. It rinsed clean in my hair and didn’t leave a slimy residue. The conditioner restores the hairs natural, healthy balance.
They have different hair products just right for your hair type, dandruff control, oily or dry/chemically treated.

Now for the best part, Ecostore USA is offering one of my readers a $25 gift certificate.  Even better is since April is Earth month, if you make a purchase during the month of April for $25 or more, you will get FREE SHIPPING!

How great is that.  So what I am going to do is run this giveaway until April 12 @11:59pm EST.  That way the gift certificate can reach the winner before the end of the month and they can take advantage of the free shipping.

So this giveaway is easy to enter as well, just visit Ecostore USA and tell me what you would spend the $25 on. Leave me a comment and you will be entered in to the giveaway!

Sweet Tomatoes….

Friday, April 3rd, 2009

Nicki and I absolutely love this place.  She loves that it’s a buffet style restaurant, loves the soups, pasta, baked goods as well as the self serve desserts.  What kid wouldn’t like to pile on the ice cream and candy topping.  I love the choices of toppings it has for a salad.  I enjoy salads but it has to be loaded.

How great is this April is Lemon month at Sweet Tomatoes.  In order to celebrate, Sweet Tomatoes is featuring 9 lemon-y dishes from soups to cakes.

Here are a few of the featured dishes:

DaBib is DaBomb! (review and BONUS giveaway)

Monday, March 23rd, 2009

My son is a mess when he eats.  I think more food lands in his lap than in his mouth.  Lil Bel eating her baby food is just a mess too.  She likes to suck her fingers while I am feeding her which in turn makes all the food from her mouth end up on her arms, her legs and her chest.  I usually feed my kids just in their diaper and make sure their bath is planned for after they eat, that is how I used to do it.

Well it worked out better over the months to just bathe them and then feed them, but that just ended up with tons of wipes being used to clean up all the food dribbled on their bodies.  Well, not anymore!!

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

I was given the opportunity to review one of DaBib’s products.  The bib I chose was the DaGiggles style.  I personally chose this one because I liked the colors.  I also thought it was great it had a waterproof front and back.  That made clean up a snap.  The DaGiggles is 100% polyester.

I like that the bib has a comfy “Scrunch Neck”.  It makes wearing the bib, not so uncomfortable.  You can hand or machine wash the bib and hang dry or dry low.  The other great feature is the crumb catcher is reversible.  The bib isn’t reversible, just the crumb catcher.  You can flip the “catcher” to the back for an infant who is only eating baby food and as they grow up and venture into eating by themselves, you can flip the “catcher” to the front.  It is a great idea.

Now on to the great news!  Not only will I be hosting a giveaway for DaBib but they are also giving my readers a discount code to receive 20% off your order.  Plus if you order 3 or more items, you will receive FREE SHIPPING! I love free shipping.  This coupon code is good through March, so don’t delay, head on over to DaBib today and place your order before March 31.

Discount Code: MOM2009

Now for the giveaway, DaBib is offering one of my readers a DaBib of their choice.  I’ll make this easy, all you have to do to enter is head over to DaBib and leave me a comment telling me which bib you would chose.  That’s it!

So check out DaBib and get your DaBooty back over here and enter this giveaway.  It will end March 31 @ 11:59pm EST!

Thanks again Mom Fuse and DaBib for this great opportunity!

A little bit about my family:
I am a SAHM of 4 wonderful children and I have the most amazing boyfriend! I am trying to get my online business up and running. Paper crafts and scrapbooking is what I love to do in my free time (when I get some, 4 kids keep me busy) and to try and turn my hobby into a way to make money so I can stay home with my kids that would be wonderful. If you are in to paper crafting and scrapbooking or know someone that is please check out my online store: Artfuldelight.com. Nicki, Tony, Isabel and Max are the joy in my life, I love being home with them but sometimes money can be tight. Hopefully I can have some success with this store.
