Better Late than Never

        

Sorry for the wait readers as I stated on the daily blog I have not had even a second to get on and write but tonight I am and here are some weekly reviews.

First we have Nourish's fantastic body wash and lotion combo in almond vanilla this stuff is like magic it leaves skin super hydrated and smells incredible five out of five easy. Get Your Own Here!

Next we have Intelligent Nutrients "Harmonic" shampoo and conditioner. This set leaves a nice deep clean to your hair while also adding a nice cool tingling sensation. five out of five. Get Your Own Here!

Next we have some products from NutureMe. Both my boys loved their yum-a-roos in caribbean crop but their mix ups only went over well with my 18 month old although I do think this may be different if you have younger ones so 3.5 out of five. Get Your Own Here!

Now we have Rainbow's "Baby Oh Baby" colloidal oatmeal unscented baby wash. This is truely fantastic for sensitive skin little ones. Gets them very clean without residue and all you smell after is clean five out of five. Get Your Own Here!

Next we have The Real Deal's REAL! VeggieChips let me first say I was not that big of a fan that being said this were a huge hit with Richie and the boys. We have went through nearly every sample bag because they can not get enough five out of five. Get Your Own Here!

Next we have a few products from Sage Stone Botanicals. While for their Milk and Honey lotion alone I would love to give them a five out of five their lemongrass hand cream was just to strong for my liking for this reason I give them a four out of five. Get Your Own Here!

Last for tonight we have a few products from Mountain Crafted. I love their cherry almond lotion it is truely to me like cherry cordials at Christmas and I did really enjoy the peppermint & eucalyptus shampoo and conditioner. However with the shampoo and conditioner it did not go on sparingly enough for my preference. That being said four out of five.  Get Your Own Here!

Like I said earlier in the post I apologize for my long absent and am hoping to be able to make more of a turn around this coming week.

Snack Reviews



Today's Reviews Sexy Pop, Pop Corners, and Bare Fruit Apple Chips. Three nature based snacks to get you on your go and allow you to still feel satiated.

First up is Sexy Pop they sent me quite a few flavors to try including black pepper, bangin' cheddar, Brazilian coconut, and lightly salted. These were a huge hit with my guys. Dale has been eating them as a snack and can't get enough and the hubby has been grabbing the small bags and taking them for his lunches at work. The texture and flavors make for a super delicious combo that i for one think takes them to the top of the natural pop corn list (not to mention it's GMO free yep major points). Five out of five without even trying. Don't believe me try them for yourself at http://sexypop.us/.

Next was a surprise for us because my family has not been a huge fan of apple chips. Bare Fruit Crunchy Cinnamon Apple Chips are as my husband put it "the best apple chips we've ever had" They have a nice crispy texture that my kids love and a not too over powering cinnamon flavor. My only and I do mean only draw back is that there was a piece of stem in a few of the bags. That's not to say these are not delicious 4.5 out of five. Get your own at http://www.baresnacks.com/. Oh and PS keep an eye out on future reviews for a link to a special giveaway of their chips just for fans!

And finally we have the one that was not a contender Pop Corners I really wanted to like these I tried but it was just not meant to be. The concept is great popped corn chips kind of like a pop corn tortilla chip. However my two year old refused to eat more than one and my husband was convinced they were stale. Maybe we got a bad bag so I don't want to pull their feet out from under them. So for the facts that I have I have to give them a 3 out of five. See if you have better luck at http://www.popcorners.com/.

I know it's Friday, but I couldn't resist!

I think since so many amazing companies have sent me samples and products to try at least for the foreseeable future I will post reviews on Fridays, and Sundays.

First up is Dr. Nate's Natural Lip Therapy. I am usually a pretty huge Burt's Bees lip balm fan so it majorly surprised me when I found this formula so much nicer. It's in a squeeze bottle glides nicely and has the cooling peppermint while also having the healing properties of tea tree oil. Hands down a five out of five. You can pick up your own at their website http://www.drnates.com/ or you can try your luck over on the Mommalosiphy FB page where I will be giving one away for the most referrals when we reach 200 likes.

Next is Dr. Woods Red Currant Clove Raw Shea Butter Soap. Oh my goodness I can not say enough nice things about this bar soap the smell is aromatic almost like a cinnamon parade for the senses. It contains black peppercorns which really make you skin feel rejuvenated. Me and the hubby agreed five out of five. You can pick up your own at their website. http://drwoodssoap.wordpress.com/
 or by doing a search for them on amazon.

Next is The Carrot Ginger Veggie-Go's by Naked Edge Snacks I am going to be honest I thought that this would have been a bigger hit than it was. My son liked the first few bites but was not a big fan of the texture. I would see these probably going over better with an older child but for us it has to receive a 3.5 out of five. Try them for yourselves at http://www.veggiegos.com/shop%20online.html.

Nest we have though not pictured above the HappyBaby and HappyTot squeezes. My children adored these they are huge squeeze lovers and this got them majorly pumped. There are so many flavors and levels to choose from they really are a fantastic choice for healthy organic quick snacks. They receive a five out of five. Try your own by visiting their site and doing a store search to find a retailer in your area, http://happyfamilybrands.com/.

Next is Dr. Bronner's 18-in-1 Peppermint Pure Castile Soap. If I am being honest this wasn't my favorite Castile soap. It didn't really have a consistency of which I have been used too. However the smell was exhilarating. It did clean well so I give them a four out of five. You can check it out yourself at their website http://happyfamilybrands.com/.

Next is Moon Valley Organics lotion bar. From the moment I opened the tin the scent of vanilla got me excited. (I have not been able to have vanilla lotion in a long time do to a severe sensitivity to parfume) But their products are scented with nothing but USDA certified organic essential oils. The lotion feels great on the skin very light weight and smooth. They full on deserve a five out of five. hurry on over to their page and try some for your self http://moonvalleyorganics.myshopify.com/.

And last for today but certainly not least is the Pure Soap Flake Company. I have been using their flakes to do laundry and I think it is amazing such a small amount can do so much. We are normally paying out the wazoo to use a big name free and clear detergent which is not half as stretchable as these flakes. They are simple and perfect for the skin sensitive (like me and my boys) for these reasons they get a five out of five. Pick up your own at http://puresoapflakes.com/.

Well there you go readers an early blog to hold you on over until Sunday hope these were helpful.

Nim's Natural Soap "Tea Time"

             This weeks review is on Nim's Natural Soap known as "Tea Time" my first impression was that it smelled heavenly. Ingredients are saponified (coconut oil, olive oil, cocoa butter), brewed organic green tea, distilled water, and mint essential oil. I used this soap in the tub after a long night without any sleep, I instantly felt as though the natural caffeine was helping awake my skin. After rinsing I felt very clean no nasty residue like you get from synthetic "soap" products. I'd say I have to give this product a five out of five. You can purchase your Tea Time Soap online at www.nimsnaturalsoap.com/.
