Belli All Day Moisture Body Lotion Review

Belli is a great company that understand and addresses the skin care need of expectant mothers and new mothers. Belli skin products has three brand lines in their company. They are Belli Pregnancy, Belli Motherhood and Belli Baby. 

 

I was given the chance to review a product from Belli. I recently received a product called Belli All Day Moisture Body Lotion. This come in a nice pump bottle easy to use. This bottle comes in a 12 fl oz bottle. This lotion is a lightly scented lotion. When I used this lotion it is recommended use once a day on dampen skin. 

This lotion is a nice lotion that absorbs nicely into your skin. It moisturizes deep into your skin. Also if you have dry and irritated skin like me, this product helps relief the irritation and helps smooth your dry skin. In this product it features lemon oil which is known for it uplifting qualities. This product also has Chamomile which helps smooths and refreshes your skin. This product also has Vitamin E and antioxidant. 

I was really impressed with this body lotion. It left my skin nice and smooth. It also did not leave a sticky or greasy feeling. You can find Belli All Day Moisture Body Lotion and their other products on their website.

Pickle Peas Review

Are you looking for something special and unique for your baby/toddler. You have come to the right place. Pickle Peas is a unique organic clothing line. Their clothing line is fun and not like any other clothing line. Their outfit are customized for each child. 

I was sent a 12 month old boy shirt and pants set for review. Pickle Peas is proud to make a positive impact on their environment. Their clothing is earth friendly fabric that is 100 percent organic cotton. When I opened up the package they wrapped the outfit in pretty tissue paper. When I took the outfit out the first thing that I noticed is how soft the outfit was. I wish all clothing could be that gentle and soft. 

The pants were 12 months in size. They came in grey color. What I love about these pants are soft and great quality. The stretch a little bit. I also like how the pants have elastic at the top where you can stretch them and fit your baby/toddler. The shirt that I received was a blue color long sleeve shirt. What is different about this shirt is that there is an animal print on the front of the shirt. The one that it came with is a monkey. What is really unique is you can take off the monkey and put another animal/truck on your child shirt. You can change them how often you would like, due to the snaps that are on the back. Which is really nice is that you can have a nice shirt and can change the decal when ever you would like.

 Overall I would recommend Pickle Peas and their clothing store. They have wonderful customer service. They are very friendly. Also they have amazing baby clothing that is super soft for your baby/toddler. This would make a great expectant gift, shower gift. or even holiday gift for Christmas. You can find their clothing on their website below

Baby Journey Magic Tray Set Review (holiday gift guide review)

I think shopping for a child under a year old for the holidays is the most difficult for me. I am never sure what to buy or what to look for. I tend to spend hour and hours just trying to pick one thing out and majority of the time I end up buying nothing. 

When I was recently introduced to Baby Journey they are a great site for babies. They carry baby gates, bath, changing pads and travel accessories. I was able to review their new products that are coming out this fall and they are the safari magic tray and tea party magic tray. When I heard about this Magic Tray Set I thought it was a great idea.

When we received both the safari and tea set magic tray in the mail. My opinion changed from a great idea to an amazing toy for a child under a year old. What I love about these trays is that you can bring them on the go. I know that my child at 6 months would get bored in the car or at the restaurant and this would make the perfect toy. On this magic tray there is a power zone and this brings the toys to life. In the Safari set the lion roars, the toucan's wings flap and the monkeys banana lights up. Then the tea set the tea pot whistles, cupcake candle lights up and the cup spoon stirs. I also like how this comes with a storage bag that you can bring on the go with you. The tray's dimensions is 

11L x 8.5 W x 2H and the toys are 2.5H. The toys do take batteries and the batteries are not included. 

If you are looking to find the perfect toy this year for 6+ I would highly recommend Baby Journey Magic Tray. These sets are very cute and brings a lot of fun for your baby. I wish  had these sets when my children were that age. I would highly recommend this product. You can find the Magic Tray at their website. Baby Journey Magic Tray.

Jack & Lily Review and Giveaway

When it comes to my children's feet I am always trying to find them quality footwear. It seems like my children's feet are always growing. I found a great company that has great quality shoes for babies and toddlers and they are called Jack and Lily. What I found interesting about the owners of Jack & Lily have been in the leather business for over 25 years. Their goal is to bring great quality shoes that are comfortable and healthy for your children's feet. 

I was sent a pair of their fury brown boots from their boot collections. Since summer is slowly fading and the colder months are approaching. I thought this product would be perfect for my daughter. The pair that I received are size 24-30 months. My daughter is two years old so they will fit her this winter. When I received this package in the mail I let my daughter open it up. She felt special after she saw the cute Jack & Lily box inside. This is a nice see through box would make a great box as a gift giving box. My daughter insisted that I put them on her feet right away. When I put them on her feet they fit very well. She was moving pretty well with them on and had to have them on majority of the day. I  would say they were pretty comfortable for her. The boot is a brown and the top of the boot is furry beige color. Than back of the boot is also furry down the size. Then there is a draw string on the back also to adjust the size to make the wider or snugger so they stay on. Which is pretty nice feature that they have. Also on the inside of the boot is also furry which is nice. It will keep the child's foot nice and warm during the cold months. I am really impressed with the quality and design of their boots. This would make a great item to have during the holiday season this year. I know I am going to have my daughter wearing these to our family parties.

Exederm Review

When it comes to babies skin and toddlers skin, I try and find the best products that are out there. My daughter has very sensitive skin and I have to find just the right product for her skin. When I came across exederm I was very interested to see if these products would help my daughters skin.

A little bit about exederm products and their company. There company believes that their line of products are simply sensible approach for anyone who suffers from eczema, dermatitis, dry skin or sensitive skin. While you are using exederm you will not have to worry about using harmful chemicals on your skin. Exederm gently cleanses your skin and deeply moisturizes your skin. Exederm is a great product for babies, children and adults.

I received three products from Exederm for review. The first product that I was able to review was their Intensive Baby Moisturizer. This product comes in a round jar. This jar contains 4 oz. This cream is a gentle, non irritating and ultra hypoallergenic cream. This product is to help your child if they are suffering from dry irritating skin. This product has no harmful chemicals in this moisturizer. You can use this cream on your child once a day to help dry irritated skin. When I tried this cream I noticed that it is fragrance free and very thick. When I tried to rub a small amount of this cream on my arm where some dry skin was, it seemed to absorb in my skin quite quickly. After rubbing the cream into my skin I noticed that this cream did not leave a greasy feeling afterwards. It also seem to help the irritated skin. 

The next product that I was able to review was the exederm flare control cream. This cream comes in 2 oz tube. This product is color free, lanolin free, parabens free, fragrance free and formaldehyde free. This is great to know that I am not putting any harmful chemicals on my child skin. This product is good to help get relief from irritated skin. If you are suffering from eczema, rashes, hives or ect. than this product may help temporary stop the irritation.  You can use this product 2-3 times a day on the irritated area. You wan to apply a small amount on the effected area. This product works great for eczema. My daughter has been breaking out in rashes and nothing seemed to help. When I tried this product it seemed to give her some relief which was nice. 

The last product that I was able to review was exederm non irritating baby shampoo. This shampoo comes in a 8 fl bottle This product is gentle and non irritating. Which is great. My daughter has been having problems with the other shampoos that we have been using. Other shampoos lately have been breaking her out in rashes and causing irritation of the eyes. When I used exederm baby shampoo it was amazing. It just did not get my daughters hair clean it also was not a battle washing her hair. I actually could wash her hair without a fight and it also seem like if this product did get in her eyes it did not bother here.

Mixie Baby Bottle Review

To all the new moms out there and mothers who have babies that are using a bottle, than I found the perfect bottle for your baby. Mixie Baby Bottle are very interesting to me and very easy to use. If you are a busy mom that is always on the go than these bottles would be perfect for you. Mixie Baby Bottles are for formula feeding. The concept of the bottle is that it can be filled in advanced and mixed before the babies feeding time. This would be great for mothers that have busy schedules during the day, out running errands, or during the night. During the night it would help eliminate a lot of time when you have a hungry baby. It cuts a lot of time off, so you can go back to sleep soon.

If you were wondering Mixie bottles are free of BPA, phthalates, PVC. Which is great to know. When I tried to prepare this bottle it was very easy and fast. All you had to do is scoop powder into the Mixie formula compartment and tap gently on a hard surface to settle the power. Than press the lid on to seal an your good to go. The compartment on the bottom is where the formula goes and than you add the water in the top of the bottle. This keeps the formula and the water separated, so it keep it as fresh until it is time for baby to be fed. When baby needs to be fed it is very easy to mix to make a bottle. Push the button on the bottom of the bottle to release the formula than you shake. How easy is that? I wish I had this bottle when I was on the go. It would have saved me a lot of time. You can get Mixie in 4 or 8 oz bottles. You can find Mixie Bottle at their website here.

Uber Mom The Wipebox Review and Giveaway

I know as a mother out there that it is a pain to carry a huge diaper bag around all the time. There are times when I go out I just put a couple diapers in my purse and call it good. There is only one problem though. How do I transport the wipes? I can take the whole package but it will not fit my purse and it is a pain. Well When I was introduced to Uber Mom The Wipebox I fell in love.

I received one of Uber Mom Wipebox for review. I received a green wipebox with a football on top of the wipebox. Uber Mom has a wide variety of wipebox for each mom out there. They come in different colors and different patters on top. The wipebox is a designer travel wipe container that can be used for any kind of bag. Such as diaper, purse, hand bags, school bags, ect. The measurements of this wipebox are 8.250L x 4.250W x1 H. I love this wipebox because it is very cute and you can take it just about everywhere you go. It is small where I can put it in my handbag and go out. Also it does not look like a wipe package and looks classy while you are out. It snaps open and shut very easily, so while changing your baby you will not have to fuss for very long. I also like how you can take these out to the beach where ever you may go and they come in fun designs. You can find these wipebox's at your local Burlington Coat Factory to purchase.

You will be able to win one Uber Mom Wipe box Below.

Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Perfect Machine Review

 If you are an expectant mom or have a baby at home already. I have the perfect product for you to have at home. Tommee Tippee has recently came out with a new product called Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Perfect Prep Machine. As a mother I know how important it is when you are feeding your child. I did not realize when I became a mom on how important and how many factors come into play during a babies feeding time. I know a lot of moms out there breastfeed out there and that is the best way to go. Although if you were me I was not able to breastfeed after I had my children due to complications. I had to bottle feed with formula. My experience with bottle feeding can be frustrating at night. When your child wakes up they want to eat NOW no if and or buts. Also it seems to take forever to get that right premature for that bottle. 

Well Tommee Tippiee's new product will make parents life much easier with their new Perfect Prep Machine. This machine will help parents at night with preparing the bottle. This machine will make a fresh bottle at just the right serving temperature in less than two minutes. Can you believe that? This machine is very easy to use, it quick and accurate. This product provides the right amount of measurements for the bottle and the right amount of water. It will heat the bottle to the correct temperature to 98.6 within two minutes. I was excited when I opened this box when I received it. I received two Tommee Tippee bottles and the machine. When I took the machine out it look very easy to use. The instructions were simple and easy to read. What I like about this product is that you can use just about any size bottle you would like with this machine. You can lover the top to where ever you need to put the machine. If you were wondering you can use any bottle it does not have to be Tommee Tippee Bottles. 

When I tried this machine I fell in love with it and wish I had this when my daughter was a baby. This well help those sleepless nights. What you do is put the water right into the tank of the machine. After that the water will run through the built in filter this machine has. Then the filter will take anything that is not supposed to be there out of the water. Than after that you will use the dial to pick out which bottle you are using for your baby. The bottle sizes range from 4 oz to 11 oz. Afret this step you are ready to hit start on the machine. This will make the water warm enough to kill the bacteria they may enter the bottle. After adding the formula to the bottle and shaking it to dissolve the formula put it back on the machine.  Than the rest of the water will be added at body temperature. 

I really like this product and would highly recommend it new mothers or mothers who have a child that is still taking a bottle. You can find this product at Babies 'R Us or Amazon.
