Goody Good Stuff Review and Giveaway


 I got to review Good Good Stuff. I got to sample the flavors and my children got to sample them also. Goody Good Stuff is a new all new natural gummy candy. This candy is made with a plant derived bio-gum technology, which eliminates the need for animal based gelatin. Which majority of our gummy bears are based from. These candies are fat free, meat free, dairy free, alcohol free, gluten free, egg free, nut free, soy free, wheat free, gelatine free. They come in variety of flavors and some of them are unique flavors.


The flavors are Strawberry Cream,  Cheery Cherries, Tropical Fruit, Koala, Cola Freeze, Summer Peaches, Sour Mix and Match and Sour Fruit Salad.

I would say for me that I liked several of the flavors. I enjoyed the flavors Strawberry Cream, Cheery cherries, Summer Peaches. I thought the most interesting flavor was the Cola Freeze. My least Flavor was the Sour Fruit Salad. I think that I would of like the sour candies when I was younger I do not do well with the sour flavors anymore. They are unique candies and when you try them for the first time do not try to compare them to other gummies because they will not taste the same and you may be disappointed. I went with and open mind and they where quite good. I would not buy them for my self but I would definitely buy them for my children.

My 2 and 4 year old where fighting over every package. They seemed to enjoy all the flavors and did not seem to not like a certain package. They ate all of the package in less then a week. They said they really liked them and I was happy. I know that is good for my son because he is not really a candy or gummie kind of kid. He enjoyed the Strawberry Cream the most and he also enjoyed the Cola Breeze.

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.

Real Kids Shades Review and Giveaway


When you buy your kids sunglasses do you know what your are actually buying. I have learned a lot when I came across this site Real Kids Shades. When you buy sunglasses for your little ones a lot of us do not realize they do not really protect our children's eyes.  That is not good at all because we take this for granted. We do not realize or we tend to forget that sunlight can permanently damage your children's eyes. As parents we are not aware of that children's eyes are increased risk for permanent eye damage and we can not treat nor fix this issue. A lot of parents do not know this that is why we need to get the word out so we can protect our children and make sure they are covered.

 When this happens we can not fix this problem so we need to take charge  and fix the issue before it arises. This is very serious because this can lead into more trouble down the road for example eye disease and even can lead to blindness. Parents do we really want that for our children? We can prevent this so let prevent it and take the extra step to do so.

I really like this site because I learned so much information and how to protect my children's eyes at Real Kids Shades. This site is a great resource and they make it their mission to protect our children's eyes. Which I think we should owe them a huge thank you.




My children love their new pairs of shades. They have to take them everywhere and every time we go outside. I know that I leave a pair in the car now just in case we go somewhere and we need them. I know that I am going to provide the care for their eyes that they need. You can see they are a great fit on kids and very cute. I would highly recommend to go to their site and find out more information on their site to know how to protect your children's eyes. http://realkidshades.com. a Rafflecopter giveaway

Original Sprout Review and Giveaway

Another great company that I wanted to share with you during Emmy's Deals Blog Anniversary Bash is Original Sprout. Original Sprout is one of my favorite company's out there. They carry a wide variety of bath products out there. Here is a little background on Original Sprout. Inga Tritt is the found founder of Original Sprout, The Original Little Sprout and Di'organiques Original Sprout. The name Sprout was inspired by the birth of her daughter. When her daughter was born she wanted to use the safest bath products for her daughters hair. She did not have great luck and that these products that she was using did not help her daughter sensitive skin or her daughters hair. That is when she came out with her line of products called Original Sprout.
I received three products to review. The first product that I received was Original Sprout Island Bliss Shampoo. This comes in a 8 fl oz tube. This shampoo is great for thicker and fuller hair. This shampoo does not have any parabens, nanoparticles lavender, tea tree, petroleum oils musk, propylene glycol, sulfates gluten, soy or dairy. This product is 100 percent vegan. When I tried this shampoo it has the scent of tropical beach and has a hint of coconuts. I really love the smell of the beach, so naturally I like the scent. The scent to this shampoo is not overpowering and just right. This shampoo can be used for all hair types and used for daily use. When I tried a small amount it lathered quite well in my hair. It also washed out very well leaving my hair with a nice scent. I really like this product and would recommend it.
Than I received Original Sprout Luscious Island Conditioner. I love when shampoo have the matching conditioner. The reason why I say that is I hate when you try to mix different scents and then they tend to clash This conditioner also comes n a 8 fl oz tube. It also free and clean from any harmful chemicals. It is also 100 percent vegan. When I tried this product it was a nice creamy conditioner. It went smoothly in my hair. I left it in for several minutes and washed it out. I really liked this conditioner and left my hair nice and not the feel of greasy oily hair afterwards. Which is great. 
 The last product I reviewed is their Original Sprout Face and Body SPF 27 sunscreen. One lucky reader will be able to win one Original Sprout and Body Spf This comes in a 3 fl oz bottle. This product is for daily protection. It is natural, organic and 100 percent vegan. This is face and body sunscreen. You can use this product for daily use alone or under make up. This sunscreen does not have a fragrance to it and does not have that weird sunscreen smell to it. This can be used has a moisturizer for dry sin. This product can help clear acne. If by chance you get this product in your eyes it is gentle and will not burn your eyes like other products. This product is creamy and absorbs in skin very well. It does not leave a greasy feeling after applying the sunscreen.
 
Original Sprout does carry other products for adults and children. I have tried their children products and love using them on my daughter. I would highly recommend in checking out their products on their website.

Mixie Baby Bottle Review

Mixie BottleTo 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.
