The intro almost says enough right there. But let me tell you there are no words to quite describe - you just have to try Sea Chi products to truly understand.

First of all the packaging - you can choose glass or plastic which I really appreciate. And the bottles are beautiful. The pictures don't capture the twinkle and shine - almost whimsical. They look really wonderful in the bathroom.

I feel very lucky to have gotten to try the Leave On Moisturizing Treatment & Hair Growth Formula & the Travelers' Package.

Let me tell you the hair treatment is out of this world. My hair is loving this stuff! Meant to stimulate blood circulation which has been known to promote hair growth. The creator of Sea Chi personally grew two inches of hair in two months using it. My hair feels smooth and strong, fuller even. Not the soft soft feeling of conditioner, but healthy soft. I love it!

And the Travelers Package is giving me a sample of everything. I've tried a bit of it all and what I can say from only a small use is that it feels clean and pure - high quality. The scents are natural and the products all perform well. I'm going to pack it in my hospital bag for when I deliver.

Sea Chi is kombucha based skin and hair products. Kombucha tea Contains beneficial organic acids: Acetic acid ~ Acts as a natural preservative and inhibits growth of harmful organisms. Gluconic acid ~ A building block for connective cell tissue. A by-product of Gluconic acid is collagen, the structure associated with cartilage. Collagen and the fluids which lubricate the joints, reduce wrinkles and provide relief to arthritis sufferers. Helps balance skin tone. Oxalic acid ~ A natural preservative and enhances vitality.

I used to brew and drink kombucha tea as a general wellness drink but have fallen away from it. I think in using Sea Chi I have been inspired to start up again. Maybe just a couple ounces a day since I'll be breast feeding.

About the founder and owner - I found it very inspirational:

Sea Chi Organics is a product of my imagination. By following my daily intuition this was created, it was not planned for. Up until this point in my life I did not know what I "should" be doing with my time. I was a good employee, supporting others' dreams. I thought they knew what was best for me. Having this awareness was enough to keep me motivated to find out what my life was about.

I was told that in order to live my purpose I must simply be who I am and follow my God given thoughts with action. My "real" life then began to take shape. It was easy, just be yourself and follow through. The journey is so fun!!! I am no longer afraid. I have so much faith in the process of my life knowing that through this fabulous experience called life, I have been given a vehicle by which I am able to better care for myself and with plenty to spare and to share with others. My ideas are abundant, this is merely the beginning. I gratefully learn from all my experiences, for I know that they lead me to a higher level of understanding and "livingness." I say to you who feel lost, trust yourself. You've already been given all that you need to live the life you choose, if you believe in yourself.

The lotus flower is the flower of enlightenment. Its roots start off in the mud and it grows up through the water towards the sunlight. Enlightenment can be achieved from the muddiest of beginnings; it is the route you take and the goal you reach that matters, not where you started from. I chose this as my logo in honor of my own life. I am grateful.

Tropical Traditions ~ Mint Massage Oil ~ GIVEAWAY!!! ~ Ends 7/17

Tropical Traditions massage oils are a unique combination of oils and esters that are not processed with high heat or solvents that have been developed by a professional massage therapist. These oils provide superior glide yet work well for massage. They are made from our own organic Virgin Coconut Oil and Virgin Palm Oil, and include organic jojoba oil. No other products on the market are made with finer oils as their base. Tropical Traditions Virgin Coconut Oil is traditionally made from fresh organic coconuts, and independent laboratory tests show that it has a higher level of antioxidants than other coconut oils.

Virgin Palm Oil contains high concentrations of a powerful form of Vitamin E called “tocotrienols” which published research has shown is 40–60 times more potent than alpha-tocopherol (the most common form of Vitamin E found as an additive in most skin care products.) In addition to these powerful Vitamin E tocotrienols, Virgin Palm Oil is also rich in natural carotenes. It is one of the richest natural plant sources of carotenes with concentrations of 500–700 ppm. It is 15 times more retinol-equivalent than carrots and 300 times more than tomatoes, for example.

Tropical Traditions only use high quality organic essential oils which are distilled with low temperature and low pressure over an extended period of time. Low temperature and lower pressure have proven to be the most effective method of obtaining all of the essential constituents from the plant, and provide our products with the very best quality fragrances available. These premium essential oils are imported directly from the manufacturer in France.

My sister is currently schooling for massage therapy & natural healing. When I discovered that Tropical Traditions carried massage oils, I knew I had to try them out. I am always so impressed by the quality and healthfulness of Tropical Traditions products, I knew the massage oils would provide the same quality and healthfulness I've come to expect. My sister only uses natural products and I wanted to introduce her to TT - knowing she'd be hooked.

By reviewing the massage oils, I'm getting wonderful massages from her!! This is giving her practice and me some much needed therapeutic massage.

This time we used the Mint Massage oil. The mint was stimulating and refreshing. I'm mean don't get me wrong, I was super relaxed, I could have stayed in bed and forgotten about the world. Zonked out! But in the heat of the Summer the mint was cooling.

My sister is totally impressed with the Tropical Traditions massage oil . She has always used one brand and says she might be ordering some to use for herself :)

BUY IT:

You can buy Tropical Traditions massage oil online at Tropical Traditions http://www.tropicaltraditions.com//organic_massage_oils.htm

WIN IT!!!

One lucky winner will receive a 8 oz. Mint Massage Oil from Tropical Traditions . You'll notice this giveaway is running SUPER long. I'm going on a week long vacation and so I'll let it run while I'm gone and will draw when I get back.

Planet Wise ~ Hanging Wet/Dry Bag ~ GIVEAWAY!!! ~ Ends 7/17

Another great addition to the growing PATENT PENDING Planet Wise product line! Finally a solution where one bag can carry your wet and dry items at the same time while keeping them separate. Each bag is sewn and sealed for no wicking or leaking plus an added zippered dry pocket on the front including two handles so it can be easily hung on a doorknob and/or carried!


Great for when you are traveling for the weekend or if you don't want a traditional diaper pail. Both your clean or dirty diapers, towels, clothes, etc can be carried in the same bag. The clean or dry items in the front "dry" zippered pocket and the dirty or wet items in the zippered "wet" section keeping moisture and odors in.


Size: 16.5"x27" and holds approx. 20-24 cloth diapers

I got to try the Hanging Wet/Dry Bag like in the awesome Outer Space pattern like pictured right above. It's awesome - perfect. Depending on how often you wash, it could serve as your diaper pail. Our bathroom is smaller than I'd like and I was dreading the thought of keeping a full size diaper pail in there. I need all the space I can get. I've installed a hook and will hang the wet/dry bag in there instead. I think it will work out well.

Planet Wise carries a variety of sizes to choose from. I plan on purchasing a small diaper bag size for on the go.

I did my own test. I washed all my diapers , took them out and placed them in the bag dripping wet, hung the bag on the hook in the bathroom, went and got dinner started. Not a drop of wetness outside the bag. So I threw the whole bag in the wash and that was that! So easy & no mess!

BUY IT:

You can purchase Planet Wise products at this list of fine retailers

WIN IT!!!

One lucky winner will receive a hanging wet/dry bag from Planet Wise - winner's choice of print!
( Continental US Only ) You will notice this contest runs SUPER long - I'm going on a week vacation and so it will run until I get home. I figure since I won't be here to promote it, the extra time will be ok :)

Pipsqueaks Diapers~ Happy Heinys One Size ~ GIVEAWAY!!! ~ Ends 7/10

Pipsqueaks Diapers carries the major brands of cloth and hybrid diapers and baby carriers--and a few other items we think you might like. Pipsqueaks is a mother-owned online baby items and accessories store. If you see it for sale on this site, rest assured that we’ve tried it ourselves—and we liked it. More importantly, our babies liked it, too.

I am so excited to be working with Pipsqueaks not only because they offer a selection of trusted favorites, but because the owner is a Mama who by starting Pipsqueaks, is pursuing her dream to stay home with her babies. An English Professor by profession she hopes that one day her love of cloth diapering and baby wearing will allow her to stay her home with her 15 month old son and her new little she will be expecting in about seven months.

I love to be able to help promote Mamas. Please keep Pipsqueaks Diapers in mind for all your cloth diapering and baby wearing needs. It feels good to support another woman and mother :)

Pipsqueaks Diapers takes the clutter out of cloth diapering. Onsite info:

When we first started cloth diapering, we felt overwhelmed by the sheer number of manufacturers and products. Through trial and error, we have settled on three major brands (Bum Genius, Fuzzi Bunz, and Happy Heinys) and one small manufacturer (Snugglebums). Pipsqueaks Diapers will only carry these brands of cloth diapers. We seek to sell tried and trusted products and to take the clutter out of cloth diapering.

Many other retailers offer almost every brand of cloth diaper and baby carrier on the market. Pipsqueaks is different. We only carry products we can vouch for--ones we've tried ourselves. Additionally, most online cloth diaper retailers only carry diapers and accessories. Pipsqueaks recognizes that many parents who cloth diaper are not only environmentally conscious; they are also conscious of "alternative" baby raising practices. That's why we also stock carriers and slings.

Most prices for cloth diapers and accessories are set by the manufacturer. But, whenever possible, we pass savings onto our customers.

There is a very helpful section for those interested in clothdiapering. A great resource for those who want to learn more before investing. I know for me all the terms were confusing in the beginning. Now I feel comfortable with them. There is a list of all the terminology you'll need.


Today Pipsqueaks Diapers would like to feature the Happy Heinys One Size.





Happy Heinys One Size diapers are designed with the same quality of the Happy Heinys Pocket Diapers only they are made to fit baby from birth to potty training. Happy Heinys uses their own custom milled fleece and high quality products made right here in the USA. You will find on your one size diaper a total of 4 snaps on the front. This will give you a total of 4 different sizes for your diaper. This will allow the diaper to fit most babies from about 8 lbs - 35 lbs. An investment that will save you money throughout your diapering time.



Happy Heinys One Size diapers are available in many different colors and several adorable prints. The prints for the one size diapers are made out of the same high quality fabrics that the solids are made out of. These fabrics have been tested to last up to 12 hours at night for most babies. When you purchase a Happy Heinys One Size diaper you will receive 2 microfiber inserts (one small & one large). You may use 1 insert or both depending on how heavy your little one wets.

A big thank you to Pipsqueaks Diapers for offering a great selection, education, and for being an inspiration to us all!

BUY IT:

You can purchase Happy Heinys , Bum Genius , Fuzzi Bunz , and Snugglebums online at http://www.pipsqueaksdiapers.com

WIN IT!!!

Bottombummpers ~ All in One Side Snap ~ GIVEAWAY!!! ~ Ends 7/6

Bottombumpers offers the Hook and Loop Closure and the Side Snapping AIO. I was able to review the side snapping version - in Candy pink of course! I love a couple things about Bottombumpers - that never a tight band touches your baby's legs. The elastic is not banded like most diapers and offers the same hold without the same pressure - meaning no red band lines on little thighs. I also love that they come in sizes - the small is perfect for newborns. They dry fast too!

Bottombumpers Front Hook and Loop Closure - APLIX - Diapers are very trim and absorbent. Made with Durable 2mil Quality Knit Outer and lined in Certified Organic Cotton. Our soakers are 4 layers Organic Cotton and topped with Bamboo Velour. So that is a total of 6 layers of absorbency!!

Front Hook and Loop Diapers allow for quick diaper changes! Easy for babysitters, grandparents, and anyone not used to changing cloth diapers! With laundry tabs to help preserve the hook and loop for the longest wear possible!





Bottombumpers Side Snapping All in One Diaper is one of the trimmest, most absorbent diapers out there! Made with durable waterproof soft outer. They are lined with certified Organic Cotton.

Our soakers are 4 layers Organic Cotton and topped with Bamboo Velour. So that is a total of 6 layers of absorbency!! Side snapping diapers help you avoid front bulk of regular diapers! And our snap diapers look brand new wash after wash after wash!

Customer service was perfect as well - friendly and fast. There are a variety of colors to choose from and Bottombumpers also offers snap colors and embroidery options.

Need a washable pail liner? They offer 2mil Large Pail Liners also in a variety of colors.

Episencial ~ Sunny Sunscreen SPF 35 ~ GIVEAWAY!!! ~ Ends 7/1

Actively healthy skincare for babies, kids and planet

Sunny Sunscreen is water resistant protection for face & body - little faces and bodies that is!

Free from all the bad stuff like additives, parabens, and petroleum. With the goodness of Organic green tea, shea butter and zinc. The plastic container it comes in is BpA free & it is proudly manufactured in the USA by solar power.

Protecting ourselves from the harmful rays of the sun is important. Even more important is protecting the delicate skin of our babies and kids. Their skin is thinner and doesn't produce enough oil or natural sun protection. So proper skincare is essential when they're little.

Episencial is a feel good product. No junk - even the scent is provided by fruit juice - not perfume.

It's performance? We've only used the sunscreen once, this past weekend, and I only applied it once. It help up great and no sunburns. It did it's job and gave me piece of mind knowing that my child wasn't absorbing unhealthy chemicals into his skin.

That's all you can ask for in a product! Oh yeah and you can ask for the wonderful art of beloved Eric Carle to grace the packaging , and you'll get it with Episencial! The product line shares with us the Very Hungry Caterpillar. Perfect for the sunscreen, we get the happy sun from the story.

The super cool part of the packaging for us was Julien asking me where that sun was from - he recognized it. Later that evening we dug the book out and read it together. We probably hadn't read it for a few years! It was fun and meant something different to him at this age.

BUY IT:

You can purchase Sunny Sunscreen and the entire line of Episencial skincare products at http://episencial.com/shop-now/ and at a variety of online retailers. You can also now purchase at Target.

WIN IT!!!

One lucky winner will receive a 4oz tube of Episencial Sunny Sunscreen

LapDawg ~ Laptop Desk ~ GIVEAWAY!!! ~ Ends 6/30

“The LapDawg X4 is a rare breed of gadget. You'll never know how useful it is until you own one.” - DigitalTrends.com

It's true, until you have one, you don't know what you're missing. Once it was put together, it was fun seeing what it could do. It accommodates nearly every angle you might ever need. No more awkward positions trying to use your laptop in bed or on the couch!

I was surprised by it's durability. It can bear some weight and you can tell just from using it briefly that you don't have to worry about leaning on it a little. I even saw a picture of a LapDawg with someone who had fallen asleep on it with their head on their arms. It's that sturdy.

It's also designed to deflect heat - the materials feel cool to the touch even when you've been stationed for awhile.

What stands out most to me - why this product is worth it - it's so transformable that you'll never get a stiff neck, hurting back, or a fallen asleep limb. You just position the laptop desk to whatever position you are in. It's comfortable!

I also like that you can use it for whatever you're doing - eating lunch, lying down in bed, writing a letter, kids drawing, reading. It's great, so multi functional!

Kicky Pants ~ natural baby clothing in bamboo and cotton prints, AutoMobile,maternity wear,soft and cozy toys~ REVIEW

Kicky Pants apparel is convenient for Mom, comfy for children, and offers a playful, charming style.

The Bamboo Basics are soft and luxurious feeling. Bamboo is eco-friendly and sustainable and grows wild without the aid of fertilizers or pesticides. Bamboo fabric is naturally antibacterial, anti fungal, and antistatic. Bamboo absorbs moisture 3-4 times better than cotton, keeping skin comfortable not sticky in the Summer and bamboo stays a few degrees cooler in warm weather and warmer in cold weather.

I got the opportunity to review a sweet little bamboo dress. It's light and airy - perfect for Summertime. Classic little girl and a feel good product.

Kicky Pants has a big celebrity following & has been featured on many shows, magazines and online spots.

You can check them out online at http://www.kickypants.com , follow them @KickyPantsInc at Twitter, and like them @ Kicky Pants at Facebook.
