Eco Nuts Review and Giveaway by Jen!

Have you heard of soap nuts yet? These amazing little nuts are actually berries that grow in the Himalayas that naturally produces a soap. They are all-natural, safe and gentle, yet still clean clothes just as good (if not better) than all of those chemical laundry detergents out there.

Jen at Pin-n-Tell had the chance to review Eco Nut's Soap Nuts. Check out her review to learn more about how they worked on her laundry and cloth diapers! Also, be sure to check out Eco Nut's brand new article library on their site. It has lots of soap nut info as well as regular laundry references. The coolest thing is that each article link is a pinnable square so get pinning on Pinterest!

Greek Yogurt Yumminess, Chobani Champions Review and Giveaway! US Ends 2/28

 Disclosure: I received Chobani Champions product(s) and information to facilitate and host this review. I received no other compensation for this post and was under no obligation to post a positive review. The opinions contained within, are my own and reflect my experience with the product(s). Your own may be different.

When I was a kid I was guilty of enjoying kiddie yogurts just like every other kid I knew, siblings included; it tasted delicious, it was fun colors and there was always a new yogurt trend going around. Trix Yogurt with their multi-colored flavors, Go-gurt came in long tubes that could grabbed out of either the fridge or freezer and eaten on the go-what kid could]resist such tempting treats?

Fast forward some 15 years or so and the Yogurt industry has boomed; I stand in front of the Yogurt section in the grocery store for forever trying to decide between the many different types offered these days. To make matters worse I have a Toddler that I have to keep in mind when buying ANYTHING so just grabbing any old brand/flavor is absolutely out of the question.

Trix Yogurt by General Mills=High Fructose Corn Syrup.
Dannon or Danimals Yogurt=Red Dye 40

Those are just two of the Yogurts I grew up eating and both contain ingredients we here in our home try to avoid EVER giving our Sophie; we can safely count them out of the possible choices available.

It seemed like forever before I found a Yogurt I not only felt comfortable and guilt-free about eating myself but could also feed our little one but eventually it was suggested I try Greek.

What did I have to lose?

Oikos, Liberte, Chobani-I soon loved each equally but the real love affair started when I began my correspondence with Chobani about their kids yogurt, Chobani Champions.

Chobani Champions is the FIRST Greek Yogurt to be available exclusively for Kids and is, in my expert Mom opinion, a delicious treat for any age.

This Kid-friendly Greek Yogurt comes in 4 flavors:

Very Berry
Vanilla Chocolate Chunk
Orange Vanilla
Banana Honey

and I found myself lucky enough to be sent ALL of them for review by the awesome folks at Chobani!

It came as no surprise when Sophie ate it up, cup by cup and admittedly so did the rest of my Yogurt loving family. Score another one for Chobani!

These tasty Yogurt cups come in the perfect size for little ones and even for Adults who are looking to watch their portions but remind me of a Potato chip..its so hard to limit yourself to just one, especially when they come in such smooth, delicious flavors. Each flavor of this delicious Yogurt has just 110 calories so no matter if you eat one or heck, even two, you're still enjoying a pretty guilt-free treat!

My favorite or in other words: the flavor I'm guilty of eating one OR two of? I'm a Vanilla fan so I'm not ashamed to admit that the Orange Vanilla won my vote. Not too sweet and not too Orange-y, it was a perfect blend of the two and oh, so creamy.

Thank you, Chobani! i can add yet another fantastic product to my list of Mama-approved, Kid friendly foods that I can feel good about giving my Toddler. No artificial flavors, colors or filler ingredients-Another Home-run.

TummyCalm Pure&Natural Gas Relief Review and Giveaway! US ends 2/20

 Disclosure: I received Tummy Calm product(s) and information to facilitate and host this review. I received no other compensation for this post and was under no obligation to post a positive review. The opinions contained within, are my own and reflect my experience with the product(s). Your own may be different.

When Sophia was born back in 2011 I thought I had the easiest baby ever. She slept almost 24/7 unless SHE wanted to eat and never fussed unless she had a darn good reason.

For a brief time she did experience a little bit of gastrointestinal upset/Colic but it was short lived and sleepless nights were rare during the few short weeks we did see signs of the nasty condition. Again, I counted my blessings that I had such an easy, manageable baby instead of one who experienced every textbook problem known to man.

These days though, it seems like my luck has run out; we're constantly battling rashes, fevers brought on by teething, snotty noses and lately, upset tummies. We've tried eliminating different foods from our little Vegetarian's diet to narrow down what might be causing the upsets but to no avail; her poor tummy still suffers from the occasional upset.

While trying a combination of different medicines that claim to make my little right as rain, I was introduced to an All-Natural product called Tummy Calm and sent a sample of their TummyCalm Pure&Natural Gas Relief to try at home.

Tummy Calm is a homeopathic medicine for relief of digestive upset in children, including gas, bloating, hiccups, teething, and stomach upset; Tummy Calm is also FDA-regulated, safe, gentle & effective, and non-habit forming or addictive so no worries to all the Mama's battling the upsets.

I was surprised, when giving Sophie her first dose before bed, to find that she took it well instead of fighting with me like she'd done with the other medicines I'd tried; she usually screams and gags herself, spilling the entire dose and adding further frustration to an already tense situation. I was further shocked when TummyCalm even seemed to work better than the other medicines. We were able to sleep uninterupted through the entire night!

If you're one of those Mama's who are also looking for an all-natural gas relief for your little one(s) then I would definitely recommend Tummy Calm!

To find out more about Tummy Calm and other All Natural products from their company TJL Enterprises  you can visit them online.

BellaBundle Natural Skin Care for Mama's Review and Giveaway! US 2/17

 Disclosure: I received Bella Mama product(s) and information to facilitate and host this review. I received no other compensation for this post and was under no obligation to post a positive review. The opinions contained within, are my own and reflect my experience with the product(s). Your own may be different.


You don't have to be a veteran Mama to have a sense of how important it is to protect yourself and your sensitive skin; especially when there's precious cargo on board.

Bella Mama Natural Skin Care offers a variety of Natural Skin Care products that not only provide for the ingredient-conscious Mama's out there but also for the Mama who just plain likes her skin to be pampered. Products offered by this wonderful company include everything an expecting Mama deserves, including Gift Baskets, Belly Butter for your ever expanding Belly, Foot Salts for those poor achy feet and more!

I had the pleasure to work with Bella Mama recently and was sent their BellaBundle to review for myself!

The BellaBundle includes everything you or your fellow Mama-to-be needs to feel beautiful and refreshed during their pregnancy; two things we ladies long for most when we're expecting. It includes a Face and Body Spritzer, Belly Oil, Foot Salts and Belly Butter.

Out of each of the 4 products I was sent in the BellaBundle, the Foot Salts have proven to be my absolute favorite.

I've used them several times in the last few weeks; after a trip to the grocery store, a walk around the block and even once after a particularly long dish-washing session. As sensitive as my skin has been during this pregnancy, my feet have been even more so and the Foot Salts do wonders to soothe my tender, achy feet.

I definitely recommend Bella Mama products to my fellow Mommies and expectant Mama's. Each product is all natural and 100% safe for anytime usage, whether pregnant or not and there are no smelly odors or greasy residue like most other skin care products on the market.

To find out more about Bella Mama and their exceptional line of Natural, affordable Skin Care products visit them online at www.bellamama.com

To stay up-to-date with all the latest Bella Mama happenings you can become a Facebook or Twitter follower!
