Glow in the Dark Pacifier Clips





This is a set of 3 pacifier clips plus 3 adaptors for newborn pacifiers (the ones with the nubs instead of the rings). The pacifier clips have a nice woven ribbon with cute designs. These include owls and flowers with stripes on the back, chickens and hearts with zigzags on the back, and giraffes and butterflies with flowers on the back. The ribbons are not rough or stiff and you can't tell they are glow in the dark until the lights are off.

All of them actually glow in the dark when the light is off. This means you will be able to find them in the middle of the night if needed. At one end of the ribbons is a plastic alligator clip. They work well enough: they are not as strong as the metal ones, but they are safer. The other end has a string loop for attaching a pacifier, teether, or other toy. These are great for keeping baby's things within arms reach and off of the ground. I received this item for free in exchange for my honest review. #GlowPacifierClip

Bamboo Nursing Pads





This is a really nice set of bamboo nursing pads. The set includes 6 pads and a mesh washing bag. The pads are pink on one side and a soft off white fuzzy bamboo fabric on the other side. They are really absorbent and super soft on your skin. The pads are heart shaped so that there will be fewer creases when wearing them than with traditional round pads. These fit well into most bras and will provide you plenty of extra protection without being bulky or visible. The fabric and stitching seem to be well done and I didn't see any loose threads.

The washing bag is a nice white mesh with holes that are plenty large to let water/soap through. You can use this bag to make sure you don't loose any pads in the washer/dryer. The zipper seems durable. I received this item for free in exchange for my honest review. #BambooNursingPads

Pacifier Clips




This is a set of 4 adorable pacifier clips. There are different designs to choose from, but I got the ones that are called "boys ribbons" although I really think they are gender neutral. The designs include owls and American flags, red and blue diamonds, red and blue anchors, and anchors, stars, and sailboats. They are very cute.

The ribbon is thick and durable. It's ribbed and looks and feels nice. On one end is a thick elastic loop which you can attach to a pacifier, teether, or other toy. The other end has black plastic alligator clips to attach to baby's clothes, bib, or blanket. The whole thing looks durable and well made, but the clips could be a little stronger.

Natural Roll On Deodorant






I have both the spray bottle and the roll on bottle of this deodorant. I'm not sure why but the spray seems to work better even though it's the exact same thing. I think I'm not rolling on enough? If you put enough on, it works really well and you don't get smelly during the day.

This deodorant is pretty awesome. I got unscented and it has a slight scent like minerals when you first apply, but dries with no scent or color. It doesn't leave color on your clothes either. It feels wet when you first apply and that's really the only thing I don't like about it. It doesn't itch or burn even when I've just shaved. And magnesium is good for you anyway. I received this item at a discounted rate in exchange for my honest review. #BestNaturalDeodorant

Butt Donut




This is a "standard" sized 15 inch blow up butt donut. It's blue in color and has a soft fabric on the outside. The donut is able to be blown up by mouth, but also includes an even easier pump. It folds up and stores small for when you don't need it. It can hold up to 330 lbs and is also machine washable! There's a valve or something in the air hole that keeps air from coming out when you don't have it blocked. This is nice when you're blowing it up, but kind of annoying when trying to deflate it as you have to pinch is just right to get the air to come back out.

I like that you blow the donut up yourself because it means you can control how soft or firm it is. It's just the right size and shape to sit on while keeping pressure off of your sore areas. It's perfect for hemorrhoids, childbirth, and tailbone pain etc. It is a little wobbly to get used to sitting on at first, but it's really easy and such as relief.

Welch's Juice Drink

Welch's Refreshingly Simple 


 

Welch's came up with a more natural juice drink. If you like juice drinks, this one has simple ingredients like juice, water, sugar, etc. If you are a 100% juice kind of person, this drink only has 15% juice, so be aware. I tried the peach mango flavor. It tasted like very sugary peach drink. I watered it down and it was better. I received this item for free in exchange for my honest review.

Natural Deodorant




For years I've been squeamish about using deodorant because of the harmful chemicals. Fortunately, I don't sweat or stink much, but I do on occasion and that bothers me. Recently, I'd been using deodorant every other day to make sure I wasn't stinky. I was super excited to try this deodorant and I'm pleased with the results.

It's easy to use: you just spray 3-4 sprays on your armpit and let dry. It is definitely wet at first but dries quickly. I didn't have any of the itching they mentioned and it didn't sting for me, even after shaving. When wet, the spray does have a slight scent, perhaps from the aloe and witch hazel. But, once it's dry, there is no scent (I ordered the unscented one).

Throughout the day, I have noticed a little sweating happening, but no odor. At the end of the day, there is still no odor in my armpits, so that's great! The magnesium does leave a little bit of a residue on my skin, but you can't see it, you can just feel it a little. It's not uncomfortable, it's just there. There is no color on my skin or clothes from the deodorant. I received this item at a discounted rate in exchange for my honest review. #BestNaturalDeodorant
