All in One Baby Accessory ~ BabyGiraffe Review

bottleholder

What is the BabyGiraffe?

       “A convenient companion to hold toys, bottles, sunshades & other necessities.

       With a fully flexible spine for the most natural and versatile positioning.

       That securely attaches to almost any high chair, car seat, stroller or crib.”

image

To help you care for—and engage—babies of all ages.

I love the BabyGiraffe!  It is a very bendable arm that comes with 4 clip on accessories: a bottle holder, a toy loop, a safety mirror, & a sunshade.  The arm is very bendable while still being sturdy so you can position it any way you need.  It is easy to clip onto carseats, strollers, cribs, highchairs or anywhere else you can think of.  You simply squeeze and it opens.

The accessories are easy to change out they simply clip on and off.  I love that there are so many uses for the BabyGiraffe.  It is like having 4 different products all wrapped into one fun bendy arm!  The BabyGiraffe is a must have baby accessory and I highly recommend it to parents everywhere!

Baby Einstein Music & Discovery Travel Mirror Review

“The journey of baby‐self discovery continues on the go – made easy with adjustable straps for vehicle headrest attachment – with this playful mirror featuring dancing lights, charming characters and classical melodies.”

 mirror1  

I am expecting a new baby in June and I have been on the search for the mirror2perfect baby car mirror.  Once I saw the Baby Einstein Music & Discovery Travel Mirror I knew it was exactly what I wanted.  When it arrived I was pleasantly surprised at how cute it is.  The colors are so bright and vibrant.

It has four play modes:

  • Discovery mode Introduces baby to colors and
    shapes in 3 languages
  • Lights and melodies
  • Melodies
  • Lights only

The fun songs and lights are really fun for baby. I like that it is a large sized mirror4mirror so you can see your baby well while in the car.  It has a sun dial timer on top that you can set for 10, 20, 30 or 60 minutes. Perfect for keeping baby entertained on any car ride.  Once you decide how long you want it to play for you just push the sun and it starts.  With the different settings you can find what’s perfect for you, baby and everyone in the car. There are 2 volume levels to choose from (low & high) and you can turn it off altogether as well.  You can also use this as a baby crib mirror

This is a great mirror that your baby will learn from and enjoy very much!mirror3

This Travel Mirror is available online and in stores now.

JJ Cole Collections Car Seat Canopy Review and Giveaway

cover2

“Stylishly protect your baby from the elements! The canopy’s front closure releases, allowing you to put baby in the car seat without having to remove product.”-JJ Cole Collections

 IMAG1404  

I love the JJ Cole Collections Car Seat Canopy.  When Bug was born 4 years ago I used to just throw a blanket over the top of his infant seat when we went out.  Well that never worked as the blanket would fall and it made it awkward to carry.  This infant car seat cover straps onto the handle of the car seat with velcro straps so it is not in the way of the handle while carrying.  The elastic around the whole bottom gives it a snug fit on the car seat so it will stay on well.

I really like that it is a lightweight and breathable fabric so baby gets airflow even when it is shut. 

I think having your baby covered (especially in the early months) is really important.  Not only to protect them from the elements but also from strangers who like to touch. Keeping them away from germs as well.

It has velcro closures along the front so you can undo them to check on baby as well as open it all the way to get baby in and out.  I love that you don’t have to remove the cover to do that.

Things that are Brag Worthy:

  • adorable patterns available
  • lightweight, breathable fabric
  • elasticized outer band conforms to car seat for perfect fit
  • machine washable
  • keeps baby protected from the elements as well as nosy strangers

Zooper Tango Double Stroller Review and Giveaway ($499 Value!)

 

zooper1

I LOVE my new Zooper Tango Double Stroller!  It is a high quality stroller with fabulous features!  Watch my video review below to see how it functions and what I love about it:

 image

As you can see it is a GREAT stroller with many features to make your trip out and about with kids easy and comfortable.  It provides a very smooth ride thanks to the four independent wheel suspensions.  Your child can easily stay asleep while riding even when going over bumps.  You can push and turn this stroller with just one hand.  It turns on a dime and is effortless!

IMAG1353IMAG1361

IMAG1343

 

 

Each seat has it’s own individual recline and can be reclined to 4 different positions.  When reclined fully your child is laying in a flat position perfect for little ones who need to take naps while you are out and about.

One hand recline makes it very easy to recline and adjust the backrest.

image 

It has 2 separate canopy’s for each seat.  You can see the canopy’s full coverage in the images below: upright seat position (left) reclined position (right).

IMAG1348IMAG1344

IMAG1347

 

 

 

There is also an infant safety enclosure net on each canopy.  It provides security for your baby.  You can also unzip it (as shown) for air flow to your child or to check on them.

 

 

 

It comes with 2 infant head rest inserts (shown on the left) and has a 5 point harness system which is easy for an adult to buckle and un-buckle (not easy for a child).

IMAG1351

It also comes with 2 additional arm rest bars providing more leg room for older children.  All armrests are removable and are extremely easy to remove and reconnect.

IMAG1376

Large utility basket underneath can hold a large diaper bag as well as other items and bags.  Great for holding everything you need on your day out.

IMAG1340

  Zipper provides side access to the storage basket.  This is great because if both children are fully reclined you won’t be able to access the basket from the back.  With this feature you will still have access to cargo underneath.

IMAG1355

Both canopy’s have a large storage pocket as well as a smaller pocket with a flap closure. Great for storing pacifiers, wipes, cell phones, car keys, toys, etc…IMAG1373

It also has a removable cup holder on the side for holding baby bottles, water bottles, and or sippy cups.

IMAG1341

 

It also comes with a sun shade and foot muff accessory. Sun shade provides shade from the sun while still allowing your children to see the environment around them.  The foot muff covers both children and protects from the wind and rain (is water resistant).  Both are easy to put on and take off.  IMAG1371IMAG1368

The Tango is easy to open and to fold.  Once folded it stands on it’s own.  Folded it measures 42” x 30” x 14”.

IMAG1364IMAG1365

It comes with one infant car seat fastening belt which secures your infant car seat to the stroller.zooperinfant

I love the Zooper Tango side by side double stroller and highly recommend it!

Far End Gear Single Earbud & BuDLoKs Review and Giveaway [CLOSED]

 

inearwmic

If you have been looking for running earphones, or earphones for any physical activity look no further.  I have found the perfect product for anyone who is active outside and loves to listen to music.  My hubby rides his road bike regularly and loves to listen to music as he does.  For safety he leaves one ear open (as you should) so he only uses one side of his headphones.  It always annoyed him that the sound quality was never right since standard headphones are made to use both sides he didn’t get the full effect of the music.  Also, it annoyed him to have to tuck in the other headphone to get it out of the way. He needed a single earphone to solve his problems.  Then I was introduced to

One Good Earbud:

“Designed for enjoying music or fielding mobile calls, our in-ear style earbud with in-line microphone can be worn comfortably in either ear for a secure, near-customized fit. Compatible with iPhone, LG, Blackberry, Motorola, and HTC smartphones, as well as all other mobile phones that accept a 4 conductor 3.5mm plug. image

Technical Specifications:

  • 4 Conductor Stereo 3.5mm right angle plug (same as 1/8-inch size plug)
  • Includes 3 sizes of rubber ear tips, to find your best fit
  • Sturdy metal housing provides top quality acoustics
  • Compatible with the iPhone, iPhone 3G/3GS/4, Blackberry, DROID, Palm, Samsung, Android, HTC, LG, Motorola, and other mobile phones that accept a 4 conductor 3.5mm plug, with microphone/button enabled features
  • Also works with audio devices such as Apple iPods, Sony MP3 Players, Laptops and Desktop Computers, as well as Sansa, Creative, Etek, Ativa, RCA and other low-cost MP3 players
  • Weighs in at 0.5 ounces (14 grams)
  • Stereo plug’s circuitry mixes both stereo channels (left and right) together into one earphone
  • 42 inch long cord”

The One Good Earbud is available in different styles: In ear, wrap around, iPod style, with or without a mic…For my hubby I got the In ear with Mic.  It is perfect for him since he likes to be able to answer his phone as he is riding, with the mic he is able to do just that.  The sound quality is great with this single earbud and he no longer has to worry about the other earphone getting in the way.  This earphone is great for any activity where awareness is needed as well as for use with his smartphone while driving, etc…This single earphone is also ideal for someone with a hearing impairment in one ear.

We were also sent BuDLoKs to review and I’m glad we were!

BuDLoKs:

“BuDLoKs replace the stock, in-ear budtips produced by other manufacturers. budloks-alone-blackglass6taThe soft silicone wing gently locks into the bowl of the wearer’s ear, comfortably locking it in place during general activity or vigorous exercise.
Try them with your favorite in-ear earbuds from Coby, SkunkJuice, JLab, GOgroove, Skullcandy, Beats by Dr. Dre, Monster, Klipsch, JVC, Thinksound, Sony, Sennheiser, Shure, Philips, and One Good Earbud to keep them from falling out.

Technical Specifications:

  • Comes with 3 sizes for a near-custom fit.
  • Easy to use.
  • Replaces the stock, in-ear budtips produced by other manufacturers.
  • Weighs in at 0.5 ounces
  • Soft silicone wing gently locks into the bowl of the wearer’s ear.
  • Comfortably locks earbuds in place during general activity or vigorous exercise” budloks-w-buds-blackglass3

BuDLoKs are a great way to ensure that your in ear headphones stay in your ear.  My hubby uses them with his in ear one good earbud while riding his bike and exercising and they work great.  He no longer has to worry about his earphone falling out while he is active.  They provide a really nice snug fit and since they come in a pack with 3 different sizes he was able to find the best fit for him.  And it worked out that a different size fit my ears so even more bang for our buck!

I highly recommend both One Good Earbud and BuDLoKs to anyone with an active lifestyle! You can see more info and purchase at www.farendgear.com.

Baby Cargo 300 Series Ultra Lightweight Umbrella Stroller Review and Giveaway [CLOSED]

babycargo1

“Baby Cargo ultra lightweight strollers are made for traveling in your neighborhood and beyond!  All weigh under 16 pounds. Baby Cargo will appeal to parents that seek out modern baby gear that fit into their existing home and lifestyle.”-Baby Cargo image

“Imagine an ideal marriage of tailored design and thoughtful engineering and simplytaupe you have Baby Cargo’s 300 Series Stroller. We put fit and finish at the top of our wish list — embossed fabrics, custom colors and a sleek frame. But a few smart touches — a padded, multi-position seat, wipe-clean materials, a weather protective rain fly — make the ride a little smoother for baby, and mom and dad, too.”-Baby Cargo

As a mom, for me a lightweight umbrella stroller is a must have.  Whether it’s running errands, shopping, or going to the park, I like having a compact stroller in my trunk at the ready.  I love the Baby Cargo 300 Series stroller because it is a quality lightweight stroller that folds very compactly.  I was pleasantly surprised when I first folded it and saw just how compact it is.  I can easily keep it in my trunk and still have a ton of room to spare.

The lightweight aspect of it is heavenly.  Especially with me being pregnant right now.  I can easily lift it in and out of the trunk without risking hurting myself.  In fact this stroller weighs in at only 15.8 lbs!image

I am loving how easy it is to fold and unfold, as well as how easy the brakes are to use.  I can simply use my foot for all of these things.

The basket on the bottom isn’t very big, but I can fit a small or medium sized diaper bag in it.  There are also 2 pockets under there as well, perfect for water bottles, sippy cups, or baby bottles.  There is also a cup holder that comes with it that you can attach to the back of the stroller (up near the handles).

Probably my second favorite feature of this stroller is that it reclines.  A lot of umbrella strollers don’t have that option and this one reclines quite a bit. Definitely enough to allow your child to nap while you are out and about.  I also like that the canopy is nice and high allowing taller children to fit.  My 4 year old fits comfortably in this stroller with head space to spare.  Making it a great choice since you can use it from birth to 50 lbs.

We love playing games at our house and try to play as a family as much as we can.  So we get excited about new Hasbro game releases.  The most recent we got to test out is the new Simon Flash Game.  It has cubes (similar to Scrabble Flash) that you line up to play 4 different versions of the Simon game.  I’m a big Simon fan and have loved playing it since I was a kid.  So it has been a real blast playing 4 different versions of the game.  I love that it comes with a case to hold the tiles.  It is perfect for to use during the Simon classic game since it keeps all the tiles lined up and you can travel with it. It’s fun that you can play alone or with people. This is a great family game and the perfect last minute Christmas gift idea!

Brag Worthy Christmas ~ Picnic Fun Tailgater Picnic Set on Wheels for 4 Review

picnic1I have been wanting a great Picnic Tote for a few years now for traveling. We don’t take too many road trips or vacations, but when we do, I like to pack as much of our own food so we don’t have to spend so much money eating out. Now that we have the Picnic fun Tailgater Picnic Set on Wheels for 4, that is going to much easier to do.

pic

“The Picnic Fun website is the ideal location for anyone looking for the best picnic gear available. Here you can get the kinds of baskets, backpacks, and coolers that will keep plenty of food on hand, and in the best conditions possible. You can also find seating, beverage carriers and totes, blankets and mats, tables, portable grills, and so much more!”

I was so excited to choose something from Picnic Fun to review. I knew I wanted a Picnic Tote rather than a basket so that I could wedge it into the middle seat in our car (we like to have our food easily accessible while picnic2we are traveling Smile). I found a lot of different totes that I really loved but ultimately went with the Tailgater Picnic Set on Wheels for 4. It is black, insulated, and made out of sturdy material that will definitely last for years to come. I love that it has a telescopic handle that I can use to wheel into hotel rooms, picnic areas, and anywhere else we decide to go! It also comes with a detachable utensil carrier that includes everything we would need to have a complete meal on the go. I am excited to take this on our next road trip which is coming up very soon.

Picnic Fun has such a great selection of the best picnic gear. Here are only a few products you will find on their website: picnic

PICNIC BASKETS-There is something extra special about the look of a woven picnic basket, but there is also a tremendous amount of appeal to today’s modern durable fabric baskets too. Fortunately, our large array of picnic baskets makes it easy for anyone to find the perfect choice for their needs.

PICNIC TOTES-What is the difference between a picnic tote and a picnic basket? A lot of people get confused by the terminology, but anything described as totes and bags tends to mean that they are made from soft fabric, feature shoulder straps or handles, and utilize a barrel-like structure. They will never be made from the woven willow that a lot of picnic baskets feature as picnic3well.

INSULATED COOLERS-Have you ever tried to move a large cooler around on a beach? Have you struggled to move a full cooler while it sits on a grassy area? Traditional rigid coolers have to be much bulkier than seems necessary because of their insulation. They also tend to hold very little except the foods that need to be kept cold, and even then they might smash things together. This is the reason to checkout our incredible array of insulated coolers. They are designed to serve all of your picnicking needs, but they can also be used for a variety of other functions. For pic4example, we have personal lunch coolers that will easily transport your daily lunch or meal in a stylish manner, but which will also keep foods at optimal temperatures too. These have exterior pockets that can hold cutlery, napkins, and the foods that don’t need to be contained within the cooler.

Not only does Picnic Fun have everything you need to pack your picnic, they have a great selection of accessories to really make your outing special. I was especially impressed with their picnic tables that actually fold up!! We could definitely use one of those. They also carry portable grills, picnic mats and blankets, picnic chairs, picnic backpacks and more!

Things that are BRAG WORTHY:

  • Huge selection
  • Something in every price range
  • Something to suit every need—from the occasional ‘picnic goer, to theChristmasGift2011 die hard tailgater!
  • Find the best picnic gear all in one place
  • Makes a great gift for the family who loves taking outings!

Brag Worthy Christmas ~ Think Geek Video Swim Mask Review

video_swim_mask_man
The seaweed is always greener

 

“Little did you know, all the underwater scenes in The Little Mermaid were filmed using Video Swim Masks. (You see, the local Merpeople Videographers Union 42 refused to work the project, so humans had to be used.) The scuba diver crewmen couldn’t handle all their gear and their video cameras, so the great Mouse himself outfitted them with these stylin’ yellow masks and told them to go forth and shoot all of the magic that happens under the sea.video_swim_mask Take it from us, darling, it’s better down where it’s wetter and you’d better be wearing the mask that lets you capture video of the fishes dancing to the hot crustacean band.  This is the world’s only swim mask with an integrated waterproof digital camera that works swimmingly in pools, lakes, or the ocean. Keep your hands free as you swim all the way to a depth of 15 feet! Turn the camera on, choose a mode (video or still) with the upper button, and press the shutter to record pictures or video. The friendly LED inside the mask lets you know which mode you’ve selected. Downloading images once you’ve gotten your land legs is simple – just plug the mask into your computer’s USB port with the included cable. There’s even software included that allows you to edit your content. The built-in 16 MB memory can store up to 27 high resolution pictures or up to 52 seconds of video. A microSD card slot allows you to expand memory up to 2GB for additional pictures or videos.”-Think Geek

My little brother is a fish.  He swims everyday and loves being in the water.  when I saw the Video Swim Mask on the Think Geek website I knew I had to get it for him.  He thought it was so awesome when I gave it to him.  He said he had never seen anything like it.  He used it in his swimming pool.  It was really fun watching him take pictures and video underwater and them putting ChristmasGift2011them on the computer and seeing how they turned out.  I love that it comes with the batteries needed to operate it.  He likes how easy it is to use.  The crosshairs help him to know what will be in the picture and the LED helps him to know which mode (still or video) he is in.  But the best part is this under water camera is completely hands free.  It’s so cool!  He loves it and I highly recommend it as a gift!

This Video Swim Mask is the perfect unique gift to give the water lover on your Christmas list this year!

So Many Helpful Uses For Q-Tips!

image

 

I use Q-tips to clean my ears daily, and regularly as I need them but I never realized how many wonderful uses they have!  Here is a fabulous list (from Q-tips) of uses.  I have found it so very helpful in my everyday life:

Art & Crafts

Paintbrushes for Small Hands

· Q-tips® cotton swabs are the perfect-sized paintimage brushes for children’s small hands. For the brightest pictures and the easiest clean-up, use a different one for every color.

Remove Dirt and Grime Easily

· Remove the grime from hard-to-reach places on model train gearboxes, drive axles and bearings with Q-tips® cotton swabs.

Extra Glue for Arts & Crafts

· Q-tips® cotton swabs and Q-tips® Precision Tips™ are great for applying glue to models and arts and crafts projects. Use one tip to apply the glue and the other to remove any excess before it dries.

Precision Tools for Pottery

· Carving designs into pottery is made simple with Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precison Tips™. Use these precision tools to put the finishing touches on sculptures.

Easy Touch-Ups with Fresh Paint

· Q-tips® cotton swabs are the perfect tool to touch-up hard-to-reach areas on freshly painted model airplanes and cars – or even dollhouses.

Fun Face Paint for Halloween!

· For Halloween, use Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ to paint images – like daisies, rainbows, hearts and stars – on the face using different colors of liquid eyeliner and shadows.

Baby

A Gentler Clean for Baby

· Moisten Q-tips® cotton swabs with warm water to clean your baby’s outer ear, folds of the neck or between toes, nostrils and eyes.

Taking Care of a Newborn’s Needsimage

· Dip a Q-tips® cotton swab in rubbing alcohol to clean around your newborn’s umbilical cord.

Medicine Application for Active Tots

· Q-tips® cotton swabs are great for applying medications and ointments to minor cuts and bruises – they are convenient, clean and disposable.

Beauty

A Fantastic Alternative to the Makeup Brush

· Q-tips® cotton swabs and Q-tips® Precision Tips™ are an excellent alternative to using a makeup brush or sponge. They provide precise makeup application, are great for softening the bright colors, and safe for delicate skin around the eyes.image

Disposable Eye Shadow Brushes

· Q-tips® cotton swabs and Q-tips® Precision Tips™ are great for eye shadow application because they are disposable so you can use a new one for each color to ensure hues stay true. No need to worry about washing brushes while layering colors…they are a cleaner alternative!

Fix the Makeup “Oops”!

· To fix makeup mistakes, just dip a dot of makeup remover on a Q-tips® cotton swab or Q-tips® Precision Tip™ – to erase it! Perfect for fixing a smudge without having to re-do your whole look.

Keep Makeup In Place on Your Face!

· Dip Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ under a little water to pick up any makeup particles that have fallen under the eye or on your cheeks.

Highlight Brows and Cheekbones

· As a great way to highlight and brighten the cheekbones and eyes, apply a natural shade of shimmer powder using Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ to the upper brow area and apple of the cheekbone.

Rosy Up Those Cheeks

· Rosy up those cheeks with a hint of pink shimmer. Use Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ to apply your shimmering powder to the apples of cheeks to get glowing in no time.

A Healthy Glow – Year Round

  • Keep up a healthy glow all year by adding bronzer or shimmer to your cheeks using Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™.

The Ultimate Smokey Eye Look

· To achieve a quick smokey eye, draw a thick line close to your lash line using your eyeliner and smudge upwards with a Q-tips® cotton swab or Q-tips® Precision Tip™ to create a “smokey” effect.

Day to Night Glamour in Shades of Gray

· To instantly take your look from daytime to date night use Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ and a small eye shadow compact with shades of gray. Use one to layer and blend multiple hues for a softer, updated version of the "smokey eye."

Dab Three Dots to Hide Under Eye Circles

· Hide under eye circles by using one end of a Q-tips® cotton swab or Q-tips® Precision Tip™ to dab on three dots of concealer and the other end to blend in for a seamless finish.

Keep Your Perfect Pout in Place

· Keep lip color from bleeding by using Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ to apply loose translucent powder along the outer edge of the lips.

A Quick Fix for Eye Shadow Creases

· Smooth eye shadow creases on the lids with Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™.

Create a Shimmering Glow

  • Use Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ to apply concealer or shimmer cream along the center of nose for a longer, thinner look. To further enhance the long, thin look, apply two dots of taupe shadow to either side of the bridge of your nose.

For Longer Lasting Mascara

  • To dramatize eyes and keep mascara lasting all night long, apply extra coats of mascara. First apply one coat of mascara, then dip a Q-tips® cotton swab or Q-tips® Precision Tip™ in translucent powder and sweep over lashes. Finally, cover with a second coat of mascara.

Define Cheeks with Cream Blush

  • To define cheeks, use a Q-tips® cotton swab to apply cream blush to hollows of cheeks and blend it up and out into skin with clean fingers toward the hairline.

Achieve a Softer Lip Color

  • To achieve a softer lip color, use Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ to line lips with blush.

Dot Dot Dash for Softer Lip Liner

  • To soften your lip liner look, make a dot dot dash pattern with lip liner and use a Q-tips® cotton swab or Q-tips® Precision Tip™ to blend and soften.

Ready, Set, Go (out)!

· To set your make-up before a party, apply a loose translucent powder with Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™.

Fill In Brows for a Softer Look

· After tweezing eyebrows, fill in brows with an eye pencil or shadow. Wipe off any excess with a Q-tips® cotton swab or Q-tips® Precision Tip™ to create a softer look.

Precision Powdering

· Rather than applying powder on the entire face, use your Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ to dab loose powder only where you need it – for example, the center of the forehead, the sides of the nose and the chin.

Come In for a Gorgeous Landing

· “Roll” Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ in your favorite eye shadow and store in a plastic wrap – re-apply after flight.

Apply Fake Lashes

· Use Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ to help apply fake lashes! Start by applying a dab of lash adhesive to a Q-tips® cotton swab. Keep the tip as close to the lash line and use it to guide the application of the faux lash strip.

Simplify Your Beauty Routine

· Simplify your beauty routine and space – stick to five beauty essentials: tinted moisturizer, a multi-purpose makeup stick for eyes, cheeks and lips, concealer, one tube of mascara and one of Q-tips® cotton swabs’ four new beautifully designed Vanity Packs help apply your makeup.

Create a Glossy Pout

· Use Q-tips® cotton swabs to apply lip-gloss from a pot.

A Disposable Wand For Concealer

· Use Q-tips® cotton swabs to apply concealer from a container without a wand.

Apply Eye Shadow

· Use Q-tips® cotton swabs to apply darker eye shadow color at the edges or along the lash line.

Maximize The Life of Your Lipstick

Use Q-tips® cotton swabs to get every last bit of color from a lipstick.

Help Treat Blemishes

· To help quickly heal blemishes, apply a small dollop of an acne spot treatment with salicylic acid to the end of a Q-tips® cotton swab or Q-tips® Precision Tip™. They will help you treat blemishes without adding additional oils from your fingers.

Mask a Blemish

· To quickly hide a blemish, simply moisten one end of your Q-tips® cotton swab or Q-tips® Precision Tip™ with an astringent that contains salicylic acid and lightly dab on to the blemish. Use the other end as a makeup applicator to apply an oil-free concealer to mask the blemish.

Apply Moisturizer with an SPF

  • To help ensure even sun protection, use Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ to apply a light moisturizer with SPF 15 or higher. Place a dot on your forehead, cheeks, chin and nose, and blend with clean fingers for even coverage.

Remove Puffiness and Soothe Skin

· Help remove puffiness under the eyes with Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™. Place in the freezer a small bag of Q-tips® cotton swabs that have been dampened with water. Once chilled, roll under the eyes to alleviate any puffiness and soothe swollen skin.

Carry-on Eye Cream for Long Flights

  • Instead of carrying eye cream on the plane – dip Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ in eye cream and store in plastic wrap. Dab on eye area after takeoff and put on eye mask. Go to sleep and wake up with gorgeous, moist skin.

Anti-Wrinkle Spot-On Applicator

  • Use Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ to apply your anti-wrinkle cream directly to lines and creases.

Keep Summer Highlights Glowing

· Keep your summer highlights glowing – use Q-tipsâ cotton swabs to apply just the right amount of highlighter to your hair for streaks or for precision when touching up roots.

The At-Home Manicure

· Give yourself an at-home manicure and pedicure with Q-tips® Precision Tips™ by lightly moistening the end with nail polish remover to create your own "magic wand" that instantly erases unwanted mistakes.

Self-Tan Flawlessly

· Use Q-tips® cotton swabs or Q-tips® Precision Tips™ to apply self tanning lotion around your eyes and nose for a flawless sun-kissed look.

You Don’t Have to Wait Until Summer to Get Fabulous Beachwear

Who says it has to be the summer season to buy yourself some fabulous beachwear?  Go ahead and spoil yourself now because you deserve it.  Maybe you live somewhere warm (lucky!) or maybe you are getting ready to go on an exotic vacation (so lucky! I am jealous!).  But even if that is not the case why not put some adorable swimwear on your Christmas list?  That is what I am going to do.  And swimwear360 has a great selection to choose from.

As a mom who has had babies I usually look for one piece swimwear since it flatters my figure much better.  Swimwear360 has gorgeous one piece swim suits and cover ups.  I can hardly wait for summer to come!

Brag Worthy Christmas ~ Joovy Ultralight Caboose Stand-On Tandem Stroller Review

ultralightcaboose

IMAG1001

The new Ultralight Caboose is the lightest, most maneuverable tandem stroller available on the market today.

At 21 pounds the Caboose Ultralight is 20% lighter than the original Caboose and far lighter than most double strollers.  When we say maneuverable, we mean it!  The Caboose Ultralight can navigate narrow spaces with ease. The large, sealed ball bearing wheels give your children a smooth ride and you’ll find it is super easy to push. And thanks to its minimal weight, you can steer with just one hand!Kids absolutely love the independence and “cool” element the Caboose offers. The patented Stand-On-Tandem design gives your older child the freedom to choose between walking, standing and sitting. Parents tell us this single feature alone has given their child a head start at developing a healthy independence – a “win-win’ for both parents and kids alike.The Caboose Ultralight offers a cool, modern style and its tough 600D nylon fabric is available in rich, vivid colors: Blueberry, Orangie, Greenie, Brownie and Black.”-Joovy

IMAG1003

I have to admit I have fallen in love with a stroller.  Yes it is true.  While I thought it wasn’t possible to love a stroller so much I have now learned what true stroller love is ;)   Because I am now the proud owner of a Joovy Ultralight Caboose Stand-On Tandem Stroller.  I chose Brownie as my color and it is a great choice.  The brown and black look fabulous together and since I don’t know yet if I am expecting a boy or girl it is the perfect gender neutral color choice.

joovy

It was really easy to assemble, it took my hubby less than 10 minutes to set it up.  You just have to put the wheels on and the canopy and your all set.

I love how easy it is to open and close.  This is a must have for me and the foldedstrollers I use.  It really is effortless.  Another great feature is that it folds down pretty flat (especially compared to other tandem strollers) and easily fits in the truck of my car.  It is also really light for a double stroller weighing in at only 21 lbs.  This is nice because I can easily lift it in and out of the car by myself.

The front seat can be used as a regular stroller seat with 3 levels of recline.  It can be used from 6 months to 45 lbs.  Or you can use the included universal car seat adapter and put your infant car seat on the front seat.  So basically the front seat can can be used from birth up to 45 lbs.  My 4 year old can fit in the front seat well and the canopy is high enough that his head doesn’t touch.

 image wcarseat

Your older child can ride on the back either standing or sitting on the bench seat.  The bench seat pulls out when they are sitting on it, and pushes in to make room for them to stand on the platform.  It also has handles for your child to hold while they are standing. The back seat is suggested to be used from 2.5 years to 45 lbs.  It is perfect for your older child who likes to get in and out of the stroller often but still needs to hitch a ride.   Something to note is that when the front seat is fully reclined it is hard for your child to sit on the bench seat since they don’t have much room.  This isn’t a problem since I just have Bug stand when the front seat is reclined.IMAG1002

I love the canopy coverage.  It provides coverage for both the child in the front and the child in the back.  It also folds all the way down to completely cover the child in the front, I love this! 

I really like that the Ultralight comes with parent organizer so I have 2 cup holders and a zipper pocket to hold my cell phone, keys, etc…

   IMAG1000   IMAG0999

  I am so excited to use this stroller once my new baby arrives.  It is the perfect stroller for someone with a baby and an older child who wants independence. It provides a nice smooth ride for your kids and it is really easy to maneuver.  And since it is a tandem you can fit through regular door ways and isles when your shopping at stores. I highly recommend this tandem double stroller!

Any parent will be thrilled to get the Joovy Ultralight Caboose Stroller as a Christmas gift!

Brag Worthy Christmas ~ Infantino Sync Comfort Wrap Baby Carrier Review

carrier2

With four different wearing options, its natural embracing design keeps baby right up against you, comfortably positioned and perfectly close. Woven panels and soft straps form to your body’s shape and work with a secure buckle lumbar belt to support baby’s weight. Keeping you both cozy and connected.”-Infantino200-120 Sync

I was excited to try out the new Sync Comfort Wrap Carrier.  Right off I love the pattern, it is so cute and stands out so much from plain carriers. I’ll be honest Baby wrap carriers intimidate me.  They seem like they are so complicated to use. Luckily there is a great Video with instructions on how to use this wrap.  I watched the video and I love that it has step by step instructions on how to correctly use the wrap with your child.  Having those detailed instructions really helped me and once I tried it a couple of times I had the hang of it and felt really comfortable doing it myself.  Unlike other baby wraps I have tried in the past this one is pretty simple and easy to use.  I really like that.

infantino_thumb21

I love that it has 4 different carrying positions:

carrier1

Most of all I love the comfort of this baby carrier.  It is super comfortable for me to wear and the soft fabric makes it comfortable for baby as well.

Things that are Brag Worthy:

    • Sync combines woven and stretch fabrics for secure and comfy

Wishing For Warmer Weather? Get Some Fabulous New Swimwear and Take a Vacation!

 

So the winter cold weather can sometimes get me down.  Don’t get me wrong I enjoy the snow falling outside and the holiday season, but I love the summer beachdresssun and warmth.  I especially love laying in the sun, swimming and relaxing. 

So lately I have been wishing for a vacation to a warmer destination.  Oh I would love to be laying on a beach somewhere with my family.  I probably have this on my mind because I have been looking at fabulous Beach Dresses that Swimwear 360 has available.  They are so super cute and the perfect cover ups for your swim suit.

As I am browsing Swimwear 360 for a new swim suit for my trip I am so impressed by the quality of merchandise they offer.

Brag Worthy Christmas ~ A Must Have For Traveling With Kids ~ Joovy Foocot Child Cot Review

foocotboys

We have family that live far away, but are still close enough that we go visit them often.  When we go we sleep over and once Bug became to big for his playpen I had IMAG0980no idea what to do for a place for him to sleep.  We were lugging around a big twin sized air mattress for him to sleep on but it was such a hassle. I was really excited when I saw the Foocot Child Cot by Joovy on their website.  This is exactly what I need! 

So I got the blueberry color for my little Bug and couldn’t  wait for it to arrive (it came very quickly).  It came a few days before our trip to Grandma’s house, perfect timing.

I was immediately impressed by how small it is when folded up and it comes in a carrying bag with a strap for IMAG0979easy carrying.  It folds and unfolds SUPER EASILY similar to the way a camping chair folds and opens.

So the set up and take down is easy and fast, I love it!  I also love that it comes with a super soft fitted sheet.  It makes the cot a very comfy and cozy bed.

IMAG0974

Another fun feature is that that this cot for kids has two storage pockets on the side.  Perfect for holding sippy cups, snacks, books, and anything else your child might want close by.pocket

“The Foocot supports a child up to 48 inches tall or 75 pounds.” I love that it is small enough to be convenient but still big enough for your child to get a lot of use out of it.  4 year old Bug looks small while on it (and he is an average sized child) so I know we will get years of use before he is too big for it.

Bug loves his new kids bed for traveling and loves that it is his own special size.  He slept really well in it the whole time we were at Grandma’s house. IMAG0976

The Joovy Foocot Child Cot is a must have for traveling with kids!  Now that I have it I can’t believe we ever traveled without it. Honestly when it comes to traveling over night I won’t ever leave the house without it!  I highly recommend the Foocot.

The Foocot makes a great and practical gift for Christmas this year!  Give them a gift they will use over and over…

Brag Worthy Christmas ~ Lillébaby Nordic 6 Position Child Carrier Review

     nordic6

“Parents tells us the líllébaby™ NORDIC is the most comfortable baby carrier ever made. The ergonomic design alleviates physical stress as it balances most of baby’s weight to your hips and less on your back and shoulders. With six carrying positions you can alternate positions to avoid repetitive muscle stress nordic4and injuries.

The unique carrier seat may be customized to your baby’s size and supports correct sitting positions for baby’s spine, hip, and pelvis growth at each stage. The NORDIC gives you all options to carry your baby in the carrying position she/he prefers, including facing forward. Use the same carrier for your newborn or your toddler – it’s the only carrier you will ever need.

Made with extra padded fixed shoulder straps, it is the sturdiest of the líllébaby™ baby carriers.”

A good baby carrier is a must have when you have more than one child.  Since you have to be helping the other children you will find yourself using your child carrier often so that baby is being held while you get things done.  I was recently sent the Nordic Baby Carrier from Lillebaby.  Right away I was impressed with this carrier, it has 6 different carrying positions you can use.  They are: infantcradle

1.INFANT CRADLE w/INFANT INSERT
Newborn* to approximately 4 months

The cradle carrying position is enabled by our JPMA-certified infant insert (sold separately). The position cuddles baby in a safe upright position, with neck and back supported by the insert which also safely secures baby to the carrier. Ideal for sleeping babies.

infant2. FRONT FACE IN, INFANT SADDLE
Newborn* to approximately 5-6 months

Safely carry your newborn close to your heart and give your baby a sense of trust and security. The narrow infant saddle guarantees an ergonomically correct leg position for your infant and the neck support gently supports baby’s head.

*minimum 7lb. (3.2kg)

3. FRONT FACE IN, SUPPORT SEAT nordic3
5-6 months +

As your baby grows, the wide setting forms a natural rounding of a baby’s spine, supporting a forward pelvic tilt. This is a recommended sitting position to facilitate proper development of the hip joints for older babies and is a comfortable sitting position for your growing child.

frontfaceforward4. FRONT FACE FORWARD
4 months +

At about four months babies start becoming more alert and curious of their surroundings, described as ‘hatching’ socially. If forced to face in, babies will naturally twist their neck to face forward, risking injuries. The forward facing position facilitates bonding while allowing your baby to go through her natural phase of developing socially and take part in her surroundings. 

5. HIPnordic5
5-6 months+

The hip function makes it comfortable to carry older babies as you to support more of baby’s weight on your hip, while still having close contact with your child. Ideal for active babies with easy on and offloading. With the fixed shoulder pads on the NORDIC carrier, you will use both shoulder straps in the hip position.

6. BACK
nordic16 months+

Ideal for carrying heavier weight, the back position allows you to carry your baby for extended periods of time with ease and convenience. Remain close and attentive to your child, while keeping your hands free for regular daily activities.

I was also impressed with the comfort while wearing this carrier.  It is really lightweight and comfortable to wear, even when I had a toddler child in it.ChristmasGift2011 Best of all I love that this carrier can be used from newborn to a toddler at 42 lbs.  That is a really impressive time span.  You can use this carrier and not ever need another one!

View the Online Demo of this Carrier for additional info.

Tamron 18-270mm All-In-One Zoom Lens Review

 

tamronlens 

“Tamron’s next generation 18-270mm, the world’s lightest, smallest 15x zoom optimized for use on APS-C- DSLRs, continues the pursuit of the ideal all-in one zoom lens. Combining prior award-winning achievements with new engineering breakthroughs yielded the remarkable 18-270mm F/3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD (Piezo Drive). Special piezoelectric technology now delivers faster, quieter precision autofocusing. Tamron’s exclusive tri-axial VC (Vibration Compensation) image stabilization, featuring three pairs of driving coils and low-function ball bearings placed around the VC optical group, combats camera shake-related image blur. It’s Tamron VC that allows handheld shooting at as many as four shutter speeds slower than otherwise possible with a dramatically stable viewfinder experience. Compactness and light weight are preserved, thanks in part to the VC mechanism’s newly-developed moving coil mechanism.”-Tamron

 

“Defining compositional freedom the 18-270mm Di-II VC’s incredible 15x zoom range provides a 35mm picture angle equivalency of 28mm to 419mm, with image fidelity assured by advanced optical design featuring LD glass and aspherical optics, working in concert to render crisp, colorful and faithful images.”-Tamron

tamron-lenses

I love taking photos.  If you could see my collection of photos of Bug alone you would understand that I am somewhat camera happy :)   But I just love capturing memories of my family.  I have a Canon camera but up until now I haven’t loved the lens I was using.  That was until I received the Tamron 18-270mm all-in-one zoom lens to review.

image

Right off I fell in love with the zoom range.  From 18 mm to 270 mm, that is a huge zoom range and I have been enjoying it so much.  Now I don’t have to run over to where Bug is playing to get the adorable shot, I can simply zoom in and snap a great photo.  And since it has such a wide zoom range I don’t have to switch lenses, I really love that it is all-in-one.

I have also really been enjoying the VC image stabilization as now I am not capturing a bunch of blurry action photos of my very active little Bug. Before I had this lens I had a problem with blurry pictures often, so I find this so refreshing to have a lens with the VC technology.

Tamron’s Unique State-of-the-Art In-Lens Image Stabilization System
Handheld camera shake is the leading cause of blurry and unsharp pictures. Several leading companies now make lenses with built-in optical image-stabilization systems that sense the amplitude and direction of the shake and compensate by moving optical groups within the lens. Tamron’s exclusive new Vibration Compensation (VC) system that’s built into the Tamron AF28-300mm F/3.5-6.3 XR Di VC LD Aspherical (IF) Macro and the Tamron AF18-270mm F/3.5-6.3 Di-II VC LD Aspherical (IF) Macro lenses performs a similar function, but it executes it much more effectively due to its innovative breakthrough design.“-Tamronimage I have been using this lens for about 3 weeks now and I am really enjoying this lens and highly recommend it to someone looking for a lens with a wide zoom range.  The quality of the pictures it takes are excellent and I have been able to get some absolutely beautiful shots of my family with this lens.

Being a busy mom with a lot of things to get done we spend a lot of time in the car.  Running errands, going to and from school, etc…so I was thrilled when I was introduced to the AutoLearner!

She envisioned a product that would easily maximize their time in the car and help spark educational conversations.  With the help of her partner, Rachel Ginsberg, AutoLearner is now a useful tool for parents looking to create a meaningful dialogue with their children while in the car.”image

I was sent the Alphabet Lesson and Numbers Lesson.  I have been so impressed with how much Bug has learned from these lessons I put in our Autolearner.  He is memorizing and recognizing his letters and numbers faster than ever before.  It is a great tool for teaching your children and I recommend it to all parents looking for a creative way to teach their children!

Think Geek Boogie Board LCD Tablet Review

 boogie_board_anim

“This ain’t yo momma’s Etch-A-Sketch, son. This paperless LCD writing tablet is perfect for leaving messages, sketching ideas, and practicing anything from boogie_board_inuse_embedhandwriting to calculus without killing a single tree. But we hear you. You’re thinking, "Can *I* use this thing for, ThinkGeek?" Allow us to give you some suggestions, based on your likely occupation. 

  • Parental Unit: Grocery lists, honey-do’s, chores list, scoreboard for family game night
  • Monkey-suited Executive: Take notes at meetings, draw buzzword-laden charts
  • Artiste: Quick sketching exercises, doodles 
  • Mad Scientist: Molecules, schematics, master boogie_board_erase_embedplans
  • (Perpetual) Student: Handwriting, math, homework to-do list
  • Monkey: Banana inventory, poo-to-target success rate

thinkgeeklogo

The stainless steel, telescoping stylus isn’t the only tool you can use to write on the Boogie Board, either. Anything from a finger to a stiff brush to a cookie cutter can be used to light up the pressure-sensitive surface. If you or your geekling are personally responsible for the death of forests worth of trees per year, consider the environmental impact of having one totally renewable Boogie Board. The LCD display lasts for approximately 50,000 erasures, which is a whole lot of doodling and noting. Save a tree, boogie down with us.”-Think Geek

Wow this is a fun product!  The Boogie Board LCD Tablet is perfect for kids (or adults) who love to draw.  Bug enjoys drawing a lot.  So when he saw this new drawing board he thought it was pretty cool (and still does).  What’s great is it comes with a stylus that makes it so it’s like you are drawing with a pen or pencil.  Very cool.  Super easy to use, and with the press of a button it erases like magic!  I love that it saves so much paper, environmentally friendly is awesome!  But my favorite use for this is with Bug while we travel.  It is perfect for in the car, while running errands, at the doctors office, etc…it keeps him occupied and he really enjoys drawing on it.  It is the perfect size for putting in my purse as well making it really convenient to bring along.

Carrying baby can be tiring so having a baby carrier is a must.  I was recently sent the Britax Baby Carrier with CarryLong System and immediately fell in love with it.

I love the design, it looks really nice and it’s something I would proudly wear anywhere. 

I love how it distributes the weight on your shoulders back and hips.  I really noticed a difference in how I felt after an hour of carrying baby.  My back usually hurts when I use a carrier, but with this one it didn’t hurt during or afterwards. So Nice!

Another thing I love is that you can use it with baby facing you or with baby facing out.  And you can use it from 8 lbs. to 32 lbs. giving you years of use with baby anytime you need to carry her.

It is great that the waist band is adjustable making it usable for both mom & dad, or babysitter, or grandma, etc…I also love that it has belt storage bands so you don’t have loose straps hanging all over the place.

I was thrilled to learn that it is machine washable because as a busy mom I just don’t have the time to hassle with hand washing things.

Best of all I love how comfortable me and baby are when using this carrier.  It gives such a good fit for us both and I know baby is secure while in it.

This is a fabulous baby carrier and I highly recommend it!
