Sewn By Tash: A Review

I won this 10" reversible liner in the Earth Day giveaway hosted by Sewn By Tash on Facebook. She offered an adorable "Go Green" print. The giveaway was for the winner's choice of a 6", 8", or 10" liner. I choose the 10" to use for overnight protection when a pad is not needed.

 
The thing I love most about this liner is that it fits perfectly into my wash routine. I hand wash and air dry my cloth pads so I need cloth pads and liners that will dry over night. The liner washed up easy but had light staining as I stain everything except for minky fabric. I was able to use a stain stick and the staining was completely removed.

 
 
Sewn By Tash cloth pads are made in Canada in a pet friendly environment. She has incredible customer service and I would definitely recommend Sewn By Tash to my family and friends. You can find her on Facebook and Etsy.

Why I want to try Skinny Teatox!


There are many reasons to try Skinny Teatox teas.

  • Lose weight
  • Burn calories

The main reason I would like to try Skinny Teatox is to lose weight. I the past 3 year since I had my son I have put on a "few" pounds. I would love to try a detox tea to help with that process. I have heard many success stories of how detoxing has helped people. I for one, am willing to give it a try.

Another reason I would like to try is the possibility of increased energy levels. I have an almost 3 year old son. He is extremely active and some days I need all the energy I  can get to play with him plus maintain my household.

Head & Shoulders Moisture Care: A Review

Thanks to the good folks at BzzAgent, I was able to try and review the new Head & Shoulders Moisture Care Collection. I received free products in exchange for my honest review, all opinions are 100% my own.

 

 

All my friends and family know that I love my hair, it's kinda my thing. I've always had medium length coarse or textured hair and I've always had dandruff and horrible itching. After having my son almost 3 years ago my hair/scalp issues seem to have gotten worse. Fortunately for me, BzzAgent seems to read my mind all the time! I was very happy to be selected to try the new The NEW Head & Shoulders Moisture Care Collection for textured hair.
 
 
The BzzKit that I received included a full size 2 in 1(dandruff shampoo + conditioner), a full size co-wash, and a full size moisture care scalp soother along with a coupon. The 2 in 1 and co-wash both have pyrithione zinc with help with dandruff. They also have vitamin E rich almond oil and coconut essence. The Scalp Soother has peppermint oil complex and vitamin e.
 To start off you use the 2 in 1 dandruff shampoo and conditioner. It gives you 7 great benefits:
  • Removes flakes
  • Calms itching
  • Relieves irritation
  • Reduces redness
  • Great scent
  • Fights dryness
  • Leaves hair beautiful
You just use it as you would a normal shampoo. The directions say to use at least twice a week for best results. For me it rings truthful. I typically am able to wash my hair twice each week but with an active 2 year old it can be difficult. I've been using this for about a month and I can definitely tell the difference when I can only wash once a week.
 
Up next is the co-wash. I just apply it after shampooing like I would a conditioner. The co-wash is used to help prevent the reoccurrence of flaking and itching associated with dandruff. It has the same benefits of the 2 in 1 shampoo and conditioner. 
 
 The moisture care Scalp Soother is fantastic! You can use this product anytime, anywhere to help balance scalp moisture. You apply it directly to the scalp. It can also be used after shampooing. Just towel dry the hair and apply 15 pumps to the scalp and massage in with fingers. Don't rinse it off, just style as usual.

 It came with a great high value coupon for future use.

 

All in all, I would and do recommend this collection of hair care products to my family and friends. This is definitely one colletion to check out.
