Little Ace Wonders Cloth Diaper Review

Little Ace Wonders is a facebook store that WAHM Michelle owns. I purchased a pocket diaper at a reduced price. As soon as I saw the print I knew that I had to have it. If you know our family and this blog we are eco crazy. Her pocket diapers are $18 plus shipping. So lets lets get on and show the print!
When I first got this diaper I was put off a bit by the front pocket since I have never seen one before. Once we put this diaper on the baby it was a great fit there was no slack to get tucked behind. Lets show the back side which is my favorite!

If this diaper isn't cute enough let me show you the inside.
It is a very pretty blue minky.
This diaper has a front pocket for stuffing which I have decided that I really like. There is no added bulk from the flaps.


Now for the front and butt baby shot..


She also makes newborn AIO $14
Pocket diapers you get a choice of inner also which is minky or butter suede, they are $18
AI2 Diapers are$20 your choice of inner material. All contain pul unless specified other wise.


Inserts are 1.50 each and have  two layers of zorb.

Also upcoming are two night time options and a swim diaper before may!

SO make sure to visit her FACEBOOK page to purchase a cute diaper. Print shown in this review is also available.

Truvía® natural sweetener Product Review

I recently tried Truvia Natural sweetener packets.
Truvia® natural sweetener is refreshingly uncomplicated. Sprinkle it on your grapefruit. Spoon it in your coffee. It won't end up on your conscience or your thighs.
One packet of Truvia® natural sweetener provides the same sweetness as two teaspoons of sugar.
Truvia® natural sweetener is a great alternative for people with diabetes. It is also kosher certified.

I use less when i use this as it is naturally sweeter than regular sugar. I really like it and will continue to use it.

The Natural Dentist Review & Giveaway

Do you hate the way most mouth wash tastes? I know I do i hated using it until I found The Natural Dentist. I was sent a bottle of their Mouth wash for Healthy Gums.
If you are experiencing“pink in the sink” when you spit out your toothpaste, or blood on your dental floss, take heed. People mistakenly think this is a sign that they are brushing hard/well or flossing efficiently, but bleeding gums is actually a symptom of gingivitis, and it is a warning sign that your gums need serious attention.
Dentists estimate that 80% of us develop gum disease in our lifetimes, ranging from mild gingivitis to severe periodontitis. If left untreated, however, gum disease may progress to other oral health issues, including tooth loss (it’s the #1 reason for adult tooth loss!). Other studies and experts, including Dr. Oz, have also linked gum disease to heart disease, stroke, breast cancer and respiratory diseases, such as COPD.
While it can happen to anyone, the following raise the risk for developing gingivitis:
§ Poor dental hygiene
§ Pregnancy/puberty/menopause (hormonal changes increase the sensitivity of the gums)
§ Uncontrolled diabetes
§ Genetics/family history (30% of general population susceptible to gum disease)
§ Smoking
§ Stress
§ Medications
§ General illness
Gingivitis is due to the long-term effects of plaque deposits, and it is often painless, so bleeding gums may be your only symptom until it has progressed further along (other symptoms are swollen/tender gums, receding gums, and/or persistent bad breath). Luckily, one of the early warning signs of the gum inflammation ISthe bleeding you see when you brush or floss, so it is your body’s way of telling you something’s not right. If you have a family history of this issue or notice bleeding when you brush or floss, you should schedule a dental visit to evaluate your condition, as well as take steps at home by adding The Natural Dentist Healthy Gums Anti-Gingivitis Rinseto your oral care regimen.



The Natural Dentist Healthy Gums Mouth Rinse is clinically proven to:
  • Reduce and prevent bleeding gums
  • Protects against gingivitis
  • Kill germs
  • Reduces plaque
  • Freshens breath
  • Contains Aloe Vera gel as its active ingredient to help prevent bleeding gums
  • Also contains other natural medicinal components such as Echinacea, goldenseal, calendula, and grapefruit seed extract that help calm gum inflammation
The Natural Dentist line is powered by nature, proven by science. The Natural Dentist Healthy Gums Anti-Gingivitis Rinse DOES NOT contain alcohol or artificial ingredients, making it natural and healthy for your mouth. However, unlike other natural products, The Natural Dentist tests its products in controlled studies. Universities, oral care experts, periodontists, and dental hygienists continually evaluate the products, ingredients and effectiveness. The Natural Dentist products are not tested on animals; research is conducted with human volunteers and laboratory tests. View research studies, publications and abstracts at http://www.stopbleedingnaturally.com/clinicalstudies.php.

The Natural Dentist Healthy Gums Rinse is available at all several major retailers nationwide including Walgreens, Rite Aid, Whole Foods and more for an average retail price of $7.49.

Harvey Prince perfume Review & Giveaway

This is a perfume review from Harvey Prince.  They sent me a full sized bottle and some samples for review.
The full sized bottle they sent me is their Eau Fling 8.8ml bottle which retails for $26.00.
Prepare to turn heads. The sensual and spicy scent of Eau Fling combines jasmine, lavender and pumpkin pie notes, which have been shown to attract and excite men. The press is calling Harvey Prince’s Eau Fling the modern day "love potion.”

Coquettish top notes of lavender, blackcurrant and plum contrast with a heart of night-blooming jasmine and the spicy warmth of nutmeg and cinnamon—a combination often associated with rituals of pleasure. A sensual back of rare woods and musk lingers on the skin.  

Eau Fling is inspired by a study conducted at The Smell and Taste Treatment & Research Foundation in Chicago, led by two physicians with over 50 years of medical experience between them. The study tested the effects of 30 different single scents and combined ingredient scents on male sexual arousal. Lavender, jasmine and pumpkin pie proved to evoke the most passionate response.

Notes: Lavender, Blackcurrant, Plum, Raspberry, Apple, Jasmine, Nutmeg, Cinnamon, Musk, Rare Woods
Style: Stimulating. Sensual. Spicy.

They all smell so great and I really love the samples that they sent as well. These are a great summer/spring scent and will compliment any woman that wears it.

Want to win a bottle of Eau Fling? 3 winners will win 1 bottle!

Heirloom Soapworks Review

Heirloom Soapworks is a great local company to me. The carry natural and homemade soaps. I have reviewed 2 of their soaps that they have in their store. First is their Unscented soap which is called their Coconut Milk soap Unscented. The one I got that day was in cupcake form and was so cute.
Coconut palms and warm island breezes -perhaps we can't experience that everyday, but we can care for our skin the "island way": with pure coconut milk soap that's full of rich, tropical butters! Coconut milk makes such a lovely, moisturizing soap, and I've designed this one specifically for sensitive skin. It's 100% fragrance free and made with skin-pampering vegetable oils and butters. No animal products in this variety either, so it's vegan-friendly.

Enriched with skin-nourishing ingredients: coconut milk, mango butter & avocado butter, this 100% natural soap is spa-quality, and suitable for face and body.

Each bar is approx. 4.5-5 oz. and is minimally packaged using recycled materials.

Ingredients: saponified oils of olive, coconut & palm; filtered well water, coconut milk, mango butter & avocado butter.

No Animal Testing - No Synthetics - No Parabens - No SLS - No Petroleum. That's right, it's ALL good!

~Note: Because our soaps contains extra amounts of tropical butters it is especially important to keep your soap well-drained between uses. A wire rack or water-draining soap dish is highly recommended to extend the life of your soap.~
This bar Normally come in bar shape and retail for $6.00
This is a great soap and I think it would make a great soap for all of you that make your own laundry detergent.

Next soap that I have reviewed is their Cupcake soap which retails for $5.99.
All Natural Soap Cupcakes from Heirloom Soapworks can make bathing a bit more fun -for kids, and everyone in the family! You've probably seen soap "cupcakes" before, but 100% natural soap cupcakes can be hard to find.
We offer 100% natural vegan "soapcakes" in several varieties: Almond Oatmeal-Orange,(tan & orange color) Lavender Mint (pink with white tops) and Jasmine-Sandalwood-Lavender (white with pink tops)
Each "cupcake" is approx. 4.5 oz. and comes packaged in a clear plastic clamshell with coordinating bow -ready for gift-giving.
Ingredients: olive oil, coconut oil, palm oil, filtered well water, sodium hydroxide, shea butter, mango butter, cocoa butter & essential oils. Note: Almond Oatmeal-Orange variety also contains oatmeal, and Lavender-Mint & Jasmine-Sandalwood-Lavender varieties contain French pink clay.
What a cute gift this would be a great item to get ahead of time for mothers day! I know my mom loves beautiful soaps that are all natural and great for the skin. They have other colors and smells in the cupcake as on their web site.

3 Lucky winners will win 1 bar of soap of their choice.

Litter Robot Review

This is a great review if you have cats in your house and you hate to clean out the litter box. This review is on the Litter Robot. I was sent their LR2 Bubble Unit which retails for $359.99. The Litter Robot is a self cleaning litter box and I have to say overall we love it.
It came in a huge box and I was really excited to get it. When we opened the box they all come in large sized pieces. There was instructions and it was easy to put together.

So What's in the Box?

  • (1) Litter Robot II Bubble Unit Fully Assembled
  • (1) Lip Extender (Comes Assembled to Globe)
  • (1) Carbon Filter
  • (3) Waste Drawer Liners
  • (1) 12VDC Power Supply
  • (1) Manual
  • (1) Return and Repack Instructions
    The Litter-Robot’s standard litter efficiency and compatibility with biodegradable litters makes it a litter box that you can brag about! And don’t forget that Litter-Robot is made in the USA. Buying local reduces energy consumed, and pollution emitted by transporting product from overseas.

When all 3 pieces are put together it looks like this.
Ok so now that you have seen how to put it together you want to know how it works right? Let me show you.
Let me also tell you the advantages of using the litter robot.
The Litter-Robot frees you from the chore of litter box scooping.
  • You can be confident that your cats have a litter box that is cleaned automatically and reliably, again and again.
  • The large waste drawer holds several days' worth of waste, giving you the time and freedom to do the things you enjoy.
  • You can take that weekend trip or leave town for a short business trip without having to worry about your cat’s litter box.
  • Cleaning the litter box is now as simple as changing a kitchen garbage bag every few days.
    • If you have several cats, the drawer may still need to be emptied daily.
  • No Special Receptacles or Waste Bags.
    • Why spend a lot of money on special receptacles or waste bags? The Litter-Robot was designed to work with inexpensive standard 8 and 13 gallon kitchen garbage bags - those larger grocery bags work very well, too.
  • Works with Any Clumping Litter.
    • Contact us at info@litter-robot.com or call toll-free, 1-877-250-7729, if you have any questions about using a particular kind of litter.
  • No More Litter Box Smell.
    • The Litter-Robot waste drawer was designed to prevent mold growth, eliminating that typical cat box smell. However, we do recommend that you empty the waste drawer at least once a week - after all, there are limits.
  • Saves Money.
    • Customers have reported litter savings of up to 40% with the Litter-Robot as compared with traditional litter boxes or other self cleaning litter boxes.
  • Safe and Comfortable for Your Cats.

  • We Love this litter box..The one and only thing that I do not like about it is my cats like to jump out of it instead of walking down the step that they scatter litter out of the litter box. Having 4 cats this makes a mess and I have to sweep the floor daily. I would rather sweep the floor than scoop the litter box though!
    Don't tell my cat I posted this pic he may be embarrassed..
