CJ's BUTTer Review & Giveaway


I had the pleasure of reviewing CJ'S BUTTer. CJ's BUTTer generously sent me a few samples to try out and I loved them.

CJ's BUTTer is a well known WAHM mom product that has now become the IT thing!! It is sold worldwide, and is defiantly amazing BUTTer. It was created to help with diaper rash and later found out it could be used for different things such as eczema, dry elbows, rashes.

CJ's BUTTer really is awesome, I used it for lil A's diaper rashes and also for Adryana's eczema my munchkins have very sensitive skin as I've said before. So having a BUTTer that works wonders makes my life easier for the fact that I know what I can use for it and I KNOW it will work. Its a cloth diapering, daily use product really for whatever you want to use it on.. Definitely a MUST HAVE in your household !

Did I mention that they have over 30+ scents I love there scents they have a scent for everyone I think. CJ'S BUTTer not only has the BUTTer but they also have lotions, sprays, cleaners.
I have not tried them all but I'm sure there amazing I can only imagine their future products. I enjoyed reviewing CJ's butter everyone talks about it and now I had to chance to also talk about CJ's BUTTer.


I was also sent a lotion samples I too loved it. Its sliky, light on my dry skin !! Overall CJ's BUTTer is amazing I love it. Totally recommend it to cloth diapering parents!! For parents daily use on everything. There lotions are perfect for any type of skin. The BUTTer is nice and smooth.
Totally recommend CJ's BUTTer.
CJ's BUTTer was kind enough to also want to giveaway a 4 oz. Creamy Lotion to one of my awesome Readers. So here it is...

Glow Bug Review



Glow bugs really made my lil bug glow!! 
He looked stunning in his super cute print!!

Glow bug diapers sent me a super cute apple print for little Ashton, 
let me say super convinient, easy, no stuffing just snap wear and 
let it agitate doesn't get easier then that. 
Here is some Design Features on Glow Bug One Size Diapers




*Two sets of cross-over snaps through the waist band for a perfect fit around newborn tummies

*Double rows of snaps with square tabs for a trim fit through the hip

*Four size settings fitting babies from birth through potty training (7lbs-35lbs)

*Coordinating coloured snaps for every print

*Waterproof flaps in the front and the back of each diaper to prevent leaks

*Double gusset through the leg for an extra barrier of protection

*NEW SlimDry™ fabric keeps baby’s skin dry without the bulk

*Two openings in the pocket makes it easier to get the absorbent inset in and out

*Snap-in inserts to keep it in place while baby’s on the move





Here is what I received, super cute apple print One Size Diaper.
 The inner is amazing love the cross over tabs, 
the double gusset is one of my favorite, for the fact that
it keeps the messes contained. The elastic is soft around Ashtons legs which is always nice.

As you can see Glow Bug OS Diapers are defiantly a OS fits most it 
gets pretty small for newborns.
It also gets big for a toddler as you can see in the picture, 
which is awesome to know that you will only have to purchase 
diapers once and your done. 


I love the elastic around his chubby legs, 
it wraps around his legs so well, 
without causing the Dark Red Marks that are painful.


Little Ashton my Glow Bug Model.



My Experience 

I'm loving all the prints that Glow Bug has to offer, 
I love that its a very trim diaper. Therefore I have no problem with clothes fitting over his fluffy butt.
The snap in inserts make it easy to deal with like I said before the elastic is nice and snug around his legs,
I had no leaks with Glow Bug diapers. For daytime I only used the one snap in insert and it worked great. Now for night time I did stuff another insert just because I know my lil man is a heavy wetter and would leak through in the middle of the night if I didn't. The double gussets help contain all the mess which I totally love the inner lining is super soft on there bums. While doing laundry the insert just agitates out so I didn't have to touch any dirty diapers which is always a plus.

Overall I loved Glow Bug One Size Diapers there was a couple things I would change on the diaper. Ashton is a very active moving baby so the diaper moves with his every move of course and the The Front Pocket Waterproof Flap also moved making the flap rise to the top and I didn't like that.
Also for night time I had to stuff another insert to double it up and I had to get a short insert because the snap in insert made it hard to stuff a regular size insert, so it would be awesome if there one insert had another snap on the opposite site or on top; for us parents to snap on another insert as a doubler. 
Everything else was great Im super happy I had the opportunity to try one of these cute Glow Bug Diapers.

Ingredients

“THE” BALM! BODY BUTTER! ALL ORGANIC Ingredients:

Olive oil infused calendula, cocoa butter, shea butter, coconut oil, macadamia nut oil, corn starch, vitamin e T-50 & essential oils of: orange & lavender


My Experience 

I love lotions, creams, balms. When I was pregnant with my daughter I literally rubbed wax butter on my entire body. I was determined to not get stretch marks, unfortunately I still did get stretch marks. Which I call my "Flames" :) My husband would just laugh or ask why do you put lotion all over your body??

I guess I just love to be moisturized, "THE BALM" offers a Body Butter which is amazing along with all there other products. Its whipped super soft and you only need a little and it goes a long way. I rub it on my body, I also use it on Ashton after his baths, it smells great and for some reason when I apply it on him, he always seems to take a nap after, could be all the natural ingredients soothe him to sleep. So I try to use it on him every time. 

These last past couple days my hands have been very dry and crack, because of the packing and cleaning.
Stuffing my diapers has been annoying because of my dry cracked skin the microfiber inserts stick to my hands   super annoying so I applied the butter on my hands over night and put a sock over my hands and the next morning my hands were so soft. Its very light not greasy at all its seriously amazing. 
It comes in recycled aluminum tin which is reusable for something else after your done with your Body Butter which is super awesome.

This is another "THE BALM" products I love and is a definitely a "MUST" have in my home.


I love "THE BALM" products.

Megan Wills - Laptop Cozy Review

I've had to pleasure of meeting some very awesome moms over the internet. I use forums like Diaperswapper.com where you swap diapers and any other awesome goodies its also a chat room, I love it and I'm almost always on it :)  There is a lot of WAHM (Work At Home Mom's) that have very awesome products. Its something to admire. I think its amazing to come up with a certain product that your great at making and selling it and just sharing it with other moms. I came across a WAHM that crochet, her name is Megan Wills she's amazing. She sent me a Laptop Cozy for my Mac Laptop and I love it. Its very well made, the stitching is nice and tight the flower is super cute, keeps my laptop away from any scratches and my Laptop is pretty cozy now  :) 








A little bit about Meagan, straight from the knitting room.


About Megan: 

           
 "I am a stay at home mom to three gorgeous kids. My oldest will be 6 in October and my twins will be 4 in August. I've been married to my husband for 6 years, and with him for 8 years now. I decided to start my own shop to make a little bit of extra income. I would love for my shop to take off enough so I can make enough money per month to stay home even when the kids are in school."


What kind of yarn do you use Meagan: 

"I use whatever yarn my customer asks for. I like cotton and wool best, but acrylic is a very easy to care for yarn. "

How long does it take you to make a Computer Cozy? 

"It takes me about an hour to two hours to make the cozy. I rarely get an hour or two in a row to sit down and work though, so it is done in shorts spurts of time."


I love my Computer Cozy, if you want to keep your computer away from scratches, and getting damaged I recommend getting a Computer Cozy. Visit her Shop or contact her on her email to set something up.

Meagan is awesome and will work with your ideas or images you might have in mind, she's awesome like that.

We decided to look around and find something workable.. well GOD is great we have found a beautiful HOME to rent that is cheaper, bigger, and its a HOUSE!!  

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths" (Proverbs 3:5,6). 

We will be moving at the end of March so will be busy then, i will start to pack little by little.

Groovycheeks

Save money, save the planet, pass it on…



Welcome,

Super excited to introduce Groovycheeks One Size Fits Most Bamboo Pocket Diaper. Why don’t you grab a snack take a seat and enjoy…



Groovycheeks is a One Size Pocket diaper it comes with the cover and one bamboo/cotton insert. Groovycheeks comes with cross over tabs, which is nice for those of you moms like myself that have newborn babies or babies with a smaller waist. It also has 3 rise snap setting for different sizing, 3 snaps per tab, hip snaps to prevent wing droop. Fits babies from 8-35 lbs.

The exterior fabric is 70% bamboo 30% cotton with a waterproof PUL that is made from recycled bottles. The interior fabric is 100% bamboo mircofleece.
Inserts are bamboo/cotton and stitched around the edge, they are pretty absorbent. I love these inserts.


I love taking photos so I hope these photos help you get a vision of Groovycheeks



                         


                             Inside PUL lining

Interior Fabric Charcoal Bamboo Super Soft makes me want to wear some of these ... hehe




Groovycheeks at its largest setting for toddlers, its a pretty good size also tabs are pretty stretchy.



                           Groovycheeks at its medium setting





                            Groovycheeks at its smallest setting 
                 (which is the setting I currently have for my son)



                                  Meet the Groovycheeks model.. Ashton


My son is 3 1/2 mths old weights about 15 lbs.
 He is currently in the smallest settings, and also using the first 
crossover tab, he has a small waist, with Groovycheeks we did not 
experience those red marks from the diaper being to tight they 
fit just right, because of the different sizing adjustments.





Mommy & Daddy Friendly: Totally mommy & daddy  friendly super easy to use. You’ll have to play around with your Groovycheeks diaper to see what rise settings you like and fits best on your baby but after the first couple tries you’ll become a pro at Groovycheeks snapping. 

Daytime use: Groovycheeks are awesome during the day, super comfy. The cotton/bamboo insert is pretty absorbent, we did not experience leaks we went about 2-3 hrs without a change of diaper and we had no leaks. 

Nighttime use: Groovycheeks is good at nights if you don’t have a heavy wetter. My son is a heavy wetter during nights so I double stuffed my diaper so I wouldn’t wake up to any surprises. You know what I mean?

All in All: Groovycheeks Bamboo One Size diapers are super awesome, they are super soft. I love the fact that the interior color is charcoal so no need to worry about stains. It’s also a very trim diaper compared to other one size diapers which is awesome because then his clothes fits him well. All in all Its just a very simple comfy diaper to use! Not to mention Mika the owner is an amazing super sweet person answered all my questions I'm positive she would do the same for you all, great customer service.

What I would change: The one thing I would change about Groovycheeks diaper would be the narrow pocket, might be a bit challenging for some mamas and papas. Though I must say stitching is nicely reinforced, no need to worry about ripping or anything like that.
I love me some Groovycheeks they are Awesome and Affordable.

Groovycheeks  also has a One Size Pocket diaper with microfleece lining same concept like the bamboo. Groovycheeks have has a variety of colors. You have a lot of colorto choose from as well as there Wet Bags!!










Bamboo One Size Pocket Diaper  $ 22.50
One Size Pocket Diaper $ 17.50
Wetbags $ 7.50 


Ready to shop go check them out  Groovycheeks !!!
