Good Bubble Review
Bath time is always a fun time for my children and a relaxing time for me as I can just sit there and watch them. They love to pretend to swim and play with their bath toys. Recently, I came across Good Bubble via a fellow blogger and saw that they get a good review. In particular, the thing that caught my attention is the use of the superfruit in their product. There are some very interesting fruits and there are no such fruity smelling products for children that I’m aware of. I was pleased that they got in touch for us to try their superfruit toiletries too.
Good Bubble comes in two different superfruit ranges: dragon fruit and cloudberry. Each range comes with four different products: hair & body wash, shampoo, conditioner and bubble bath. I have received three products: Cloudberry Bubble Bath, Dragon Fruit Hair & Body Wash and Dragon Fruit Conditioner.
Beauty Time – Bloggers Night In
How can a bloggers’ night in be without pampering ourselves! After all the food and games we played, we settled ourselves and painting our nails. Some of us tried the Models Own Midori Melon-scented nail polish. The colour is too bight for my liking otherwise it is a nice polish and is easy to apply.
Digital Ozeri Precision II
Having owned a set of old fashioned analogue bathroom scales for a long time, it is a big step up for us to move to the digital world of bathroom scales! Having digital scales can make taking the reading easier. I still remember the days of having to crouch down and squint to try and take the reading. There is always good points and bad points about having a precise reading. Take my husband for example, he weighed x amount and he could not believe that he had put on weight. He insisted that he had a lot of added weight on, because it was a cold – he wore a coat, scarf and had his phone in his pocket. So he undressed himself and weighed again. He was instantly pleased that he lost 1.5 kg just from clothing and phone! So if you are as fussy as him, perhaps you should get yourself a digital scales!

Bath Fun with Disney Princess Ariel’s Vanity Set
This Disney Princess Ariel’s Vanity Set lets girls recreate their favourite Little Mermaid moments while in the tub. It includes Ariel bath vanity, lipstick, perfume bottle, cream blush compact and a cream eye shadow pot. Due to the natural of these bath items and my child’s privacy, the toys are played in both on outside and inside the bath tub. These photos are taken before the bath time.
Take part in the Hygiene Revolution
Recently, through a fellow blogger, I got to learn about Hygiene Revolution. The Hygiene Revolution has been borne out of the claims made by other brands in the hygiene/cleaning space. They believe that products containing Byotrol technology are the only products on the market that can kill and protect from unwanted germs for up to 24 hours.
I have been sent two products: Tesco Anti-Bacterial Multi-Purpose Cleaner and Boots Anti Viral Hand Foam. If you followed my blog, you should know I am house proud and I clean my house very regularly. I use all sorts of products to keep it clean.
Maid Simple Products Review
Cleaning has become one of my regular pastimes as a Stay At Home Mum. To be honest, I do love to clean my house as I am house proud. Over the years, I have tried so many big brand cleaning products and recently came across Maid Simple. Maid Simple is a family business that has been involved with cleaning products for over 20 years. I have received four cleaning products from them and this is what I think about their products.
Alma Win Orange Oil Cleaner
There are so many different cleaning products on the market. Are you getting confused with the chemicals used and how effective they are? Until today, I had not heard about Alma Win Orange Oil Cleaner. The company kindly gave me a bottle to try. It is an all-purpose cleaner and completely biodegradable. It is concentrated and comes in baby safe screw top cap with a flow control spout. The smell of orange is quite strong.

Dead Sea Spa Magik Products
As a busy mum of two young children I have no time to go to a spa or sometimes it’s struggle to even to have a nice hot bath. When I got to review Dead Sea Spa Magik products, it was a good reason to make more ‘me’ time. I received a sachet of Mineral Shampoo & Hair Magik Serum, Spa Magik Salt Brushing 500g, Spa Find Dead Sea Bath Salts and Calmit Extract.
Cosatto EASI PEASI Changing Unit
Cosatto changing unit is the most straightforward to assemble and took me 30 minutes by myself. Not much of screwing or hammering. There are lots of useful storage compartments but they are a little too small for big items like eczema cream. I like the shape of the bathtub, which is beneath the changing mat, as it allows baby to sit at an angle. As for the bathtub, we didn’t use it as we had the changing unit in our living room. It comes with a comfy, padded and easy to clean changing mat.
