Live Clean Baby Collection Exclusively at Walgreens

 

I never really considered Walgreens to be the place to go for an eco conscience product, but low and behold they have exclusivity with Live Clean Baby.

Live Clean is a Canadian brand with eco-friendly personal care products with quite a positive reputation there and now is making it’s way to the US with the launch of Live Clean Baby. This simple, environmentally aware collection of products is specially formulated with both mother’s concerns and baby’s sensitivities in mind. 

With most eco friendly products the price tag is a little bit higher than you would normally consider for a Tearless Shampoo and Wash that gently cleanses baby’s hair and scalp without drying; a Moisturizing Baby Bath that gently cleanses and moisturizes baby’s delicate skin, a Moisturizing Baby Lotion that leaves baby’s skin soft and smooth with a non-greasy feel; a Non-Petroleum Jelly and a Diaper Ointment that soothes baby’s tender skin and forms a protective barrier against wetness; and a Moisturizing Bar Soap that is enriched with Shea butter to gently moisturize baby’s skin. The price is $7.99

If you’re looking for vegan products then Live Clean Baby is for you. Using only natural, non-irritating, supremely gentle plant based ingredients, Live Clean Baby performs efficiently and gently to keep baby looking, feeling – and smelling – their very best. “The criteria we’ve developed for the Live Clean brand begins with an ecologically responsible point of view,” says Executive Vice President, Michelle Sparrock, referring to the common, eco-damaging ingredients you won’t find in Live Clean. “As resilient as babies are, we know that their developing systems are also extremely sensitive. We wanted to create baby products with nothing extraneous, nothing unnecessary. Everything from the natural surfactants to the fragrance is both minimal and mild.” They use no animal ingredients in the formulations. The collection is also cruelty-free meaning none of the products or their ingredients have been tested on animals. In its sensitivity to the environment, Live Clean is also free of phosphates, known contributors to water pollution. Plus their packaging has been carefully created to be as earth-friendly as possible. The Live Clean containers are recyclable; they are made from “virgin” materials, making them far easier to recycle than many plastics. Shipping cartons are made from recycled materials and even the inks used on shipping cartons are safe for the environment. Local vendors are used to the maximum which cuts down on gas consumption and emissions thus reducing their overall carbon footprint.

It is available exclusively at Walgreens, the nation’s largest drugstore chain with more than 8,000 stores across the country as well as online at Walgreens.com.

Miracle Mission: Johnson’s Contribution to My Charity Special Delivery

I like to take a small project for charity and make it is big as I can. So when Pampers presented me with helping out a local charity, I chose Special Delivery and I got a list of their needs. They always need things to give the new moms.

So what’s Johnson’s good at?

Baby Products!

Johnson’s asked me to host a giveaway for them, The Treasuring Everyday Joy Book and gift basket giveaway. I said yes, and asked for a donation. They sent me six beautiful baskets in fun bright colors.

I’m so grateful to Johnson’s for making this donation and I can’t wait to deliver it to Special Delivery. It’s an awesome donation for any new mom. Especially one in need.

Johnson’s Treasuring Everyday Joy with Alyson Hannigan

My two bundles of joy bring me happiness every day. They make me laugh cry and love my life. Zoe is 4 going on teenager ready to move out. She wants to wear makeup and go to college and is almost always sporting a princess dress for playtime. Miles is 3 going on driving me up the wall. He pays attention like a cat walks on water but amuses me when he’s in his comedian joke telling mode. They both complete every day for me. Our house had a flood about three weeks ago and the kids have been sleeping on our bed in our room. Each night my husband or I get to sleep in the bed with them, and you may think I’m crazy but I enjoy it a great deal. I get quite a sense of peace and joy sleeping in the same bed as my children. Hearing them breathe is the most peaceful sound in the world to me. That’s my everyday joy!

Joy Logo FinalJohnson’s kicked off the treasuring everyday joy campaign earlier this year. They went around the country and found 50 joyous families and featured them on WE TV and published a book dedicated to Treasuring Everyday Joy. This book is complete with photos and profiles of all 50 families. Leading comedy actress and mother of 3, Alyson Hannigan (CBS’s How I Met Your Mother), kicked off the campaign in honor of treasuring the small joys in one’s life.

“It is so important to treasure everyday moments with your children,” said celebrity mom Alyson Hannigan. “Whether it’s the giggles during bath time or reading with them before bedtime; it’s those simple things that are part of your daily routine which you come to value most as a mom. I never take those moments for granted as they change so much from day-to-day, that each one is a new adventure.”

Alyson HanniganShe has generously signed a few of the TREASURING EVERYDAY JOY™ books and we have one to giveaway along with a basket of Johnson’s products.

This giveaway has ended. Congratulations to Gianna.

BabyBjorn High Chair Giveaway

New York is the happening place for new products, and since I don’t live in New York, and I don’t have a writer that lives in New York, I sometimes miss out on really cool product launches. A few weeks ago, I missed out on the BabyBjorn High Chair launch. I know, I’m not in the babydom anymore, but many of you guys may be and if not, all of us KNOW someone that is or soon will be.

BABYBJORN just introduced their new high chair:

 

The BABYBJÖRN High Chair is the ideal first high chair for children who can sit up on their own, from around five months up until three years. The detachable tray is made from acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS). It has been certified safe for foods and complies with the safety standards for plastics both in Europe (EEC) and the USA (FDA). This product is PVC-free and contains no bisphenol A (BPA), phthalates, cadmium, lead, bromine or chlorine. Moreover, the plastic is recyclable.

The entire process from concept to finished product took about eight years. The BABYBJORN high chair project was put on hold after about two years so that they could trouble-shoot and find the safest solution to hold the child securely in the chair. Still, they forged on and made new prototypes to test with families. The result is the BABYBJÖRN High Chair, a high chair designed to make mealtime more enjoyable and safe.
