I exclusively pump for my little one and I cannot say enough good things about this Spectra S1 pump. It has not only kept my supply up but has increased it as time went on with it's hospital grade suction. I love how it's a closed system, very hygienic and easy to clean and maintain. I take it everywhere and with the rechargeable battery I can go anywhere, shopping, park, road trips. I just love it and will definitely recommend it to anyone who is in the market for a low price effective breast pump. -

I've finally found a diaper that will last through the night!!!! A little pricey,but well worth it. My son is 2.5 years old, so he eats and drinks alot but still isn't night potty trained yet. All the other diapers I would have to wake up halfway through the night to change him, with this Pampers UnderJam I can finally sleep through the night with no worries! One well rested mama here! -
TRESemmé Texture Compressed Micro Mist Hair Spray Hold Level 1

First off I love how Tresemme is reducing the amount of packaging by reducing the amount of gas per spray by 50%.
Secondly, and the main reason for loving this product is that it is able to tame my flyaways and little baby hair with minimal effort, just a couple of spritz of the Tresemme texture compressed micro mist hair spray hold level 1 then smooth down my flyaways with my hand and voila! No more little flyaways getting into my eyes. Plus it doesn't even look like I used any hairspray at all, the end result is very natural looking.
*I did receive the product to try out but the above is my own true opinion after trying the hair spray out*

My 16 months old son LOVED the apple and strawberry IOGO Nano Pouch and I loved how convenient it was.
He's at a stage where he can independently eat puree from a pouch so this IOGO Nano Pouch came in very handy especially with the resealable lid, I find this much more useful compared to the sticks or the individual little cups of yogurt that can't be resealed because sometimes, I just don't feel like finishing up everything that he doesn't finish. My little one gets his yogurt snack and mommy gets to rest for a couple of minutes!
Overall, even though I received the Nano Pouches as part of ChickAdvisor's #gotitfree promotion but I would definitely be going back to purchase other flavors for my son to try.

I received a box of the Catelli Smart Veggie Spaghetti from Chick Advisor to try out and review.
Overall, it's a good option compared to the regular spaghetti because of the added fiber and vegetable you get from this especially if you have a picky eater at home and you're trying to up their vegetable and fiber intake.
This has a similar concept to the Smart Kraft Dinner that came out a while back, both allowing you to up your veggie and fiber in take while not sacrificing any flavor. These types of products helps make a busy home life easier because I don't feel as bad when I just serve meatball and spaghetti without a side of vegetable.
So thumps up to Catelli!!

I received a box of the Ancient Grains Rotini to try out from Chick Advisor and I was actually pleasantly surprised that my whole family loved it.
Positive: It contains 5 ancient grains and it's higher in fibre than most other pastas, also it's sodium free which is an added bonus.
Negative: I find it needs to cook a little bit longer than the 6 minutes specified on the package in order to get to the same softness as other regular pastas.
For kids I would recommend cooking the pasta directly in the sauce, this way it will soak up more of the flavor from the sauce and they may not notice the slight difference.

Lysol Toilet Bowl Cleaner has a much more pleasant scent compared to others, some brands I have to have the fan on for hours during and after using the cleaner, Lysol the smell is still strong while using it but it doesn't linger afterwards. So I prefer it much better, also it always gets out all the stains (water marks, pink mold) even for toilets that haven't been used for quite some time.
The tilted neck helps out a lot to, it makes aiming for the crevasses a lot easier.
I usually purchase my at Costco when the 4 pack goes on sale, plus they're a bigger bottle compared to Walmart or other grocery stores.

Size: Each sheet is larger than Pampers and Huggies wipes, so in turn I find myself using less sheets each time.
Packaging: More convenient to carry around, and once done you just throw out the whole package. What I usually do is open up a new pack to keep at home, then when I'm down to 1/3 left, I would pop that pack into the diaper bag. Saves me from having to purchase the Huggies to go refillable pouches.
Scent: Scent free
The most important is that the Kirkland wipes don't ripe unlike other brand where I can never get to use a whole sheet.

I would pass on this facial scrub because I find it too harsh for my skin, my skin gets irritated and red from using this. BUT I didn't want to waste the tube, so I use it for my body especially my knees and elbows and it works wonders. It gets all the dead skin off and right after I get out of the shower, I put a few drops of vitamin E oil where I've exfoliated and it's the perfect combo.
Face wise, I would recommend the Biore Acne Clearing Scrub instead, it's not as harsh and with the salicylic acid it helps keep my acne in control as well.
