Free Happy Healthy Party

I came home from a long hard day at work to find a big box of awesomeness awaiting me! It was the Seventh Generation Party box that contained all kinds of free goodies and things for a fun and healthy party which I had received for free. Happy to find great product samples, wildflower seeds and a few large full size items for prizes, like diapers and baby wipes! There were fun activities and discussions to be had with all the information that was provided on how companies do not need to disclose all the ingredients they use. I, as well as most of my party goers were happy for the chance to try more products and receive money saving coupons for the great products that Seventh Generation has. Products that we know the ingredients for!

It is a great thing that Seventh Generation gave these party packs out for free to spread their word and also to let more people try and see how great their products are. Not to mention, turn many nonbelievers into believers in using all natural, healthy products rather than chemical filled ones!

Companies NOT Required to List All Ingredients!

Thanks to Seventh Generation I get to host a party for free on being healthy, eco-friendly and creating the best environment for our family. The kit they are sending me is said to include a range of discussion topics, including information on improving indoor air quality, managing pests in the garden, and what produce is best to buy organic, and much more.  

The biggest thing though that I have been learning is that cleaning product companies are NOT required to list all ingredients on the package because there are currently no regulations.  We, then do not know what all we releasing into our family environment. Many of the ingredients may not be healthy for us to be around as often as we should be cleaning!

We need to let the companies know we want them to #comeclean about the ingredients in their products! If we are lucky, we even encourage them to use better, safer and healthier products for our families!

Maya Rudulph's great video!

I have been part of the Seventh Generation community and love the information I get here for not only eco-friendly products but products that are safer to use. I recommend watching this video with Maya Rudulph for great information as well as humor on safer feminine products for us to use! Also visit www.seventhgeneration.com/comeclean for more information and tips!

#ComeClean

Thanks to Seventh Generation I have been able to use cleaner products that are more natural and eco friendly. They were great to send us a free coupon book with savings to help us save on their great products. Being able to know exactly what is in the products we buy and use is very important for our safety and our future. We need to be more vigilant in the products we choose to use whether on our property or on ourselves. I want to know I am using the most natural and healthy products for myself and my family. This is why I am joining Seventh Generation on demanding full disclosure of the ingredients in the products we use!

Rachel Ray Nutrish Zero Grain Voxbox!

I have to say that I love receiving new samples, especially from Influenster! In the long run it saves my family money as we are able to try products with no cost to us before buying full size products if we like the products. Usually samples are well sample/travel sized but it seems like with Influenster the samples are full size most often which is great because it gives us the ability to try some of the products out long term rather than just one use.

This is especially great when it comes to cat food, since our cat is extremely picky on what food she will eat. Influenster sent us a bag of Rachel Ray Nutrish Zero Grain cat food to try. So we started with slowly adding some of this into our cat, Cleo's current kibble and what we found was being as picky as she is - she was picky out only this new food and not eating her normal kibble. Usually I would have been concerned as I know how switching straight to new food can make them sick but she did not experience any adverse affects from eat just the new food.

It has been a few days of trying this food and she seems to like it a lot. We will be continuing to use it until the bag is gone and then will see if we will be buying it for our cat to continue to have. For now we will still be mixing it in our current food for the cat and hope she will finish off both before needing to buying more food in the future!

I know not all cats need grain free food and some do not like them but our cat, who really has no reason to need grain free seems to love it! I will recommend this to others to try and see if it is something that would be great for your cat or if your cat would just like it!

Country Crock Voxbox

Influenster is one of the great sites that I use to write reviews and try new products before buying them. One of the newest samples I was sent was a great coupon for a free container of Country Crock to #Makeitmyown. In other words using country crock to bake cookies and using a standard cookie recipe but making it our own by adding to the recipe with whatever ingredients we wanted. So we did, and the cookies turned out great! The cookie dough without our additives was nice and buttery tasting but when we added in our many different ingredients to make it more of a "monster cookie" in essence it was even better! I recommend using Country Crock if you prefer margarine instead of butter, but even though they turned out great I still will probably stick with regular butter because it seems to be cheaper, especially since we get it in bulk!

KISS True Volume Lashes

I recently received KISS True Volume Lashes and KISS Strip Lash adhesive with Aloe. I have never worn fake lashes before, so it was a new experience to try them. What I found is that knowing the correct and easy way to apply them is key, so I want to provide some easy steps for anyone to follow if they wish to try them.

How to apply KISS True Volume Natural Plump lashes:

1. Check fit: Lay lash on top of your natural lash and then trim if needed.
2. Next apply Kiss adhesive to lash band; making sure to wait 30 seconds for the adhesive to become slightly tacky and appear clear.
3. Finally apply lashes along your natural lash line. Make sure to hold in place; this allows the adhesive to dry completely.

*There are many different types of adhesive out there and from what I was reading when looking using these lashes is that it is best to use the adhesive made by the same brand of the false lashes you plan to use.
