November 10th, 2010For Christmas

I’ve been researching for fat burning exercises to share to my friend and on my quest, I stumbled into this product instead.

It’s a wooden table for a laptop or to be used to serve breakfast on bed. :-) Looks nice ey? I think I can place this beside my bed, to hold some few things and my laptop/netbook. I think among other things (????that many??? lol), I’d love to have this for Christmas. Yes, for C hristmas. So friends, if you’re wondering what to wrap for me, then there’s your answer. :-) And it’s not expensive too.

August 5th, 2010Huggies for now

Before I check an online auction, here’s my post for the day.

With the new baby, new items are now added on my regular grocery list. One of these is the diaper. Okay, I have bought some cloth diapers prior to the baby’s birth but I still buy the disposable ones for reason of convenience. And if it’s disposable, the  only brand I trust is EQ (dry), which  I have used  with my first born.That said,  it’s just a bit disappointing to see that the EQ Dry for newborn doesn’t perfectly fit my baby. Now that is really a little issue and I could forget about that…but because of that, I got curious with the fit of newborn diapers from other brands.

And so I bought newborn diapers from Huggies and Pampers. And this I found out: Huggies is a much better fit compared with the other two brands. This is because the Huggies NB diaper are designed for babies weighing 4kg and below. Among the three, Pampers has the biggest NB diaper, although like EQ, their NB diapers should fit 5-kg and below babies (according to label).

March 7th, 2010Indigo: Body Wash

Photobucket Here is my baby’s (oh he’s gonna be upset for calling him a baby!) new body wash. But okay this is not only my son’s but definitely mine as well. :-)

I don’t really have anything to say about this 2-in-1 product (shampoo and bodywash) except that I LOVE IT. Alaveet on my son and on myself. Its lavender scent is so mild and sweet and purrfect. Alaveet so much that I tried using it as a feminine wash. And so now I’m using it from head to toe. That said, I swear I’m going to order more of this one.

Ingredients: Triple Distilled Water, Castille Soap, Glycerine, Olive Oil, Vitamin E, Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) essential oil

My rate? It’s a 5!

I never really  use sprays in the room apart from Lysol from time to time. But I have already stopped using that in our room since I-can-longer-remember-when. Twas a long time, really. I do use insect spray once in a blue moon (when it’s really necessary) but I do so with so much caution. 

Now in one of my internet shopping days, I  found a  spray that intrigued me. Because it is 100% natural, it can be safely used on infant rooms, they said. So I thought, okay I have to try it. 

Long story short, now I’ve already tried it and I like it a lot. It indeed smells good, although I must say that the first spray smells much like a herbal medicine stuff. :-)  After a sec or two, the smell just turns into a mild  refreshing scent. It doesn’t stick to your linens and bed for long but I’m all OK with that since I won’t be able to stand if its smell-or any fragrance on that matter- would linger long.  I cannot say much on its lulling effect though because I am always an easy sleeper (I sleep anytime and anywhere if I need to) and I don’t need anything to lull me to sleep. 

Ingredients (label) : Foodgrade alcohol, purified water, Lavender and Chamomile essential oil

This can also be used as a hand sanitizer, toy cleanser, yoga mat spray or even as a mild cologne (yeah, I used it like a cologne too)!

Before I check some fish food, I’d give my rate for Indigo Sleepyhead Room and Linen Spray. In a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the highest, I’d rate it a 4!

March 2nd, 2010More came!

Oh I wasn’t able to post about this…but I received another package sometime end of February. Big package! Oh what can it be this time? No, I couldn’t think of anything else - even the plumbing fixtures in our kitchen that needs attention-not! I honestly couldn’t wait to open it that as soon as I signed the receipt slip, I immediately run to get a scissors and check the contents!

Pure excitement! Lookie, lookie there are are lots inside! Woooooow!

Ha! Expect more reviews  coming!

Photobucket I guess it’s time to start my series of quick reviews on Indigo products I have ordered.  So before I check some camcorder models, and lemme start my reviews with the Dance of Life Massage Oil.

A  blend of peppermint and lavender oils in  (obviously) a virgin coconut oil base, this invigorating concoction is actually not hard to love. It’s a bit greasy than a massage oil I previously used but it’s sweet and minty scent is so much milder and definitely good calming blanket to a stressul day. After a couple of minutes of application, I can easily identify the familiar scent of coconut oil but I don’t mind at all -because coconut oil scent somehow gives me an odd sense of security!

Ingredients (label) : Lavender, Peppermint essential oils, Virgin coconut oil

And because this massage oil has an all-natural ingredients, I am do not only feel secured but safe as well. In a scale of 5 being the highest, I give this product a 3.5.

November 21st, 2009Didn’t Know…

Every day is a really an opportunity to learn and discover new things. Like today, I learned about little things called appetite suppressants. When I first read it, I went like “Is there really such a thing?”  because it’s my first time to have encoountered such a product. I mean, I know of weight loss products but not appetite suppressants, although as an afterthought, maybe some weight loss products contains properties that could taper the appetite but I had no idea. Until now.
