A VedaBaby Bath Is Like A Mini Spa Treatment

Lisa Estall — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 17:10:00 GMT

I discovered this baby skincare collection VedaBaby and really like the products. Inspired by using ancient ayurvedic principles and herbal remedies, VedaBaby is the creation of a pediatrician who wanted to provide parents with products containing the purest ingredients for their babies. I've been using... Shampoo and Body Wash for my baby and it feels like she's getting a mini spa treatment since the smell is really calming.

It's $40 a jar but if you want to splurge, it would make a nice treat for your children.

The Miracle Claims of the Belly Bandit

SunnyChanel — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 14:19:00 GMT

Not since the heyday of the Ginsu knife set or the Flowbee haircutting machine, has a list of miracle product claims been so tempting! Check out what the Belly Bandit, the “abdominal compression binder” that tightens and shrinks that bulging post preggers belly, claims to be able to accomplish. If even half of these are true, then I’d buy stock in the company today. What can it do for you, you ask? It “Improves Posture”, “Adds Abdominal Support and Comfort after a C-Section”, “Helps Minimize Stretch Marks”, “Reduces Discomfort”, “Helps Lose Inches Faster”, “Accelerates the Healing Process”, “Reduces Pressure on Back and Legs”, “Helps to Minimizes Swelling”, and “Provides Support while Breastfeeding” and last but not least “Restores Confidence”. And not only that, but it comes in fashion forward peek a boo prints like a Pucci like paisley or a Burberry like plaid, along with a tiger or zebra pattern among others for $49.95 or you can opt for the eco-friendly plain bamboo version for $59.95. It’s a bit late for me to get one, since I had my baby over two years ago, but I’d be curious if any of your have given it a try?

The Babble Review: Body Balms by Least Likely 2 Breed

Gwynne Watkins — Tue, 23 Oct 2007 18:20:00 GMT

One of my co-workers looked horrified when these tins of ointment, with quasi-tasteless names like "Bad Ass Booty Balm" and "Mother Effer's Va-J-J Jelly," arrived in our office. Clearly, this colleague does not receive weekly samples with cutesy names like "Mama's Love Honey Tummy Bunny Rub." I say these products are a refreshing, and very funny, change. The ointments are shipped inside a diaper, which is a little weird, but apparently it's a functional alternative to packing peanuts. Every product has a refreshing, all-natural ingredient list, heavy on the coconut oil, lanolin and beeswax. The texture is pretty much what you'd expect from those ingredients, and the essential-oil scents are delightful: the nipple rub smells of citrus, geranium and cloves, while the diaper balm smells like a bakery. (The Va-J-J jelly will make your nether regions smell like a coconut, which is a personal choice.) Best of all, they're supercheap for all-natural products: only $6 a pop.
