Happy Mother's Day!

Not every product we review here at Kid Buy Products is for our children, but we are Kid Buy Products after all which means that almost every review is about products we wouldn't need if it weren't for our kids. Today, we're taking a break from thinking about our children and thinking about ourselves for a change. We have four awesome products to share with you as well as a nice little giveaway to celebrate our one day of the year, so keep reading!

So, I lied just a little in the intro. The first product I wanted to share today is specifically designed for moms. In your pre-baby days, I'm guessing you either didn't have a need for a product to give you the glow that only comes with a full night of rest, or you had the time for making up your face so no one would know that you stayed out dancing until all hours! Rosy Glow Beauty Company was founded to help new moms feel better about themselves as they care for their newborns or even for moms with older children who just don't have the time for a complicated beauty routine every morning. I fall into the latter category. My kids are pretty much sleeping through the night (finally!), but that doesn't mean that I have time for making up my face before we head to the mall or the park or the grocery store in the morning. I love the Get Your Glow Back Eyes and the Rosy Glow Lips for a quick little pick-me-up for my face. I don't know if I look better, but I feel better about myself with just a touch of lip gloss and some moisturizing cream under my eyes. Plus, I'm not wearing any heavy makeup that will sweat off at the park in the afternoon. The Baby Your Face wipes have been invaluable lately as I've had to start wearing sunscreen again. I'm terrible at finding the energy to wash my face before bed, but with the wipes, I just wipe my face and I'm done! You can buy each product individually for about what you would pay for high-end skin care at a department store, or if you have a new mom you want to pamper, Rosy Glow Beauty sells a Get Your Glow Back Pack with all three products and a sleep mask all attractively packaged together in a handy cosmetic bag perfect for travel.

Up next is a product from a mom and daughter run store called Tatutina. They make the most beautiful hand-crafted items, from hand-painted wall pegs and wooden letters to hand-knit sweaters. I got the opportunity to experience the quality and beauty of their items with their one-of-a-kind Take Out Menu boxes. Now that we have kids, we tend to stay in and eat carryout as opposed to packing up our darling children at dragging them to a restaurant. The problem was where to keep all the menus? With the Take Out Menu box, now when I'm too lazy to cook dinner, I know just where to go to find a hot meal. The box is super cute and looks very attractive sitting out on my desk right next to the phone! The box would make a fantastic gift for any busy mom in your life, just stick a gift certificate for a local restaurant inside!

Good ol' number three~ Thymes Bath, Body & Home products. We Minnesotans are lucky to know about this brand already, but I hope I am able to introduce some of you to this wonderful shop.

Thymes Naia Bath and Body products are a fabulous new addition to the Thymes “Momma-gets-to-take-care-of-herself-too” lines of products. Naia is a flowery mix of water lily and cyclamen and a bit of citrus. I only smell the flower, but I trust the Thymes people.

I’ve gotten to use the new Naia line and have loved the body lotion quite a bit. It is a thick lotion and I have used it primarily for my baby-bath-giving hands that we Moms know need extra TLC. The Triple-Milled Soap is my next favorite because I love having a nice smelling soap in my guest bath. The smell from this bar is light and divine. The bath gel is fragrant like the lotion and should give you a nice, day-long perfumey smell. My next-door-cube-mate could smell the lotion on me, liked it, and did not find it overwhelming. Nice!

Also, I’ve tried the Thymes bubble baths before and love them. The Thymes bath products are nicely scented from a wide range of “ingredients”, or as the Thymes people say, “botanicals”. You are sure to find one that will please you.

Lastly, let’s talk pure relaxation. Who does not like a nice soak in the bath with a scented candle burning? Moms, these Tocca candles are top of the line. They are fragrant, but not overwhelming. You do not have to wear the smell like a perfume; you can just be surrounded by it. That’s nice for those of us who have sensitive skin.

Tocca candles are in a simple, clear glass container which will not be noticeable or gaudy in your home. So, on top of smelling nice, they are pretty too. You will find a scent to match your preference with 25 options ranging from floral to fruity to exotic locales.

These Tocca candles have a 60 hour burning time! That is an amazing value for the designer price. I say indulge~ better yet, enter our giveaway to get one of your own from us KBP Moms!
