Flowerz in Her Hair, Review and Giveaway!

I was recently introduced to a great place online for ordering bows, and other fun hair accessories (and bracelets!) for girls, Flowerz in Her Hair.  As a girly - girl myself, I absolutely adore having daughters to play dress up with, and I love that they (for the most part) enjoy having their hair fixed and wearing dresses and all of that fun girly stuff.  I am impressed with the selection (and I love the Heart Babies Collection), and I really appreciate that orders over $10 receive free standard shipping. 

The owner of Flowerz in Her Hair created her business because after having two sweet and adorable little boys, she was blessed with a daughter and was excited to be able to doll her up.  Shortly before the birth of her daughter she began to search for hair accessories and was dissapointed with the poor selection and low quality items she was finding, and not impressed with the high prices.  Her solution?  Make her own!  After many compliments and being told she should sell her creations, she decided to begin her business.  She sincerely hopes that you enjoy her products and that they help your little one to look like a princess, with Flowerz in Her Hair, every day.  

Amy was kind enough to send us a few items for review.  She selected for us a pink flower clip with a jeweled center and a sophisticated black bow, as well as a white nylon super stretch headband, and a pink crocheted stretch headband.  I love the versatility of everything, you can mix and match which bow or clip you choose to put on which headband, or even choose to wear the headbands plain...or not at all and just choose to put a flower or bow directly in the hair.  They are also stretchy enough that *I* can wear them if I want to.  I'm tempted to borrow the black bow one of these days.  I'm sure my girls wouldn't mind, and I think they'd be delighted to see mommy dressed up in their bows too.  These items are high quality and as long as they are taken care of, they will last.  We are certainly no strangers to bows and headbands, but I have never used flower clips before, and I think I might have a new addiction.  They're so cute!

Flowerz in Her Hair has offered up a $15 e-gift certificate to one lucky Flip Flop Reviews reader!

Purex Crystals - Review and Giveaway!

As a Purex Insider, I was one of the first to try the new Purex Complete Crystals Softener.  I received a sample size of Fresh Spring Waters, enough to do four loads of laundry.  I liked it so much, I went out and bought a full size Lavender Blossom.  I know I have said before that I am a scent person.  I have been known to spend forever in the aisle with the cleaning supplies at the store smelling ALL of the detergents and softeners before I decide what to buy.  I have to say that these did not disappoint, I have not tried Tropical Splash yet, but I really liked Spring Waters and I *love* Lavender Blossom.  So much that I even filled up a reed diffuser bottle with them and put it in my bathroom, haha.  It's on a really high shelf (so no worries about the girls getting to it), and not only does it smell great, but it looks pretty too. 

Purex Complete Crystals Softener is unique in that it is in a solid, crystals, form.  This 92% natural fabric softener gets clothes smelling fresh and clean for weeks.  Most traditional softeners are oil based, and actually coat your fabrics with an oily residue (that can accumulate!  Have you ever pulled something out of the dryer only to inspect it and see that it looks like there is an oil stain?  Wondered where it came from?), but Purex Complete Crystals work differently to actually infuse the fabrics with their great fragrances.  These new Crystals are safe for your laundry and will not harm, wear down, or discolor your fabrics the way some liquid softeners can.  They even preserve the flame retardant benefits of children's clothing, retain the ability of towels to absorb, help to keep white clothing from graying or yellowing (another issue that can arise from traditional softeners), and retain the wicking ability of athletic wear. 

You add Purex Complete Crystals in with your laundry as soon as you put it in the washing machine, so there is no waiting until the rinse cycle to add liquid softener, and since it is in a solid form, spills are not really an issue (if they do happen, they're easily cleaned up!).  It is also safe for both standard and HE washers!

Purex Complete Crystals are available in three fragrances:

Fresh Spring Waters, Lavender Blossom, and Tropical Splash.



You can find these new Purex Complete Crystals in food, drug, and mass retailers worldwide for a suggested retail price of $3.99 to $5.99!

Excited to try these out?  Enter to win a free bottle!  Two lucky winners will each win a coupon for a free 28oz bottle!

Mandatory Entry:

-Have you tried these?  Tell me your favorite scent of Purex Crystals!  If you haven't tried these, which scent would you choose if you win?

EdenFantasys Highlight

I don't know about you, but I love when my husband gives me a massage.  Well, maybe you don't like it when *my* husband gives you a massage (I don't think I'd like that much either!), haha, but I don't think I know a single person who doesn't like getting a massage.  I actually don't mind giving massages either, the movement can be relaxing.

I am a scent person, though, so I really enjoy setting the relaxing mood with candles and using a nice scented lotion, massage oil, or even recently I tried a massage candle.  I was surprised that the massage candle was so easy to work with and I loved that the oil was slightly warm. 

EdenFantasys has a fantastic selection of items to aid in setting the mood for and giving or recieving a fabulous massage.  This Massage Therapy Kit by Kama Sutra is on my wish list. 

Check out EdenFantasys for more great sensual massage products!

*I will recieve a gift card in exchange for this post about EdenFantasys.
