Teaching Kids How To Do Laundry With The Purex PowerShot! #PurexInsiders #Giveaway @Purex #Ad

    I've always been a firm believer in empowering my children to be independent.  This has been due to the fact that I want them to be self-sufficient in the future and because I am a full-time Working Mom so everyone has to contribute to the household chores.  Although I always do the bulk of the laundry, I have been teaching my older son how to load the washing machine and the dryer in order to wash his school uniforms on a weekly basis.     One of the greatest challenges of teaching him how to wash and dry clothes has been helping him to gauge how much detergent to pour out depending on the amount of clothing that he is washing.  I've noticed that he sometimes uses too much because I see suds in the machine even after the load is done washing.  Recently, I have figured out the solution to this problem since Purex PowerShot detergent does the measuring for you!     New Purex PowerShot detergent makes our lives more simple because it takes the guesswork out of our laundry routine … [Read more...]

Clean And Soft Hands For Your Entire Family! @Dial #PurexInsiders #Giveaway #Ad

*This post was written by me on behalf of Purex as a Purex Insider.  I received complimentary product samples to facilitate this review.  All opinions are 100% mine.       In our home, we go through a lot of hand soap.  Between having two active boys and my husband's home improvement projects, a ton of hand washing goes on regularly.  When I look for hand soaps to purchase and keep in the bathroom, I definitely have specific criteria for the qualities that I am searching for.     Since we wash our hands so often, it is important that the soap we use is gentle yet effective because we don't want to dry out or irritate our skin.  Dial offers an elegant, scented, premium soap that not only cleans very well but also moisturizes and has a delicious scent.  I've come to expect this kind of quality from Dial products over the years and their Deep Cleansing Liquid Hand Soap does not disappoint.     We tried the Dial Coconut Lime Verbena and Water Blossoms Deep Cleansing … [Read more...]

*I participated in this campaign on behalf of Dial as a Purex Insider. I received a promotional item to facilitate this review and as a thank you item for participating.  All opinions are my own.       We love using body wash when we take showers.  There is just something about lathering up your skin and filling the bathroom with a refreshing scent of clean.  The problem is that some body washes are very harsh and dry up our skin.  Since all four of us have sensitive skin, we are always on the lookout for body washes that will moisturize our skin and be kind to it.     As a Purex Insider, I have the privilege of trying out all of their new products as soon as they come out.  I was very excited to find out that their new Dial Vitamin Boost Body Wash was being introduced with the promise that it gives your skin a daily boost of vitamins.  That sounded great to me because more vitamins mean healthier and moisturized skin.     Its advanced formula contains a Vitamin … [Read more...]

Soft Scrub 4 In 1 Toilet Care Helps You Stop Scrubbing! #Purex

This post is written by me on behalf of Soft Scrub. I received a product sample to review. All opinions are 100% mine.     You guys have no idea how much time I spend cleaning the bathroom, especially living in a house full of men!  Every single time I turn around I am down on my knees cleaning the floor around the toilet, scrubbing the sink and tub, and picking up bath toys.  Unfortunately, the bathroom is the one room in the house that gets dirty fairly quickly due to being in constant use.     In the past I've tried out various cleaners to try to keep the toilet bowl fresh in between major bathroom cleanings.  The purpose of this was not only good hygiene but also that I got tired of constantly having to scrub the toilet all the time to keep the bowl clean and odor-free.  Most of the products I used in the past either dissolved too quickly due to frequent flushing or stopped smelling good after a few uses.  At the end of the day, I found myself right back where I originally … [Read more...]
