With 70 % more gentle detangling, the TangleFix brush assures easy,
gentle styling—for ALL hair types! This cute colored handle-less,
ergonomic design makes TangleFix the perfect brush for moms to quickly
brush through daughter’s hair in the morning!
For Mom: Goody QUIKSTYLE Half-Round Styling Brush (Walmart
and Targey, $11.99) allows you to dry hair while you simultaneously
style it. It comes complete with microfiber bristles that work like a
brush and towel in one- drying hair 30% quicker! Its half round design
also adds volume to your blowout, and it’s lightweight so your arms
don’t get tired during styling.
My Thoughts
These are some awesome brushes. The TangleFix is like a miracle worker. For the first time ever I can brush my three-year old's hair without a fighting match. It glides right through and takes out all the tangles, leaving hair smooth and knot-free. This is a must have for any parent with a little girl, but it works just as well on adult hair too. My hair is fine and always tangles easily. Half the time I would be ripping out hunks when I tried to comb it. Now with this brush. Knots just aren't a problem. And of course my daughter loves the sparkly design.
The Quickstyle is an interesting brush as well. It works just as well on tangles, leaving hair soft and subtle. As far as the microfiber, that works pretty well, just don't expect your hair to be bone dry after using it. For me, it definitely did suck up some moisture, but my hair was far from dry after using it. It did dry faster than it normally does, which is a great bonus for someone like me who refuses to use a hair dryer. It also offers a sturdy handle and bristles that can comb through even my teen daughter's very thick hair, making it a good choice for all hair types.
Best face forward with Aubrey
For Kids: Protect little one’s skin with Aubrey Natural Sun SPF 30 Unscented Spray (health food stores nationwide or online at www.aubrey-organics.com.,
$15.95). This convenient spray bottle allows for moms to easily apply
sunscreen to kids in the morning. It absorbs quickly and without the
greasy residue of some drugstore brands. Plus, it’s water resistant so
kids won’t sweat it all off during recess!
For Mom: Improve the look and feel of dry skin with Aubrey Revitalizing Therapy Serum (health food stores nationwide or online at www.aubrey-organics.com.,
$13.63). This antioxidant serum contains pure, golden Rosa Mosqueta oil
to help improve skin texture and replenish moisture. It also has a rich
source of natural trans-retinoic acid and is high in linoleic, linoleic
acids, and vitamin C.
My Thoughts
Even though summer is over, it doesn't mean its time to put the sunblock away. My kids go outside every day at recess and soccer season is in full swing, so we are still using sunscreen on a daily basis. Aubrey Natural Sun is a great choice for several reasons. First of all, its organic and that is a big plus all on its own. The one I tried is 30 SPF and the strong formula lasts through the whole school day. Of course if you're involved in any water activities, you should reapply even though it is water resistant for up to 40 minutes. The spray bottle allows for quick and easy coverage, but the best part about this formula is that there is absolutely no scent. No chemical smell, no coconut oil fragrance. It goes on clean and even and does its job with no odor and no greasy residue. Its the perfect sunscreen for everyday use.
I also tried out the Aubrey Revitalizing Therapy Mask and it's definitely a treat for all skin types. Made with only all natural and organic ingredients, it didn't irritate my skin at all. The mask is a cool gel formula that tingles as it touches your skin. You can feel it tightening as you wait the allotted five minutes. After using it for a full week, my skin definitely feels softer and more nourished. I can't say I see any difference in firmness, but I am still happy with the results and plan to keep using it on a regular basis.

My Thoughts
Bodycology loves to keep us smelling sweet and the Enchanted Forest Fragrance Mist definitely lives up to its name. The light scent is perfect for my daughter, who is in junior high, because it's not too overpowering or perfumey, but adults will enjoy the blend of raspberries, lemon sorbet, and musk just as much. The spray bottles makes for even coverage and its cool and refreshing when you spritz it against your skin. Th best part though, is that it leaves behind a light dusting of sparkles. Both the shimmer and the fragrance are long lasting. Just a few squirts in the morning and you're good to go all day long.
The Bodycology Pure White Gardenia Nourishing Body Cream is an affordable way to keep your skin soft and smelling sweet. This lotion goes on smooth and leaves behind no greasy residues. I'm usually not a big fan of flowery scents, but this one is not overpowering. It leaves behind just a hit of fragrance as you go about your day, but it keeps your skin hydrated from morning to night with only one application. The 8oz bottle should last for at least a few months. When so many skin care items cost a fortune, its nice to find one with a reasonable price tag of only $3.99.
