I am very excited to announce our latest giveaway! It’s for a $100 Red Envelope Gift Certificate! We loved working with Red Envelope a few months ago for a $50 gift certificate and now we’re working together to give away a larger certificate just in time for the holidays!

Here are a few of my favorite gift ideas:

For Her:

For Him:

key tree catchall

Key Tree Catch All
Practical as well as attractive! The front plate can even be engraved. $34.95

For Him or Her:

story of a lifetime
Story of a Lifetime

From the website, “The large, heavy-bound matte-finish hardcover book chronicles a person’s life by asking questions, from “What is a typical family meal?” to “What was your engagement proposal like?” From the simple to the provocative, it asks almost 500 questions about careers, college, leaving home, parental relationships, raising kids, traditions and milestones.” Sounds great, huh? I would like to have 4 of these! $49.95 Leather bound is $79.95.

Piggy Paint Review & Giveaway!

http://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=515b26f855&view=att&th=12339f46ab569003&attid=0.3&disp=inline&zw

Piggy Paint was founded after Melanie Hurley was painting her two girls nails one day. While painting their nails over a foam paint one of her daughters dropped a glob of polish onto the plate. Shortly after that the polish began bubbling and “eating” through the plate. She decided to test all of her nail polishes that way and found the same result. That is when she made the decision that none of those solvent based polish were going on her daughters nails ever again and she came up with Piggy Paint. Her paint is made from natural ingredients, odorless, hypoallergenic and biodegradable. How cool is that? I love a mompreneur with a fabulous product!

I received a bottle of Piggy Paint in the Candy Coated color and the Piggy Paint Nail Polish Remover. I have to admit that I was skeptical if Piggy Paint Nail Polish Remover would take off my non-Piggy Paint polish but it truly amazed me. It worked as well, if not better than the harsh chemicals I had always used before. I have to mention that my husband LOVED how it didn’t have any odor to it what so ever.

Candy-Coated

As soon as I saw the Candy Coated color of the Piggy Paint I knew it was one I would love. It is dark enough to be noticed on the toes and light enough to look nice on the fingers.

It always puzzles me how nail polish never stays on kid’s nails as well as they do adults. I have my theories but I was excited that Piggy Paint included a tip for that in my package. They suggested letting the polish dry on it’s own then going over it with a hair dryer on low for a few moments. I’m excited to see how this works!

Here is some information that I pulled from the Piggy Paint website:

Why is Piggy Paint™ Nail Polish the safe nail polish choice for children?

  • Non-toxic
  • Odorless
  • Water-based formula
  • Hypoallergenic
  • Fun, vibrant colors
  • Dries to a hard, durable finish

Piggy Paint™ is specially formulated from God’s natural ingredients and dries to a hard, durable finish. There are no toxic chemicals; it’s free of formaldehyde, toluene, phthalates, biphenyl A, ethyl acetate and acetone. Click here to see how our polish compares!

Say good-bye to harsh, smelly chemicals and hello to Piggy Paint™…it’s as Natural as Mud!

Piggy Paint™ Ingredients

Water, water-miscible acrylic resins and thickeners (well below 100 parts per million), glycol ethers. May contain mica, D&C red lake, ultramarine blue, iron and titanium oxide pigments.

Piggy Paint is so gracious to give Beauty4Moms readers a coupon code for 15% off anything on their website (including sale items!). This code expires on Oct. 31, 2009. These would make great stocking stuffers! Your exclusive coupon code is “BEAUTY15L

When you spend over $25 domestic shipping is Free! They ship worldwide.

One luck winner will receive a Coupon Code for $20 from Piggy Paint.

To Enter: Visit Piggy Paint and tell me what you would spend the $20 on if you were the lucky winner! Please note: Each answer must be different from the one before.

Please leave a valid email address so we may contact the winner.

Pocket Purifier Revew & Giveaway!

In today’s world where staying healthy and germ-free is more important than ever, the Pocket Purifier finds itself with a large audience.

Pocket Purifier

Purely Enterprises, makers of the Pocket Purifier, print these claims on their packaging. The purifier uses the same germicidal ultraviolet light (UV-C) technology used in hospitals to sterilize surgical equipment. It also claims to eliminate 99.9% of germs that could cause colds and flu. E-Coli, Salmonella and Staphylococcus are also on the list. To use effectively, you must expose a surface to the germ-killing light for about 10 to 15 seconds.

The Pocket Purifier has many pros. Since it only emits a germ-killing light, there is no need for any sprays. You don’t have to worry about chemicals getting near your food, or worse, around your children. Using a built in 4 watt germicidal ultraviolet light, the Pocket Purifier deactivates the DNA of bacteria, viruses and other pathogens destroying their ability to multiply.

The Pocket Purifier is perfect for people who like to be cautious while on-the-go as well as at home. It’s hand held size makes it great to slip in your purse to take it with you anywhere.

http://www.purelyproducts.com/images/products/pocket_purifier/pp-Pocket-Purifier-logo.png

Features & Benefits:

* Built in 4 watt germicidal ultraviolet light, deactivates the DNA of bacteria, viruses and other pathogens destroying their ability to multiply.
* The specially designed UV-Lid™ helps avoid any harm of ultraviolet light to eyes and skin and also enhances the germ-killing function.
* Suitable for purifying masks, kitchen utensils, telephone sets, nail clippers, scissors, baby toys, pacifiers, cribs, strollers and most everyday items.
* Powered by 4 (AA) batteries for easy carrying and safe usage.


I received a Black Pocket Purifier to review. I love it! It’s adorable, light weight, and I like the built-in flashlight!

Right away I used it on my laptop, toothbrush, and kitchen counter.
Here are some facts about germs that disturbed me:

*Desktops have almost 21,000 germs per square inch and phones more than 25,000 per square inch (compared with a mere 49 per square inch on toilet seats)!

*Highly contagious infectious particles can spray from a sneeze at speeds of up to 200 miles per hour, landing at a distance of three feet from the offender and survive there for over 24 hours! Yuck!

*Women between the ages of 20 and 30 have more colds than men because of the exposure they receive from their children.


Pocket Purifier is warranted for 1-Year after purchase for all parts excluding germicidal UV-C bulb defective in workmanship and materials. Pocket Purifier UV-C germicidal bulb is warranted for 6-months from date of purchase.

To Buy: Visit Purely Products and purchase your very own Pocket Purifier for only $29.95. Available in black or pink.

To Win: Tell me one place you’ll use your Pocket Purifier if you are the winner and follow Beauty4Moms Facebook Page (you must leave me a comment with your fb name or a link showing me you’re following).
