This year's Mother's Day was extra special for me, as it was the first year, I could celebrate as a mother of two. To make the day even more special, our toddler daughter and her rescue Puppy brother had a little help from Influenster. Handpicked products, for the whole family, came in our mail, and as a family of four, we were so so happy and excited to put the products to test.
"Cherish Voxbox," was a special box of goodies, which were meant for families with both a human child and a furry child, and to me, that gesture sealed the deal. Do you want to know more about the goodies, then let's get started.
As I pen down this long due post on Summer Solstice, I could not stress more about the importance of hydration. As a Mom, I am always trying to encourage my children to keep up their fluid intake, when the weather is so hot and so dry.
Mott's Sensibles Juice was an instant hit with our toddler. In fact, I had a tough time, saving it, until we finally got the necessary pictures done for this post. This might be an addition to the school lunch box, come August. That's a special request from the soon-to-be kindergartener.
Being pet parents, we have been hearing of
Bark Box for some time, but had not tried the service ourselves.
Barkbox is a monthly subscriptions service for your canine child, which comprises of toys and treats. I had been tempted to try it out, I must add, as I had loved the previews which the website showed, for possible monthly products. The next goodie in the box was an adorable RollerBladeToy from BarkBox. An active pup is an understatement for my furry son and toys do not usually last long in our house. They mysteriously vanish. Does it happen in your family too? I loved the quality of the toy and how sturdy it was.
Dad had planned a beautiful Mother's Day weekend, and there was something special for him to try out too. My husband is more of an Eau de toilette kind of a person, but in Summer, he swears by layering it on with a good deodorant. But its always tricky to find a deodorant which does not stain the shirts.
Dove Men's Care Stain Defense Dry Spray claims to be invisible on most known colors, and might soon become a Summer favorite in His side of the vanity.
Last but not the least, were two products meant for Mommy.
Vera Wang's Embrace Perfume and
Pantene Daily Moisture Renewal Foam Conditioner. You can never go wrong with Vera Wang, can you? Embrace treads on the middle ground of floral and fruity notes, with tuberose and mandarin as some of its prominent notes.
I have dry and frizzy hair which is also colored. So I love a good hair care product which can deliver on its promise. In Summer, humidity play havoc and my hair become frizz central.
Pantene Daily Moisture Renewal Foam Conditioner though sounded gimmicky, actually worked quite well on my textured hair. I feel its a good addition in one's travel toiletries bag. I am in India, on a vacation, as I type away this post, and I can tell you that Pantene has been a savior in taming my hair, in this crazy heat and humidity.
So what are your favorite self-care products, in Summer?
Disclaimer: These products were sent to me complimetary, for testing purposes, but the opinions are those of my own.
