Mama’s Experience

newest

Laline is such an amazing luxury brand. They make the most beautiful and wonderful smelling products. Everything they touch just turns into lovely feminine perfection. From their baby products to makeup, everything is delicate and pretty. They focus on products that will improve not only your mood, but also your life.

Dead Sea Salts

Scientists have been studying the Dead Sea and its contents for years. Its an amazing phenomena that has a “salinity of around 30%, the Dead Sea contains a much higher salt concentration than average sea water. However, the main difference in Dead Sea salts lies in the contents of the salt.” – Laline Blog

The main findings have shown us:

  1. It can slow the aging of your skin
  2. It strengthens your bones, teeth and nails
  3. It reduces the dryness of skin
  4. It protects against acne

Check out the article Laline wrote for more about the Dead Sea and its salts, which are a primary ingredient in a bunch of their products.

Box Bath Bomb – Ocean

bomb1

I love baths. Period. End of sentence. As a mom, its some of the only alone time I will ever get. It is how like to unwind and relax after a crazy day. Bath bombs are a fun way to make that moment even more special. The scents, the feeling it leaves on your skin, the color of the water, the whole experience just elevates my mood.

Laline’s bath bombs are hearts of salt which will dissolve when placed in water. As it dissolves it will slowly turn your water into the color of the bomb and simultaneously released the scent infused in the salt. This is a real treat and makes the best stocking stuffer for any women in your life.

 

Monoi Body Scrub

Laline body scrubs have so many benefits. Its main ingredient is Dead Sea Salts, which as I mentioned above, are extremely fabulous for you. Helping aid your skin in healing, strengthening and moisture. Using their body scrubs you can restore your bodies natural shine. The Monoi Body Scrub will deep clean your skin using natural minerals, but also moisture it using using avocado and grape seed oils. Once you are out of the bath or shower, having just washed using the Monoi Body Scrub, you will immediately feel how different your skin is. Your skin will be smooth, feeling extremely soft and moist like its never been before.

To use: gently massage onto wet skin with circular motions. Rinse thoroughly. This product is not for use on your face.

Vanilla Patchouli Fluffy Body Soap

fluffy body soap pic

I cannot get over how amazing this Fluffy Body Soap smells, seriously guys, it’s almost addictive. It has this light sweetness to it. Not a heavy thick sweet like maple syrup, but a soft and calm sweetness that only a touch of vanilla can provide. It lingers in the background, creating a relaxing environment. I am not into perfumes. When I was pregnant with both my children all perfumes became a turn off for me. I like things that smell nice, don’t get me wrong, but I am so much more sensitive to smells now. That being said, I love how this lingers. Typically a lingering smell can cause headaches and light-headiness in me, but not the Laline products. They use just the perfect amount of scents to create a lasting but never offensive product.

This fluff is made for a special soaping experience. It comes out in a creamy cloud consistency which melts on your skin as you bathe. The Vanilla Patchouli Fluffy Body Soap is infused with Aloe Vera and vitamin E to help nourish your skin which cleansing.

 

When you are writing your Christmas list this year, be sure to add Laline products to it! You will not be disappointed with your decision.

Momo Baby T-Strap Leather Shoes – Train (First Walker & Toddler)

 

Train MomoBaby

train design MomoMomoBaby’s train shoes are too cute for words! My son, like most other toddler boys, is obsessed with trains. Choo-choo this and choo-choo that. He points them out, makes the noises, gets excited when he see’s them, you get the idea. These shoes have the most beautiful and child friendly train design. They are simple enough and not cluttered or over-designed. They have just the right about of detail, making the shoe fun for the child, but also simple enough to match most outfits.

MomoBaby shoes are made to be worn. So many beautiful children’s shoes are too difficult to walk in, have no support, or are all-for-looks. That is the beauty of MomoBaby, they are comfortable, supportive and fun.

This shoe features train and track designs on not only the toe, but also the inside and outside parts of the shoe. No matter which direction you look you will get that fun, beautiful design.

Momo Grow Leather Ballet Flat Shoes – Ally (Toddler & Little Girl)

Holiday dress shoes MomoBaby


These shoes are called the Ally and they are going to be your go-to holiday shoe this season. For Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, you will be using these shoes for the next several months and are worth every penny. They are ballet-flat style so little girls feel super special wearing them. They are gold, which will match practically every outfit you will be putting her in this fall, and they have a frilly toe which adds a fun childish twist to it. They have a beautiful gold glitter-ish shine to them but it is NOT glitter that will be falling off and making you want to pull your hair out. Girls love glitter, but as a mom I think it’s the worst! It gets everywhere and is impossible to clean up. These shoes give them that exciting glittery glow without the headache. So moms, don’t worry, MomoBaby has your back.

Theses shoes are actually leather based, which gives them a super cozy feel as well as a highly durable shoe. It’s really important to protect your leather shoes so I will make sure these are well looked after!! Your daughter can play, run, and jump like her normal self without you worrying about instant damage and scuffing. The elastic on top keeps her foot in place but it soft so it wont irritate her foot whether she has on socks, tights or leggings. The bottom has a rubber sole which helps prevent slipping and falling, which happens so often with lesser quality shoes. If you are looking to bless a child with a pair of new shoes this holiday season you will not go wrong with MomoBaby.

Nunamoochie Review

Nunamoochie Review

Who is Nunamoochie?

logo

Nunamoochie makes beautiful baby wraps for everyday baby wearing. With so many baby carriers out on the market, it can be easy to get overwhelmed and know sure who you can trust. I can tell you with confidence that you can trust Nunamoochie. This business is run by a husband and wife team who pour their love and sweat into their business to ensure you are using only the best for your baby wearing experience.

Colleen & Tanni are husband and wife as well as the founders and owners of Nunamoochies. Back in 2013 the company was officially launched due to their family connections in India. Tanni has family who live in India and with his connections, they could find honest materials at a cost that would be affordable to the consumers. Tanni’s brother, Gurjit and his wife Aman run the India side of the business. They make sure that all the dyes are natural and safe. Aman seams all the wraps herself and even sews all of the ring slings! A real family business.

While the company does not have a standard stock print, or an official brand print, I asked Colleen what her favorite prints are. Her all time favorite is Mehndi, “I just love the design and it’s so meaningful to our family. Tanni’s cousin, who did my henna (mehndi) for our wedding, is the one who drew up the design for us. It’s repeatable in every direction and it just blows my mind that she was able to make that design with a pencil and paper”. I agree, the print is not only super original but it is lovely too. Being that it has a deeper meaning, I can see why it would be her favorite. Her current favorite is Anya, since it’s named after her baby girl, “I realized when I was pregnant with her that all of our designs were either boyish or gender neutral, so I decided I needed some pink in my life.  Also, the colors are meant to mimic a tequila sunrise, which is a drink I haven’t had in a long time but used to love!”

Sea Glass Wrap

Service

I was blow away by the amazing customer service that Nunamoochie has. They are helpful, kind and quick if you have any questions or concerns with their products and brand. So many times your emails can get buried or pushed aside. Not with Nunamoochie. They sincerely love when people reach out to them. This makes them really stand out for me.

Wear

This wrap is floppy right out of the mailbox! I am so shocked at how easy this wrap is to work with. So many other wraps I have tried are stiff and take months to really ‘break in’. I can feel the texture slightly in this design, but it is very silky to the touch. On a scale of tough to work to creamy like milk, this wrap is creamy like milk.

14

The middle marker – used to find the center – is clearly marked on both the top and bottom rail. I love this feature. Being that this wrap is a palindrome in design, I can wear it either direction and still find the middle marker clearly. The markers are very small and are in no way annoying like some other middle markers.  My older child doesn’t like when a tag will rub against her when in a wrap and I do not need to worry about this with a Nunamoochie wrap.

The wrap I received was a size 6. It is true to a stand size 6 in length compared to other wraps. The ends are slightly tapered to make the tie offs easy and less bulky. The taper is not extremely dramatic, which makes this a great wrap for fluffier people. This way you have more full panel to wrap with and you still get the smooth and less bulky tie off. I am really happy with how this wrap is cut/designed.

16

The wraps are all finished by Colleen’s sister-in-law over in India, so you can rest assured that the edges are going to be spot on and up to their high standards. They tired to hire out other people to finish the wraps edging but they were not the quality of work they would want to put their name on. So instead they just do it themselves! That kind of dedication and personal touch really makes Nunamoochie stand out.

In my photos I am wearing my 3 year old daughter that is approx 32 lbs. I wore her for over an hour the first time using the wrap and it never dug into my shoulders or back. She was able to pull the top rail over her head, something she loves to do when upset, and I did not loose my snug fit. It has a great stretch for wear but only diagonally for safety.

This is a great beginner wrap. The prices range from $120 and goes up based on size (sizes 5, 6 & 7 have an up charge). Nunamoochie’s wraps vary in prince and can be as low as $109! This is such a great deal for such a quality wrap.

More about Nunamoochie

I asked Colleen how often are new prints released: “There isn’t a set schedule.  We did 4 designs the first year: Elephant Ears and Mehndi were the first.  Then Year of the Horse and SciFi.  We had leftover black & white (natty) thready from SciFi, so we decided to try the handwoven and that’s where Retro came into play.  Retro came out last year, followed by our second handwoven, Anya.  The 3rd this year is Sea Glass, the colors of which were derived from a photo contest winner (you can find the image on our Facebook or Instagram page). “

Where can you buy Nunamoochie? “We do not charge for shipping within the US.  We have a Canadian distributor (Tadpoles & Butterflies) and another for Australia/New Zealand (AngelRock Baby).”

Because of the affordable price, the ready to wear smoothness and the colored top and bottom rails, this is a great wrap for a beginner baby wearer, an expecting mom or a seasoned baby wearer.
