My little Tatertot was recently given the chance to review an organic line of baby skin care products from Episencial. We were lucky enough to try out the Protective Face Balm, Playful Foaming Body Wash, Sweet Dreams Bubble Bath and the Better Body Better.
The results?
We LOVE them all!
Not only do they all smell amazing, but they are all natural and support the skin’s role in the body’s immune system.
Plus the designs on all of the packaging is beautiful because they all contain images from Eric Carle’s The Hungry Caterpillar.
Oh, and I can’t forget to mention that the Sweet Dreams Bubble Bath and all of its lavendery goodness really does make for sweet dreams!
I’m even more excited that I have 2 more reviews of Episencial products coming up in the future.
We are currently in the process of reviewing the Sunny Sunscreen and my very own Zman and I will be working together to review the Soothing Cream since we have heard nothing but great things about it as a treatment for Eczema and he has suffered from Eczema for a number of years.
So be sure to keep your eyes peeled for these future reviews. In the meantime, if you are interested in trying out the Episencial line you can purchase the products online through EcoMom.com or you can find them in retail stores such as Target. For your convenience, use the Store Locator to find a store near you!
For more information, please visit the Episencial website or the Episencial Facebook Page.

I admit it, I am a fan of American Idol.
I loved the first season and was more than thrilled when Kelly Clarkson won.
Not only because she was a powerhouse.
It also had something to do with the fact that I couldn’t stand to look at Justin Guarini and his curly hair.
He irritated me.
Not to mention Tamyra Gray should have been by Kelly’s side during the finale.
Then during Season 2 I felt there were numerous contestants who were robbed.
Ruben Studdard did not deserve to win.
Even if he was the Velvet Teddy Bear.
It should have been Clay Aiken (based on talent) with Kimberly Locke as the runner-up.
Season 3 didn’t have anything to offer other than Simon insulting the AMAZINGNESS that is Jennifer Hudson.
She should have gone on to win the show.
Instead, we were left with Fantasia Barrino.
Granted, the girl can sing, but seriously…..JENNIFER HUDSON!
By Season 4, I was starting to lose interest.
I was sick of the oogggling over the male contestants by prepubescent girls.
But I was happy to see Carrie Underwood take the title.
America definitely got it right that year!
Then we were presented with Season 5.
Taylor Hicks.
Need I say more?
Other than Chris Daughtry—you were robbed!
Season 6 brought of the beat box styling of one Mr. Blake Lewis.
Dude had talent.
But if you ask me, LaKisha Jones should have been standing next to Jordin Sparks in the end.
And….I was never more happy than I was when Sanjaya Malakar got the boot!
Winner- Jordin Sparks.
When Season 7 auditions began airing, I picked the winner immediately.
This was the best season for me since the 1st.
After watching David Cook do Billie Jean, I was more than in love with him.
I was happy to see him win.
Season 8 made me tired.
This season I was rooting for Danny Gokey.
Adam Lambert drove me crazy with his incessant screaming.
Kris Allen was boring.
In the end, I was not pleased.
Which brings us to Season 9.
American Idol is getting boring.
This season more than any.
From the beginning we have been fans of Crystal Bowersox.
To us, she is the one we want to win.
But we also love Lee DeWyze.
I’d still prefer that Crystal win.
This is how I hope it turns out.
Either way they will both make it big.
Who do you want to win and what is your view on seasons past?? What is your favorite Idol performance over the years?
