For busy mamas, any day you can manage to squeeze in a shower is a good day. But, how often do you have time to oil up, too? Catch a glimpse of your elbows and you might think you’ve accidentally dipped them in flour. Seven Minerals Aloe Vera Gel is a great option to keep your skin hydrated. “I have dry skin and keeping the moisture locked in has always been a challenge. I’d tried numerous serums from different price ranges and nothing worked as well as this inexpensive, natural Aloe Vera Gel. Slap it on before applying the moisturizer or retinol and your skin will thank you,” said Saglara Lidzheeva, Director, SEO. Aloe Vera is one of mother nature’s special gifts but can be slippery and hard to maneuver.

Once you pop, you can’t stop and for those of us with tattoos, the saying definitely applies. Curious kiddos love to stare at our pretty tattoos and this is a great protective barrier to separate them from our sensitive masterpiece. These tattoo aftercare wraps are latex-free, vegan, ethically sourced and eco-friendly. Social Media Manager Morgan Music says, “For tattooed mamas, Saniderm goes over your tattoo for the first couple days while the tattoo bleeds plasma and heals and is vulnerable to infection. If you want to get a tattoo while you have a toddler or baby this is super helpful to protect it and not have to worry about it. AND you can go in water with it in case you rely on baths for sanity or love to swim.” Make sure to grab a roll of Saniderm before your next tattoo which could be as early as this weekend, *wink wink.*

Transform your child’s bedroom into an intergalactic sanctuary with this 216 piece, glow-in-the-dark ceiling, and wall decals kit. Let your child create their own night sky with moon, star, and meteor stickers. Talk about the best night light ever—your kid will be begging to go to bed after setting up their own space escape. “These glow in the dark stickers came to the rescue when my 20-month-old was having a major sleep regression. She refused to go to bed herself and my entire night would be thrown into the garbage. Enter these stickers. I put them up and told them they were here to keep her company while she was sleeping. She was so fascinated by them, I would catch her on the Nest inspecting them after I put her to bed. No more laying in the dark for hours with her! My nights are back to Netflix & chill, but without the chill,” said Emma Luk, Graphic Designer.
