Ingredients
I came across Cosmetics Database yesterday, and it pretty much confirmed what I already knew- it is so hard to find healthy, natural products (especially for kids). The ratings on some of these products are truly horrifying! Though I understand it is nearly impossible to get away from hazardous ingredients, I do think making wiser choices on the products you purchase is a must!
Check out Cosmetics Database here for a ranking system for all your families products.

Sorry for the short hiatus, I was in Florida surprising my grandpa for his 80th birthday- Happy Birthday Opa! It was great to be back in warm weather, especially at night when the warm breeze was blowing. It makes me think of summer nights staring at the stars… Happy Monday!

Sugary teeth?? Clean them up with Kiss My Face!
As we all know, I love Kiss My Face products. It is a company I completely stand behind. Not only are their products amazing, but they seem to just exude a pleasant company image, and working environment as well! Plus, they always have all sorts of great incentives to buy- not like you needed any more of a reason.
This after- Halloween they are offering a full size tube of their new line of children’s toothpaste, a $6 value, with any purchase. Woo hoo, clean teeth!!

Handy Dandy Candy Totes
When I was little I had a hard, orange plastic pumpkin to carry around all my candy treasures on Halloween. As I got older, I carried a pillowcase, which I am pretty ashamed of now- but at the time it was the cool thing to do. Well times have changed… check out these cool totes from the North American Bear Company, $10 each.

Novelty Candy
Instead of the regular old Snickers, M&M’s, and Reese’s this Halloween, why not give Papabubble? Papabubble makes hard artisan candy in all sorts of flavors at their NYC flagship store on Broome. You can also just stop by for a taste and watch the candy makers work their magic.

Costumes
Wovenplay is definitely one of my favorite kids companies. Their creations are so ethereal, and extremely unique. I would dress my child up in any one of their fantasy dress up outfits for Halloween. I wouldn’t even mind a pretty winged- fairy dress for myself!
