TruKid Review & Giveaway

  We all know about keeping our kiddos safe from the sun by using sunscreen and by teaching them proper hygiene, but are we really protecting our kids with the products we are using?  This is where TruKid products makes all the difference.  They produce a full line of body, hair, and skincare items for children.  All of which are natural, non-toxic, and free of Parabens, Phthalates, Gluten, BPA, SLS, petroleum, fragrances, and harsh chemicals.  They also like to make hygiene fun for kids by having rhymes and songs on some of the products and printable checklists that you can use to keep track of good things they do.

  Mommy in GA received the TruKid Silly Shampoo and the TruKid Sunny Days SPF 30+ Natural Sunscreen.

Mommy in Ga says:  We were so excited when we got the package in the mail!! My 3 year old said "mommy you got package?   What is it?!"  we opened it up and they were super excited to see the silly shampoo and could not wait to try it!!  They wanted to take a bath as soon as we opened it up and when i told them they had to wait, they then asked if the could go to me maw and pe paws to try the new sunblock in the swimming pool!!!
Well that evening i put them in the tub (another favorite thing is you can have the pump dispenser on your shampoo or you can have the regular one that tilts open, LOVE having choices with 4 very different kiddos in the house!!) and they loved the new shampoo and loved the way it smelled (fruity not boring!!!)  They said Mommy i hope we can use this kind all the time!  Of course the kids' favorite was the smell, my favorite thing is that it is all natural and does not have any harsh chemicals, it leaves the hair feeling soft also!!!! The shampoo was a big hit here, also if you go here you can get fun songs and rhymes for your kids, that make them want to clean themselves and take care of themselves!!!!  The link also takes you to the TruKids community and you can also buy the awesome products there also!!!
The sunblock was obviously a hit!! It meant we were going swimming!!The kids liked it also, they said it does not stink like the other sunblock i use (again it has a better fruity smell where the others have that yuckier smell!!)  The sunblock protected my very fair skinned children from the sun so well you couldn't even tell that we had been outside for hours on end in the swimming pool!! The products work great and again, NO harsh chemicals in the making of them, I LOVE IT!!!!!
These products have proved to be awesome in our household and i hope yall will give them a chance!!!

  Mommy in PA received the TruKid Bubbly Body Wash and the TruKid Sunny Days SPF 30+ Face Stick. 

  Mommy in PA says:  We were really excited to receive the products to test right when the weather here in PA was beginning to get nice enough to enjoy spending time outdoors.  We used the Sunny Days Face Stick the first chance we got to get into our pool.  The application was easy enough, just remove the cap and apply to your kiddos faces, or in our case just let them apply it themselves with a mirror.  My seven year old even applied his with just my supervision.  The face stick comes in a very convenient size that could easily be slipped into your purse or pocket and taken to the pool, the park, or anywhere for that matter.  I do wish that the lid sealed a little better though because it may come off (should probably be kept in a plastic bag just in case).  The formula itself is really thick and that was our only real problem with it.  It just isn't very comfortable but you can sure tell if you need to reapply.  I actually ended up having to wash mine off my face later in the day because I could tell I still had it on.  Something we also weren't sure we liked was the smell.  In the tube we liked it (smells like oranges) but on our faces it was almost overwhelming at first (smelled more like rotten oranges).  After having it on for about 10 minutes the smell didn't seem too bad and eventually we didn't notice it at all.  So to sum up, we like this product just don't like how heavy it feels on the face.

The TruKid Bubbly Body Wash was a big hit at our house.  My seven year old has been using it a lot since we got it.  The Bubbly Body Wash comes with a normal shampoo style dispensing cap and it also comes with a pump cap which was promptly added by my son.  I love how they make their products fun for the kids.  We love the smell of it (also fruity), the pretty blue bottle, and it suds up very well.  Out of the two products we received it is our favorite.
