RubyMoon Natural Detergent - Review

October 2, 2010

The first thing I noticed was the smell. The detergent was in a plastic bag inside mailer and the scent just engulfed me still. I have tried some other cloth diaper detergents and although they cleaned my diapers I didn't smell much. RubyMoon is all about the scent and it's obvious. I was so happy to receive a bag of her 45/90 Cloth Diaper Detergent in that month's scent, Cucumber Melon. Mmmm it was such a yummy scent too. I really got too excited and used the detergent on my reg laundry instead of just our cloth diapers. RubyMoon has both laundry wash and cloth detergent and so much more.

About the Company:
I love these kind of stories! Lyndsay with RubyMoon began making laundry detergent out of necessity. Her daughter had really bad eczema and was also in cloth diapers. The "baby" detergent she was using had her feeling trapped. To use anything else would cause stinky leaky diapers but her baby's skin was paying the price. She decided to make her own and had such great success with family and friends ventured out and began to sell to others.


RubyMoon's Mission
Our mission at Ruby Moon is to provide you with an affordable, gentle on the earth and your skin, tough on stains and odor, line of products. All of our products and packaging are made with natural and biodegradable ingredients. We rigorously test our products and would never sell you anything that we wouldn't use on our own families.

My 2¢
PrincessJ did not last long with cloth diapers because of stinkiness and  leakiness. This time lil dreamy is being well taken care of because of moms like Lyndsay! I was most happy with the amount of product I was able to review. Most companies give you a small amount that you can only launder 10 or less loads of cloth. With RubyMoon I had enough detergent to last much longer. The only reason it didn't last was because I used it on our regular clothing as well. Want more opinions from other mom's just like you?

Buy It! At just $10 - $10.95



This contest was open to residents of the US and Canada. All winners have been posted at the Home-Mom winner's page.  Thank you so much to Lyndsay for providing me with review and giveaway for all my readers.

TheWillowStore - Review

October 1, 2010

Willowstore_logo
A Home-Mom Event
Ihave another great review and giveaway and it's cloth related! First, thanks to Catherine and The Willow Store for sponsoring Home-Mom and this event. Together we are fluffing up the World a few booties at a time. I was extremely happy to open up the mail to find a Sprout Change Shell v2 in Chili Pepper.

About the Comapny:
Mom, Catherine Bolden, created WillowPads and the Willow Store in 2005. The intent was to create a reusable feminine pad that maximized absortion but minimized the bulk. The Willow Store offers practical, organic products for natural-minded families - always made in the USA. Manufacturing a range of products from reusable diapers and natural feminine care to organic pillows, blankets and washable un-paper towels. Now that sounds cool!

What I love:
This cover is reversible. Ever since I started using cloth I've wanted to find a diaper you can reverse and that keeps it's funtionality and cuteness. I've just begun my journey into making fitted diapers and they can be reversed but they aren't water proof and they fit very well with this One Size diaper. Wondering how its able to be one size? All the adjusting elastic is located inside bwtween the layers. You can adjust the rise and waist for the best fit for your baby. Perfect for lil dreamy now and for lil turkey coming this fall, (I guess that is the new name sillly and cute). Like any cover you can use until it is soiled. I have a rotation of covers when we are out and about to give them time to air dry. When my husband Mr. Dreamy felt the soaker he kept saying Ooooos and Ahhhhhhs. I guess he liked it, he wanted a blanket in the same material.

Buy It!
The Sprout Change Shell v2 complete with diaper cover and soaker retails at just $16.95 and comes with a 60-Day Guarantee and a 1-year Warranty







    This contest was open to residents of the US and Canada and will ended October 24th. The winner has been notified via email and listed on the Home-Mom winner's page. Thank you so much to Catherine for providing me with review and giveaway for all my readers. I was not compensated in any other way other than stated above and the statements made in this post are all my own. Disclosure Policy

    Rockin' Green Review and Giveaway

    September 2, 2010


    Home-Mom's Cloth Diapering Event

    I've got to tell you I was super excited to receive my Rockin' Green Soap in the mail. Since I am so new to cloth diapers the new and improved modern way there are so many things I still want to try out and Rockin' Green was really high on the list.  We have been going really smoothly with the cloth for 3 months without any problems then this rash showed up. I tried everything and suspected my soap to be the cause. I've been making my laundry soap since March and really love it but am afraid my cloth diapers do not. In asking about cloth friendly laundry soaps Rockin' Green was mentioned almost all of the time. I was so thrilled to receive 3 samples of the Rage against the Raspberry from Kim at Rockin' Green, that's enough to do 6 loads of cloth diapers.






    About the Company:
    Rockin' Green began with a mom who wanted something better for her baby, in the process she has gained quite the following and made an awesome business. More about the company straight from the maker...
    Rockin’ Green LLC was born out of necessity. My kid’s have incredibly sensitive skin and they broke out with just about everything store bought. Eventually I started buying WAHM soaps and lotions and saw an immediate improvement in their skin. On top of my kid’s skin sensitivities, I also found it extremely difficult to get my diapers clean with hard water. We either ended up with stinkies or buildup problems. So I set out to find a better way, and Rockin' Green was born. 
    There are 3 formula types:
    Soft Rock - designed for those that have sensitive little ones or soft water and is unscented.
    Classic Rock - the original formula. great for those with moderate hard water, or just those battling with stinkies. Comes in unscented and scented varieties.
    Hard Rock - designed for the most troubling of water types. Comes in both unscented and scented.



    What I love:
    I have such a soft spot for great marketing campaigns. The whole rock theme is awesome to me. Whats not to like about FREE Shipping? Also. I love how informative this company is. My husband Mr. Dreamy of course wanted to know all about the ingredients. Their website's FAQ page clearly states everything I needed to know and I love how all the directions are clearly stated on the actual packaging. We do not have hot water in our laundry room. So I filled up our bathtub with hot water and did my soak then hauled it all to the wash room. I love all the scent names, Barenaked Babies, The Green Teas, Smashing Watermelons... for more visit here. On scent names alone I love this company! My diapers were beginning to have a real ammonia stench about them, not out of the wash but as soon as they'd get wet with pee they'd smell horrible.


    ... and Not so much:
    I just was expecting to be blown away with the scents. I received 3 samples of Rage against the raspberry (just because of the name), it's also one of the best sellers. I really stuck my nose in the packet to smell and really didn't get much back. I guess I just had this mental picture of me smelling my diapers once they came out and just breathing in some yummy sent. Could it be because I don't have hot water in the wash? Hmmm...did that affect the results? No, the soap did all it said it would.


    Classic Rock- 45/90 LoadsBuy It!
    Dependnig on the formula, price ranges from $22.95-$26.95 per 90/180 load bags. Like to try before you buy? Rockin' Green has samples you can purchase to try a scent or to figure out your formula preference. Also you will be rewarded every time you buy. How? Visit the FAQ for Rockin' Rewards.


    This contest is now closed but was open to the US and Canada and ended on September 19, 2010 at 12:00 AM, CST. The winner has been chosen via random.org and will be notified if not already soon via email and listed on the HomeMom winner's page. Winners will have 72 hours to respond or a new winner will be chosen.  Thank you so much to Kim at Rockin' Green Soap for providing this review and giveaway for all my readers.

      Baby Doll Diapers' Review
      Cloth Diapers for your little one's little one 9/5


      Home-Mom's Cloth Diapering Event

      How cute can all the cloth diapers be for you little one? When I first started with cloth my oldest daughter, Princess T, would use them on her baby dolls. It was especially frustrating at times since I had such a small stash. I needed every diaper and would have to have track down her
      babies to just so I could diaper her little brother.





      Railroad Diaper for Stuffed Animals or Baby Dolls


      Well I found some cloth diapers made especially for dolls. Missy over at www.etsy.com/shop/Cranmommissy has a great solution. What better way to help teach little ones about waste, reusables, and what's better for the environment than to buy them their own set or stash. They come in all colors and varieties.
