Say “Yes to” organic carrots, cucumbers and tomatoes…for your hair? http://bit.ly/dsS7cC

Yes to Carrots Shampoo

In the ongoing search for organic and earth friendly hair care that actually works, I tried the “Yes to” brand…and FINALLY I was pleased with what I found! Not only is the price right, $8.99 for 16.9 oz of shampoo, the scent is subtle and clean, and my hair actually felt like it has been washed with salon products. Most organic brands I have tried have left my hair dry, squeaky and well, in a tangled mess…But this one, surprisingly, really worked! I am not totally crazy about the conditioner, its a bit too strong smelling for me, but the shampoo I highly recommend!

And to make it even more appealing, the company not only uses 100% organic ingredients, they also donate a portion of all Yes To proceeds to the Yes To Carrots™ Seed Fund, a non-profit, 501(C) 3 organization helping to make a difference in people’s lives through sustainable agriculture. Oh, and all products are Paraben and SLS free and provide a lovely sense of humor in their directions for use… “Gently work shampoo through your gorgeous locks, massaging your scalp soothingly with your fingertips.*May result in soft, stunning locks.”

Next up on the list to try- their Pomegranate SPF lip butter and the Cucumber Soothing Eye Gel!

Summertime fashion for the post baby body… http://bit.ly/aSwmhN

Anyone who has had a baby knows that no matter how fit you are, once that little nugget makes his/her arrival, your body does not magically return to it’s pre pregnancy brilliance. However, these days (especially in summer) the fashion seems to be perfectly accommodating to our recently enhanced hips,tummy and bust area that most children leave us with…It’s all about soft fabrics that drape and offer comfort as well as serious style, flowing dresses that show off your bare back, and gorgeous tops that flatter your new (and often improved) chest.

Here are some of my favorite styles for those first few months of post pregnancy bliss.
