Dry Divas Shower Cap Review

Pin It

 ~Post made possible by Dry Divas~



Basically Dry Divas is the cutest and pretty much best shower cap I have ever seen in my life. Cute and functional. Made in America. I have actually used the cheap plastic ones you see in hotels and honestly they don't do much but make my hair flat and gross underneath. These sort of "poof out" so to speak so that they don't make your hair flat thus making the perfect shower cap.



They even have added bling to make them extra cute.



They come in 3 sizes:
  • Choose Bouffant if you have medium to long hair or extensions.
  • Choose Classic for short to medium length hair.
  • Choose Little Divas for kids ages 5-10.


Dry Divas shower caps are make of a high-quality laminate that is mildew resistant, so you don’t have to spend any of your precious time washing it. However, if you would like to wash your shower cap, please wash in cold water on delicate cycle and line dry.
Made in the USA, each Dry Divas shower cap is sewn by hand. They are made of the highest quality laminated fabric that is incredibly soft inside and out. Ensuring that your hair stays healthy and dry, our shower caps, ribbon, and embellishments are 100% waterproof. 
I love how it is super low maintenance as well. So I just take it off and hang it up on the curtain rod in my shower to dry. Plenty of cute designs to choose from. Honestly after using one of these I could never use one of those cheap flimsy ones ever again. These work great and look even better. I can't even think of a way to improve them because they are so well designed.

JELL-O Summer Mold Kit Review

Pin It


~This post is made possible by JELL-O~

jigglers

I can't possibly be the only one that gets excited about JELL-O molds? My mom and I have been known to search them out at different grocery stores to make sure we got the ones we wanted years ago.

Memorial Day and the 4th of July are literally right around the corner and one way to get into the spirit is to make some JELL-O jigglers. I have always liked jigglers and I love that Big Sis at 4 years old can help me make them since they are so incredibly simple to make.



JELL-O and Team Red, White and Blue have partnered for a new “Team Red, White and Blue” JIGGLERS mold kit. The kit comes with a flag and star-themed mold and Berry Blue and Strawberry JELL-O gelatin so you have everything you need to get started.


Team RWB is transforming the way America supports its veterans when they return from combat by connecting them to their community through physical and social activities. JELL-O is also making a donation to support them. For more info, visit http://teamrwb.org/kraft. 

These tasty and fun treats are perfect for a summertime barbeque, family picnic or pool party with friends and family. I may or may not be known for also making adult versions containing a clear adult liquid which makes them the perfect spiked treat for adults that are 21+ of course!

And you can find more summer recipes at
www.jello.com.

Connect: You can connect with JELL-O on their website, facebook, @JELLO on twitter and Pinterest.

Buy It! You can purchase the kit at grocery stores nationwide.

Bump Ahead: Undercover Mama Nursing Tank Review & Giveaway

Pin It


Welcome to our Bump Ahead: An Outnumbered Baby Shower Event! We are celebrating the new lives growing inside of two of our own writers, Anne and Shay; as well as the four {yes, you read that correctly} boys growing inside of my sister in law! From May 1st through July 1st, we will be sharing some of our top baby gear picks and great Baby Shower Gift ideas with you! Be sure to check back often for our latest finds and a chance at some awesome prizes!

~This feature was made possible by Undercover Mama~

"Breastfeeding in style!"

I have been wanting to try an Undercover Mama nursing tank for over a year now, so when I got the opportunity to review one for our baby shower event I was really excited. I practically lived in nursing tanks when my 10 month old was first born last July. I am still breastfeeding my little and it's finally warm again in NY so I will rock my nursing tanks all summer long. I love the convince of nursing tanks but they aren't always super flattering. If you are a larger chested mama like myself, your 'girls' often don't get the support they need from a nursing tank. Enter the Undercover Mama. This wickedly awesome tank turns ANY bra into a nursing tank. This means that with the help of the Undercover Mama you can now turn your favorite nursing bra or good old go to underwire bra in my case, into your favorite nursing tank.


The Undercover Mama comes with two pieces attached to the top of the tank top that allow you to attach the tank to your bra. There is a little plastic hook which slides on to attach to the bra strap; you can use this option with both a nursing bra and regular bra. There is also a little clear plastic loop that you can use to attach the tank to your bra. You can only use the plastic loop option with a nursing tank; just slip the little plastic loop over your nursing bra where the flap unhooks.


With the Undercover Mama you can NIP (nurse in public) with out having to lift your t-shirt up and expose your belly. The Undercover Mama has you covered, literally and will help you NIP more discreetly. Another great feature of the Undercover Mama is that it is long, and when i say long I mean it. It covered my long torso nicely and even extended past my back jean pockets while wearing it. The Undercover Mama is also really soft and strechy making it comfortable to wear all the time.

The Undercover Mama is available in sizes XS, SM, Med, Lg, XL, and XXL there is a size for everyone. I ordered my Undercover Mama in a size large, for reference I wear an XL size shirt. Undercover Mama suggests you order one size smaller than your normal t-shirt size. I must admit I was skeptical of this, but they were right and the large fits me perfectly. I can not say enough about this tank. I love it! Lately I have even been wearing it with my non-nursing bras. I just slide the attached plastic clip over my bra strap. When I do this I have to undo the clip when I nurse. When you use a nursing bra with your Undercover Mama you won't have to undo the clip, you will just have to open the flap on the bra like you normally would when you go to nurse your LO. 

Undercover Mama basic essential tanks are available in black, white, cream, grey, brown nude and pink. The lace trim style Undercover Mama is available in black and white. Undercover Mama is also currently featuring some bright summer colors, which are limited edition, they are blueberry, emerald, orange, red, lime and navy. These tanks are really versatile and will work through out pregnancy, nursing, and beyond.
