Mom & Baby Must Haves!
This post is sponsored by BabbleBoxx.
I’m always on the lookout for great products for my family and I. It’s always nice to find something new that works well or can save some time. Thanks to BabbleBoxx, I recently got to test out a bunch of items designed for moms and babies. I was really excited when this box arrived and you can see from the photo above that Brooklyn was pretty stoked too! Now, let’s get to those reviews!
Lug Via 2 Convertible Tote Bag - Being organized is a must for busy moms, and this bag does not disappoint. It definitely gets bonus points in my book too for being stylish. There are a ton of pockets and it can transform from a tote, to a crossbody, shoulder bag to even a backpack. There’s more than enough room for all of your essentials inside and plenty of space for any extras. I love the gorgeous floral print that I received and the pretty color of the interior lining. You can find many more fun prints/colors available for this bag too!
The exterior is water-repellent so you don’t have to worry about getting caught outdoors at the wrong time. One of my favorite features is the front soft-lined slip pocket. It’s the perfect size for my cell phone and keeps it protected yet easily accessible. Another cool feature of this bag is the trolley sleeve that easily slides over a suitcase. I haven’t had a chance to test this out yet, but I’m excited to try next time we’re at the airport.

Diaper Care from NOLEO - Brooklyn has sensitive skin so I’m always on the lookout for gentle yet effective products that work. NOLEO is non-toxic and gets the job done. NOLEO 3-in-1 diaper care uses a 100% natural formula with only 5 simple ingredients: limewater, sunflower oil, olive oil, glyceryl stearate, and beeswax. If your baby is prone to diaper rashes you’ll be happy to know that Noleo is a natural diaper rash treatment. It leaves a natural oil-barrier behind to protect baby’s skin.
The NOLEO system is easy to use just add a pump to a disposable organic cotton pad, wipe baby’s bottom, and put on their diaper as you normally do. There is no rinsing required! It works with disposables or cloth diapers. You can feel good knowing that NOLEO is the only diaper care cream that’s certified skin microbiome friendly so you can be confident that your little one’s skin is protected after each change.
LiftActiv 15% Pure Vitamin C + LiftActiv Supreme H.A. Wrinkle Corrector - It’s easy for us moms to forget about taking care of ourselves. I was very excited to find these skincare products from VICHY inside my BabbleBoxx! You may already know that two of the most popular and effective skincare ingredients are Vitamin C and Hyaluronic Acid. But, what you might not know is that they come in a variety of different formulas and their percentage concentrations matters. The LiftActiv 15% Pure Vitamin C Serum contains 15% pure Vitamin C and is designed to brighten and even your skin tone. The summer sun has added some extra freckles to my skin and I’m eager to even out my tone again.
I miss the skin I had in my twenties. Now that I’m in my 30’s I see more and more fine lines and wrinkles popping up. Vichy’s LiftActiv Supreme H.A. Wrinkle Corrector is formulated with 1.5% Pure Hyaluronic Acid and felt nice as I applied it to my skin. It’s designed to plump the skin and reduce wrinkles. I’m excited to continue using this new skincare regime with Vichy!
PinkCheeks Gift Box from Hoppy & Poppie - I’ve always enjoyed reading to my little ones and this gift box from Hoppy & Poppie is such a fun way to connect with babies-preschoolers while they actively learn emotional intelligence skills. Did you know that equipping little ones with these skills early on is proven to help them thrive socially, academically and emotionally throughout childhood and into adulthood?

Brooklyn loved when I read the Not So Scary board book to her! The Hoppy & Poppie PinkCheeks Plush toys are adorable and a fun way for her to interact with the characters in the book. Each one has a zippered pouch where you can place the emotion wristbands. It’s a really fun way for toddlers to learn primary emotions like happy, sad, scared, excited, angry & calm. I really wish I had found this set earlier for my older school-aged children to enjoy. I know we’re going to be using this set a lot more! Learning through play is so important and this set would make a great gift for expecting parents.
Cleansing Gel + Lotion from Baby Magic - I’ve always loved the smell of my babies freshly bathed! Baby Magic has been around and trusted for over 65 years. I used the Baby Magic Cleansing Gel & Baby Magic Lotion during our last bath time and they worked great. I like that the cleansing gel is a tear free, hypoallergenic formula. Like I had mentioned before, Brooklyn has quite sensitive skin. This is both allergy and dermatologist tested. After her bath, Brooklyn’s skin was clean and felt smooth. For extra moisture I used the Baby Magic Lotion. It is sulfate-free, phthalate-free, dye-free & paraben-free. It made Brooklyn’s skin so soft and the scent lasted well into the night. The formula uses vitamins & aloe that are rich in anti-oxidants. With harsh Chicago winters coming up, I definitely need something on hand for Brooklyn’s dry, sensitive skin.
Lil’ Squish Jellyfish from Baby Banana - Brooklyn was immediately drawn to this toy when we opened our BabbleBoxx. it’s easy to see why with the bright colors and adorable design. Between the stimulating colors and variety of textures this toy holds baby’s attention. It’s a sensory rattle and teether in one. Brooklyn is cutting a few more teeth right now so this has really come in handy. Babies as young as 3 months old can enjoy this. I really appreciate that this rattle is gentle for baby and not loud for my ears. With 4 kids, we’ve got plenty of noises in our house already! Brooklyn has continued to enjoy playing with the Lil’ Squish Jellyfish rattle and teether daily since we received our BabbleBoxx.
I’m happy that we got to try out all of these fun products in our BabbleBoxx and hopefully will have more to review for you soon. In the meantime, I’d love to hear about some of your go to baby products and skincare for yourself.
