Purex Insider Product Review- Purex Fresh Pet

Purex is known for enhancing the lives of laundry fans everywhere, but what if they expanded their fan base to include those furry little critters that run around on 4 feet? Well, you are in luck! Purex realizes that those furry little critters have a wardrobe too. Those wardrobes get hair on them, mud on them, food on them, and well...sometimes they just get funky smelling. How do you wash their clothes? Have you ever thought about that? What do you use? Pets don't have the same skin that we do. Why doesn't a company make a laundry detergent just for THEM? We have baby detergents made just for babies and sensitive skin detergents made just for sensitive skin. Well.....

 Now they have!!!!


The special formula in Purex Fresh Pet will keep your four-legged fur babies rocking their studs for a long time, and they will smell Fresh Pet clean!

So, are you ready to try this great new product? I am! In fact, I think my husband's service dog (and family pet, of course) Isabella would be very fond of this new product.

What do you think, Isabella?

I think she likes the idea! We could wash her trusty rain coat!!! :)

Oh but wait....there's more!!!

Yeah, I know, it was a great idea! I know it's past April Fool's, but I hope you enjoyed it!

Purex Insiders Product Review- Purex No Sort for Colors (fresh scent) Laundry Detergent

As a Purex Insider, I was chosen to try out Purex No Sort for Colors and write a product review. Purex provided me with a full size product to try out and also sent coupons for me to provide to some of my lucky readers! The opinions herein are my own.

First of all, I was very iffy about a laundry detergent that was telling me it was ok to wash all of my colors together. I honestly wondered if it would hold true or if my family's clothes would be ruined. However, I reminded myself that I have trusted Purex brands for many years, and Purex has never failed me, so I gave it a try! I threw in a load of my 4-1/2 yrs old son's dirty clothes and washed them with Purex No Sort for Colors. So, I put the clothes in and added the correct dosage of Purex No Sort, and then I wished for the best!
Wow!!! It worked great! No bleeding. No transferring of colors. No issues at all!!! Boy was my son lucky! Haha! Purex No Sort may not be a miracle, but when my husband can wash a mixed load of clothes, since he never separates anything, and nothing comes out a different color from what it originally was, then you KNOW you have a great product!

Purex states, "Purex No Sort for Colors detergent features a breakthrough Anti-Color-Transfer Technology, which traps loose dyes in the wash and reduces color bleeding accidents in your mixed color loads leaving your clothes bright and clean." There is a warning to the consumer to only use this on clothing that has been washed, separately, at least 5 times to prevent mixing of colors.

In honor of the NEW Purex No Sort for Colors laundry detergent, Purex is hosting a sweepstakes. One grand prize winner will receive $1,000 while 100-2d place winners will receive a coupon for free Purex No Sort for Colors detergent. To enter this great sweepstakes, please click here.

To qualify to receive a coupon for a FREE bottle of Purex No Sort from me, please comment below with a story of the worst thing you "accidentally" dyed by washing with the wrong colors. I will randomly select 2 winners. I will notify winners for their mailing address.

Purex Insiders Product Review- Purex Crystals Limited Edition Fabulously Fresh

As a Purex Insider, I was recently chosen to try out the Purex Crystals Limited Edition Fabulously Fresh. In exchange for my review, I received one full size bottle to try out and also coupons to give to some of my lucky readers! The opinions stated are my own.

When I received the email that I had been chosen to try out this new Purex Crystals, I was so excited! I absolutely LOVE Purex Crystals! Every single one of them smells beautifully! I honestly can't say which one is my favorite...well, until now!

The first difference I noticed in the Purex Crystals Limited Edition Fabulously Fresh is that the bottle appears to be bigger than the other scents. It is 28 ounces. The second thing that I noticed was the beautiful bottle. It reminds me of a piece of art work! The last thing that I immediately noticed was how scrumptious this smells. I can't really think of an exact flower that it smells like, but it's a sweet floral scent. (Maybe sweet pea???) The crystals are green like the bottle.

The first load of clothes I put in belonged to my 4-1/2 years old son. As always, I put the Purex Crystals in, then I put the clothes in. When the cycle was done, my whole laundry room smelled so darn good! I took his clothes out, and I could not help but to sniff them. They were just...oh my gosh...paradise!

As with all Purex Crystals products, Purex promotes that the clothes will smell "for weeks, not days." I can say that, with my experience, the clothes DO smell fresh for weeks but it's more of a clean smell rather than the smell they come out of the wash with. Purex Crystals also claim that they "do not reduce the absorbency of towels." In my experience, I would agree with this claim. I've never had a problem with my towels losing absorbency. Purex Crystals also claim that they are "safe for all loads, including children's sleepwear and athletic wear." In my experience, this is true. I have not had any problems with using Purex Crystals.

All in all, I'd say this is probably the "best" Purex Crystals yet!

If you would like to give this new product a try and not have to pay a dime, please share this product review on your Facebook page and then come back to my blog and leave a comment with the "public" link to your share, so that I can verify that you shared it. I will choose 2 random winners and will then contact the winners for their mailing addresses.

THESE COUPONS EXPIRE SEPT. 1, 2014.

Expo Tryology Product Review: Finish Power Up All in 1 Detergent Booster

As a member of Expo's Tryology panel, I was recently chosen to try out the new Finish Power Up All in 1 Detergent Booster. I was sent a full-sized sample of the product to use in my home in exchange for my product review and blog post. The opinions in this review are my own.

Upon receiving my bottle of Finish Power Up All in 1 Detergent Booster, I immediately put it to use. (Good thing I had some messy dishes to wash. Definitely a great challenge for this product!) I loaded up my countertop dishwasher with all of the messy dishes from our barbeque dinner the night before (yes, I know, I should have washed them the night before, but if I did that, then I would not have had the messiest dishes possible, for this review! Sometimes you have to think positively!). Once I got the dishes loaded, I poured in the Finish Power Up All in 1 Detergent Booster and then I poured in our gel dish detergent. I honestly did not know what to expect from this product. I have used other brands of detergent boosters in the past, and they did not really do what they advertised, so I was not holding my breath!


After 1 hour and 25 minutes of cycling, our dishwasher stopped, and the results were in....



No more barbecue sauce!!! It worked!!! If I had washed this load of dishes, with barbecue sauce stuck to the dishes, I know the dishes would have still had barbecue sauce on them. However, with the added bonus of adding Finish Power Up All in 1 Detergent Booster to our regular gel detergent, it definitely did its job! I was very impressed!
If your dishes seem to never get as clean as you want them, or you are looking to boost the cleaning power of your regular dishwasher detergent, I highly recommend giving this product a try! I doubt you will be disappointed! I wasn't! Finish Power Up All in 1 Detergent Booster definitely gets 5 out of 5 stars from me! *On a side note, I am unsure of what type of water we have in our community, but I do believe it's hard water. Results may vary with different types of water.*

Chatterbox by Houseparty.com Product Review- Mable's Labels

As a member of Houseparty.com, I was chosen to try out and review adorable products from Mable's Labels. I was given the chance to place a FREE order to try out a Basic Kit of Mabel's Labels, at no cost to me, in exchange for my product review. The opinions expressed here are my own.

I am the busy mom of 2 kids, ages 12 and 4, and they are very active. They go to school, do sports, do clubs and after-school activities, and they are constantly on the go. To know that I could properly identify an item of theirs with a simple tag, if needed, in the event that they left something behind somewhere, is ingenious! I loved the idea! However, I have never been too keen on putting my kids' first names on anything that they take outside of the home, for the simple fact that I would not want someone to call them by their names and make them think the person knows him or her. I got around that idea though and used our last name, which most people can't even pronounce. LOL Using our last name also means that the labels could be used on items for the whole family, too.

The package has arrived!!!
Look at all the goodies!
 The standard kit, that was sent to me, included a booklet of a variety of labels. There were Skinny-Minis (designed to identify even the smallest school supplies, etc), Tag Mates (laundry-safe labels for clothes that require no ironing or sewing), Shoe Labels (extra-tough labels that peel and stick to the insoles of footwear), and Bag Tags (tough, waterproof metal tags for backpacks, sporting equipment, luggage, and more). My kit also came with 5- $10 off coupon cards for me to give to my readers!!!






Here are some shots of MY labels!






Mable's Labels are very durable and can be used on pretty much anything! These are just 2 ways that I have used them for my kids!

The above pictures show the Skinny-Minis being used on my daughter's craft box and on my son's Leap Pad Ultra. There are so many uses for these adorable labels.

To learn more about Mable's Labels, check out their website! If you are interested in receiving a $10 off $50 or more coupon card, please comment below with an email to be contacted at. I will request your mailing address via email.
