ecomom Review and Giveaway

If you have read my blog long enough, you know that I like to try and use as many natural products as I can.  I try to buy organic foods when available and all natural products for things like hair and skin.  So when I heard about ecomom, I was happy that I found a company who does all the research and finds the best products so I don't have to.

ecomom offers organic food, safe bath and skin care, learning toys, eco friendly gear for mom and baby, and clothes and accessories.

I had the opportunity to review a couple items from ecomom and I would like to tell you a little about them.

The first is SmartyPants Gummy Vitamins.  These vitamins are an all-in-one multi-vitamin for both kids and adults which contains no high fructose corn syrup.

They contain 100% of the RDI for Vitamin D, eco-friendly DHA & EPA Omega 3's, are gluten and casein free, and only 5g of organic cane sugar per serving.  SmartyPants Gummy Vitamins come in lemon, orange, and cherry flavors. 

My daughter has been asking for gummy vitamins for quite some time now as we have only purchased chewables in the past.  We were given a one serving sample of four gummies.  I am not sure which of the three flavors she tried but she did not like it.  Since she would not eat anymore, I ate the other three.  I thought they tasted fine (possibly just different from what she is use to) and am sure most children would like them, especially since four gummies is one serving.  It's almost like having a snack.  

The SmartyPants Gummy Vitamins sell for $21.95 for one bottle, which is a 30-day supply or 120 gummies. 

The second product I was able to try was Doctor T's Supergoop Lip Balm.  This lip balm has a SPF of 30 and is made with shea butter.  The active ingredients include Octinoxate 7.5% (Sunscreen), Octisalate (Sunscreen) 5%, and Avobenzone 3% (Sunscreen).  It goes on smooth and kept my lips moist.  It comes in two flavors, mint and acai.  I received mint but if I had a choice I would probably prefer acai.  Doctor T's Supergoop Lip Balm sells for $8.50.

  30. I've ordered from Ecomom before and they have very bad customer service. I had a problem with a product and it took them over one month to resolve it (and unsatisfactorily, at that.) They said it took them so long because they were "busy".
