Why We Chose A Snuggle-Pedic Mattress Over the Others

The time came for my oldest son, Zane, to say bye to his crib and hello to a big boy bed. This change came with a mix of emotions: sad, excited, happy, depressed (these were my emotions because this meant my son was officially growing up). He was just excited. Really really excited. The first thing on our list was to find a mattress. Whether it’s for yourself, your child or a parent, there is no other item that you will spend more time using every day so you shouldn’t take the task of finding a mattress lightly! I did research and more research and more research and it all kept leading to SnugglePedic.com.

With over 12,000 5-star reviews, Snuggle-Pedic definitely caught my eye and the more I read, the more I felt like this was the right mattress for us! Unlike their competitors, Snuggle-Pedic products are designed and tested by Dr. Rick Swartzburg D.C. who has spent over 20 years developing pain and sleep relief products so you can feel reassured that the mattress and pillow you’re getting were designed to deliver an optimal balance of comfort and support, and to ensure proper alignment in any sleeping position.

Unlike many of its competitors that are made overseas, Snuggle-Pedic uses all USA made components and only chooses the best quality materials for their products. Their adjustable pillows and their patented mattress that breathes 100 times better to keep you cooler all night will leave you rested and super happy that you chose them!

We chose a full sized mattress for our son so that it could grow with him as he gets older and we chose one of their Ultra Luxury Adjustable Bamboo Pillows because they’re adjustable! You simply unzip the side and remove some of the stuffing to make the pillow as flat or as full as you need to have the best and most comfortable sleep. Because Zane is only 3 years old, we removed about half of the stuffing to keep the pillow on the flatter side but kept the extra stuffing for later on as he grows and needs more support. Their pillows, because they’re adjustable, are perfect for side, back or stomach sleepers as well!

The mattress is easy to set up and comes delivered in a box right to your door! You unroll it and watch it take shape. You’ll notice right away that it says Kool-Flow all over the mattress and pillows which is because they have a Kool-Flow micro-vented bamboo covering and patented AIRFLOW TRANSFER SYSTEM® that creates 100 times the breathability in the mattress for a cooler sleep. It also provides Weightless Pressure Relief with it’s Snuggle-Flex™ Comfort Layers that help to evenly distribute the weight of your body resulting in muscle and joint pressure relief.

A mattress that’s affordable, breathable, made with your comfort in mind and designed by an expert. It’s super obvious why Snuggle-Pedic should be your mattress of choice and why it was ours!

Quick and Easy Valentine's Day Gift

Need a last minute Valentine’s Day gift idea that’s perfect for anyone? Look for further! I gathered up 3 of my fave products and you can find them all online and have them shipped right to your house! We’ll be gifting these goodies to Zane’s daycare teachers as a Thank You for taking such good care of him!!

I’m all about gifts that can double as gift wrap! So I’m going to gift each teacher a reusable 100% silicone mug from GoSili. I love these cups because they’re dishwasher and microwave safe (which also makes them a great gift for you!) and by gifting one, you’re helping to reduce the 100 billion disposable cups that go to land fills each year! I’m going to fill them with the goodies below!

Who doesn’t love to pamper themselves? Next on my list of goodies are some products from NeoStrata! They have products for every skin type and concern, so no matter who you’re shopping for, you’ll find the perfect item. At my age, we would all use some anti-aging products, so I turned to the best product on the market: NeoStrat! I chose the Firming Anti-Wrinkle Cream, the Cellular Restoration Cream, the Tri-Therapy Lifting Serum and the Dual Acid Antiaging Peel. These products will tackle dark spots, uneven skin tone, fine lines and wrinkles and will moisturize the heck out of your dry winter skin!

I topped off each mug with some essentials from EOS. Their lip balms and hand lotions will have everyone’s dry winter skin and lips thanking you and begging for more! They are so affordable, I totally recommend you pick up a few for yourself! They fit perfectly in any purse (and the hand lotions even fit in my wallet)!

I would love to hear what you give your kid’s teachers for Valentine’s Day! Am I the only one that makes a big deal about it?

Neutrogena To The Rescue This Summer!

I got my hands on Neutrogena's MUST HAVE products this summer and am thrilled to say they don't disappoint.

Light Therapy Acne Spot Treatment : Ok so this is the coolest product I've seen all year. It uses red and blue light to treat acne without any discomfort! It's portable (it is literally the size of a pen), it's quick (the treatment takes 2 minutes) and it's affordable. This is totally my must have product this summer for those hot days and the blemishes that often accompany them! Click here to get more info.

Deep Clean Micellar Water and Makeup Remover: BEST feature of this product, hands down: It removes waterproof makeup! This had me jumping for joy. I am obsessed with micellar water but I haven't been able to find one that removes waterproof mascara and waterproof sunscreen which leaves me struggling in the summer for something that works. I am so happy to have discovered this just in time. It smells divine, is gentle on my sensitive skin and doesn't leave a residue behind. OBSESSED. Click here to learn more.

Hydro Boost Gel Moisturizing Sunscreen Lotion: The first thing I noticed was the smell - it smells heavenly and not like a sunscreen at all. It goes on so smoothly, doesn't leave a white residue behind, is SPF 50 (no sun spots for me!!) and a little goes a long way! I also love that it's a gel cream - it has the most incredible texture. Click here to learn more!

Deep Clean Purifying Micellar Cleansing Wipes: These 3 in 1 wipes are perfect to throw in your purse, gym bag or work bag for a quick midday cleanse and makeup touch up during the hot sticky summer. I love that it targets impurities and removes makeup and cleanses without needing water! Click here to learn more.

Hydro Boost Multivitamin Booster with Hyaluronic Acid: This serum can be used on it's own or added to a moisturizer you already have for added moisture and radiance. It helps to energize and brighten the look of your skin with Hyaluronic Acid and a Multivitamin Complex!  I will definitely be adding it to my tinted moisturizer because my skin needs all the hydration it can get after being out in the sun.

If you're looking for a few new additions to your skincare routine, I totally recommend one of the above products! Let me know what you think of them in the comments below!

1 - No, my teeth were not sensitive after! I usually have super sensitive teeth and can't usually use whitening strips, but I had NO issue with this system.

3 - Yes these are my real results! 

4 - I spaced out my 2 treatments by 4 days. I did drink coffee during those 4 days, but I made sure to first have my morning coffee, then I whitened my teeth and then didn't have another coffee or wine until the next day :)
