    Don’t Hate Him Because He’s Pretty…

    Missing that sweet, comforting solace you find in Makeover Momma TV? No worries. We have a nice healthy serving of recap for you, complete with footage from last night’s show (above) and links, scoop and inside information on your favorite brands and treats (below). Since our show was all about going “Back To School”, reward yourself by watching…. we’ll maybe even give you college credit.

    Note: This version finally has all videos visible! Enjoy in all it’s helpful glory (or re-watch videos on the  Makeover Momma You Tube page).

    The Giveaway: Melvita skincare

    Are you a huge fan of organic skin care products (come on, who isn’t?) You’re going to love Melvita. They have a huge range of organic and ecologically friendly skincare and haircare products (including hydrating floral waters to balance your complexion, or plant oils that can treat split ends, dry nails, irritated skin and more). The line is safe for your entire family because it’s free from toxic ingredients, and a wonderful way to teach your kids about the value of giving back to the earth. Plus, they have more options than we know what to do with (whether anti-aging skincare, perfumes, soaps, supplements and even skincare for your children and teens). Click on the website and you won’t want to stop searching….

    Product of the Week: Anthony For Men

    At Makeover Momma TV we are always trying to show you new and exciting products to spoil yourself  with (in those rare instances in which you actually get to think about yourself). But for this week only, we’re showing you how you can also spoil that Makeover Dad in your life (otherwise known as your hubby, your BF, your love, or whomever it is you’re hoping to spoil). Believe it or not, that man is not only capable of being groomed, but his manliness will continue to remain intact (feel free to admire the examples we’ve provided above). And just incase these products won’t turn your man into Eric Dane or Stephen Moyer, they can still help him look good…

    Our Favorite Products:

    * Anthony For Men Eye Cream( $12) is perfect for that guy who doesn’t even know what an eye cream is, and practically get’s confused about where to use it. It’s for all skin types and does the job quick…bye bye puffy eyes!

    * Foaming Face Wash ($10) will do just the trick for your man’s face (even if he doesn’t know it yet). It will clean the skin while prepping for a shave. It’s a 2 in 1… and men love that (actually, so do we!)

    * Strength Spray ($18): This next product tops it all off. This spray is allergy tested, is suitable for all skin types, but most of all, it smells so good that we wanted to follow him around the house all day (not a bad way to spend the day, eh?)

    Want to know what a MAN thinks about these products? Watch the footage from Makeover Momma TV above. We had a real man give is thoughts (and we didn’t even coach him on what to say!) See for yourself…

    Finding Toxin-Free Sunscreen Is Easier Than You Think: Makeover Momma TV Recap


    Want to watch Makeover Momma TV? If you missed last night’s show, you can catch the recap just by viewing the video above. We talked all about “Building A Healthy Family”, by focusing healthy foods that kids love, easy ideas for working out together and more! So check it out (and get all of the scoop, links and giveaway info by reading below).

    Note: This version of the recording does not show the videos that were aired. To view each video, please go to the Makeover Momma You Tube page (where we upload the videos each week), or scan below for highlights.

    The Giveaway: Suave Naturals Body Lotion & Suave Naturals Body Wash

    If you’re a busy, budgeted mother (like most of us), chances are you’ve already been using Suave for awhile. It’s not secret that they offer crazy affordable products that work just as well as the fancy schmancy stuff (except without the side of guilt). But what you might not know is that they also offer new lotions and body washes with beautiful smells (similar to pricier items you might find at a department store). Even the names are beautiful: Mango Mandarin, Wild Cherry Blossom, or Lavender Vanilla. Their new smells are so gorgeous in fact, that we had to share them with you (and did, via a random giveaway on Makeover Momma TV last night!)

    Stay tuned next week for more live giveaways… you could be the next winner!


    Product of the Week: Soleo Organics Sunscreen

    If you get freaked out by the chemicals, toxins and weird ingredient names listed on the back of your kids sunscreen… trust your instincts. After writing for the fabulous cancer awareness company Cinco Vidas in the past, I learned so many things about toxin-free products (and their connection to disease) that completely shocked me. Of course, skipping sunscreen all together is just as dangerous for your skin, so try protecting your family safely with this organic, all natural SPF find: Soleo Organics.

    This sunscreen has a lot of great numbers going for it: 100% all natural ingredients, the packaging is made from 100% recyclable materials, and it’s 100% environmentally safe. Best of all, it works the same as your standard sunscreen to protect your skin (and that if your family’s) from harmful UVA and UVB rays. Yes, it’s a little pricier than your average SPF (although I’ve got to be honest, sunscreen is always expensive), but it is one of the few safe, toxin-free choices you’ll find.

    De-Puff And De-Pore With Supreme Beauty Solutions: Makeover Momma TV Recap


    Are you ready for your weekly dose of Makeover Momma TV? Last night’s show talked all about how participating in charities and giving back to your community can help you build on your passions and reconnect with yourself again (you know, that side of yourself that isn’t reading Dr. Seuss for the eightieth time). But if that sounds to “kumbaya” for your taste, don’t worry… there was plenty of gossip, videos and product reviews to fill your soul too.

    Note: This version of the recording does not show the videos that were aired. To view each video, please go to the Makeover Momma You Tube page (where we upload the videos each week), or scan below for highlights.

    The Giveaway: Clearly Beautiful Facial Mask

    Even though there is still a week left to enter our Evenflo Savvy Parents Car Seat Kit giveaway (full of car goodies for your kids, cleaning items for you and even a gift card for gas), we were so excited to giveaway a Clearly Beautiful face mask during the live show! Clearly Beautiful is a line of luxurious, unique facial masks that treat all kinds of skincare problems (like collagen loss or dull skin) and are super easy to use (you just apply the cloth over your face, relax for a few precious moments, and you’re done!) You can get face masks for every region of your body (including your eyes and neck), so it’s almost like a full service spa right in the comforts of your own home. And if a “facial in a fabric” isn’t cool enough, you can get the 5 Day EasiFacial kit which has 5 weeks worth of facial treatments, so you can detox your skin step by step (including skin clearing masks, anti-aging and hydrating). It’s the perfect way to prep your skin for a big event (toted as the “5 day alternative to salon facials”), and is only $19 for the entire kit. Cool, huh?

    The Winner:

    * Linda from Baby To Be TV was chosen live and at random during the show… but guess what? Thanks to our charitable topic of the show, she was kind enough to give her product to another Linda (Lady O)… how wonderful is that? Please be sure to check out the Baby To Be show every Monday at 1 PM, and “pay it forward” like Linda does to others.

    And stay tuned next week for more live giveaways!

    Product of the Week: Beautisol Luxurious Eye Cream Duo

    Sick of looking in the mirror and seeing a bloated, droopy raccoon staring back (we’re talking about your eyes, of course). Fear not, because Beautisol is here. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I love Beautisol self tanning products as much as I love it’s founder Sinead from Self Tanning Queen. She has spent so much time sharing beauty tips and tricks with others, that it’s only natural she put all that knowledge into her own line of products.

    Now Beautisol is about to launch a brand new set of products, Luxurious Eye Cream Duo, to treat the delicate skin around our eyes. Each product (Eye Want and Bright Eyed) can be used separately or together to target the fragile skin on our face, and create younger looking eyes. Eye Want works to target wrinkles, crows feet and sagging much like an injection (except no creepy needles), and Bright Eyed is a mousse that stops puffiness and swelling, while still preventing signs of aging. Basically, since you won’t be sleeping for the next eighteen years (or more)…you’re really going to need this!
