Giveaway #
1: Dandy Nappy
We all want the best for our babies-- even if it means
additional cut on our budget. I've never used cloth diapers for my son, Nathan,
and I quite regret it. I came across a lot of reviews about cloth diapers
online several months ago but I never got the chance to use one.
So what are the advantages of using cloth diapers?
First of all, it doesn’t have chemicals like disposable diapers so it’s safer
to use and there’s little chance your baby catches diaper rash. Second, they’re
comfortable for your babies since it is made of soft cotton. Third, the cost
analysis studies reveal that it is cost-effective than using disposable diapers,
in the long run. And lastly and what’s probably most important for a mom like
me, is that it promotes early toilet training.
Dandy Nappy was generous enough to share with one (1)
winner a Cloth Diaper Cover with Staydry
Insert. The winner can choose between two colors: red (if you have a baby
boy) or watermelon (for a baby girl).
I just realized, I’m a bit of a regretful mother when
I was looking for sponsors and came across Numa Baby. Numa (pronounced as
'new-ma') strives to provide moms like me the best baby products without
hurting Mother Earth. Their products are all organic hence, eco- and
baby-friendly. They have the widest range of brands to choose from and sell
just about any baby products every mommy needs—from baby care and feeding to
learning materials.
For this giveaway, they are big-heartedly giving away a
set of Numa Baby gift pack to two
(2) lucky winners worth Php 1250 each. How awesome is that?
I’m a great fan of wedges. Maybe it’s because of my
stride—they’re not meant for unstable heels. Haha. For my 3rd
giveaway, ShushKohETC will be giving away a pair of Strap Sexy Cork black wedges (size 7) for one (1) lucky reader and Original brown Espadrille (size 6) to
another.
ShushKohETC is a proud supplier of Liliw-made
footwears—dollshoes, flats, wedges, open-toe bandana, etc. I’ve seen good finds
upon browsing their websites and their open-toe sako are probably the cutest. So
if you’re a wedge fanatic like me, you better join this giveaway to get a
chance on these really fine footwears.
