There were so many great brands at BlogPaws but one in particular piqued my interest: CritterZone, an Air Naturalizer that is compact and filterless. To be honest with you, I just didn’t know if this small device was going to make a difference (4.5″H x 2.75″W x 2″D). I have an air purifier in the [...]

1-Gallon Pail – Shredded Coconut I have a sweet tooth and always have to have dessert after dinner! My husband will tell you that I have it after breakfast, lunch AND dinner! If the treat has coconut as an ingredient – WATCH OUT! It’s all over for me if coconut is involved! Unlike most sweets [...]
I love makeup and skincare products but I hate that I can’t try products out at most stores. The stores that do allow you to sample stuff are too far from me. For $10 a month, Birchbox sends you a box containing samples of various skincare and makeup items. You fill out a profile that [...]
I am often asked how I do my eye makeup, what my favorite beauty brands are, if I do my nails myself. I have a health and beauty section on Doggies and Stuff, so I can share some of those things with my fellow pet mommas. However, I haven’t done much lately. I think I [...]

A few weeks ago I posted about Urban Decay deciding to sell in China. Hundreds of fans took to Twitter, Facebook and blogs to lash out at them for turning their backs on animals. It was brutal. The Chinese government stipulates that animal testing on either ingredients or a finished product must take place before [...]
I’m interrupting your regularly scheduled programming to talk about something other than pet products :gasps heard throughout the blogosphere:! LOL! I know it has been a while since I have blogged about pet parent “stuff” so here it goes! I recently found a product that I really wanted to share with you here: GoodBelly Probiotic [...]
Not only am I nuts about coconut but the girls are, too. I often give the girls some coconut oil mixed in with their organic dog food and I also give it to them straight out of the jar. I rub it in my cleaned hands to liquify and then let them lick it off [...]
Just last week I heard rumors that Urban Decay, super funky and super cool makeup that once touted, “We don’t test on animals. How could anyone?” has decided to sell their products in China. This is a huge deal because they (China) require cosmetics companies to pay for many of their products to be tested [...]

Tropical Traditions is my go-to place for all things coconut, in case you haven’t noticed! So, when they gave me the opportunity to choose a product I would like to sample, I immediately asked for their Organic Bar Soaps! Made with their Virgin Coconut Oil and essential oils, this soap creates an awesome lather that [...]
Over the past few years I have had some really scarey moments with my health. It’s gotten a little better but not completely. It all started when I had a laparoscopy in 2003 and then again in 2007 because of endometriosis and fibroid tumors. It just continued to go down hill from there. Not only [...]

From Energy Bars to supplements, AmazingGrass.com is a place to go when looking for SuperFoods, which contain tons of vitamins and minerals that help your body get the necessary nutrition. I blogged about a [...]
It’s important to exercise your dogs daily. I know quite a few people who believe that because they have a backyard they don’t have to walk their dogs. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Unless you have an agility area in your backyard, or you are out there throwing a frisbee and balls everyday, [...]
