Crunchy Mamas Review & Giveaway

Well, if you have been a follower of this blog for any length of time then you will notice that I am a fan of natural products. Whether it be natural cleaning products, natural baby products or natural beauty products, I pretty much try to keep you (my lovely readers) up to speed on what I have discovered. I am totally in love with so many different types of natural products, I just can't help but share these fantastic finds with all of you. Today, it is time to introduce you to my latest discovery and let me tell you...it is a LOVELY company!

Whenever you hear the term "Crunchy" and it is not in reference to food, you are probably about to find out about something natural and earth-friendly. Crunchy Mamas is a company that makes all natural products for you and for your family---hygienically speaking. Crunchy Mamas was founded by - you guessed it - two mamas who have a love and a passion for all things natural! From their website, here is a bit more about Katie and Ashley...

I'm Ashley (pictured on the left), the frazzled, frizzy haired, stay-at-home Crunchy Mama. I have three little men, a bun in the oven (yep, this little food monger is a boy too), and a handsome ginger that keep me company. I've been making my own toiletries and personal hygiene products for my family for years and I was thrilled when the opportunity presented itself for Katie and I to spread the goods.

Hi, I'm Katie (pictured on the right). I am a crunchy mother and wife to husband Dustin and two kids, Bean and Ida. Then there are the 4 dogs, cat, cows, chickens and whatever other critters I'm forgetting. I began my quest towards crunchiness, God and homemaking all at the same time, 4 years ago. It's been an amazing, yet bumpy road that finally landed me at developing Crunchy Mamas with my sis Ashley. Ashley and I met when I married her brother 10 years ago and we are mutually crazy/weird. We began creating the products we either couldn't find or were dissatisfied with. Crunchy Mamas was born when we realized others were interested in what these two, simple Moms had to offer.

My personal desire for Crunchy Mamas is to provide you with chemical free, down to earth products using only the best ingredients. Thank you so much for allowing me the privilege of doing something that I love for you. I am having so much fun creating Crunchy Mamas goods and can't wait to see where the road takes us next!

Mmmmmmmmm...I just love mommy-founded companies. They truly are some of the best companies because moms always know best! I trust the products that come out of these companies and Crunchy Mamas is no exception. They have proved to me that they truly have my best interest at heart.

So, for this review I was sent some lovely products to try and just wait until you hear the names of these products...TOTALLY cute! :) I was sent... Crusty Foot, Honey Lemon Lip Balm, Smelly Face Serum and Grapefruit Hand Sanitizer. Ha ha...don't you just LOVE the names?!?

First, I tried the Honey Lemon Lip Balm. You can really taste the natural honey in this balm and it also applies very easily and smoothly. It isn't hard at all but is actually kind of creamy in texture...not at all waxy either. I also love the fact that they printed a Bible verse reference on this stick...and it is for Psalm 141:3 which reads... "Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips." I love it. Such a great reminder to always watch what we say and I can be reminded of that each time I use this lip balm. :) The All Natural Lip Balm retails for $3.

OK. So, I don't typically make it a habit to put pictures up of my feet HOWEVER, I wanted to show you my Crusty Foot in action. This product is sooo wonderful and I will tell you why. It is made out of the following ingredients: organic enrefined coconut oil, beeswax, vitamin e, organic hemp seed oil, organic tamanu oil, organic chamomile essential oil, organic lavender essential oil, organic patchouli essential oil. Crusty Foot is like foot balm in a tube...non-greasy, easy to apply and it smells luscious. If you like "earthy" scented products than this one is for you! Within several minutes of applying this balm to my feet, my feet felt nourished and softer than they had been. I love to use this at night before bed because my feet can rest and be restored while I sleep. Crusty Foot retails for $7.

The Smelly Face Serum (not for use when you are pregnant) is also a lovely product from Crunchy Mamas and this is meant to be applied to your skin after bathing or cleansing. One of the things I love about this serum is that it is not greasy at all. It is meant for all skin types so if you have dry or oily skin, this is beneficial to you! Containing pure and organic essential oils this serum is great for combating wrinkles, age spots, UV damage, acne, dark circles and much more! I tend to have issues with blackheads and breakouts especially when I am dealing with PMS and I have found that this serum is really nourishing to my skin. It smells lovely and really does aid in keeping the skin soft and smooth. Smelly Face Serum retails for $19.

Last but not least I am thoroughly loving and appreciating the Grapefruit Hand Sanitizer. I find myself lacking hand sanitizer at the most inopportune times and am so grateful for this particular product. For anyone who is a mom...YOU NEED THIS! Stick it in your diaper bag, glove box, purse and stroller-it is wonderful to have on hand! My little ones are constantly touching things that are dirty so it is nice to have this on hand. I love the fact that it is a spray bottle so that I can spray it on my children's hands. It is easy to use, fragrant and organic hand sanitizer and, best of all, it is affordable. This Hand Sanitizer (which comes in Grapefruit or Lavender-Lemon scent) retails for just $5.

Crunchy Mamas also carries other wonderful products such as Deet-free Bug Off , Baby Butt Balm, Scab Stick and so much more. You can be sure that whatever you order from Crunchy Mamas will be organic and very high quality. Thinking ahead, how about considering Crunchy Mamas for your Christmas gift list? Many of their products are small enough to fit in a stocking and would be a great gift. Just wanted to put the idea out there. :) Be sure to check out Crunchy Mamas on Facebook and also on Twitter! These two gals always have something fun up their sleeves.

Also, especially for my readers, if you use the coupon code "sally", you will get 10% off your purchase! YAAY! :)
