Review: Sterimar Nasal Hygiene Spray

Sterimar is a natural seawater spray that is sterilized and made isotonic for daily nasal hygiene. Its gentle micro-diffusion spray is delivered through a shaped nozzle that fits any nose, even a baby. Sterimar has no preservatives and is drug free. Relief of nasal congestion associated with: 

* hayfever and allergies 
* sinusitis 
* colds 
* post operative nasal care.

My Reviews
Pros:

• Effective in Clearing blocked nose
• Safe for babies
• Moisturises Nose 

Cons:

• Difficult to press
• Challenging to give to a baby

Overall: I was prescribed this when my baby had "colds". I'm not sure why they didnt prescribe me the sterimar baby when Baby yo was still under 3 months. Well, he had runny nose and he always had blocked nose. Maybe it was allergies but I just couldn't figure it out. This product helped me alot by easing his congestion specially when he was about to feed. it helped him fuss less and get over the whole block nose saga and be done with it. 

Rating: 4/5

Tips: Sit or stand a baby when using this. I laid him down, which was not actually supposed to. Well, the doctor didn't tell me. Get the sterimar baby for babies instead of the adult one. No side effects or bad reaction even if i used the wrong one.

Will I repurchase?: Yes

Review: California Baby Calendula Cream

Calendula Cream Nature's First-Aid!® 
California Baby® Calendula Cream is excellent for use on general diaper area and may be used on face and body for extra-dry or sensitive skin. Botanically based, our light and fluffy Calendula Cream contains the ingredient of Calendula, which has been used to soothe the skin for centuries. California Baby® Calendula Cream offers deep hydration, absorbs completely, and leaves skin feeling satiny smooth. Use daily for everyday protection and especially when the air is dry and baby's skin needs relief. The entire family can benefit from this soothing, multi-purpose cream. 

My Review:
Pros:

• Contains organic and sustainably grown vegan ingredients 
• Soothing
• Great for Rashes, Baby acne, and diaper area 
• Hypo-allergenic 
• Works very well on dry and chapped skin 
• Light and fluffy consistency
• Absorbs fast and not greasy
• Great Smell

Cons:

• Expensive!

Overall: If you ask me for the best all around treatment cream, this is #1! My baby had baby acne, heat rash and diaper rash and when I use this, results could be seen fast. I was very happy with this product and used it religiously all over his body everyday. However, the tub was all gone in less than a month. I knew I had to try different products to see which ones could be comparable or cheaper. 

Rating: 5/5

Tips: Its best to apply soothing creams after bath and re-apply through out the day if there are dry patches or agitated rashes on babies skin. If you have used a product for a week and no better results, it means its not working. 

Will I repurchase?: Definitely! Yes

Recommended age?: 0+

Review: Pupsik Studio Pupsik Pouch Sling in Tanzanite

Pupsik baby pouches are all made from stretchable cotton sateen that is soft and comfortable to use. Our stylish pouches come in 4 different sizes to suit the person using the pouch. The same size can be used on the same baby from birth till toddler (professionally tested up to 16kg). You will be changing the carry position of baby in the pouch (from a cradle carry to sitting position) to suit him as he grows. Below are instructions of different wearing.

My Review:

Pros:

• All the Benefits of Baby Wearing 
• Easy to wear/assemble
• Easy to keep in the bag and carry around
• Washes easily
• Long lasting
• Cooling

Cons:

• Shoulder and Back ache when you carry your baby for long
• It could get uncomfortable when the baby grows bigger

Overall: I enjoy carrying my baby in this pouch when we are outdoors, the longest i have carried him in it was 10 hours. He prefers this more than his stroller. I carry him in it when he is fussy at home as well but this is on rare occasion when he wants to be carried all the way. I enjoy this carrier the best than most of the carriers out there. 

Rating: 5/5

Tips: Be careful when you put baby in the carrier, always make sure that the baby is secure in the carrier before going hands free. Re-adjust if you feel uncomfortable as this means that the baby is uncomfortable as well. Always support your baby just in case of any accidents. Make sure that the baby has a good air flow. 

Recommended age: 2months+

Review: Nuk Baby Wipes

        

My Review:
Pros:

• Extra thick and strong so poop don't transfer to your fingers
• Extra soft on baby's bum
• Fragrance free
• Reseal-able pack
• Can be used for fresh-up wipes
• Size: 18.0cm x 20.0cm
• 80 wipes per pack
• Comes in mini size pack for 10pcs

Cons:

• No hard top cover for better freshness

Overall: I have tried the most popular ones like pigeon, Johnsons and huggies but this is my favourite so far. Its funny cause I have to think twice when I wanna buy other brands cause I know i'm just asking for trouble when i know that he will get rashes if I switch to other brands. The thickness is nice because the poop doesn't leak through which is gross cause you'll hand will have poop and the smell of it lingers! 

Rating: 5/5

Tips: Always remember to close the seal to maintain freshness. Use wipes case to store wipes when travelling out of the house to lessen the bulk in the bag

Will i repurchase?: Yes!
