TruKid Review and Giveaway



When I look for bath and body products for my little “Bug” I always try to find the best products available that work really well and are great smelling but I also look for products that are all natural and organic to help keep unwanted chemicals and such away from my little man! So while looking for some new bath products for “Bug” I happened to come across TruKid and once I read about their products being natural and organic I knew I just had to try them and I was beyond psyched when they agreed to let me review some of their products and host a giveaway right here on The Cartoon Lovin’ Mama!

Our Thoughts:

I was sent a variety of products from TruKid to review well rather “Bug” was sent them to review and I couldn’t wait to try them out and once they arrived we immediately started trying them out!

The first products we decided to try out was the TruKid Silly Shampoo, TruKid Cool Conditioner, TruKid Friendly Face Wash and the TruKid Dancing Detangler and I am very please with both the light fragrance that these products have which isn’t overwhelming and the result we got by using it on “Bug’s” hair! Since starting to use the TruKid hair care products I’ve noticed that “Bug’s” hair is much more manageable and he has a whole lot less flyaway’s! The one thing that I have noticed that has truly made me a believer in TruKid hair care products is that even with “Bug” being almost 3 he has always had cradle cap pretty bad and we haven’t been able to get rid of it but since starting to use TruKid and after just a few washes and usage I’ve noticed that just about all of his cradle cap is gone and he doesn’t complain about his head itching like he did because of the dry cradle cap! So I just want to say a huge thank you to Jennifer and TruKids for helping with a problem I thought we would always have!

Next we tried the TruKid Happy Face & Body Lotion, TruKid Sunny Days SPF 30+ natural Sunscreen and the Sunny Days SPF 30+ Face Stick and I’m just as pleased with these three products as I was the hair care products we were sent! Again the scent of these products is very light and smells very pleasant unlike other kids lotions and sunscreens! We haven’t had a whole lot of sunny days here in Arkansas lately but I have still used both the sunscreen and face stick on “Bug” because we spend a lot of time outdoors and I just want to make sure he is safe and to be honest the cloudy days are always the best days to get a sunburn! I’m loving the TruKid Happy Face & Body Lotion and I not only use it on “Bug” I use it on my face as well because it doesn’t cause my face to breakout like other face lotions that I have tried in the past and for “Bug” it works great leaving his skin so soft!

Bottom Line:

I’m extremely happy we have discovered TruKid Natural & Organic skin and hair care and I could not be happier with the result we have gotten especially from the hair care products that has helped us rid “Bug” of his cradle cap we have been battling for nearly 3 years! I can not say enough good things about the TruKid products we reviewed and they have now become a permanent addition to “Bug’s” bath time routine and I will be placing an order for more hair care products really soon!

If you are a parent like me that wants only the best bath and body products for your little ones and want them to be free of nasty chemicals and would like them to be all natural and organic I really recommend checking out TruKid products, after our experience I feel that you will really love them as much as we do!
