Holiday Gift Guide 2011: Plagentra Skin Care Products for Mom & Baby {review and giveaway}
My baby boy has sensitive skin so I’m always on the look out for ways and products to use that will ease any discomfort that he may have. I wash his clothes with special detergent. I use wipes specifically for sensitive skin to wipe his face and bottom. All my sons clothes are completely tag free. I apply lotion to his skin at least twice a day. And during bath time, I use products specifically created to gently cleanses and moisturizes itchy, extra dry skin.
My latest brag worthy skin care products for both mom and baby would have to be from the company Plagentra.They have a entire skin and body product line created specifically to relieve common skin care issues such as eczema, stretch marks, and acne.
This company won awards in…
- Number one in stretch mark care (2011 Korea Satisfaction Consumer Index)
- Number one brand for moms and babies (2010 Korea Satisfaction Consumer Index)
- 2011 best luxury skincare brand (Korean Governments Department of Ministry of Women and Family)
After seeing that these products contain absolutely no steroids, colorants, alcohol, or perfumes, I was quite excited to use them. I was sent two full sized products to review from this company and several samples of their other products. I picked the Foaming Facial Wash for myself and the Mild Wash to use for my son to share my thoughts on.
The Foaming Facial Wash is an excellent make up remover and my total go to wash at the end and the beginning of the day. This facial wash is easy to use and very gentle on my skin. It goes on smooth and rinses off very easily which is a must for any foaming cleansers. I can vouch to have had some bad experiences with foaming washes! I’m so glad I had a great experience with this one.
The fine micro beads in this cleanser do an excellent job of exfoliating skin without being to rough removing unwanted dead skin, dirt, and oils. The scent of this product fragrance free so it’s great for those sensitive to certain smells. My skin looks and feels great after use without sacrificing a thing! I would highly recommend using the Foaming Facial Wash & after such a great experience with it, I am excited about trying out and using the other Mom offered skin care products such as lotions and soaps!
The Mild Wash I’ve been using on my 10 month old son for a week now and will have to vouch that his skin has been so much better! So much better that I’ve seen no itching or scratching of any kind! I don’t even have to use that much either. I simply use the handy pump top bottle to squeeze about a nickel size amount onto a cloth or my hand to cleanse my son. The wash lathers nicely and rinses just as well. And the scent is very refreshing!
This wash is a great supplemental treatment for moisturizing dry skin, such as atopic eczema in infants and adults, psoriasis, ichthyosis, senile pruritus. And it’s formulated to be the same PH as your skin, our body wash soothes skin while keeping it soft and supple. I would highly recommend this product and I plan on purchasing more soon to use on both my kids!
I would highly recommend checking out this company and am excited Plagentra products are available in the US and Canada! Plagentra has an entire skin and body care system, from lotions to soaps, oils to creams, there’s something there for all your skin needs! If you’d like to try before you buy, you can request FREE SAMPLES right from their website.

2011 Holiday Gift Guide Feature: Lip Moisturizers from Tropical Traditions {Review + Giveaway}}
Tropical Traditions offers some of the best 100% Organic Lip Moisturizers that I’ve ever tried out. And why I prefer their brand to other companies is because all ingredients are edible and certified organic. Each lip moisturizer is manufactured from organic virgin coconut oil in which I’ve read has amazing benefits for your body. 
I was given the opportunity to try out a variety of Lip Moisturizers from Tropical Traditions. I found the flavors of the added essential oils wasn’t over the top but just the right amount was added. Application to my lips spread easily and the lip product wasn’t too oily! It lasted for hours of protection and made my lips feel and look great!
Tropical Traditions Organic Lip Moisturizers are available in the following flavors…
- Peppermint/Cinnamon (My favorite and perfect for use during the holiday season)
- Orange/Cinnamon
- Tea Tree Oil
- Citrus (My husband has claimed this flavor)
- Unscented (Great for those who may be allergic or sensitive to fragrances)
Overall, I’m a fan of Tropical Traditions lip moisturizers and for the price of 2.75 for each .15 ounce tube these are quite a steal! They’ve been fantastic in keeping not just my lips but my husband and kids lips protected too. Tropical Traditions Organic Lip Moisturizers would make the perfect stocking stuffer and just a little extra something to add to another gift to friends and family this Holiday Season.
