Product Review & Giveaway - Putto Moisture Wet Wipes

~ Posted on Saturday, November 24, 2012 at 9:10 AM ~

I received an email from Applecrumby & Fish asking whether I would be interested to review one of the products range in their store and oh boy, who am I to say no to trying out awesome products for my family and I right?! So here goes my review for the "Putto Moisture Wet Wipes (20 sheets)":

Description from the product page:
"Putto Moisture Wet Wipes is alcohol free and contains NHEB-05TM (Natural Herbal Extract Blended), B-Glucan and Ceramide for that quick clean.

 Putto Moisture Wet Wipes is suitable for all skin types especially dry and sensitive skin. Convenient during outings for baby's diaper changes and general clean-ups after meals or activities. Made of premium quality, Putto Secret Wet Wipes are wider than your usual wet wipes' dimension, making it easier for clean ups and saving you on quantity per usage. Putto Moisture Wet Wipes is free from Parabens, SLS, SLES and Mineral Oils. "

The baby wipes that I am reviewing this time is Putto Moisture Wet Wipes - 20 sheets. Actually it feels much thicker than 20 sheets, I had to double-triple checked the packaging to confirm that I am indeed getting the 20 sheets pack. The lid is easy to open and I like the packaging colors as well (I'm a sucker for pink colors stuff I guess!) The wipes are easy to pull out and I can immediately feel the wet moisture on the wipes.

There is a subtle tinge of lemony/citrusy smell on the wipes and each wipe is thick. I actually tried to tear the wipes apart, pulling and pulling it but yet, it remains unchanged. Very strong! The wipes is about 7 inch by almost 6 inch in size. Picture below is the close-up shot of the baby wipes.

The plus point in this product is that it is suitable for all skin types especially dry and sensitive skin and is free from Parabens, SLS, SLES and Mineral Oils.

One thing that I would like to suggest is for the packaging to have instructions or labelling in English. The baby wipes that I am reviewing has Korean language all over it which I don't understand and I had to read up on the ingredients and instructions from the website. I've passed on this feedback to the sponsor who in turns explained "As for the English labelling, it is actually available on the packaging for the 80 and 60 sheet ones. The 20 sheets one is a little small in packaging, hence Putto did not stick it on."

Oppa Gangnam Style? Op-Pa-leaseeeee Go Away!

~ Posted on Friday, November 23, 2012 at 7:36 AM ~

I have no idea when or how this Oppa Gangnam craze started but just to be frank, we are not yet affected by this craze.

Sure, 1 month ago a nephew of ours was playing the song on his iPad and busy memorising and singing along to the chorus of the song. I just tuned out of the song before I requested our nephew to please not play this song as I do not want Benjamin and Alyson to be affected by it. Nope, nephew continues singing along.

I then pulled my boy away somewhere else and tried my best to distract him from sitting next to his cousin brother. It works and I'm glad.

Again, apart from that brief moment of listening to our nephew singing along to the chorus (the Oppa Gangnam style line), we are still pure from this hahaha...

I also skipped and scrolled away when I see friends posting about the latest Gangnam video clips on Facebook. Not interested at all. Really.

Hubby said that the music video is not suitable for children to be watching. I don't know, I have never watch it at all. I just want to say 'Op-Pa-leaseeeeeeee go away!'

What do you think of this craze?

iPad App Review - Witzy’s Friends Forever

~ Posted on Thursday, November 22, 2012 at 9:32 PM ~

I received a pitch to review this app early this month, as we were slowly transitioning our 3.5 years old boy to be by himself in his Sunday schools (1.5 hours) so I thought there might be something I could use to teach my boy on friendship and making friends. Anyway, my review as below...

* It is engaging and interactive and I love the beautiful illustrations! It actually reminds me of my childhood when Care Bears was a craze then!

* I like the storyline where it tells how Witzy go through his journey for everlasting friendship with his friends.

* There is a cute game which you can play along while you go through the story app where you look for 'Tickles' (I actually realised it is ladybug we are supposed to be looking for... was wondering what could be Tickles in this story initially until I re-read the story again and saw the front cover of the story app showing a ladybug!)
