Moms, it’s time to pamper yourself with bright ideas from P&G’s Have You Tried This Yet? program. We know your to-do list is long but you need to be sure to pencil in some much needed R & R for yourself! P&G offers these tips:
Mommy, Mommy!: How to Bring Back “Me Time” into Your Everyday
- Treat yourself to a new summer dress or that colorful purse you’ve been eyeing at the mall!
- Why go to the spa when you can bring the spa home to you? Stock your at-home salon with products like:
- Olay® Smooth Finish Facial Hair Removal Duo: this innovative, gentle 2-step system gives you smooth, visibly hair-free skin.
- Head & Shoulders® Damage Rescue Shampoo and Conditioner: Together, these high-performing products condition to nourish damaged hair and help relieve dry scalp.
- Break the rules! Why stop at chapter 10? Stay up late and read your new page-turner cover to cover.
- Revamp your beauty routine with COVERGIRL + Olay® Tone Rehab™ 2-in-1 Foundation. With just one pump, it instantly covers discolorations, lines and wrinkles. One bottle hydrates to help improve skin tone over time!
- Every morning, pencil in some time to simply relax. That’s right! Give yourself 30 minutes right before bed or after dinner to do absolutely nothing but relax and regroup.
La Familia: Making the Most Out of Family Time
- On a hot day, get the family together and create your very own family ice cream flavor! Have each family member choose a component of the ice cream (i.e. sprinkles, chopped up cookies, chocolate sauce, etc.) and enjoy!
- Take an every day activity, like brushing your teeth, and make it a family affair for you and the kids to brush your teeth together! Don’t forget to use the following oral care products when brushing your pearly whites:
- Crest® 3D White Glamorous White Toothpaste: Say cheese everyone! This product removes 80%of surface stains
- Oral-B® Glide White Radiant Mint Floss Picks: Flossing just got easier! This innovative product slides up to 50% more easily in tight spaces vs. the leading floss pick.
- Create a new family tradition! Have the kids come up with ideas and vote on a winner. It will be something that is unique to your family that can be passed on from generation to generation.
- Family videos are a great wait to capture new memories and revisit the old. Put a spin on your home videos and conduct family interviews. What questions will you ask?
Make your house a home! Check out these fun and mom-friendly décor tips for your home.
A Mother’s Touch: How to Give Your Home Some Extra Attention
- Nothing screams holiday like a seasonal wreath! This year, add a Summer themed wreath to your rotation. Include flowers to make it feel extra seasonal.
- Bring Mother Nature into your home! Floral print lamp shades or earth toned pillows on your couch are small décor changes you can make that will transform your home during this season.
- Summer is a great time to start a vegetable garden in your yard. It will teach your family the importance of eating healthy while cutting down your grocery list!
Be sure to check out what Have You Tried This Yet? spokesperson, Vanessa Lachey, and the Trend Trio on www.pgtryit.com.
My personal favorite P&G items from the ones featured here are the Crest 3D Whilte Glamorous White toothpaste. It’s one of the easiest beauty products around since you’re brushing your teeth daily anyway! I also love the Oral -B Glide White Radiant Mint Floss Picks because they make flossing SO much easier! The Olay Facial Hair Remover Duo works surprisingly well. I probably never would have tried it if I hadn’t received the sample, but I’m glad I did! Super fast and easy to use, this product removed hair from my upper lip without any irritation. It’s the quick little things that make a difference and P&G is in tune with that!

I’m not beyond giving my kids fast food. I do try to limit it, but hey, we’re busy and sometimes convenience matters! Dairy Queen has an awesome deal this summer, perfect for moms on the run. They are offering a value meal that includes an entrée, fries, drink and sundae for just $5. DQ’s also unveiled eight new flavors of Orange Julius smoothies – 170 calories and made with real fruit — are a tasty way for moms and kids to stay fit this summer. Now I just wish we had a DQ a little closer to home!

My children have never really had a fear of the dark. In fact, just the opposite. The like to sleep with their doors closed and prefer the darkness. That being said, they’ve always loved light up toys, flashlights etc. Day or night, they are drawn to toys with lights. I tend to like them as well because all three of my kids play nicely together when these types of toys are involved. For kids who have a fear of the dark, light up toys can be a lifesaver.
Children’s products that are multi-functional can be handy tools. By day, Cloud B Twilight Carz is a fun toy with rolling wheels and light up headlights and taillights. Kids will enjoy wheeling it around on driving adventures. By night, the car projects a magical starry night sky in your child’s room and offers comfort with it’s friendly face. The long lasting LED lights stay cool and help conserve the life of the three AAA batteries that are included. This toy can help ease your child’s fear of the dark. The Cloud B Twilight Carz Red Lightening nightlight retails for around $33.
Our favorite features of Twilight Carz were the star and lightening bolt patterns that are projected and the way you can change the color of the shapes from red to blue with just the touch of a button made to look like a taillight. A 45 minute timer makes sure that the lights are turned off if your child happens to fall a sleep with it on. It’s a really neat toy that my kids love with the potential as a problem solver for kids with sleep problems.
