Tried and Tested

So I've had quite a few people ask me:

Who tests your products?
What do you look for in a product before it passes your standards?
Do the companies sponsor you to test their products?

A) I test our products, my husband tests out the things i can not (ie shaving gel) and also double tests items for me, the baby related products are tested on my bub.

 Once I have narrowed down the list to about 2-3 items I then pass them on to family members or friends who are highly critical and can give me a very detailed analysis. It also helps to test the products out to see what other people are looking for in a product, whether it worked for them etc.

B) -The products need to fall under one or more than one of the following categories - Eco-friendly, Natural or Organic. 
- The product needs to be affordable
- The product is not tested on animals 
- Preferably made in Australia 
-Needs to work!
- Is easy to use and convenient because we all know how busy life can get. 
- There are many more things that i look for but i don't want to bore you! 

C) No, I do this purely out of love, I have never been sponsored by a company. And i don't plan on changing that, I will stock their product if it works for me and adhere's to the above. 

Occasionally a company or a small business will send me a sample to try out, otherwise I purchase all the products that I try out at full price. 

If you have a product that is eco-friendly, natural or organic please contact me as i am always on the lookout for more products. 

I hope I've answered all the questions and queries and cleared up any misconceptions you might have had =D

Our website is almost done so keep your eyes peeled.



Much love
