This is not what I was planning on posting today, but when I received the email with the 30% off for 3 days, I decided it was only fair to share with you all (I have no affiliation with this company at all – I just love the products and wanted to pass  along a promotion)…so I moved this entry up on the post list.

Now I definitely need to start off by saying that I’m not making any claims to the fact that air brushed perfection can be reached by using any of the Mama Mio products, but smarter people than me in the Beauty & Fashion world have done their fair share of research for you.  What I will say is that if there is a product out there that says it will lift my boobs, shrink my backside, or trim my tummy (GOOD LUCK!) then I’m game to try it!

A fabulous friend’s mom gave me a Congratulation Kit from Mama Mio when we first found out we were pregnant with Addie.  It included lots of fun goodies – Tummy Rub Oil, Body Cream, and Shower Cream.  My first thought was. “How sweet!”.  Then when I opened the products up and took a sniff,  my second thought was “I’ve died and gone to Heaven!”, then I used the products the next morning and my third thought was, “OMG I’ve been to a spa, and now have the softest skin ever, and I wasn’t even awake to remember going!!”  Seriously, everything smelled SOOOO delicious (in a non overwhelming, I think I’m the most amazing person in the world at this very moment way), my skin was unbelievably soft….my husband kept touching my arms in awe, “Is that really your arm, my wonderful, but scaleydryskinfromhades wife???”

I was hooked and quickly Googled them to find their site and what other products they had.

For the Expectant mom, these are the products I love and have used for 3 years: Tummy Rub Butter, Tummy Rub Oil, Boob Tube, OMega Super-Rich Body Cream, OMega Shower Cream (with a loofah or something to “scrub” your skin).  Not to say that I use everyday, that would be insane to think I could apply 24 x 7!!  But I have them for when I want them and LOVE to use them!

As a non pregnant mom (wait, have I been that person in the past 3 years???  OK for a total of 5 months over the entire 3 year period, which is definitely not long enough to enjoy cocktails, let alone long enough to give you an honest write up.  However, the many beauty editors can…) here are some of the products that are receiving rave reviews, Bootcamp for Butts (WHO CAN HELP but try something called BOOTCAMP FOR BUTTS??  It’s a little pricey for me, but I could be tempted with the 30% – 3 day promo and it includes all these products… Shrink to Fit, Tummy Toner, and Omega Body Buff). Then you have to check out Get Waisted that was named in Bazaar’s Best of the Best 2009.  (Great video explaining why it worked for them, BTW on the Get Waisted page.)

So all this to say that I think it’s worth checking out.  Great holiday gifts, great birthday gifts, great baby shower gift, great “just because”gift for yourself.  The 30% off promotion ends midnight, Thursday -  November 5th.  Enter code “MAGIC” during checkout at Mama Mio. I’m off to place my order now!!
