Back to School Shopping with Walmart

August 12, 2016 by Kathryn 25 Comments

The first day of school. It’s fun, exciting and most of all, a chance for my boys to show off their newest fashions! I love clothes and it’s a love that I’ve passed on to both of my boys. While they’re more than willing to show off the latest looks, they also want comfort for those active recess games they play with their friends. Luckily for me, Walmart has plenty of great clothing that feels as great as it looks!

Personally, I’m a huge fan of the Athletic Works line. Featuring soft, light and comfortable fabrics and exclusive DRI-MORE moisture-wicking technology, these clothes keep kids comfortable through everything from a quick game of tag in the morning to an hour-long game of soccer at lunch. So I headed to Walmart on a mission to find the best recess clothes for my two boys. And as usual, Walmart didn’t disappoint!

I started by looking for clothes for Benjamin, a boy that hates having clothing that’s constricting in any way, yet loves fun, fresh fashion he can show off to his friends. His outfit began with a simple pair of black Athletic Works track pants with a crisp white stripe to liven them up. He loved them because they have such light and comfortable fabric with a simple elastic waistband, while I liked their bold simplicity.

Say Goodbye to Stinky Clothes with New Tide and Downy Odor Shield Laundry Care-Giveaway #MomsShopWalmart

May 11, 2016 by Kathryn 258 Comments

mommy kat and kids rp2

Sweaty gym shorts, dirty work clothes, my oldest son’s baseball uniform…there are some clothes that I know are going to end up extra smelly before they finally end up in the washing machine. And while I would love to have enough time to wash my own sweaty gym top or my fiance’s dirt-encrusted work overalls every single day, that’s just not realistic. Until now, I’d just resigned myself to sometimes having to deal with clothes that stink. But now, Tide and Downy have come up with some fabulous new products to save my nose!

I’ve been a fan of Downy In-Wash Scent Booster for years now. The Lush variety is my personal must-have, and I especially love using it for my sheets and bedding. The sweet hint of vanilla when I climb into bed makes for very sweet dreams. But while Downy In-Wash Scent Booster leaves a delicious long-lasting hint of fragrance in fabrics, it doesn’t actually control odours in any way. And there are times I need a product that does more than just masks unpleasant smells. Some of our clothing seems to start stinking again almost as soon as it’s out of the washer, whether because of the heavy use it gets or because of reblooming scents trapped within the fabric fibres themselves.

That’s where the new Tide and Downy products available at Walmart come in! The perfect scent-eliminating regime starts with Tide PODS plus Febreze Odor Defense. The 4-in-1 laundry detergent pac cleans dirt, residue and surface stains while removing odours with the power of Febreze. For those especially stinky clothes, adding Tide Odor Rescue with Febreze Odor Defense, an in-wash booster that helps eliminate dirt and odours trapped in fabric fibres, helps eliminate the dreaded rebloom.

Three Tips for Back-To-School Beauty from P&G Experts and a Walmart #BeReady2Roar Special Offer-Giveaway #PGMom

August 28, 2015 by Kathryn 233 Comments

When I was a teenager, one of the things that I loved most about going back to school was getting to show off a fun, new look. I was pretty clumsy with makeup in my teen years, but I still had a few must-have products! My favourite was COVERGIRL Pressed Powder in Classic Ivory and I used to love wearing it paired with black eyeliner and lip gloss. It may have been a somewhat gothic look, but it suited me at the time!

Fashions may have changed since my youth, but the thrill of trying new makeup for the big first day back at school is still there! And this year, Walmart is the top stop for all your teen’s favourite beauty products from Pantene, COVERGIRL, Olay and Venus! Even better, COVERGIRL Make-up Pro Veronica Chu and Pantene Consulting Stylist Justin German have some great tips to help your teen make the most of that first day back!

1. Every great beauty look starts with a great regimen

  • Following a daily hair care regimen is the basis of great looking hair! One of the staples of this is a shampoo and conditioner like the Pantene Daily Moisture Renewal Shampoo and Conditioner – I love this collection because it’s designed to repair hair, control moisture levels and prevent damage for a soft, smooth, moisturized feel. This makes it a fantastic option for girls experimenting with new styles and putting their hair through its paces so it looks healthy and strong. – Justin German
  • Similarly, great makeup starts with great skin. For young women in their teens or early twenties, their bodies are still growing and factors like stress and hormonal changes can cause skin to act out. I always recommend following a cleansing routine morning and night, followed by a good moisturizer. One of my favourite cleansers is the Olay Total Effects Refreshing Citrus Face Scrub – the oil free formula won’t clog pores and cleanses without over drying. For a moisturizer, apply the Olay Total Effects Featherweight Moisturizer – I like this one because it’s super light-weight and includes an SPF for added protection. – Veronica Chu

Teach Kids to Give Back with These 3 Easy Tips-Giveaway #CleanWater #PGMom

March 4, 2015 by Kathryn 139 Comments

If there’s one life lesson that I want to be sure to teach my boys, it’s that little actions can end up having a big impact on our communities and on the world. Last year, P&G and Walmart partnered to demonstrate that fact with the Clean Water campaign. For each participating P&G product purchased at Walmart, P&G Children’s Safe Drinking Water provided one day of clean drinking water to those in impoverished countries. This year the campaign is once again in full swing with a goal to provide 25 million days of clean drinking water to those in need.

Obviously buying my favourite P&G products at Walmart is one of the easiest ways I can make a big difference in a small way, but there are plenty of other occasions when small actions can impact the community and the world. These are three methods I’ve found effective for helping my boys understand that fact.

Community Programs

Both of my boys are participating in the Scouts Canada program for the first time this year, and it has been a great way to get them involved in community initiatives in a fun way. When learning about needs vs. wants to earn a badge, the children decided to choose a charity to support and find a way to contribute. The Regina Food Bank was the charity of choice and to make the boys’ contribution especially meaningful, each was encouraged to bring their favourite non-perishable food to donate. I loved the idea of donating a favourite food because it’s also a way of teaching kids how lucky they are to have favourite foods at home when others don’t even have enough to eat. [Read more…]
