TruKid Review and Giveaway

TruKid is a kids skincare company that sells sunscreen, soaps and moisturizers. All of their products are made just for kids and are all natural and completely chemical free. TruKid was started by a mother of six who wanted to have safe skincare products for her kids. TruKid products are made from organic ingredients and completely natural fragrances from essential oils. Their products are also gluten free. The TruKid site also lists all of their ingreients and they explain what every ingredient is and what it does in the product.

Their products are also made just for kids. They have quick and easy application, their scents are kid friendly and their products have a light texture. The company is very concerned with teaching kids healthy skincare habits and making their product kid friendly. Not only are their products kid friendly, but their labels. are very kid friendly as well. All of their products carry a smart label. The smart label has pictures to let kids know where the product should be used. Ther TruKid site also has great tips, songs and check lists to get your child interested in healthy skincare habits.




TruKid sent me four products to review: Silly Shampoo, helping Hand Wash, Happy Face and Body Lotion and Sunny Days Sunscreen.



When I opened the box my son and daughter were veyr excited. I immediately placed the hand soap in their bathroom. Right away my son said he needed to use the bathroom (which I think was only because he wanted to use his new soap!) He told me he really liked his new soap. Later that night I washed both children's hair with the shampoo. My children hate to have their hair washed and I always have a huge battle on my hands, especially with my son. I washed my son's hair and he told me I could wash his hair every night if I used his special new shampoo. After a couple of weeks of rain (and the days that it did not rain it was too cold to take the kids outside) we finally had a sunny day and I was able to use the sunscreen. The sunscreen was easy to apply and had the same scent as the other skincare products we receieved which was a nice change from the normal sunscreen we purchase. The loition was also very easy to applu and rubbed in so easily. All the products had a light fruity scent, which I found very pleasing. I do not like strong scents in skincare products, especially floral scents since they normally make my eyes and my kids' eyes itchy.

I could really tell a difference between Trukid's products and other skincare products not made specially for children. They are so much easier to apply and contain recognizable ingredietn.s Their scent are more pleasing and not overhwelming. I was very pleased with thier products. I felt much safer using their products on my children, since I could recognize most of the ingredients and the ones I did not recognize I could look up on their site. My kids also loved their products (especially my 4 1/2 year old). I would definately recommend their products to other parents.

Buy It! You can purchase TruKid products on their website.
