Lusa Organics Review and Giveaway!

This morning was COLD here in Wisconsin. Not as cold as it's going to get, but cold enough that my kids' hats and mittens felt absolutely necessary. And before they head out, there's nothing better than LuSa Organics Cheek & Chin Balm to keep those cheeks from getting *too* rosy in the chilly wind. When little noses run, it also keeps the skin from getting raw due to constant wiping. Slather it on baby's chin to keep teething drool from irritating that tender skin.

When my kids get sick in the cooler weather, it's usually accompanied by mucous. Runny noses can wreak havoc on more than the respiratory tract. My kids get really rashy when they're sick, and LuSa Booty Balm is an awesome solution to any red bottom. I use it so consistently (as preventative) that the lovely smell will forever be ingrained with me as the smell of my children. It's fantastic as a skinned knee salve, cracked winter hands moisturizer, and so much more. I've even used it to treat cuts and scrapes on our dog (she was pretty beat up when we rescued her) as I knew it would be safe for her to lick and ingest!

LuSa Organics is one of my favorite companies not only because of the AWESOME products they make, but also because they're a local (to us here in Wisconsin), small family business. I want to mention that this small business is up for a BIG award -- a Best of Mothering award from Mothering.com! Please feel free to support a fantastic company by voting here: http://www.mothering.com/community/t/1336047/best-of-mothering-personal-care-baby-run-off-poll It's free and easy to register, and voting closes December 2nd at 5pm (PT).
