Battling the Boogies *Giveaway*

September 24, 2009 by Caryn 

This giveaway is now closed.  Thanks for stopping by.  The winner is Brittney.  Congrats!

As we enter cold and flu season, I’m becoming increasingly vigilant about germs.  Handwashing…check.  Antibacterial gels and wipes…check.  Tylenol and Motrin in case someone DOES get sick…check.  Humidifier…check.  Tissues Boogie Wipes…check!

boogie-wipes-logoMy son has unfortunately inherited my husband’s fairer, more sensitive skin.  But even if he didn’t have sensitive skin, colds always cause red, raw, irritated noses (even when I’m sick!).  Combine that with the fact that he can’t blow his nose and the result is dry nasal secretions that build and build, keeping his little nose all stuffed up!  Like most toddlers, he absolutely despises when I try to wipe his nose.  You’ll never see a toddler run faster!

boogiewipesA few weeks ago we had an opportunity (should I call it an opportunity if your toddler gets sick?) to try Boogie Wipes. These super soft, scented, saline wipes (alliteration?) are great for cleaning noses and dissolving mucus.  Cold, flu and allergy season are all rapidly approaching, particularly with kids returning to school this fall.  Boogie Wipes are available in Great Grape, Fresh Scent, and Magic Menthol (which is great for stuffy noses).  My son’s favorite is the grape (just make sure your children don’t try to eat them!).  And this mom has been found using them as bottom wipes when she forgets to go to the store for baby wipes.  The wipes are moist and soft, which is great for preventing raw noses or soothing irritation.

As a mom concerned about chemicals in baby and kid’s products, I like to know exactly what is in the products I use on my son.  The wipes are free from alcohol, phthalates, and parabens.   The ingredients used to moisturize little noses include Vitamine E, Aloe, and Chamomile (all very gentle, hypoallergenic, and natural).

A pack of 30 wipes retails for $3.99.  Boogie Wipes are available for purchase at a variety of retailers nationwide.

Win It! One of you will win a Boogie Woogie Gift Basket!  Simply head on over to the site and take a look around.  Come back and leave me a comment with something you learned on the site!  Comments will close on October 10, 2009 at 10 pm PST.

    The moist wipes are made with saline and are a gentle alternative to a dry kleenex. They come in three scents. I think that they are a great idea.

    Try warming up a Boogie Wipe when you have a head cold for extra soothing relief and moisture…it really brings out the soothing sensation of the saline and aloe. Let it rest on your nose for a while for maximum Boogie relief.

    I love that they are made alcohol free. SO many things for young children contain alcohol & burn their little skin so badly. The saline is also a good point. I would love to have these available for my grandchildren.
