Christmas Gift Guide: Anti Monkey Butt Powder Review and Giveaway

For many, stocking stuffers are the toughest gifts to find. You want something inexpensive because you have so many things to buy before the stocking is truly stuffed. On the other hand, kids and young adults (and even some grownups) look forward to their stocking stuffers even more than the gifts under the tree. Here’s a practical stocking stuffer idea perfect for everyone in the family:

Anti Monkey Butt Powder has a funny name with a serious mission. This is no ordinary powder! It’s specially formulated with Calamine to not only absorb sweat, but to also reduce itching, burning, heat rash, as well as other skin irritations.

Not sure if you’ve had monkey butt? The chances are pretty good that you’ve had it at least a time or two. So, what exactly is monkey butt? It’s a term used by some motorcycle riders to describe the soreness and redness that occurs after long bike rides. If you have to walk bowlegged like a monkey to prevent your skin from rubbing together, you have Monkey Butt!

Anti-Monkey Butt is new to me and my family and we are absolutely loving it! Sure, my fascination grew before I even had a chance to try it. The monkeys on the packaging make me giggle like a little girl. My 2-year old also enjoys the clever monkey design. As for my husband – he could care less that a funny monkey was on the bottle. He’s tried several products in the past that never worked, so he was willing to give Anti Monkey Butt Powder a try.

Anti Monkey Butt Powder comes in 3 amazing formulas: Original, Lady, and Baby. We received all but the Baby Anti Monkey Butt powder. My husband uses the Original Anti-Monkey Butt Powder before heading out to work. We live in Texas, where it’s still hot out, and he works in construction. He’s had severe “monkey butt” on countless occasions. We’ve tried everything from baby powder, to diaper rash cream, petroleum jelly, and women’s chaffing gel – nothing worked! He began using his powder as soon as we received it and the bottle is empty – so it definitely works! The powder is light and has a light calamine aroma . It applies just as baby powder would but it seems to create an invisible layer of  protection. It provides a nice, gentle cooling sensation and keeps monkey butt where it should be- on monkeys!

The Lady Anti-Monkey Butt Powder is perfect for women who experience chafed thighs. It has a light feminine aroma and is very silky smooth and light. I’m not a powder person, but I’m hooked on Anti-Monkey! This powder has been my best friend during the past several weeks. It has the same cool and light feeling as the original formula, yet the texture leaves my skim very silky. I just sprinkle a little Lady Anti Monkey on in the morning and I stay fresh, dry, cool and comfortable all day long. You can apply this powder in places you sweat or typically chafe from the bottom of your feet all the way to your underarms (if necessary). 

Anti Monkey Butt is available in mass retailers nationwide, as well as via online retailers and at www.antimonkeybutt.com. Suggested retail value: $5.95 for a 6-ounce bottle.

Rubbermaid Reveal Spray Mop Review & Giveaway

Spray mops are a definite must have in household cleaning products. They’re easy to use and they get the job done quickly without the high price tag. Rubbermaid has recently introduced the Rubbermaid Reveal Spray Mop, or what I like to call “my new best friend.” The Rubbermaid Reveal Mop is unlike any other mop on the market. It doesn’t require expensive replacement pads. Instead, it includes reusable and washable microfiber pads. And forget about the hassle that comes along with the need to replace batteries! Instead of batteries, the Rubbermaid Reveal Mop uses a spray trigger which saves money and allows you to control the amount of solution that is distributed.

Tired of mops that limit you to one or two surfaces? This has been a huge concern of mine for quite some time. Why should I have to use a different cleaning tool for each room of my house? Well, I shouldn’t and neither should you. Rubbermaid Reveal is designed to leave your floor sparkling clean on virtually any type of surface, including wood, tile, vinyl and laminate.

From my experience, most spray mops come with a premade solution. One of the great features with the Reveal Mop is the ability to customize your own cleaning solution. The bottle allows you to use water alone, or mix two tablespoons of your favorite cleaner with warm water and you’re ready to go! My favorite solution includes a mixture of lemon juice and warm water which gives my hardwood floors a nice zesty fragrance and leaves them sparkling clean every time. The refillable spray bottle is an ingenious idea that not only saves time but saves money too!

I never thought I would be excited about a mop, but the Reveal Wet Mopping Pad is unlike any mop pad I have ever seen. The microfiber mop pad is wider and thicker than tradition mop pads which allows you to pick up 50% more dirt and dust than traditional mops. The Reveal Pads are plush, durable, thick, and reusable! Rubbermaid suggests one pad will last through 100 cycles in a standard washing machine! I did find it to be super absorbent and can be used several times before washing. The pads stay attached to the Reveal Mop securely, yet can be easily removed after each use. They can be washed by hand or tossed in the washing machine.

I would like to see a rubber grip on the handle to help keep the mop from falling over when propped  against the wall. It does however have a metal loop attached for hanging when not in use. While the Reveal Mop is great for women of an average height, it may tend to be a bit awkward for taller women. I’m 5’9 and found when I needed to scrub a specific area, I had to bend over pretty far. I do have this problem with other mops as well but I love the Reveal Mop and it would be perfect if only it had a height adjustment feature.

The Rubbermaid Reveal Mop is the best spray mop I have ever used. It saves money by eliminating the need to constantly buy new replacement pads, solutions and batteries. It is sturdy and made to last. I can easily clean hard to reach areas as the mop stick can reach the floor and the pad remains intact. The Reveal Mop also features a soft foam comfort grip which is extremely comfortable and makes mopping much easier. Another feature I noticed in the Reveal Mop is the area of floor the spray/cleaner reaches. From my experience, most spray mops spray just a tiny area. When I pull the trigger on the Reveal Mop, the cleaner sprays much wider than other mops. Additionally, it is very easy to control the amount of spray that is used. The Reveal Mop adds convenience and simplicity to household cleaning. As a busy mother, I rely on my Reveal Mop on a daily basis- I love it!

 

PURCHASE INFORMATION: The price of the Rubbermaid Reveal Spray Mop Kit varies by location and is sold at The Home Depot, Target and at select Walmart stores.
