I recently had the opportunity to participate in a live chat with the founders of a brand new line for the family called Honest Company. The founders are very recognizable as they are actress, mother and advocate, Jessica Alba; and author, former CEO of Healthy Child Healthy World, and father, Christopher Gavigan.
The Honest Company is an eco-friendly, modern-designed line of family essentials (diapers and wipes, bath and body care, and household cleaners) that are purchased through a monthly subscription service at Honest.com. You basically just go onto their website, tell them about yourself, choose the bundle that best fits your needs and voila you are done. It delivers monthly to your door and you can customize it any way you want with your choice of diaper designs and household needs. It is all up to you.
I received small samples of diapers, wipes, body wash, lotion, diaper cream, laundry detergent and a large sample of bubble bath and dish soap. I received 2 diapers of each design that was geared toward a boy and they came in very stylish designs of skulls and crossbones, ones with little anchors on them, striped and of course the basic white. They fit like a Huggies diaper and perform about the same. I ordered according to the size of pampers that Wyatt traditionally wears and thought the Honest diapers fit a bit larger so I would probably choose a size down next time around.
The wipes on the other hand reminded me a lot of Pampers wipes. They seemed a bit thin so I was skeptical but they held up well. I only had a small sample so I did not get to put them to the test of a big mess.
The two large samples I had were actually my favorite items because I got to really put them to the test, well sort of. After only a few times of using the heavenly and wonderfully scented bubble bath, my 6 year old son Kyle decided to take a bubble bath when he had a sitter and proceeded to dump the entire contents of the bubble bath into the tub! I was pretty angry to say the least because this was probably the best bubble bath I have ever used and now it was all down the drain. (insert sounds of sigh)
The dish soap has worked great so far. It scrubs like I need it to scrub and rinses clean away.
Now back to the live chat; no, I didn’t ask a question but I was super sick and did not want to be talking and have some crazy cough attack in the middle of it. Check out the chat link and hear what Jessica and Christopher have to say about Honest Company. If you have tried Honest Company products let us know what you think!
