Ottilie & Lulu Review with Giveaway

Victoria is at that age where she needs to begin taking better care of her both hair and her skin. I want her to understand the importance of this while she is still young. No I don’t want her thinking that looks are everything but I do want her to know that it is important to cleanse, use sunblosck, and do what she can to keep from damamging her beautiful hair. That is where Ottilie & Lulu come in. Ottilie & Lulu are tweens, neighbors and best friends (there is the cutest backstory about that on the site.) The line was founded by Deborah Hernan

 

From Ottilie & Lulu Website:

Ottilie and Lulu offers a range of easy-to-use products specially formulated for girls 7-14.  Each of these formulas contains anti-oxidants to protect a young girl’s skin from environmental stresses, vitamins to nourish, and enriching botanicals to sooth.

As mothers, you want safe, gentle ingredients in your daughters’ products.  Tween “beauty” should be about cleansing and protecting one’s face, hair and body, not applying irritating glitter, or wearing heavy perfume or strident colours. Clean, healthy, and happy, those are the communication messages our girls should be getting.  They don’t need to be bombarded with beauty standards and imagery that are inappropriate for girls 7-14. As people who were girls once, you appreciate that they want something just for themselves.  Who among us does not remember our first fragrant soap bar (was it lavender?) or a refreshing splash(was yours a big yellow bottle?).  Give Ottilie & Lulu as tween gifts to your daughter and her friends and create some new memories!

As women, you know it is never too early to care for your skin.  The habits our tween girls develop now will stay with them throughout life.  Using Ottilie & Lulu will help them reap the benefits of good tween hygiene when they are our age.

Ottilie & Lulu is the new tween brand, and I have created it just for our girls. And you can’t borrow it … even though you might want to!

TESTING Ottilie & Lulu:

We recieved two products from Ottilie & lulu for Victoria to try out. First up was the Shiny Silky Detangler & Conditioner. Victoria loved being able to use conditioner. It made her feel very grown up.  I loved that the detangler actually worked! It smelled wonderful as well, sortof like minty. She uses every night without me having to tell her which is always a good thing. One of the great things is that she can out this in before swiming and when she is done the comb runs right through her hair. I need that sort of conditioner.

The second product we received was Clean Skin Face Wipes. there are really great! They make her feel like such a grown-up. She carried these in her bag and uses them to wash her face whenever she needs to. She also uses them at night and to remove her “makeup”. Again I like the smell and how honestly easy they are for her to use and for her to get into the habit of washing her face.

 

PROS of Ottilie & Lulu:
