Essentials Awards: Kids' Hygiene Routine

Jason Calming Lavender Deodorant Stick works, it's affordable, and it smells great. Did I mention it works?

CleanWell Foaming Hand Sanitizer fights germs without harsh chemicals. A new kind of superhero?

I love eco brushing with Eco-Dent TerraDent Replaceable Head Toothbrush. Replace just the head instead of the whole brush. 

For these awards, parents on the Taste for Life staff proudly nominated a great number of their own families' essentials. Then the editors read labels, reviewed the accolades, and selected winners from among the worthy products in each category. 

Chief Content Officer and Strategist Johanna Arnone is mom to Stella, 2. "We've used a combo of cloth and eco-conscious disposable diapers. I'm a fan of FuzziBunz and Nature BabyCare." 

Sales Coordinator Ashley Dunk is mom to Louis, 1. "I love California Baby Calming Shampoo and Bodywash. We switched from a conventional brand and never looked back." 

Western Advertising Director Shannon Dunn-Delgado is mom to Liliana, 5, and Tavio, 4. "We always have HEEL Traumeel on hand for boo-boos."

Executive Director of Retail Sales and Marketing Anna Johnston is mom to Lila, 3. "Fairly traded Alaffia Everyday Shea Bath and Newton Homeopathics Complexes for Kids are two of our family favorites."

Director of Advertiser and  Client Relations Amy Pierce is mom to Simon, 10; Elijah, 7; and Owen, 1. "Other products have dried out my kids' skin. Kiss My Face Pomegranate and Acai castile soap keeps their sensitive skin soft."

Director of Web Marketing and Development Amanda Misa is mom to Rilynn, 14, and Jordan, 11. "Lifefactory water bottles travel well and come in great colors. My kids love that they are glass!"
