HONEST BABY CARDS AND STAIN REMOVER BY ACE

HONEST BABY CARDS AND STAIN REMOVER BY ACE

• 8 May 2017

As a parent I am constantly reminded and aware of the various milestones that Elise should be reaching. Some she reaches early, some right on time and other she is yet to reach. It's always so exciting when she reaches a milestone, such as getting her first tooth, saying mummy for the first time and her latest one of being able to stand. 

However, sometimes the milestones aren't all nice...we've all witnessed the first poo explosion, and the sleepless nights. That's why ACE have created these honest baby cards. They celebrate, and laugh at, those times that aren't so sweet, and sometimes are messy and just a little bit disgusting. With their stain remover for colours and whites, you don't have to worry about your little one getting as messy as they like.

Elise has very sensitive skin and because of her eczema I have to be very careful with the products I use on her skin. At first I was a bit worried about trying out the ACE Stain remover products, as I was worried that her skin might react to it, but I didn't need to worry. We actually use unscented products to wash Elise's clothes, and we wash them separate to our own so we know nothing nasty is going to get on her clothes. We find that in the past anything that is scented has made her skin react, she just is very sensitive to everything, she even has to bath with no products. That's why on the first instance I used the stain remover in with our clothes first.

I also have sensitive skin, so I have a very strict wash technique that I know won't affect my skin. I'm always worried about adding a new product in, but I didn't need to worry about adding the stain remover for colours to my wash. I haven't had any problems with skin reaction, and the scent of this product is amazing. It made the whole kitchen smell amazing when I put the washing up to dry. I haven't had any skin irritation, and I found that it got rid of some difficult stains, including some blood stains. I also found that the stain remover worked great at getting rid of all the orange stains on Elise's clothes. Why are all baby foods orange?! It is the toughest colour to get out of their clothes, along with chocolate stains. I found that by using the colour stain removed along with our normal washing powder it lifted all the stains. I then hung out the washing and the remainder of any stains disappeared. Usually I have to add a spray on stain remover, but I found that adding a capful of the product to the drum was good enough without having to add in any other product. I found that it worked especially well on cleaning our cheeky wipes (reusable baby wipes) that were covered in various food stains. I am genuinely very impressed with the product, and now that I know Elise's skin doesn't react to it I will be repurchasing it to use again. (I've been using this every week for 4 weeks so know that it hasn't made her skin react.)

I have also tested out the stain remover for whites on our bedding and found that it did make them whiter and crisper. I'm always looking to improves whites as there is nothing worse than faded or stained whites. Nobody wants a grey shirt when it should be white! I'm often disappointed by whitening products, but I am impressed with this one by Ace. I found that it very easy to use, and it just became part of my washing process. 

ACE have created some honest baby cards for parents to share in the humour of every day life when raising little ones. I particularly like the one that says "Today I spent the day pretending to be a dinosaur" as Elise loves dinosaurs at the moment. She is constantly roaring just like her favourite dinosaur characters and can be found carrying round her favourite dinosaur toy. We are also pros when it comes to getting a bit messy when doing some arts and crafts, so the messy play one definitely applies to us. We haven't done any jumping in muddy puddles yet as Elise cannot walk, but we are looking forwards to this. I think we are also lucky that she has never been a baby who throws up often, so we have avoided this card. We've also only had a few messy nappy situations, but I'm expecting some accidents when we start potty training.
