Disclaimer: I received Ivory® 2-IN-1 Hair & Body Wash complimentary from Influenster for the purpose of this review. For as long as I can remember I’ve been using body wash- loofah and all. It’s just my preferred method of scrubbing it up. I’ll admit though, until now, I had never used a 2-in-1 Hair and […]

For the digital mom: New online ways to donate to Sandy victims
