Soft Scrub 4-in-1 Toilet Care #review and #giveaway

Recently, Purex Insiders gave me the opportunity to review Soft Scrub^® 4-in-1 Toilet Care Alpine Fresh and Sapphire Waters scents.

Installation seems easy following these simple instructions:

1. Unfold hanger And place onto toilet bowl rim. 2. Adjust to ensure product is in the flow of water when the toilet flushed. 3. Dispose of product properly once plastic hanger cage is empty. Replace as needed.

Sounds great, right? Not so much - at least not for me. 

First of all, the hanger never really fit my toilet bowl properly. I think this made it difficult for the water to flow properly over the hanger. Although my bathroom smelled great, so I think it must have been getting it somewhat. 

I am pretty vigilant about cleaning my toilet bowl so it was difficult for me to try and let this thing work, but I did. In the month that I used it, my toilet bowl was never clean unless I scrubbed it. Kind of defeats the purpose. Also, paper tends to get stuck on it - completely gross in my opinion.

Lastly, because of it's design (it is very colorful) I was always worried that my three year old would think it was a toy. Not that he goes around playing in the toilet but boys will be boys - toilets are especially intriguing when potty training.

Overall I really love Soft Scrub Products, but this is not a product I will buy in the future and not one I can recommend to my friends or family.

From Soft Scrub:

Soft Scrub^® 4-in-1 Toilet Care is the only rim hanger that:

• Cleans 
• Prevents Future Buildup
• Fights Toilet Ring
• Freshens up to 4 Weeks

 

Just apply to the rim of your toilet and enjoy the cleaning and freshening benefits for up to four weeks!

What makes Soft Scrub® 4-in-1 Toilet Care different? Unlike other toilet bowl rim hangers that don't stay in place or that dissolve too quickly, NEW Soft Scrub® 4-in-1 Toilet Care provides long lasting cleaning and freshening thanks to its unique design and advanced formula.

Maybe you would like to try it yourself? Or maybe you would just like to win ANY Soft Scrub Product! 

2 Lucky Made by Renee Readers are each going to win 1 coupon for a FREE Soft Scrub Product (US only 18 years or older please)!

Kid Lit Giveaway Hop - enter to win 2 Christian Board Books until 5/19

Mother Daughter Book Reviews and Youth Literature Reviews are joining forces with authors, publishers, publicists, children’s book and teen literature bloggers to bring you a Blog Hop featuring links to giveaways for fabulous children/teen’s books, gift cards, cash, and other prizes. 

What better way to celebrate Children’s Book Week?

Check out my review and giveaway below for Made by Renee readers and dont forget to hop around to all of the other fabulous giveaways going on during this fun event! 

 

The first book I am offering in this giveaway is My First Book of Prayers - The Lord is Good to Me (illustrated by Lisa M Gardiner).

A padded board book with classic first prayers, My First Book of Prayers - The Lord is Good to Me is the perfect size for little hands to hold. Gardiner beautifully illustrates each prayer with colorful pictures. Titles available in this series are All Things Great & Small, Jesus Loves Me, The Lord Is Good to Me, and Trust in the Lord.

I have been wanting my 3 year old to start reading some bedtime prayers and this book is perfect for him. Zachary does read on a second grade level and this book has a few words that would probably be considered that level (IE: shepherd, remarkable, gracious etc), but overall it is a great first reader.

 Also by Flowerpot Press, the second book I am offering in this giveaway is My First Bible (Illustrated by Pascale Lafond).

Another book I would choose for Zachary, this great big story board book is perfect for the beginning "read with me" child and sure to be a favorite. This book is practically impossible to find online, unlike the others in this series, but would be a sweet addition to a child's library. The others in this My First Bible Collection are worth checking out too like the Story of Creation, The Story of Moses, The Story of Noah, and The Story of Jesus.

Would you like to win both of these books for your child or a child you know? Entry is Easy! Just use the rafflecopter below (US only and 18+ please)!

Sponsor Spotlight: FragranceNet - with up to 70% off retail, it is the perfect place to shop for Mother's Day!

Trusted since 1997, FragranceNet was created to provide customers with the best inventory of genuine brand name fragrances, candles, skincare, make up, aromatherapy and gift sets in the lowest price possible (up to 70% off retail). There are no knock off imitations and they don't manufacture any product they carry.

I am definitely a fragrance girl - I have worn the Christian Dior Poison Line for many years! My first bottle came from a department store and it was Tendre Poison. A gorgeous scent that came out around 1994, it is sadly no longer available. It had lovely notes of mandarin, vanilla, sandalwood blended with fresh florals.

A few years ago, a friend recommended Dior's Hypnotic Poison to me. I fell in love instantly! With notes of Jasmine, Bitter Almond, and Vanilla it is truly captivating and definitely for a woman who likes to feel sexy. The compliments I receive on this scent are too many to count - it has become my signature fragrance.

Hypnotic Poison Perfume by Christian Dior

Show your inner passion with Hypnotic Poison by Christian Dior. In this fragrance for women, a strong scent of jasmine mixes perfectly with lower tones of amber, almond and woods. Introduced in 1998, Hypnotic Poison is the ideal way to add a touch of mystery and intrigue to your life. Splash it into the creases of your arms before you head out for an exciting date or a meeting with a new love and enjoy the increased sense of romance it brings.

When FragranceNet offered to send me my favorite fragrance for review, I jumped at the chance!

My sweet husband buys me Hypnotic Poison every year for Mother's Day, and FragranceNet is the perfect place to purchase it from. Right now they are having a 15% off Sale and Free Shipping on any order over $70 (see their website for details). Be sure to Connect with FragranceNet on Facebook and Twitter.
