The first weekend of this new month has come to an end and with that I have decided to share with you a new segment called “5 Things Trending For The Week Of…” Here I’ll share with you apps or products that makes motherhood a little easier.
{Mantraband, $25}
Mantrabrand: I’ve been seeing people everywhere wearing bangle bracelets with a saying engraved on them. They are bangles from Mantra Band. I must have them. Choose the color; silver, gold, or rose gold and then the phrase. My favorite is “Hakuna Matata”! There are longer and shorter sayings; “courage”, “freedom”, “she believed she could do, so she did”. LOVE all of them! They are hypoallergenic and made with a tarnish resistant material.
DRYNC is a free app that allows you to scan, track, share, and purchase wine INSTANTLY! Snap a photo of the label ANYWHERE, an ad, a billboard, or on the bottle, click buy, and the wine is on it’s way! It’s available for iPhone, Android, and iPad.
The Makeup Genius app by L’Oreal Paris has been getting a lot of buzz. It’s not your standard makeup app, it’s a virtual tester that works great! You have the ability to try makeup on yourself and see how it looks as you apply it in real time. L’Oreal used a technology from Hollywood studios that has never been used in the beauty world. This is great if you want to try new styles and colors before buying them…and it’s free!
Mom Maps For me (Denise), Flywheel is the best way for me to keep track of my workouts. Browse your app store for fitness apps that will help you stay in shape, coordinate your workouts with your calendar and tell you how successful your session was.
The Kitchen Safe is a glass tupperware that locks your goodies up! You set a timer and The Kitchen Safe will not open until that time runs out. Set it to five days and you won’t be able to open that lid until the timer hits zero! I’ve seen pictures of people locking their video game controllers in there! Throw your phone in there for an hour if you want to keep it out of your hands – get creative! It’s $49 per container.

I love the concept behind the DRYNC app. I’ll have to try that. I am getting one of those mantra bands! Thanks for sharing. Great list!
