Pink Papaya with Carrie Review & Giveaway

August Spotlight Sponsor

We have had a long, hot, busy summer and my flip flopped feet have taken a beating. It seems like we have been on the go since we went on our beach vacation back in June. My feet have not had a whole lot of love since my pedicure before the trip. I know how much they would love to be pampered just a little bit more and thankfully they can be, because of Pink Papaya with Carrie.

Carrie Green is an independent consultant with Pink Papaya, a company that offers natural spa and beauty products. Pink Papaya was launched in 2006 by two sisters who were living out their childhood dream of creating a business together. Pink Papaya offers bath, body, and aromatherapy products that are made with 100% pure essential oils, natural botanical extracts, and all in the U.S.

Carrie sent me a great little package from Pink Papaya.

A 2012-2013 Product Catalog, handwritten note from Carrie, Pink Papaya Pedi Balm & Instructions, a business card, and a sample of the Pink Papaya Creamy Body Butter-Exotic.

First of all, I could not believe how great and informational the Product Catalog was, over 50 pages of products, information, and other fun things. It was broken down into very specific categories and each section contained specific product photos, detailed information, pricing, and other important facts about ingredients and creation of the product. You know exactly what you are getting when you order from the Pink Papaya catalog.

Next was the handwritten note. I have said this before and I will say it again, taking the time to reach out personally to a customer or partner really means a lot in my book. Carrie went that extra step to show she really offers great customer service.

Now on to the best part-the Pink Papaya Pedi Balm

Sugar Cane & Honey Deep Moisture Pedi Balm

The Pedi Balm comes in a 2 ounce plastic container and is available in either Lavender Mint or Fig Leave fragrance. The balm is a stick form made from soy wax and oil, jojoba oil (to help with quick absorption), shea and mango butter (hydration), beeswax, sugar cane extract (hydration), white lily and blackberry extract (soothe and rejuvenate), papaya extract, vitamin E, grapeseed oil, and hemp seed oil (absorption) all to pamper rough, tired feet, like mine. Both retail for $16.50.

I have to say, my feet couldn't wait to try it. The first time I applied the Pedi Balm, I wanted to compare using it/not using it so I only applied it to my right foot. I followed the directions Carrie sent, which were very simple-apply a small amount of balm to feet in the evening, rub into skin focusing on calloused areas. My feet get calloused in very normal areas including the ball and heel, I also get callouses on my big toe and the outside of my foot near my small toe.

The next day

Now, I do apologize for the foot photos, not the best things to look at, but for sake of showing you how great my feet looked after just one application, you will forgive me.

I was happily ready to show off my feet, they felt smooth, clean, and so much better thanks to the Pink Papaya Pedi Balm. My feet did not feel greasy, although I did wear socks after I applied the balm. Just using the balm made the soles of my feet feel like I had just left the pedicure chair. I have since continued to use the Pink Papaya Pedi Balm and continue to love how my feet feel and how my callouses have stayed at bay.

Carrie and Pink Papaya recommend using the Pedi Balm along with the White Lily & Sage Refreshing Foot Spritz. This spritz will cool and sooth tired feet. I can only imagine using the two products together would feel wonderful after being out on your feet all day.

I can't wait to work with Carrie and Pink Papaya again soon, the products truly speak for themselves. I am a new fan!
