Purely Simple {Purely Products Giveaway} CLOSED

Germs come in all shapes and sizes…little boys, stinky shoes, dogs, sponges, and shopping carts.  Without germs our immune systems wouldn’t be strong and able to fight off diseases and sickness.  However, there are tons of germs that we should protect ourselves from.  E-coli, salmonella, mold, fungus and MRSA staph (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus Aureus) can cause colds and flu.  Why would you not avoid getting sick if you could?  Well…TADA!  You can!

The Pocket Purifer is a lightweight, convenient, and handheld UV germ killer.  This little beauty will sanitize surfaces and objects with the same UV-C light that sterilizes surgical instruments.  Ultraviolet light and nanotechnology eliminate 99.9% of nasty germs.  Now you can kill germs without chemicals, isn’t that very green chic!?

Quick Facts on UV-C light:
–UV-C light is chemical free and odorless.
–UV-C light is invisible. The additional blue light is provided as a reference for the user but it is not the UV-C light itself.
–Indirectly viewing the blue light produced but the UV-C lamp does not cause exposure to UV-C light
–UV-C light sterilizes biological pollutants by penetrating the cell membranes of viruses, bacteria, mold spores and dust mite eggs and stopping their reproductive capabilities – eliminating the disease-causing microbes. (the DNA of cannot reproduce)
–UV disinfectant has been used in hospitals, food processing facilities, water treatment and HVAC systems for over 30 years.

With 4 AA batteries it can sanitize so many things!  It is suitable for purifying masks, kitchen counters, sinks and utensils, bathroom surfaces, computer keyboards, remote controls, cell phones, nail clippers, shoes, clothing, bags, scissors, baby toys, pacifiers, diaper pails, cribs, strollers – most everyday items.  UV light will not harm function of surfaces or items disinfected.  Use this light for 10-15 seconds on most everyday items and wah la!  Sanitized!

Purely Products sent me a cute pink ultraviolet light germ eliminator to test out.  Did I ever test it out!  I used it on my keyboard, my toothbrush, the sponge, my puppy’s toys, my cell…everything I could think of.  As a suggestion from Purely Products, I even used it on the cutting board after cutting raw meat on it.  I was a germ killing machine!  Then I stuck it in my purse to take to work the next day.  Later that night, I pulled it out to use the built in flashlight.  This dual purpose little gadget has a permanent place in my purse.

Even LPGA Tour Pro Natalie Gulbis, their spokesperson, keeps it in her golf bag and uses it all the time because she travels so much.

Another wonderful gadget Purely Products makes is the Sunmate.  This is a must have summer gadget for the outdoor loving family.  Now, you can quickly find out the intensity of ultraviolet rays so you can make decisions on skincare protection.

It is easy and simple to use.  Just press the little white button and LED indicators light up between 1 and 5 depending upon the intensity of the UV light.

Easy Peezie!  It slips right into a diaper bag, beach bag, purse, golf bag, backpack, anything. Use it for golfing, fishing, snow skiing, boating, softball – any sports; yard work, bicycling, walking, running, hiking, at the park with your kids or at baseball games – any outdoor activity, any day of the year.  Knowledge is power!

I used the SunMate when I recently went to an amusement park with my nieces and nephews.  Knowing what the suns rays were like helped us know to keep sunscreen on even though it was a little cloudy.  Wish I would have had one of these when I was six…long story short you CAN get VERY sunburned when you are at the beach when it is a little cool and overcast.

Purely Products gave each Giveaway Gal the chance to try both of these products.  Here are what the others had to say:

I received the Pocket Purifier and Sun Mate for review. I’ve read that the telephone, doorknobs and the computer keyboard are among the germiest places in your home. So I used the Pocket Purifier in these spots along with regular cleaning and I feel a bit better about our home being cleaner. This weekend, we used the Sun Mate when we went to the park with our girls. While we like to go earlier in the morning when it’s cooler, we used the Sun Mate to help us decide if it was time to head for shadier ground. Both of these products are a great companion to the things we do to keep our home and ourselves healthy.

We also received the SunMate from Purely Products! Love this, especially with the intense summer sun we get here in Texas! This little device alerts you of possible over-exposure to ultraviolet rays from the sun. Of course, my children are always lathered up in sunscreen from the top of their heads to the tips of their toes, but it is still good to know when the ultraviolet rays are at their strongest! Perfect for days at the pool, playing outside, or even if we are just out running errands!

In the summer time we spend a lot of time outdoors. I am always concerned about the UV rays and how much sun exposure my family is getting. My little guy is very fair skinned like myself so we tend to get a sunburn very easily. I want to prevent that from happening as much as possible. So when I had the opportunity to test out the SunMate by Purely Products I was very excited. When it arrived I took it outdoors and tested it out. It is very simple to use: all you do is press the white button on the top of the unit and it will measure the UV index of the sun. Then you know just how much UV exposure you and your family are getting when outdoors. I love how small it is, so I can easily keep it in my purse or diaper bag when we travel.

Wait!  Purely Products continues to out due themselves.  They equipped a medical missions team going to Haiti after the earthquake with Pocket Purifiers to make their job in extreme conditions a bit easier. They had EMT teams using them.

It gets better still!  The founder of Purely Products, Myron, and his wife, Megan, parents of toddlers, also founded diaperLove, a non profit that provides diapers to children in need.  The founder’s wife was on Craigslist one evening after their second child was born and stumbled upon plea after plea for diapers. As she began an email relationship with one mother new to their area, she was shocked to find out that neither Food Stamps nor WIC helps parents buy diapers. None of the churches or street ministries she tried had diapers.  Megan and Myron took diapers, wipes and some food to the young family. The mother told them she could only afford to change her baby after a bowel movement. Other than that, her toddler spent the day in a soiled, wet diaper.  It moved Myron and Megan beyond words. After helping more families on their own for several months, after prayerful consideration, they created the non-profit, diaperLove, to provide diapers to children in need.  diaperLove accepts donations, of course, but also a percentage of every Purely Products purchase goes to support www.diaperLove.org
