Pocket Purifier & Sun Mate Review and Giveaway--CLOSED

I have a double review today and a double giveaway. Purely Products gave me the opportunity to review a Pocket Purifier, which is a hand held germ eliminating light. It's a really cool gadget that is about the size of a women's billfold and you can easily slip it into your purse or diaper bag.

To use the Pocket Purifier, you turn the Purifier Light on and shine it on the object you are purifying for about 10 seconds. DO NOT use on skin.


Why would you want a Pocket Purifier? Have you ever set your purse down on a questionable floor--Has baby ever dropped the paci on the floor--Ever wonder if the phone/remote/doorknob in your hotel room has been sanitized? For any of these situations where you wish you had a sanitizer wipe, you can use the purifier to be sure your items are not covered in germs.

I thought the way the purifier works is amazing. It kills the DNA of the bacteria so they can not multiply. It uses UV-C light and keeps the germs from being able to grow or to reproduce. This whole concept fascinated me. I understand enough biology to see how this could work, but was a bit skeptical if it truly did as it claimed.

I happened to be at a mom & baby group when a paci fell onto the floor. I pulled out my Pocket Purifier and offered to sanitize the pacifier. One of the gals in the group mentioned that they use the purifiers where she works. She's a high school science teacher and they use the purifiers to sanitize the goggles after kids use them.

When I found out that a science teacher agrees that these work, I was doubly impressed. There are so many uses for the purifier and I'm still thinking of ways to use it. As many of you know, I'm trying to use less chemicals and the Pocket Purifier fits right into my less chemical mantra. It kills 99.9% of germs that cause cold & flu (plus ecoli bacteria) without chemicals.

The other great thing is there's a flashlight build into the purifier as well. This was handy when we had a power outage this week at our home. It was sitting on the kitchen counter (I sanitized my cutting board after cutting chicken) and I was able to use it to get us safely to the other flashlights in our home.

Additionally, I received a SunMate which is a product to test and see how intense the UV rays are. It's a great way to check and see if sunscreen is advisable for yourself and the kids when you are outside. As a reminder, even on cloudy days you are exposed to UV light and can get a 'sunburn' without the sun. I already own a SunMate and it's a great way to check and see if you are being sun safe. (See below for a way for you to win a SunMate of your own!)
