Mad About Mama Sponsor Spotlight And EARLY ENTRIES~Michele@Miki's Hope

Today's Sponsor Spotlight features Michele, fellow blogger and owner of Miki's Hope and The Very Best Of The Best. (Which are both awesome sites, in my humble opinion!) Please check out her wonderful sites, and follow her blog. She has a blowout Mother's Day event of her own in the works, and you will NOT want to miss out on it! But to stay in the loop, you'll need to head on over and become one of her lovely followers, like myself. :)

Michele is also a consultant for Eclipse Spa, and has generously donated not 1....not 2....but 3 AMAZING products for my Mad About Mama Mother's Day event! I won't go into too much detail and ruin the surprise, but I will tell you these products are fantastic! I received the same products that will be given away, and I tried 2 of them last night, and all I can say is that these products seriously pamper! They *almost* made me forget that I had 2 babies and a preteen that could call for me at any second and interrupt my blissful relaxation. If you had  blindfolded me, I would honestly have felt that I was living the high life and being pampered in a luxurious spa setting. But that's the great thing about Eclipse Spa products. You can recreate the whole spa experience in the comfort (or chaos) of your own home!

Eclipse Spa offers many decadent products, such as wonderful, skin softening sugar scrubs, nourishing body and hand lotions, soy candles, and amazing massage oils. They also have gift baskets and a men's section so the hubby can spoil himself a little, too! These products give everyone the chance to have an organic, sumptuous spa experience.

About Eclipse Spa, from Michele's Eclipse Spa website:


Using a synergistic approach in formulating our products, we use ingredients that soothe and protect your skin, and use natural fragrances that can transform your emotions and heal your body.

We are  committed to sustainable practices and providing the best ever natural and organic bath & body products for you to turn your bath into an organic spa experience.

Eclipsespa does not support animal testing and uses natural raw ingredients in its products. Most of our herbs and additives have been certified organically grown. Taking further steps to being green we use recycled shipping boxes to send you your orders, and use recycled tissue paper in our all-natural gift packaging. All of our product containers are recyclable, therefore we encourage our customers to recycle their product containers.

Our Team

All of our labels are hand-applied by individuals who have developmental disabilities that range mental retardation, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, autism, downs syndrome, etc. We are privileged to be providing meaning, opportunity and support to these severely disadvantaged and mentally handicapped adults who would otherwise find it difficult to find a job on "main street.   So please excuse a label that might be a little crooked, knowing that you purchased a product from a company who provides assistance to these fabulous individuals.

To reduce our carbon footprint I now hand-pour all of our candles in-house. We use all natural 100% soy wax in our candles and pure essential oils for fragrance which is less toxic to people and the environment.  We love providing you with eco-friendly light and comfort while you Spa at Home Tonight.



You heard that right: Eclipse Spa is a company with a conscience and  a big heart. They provide eco-friendly, organic products, and they enlist the help of disabled individuals in the labeling process, giving them a sense of purpose and pride, knowing that they, too, can be contributing members of society, when it may have otherwise been hard for them to find employment. I LOVE that! On a personal note, I have worked with developmentally challenged and disabled children before, and they are some of the most beautiful, happy, optimistic individuals I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. It angers me when people are quick to judge them for being "different". I applaud Eclipse Spa for recognizing these wonderful individuals and for giving them a chance to be a part of something great. I wish more companies would follow suit.

Anyway, take a look at just a few of the products that Michele carries on her Eclipse Spa site:
