About Hormone-colored Reviews

Edited 8/20/13

I didn't even remember that this page existed until I noticed it had a recent visitor. As the social space has evolved and my children have grown (they're young teens now), so has my blogging. Click over to my newest blog, The Maker Mom, to learn more about me.

Edited 1/10/11 to add: Thanks for clicking! You are a true PR Pro, unlike the other 98% that (based on my stats and inbox) never bother clicking through and send me pitches for diapers and tutus. I am not interested in unsolicited items at this time as I do very few reviews these days.

However, I do spend quite a bit of time developing MomImpact, where I connect bloggers and brand for conversations, events, and product reviews. If you would like to receive our free monthly e-newsletter touching on trending issues and hot topics in the online mom-space, please sign up here or drop me a note at kim (at) momimpact (dot) com.

Thanks!

Dear PR Pro,

Please note, I now post most of my reviews back at Hormone Colored Days. Please click to read more about me, or continue reading below to learn about products I like.

I'm an avid and influential blogger, Tweeter and social media consultant. I'm a managing editor at The Chicago Moms and my personal blog, Hormone-colored Days.

As an active social media mom, I've recently been quoted in Parenting magazine, the Christian Science Monitor, iParenting.com, The Chicago Tribune, MSNBC.com and Automotive News. Click over for the full view of my published writing and media appearances.

I am looking for products in the following categories:
Boy stuff
Tween Stuff
Mom Stuff
Geek Stuff
Food Stuff*
Books. We love books.

I rarely run ads, nor do I do pay-for-post work, but I'd like a sample of your product before I blog it. If my family likes it, I'll probably write about it and ask you to give the same fabulous product away to one of my readers. I love to share a great new find with my peeps.

I present real-life, balanced product reviews. However, if your product is a total flop, I likely won't waste my time writing about it. After all, I've got meals to cook, carpools to drive and clients to advise.

Please contact me before you send product my way. I'm pro-choice. I like to have a say in what you send to ensure we have the best possible match.

Take a peek at past product reviews. And while you're at it, maybe you'd like my thoughts about marketing to mommybloggers.

Sound good? Let's connect!
