Here’s what happened with I tried Hubble, the company that sends daily wear contacts to your door.

Here’s what happened with I tried Hubble, the company that sends daily wear contacts to your door.

by Kristen Chase | Health, Fitness + Wellbeing

I’m a long-time contact wearer here, especially in those glasses break now and then moments (or when a style moment hits hard). And as much as my optometrist has tried to get me to try daily wear contacts because they’re waaaay better for my eyeballs, they...
A simple skincare regimen for busy moms, and 5 things I learned after sticking to it for 10 days

A simple skincare regimen for busy moms, and 5 things I learned after sticking to it for 10 days

by Kristen Chase | Beauty + Cosmetics

I’m pretty sure I can’t be the only mom who barely has enough energy to wash her face at night and slap some moisturizer on, since I’m so darn tired I just want to brush my teeth and hit the sack. Yes, the 30 seconds it would take me always...

How much water should you be drinking? This smart bottle can help.

by Cool Mom Staff | Health, Fitness + Wellbeing

Our whole staff pshaw-ed the idea of a smart water bottle until our Editor Kate gave it a try for a week. Turns out, it can actually help you drink more water, which so many of us really need to do. Not only does the Hidrate Spark track your water intake with its...

The first reusable tampon applicator: Would you? Could you?

by Liz Gumbinner | Health, Fitness + Wellbeing

7 simple changes I’m making before I turn 40

by Kate Etue | Health, Fitness + Wellbeing, Tips + Tricks

2018 is the year I turn 40. Wow. It seems like such a big deal, this milestone, complete with black “Over the Hill” balloons and all. No — kidding. I mean, sure I was afraid of 40 once. But, now, thanks to the women in my life who have not only...

Clarisonic Mia 2 Skin Cleansing System review: Is it really worth the price? An honest look.

by Kate Etue | Beauty + Cosmetics

As the new year loomed over me, I got an early start on my resolution to rid myself of dry, dead skin, and take better care of my face. I tested out quite a few skincare devices over the course of one month that had been sent to me for review consideration —...

My holiday gift wishlist: 5 sweet indulgences to help me get my groove back.

by Delilah S. Dawson | Holiday Picks

I might be 39, but in many ways, 2016 was the year I became an actual adult. Both my father and grandmother died, my daughter got mean-girled, my son started his first real sport, I suffered some health setbacks, and I had to sell my beloved horse. I even cut my hair...

Hi! We’re Kristen + Liz!



 Kristen Chase + Liz Gumbinner of Cool Mom Picks We started Cool Mom Picks in 2006 to help make life cooler, more meaningful, and more fun for parents of all kinds.

Trivia: It was called Cool Mom Sh*t for the first two days. (Yeah, we rethought that.)

We had no idea our site would grow to become a major lifestyle network, that we'd end up sharing our finds with the TODAY Show and Martha Stewart, that we'd be able to make a real difference for so many small businesses and women-run companies, or that we'd end up with an incredible community of the coolest readers on the planet. (If we do say so ourselves).

We still love what we do every single day. And we're so glad you're here.
