Lightweight Sustainable Pacifier
This pacifier is love at first sight for a parent -- it is lightweight, durable, has a desired nipple shape, and is sustainable.
The pacifier comes in a 2-pack, which is packaged with paper material. Without even touching the product, I was already ecstatic that I wouldn't have to fight with stubborn traditional plastic packaging.
The design is simple -- a heart shaped base to hold a nipple that is shaped like a breast. It is lightweight and not bulky at all. The only miss on the design for me is more in the overall aesthetic of the pacifier--I'd prefer something a little more delicate as it did look rather large on my daughter's face; I would still purchase this pacifier for it's overall functionality and ultimately, for its ability to soothe my daughter consistently through every use.
I appreciate NUK's authentic effort to create a sustainable product that is easily accessible across multiple retailers. To me, this is what sets this product apart. There is an abundance of eco-friendly, sustainable, and organic pacifier options -- however, many of them are made by boutique companies that may only sell online and are thus, not accessible to consumers in commonly frequented stores (i.e. grocery stores, Target, etc.). Furthermore, NUK's product lines have consistently been affordable, thereby casting a wide consumer net and making a quality product available for all families.
Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this pacifier.

A happy baby makes for a happy mama
Excited to say that I was given this pacifier to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
I must start by saying that my daughter is hit or miss when it comes to pacifiers so I wasn’t sure how this would go over with her, she’s a tough critic! Most babies love pacifiers but mine, she could take them or leave them. This one however, she LOVED!
The new shape seemed to make it easier for the pacifier to stay in her mouth and I believe more comfortable as well. Also the material it’s made of is super soft/not as stiff as others which makes it feel so much more realistic to her. I believe this new design is what she took to the most since most other pacifiers are bulky, heavy, thick and not a realistic shape. I also wanted to mention the materials it’s made of are 100% sustainable which definitely makes me feel better about wanting to have a bunch of them on hand at all times!
The only negative I found with this product is that there is a small hole on the bottom where the nipple part is connected to the plastic outer part. That being said when I washed them I did notice some water got inside the nipple part and I was afraid that would cause mold to grow inside but so far nothing has happened to that effect. Not a deal breaker for me since they seemed to have dried out, just something to note and keep my eye on with future use.
All in all this product is definitely a game changer when it comes to pacifiers and helping to calm my daughter!
A quiet/self-soothing baby = a happy mama!
Will continue to use and will most likely be buying more!

Happy With This Pacifier
I received this product free of charge as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. My baby is 4 months old and had only ever used another brand and style of pacifier with a very different nipple shape, so I was worried he wouldn't take to it. However, this wasn't an issue! The body of the pacifier sits relatively flat on the face, so it's less likely baby will knock it out of his mouth accidentally. In fact, it stayed in baby's mouth for most of his nap. It was described as having a breast-like nipple shape, but I don't feel that's accurate. As you can see in the pictures, the nipple of the pacifier is long and flat, and slanted upward. While I don't feel this is nipple-shaped, it likely does contour to baby's mouth in a comfortable way (perhaps the "orthodontic" feature of the pacifier?). I appreciate that attention was given to the visual appeal of the pacifier as well. It's cute!
The majority of the packaging is cardboard (with a plastic viewing window), and it was super easy to open. The pacifier itself claims to be made with 100% sustainable materials with an asterisk, however there is no reference for the asterisk to refer to, which is disappointing. There is a note on the packaging in a different section that says the pacifier is "Made with natural raw materials certified according to ISCC and REDcert2 mass-balance requirements," however, I would have preferred explanations of the sustainability of the product in layman's terms. The way the sustainability of the product is described on the packaging makes me skeptical of the actual planet-friendliness of the product. I don't like that I would have to do additional research to understand in what ways this pacifier is sustainable.
Sterilization and care of the product is standard and easy, and fully explained on the packaging.
Overall, we would be happy to purchase this product in the future!

Beautiful Well made and BF friendly
I received these beautiful pacifiers as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
The first thing worth mentioning is an eye-catching, eco-friendly packaging, that was compact and still sturdy enough to protect the pacifiers. I literally fell in love with it and was so sorry to throw it away:)
Now, The Binkies.
What gets your attention in the begging is the design. I loved the pastel calm colors with a small marble pattern, and the heart shape with air vents. Looks so stylish in the baby's mouth :)
Next thing is of course the
high quality of the product. It is made of sustainable material, as mentioned on the package. The food grade silicone nipples are soft and so durable. I tried to pull them out of the base just to be sure they stick hard enough, so my LO won't choke on them. Not to worry mamas, the nipples sit strong!
And last but definitely not least, I love the natural feature of these binkies. As I exclusively breastfeed, I was worried about giving the pacifier due to "nipple confusion". However, with the breast-like shape of the pacifier nipple, we had no breastfeeding problem at all.
A couple more things I would like to highlight:
1. There is no space on the pacifier to attach the holder. Which became a big deal for us at our stroller walks, as my girlie loves throwing everything out. (However, I know lots of parents who are ok without the paci holder.)
2. We are past the 6 months age now, and are still using these pacifiers. My baby girl loves them, and latches on them very well.
3. It played a huge part in our teething experience, as it helped to sooth the baby's sore gums.
4. If the baby latches on it for too long (overnight for example) it might leave the reddish circles around the lips, which wasn't a deal breaker for us, as my girl usually sucks on it for no more than 2 hrs in a row..
Overall, I am highly pleased with these pacifiers and already recommended them to some of my friends as a good paci journey starter.
P.S. I didn't take a star away due to the cons I mentioned because those cons are my personal preference. As I stated above I know many parents who won't consider it a problem. That's why I am sure it should not affect the overall quality of the product.
