Pixicade is an amazing video game creation system and app that magically turns kids drawings into a game they can play through the app.  The instructional books take you through how to create a good game, avatars and different elements you can use.  Once you draw your game, you simply take a picture and play!  This was easy enough for my five year old to figure out with a little help and engaging enough for kids 12 and up; even the adults had fun with it.  I like all of the different games you can create and the unlimited creativity and imagination that comes with it. This game will grow with your kids and has limitless outcomes for fun and discovery.

Wiley Wallaby Gourmet Licorice is a wonderful tasting licorice that comes in a variety of awesome flavors.   The licorice is softer than typical licorice and easier to chew.  The flavors really pop as you are eating for a great taste.  My favorite flavors are the Tropical Organic Bites and the Sourageous Drops. Wiley Wallaby Gourmet Licorice are Vegan, Fat Free, Kosher and made with Sustainable Palm Oil, so you can feel good about snacking on them.  In addition, they are not made with any High Fructose Corn syrup; however, they still contain Corn Syrup.

Thank you to Tryazon for letting me host this Wiley Wallaby Gourmet Licorice Party!

​I have always been wary of traditional deodorants and was very happy that Seventh Generation came out with this Biodegradable Deodorant!  First, I love the scent, it is not too heavy and smells very natural.  It went on smooth and felt like something that would help my underarm skin.  I'm usually not that heavy of sweater, and this worked for me all day.  I love the natural ingredients and the fact that it is good for our waterways.

Cora Cup Cleanse is an easy to use, natural option for cleaning my Cora Cup.  The Cup Cleanse is a water based gel made with cucumber extract, lemon extract and witch hazel and no sulfates, parabens, fragrances or dyes.  To use it, you just rinse your Cora Cup, squirt some gel on and rub it in.  After that, just rinse.  The Cup Cleanse can be used in between cycles or between emptying and reinsertion.  The cleanse made it easy to feel clean even when I couldn't do a full wash.  I feel good about all of the ingredients and having them in my body.  Easy, discreet and natural, Cora Cup Cleanse is the perfect option for cleaning your cup.

​Seventh Generation's Mandarin & Yuzu body wash is a rich and has an amazing scent.  I believe in Seventh Generation's mission and this body wash fulfills that mission by having a 100% biodegradable formula, has no parabens or sulfates  and is 95% plant based.  Because of this, when using the body wash, there is not as much lather as you would have with other washes.  However, I could still feel the richness of the wash on my skin and felt clean afterwards.  I absolutely loved the scent and could still smell it long after my shower.

​Peach Out Dullness pads are really easy to use with a double sided gauze pad that you can use to scrub your face with.  The pads are soaked in good stuff for your skin like glycolic, citric and salicyclic acids to cleanse and exfoliate, plankton extract to hydrate and evodia to help you glow.  I noticed a boost after the first time I used it.  The only thing I noticed was that it leaves your skin a little sticky and the directions say not to rinse after applying.  

I tried out both the Queen and Twin Sleeplux air mattresses.  The built in pump is the best part.  Just plug in the mattress and it inflates quickly.  The twin takes about three minutes to inflate fully and the queen takes about five minutes to inflate fully.  The tops are flocked so you are not sleeping on sticky plastic and their is a built in pillow.  The bed was as comfortable as any air mattress during a night of sleep.  I didn't experience any leaks or noticeable loss of firmness.  Deflating and packing away was just as easy, although I wasn't able to get it exactly like it was originally, but I did get it back in the carry bag. 

​I was very excited to try Glow Habit Detoxifying Scalp Scrub in these dry winter months.  The scrub promises to remove scalp buildup and encourage microcirculation.  I also feel great using a product that is free from silicones, parabens and sulfates.  After using the scrub for a few weeks, my scalp does feel refreshed and I haven't noticed as much dandruff.  When I first received the product, I thought that the scrub would be an extra step within my shower routine; however I am very happy that the scrub can be used as a shampoo alone or in conjunction with your regular shampoo.  For me, it works great as a shampoo alone.  The scent is lavender, peppermint, charcoal which seems like a strange combination, yet works.  It is a little strong when first opened, if you are sensitive to smells.  My only complaint was the format of the packaging, a low, squat and wide tub with a twist off cap made this difficult for me to use in the shower as the tub didn't fit on any of my shelves.

Monk Fruit in the Raw is a zero calorie sweetener that is keto-friendly, zero calorie, zero carb, Kosher, vegan and non-GMO.  I mostly cared about the zero calorie part.  Monk fruit is a fruit that grows in Southeast Asia.  The fruit has an intense sweetness and to process it into a sweetener, it is mixed with erythritol.  Upon trying the sweetener all by itself, there is a mild fruity taste to the sweetener with an aftertaste of erythritol.  So, if you do not like the taste of erythritol, this may not be for you.  The Monk Fruit in the Raw mixed in really well with hot and cold drinks and I didn't notice a taste difference between Monk Fruit in the Raw and regular sugar.  I also tried using the sweetener in baking recipes.  While you can not switch out all of the sugar in a recipe for Monk Fruit in the Raw, you can cut the sugar down while substituting Monk Fruit in the Raw for a portion, making it just a little healthier.  Overall, a healthy sweetener which can be a great substitute for sugar in a variety of foods and drinks.  Monk Fruit in the Raw is a great fit if you are on a special diet or would just like to make a healthy switch.
