This year it seems like my son is obsessed with Star Wars. He also loves playing games so when he heard about WonderForge coming out with new Star War games he was ecstatic.

One of the new games is called Star Wars Face Off Dice Game. What is really cool about this game it comes with a dice cup but one side it has Darth Vader and the other side has Luke Skywalker. My son was absolutely loved it because it had Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker. 

This game is recommended for ages 8 and older. When playing this game it is recommended for 2-4 players. This game includes 1 Darth Vader/ Luke Skywalker Dice Cup and 5 dice.

This game reminds me of a kids version of yatzee. My son loves playing this game and it simple but fun. It is not that time consuming either. What I also love about this game you can take it anywhere you want it small and travels well.

In this game you go head to head in this action packed bluff n battle dice game. Roll hero combos to rack up points or push your luck and go villain to steal the win. 

This would make a great stocking stuffer for the holidays!! Check out your local retailer for this game or at WonderForge.

This year Star Wars is very popular once again for this holiday season. One of my favorite places that I like to shop at is Hammacher Schlemmer. They have about everything you can imagine on their website. 
I was excited when I was able to review one of their toys from their website. I was able to review their Voice Activated R2-D2 robot from Star Wars. My 6 year old son was very excited when he was able to review this product. He has been over obsessed with Star Wars the past year and wants everything Star Wars for Christmas this year. The Voice Activated R2-D2 is a motorized replica of the headstrong little droid from Star Wars films. This robot will respond to voice commands, navigates rooms and hallways. My son was amazed on how this robot can do that. He was excited to see the robot follow him and roam the hallways. What is really neat about this robot is that R2 obeys more than 40 voice commands. For example you can command him to turn around and move forward. My son loves playing games with R2 and playing tag with him. R2 has a infrared sensor where he can go in a room and sear for people. My son loves going around the house and having R2 follow him which is a neat site to watch. I know you are probably wondering how this can happen but with the infrared sensor lets him do that.
This is an amazing toy for children and would make a great holiday present. Make sure you stop by Hammacher Schlemmer and pick up your holiday gifts. They offer a variety of different products.

She was very excited because one of her favorite colors is blue. Dynamo is a master of distraction and can seemingly disappear in a flash. He's is also known for his signature lighting bold in his eyes and swirly pattern on his back. 

What is really need that Dynamo can read and respond to the Magic Cards or predict the pea's location in the shell game trick. Which is fun to watch. My daughter has a great time watching them perform tricks and stunts. 

When you find your new Zhus pet you can get one of two kinds. They come in magicians and stunt pets. Magicians come with three magic cards and a magic wand. They will be able to per for the magic tricks as well as performing stunt. There are also stunt pets which Dynamo falls into that category. 

So make sure you pick up one of your Zhus pets for your child stocking. You will not be disappointed. Make sure you connect with them on their media sites below.

SpyX is a new collection that mmp living is offering just in time for the holiday season.

The first item that I was able to review was their SpyX/ Long Range Wrist Talkies. This product retails for about $44.99. If you have a child like my son who is into the spy stuff than this product is perfect for your child for Christmas. When I received this product the only negative thing about the product was the plastic covering was loose and the product was loose in the box. Although when I tried them they worked great and we did not have any problems. My son had a lot of fun playing with they wrist walkie talkies with his friend from school when he came over for the day. They had different spy missions. With these walkie talkies you can talk to your friends through them up to a mile away. With these walkie takes there are 16 through 22 channels to fine a free channel. What is really fund about these walkie talkies is that they are voice activation that make these walkie talkies fully hands free. 

The next set that we received was their SpyX Night Ranger Surveillance Set. This set retails for 44.99. This set would make a great starting out set for your new spy. This set includes Night Mission Googles, Invisible Ink Pen, Micro Motion Alarm and Micro Voice Disguise. My sons favorite item out of this set is the high tech night vision goggles. They are easy fitting and they don't move a lot. The also let you see up to 25 feet away in the dark and they also include a cool flip out scope. The pen writes message in invisible ink and keep the message safe until you want to reveal your message. This set also has motion alarm that help protect your little spy. What is fun with this is you can record your own voice. 

Over all both sets are amazing and would make great Christmas gifts for your special spy. I would say overall both sets are great quality items and they will hold up for awhile if taken care of. My son can be a little rough at times but their still in great shape. I also think these sets are very creative and a lot of fun. These sets would make a great toy for sleepovers.

I never really care about my skin much until after I had my daughter. My skin has always look great to me until after I had my daughter. Now I have been trying to find product that will help my skin and help it make my skin look batter. I have heard a lot of complements on ToiletTree Products. ToiletTree Product carries a Professional Skin Care System that looked interesting to me. I was quite not sure if it was for me or would it irritate my skin. I was excited though when I found out I was able to review the Professional Skin Care System. I had the choice to choose Pink, White or Bule. Out of the three choices I decided that I was going to choose the color pink.

One think that I noticed with shipping that it arrived fast in my opinion which is a good thing. When I took this out of the box I was quite intrigued with the options that his product does. I could not wait to try this product to see if it would really help and make my skin look healthier. The Professional Skin Care System helps stimulate your skin and help renew it and help remove the dead skin cells to expose healthier skin on your face. I want my skin to look the best it can be since I will be finishing college and starting a new career. I want my skin to look healthy and nice when I start my new job. Professional Skin Care System is going to help me get to that step. I like how the Professional Skin Care System offer several attachments for different types of care, such as body brush, face brush soft and medium and pumice stone. These are interchangeable rotating heads so they are very easy to change. I first tried the body brush and let me tell you I really liked the body brush. After using the body brush my skin felt great. My skin felt great and started looking great after a couple usages of the body brush. Then I tried the face brush's the medium and the soft. I would have to favor the soft brush more due to my face being sensitive and can get irritated easily. My face has felt smooth and less breakout which I found amazing. My face has not looked this good in awhile.  Lets not get on the subject on my feet. They where terrible before I used the pumice stone. I did not think that this would help my feet at all because my feet are beyond horrible.  After trying this product on my feet several time. I seen a huge difference and my feet do not feel rough like they used to. I was highly impressed.

After reviewing the Professional Skin Care System I would highly recommend it. There are many benefits to it. The number one benefit to the Professional Skin Care System is that it made myself feel better. So if I feel better about myself that this product is great. If you are trying to have better skin I would highly recommend looking into this product. You can find their information at

Than I would recommend the Beatrix Girls for your little girl for Christmas. Who are the Beatrix Girls you may ask? The Beatrix Girls are an accomplished pop band with real music that girls are sure to adore. There are four different dolls and they are Lark, Ainsley, Brayden and Chantel. Each girl sings and plays and instrument and they even write their own songs.

I was excited when we were given the opportunity to review one of the dolls. We were able to review Ainsley. Ainsley is the girl on the drums. I was impressed when our doll arrived in the mail. I was surprised on how big Ainsley was. I imagined them to be smaller than they are. This doll is perfect sized for my daughter. When she saw Ainsley my daughter was super excited and wanted to play with her right away. When it comes to dolls I want to make sure they are decent quality and durable. I am one of those moms that worry that a piece will break off and either hurt my daughter or it may get swallowed. Ainsley is a durable top notch doll for your child. I also like how Ainsley is dress modest also. 

Overall I am impressed with the quality and the message that the Beatrix Girls sends. These girls are following their dreams and encouraging girls to follow their dreams. I also like how these dolls are spunky and different from the other dolls that you find at the stores. This would be a great Christmas gift for you little girl.

This oil is formulated for women who have sensitive to normal skin. When I tried this product I felt like I was in the spa. I applied this product to clean skin. I followed their directions and dabbed a little bit on the nose, chin, cheeks and forehead and blended into my skin. This oil was easy to massage in the skin and did not leave a lasting greasy feeling afterwards. Afterwards my skin felt refreshed and hydrated.

The next product that I found in my travel kit was the Annmarie Ayurvedic Facial Scrub. This comes in a 2 oz bottle. This scrub is an exotic blend of Indian herbs, Moroccan Rhassoul Clay and traditional herbal treatments. When I used exfoliants I am nervous to try them because my skin is very sensitive. This exfoliant is very gentle on my skin and it helps get rid of the dead skin cells. You can use this product 3-4 times a week. I massaged this product on my face and neck.

The first product that I was able to try was their Skin Renewal Shea Body Butter.      This product comes in a 8 fl oz jar. When I opened up this jar it had an amazing smell to it. It is no lie that I have dry sensitive skin so I am always on the look out for new products that will help my skin. This product will help renew your skin with the rich benefits of the Dead Sea Minerals and Shea butter. This is known to help restore elasticity to the skin while nourishing dehydrated cells through healthy anti oxidants enriched emollients. When I first tried this product I became obsessed. I was very fond of the smell. Personally when I used this product I used it after I shower, so it locks in the moisture after I use it. When I massage the cream in my skin it absorbs quite quickly. It does not leave and residue or greasy feeling after using. It leaves a nice scent after rubbing it in. I would definitely keep using this product. 

The second product that I got to review fromDead Sea Spa Care was the Anti Aging Gel Peel. Dead Sea Anti-Aging Peeling Gel is a great product to use on your face and help cleanse your skin. When I tried this product I washed my face with warm water. I Apply the Dead Sea Anti Aging Peeling Gel thinly and rub it in gently in your skin. After rubbing the product in wash warm water off right after using the product. This cream was more like a gel cream and it rubbed in really good. After doing that you can see that it was working because the dead skin was coming fun. I washed the gel off and then my face was very smooth. I would recommend this as a great holiday gift.

Another product that I received was there Pumice Stone. I was excited about this product because my feet really need some tender, love and care. This Pumice Stone is shaped like and oval bar of soap. When I used this product I placed a few drops of the body wash on the stone. I scrubbed the bottom of my feet and I was quite surprised how well it worked. After using this product and after I got out of the shower I applied lotion to my feet. I would highly recommend this product. 

The last product that I received for review was their Dead Sea Salt Scrub Aromatic Body Treatment Nourishing, Exfoliating Body Scrub. This product was made in Italy. The weight of this product is 20 oz. This product is the ultimate aromatic body exfoliating treatment. This product has pure dead sea salt crystals absorbed into a mixture of select aromatic oils. The salt in this product gently exfoliate my skin. The oils in the skin softens and moisturize the skin. When I applied this product it does not leave a greasy feel. I use this product 2-3 times a week when I take a shower. When using in the shower I massage this product on my skin. After using this product I use warm water to rinse of than pat dry. My skin feels amazing after using this product. My skin feels smoother and more hydrated after using.

I have been a huge fans of Dead Sea Products and after using these product I fell more in love with their products. I would highly recommend buying these products for gifts this holiday season. They would go great in a spa gift basket or stocking stuffers. You are able to find their product at the link below.

I love to cook on the grill and the electric frying pan. The only bad thing about cooking on the grill and the frying pan is I never know when the meat that I am cooking is done. There are times when I have cooked meat overdone and there are times when it cooked underdone. I have been on a look out for a decent food thermometer that I could use while cooking. 

I came across EatSmart PrecisionPro Food Thermometer and I was excited that I was given the chance to review this product. When I received this product it was packaged in a secure packaging. The thermometer comes in a protective covering so the thermometer does not bend or break. 

What I like about this food thermometer is waterproof pen style digital thermometer. When I tried it for the first time when I was testing chicken I was surprised on how fast the thermometer response was. It was less than five seconds to get a response. The accuracy of this product is give or take .5 degree in critical food zone of 140 degrees to 180 degrees. I am a huge fan of this product and it comes in handy because I can get an accurate reading with in 5 seconds. Where my other thermometer it would take a long time to read. I also like that if you forget to turn this product off it will automatically turn off in 5 minutes. If you love to cook than this product is perfect for you.

I am always looking for the best products out there for my children. I know that I have been trying to get my children into healthy habits while they are wrong. My four year old is harder to get him wanting to brush his teeth. It seems like he is always in a hurry. On the hand my daughter is always begging me to let her brush her teeth like five time a day. She learned very early how to brush her teeth. My biggest fear is what is in the toothpaste and is it harmful. Majority of the time I try to get them to spit it out but we know most of the time they end up swallowing the toothpaste. I really do not want my children swallowing any bad that can hurt them.

I am excited to say I found a place called Jack n' Jill natural Toothpaste. I am very excited that they have decided to expand to the US. Which is very nice to us. They are very successful in Australia and the UK. I received two toothpastes and a cute toothbrush for review. The two flavors that I received where raspberry and blueberry. I already new which kid to try which toothpaste on. Then the toothbrush that I received was 100 percent cornstarch. My daughter seemed to really like the raspberry toothpaste due to after brushing her teeth she said yum. You have to love two year old's. Than my four year old loves blueberry tasting stuff, so i let him try that one and it seemed to be a hit. He is very picky when it comes to any kind of toothpaste he usually will spit anything out and say yuck. He actually did not make any comment and brushed his teeth. Which that should mean he actually liked the flavor. I also like how these toothpaste are organic so that is a major plus and I do not have worry that they are ingesting any bad chemicals. 

My daughter loved the toothbrush. For the first day she had to take it and show everyone. Then show them how you brush your teeth. Let me tell you she is a character. This toothbrush is biodegradable and compostable which is a major plus. I would highly recommend these products. My children likes their products and said they are better then the toothpaste they have. What are you waiting for if you have children go and check this site out already!!

Looking for that special gift? HSI Professionals offers a variety of hair care products such as hair dryers, flat iron, curling iron and more. I was excited when I was able to try HSI Professional Salon Model 11/4" Ceramic Flat Iron. 

When I received the package in the mail I was surprised to see what was inside. The flat iron came in a nice sturdy box that protected it nicely. Although there was a couple dents in the packing and a tear, but that had no effect on the flat iron. When I opened up the box to see the flat iron I was impressed. It smaller than the other flat iron that I owned a few years ago. It is also very light, so it easy to work with. When I looked in the box it also comes with a small bottle of argan oil and a heat glove that goes with the flat iron.

Features of the HSI Professional Flat Iron:

• 1 1.4" Solid Ceramic tourmaline ionic plate
• Flash quick heating with even heat distribution
• Digital LCD temperature control
• Auto Shut Off and sleep mode feature
• Heats up to 450F with seconds with the touch of one button
• Dual Voltage 100-240v
• Floating plates that adjust to your hair
• Advanced infrared ceramic heat technology
• Straighten-curl-flip-style
• Ergonomic design for additional handling grip, control and performance

I will be honest I love straightening my hair, but I am afraid to. I don't want to dry out my hair nor damage it while straightening it. With HSI Professionals flat iron I do not have to worry about that. This flat iron has a solid ceramic tourmaline ionic plate that will straighten your hair without damaging it. I also like how this iron has a sleep mode incase your forget about it and leave it on. When I tried this product it is easy to use and makes your hair look great! I like how this flat iron has LCD screen that tell you hot hot it is. The only thing that I don't like about it that it is in the inside of the flat iron. It make it a little tricky to use. Although the provide a glove so you will not get burned while straightening your hair. I love that benefit because I am always burning myself it seems. I also like that this iron will straighten your hair and you do not have to keep going over that piece of hair making sure that it straight. Also it does not make your hair frizzy either while straightening it. 

I am very impressed with this flat iron and would be my first choice of flat iron to use. I will definitely be keeping this product out for use. This would make a great holiday gift for your teenager or mother for the holidays.
