Friday Favorites: Moda VoxBox and Honest Company

Happy Friday! This week's favorites....

Pumpkin Bread - I made this a few days ago. I have been looking for pumpkin bread recipe that does not use a lot of ingredients. I like my food simple with very little ingredients as possible because I like to use organic ingredients. I think this is the best one I've tried. My girls loved it. I will be posting the recipe soon. 

Honest Company - I have been an Honest Company customer for months now. I love their products. I order their monthly Essential Bundle a month for $35.95 which consists of 5 products of your choice. This month I tried their Organic Lip Balm Trio and Organic Breath Easy Rub. My girls love the lip balms. I love the Breath Easy Rub. It's just like Vicks but it's organic and smells much better.

Influenster - Have you heard of them? I recommend signing up. They send you products to try and review for FREE. I received my first Moda VoxBox from them a couple of weeks ago.

Rimmel London Scandaleyes Rockin’ Curves Mascara - This is my favorite product in the box. I like the shape of the applicator. It makes my lashes look full and curvy.

Rimmel London Moisture Renew Lipstick - this lipstick is ok. I just don't like the color I received. I don't like wearing pink lipstick.

Rimmel London Moisture Renew Lip Liner - honestly I don't like this one. You can't even tell you have it on or if it makes a difference wearing one or without. 

Puffs SoftPack - these tissues are really soft. I also like the packaging. The design is cute and soft plastic which can easily fit in my diaper bag.

JERGENS® Ultra Healing® Extra Dry Skin Moisturizer - this is a great hand lotion. It's good to have with you at all times especially now the weather is getting cold which means your hand is prone to dryness. I know mine does. It keeps my hand feeling soft and not greasy. I also like the scent.

resource® Natural Spring Water - This taste just like water. But it's good to know that resource is a sustainably sourced 100% Natural Spring Water from carefully selected sources with naturally occurring electrolytes for a clean, refreshing taste. resource comes in a bottle made with 50% recycled plastic* and is 100% recyclable.

Hair Food Moisture Hair Mask - This is my second favorite product in the box. It smells really good and makes my hair feels really soft after shower. I also like that it's Paraben Free and Minieral Oil Free.

Swiss Miss® Simply Cocoa - I love this. It has no artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives. It has only 5 simple ingredients. It would be perfect if it was organic.

Get Inside the Fun at iPlay America!

*We were given 5 free unlimited passes. All opinions expressed here are our own based on our personal experiences at iPlay America.*

Looking for something to do this weekend? Bummed out because its too cold to go to the boardwalk? Come check out iPlay America,  New Jersey's Premier Indoor Theme Park down in Freehold, New Jersey. 

Last week we were invited to their 115,000 square foot climate controlled, indoor facility. I was quite relieved that there was parking nearby and the best part is that it was free. Speaking of free, the entrance to the facility itself is free as well. Their state of the art facility combines city and boardwalk themes for those looking for that type of experience. With over nine indoor rides, party rooms, 200 arcade games, eateries, a candy shop and a full size restaurant, there is definitely something for everyone to enjoy. 

  

Rides range from go karts (my kid's favorite), laser tag (my favorite) to more kid friendly rides and attractions such as skyscraper, dizzy dragons, bumper cars and boardwalk bowling (my wife's favorite) meant for the younger children. And for the really young kids, those who can not take the bigger rides, they have a Just iKidz play area( for children under 100lbs.) which is a playground consisting of tunnels, slides, pad hops and web bridges.  The arcade boasts over 200 games for different age groups that takes an advanced debit card called a iPA Game Card that can be purchased at the grand lobby of the facility with points that never expire. 

 

    

Although iPlay America do not allow any outside food or beverages. The facility offers a full-scale restaurant as well as other dining options to take care of your food and beverage needs. Aside from the full scale restaurant ( that serves contemporary American menu such as burgers, pizza, salads and sandwiches, as well as a bar for those over 21), there are areas where you can get hot dogs, churros, and funnel cakes (in the boardwalk area), and wraps, pretzels and frozen yogurt (in the city area.) Not to mention Broadway Sweets, their confectionary store where we got some ring pops and chocolate covered, peanut butter ball on our way home. 

They have a seven Brownstone Celebration Rooms which can be used exclusively for birthday parties and the like. As well as their Encore Event Center, a large venue for concerts and big attractions (we were told the Big Apple Circus was just there as well as Bridgit Mendler).
