Purex Triple Action Detergent {Review}

I was recently sent a full size bottle of the New Purex Triple Action Laundry Detergent, as being part of the Purex Insiders program. I have always been a huge fan of Purex, and with each new product they produce, the happier I am when doing my laundry!

When my package arrived, I opened it, and then I opened the bottle of Purex. I just love to smell laundry soaps, and this one smelled very nice. Mountain Breeze is the name of this one, and it had a nice clean smell, but not too overpowering, which is what I like. Here is the best part of this fabulous detergent. Its made for ALL washing machines. Old, and new, you can use this detergent with whatever type of washer you own. Very cool. It really stinks when you are looking for a detergent come to find out, its not compatible with your washer. See, do the "happy dance" now, because you won't run into that problem with this one.

I have 2 kids, who are 10 and 7, that LOVE playing outside and getting dirty. I put Purex Triple Action Laundry Detergent to the test, and that being said I really did. Since the weather has been really weird for this time of year, my kids have got to play outside and get really dirty and muddy. And every time this has happened, I've used the Purex and their clothes have came out clean and stainless. No use of pretreatments, I just put them right into the washer and BAM! The clothes were clean, and no one could tell they were covered in mud.
This detergent comes in many different scents as well as all their other products do.

Softsoap Coconut Scrub Bar Soap {Review}

I recently had the chance to try out a familiar brand, Softsoap, but I had never tried the Coconut Scrub Bar Soap prior to this. Well since I adore the scent of coconut, I knew I'd love using this product. Oh and I love Softsoap too, so it was a win win situation for me. I am pleased to say I would definitely use this soap again, and I highly recommend it to anyone who would like to feel refreshed and likes using products that exfoliate your skin.

Ingredients:
Soap (Sodium Tallowate, Sodium Cocoate and/or Sodium Palm Kernelate and/or Sodium Laurate)
Water
Glycerin
Fragrance
Sodium Chloride
Citric Acid
Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil
Pentaerythrityl Tetra-di-t-butyl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate
Pentasodium Pentetate
Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Fruit Extract
Gossypium Herbaceum (Cotton) Seed Oil
Tetrasodium EDTA
Titanium Dioxide
Iron Oxides


This soap is very gentle and safe for all skin types.
So I suggest you give it a try! Honestly I was very impressed with it, since I have been using body washes only for the past  15 years or so.

Disclaimer: I was sent this soap to review as part of my Vox Box because I am involved with the Influenster program.

Beanitos Bean Chips {Review}

I really am trying to eat better foods that have a healthier option for my family and I. So I was really excited when I came across a company called Beanitos. Not only are they good for you, they actually taste really good too. The first chip I tried was the Cheddar Cheese flavor. Mmm is all I can say. It was light, but crunchy or was it crispy? Either way they are delicious and had tons of flavor! And to eat a chip that isn't made out of potatoes, wow I didn't even miss the potato taste from these little guys.
Beanitos come in 4 different flavors! Black Bean, Pinto Bean, Chipotle BBQ, and Cheddar Cheese.

From Their Website:
Beanitos®, The Bean Chips™  were created by serious snackers, for serious snackers (aka For Human Beans™) who demand more than empty calories from their snacks. And, since corn is in over 4,000 products at the typical supermarket and has been linked to a host of health issues including obesity, all of our products are Always Corn Free™!
You see, we love to snack, but when looking for a low glycemic snack that tasted great, we simply could not find one. So we set out about creating one. Two years later: Beanitos, The Bean Chips were born and launched in January 2010! While we did create a great tasting snack that won't spike blood sugar, along the way, we were able to make our chips even better for you.
Beanitos are loaded with non-GMO vegetable fiber (20% of the daily value in just 10 chips, that’s 5 grams!), 4 grams of complete protein and are rich in Essential ALA Omega 3s (600mg in Pinto Bean and Flax) all which are packed into one great tasting serving!
Beanitos are always free of corn, wheat, soy, potato, trans fat, cholesterol and are verified non-GMO, gluten free, lab tested and certified low glycemic & kosher! For more information on our 3rd party independent testing, check out the health benefits page.
Beanitos®, Inc. is Born!
Brothers Doug and Dave Foreman established Bean Brand Foods to develop delicious and nutritious food products. Because of the numerous health benefits, their research focused development on products based on the humble legume. With this mission, Beanitos®, Inc. is committed to creating a variety of great tasting and healthy bean-based foods. Beanitos The Bean Chips are the initial products brought to market, and the Bean Team have several more products in development!

Don't these chips sound wonderful? Again, they ARE! You definitely will not be dissatisfied after trying these amazing chips! You will be filled up as well. So they make great snacks or eat them with a sandwich, weather you are watching what you eat, or just want something good to eat, these chips will be a good fit for you.
