CarAroma by GreenAir review and giveaway

New Green Air sent me this handy little car diffuser! This diffuser plugs into your car's lighter and instantly delivers a fine aromatherapy mist throughout your car.

Check out how compact it is! Mr Crazy life commutes 45 minutes each way and this little bottle (filled with immune formula) lasted a whole week. The little line allows you to see how empty the bottle is.

It was a bit harder to fill, so I suggest using the little pipette. Recommended:  Dilute 50 % of essential oil  with 50% water.
The diffuser does a little chirp when it diffuses which makes little crazy and myself giggle. Its a great portable option and is great to have for commutes or staycations. This is a great way to keep your family healthy on the go as well as make your car smell good without harmful chemicals!

Nebair Diffuser by GreenAir review and giveaway

Greenair sent me a different type of diffuser for review this time.

This diffuser is genius. You screw the bottle of oil, directly into the unit. No water to mess with! Mr Crazy Life stole this review item for his office. Mr Crazy Lifes favorite setting is the 120 minute setting with 10-15 seconds of diffusing and 30 seconds off.  While diffusing I put my finger right over the dispenser and there was no visible oil or moisture on my hand.

NebAir Smart System Features 48 settings. My favorite thing about this product is how its customizable diffusing by adjusting the settings. The first button on the left is your on time in intervals of 5 seconds. The second time setting is the full length of time for your diffuser to run (up to 120 minutes), and the third is the off interval.

• 4 stage Timer Modes
• 16 Smart Interval Settings
• 64 pre-set Smart Setting
   selection
Slide the cap directly onto the bottle full of oil. Here I have a grapefruit essential oil. The cap will fit on most essential oil bottles.



Next line up the cap/bottle with the mechanism on the unit.
Slide the cap/bottle upwards until it clicks.


This plug can be a USB adapter or plug into the wall converter.
This has to be one of my favorite diffusers for the office because its great for a specific time limit and you can customize the diffusing. There is no moisture involved so the threat of water near electronics is not a worry anymore. Because you can customize the time of dispensing you can make your oils go further as well. You can easily go a whole week or more on one bottle if you want. The unit is unassuming as well so can easily be used in the workplace on a low dispersing interval!

I might have to steal this one back from the Mr. ;)

DNA Life Bars review

DNA Life Bars Sent me three packages in exchange for my honest review.

Chocolate and roasted quinoa was Mr Crazy Life and little crazy lifes favorite by far. I loved the outside that was coated in delicious chocolate.
The Chocolate coconut fudge was my favorite by far. It was super moist and very hard to stop myself from eating both.

 
This green apple cinnamon was small but packed a punch. I tasted just like apple pie! It was pure heaven.

My favorite thing is that they are All-Natural, Gluten-Free, Soy-Free, Dairy-Free, and have no refined sugar.  Read about their ingredients here.

These bars are packed with pure, clean and delicious ingredients that you would use in your own kitchen.

Plant Therapy essential oil formulas review and giveaway

Plant Therapy sent me two of their kid safe essential oils for review.

Immune boom and A+ attention  were the two formulas. The scents are wonderful. We used Immune boom in our diffusers at night when the benefits could be more concentrated. The A+ attention was great for little crazy lifes aromatherapy pendant. We absolutely love the scents and feel they make our home a healthier place.

Tacky Box review and giveaway!

The Tacky box sent me this really awesome book/box set. It comes in either Margo or Max.

The idea of this box is to make choices with the words we say. Their motto is to make the world a kinder place one word at a time. Check out their campaign for kindness. This has made my daughter more aware of her words that are not necessarily nice and actually think about phrases that are inappropriate as well.

The papers to write bad words they hear and lock them up forever. This really brought to my attention how many mean words are in childrens shows these days. Mr. Crazy Life and I are very selective of what shows Little Crazy can watch. However as she gets older we cannot protect her from the world completely. This has actually given her a tool to discreetly write the word down and lock it up in the box. Grandma Crazy Life came over for Thanksgiving and said stupid. Normally Little Crazy would say "GRANDMA!". This time she disappeared and added it to her Tacky box.
 
Writing a word she heard to put in the tacky box.
This is little crazy lifes decorated box. She decided to write a positive statement on the lid of the box to remind her that her words matter. I asked her what she would like to change about the tacky box and she said nothing! She liked the idea of the monkeys being on the bottom leaving a blank slate on the top, but she really likes the box.
 
NOW! Enter to win!!! :)

O&E bag review - AMAZING!

This was sent to me by O & E Designs for review and my honest opinion.

This bag is VERY high quality and absolutely ADORABLE!!! I may need to order a few different designs because these will be awesome even into teenage years! Do you see the sparkles on this bag? SO awesome. My daughter was Elsa for Halloween and sported this bag as her candy bag. That's how adorable it was!

Joelle picked out high quality fabric and sewed this impeccable bag for my daughter. Then she had to go and sell them too! LOL! The way Joelle sews this bag and pieced them together is so artful and beautiful. My daughter (and myself) are going to want so many more patterns of this. I believe its the Evelyn bag). It has a magnetic closure and every detail is tended to. She has not overlooked one single detail.

Heart Felt Dryer Balls

Heart Felt Dryer Balls sent me this set of 4 dryer balls to review with my honest opinion.  

First of all the packaging! Adorable and simple. This would make a great baby gift!
 
Secondly a few facts.
These are made from densely felted organic New Zealand wool.
 
-When placed wet laundry they move between the folds breaking up clumps of wet clothes so the hot air can circulate and dry faster.
-The movement of the dryer balls act like a fabric softener (WITH NO CHEMICALS)
-The wool dryer balls absorb moisture reducing dry time by 30-50%.
This saves time and money! 
Check out their instructional video here!  I wish I would have had these when I was doing loads of cloth diapers! These are fantastic. I don't use chemical dryer sheets so these are amazing. I put a couple drops of essential oil on each ball and throw them in. VOILA! Wonderful smelling laundry without the toxic smells and customizable too! I use lavender when drying my daughters blankets for bed since I try to time it for the evening. My clothes I usually use lemongrass, and for hubby something a bit more manly. Here is a video on essential oils with the dryer balls.  I love watching her videos because her accent is ADORABLE! :)

If you have eczema or sensitive skin? Enjoy hypoallergenic, chemical free, naturally softened clothes.


Now enter to win your own set for yourself or as a gift! These are fantastic and I will be ordering more for friends having babies. :)

New green air Essential Oil diffuser and pendant review and giveaway


New Green Air sent me a two more diffusers for my honest review!

This product is so awesome. As Ive mentioned in my previous review with New Green Air Ive gotten into essential oils for health and healing purposes. This diffuser has a light that turns completely off. Since Mr. Crazy Life doesn't do well with sleeping with any lights this bad boy really fit the bill.
I grabbed some luke warm water and essential oil. I filled the base to the fill line and added 5 drops of essential oil.  I clicked the button on the base to start a show of rainbow colors fading into each other and the cold steam coming out the top of the cone.  




 





I absolutely LOVE these diffusers.  These spa vapor units have directional spouts which is nice because my daughters goes on a shelf in her room and this helps direct the mist over her bed while she sleeps.  This unit runs for 5-6 hours with autoshut off. 
 At night you are able to click the button a second time so that it just diffuses the oil. Mr Crazy Life cant sleep with light as in the previous review so this one was welcomed with rave reviews.

What we love about these diffusers is we are able to customize the scents we want without all the chemicals in commercial products. 

Pendants  - NewGreenair is now offering a fabulous line of Essential Oil Jewelry. This is a  sterling silver pendant. The necklaces allow you to carry your favorite essential oil. Add a couple drops of essential oil and the oil disperses from your body heat warming the glass/oil. These come with a velvet jewelry bag and 2 - 3ml droppers
 
Front with gem
back
I wore this when I wasn't feeling good and felt like I was coming down with something. Within an hour I felt fine and continued to wear it all day. Whatever congestion I had was GONE!

    Go Macro Bars review and giveaway

    Go Macro sent me three bars to sample and give my honest review on.  
    I cut all three bars in half to share with the Crazy Life  Family. It was very hard to pick a flavor that we all liked.  Cashew butter and the peanut butter chocolate chip were tied for number one. The Sunny uplift was good, but didn’t seem as much of a “treat” as the other two.

    Cherries and berries was the first.  Very tasty with a slight tang of the berries. Delicious
    My personal favorite (as well as little crazy life and mr crazy life) was the peanut butter chocolate chip. This is the best combo EVER.

    Third was cashew butter. Very mild and extremely tasty. This would be a great choice for picky kids because its pretty mild.
     
     
     I love their principles! Veg out (vegan) , Live long (macrobiotic), be well (wholesome), community (give back), and tread lightly (sourced sustainably).
    These VERY tasty bars are:
    Macrobiotic- well balanced nourishment
    Vegan – good for you organic ingredients
    Fair trade – sustanable farming techniques
    Sourced sustainabley - Packaging – 100% post consumer waste
    Gives back – reinvests in their communities, workforce, and the world by donating, educating, environmental responsibility and a devotion to the well being of all living things
     
    “GOMacro believes in feeling good about what we eat”. 
    I love this company. They think about how things taste, how its made and if it sustains the environment. This company is family owned and are interested on the impact they make. 
     
     
    I received three bars that were packaged in a very cool molded puple tray made of 100% post consumer waste. I actually saved this tray because of the information on the flyer. “They can be composted or used as seed starters and planted directly in the ground”.
