5 ACAI BOWL RECIPES USING FOCUS SUPERFOODS*

Tuesday 31 May 2016

We live in a generation where everyone has become more concerned with their health, eating well and all the latest foodie trends, one of which are the very fruity and colourful Acai bowls. The acai berry is found in south and central america, and is full of antioxidants and omega 3 making it a great superfood. I got sent some Acai Berry powder to incorporate into my superfood smoothies and desserts. The key to creating a thick, almost froyo like consistency is to use frozen fruit in the mix. Here are some of my favourite recipes using the focus supplements! 


♡ PRODUCT REVIEW: FORZA HYDRATRIM WEIGHT LOSS SUPPLEMENTS* ♡

When it comes to dieting and weight loss, my problem isn't cutting out fatty foods so much, it's more that I love carbs and find that salads and soups usually don't do the job when it comes to keeping me full until the next meal. This is where Forza Hydratrim comes in, allowing me to keep hunger pangs at bay and keep me satisfied for longer. 

SPENDING A WEEK IN IBIZA, WITHOUT BREAKING THE BANK.

Sunday 29 May 2016

Hey guys! Sorry for being MIA this last week but if you follow me on Instagram or any other social media platform, you might have seen I've been away in the island of Ibiza having the time of my life - and the sunburn to go with it. I'd been so busy on the lead up to the trip I hadn't really looked into it and I wasn't as prepared as I was with my other holidays, meaning we hadn't booked any tickets for anything and we were simply going to go with the flow. Keep reading to find out more about my time there, tips and tricks to save money and of course where the best places to go are!

PRODUCT REVIEW: FILLERINA LIP VOLUME *

I was so excited when I was approached by Dermacare Direct to review one of their new products on their website. I was torn between their brow & lash accelerator and their lip plumping product and ultimately the thought of having lips to rival those of the Kardashians pulled me towards trying the Fillerina Lip Volume. Firstly, I was very impressed with the results and before I scare you off thinking it had me injecting my lips daily, it's safe and non-invasive - so keep reading to find out more about the product if you'd like to get your hands on one. 

10 WAYS TO SAVE MONEY WHEN YOU'RE BROKE AF.

Thursday 19 May 2016

I'm the first to admit, I suck at saving money. I was meant to be on a strict budget and then I went and bought a Kylie Lip-kit because it was obviously a necessity. After splurging on a couple of flights for my holidays for the year, I found myself in a bit of a pickle because I still had to live with the money I had left and save for the trips themselves! Which is why this past month I've had to make a few changes to my lifestyle (it involves less nights out at Mahiki) and more working! Here are a few of my trips for saving money when you've gone a bit over board.


♡ PLAN YOUR SUMMER WARDROBE WITH JOE BROWNS* ♡

Wednesday 18 May 2016

With all the great English sunshine we've been having lately, you'd think it was here to stay. Even though today it's back to being miserable and raining, luckily I'm off to Ibiza on Saturday! Which means holiday shopping and trying to get a head start on my tan using gradual tanning moisturiser. I've always loved all things 50s when it comes to fashion - and Joe Browns supply the perfect summer dresses for that.

The Met Gala is probably the Hollywood event of the year where celebrities take the most risks with their fashion choices, and some of the times it simply goes very very wrong.
