Wash With Water

A Star Is Born, certified organic, unscented  baby lotion. 





This company does amazing products for children, from lotions to soaps to shampoos, all the products are 100% vegan and cruelty free. 

This baby lotion costs $22.60 for 113g

My 2 year old seems to like it and I'm happy knowing that there's no nasties being absorbed into his beautiful skin and that it's 100% pure and natural. I've tried it on my own skin too and it's really nice. It absorbs quite quickly too which is great especially for wriggly toddlers.

Chia Bia

Check out these great products from Chia Bia. 

I've been trying out the Milled Chia Seeds, Whole Chia Seeds, Chia & Blueberry Mix and Chia & Cranberry Mix and the Nutrient Bars. 




These Chia Bia Seeds are very easy to eat, as you just sprinkle or add them to cereals, drinks, salads, anything really. They're  so small that you don't really notice them and by adding these your adding omega 3, protein, fibre and antioxidants to your food. 



They're gluten free, trans fat free, pesticide free, sugar free and have no GMO. 

Chia absorbs up to 10 times its weight in water which will keep you hydrated for longer and feeling fuller for longer too. 

These are super foods at its best, they help with digestive disorders, balance blood sugar levels naturally, increase your energy levels, are a natural anti-inflammatory, improve memory and concentration and the fact that they make you feel fuller for longer it helps stop those cravings, so will stop you snacking. 

I really enjoyed the Nutrient Bars, they're great to pop in your bag when your on the go. My favourite was the Chocolate Cranberry & Coconut. I've also tried the Chocolate Apricot & Pumpkin and the Chocolate Nut & Seed. The 3 were all very tasty, my husband absolutely loves these bars too.

Ark. Age Aware Skincare..

Skincare products designed for our specific age groups.



I've been using these 4 products for a while now and the 4 of them used together has worked wonders for my skin. These specific ones are designed for skin up to early 30s.

They have lots of other skincare products for all ages. Check them out. 

I badly needed a new skincare regime and this worked perfectly for me. 

1• Cleanse, used twice daily on dampened skin, massage into face and neck and rinse with warm water. 

2• Exfoliate, same as above, I've been doing this daily before bedtime. 

3• Moisturise, morning and evening, it's a really nice moisturiser, drys in quickly which is great, not at all oily or greasy. 

I've been using the mask a couple of times a week too, which is great, as some masks give me breakouts, this one didn't. 

This was the Age Aware Discovery Collection, costs £28 for the 4, 30ml bottles and comes in a travel bag. These are ideal for traveling, perfect size and these 30ml bottles last a long time too. 




I love these Ark products, check out what other products they have available on their website www.arkskincare.com

Have a Superl!fe..

Take a look at these great products from Superl!fe. We're all very health conscious these days and these products are perfect to fit into your everyday life. 



I've been trying out a few of these amazing organic products and they're quite impressive.  






The Mrs Green Mix is a powder blend of 15 superfoods which can be added to your smoothies or juices. It's full of protein and fibre. This power contains Spirilina, yellow maca, acai, wheat grass, black maca, chlorella, reishi mushroom, cinnamon, tulsi, cacao, shatavari, turmeric, kelp, ashwagandha, moringa. The benefits from all these ingredients are amazing and a full list of what each ingredient is good for is available on the website www.haveasuperlife.com 






This mix is called Mrs Green Mix for a reason, it supports the hormonal and reproductive system and eases pms and more. I tried this with water and orange juice and I found it hard to drink so I like it best in fruit smoothies as it disguises the taste.



The mix is also available in Mr Green Mix which my husband is using at the moment, he doesn't like the taste either. 



These mixes cost €12.95 each for 120g. Considering you only need to use a teaspoon full in your drink, this pouch will last a long time. 






You can also get the original green mix which contains 8 superfoods, including hemp, cacao, maca, kelp, spirilina, chlorella, barleygrass and lucuma. Used in the same way by adding it to drinks. This costs €19.95 for 300g.



I've also been trying the superfood breakfast toppings, these are available in original, with acai and with coconut.






These contain 5 superfoods in one serving, including chia, cacao, hemp, goji and mulberries. The acai one has cinnamon in it also. Then my favourite has added coconut. These have no added sugar, are gluten and dairy free. You can sprinkle this topping on anything really, including porridge, cereal, fruit, I've even tried adding mine into smoothies too. These taste great and are good for a healthy nibble. 






These cost €10.95 each for 300g and the one with added acai costs €11.95 for 300g.



They offer discounts on multipacks and delivery within Ireland is free.
