5. Keep your soft eyeliners and lip liners at their best by placing them in the freezer prior to sharpening and using them. It keeps the tip firm as you apply and ensures you get the maximum usage.

If you haven’t yet tried these amazing seeds you should definitely add them to next weeks shopping list!!!

Chia seeds are a ‘superfood’packed full of nutrients such as calcium (2 times the calcium of a cup of milk), 8 times more omega 3 than a piece of salmon, fibre, protein, zinc and B vitamins to name a few.

With just a teaspoon a day you will gain health and beauty benefits such as stronger bones, softer skin and stronger, shinier hair, increased metabolism, increased cell renewal and higher energy levels.

Not only is Chia good for you, it also has no taste and takes on a soft texture when it becomes wet making it undetectable as you eat it within your favourite breakfast meal or muffins.

Chia seeds are available at most health food stores.

These are a Few of My Favourite Things…

These are a Few of My Favourite Things…
With summer almost over it has gotten me thinking about a few of my favourite things that I have happily discovered over past couple of months. In my top five is Burt’s Bees Super Shiny Natural Lip Gloss in Sweet Pink. Where have you been all my life?!
This gorgeous lip gloss glides on smoothly and just gives a hint of colour, nothing too dramatic, just making your lips look fresh and glistening! And better yet it smells and tastes wonderfully fruity! The packaging is made with mostly recycled materials and it is not tested on animals so it’s not only good for your lips but good for your soul J
