I'm unfortunate enough to suffer from having huge black bags under my eyes which I hate as I always think I look haggard. As a result I've been hunting for a magical solution to mask my tired eyes. I stumbled across a few reviews of Maybelline's The Eraser Eye Concealer and it sounded very promising so on my next trip to boots I grabbed one to try out.

Jabula South African Restaurant
When it comes to food I love to try different and unusual things. Whilst looking for somewhere to go for lunch to celebrate my birthday I heard about an African restaurant that served up all kinds of unusual meats. Perfect! Si and I visited Jabula on a Sunday afternoon for lunch and were seated straight away. It's not a huge place but it has a really nice vibe to it. The tables were dressed with animal print table cloths and there were plenty of African style decorations around the place.

Graze
Graze boxes are far from being a new thing and I've been wanting to try them for a long time now. I finally got round to ordering my first one when I came across a code that gave me 2 free boxes. If you're not familiar with Graze they are a company that post out boxes of healthy treats and snacks. You can set up a subscription for one box a fortnight, one a week or two a week depending on how often you want to receive them. There are loads of different snacks to choose from including nuts and seeds, dried fruit, popcorn and even cheeky slices of cake and flapjack.
So far I've had 3 boxes and I've enjoyed almost everything that I have been sent. My favourite so far has been the Korai Chutney which is a spiced tomato relish dip with baked curry bites and is absolutely scrummy! Everything I've had so far has been bursting with flavour. I'm making a big effort in recent weeks to be more health concious when choosing what snacks I eat and these boxes have been a really big help.
Pictured above is my second box in which I received:
Scrumptious Blueberry Swirl - blueberry yoghurt raisins, raspberry infused cranberries and blackcurrants.
Applewood Smoked Beef Jerky.
Herby Bread Basket - mini garlic croutons, mini basil breadsticks and oregano rice crackers.
Summer Berry Compote - berry compote with wholemeal shortbread dippers.
Have you tried Graze yet? What are your thoughts?

Fudge Dynamite Rebuilder
Tortured is definitely how I would describe my hair! I dye my hair once a month, heat style several times a week and wear clip in extensions pretty much everyday. Of course I do my best to protect my hair but, in all honesty, none of this can be doing my hair any good! I'm always looking out for a good intense conditioner to look after my poor abused locks and have tried quite a few different brands in the past.

Figs & Rouge Aloe & Mint Balm
I just can't resist Figs & Rouge Balms. They smell gorgeous and come packaged in the most adorable retro style tins. I've tried a few different scents and so far my favourite has been the Sweet Geranium that came in one of my beauty boxes. It's just delicious! On a recent trip to Boots I spied this Aloe & Mint balm and picked one up as a little treat.
