Graze - Box #1

Use this code for a FREE box: 3L3RDY3 (you must not already be a member to use this code) http://www.graze.com/

Graze is a website where you can purchase a weekly snack box, which contains healthy treats, such as, nuts and crackers. I say weekly but you can order as many as you want a week, apart from boxes are not sent for or on Sundays. Also if you want the fresh bread you can only order from Tuesday to Saturday. You get four different food items in every box unless you state you want the same thing to be sent out again.
The package came this morning in a biodegradable recycled board box. When you open the box there are four sections and each has a packet of healthy food samples. Underneath the sections there is a napkin. Each food comes in a small plastic box/packet, with a plastic film lid, which you peel to open. You also get a healthy food guide and some offer vouchers for your friends. All of the packaging is recyclable, so it is very earth friendly. I quite like the packaging because it is simple and displays all of the relevant information, but is also fully recyclable, which is definitely a bonus point.

Here’s what I received....
And a closer look at all four....
Lightly Toasted Pistachios
“Slightly toasted whole pistachios”
http://www.graze.com/products/browse/1008/nuts

They smell like they usually do, lovely. And they don’t really taste any different to regular pistachios, but slightly saltier, which is really nice.

Contains: Pistachio nuts and salt
Naked Goodness Seeds
“Pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds and sunflower seeds”
http://www.graze.com/products/browse/1011/seeds

They smell like seeds obviously, and slightly like uncooked rice seed. They do not taste very nice on their own, as it is like eating bird food, so I recommend that you use them in a salad.

Contains: Pumpkins seeds, Sesame seeds and Sunflower seeds
Cracking Black Peppercorn
“Crunchy rice crackers with cracked black pepper”
http://www.graze.com/products/browse/1014/crackers

They smell really nice and like black pepper and very crackery (if that’s a word). They actually smell quite spicy too. They taste a bit like ‘Snack a Jacks’ but spicy. As you take the last bite of the cracker you get the spicy black pepper taste all at once, which is actually quite pleasant.

Contains: Rice, Vegetable oil, Soy sauce (soybean, wheat, salt), Sugar, Tapioca starch, Corn maltodextrin, Chilli, black pepper, Garlic powder and Onion powder
Cheddar Gorge
“Cheese cashews, salsa corn sticks & herb crackers”
http://www.graze.com/products/browse/1014/crackers

The packet as a whole smells really spicy.

The cheese cashews have a slight and subtle cheesy scent and taste a bit like cream cheese sauce.

The salsa corn sticks smell like really spicy corn, funnily enough! They taste spicy and quite salty too and also like salted tortilla chips/crisps.

The herb crackers have a slight herb scent, but it’s not over powering. They taste a bit odd and like herbs and the texture is also quite weird and a bit like popcorn, but they are nice.

The Cheese Cashews Contain: Cashew nuts, Lactose, Salt, Natural flavourings, Onion powder, Sugar, Yeast extract, Garlic powder, Cheese powder (cheese, whey powder), Paprika, Curcumin, Sunflower oil and Rosemary
The Salsa Corn Sticks Contain: Corn, Vegetable oil, Lactose, Natural chilli flavour, Chilli powder, Onion powder, Garlic powder, Salt and Citric acid

The Herb Crackers Contain: Rice, Rice bran oil, Sugar, Tapioca starch, Soy sauce (soybean, wheat, tapioca starch, caramel), Salt, Tomato, Oregano, Onion, Pepper, Disodium guanylate and Disodium inosinate

My favourites from the box are the Lightly Toasted Pistachios, Cracking Black Peppercorns and the Salsa Corn Sticks. I would not try the Naked Goodness Seeds again because I am not crazy about seeds or salad and they don’t really serve any purpose to me.

Boots Fragrance Sampler Gift Set for Her 2015

I decided to treat myself to this little fragrance set. As you know, I am a perfume addict and I’m quite addicted to collecting perfume samples too! It’s this year’s Boots Fragrance Sampler set for Her. I saw last year’s advertised but I always thought it was a little expensive for what you get. The set basically contains eight samples of Boots best-selling female fragrances by other brands. The set comes in a small, thin cardboard box and each sample is set inside a plastic insert. You also get a small fragrance guide and the voucher, which is what you’ll need to get your full size bottle of your favourite sample. The eight samples in this year’s set are:- HUGO BOSS - Boss Ma Vie This is a 2ml sample vile in pipette form and can be exchanged for a 30ml bottle of the eau de parfum. “Inspired by the independent spirit of a woman, exuding a glow of femininity and confidence. Created around the cactus blossom, aiming to reinvent and modernize floral green notes ...

Glossybox #19 - December 2015

I have been really looking forward to this box as I knew it would be rose gold themed. All the products were carefully selected by the Beauty Blogger ReallyRee, for this special looking limited edition Christmas box.  Here is what I received:- être belle Golden Skin Caviar Eye Roll On | 10ml - £30.66 | This product is a bit odd and really doesn’t appeal to me at all! So Susan Statement Skin Highlighter Pencil in Starlight | 1.8g - £15.00 | This is a very strange colour and the cream shape is odd too. I am not interested in this product one bit. I prefer light pink highlighters and this is a yellow gold shade, not flattering at all for my skin tone! COLLECTION Long Lasting Nail Effects in Touch of Glamour (31) | 8ml - £2.99 | This nail polish looks really pretty and it is definitely my kind of shade (rose gold). I am looking forwarded to trying it on my nails. I think it would look beautiful on it’s own. Hylamide Pore Delete | 10ml - £18.00...

Katie Price 'Stunning' Perfume VS JoJo Siwa 'Be You' Perfume - Are they the same?

I was browsing on AllBeauty.com and looking at celebrity fragrances and I saw that one was listed for JoJo Siwa. I had heard of JoJo before, but I don’t really know anything about her. I clicked on it out of interest and when I first saw the image of the perfume, I thought maybe the wrong photograph had been uploaded until I clicked on it and saw the description of the perfume. When I first saw the photograph, before I clicked on it to read the description, I instantly thought, that’s Stunning by Katie Price! I looked into it a bit more and compared it to Stunning. The JoJo Siwa “version” is called Be You. Photo Source: Perfume.com Stunning by Katie Price ·          Released in 2007 (12 years ago). ·          Contains the notes; Mandarin Orange, Jasmine & Patchouli. ·          Classed as a floral scent. ·       ...
