Breville Blend Active

Hey Jelly Beans,

Those of you who follow me on Instagram will know that there's a new love in my life- The Blend Active Blender/Smoothie Maker by Breville.
 
Although I eat a varied, diet I struggle to get my 7 a day in, particularly during months where there's not much seasonal fruit on offer so I looked in to getting a juicer.  After a few discussions with people and a trawl through the internet I decided to get this little beauty in favour of a juice extractor.
The great thing about blenders is that, unlike a juicer, instead of separating the pulp from the juice it just blends it all together. Less waste and lots more nutrients- boom. Plus the fact that for me, having more bulk to my drink would keep me fuller for longer.  I bought mine from Home Bargains for £14.99.
It's an absolute dream to use, and more importantly, to wash up. Put your ingredients in the bottle, screw on the lid, tip it upside down and clip into the blender. Then blend it all together, unscrew it, whack on a lid and drink up. 
 
 
 
I honestly can't recommend it enough and it seems a lot of other people like the look of it too, I posted a photo on my personal Facebook and five of my friends have already bought one.
 
Do you prefer juicing or blending? What's your favourite flavour? Post your recipe below or send me a photo to @xhixxiex on Twitter or Instagram! 
 
That's it lovelies. Speak to you all again soon with another post.

Kong Wobbler Interactive Dog Toy Review

Kong Wobbler Interactive Dog Toy Review There aren’t many toys that last a long time in this household but the Kong Wobbler has been around for a long, long time. I was hesitant at first because I’m cheap and they make me skeptical given my fur babies track record for destruction. I will say it’s not completely indestructible though; when I first got Harvey the Wobbler,  I accidentally left him with it for a few hours and after that it wouldn’t close anymore, he managed to break a few pieces off. I replaced it because it is such an easy way to keep my dog occupied.  Our new Wobbler wont have a scratch on it; it’s pretty durable and tough.   Harvey Loves His Kong Wobbler Even with repeated uses Harvey still gets excited to play with it. It’s fun watching him push it around with his nose and paws. Jumping around and growling at it. I don’t have to worry about him eating too fast. Large deep chested breeds are predisposed to bloat...

NYX Haul Review

NYX Stay Matte But Not Flat Foundation This is my favourite day time foundation, I wear this day to day going to work and what I love about it is the coverage it gives me and the fact that it’s long lasting. I do have to wear a primer underneath to get the full days wear. The name states its Matte but not flat, but I don’t find this foundation mattifying at all, if anything it leaves a dewy type finish on the skin and because I like a matte finish on my skin, I do have to mattify it with a powder. I wish there were more shades in this foundation.       NYX HD Concealer I use this concealer for under eyes, to cover up dark circles, the concealer is quite lightweight and I have often read that it’s a cheaper dupe for the NARS Radiant Concealer, it feels really light on the under eye area and give good coverage, however, I felt that around 4-5 hours later the layer started to become more transparent and started to fade away. I do like this product but, I jus...
