Hunu Collapsible Pocket Cup

March 26, 2021 No Comments

Hi Friends,

Hope you’re all keeping well. I haven’t been on the blog for a while because we’ve been renovating our new house, but I took a little break today. I was chuffed to receive my Hunu collapsible pocket cup in the post yesterday.

Thanks to the lovely people over at Hunu I was able to have my coffee on the go this morning!

The great thing about the Hunu collapsible cup is that it fits compactly in your pocket or bag and is light as a feather. It comes with a little heatproof band for when using with hot drinks to protect your hand. That wraps around the cup when its folded down so it’s really compact for traveling. read more

Eco Friendly Dental Supplies by Brushd

January 24, 2020 No Comments

Hi Lovelies,

I have been so busy lately, but I’ve been wanting to do a post on my latest find, eco friendly dental supplies by Brushd. Hope you are all enjoying the new year, even though January can be a drag. I have decided to start my new years resolutions on February 1st this year instead, since January is a miserable month altogether I think!

Anyhoo, I want to get healthy and fit again as that seems to have slipped big time for me over the last few months. Feeling very sluggish and much like a couch potato at the moment. Another big thing on my agenda for new year, new me is fixing my dental issues. read more

Coconut Matter Eco Friendly Natural Deodorant Review

September 12, 2019 No Comments

Hi Friends,

Today I am reviewing the Coconut Matter eco friendly natural deodorant range. I reached out to Coconut Matter after discovering them via the Ethical Influencers page. I have been on the hunt for an eco friendly natural deodorant forever!

I did a review a while back on the Pierre d’alun natural deodorant stone and have been using mine since I got back from Morocco last November. It lasted the year but I missed the nice fragrance since it has no scent. I was really keen to try out the Coconut Matter deodorants when I spotted them. read more

Pierre d’alun 100% Natural Deodorant Stone – Amazing!

November 29, 2018 8 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Finally I have found what I have been searching for all along, the Pierre d’alun 100% natural deodorant stone. It is nothing short of amazing! I have been trying to find a good quality natural deodorant for a while now and had been fairly unsuccessful so far. I have tried a few natural brands and wasn’t overly impressed by the results. I seemed to be re-applying them during the day or just discontinuing use. I was reluctant to fork out more money in the hope of finding a good one but I really don’t like the chemicals in the non-natural kind so I was apprehensive. read more
