Review: Amrita Easy Detox 3 Day Mini Kit
January is traditionally the time for people to give their bodies a rest from Christmas excess and whether you call it a ‘new year, new you’ thing, a cleanse, a fast or a detox, they all basically boil down to the same thing: ‘I’m a fat, hungover bloater and IContinue Reading
Review and Giveaway: Ten Acre Crisps and Popcorn

Natur Boutique Artichoke Tea
I got sent some Natur Boutique Artichoke Tea to try. It was beyond minging. I don’t know what I was expecting, but I wasn’t expecting a mouth full of artichoke flavoured hot water. I poured it down the sink and made myself a nice mug of hot chocolate instead. IfContinue Reading
