January Degustabox Review + £6 off Discount Code


Hi beaut's...

I have a subscription box review for you all today but it's a subscription box with a difference.... it contains yummy food and drink, so say hello to Degustabox*. Degustabox works very much like how beauty subscription boxes work, for £12.99 a month (postage included within the £12.99 price) you will receive 9 to 14 surprise food/drink products, many that are completely new to the market! So if your a bit of a foodie like myself  and you love subscription boxes your going to love this beaut's!

 Anywhooo onto what yummy treats I received in my January Degustabox...
Conscious Chocolate £3.00
I'm kicking things off with my favourite... chocolate ha ha! Conscious Chocolates are raw, organic, vegan, handmade, truffle like chocolate bars and oh my goodness it's tasty. I actually got the Intense version which is dark chocolate with kick of vanilla, its great if your a chocolate that wants to eat chocolate in moderation because you literally only need a cube of this gorgeous stuff, it would also work will in baking too.

Cold press Golden Delicious £1.40
My boyfriend literally polished this off the second he saw it, it's basically a golden delicous apple that's been cold pressed so it tastes fresher and retains all it's nutrients.

Jordan's Country Crisp in Fruit and Nut £2.69
Jordan's Country Crisp cereal in Fruit and Nut sounds super yummy and I can see this going well with my favourite Muller light yogurt, mmmm! 

Yushoi £2.00
Next we have the Yushoi Snapea rice sticks, these are a baked snack made using grean peas, I love shareing bags like this for movie nights as they are a great alternative to a big bag of Dorito's haha. 

Crobar £2.25
Crobar's natural energy bar is is Degustaboxes product of the month this month, it contains cricket flour (eeewwww), nuts, seeds and fruit and claims to give you that boost of energy when you need it, it certainly sounds interesting doesn't it!

Clarks Fruit Syrup £2.39
Clarks Fruit Syrup is a naturally sweet low GI syrup that can be used to sweeten hot drinks, in baking, on plain yogurt or porridge instead of other sugary syrups, this sounds pretty amazing and I cant wait to try it.

Finn Crisp £1.20
Finn Crisps really remind me of those Ryvita thins as they look so similar, you can use them to snack on with cheese, tomatoes, fish plus much more which sounds rather nice to me. Finn Crisps are made from wholegrain, are rich in fibre, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants and are baked with sourdough, they are also really low in fat!

Amoy Cooking Sauces 2x £1.79
I love making curry's so I cant wait to use these Amoy cooking sauces, I got the Thai Green Curry sauce (yum) and the Malaysian Laksa sauce which sounds amazing but so I'm keen to try that one first he he. 

Slim Noodles £2.49
These Slim Noodles are a low in calorie alternative to to regular noodles that let you savour your favourite noodle dishes whilst keeping you on track for weight loss success. It's practically free from everything and only contains 9 calories which sounds bizarre but amazing all at the same time so I cant wait to try these and see if they are still really tasty.

Tsingtao £2.00
Finally we have a bottle of Tsingtao which happens to be the finest beer in China apparently and ties in well with the Chinese New Year coming up! I wont be drinking this but I'm sure the boyfriend will love it.

Overall I love everything in my Degustabox, all in all I think it's such a great take on a subscription box, I love the whole element of a food surprise and getting excited about what meals or cakes I can whip together, it's fab! You can find Degustabox on Twitter and Facebook for more information, pictures and promotions. 

Degustabox have kindly given me a NEW discount code for all of my beautiful readers, all you have to do is pop BLDEG15 into the promotional code box and you'll receive a whopping £6.00 discount when registering. And don't worry beaut's, theres no commitments with Degustabox meaning you can cancel your subscription free of charge before the 10th of any month, but I mean why would you cancel monthly surprise treats ha ha!

What do you think of the Degustabox concept beaut's?? I'd love to know your thoughts.

Valentines Themed Wishlist! ♥

Hey beaut's!

Valentines Day is fast approaching so today I thought I would do a cheeky Valentines themed wishlist since the beauty world have so many cute things at the moment! Lush have quite a few Valentines goodies that I'm after this year including their 'The Kiss' lip scrub and lip balm and not forgetting their 'Lots of Love' Gift Set which contains every bath bomb that I'm after at the moment such as the Unicorn Horn, Lover Lamp, Tisty Tosty plus loads more. Yankee Candle have also got into the Valentines mood and released a cute gift set with five floral scented votives inside. Next can we all appreciate how blooming cute that Nails Inc nail polish is, it's a clear polish containing tiny red love hearts, ohhh I need it in my life so bad! Too Faced is always a brand that I'm lusting after and their new Chocolate Bons Bons Eyeshadow palette doesn't disappoint and I'm STILL lusting after their Bette Than Sex Mascara, I know, I know, I seriously need to treat myself to that bad boy soon ha ha.
Valentines Themed Wishlist!

Getting My Instagram Pictures Printed!

Hey beaut's!

You might already know if you follow me on Instagram that I'm a little addicted to that app, I tend to photograph anything and everything from lifestyle pictures to makeup pictures and obviously theres a cheeky selfie now and again to he he, I just love capturing little memories or moments that I can look back on in the future.

I've wanted to print some of my Instagram pictures off for a while as sometimes it seems silly having all the little memories stuck on your phone so I decided to take the plunge and order some. I searched the Internet to find the best site to use, a few years ago I did actually get some Instagram prints done on a website that I cant even remember the name of that were bad quality and quite pricey and in the end I found a website called polargram this time around.
 On the polargram site theres lots of different options for you to chose from as to how you want your photo's to be printed, you can have posters, frames, canvases, button magnets, fridge magnets, photo booth style strips and your classic squares which is what I opted for this time around. The square prints come in sets of 12, 24 or 48 and are printed on glossy card, I went for 12 this time because really I was just testing the website out and seeing what the quality was like and I have so say I'm super impressed. The 12 I got cost me just £5.95 which I think is super affordable and they came in literally 2 days even though the website aims to deliver all orders within 3-10 working days, I even got a maoam sweet in my box too which was a nice little surprise he he.
I'm completely chuffed with my photo's and I'm definitely going to order some more because I'm so happy with the entire experience, I'm now deciding whether to get a big pin board to put these photos on or search for some nice photo frames to put them in. So if your a little addicted to Instagram like I am you should definitely check out the polargram website, I'd highly recommend it.
