Product Rave: Liz Earle Eye Bright Soothing Eye Lotion

I had this product in my stash for a while before I actually used it. I found the name to be a little confusing..What was this actually for? A few times after a long day at uni or after a bit too much laptop time I'd soak a few cotton pads in the stuff and let that sit over closed eyes for a few minutes and that felt great, but I was sure there was a better use for the product. So I tried it as an eye make up remover. And that's when I really fell in love.

The scent is uber soothing as it's so herby and fresh and I'm not sure why, but this liquid always seems to be really cold, no matter where I keep it in the house, so it's super refreshing on the eyes. I just soak a cotton pad and leave it on my eye for a few seconds and that pretty much gets everything off. Another quick few swipes around the lashes and my eyes are totally clear.

What I especially love about this product is that it gets everything off without leaving an oil behind. My lids feel totally clean and I don't wake up with eyeliner or mascara still on my eyes in the morning!

The Recipe: Green Breakfast Smoothie

Hi guys!

Today I'm back with a recipe for one of my favourite things to have for breakfast; a smoothie. But not just any smoothie, a super healthy green smoothie. I tend to just grab anything that's in my fridge and it usually tastes pretty good, but this combination tasted extra good and it's super healthy, so I thought I'd share the recipe with you.

For this smoothie you will need:

Spinach

A banana

Some cherry tomatoes

Grapes (purple or green)

Blueberries

Celery

Half a lemon 

Half on apple

A splash of water

Chop up your celery, banana, apple and tomatoes and throw them in your blender/ Nutribullet (whatever your using to whizz up your smoothie). Then chuck in your grapes and blueberries. Grab a handful of spinach (or more or less, depending on what your prefer.) Then pour in the juice of half a lemon and add a splash of water. If you like you can also throw in some ice at this point for an extra cold smoothie. Blend everything together until it reaches the consistency you like, but bear in mind green smoothies tend to be on the thicker side. Pour into a glass and enjoy your breakfast!
