Borders Bakeshop Treat Box - Toblerone

-
 I just had to share a picture of these lovely treats that arrived today (I get them sent to work and actually went in on my day off to get them as I couldn't wait!)


Just look at the tastiness!

Borders Bakeshop is run by the lovely Gem Braithwaite, from Kelso near the Scottish borders. She has been baking up a storm for a few years now but took a break from baking last year when her second little girl was born. Gem did a few special occasion boxes for Halloween, Christmas, January Blues and Valentines and is now back to weekly bakes yay!

 I was first introduced to Borders Bakeshop by my sister Donna after she'd posted a picture on her Instagram, and after trying a box myself for the first time 2 years ago I was hooked! Her bakes taste incredible! Each week is a different theme. I don't buy a box every week but tend to buy if a flavour takes my fancy.....which has been each fortnight at the moment! The last box I got was Mint Oreo Overload and the one before Salted Caramel & Rolo - Loved it!
The theme this week was 'Swiss Dreaming Tobleroning'. Toblerone is one of my fiances favs so I just had to buy it - I'm nice and share my boxes with him every time.


Every box this week includes:

2 x Triple Toblerone Cookie Sticks: a brown sugar cookie filled with dark chocolate, white chocolate and Toblerone chunks.

2 x Chocolate Marshmallows: dipped in white chocolate finished off with Toblerone chunks and flaked almonds.

2 x Milk Chocolate Toblerone Fudge: A creamy milk chocolate Toblerone fudge, topped with a layer of white chocolate and Toblerone pieces.

2 x White Chocolate Frosted Toblerone Stuffed Brownies: A rich fudgy brownie stuffed with Toblerone chunks, topped with white chocolate ganache and a Toblerone chunk.

The boxes can be frozen or kept in the fridge for up to 3 days if you can resist them for that long!

Boxes go on sale every Saturday at 10am and cost £15.95 + £4 p&p which are sent Royal Mail 1st class. You need to be quick though as they sell out super fast!

Find her on Facebook HERE or Instagram HERE - Trust me when I say you will not be disappointed. As always they are delicious!

Look Fantastic Beauty Box - March Unboxing

-

It has been ages since I've bought a Look Fantastic Beauty Box but after seeing some spoiler pictures on Facebook I decided to use my glossy credits to get this months box. Normally the box cost £15 including postage, with my glossy credits it took the price down a little to £9.35. The box this month is has a lovely white and blue design on top with a pinky purple base, which I will be keeping and reusing. It also comes with a copy of the latest Elle Magazine. From Rituals is Cherry Blossom & Rice Milk Soothing Hand Balm  70ml (£9.50)- a lovely floral lotion made with Shea Butter and Organic Rice Milk, the lotion replenishes and rejuvenates hands. Rituals are always a welcome brand I enjoy getting in boxes. Eos Lip Balm  7g (£6.50) in Strawberry Sorbet - Not actually a brand I've used before, but a handy balm to have in the makeup bag. Probably not something I would take out and about with me as I find the shape awkward for travel, I prefer small stick balms. This ba

Great weather calls for great sun protection with Alteya Orgaincs

I'm loving the great weather we've been having so far this week....has summer finally arrived!? With temperatures up to 30 degrees in Scotland and soaring up to 38 in parts of England by Thursday, sun protection is a MUST if you are planning to leave your house even if all you do is sit in your garden. Really you should be using an SPF product daily regardless of the weather...yes even if its raining! As an outdoor worker (postwoman) a good SPF is top of my list all year round but especially at this time of year! Alteya Organics Whole Body Sunscreen * (£13.40 for 90ml) is enriched with emollient botanical butters and oils to hydrate the skin and protect against damaging UVA and UVB sun rays which cause sunburn and premature aging. So what is SPF and why do we need it? SPF or sun protection factor measures the level of protection a product will give you and how much longer it will take your skin to burn when wearing sunscreen vs not wearing sunscreen. Alteya's Whole

Sukin Blemish Control Kit

My skin is quite prone to spots and blemishes so I really wanted to find a product that would help to control breakouts and reduce the redness I have. I've used Sukin products before but never knew they had a blemish control range until recently. The  Sukin Blemish Control Kit * (£19.95) contains 4 products to help calm and clear the skin, three are 50ml and one is 15ml so decent sized samples, and handy for travelling with. Clearing Facial Wash purifies the skin while removing dirt and impurities with Quince and Pomegranate. Pore Perfecting Toner refines and refreshes the skin with Eucalyptus, Tea Tree and Mint. Spot Banishing Gel helps to fight breakouts with Willowherb, Salicylic Acid and Eculyptus, while the  Oil Free Moisturiser clarifies and balances the skin with Willowherb, Quince and Moringa. Willowherb is said to fight the causes of blemishes in just 30 minutes! And while I didn't see a huge improvement that quickly, I did notice a big difference withi
