Steve's Leaves salad bowls

Steve's Leaves are a very successful baby salad leaves brand situated in the UK.
Not only do they grow and provide high quality fresh produce but also continue to find and bring new baby salad leaves to the market for the customer.
Steve's Leaves are not only passionate about food but also the environment and nature, making them the only salad brand to be "certified" by the conservation grade, which in practise means 10% of their land is dedicated to creating habitats for wildlife and boosting biodiversity. This is achieved by following a scientifically validated set of protocols, specific to each site to protect and enhance the wildlife and biodiversity. 
The Steve's "Leaves" consists of:
*Baby Watercress, Wild Red Rocket, Pea Shoots,
*Baby Spinach, Baby Red Cos, Baby Chard, Mizuna,
*Baby Green Batavia, Fennel Tops and Chives.
The "Range" which continually grows to explore new flavours:
*Confetti Coriander with Mild Leaves.
*Red Frilly Mustard with Tender Leaves.
*Fennel Tops and Sweet Leaves.
*Pea Shoots and Baby Leaves.
*Baby Watercress and Little leaves.
Steve's Leaves salad leaves are grown outside all year round in natural sunlight and are grown slowly and naturally and are only washed in spring water.
You can buy each different kind of product either in a 60g salad bag or for the people who want to eat healthier, but don't have the time to prepare a meal, the salad bowls are the perfect choice to pick!
I was lucky enough to be sent two salad bowls which look so appetising and appealing before even opening. 
Perfect Ploughman's:
The Perfect Ploughman's bowl combines the great taste of Red Frilly Mustard, Green Batavia, Crimson Chard and Mizuna leaves with cheddar chunks, pearl onions, mini gherkins and rustic crackers with a delicious pickle dressing. This salad bowl is the perfect ploughman's meal that can be enjoyed at anytime of the day! The salad bowl can serve 1-2 people but i warn you, it tastes that great you will not want to share with anyone!
Terrific Thai Salad:
The Terrific Thai Salad combines Pea Shoots, Baby Spinach, Red Chard and Confetti Coriander with added Coconut shavings, Dried Mango Pieces, Carrot Sticks with a Lemongrass and chilli dressing.
Wow, this certainly is a mouth watering, taste bud sensation salad bowl. I really liked all the flavourings complementing each other and before i knew it, it had all gone! Oops! 
Each salad bowl is available from Waitrose at the price of £2.39, which is great value, for what produce, you get inside. The salad bowls are great to take to work, enjoy at a picnic or eat at any meal time.

Snoreeze Oral Strips

Snoring can effect either your own sleep pattern or disturb your partners, making any bedtime sleep routine a nightmare.
Snoring is caused by the vibration of the soft tissue in your head and neck as you breathe in.
When asleep the airways narrow and relax in your head and neck which is then thought that this narrowing increases the speed you breathe out which then changes air pressure in your airways. 
The cause of these changes make the soft tissue vibrate by sucking the sides of the airways in.
Snoring can also occur when your suffering from colds or enlarged tonsils that result in partially blocked airways.
Evidence has shown that snoring left untreated can result in snoring getting worse over time and can result in damage to blood vessels that supply muscles in the head and neck to become weaker.
The vibrations from snoring weaken these muscles which result in their ability to keep your airway open.
Factors that can play a role to increase your risk:

Obesity: If you have a large amount of fat around your neck and have a neck circumference of more than 43cm (17 (inches) usually snore a lot.

Alcohol: Alcohol relaxes your muscles when you sleep, which increases the narrowing of your airways.

Sedatives/Antidepressants: In some people, these medications can have similar effect to alcohol on the muscles.

Smoking: Tobacco smoke can cause your airways to become inflamed, which causes greater narrowing of the airways.

Allergic Rhinitis/Allergies:
The inside of your nose becomes swollen and inflamed as a result of an allergic reaction to the substances such as dust or pollen.

There is no guaranteed cure for snoring but Snoreeze offer many different products to relieve symptoms, to help you gain a more peaceful night sleep.
Look at the chart below to help you decide which Snoreeze treatment would benefit you.
The Snoreeze Oral Strip targets the main cause of snoring and can provide effective relief for up to eight hours! The dual action, time-based formula lubricates and tones the soft tissues at the back of the throat to provide effective relief.
The Ingredients:
Pectin (from apples), Aqua, Glycerin, Peppermint Oil,
Cellulose, Sorbitan stearate, Polysorbate 60, 
Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), 
Menthol (from peppermint), Aspartame**, 
Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Saccharin, Acesulfame K,
Hyaluronic Acid, Guar Gum, Citric Acid, Blue FCF.
Vegetal Origin. **A source of Phenylalanine.
The oral strip is inside a sealed pouch with clear and easy directions to follow on the back. You take the oral strip out of its packaging and place one strip onto the root of your mouth.
It is recommended for best results do not eat or drink after applying the strips in your mouth.
I was really surprised on how quickly these dissolve in your mouth and leave a pleasant minty flavor, which is great when using these just before your sleep time.
In the Snoreeze Oral Strips pack you receive 14 strips which is a 2 week course.
The strips are a quick and convenient treatment to use at night time and i have seen and felt a huge improvement when using these. I know when i have been snoring as i have woken myself up on rare occasions and also my throat has felt sore in the morning. 
It is noted in the leaflet provided with the strips that the Snoreeze Oral Strips are not a cure for sleep apnoea (a related medical condition). You may be suffering from sleep apnoea if you stop breathing during sleep, wake-up tired or fall asleep easily during the day. It is recommended that you consult your doctor. Always read the leaflet before taking any product. 
Thanks to Snoreeze for sending me their product to blog about!

Trust Underarm Deodorant

Trust underarm deodorant is a scientifically proved and tested product that can eliminate underarm odour from one single application.
Just from one application this aluminium free deodorant safe guards you for up to 3 to 6 days, great if you lead a busy lifestyle and forget to apply first thing in the morning, it can happen!
The highly effective deodorant does not stop sweating but does prevent odour, which is great for the active user who rides their bike to work or you are at the gym. Some deodorants claim to provide protection but all they do is mask the odour and fail when you are active or there is a hot climate. You are wanting a product that gives you confidence in any situation, all day. Trust underarm deodorant treats the bacteria causing the odour, leaving the user with confidence and protection for days!
No harsh chemicals and being skin friendly (non irritating) this natural and herbal ingredient deodorant can be used by everyone aged 4 and above, great for the whole family.
Ingredients:
Petrolatum, Zinc Oxide, Paraffinum Liquidum,
Lanolin Alcohol, Zea Mays Starch, Allantoin, Talc,
Ethylhexylglycerin, Polyglyceryl-3 Caprylate,
Tricontanyl PVP, Silica, Isopropyl Myristate, 
Tocopheryl Acetate, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Powder,
Maltodextrin, Cera Alba, Limonene, Retinyl Palmitate,
Disodium EDTA, Sodium Gluconate, Steric Acid, Triclocarban,

Lavandula Angustifolia Oil, Linalool,

The Directions State:
Wash underarms and leave to dry. 
Spread trust underarm deodorant to the underarm area before bedtime.
The trust underarm deodorant is easy to access with a twist off blue cap that gives u instant access to the product. I did have a sniff of the product before applying and the scent smells of a non offensive citrus/lemon, great!
When you dip your finger into the pot, swirl your finger around and the white creamy product will then be on your finger, ready to apply to your underarms. 
I love how little of this product covered the underarm area and after application you really don't know the product is working its magic as the area feels comfortable with that slight scent. Even after application this will not stain clothes and can actually reduce offensive smells from your clothes efficiently. Trust underarm still protects you from odour after showering and swimming and
one jar of trust can last you up to or over 2 months, making this underarm product a cost effective product to use.
The travel friendly pot is easy to carry with you in your work or gym bag making this product a must have product, that actually works for odour free underarms!
