Belvoir Botanicals - Botanical Drink

Looking around the drink aisle i spotted the Belvoir Botanicals sitting on the supermarket shelf. 
Not knowing about the brand i picked up the botanical drink to see what its about and what they offer.
In Belvoir Botanicals range there are four drinks to choose from, each having there own special niche that their drink will deliver. 
The four choices are:
Skin Support, Refresh, Immune Support and Natural Energy. 
I think the range appeals to every consumer by offering the great four topics a consumer would buy. We are all wanting to feel refreshed after a busy day and wanting our skin to be, the best it can be.

Each bottle has a colour coded label belonging to each one of the topics in the range, i decided to try the "Skin Support" which has a pink label and states mandarin and hibiscus on the front, below the main branding also states with added Goji Berry, Geranium and Vitamin C.
The back label states all the information and nutritional information if you want to know. 
The description on the back states:
"A natural, delicately floral blend of mandarin, Goji Berry, Hibiscus and Geranium with still water."
*Hibiscus contains skin-boosting alkaloids, anthocyanins and quercetin.
*Goji Berries contain carotenoids, known for their anti-ageing properties.
*Geraniums are full of flavonoids and antioxidants for a youthful appearance.
*We've added 15% of your reference intake of Vitamin C, which helps support normal collagen formation.
No added sugar, flavours, artificial sweeteners, colours or preservatives, BPA free bottle.
The Skin Support is a delight to the taste buds and tastes of a high luxury, must have juice drink. 
I put mine in the fridge as i like mine chilled.
Once opened you must refrigerate and consume within 3 days, but they taste so good that once out of the fridge, i drink mine on first opening!

I also picked up the "Refresh" as the description on the front caught my eye as it states "Cucumber and Mint." 
I don't think i have ever tried this combination before so the thought of trying it was the deciding vote to buy it. Also the blue label bottle states with added Milk Thistle, Dandelion and Vitamin C.
The description on the back states:
"Packed with botanical ingredients traditionally used to help you refresh and revitalise."
*The refreshing juice of cucumber is often used for natural hydration.
*Milk Thistle is traditionally used for detox and cleansing.
*Dandelion contains antioxidants commonly used for its liver-cleansing properties.
*And we've added 15% of your reference intake of antioxidant Vitamin C.
The Refresh, is a drink my taste buds have never experienced before, but in a good way! You taste this minty-cool non-acidic juice drink that has a lovely natural taste, that really is highly refreshing. 

Both flavours are a delight to taste and i will for sure, pick up the immune support and natural energy to experience their unique ingredients, i'm sure they will taste just as good! Head on over to Belvoir Botanicals to discover more about their range. X Neil.

The scent of this oil is enchanting with citrus which helps lift your spirit but calms your mind.
When oil is applied onto your skin you will notice this oil has no colour, but feels luxurious when applied to skin and
is easily absorbed. This oil will not leave a greasy feeling to your skin nor any residue.
A multi-tasker this oil is, as can be applied over products to help those products penetrate deeper into your skin or you

and moisture to your skin especially in the winter months when your skin is dehydrated and stressed from central heating and weather

The gel is of medium consistency but easily disperses when applied to your skin.
Glides over skin really easy and brings a comfort feeling when absorbing into skin.
I massage this in circular motions all over cleansed skin and leave to dry fully. You can apply a serum before this product and a
moisturiser over this rose gel if your skin is lacking moisture and your wanting an emergency hydration boost.
Using with other Sinivalia products as they work in conjunction with each other to give you flawless skin with added benefits.
The rose gel left my skin smooth, soft and hydrated with a matte effect to my skin and improved skin tone.
My skin did not break out whilst using this product.

If your looking for a face cream that can be used day and night then look no further.
Sinivalia face cream arrives in a 150ml white tub with screw off lid.
The label on the front describes this as a non-greasy, silky moisturiser for fresher, younger looking skin.
This paraben free with naturally derived ingredients, smells absolutely luxurious with a natural scent that will have you smelling the pot every time you take the lid off.
The cream itself is white and of a thick consistency that soon disperses when applied to skin.
It glides over skin with ease which makes applying to skin really easy and comfortable.
Allow to be fully absorbed before applying any other products which usually takes under a minute.
Your skin is left smooth and soft and has a refreshed appearance giving the effect you have had a restful nights sleep.
You can use this in the morning on thoroughly cleansed skin and can be used as a night cream when skin is at its most regenerated state, repairing skin cells.
This cream did make my skin feel soft and felt moisturised through out the day. Also at night this makes a great cream to reach
for, knowing you are using natural derived ingredients to give your skin that extra boost and tender loving care it deserves.
This cream did not break me out. For the price and small amount of product you get with other brands, this face cream will
save you money with amount of product you get and will last you quite sometime as a little goes a long way.
If you are looking for a cream that will refresh skin tone, add moisture and have anti-ageing benefits, then this is the cream to choose!

A little of each product will glide over you skin with ease and i have always reached for these products to nourish and protect my skin.

Dry Body Brushing.

Achieving smooth soft skin as well as many other health benefits dry body brushing can help you with, the best thing is its easy to do!
Brushing your dry body before a bath or shower preferably in the morning will be an easy routine u can follow.
Start at your feet and always brush towards your heart using either small circular motions or long even strokes, both methods work well so its whatever one suits you best and you find the easiest.
Continue to brush all the way up your legs then over your abdomen, buttocks and back.
When reaching your arms, begin at your fingers and work your way up the arms, then brush your shoulders and chest down towards your heart.
Never use hard pressure with the brush around sensitive areas but u can change the pressure around areas like your feet as these are less sensitive.

Dry body brushing does have numerous health benefits and these are:
Lymphatic system:
In your body the lymphatic system is responsible for eliminating cellular waste products. Hundreds of miles of lymphatic tubules allow waste to be collected from your tissues and transported to your blood for elimination, This is referred to as lymphatic drainage.
Exfoliation:
Dry body brushing effectively removes dry dead skin and many benefits can be felt and seen when this method has been achieved. Soft smooth skin with a more healthy appearance.
Increase Circulation:
Dry body brushing increases circulation to your skin which then encourages elimination of metabolic waste.
Stress Relief:
Many users report that when they are dry body brushing they feel invigorated, because it feels so good. Likening it to a light massage that can reduce muscle tension, calm your mind and relieve stress.

You don't have to spend a fortune when purchasing a dry body brush. I would suggest buying one that does come with a handle, so you will be able to reach your back area. Start off with less pressure to begin with so you get used to the bristles of the brush, which gives you that sensation on your skin and body from the bristles.
Avoid brushing anywhere near broken skin or skin that is cut or wounded or that might have an infection. Just remember dry body brushing should be an enjoyable experience and not like you are taking a scouring pad to your skin. Brush, relax and enjoy! X Neil.

August Multiroom WiFi Speakers - Discount Speakers

Any room your wanting to create an atmosphere in requires some sort of speakers to either enjoy listening to your favourite music or radio station.
Portable speakers have become popular with their added benefit of being just that "portable" by the speaker not being fixated to just one space, thanks to the leads we all used on old speakers back in the day.
Using bluetooth from your own phone to connect to a bluetooth enabled speaker was not only easy to do, but was also a quick fix for the user to enjoy their music playlist in seconds.
Technology is always evolving and it was only a matter of time before speakers evolved, bringing the consumer something new and different whilst also introducing a new shiny speaker in your home. 
August Multiroom WiFi Speakers offer the user a whole range of options on what these speakers can do for the listener. 
The options are:
Multiroom WiFi Speaker for Android And Apple Devices.
Bluetooth NFC Connectivity For Non WiFi Devices.
Audio-In Socket For Non Bluetooth Devices.
Integrated USB Port - Model WS300G.
Integrated Micro SD Card Reader - Model WS150G.
Long Life Built-In Rechargeable Batteries.

Unboxing both models which are the WS300G (The largest of the two) and the WS150G (The smallest) the speakers are protected well in the box packaging. You also receive a USB cable, Audio cable and a user manual.
It is suggested you charge the speaker fully before first use with the provided USB cable to a powered USB port, a full charge can take up to 7 hours. 
Whilst the speaker is charging this will give you time to download the App "Aug Alink" either from Google Play if you own an android device or if you have an Iphone from the Apple Store. 
Enable WiFi on your device and connect to your network. Switch on the speaker and after only 20 seconds the speaker will enter WiFi mode with the lights of the speaker letting you know what stage the speaker is at.

Using the app on your chosen device, whether that would be a phone or tablet, you can now proceed to run the application and press "WiFi Setup Wizard/Add Device". The wizard will glide you through the setup stages with ease and if you want to add another device to the list like the other model speaker you can do this by repeating the steps, the setup wizard takes you through.
That is not all the speakers can do, other benefits are:
You can connect your phone or tablet directly to the speakers WiFi network which then will turn your speaker into a router.
Bluetooth Connection, by enabling Bluetooth on your source device, you then proceed to scan for devices and select WS150 or WS300 to connect and once paired, the status LED light of the speaker will turn blue.
NFC Connection, Enable Bluetooth and NFC on your device and make sure the speaker is in bluetooth mode. Touch the NFC area of your source device against the NFC area of the speaker and they will automatically be paired together.
Multi and Solo Mode (WiFi Connection only).
Solo mode enables multiple speakers connected to the same network to play different music individually whilst Multi mode enables a group of speakers to play the same music, this option can be used to separate left and right channels between speakers.
The August Multiroom WiFi Speakers are by default in solo mode whilst the WS300 can play music from an USB stick the WS150 can play music from an inserted SD card. Another option is by using the provided audio cable you can connect your source device to the speaker.

Setting up the speakers is really easy and using the app to control the speakers gives the user many options in their control and at your finger tips. You can set up the speakers in one room or place in different rooms whilst enjoying the crystal clear sounds the speakers produce, at a touch of a button. Not only do these speakers look great they also don't take up much room, which is even better when your looking for available space in your home.
