Raw Matcha Protein Balls

Good day everyone, here is something different and new for my blog and I am so excited to share this with you all.

Healthy living is something I feel strongly about. I'm not trying to claim that I live a one hundred percent healthy lifestyle but I do make the effort to eat clean most of the time. This recipe is the beginning of what I hope will be many more simple and healthy recipe posts on my blog.



There are food trends, that is clear. Protein balls of many kinds have been popping up on my Pinterest and Instagram feeds for a while now and it got me quite curious. Today I finally decided to make some  of my own protein balls.

I looked up a few different recipes and using the items I had on hand kind of created my own concoction. It turned out quite well and it was incredibly quick and simple to make.

New Product: Lush Cup O' Coffee Scrub

Coffee scrubs have been all the rage lately. There's something in coffee that makes the skin more bright and enhances circulation.  This means the skin is boosted and the appearance of cellulite can even be reduced, if used to those specific parts of the body (i.e. thighs, stomach, butt).

When I was perusing through Lush's website a few weeks back and noticed they had a new coffee scrub on the market, I was elated. I've been having a major Lush obsession lately and this product needed to be part of my ever-growing Lush collection.


At first, this scrub was only available online and I waited until it came out in stores as well. I wanted to smell and feel the product before deciding whether or not it was worth a try. Obviously, since I'm writing this post, I decided to purchase it.

Here's what I think of the scrub so far...

Dying Your Hair At Home : My Experience

Saving money is always a good idea.  That's why I decided to try dying my own hair at home. Buying a box dye from the drugstore costs about $10 and getting my hair done professionally costs north of $100.  I decided, it was time to try and save some money on something that isn't a vital need. 

This was big for me, my hair is very important to me, yes I realize how vain I sound, but it is. I like being blonde, I like having nice, natural looking highlights. When deciding to do my own hair at home, I opted for a root touch up strategy. I was only going to colour my roots and not touch the lengths.  That way, if the colouring went awry, I would only have a couple inches of disaster, instead of a full head of ugliness. 


Here's what happened...

Eyes To Kill : Favorite Mascaras of the Moment

When wearing a new beauty product, something you're excited about, the best feeling is when someone notices the change. An even more amazing feeling is when they compliment you on it.

I mention this because, as a rule, it's not too often that I get compliments on my makeup. I'm not saying I'm completely rubbish at it and it looks crap all the time.  I'm simply saying that it's something others don't tend to notice as easily as a new dress or shoes.
