Tricky treats...

Just some goodies I've spotted over the last few weeks on my travels that you might be tempted to pick up! I'm treating myself to a very large G&T and filling the neighbours kids with liquorice... I hate the stuff so I can have it here in the house and I am not even tempted to touch the stuff! ewwwww!

'Dessert' yoghurts from Müller

Yoghurts that are dressed up like desserts... loads of them out there to choose from but the new range from Müller Light Goodies is FABLISS! BUT my oh my are they causing a storm to PP them!  100g is 2PP but they are packaged as 107g BUT if you weight them, some of them aren't! So my tip... if you're an OCD freak like me... weigh them out... or just don't eat the last spoonful and you'll only have spent 2PP! I've used the toffee one to make a WW friendly banoffee dessert just for me! (recipe will follow! ridiculously simple!) ... I've included two of their other ranges that are out at the moment!

Müller Light Goodies - Smooth Toffee with milk choc balls - 3PP per 107g

'Tropical' Eton mess

So the holiday blues are settling in and with the GLORIOUS weather I had to keep the tropical momentum going... so Eton Mess with a tropical twist... made in minutes and SOOOOOO good! 


Whats in it?

1 Meringue nest - 1PP per person
1 scoop of Vanilla ice cream
    I've used Vanilla & Coconut Dairy Free from Nobo for 2PP 
    but you can use your fav ice cream and if you want to keep the 
    Propoints even lower try the Zero PP banana ice cream
    the original recipe is >>> HERE <<< 

ZERO HEROS
Tinned pineapple in juice (NOT IN SYRUP!)

A squeeeeeze of Coconut Choc Shot

    I've only used a drizzle but if you use more you can PP like this... 

1 tsp, 5g - 0PP

2 tsp 10g - 1PP 

3 tsp 15g - 1PP

4 tsp 20g - 2PP

Total ProPoints for the recipe - 3PP

Total ProPoints per portion - 3PP

How?

Set up your glass of choice, I've gone all hipster with this one... 

If you're not using fresh pineapple, drain your tinned and save the juice for a smoothie!

Pop it into your glass... 

Get your meringues... 

Layer them on top...  see what I mean by easy!

Top off with your ice cream, yoghurt etc... 

And a squeeze of Coconut Choc shot... et voila!

I squeezed my choc shot on top but if you wanna get all fancy pants... 

drizzle it down the sides before you start layering 

and you'll get some in every mouthful! 

A shot of rum wouldn't be a bad idea either! ahem... 

Enjoy! x

O! WOW from LV ESSENTIALS

Now I'm not a brush-a-holic like the real beauty bloggers... I've been given make up brushes as gifts and a lot of the time I'm looking at them wondering what they're for! I have a few chosen ones, I love my Eco Tools foundation brush and my Flawless foundation and shading brushes are my trusted old friends ... 

I also stick with my fingers, blending professionals after all these years... but I was asked to try the O! WOW brush by Cailyn and it ain't like the others gals... it's ridiculously soft, doesn't leave strikes and works with ALL the creams... BB, powder, liquid foundation... all of em... it's the perfect mix between the standard 'flat' foundation brush and the newer 'round' buffing brushes... The bristles are tightly packed so it feels like velvet when you run your fingers over them... I'm always dubious when products make massive claims but it really gives a flawless finish... I used it with my tinted moisturiser and it blended it perfectly... 

Next up... idefine liquid eyeliner... If your a wingtip gal at the weekends, or just for putting out the bins... this is brilliant... it's small but perfectly formed and so easy to control! You know what I mean! The pigment is dense and jet black... I mean JET black!! I'm all about the slick eyeliner in the summer with a brush of colour... so I'm looking forward to using this lots!

Last up the BB compact... This is the 'not-gonna-spill-in-your-bag-ever!' BB cream... it dispenses the right out with a press of a button... the coverage was good and the finish quite matt so you'll need to add a hint of high lighter to give you a bit of glow... but the compact itself is lovely, great little mirror and the way it dispenses means you're not going to be binning any of it...

LV ESSENTIALS is 100% Irish owned and operated, and growing its product list all the time... check them out online >>> HERE <<<

O! Wow Brush €29.99
