Sunday Make Up Shake Up #9

This Bank holiday couldn't have come at a better time - it seems that everyone's a bit burnt out and in need of some sunshine and relaxation.

With that in mind, I've picked bits this week that welcome the summer and add some light to my make up.

 Face: - 

- Seventeen PhotoFlawless Primer

- Benefit Your Bluffing

- Benefit It Stick

- Maybelline SuperStay 24hr Foundation

- Mac Medium Deep (Contour)

- Benefit Coralista

- Benefit Girl Meets Pearl highlighter

Eyes: - 

- Benefit Big Beautiful Eyes

- Benefit Bad Gal Mascara

- Clinique High Impact Mascara

- Benefit Lemon Aid

- Benefit Browzing

I realise its a very Benefit heavy week, but I have a lot of Benefit products so it is inevitable sometimes! I'm trying to sort out my skin and get it looking better but these go some way in making it look better.

What have you been using this week? What plans have you got for your Bank Holiday Monday? xx

Wobble-Less Wednesday - The Power of Protein

Hands up if you like milk shake? What about a shake that helps aid recovery as well as supporting weightloss and promoting lean muscle development?!

Protein shakes are becoming a staple in most people's gym routines, I adore getting home and having an ice cold shake! I used to buy Maxitone but its just so damn expensive (£25 for 14 servings!), plus you only get the choice of 3 flavours, so I went on the hunt for more choice at a lower price.

The Protein Works have produced what I need! They have a range of different products, from shakes to pre-workout supplements and everything in between. I picked up the Diet Whey protein as it contains caffeine & green tea as well as a huge chunk of protein.

The Diet way comes in 8 flavours, currently I have the strawberrys'n cream flavour which is really yummy. I picked up the 1kg bag, which comes with a scoop to help measure out.

The packaging is good as its a ziplock bag so doesn't take up the space of a tub, but it keeps it fresh for ages.

I mix 1 scoop (it advises 2 but I find it a tad chalky) with 350ml of skimmed or 1% milk and shake until smooth. It tastes really good, plus I'm getting a good dose of calcium as well.

I paid £19.99 for 1kg, which is good because that's 18 serving if you do the two scoops, but one scoop stretches it out further! I've seen great result since starting this 4 weeks ago, my recovery time is shorter, I notice more definition on my things and lower legs plus it tastes really good.

If you fancy giving this, or the other flavours a try then head over to The Protein Works - when you register use my referral code  -  SM6476 to get a free 250g bag when you spend £10.

For now I'm going to go and mix a shake - need to or I can't walk! Do you use a protein shake? What's your favourite flavour?
