A Sprinkling of Thoughts

Mango & Passion Fruit Blue Skies Ice Cream Review

Blue Skies Vegan Ice Cream ReviewMy favourite type of pudding has to be ice cream, I think it’s definitely my weakness. I’ve even been known to be an ice cream before dinner kind of person, why would you want to be too full up for ice cream??

But surprisingly, the amount of ice cream I can have is pretty limited. A lot of ice creams are bulked out with wheat (great!), or have the whole ‘may contain traces…’ written on the back; meaning as a coeliac, you have to steer clear. And honestly, the gluten free ice-cream market is fairly small. Not that there’s not a lot of variety; it’s just that most of the free from options are not very nice.

Waitrose FreeFrom Sliced Seeded Cob Bread Review

Waitrose GF Bread ReviewI once read that if you’re buying gluten free food then you should aim to buy the one that has as little ingredients as possible; with 6 or less being the ideal number. But when you look at gluten free bread, you’ll be lucky if you find one that doesn’t have about 20 ingredients, is pumped full of rice and normally contains some form of molasses or another strange addition.

Herbal Essences Cucumber and Green Tea Shampoo & Conditioner Review

Herbal Essences Bio-Renew ReviewI know, I know I’ve said it before. But this truly is the BEST shampoo and conditioner that I have ever used. Herbal Essence Cucumber and Green Tea shampoo and conditioner leaves your hair feeling soft, smooth, bouncy and undeniably clean. That may sound silly, but you know how sometimes you wash your hair and it still feels dirty? Not with this duo.

Nivea Creme Review

Nivea Creme & Lotion Review - Cupful of SprinklesWinter is not really a good time for me. Constantly competing with the elements and central heating leaves my skin dry and feeling quite sore. I find it so hard to keep my skin moisturised and a long time ago gave up altogether on ever having flake free skin during the colder months. I think it’s important to mention that I have extremely dry, sensitive skin; and have fought with it my entire life. I’ve tried everything I could to tame it – I’ve had creams from the doctor, covered myself in coconut oil, tried the thickest body creams I could find and have even resorted to creaming 3-4 times a day.

I remember skin flying around the room and white flakes coating the inside of my clothes. To say that it’s been a constant fight is an understatement! But this year is different. I’ve finally found something that leaves my skin feeling and looking soft, and – for the first time – completely flake free!
