Prir Health Kick


Hello Everyone,

I hope you are all well & having a good week.
Cannot believe this week is a 4 day weekend & I am so happy about this! I feel like I need a bit of me time this weekend & take some time out for myself. 

If you follow me on instagram you might have noticed that recently, well 2 months ago I joined the gym. Which before I don't think I would have ever have done. I wanted to get myself more healthy, a more toned body & try to keep my mind active & away from any distractions.

Due to my recent health kick I have been trying to both eat & drink better. So I have been trying a health & beauty drink Prir.
Prir was created as a powerful vitamin beauty drink which gives you a great tasting drink & has great benefits. The drink is natural & contains vitamins, minerals & is low in sugar as it is all natural sweetness! All their drinks are guilt free with only 100 calories per bottle. Which for me is a great seller. 

In total there are 3 flavours which means there is something to suit everyone's taste & mood! Plus they are suitable for vegans.

It is a fab drink which is great to help keep you hydrated & is packed with all the nutrients you need. Plus they come in a recyclable glass bottle. 


I think it is not only important to look after your body but also your skin, hair & nails. Every bottle of Prir contains:

B2 - Which is great for helping to maintain healthy skin, hair & nails. It also helps reduce tiredness, maintain vision & helps with your energy.

Zinc - Which is great for your skin, hair & nails. It helps with your metabolism & reduce tiredness & fatigue

B3 - Again great for your skin, hair & nails but is also great for your metabolism, nervous system, bone & teeth.

Biotin - Great for yielding metabolism & nervous system.

Selenium - Great for helping to maintain healthy joints & normal thyroid function.

Prir comes in the flavours:

*Orange & Passionfruit
*Apricot & Elderflower
*Blackcurrant

I have to say they all taste so good but Blackcurrant has to be my favourite. Normally some healthy things do not taste good but these do taste good. I really am enjoying the drinks & how hydrated & more energised I feel after drinking them. So if you are looking for abit of a health kick that taste's good & is good for you, these are for you!

Take care

Time For Tea

Happy Saturday Everyone!

I hope you have all had a good weekend & your weekend is even better!
Even though this week has been a shorter week at work this week truly feels like it has gone on for like ever. Such a manic week it has definitely tested me you could say especially being full of cold. But hey the week is over with now, time to move on & think next week is a new week right? Well thats the way I now try to look at things. Put a positive spin on it!

I am a HUGE tea lover! I do not drink coffee one bit but tea it is like the best thing. Tea solves everything I truly believe that. Most kinds of tea I drink but Early Grey I have to say is my ultimate favourite. Some people cannot stand the stuff because they believe it is too perfume like tasting but I love it.But due to orders by my doctors I have had to cut down on the amount of caffeine intake I have. Which has been annoying but health is more important than anything right? So I now have to limit the amount of tea I drink. So I started recently trying different fruit or herbal teas simply because they are caffeine free. So I thought it might tell my brain it's drinking normal tea when I'm actually not. To begin with I will admit I wasn't really enjoying it but as time has gone & I have tried more & more flavours I do really like them. Okay it isn't the same as normal tea because you don't have milk & the tastes are nothing like the same but it is what is needed. I have found I enjoy the more fruit teas more so like Strawberry & Raspberry, Or Cranberry, Strawberry & Raspberry. I usually just buy them from my local supermarket. I buy the actual tea bag form but I have tried loose tea when in a cafe recently having a catch up with a friend. Suki' Tea in a berry blend & it was so nice & I found it more stronger tasting than the tea bag form. So I found myself wanting to try tea in a loose form.

I started to look for places to buy loose tea leaves from & come across Teagime which is a subscription box of different teas! I bet you haven't come across that before right? No I hadn't either so I was very excited of my find! Every two weeks they send you out 3 different teas to try. Which are ALL hand picked for you & your needs. 

You get 3 different types of tea one for each part of the day:

Morning: Kick starts your metabolism 
Afternoon: Help aid digestion 
Evening: Helps curb your cravings & is meant to help you sleep.



When you sign up for Teagime you fill out a questionnaire which they ask you about health related topics to ensure they send out tea's which will benefit your health & wellbeing. Which you do not get if you simply handpick your own tea from a shop. These are especially catered to you. Not only that but all the tea is fresh which is unlike supermarket teas where they are more dust.  
Not only that but the tea's can also help aid you to lose weight by helping burn fat, if that is what you are looking for. You do not
see instant results but thats the same as everything. 




The tea's you are sent are also based up on your flavour preferences, caffeine requirements, skin issues & menstrual cycles. You can leave out ingredients that you don't want. 

When my Teagime box arrived it was packed with the 3 teas best suited to my own preferences. I was set out:

Morning - Rose Champagne
This is a invigorating floral blend. It contains:
*Rose which cleanses the blood & organs
*Oolong which helps lifts your energy levels & enhance your mood
*Strawberry to help aid digestion & burn stored fat

Afternoon - Cocoa Cheer
This tea is to help you recharge through the afternoon, It contains:
*Cocoa Shells gives you that chocolate fix without actually having it. Also helps control Chronic fatigue & burn fat

Evening - The Light Fantastic 
This helps you become calm & cleansed before bed time. It is also supports  your immune & digestive system. It contains:
*Fennel which strengthens the kidneys & stomach
*Elderflower which guards against allergies
*Chamomile to help aid sleep



Also in the box comes two tea infusers. They are in the shape of a tea bag which I thought was so cute! I had been debating finding like a teapot or a cup with a tea infuser in it so I could get loose tea of my own but now I don't need to with this boxes from Teagime. The boxes come with instructions on how to use your tea infuser so how like to fill it up & things. Which I thought might be a little hard but it could not be easier!

All you simply do is:

*Remove the bottom cap of the tea infuser
*Fill it up with tea leaves but ensuring to leave enough room so the tea can infuse
*Put the bottom cap back on
*Place the tea infuser in your mug of hot water 
*Leave for 3-5 minutes to let the flavours start releasing

It is such a unique & great idea I think! Especially when you think of all the good things the tea's contain & how the ingredients are catered to you to help YOU with your own requirements. I will am looking forward to trying more of the boxes & their tea's!
