Right now, I\u2019m dead tired. I’ve had a long day at work then a long bus journey back to college for the evening and now I’m home, finally! Although, I will only sleep for 5 hours and the same thing again tomorrow. I\u2019m missing my lovlie blog and especially you my lovlie readers.<\/p>\n

But I had to write about something today, 2 things actually. They are not recipes; next week maybe!<\/p>\n

Ok, firstly a big thank you to sweet Shelly from Shellyfish<\/a> who sent me the cutest handmade gifts ever and some really adorable vegan chocolate! I say adorable because I haven\u2019t opened them yet to take a bite, they’re too nicely wrapped and tied together!<\/p>\n

I received the package last week on Monday, and what could possibly be the best way to start a Monday! All are handmade by Shel, a pin cushion, a little heart, a card (with embroidered details on it!!), a cute little pouch
\nand the chocolates!! The pin cushion made me want to go back to some sewing again. It\u2019s been a long time since I’ve sewn anything; I need to get myself a sewing machine. A birthday present maybe, in a month, Boyfriendlovlie? (hahaha!)<\/p>\n

Second thing is I’ve said Yes To Carrots! I happened to come across the Yes To Carrots range of products in Boots pharmacy<\/a> about a month ago. At that time I was running low on moisturizer and was looking for a new one. Vegan moisturizers are not that easy to find over here and most of the time they are quite expensive. All the Yes To Carrots product range is paraben free and contains only natural ingredients. I wrote to them to confirm this and the reply was:<\/p>\n

\u201cThanks for writing!
\nOur products do not contain any animal products, other than honey & beeswax which are found in select products. Our products are also endorsed as cruelty free by PETA.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Yes-to-Carrots\" <\/picture><\/p>\n

The Moisturizing Day Cream<\/a> does not contain any honey or beeswax, so woohoo, vegan! I’ve been using it for more than a month now and I don\u2019t think I\u2019d be looking for a new vegan moisturizer anytime soon! I’ve found my favourite, great on the skin and very reasonably priced. It smells lovely and I love it!<\/p>\n

I haven\u2019t tried other products in this range yet but I will definitely try their shampoo and conditioner soon.<\/p>\n

And if you\u2019d like to know: Yes To Carrots is intended for those with Dry to Normal skin, but I’ve also seen two other lines – Yes To Cucumbers and Yes To Tomatoes which are aimed at those with Normal to Sensitive skin (Cucumbers), and those with Oily\/Combination skin (Tomatoes). More info on their website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve seen these products at a few other pharmacies over here in Dublin and I am sure they\u2019d be easily available in the UK.<\/p>\n

Now I really need to get some sleep!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
