My new 'forever' products

I have found some products that I will be using forever that's for sure, thanks to Forever Living Aloe Vera products. 

There are so many products from the range that I love but I'm just going to sum up my ultimate faves or we'll be here all day. 

1) I am obsessed with the aloe drinking gel! The amout of energy it gives me is amazing, I feel healthier inside and out. Helps me have healthy skin, hair, nails and also helps to cleanse my system to keep weight off. 

2) Clean 9- this is a weightloss pack with all natural ingredients in that you follow for 9 days. I love this pack! I lost 8 lbs and 10 inches in just 9 days! 



3) Aloe whitening tooth gel- my teeth are sparkling white from using this product! 

4) Forever aloe scrub- I use this all over my body and my face and it literally gets rid of my rare breakouts overnight and a smooth complexion all over. Gentle enough to use every day too!


5) Alluring eyes- I have always had a bit of trouble with bags under my eyes, no matter how much sleep I've had- this product is amazing and has lessened the appearance of my bags just from applying it in the morning and before bed. Love!! 


You must give these products a go- they are all natural with aloe vera being their key ingredient, perfect for sensitive skin too. 

I do sell these products myself as I am absolutely passionate about them! They are also not tested on animals. Amazing. Get in touch if you want to try anything: saffy_13@hotmail.com

Brits 2014- Best and worst dressed

As we all know it was The Brits last night and the stars came out in their droves to make a statement on the red carpet. 

In my opinion, I didn't see many outfits which made me think- 'wow I love that', it was more 'hmm that's strange!'. But don't get me wrong there were some beauties, including BeyoncĂ© of course- not that she really counts! 

Best dressed: 

Worst dressed: 

(^^^^^^^ BEYOND awful!!^^^^^^^^)


I am undecided on how I feel about Fearne Cotton's dress. In some positions and lights it looks great, in others it almost reflects Kylie's bin bag above. 
So I am putting this in an'undecided' section, as I think it really suits her personal style but on anyone else just wouldn't work! 

What do you guys think? 

There's none I particularly love except for BeyoncĂ© & also the second pic- the pink number: stunning!!

Oversized coat trend

Following my oversized coat blog about Kimmie K... I finally managed to track down a beautiful one!! 

I searched shopstyle, asos, Zara etc & finally found my coat on River Island. It comes in lots of different colours but I went for the light beige colour as I felt it was more spring summer, although the dark beige is lovely too.... The pastel colours are also beautiful but I felt the light beige was more wearable. 

Here it is: 

It only cost me £80 & I've not had it off since it arrived! 

Apologies for the poor photography, it was a quick pic on my way out to work. I will post a new blog when I have gathered some pics of me wearing it in different styles to show how it can be changed up. 

On the above pics, I wore it for work with some dogs tooth leggings and a black blouse. It made me feel so confident and it's so comfortable and versatile. 

I would definitely recommend this style & this coat in particular.

Fur- would you buy?

Hi everyone, 

As London Fashion Week draws to a close it has occurred to me that fur is sadly back in a big way! A number of fashion houses have had look upon look containing real fur across all of the fashion weeks this year. 

Is this not completely vile?! Not only is it cruel and unnecessary but it also looks hideous. 


Fashion houses such as Stella McCartney refuse to include fur in their looks, there are loads of faux fur options out there that look similar & just as warm- just cruelty free & less vulgar! 

I can't believe that people are thinking it is ok again, we are going back to the dark ages & there's no excuse... There is plenty of evidence of the fur industry out there these days & I cannot believe it is still allowed to continue. 

So would you wear real fur? Sadly, with some celebrities wearing it regularly I feel that it is going to desentisise younger generations into thinking it's ok. 

Please dont wear fur!! Lady GaGa looks ridiculous and poor animals have suffered just so she can make a 'fashion' statement. 

We need to stop this!! 

Oh and p.s I am LOVING Khloe Kardashian for this- well said!

Major style crushing

Hey guys, 

I am LOVING Kimmie K's style these days even more than normal! 
I am loving the long camel coat styles & the ones that are in different colours. I think these pieces are so versatile... Can be dressed up/down, worn for work... With jeans/skirts/dresses. I am in love! 

Which is your favourite look? I prefer the black & the beige colours. Going to have to buy one! 

Another of Kim's recent signature looks that I am loving is the pencil skirt and crop top combo! 

Kim has had a lot of criticism recently for having the same old skirt/top combo everyday, but I think the look really suits her and who can blame her for wanting to show off her amazing new figure?! 

I say kudos Kimmie K! You are looking fab & fur free ;) love your style that way. 

Oh and loving the back to brunette look too, which do you prefer?

Monsoon

Hello everyone, 

Apologies I have not posted for a while! I'm back! :-) unfortunately it's not the most positive of posts but I need to share it with you. 

So just before Christmas I bought a cardigan from monsoon, £49.50 and I loved it. I came to wash it before my first wear and in looking at the care label I discovered it was made with Angora rabbit hair! I was horrified as PETA had only exposed the angora rabbit hair industry in December (google angora rabbit hair PETA) and you can read all about it. But in short- the rabbits are not kept in good conditions and are painfully plucked of their gorgeous hair for the fashion industry!! 

So... I called monsoon to return the item and get a refund which they agreed to. Upon returning it to a store, I was told they were only able to return the amount of the item at the current sale price as it had gone into the January sales. Unfair as I hadn't even bought it in the sale! To make it even worse they gave it to me on a gift card rather than cash! 

So I am less than pleased with the service and monsoon have reassured me they have withdrawn all of their angora products until they have researched into their suppliers more deeply- a move in the right direction! 

So please everyone check the label to ensure you are not buying a cruel product! I was shocked that monsoon would even stock fur but they do! 

I hope everyone has had a fabulous Christmas break and happy new year to you all, 

Saffron xoxo

Yet another benefit to Aloe Vera gel...

Hello everyone, 

Over the weekend, I went to a Halloween party & the morning after I was feeling a little hungover! So I googled "will Aloe Vera gel cute a hangover?" And I came across a blog which informed me that it would! 



As some of you probably know, I have my own business retailing Forever Living Aloe Vera products, so I already drink the gel daily. I was just unsure if it would make me feel worse or better! So after googling, I thought I would give it a go and my hangover literally went within half an hour, if that! I love finding new uses for my products & I generally love them! They are great. 

This is why it works to cure that hangover: 

It metabolises ingested alcohol, via oxidation in the liver, before it leaves the body. 

So the benefits of Aloe Vera gel: 

- Gets rid of those dreaded hangover symptoms 

- Aloe vera converts ingested alcohol into un harmful substances in aid for proper and fast digestion

- Eliminates dehydration and therefore dry mouth symptoms and headaches

- Relaxes nerves & helps you to feel sober & calm

So now you know the product you need to cure that hangover next time you experience one. I can honestly say I was amazed & thrilled I could cure it! Only one product can do all this for you- Aloe Vera gel.

Thanks for reading,
Saffron xoxo
