Love Irish: Pixy Natural

I'm all about supporting Irish businesses, one such business I have developed a huge grĂ¡ for is Pixy Natural
Pixy is a pure and natural beauty product range that features gorgeous bath and body products made with lots of lovely ingredients including Shea Butter, Cocoa Butter, Vitamin E oil and lots more. Pixy are creative in their products including a gorgeous Bath Oil 

I have quite a collection of Pixy including the above Bath Oil aswell as their Cleansing Mud, Bath Bombs and Cellulite Body Oil. Each time I get a Pixy lovely, I am really impressed with the scent and how well the products work. Another thing I  love is that their prices are pocket friendly and how they are always coming out with new lovelies to treat their customers with.
If you haven't checked Pixy out, I highly recommend that you do, they can be found at Pixy.ie along with Facebook and Twitter. Delivery within Ireland is free when you spend €10 and takes 3-5 working days.

Optibac Daily Immunity

Little bit of a different post today in my return to blogging. I recently returned to work by getting a job in a pharmacy. The one thing I love about it is that you get to find out loads of interesting things.
This is especially true when it comes to Probiotics. Word on the streets is that everyone should be taking a probiotic for their well being. You can get probiotics in yoghurt but the yoghurts can be full of sugar.
 
Probiotics work in your gut to help maintain immunity as up to two thirds of your immunity is managed in your gut. A healthy balance of friendly bacteria hinders bad bacteria and enables friendly bacteria to multiply and exclude the baddies.Jumping on the bandwagon,I decided to start taking Optibac Daily Immunity Probiotics to boost my immune system.
 
Daily Immunity is ideal for those of us with a hectic lifestyle. This probiotic also includes a range of antioxidants including Vitamin C,Green Tea extract and Grape Seed Extract.
You take one tablet a day with food. I try to take it with breakfast so it starts working first thing. In the few weeks I have been taking these my energy levels have shot up and when I had the vomitting bug, I definitely think these helped.
 
Daily Immunity retails at €13.85 and is available on Optibacs website aswell as in pharmacies and health food stores nationwide. They also have probiotics for travelling abroad, while on antibiotics, daily well being, regularity, bowel calm, for wind and even one for children (which I will be reviewing soon)
