Tanning

This summer I haven't really had any holiday due to saving all my annual leave for Europe in July (will all be worth it in the end), So I have been using fake tan more regularly then I normally would.
The gorgeous girls from TigerMist have sent me their new tanning product that I am beyond impressed with it! It's green based too so it doesn't come up orange at all. The best thing about moose is the convenience of no mess, but take note not to forget your gloves!

3 simple steps
1- Exfoliate
2- Moisturize
3- Apply tan with gloves
Let it set for 6 hours min then have a body wash, then moisturize again :)

Oatmeal

Oats have one of the lowest GIs of all grains and a single serve each day provides you with a substantial amount of fiber. Fiber helps reduce blood cholesterol levels and keeps you feeling fuller for longer. Eating oats in the morning will help stabilize your blood sugar levels throughout the day and prevent those morning/afternoon crashes. The less processed the oats are, the more fiber they contain, so i recommend sticking to rolled oats. I eat oatmeal pretty much every day for breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and should never be missed!
