Flora Blend Live Food Bars are a great healthy treat that are handy on the go or at home for improved digestion and nutrition!
The Flora Probiotics story started nearly 60 years ago when fourth generation baker Alan Meyer learnt the important role that good bacteria play in the production of real fermented bread. Traveling the world in his early twenties to perfect the art of baking, he saw how fermented foods were not only a fundamental part of traditional diets but also a vital way of promoting health and longevity. This led to a lifelong passion for health promoting foods, fermentation and acquiring knowledge about the microorganisms that produced them. Flora Probiotics products are naturally fermented probiotic superfood liquids, powders and bars and pet products. We select the finest ingredients available to make the Flora Probiotics range of products with a strong emphasis on organic ingredients. These products are made in Australia, using an exclusive fermentation process. This process ensures active, viable probiotic good bacteria and bio available nutrients..
Finally a tasty, yummy snack we dont have to feel guilty about! Most people
are so busying trying to fit so much into every day that we dont find the
time to give our bodies the nutrition it deserves.
* Flora Blend Bars give you a tasty, nutritious snack that fills you up,
helps to cut the sugar cravings and gives you a daily hit of natural
probiotics
* Processed using Flora Ferm. A natural, organic fermentation process that
prepares organic grains, greens and foods without destroying the natural
nutrients within.
* This can in turn increase the nutritional value of the finished food, add
active good bacteria to the digestive system and can also assist in making
the food easier to metabolize
* Only the best quality ingredients used offering a concentrated natural
boost and other health benefits including; Cranberries - a great source of
antioxidants and Vitamin C, Oats, which are high in protein and are great
sources of thiamine and vitamin B1 and many, many more * Ingredients:
cranberries, almond & almond paste, dates, rice, oak flakes, coconut, honey,
malt liquid, queen garnet plum, tumeric, maqui berry, bilberry extract,

Too easy!
Posted4 July 2013
Received my airfryer this morning, cooked in it tonight, couldnt wait!! I mixed 2 lamb cutlets in a little bit of oyster sauce, placed in my airfryer, 180 degrees for 12 minutes. Hubby said meat was tender and less fatty, we thoroughly enjoyed it. Was nice pouring out the fat from machine instead of having it in our bodies. Our son came over, spotted the airfryer and asked about it, gave him a taste of my lamb......well now he wants one too :) Maybe a birthday pressie for him. Would also be nice to have 2 machines for entertaining LOL X

Lysse Stretch Cotton Bootcut Jersey Pant
Slimming and flattering!
Lysse, pronounced Lis-say, is a twist on the French word meaning smooth. The US based brand was born from founder Beth Gold-Cohen facing a wardrobe dilemma; leggings were a wardrobe staple and the only ones she could find created a muffin top. So in 2009 she created her own instead with a high-waist control top, a clever idea to combine clothing with shapewear. They smooth and slim each womans unique shape, thanks to the revolutionary tummy control. Today Lysse has now become a global leader in comfortable, affordable, slimming shape wear. Encouraged by the immediate success of the first Lysse legging, Lysse has expanded into a range of styles including tops, camis, wraps, skirts, dressed, pants, and of course - leggings. The result is a truly amazing product greatly received from women of all sizes and ages, making it a must-have in every wardrobe.
Lysse have brought out a fabulous new design and shape in their
range of curve control garments, the Bootcut Jersey Pant. Not only will this
shape balance the proportion of your body and elongate your legs, the
amazing spandex inner panel over the tummy will flatten your middle for a smooth
finish. The blend of cotton and elastane through the legs means these leggings will sit firm
against your skin with plenty of stretch, while the cotton component allows
for a breathable finish while being oh so comfortable! The wonderful
four-way stretch fabric smoothes the lumps and bumps on your curves, allowing
you to wear the clinging garments you have been avoiding for years again!
Team with fabulous printed tunics for a pair of leggings you will not want
to take off! Available in Black, White, Espresso, Black/White, Charcoal and Mocha, through sizes S-3X.

Lysse would be great if you could make your products with a short, regular and long length.
I am only 154 cm and to cut the leg off to my height I would lose all the bootcut flair. So I obviously sent them back.

Too long
Posted 2 August 2013
I purchased a small, but it is still too long, I am 161cm, pulled them up, they were tight enough to stay up for a little while...then I need to pull up again. I dont purchase many of the fashion here, only because no-one will consider the shorter women.

Sad to say - this is not the best foundation I've used.
It doesn't cake, is very quick to apply, the light colour is good for my fair skin, it lasts all day, covers redness easily, and is natural looking - then what's wrong?
It doesn't make be look any better! Isn't that the prime reason for wearing makeup.
The compact didn't last for long - after a just few weeks it is almost empty.

Other reasons
Posted 13 September 2013
Sorry to hear that you dont look any better, maybe try changing your actual skincare, foundation can only do "so" much for any of us. Also try changing your food intake, fresh fruits and vegetables. Preservatives show on our skin and can make us all look not our best. Best to you x

By ladybird
from Newcastle NSW
What is the SPF in this? Is it 15 30 50 what percentage is it. I cant find it anywhere even on the description of the product. Amanda is quick to point out percentages of vitamin c in vitamin 8 but have never heard her talk about what the spf factor is in this. Makes me think its not very high. Anyway it is nice on skin but I would like to know so I dont just rely on this for protection.

Percentage
Posted 14 April 2014
Yes, when they launched this product, they said spf 15. They also said that this is for minor sun exposure, regular daily exposure, but for sport, working outdoors etc, use another higher spf percentage. I use a primer only.....and have just purchased the Alpha H spf 50 to try :)

Shocked
Posted 24 August 2014
I am not doubting your two reviews, but I am shocked that it is so negative. I am hoping this is a one off dud from her collection, as I am wanting to purchase some of her dresses. I haven't in the past, only because I was working on my weight and her dresses, I believe needed a slimmer body than what I had. I think that the prices are a bit steep for what they are, but I really dont think Sacha will evaluate her pricing due to her over confident personality. In Australia, we give more credit to people who are humble about their success.......not blowing ones own trumpet! I will read more reviews before purchasing.

2 out of 5Very poor quality for the price.
By Pandy
from Melbourne
I agree with the comments below. The material is so thin and very poor quality, no lining and quite see through requiring an under slip. Extremely high priced for the quality of fabric and there is much greater value in other TVSN and retail garments compared with many of these Sacha Drake items.
Very disappointing because the cut on her clothes is always beautiful and frequently very flattering but I have sent my garments from her back simply because I refuse to pay the price for the very below par articles.

By Roxybella

I have the turquoise and the brown. i have to say that they are not value for money. I was very disappointed with quality of the buddha charm it is a thin hollow mould made out of what appears to me to be plastic. The pieces in between the crystal beads are also plastic type that i have seen in my local bead shop. The brown necklace charm doesn't even have enough room around its charm link so it actually sticks out and doesnt drop down. I have taken this off. Having said that it is a good idea that you can wear as a bracelet or necklace but i could have made this for $30 buying beads from a shop or even buying a look alike from a low price jewellery shop. This is basically costume jewellery. I should have returned it but i didnt. Next time i will not buy this brand jewellery. Have also a blue beaded choker from last collection a few months ago which i paid $299 for and looks and feels like $50. Buyer beware. The star rating would not allow me to put one star so it is posted as four star which this product is not.

I really like the look, I wrapped twice around neck yesterday and I received a nice comment from a stranger. In saying that, the thread on the back was hanging down, trimmed it but was scared to invade it fell apart.
Feels cheap, yes I could have got the same look for a lot cheaper. Feels flimsy... Won't buy another Amy Kahn item again. The charm like plastic.

First use found the gel extremely hot, felt like I was burning all over. Straight into a cold shower. Bit frightened to even try the cream at night. I honestly think it should be left in the salon and not for personal use.

SBC explained clearly what to expect, where not to apply, drink water, eat well and exercise. The lotion is not so intense as this is for bedtime. I love this product and can't wait to report my progress and maybe even a pic.
