Top 3 Snacks for a flat tummy

Hello Loves,

 I don't know about you but I feel more confident in my clothes when I am in shape and happy with my weight. With my busy schedule I don't work out as often as I would like to but one thing I can control is my diet, I don't always eat the most healthiest of foods but I make sure to always have enough of the following snacks for their amazing benefits and to keep my weight in balance.

1. "Raw" peanut butter (not the processed kind): beneficial in lowering LDL (bad) cholesterol. Good source of protein, fiber as well as vitamins E and B3. Since the fat and fiber in peanut butter is digested slowly, you tend to feel full longer which decreases your hunger. 

Try: Peanut butter sandwiches on whole grain bread.

2. Apples: Also, beneficial in lowering LDL cholesterol. Apples are low in calories, fat and sodium. Good source of vitamin C and fiber. The Fiber in apples tends to also make you feel full longer thus decreasing your hunger.

Try: Spreading peanut butter into slices of apples.

3. Almonds: Lower LDL cholesterol as well. Good source of protein, potassium, magnesium, iron, zinc and vitamin E. 

Try: Unsalted Almonds. Easy snack to carry to suppress your hunger between breaks on a busy day.

Let me know if you enjoy these kind of nutritional posts?  I am not an expert, everything I mentioned is based on my own experience and research. Last but not least, I would love to know of your favorite on the go snacks. Thanks for reading.

REVIEW: MAC vs. ELF eyeliner pen

 Click for product: MAC penultimate eyeliner , ELF waterproof eyeliner pen

left: MAC, right: ELF

MAC: 

pros: fine tip, 0.3 oz (a tiny bit bigger than elf.) Lasts all day (with UD primer potion).

cons: I sometimes find myself going over my line twice to get the amount of pigment I want. 

ELF:

pros: one swipe and I'm done, great pigment, true black. Lasts all day (with UD primer potion)

Price: 

MAC: $17.50 ELF $1.00 

My Review: I personally prefer eyeliner pens, for me it is much easier to apply and less messy. I bought the MAC penultimate eyeliner and fell in love with it but about a month ago my friend gifted me with the ELF waterproof eyeliner pen and although I love both of them the price difference is what truly gets me. If you are looking for a cheaper alternative or perhaps just want to start experimenting with eyeliner, I recommend the ELF eyeliner pen in a heartbeat. I hope this helped, feel free to ask any questions or let me know of your favorite eyeliner.
