Review on Snack Experts

Hi Guys,

This is the first time I’m doing a review on subscription box and that too, it’s not based on beauty products.

Today, I have come up with the review of Snackexperts.com which helps you keep munching without compromising on your health.

I found this idea quite very unique, so I thought of trying it out. When I contacted them, they were kind enough to send me a box for trying. So here is my review of the same.

Their Mission:

At snack experts, we promote snacks that are safer, healthier, and better for people & our planet. From increased rates of cancer and diabetes to climate change, it has become clear that the eatables we put in us, on us and around us – and the way those products are sourced, manufactured and delivered – is causing us all real harm , instead of nourishing.

Our main focus is to introduce our array of snacks to shoppers who want the best of themselves, their families, their communities & our planet to create a better and happier world.

I received Standard Box which consisted of 5 snack pouches weighing   150gm each.

Snacks that I received in my box are:

     2)      Chocolate Flapjack

     3)      Triberry medley

My Experience of SnackExperts:

We find many beauty subscriptions in India, but this one is quite unique. I found this quite very interesting and helpful.

Talking about me, I am a working girl and I live alone. Having busy life, I don’t get time to cook frequently. So whenever I am hungry, without checking the nutritional value, I start munching on any snacks, which is a bad habit. Just like me, there are many other people who do the same.

Snack Experts is a rescue for all of us. The snacks that they are providing are made up with good quality ingredients and very healthy. And they have also broke the myth that Healthy is boring. I found all the 5 snacks quite very yummy.

If you check out their range of snacks, they are quite very unique. I was really surprised by seeing them as I never thought making something as such is also possible.

I carry this snacks to my workplace and keep munching them whenever I’m hungry.

I really liked this concept and would definitely recommend it all others.  

Check out their website here - SnackExperts and order for your box now.

The one I have has Touch & Glow shade (029) which compliments my skin tone perfectly.

Now let’s move to my review.

Product Description:

Olivia pancake is especially formulated with ISI approved material to provide protection to your skin from pollution and light rays. As such, it is an ideal makeup for Cine/TV stars.

To apply this, use a damp sponge. Take the product and apply it directly in your face and neck evenly. After drying, use a soft cloth to wipe of the makeup area.

Shelf Life:

3 years from the date of packaging.

Price and quantity:

Price is Rs.110/- for net weight 25gm.

Packaging:

Olivia Pancake comes in a black and golden colored circular plastic tub with a black colored translucent lid.

The lid is quite sturdy which makes it travel friendly.

It comes with a white colored sponge which is of good quality. Pancake and sponge is separated by a transparent case to keep it clean.

This tub is again packed in a cardboard rectangular black colored box.

All the required details are printed on the tub as well as box.

It has very smooth texture. It is light weighted and does not make you feel cakey.

It is neither too silky nor too powdery. It has floral fragrance which keeps on lingering for some time.

It is a light compact which works perfectly, especially for summers. It gives nice matte finish which controls oil and helps in looking good.

I have been using it on everyday purpose since last 1 week. It has not given me any breakouts yet. For an oily skin, this means a lot and therefore I loved this product.

Summers are here and our face tend to get dull and dusky in this season. Having an oily skin, I don’t really prefer to apply moisturizers too as it makes my face more oily. And applying makeup every day to work looks really bad. So when I came across this product, I felt it was a much needed product which is just perfect for someone like me.

So if you are also like me, and want to know more about this product then keeps on reading.

It helps in giving even toned brightness to your skin.

Directions of usage:

This product can be used in replacement of compact. Use this just like any other talcum powder.

I prefer to moisturize my skin first using any light weight, water based moisturizer and then I take little amount of BB talc and apply it all over my face. I dust all excess powder using my makeup brush.

For better results, apply this powder using puff or makeup sponge.
