BOOTS MEDITERRANEAN Melon Sugar Mint body scrub.

Advantages: Smells good enough to eat. Gorgeous gooey gummy consistency.
Disadvantages: None

...************************ ABOUT THE RANGE ************************ About two years ago Boots Launced their Mediterranean range, which included bath and body products laced with mediterranean ingredients such as olives, almonds, milk and fruits. There are shower gels and bath foams that are scented with ripened figs, face cream packed with almonds and milk and this, the item Im reviewing, a sumptuous body scrub packed with melon and sugar. ************************ MY EXPERIENCE ************************ Ive tried a few products in this range and this is the one I keep going back for. Its utterly delicious. I got my first pot of this delicious scrub in a special box for my 18th birthday. My boyfriend bought a big bift box and bought me loads of goodies to pack inside it. Woo! I instantly loved the smell of this scrub...

Review of Boots Mediterranean Sugar Mint Body Scrub

SHOWER YOURSELF IN MEDITERRANEAN LUXURY

Advantages: Three luscious varieties to choose from, smells gorgeous, leaves your skin feeling ultra smooth.
Disadvantages: Perhaps slightly more expensive than standard body washes.

...Boots Mediterranean body wash makes even the most hum-drum shower just a little more, well... Mediterranean. Don't believe me? Read on! The Boots Mediterranean range, usually in a section all to itself, offers a tempting selection of high quality products made with NATURAL ingredients, like almond and wheat germ, hazelnut and orange. If you love Lush, this stuff is along the same lines, but perhaps slightly more affordable. And best of all, everything in it smells alluringly scrumptious! I have yet to discover the entire range, but the body wash itself is truly an exotic treat. Priced at £3.95 and often on offer, it comes in tidy 200 mL tubes that rest on attractive black lids. The product name is large and graphically pleasing, the descriptions below are in both English and French (which perhaps adds to its exotic...

Boots - the Store

Advantages: Quality products all under one roof
Disadvantages: None

...Everybody's favourite High Street chemist and beauty store! The Boots Company PLC is a chain of high street stores known for their pharmacy and beauty/health products. You can find a Boots on just about every high street in Britain. In fact Boots has approximately 1,500 stores in the UK and abroad. This is the thing I like most about it, you are always guaranteed to find a store wherever you are in the country which makes it easy when you need to buy a repeat brand or just need to pop into one quickly because you have left your toothbrush at home on a weekend away. Boots was founded in Nottingham in 1849 by a gentleman called John Boot, hence the name and turned into a chain by his son Jesse. Boots stores are very easy to spot and recognize on the high street. They include a big blue sign with Boots written on it in cursive white...

Review of Boots

Emerald, a Jewel in the Mediterranean.

Advantages: Excellent value at the price.
Disadvantages: Few trimmings

...Never have I had such a miserable start to a holiday. It was just over a year ago, and I was feeling jaded and tired when I saw on the internet a cutprice Thomson cruise holiday in the Mediterranean. I had no hesitation in booking at once. Later, I got the brochure which confirmed my opinion that the twelve day holiday on the cruise ship Emerald was going to be somewhat downmarket, but at the price I didn?t mind that. It was costing me only £729, all inclusive. If that sounds a lot, ask yourself where you could find an all-inclusive hotel for that price. I had to join the Emerald at Palma, Majorca, and the journey was dreadful. The charter flight to Palma had been scheduled for mid-morning, giving me time to get to Gatwick from my home in Oxfordshire, but almost at the last minute it was changed to 05.45, and I felt I could not ask...

Review of Thomson Travel - Mediterranean Cruise

Mediterranean cuisine in Wales

Advantages: petit picturesque location,good turkish food, friendly accommodating staff, cheap prices
Disadvantages: not many...only one..in S. Wales?

...During my recent travels to the beautiful Welsh coastline I came across this delightful Turkish restaurant called "Mediterranean" in the petit Victorian town of Mumbles*. There are a variety of restaurants in Mumbles from fine French, English, Italian and Indian but this is apparently the only Turkish restaurant in South Wales. Meditteranean is a fairly new restaurant in Mumbles has only been open for approx. 10 months. We found this restaurant on a freezing Winters night after finishing the infamous “Mumbles Mile” round of the pubs..... We wondered if we’d get a complete meal at this late time (after 10.30p.m) in such a small town. We then stumbled across this Turkish restaurant called Mediterranean, which looked warm and cosy with dim lit candles. I thought they maybe closed as there appeared to be cleaning...

Advantages: You can buy most things here
Disadvantages: Some things are slightly more expensive than other places

...Ive been thinking about writing an op on Boots for months, but theres just a million and one things to say about it, so Ive been holding off.

Review of Boots Boots

Mediterranean smoothie!

Advantages: Smell, consistancy, smooth skin
Disadvantages: none!

...This product is one of the best moisturisers I have ever tried. It is available in two sizes, 200ml (£5.00) and 100ml (£2.00). So you are better off buying two smaller sizes and saving a pound, strange way to price these boots! It's packaging is nice and simple in a clear tub with a black lid with large writing on it. When you first look at the product it looks like a greasy, mint green coloured mush if that makes sense! I was a bit wary of it but once you scoop it out it feels a bit like a thick mousse. It smooths onto skin easily and is surprisingly absorbed quickly into your skin leaving it soft and supple. It leaves a beautiful orange smell to your skin to though this is not overpowering. I have psoriasis and very sensitive skin but it was very good with me, left my skin feeling really good without the slightest bit...

Review of Boots Mediterranean Body Butter Olive, Bergamot, Orange

A taste of the Mediterranean from your own home

Advantages: Chunky chicken; lovely creamy sauce; juicy peppers
Disadvantages: I froze it when I shouldn't have but no harm done!

...I love Asda's range of 'fresh tastes' prepared chickens variations (NB - The used to be called 'GO COOK'). There are a huge range; my other favourite is the mago chicken but you can get chicken en croute; chicken in lime/ barbeacue/ orange' thighs etc... In each tin foiled tray you get two chicken breasts. This serves 2 people but my step-dad eats a pack to himself...men! I chose 'Asda Fresh Tastes Mediterranean chicken breasts' because they had everything I love wth chicken (i.e. Cheese, peppers and onions). The product description sounded appealing - '2 chicken breasts with peppers and red onion in a rich tomato sauce, topped with feta cheese'. I've never tried feta cheese but there only seemed to be a few cubes of it as I pulled off the cardboard sleeve to peer into the contents of the container. I figured I could scrape it off if...

Boots

Advantages: Convenient, loyalty points system, frequent special offers
Disadvantages: Some overpriced items

...Boots is a well-known chemist with stores up and down the country. If you don't have one near you, or find it inconvenient, you can buy products from the website at http://www.boots.com. Boots sell cosmetics, medicines, perfumes, haircare products, even sandwiches, and they are even branching out into areas like Botox, photo-processing, opticians, and laser-eye surgery! I have seen these advertised, but I have not used these services, so I can't comment on them. I have two stores near me, but I'm concentrating on the Trafford Centre branch for now. It is spread out into two floors - the ground floor deals with photo-processing and baby products, ie: nappies, bottles, etc. The upper floor is dedicated almost entirely to cosmetics, haircare products, etc, with a small section for the food (sandwiches, crisps, drinks, etc...
