Beauty, Bites & Bubbles with Zaragoza & Benefit Cosmetics

I came across this package the other day and I just had to share it.  It sounds like a really fun way to spend time with your mum, sisters, aunts, cousins or any friend who likes to get their makeup done, drink bubbly and eat! It's the perfect idea for a unique Christmas get together.

Zaragoza have teamed up with their next door neighbours, Benefit Cosmetics, and brought together a gorgeous package of beauty, food and Cava. Gather your girlfriends and make it a night to remember with the Beauty, Bites and Bubbles package from one of the city’s most exciting new restaurants  Zaragoza, and the gorgeously girlie beauty brand Benefit. 

The night begins with a ‘makeupper’ while enjoying a glass of bubbly at the Benefit Boutique on South William Street. When you’re all looking sufficiently glamorous, pop in next door to Zaragoza to relax and enjoy a fabulous 8-course tapas meal. On the night, you will also get a 10% discount on all products and services and a free Benefit Deluxe sample. This is a great gift idea for mothers, sisters and friends who deserve a bit of pampering and a great night out, and all for just €39. 

Daragh Monaghan of Zaragoza says he’s delighted to be teaming up with Benefit to offer this wonderful package just in time for Christmas. “Benefit is the perfect brand match for Zaragoza, and being able to offer our customers such an experience is really exciting for us. Zaragoza is fun, friendly and all about people. We love offering the perfect setting for memorable nights out, with some great food, wine and cocktails into the mix.

It's Nice to Sweet You Too!

Hello, Ola, Bonjour, Buongiorno. A simple Hello can open a world of opportunity and now Swiss Chocolatier, Lindt, has launched its new range, HELLO, Nice to Sweet You. Us Irish love our chocolate and we eat more of it than practically every country in the world after Switzerland! This new HELLO range will make chocolate even harder to resist with four deliciously tempting flavours  - Cookies and Cream, Strawberry Cheesecake, Caramel Brownie and Crunchy Nougat.

I got to sample both the Strawberry Cheesecake and Crunchy Nougat and seeing as it was all about sharing the love I brought the rest into work. They went down a treat! 

As part of the launch of the new Lindt HELLO range, Lindt chocolate Ireland want to get people saying ‘Hello’. And, what better way to do just that than at a dating event! Lindt has teamed up with The MatchMaker to sponsor one of their events which will take place in Tonic Bar (Blackrock Co. Dublin) on Thursday 26th September at 8.30pm – for more details go to www.thematchmaker.ie. Here, The MatchMaker guests will get to say ‘Hello’ to new people whilst enjoying a selection of Lindt HELLO goodies from the newly launched range.

Chocolate and dating, it sounds like a match made in heaven to me!!

Disclosure: I was sent a few Lindt Hello goodies but was not asked for this review. I just think it sounds like a fun, novel way to meet people if you are single. Everything is made better by chocolate!
