Wanted! – Tasty snack bars with less than 100 calories. Review

July 6, 2011 by Nellie Lee Luhrmann 1 Comment

Before you ask what does this have to do with “craft” WANTED! snack bars are made in Australia (for the body conscious person) and are the brain child of  Slim Secrets Founder Sharon Thurin so that counts in my eyes.  I am writing about these bars today because deep down in all of us is a woman wanting to do the right thing by her body. Who is going to turn their nose up at something as tasty as a WANTED! Bar. When Slim Secrets asked customers what they “WANTED” in a bar  many came back and said that they would like a bar with less than 100 calories that are nutritionally balanced, gluten-free, with no artificial colours, flavours or sweeteners that tasted great!.  Slim Secrets listened and as a result their WANTED! Range was born. Not only do the WANTED! bars taste like a decadent treat but they provide you with solutions to your snacking dilemmas  and all with all under 100 calories per bar….. GENIUS!!!!!!!

You can choose from 4 delicious protein/fibre filled flavours

Peach Perfection Snack Bar

Feeling unwanted? What you need is a dose of sumptuous peach and a rub down to soothe the mind and body and give you a special glow. Goodbye peaky hello peachy!

Not really a “peach” type of girl I still enjoyed this bar. Chewy and crunchy with a coating of white chocolate on the bottom YUMMO!!!!!!

Cranberry Choc ‘N’ Nuts Snack Bar

You said you wanted to have it all. Well now you can with a side order of nutritious berries and nuts to offset that wicked chocolate and you have a win-win situation.

This did not even touch the sides by far my favourite of the 3 I did try. I could smell the cranberry as I opened it. Loved the milk chocolate coating on the bottom. Same texture as the other bars Chewy and crunchy at the same time. I felt like I was being naughty, super happy that I was being good. A great choice to fulfil your afternoon chocolate cravings.

Juicy Apple & Cinnamon Snack Bar

Adam & Eve discovered that the most forbidden fruit is always the most wanted! Go ahead and have it all with this tempting, guilt-free snack bar.

Wow this one came in 2nd for me I could smell the cinnamon ( love cinnamon ) and apples. I would eat this one  anytime of the day but if I was in a hurry to get to work and had run out of time to have breakfast I would eat this one for sure.

Vanilla Almond Snack Bar

So you really want to indulge? Well here’s our little secret – aromatic vanilla and crunchy, satisfying almond pieces that taste gorgeous and cheekily under 100 calories!

Did not get to try this one but after trying the other 3 …………….. let me at it!!!!!

DIY Summer Nail Designs You’ll Want to Rock All Season Long

As soon as the weather heats up and the days get longer, I swap out my moody nail colors for something a little more fun, flirty, and full of sunshine. Summer is the perfect excuse to get playful with your nail designs — and this year, I’ve been experimenting at home to find a few favorites that are both easy to paint and seriously cute.

I’ve rounded up three of my go-to summer nail looks that you can totally do yourself, even if you’re not a pro. These are the styles I keep coming back to because they’re fun, eye-catching, and honestly — they just make you feel good. Whether you’re heading to the beach, a backyard BBQ, or just want to admire your nails while holding an iced latte, these are the ones to try.

Let’s dive in!

Sunset Ombre Nails

This is hands down one of the most satisfying nail designs you can do yourself. The colors melt into each other like a beach sunset, and the end result looks way more advanced than it really is.

You’ll Need:

  • A base coat

  • Three polishes (I use pink, orange, and yellow)

  • A makeup sponge

  • Top coat

  • Nail polish remover for cleanup

How to Do It:

  1. Start with a clear base coat to protect your nails.

  2. Paint horizontal stripes of your 3 colors directly onto the makeup sponge.

  3. Dab the sponge gently onto your nail, reapplying polish to the sponge as needed. Tap until the gradient blends.

  4. Clean up any excess polish around your cuticle.

  5. Apply a top coat to smooth the colors and add shine.

This design is one of those that looks good even when it’s a little messy — the top coat really pulls it all together.

 

 Tropical Palm Silhouettes

If you want vacation vibes without actually going anywhere, this one’s for you. The pastel base paired with simple black palm trees gives it that dreamy island feel.

You’ll Need:

  • A light pastel base polish or soft gradient background

  • Black nail art pen or thin brush with black polish

  • Top coat

How to Do It:

  1. Paint your nails with a soft pastel or ombre base.

  2. Once dry, draw a thin curved line for the palm trunk.

  3. From the top of the trunk, add small lines that fan out to mimic palm fronds.

  4. Let everything dry completely before adding a glossy top coat.

Even if your palm trees aren’t perfect, they still look awesome. Think of it like nail doodling — just more tropical.

 

 Watermelon French Tips

This design is so cheerful, I smile every time I see it. It’s a fruity twist on a French manicure and it’s perfect for pool parties or picnics.

You’ll Need:

  • Pink polish for the base

  • Green and white for the rind

  • Black polish for the seeds (use a dotting tool or toothpick)

  • Base and top coat

How to Do It:

  1. Paint your entire nail a soft pink.

  2. Add a green curved tip at the top edge (like a French tip).

  3. Under the green, paint a very thin white stripe.

  4. Add small black dots on the pink section to create seeds.

  5. Seal it all in with your favorite top coat.

This one is such a crowd-pleaser and looks adorable on both long and short nails.

Whether you try one of these or rotate through all three this summer, I hope these nail designs add a little color and creativity to your routine. They’re simple enough to do at home but still look like you spent time (and money!) at the salon.

Let me know which one you’re trying first — and don’t forget to tag us if you share your summer nail look!
