How to win at life.

15 Oct

I first noticed the New Extra Professional Mints from Wrigley’s about a month ago. Bought it because I was attracted by its sleek, metal packaging…definitely won’t be squashed in my ever messy handbag. I got the Forest Berries flavour and glad I did because it was very tasty.

Was also surprised by the size of the candy, it’s quite substantial and I felt pleasure one could only derive from getting a good shopping bargain. The design of the candy is quite clever too. The ridged surface on one side is made from a special formula with dissolving microgranules, which helps to gently clean the tongue and left the mouth feeling fresh and delicious.

I got the Peppermint flavour not long after and it was equally as impressive. The taste of peppermint was strong but not overpowering. Popping the Peppermint flavoured New Extra Professional Mints is my favourite ritual before going on a romantic date with my man…

So yes, don’t forget the mints because a clean, fresh mouth goes a long way at a romantic liaison hehehe. And of course, you also need the right clothes! Here are two romance-friendly getup inspired by the two flavours of Wrigley’s New Extra Professional Mints:

1. Forest Berries

For an innocent day out :) Peekaboo shoulder to hint what lies ahead.

Do you write this sort of stuff yourself? Or does the advertising department of the product write it for you?

It feels to have a different set of fingers on the keyboard.

I like the Forrest Berries but not so much on the Peppermint. I’ve been eating them for ages too (the Forrest Berries flavor) and only knew about the ridges when I read about it. :S
