Liz Earle Superskin Oils

I love a good body oil, especially in the winter, as my skin gets a bit dry from the central heating. My elbows and knees are my problem areas and when I feel the dryness rubbing against my clothes, I know it's time for a pamper! The two Liz Earle Superskin Oils are perfect for that and I can't stop using them. 

Shimmering Body Oils

It looks like I might be jetting off to a hot country at the end of the month. It wasn't planned (we were supposed to go in October) and we are not sure where we are going yet. Spain, Portugal and France are possible options, but we will just get the best last minute deal, if everything goes according to plan.  If not, we will just go to Scarborough with my in-laws for a week to enjoy the British seaside. The weather is supposed to be lovely from the 21st of July :) With that in mind, I went through my stash of shimmering body oils to make sure I have plenty to choose from. I am absolutely addicted to them and I go through many bottles in Spring/Summer.

Weekend Pamper #2

I am not sure, if this feature will be a weekly occurrence, but I am hoping to mention some pamper products most weekends, or when I have some new exciting products to try out. I love a good pamper night, so it is something I enjoy talking/writing about. Here are some of the products I used last night :) 

The Bathory Personalised Bath Soak

The Bathory Personalised Bath Soak* ($30.00/£18.00)

I love baths and I often spend hours soaking in essential oils and other mystery concoctions :) haha. When I was offered a chance to create my own personalised bath soak, I couldn't say no. The process is really simple and you can order your own blend by following two easy steps.

January Favourites

It's time to share my monthly favourites again :) All products featured in this post (except one) are brand new or relatively new discoveries and I absolutely looooove them! I tried to keep a nice balance between makeup, haircare, bodycare and skincare this time and I will do my best to avoid writing a long essay :)

Marie Reynolds Ti Amo Candle Duo

Created by a professional beauty therapist Marie Reynolds, the 'Ti Amo' candle duo would make a lovely gift for Valentine's Day. It consists of two massage candles: Indulge and Passion and comes in a lovely gift box. Each candle burns for approximately 10 hours and contains 5oz of wax.

Neom Refresh Body Wash

Neom Refresh Body Wash* 240ml, £18.00

I love Neom's Refresh range, especially the gorgeous room spray and candle. I use them, when I want my house to smell very fresh, but not overpowering and they work really well in the kitchen as well. That's why I was very excited to try the Refresh body wash and I must admit - it is a  gorgeous product.

2013 Favourites: Body Care & Hair Care

Just like my skincare favourites, these were super easy for me to pick :) Out of 6 body care and hair care products featured in this post, I already repurchased 4 of them and the other two are on my 'to buy' list, once I use up other alternatives. 

Post-Christmas pamper :)

Hi everyone :) I hope you had the most wonderful Christmas and enjoyed every single minute of it. I actually took some time off  blogging and social media for the first time in two years and it felt really good. My little boy absolutely loved all his presents and the look on his gorgeous face was priceless. I can honestly say, that my favourite part of Christmas is giving presents to everyone and seeing their reaction. After all the celebrations and eating far too many chocolates, all I needed was a long, relaxing bath with some festive bath and body treats. 

My picks from the Harrods Sale - Laura Mercier bargains

 I became slightly obsessed with Laura Mercier bath & body products recently and I couldn't wait to get my mitts on some of the lovely LM gift sets in the sales. As soon as I noticed the Harrods sale going live, some goodies went straight into my basket. YAY! :)

Brand Spotlight: The Rose Tree

I recently got a chance to try some fabulous products from a luxury organic brand called The Rose Tree and I really wanted to introduce you to their beautiful skincare, body care and candles. I featured the Carrot & Mango Cleansing Butter in my 'Morning skincare routine' post, but today I will be reviewing two more product I have been using throughout October.
