yankee candle - cherries on snow

As Chritmas fast approaches us, all the festive yankee candle scents are about.
If you know me personally or watch my youtube Channel you would know I am a huuuuuge  Yankee candle addict. The obsession actually started from the Christmas scent "Cherries On Snow"

Cherries On Snow came back this year for Christmas after been taken away from UK shelves for a few years.

This happy uplifting Winter Cherry scent is fruity with a hint of marzipan (almonds) and when lit, puts a smile on my face with its crisp scent.

If you are not into the "traditional" holiday scents like cinnamon and spices, then I think this would be the candle for you this winter/Christmas.

Apart from how amazing the candle smells, the way the product looks is rather beautiful.

The paraffin wax is a lovely festive red colour, what would compliment your home decor and would just look dashing next to  a Christmas decoration.

If you like the Yankee canldes "Black Cherry" im sure you would love "cherries on snow" - as in my personal opinion this candle reminds me of "black cherry" and "sparkling snow" mixed together

I purchased the small candle as I have so many scents i want to burn this winter. This classic size burns for  25-40 hours.

Here is last years christmas candle haul video

yankee candle "bundle up" review

as its that  festive time of the year again, it means new christmas scented candles are now out in shops!

yankee candle have brought some lovely fragrances out this year:

• bundle up
• cosy by the fire
• winter glow
• berry trifle 

but today i am going to talk to you about the fresh scent "bundle up"

for starters i love the image they have chosen for the candle!
its four children bundled up, sat outside in the cold snow whilst probably drinking hot chocolate.

the candle has a nice fresh scent to it. if you are a lover of the scents "clean cotton" "fluffy towels" and so on, i believe this is a new scent you will love!

when i smell the candle it reminds me of clean washed comfy coats and winter wear like scarf's and hats in my personal opinion. it defiantly a comfort scent with memories of clean wintery linen.

i give this candle 10/10 for its scent and appearance. - i do sometimes judge candles by there images as i think it adds more fun to the candle

here is a christmas candle haul i did on my youtube channel where i talk about this candle more in depth along with all the otherschristmas/winter scents i have got

fooddiscoverybox.com contacted me and asked if I would be interested in doing a review about them. as soon as I checked the website I was like "ohhhh yeeeahh"

I found the website really easy to use and the menu had lots of new and unique foods to choose from like "beetroot ketchup" -  of course chose this delicious sounding sauce to go in my box!

I also picked out salt and black pepper cashew nuts, honey roasted cashew nuts, raspberry white chocolate with popping candy and some coffee. i was then sent some garlic pickled eggs along with some apple and raspberry fruit jerky. - I have done a taste test of these products in my youtube video  and you can either click the link here or carry on reading and at the end of the blog post i will post my video review.

007 for women review

hello scent lovers and perfume collectors!
i was sent a bottle of the seductive 007 for women to test out and try out. i also had some samples to hand out to friends and family.

my personal opinion
when i first opened my package i couldn't help but notice the lovely packaging. it comes in a black bottle with some lovely detailing on it, even the box was beautiful!.
as soon as i sprayed the perfume i went "mmmmmm"
it has a sweet smell to it, but not a sickly over powering sweet, but a nice girly sweet.
i like the fact that the scent makes me feel like a mysterious, sexy bond woman! 
i think its a perfect scent to wear when you want to go out clubbing and want to feel sexy and seductive! would also be great to wear on a date.

friends opinions
now everyone has their own personal preference to smells and i got mixed opinions on the product.
the majority of the people who i spoke to about the product really liked the feminine  scent and most said they would purchase 007 for women.

im going to use my Mother as an example now:
my mum is 51 and didnt like the scent at all and said it was too sweet for her and its not her cup of tea.
my neighbour who is 64 also didnt like the scent as she prefers musky scents.

the majority of my friends who tried the scent are aged between 18-30 and most of them really liked the smell and thought it was sexy. there was a couple who likedthe smell but just said it wasnt for them as they prefer other types of scents.

i would say
going by the age groups i spoke to, i would say its a scent more directed for under 40s. im not saying in no way at all that older people wont enjoy the sexual scent, its just that the older i people i spoke to, did not enjoy the fragrance very much. i am no way ageist and i would recommend any one of any age trying it!

its such a pretty bottle and would look great on any dressing table. its also a nice shape so it fits really nicely in your handbag.

if any of you have tried out this fragrance feel free to let me know your opinions on it.

yankee candle shea butter review

if you are one of my subscribers from my youtube channel you would of seen i have a slight addiction to the amazing yankee candles.

yanke candle have brought some lovely scents out for spring including: red raspberry, pink grapefruit, Moroccan argon oil, frankincense cassis, aloe water, oud oasis, and of course my favourite shea butter.

out of the new spring collection i have purchased "Moroccan argon oil" in a tart, "red raspberry" in a sampler candle, "aloe water" in a small jar candle and then the "shea butter" in a medium size jar (what im currently burning now)

about yankee shea butter
when i first smelt this candle it brought back memories of being on holiday abroad with my family. i believe this could be because shea butter is in allot of products and possibly even sun cream or after sun.
it is a creamy smooth scent.
i does not state on the yankee candle website that it has coconut it, but me personally, i can smell a very light coconut scent.

the scent is not over powering (what i usually like) but it defiantly makes the room full up with shea butter goodness. - it really does remind me of being on holiday, so i highly recommend if any of you suffer from depression  or sadness on a dull rainy day. it really lightens my mood.

my yankee candle haul
so i did have a yankee candle splurge in the last week and brought allot of candles. i have done a haul video over on my youtube channel if anyone would like to check it out.

ted baker "polly"

so i love anything that smells great, i love yankee candles, lush products, body mists, perfumes and anything else that smells good.

my newest smell obsession is this sweet smelling scent by ted baker.
i know there are a few more scents in the "teds sweet treat" range, but i have only smelt this one called "polly"

what i love about this girly scent is its not sickly sweet. "polly" is a fruity/musky smell and is perfect for any occasion.

i love the 10ml size and the shape of the bottle, as it fits nicely in my handbag. its perfect to grab when i need a little pick me up at work or when im out with the girls.

aussie leave in conditioner review

hello beautiful people of the interwebs!
i have very thick long hair. i also dye my hair blonde very often, so its often very dry, unless i use my favourite hair products by aussie.

so the other week i decided to curl my hair using a curling wand. i know its not healthy for my hair, but every strand i curled i sprayed a large amount of tesco hairspray on that piece before curling it around the heated wand. after i finally curled each piece of my hair a sprayed in more hair spray. my hair was very rock hard and crispy, but it looked really nice in my own opinion, and i new for a fact these curls wernt dropping during the night...

the next day i woke up really late and didnt have chance to wash or brush my hair (i know that sounds really skank)
my hair was so dry, so crispy and really knotty. i couldnt even get a brush through it the following day. when i started trying to brush my hair, it seemed like it kept snapping my hair. i was very upset.

i spoke to my sister "jess" and she recommended using a "leave in conditioner" 
we spoke about a few and then said about "aussie miracle hair insurance leave in conditioner"

so i rushed to superdrug to buy some. As soon as i got home i sprayed the product in my hair and was able to brush out the knots and curls. i was so happy! it saved my hair!

after i washed it i then sprayed some of the leave in conditioner in my hair and once my hair dried it felt silky soft and smelt amazing!

i love this product and i highly recommend it. it really works and also smells fabulous!
the product has jojoba seed oil in it and helps de-tangle and protect your hair from every day wear and tear. this life saver is currently £4.49 in superdrug.

having PCOS

hello my beautiful little peas! so today i thought i would share with you my personal experience with Polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos)

so PCOS is one of the most common endocrine disorders that sadly some of us women experience. now allot of people seem to think because they have a cyst on their ovary that the have PCOS, this is no way true!

you can have PCOS with out having cysts on your ovary's and just because you have a cyst does no way mean you have this illness. - you need to have blood tests done before you can be fully diagnosed with it.

the symptoms:

• weight gain and troubles losing it
• oily skin or acne
• having irregular periods or no periods at all
• not being able to get pregnant 
• thinning of the hair
• facial hair, hair around the nipples, chest and lower abdomen
• polycystic ovary's

  missing my periods was my first symptom followed by the weight gain! i think i was more upset about the weight gain more than anything. i went from a size UK 8/10 to now a size 16.

before PCOS

now with PCOS

how depressing right? im all about loving your own body, but now i really have got to a part in my life where i am very unhappy. diets dont seem to work very well with me, as the weight just does not seem to go very easily.

the other symptom i suffer really bad from and thats facial hair. i am lucky i am blonde so it does not show up as easy, but when the sun light hits it, it lights it right up!

i was at work the other day, serving some teenagers. the sunlight hit my face and you could see all the blonde hairs. i felt so embarrassed as i hear the teenagers laughing and joking about my face. saying comments like "oh my god, i would shave it off"

i do use hair removal cream, but i have to let it grow to a certain length otherwise it stings so much when i apply the product. - a few days ago i used "superdrugs own brand" for facial hair removal and it burn my face so much and dried out all my skin. i even burn the top part of my lip. ive tried waxing before but i dont seem to have the will power to pull of the wax strips.

im lucky my hair has not thinned or left bald patches, but i have seen ladies who sadly who have had to go through this.

my whole experience with PCOS has been horrid. sadly i cant take medication to help prevent the symptoms. - i used to be on the pill to regulate my periods but came off for a few months. my GP now says im far to overweight to be given the pill.

the picture above is me feeding my Godson leo.
im now approaching that moment in my life where i would like children. me and my ex boyfriend split up in august now, so im currently single, but at the time i was with him i wished i had got pregnant and it never happened.

if any body reading this has just been diagnosed with PCOS i just want you to know that you are not alone. they say 10 out of 100 woman have this illness. if anybody would like any more information, feel free to comment.

december favourites

hello my beautiful readers! so its the end of december now and i thought i would share with you some of my favourite products from december! i also have made a video called december/christmas favourites on my youtube channel explaining some of my favourite items.

yankee candles:
each year yankee candle brings out some amazing christmas scented candles. i did purchase a few of them and even the yankee candle advent calender. now with the yankee candle advent calender i didnt like the fact that when you open the door to get out your tea light of the day, there was no picture or text! it didnt even tell you what scent it was, what i found rather disappointing.
some of my favourites were: christmas candles was: christmas garland, candy cane lane, christmas cookie and icicles.

christmas memories was by far my absolute favourite! it semlt so christmas like and had reminded me of christmas pudding.
now black cherry is not a christmas scent but it is one of my favourite everyday smells.

lush:
i love lush! its one of my favourite stores ever, as when you walk in the smell is so strong.
lush has brought out some great christmas specials including: magic wand, the christmas penguin, butter bear, dashing santa and many other great bath time treats. my favourite lush product of this year will have to be snow fairy! i am addicted to its sweet candy floss scent and how it makes my skin smell.

other favourites:
my other faves of december happen to be:

• gosh lip stain
• boujours blusher
• barrmy m nail polish
• primark slipper boots
• magnitone lucid
• witch spot on stick

to hear about' what i have to say about the other products i have mentioned, please watch my video where i tell you why i love them.

i have  enjoyed looking through the collection and have put together a wishlist

jumpers

fairisle reindeer jumper £14.00

bow print fluffy jumper £15.00

my 2nd choice of jumper is this super duper cuuuute bow printed fluffy jumper! as some of you know, i do love my bows. fluffy jumpers is a must in my winter wardrobe. they are great to snuggle into with a pair of leggings and a hot chocolate by the fire.

onesies

tartan print onesie- £19.99
adult superman onesie - £14.99

i do love love love onesies. my wardrobe has a fair few inside, BUT there is always room for more! thats why i have chosen this two very fetching onesies. i think tartan is very christmassy, so it will be ideal in the "holiday" season. i also chose superman as its just fun and looks very comfortable indeed!
the website has a rather good selection of different themed onesies that i highly recommend checking out.

dresses
the website has a huuuge selection of diferent style dresses, ranging from "the little black dress" to  bright floral, smart/casual and even some more funkier types.

80s print mesh sleeve bodycon £14.99

i have picked out this wacky, loud 80s printed bodycon dress. i think it has so much personality and would look great with black tights Chelsea boots. its a dress i would personally wear for a few glasses of wine at a local bar with my girlfriends.

bags and purses

bow spike detail clutch bag £14.99
embellish detail shopper bag £19.99
skull purse £8.99

a girl can never have too many handbags! the website has a good range of bags for all occasions.
i have picked out three i really like. the "bow spike detail clutch bag" is probably my most favourite. i find the bow detail cuuute-tastic! i wouls use this stylish bag when i am dressed up to go out to dinner or a party!

the "embellish detail shopper bag" is also on my wishlist! this bag would be ideal for me when i go out on shopping trips as its a great size and is worn over the solder. i love the girly embellishments added on the bag, for that extra added style.

my third and final product i found in the "bag" section on the website was this "skull purse"
im very picky when it comes to purses but i have fallen in love with this one. i adore the skull detailing on this black purse as its subtle, yet its still noticeable.

there is something for everyone on this website!

lush haul!

hello my beautiful bambinos! so the other day i went into lush and danced around like a little fairy with the limited edition magic wand bubble bar and i also picked some other goodies up as well. ohhhhh and the reason the first picture you see in my blog is my face is because i also brought a new top that day and love the cute frilly collar detailing :)

so here with have the amazing magic wand bubble bar. it is a lovely shade of cuteness, meaning pink. it is complete with a little dangler bell and magenta string.
this lovely candy smelling wand is so much fun for all ages! take a look at me! im a twenty something female who gets excited over this magical bubble creator! all you need to do is run your bath like normal and swish it around under the tap like you are making a fairy tale magical potion of bubbles.

 so now we are all professional fairy's i highly recommended buying the limited edition snow fairy shower gel! it has a unique sweet smell to it that isn't to over powering. its pink and girly with added glittery sparkly fairy dust. it was out last year but sadly i never got to try it. i was told in my local store that this year they have added seaweed for skin softening, what is always a bonus.

so here we have star light, star bright! this sparkly silver beauty is a lime, lavender and ginger scented bath melt! as you can see in the picture, i have rubbed allot of the magical silver off as its just beautiful. in this lovley little bath melt is packed with some great ingredients to make your skin feel baby bottom soft, including extra virgin coconut oil and organic shea butter. i believe that your bath water should turn to a lovely mystic turquoise colour.

the next little feller that i got was butterbear! now i picked him up because of the ingredients in him as they sounded just perfect for my needs!  fair trade colombian cocoa butter being one of them! he also has some ylang ylang oil inside of him, so im sure to have lovely soft skin when i get out of the bath!

i love lush products as they dont test on animals and they are just so much fun to use! please check out the video i did on the lush products over on my youtube channel

remember me

i am madly in love with robert pattinson since i watched twilight...and yes i am a twilight geek!
soooo my sister lent me this dvd yesterday and told me how beautiful he looks in this movie. i put it on and agreed on his apperence! thats not all, his acting was amazing. so rob plays a character called tyler whose parents split up after his older brother commited suicide. then there is a girl named ally who trys and lives every day to the fullest after witnessing the murder of ther mother when she was eleven years old.

the story is set in new york city in the summer of 2001 where tyler meets ally through a twist of fate. allys fun personality helps tyler heal after the family tragedy but soon after the circumstances that brought them together threaten to tear them apart!

now this is going to be a spoiler if you havent seen the movie!
...........................................................................................
i was emotional durin the film but i also found it funny! my sister did tell me something sad happend in it. i wish she never told me as i then kept trying to gues what happend. tylers younger sister is bullied at school and all the girls call her wierd and even hacked her hair off at one point, also her dad has n othing to with her to start off with. so i aaumed she was goinjg to end up commiting suicide...she didnt. the film started ending in a nice way, things where becomming perfect. tyler goes to his dads office to meet him there. his dad was taken his daughter to school so wasnt there at that moment. so the movie makes you think theres going to be a happy ending.....

a scene is a classroom, the camera zooms in on a date on the balckboard
september 9th 2001

next scene : twin towers, tyler' is stood looking out the windown. in the whole film you never realise that his dads office was in the twin towers. im pretty sure you can gues what happens now.....

i burst out crying at this point and the way it was edited it could make anyone cry. it then started making me think about that awfull day when people lost family and friends in this horrid tragedy!

i think the writers/directer was very clever the way they put this movie together and it really makes you think about you should live your life to the full as you never know what is going to happen, and love and care about all the people around you as you never know when they will be gone forever!
