24 Days of Christmas with Liz Earle

The perfect Advent Calender arrived on my doorstep. 24 mini sizes of Liz Earle Skin treats. My skin should be glowing by xmas. The first 3 doors contained the fabulous Cleanse and polish, Skin tonic and moisturiser. Who needs chocolate when you can have this instead. Its not cheap retailing at £100 but if you need a treat and a pick me up then its ideal. Still available and if you get one now you get to open the first few days all at once. What more could a girl ask for. Available online here

Beautiful Bubbles!

Beautiful Bubbles is a company that makes hand made Bath & Body products, run by the lovely Claire. A few weeks ago we had a little swap of products and i am thrilled with the gorgeous goodies she sent me.

I was so excited when my box arrived that i ripped it open immediately. I always feel like a kid at xmas when new products arrive.

Excuse the rubbish photo but as i said i just couldn't wait and had to open my box straight away. I could smell the products inside as i opened up the box and was greeted with a lovely big mix of Grapefruit and sugarcane bath bomb, Scrub & Room spray. Two handmade cold process soap slices and this amazingly cute snowman soap.

 

I love the pretty soap slices they both smell great and look beautiful. I have them ear marked for my downstairs bathroom so when people come to the house they can wash there hands with a real bar of handmade soap.

The snowman soap is just adorable. As soon as my 4 year old saw it he tried to whisk it away so Ive promised to share it with him lol. Priced at £4.50 Frosty the snowman would make a brilliant gift or stocking filler that's hand made and really unique. It comes wrapped and tied with ribbon which finishes it off perfectly.

 

The first thing that hit me when i opened the packaging was the beautiful fragrance. Its described as a luscious fruity wood fragrance with top notes of bergamot and rose. Sweet rich Blackberries, dry leaves, with an amber cinnamon blend and a hint of peppermint. Its a beautiful fresh light clean smell that is really xmassy.

Pretty and glistening it reminds me of a snowy day crisp, fresh and cool.

Now i have been using the snowman soap for a week and a half and it is fabulous it lathers really well and leaves skin beautiful and soft. Pop over to Beautiful Bubbles and have a look for yourself at all her gorgeous handmade goodies here xxx
