So a few weeks back I took a small trip out to a new Primark store which opened up near by, and honestly forgot how impressive some of there products can be! They was just getting into summer season as well as spring clothes plus a lot of season themed decor too. 

24 Fashion Nails - £1
So I didn't pick these up till I was about to pay, as I was waiting in the long line they have those circular pods with small cheap accessories and I noticed these nails. I'm a huge lover of nails but after having a bad time with Acrylics I prefer to use these type (glue on nails), it's easier and simpler to do. I normally buy clear nails, forced to shape them myself, paint them myself and always struggle to find a good nail glue. But for £1, you get 24 nails (different sizes) and x1 nail glue! I found when I put a set on they really did last about 2 weeks before they started to fall off but you can easily just glue back on! The colour (nude like) was easy to paint over with no need to layer on more and more coats.

 Goii Berry & Ginger Candle - £2.50
Now of course I am a huge lover with candles, and I've picked up a few Primark candles previously but this range seemed to be new to me... The scent was strong packed with ginger spices but a fresh sweet berry smell. The combination seemed to be a sugary but spice scent that seemed to fall in love with me instantly, plus it's in a farily large jar. Plus the jar itself is beyond stylish, it looks great on my desk or dressing table, or even out in the garden and once I've finished burning I am for-sure going to be reusing this for brush holding or something of that nature.

3 Pair Cosy Socks - £2.50
With any Primark trip I make, I always have to buy thick fluffy socks. These are just my favorite to wear around the house or after a warm bath/for bed, I always get cold feet and these are just beyond comfy to wear. Plus, what made me go for these was the fact you get three pairs for £2.50, usually they are around £1-£2 each! All three pairs have a different style, light blue, grey and white patterned but honestly who cares? I think they are pretty cute looking anyway.

 Grey Tee-Shirt - £2.50
And I picked up this causal grey tee, it has a small pocket on the left breast area and isn't tight fitted which is perfect to lounge around in. And for that price who cares? The material is soft, not heavy very light-weight and the colour has stayed after a few washes already.

 Overall, I'm glad with my small purchases they are everything someone would probably love too. All at an affordable price range, and all have a need to be used.

Hey guys, so I thought i'd write up a haul post based on all the Lush Kitchen products I managed to get my hands on in March! First off I just want to point out, this took a LOT of work to get these, I was setting alarms to ensure I was awake and on my computer at 8am sharp to order before they sell out. (Yea, some of these sold out in minutes which is just crazy right?)



Karma Bubble Bar - £3.25 each
The first products I ordered was four Karma Bubble Bars, these a completely different model to the old Karma one Lush had. It's very bright and orange, oval shaped and isn't overly huge I would honestly say you could get one luxury bath with this or two more reserved baths. The product itself let a LOT of bubbles out, it was crazy and by far one of the most bubbliest I've seen. It left the water in a orange shade, smelling of a fresh fruity citrus scent mixed with oranges. For the price I would probably buy this again, but it's just something I wanted to add to my collection ( I wouldn't overly rate this but that's just me).


Down The Rabbit Hole - £3.95
I ordered four of these as I had received one just a few days before based off a Lush Oxford Street purchase (you can read about here). This bubble bar is my favorite so far this year, the size is HUGE! I honestly am in love with it, you can easily get two luxury baths out of this or even three or four baths if you like to use less of the product. It's such a colorful product too, the swirl pattern just makes me love it even more. The scent is very fruity reminding me of oranges and raspberries.  Watch an amazing short video I made on Instagram here.


Tweet Bubble Bar - £3.45
When I first heard about these products (which was when they was on sale in the Lush Oxford Street Store), I quickly became obsessed with how cute they looked. All of them was different shapes, different eyes and just adorable in my opinion...When I saw they was on Lush Kitchen I tried my hardest to buy but they instantly sold out, (a lot of people missed out too)... So after some hard work I found some buyers who was willing to part with some and managed to two! They are fresh  orange and citrus scented (very strong too), however they aren't all that large in size so would probably have to use a whole on for a bath. But honestly, I'm too afraid to use them they are so cute!


Which Came First? Bath Bomb - £6.95
When I saw the menu for the Kitchen I was really confused by this product, I didn't see how it would be an exclusive because it had the same name as the pink egg on the store site and in stores which can be bought anytime... But when I saw it I realized it was different! It was a yellow egg, I just had to buy. The scent is sooooo sweet, sugary and beyond tasty smelling I am just in love. Although it seems pricey I love these products because once you've cracked the Egg you have three bath bombs which means three baths! The product itself was simple to crack, I had 0 difficulty and inside I received the bunny (which was also easy to get out it hadn't stuck to the product inside). You can see a video I made cracking this open over on my Instagram here, and watch the video of the bunny Fizzing away with the chick I got from another Which Came First bath bomb here. And a video I made of the egg shell fizzing away on my Instagram here.




Overall, I am in love with all the products and have gotten a huge obsession with Lush Kitchen! Out of all the products I can honestly say that Down The Rabbit Hole bubble bar is by far my favorite, just because of its size, affordability and pretty colours!

Hey guys so I recently got asked to review a speaker from a company called Emie, and want to give them a huge thank you for this opportunity (of course with anything like this I do my own research to make sure its suit to my blog). I discovered this would suit most bloggers lifestyle easy with its simple and efficient decor, it's Bluetooth (hence cable free!) and pretty affordable. Plus there is no mix up with cables or batteries from other countries and its all charged via Micro USB to USB, meaning the product can be charged up from any USB port - EG Laptops, Computers, or extension plugs you can purchase.

 So what is the product? 
This product is a small lightweight "radio", it works from any device which has Bluetooth including phones, tablets, even computers and any OS including Android, Apple and Windows! It's cable free with a battery lasting between 4-6 hours and taking 2 hours to charge from a micro-cable (to the radio) to a USB port. It currently retails for $42.99 shipping WORLD WIDE, something you don't often see. Plus underneath (the bottom of the product) is a small rubber like material to help it grip, preventing sliding or easy to knock over which is a great bonus!



How to use?
You simple just put you'r Bluetooth on the device your wanting to connect and hold the silver circular button on the top down to turn the radio on. It scans & I found it picked the radio up instantly with a connection, connected easily (no problems with disconnecting) and the radio beeps & the small light on top stays on to make it known a device is connected. Then you can simply play any sound from your device and it plays out on the radio, it works with music already added on your phone (or any other device you've connected) and it even worked with Youtube videos playing the sound out and even advert sound clearly. For volume, you spin the silver button anti-clockwise to turn the volume down, or spin it clockwise to turn the volume up.... I must admit the sound can be pretty loud something I wasn't expecting at all! On the side of the product there is a Micro USB slot where you place the cable received in the box, a power input slot (which ins't needed if I'm honest). And a light above which lights up when charging.



You can use this product anywhere, I've found since its lightweight and fairly small in size its easy to be portable and travel like. Using it all around my house, in my room, kitchen, living-room, outdoors when relaxing in the and even at friends! 

Whats included?
In the box, you receive one cable (micro to USB for charging), the radio itself and a manual guide with instructions, help and tips. Pretty much everything you need with no unnecessary accessories.   

Technical Specifications;
- Frequency Range: 20Hz-20kHz
- Power Input: Micro USB, DC IN 5V == 1A
- Battery: 520mAh Li-ion Rechargeable Battery
- Speaker: 1~1.5 inch 2W 4Ω
- Connectivity: Bluetooth 3.0 CSR Chip
- Audio Input: AUX IN (3.5mm)
- Dimensions:  4.41 × 1.18 × 3.09in / 112 × 30 × 78.5mm
- Weight: 0.35lb / 160g

Overall, I'm pretty in love with this product and honestly I'm pretty impressed with the other products Emie have to offer. Everything is so uniquely designed, and would work with any decor scheme! As for this product, I'm really in love and it's perfect for personal use or as a gift idea (affordable and portable). This product is a simple solution to avoid using earphones when you'r wanting to relax.

DISCLAMER: This product was given to trail from the company, however everything I write is 100% honest from my personal thoughts and views on how the product has worked with me.

First off, I just want to give a huge thank you to Simple Candle Co to offering me the chance to review there monthly subscription box. I was super excited to try them out because they are wax melt scents, and who doesn't love fresh scents right? But also because I am already a subscriber to Flamingo Candles which is very similar so it would give me a chance to compare the two.

To give a brief overview, Simple Candle Co is a luxurious home scented candle company who supply all kinds of scents ranging from fruity, food and floral, plus much more. All at an affordable price in various styles including jar candles or wax melts. Plus all the products are created with 100% natural soy wax and everything is handmade. 

The company currently have a monthly subscription theme (Melts Monthly) where you receive eight wax melts, an exclusive 20% discount code you can use on a purchase from the website. For only £10 each month (retail worth of £18.95) including postage, each month the melts you will receive will be different. They will be choose carefully from the company, some old scented, some current and some yet-to-be launched melts.

 Packaging:
To begin with, I was beyond in love with the packaging it had a simple yet such an effective black & white monochrome string tie. Something I've never seen before on parcels from a company, plus it had the Melts Monthly logo sticker on the corner of the box. And an extra sticker securing the cardboard box! (Which seemed to be secure, the packaging box wasn't near to opening at all) Inside was a sheer white piece of tissue paper with a small logo sticker in the center. After opening I found the information card, then a pink and white stripe paper bag with the candles inside! 

Products:
In this months box, there was the eight melts plus an extra bonus melt which I was surprised about because there was two included in the small bag. And an information sheet packed full of details about each product, 20% discount code and a personal message.


Damson Noir - £2 Click here to view online.
I honestly love this melt, its very soft fresh fruity scent with a spice twist. 
"Harmonious notes of plum, berries and cassis indulged in spices of clove and cinnamon."

 Moroccan Dusk -
This scent is again a light soft scent but very strong and for-filled with an orange and sweet smell.
"A sweet citrus burst of mandarin tea enveloped by Moroccan spices & orange blossom."

 Mint Tea -
I must admit this is most likely my least favorite, but it might smell different when burning. It's a very powerful melt packed of a green mint scent but would be most refreshing to burn in the kitchen.
"Founded on a blend of fresh crushed green mint leaves infused with white tea."

 Jasmine & Lily - £2 Click here to view online.
I love this melt, another favorite out of this box purely because of how floral and smooth the scent is, reminding me of fresh lily's. 
"Top notes of Indian jasmine and aromatic lily of the valley, which lead into an alluring and sweet geranium."

 Rhubarb Plum -
Out of all the melts included in this months box, this is 100% my absolute favorite the scent is very powerful and strong where you can instantly smell it without trying. A fresh, fruity scent packed full of a raspberry like sweet rhubarb. 
"A gorgeous, warm, fruity scent of black plum with added rhubarb."

Thai Lime & Mango - £2 Click here to view online.
Another lovable scent, this wax melt is a very light warm smell with a main scent of mango but a very light sweet lime twist indulged. 
"Tropical blend of Indian lemongrass, lemon and Thai lime with a base of melon, pineapple and mango."

 Blueberry Muffin -
If you guys didn't know I'm a fan of all scents but anything sweet or sugary gets a huge love vote every time. This scent is a huge LOVE! It's packed with a sweet sugary candy smell with a powerfully blueberry input, it honestly smells so tasty and delicious words can't describe. 
"A fruity and delicious aroma of freshly baked blueberry muffins."

 Fresh Aloe -
This melt isn't as powerful as the rest, its a very light innocent smell. It's very outdoor like, reminding me of fresh meadows or crisp clear lakes.
"A clean crisp aloe blend with a fresh bergamot on a base of delicate water lily and tuberose."

 Weekend In Paris - Bonus Melt 
First off I just want to say WOW! I love anything shaped differently, out of the ordinary and these melts are shaped one as a butterfly and one as a flower. (super cute) Plus, the packaging is clear which I love because it makes it easy to see but you don't have to worry about wrapping them up after using one. With other products from other companies they wrap them up in a paper tissue (like the usual wax melts) which makes it difficult to store/maintain without damaging. 
The scent is very sweet, fresh and light oriented and honestly reminds me of the sugary candy sweets I got in packets, like Parma Violets.
"A floral blend of Damascan rose, violet, ylang ylang and geranium."  


Overall, I am in love with this box I can't complain about any of the scents some are more powerful smelt than others but all have there bonuses. I love how on the information card it gives a detailed explanation of each melt included, it has simple but rewarding packaging. Plus on the information card I received a hand written personal message, which just helps to prove each everything is handmade! The only few things I would love to see is on the information card, I would love to see each melt identified if they are "exclusive" or "soon-to-be" etc.


Conclusion? I love this box, and overall the company scents I think are very sophisticated and have made a real impression to me. I won't be able to afford to join the subscription right away as I'm too busy with exams, work commitments etc but in a few weeks I will 100% consider joining (be sure to follow me on Twitter & Instagram to keep track). But one thing I would love to see the company offer is the bonus melt Weekend In Paris available on the site, it's something different to what the company offer and could be a real hit to buy!

After the past few boxes I didn't think they could get any better, but oh boy they did! This months box was packed with five exclusive melts, and one preview! I honestly love it when this happens, I feel like as part of the melt crowd we are one of the first to try out new, secret products. Plus, after Easter I loved the bunny melt mainly because it was shaped different! But in this months box I was beyond surprised to see another melt shaped differently.



Raspberry & Salted Caramel - £2

Now I know I've tried this melt before, not sure if I ordered it off the site or if it was in another previous box. But I love the scent, its very sweet sugary raspberry flavored but its packed with a thick soft caramel layer. 

 Sparkling Diamonds - Melt Crowd Exclusive
This melt is hard to describe, the scent is very lightweight power like. It kind of reminds me of baking, fresh flour or like the parma violets sweets.

WILD Dewberry - Melt Crowd Preview
First off I didn't expect this melt, I haven't read up beforehand or saw anything about it. But it kinda reminds me of the B.A.R.E or CIRCUS collection which I am beyond excited about! The packaging is super vibrant, and colourful which is very attractive especially for the summer period. The scent is very strong, reminding me of sherbet or a jar of sweets. 

Spring Bloom - Melt Crowd Exclusive
This melt completely shocked me, I didn't expect a melt to be shaped differently like the Easter box. But this melt is shaped like a flower, with a pink detail which I love it's perfect for a "spring" box. It's scent is very floral but not the fresh strong type, it's more of a light sweet floral smell. 


English Pear & Freesia - Melt Crowd Exclusive
This scent is very strong, its a fresh outdoor grass like smell which is packed of fresh pear and fruits. 

 Strawberry Cream Tea - £2
I'm in love with this melt, another favorite added to my list. The scent is very cream, milky oriented but has a light strawberry sauce flavor. It kind of reminds me of a strawberry sundae you get which is beyond tasty! 

 April Showers - Melt Crowd Exclusive
This melt is probably the most different of this months box, the scent is very fresh, clean and pure floral scented. I would honestly say its probably my least favorite of the month, probably because the scent isn't all appealing to me. It's more of a clean, bathroom outdoor type scent where as the others are more kitchen, sugary food like scents.

 Sweet Peanuts - Melt Crowd Exclusive 
Oh my, out of all the melts in this months box this is my favorite of them all. It's scent is packed full of sugary, sweet peanut like smell which instantly reminds me of peanut butter! I am honestly so gutted this is an exclusive and can only pray it makes a return someday because this might be an all round favorite.

Overall, I'm in love with this months box its very food oriented scents and I was completely shocked with the Spring Bloom melt shape. And all I can do is hope there is more WILD scents to add to the collection. Of course, I love how many exclusives we have been given but all I can do is hope some make a return in the future because I've fallen in love with A LOT of this months melts.
