Hey guys! As Easter is moving closer and closer towards us I managed to get my hands on the new Yankee Candle 3 melt egg gift set retailing at £7.99 (click here to view online). It's a small plastic egg with Yankee logo text & jelly beans with a cute ribbon at the top with a tag attached giving info on the three melts inside.

It slides apart in half with three melts inside including; with each melt burning up to 8 hours!

 1. Jelly Bean
I love this scent, after purchasing the large jar last year I was super excited to see this in a melt form! It's bursting smell is full of sugary sweet candy like scents, the only down side is I'm super disappointed you can't buy this separate. The only size available separate and not in a gift set is a large jar for £21.99 (click here to view online).

 2. Summer Scoop
This melt retails for £1.49 in store (click here to view online), another tasty scent full of sugary fresh strawberry smells. It does live up to the name in regards to scents, one that gets me hungry for sure!

 3. Cappuccino Truffle
And again, this melt currently retails for £1.49 in store (click here to view online). It's scent is very chocolate flavored packed with the smell of strong dark coffee! One of my favorite delicious scents from Yankee!

Overall I am slightly disappointed with the product, as two of the melts retail together at £2.98 meaning the rest of the price (£5.01) was funded on the jelly bean melt (which I do understand is rare & exclusive) plus the egg packaging... Slightly overpriced in my opinion.. I would of much rather receive two limited edition exclusive melts (which I have noticed Yankee's site state you receive Bunny Cake as well as Jelly Bean, I have contacted them to query this as it seems unfair!). Thank you for reading, let me know your thoughts?X

So on boxing day me and my mum hit the sales, first off my main aim was to go to Lush! I've never been on boxing day and wanted to stock up of supplies, I found out the store opened at 11am but we arrived about 10:30 and already people where queuing to get in the store! So of course, we joined the line... Just before 11am arrived staff members came out with chocolates and each person got a raffle ticket to hand in as a safety procedure. 



When we got in the store, ALL Christmas themed products where 50% off there original price. This included gift sets, bath products, skin products etc etc! I must admit I went a little crazy spending just under £60 in total & will be trying to write about ALL of them over the next few weeks! The first product was this gift set 'Christmas bathtime favorites', packed of 10 bath bombs which originally retails at £39.95 but of course with the 50% off it was only £19.98. 

The box is super cute, thick cardboard with soft red velvet ribbon tied at the top with two green material cotton handles. Inside it was filled with all the following bath bombs;

 Cinders Bath Bomb 100g
This bath bomb is SUPER cute looking, I must admit I haven't tried it yet but it smells deliscous.

 Father Christmas 200g
This bath bomb is a huge 200g which I was shocked about, it smells sugary and tasty but isn't all that "colourful" so again, I'm interested to try it out and see what colour the water turns.

 Butterbear 75g
I've used the butterbear bath bomb before which you can read HERE.

 Avobath 180g
Another product I'm yet to use but it smells fresh and clean scent  which I'm super excited to try out!


Luxury Lush Pud 200g
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this bath bomb, first because its a huge 200g but also because its packed of colour. When it fizzes away it brings so much life to the water with a hint of sparkle and smells delicous.

Frozen 200g
I haven't tried this bath bomb yet but it smells minty, and gives a beautiful colour from what I've seen on social media.

 Golden Wonder 200g
I know this bath bomb says 200g but I seriously cannot get over how large this bath bomb is! It is generally HUGE, it smells so good too but I'm yet to try this product so I'm excited to see its water changing colour.


Yoh Nog 200g
This bath bomb is another tasty scented product, that smells SOOO sugary and sweet plus its a huge 200g size!

 The Experimenter 180g
I have already wrote about this bath bomb which you can read HERE, all I can say is I LOVE this product and so glad it's among these "Christmas" products to mix it up!

 Think Pink 90g
Of course I am excited for this bath bomb, who wouldn't?! This is the classic favorite for most people who shop at Lush, purely because it's pink? It smells so good? AND it has cute little flowers! I've already wrote about this product HERE 

 Overall, I am in love with this gift set because it's full of bath bombs which are the products I mostly use! Plush it was half price!!! As you can see I'm yet to try some of the products but wanted to write about it as soon as possible, be sure to follow me on Snapchat / Twitter / Instagram to hear my thoughts on some of the products I'm yet to use over the next coming weeks!X

As part of the Lush Halloween range they offered a super glittery sparkle pumpkin bubble bar which had a small twig in the center. I thought this was super cute to begin with as I loved it was all glittery, although when you pick it up it got glitter EVERYWHERE! And I mean everywhere, this was probably one of the messiest bubble bars I'ved used so far it did get all over my clothes, fingers AND you have to rinse out the bath once you've used as it leaves a glitter stain in the bath tub!


I used half of this for one bath, and the other half for another time - Usually with bubble bars I find it easy to break up but with this one it was hard, I found it stiff to break into two from the center and ended up pulling sides of it apart for one bath then the center for another. After crumbling under warm water in my bath it instantly gave off a orange colour with the glitter falling into the water. It let out small cute bubbles and left the water with a shimmer of glitter (which on the bonus didn't stick to my skin!!), it smelt very fruity and reminded me a little of juices you can buy like lime - A fresh scent, but once I crumbled into the water I did notice it lost its smell a little.

This perfume was bought of the Benefit website during January, it came in a unique box which lid lifted and the front fell down. When I first got this bottle I was shocked by the size, I was expecting it to be bigger, although this is the 30ml size... However, I do admit the product has lasted, I use about two pumps for my neck & one for my wrists. The smell is very summer like, raspberry, outdoor floral like smell. (This is my favorite of all Benefit perfumes.)

Yankee - " Lilac Blossom "

 This candle was bought in the Yankee Spring collection, in the mothers day gift set off QVC. This candle is the votive size, it smells very floral similar to blossom and the smell is very strong and noticeable.
