I am a sucker for lovely smelly things! I popped in to a little town called Syston, in Leicestershire, yesterday morning and came across the Paper Moon Home & Gift shop. The back walls of the shop were adorned with shelves of many colourful Yankee Candles!!! Being indecisive as usual, I spent ages just opening all the little jarred candles and smelling them all! I finally settled on getting the Strawberry Buttercream jarred candle, the Black Cherry sampler candle, and the Vanilla Cupcake wax tart (which you use on an tart/oil burner). Last night I lit the jarred candle and burned the wax tart next to each other for a lovely scent of Vanilla Cupcakes WITH Strawberry Buttercream!! The bedroom smelt INCREDIBLE!!! :)
You can buy Yankee Candles Online at www.yankee.co.uk or most department stores.
I have been loving the bath and shower gels by The Little Bubble Co (used to be called The Pink Cow). Jess first got me in to these as she had raved about how she had found an amazing shower gel that smelt like Murray Mints! She showed me it in Boots and I smelt it and fell in love! Since then I have also indulged in the Coconut Creme shower gel and the Vanilla Biscuit Scrub. The Strawberry Sundae shower gel is next on my list! :) What's also super great about them is that they don't test on animals, they are suitable for vegetarians, they contain no parabens and the fragrance is allergen free! HURRAY!! The bottles also have cute and quirky little phrases on them. Search for them in Boots to find out what! :)
Now I couldn't do a post about lovely smelly things without mentioning LUSH!! It's the shop that you always smell before you see! The scent draws you in and then..BAM!! You're amongst a wonderland full of amazing smells and beautiful colours! Bubbles are blown, hands are massaged, shower jellies jiggle, and bath bombs fizz and pop! :)
My current favourites to indulge in the bath with are Ro's Argan Body Conditioner and the Rose Jam Bubbleroons for a Rocelicious Bath Time!! :) The smell is a beautiful balance of sweetness and floral and they leave your skin feeling super silky and beautifully moisturised with a heavenly rose scent that lasts ages!
