B&M Autumnal Candles Reviewed!

Hey beaut's!

Its no surprise that I like a candle or 50 at this time of the year, however being in the UK I feel like we sometimes miss out on some of the amazing candle scents that you can get from places such as Bath and Body Works, however trusty ole B&M make some pretty epic and affordable Bath and Body Works candle dupes so when I was in store recently I decided to pick a couple up to try. There was a few differences I noticed this year, firstly I'm pretty sure all three I bought are new scents as I never saw them last year (correct me if I'm wrong lol), secondly they now have gorgeous hammered copper lids and thirdly they where £2.99 last year and this year they £3.99 so theres been a slight increase in the price. Anywhoooo onto the scents...

Cinnamon Sugared Doughnut is definitely my favourite out of the three I bought, the scent throw is really good and it smells exactly like what it says on the jar, subtle cinnamon, sugary sweetness and vanilla doughnuts, its pretty immense and although theres a lot of sweetness going on it isn't sickly at all, I love it!

Spiced Pomegranate Cider is more subtle that I imaged, the scent throw is very minimal in fact it smells a lot stronger if you just sit sniffing the wax when it's not alight. When it is lit I do get light spicy scents and warm berry vibes but as I said this one isn't as strong as I hoped.

Pumpkin Waffles....arhhh doesn't that just sound amazing! This one has a good scent throw, it's not strong or overpowering but it does fill the house with its scent, I get pumpkin, vanilla, maple syrup and nutmeg fragrances from this one which make me feel so cosy and autumnal, its lovely!

For £3.99 each you really cant fault these candles, they look cute, smell great without being too overpowering, their double wicked and burn evenly so theres no wasted wax and have up to 25 hours burn time, their such good value for money.

Have you picked up any of the B&M Bath and Body Works candle dupes beaut's? Which would you recommend? I'd love to know.

Blogmas Day 3 - £3 B&M Christmas Candles Reviewed

Hey beaut's!

Its Blogmas day three and today I have a candle review for you all. Its no surprise that I like a candle or 50 at this time of the year ha ha, however being in the UK I feel like we sometimes miss out on some of the amazing candle scents that you can get from places such as Bath and Body Works, however recently B&M's £2.99 candles have been taking over the blogasphere and have been named the ultimate Bath and Body Works candle dupes, so I decided to take myself off to B&M and check those bad boys out. I ended up buying two of their Christmas candles quite some time ago and I have been patiently waiting until I put my Christmas decorations up to burn them and since we put our decorations up last week I've finally had them lit and have been loving them.

The B&M Christmas candle collection consists of quite a few different scents but I decided on Vanilla Snowflake and Iced Candy. The candles come in large, heavy glass jars which you can definitely reuse once the candles have burnt down, I always keep mine for makeup brushes or cotton buds, and they both come with lightweight metal lids with a snowflake embossed into it which certainly gives them even more of a Bath and Body works vibe. The candles have two wicks which is so good because they burn evenly and don't leave any wasted wax around the sides of the jars.

The first candle out of the two that I lit straight away was Vanilla Snowflake, now I love my vanilla, sugary foodie scents and this one smells divine just like a sugar cookie with icing on, oh my god it's gorgeous, it has a medium scent throw which isn't overpowering or sickly despite being sweet and lingers in the house for a good while even after blowing it out. Then we have Iced Candy, this one was a lot different to what I was expecting, with the name Iced Candy I was thinking it would be really sweet but actually it reminds me a lot of Yankee Candles Winter Glow as it's quite fresh and frost bitten with the ever so slight hint of sweetness, it really is nice and more Christmassy than Vanilla Snowflake. For £2.99 each you really cant fault these candles, they look cute, smell great without being too overpowering, their festive and have up to 25 hours burn time, their such good value for money.

£3 B&M Halloween Candles Reviewed

Hey beaut's!

Its no surprise that I like a candle or 50 at this time of the year ha ha, however being in the UK I feel like we sometimes miss out on some of the amazing candle scents that you can get from places such as Bath and Body Works, however recently B&M's £2.99 candles have been taking over the blogasphere and have been named the ultimate Bath and Body Works candle dupes, so I decided to take myself off to B&M and check those bad boys out, unfortunately for me all of the autumnal dupes had sold out, however I did manage to pick up a couple of the Halloween Candles and a couple of the Christmas candles woohoo.

The B&M Halloween collection actually consists of four different scents but there was only two scents left for me to choose from so I decided to pick them both up to try. The candles come in large, heavy glass jars which you can definitely reuse once the candles have burnt down, I always keep mine for makeup brushes or cotton buds. The candle have two wicks which is so good because they burn evenly and don't leave any wasted wax around the sides of the jars.

The first candle out of the two that I lit straight away was Pumpkin Spiced Cheesecake, now I will admit in the shop I didn't really get much of a scent out of either of the candles so everything rested on getting them home to try and thank goodness they actually smell good once you burn them. Pumpkin Spiced Cheesecake has subtle hints of cinnamon and vanilla running through it with the odd dash of pumpkin here and there, I love my sweet, foodie scents so this ticked all the boxes for me and the scent throw did fill my entire house despite being quite delicate. Then we have Vanilla Pumpkin, this one is actually less of the pumpkin and more of the vanilla, so if you love vanilla frosting or vanilla cake kind of smells in candles then this one will be for you!
