Crabtree & Evelyn Pamper Night Essentials

Hey beaut's!

There's nothing better than when you've had a long day at work (or an awful day at work) than coming home and having a nice chilled out pamper night. I must admit pamper nights are something I like to indulge in regularly, I love lighting every candle I can find, relax in the tub with a face mask on whilst scoffing some choccies, it's pure bliss...Crabtree & Evelyn have some gorgeous products and candles that will suit any pamper night down to the ground, so today I thought I'd share a couple I've been giving a whirl recently.
Pamper nights have to start with a soak in the tub, this is an essential for me as it just helps me relax and unwind and with Crabtree & Evelyn's Goat milk & Oak Soothing Bath Milk* (£28.00) it feels like such a treat too. The Bath Milk itself is super soft and gentle - perfect for dry/sensitive types like myself, it contains Oat Kernel Oil and Vitamin E which deeply condition and nourish the skin leaving it so soft and it smells so spa-like too, I love it!  
I'm a huge candle lover, not only do I love the fact they make my house smell amazing but they make everything seem so cosy don't they...Crabtree & Evelyn's candles are gorgeous, I had one at Christmas and wow I was impressed and their City Zen Candle* (£42.00) is equally as good. City Zen is definitely an uplifting yet warming candle, it contains ginger flower, cardamon, clove and black pepper but also has a zesty vibe to it! One thing I will say about Crabtree & Evelyn's candles is that the scent throw is incredible, their candles are quite strong so if your after something subtle these wont be for you but if you like a candle that will blow your socks off then City Zen will be perfect! 
If your looking for more of an instant pick me up then the La Source Refreshing Body Mist* (£16.00) is definitely worth a try. This sort of product was totally new to me, I've never tried any body mist before which isn't for fragrance purposes, instead Crabtree & Evelyn's offering has been designed to revitalise the body when it's tired, achy and feeling heavy. I personally like to use this body mist in the mornings when I wake up, it has a fresh peppermint scent which really gives me the boost that I need as well as nourishing qualities that soften my skin, it's different but I love it!

Crabtree & Evelyn Christmas Gift's Reviewed!

Hey beaut's!

Christmas is getting so close now I can almost smell it he he and I've got some more Christmas gift ideas for you today from Crabtree & Evelyn. I love Crabtree & Evelyn because not only do they do lots of gorgeous beauty gifts in some incredible scents but they also have foodie bits and pieces and even some lovely candles and reed defusers so theres certainly something to suit most on their website which I love, you can't beat getting lots of presents sorted at once can you.
Even though I've tried quite a few products by Crabtree & Evelyn before I was yet to try one of their candles so I had no idea what to expect. I've been burning their Noël Candle* and wow...it's honestly incredible! Not only does the heavy gold glass jar look super luxurious but the scent is seriously festive, it contains notes of fir tree branches studded with tangy citrus zest and mulled spices, it's literally Christmas in a candle. The scent throw is seriously good too, just as good as a Yankee Candle if not better, and at £16.00 it isn't too expensive for a decent sized candle.
The Pomegranate & Argan Oil Shower Bauble* (£12.00) is such a lovely stocking stuffer, not only is the design of it being an actual bauble super cute but it smells incredibly good too with juicy sweet notes of pomegranate coupled with fresh fig leaves, mmm beaut! 


I've always been a HUGE fan of Crabtree & Evelyn's hand creams because they work wonders for me and really nourish my hands when their at their worst so I would highly recommend this Winter Hand Trilogy Cracker* (£12.00). The cracker includes three little 10ml hand creams perfect for popping into your handbag all in super seasonal scents, theres White Cardamon, my favourite Red Berry and Fir and Frosted Spicewood. I think this cracker would make a perfect gift or you could buy a few and put them on the Christmas table instead of the generic crackers.

Crabtree & Evelyn's NEW Pomegranate & Argan Oil Range

Hey beaut's!

Keeping my body nourished is a must for me, I have dry skin so theres nothing my skin loves more than a huge dose of moisture and Crabtree & Evelyn's NEW Pomegranate & Argan Oil Range has been doing just that! Crabtree & Evelyn actually have six new naturally derived ranges too choose from, each one with a different scent and purpose, the Pomegranate & Argan Oil Range is specially designed to nourish so I knew straight away it would be right up my street. Theres 9 moisturising goodies to choose from in the Pomegranate & Argan Oil Range, I've been giving the Body Cream, Body Smoother and the Hand Therapy a whirl and the results so far have been amazing!
The Pomegranate & Argan Oil Body Smoother* (£20.00) is one of my favourites out of the collection, I'm such a sucker for a good body scrub and this one is so nice and feels super luxurious! The Body Smoother feels more like a thick cream with scrubby bit's within in it than a harsh scrub, it gently exfoliates and polishes my skin whilst I'm in the shower and conditions at the same time, leaving me with super soft, supple skin and theres not any dry flakiness in sight, I love it. I'd definitely recommend this if you have slightly sensitive skin because it works in more of a gentle way.
After using the Body Smoother in the bath or shower I always follow it up with the Pomegranate & Argan Oil Body Cream* (£28.00), this is the thickest body cream I've ever used and it's so deeply moisturising, I've honestly never tried anything so moisturising so if your a dry skinned gal like me then you HAVE to give this one a whirl. Because the formula of this body cream is so thick I find a little goes a long way and it seems to melt into the skin so quickly and never leaves a sticky residue thank goodness. I also have to add the scent of this collection is gorgeous, they all have warm fruity notes of orange, juicy pomegranate and sweet fig with the heat of ginger and black pepper spice, they all work so well together and smell so good.
I seem to go through hand cream like it's going out of fashion and I'm nearly half way through my Pomegranate & Argan Oil Hand Therapy* (£18.00) so as you can tell I love it!  The hand cream itself is white with a creamy consistency, it's enriched with Shea Butter, Ceramide and Moroccan Argan Oil which together make this a super moisturising hand cream. What I love about this hand cream is that it doesn't take long at all to soak into my hands, just like the body cream it literally melts into my skin and theres no sticky residue afterwards either, that's a huge pet hate of mine and so many hand creams leave my hands tacky after application so I'm so happy I don't have that problem with this one.

I feel like this range is so good to transition from Summer into the Autumn/Winter months because the scent is fruity but also warm and spicy, it's also going to be so so nourishing in the cooler months, overall I'm a fan!

Crabtree & Evelyn La Source Body Scrub Review



Hey beaut's!

I love a good ole body scrub, especially at this time of year when the weather's hopefully going to get a bit warmer and you want your skin to look in tip top condition for little summer dresses and shorts, so when I heard that Crabtree & Evelyn had released a new scrub in their new range 'La Source' I couldn't wait to give it a whirl.

The Crabtree & Evelyn La Source Exfoliating Body Scrub* is a creamy and refreshing scrub that features a marine blend of green seaweed extract and purifying brown algae extract to reawaken your skin, whilst the added pumice and sunflower wax beads exfoliate, polish and soften. The scrub itself is an aqua blue colour and is crammed full of grainy scrubby bits which work really well, it's not super abrasive where it slightly hurts to use but is abrasive enough to exfoliate the skin well and buff off any dry skin or fake tan. The scent of the scrub is very clean, crisp and contains refreshing aquatic notes, I also get a minty vibe and when I use it it's super cooling on the skin, a great one to use in the summer months or whilst away on holiday for sure. 
Overall I really loved this scrub, it exfoliates my skin really well leaving it velvety smooth and smelling super fresh and clean, and its perfectly abrasive enough for me, I do have areas of skin that are more sensitive than others so real harsh scrubs aren't for me however this one is great for my skin and doesn't irritate me at all, so if your a bit of a senstaive soul like me this might be a good one to try.

You can find the Crabtree & Evelyn La Source Body Scrub for £20.00 HERE.

Valentines with Crabtree & Evelyn - Hand Therapy Review

Hey beaut's!

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner (yikes) and with that Crabtree & Evelyn have not only got lots of gorgeous beauty bits and pieces to choose from that would be perfect for Valentines Day (and Mother's Day actually) but.... they have also just launched some NEW Limited Edition Rose and White Chocolate Biscuits - yum, I mean who can say no to beauty and biscuits, its the perfect combo he he!
I've been giving three of the Crabtree & Evelyn Ultra- Moisturising Hand Therapy Hand Creams a whirl recently and have really been enjoying them - which is really saying something because I'm really fussy when it comes to hand cream, not only do they have to smell nice but they have to deeply moisturise my hands too and not leave my skin feeling super greasy and these three tick all the boxes for me. Each hand cream is formulated with a nourishing blend of macadamia nut oil and Shea butter which together create such a soothing, moisturising hand cream that doesn't leave my hands sticky or greasy and the scents you can choose from are endless. I have Rosewater* which smells just like pink roses, Pear and Pink Magnolia* which is super fresh, it's juicy because of the pear and delicately floral because of the pink magnolia and lastly Evelyn Rose* which again smells just like fresh pink roses but also has a slight peach twist. All smell so pretty and feminine and the scent actually lasts hours on my hands, just like I've sprayed perfume on them. All of the 25g hand creams are £6.00 each but larger sizes are available too if you really want to splash out.
The Crabtree & Evelyn Limited Edition Rose and White Chocolate Biscuits* (£5.00) make me very happy he he, I'm such a foodie with a large sweet tooth so as you can imagine these didn't  last very long. These all butter 'shortbread style' biscuits are made with elegant crystallised rose petals and delicious pieces of white chocolate, their so tasty and would be a hit with anyone with a sweet tooth.

Have you tried any of the Crabtree & Evelyn Hand Creams beaut's? I'd love to know your thoughts?
