New From Patisserie De Bain

Anyone who reads my blog will know what a fan I am of Patisserie De Bain with their mouth-watering product scents which have appeared on many occasions. The little sister of Rose &Co. whom you might recognise from their iconic Rose Petal Salve, Patisserie De Bain has been around since 2007 and now boasts a catalogue of products which are described as being a 'refreshing splash of sweetness, fun and bright pastels to liven up any bathroom or dressing table'. Now I have got my hands on the brand new hand cream trio and they are just divine.

So the trio of new hand creams feature three new scents which are Rhubarb & Custard, Blackcurrant & Apricot Coullis and finally Raspberry Roulade. All of these scents already take me back to my childhood and again each hand cream has really cute packaging.

So starting with Raspberry Roulade , this hand cream is incredibly fruity and the cream is bright pink in colour and on the skin, it just sinks in really quickly leaving behind the sweet scent of Raspberry which reminds me of Summer Pudding.

Next is Blackcurrant & Apricot Coulis and the scent of this one if a perfect mixture of both the Blackcurrant and the Apricot with the Apricot scent just being sightly more dominant and reminding me of that Apricot Scrub I think everyone I know used back in the day. 

Again the cream is quite thick but sinks onto and then into the skin with minimum effort leaving behind soft smooth hands.

Finally we have the Rhubarb & Custard hand cream and it is my favourite of the three. 

If you are a fan of the Rhubard and Custard boiled sweets then this is that scent in a cream and it is just absolutely stunning, I cannot get enough of it.

These handcreams contain the nourishing and gentle shea butter and glycerine which helps to not only moisturise skin but to also leave hands soft and smooth. Each hand cream comes in a 50ml tube and are all available on roseandcompany.com website priced at £3.99 each.

From now onwards a 50p donation will be given to the Rays of Sunshine organisation from the sale of any Patisserie De Bain product sold through their website. Their target is to raise £10,000 by the end of the year which you can read about here.

Which new scent do you like the sound of?

Spending the day at Liverpool ONE #AtLiverpoolOne

Living in London ive got some of the worlds best shops on my doorstep but that doesn't mean I don't want to go elsewhere to see what the UK has to offer. Liverpool ONE is one of Europe’s leading retail and leisure destinations and it can be found right in the centre of Liverpool. It has over 170 shops but sometimes there is more to a place than shops. Liverpool One Restaurants has everything from casual to fine dining and with it comes food from right across the globe including American, Brazilian, Caribbean, French, Italian, Japanese and Thai to name just a few of those options.

Whether you’d prefer to walk, drive, take public transport or if you’re travelling via coach Liverpool One meets the needs of everyone and as it is split across six districts - Hanover Lane, Peter Street, The Tereace, Paradise Street, Chavasse Par and South John Street. Each district has something different to offer, for example Hanover Street has some of the City's most sought after bars and restaurants, if you have children then Chavasse Park is somewhere you should be looking at with activities such as Nature Trails and the chance to learn all about the wildlife and the flora and fauna.
