Right now on QVC, Timebomb has this incredible 'Gift of Glow' Collection on offer for just £47.68 which is an incredible saving of over £159 and the entire collection is described as featuring "Time Bomb’s most revered “Illuminati” to re-ignite your skin’s radiance…and spark your spirit" with five incredible products.

The first product is the Complexion Cocktail with a shot of B12 (100ml) -  When you’re tired it shows on your face. Your skin looks dull, lifeless…a little slack. Loaded with B Vitamins plus two types of Hyaluronic Acid, this cocktail absorbs instantly to restore the look of brighter, tighter fresh, glowing skin. I am literally slapping this on!  I used this a few years ago and really liked it, so am glad to have it back in my stash because I am currently suffering with the worlds heaviest cold and chest infection, so my whole body feels like absolute death.


Up next comes the NEW Divine Intervention Glow Oil (30ml) - From the targeted essentials collection, this is said to bring the offering of precious elements, oils and extracts to calm, smooth and awaken your skin’s inner incandescence. This radical formula blends ancient sacred oils which include Frankincense and Myrrh, with the modernity of Cannabis Sativa oil. It also contains Pomegranate, Tsubaki, and Rice Bran oils are used religiously in the East to achieve a smoother, brighter skin tone.  I have only been using this for a few days but I can see already that it is an incredible oil and one I am looking forward to getting to know.

If it is the eyes which are proving problematic them we have the Smart Balm Eye Cream (15ml) - Described as being The all-round ‘eye-lighter’ it is super moisturising as well as being peptide-rich and is referred to as being the “eight hours of sleep in a tube”. It works to target puffiness, shadows, lines and crow’s feet for a smoother, firmer, less recessed-looking eye to leave them looking bigger, brighter…refreshed and well-rested. Other ingredients include Borage Oil which is recognised for its anti-aging properties, steeps skin with moisture, Licorice extract which targets dark circles and Hydrolized Cornstarch which produces an immediate tightening, lifting effect.  I am quite picky when it comes to eye creams because I don't want anything that is too thick or has too much of a perfumed scent to it, or it irritates my skin, this is neither of those and it feels lovely and soothing.



Having a night cream within my own skincare regime is important and for Timebomb they have the Flashback Night Cream (45ml) - Described as being a product to 'restore your glow (in the dark) while you sleep' it is said that this unique overnight moisturiser acts like a paraffin wax treatment to plump the skin. It forms a light shea butter and rice bran waxy barrier that locks in a slew of nourishing, hydrating actives: phytolipids, antioxidants, hyaluronic acids and vitamins.  I like this isn't a cream which is overly thick and one which absorbs really quickly.


The final product within this collection is the Glory Days Day Cream (100ml) - This cream is described as being the four-way glow-getter 4-in-1 multi-tasker.  Not only does it moisturise but it also primes, tightens and brightens. It uses a high concentration of Borage Oil,  plus a powerful blend of Glucose and White Flower Oils and Hyaluronic Acid all of which come together to moisturise and plump up fine lines, and micro-reflective particles catch the light for even surface tone with all over glow.  As with the night cream, this is a lovely texture and one which abosrbs quickly without leaving a trace on the skin.

This is an absolutely incredible bargain to be had over on QVC and if you are stuck for those last minute gifts and you know someone who loves skincare, then this more than ticks those boxes!

Mor Boutique Marshmallow Deluxe Candle

Whatever the weather, I usually have a candle alight in whichever room of the house I am in.  In the summer I tend to opt for fresh clean scents, especially something citrus like.  In the winter I like the warmer scents and toward Christmas, out come the Cinnamon and Eucalyptus and maybe even Fresh Balsam.  For me, a candle is all about winding down and relaxing, more so in the winter it is a time to be cosy, snuggle up under a blanket watching a favourite film or devouring a book. 


From MOR Boutique, I have stepped away from the norm when it comes to my candle choices and have been trying the luxurious Marshmallow Deluxe Soy Candle (£28.00). Described as being "A luxury home fragrance, this exquisite candle features a black hobnail glass vessel, pink Soy Wax and is embellished with a Marshmallow tassel. Perfect to perfume the air with a signature scent and add style to any space" and it looks just stunning from its floral outer box packaging to the inner glass vessel.

The MOR Boutique Marshmallow Deluxe Soy Candle is formulated with a soy wax blend and a cotton wick, the candle is designed to burn for up to 45 hours. When it comes to the scent of a candle, as I have said, I tend to have different preferences for different times of the year.  This fragrance is described as being a feminine Marshmallow scent and it is absolutely lovely, collectively orchestrated with Jasmine Flower and Vanilla Musk, whilst Sugar Dipped Rose Petals, White Carnation and Cotton Candy form a sweet perfume. As soon as the lid is removed from the glass vessel, the fragrance is incredibly noticeable and after a few hours of burning, it becomes more so, with the scent of Jasmine Flower and Cotton Candy (think Snow Fairy) being particularly strong.


If you are looking for a present that has the wow factor and for someone who loves candles, then this one very much ticks those boxes from the black hobnail glass vessel to the marshmallow coloured tassel and of course not forgetting the pink soy wax itself.  If you want something even more delicate then this MOR Marshmallow Fragrant Tea Cup Candle is equally divine.

MOR Snow Gardenia Little Luxuries

MOR is a bath, Body and Lifestyle brand from Melbourne Australia and there is something quite luxe about the whole range.  If you are still looking for stocking fillers which look like they should be a lot more expensive than they are, then MOR, who are available at Feelunique is a brand to be looking at.
MOR-Boutique-Little-Luxuries
These two products from their Little Luxuries Collection are simply divine with fragrances to match and they include Snow Gardenia, Blood Orange, Belladonna, Pomegranate, Bohemienne and Marshmellow, all of which are quite exotic sounding and they come in a choice of four different products - a Body Butter, Perfume Oil, Hand cream and a Soapette.
Drift into the dreamy world of Little Luxuries, where petite treasures leave you smitten with sweet cravings. Containing luxurious formulations and heavenly scents will enliven your mood anywhere, anytime.
The two products from the MOR Snow Gardenia Little Luxuries collection and MOR describe their Snow Gardenia fragrance as being "Like a stroll in a secret garden Blooming with beautiful Bergamot, snow white Gardenia and Angelica, ambrosial Juniper Berries entwine with Sandalwood, Vanilla, Ylang Ylang and Amber. Classic and feminine, this floral fragrance will allure and fascinate your sense" and it is one of those fragrances which jump out right at you as soon as you open up the outer packaging.

The first product I was drawn too is the MOR Snow Gardenia Little Luxuries Soapette (£6). It is housed inside a collectable tin and is wrapped inside the most beautiful tissue paper. 
MOR-Boutique-Little-Luxuries-Soapette
Each Soapette is triple milled to ensure it produces a much more luxurious lather and each one:
  • Is a vegetable-based Soap
  • Contains both Shea Butter and moisturising Vitamin E
  • Is Paraben and Sulphate free
  • Has not been tested on animal
Given its size and the way in which it comes packaged, it is also perfect for travelling with as it just slots into your wash bag and doesn't chip and leave soap dust everywhere.

The second product is the MOR Snow Gardenia Little Luxuries Body Butter (£10) and it is described as having a light texture which is perfect for all skin types.  

What I like about the cream is how quickly it absorbs into the skin and is not at all greasy, once it has disappeared, all it leaves behind is the delicious Snow Gardenia scent which within this cream is slightly stronger than that of the soap.  Again this cream:
  • Contains Shea Butter for superior moisture, Avocado, Olive, Rosehip, Sesame & Wheat Germ Oil moisturises, hydrates & rejuvenates the skin
  • Contains Vitamins A, C & E improves the skin's softness, reduces the signs of ageing & reinvigorates tired skin
  • It is Paraben & Sulphate free
  • Is not tested on animals
Again, like the soap, this Body Butter is the perfect travel-friendly size and because the tub within which the cream sits is made of plastic, it is quite durable too.
MOR-Boutique-Little-Luxuries-Body-Butter


This is my first introduction to MOR as a brand and they are just lovely.  MOR describe themselves as being creators of beautifully crafted bath, body and lifestyle luxuries for those seeking indulgent escapes from the everyday. Embarking on our sensory journey in 2001 from Australia’s culture capital Melbourne, we continue to awaken senses worldwide with collections inspired by tales of ancient civilizations, bygone eras, travel and art. Perfumed with signature scents and formulated with selected natural ingredients, each collection evokes a multi-sensory experience to transform your bathing routine into an indulgent daily ritual.
