Arran Sense of Scotland Hot Toddy 30cl Candle

One thing I love about this time of year is candles, whilst I do burn them all year round, there is something more snug and cosy about the long dark nights and a candle o two being lit. The newest candle to my collection is from Arran Sense of Scotland with Hot Toddy which is part of their Christmas collection.

Arran, if you weren’t aware, have the most amazing collection of products from soaps and bath products to hair care and home fragrance, they also happen to have an amazing Advent Calendar too. 

Hot Toddy is described as being a seasonal candle that is a modern take on the traditional winter warmer. For me, the term Hot Toddy is a reminder of the advice I was always given then I had a bad head cold, the cure of all illness. With this candle it has those spicy notes of nutmeg and patchouli which gives that rich woody, spicy and Earthy notes and it works with the aromatic warmth and richness of vanilla and frankincense, which together stops the vanilla from being too overpowering, instead it sits in the background with its sweet notes.

This is a perfect cosy night in candle which has an amazing fragrance with an incredible throw. It is priced at £25, this 30cl candle has an even burn time of up to 35 hours.

Advanced Nutrition Happy Skin Ultimate

This Christmas Advanced Nutrition Programme have developed a limited-edition design of their award-winning happy skin Ultimate and this is quite the product.

Said to be a healthy alternative to advent calendars, this powerhouse collection contains a 28-day supply of Skin Ultimate and is described as being an ingestible “anti-ageing facial” for radiant skin, hair, and nails. For excellent results, you can use best stem cell skin care products from Calecim.

I am sure I won’t be alone in finding confusion as to which vitamins and supplements are the best to take especially when there is just so many brands in such a saturated market. So for me personally, this product goes some way in to helping me to make that choice because everything I need is right here. Also, in the run up to a very busy festive season, we all want to be looking and feeling our best and I’m hopeful that this will do just that.

As you can see, cleverly packaged in daily protective pods, the skin researchers developed this daily dose system made up of five clever capsules:

• Skin Omegas+,
• Skin Vit A+,
• Skin Asta-Boost,
• Skin Co-Q10+
• Skin Antioxidant

All of these come with a whole host of benefits from skin tone and appearance of your nails to nourishment and below is just what these capsules promise to do.

• Evens skin tone
• Supports thick, glossy hair - Biotin contributes to the maintenance of normal hair
• Maintains the appearance of nails
• Younger looking skin - Vitamin A contributes to the maintenance of normal skin and cell specialization.
• Helps to support normal skin health
• Smooths the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• Nourishes dry skin
• Promotes skin radiance
• Safeguards skin from external stressors

These vitamins come together to help support the appearance of beautiful and glowing skin, hair, and nails from within for the ultimate radiance this festive season.

The advice when taking these is take all five capsules once a day over 28 days, with a meal. So morning to onerous, no jargon to try and understand and best of all, the benefits offered are quite something.

On sale now, you can find the Advanced Nutrition Happy Skin Ultimate 28 Days priced around £60-70 depending on where you choose to shop and having just compared the price to the selection of supplements I am just finishing, the price of this selection is less than half, so a real bargain!

Christmas Gifting with L’Occitane

When it comes to Christmas gifting, finding something from L’Occitane under your tree is always delightful and anyone who is a regular visitor to my blog will know that I am a huge fan of L'Occitane, especially that Almond range!

This year, once again, there is an abundance of gifts available for all budgets with everything from advent calendars and baubles, to crackers and Body Gift sets and more.  

For 2022, L’Occitane have once again offered three Advent Calendars and I have the Classic Advent Calendar, which costs £55 to share as part of my Gift Guide.

This Classic Advent Calendar is priced at just £55, is worth £99.50 and inside you will find products such as:

• 75ml Almond Delicious Hands
• 5ml Immortelle Precious Cream
• 25g Verbena Leaf Soap
• 18g Effervescent Sugar Cube
• 4ml Shea Ultra Rich Lip Balm
• 35ml Almond Shampoo

As well as quite a few more cult products from L'Occitane. If you are a fan of their hand creams, then the Verbena Cooling Hand Cream Gel is almost as wonderful as the Almond Delicious hand cream!

The second gift option I have to share is the L'Occitane Almond Festive Bauble and it is currently priced at just £12 and makes a wonderful Stocking Filler gift or even Secret Santa.

Inside this festive bauble with its cute house-shaped design you will find three products from the Almond Collection:

• 35ml Almond Shower Oil

All perfectly sized for those weekend away bags and looking even better hanging from your Christmas Tree. Alongside the Almond Collection, the hanging baubles are also available in Shea Butter and Cherry Blossom options.

The final product to share with you as part of this gift guide is the L'Occitane Luxury Almond Gift Collection and it is just absolutely stunning in presentation.

This gift set is priced at just £62, though it is worth £72.50 and it is the perfect gift for anyone like me, who just absolutely loves the Almond collection.

Inside the beautifully decorated box you will find what is referred to as a decadent body care collection for the ultimate pampering experience and inside you will find 4 amazing products:

• 500ml Almond Shower Oil
• 100ml Almond Milk Concentrate
• 50g Almond Delicious Soap
• 30ml Almond Delicious Hands

The most perfect L'Occitane gift to give this Christmas for those who are not just a fan of the brand, but also for anyone you are wanting to treat, even if it is yourself!  If Almond isn't the scent for you, then you can also find further options which includes skincare in different collections which I also have my eye on!
