Anjolee Jewellery

When it comes to jewellery, I can be quite fussy about what I like. I am a simple a girl at heart and don't like rings that are too big, necklaces that cling to my neck or bracelets that dangle too far off my wrist, oh and I am allergic to gold and some silver - so not alot to ask for really!

Anjolee Jewellery is based in San Diego, California and is one of the biggest diamond jewelry manufacturers in the United States. Founded in 1977 and has an extensive catalogue of bridal jewellery, rings, diamond bracelets, earrings, necklaces, and pendants, all of which are absolutely stunning. However, Anjolee is the only jewellery website which has a unique customization system in place which gives you, the customer, the ability to custom-build all of our jewellery designs based on taste and budget.


When it came to choosing my own engagement and wedding ring, thankfully my hubby knew me quite well.  I don't like rings which have big diamonds standing off them, I have quite small hands and use a fair amount of machinery at work, within which I am always putting my hands, so I would be terrified of constantly losing or breaking my ring.  That said, I love eternity band, I know most people get them after having their first child, but as I have none but do have three cats, I think I deserve one right (a girl can try)?  So, this is my top ten eternity rings that I love from Anjolee and I would love to know what you think!



As you can see, each and every one of them is absolutely stunning and definitely the kind of ring I can see myself wearing, the decision of which one however is one I would struggle to decide upon.


Which one would you choose?

Chloe Parfum De Roses

I love perfume and Chloe perfume is something that I have had on my list for a long long time.  It is one of those brands I really like, but have never got around to buying it, instead always opting for something else, usually something similar to one I already have.  So when the chance came up to choose a perfume from the very brilliant website Cosme-De.com, I jumped at the chance to choose this little set and I absolutely adore it.








If you didn't know, Chloe was launched by Karl Lagerfeld design house in 1975, as a sexy floral fragrance for women. Notes in this product consist of orange blossom, ylang-ylang, honeysuckle and lilac blended over mid notes of jasmine and rose. Orris root, sandalwood and musk complete this fragrance.

The presentation box is naturally made of the highest standard and is totally and utterly stunning, it is the kind of product you want to have on show and never ever use, it is that beautiful.  Within this presentation box you will find five bottles of perfume which includes:
  • 1 x 5ml EDP Intense 
  • 2 x 5ml EDP 
  • 2 x 5ml EDT
Priced at just £32.00, which is a massive saving of between £20-£30 depending on where you shop, the quality is just amazing and the scents are simply divine.

Cosme-De have been kind enough to give my readers a discount of 10% plus free shipping using this code - CDNUK1014 which you simply enter at the check-out. Happy Shopping.

EcoHydra Hand Sanitiser

Did you know The average ‘clean looking’ pair of hands can hold up to a shocking 10 million germs, leaving many of us guilty of passing on the stubborn bacteria that can cause illnesses such as colds, influenza, skin infections, and food poisoning, without even realising it? - Ewwww!

With the job that I do, I tend to spend quite a lot of my time dealing with members of the public, people I don't know and have never met until they ring the office doorbell, so the constant shaking of hands, germs and bacteria is something I always worry about. I could spend half of my day constantly washing my hands in a bid to ensure they are kept clean, but overtime that plays havoc with your skin, so I started to use hand santisers as an alternative.  When I was sent a product called EcoHydra, an alcohol free hand sanitiser which claims to kill up to 99.9999% of bacteria, I was delighted to be trying it out.

EcoHydra Hand Sanitiser


For me, alcohol based hand sanitisers are a no-no, they dry my skin out and are too harsh on my skin. EcoHydra comes out of its container, which features a pump, in a foam consistancy and once rubbed into my hands, it disappears almost immediately, leaving behind no stick trace or greasy feel afterwards. There is chemical scent, infact no scent at all and my hands are left feeling nice and clean, the added inclusion of Aloe Vera is something I really like, because it is soothing on the skin and it has a lasting protection of up to 4 hours, which I find to be quite impressive.

EcoHydra state that their Free Hand Sanitiser 100 times more effective at killing bugs and germs to the high street equivalents and It has proven efficacy against E coli, Sars, Bird Flu, MRSA and NoroVirus not to mention that it has been chosen for use by NASA and is now approved by the NHS.  It is suitable for use on all skin types as well as being gentle enough for use on children.

Since using it, my hands have not become sore or irritated from over-washing and in 4 weeks of using 5 times a week, approximately 4-5 times a day, I have probably more than half of my bottle left to use. EcoHydra Hand Sanitiser comes in 50ml bottles and will retail for £2.49 at boots.

Do you use a hand sanitiser?
