Stocking Fillers you need to buy!

For me, stocking filler presents are often more exciting than buying main presents and there does seem to be a lot of choice and variety out there right now. If you have someone who is a nightmare to buy for, someone who has everything or someone who never knows what they want (me) then a collection of stocking fillers can fill that gap and help you finish off that shopping list.

Beauty crackers are one of those gifts that I have grown to love. I even wrote a post about them here. To that end, some brands have come up with some brilliant products and these are worthy of purchasing.

FeelUnique have two brilliant crackers this year. The Skin Saviours Christmas Cracker is packed with beauty treats that will see you through the festive season and includes Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant 5ml, Ole Henriksen Truth Sugar Glow Polishing Mask 15g, NUXE Reve de Miel Creme Mains et Ongles Hand and Nail Cream 30ml and Jurlique Calendula Redness Rescue Restorative Serum 15ml. 

The second cracker which is packed with Beauty Tools and they are U feelunique Silver Glitter Nail File 3.5", U feelunique Perfect Complexion Blending Sponge and a U feelunique Essential Eye Brush Capsule Collection. Both crackeres retail for £12.

L'Occitane Festive crackers come as a set of three nicely packaged in a box. Each cracker contains three products which include a shower oil, bath cube and a hand cream and each one smells just wonderful. 

The three chosen scents for these crackers are Cherry Blossom, Almond and Lavender. You can find these crackers priced at just £20 here

Caudalie have two crackers to choose from and again, it is a tough choice deciding between the two. 

The first one is Hydration Essentials and it contains Vinosource Moisturizing Sorbet 10ml, Vinosource SOS Thirst Quenching Serum 10ml and Moisturising Mask 15ml. The second cracker is the Body Essentials cracker and inside this one you will find Caudalie Nourishing Body Lotion 30ml and Caudalie Thé des Vignes Shower Gel 30ml. Priced at £10 each you can find them here and here.

Yardley Lily of the Valley Cracker is exceptionally cute. Having had a bit of a makeover, Yardley is a brand that you can't help but love and like. 

This cracker contains a luxurious Nourishing Hand Cream with refreshing Lily extract, hydrating shea butter, moringa oil and sunflower oil, rich in vitamins A and C, it absorbs quickly into the skin leaving hands feeling soft,smooth and delicately fragranced, whilst conditioning and strengthening the nails. Priced at just £4 here it is an absolute bargain.

The DHC Bento Box is another must have product. If you love Korean Beauty or want to discover it, then DHC is an amazing brand to start with.  This box costs just £13 and inside there are 4 products which I absolutely adore. 

Firstly we have the Iconic Deep Cleansing Oil which is DHC’s worldwide bestselling makeup removing cleanser. Also included is the Ultra-nourishing Mild Soap for thorough-yet-gentle cleansing. Revitalising Moisture Eye Strips, to quickly brighten eyes and reduce puffiness and the final item is the 100% natural Blotting Paper, to reduce shine and absorb oil on-the-go.

Gatineau Discovery Collection - This Box of treats is a delight at just £20 from Marks and Spencers. Featuring  a 6 piece collection, worth £107 it is a great way introduction to Gatineau if you are new to the brand and a great way to experience the benefits of premium Parisian skincare. 

I have reviewed the box fully right here but inside you will find Gentle eye make-up remover 50ml, Melatogenine cleanser 50ml, Radiance enhancing gommage 15ml, Melatogenine futur plus anti-wrinkle radiance mask 15ml, Melatogenine AOX Advanced Rejuvenating Cream 15ml and Age Benefit Integral Regenerating Cream 30ml.

So there you have it. A delightful collection of products which would make the most amazing stocking fillers.

Christmas Gift Guide - Perfumes you need in your life!

Perfume for me makes an amazing gift and this year I have totally moved from the confines of my comfort zone, mainly constant repurchases of Bvlgari Pour Femme, and have branched out and have been lucky enough to try some amazing new scents.

I know there are scents that I will not like no matter how good the blurb is and just because I dislike something intensely doesn't mean others will - Thierry Mugler Angel continues to be a best seller and yet for the life of me, I cannot fathom why. So here are some of the most amazing fragrances that I have discovered this year and ones which would make an exceptional gift.

Zadig and Voltaire This is Her is perhaps my obsession right now. I seriously can not get enough of the scent, which I loved from the very first spritz at the launch party. The female fragrance is described as being sensual, free and jauntily. The woody, floral and gourmand This is Her, signed by perfumer duo Sidonie Lancesseur and Michel Almairac, contains notes of pink pepper, Sambac jasmine, milky chestnut cream, vanilla and sandalwood. As a scent it is cosy, it is sweet, it is indulgent and most definitely unique. I love that it smells so totally different to anything else I currently own or have tried and on the skin it starts out being quite floral until the fragrance settles and is mixed with vanilla and sandalwood it becomes just beautiful and I cannot get enough of it. Sold in most fragrance stores on and offline you can expect to pay around £50 for 50ml and John Lewis have a great offer on right now too.

Elizabeth Arden Always Red Femme is another scent that I new I would like from the onset but I was quite prepared for how much I would love it. Always Red Femme is a mixture of fresh fruits, delicate florals and warm woody tones and is a scent which you notice from the very first spritz, it isn't shy or light, but instead arrives with a punch to let you know it is there. With zesty top notes of the blackcurrant bud, lemon and green pear it lands quite heavy and takes a few minutes to settle before you are greeted with the heart notes of peach blossom, ily of the valley, davana and jasmine which take in most of my favourite scents together to create what is a beautifully refreshing scent which are beautifully crisp and light and dry down as Patchouli, moss, cedar and vanilla from the base notes finish off to leave a beautifully fresh floral and fruit scent. At £54 for 100ml here it isn't overly expensive and it is one which lasts.

Monsoon Rose Gold is a scent which surprised me because the base notes are everything I am not a fan of when it comes to a scent - Vanilla being the main issue. But I do like it and I do wear it and once it has settled on the skin, there is quite a floral tone to the fragrance, so if the florals are your thing, then this fragrance is one to look out for. This is a fragrance to look out for due to its rounded bottle and rose gold colouring as well as the scent, it is aesthetically pleasing as it is a delightful scent. When it comes to the price, a 30ml bottle costs £29 and is available from Boots.

Molecule 03 Escentric Molecules is a very new fragrance for me and one that I loved immediately. I am a huge fan of the entire range and have shared my views right here. 03 created by Geza Schoen was constructed around single scent ingredient, or aroma-chemical: vetiveryle acetate, a refined vetiver note which is celebrated at its purest in this fragrance. As a scent it is dark, woody and earthy and the vetiver scent being totally dominant makes this a stunning fragrance for him or her. Priced at around £69 you can find it here.

Viktor and Rolf Bonbon Couture Eau de Parfum is a scent I also adore. The fragrance opens with a juicy combination of mandarin, neroli oil and peach and as soon as the fragrance is spritzed you get a hit of fruit, as the scent settled the heart notes of orange blossom and Sambac jasmineare then sweetened by a potent caramel note. The base notes are what akes the scent and with sandalwood, patchouli, a hint of vanilla and blonde tobacco giving it a woody accord that works well alongside the fruity notes. A 30ml bottle is priced around £50 with John Lewis having the current best deal.

L’Occitane Arlesienne Eau de Toilette. If you like your floral fragrances, then you will love this because it is just such a stunning scent. It belongs to the Musky Floral family and has Head notes of Bergamot Essense, Saffron Extract, Galbanum and Hawthorn Accord. Immediately when it is spritzed the bergamot note bursts into life for the citrus effect and is settled with Saffron and the slight almondy scent of Hawthorn alongside the greenness of Galbanum. The heart notes of May Rose Absolute and Violet Leaf Absolute brings to life the floralness of the perfume.  A 75ml will cost you just £49 here.

Miller Harris Vetiver Insolent is a scent I should have disliked but infact the total opposite and it is one I just absolutely adore. From the first spritz it is outwardly masculine with its woody and earthy tones, but as it settles, the scent becomes much more crisp and sweet but not at all sickly and it lasts forever on the skin and for me that is always impressive. Vetiver Insolent is definitely going to be a scent you either love or hate, I expected to not like it, but I love it and I expect it to be a scent I wear all year round rather than per season. At£85 for a 100ml bottle you get your moneys worth and then some, find it here.

Paco Rabanne One Million Eau My Gold is a scent I disliked intensely for some time, much lie Chanel No.5 which I now also adore. A friend recently sent me this bottle as a thank you for recommending a scent to her and in return this was hers to me! With a composition of mango and the zesty freshness of grapefruit. Violet leaf and orange blossom absolutes lend the floral heart a sparkling feel. Finally, cedar heart and ambery musks reveal their sensuality for an explosion of freshness. An 80ml bottle of One Million Eau My Gold will cost around £45 and you can find it right here.

So there you have 8 fragrances which have been a big part of my life this year and all of them are scents that I would not usually look at or try, but moving away from my comfort zone, I have found some new favourites.

Christmas Presents for Cats

This year so many people have asked me whether or not this post would appear after the one I wrote last year and I thought long and hard about it before deciding yes it would.  I buy presents for my cats just like people buy them for their children and that includes Christmas of course, though I am sure they would just prefer a box and some wrapping paper and maybe a bit of tinsel!

That aside, there are more and more products becoming available for animals at Christmas whether you have a cat, dog, hamster, rabbit or even a goldfish, you will find something suitable for that animal to join in and share the festivities with you.  

The amazing Cat Cottage - Available on Etsy for £70 this Cat Cottage is handmade from sustainable wood it features a carpeted wood roof, has sisal edging and detailing and is painted in buttermilk colour. Inside cushion included, wadding with cream cotton fleece cover, washable. Pure comfort and luxury!

Happypet Cat Scratcher Cat Tree Activity Centre Scratching Post - Available for £34.95 on Amazon this type of product is a must for cats in my opinion. Cats love to climb and scratch and if they have nothing of their own to do that on, then they are more than willing to use your sofa, door frames and anything else they can get their claws into!

Dreamies - My cats will do anything for this stuff, we jokingly call it kitty crack at home because whatever it is they are doing, as soon as they hear a rustle, everything stops and they come bounding into the kitchen to get their treats.  This tin is currently £4.99 from Petplanet and it contains 5 packets of treats.

Purrfect Arch: Cat Self-Grooming & Massaging Toy - We have this for our three boys and they absolutely love it. Priced at £19.99, though it is usually on offer for half price, the arch is infused with catnip to capture your cats attention and the arch helps the cats to remove loose fur which cuts down on shedding and therefore fur balls from grooming and at the same time, it massages your cat.

There are two subscription boxes which are well worthy of gifting to friends who have cats, love cats or both.  The first is My-Purrfect Box which is designed for the cats and is packed full of toys, treats and food. As a monthly box it comes with a host of subscription options to suit your needs and it is one my three love.  The second is MyPurrfectgiftbox which has been designed for both the cat lover and the cat in mind.  Depending on your subscription choice there is 3-5 full sized items, all of a cat theme nature.

FroliCat™ Chatter™ Automatic Cat Teaser - Keep you kitty amused throughout the day with the Chatter teaser! This automatic teaser toy wobbles and chirps, plus it features a 'Play While You Are Away mode' – purrfect for spontaneous playtimes! Priced at £18.99 it is definitely something my three would play with!

Cat weave scratcher - Again, my three love to have something to scratch and at £3.99 this is an absolute bargain and is something I have repurchased a few times now. Made from cardboard it is safe, durable and recyclable. 

Catit Design Senses Play Circuit - An exciting cat toy which can be expanded and varied as you wish. It is a great way to exercise your cat's dexterity and to indulge your pet's natural hunting instincts. This is without question Hectors favourite toy and one he has played with since he was just 8 weeks old and now, a year on, finds it just as entertaining. Priced at just £7.99 it is money well spent.

FroliCat Bolt Laser Cat Toy - Interactive laser pointer for cats, with in-built timer for interactive playing fun with your kitty. This is something Hector would love as he just adores the laser pen I have. He will happily sit and meow at the laser beam as I move it around the room, so this is just a robotic version of said toy. Priced at £18.99 it isn't as cheap as a laser pen which will cost less than £5 but it is fun.

Sound-Mouse Cat Toy - This is a toy I am likely to purchase because it sounds amazing. Inside this cheeky mouse is a sound chip that reacts to the slightest touch, giving out such lifelike squeaks that your cat can't help but give chase. The mouse is attached to an elastic cord; use the rod to play exciting hunting games with your cat and all for just £1.99!

Fleece Blanket - My cats all have their own fleece blankets which I picked up from my local Primark for £3 and they love to sleep on them,

Cute Christmas Jumpers wishlist!

I love Christmas Jumper shopping, mainly online if I am honest but if I see something I like, I am off to try it on before buying. Rather than looking for those which are loud and proud, I wanted something a little more cute and reserved this year and it took literally minutes to find over 30 that I absolutely love and a lot longer to whittle them down.

However, these are my current favourites and one of them is on route to me as I type!

1. Dorothy Perkins. I have a love hate relationship with this store. I either find lots I want or nothing at all. Christmas jumpers however is a whole new subject and I love this Rocking Around The Christmas Treet Jumper. Currently on offer at £21 you'll need to grab it quick.

2. Asda George - This light up Christmas Penguin is very cute all tangled up in Christmas Lights and each fairy light really does light-up and it is on sale for just £16 here.

3. House of Fraser - This Yumi Sequin Santat Jumper is almost sold out (here) but it is too cute not to include and is the only jumper that features Santa that I have seen and liked. Priced at just £25 down from £35 I think it is rather cute.

4. New Look - This Cream Heart Reindeer jumper caught my attention because it isn't a dark colour and is rather cute. It has a rounded neck with a fair bit of glitter and costs just £14.99 here.

5. BooHoo - I am sure no Christmas Jumper list is the same without the inclusion of this one from Boohoo. A quote from Home Alone, I think it looks brilliant on a jumper and you can find it here for just £18.

6. ASOS - This Club L Plus Rockin Robin Christmas Jumper is as Christmassy as it is cute and at just £18 it is an absolute bargain here.

7. Marks and Spencer - As a cat lover with three of my own, I had to find a Christmas jumper which featured a cat and M&S came to my rescue with this one. A Black and White beauty wearing a Christmas crown and it costs £30.

8 - John Lewis - Everyone will have heard of Buster the Boxer by now and this Christmas Jumper from John Lewis is just too cute not to include and mention. Priced at £49.

9 - Matalan - Quite a surprising find in Matalan and having seen it in store it is such a great jumper. The Pompoms sit slightly off the jumper and the star at the top of the tree is sparkly and glittery. All for just £15!

10 - F&F at Tesco - Be the belle of the bauble in our sparkly festive jumper. Decorated with sequin baubles and stars that flash when touched, the jumper is knitted with a comfy crew neck and ribbed edging. Priced at £20.

Have you got a Christmas Jumper this year?
