July Favourites!

             July Favourites!


This week,I thought I would share with you some homeware and skincare products I loved using in July!   

  

So let's start with homeware!

indoor plants; cacti
I am in love with this set of three cacti I picked up from my local garden centre. They are a great decor feature for my living room. They came in a wicker basket but can be taken out of this and placed around your home in their three seperate glass jars. This set of 3 was £11.99. 


Salter Knife Set
Salter Knife Set

This set of Salter knives were actually given to me as a present from one of my best friends! He knew I had a love for copper and I absolutely love these! Not only do they look gorgeous displayed in my kitchen but they are actually brilliant knives! I would highly recommend these! 

Yankee Candles

If you follow me on Instagram, you may already know about my obsession with candles! I just love how they look, smell and how they make my home feel! 

Yankee Candle; Delicious Guava
This month I have discovered an amazing new scent from Yankee Candle! 
The Delicious Guava is a lovely citrus, light scent that is perfect for those summer evenings! 

Yankee Candle; Apple Cinnamon Cider

Now I know what you're all thinking...isn't that a winter scent candle? Well the short answer is yes! I actually got this for Christmas 2016 and came across it again a few weeks ago. It hasn't been the best weather here in the UK the last few weeks so I have actually been using this candle in my bedroom to make myself feel all cosy and ready for Autumn/Winter 2017! As time goes by, you will start to see my Winter/Christmas obsession expose itself! ;) 


George Home Asda Candles

I was wondering around my local Asda supermarket about a month ago and I accidentally happened to find myself in the homeware section! I could not believe what a find these candles were at only £2 each!

Raspberry Royale Candle; Asda

I was actually on the hunt for a red candle to match the feature colour in my kitchen. I found the Raspberry Royale candle and picked it purely for it's colour...until I smelt it. It smells amazing! Such as lovely strong smell of raspberry that lingers even after the candle has been blown out. Love it!

Blueberry Crush Candle; Asda
So naturally I wanted to see what the other 3 scents were like in the same design. The next candle I found was the Blueberry Crush. It again, is such as a lovely strong scent of blueberry, which I have found is perfect in the bathroom. It is such a relaxing scent!

Zesty Orange Candle; Asda

The next candle I came across was Zesty Orange. This gorgeous, citrus scent is perfect in my living room where the scent of orange is able to fill every corner of the room. 

Tropical Mango Candle; Asda

The final candle in this same design is the Tropical Mango. It goes beautifully with the Blueberry crush when used together to give both a fruity and a citrus scent together. Love this candle! 


Now moving onto my skincare picks for July!


Mango Body Butter; The Body Shop

This Mango Body Butter from The Body Shop was actually given to me as a present a few years ago. I recently rediscovered it and am obsessed! As someone who gets dry skin, this has been a lifesaver! I can feel the body butter lasts on my skin for a long time, making my skin feel smooth and soft throughout the day! 


Sanctuary Spa White Lily and Damask Rose Body Lotion
 Another moisturiser my skin has been thanking me for is this Sanctuary Spa White Lily and Damask Rose Body lotion. I would personally say this moisturiser works just as well for me as The Body Shop butters but I find the scent lasts longer with Sanctuary products. I literally feel like I don't even need to wear a perfume when I use this body lotion as the scent is strong enough to last throughout the day!


Lemongrass and Cedarwood Hand Lotion; The Handmade Soap Company

This Lemongrass and Cedarwood hand lotion from The Handmade Soap Company was actually given to me as a gift from a relative in Ireland. This hand lotion looks brilliant next to my kitchen sink. The packaging is beautiful but I can honestly say, the lotion itself smells absolutely amazing! I love using it as I am pottering around the kitchen, to keep my hands soft and moisturised. When people come over and use this hand lotion, they are always wondering where I got it! 

Heel Genius; Soap & Glory

As someone who is always running around 24-7, I am so pleased I discovered this Soap & Glory Heel Genius Foot Cream. It smells minty fresh and leaves my feet feeling refreshed and moisturised. I love just leaving this foot cream on once I have showered and am ready for bed, as I curl up with a good book or a film!


West Lab Bath Salts

My final two July favourites are for bath lovers! These Salts from Westlab have been amazing for my skin and my body in general. The Epsom Salt has been great for de-stressing my body after a long day at work! You simply add up to a cup of salt to your bath and enjoy! The Himalayan Salt is a fantastic detoxifyer! Not only are the salts a gorgeous baby pink colour, but they smell great too! Again, just add 1 cup (or a couple if you really want to feel the effects) to your bath and enjoy.
