Pretty & Witty Bath Set
I've seen this brand before but never picked up any pieces so I was happy to see a bath set in my Christmas gifts this year. I received the body butter, bubble bath and body wash as well as a lovely little case which I adore.
February Favorites 2015
This month has been a bit of a pamper month and I've been doing loads of at home spa days and having a really relaxed month. A lot of the beauty products are quite basic and I've been loving a lot more of none beauty related items so it's a bit of a mixed bag this month, enjoy!
Candles have been a bit hit this month as it's been quite a cold one I've been lighting and using up loads of my Yankee Candles which I adore I have re brought Orange Splash quite a few times already and I've nearly burnt my latest one. I've been really enjoying citrus and berry scent which are reminding me off autumn with hints of spring, I also find them really relaxing and quite nice to burn in the evening to fill my room with a lovely scent before drifting off to sleep.
Body butter has been a bit must for this month as my skin has been so sensitive and dry that I've had to use it pretty much every night before going to bed, I prefer using it in the evening as it's easier to put clothes on as I normally wear pj's and I find it relaxes me and makes me quite sleepy. I always go for a really strong scented one like The Body Shop's Satsuma or H&M's Pink Macaroon which are really sweet and strong scented products which have helped me loads over the last month when my skin has been far to dry.
I have been over wearing my lip balms this month as my lips have had the same affect as my legs and have gone all dry and sore, so I have opted with a really basic but great lip balm Nivea Essential Care. I picked this up after forgetting my own at home and placed it into my bag and after that it has been used all day and none stop as it works really well to help soothe lips and make them look kissable again.
Vaseline Healthy Hands and Stronger Nails Cream has been my lifesaver this last month as it's a great handbag friendly sized product that I put into my bag and use each morning when going to work but it helps my hand stay nice and protected again the horrid dry cold weather by leaving them soft and nourished they look lovely. I haven't noticed an improvement in my nails but they haven't been bad over the last month so I couldn't really test that part out with the product, but it has a lovely scent and soaks in nicely.
Lastly I have been loving some headphones as I broke my headphones earlier in the month I went into HMV and found a great pair which are perfect for anyone who wants in ear headphones. They are a great purple colour which matches my ipod and has a really long wire with a cute gold tip, I added the little clip but they work really well. The in ear buds seem to fit really snuggle and don't fall out they also seem to block out any noise which I really like, but best off all there only £5.99 which is a great price to pay! They are called sqsh+ and I would really recommend them to anyone who loves in ear buds!
So that's it for my favorites what have you been loving this month?

King Of Skin Lush
Move over moisturizer there's a new kid on the block, King Of Skin and yes he really is a king. This amazing product from Lush has been the only product I've been talking about this last month and I can't boost it's ego anymore so I just had to share him with you lovely lot.
It's cost £5.50 for this product and you get around 6 uses out of it which is a tad expensive for a body butter but oh so worth it. The scent is rather odd as it's a blend of Bananas, Avocados and Oatmilks making it quite a neutral scent with some fresh scents. It designed to nourish your skin and make it super smooth which it 100% does, I've been running around to anyone I can get my hands on and asking them to feel my skin as I love it that much.
It's one of those product's which you can repurchase over and over and never get bored off, if only Lush brought out one that lasted longer then 6 uses!

Beauticology Pink Peppermint Body Butter
I received this item as a gift in my Secret Santa swap and have only really started to use it as I was using up another body butter. It's from the company Beauticology a sister company to Baylis and Harding they do all sort of bath and body goodies including the Pink Peppermint Body Butter. There prices range from £3-£10 depending on the type of item you are buying, I only seem to find them at Christmas but I'm sure there is a store out there that stock the range!
The scent of the product is rather mild it has a nice peppermint scent with smells like candy canes, it's not to sickly or to sweet I find it just right. It is classed as a body butter but it is rather smooth and thin compared to other body butters I would class it as a moisturizer instead but it still works great. I use body butters mainly after shaving or if I'm having a pamper evening I usually apply to all over my body so for me I only had around 4-6 uses out of the 30ml tube. I did however notice how it left my skin feeling soft and how it absorbed really quick.
I would to try out some more products from the Beauticology range and hopefully I can find them in store and not just at Christmas, if you know a store which stocks the range let me know!

Body Butter - Pink Macaroon
While in Paris I visited there H&M and was overwhelmed with how large it was, the Champs Elysees one compared to my local one is huge! So there was a lot of product and clothes I have never seen before included a body butter called Pink Macaroon.
It comes in a small round tub with a light pink bottom and a reflective pink top (which makes it hard to photograph!) at first I was going to pink up a tube of the body cream but decided to pink up the body butter due to the cute and different packaging.
The scent is nice and sweet with a fews citrus and fruity smells, I've never smelt a macaroon so I can't really say if it's a match or not but it is a lovely scent. The body butter is quite thin and soft which surprised me as I was expecting a thick heavy cream but it was a nice surprise. It soaks in quite quickly and doesn't have a sticky after feeling which I loved.
It cost 3.95 Euros and I'm yet to see it in the british store and I can't find it online,

Nip and Fab Mango Smoothie Body Butter Review
I had not heard of Nip and Fab before receiving the Mango Smoothie Body Butter in my April Glossybox. My first thought was oh no! as I am not a fan of Mango scented product's but this one smell's amazing. It's extremely thick and soothing for my skin, I also noticed it did smooth out some or my dry area's especially on my hands.
When I applied it to my skin it did really like it wasn't going to sink it but after a good five minutes it was all soaked in and I could get dressed. The smell seem's to last on my skin all day which I really liked and I also got a compliment from a work colleague who said I smelt nice that day!
I will defiantly be purchasing the full size product and will be having a little look at the other Nip and Fab product's, do you have any you think I should check out?

Soap and Glory Review's Body Scrubs, Butter and Arch De Triumph
I don't own many Soap and Glory product's but when I went shopping for some holiday bit's and bob's I noticed they had a mini collection so I picked up some scrubs. Then while I was shopping I also noticed an offer 'spend £10 or more and receive a free body butter' So I also picked up a body butter and a eyebrow pencil.
The mini's are fantastic, They smell amazing and leave my skin feeling so soft, while scrubbing on my skin I was worried it would scratch as it's quite a harsh formula but it was completely opposite, it soothed and relaxed my skin. I went back recently and picked up a large bottle of one of the scrub's as both my mini's had nearly run out.
The free body butter was the five fruit one, which smells divine. It is really thick but smooth's onto my skin really well, it also really soothes my skin after a hot bath. The product also seem's to last for ever, I've been using it for a good 2 week's now and it still seem's as full as when I brought it!
Lastly one of my favorite product's I purchased last month was the Arch De Triumph eyebrow pencil, which has 2 side's a eyebrow shaper and then a highlighter. This product is fantastic, The shaper blends so well and has an easy build able coverage, while the highlighter is great for blending and if you go wrong it smudges off really well.
I will defiantly be purchasing some more Soap and Glory product's, do you have any favorites?
