VANILLA BEAN CANDLE


THE TREASURY OF CANDLES!
-
Vanilla Bean Scented 
+
 Jewellery Hidden Inside!

Time to get your romance on - it's Valentine's Day tomorrow!! If you've been following my Instagram
you may have noticed my love theme going on over there giving you a few ideas to get your prepped
and ready for the day of love. 

Today I am just bursting to tell you all about this romantic aromatic glorious soy wax scented candle 
which is packaged like luxury in this sturdy black box presented complete with an organza coloured 
ribbon and  neat little bow on the top. There are 11 different scents to choose from at The Treasury Of
 Candles and each is presented with a different coloured ribbon. 

Scents available are - Vanilla Bean / French Pear / Maple Syrup & Pumpkin Waffle / Lemon Vanilla
Cupcake / Lychee & Black Tea / Spiced Fruits / Blueberry Muffin / Warm Woods & Bonfire Nights /
Clean Cotton & Honeysuckle / Exotic Lychee / Chocolate Orange Truffle.


As I am a bit of a vanilla nut, of course I was drawn to choose the Vanilla Bean scented candle and my
goodness does it smell like a vanilla lovers dream!

Housed in a tall white recyclable glass with shiny gold lid. It really is a beauty! These Treasury candles
 have a super long burn time of up to 80 hours! That's at least 8 bubble baths long! ;)


Now for the fun part! What makes this candle so unique is that there is a hidden treasure inside!
In each candle there is a ring valued from between $25 - $7,500! 

Impatient as anything I lit my candle and waited for what seemed like forever until I finally saw 
something silver poking up from underneath the melted wax. Ok, so I only wait about an hour until I
saw something, grabbed my tweezers and started tugging and digging to get it out!


Low and behold as you can see in the image below, the ring is securely wrapped inside a snap tight 
clear plastic bag and then wrapped agin in some foil.

The tag on my ring says it is a size 7 which I guess is the average size for most people. However it is a
bit big for me and fits most comfortably on my pointer finger next to my thumb. 

It is a lovely ring with 5 emerald green gems set in silver and according to The Treasuring Of
Candles website is valued at $79!


So if you're interested in treating yourself, a friend or someone you love this Valentine's Day why not 
get them something a little different, unique, smells great creates a romantic atmosphere and well -
Jewellery!

 Each candle is $59.95 each with FREE SHIPPING!

Also available which you can purchase directly from their website is their handy little gold plated 
Candle Snuffer and Wick Trimmer at $24.95 each.

WOW BROWS


~  Rimmel London  ~

Perfect Brow Products!

http://au.rimmellondon.com

Brow This Way Eyebrow Sculpting Kits!
Shades - Mid Brown & Dark Brown. RRP $12.95
(Shop!)

When it comes to my brows I usually just use any old brow pencil I have lying around and never
really got into trying any kind of powder palette due before so I was exciting to open these up and 
have a play! 

When it comes to makeup, I love it all however I am a huge believer in getting the base right first and
that includes those bushy brows which can easily get out of control and look unruly if not kept groomed
and maintained. I am the first to admit I tend to get a bit lazy with the plucking and usually quickly pick
out the strays and tidy them up before heading out in public. They are not something I have the time to
think about day to day so when it comes to applying my makeup, I need to be able to do it fast and that
includes the brows which can make such a dramatic difference to your overall face and when done right
it looks amazing!

What I love about these duos is the two step process of first applying the wax followed by the powder.
Even though it is one step more than my usual pencil, it really doesn't feel like it takes any longer to do
and I have come to quickly include it in my makeup routine with the handy brushes provided in the kits.



Brow This Way Eyebrow Gels!
Shades - Blonde, Mid Brown, Dark Brown. (Also available in Clear!) RRP $12.95 each!
(Shop!)

Easy to mistake for a brown mascara, these brow gels are great to groom those brows on a rushed
morning. I found the Dark Brown worked best on my face as my hair is already naturally very dark
and this shade really helped to define then into neat little caterpillars as well as keeping them nicely
in place. I love that I have the other two shade variations as I am in the (slow) process of lightening my
hair so as it gets lighter I have these handy brow gels on hand to make the switch as needed.

The wands transfer just the right amount of product to give you complete control when applying. I
usually only need one coat and a little touch up with the Sculpting Kit and omg the difference is
amazing, my eyebrows have seriously never looked this put together. Their lives are far more organised
than mine! (Seriously!)

Available to purchase in store from Priceline, Big W, Coles, Woolworths & other good retailers.

VEET


~  VEET  ~

EASYWAX ELECTRICAL ROLL ON KIT


Over the years I think I must have tried just about every single kind of hair removal method out there,
from shaving, waxing, desolving creams, epilady's and I even tried laser once! However after years of
waxing due to getting fed up with suffering from constant irritable itching and rash from shaving I
eventually got sick of always having unsightly bushy legs all the time (minus the week or two after
waxing) and them spending the next 4-6 weeks trying to hide my legs away whilst the hair grew back
ready for the next round of waxing. Over the past few months with my legs being hidden away in
mostly jeans and leggings, shaving has been a pretty pointless task so needless to say my legs were
 more than ready to try out this baby ready for Spring!

Honestly, this isn't the first time I have tried this Veet EasyWax Kit. I first reviewed it about three
years ago and it you're interested, you can catch my review here. But I just haven't been using it as
 often as I probably should. Being quite time poor, I have been lazy and going for the quick and easy
 razor route. However I do eventually want to become naturally hair free on my legs and waxing is
 definitely the way to go to achieve this over shaving! So now I am committing myself to keep at this
 because it really doesn't take that long to do and I am so used to the pain of the hair being ripped out,
I barely notice it anymore. I don't really have a good enough excuse so I am going to stick with this
as it is really fun to use, isn't messy like most hot waxes and really affordable as well. You just can't
go wrong with this kit!


The handheld device has pink grip on the sides for ease of use and the long cord makes it really convenient to use. It does take approximately 20 minutes for the wax cartridge to heat up inside
which I don't mind as I can always find some kind of other beauty maintenance to do whilst I wait.
(i.e. - eyebrow plucking, face mask, pedicure, etc!)

What is so great about this kit is you only have to purchase it once! The wax cartridges and unwoven
wax strips you can simply re-purchase once you run out and they won't cost you an arm and a leg
either! It's just like you very own salon wax in the comfort and privacy of your own home. The
results are second to none as well! (Makes me feel like a bit of a pro as well which is pretty ego
boosting as I am definitely no pro waxer! - Legs are as far as I'll go. Had a Brazilian done at a salon
once and O.M.G. what on earth was I thinking?! Hurt like an absolute bitch!)

Veet EasyWax Replacement Wax Cartridge - RRP: $14.99 (Buy!)

I should also mention the kit also comes with 4 individually wrapped after wax soothing wipes. These
moist wipes feel so good being gently wiped over my super sensitive slightly numb skin. I found they
also calm down the appearance of redness and red spots initially after waxing. It also really easily 
removes any left over wax residue on the skin. However I found very little after using this kit.

x12 Unwoven Wax Strips - Replacement Pack RRP: $7.99 (Buy!)

This Veet EasyWax Electrical Roll On Kit is available to purchase from many Australian retailers including - Coles, Chemist Warehouse, Priceline + more for a current RRP of $39.99. (Buy!)
