Collective Yankee Candle Haul


Hullo Ladies!

It's been a long time since I've posted anything on this blog. My mothers been very ill lately and I haven't got as much free time as I used to so blogging has had to be put on hold for the last few months.

Recently though I felt the need to write about my latest addiction which is Yankee Candles.

I bought my first Yankee Candle just before Christmas called Snowflake Cookie and loved it but since then I've bought many more!



Cappuccino Truffle is one of thier latest releases for 2015 and it smells amazing. It's reminds me of the Thornton's Cappuccino chocolates which I used to buy a bag of every time I went shopping in West Wales when I was younger. 

Smelling it from the jar it seems very strong, I don't know how well it burns yet though. I can't wait to find out :-) 



Another new scent for 2015 Pain Au Raisin is a gorgeous bakery scent. I didn't know what to think about this scent which is why I chose the tart form. I melted it last night though and bought the large jar of it online this morning. It smells so good, my bedroom smells like a bakery right now! 


A few weeks ago I bought a medium size jar of Summer Scoop which I'm excited to burn in the warmer months because it smells like raspberry ripple ice cream! 


Another new scent from Yankee Candle Red Raspberry is a gorgeous fruity raspberry jam scent.
When I first smelt it in the store I wasn't too fussed but I couldn't stop smelling it whenever I passed. If you'rr a fan of fruity scents it's definitely one you should try.



Strawberry Buttercream is a popular scent from Yankee Candle, I've been burning this a lot lately and everyone who's come into the house has commented on it. It's a very sweet strawberry's and cream scent. The smell fills a large room too which is always a great thing, so I burn it in my living room. 



Jelly Beans is an Easter Limited Edition scent and it smells like a bag of Jelly Belly Jelly Beans. Which I LOVE! I've always been a big fan of Jelly Beans so I knew this one was meant to be mine. It's such a pretty Jar though I'm scared to burn it! Haha! 



Last but not least is Sweet Strawberry which I've been meaning to pick up for ages! Its a gorgeous sugary strawberry scent. It will be interesting to see how powerful this candle is, I can't wait to burn it :-) 


Even though some of the time I get my Yankee Candles from a store I also buy most of them on Amazon and Ebay at a great discount so shop around if you're looking to buy one! 

What's your favourite Yankee Candle?

Mine happens to be Christmas Cookie but Pain Au Raisin is quickly becoming a new favourite.

Christmas Wishlist 2014

Hullo Ladies!

That time of year again is fast approaching and these last few weeks I've been thinking about what I want for Christmas :-)



Topshop Lip & Cheek Set

I've been dying to try the Topshop Makeup Range but I've never had the chance, I went onto the website the other day having a little browse and noticed that they had brought out these cute little Lip & Cheek sets that I think would be perfect for someone like me who hasnt tried anything from the range yet :-) 

Soap & Glory Gloss Crayons Gift Set

I wanted to pick up last years version of this set but never managed it! I later bought Nudest on a three for two offer and fell in love so I'm hoping to finally get the set this year!  

Starbucks Festive Mug

I love a good Christmas Mug to drink my Hot Chocolate in and I adore this Starbucks Design! 

Soap & Glory Kohl Set

Soap and Glory have upped their game this year with the makeup sets and I'm dying to try out their eyeliners so this gift set would be a perfect way to do just that!

LUSH Christmas Bathtime Favourites Set

You may not know this but lately I've become obsessed with LUSH and this Gift Set looks so blinking amazing!!! I'm dying to have it!


Snowman Jumper

You have to have a good Christmas Jumper this time of year and this one from ASDA is so cute! 

Benefit Cheeky Sweet Spot Box-O-Blushes Set

I think I'll cry if I don't get this amazing set this year. I've always wanted to try the Benefit Blushes but I just find them way too expensive! This set contains a whole bunch of them for a great price! I'm determined that it will be mine :-)  

Marc Jacobs Daisy Gift Set

Every year I ask for a perfume set and this year I'm dying to try the original Daisy EDT :-) 

 Yankee Candle

Every time I walk into a shop that sells Yankee Candles I spend a good 30 minutes smelling them all but always walk away because of the price tag! This year I'm putting one on my wishlist ;-)

So those are the goodies that I'm wishing for this Christmas!
What have you got your eye on?
