Autumn/Winter Yankee Candle Wax Melts

It's no secret that I'm a massive fan of Yankee Candle, especially their wax tarts. It's a great way of testing out different scents without spending a fortune, and I often find they smell stronger than the large jars too.

Every year I treat myself to some of the new A/W scents, with a couple of old favourites thrown in.  I get mine from eBay. They were on buy 5 get 1 free so I only picked up 6 this time as a few of the new scents were out of stock. Hopefully they'll restock them soon and I'll grab a few more Christmas ones. P.S. If order some, don't forget to use your cashback apps!

Glittering Star (new for 2018)

Icy Blue Spruce (new for 2018)

Winter Wonder (new for 2018)

Winter Glow (one of my absolute faves)

Autumn Pearl (new for 2018)

Season of Peace (another firm winter fave)

Earn while you shop this Christmas...

If you're like me and hate the crowds and prefer to do your shopping online, then don't forget to earn cashback when you shop!

TopCashback is a quick and simple way of earning a bit of money back while you shop! It's super easy!

I discovered it a few years back, and whilst it took me a while to remember to go through the site before spending online, it does feels great when you see the amount building up in your account. I usually like to withdraw quite regularly so I don't see it build up too much as I want to reap the rewards! 

If you use my link here to sign up you'll also get a £5 Debenhams e-gift card to use online! (I'll also get a little reward so it's a win win)

Remember, every time you purchase anything online.... go to TopCashback first. You can do this via the app OR the website. Search for the intended retailer and click on the cashback box. This will link you through to the website and you continue to purchase as you would normally. The rest is done for you. You'll then be notified when your cashback is pending. It's that simple.

Quidco is also another personal favourite. It's the same concept, but they also offer online voucher codes for discount on your shop too. They sometimes have merchants on their site that TopCashback dont, and vice versa. For example, I made an order for New Look recently, and they weren't on TopCashback so I checked Quidco and they were offering 5% cashback. So always remember to check both first.

Happy Shopping!

Cute New Bits From Home Bargains

H O M E  B A R G A I N S - I love youuu! Seriously though, can't beat a good bargain shop, and Home Bargains is certainly my favourite out of the MANY we have in Middlesbrough. I actually have Sophie from avenue de sophie to thank for this little haul (credit where credit is due), as it's this post that made me want to run and see what cute bits I could find in my local HB. Thanks Sophie!

The first things I picked up were these Vintage Eerin Mason Jars - one with a traditional gold lid and one with a green polka dot lid and matching straw. I thought the traditional one would work well as a vase for some nice small flowers, whilst the other one would look great with a smoothie or milkshake inside. (Yes, I'm mainly thinking about pretty Instragrammable pictures with everything I bought here, I won't lie). I think these were about 59p each, absolutely bargainous. The next thing I picked up was this adorable Tea Mug. Again, think this just looks fab and can be used as either a drinking mug or a lovely little window ledge decoration. They also had other designs including coffee ones, but obviously as a tea lover I had to go for tea. This was £1.50. I know!

Lastly, for £1.59, I got this 4 pack of Glass Milk Bottles with coloured straws. How adorable? I've been after something like this for ages and think this will be a great addition to my kitchen. Can't wait to drink a little milkshake from these! 

Have you found any home bargains lately?

Recent Haul - Primark & Superdrug

Along with my recent MAC Lipstick Haul, I also picked up a few other bits from Primark & Superdrug that I thought I'd pop into a post. Last week I went to the Primark in Newcastle which is sooo much bigger than my local Middlesbrough store. Saying that, I think I did quite well as I only picked up a few bits. The first thing I picked up was this gorgeous Monochrome Gingham Scarf (£5). I know it's only August and I felt strange buying a scarf in the Summer but I couldn't resist and to be fair I've probably needed it a few days already! Bloody British Summer!! I grabbed these Hogwarts Knee High Socks just because I love anything Harry Potter related and I do love a good pair of knee highs to chill out in at night. I also picked up some hair clips as now I have a bob I can no longer put my hair up into a messy bun so I need some smaller clips to pin it back out of my face when I'm in one of those moods.  I love the little floral designs on these and for the price I don't care if they break within a week. I was looking all over for the Primark Beauty Blender Sponge but I couldn't see any, but I did find this Foundation Blending Sponge which is a smaller version with a brush handle so I thought I'd give it a go as it looks a good size for concealer. For £1.50 its certainly worth a dabble.

Onto Superdrug, I was just having a little browse as you do, and I noticed their Vitamin E Skincare range was on buy one get one half price. I needed a new exfoliator anyway, so I thought I'd give the Gentle Oatmeal Exfoliator a try, along with the Facial Oil, as I do love a good oil on the owld mush! I then popped over to Barry M as I'd been wanting to try their new Speedy Quick Dry Nail Polishes. They were on 2 for £7 so as it would have been rude to only choose one, I went for the shades Get Set Go - a vibrant, deep pink and Pit Stop - a pastel lilac/grey . Looking forward to giving them a go.

Ideal Stocking Fillers From Anatomicals

Anatomicals is a brand I've seen popping up all over the place but one I've never tried until recently when I was sent a couple of their products, and one I received in a beauty box. I'm loving the brand and think they'll make perfect stocking fillers, so what better time of year to share them ey?

Anatomicals is pretty hard to get hold of for some reason, but a large selection of the range is available on ASOS and Amazon, making them easy to order for last minute stocking fillers etc. First up is the Anatomicals Soap From Your Favourite Eastenders Bath Bar* (£5.00), a whopping 300g of grapefruity goodness that leaves the skin feeling squeaky clean. but soft at the same time. Next up, one for those who struggle with tiredness and eye bags - the Anatomicals Puffy the Eyebag Slayer Revitalising Eye Mask* (£3.50) is an amazing eye mask that can be used both hot and cold, with the cold being really amazing at reducing those bags by cooling and revitalising the skin around the eyes. I have a feeling I'm gonna be using this a lot more when baby number 2 arrives in Feb/March, eek! Last but not least, there's the Anatomicals World Pore 3 Deep Cleansing Nose, Chin & Forehead Strips* (£7.00). My skin has been behaving really well recently, I dunno if it's a 'pregnancy glow' or just the fact I'm really into my skincare, so I haven't really had the need for these, but I did give them a go and I'm glad to say they didn't break me out, so that's enough for me. My nose is extra sensitive when it comes to these kinds of products, but they simply left my skin feeling ultra clean and fresh, so I know where to turn when I do next get a breakout.

What I love about this brand is the cheeky way they have with words. They really put a lot of effort into their branding and I like that and I definitely wanna try more from the brand. I'm really intrigued to try the Headache Relief Balm & Sleep Balm next so I might just be adding them to my ASOS basket very soon.

Have you tried anything from Anatomicals?

Maternity Fashion Wishlist

Well, think it's finally time I get myself some proper maternity clothes. I'm living in leggings at the moment as my jeans all dig in and are far too uncomfortable. I'm thinking if I buy myself a good couple of pairs of maternity jeans they'll last me through the winter until baby arrives in late Feb. I didn't have this problem last time as I was pregnant during the summer, so I just lived in floaty dresses and elasticated waist shorts. Anyway, I've had a little browse of the web to see what I could find...

Maternity Dark Blue Mottled Denim Jeggings - £24.99 - New Look

2 in 1 Maternity/Nursing Wrap Tunic (raspberry) - £9.99 - ebay

Maternity Asymmetric Neck Tunic (beige) - £9.99 - ebay

Maternity Polka Dot Top - £10 - George at Asda

ASOS Maternity Swing Dress with Stripe Sheer Sleeve - £30 - ASOS

Maternity Dark Grey Leigh Jeans - £38 - Topshop

I'll probably do a Christmas edition next, for party dress ideas etc, as I'll be pretty much a whale by then! ha!
