Yankee Candle Indian Summer Collection *WIN*

It's so lovely returning home after a long day out to the inviting scent of candles. Not only can the aroma be really relaxing and help you to chill after a stressful shift, but they also hide any smells from pets and cooking which is always handy, especially when guests call by.

Yankee Candle are soon to launch their 'Indian Summer: Votive Happiness' boxes which contain 4 votive candles, and being obsessed with their Vanilla Cupcake candle already I was keen to give these a go before their release. They also bring a little of summer into your home even when the weather isn't on your side which certainly cheers me up!





The new Indian Summer fragrances include Wild Fig, Amber Moon, Ginger Dusk and Honey Glow and the set of 4 sampler candles arrive in a pretty presentation box, making them a great gift solution.

FUN

Imagine a beautifully scented soft dough that can be used in the bath, shower, to wash your hair and to play with and you have Fun; Lush's latest invention. 

I'm a big fan of Lush (as are the Mini Mes) so we were pleased to receive a box filled with goodies for us to review including Fun. 


Fun comes in 5 colours, each with its own fragrance; Pink smells sweet like candy, green is packed with lime and lemon for a refreshing clean, blue contains lavender to help your little one relax before bed, red is bursting with orange and mandarin and yellow is vanilla to remind you of ice cream and and cake! A lovely variety to suit every taste.

The Mini Mes instantly wanted to create some models and shapes so they removed them from the biodegradable wrappers to play.

Some of their creations...



Similar to salt dough it was easy to squish, roll and shape. It was quite crumbly at first but the more it was used the softer it became. The Mini Mes loved it!

To use fun to clean with you pinch off a small piece and lather it up. You can also crumble it under running water to wash your clothes with so that they smell delicious too. This 4 in 1 product really is very versatile. I like how the scent remains despite being played with!

Each colour costs £5 which is perhaps a little pricey for some but considering they can be used in so many ways, are fragranced wonderfully and will last quite some time I think that's acceptable. I would buy them.



You can order yours online or in store. www.lush.co.uk

With every purchase for the first year Lush will donate 10p to support children that were affected by the Fukushima Disaster. They want to help put some fun into the lives of those where there may be very little at present - a lovely idea!
