Baylis & Harding Beauticology Master Chocolatier









Oh this review is well overdue. It's been a long time coming and for what seems like forever, I've been wrapping my skin in chocolate yumminess. When a delicious Baylis & Harding press release made its way into my inbox, I could've resist but snap up their Master Chocolatier collection. Being a girl, it's inevitable that I'm addicted to chocolate but you know, a moment on the lips a lifetime on the lips and all that. So instead of indulging in the naughties, I've been getting my chocolate fix elsewhere.

Beauticology Sweet Temptations* (can't find online but here's a similar one)
Strawberry & vanilla cream truffle body wash, white chocolate body lotion, decadent milk chocolate shower creme.
Body care wise, I haven't used any other products since receiving this gift set. It's perfect in every way possible. The shower creme and body wash are lovely at what they're branded as, but if you really want to indulge, pop a few drops under a running tap - you'll have the most delicious bubble bath of your entire life. The products fill the room with a yummy scent which one of the boys in my house even complimented. The body lotion is wonderful too. It sinks into the skin immediately and leaves behind a wonderful smell. If I do say so myself, I smell good enough to eat after using this.

Decadent milk chocolate, strawberry & vanilla cream truffle, white chocolate and raspberry creme chocolate. 
I was sold the moment I saw the tin. I love me some good packaging and this tin now houses my cotton wool pads - genius. The lip balms aren't the most moisturising but they do hydrate the lips nicely and provide a wonderful base for lipstick. They also taste and smell beautiful - like everything in this blog post do - and because of this, I've been using them non-stop.

Have you tried anything from the Beauticology range before?

Bedside Beauty



Next to my bed, I have a few essential products that I apply to my hands, lips and pillow before going to sleep. The candle isn't something that I leave burning throughout the night - don't worry! - but I do love lighting it a couple of hours before I'm due in bed so that the room is filled with a gorgeous scent. 

The Carex Nourish & Protect Vitamin E Hand Cream* is truly wonderful. I have six bottles of the new Carex Hand Creams and I can't recommend them enough. I will be doing a full blog post on them all so I'll just give you a brief overview of this one for now. The Nourish & Protect version is great for when your hands are feeling more dry than usual. The Vitamin E sinks into the hands quickly, moisturising them and leaving them feeling super soft. On my lips I use the Strawberry & Vanilla Cream Truffle lip balm from the Baylis & Harding Beauticology Chocolate Lip Balm Tin Set.* Not only does this lip balm smell and taste incredible, it also nourishes the lips without leaving a nasty film of product on them. 

I've mentioned the Miaroma Lavender Pure Essential Oil* before and I stand by everything I said. Despite the fact that I hate the smell of lavender, I love using a couple of drops of this oil on my pillow before going to bed. It really soothes me and helps me get a calm and satisfying nights sleep. And finally, the Colony Powder Fresh candle smells absolutely divine. It's clean, fresh and extremely affordable. I bought this when it was in the clearance section at Boots as I'd had my eyes on it for a while. It smells exactly like it claims to and fills the room with a beautiful aroma. 

What products do you keep by the bedside?
