Diptyque Liquidambar Candle










I recently started dropping a pretty penny on fancy candles usually around the holidays when I feel stressed out or want to treat myself. The candle has scents of liquid amber, nutmeg, cinnamon and sugar. It has a slightly sweet and spicy scent without being overwhelming. The beautiful glass container is decorated with abstract colors of red, gold and green which represents the embrace of a "large autumnal tree". Not my favorite scent from them, but a favorite of my SO and guests.

Julep - Luxe Up Your Lips - Poppy




















The Zamac tip provides cool relief, soothe lips and boost microcirculation. The lip treatment is enriched with pumpkin seed oil and vitamin E to enrich, hydrate, sooth and plump lips. I was excited to try it but when I opened the cardboard box, the formula was all clumpy and impossible to come out.  The lip treatment also goes on sheer and leaves my lips smooth and soft. The lip treatment also had unappealing taste and scent. Definitely not one of my favorite lip treatments and a completely waste of money.

Frais Hand Sanitizer

Photo Source: Frais
It seems every consumer commodity is coming out with a luxe version.  Hand sanitizers are no different when joining the fray.  Frais hand sanitizer is known as the luxury hand sanitizer and is packed with essential oils and is sugarcane alcohol based. The hand sanitizer moisturized my hands more than the regular triclosan and alcohol based sanitizers. It smells refreshing thanks to the ginger, tangerine, grapefruit, basil, and lemon myrtle.  While I do like this hand sanitizer it leaves my hand feeling a bit sticky [not as bad as sticky candy] after using, just like Purell.
