Take Some Time | Wellbeing with Jet 2*

Hey friends,

I've been wanting to write this post for a while now but ironically, I've not had the time! But nevertheless, Winter is officially upon us (insert Game of Thrones gif featuring John Snow covered in, well, snow...) The days are getting shorter, the evenings darker, and the nights colder. It's easy to just want to cuddle up into a little ball and hide away from it all. But it's SO important to take some time off to de-stress and relax.

 I was kindly sent a wellness hamper from the lovely team at Jet 2, so I thought I'd show you what I received whilst giving you some tips on how to look after numero uno. Sound good? Good.

November Lust List & Christmas Gift Guide

So I have eyes bigger than my stomach when it comes to beauty products (actually food too), i.e. I want EVERYTHING, regardless of whether I have the money for it or not. *Crying face*

In an attempt to stop spending I'm going to make a beauty/fashion wishlist every month on my blog, of all the things I'm lusting after. (Mind you, I'll probably end up giving into a fair few of them but at least I'm trying.)

This month's lust list is also a Christmas gift guide for any makeup lover, like myself, so hopefully a few of you might find it useful when doing your Christmas shopping for friends, even if you do end up keeping the presents for yourself... (We've all done it, I'm not judging).

Some of the items are more general, but I'll give a couple of examples in those cases.

Scentsational

I'm going to start this post with a little disclaimer:

If you are from the UK and are offended by images of Bath and Body Works candles then look away now...

But seriously, why don't we have a Bath and Body Works in England? *cries*

I like candles as much as the next girl, but up until recently, have never actually bought one for myself, usually opting instead to spend my money on makeup and clothes (shocker!). I've always wanted to like Yankee Candles but they don't have a shop near me, and anywhere that does stock their candles only seems to have the scents that I find a little too sickly-sweet. Anyone else? And also big candles are such a commitment, that I wouldn't dare order them online!

So when I was on holiday in Florida, I went to a Bath and Body Works outlet that had their biggest, 3 wick candles for $12 instead of $22 so naturally I bought twenty!!!! (Not really, I just got two, my suitcase wouldn't have fit any more sadly - Damn you Virgin Airlines baggage restrictions)

The two I bought are Citron Cedarwood from their 'Cork and Vine' collection, and Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin from their Autumn/Halloween collection.
