Oh, my! It's been quite awhile since I've updated our blog. I've got to change that, oui? Been a bit busy on orders, updating labels and the web shop, social media and more...it can be a lot for little ole' me to do but I'm gonna try to get this sweet little pink blog updated more than I have been doing. What better way to start then to show you what we've been working on and added to the shop. *warm smiles*

This is our newest soy candle! Our "Marie Antoinette" Roses and More Roses Candle. It comes in our signature pink tins and is a pretty baby pink in color. It smells like a sublime rose garden on a sunny summer day!! Tres Magnifique! We've topped it with organic rosebuds and rose petals and of course LOTS of glitter. When I think of Marie Antoinette I tend to think of pretty baby pink and baby blues so I wanted to incorporate that into this candle. We have a baby pink sparkly glitter, a touch of gold glitter, pink heart shaped glitter and a pop of blue glitter that we use in the same named nail polish! 

What do you think? So pretty, oui? If only you could smell it...mmmmm, heavenly! 

You can find it here on our web shop. Happy Shopping pretties!

FASHION ♥ Shein Rose Bralette ♥

Hey babes! So lately I've found myself gravitating towards roses everything. I mean, roses are so classic and just plain gorgeous. When I saw this bralette I knew I needed to get it. It's sooo pretty and was actually quite affordable. The quality is totally fabulous too for the price. So take a peek at my photos and how about we listen to some music too. Love the aesthetics of this video, "Mermaid Motel" from Lana Del Rey.❤️

Look how pretty the rose appliques are and they're SO soft too. 
It's sooo comforable. I adore bralettes! I have a strawberry one coming as well from Topshop! I had to include a closeup of that gorgeous pink wallet too. Look at the little bow! 
❤️❤️❤️ Sooooo darling. ❤️❤️❤️

You can find this pretty bralette here>>> Shein.

GIVEAWAY ♥ A Very English Christmas! ♥

Hey pretty babes...I thought I'd do a little giveaway and feature some of our pretty potions from our Christmas Collection, "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!" in this post. First, let's check out these goodies and what they are! Yay! We recently had a little custom Christmas order from our Custom Bar Collection and we just had to snap a few pretty photos. These beauties are scented in our "A Very English Christmas" Rose Jam scent. Such a pretty & heavenly sweet sniff...fresh citrus, red rose petals, hints of innocent strawberry, musk and vanilla. Heavens...

When designing the labels we opted for a pretty pink gingham...one of our most favorite patterns *wink* and a pretty blue themed illustration of a lovely English lady. She's just sooo darling!! I love the popping color combo, don't you? We whipped up three lovely potions below, a golden shimmery dry body oil, an Organic Aloe based perfume mist and a delicate and softening body and hair powder. Aren't they so pretty? They'd be perfect to display on your vanity or heck, even anywhere peeps can see them. They're way too pretty to be kept hidden away, am I right? *wink*

The body powder is made with a mixture of arrowroot powder for it's softening qualities and kaolin clay for it's oil absorbing qualities. It's colored a delicate pink just like the bottle itself. The cap is a pretty sparkly pink twist on cap. Ahhh, and it smells soooo amazing. Just twist off the cap and lightly tap some of the pink powder into your hand. You can use it to dust all over your body or even in your hair to help absorb any excess oils and of course it'll make your tresses smell delightful.

Next, we have our perfume mist made with Organic Aloe! in the same scent. It comes in a gorgeous glass perfume bottle that you can mist over your skin any time of the day for a burst of English Christmas Cheer. They're very popular little pretties and small enough to put in your purse and carry around with you all day. Your friends will be asking you where you got such a pretty little potion and of course, we know you'll tell them..."Margarita Bloom!" *warm smiles*

Finally, our "A Very English Christmas" Rose Jam Shimmery Golden Dry Body Oil. This stuff is gorgeous! First of all, can we just admire the bottle...it's made in France. Oui, in France. Ooh, la, la! If we could have found one made in England we would have...haha...it would have been better with the English theme but France is just as nice. *wink* It has a lovely heavy feeling to it... sooo elegant. Again, our lovely "Rose Jam" scent...fresh citrus, red rose petals, hints of innocent strawberry, musk and vanilla. 

This dry body oil is a lovely combination of Organic Sunflower Oil, Organic Jojoba Oil, Olive Oil,  and more with a shimmery, mesmerizing subtle golden glow to t! Perfect to get sparkling for the holidays. Simply, spray it into your hand and slather all over for a goldeny glow and get ready to sniff yourself....constantly. You're going to smell delicious! *haha* Our Shimmer Dry Body Oil comes in a sparkly organza bag with an info card inside.

What do you think? Dreamy and full of Christmas Cheer? I wish you could smell these potions through your computer. Sigh... to find these body treats just click to our home page and look at the bottom right hand corner...you'll see a link to our PDF Catalog of our "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year"!! Christmas Collection where you'll find prices and scent options for the products listed.

♥ REVIEW: Corioliss, Tangle Teezer, and Bella & Bear ♥

Can't the weekend last a little bit longer? I've been going through a sleep marathon and just don't want to stop but I did find some time to put together this sweet little post about some of the haircare items I've been using lately. I always get such lovely comments about how pretty my hair looks so thought why not share what tools I use with you to get my hair looking perfectly coiffed.   

I have been obsessed with this little Corioliss Vintage Hairdryer ever since I saw it a few years ago. I just couldn't get it out of my mind and I'm happy to say I finally got it! It's just the cutest thing ever!

It comes in such a pretty blue box with a little cutout so you can see the hairdryer and even comes with a blue travel bag. This is a travel hairdryer so it's smaller than a typical hairdryer. I like that it's smaller in size not only because I can take it with me when I travel but also because it doesn't strain my arm when I use it. The design is one of the reasons, if not the top reason, I wanted to get it. I mean, look at those pretty pink roses and the gorgeous blue color of it. I had to have it. I'm a sucker for roses. I even kept the packaging. It's too pretty to throw away. 

The dryer actually came all the way from London to me so one of the things you'll notice is that the plug is not US compatible. I purchased mine at LookFantastic.com or you can go straight to the Corioliss website. It has a UK Three Pin Plug. It can even work in Europe as well. I had to get an adapter so I could of course use it in the USA which wasn't a problem at all. I looked it up on Amazon and got one here for a very affordable $6. Worked great and blended in with the black plug on the hair dryer so you can't even tell you have an adapter on it.  

One thing to notice on the hair dryer is that you can change the voltage and if you're in the USA you want to make sure it's on 120 volts or you could pop a circuit. Thankfully, that never happened to me. It also has 2 heat settings; low and high. I'm totally in love with it and to keep it brand new I only use every once in awhile so it doesn't get banged up from too much use. If it ever does get banged up you can be sure I'll be getting another one. heehee... and to think they even have a flat iron in the same design!!! I'll be saving up for that pretty little gem. You can find the flat iron here at Urban Outfitters. 

Next up, are the two main brushes I use for my hair when styling. Let's talk about the Tangle Teezer! It's the hot pink brush below. I got this from an @influenster box and it's probably the one thing I got from Influenster that I use every single day. It NEVER fails to get the tangles out. I mean never! and my hair can get massive tangles. It is well worth the money to invest in one of these. I've used other brushes that claim they'll get the tangles out but I keep going back to the Tangle Teezer. It works. It's priced at $16 at Urban Oufitters and well worth the money. Plus, it's hot pink! What's not to love? And it's kind of indestructible. I've dropped mine twice and it even popped apart but I just snapped it back together and good as new.

My newest addition is this prettiest of them all "The Bear" paddle brush! It's from Bella and Bear and just about the prettiest little, or should I say big! brush I've ever seen. I think you know why I fell in love with it. The pretty roses and polka dot design that goes with my Corioliss Hair Dryer of course! When it comes to brushes I tend to lean towards paddle brushes because they smooth out my hair like no other. I really love the feel of this company and their packaging...cute, retro and fun! You can get the brush from Amazon here and I definitely recommend it. It's just so utterly feminine and adorable, makes my hair look fabulous and is sooo pretty on a vanity tabletop. What more could you ask for?! 

I know! How about a giveaway?!! *wink wink* Bella and Bear would LOVE to give someone else a chance to try their products out and so that's why we're working with them to put together this sweet giveaway for that gorgeous Bella and Bear The Bear Paddle Brush above! Yay!! All you have to do to enter is fill out the rafflecopter below with as many entries as you can before it's over.

Review ♡ STEAMCREAM: Simply Precious! ♡

I love cremes. I love...love...love them! So when I came across this fabulous brand STEAMCREAM I knew I wanted to try their brand. The first thing that always captures my heart is packaging...I LOVE pretty packaging which I'm sure you knew....giggle... and they don't disappoint with their adorable tins! 

This little beauty traveled all the way to me from the UK where the crème itself is made and the vast array of pretty tin designs are actually done up in Japan. I decided to choose their “Precious” themed tin because it's in my favorite two colors, pinks and purples and it has little posies all over it...perfect for Spring. Oui! The little tins are made from aluminum and definitely keep the product itself fresh and no leaking at all if you're worried about carrying it in your purse. And after I use up my lovely crème, I can use the tin for storing anything like sweet little bobby pins, or even small jewelry to bring with me in my purse.

The crème itself is so lovely...it has a cool feeling to it and is shiny and white to look at. The consistency is that of almost like pudding but a more luxurious silky pudding if that makes sense. It smooths on perfectly, really moisturizes your skin and soaks in wonderfully & fast. The smell you ask? I thought you'd never ask! It smells of lavender and herbal romantic summer nights. Yep, that's what it reminds me of. It makes me daydream about hot summer nights...almost dusk walking hand and hand with a handsome fella smelling oh, so lovely & girlish. Le sigh...such a lovely scent. I really love it and I'm not really an herbally type of girl.

You may be asking why do they call themselves Steamcream, well quite simply because they use steam to emulsify their crème! How fancy smancy! Here's their description from their website.

“The power and energy produced by high pressure STEAM melts and fuses the raw vegan ingredients at a speed that defies most traditional cream-making methods. This force and intensity emulsifies the ingredients immediately, producing a beautifully textured, fast absorbing cream. This light and glossy emulsion is held together so gently, that it allows the cream to break down immediately on contact with the skin. Plant extracts including oatmeal, orange flower water, jojoba oil and lavender essential oils can get to where they are needed, instantly. STEAMCREAM uses STEAM to emulsify the cream. This creates a loose, glossy emulsion that can break down easily on the skin. In addition, STEAMCREAM is packed with twelve, 100% naturally active ingredients to make your skin the best it can be – naturally. ” via the STEAMCREAM website.

Pretty darn neat if you ask moi! And you know what else is fabulous? You can use this crème on your face, hands and body and it's acceptable for all skin types. Booyah! I mainly use it on my face...it really makes me feel refreshed and doesn't break me out at all. Believe me, my skin is pretty darn sensitive so I was relieved when it didn't effect my skin except in a good way...moisturizing and plumping up my skin. I also love to use it on my hands as they can get quite dry after washing them. It's also Vegan! Bonus for all you Vegan peeps out there and they don't test on animals.

“STEAMCREAM contains orange flower, which is particularly beneficial for dry and sensitive skin while ingredients such as blue chamomile, rose and lavender essential oils all work together to calm, tone and soothe the skin beautifully.” via the STEAMCREAM website.

I've got my eye on a few of their other tins as well. I do love a fabulous Union Jack and the pretty roses and they even have a tin that looks like Blue Jeans! (Which of course reminds me of the song by Lana Del Rey!) I really love the product and I can tell you that I'll be back for more! Two thumbs up from this Beauty Princess. *wink*
