Swaul

Hallo!

Like the name of this post!!? So I recently done a swap with Laura over at all-made-up-21. (therefore this is a mix of a swap and a haul.... a Swaul!!! - god i'm sad!) It sounds a bit cracked really, doing a swap with someone in my own country, but when she contacted I said ya shur why not, it'll be a bit of excitement and a surprise - plus its nice to be nice. Another and the main reason though was that she kindly offered to get me an Inglot lipstick that I wanted seeing as though I don't live in Dublin :( Here's what she sent me!

HOW excited was I too see these Inglot products fall out of the bag!! The minute I opened the package I got the gorgeous fresh citrus-ey smell - of course the Yankee candle in Sparkling Lemon.

The OPI nail varnish is right up my street!

When I saw this orange and white tube I hadn't a clue what it was. On further inspection I realised it was some sort of balm - it's official name being - Inglot Lip Defence Treatment in number 03. This isn't listed on the website but I found the following on Inglot Irelands Facebook Page:

Sounds nice eh! It has a slight light nude colour

I'm going to leave the lipstick and lipgloss for my next post to review them a bit more in depth! Excited!! Woo! Thanks for reading!

Slán!

Yankee Candles

Hey everyone!

Just wanted to get your advice on Yankee Candles. I called into the shop a few weeks ago and was overwhelmed by the choice they had. I decided to buy a few small ones and test them out to see which ones I liked best before buying the full size ones. I learned they have "tarts" and "votives" (which I got 25% off on!). I picked up this lot:

There's a bit of a mix in there!! I also bought a little glass "Rolly Polly"!! I've tried the Strawberry Buttercream and French vanilla (which I liked) and Water Garden (which I wasn't mad about) Last week like a feckin eejet I opened one of the tarts and to my surprise there was no wick in it. I was like "Great" :( But it felt weird, and looked weird! I went on the website and disovered that the tarts are not actually candles, they are just wax to be melted on a burner. Felt like a right mog!! I must now buy a burner thingi. Anyone have any nice ones. I've only seen old fashioned not particularly nice looking ones!! There are some pricey enough ones on the website!

Prices:

Wax Tarts - €1.50

Votives - €1.87 (normally €2.50)

Glass Holder - €1.50

Here's a link to the Irish Yankee Candles Online Store in case you don't have a supplier near you and want to try :) If you have fallen in love with a particular scent, let me know and I'll try it out!! I love candles so will definitely continue to search for the perfect scent!
