The perfect treat at the end of a long day on your feet. You can find this gift set in Morrisons, Debenhams and on Amazon. This gift set has an RRP of £8.

Body treats gift set:

The first thing I want to mention about this gift set is that the packaging is beautiful, but then again, Baylis & Harding always have the most beautiful packaging. This gift set contains a body polisher, a 250g tub of bath crystals (when I opened these and the scent blew me away), a 500ml bottle of shower crème, and a 500ml bottle of body lotion. Pamper yourself, set the scene with some candles. Jump in the shower or run a nice hot bath and relax. After, finish with the body lotion. What a perfect way to spend a Valentine's evening with some self love. This can be purchased from Amazon and Debenhams. This has an RRP of £18.

Prosecco van:

Baylis & Harding Christmas gift guide 2017*

Hi everyone,

I hope everyone is having a lovely December so far!

Some people may have already brought all of their Christmas gifts, others maybe half way through and some may be stuck for ideas. This is where I am pretty sure I can help you.

Baylis & Harding have some beautiful gifts that bring affordable luxury into everyone's life. They definitely have something for everyone.

Something for him...

Are you looking for the perfect secret Santa present? Maybe you are looking for the perfect stocking filler? This Baylis & Harding wash bag duo with Citrus and Lime goodies inside could be just what you are after! This would also be perfect for an 'extra' gift. 

This little gift comes with a hair and body wash and a aftershave balm. They are the prefect minis and smell so refreshing! The wash bag is a brilliant size for when he goes on holiday or for any trips away. You can buy this gift on Amazon for an amazing £5.95!

Something for her...

The next couple of gifts are perfect for secret Santa gifts or stocking fillers.

The first is the Baylis & Harding Midnight Fig and Pomegranate body wash. You can buy this on Amazon for just £4! It's the perfect Christmas scent to receive. I have to say the packaging is beautiful on this product, the colour scheme and design is perfect. If I received this I could imagine myself having a nice soak in the bath after the festivities of Christmas day and wash with this.

Another idea for a stocking filler is this cute little bath.

This golden bath comes with a 50ml shower crème and a 30ml body butter. The smell doesn't differ from shower gel to body butter, which is nice as you don't have a mismatch of scents. It is also such an invigorating scent. You can pick this little set up on Amazon for £9.79.

For a teenage girl (or someone into sweet smells)...

Teenagers can sometimes be pretty hard to buy for. The Baylis & Harding Beauticology Carnival treats perfect partners gift set is the perfect sweet treat. I mean, I'm 21 and I love the scent of both products.

This fun set comes with a 250ml tub of 'Sweet caramel popcorn' body butter and a 300ml bottle of 'candy apple' shower gel. I am quite funny with scents of body butters and I was a little worried about the sound of this one. However, when I opened it my first reaction was 'oh wow!' It is just the right amount of sweet for me. However, it could be a little too sweet for someone who doesn't like a strong sweet scent. When applied to the skin it's not as sweet as in the tub, it's actually quite subtle. I find myself lifting my arm to smell it.

Something for Mum...

Before becoming a Mum I used to wonder why these sets were so special. Now, I get it. It's pure bliss when you get to be able to pamper yourself with a lovely gift set. Especially when someone has thought of you and gifted you something to do so with.

This gift set comes 250ml of crème brûlée & cocoa body butter, 300ml of crème brûlée & cocoa refresing body cleanser, a body polisher and it is all presented nicely in a wicker basket that Mum (or whoever the recipient is) to put all of their pamper time goodies in. My favourite in this is the body butter, its so luxurious! You can buy this from Amazon for £16.68.

For the candle lovers...

I was blown away buy the packaging of this candle. Can we just take a second to appreciate how beautiful it is! This is pure Christmas luxury. You could even buy this for yourself as a cute decoration around the house.

Now you may or may not know I have a fear of candles, so I gave this to my Mum to light. Whenever I go past her bedroom, it just smells of Christmas. I am hoping she will bring it to the kitchen to light when she cooks Christmas dinner. This candle comes in at an amazing price of £13.25 and you can buy it from Amazon.

A home wear gift...

I love this Baylis & Harding hand was. Its is the same 'Midnight fid & pomegranate' scent as the body wash above. I feel this one is a little stronger than the body wash but it is not over powering. I love the Christmas design that carries through the Baylis and Harding Christmas range. It is nice that you can add a little bit of Christmas cheer to your bathroom with this had wash. You can buy this Christmas version from either Superdrug or Tesco which is on offer until the 2/01/2018 for £1.50. If you would prefer a bottle without Christmas patterns you can pick one up on Amazon.

Which gift is your favourite?

Baylis & Harding Pocket Hand Gel 50ml

Hi everyone,

I go through pocket hand gel like nothing else. It is unbelievably handy, if you'll excuse the pun. I've tried many different brands and most of which dry my hands out terribly. Until Baylis & Harding kindly sent me this one to try.

This is the Jasmine & apple blossom luxury hand gel with added moisturisers. So the product has said it itself, it has added moisturisers. So as you can probably tell I was elated when my hands felt lovely and soft instead of them feeling in complete need for moisture. All of this whilst killing 99.9% of bacteria.

So, why do I carry one with me everywhere?

• I'm a Mum. Nappy changes and sticky fingers, I'm covered.
• Money. One of the biggest germ carriers and we pretty much touch it daily!
• Opening doors, another big germ carrier.
• Toilets that have no soap left.

I could go on with things that harbour germs. So where can you leave this Baylis & Harding hand gel?

• In the car
• Handbag
• Changing bag
• Hand luggae
• Your office

Any place that is out and about and you don't have access to hand soap, it's good to keep one near buy. This one is perfect, as it is a 50ml bottle it's completely travel friendly. Not to mention it smells lovely.

You can get this one off of Amazon for an amazing £3.95.

Where do you like to keep a pocket hand gel?

I'm washing my hands with it*

Hi everyone,

'What am I washing my hands with?' I hear you ask. Baylis & Harding hand wash!

Baylis & Harding kindly sent me a couple of their hand washes to try out. I was so pleased about this as I have been meaning to pick one up to try out for some time now. I only have one problem, why did I not just pick these up to try?!

The packaging is perfect! There is no unnecessary packaging, the bottles are perfectly rounded and sturdy. The pumps lock and unlock and I love the silver neck of the pumps. I love how the simple designs are on the bottles. The designs are the same or vary slightly on a couple of the scents, the Baylis & Harding logo is so bold you don't have to second guess yourself at a quick glance that it is a Baylis & Harding hand wash you are buying.

The first scent I tried out was 'sweet mandarin & grapefruit'. I am really into citrus scents at the moment, so this is perfect for me. I find that the balance between the sweet mandarin and grapefruit is just right. The fragrance isn't overpowering either. It is something you can use and it will stay on your hands for some time. It's not however, one of those unbearable scents that you wish would just go, it's light and refreshing. As for the consistency of the hand wash it's not thick and its not too runny. I don't really like thick hand washes as I feel like I use more than I should.

The next fragrance I received was 'jasmine & apple blossom'. I've never really had a hand wash in this sort of scent before. They are always either original scents, citrus or unusual scents, so it was nice to have a change of fragrance. This hand wash has 'added moisturisers' and honestly, I can tell! my hands still feel super soft about 2 to 3 hours later. I have to be really careful with what I use on my hands as they tend to flare up in a rash and can become dry and my skin can split easy. I had no problem using both of these on my hands. This particular hand wash though, has left my hands feeling better than ever, so I will be buying the 'jasmine & apple blossom' hand wash for myself!

My overall verdict, I will defiantly be buying these for myself! I had a browse on Amazon where you can buy the 'sweet mandarin & grapefruit' and 'jasmine & apple blossom' hand washes and I love the sound of all of the fragrances. I particularly want to try 'eucalyptus & mint' because how refreshing and invigorating does this sound?! Also, I would like to try the 'jojoba, silk & almond oil' as this just sounds so luxurious.

Which hand wash would you like to try?

Everything Daddy needs in the Ultimate Men's Kit by Baylis & Harding*

Hi everyone,

Father's Days is just around the corner and you may be wondering 'what should gift do I get?' If my partner is anything to go by, this could be difficult. He is so fussy! He doesn't like this and he doesn't like that. That problem is resolved for me with the 'Ultimate Men's Kit' from Baylis & Harding. I handed this one over to my partner as he know's best when it comes to men's products. The products are all 'citrus lime and mint' scented.

Here is what is in the Baylis & Harding 'Ultimate Men's Kit':

Shower gel: We both loved this. The scent is perfect! It's so refreshing and still holds a manly scent to it. We both thought the packaging of this was well designed and we loved the colour scheme. It has an easy screw cap. It's the perfect size for travelling with and contains 130ml of product.

Hair and body wash: This is a big hit with my partner. He has thick hair and lots of it too. This is great for him as it is an all in one product. He loves the scent as well so to have it for his hair as well as a body wash, it gets 100+ points from him. Again we love the colour scheme, I personally love how bright the bottle is. Again, this has a screw cap but at the top this time and it's not difficult to get the product out of the bottle. Scent wise, it's nice that the scent doesn't differ from the shower gel and still holds that refreshing but manly scent. You get 300ml in the bottle.

Aftershave Balm: Another hit with my boyfriend. I constantly moan about him shaving his beard off. Literally from the moment that bit of stubble starts appearing, it needs to come off! My face is so sensitive so I only need to be caught with a little bit of his beard and that's me out in a rash. Again, the scent carries from the two above products and i personally think its a little stronger. I like this as it means after shaving, his face will smell really nice and possibly linger for longer. The packaging has the screw cap at the bottom and the product is easy to squeeze out. The tube is also handy for travel and contains 130ml.

Cleansing soap: My partner is looking forward to using this. He very rarely bothers with buying things like this unless they are gifted to him. We were both so impressed that the scent didn't very from product to product and it stayed consistent. You get 150g of product with the soap and i think this will last quite a while. I love the fact it comes in it's own little box.

Toiletry bag: Even the toiletry bag carries the colour scheme! It's a lovely handy bag with zip fastenings. It has one compartment in the middle which is enough room for the essentials. There is also a handy zip pocket at the front, handy for popping little bits in and maybe a comb.

This gift is perfect for Dad's and Granddad's of any age. You can find this (RRP: £25) and more ideas for Father's Day here.

Mothers Day Gift Guide 2017: Last Minute Gifts with Baylis & Harding*

Hi everyone,

Mother's Day is approaching quickly and is this Sunday! It will also be my first Mother's Day as a Mummy myself! So, I thought it would be fitting to do a mothers day gift guide featuring Baylis & Harding!

Baylis & Harding are a brand I have known for years and quite often a brand I would gift to my own Mum. The gifts they bring out are affordable and have that luxury feel and quality to them, just what any Mum needs!

I was lucky enough to be sent one of their products to review. The set I recieved was the Pink Prosecco and Cassis Luxury foot set.

Pink Prosecco & Cassis Luxury Foot Set

The first thing I said when I opened the parcel was 'FLUFFY SOCKS!' and to my disappointment my Mum who watched me open the parcel also had her eye on the socks. So Baylis and Harding are on to a winner there with me and my Mum and that's just with the socks. (Also cheap Mother's Day for me a pair of fluffy socks and Mum's happy! Only joking, I won't just buy my mum socks.)

Here's what you get in the set:

White fluffy socks, Soothing foot lotion and Foot soak crystals

First I put about half the packet (packet contains 25g of crystals) of foot soak crystals (as I only have little feet) into a bowl of warm water and for about 15 minutes I just sat there completely indulged. It was so nice to just sit and relax for a little while and take a load off my feet.

After I had dried my feet I took a bit of the foot lotion and began to rub it into my feet. You get a 50ml tube and you only need a bit as a little goes a long way! The first reaction I had to the lotion was the smell! It smells heavenly! It's a fruity and sweet scent but not over powering. My Mum is yet to smell this as I am worried that once she smells it, I won't get it back. The lotion itself is beautifully smooth and sinks into your skin like a dream! They definitely got the name of the set right, it definitely feels luxury! My feet feel amazingly smooth and soft.

After, I put the fluffy socks on and they are super soft! They topped of my pampering session well! As I mentioned above it was nice to take a little me time and pamper myself, so thank you for this treat Baylis & Harding!

You can buy this set on Amazon. (RRP £8)
