Blogmas - Day 11 ❤ Yankee Candle 'Christmas Memories' 12 Samplers Candle Collection

I had seen this set floating around the internet for a while, and when it finally hit Littlewoods, I snapped it up as part of my Christmas present from my fiancé. A few hours after I had ordered it, it was out of stock, so I'm glad I got one. When I ordered, it was down from €25 to €20. Brilliant value, if you ask me.

The set comes with 12 votive candles, each with a 15 hour burn time. The candles are as follows:

Christmas Eve, Christmas Cookie, Christmas Rose, Snow In Love, Sparkling Cinnamon, Snowflake Cookie, Red Apple Wreath, Sugared Apple, Merry Marshmallow, Apple & Pine Needle, Cranberry Ice, Christmas Memories.

Each candle is described below... 

 The set of candles is presented so beautifully in a 'book'. I say 'book', because it looks like a huge book, but you open it to reveal the gorgeous candles. How cute is the bow? It's a velcro opening too, which I think is very handy.

I'm so in love with the whole collection! I've already started using it to make Christmas come faster (I love Christmas!) I'm currently burning Cranberry Ice, and it smells absolutely beautiful. I'll be burning Christmas Eve on... well, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Memories possibly after Christmas. I highly recommend this set, for you or someone else. It's the absolute perfect gift for any candle lover, and it looks more expensive than it actually is!

It is still available from Amazon and Yankee, but is still sold out on Littlewoods.

Blogmas - Day 10 ❤ Daniel Sandler Luxury Matte Lipstick in 'Casablanca'

This lipstick is part of a prize I won, which you can read about here!

Daniel Sandler Luxury Matte Lipstick in Casablanca

I was dying to try it when I received it yesterday, but I held off until I had taken these pictures for my blog this morning... dedication at it's finest! I love this colour; it's a beautiful deep wine red. It's such a classy and sophisticated matte colour, and it's so pigmented. Perfect, as there is nothing worse than having to apply four coats of a lipstick to see a hint of colour. This one glides on like a dream and is so moisturising. It's quite long-lasting, and hasn't bled at all (I applied it around 1.30pm and it's still there after a cup of tea! It's now after 6.30pm). Casablanca is the ideal colour for Christmas, instead of my usual blood red Christmas lip-colour. I'll definitely be wearing this colour on Christmas day, and on nights out if I go out. It will be beautiful with a neutral eye and a slick of liquid liner. It retails at £13.25 and in my opinion, it's so worth it.

Have you tried any Daniel Sandler makeup products, and if so, what do you think?
