Jonathan Ward London - Some News!

Now, you may already know how much I love Jonathan Ward candles, as I've posted about them a couple of times on here, so you'll also understand my excitement at the following pieces of news!

Firstly, Jonathan has introduced a new reed diffuser range that is available in NINE of his most popular fragrances which I am so SO excited about as it's not always convenient to light a candle, for instance, if you're not going to be home for long enough.

However, a reed diffuser can be safely left out to fragrance the room all the time, allowing you to enjoy beautiful JW scents such as Josephine's Rose, Mombasa, Kiss in Rio, Lost in El Salvador, Nightingale's Jasmine, Dance in Summer Rain, Velvet Moss Rose, Santissima Amalfi, Kartushya and Gypsy, any time you like.

First to launch will be Nightingale's Jasmine, priced at £32 for 250mls of alcohol free oil, which should last 2-3 months, and so is actually fantastic value for money, when you consider it would only cost about £2.60 per week.

Now on to the next bit of news, which is great for those of you who may have had difficulties in getting hold of JW candles because you couldn't smell them first hand, because now you'll be able to, since Jonathan Ward products are going to be stocked in leading House of Fraser stores from March 2012. They will also be available on the House of Fraser website too. The stores stocking JW products are:

Edinburgh
Manchester
Birmingham
Guildford
London City
Bluewater
Dundrum
Belfast
Westfield
London Oxford Street
Cardiff
Glasgow
Meadowhall
Reading
Leeds
High Wycombe
London Victoria
Lakeside
Bristol
Loch Lomond Shores
Cheltenham
Maidstone

I absolutely love that more people will be able to see, and get hold of these exquisite candles and hope that this newly formed relationship continues for a long time to come.

You can still buy from the Jonathan Ward website, if you know which fragrance you'd like to buy - and if you've never purchased before, and would like to then please email me with your name and email address as I can now refer you, so you get a bit of a discount, which might make that candle smell even sweeter. ;-)

Now I'm off to bed as its 3am and I need my beauty sleep. xx

Deborah Lippmann - 'Superstar' Polish!

I’ve been spending again at House of Fraser, I just can’t help myself whenever I’m out shopping – even if I’m not out shopping specifically for makeup (this trip was for holiday items)! Anyway I bought this beautiful Deborah Lippmann nail polish, ‘Superstar’ just because they still didn’t have ‘Today Was a Fairytale’ in stock... although somebody with more willpower than myself may have just walked away empty handed!

The polish is a gorgeous bronze-y, coppery brown-y colour; and whilst it’s not a particularly summer colour, it is still a beautiful one that will get a lot of use during the autumn and winter months!

I love that the glitter is not just suspended in clear polish; this means it needed less coats to get a decent finish. The photos show 2 coats, although they don’t do the polish any justice at all... the finish of this nail polish is absolutely stunning. I actually need to hide this polish once I’ve posted this as my mum has been eyeing it up ever since I showed it to her – she’s such a magpie (like me) when it comes to the shiny!

The 2 coats with no top or bottom coat (as I wanted to see how it lasted with no extra products) lasted almost 3 days with no chips which is quite good for a glitter polish, especially without the extra grip and protection of a base and top coat!

It’s not a cheap polish, coming in at about £14 (which is a bit annoying since Americans pay about the same, but in dollars – which is a lot cheaper) but I do think it’s worth it – especially if you feel like really treating yourself!

Available at House of Fraser stores and online!

Deborah Lippmann 'Boom Boom Pow' Nail Polish - Swatches!

This beautiful Deborah Lippmann polish first appeared on my radar probably around Christmas (2010) on the Scrangie website, and I have lusted after it ever since. I finally got my hands on it yesterday when my friend picked it up for me (as my local House of Fraser store never seemed to have it in stock) and it’s well worth the £18 price tag (in my opinion) as it’s every bit as stunning as I hoped it would be... plus it says it contains real 24 carat gold, how extravagant!

The great thing about this is that you can layer it up and wear it alone (it took about 4 coats to look fairly ‘done’ and give the full sparkle effect) or you can use it over the top of other polishes to add a bit of sparkle to them too.

No Flash:

Flash:

Here I have used it over the upcoming OPI polish ‘I Eat Mainly Lobster’ and it looks gorgeous, it has changed the base colour ever so slightly (it's a bit lighter & leans towards a gold-y coral) and it looks a little bit like a flakey polish in some areas (the smaller particles) which is just as lovely. 

The photo’s (all of them) don’t do it justice at all (I think because the camera picks up the individual particles too much, maybe), so I’ve done very short videos to show you a little bit more – I still don’t think they show it to be as beautiful as it is in ‘real life’ but you get the idea.

I can’t wait to wear this over a black or maybe a bronze-y brown in the autumn and winter months!!

What do you think?

Clinique & House of Fraser 'Kiss It Better' In Feb For Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity!

Pucker up this Valentine’s Day with a Clinique lipstick or gloss from House of Fraser, and not only will you look fabulous, you’ll also be giving money to a very worthy cause; as for the fourth year running Clinique will be partnering Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity for their KISS IT BETTER appeal. This appeal will raise money to fund much needed research into the causes and treatment of childhood cancer.

Clinique have created a special LE Smoothie Kisses Lip Gloss Set (£22.50 shown above), a bright pink bag containing 4 Vitamin C Lip Smoothie Glosses, in Pink Me Up, Goodness Grapecious, Nude-tricious and Mango-thon. Each kit that is sold (exclusively at House of Fraser) during the month of February will give the appeal £4 (£2 from Clinique and £2 from House of Fraser) which I think is fantastic – I do love that beauty companies do charity so well!

“Vitamin C Lip Smoothie Antioxidant Lip Colour is Clinique’s first lip product to incorporate this one-of-a-kind ingredient into its formula. And, together with Vitamin C and Pomegranate – Açaí Berry helps protect against oxidative stress, which causes premature ageing. With continued use, this powerful potion can help reduce the appearance of lip lines caused by ageing, while delivering gorgeous colour.”

If the Lip Smoothie’s aren’t your thing but you would still like to do your bit for charity then you still have an opportunity to do so, as for every lipstick or lip gloss (RRP £13.00 - 15.00) that is sold, a £2 donation will also be made to the appeal (£1 Clinique, £1 House of Fraser).

“Donation during February 2011 at Clinique counters exclusively at House of Fraser nationwide (excluding Ireland) and houseoffraser.co.uk.
