Ted Baker Christmas Treats

Ted Baker A Regency Romance Collection

Packaged ready to pop into the stocking of someone special this Regency Romance Collection from Ted Baker is just adorable. Reflecting the Britishness of Ted Baker this collection is a nod to Regency Britain and the packaging  features quintessentially English Regency House designs. It’s so pretty, not to mention the sweet bulldogs inside each box. What a lovely touch that is.

This Regency Romance Collection consists of three scents, and each of the three scents has a matching Body Wash & Body Lotion. No 1 Bridlesmith Gate & No 1 Langley Court, No 2 Regents Square & Upperbrook Mews and No 3 Furburts Place & Brompton Crescent. They come in pretty pastel coloured packaging which is subtle and looks luxurious.

I’ve been trying out two products from the range

No2 Upperbrook Mews Body Lotion*

With an air of lady-like glamour, sweet sugary tones of nude pink with neon accents are used to present the delightful No 2 collection. With a sumptuous mix of freesia, peach and amber, this Body Wash and Lotion will ensure you dazzle from morning to evening.

This is a lovely lightly scented body lotion, so it’s not going to take away from your perfume. It smells fresh, floral & quite sophisticated. I love that it has a pump, this makes it so easy to use and ensures you get just the right amount of product. It has a light creamy consistency and I like that the formula isn’t too thick it makes it easy to apply to your skin, and it absorbs quickly too. I have been using it on my upper body more as I like how this lotion is light and not greasy on my skin. I tend to use a body oil on my legs as they get very dry.

No3 Brompton Crescent Body Wash*

Fragranced with a lavish blend of lemon, jasmine and amber crystal teamed with fresh shades of mint green, No 3 is a little touch of luxury that will leave you feeling royally pampered.

This is my favourite of the two scents I’ve tried, it smells floral and would be perfect for Spring & bright sunny mornings. The scent is uplifting and quite fragrant. If you like your body wash to lather up then this is for you, it leaves your skin feeling clean and soft. I have been using it most mornings as I refuse to accept Winter is here. This is my little slice of Spring. This also comes with a pump, which is so convenient in the shower. I wish all body products came with a pump, that would make everything so much easier.

Ted Baker A Regency Romance

Ted Baker always releases great collections, and especially at Christmas. If you’re looking for a Secret Santa gift or just something beautiful but budget friendly, then I recommend checking out this Regency Romance Collection. It’s beautifully packaged and the scents I have tried would work well for anyone.

The new Ted Baker Regency collection is now available from selected Boots stores nationwide and online at www.boots.com

Products that are marked with an * have either been sent to me for my consideration or I’ve received at events. I’m under no obligation to review them on my blog. However if I do, the reviews are 100% my own.

Eco Tools Brush Set

ecotools1

Whilst on a Christmas present mission last week, I totally caved and bought this gorgeous Eco Tools Fresh & Flawless Brush Set. I saw it & just had to have it. For a start the brushes have pretty patterned bamboo handles, and they’re travel size, I know right – PERFECT!

Eco Tools Fresh & Flawless Brush Set Eco Tools Brush Set Eco Tools Brushes

These brushes come beautifully packaged in a book style box, on the inside cover you get a run-down of each brush and a description on how best to use them. Very handy! You get 5 brushes in this set,

Flat Concealer Brush – Ideal for Covering blemishes.

Buffing Concealer Brush – Perfect for under the eye area. This buffs concealer in like a dream.

Precision Foundation Brush – This is tapered for getting a flawless finish in those awkward areas, like around the nose & eye area.

Complex Blending Brush – This can be used for foundation but I have been using it to contour & apply bronzer as it fits perfectly into the hollow of my cheekbones.

Full Powder Brush – This is perfect for applying blusher or your setting powder. Its fluffy and dense but the brush head isn’t too big and so you can apply just the perfect amount of product.

Eco Tools Brush Set

These are soft, very, very soft brushes that are brilliant quality. They wash well and dry back to their original shape. Although they have a guide on how each brush should be used, like all brushes you find how they work for you & they’re multifunctional.

The Buffing Concealer Brush (blue) and the Complex Blending Brush (bronze) are my stand-out brushes from this kit, I have used them both everyday since I bought them. Saying that, I would be more than happy to only take these 5 brushes away with me on holiday & know that I had everything covered, as the Flat Concealer Brush (green) could be used for eyeshadow. They really are 5 brushes worth buying, for £11.99 you’d be mad not too.

This kit has stolen my heart & has been overshadowing my other brushes. They’re lovely to use and look very pretty, so that makes them perfect in my book. Do you own any Eco Tool Brushes? I’d love to hear your suggestions. Oh, & you NEED this pretty kit in your life, yes you do!
