L'Occitane Beauty Easter Egg

Pamper yourself or a loved one this Easter with the ultimate Easter Egg gift from L’Occitane.

Save your calories and your waist line by indulging in this Cherry Blossom Beauty Easter Egg (£15).

Costing not all that much more than a regular run-of-the-mill large chocolate egg is this gorgeous gift which offers so much more than just a moment of pleasure!

Packed into the beautifully illustrated egg shaped tin are a trio of hero products from the Cherry Blossom collection.

Hidden inside and waiting to delight your body, mind and soul are;

Cherry Blossom Shower Gel, 75ml

Cherry Blossom Scented Soap, 50g

Cherry Blossom Hand Cream, 10ml

For those of you unfamiliar with the Cherry Blossom range from L’Occitane; think soft and sweet and delicately floral notes which envelop your senses and calm your mind.

The Cherry Blossom collection captures the poetic beauty of springtime in Provence where flowering cherry trees colour the Luberon Hills and perfume the air.

You might say it is the perfect springtime scent.

I adore this set. If you aren’t familiar with this particular collection then it allows you the perfect opportunity to try it and if you are a long-time fan then you are now the lucky recipient of the cutest minis!

The shower gel foams wonderfully in the shower, gently cleaning your skin with masses of soft, frothy bubbles, leaving behind its delicate, feminine and fresh scent.

The cute little scented soap looks very sweet sat in my bathroom and makes washing my hands a pleasure while the Cherry Blossom Petal-Soft hand cream does just what it says on the tube.

Enriched with Vitamin E and Shea Butter this thick, rich and yet not at all heavy or greasy, delightful hand cream instantly nourishes and moisturises your skin to leave your hands feeling indulgently soft and smooth.

I adore this wonderful little spring time gift set and think it is the perfect alternative to chocolate gifts this Easter.

L’Occitane’s Cherry Blossom Beauty Easter Egg is available now and costs £15.

Cadbury's Easter Offerings 2018

It’s that time of the year again!

With Easter just 4 days away its time to wake up and smell the chocolate, remember that it IS only 4 days away and head to the local shops to panic buy 5 billion eggs for friends and family.

Ok so I may have just been describing what happens in my house. I’m sure you’re all much more organised than me. Anyway, I digress.

When it comes to choosing Easter eggs there really is only one brand for us and that is Cadburys.

Classic, sweet and delicious it is the favourite brand throughout my family and thanks to their expansive range of eggs and gifts of differing shapes, sizes and prices there really is an egg for everyone.

Of this year’s offerings several stood out to me as winners guaranteed to put smiles on the faces of everyone from my almost-2-year-old to her grandad.

First up is this super cute Cadbury Dairy Milk Peter Rabbit Easter Egg and Toy Pack (RRP £6.99).

This gorgeous gift contains a simple yet scrummy child-sized Cadbury easter egg with a cuddly Peter Rabbit or Flopsy soft toy from the new Peter Rabbit film which is out at cinemas now.

I don’t like to ply my little ones with huge amounts of chocolate at Easter so this gift is perfect!

Just look at cute the bunny is and trust me, after they’ve seen the film they are definitely going to want one of these!

For £6.99 I think it’s a pretty fab price for the toy and chocolate- you’ll pay more than that for other brands of Peter Rabbit soft toys so it’s a double winner in my opinion.

 

Another top pick of mine is the Wispa Gold Egg. This large egg comes with two full sized Wispa gold bars and is just beyond delicious.

I’ve always loved the lightness of a Wispa bar and love the added decadence of caramel in the Wispa Golds so for me this ticks every box going!

Last but by no means least is the crème de la crème of Cadburys Easter 2018 picks- Friends, meet the Cadbury Dairy Milk Fruit & Nut Ultimate Easter Egg.

With a slightly more expensive RRP of £12 this huge egg is very special.

If you are a fan of the humble fruit and nut bar, prepare to have your dreams realised as Cadbury have created an egg which contains hidden pieces of fruit and nut within the shell itself.

Yep. The egg is essentially a fruit and nut bar.

Mind. Blown.

If that wasn’t enough to satisfy you there’s also a sharing bar of Fruit & Nut included too.

Quite frankly I think this is an inspired move by Cadbury who have also added this extra special touch to their Daim egg too.

Bravo Cadbury, looks like we’ll be having a Fruit & Nut and Dairy Milk Easter in our household this year!
