Their collection of gifts are designed to allow you to relax, unwind and take some well deserved you time.

 

 

Featuring a deeply relaxing and comforting blend of lavender and chamomile essential oil, their collection of products are guaranteed to be a hit be cause who doesn’t love a little pampering and R&R.

Their Gift Of Sleep Set (£20) Is a great introduction to the brand it is the perfect duo to help you drift off into a peaceful slumber.

 

 

Light the delicately scented candle an hour or so prior to bedtime and enjoy as the calming, quieting aromas fill your room.

Breathe in the relaxing aroma and feel your troubles melt away.

(Just don’t forget to blow it out before you actually do fall asleep!)

 

 

Next, spritz the pillow spray over your pillow and the top part of your bedding as you get into bed and feel yourself physically and mentally unwind and relax.

Fancy something a little different?

Take a look at the Feather & Down Sleep Stones (£18).

Presented in a deep blue presentation box and nestled safely inside in a gold tin you’ll find a plethora of porous black stones along with a small bottle of essential oil.

 

 

Much in the same way a scented candle or diffuser works, these stones help to fragrance your home with the same soothing sent as the pillow spray and candle.

To use, simply place the tin on a flat surface and empty the stones into the tin.

 Add some drops of the essential oil directly onto the stones to release the calming aroma of lavender and chamomile. 

 

 

Make sure you top up the stones with the essential oil every evening to prolong the relaxing experience.

I’ve never seen such a product before and I must admit I really like it!

 

 

It looks ‘different’ and is naturally safter than burning candles, though candles will always hold a special place in my heart.

Considering the cost of some competitor products I think these are really reasonably priced and make beautiful looking gifts.

 

 

You can get your hands on these products plus a whole host of other Feather & Down goodies online now.

Last but by no means least we have what is probably my favourite product that I’ve tried thus far, the Lavender Moon Body & Pillow Mist (£12).

 

I’ve been using pillow mists for years and I wouldn’t be without them now and this one is just divine.

This fabulously soothing and calming mist features a water based formula infused with Pacifica’s signature plant-powered aromatherapy blend scented with relaxing lavender, aromatic rose and soft, creamy vanilla.

 

Just before you lay your head on your pillow to sleep, lightly mist your body, pillow and sheets with this gorgeous spray and take some long, slow, deep breaths.
