Kringle Candle haul





If you know me then you will know that I have a slight obsession with candles... I originally went onto the Kringle candle website to look for some more breakable wax potpourri, because I prefer them so much more to the yankee wax tarts, it's easier to break off and they generally have some gorgeous scents! But as always I got sucked into some deals they were doing "Buy one large crystal 2 wick pillar candle and get 10 free votives worth £21 something!" ... obviously I caved and did it because I lack any self restraint. In the photo I've only included 8 of the votives because I couldn't stand the smell of the other two they included 'Bayberry' and 'Pumpkin spice' which my mum loves so she's now the proud owner of those two! I'm not a fan of spicey scents in the slightest, I love sweet and fruit smells... But I love all of the other scents that were included so she's not getting any of those!

I've been looking for a candy cane scented candle for so long, minty and sweet... mmmm! I couldn't find one on Yankee candle so hallelujah when I found 'Peppermint Kiss' On kringle candle! I got a little bit excited by this, even without ever having smelt the candle I brought it in the breakable wax potpourri as well and I'm so glad I did, it's such a beautiful sweet smell! If you don't like sweet smells then stay away from this, and it's sickly sweet! I also chose 'Freestone peach' which is so lovely I'm thinking of buying it in a large candle and 'Watermelon' which is a clean fruity smell which just reminds me of summer! I've never had a Kringle candle before, only the wax so I'll have to report back on how well it burns but I've heard that they had some relation to Yankee candle before, so I have high hopes for it!

Crystal pillar 2-wick Large candle: £21.99
Breakable wax potpourri: £2.15
15 Hour votives: £2.15

Haul | MAC, Superdrug, Yankee candle and more

This month has been a good shopping month for me, I saved up money from last months wages and I ended up having a lot of extra money this month to treat myself with, I haven't brought everything myself, the Yankee candles were presents from my parents and were at a heavily discounted price!
All of these products weren't purchased at the same time, but over the space of a month.
A bulk of the products are repurchases, as it always seems I ran out of my essentials at the same time... never a good thing.







MAC
208 angled eyebrow brush
Charcoal brown eyeshadow
Pro palette quad
I've been wanting to try out new products for my eyebrows, I love my benefit browzings but I thought having my everyday eyeshadow colours (All that glitters & Satin taupe) and an eyebrow colour in one quad would just make life that little bit easier, and charcoal brown will also be a snazzy crease colour!

NYX
Two soft matte lip creams in Milan and San Paulo
As soon as I saw Kassia from styleofbeautyduo rave on about these products I've wanted them, I'm a matte lip colour kind of girl and I don't like the feeling of heavy gloss on my lips.

BOOTS & SUPERDRUG
Collection cream puff in fairy cake
Maybelline lasting drama gel liner
Rimmel stay matte powder
Collection lasting perfection concealer
Rimmel salon pro nail polish in "Soul session"
Rimmel Wake me up foundation
La roche-posay effaclar mat
Pamlers cocoa butter dark chocolate and peppermint lip butter

CANDLES
Two large Yankee candles in black coconut and summer scoop
Three Kringle candle wax melts in Pancake breakfast, lemon rind and splash

I also brought the cutest pair of tweezers for £1.95 and they're so sharp and great for getting out hairs, with a cath kidston like print on them!

What's your favorite product from this haul?
