Slatkin & Co. Frosted Cranberry Candle Review & Pictures

16 Replies

Slatkin & Co. Frosted Cranberry Candle Review & PicturesI’m not a fan of cranberry in general except when it’s in a tart sauce on top of turkey. So imagine my surprise when I randomly picked up this candle several times in the store and liked how it smelled!

(Yes, I’m that person who walks into Bath & Body Works and literally pops open 15 candles and sniffs the wax.)

Then Bath & Body Works had an online sale, so I felt compelled to finally purchase the Slatkin & Co. Frosted Cranberry Candle!

So what did I think of this winter candle when I burned it? There’s only one way to find out! Continue reading →

Bath & Body Works Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin Fragrance Mist Review & Pictures

Bath & Body Works Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin Fragrance Mist Review & PicturesYou may remember that a while back, I was disappointed in the Bath & Body Works Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin Shower Gel because it was missing the main star – the pumpkin!

Well, at the same time I bought that, I purchased the Bath & Body Works Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin Fragrance Mist.

I probably talk about pumpkin way too much (not just on here), but I really can’t help it. Pumpkins taste so good in pies and smell amazing in spicy scented candles! I’m always hoping to find the next yummy fragrance.

So when something pumpkiny comes out, I feel the strong urge to get it. Sadly, I didn’t fall in lust with this pumpkin body splash. Let me tell you why. Continue reading →

Pier 1 Imports Creamy Caramel Pumpkin Scented Candle Review & PicturesIs the mere mention of pumpkin pie enough to make you salivate? Do you like sweet fragrances like caramel?

If so, you’ll probably like the Pier 1 Imports Creamy Caramel Pumpkin Candle as much as I do!

It’s so delicious-smelling that if you didn’t know it was a candle, you might think something scrumptious was baking in the oven. Seriously! Remind yourself not to eat the wax…

Had it not been for my sweet friend, Carmela, I may have never experienced this yummy fragrance! Big thank you! 🙂 Continue reading →

Slatkin & Co. Hot Buttered Rum Candle Review & PicturesI’m always a sucker for trying out new candles that are based on yummy hot beverages.

The Slatkin & Co. Hot Buttered Rum Candle was a must-try for me, especially since the salesperson at the store kept talking about it. I felt like I was beginning to drool!

Lots of people enjoy hot buttered rum especially during the holiday season, but y’know what? I’ve never had it. But if it tastes as good as this candle smells, wow!

If you’re a fan of sweet and rich-smelling candles, this one really delivers and scents your home beautifully.

35 Replies

Guess what? Evolution of Smooth has come out with something new for winter – the eos Holiday Lip Balm Collection!

eos Holiday Lip Balm Collection Review & Pictures eos Strawberry Sorbet Review, eos Sweet Mint review, eos Passion Fruit review

It includes 3 full-size, organic eos lip balms in the following flavours: Strawberry Sorbet, Sweet Mint, and Passion Fruit.

The purple one (Passion Fruit) is a new and limited-edition flavour.

This is a cute little set that would be perfect for splitting with your friends or for a little stocking stuffer. Yup, Christmas will be here before you know it!

When I see all 3 lip balms neatly lined up in this package, it reminds me of either a set of golf balls or Easter eggs! Either way, it looks simply adorable!

Now, you’ll remember that not long ago, I reviewed the eos Honeysuckle Honeydew Lip Balm on here. I went into great detail about the packaging, the moisturizing effects of the lip balm, etc. Please refer to that if you want an in-depth review about those factors.

In this review, I’m focusing solely on describing the individual flavours since the other elements (i.e. packaging, moisturizing effectiveness) are the same as the Honeysuckle Honeydew one.

Slatkin & Co. Caramel Apple Candle Review & Pictures

Slatkin & Co. Caramel Apple Candle Review & PicturesWhen was the last time you had a caramel apple? For me, it was probably when I was in grade school…grade 3 or 4!

In class, we made caramel apples by melting down the caramel squares and coating the apples. It was really yummy! Not sure why I haven’t made or eaten one since.

I picked up the Slatkin & Co. Caramel Apple Candle for nostalgic reasons.

Sometimes apple scents can be really tart and strong, which unfortunately gives me a major headache. But I thought that the blend of caramel would soften the apple to my liking.

In the container, it smelled soft and delicious. But how did it fare when I burned it? There’s only one way to find out!

eos Honeysuckle Honeydew Lip Balm Review & PicturesI’ve been curious about the eos lip balms (also called Evolution of Smooth lip balms) for a long time because, well, the packaging is such a fun novelty, and they come in lots of different flavours.

It’s also cool how they’re 100% natural and 95% organic. According to the package, they’ve been certified organic by Oregon Tilth.

Other cool things about this egg-shaped Evolution of Smooth lip balm? It’s not tested on animals and it’s gluten-free.

It’s supposed to keep your lips soft, smooth, and moist. Well, I waited to try out this product a few times when my lips felt dry.

Did it pass with flying colours, or did it fail to impress because of performance anxiety? There’s only one way to find out – let’s get cracking!
