Crystalight Candles

I discovered Crystalight Candles last year when our friend, Carol, gifted a beautiful white

candle in the scent “Snow Fairy & Opal Light.” The candle looked so beautiful and it came with Angel wings too. This is by far the most beautiful candle I’ve ever seen. The company is local and the lady who makes them, Emily Simanavicius, uses soy wax rather than Paraffin Wax which is now considered to be toxic. Soy wax burns up to three times longer than paraffin wax. Emily also thought about these products in depth and not only chose the soy wax but all her ingredients are ethically sourced. Nothing has been tested on animals and are paraben free. Emily is also a qualified Make-up artist and Beauty Therapist. Her talents in this field shine through as these candles are so beautiful. Emily has worked with essential oils in her work and has combined them in making these exquisite candles. Julia and I burn candles a lot in our house but we can tell you that Crystalight candles are something very special. They sparkle with the biodegradable glitter, the gem stones illuminate when lit with petals or other natural ingredients. I was overjoyed when I was gifted a second candle from Emily's range called "Inner Goddess." I place these candles next to my bed. The angel wings from the first candle are on my wall, and, when lit, the candle instantly makes me feel relaxed as the natural oils fills the senses and the bedroom. I really enjoy the experience of lighting these candles. It always feels more special than the usual ones I get from the high street or supermarket. Emily also makes soy melts, and even though I haven't had a chance to use them yet I can imagine they are as beautifully scented as the candles.

A Haunting Memoir: Part one

My story starts when I was a young child. I was born in Scotland but moved down to Somerset as a child. I loved it so much. I loved the flowers and the conkers I’d collect on the way to school. I remember all the frogs in my garden and how I'd name them. I moved twice down in England. The houses were always large and I’d get the rooms mixed up, trying to remember where to turn to find my bedroom. I would visit London where my relatives stayed. I loved the vibe of London. One visit to my Nans, we walked down to Church Street market and seeing so many interesting people. The one man with dreadlocks holding a large ghetto blaster on his shoulder playing Bob Marley passed me. I couldn’t get enough of the place. One stall had toys on it. I bought some wooden blocks and a handheld electronic mini piano. They were perfect mementos to remember my visit. When we returned to Scotland I unpacked and placed my electronic piano on my bedside table. It had colours on the notes and London Bridge

L’Oréal Revitalift

L’Oréal are an established company that have delivered quality beauty products for over a century . L’Oréal is a brand I can trust. I worked with L’Oréal by trying the Revitalift range of products over six months. This range offers more than the skincare I was using. I invite you to read more about Revitalift and my journey with this range. ~ Collette. Revitalift is a range of products I had seen advertised and heard amazing feedback from others. I was thrilled when L’Oréal invited me to try these products over the lockdown months. I am in my 40’s and I struggled to find skincare that is effective. Lockdown has taken it’s toll on my skin. I have new wrinkles from tears and frustration like a lot of people. Firstly I tried their Revitalift Laser Renewal moisturiser. This was lovely and light on the skin. This moisturiser is the first moisturiser I used. It has a subtle colour to it that leaves a gorgeous glow on the skin. Revitalift Laser Renew is light on the skin. It gives skin a

Beauty Ties creator: Collette

Hello BeauTies, I have always loved art from an early age. Taking photographs and drawing or painting. I have designed two wedding dresses for friends who got them made up. I've adored beauty products since I had my Victoria Plum nail polish and lip balm from Avon as a child. I love beauty products and how they make me feel. The colours and scents. I get so much joy from trying new products and photographing them. I skipped the afternoon one day at school and ended up in a movie. That was unexpected and it fuelled my passion for creativity and how things are made. It was an experience I will never forget. My name was taken by someone in the crew to go in the credits but when I saw the movie I was not on the credits, sadly. I will never forget the joy I got from being in it. Long days from early mornings and late finishes. The photo from the press shoot hangs in my hallway. Julia urged me to hang it up rather than feel ashamed of it. So it’s hanging up in my home for the first tim
