Aordable bodycare from Heathcote & Ivory

#Gifted
Heathcote & Ivory have just released their charming ‘By The Sea Collection’ –  an array of luxurious vegan-friendly hand creams, washes, soaps and much more. As the name suggests, its products have a real fresh, sea breeze feel to them which helps transport you to the bracing British coastline and beautiful endless Summers. I am lucky enough to live by the sea in Cornwall and this collection captures being by the sea in every way, the scent, packaging and the products help keep your skin feeling soft, nourished and soothed. Ideal after a day of being in the salty air, windswept beaches and sunshine.

Heathcote & Ivory By The Sea

The, By The Sea Collection is classic Heathcote & Ivory, exceptional quality for a great price. From the simple, pretty, spa like packaging which is made from sustainably sourced sugarcane, to the fantastic quality of the products themselves, which are vegan, cruelty free and enriched with a seaweed complex infused with kelp and sea oak. Oh and finally the ‘By The Sea’ scent which captures the essence of the coast, both the calm and relaxing escapism as well as the energy and exhilarating strength of the ocean and coastal landscape. Using citrus and woody notes alongside, fresh violets and soft musk, you’re left feeling revived.

Heathcote Ivory By The Sea Collection

By The Sea Seaweed Complex Hand Cream Trio £16.00

I have been trying out a few products from the collection and the trio of travel sized hand creams have been a godsend, like almost everyone using hand sanitiser a lot means my hands are dry and in dire need of some TLC. So I have popped one tube in my handbag, one in my car and the other is on my desk. So I can apply it when my hands are feeling dry throughout the day. The cream is enriched with vitamin E, aloe, glycerin and a seaweed complex, leaving your hands feeling comfortable (not greasy) and protected. At the heart of this new collection is its scent, and that beautiful, calming yet energising scent lingers on our hands long after you have applied the cream. It is so nice.

By The Sea Body Polish £8.00

This not only has the most fresh, soothing scent, but the walnut shell and sea salt scrub helps smooth and polish your skin. The scrubbies help gently exfoliate away dull, dry skin, leaving your body feeling soft, clean and smooth. Very much needed after a day on the beach, wearing suntan lotion. It is enriched with seaweed extracts, aloe vera and extract of arnica flower. It has a rich, gel like formula has the perfect amount of scrub without being abrasive, think gentle and reviving!

Aordable bodycare from Heathcote & Ivory

By The Sea Body Wash & Body Lotion Duo £23.00

I just love the body duo, the shower gel is the perfect way to refresh your skin after a long day enjoying a coastal walk and the body lotion helps revive and nourish your skin after being out in the elements, as it is enriched with sweet almond oil, moringa oil, cocoa seed butter and a seaweed complex. Infused with the By The Sea fragrance, notes of lemon and bergamot, fresh violets and soft musk, woods, a hint of tobacco and musk. It really does make your bathroom feel like a high-end spa! Such a Summer treat for your skin.

New from Heathcote & Ivory

By The Sea bottles are made from ‘green’ plastic from sustainably sourced sugarcane. They are 100% recyclable. It’s always nice to see brands taking bigger steps to be more green and environmentally friendly.

Pop over to Heathcote & Ivory to browse the By The Sea Collection. Their products make really thoughtful gifts, or treats for yourself too! Let me know what your favourite product is from the range, I love the body duo and the body polish. For me, they are the perfect body care trio for the Summer months.

The Fuzzy Duck Pink Gin Fizz Collection

Baylis Harding Fuzzy Duck Mothers Day Gift Ideas

I have reviewed so many lovely Baylis & Harding products over the years but their most recent collections, Rosé Prosecco Fizz and the new Pink Gin Fizz, look and feel so much more luxurious! I may have to go so far as to say they’ve been my favourite collections to date.

The design is so luxurious looking and the scents are a great mix of feminine, fun and sweet. I also love the sheer range of products and gift sets available in both these latest limited edition collections. They are just my goto brand for affordable beauty gifts. You can get everything from a small token gift to larger more special gift sets. This latest Pink Gin Fizz Collection is just perfect for Mother’s Day, especially if you’re on a budget but still want a gift that looks, smells and feels luxurious, Baylis and Harding really are excellent at affordable luxury.

The Fuzzy Duck Mother's Day Gift Ideas

This Pink Gin Fizz Collection is Limited Edition and is part of The Fuzzy Duck range which has a lovely fresh, sophisticated and slightly sweet, fruity fragrance to evoke memories of Baylis & Harding’s boutique inn (called The Fuzzy Duck) which is nestled in the Cotswolds and is famous for its gin cocktails! (I’d love to go there just for a few cocktails, I love gin!)

This collection has a more modern, spring feel to it & I think this collection is fantastic for modern Mums or Mums that are young at heart. My Mum turns 50 this year & I know she will be thrilled to receive a gift from this range.

Limited Edition Fuzzy Duck Pink Gin Fizz

Fuzzy Duck Pink Gin Fizz Candles

Set of Baylis & Harding The Fuzzy Duck Candles Pink Gin Fizz

These candles have such a Kate Spade feel to them, I love the fresh, modern designs and the colour combinations. I’m so tempted to keep them for myself (my Mum will never know) or I could split up the trio and gift them as individual candles, which would still be a great option.

This set of 3 candles comes in a stunning pink, white and gold gift box, with a fuzzy duck ribbon around the edge, Baylis & Harding have really stepped up their game with the presentation of this collection, I am so impressed. Again the Pink Gin Fizz scent is modern with that mix of sweet and fruity which makes a nice Spring scent.

  • Perfect if you like to change your home fragrance more regularly or use in different rooms around your home
  • Total burn time of each candle is 10 hours
  • Presented in stunning glass jars with coordinating design details
  • Presented in a stylish gift box making it the perfect Mother’s Day gift
  • Fabulous new springtime fragrance 

Candles always make fantastic gifts and this trio are such a nice sweet, fresh scent. I think it will be super popular with most people because it isn’t overpowering or sickly sweet. Oh, & the packaging is adorable too, I am going to keep the jars to store makeup brushes in once the candles have been used, they’re just too pretty to throw away.

Set of Baylis & Harding The Fuzzy Duck Candles Pink Gin Fizz £15 – available from Tesco

The Fuzzy Duck Travel Cup Set

Baylis & Harding Fuzzy Duck Cup and Sock Set £10

This beautifully packaged gift set is one of my favourites. I really like the simple, pretty gold pattern on the travel mug, oh and its pink lid! The cup is very good quality and holds a pretty decent sized cup of tea. That is what I have been putting in mine. It is easy to drink from, drip-free and keeps your cuppa warm whilst you enjoy it on the go. I’ve even had a few people ask where it was from.

Also in the set are the perfect pampering duo – the answer to soft, smooth feet. A 50ml foot balm which smells sweet and fruity and will stop your feet drying out. Also the fluffiest pink socks you will ever feel. Very cosy and soft, ideal for the freezing weather we’ve been having in the UK. The socks are great to put on after you’ve applied the foot balm. Say hello to soft pampered feet!

  • Set contains 50ml foot balm & pink super soft socks
  • A fabulously co-ordinating travel cup
  • A stunning fragrance that will leave the skin delicately scented
  • Stylish pink & white striped design accented with gold spots
  • Beautifully presented which makes it the perfect Mother’s Day Gift

This is a limited edition handwash in Prosecco Fizz. What could be more fitting for Christmas than a product that is prosecco scented? It is a huge 500ml bottle and the packaging looks very luxurious and expensive but the beauty of all Baylis & Harding products is that they’re all so purse friendly. This has gone straight into my bathroom for our house guests to enjoy over Christmas, although this huge bottle will last well into the New Year.

This has to be my favourite gift option. Everything is so festive from the incredible packaging right to the Winter Spruce scent. This candle screams Christmas. I adore the Gold Christmas Tree detail on the lid it really makes this candle look so luxurious and very festive. The scent is light enough so you can have this candle lit in any room in your house and the scent lightly fills the room without being too overpowering.
