Christmas Inspiration... The Irish Fairy Door Company.

With Christmas only 6 weeks away, I thought I'd review something a little different for the holiday season. 



These handcrafted wooden fairy doors from The Irish Fairy Door Company are just brilliant. They would make a great present for any little child and they're something completely different. 

Imagine as a child and having your very own magical Fairy Door. I know I would have loved this when I was growing up. 

These can be used indoors or outdoors. 

My little boy absolutely loves these fairy doors, one of his fairy godmothers bought him one about 6 months ago and he still loves it and plays with it regularly. 

So he thought long and hard where this one should go. So the decision was made to put the fairy door in his bedroom, on the skirting board. So that's where it went. We placed the little set of stepping stones leading to the door and the little bottle with the key inside was placed carefully beside the door, so the fairies would be able to find it and let themselves in. This is all part of the magic of the doors, the fairy takes the key to get in through the door and set up home, and they keep the little key and leave an empty bottle. So you know when your fairy has arrived. 





These doors come in all shapes and colours. There is also a range of accessories to make your fairies home more comfortable. From a little bench and a guitar to a washing line with clothes and many more. The magic goes on and on. 



These are available from their website www.theirishfairydoorcompany.com check them out. 

The doors cost €24.95 which includes delivery and the accessories vary in price. 

These really are so cute and a perfect present for Christmas.

Living Nature. Gentle Make Up Remover..

I love make up removers and this one from Living Nature is really good. It does what it says on the bottle, it's gentle but also cleanses and removes any trace of make up, so your skin is left feeling so clean and soft. It's also brilliant for removing mascara even from semi permanent lashes. 



The best part is, it's a Natural, Gentle Makeup Remover and is fragrance and allergen free, making it suitable for sensitive skin and eyes. 

Its non-drying and skin-calming formula is a soothing combination  of cleansing Kumerahou, hydrating Harakeke Flax Gel and nourishing Active Manuka Honey. 

This costs £18.00 for 100mls. 

Check out the website www.botanicalbrands.com 

They have a fantastic range of natural beauty products.

Home Of Herbs

Discovered this fantastic range of natural handmade face and body creams from Home Of Herbs


These creams are made from all the best natural ingredients, that are so good and nourishing for our face and body. 

I've been using the following for the last few weeks and I'm just in love with this range of creams. 

Rose Face & Body Cream.
This is made from a blend of rosehip and avocado oil, cocoa butter, aloe vera, beeswax, rosewater, lavender & rose essential oils. 

This cream is amazing and really works wonders as a face cream. My face feels so hydrated and moisturised after using this, this would be really great if you suffered from dry skin. You don't need to use huge amounts and its full of natural oils so a little goes along way. This jar would last a really long time. 
This costs €20 for 100g.

Grapefruit Body Butter.
I love this body butter and it smells amazing. It's made from shea butter, coconut oil, avocado oil, grapefruit and mandarin essential oils. This was my favourite as I just love the smell. 
These ingredients are so good for our skin and the fact that we absorb approximately a third of what we put onto our skin, I know when using this body butter, it's all only natural ingredients being absorbed. This is quite a thick body butter so again you don't need to use a lot. 
This costs €16.50 for 100g.

I've also been using the Rose Body Butter and the Cocoa Body Butter. Both are equally beautiful creams and again are full of the finest natural ingredients. 

These Body Butters costs €18 for 100g.



All these products are amazing check out their website www.homeofherbs.ie

Polar White Pro

This Duo pack costs €24.99 and contains 2 teeth whitening pens. Handy for fast teeth whitening on the go. 


This contains natural whitening enhancer, aloe, pomegranate and chamomile that's kind to your teeth and is peroxide free.  

The brush allows you a precise application, leave on for 20 minutes and it's done. It's fast and effective. Recommended use is twice a week to keep a healthy white smile. 

I love these, as they really are mess free, unlike some whitening kits I've used in the past and the gel would shoot out of the applicator and most of it getting wasted as it squirted on the wall. Yes, this happened several times!!! 

You can carry these in your bag as they're effective for removing staining from coffee to red wine when you're out and about. Ensuring you always have pearly whites. 

Try these today, they're so handy.
