I Wish I Were On An Exotic Island Right Now..

London is London – cold, gloomy and rainy with the odd snowfall. It’s enough to make you miserable. This is the kind of weather that makes me jealous of people that live on exotic islands where soggy socks and frostbite are unheard of. But when the urge to book a flight becomes a bit too frequent I reach for products that’ll transport me to somewhere as further away from London as possible:

Mandara Spa Tropical Blooms Pampering Honey Bath – This bath cream infused with soothing frangipani flower milk, acacia honey and rice milk is the perfect end to a long and stressful day. Just pour a generous amount under running water and then soak in the goodness! The smell of jasmine and ylang ylang if not for a second makes me think I’m in a spa in Thailand, but soon afterwards I’m very much reminded that I’m still in my London bathroom.

Jo Malone Vitamin E Body Treatment Scrub – Slough away dead, flaky skin and say hello to super smooth and moisturised skin with a light honey scent to it. The Vitamin E Body Treatment Scrub is pricey at £70 but is it worth it? Yes!

The Body Shop Polynesia Monoi Body Balm – I actually look forward to using this Monoi Body Balm when I jump out of the bath because it smells incredible. We really need someone to invent a way of getting smell across to others through a computer because I want you all to smell this for yourselves – description alone just will not suffice.
