Hello Lovelies, 

I know I have been banging on about my bloomin’ holiday for what seems like an eternity but it is now less than a month away and me being me, I have made a shopping list for airport fun times.

With a lot of brands creating special editions and value packs design specially for travellers, it would be rude not to jump on the bandwagon. The savings are sometimes huge so it is always worth planning ahead and doing your homework.

Here is a few gems that have really been grabbing my attention and what is even better, I get to shop duty free at both Newcastle AND Heathrow! woo!

And as if these little treats aren’t enough, there is a whole heap of free beauty services I can indulge in while waiting to jet off. I leave Mr Tramp in the World of Whiskies and he never notices that I have wandered off for 45 minutes!

 

Hello Lovelies,

With the summer holiday season firmly over and Christmas rapidly approaching, have you ever wanted to find a gift for someone that loves to travel but don’t know what to get? These 2 cute gift sets from Burts Bees tick all the right boxes.

Whether you are buying it for yourself to replenish your wash bag or as a gift, all bases are covered.

The Daily Indulgence Kit (£16.99) contains just about everything you could need to treat yourself. Not only that but it comes in a super cute little zipper pouch

Beeswax Lip Balm Tube 
Tinted Lip Balm Hibiscus ( I reviewed this in 2011 HERE)
Shea Butter Hand Repair Cream 
Purse Size Naturally Nourishing Milk & Honey Body Lotion 
Fabulously Fresh Rosemary and Peppermint Body Wash 

The Essentials Kit (£12.99) represents a great selection of Burts Bees products for a first time user or topping your toiletries bag.

Beeswax Lip Balm tube 
Mini Coconut Foot Cream
Mini Milk & Honey body lotion
Mini Hand Salve 
Mini Soap Bark & Chamomile Cleansing Cream

The small sizes are perfect for air travel as you can pop everything in to your clear bag and use the zip bag for other non liquid essentials. When I opened the Indulgence Kit, Mr Tramp was very quick to point out that it contained my favourite lip balm and also his favourite lip balm so it was perfect for our next trip! The plain lip balm has however magically vanished from the pouch. Funny that!

The Essentials will be perfect for our winter trip to New York. All that walking will call for some serious foot TLC and the hand salve will sooth wind chapped hands!
