Give your dad the gift of L'occitane this fathers day

Give your dad the gift of L'OCCITANE this fathers day 

Are you stuck for ideas on what to get your dad for a gift this fathers day, If so I have the answer. The beautiful french company that is L'occitane is releasing a brand new mens range in stores from 4th June. The new range has everything from fragrance to skin care, Prices that range anywhere between £4.50 to £42.00. So perfect for anyones budget.

Let me tell you more

Firstly they only use organic Cedrat from Corsica, It is a citrusy scent with woody undertones therefore making it very masculine, Kinda looks like a huge lemon. Orginally from Asia this is a big bold fruit. 

MENS eau de toilette 

£42.00

So there is a fragrance for that lovely man in your life, A little similar to the now discontinued Verdon range from L'Occitane with its fresh notes and uplifting scent. This special fragrance contains bergamot (my fav)cedar, cashmere wood, blue ginger and nutmeg. 

Cedrat After Shave Balm 

£22.00

This balm does two things, It hydrates and nourishes perfect for the man in your love that suffers from irritation and tightness after shaving a perfect gift!

Cedrat Face Cleanser

£16.00

This is my favourite product out of the range mainly because us girls can use it too, I admit not as often as men but they can exfoliate every day however us girls had delicate skin therefore we cant. 

It is a lovely clear gel texture with little beads, So great for men who need that extra TLC in the morning. Perfect to get this into a routine to then apply a moisturiser. 

Global Face Gel £28

This is a little gem of a product, mainly because it reminds me of a primer that matts the skin. So this does three main things. This is a hydrating gel which contains a glycerin based sugar that just locks the moisture in. 

It stops your skin from producing excess sebum, which is great if you suffer from greasy skin I would highly recommend this. Thirdly, It energises the skin great for fatigue. 

Shower gel £14.00

Alcohol free deodorant £14.00

Shaving gel £16.00

soap £4.50 After shave cream £9.00


You seriously have to go into your local store and check al this out win it ones in! Now you all have ideas for fathers day I look forward to seeing your posts on gifts. 

Late posts - Birthday JUNE 2014

I know I have been M.I.A lately just so much has happened. After I moved back in with mum she has now sold the house and we are moving. Which means I cant keep the job due to the travel time and silly hours that they give me. So I am sure a lot of things will be changing in the next few months. 

Anyway this is a happy post about my birthday!

Happy 22nd Birthday to me!

Some beautiful flowers I have received. 

So the day started of as normal, Mia beckoning me to go town with her early as possible as she needed to grab a few things from the art shops. So being the good twin I came into town with her, She did however buy me a fantastic breakfast at our favourite Italian restaurant in cheltenham. The one just off the high street, on Winchombe street. It s small family owned restaurant called Dolce and Salato. 

I have written a post before about this little restaurant, Never before Have I met such friendly people and people who like kids and welcome them into their restaurant . The food was great as always I opted for scrambled egg and salmon ( weight watchers you will thank me later ) and Mia opted for the full work which for 6.95 including a pot of tea orange juice too! great prices! We did take the little ones into town which giving them a croissant they where really well behaved. On the trip out of the shop Mia decided to get a few treats for herself. Lucky me only had a nibble of one.

Mias large arrangements of nibbles.

So back home it was to pick up her oldest Dylan who's 4 from nursery, We watched a few movies and of course it was time for lunch. I have never actually spent the day with my sister on our birthday, I am usually with the other half at the time. However with john living so far away that was near enough impossible. 

Now sushi is one of my favourite foods, so with it being impossible to go to dinner we choose a nice lunch out instead just taking dylan and Harper and leaving Rueben with grandma for a couple hours. 

Beautiful little Harper

The most amazing cheesecake balls

M&S you work wonders!

And on my new plates I got from the vintage fair in gloucester

What I got.

One of my main presents from John and Mother was the new tattoo I had which I love, something to remind me of my man!

I also got a few little bits from my sister and my dad, too many photos to post so here are some random ones!

I would of much rather stayed 21, but we cant all be young forever :(
