The
day my September box arrived really couldn’t have been better timed. I’d had the worst
morning. Every single file I’d picked up that morning had been totally wrong
and needed fixing, then a training session for a new system ran over half an
hour into my lunch break making me extremely hangry. I got stuck in traffic
when I went out for lunch and returned to the office not feeling at all rested
for the afternoon, and in a rather foul mood… until I got to my desk and found
the Magical Moments box sat waiting for me on my desk. After that I was excited to see what goodies were hiding within, and couldn’t wait to get home and see. So with no further delay, let’s see what I got...
Tranquillity
bath salts - Maison Meunier.
Before
I even opened the outer box, I could smell the gorgeous scent of one of the
products emanating from the box. The product in question was a sizable jar of floral
bath salts. A relaxing mix of Lavender, Sweet Orange and Ylang ylang are
blended with a combination of pink Himalayan salts, unrefined organic Epsom salts
and rich Kaolin clay. These are all natural, handmade, vegan and cruelty free.
The
packaging is beautiful too, the reusable clip top jar is stored within unbleached
cotton drawstring, making it presentable as a gift item. Our area has hard
water and we get a fairly strong chemical smell from our bathwater, so I’ve
found a lot of the time that bath products often struggle to overcome the
chlorine smell. That wasn’t the case here at all, and the scents within the
salts are more than potent enough. The one and only draw back with this product is that you need to rinse the bath out afterwards, as I found that bits of lavender has stuck to the side of the tub. Not that it’s a major drawback at all, and is to be expected where a product contains whole flowers.
Magical
Moments notebook - Katie Loxton.
As
quite correctly pointed out by Moi-meme, everyone loves beautiful stationary,
and this stunning notebook is no exception. Its large in size, and the pages
are thick, high quality paper. Protected by a silvery, leather like cover, with
‘Magical Moments’ embossed on the front, the suggestion from Moi-meme was to not
use this like a typical notebook.
We
can all be guilty of buying lovely stationary, but then putting it to use for
things we might not prefer, such as work, or lengthy to do lists. Moi-meme
suggested instead to use the notebook for something that will make you happy, such
as fond memories or quotes. As Mike and I are getting married next year, I’ve decided I’m
going to use mine as a scrapbook, with a couple of wedding photos, and then
various photos throughout our first year of being married. I’d say that’s pretty fitting
to ‘Magical Moments!’.
Love Coco Milk Chocolate.
I
have a confession about this chocolate, and that’s that I ate it all before I
photographed it. I know, I know, I’m a terrible blogger, but I had a massive chocolate
craving and couldn’t help myself. At least I did a reasonable job at sealing
the box back up though! I think that statement alone indicates that I clearly
enjoyed it!
As
I’ve mentioned previously, I love that we get a sweet treat in our monthly
boxes. This time round was a decadent salted caramel, milk chocolate bar from Love Coco. As Moi-meme correctly pointed out, this is not for sharing!!
I’m really pleased with the contents of this months box, and the fact that I’ve got something that I can keep sentimental memories in is a massive plus in my book.
As I’ve come to expect with Moi-meme the products are well thought out and consistent with the chosen theme for the month. Another hit! If you’d like to give the monthly boxes a try for yourself, use code ‘EMSWORLD’ for a discount on your first box.
