Kiehl's Recycle & Be Rewarded Program

Image
I recently posted about the Kiehl's Family Rewards loyalty scheme  here .  One of the benefits of joining this loyalty scheme is that they have a recycling scheme which is great on it's own, but what's even better is that you can earn points by recycling if you are a loyalty member.   If you recycle your empties with The Recycle & Be Rewarded program you earn 15 points for each empty product you recycle and it doesn't have to be a Kiehl's branded product. When you have collected 120 points you earn a voucher which if you are in store you can use against a complimentary travel size product worth up to £9.75 or online you can use it on any full size product and get £10 off (min spend of £10) and as you are a member of the loyalty scheme you get free delivery as well. There are certain empties that you can recycle and certain ones you can't.  I've included the list below. Accepted All Kiehl's product packaging All brands of body and skincare plastic pa

Must Have Ideas Product Review - Fur Friend & Data Defender

Image
It wasn't too long ago I was saying that I wasn't buying much at all but recently I seem to be buying loads of stuff. I saw a post on Facebook about the online company  Must Have Ideas and couldn't resist picking up a couple of products. You know those type of products that you don't know you need until you see them and then you can't stop yourself picking them up (I must admit that I had a couple more items in my basket but as I had never heard of the company before buying these items, I was a bit wary about spending too much.  I only bought 2 items this time but I was tempted with a few more which I might go back and purchase at a later date. Fur Friend - Currently on offer for £12.99 with a free travel size version As an owner of 2 cats I have a house that is covered in cat fur.  It is impossible to get rid of and even worse I tend to wear dark clothes so there are always cat hairs stuck on me when I'm out and about.  I love them to death, but honestly th

    *I received this product for free but the opinions are my own. If you are looking for a quirky, fun little gift for a loved one or maybe a gag gift for a friend, then look no further than this cute little Kikkerland Pixel Heart Morph Mug*.  This is a heat changing mug, which starts off as a black heart, but when you pour a hot drink into it, it morphs before your eyes into a red heart. Its cute and functional, so it makes for a great little present. The porcelain mug is 12oz/355ml and measures 3.25 in x 5 in x 3.75 in (8.3cm x 12.7cm x 9.5cm).

*The Hair Boss By Lisa Shepherd - The Detangling Mist Review

Image
*I received this product for free but the opinions are my own. I was kindly sent The Detangling Mist by the Hair Boss* to try out. I have already tried out some of the other products from this brand which I loved and you can read my review here . Targeted to fix frizzy and damaged hair, its designed to strengthen and smooth strands as well as protect your hair by preventing breakages and deterring split ends. You use it on towel dried hair spraying it on the mid lengths and ends and then blow dry or air dry as normal.  It can also be used on dry hair to tame stray hairs.  Its like this product has been designed especially for me as I have dry, frizzy, unmanageable curly hair.  I use this product every morning on damp hair and it detangles my hair so that I can brush it without my brush tangling in any knots.  It really makes such a difference to my morning routine as I'm not struggling to brush out the knots in my hair.  I don't wash my hair every day as it makes it unmanageab

*Christmas is Coming - Gift Ideas - Carnovsky Animals Jigsaw Puzzle

Image
     *I received this product for free but the opinions are my own. I have to admit that I don't generally have the concentration span or the patience to do jigsaw puzzles, but what intrigued me about this Carnovsky Animals Jigsaw Puzzle* was the fact that it has three different images in 1 jigsaw and by using the red, green or blue viewers which are included, you can isolate each layer of the image, which makes for an interesting concept. You can also scan a QR code on the box to use the digital app which allows you to view the three different images through your phone. The puzzle is 50cm x 50cm and contains 500 pieces. It also comes with an artwork print of the puzzle which is a nice touch. Carnovsky are a Milan based art and design duo comprising Francesco Rugi and Silvia Quintanilla. I can definitely think of lots of family and friends who would love a gift like this and its great for both family nights or quiet nights alone as the weather turns colder.  If you want to gift som
