Setting the Scene 1, 2, 3

Listen up guys. I'm guessing a lot of you will have left your valentines day prep to last minute and are totally stressing out about what you should do this evening. Or maybe you have a special anniversary coming up and you would like to treat your partner? I have devised a setting the scene 1,2,3 plan to get you feeling all loved up this evening. This post features some of my current favourite candles, which one will you pick?

I love bath time and whether you're single or a couple, it's great to dive straight in and have a night of relaxation. Lighting candles can be rather therapeutic and really help you delve off into the dreams in which help you forget about the long stressful day you have just had. Fill the bath with some beautiful rose petals and light one of the Boux Avenue candles. The candles are £12 and burn for a relatively long time. The smell fresh, invigorating and offer a romantic sensation to bath time.

To help you really feel pampered,  you should really have a look at Ancienne Ambiance soaps. You can buy them in a variety of scents from Lavender to Honey and they smell and look fantastic. The scent lingers on your skin for hours and the cube stays perfectly formed whilst you wash. I had a pet hate against soaps that turn into putty after one wash and I guarantee these ones do not.  They are that little bit of luxury you need this valentines day. You can purchase a soap set for £16.

Next to the bedroom and the Marie Reynolds candle will be a well deserved treat. Not only does it smell of roses and seduction, but you can melt the oil and use it massages. This sensual candle ignites all the feelings of seduction and really proves a useful tool. I love the cute little box it arrived in and it's great for a mini present to a loved one. Maybe you should throw in a massage voucher too?

Finally, indulge your sense with this luxury vegan candle by Natural Empathy. I have placed this right in the centre of the table so I can dine by candlelight and enjoy the sweet aromas between courses. The candle is scented with sweet orange, geranium and chamomile and is made with a blend of ecofriendly natural wax suitable for vegetarians and vegans. The candle costs £25, but boasts a 60 hour burn time, meaning you will be able to spend many pleasant evenings accompanied by the glorious shimmer of candlelight.
