Find The Perfect Gift at ProFlowers.com

ProFlowers is best known for delivering the most affordable, highest quality, freshest flowers available. It’s easy to get lost in their breathtaking flower arrangements, but did you know they offer so much more than just beautiful flowers? ProFlowers.com is committed to making every occasion a special occasion with gift baskets containing everything from fresh fruit or chocolate dipped fruit, cheese and wine, and even Mrs. Fields Cookies. Of course, they still have traditional floral bouquets, spa gift baskets, green plants, wild plants, and now they have gift baskets which include fresh flowers along with a gift card to cover dinner! When I say Pro Flowers has it all, I mean they literally have everything to make any occasion a time to remember.

Pro Flowers-Wine-Gift Basket When you have had a long, stressful week at work or a rough time with your toddler who refuses to pass the terrible two stage, what better way to unwind then with a nice glass of wine? ProFlowers has a generous selection of wine gift baskets, many which include cheese, chocolate, or Biscotti. I know there are plenty of occasions when I wish my husband would have sent me their Connoisseur's Quartet Basket. This happens to be one of my favorites because it covers the needs of every man or women by including four bottles of wine, a corkscrew, mixed nuts, cheese straws, Manzanilla olives, caramel popcorn, hot cocoa and so much more. This would make a perfect gift for an employer, relative, and yes- even for yourself or your loved one.

SPA-GETAWAY-BASKET-PRO FLOWERSWhile I wasn’t able to select the wine basket, I added it to my birthday list and began searching for a gift basket that would help me relax. ProFlowers made my decision very easy as they have so many desirable gifts. They have a great selection of spa baskets to provide that special woman in your life with the ultimate at-home spa experience. I did have a hard time deciding on just one, but eventually narrowed my decision down to the Spa Getaway Basket

I chose the Spa Getaway Basket because it combines my two favorite things – tea and bubble bath. Let me just first say as much as I love my son, if he doesn’t get rid of his “terrible two” attitude, one of us is going to pull our hair out. After another long day of being yelled at and struggling to control yet another temper tantrum, nothing could have ended my day better then ProFlowers Spa Getaway Basket.

As I lit all four pillar candles and filled the bathtub with the Green Tea Bubble Bath, I suddenly felt a sense of relief. Ah- finally, peace and quiet. The scent of the Green Tea bubble bath and shower gel was light, refreshing and uplifting, yet soothing and relaxing at the same time. The bubble bath was better than most I’ve tried as it actually filled the bathtub with fragrant bubbles. The shower gel provided a nice, rich lather and left my skin feeling soft with a subtle, sweet fragrance.

ProFlowers-Green Tea- Woven-Spa Basket This amazing spa basket includes a 20 count box of Tazo Assorted Tea Bags. ProFlowers must have known how stressful my week has actually been, because they included four additional tea bags in my set. I chose to unwind with the “Calm” Tazo Tea, which is an herbal infusion of comforting chamomile, rose petals and soothing herbs. This was my first time experiencing Tazo, and it was absolutely delicious. It was definitely the perfect addition to this relaxing basket. The Spa Getaway Basket is the perfect gift to melt away stress and tension. Thank you ProFlowers!

Scandle Candle Review

Scandle - A Body  Candle

Scandle LLC is committed to providing their customers with high-grade, spa quality, skin care products that are made with the industry's most natural ingredients - no petroleum's or mineral oils, 100% Vegan, drug-free, & cruelty-free. Scandle provides luxurious products such as the Skin Renewing Kit, Hand and Feet Treatment Pack, Sea Salt Soak & Scrub and Scandle Candles to provide the ultimate at home spa experience.

There are two things I absolutely cannot live without: beauty/Ceramic Scandle Candle skincare products and candles. With Scandle Candle, you get the best of both! When melted, these heavenly scented candles can be used as massage oils. The travel tins include a silicone band that can be removed after use and used as an eco-wrist band as a reminder to "Reduce. Reuse. Recycle." You can enjoy your candle for 15-30 hours. Scandle Candles are available in ceramic jars and convenient travel tins. With 20 fragrances, you are sure to find the Scandle in you!

I received the Calming Blend Scandle Candle in a 4oz travel tin. I think my travel tin is so cute and I love how compact it is. I have mine sitting on my night stand. There is nothing worse then a bulky candle taking up all of the space. The Scandle travel tin is the perfect size for any room and would be great for traveling.

The Calming Blend is very relaxing. It is made with pure french lavender essential oils although Itravel tin Scandle Candle couldn't detect the lavender fragrance. It has a very calming woodsy scent. My husband noticed the fragrance as soon as I removed the lid and commented on how great our Scandle Candle smelt. I lit my candle and within a few seconds, the wax was ready to be poured.

When poured on the skin, the Scandle Candle leaves a warming sensation. I definitely noticed it was not as hot as traditional candle wax. I was expecting the wax to harden on my skin, but instead it remained as an oil. Hubby loved how easy it was to massage the oil into my skin. I enjoyed how smoothly his hands glided across my back. Our Scandle Candle left my skin feeling so soft and smooth without a greasy feeling that I've experienced with other oils.

In addition to massages, Scandle Candle can be used for ambiance, aromatherapy, and fragrance or you can use the liquid as a body moisturizer, or as a cuticle treatment for manicures and pedicures!

Where To Buy: Shop Scandle Online

Cost: $12.95 - $13.95
