Three For Halloween

Posted on by

With Halloween just around the corner we thought we would share our three top picks.

Hawkin.com have these TY Halloween Beanies. We love the ghost and the spider. These are so adorable and cute. Almost too cute to be scary. They are also soft.  £5 for beanie boos and £3 for clips.

The perfect sweets for kids that come to your door are these bean boozled jelly beans. You have to pick wisely as, along with the normal flavours, there are some truly awful ones; rotten egg, stinky socks and lawn clippings all factor. Available from Hawkin.com

Lastly, how about Halloween doing karaoke? That really is a nightmare for some.

 

Halloween Cometh 

Time to Sing as Though your Life Depends on It (perhaps it will….) 

Book your Karaoke Booth at Lucky Voice…if you dare

 

Lucky Voice will be daring you to pay them a visit this Halloween, as they cast aside the sequins and silliness and embrace the dark side for Halloween.

  • The Lucky Voice bars will be transformed from karaoke havens to chilling dungeons containing your deepest fear
  • If you’re haunting the streets of London, make sure you check yourselves in to the Soho or Islington bars. If it’s Brighton you’re roaming, line up for a spine-tingling time at our dark circus show where our ringleader will welcome you with open arms.
  • The usual props of brightly coloured wigs and fun specs will be taking a more sinister turn – think limbs, fake blood, gore and more (after all, every good singing star needs their alter-ego, right?)
  • Halloween Playlist songs: karaoke up a Halloween storm with songs from Thriller, Ghost busters, Phantom of the Opera, Monster Mash, Ghost Town, Bat Out of Hell, Highway to Hell, Creep, I Put a Spell on You, Rocky Horror Picture show songs – the list goes on!
  • Toxic Cocktails – if ever there’s a time to indulge in cocktails with names like Gaga Bloody Mary, it’s now:
  • Dark & Stormy (mystic blend of rum, with fresh limes and sugar syrup topped with crisp and spicy ginger beer)
  • Gaga Bloody Mary (chilled mix of vodka, crushed back pepper, fresh chilli, tomato juice and Worcestershire sauce)
  • Zombie: (Spooky potion of white and dark rum shaken with grand marnier, fresh orange juice, pineapple, a zingy splash of lemon and lime juice then topped with a blood gurgling pomegranate syrup)
  • Trick or Treat (4 shots, 4 choices, 2 tricks and 2 treats, the choice is yours!)

Spotlight On Escada | Fashion

Posted on by

Escada has come a long way since being founded in 1978 by Margaretha and Wolfgang Ley. The luxury international fashion group is now in over 60 countries and their clothes, accessories and fragrance are as beautiful and high-end as ever. Escada is a Frost favourite.

From beautiful clothes, to stunning shoes and bags, we have a little obsession with this brand. We love their use of unusual, bold colour combinations, patterns and embroidery. Not to mention the great fragrances it has launched. We had fun browsing the Escada lookbook and picking some of our favourite outfits. Sigh, we want it all.

Be brave and go for bold patterns. Add stunning red accessories for a statement look.

BackBliss Lotion & Cream Applicator Review | Summer Picks

Posted on by

I am double-jointed and can reach every part of my back. This is a rare skill however and my doctor does tell me off for ‘overstretching’. So to stop annoying him, and for those without freakish joints, we thought we would review the Backbliss Lotion & Cream Applicator. A great beauty pick for summer.

backbliss

The BackBliss Lotion Applicator is a device to help you apply sun lotion, cream or after sun to that awkward middle part your back to keep your back protected in and out of the sun. When Caroline Wagstaff, 55 the product’s inventor from Windsor, Berkshire, appeared on the BBC2 show Dragons’ Den the Dragons thought BackBliss was ingenious!

‘Sun care has improved enormously over the years but it is still difficult to get all this good stuff in the right places’ says Caroline.

Now anyone planning to enjoy the sun here in the UK or abroad can easily and regularly apply SPF to their backs to protect themselves from the suns harmful UV rays and get a safe and healthy suntan.

Applying stuff to your back is difficult even if you are on holiday with someone else. Your partner, friend or colleague is not always willing to cream your back, they are not always by your side, they often do it begrudgingly or simply not very well. Sometimes you just don’t want to ask them again!

Why BackBliss?

Compact and lightweight, easy to use – take it to the beach, salon, pool or gym

Fun, funky and functional! – Available in blue or charcoal (and pink, purple and clear!)

Hundreds of uses – self tan, sun and after sun creams, body lotions and butters, moisturising cream, medical treatments and ointments.

No wastage! Patented pad material doesn’t absorb lots of lotion – only use the amount you need.

Hygienic Replacement Pads – are washable and long lasting.

Ergonomically tested – BackBliss’s patented design perfectly moulds the contours of your back

RRP Single Pack £11.99, Double pack £19.99.

Some genuine customer reviews

Just what I needed for my holiday. I cannot believe I hadn’t thought to search for this product before. I was able to apply my sun tan lotion (and after sun) easily all holiday.

Gemma Cairns

I wish I had discovered BackBliss ages ago. I’ve had difficulty for a few years due to a stiff shoulder and I hated asking my grumpy husband to rub moisturiser on my back.

This device is a fantastic solution if, like me, you need to regularly apply prescription creams to your back. I shall also use it for sun lotion.

So what did we think?

It really works. It stops you straining or hurting a muscle or having someone you don’t like rub cream into your back. It is also good if you have an itch. It comes with a suction hook which you can attach to the shower and the packaging is handy for traveling. It also comes with a spare pad. This is a very good invention and ideal for people with bad backs too. A highly recommended summer pick. Good stuff.
