Life: A New Range from Space NK

LIFE CANDLES.jpg

I have to preface this post by saying that there are incredible markdowns going on right now on Space NK products. Candles are on sale for less than $10 at their namesake locations, at Bloomingdale’s, and online (they’re not in a special sale section so just got to Space NK-branded product section and browse!). Space NK is discontinuing some items and re-packaging others hence these amazing markdowns (I just picked-up a few more new things at Bloomies — they slashed prices by 75% and then a few days ago took an extra 50% off that price! I got bath soaps for $2, candles for $7.50 and body lotion for $5 — all in original packaging!). Now from the old to the new. Space NK, started by beauty guru Nicky Kinnaird, has just launched a new range of everyday essentials all of which are free of parabens, sodium lauryl sulfate, and silicone. The products come in a range of scents (Tomato Rhubarb, Mandarin Grapefruit, Gingered Woods, Patchouli Suede, Midnight Jasmine), as well as unfragranced ones. Each fragrance is target towards a specific part of the day and the price points are slightly more mild than Space NK-branded items. Note the candles, which are the highlight of the collection, are available at Space NK boutiques now and I’ve also seen them at the Space NK section at Bloomingdale’s (though the official launch isn’t till July 8 which is when they’ll be available online). The rest of the collection is hitting this fall, but I thought I would highlight it now so you can plan your Space NK shopping accordingly — it’s definitely worth leaving some room in your budget for this line!  Learn more after the jump!

Tomato Rhubarb — Candle ($30) and Muscle Relief Bath Soak ($30)
A eucalyptus, rosemary, and juniper infused blend to help ease overly worked muscles. This is recommended for the start of the day.

Mandarin Grapefruit
— Candle ($30), Uplifting Body Lotion ($25), and Jump Start Bath & Shower ($22).
Citrus and mint scent, the body lotion and shower gel are meant to give a burst of energy, while the scented candle is supposed to bring upbeat positivity.

Gingered Woods Candle ($30), Patchouli Suede Candle ($30), Ultimate Unwind Bath & Shower Gel ($22), and Soul Soothing Body Lotion ($25)
These are meant to help reflect on the day gone by then to help us focus on “me time.” Kinnaird suggests burning the Gingered Woods candle to wind down. For a little mystery she recommends the Pachouli Suede blend (my personal fave!), while enjoying a chilled bath.

Midnight Jasmine Candle ($30), Cocooning Body Lotion ($25), Drift Away Bath & Shower Gel ($22), and Midnight Milk Soak ($30)
Meant for spoiling and pampering before bedtime, Kinnaird suggests using the hydrating milk bath and cocooning body lotion, accompanied by the sensual Midnight Jasmine candle before calling it a night.

Japanese Wash Cloth ($30), Balancing Body Lotion ($25), Work it APD ($15), All Round Body Scrub ($30), Picture Perfect Facial Moisturizer ($30), Super Smooth Shave Cream ($20), Everlasting Lip Care ($15), Mighty Mitts Hand Cream ($22), and Party Feet Foot Cream ($25).
Unfragranced everyday essentials that polish, hydrate, nourish, and protect skin.
