Did anyone of you grab any Christmas set from Crabtree & Evelyn?

It was so hard trying to control the itchiness to grab more set from C&E. I wouldn’t want to overspend this month AND of course. . .the service from the sales assistant is a total crap. Oh yea. Another bad shopping experience.

As I’m meeting Kate (my ex-CEO from ex-company) on Thursday to discuss on a possible collaboration on a lifestyle magazine, I wanted to gift her with a Christmas present before she flew back to UK for a long Christmas and birthday holiday. I have no idea what to get her. It’s so hard to buy something for someone who have everything! Finally I settle down with Crabtree & Evelyn’s Afternoon Tea set for RM80.

This is what I bought. Although not as much as I want initially as the sales assistant is a turn off to shop more.

Afternoon Tea – RM80, Pomegranate & Citron Gel/Lotion Sampler – RM85

Afternoon Tea set consists of velvety All Butter Almond & Vanilla Biscuits 200g, sweet and satisfying Strawberry Preserve 227g and light blend of Afternoon Tea from Kenya and Sri Lanka 20g.

I also picked up a set of Pomegranate & Citron Gel/Lotion Sampler for RM85.

The sampler set consist of skin-indulgent pairing of zesty Citron, Honey & Coriander and tartly sweet Pomegranate, Argan & Grapeseed bath & shower gel and body lotion. These Bath & Shower Gel gently cleanse and condition, while Body Lotion help to lock moisture into the skin. In this set there’s 4 sampler. Citron Honey & Coriander Bath & Shower Gel 50ml, Citron Honey & Coriander Body Lotion 50ml, Pomegranate, Argan & Grapeseed Bath & Shower Gel 50ml and Pomegranate, Argan & Grapeseed Body Lotion 50ml.

I was given bright red paper bag due to Christmas rather than their usual navy blue paper bag.

I wanted to grab the limited edition Hello Kitty set but I have too many shower gel and body lotion at home so I skipped. Plus I’m not keen with the bag too.
