6sharesUpon first inspection this looked like a booth that promoted some lovely soy candles, but it was actually more than that. The soy candles, that come in many delicious flavours like oatmeal (that made Keira smell like cookies), cucumber melon, root beer, peaches, tangerine pina colada, and strawberry banana also serve as a skin moisturizer.

I’ll be writing more specific booth/product reviews but for anyone who is planning on attending the event, here is a quick preview with freebies, […]
