Left: Burning desire
Looking for a treat to make your home feel cosy as the nights draw in? Check out the Elizabeth Arden White Tea Candle (£20; 0344 800 8877, ElizabethArden.co.uk), a soy candle that blends a trio of musky notes with heady madras wood, sweet tonka bean, a sea breeze accord and, of course, an extract of the eponymous white tea. It’s cosy and familiar – remember those ads in which women in grey cashmere sip herbal drinks in entirely white rooms. It’s the olfactory version of that.
Right: Help from kelp
If snacks are your downfall and you’re looking to fit into your favourite party dress imminently, Kelp Me (£35 for 30 servings; 07900 662529, kelpme.co.uk) might be the motivator you need. It contains glucomannan, which comes from the konjac plant and is a bulk-forming fibre that absorbs water so it expands after you’ve eaten it to help you feel fuller for longer and regulates your blood sugar levels. It also contains kelp, which is rich in iodine, iron and calcium and antioxidants, as well as gut-boosting probiotics.
Mix it with apple juice (it tastes of cinnamon), or add to yoghurt or porridge to keep you going for longer between meals.
