Absolutely Adorable and sure to keep you warm and snugly on those chilly summer nights. Available on their website for £90.00.

 We were so excited when we received Ickle Bockle’s Festival Kit here at The Amazing Blog. It is the perfect travel accessory kit for any festival goer. The Kit is packed full of perfect items: two ickle bockles (travel-sized bottles), one ickle pot, a waterproof poncho, eye mask, ear plugs, toothbrush and toothpaste, compact mirror, tissues, plasters, antibacterial hand sanitiser, and lip balm. Absolutely everything you need in one handy little bag! Can be purchased on the website for £16.95. I know I won’t be heading away without mine!

 FOX-WELLY1

Fox & Pepper’s After Welly Gelly is perfect for those tired festival feet! We all know how your feet can feel after a day of wearing our favourite rubber boots, and this soothing gel takes care of the problem. Best part? It’s Paraben Free, so no nasties there. Available for £7.99 from Made In Heaven.

 Bloom-16 SMALL

Another product we thought was most interesting. Bloom.fm, a downloadable music app has created Bloom Boots, which are Musical Wellington Boots! There is a speaker actually placed into the boot itself, so you can attach your IPod or MP3 and crank up bloom.fm! Unfortunately, there were only 10 pairs created originally, but a thought for next summer! However, you can still tune into Bloom.fm when you download the app! Check out their website for more info.

They taste great, and are 100% Natural and Organic. Perfect for stowing in your rucksack for the trip, you can get the drinks from Ocado starting at £1.29 or on www.amazon.co.uk.

Made in Heaven – The Rover: Aching Bones Muscle Soak

blog 2 So I got back last night from spending the weekend away with my flatmates - we all agreed on going hiking the whole weekend. It was fantastic, and the weather couldn't have been better! Before spending the weekend with my mates, the ever-so caring girls at The Amazing Blog made me carry SPF for the weekend - I'm a pale face, I'm afraid. When I got home, I sat on the sofa for a bit, and when I stood up my legs were killing me. I've never been a super sporty person, but I definitely thought I was in better shape and condition. Luckily enough, the SPF the girls gave me kept my skin safe, and The Rover's Aching Bones Muscle Soak that The Amazing Blog got sent a while ago gave my poor legs a rest.

I once again, decided to follow the girls' advice and give one of those potions that we get sent a try. I left the hot water running and poured a generous amount of The Rover's Aching Bones Muscle Soak into the bath. I got in and stayed in the water for 40 minutes - I was really exhausted. The Muscle Soak foamed very luxuriously and the smell was quite pleasant and clean. The combination of the warm water and the product really relieved my aching legs, leaving them warm and very relaxed. After that I put my pyjamas on, and literally fell fast asleep. Waking up this morning was a bit of a pain (as always), but my legs felt very well indeed.

Overall, The Rover as a brand get a definite thumbs-up from the only guy at The Amazing Blog. The products work and don't smell girly. The Rover Aching Bones Muscle Soak retails at £8.99. You can purchase them from their website.
