Designed by Play Monster UK Ltd, previously known as Interplay UK (see here for further information on Play Monster UK Ltd) https://playmonster.co.uk/pages/about-us; these little kits make great gifts and give lots of fun; and with an array of scented fruits, they just add a really amazing scent of fun and magic to dressing up.

The kits come in a purse shaped box with a carry handle that doubles up as a bracelet, making them easy to carry around when not in use. They make perfect travel items for when out and about, visiting friends and family or even to take away on holiday.

I have an 11 year old granddaughter and was the perfect little one to try these out with and she was not disappointed.

MELON MANIA SCENTED NAIL ART
WOWZER! This really does smell like melon and went down an absolute treat with my 11 year old granddaughter. There are 2 different colours but so many ways to pain your nails with them making it so much fun when it comes to decorating your tiny one’s little nails. Who would have thought you could get scented nail varnish as well as nail stickers. Inside the box, are the contents neatly presented in an open presentation box, on the back of it are the instructions on how to use the contents. Just 4 simple and easy to follow step that help you to prep, choose and apply the polishes and nail stickers. As advised, you may want to use tweezers when using and playing the stickers, we did and made it so easy to use and apply as the stickers are very tiny.

The carry handle on the packet doubles up as a bracelet, which needs to be wrapped around the wrist twice as it is quite big. It is a lovely shade of watermelon/pink with a beautiful heart shape and has the logo FabLab on it. This really is great fun.

WORTH NOTING: I played on the side of caution and applied a base coat first before applying the polishes as they are very bright in colour and did not know if they would stain the nails. I then sealed in the colours by applying a top coat. Both the base and top coat are not included in the package.

CONTENTS
2 x watermelon-scented nail polishes – Pink & Green 7ml each
46 x scented ail stickers – Melon, pips and faces
1 watermelon emery board
1 x bracelet

TROPICAL PUNCH SCENTED HAIRLIGHTS
WOW, just WOW! Upon opening the packaging, you are greeted with the intensity of the clean fresh aroma of pineapple. Felt like I was on a tropical island. Now this was my granddaughter’s favourite and of course it was temporary colour to her hair for a little 11 year, of course she got giddy and she loved it. I still cannot get over the scented nail polish and stickers and now scented hair colours. Who would have thought it.

Inside the box, are the contents neatly presented in an open presentation box, on the back of it are the instructions on how to use the contents. Just 2 simple and easy to follow step that help you to select a small section of hair and separate it out to opening the hair light and gently rubbing it down the length of hair you wish to colour. You can repeat this step as many times as you wish.

When it was time to wash my granddaughter’s hair, as advised on the packaging, we just washed her hair as normal with shampoo and warm water and it washed out like there was never any colour in it. I did make sure like always to condition her hair afterwards.

The carry handle on the packet doubles up as a bracelet, which needs to be wrapped around the wrist twice as it is quite big. It is a lovely shade of orange with a beautiful heart shape and has the logo FabLab on it. This really is great fun.

CONTENTS
2 x 3.5g pineapple scented hair chalks – pink and yellow
1 x pair of laboratory gloves
2 x hair bobbles
1 x bracelet

BERRY BURST SCENTED GLITTER TATTOOS
Who would have thought it, berry scented glue. This was the only item in the packaging that was scented. There was no scent to the glitters or tattoos, not sure if there is supposed to be and if so, there is no scent at all. Once the glue dries, you can still smell the scent of the berries which is an uplifting and refreshing scent.

Inside the box, are the contents neatly presented in an open presentation box, on the back of it are the instructions on how to use the contents. Just 6 simple and easy to follow step that help you with peeling the stencil off the sheet (definitely use tweezers to do this). It then guides you with peeling a smiley face off to applying the scent glue onto the skin and then using the brush to pick up the glitter and dab onto the glue. You then have guidance on how to peel off the stencil before the glue fully dries to peeling off the green stalk and positioning on to your glittery fruit.

My granddaughter loved these as they were really cute and adorable and kept her busy for ages. What with her nails and hair, this pack was a great addition to her getting dressed up for a party she was going to. All the other children loved it and asked where she got them from. Just goes to show, put a scent on something and it gets all the little ones giddy. LOL.

The carry handle on the packet doubles up as a bracelet, which needs to be wrapped around the wrist twice as it is quite big. It is a lovely shade of blue with a beautiful heart shape and has the logo FabLab on it. This really is great fun.

CONTENTS
12 x fruit stencils with faces and stalks
1 x pink biodegradable glitter 1.2g
1 x purple biodegradable glitter 1.2g
1 x berry scented cosmetic glue 7ml
1 x soft brush
1 x bracelet

There was nothing on the packaging to say anything about the recycling of the products which was disappointing. As I am not sure about it, I will make sure I do not put any of the items in the recycle bin just to be on the safe side.

Great fun for any little one that loves to dress up. These make great gifts whether it is for a birthday or, dare I say it, start shopping early for those Christmas stocking fillers.
