Lush Christmas Haul

Hiya Guys!

I am finally posting my Lush Christmas Haul and I am extremely excited about it, if there are two things I love the most it's Lush and Christmas so when Lush release their Christmas products I get so giddy. If you follow me on Twitter you will have seen that a few weeks ago I tweeted about going a little over the top in the Manchester store, I think I picked up every Christmas bath product that they had in store without hesitation.

So without anymore blabbering on here goes...

Sparkly Pumpkin - Bubble Bar



Before I get started with all the Christmas products I just thought I would share the one Halloween product I bought. I know it's no longer available to buy online but I just wanted to share it because it's extra cute. If you pop into your local store they may still have a few of these left and if so I would say to pick one up.

I am so glad that it doesn't actually smell like pumpkin because personally I can't stand the smell but it's more of a fruity scent, if Autumn had a scent I would say this is it! Some of the main ingredients in this Bubble Bar are Juniperberry, Grapefruit and Lime oils, just crumble a piece under running water and your bath will be filled with lovely bubbles and your water will be a gorgeous sparkly deep orange.

Luxury Lush Pud - Bath Bomb


You can already tell just by the picture how amazing this bath bomb is going to be. Look at the colours! I think this one especially would be lovely for children as all the colours burst in the water and create a rainbow in the bath.

It has a very relaxing scent to it in a way that's not too in your face such as something like the Snow Fairy sweet candy scent. It's perfect for if you need to unwind with the Lush website stating that it's main ingredients are 'Lavender Oil' which is 'Balancing and Calming', 'Benzoin Resinoid' which is 'Warming and Sweetly Perfumed' and 'Ylang Ylang Oil' which is 'Sweet, Heady and Floral'.


Star Dust - Bath Bomb


I love this bath bomb, I know I'm going to probably say that for all them but this one is just so aesthetically pleasing. I just love how simple it looks whilst having a little surprise inside.

When you pop this in the bath it has a lovely fresh scent to it which isn't overpowering at all. Although it looks like a regular plain bath bomb after a couple of minutes of being in the water you will see little colourful star confetti start to appear. It would be so magical for children as well as any adult I would say, I aren't going to lie I was excited when I saw them. The Lush site advises that the main ingredients are 'Rosewood Oil' which is 'Antiseptic and Uplifting', 'Fair Trade Vanilla Absolute' which has a 'Sweet and Comforting Scent', and 'Bergamont Oil' which is 'Uplifting and Cleansing'.


Snow Fairy - Shower Gel


This is hands down 100000% my favourite Lush product EVER, I just wish they would sell it all year round. So when it comes to Christmas time I always stock up and have done for so many years now.

If I could recommend only one product from the Lush Christmas range it would be Snow Fairy. It has the most amazing candyfloss and sweet scent ever and is also glittery - what more could anybody want? Also once you've come out of the bath or shower after using this product the scent remains on your skin leaving you smelling incredible. I honestly cannot say enough about this product and would highly highly HIGHLY recommend everyone to try this product out.


The Magic of Christmas - Reusable Bubble Bar


The name of this product is such a perfect description, it looks so magical and literally looks like Christmas on a stick. And not just any stick, this Bubble Bar is on an actual cinnamon stick! What else says Christmas than gold glitter, cinnamon and red ribbon?

This is a reusable Bubble Bar which means all you need to do is either hold it under the running tap or swish it about in your bath tub and the bubbles will create themselves and as the name says this can last up until about 5-10 baths I would say depending on how much you use each time. It smells like the typical spiced Christmas scent which I love and just makes you want to cosy up in bed afterwards with a hot chocolate and watch Elf. The main ingredients in this product are 'Almond Essential Oil' which is 'Sweet Smelling', 'Cinnamon Leaf Oil' which is 'Warming, Spicy and Stimulating' and 'Sweet Orange Oil' which is 'Refreshing and Uplifting'.


Dashing Santa - Bath Bomb


This is one of the more fun bath bombs from the Christmas selection with how he looks but still smells incredible and creates a gorgeous gold and red bath.

When you pop this guy in your bath you instantly see the gold sparkle coming from his boots and presents which goes so nice with the red colour. I will be saving mine for when we are really close to Christmas to get me in the Christmassy mood (although I'm already in it slightly). Not only do the amazing colours uplift your spirits but so does the fruity scent - this is from the two main ingredients 'Mandarin Oil' and 'Bergamont Oil'.


Cinders - Bath Bomb


Cinders is another one of my Christmas favourites, although Snow Fairy is my favourite scent I love spicy scents around the winter months.

This is basically a cinnamon bath bomb and smells like Christmas to me. I love the whole spiced apple and cinnamon scent whether it's in air fresheners or candles and I will buy anything with that scent when it comes to the winter months. Oh and just to make this a whole load better it has popping frikking candy in it!! Yes the 12 year old in me gets very excited by things like this but I just how it makes the water fizz. Lush have stated that the main ingredients in Cinders are 'Almond Essential Oil' which is 'Sweet Smelling', 'Cinnamon Leaf Oil' which is 'Warming, Spicy and Stimulating' and 'Sweet Orange Oil' which is 'Refreshing and Uplifting'. These are the same as The Magic of Christmas Bubble Bar.


Bar Humbug - Bubble Bar


Bar Humbug looks like a tiny, glittery and purple version of The Comforter but it does not smell anything like it. If I'm honest I'm not a huge fan of the scent, it smells of liquorice and if you're a liquorice lover this would be perfect for you but I'm not that keen.

Although it does create a gorgeous colour bath and the name is just amazing ha! The main ingredients which are stated on the Lush website are 'Fennel Oil' which is 'Cleansing and Brightening', 'Bergamont Oil' which is 'Uplifting and Cleansing' and 'Tarragon Oil' which is 'Balancing and Relaxing'.


Snow Angel - Bath Melt


I can't actually say that I have tried a bath melt before so I'm very excited to try this one out. I've done a bit of research and all you do is pop the whole thing in the bath and just leave it to dissolve into the water and it will leave you feeling super soft and moisturised!

It has a really soft sweet scent to it which smells very calming, alongside the fact that it's a bath melt I would probably suggest this is product for when you want to unwind. One of the main ingredients in this product is 'Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter' and that is one of my favourite ingredients within a product, there is nothing better than coming out of a bath or shower and feeling really soft and moisturised.  


Father Christmas - Bath Bomb


This is basically Snow Fairy in a bath bomb, I don't think I need to say anything else following my little rant about Snow Fairy up there ^

Although what I will mention is although it's a pinky colour it turns your bath an amazing vibrant green colour and look how cute it is? I would definitely recommend this bath bomb just because I'm obsessed with the Snow Fairy scent.


Holly Golighty - Bubble Bar


I lost a berry :(

But other than that this is very pretty Bubble Bar, it would make a lovely present. But let me tell you now you will get glitter EVERYWHERE when you touch this - it's a nightmare! Apart from that when you crumble this into your bath not only does it create amazing bubbles but it leaves your water smelling like Christmas spices and a gorgeous green glittery colour. The main ingredients as stated on the Lush website are 'Clove Leaf Oil' which is 'Warming and Stimulating', 'Patchouli Oil' which has an 'Exotic and Earthy Aroma' and 'Persian Lime Oil' which is 'Uplifting, Protecting and Refreshing'.


Yog Nog - Bath Bomb


Now even though Yog Nog is from the Christmas range it really reminds me of Bonfire Night, it just has a scent of toffee and not in an awful sickly way either. In a 'Ooo this Bath Bomb smells like Autumn' way.

It's extremely creamy and frothy when you drop it in the bath and leaves your skin feeling amazing. Two of the main ingredients are 'Organic Shea Butter' and 'Soya Milk Powder' which both moisturise and soften your skin in the bath.


Peeping Santa - Bubble Bar


I think everyone can agree that this is 100% one of the cutest products from the Christmas range, just look how cute this little Santa is!

This Bubble Bar is one for those who are fans of fruity/sweet scents, how I would describe it would be the 'typical Lush scent' and if you're new to Lush I know that doesn't help but I feel that this has a very familiar scent to other products I've bought from Lush previously. What I especially love about this product is that the middle cream section is Cocoa Butter so mixed in with the bubbles would be amazing. It also makes your bath bright red and it looks so fun!


So White - Bath Bomb


This looks like any old bath bomb but it's far from it. When you pop this into your bath it fizzes away and leaves your water a beautiful pastel pink colour.

The scent of this bath bomb is very floral, quite like roses and to be honest I'm not the biggest fan of floral scents but this isn't too overpowering - it's just a nice fresh scent. Some of the main ingredients include 'Rose Absolute' which is 'Balancing and Restorative', 'Neroli Oil' which is 'Uplifting and Toning' and 'Orange Flower Absolute' which is 'Intensely Floral and Uplifting'.


Magic Wand - Reusable Bubble Bar


And the final product I bought is another one of the Reusable Bubble Bars so like The Magic Of Christmas this is one which you just swirl around in the bath or pop under the running tap and it creates lots of bubbles.

Now if you're a fan of Snow Fairy you will love this, as it has the extremely sweet candyfloss scent to it which personally (I'm sure you can tell by now) I LOVE! Imagine having a bath with this, the Father Christmas Bath Bomb and Snow Fairy Shower Gel - holy crap that would be the bath of all baths. I just think not only are these lovely products to have in your collection but they make gorgeous presents as well.


Well that's it for my Christmas Lush Haul and if you've got this far I congratulate you because I know I can witter on a bit but I just love Lush and could talk about it for days.

As always I hope you enjoyed the read and please let me know what you think.

ELF Cosmetics Haul

Hiya Guys!

Recently ELF (Eyes Lips Face) Cosmetics have re-launched their website and I placed a little order. I only ordered a few things as it seems I placed my order before the official re-launch so there wasn't as many products available, but I thought I would still share my purchases with you guys.
For those who haven't heard of ELF before it's on online cosmetics store. I personally think it is VERY affordable - although the prices have gone up with the new re-launch it is still very affordable. But with slightly higher price come better quality products.

Studio Contouring Brush


I absolutely love contouring and for so long I wanted the NARS Contour Brush which is around £40.00 and when I saw this I added it to my bag SO quickly. It works great with either cream or powder and gives such a perfect contour.

I use this alongside my Benefit Hoola Bronzer and I am obsessed. It is such a high quality brush, I haven't had any shedding when using it and it washes really well. Also I just love how it looks with it's matte handle and just looking simplistic. It is definitely worth buying and for such a good price you can't complain.


Clear Brow and Lash Mascara


This is my life. If you know me well you will know I have used this brow gel for about 2-3 years now, it is INCREDIBLE.

After you've applied your brow products whether it's wax, pencil or powder just brush this through and it will set your brows and keep them in place all day. You have one side for eyebrows and one for eyelashes, I just use both for brows but it's up to you. For the price you really cannot go wrong at all - I always bulk buy these because they are literally my number 1 brow product. Highly recommend.


Crease Brush


I have recently started getting into eyeshadow, I used to just be a winged liner girl but I've started experimenting more with colours so thought I would get this brush to add to my collection.

This is such a good brush for defining the crease and is the perfect size to make sure the colour is precise and doesn't end up all over your eye! It is also fluffy enough to blend your eyeshadow out and does a really good job of it too. Like the contour brush it doesn't shed and washes really well. If you are new to make up and are looking to try out different products and do some experimenting I would recommend the ELF brushes as they are such a affordable price.


Lip Lock Pencil



This is basically a primer for the lips and it actually works. I'm always a bit iffy when buying lip primers because all the ones I have used before have never actually worked, they were more like lip balms.

What I do is apply this product to my lips and leave it sink in for about a minute or so and then apply my lip liner and lipstick. This product keeps your lipstick in place and prevents it from feathering, even with the darkest lipsticks. I am glad I bought this and will definitely re-purchase when I run out.


Ultimate Blending Brush


This is the last product that I bought from ELF and is the 'Ultimate Blending Brush'. I use this for my liquid foundation and I love the finish it gives.

When I first got into make up properly a few years ago I used to use the 'Powder Brush' for my foundation and I would swear by it - that was until I found Real Techniques! This is like a better version of that brush. If you are looking for a lighter coverage of foundation you can use this brush to buff the product into your skin. Or if you like a more heavier coverage like I do I tend to push the product into my skin and then buff it in.


That's it for my ELF Haul, if you see something you like and buy it let me know what you think of it, hope it gives you some ideas. I've got a HUGE Lush Christmas Haul coming soon which I am very excited about, so keep your eyes open for that. As always I hope you enjoyed the read and please let me know what you think.

NEW Zoella Beauty Haul and Review

Hiya Guys!

As I'm sure most of you know Zoella has brought out a new range of beauty products in her 'Zoella Beauty' line. So of course when I popped into Superdrug I had to pick a few up.
I bought 5 products from the range which some are from the exclusive Christmas Range and others are just new products that she has released. I thought I would do my Haul and Review so that if you want to pick them up as gifts for Christmas or just as a treat for yourself you can do with enough time to spare!

Soap Pop


HOW CUTE?? I'm sorry but how could anybody not buy this? It is the prettiest soap I have ever seen in my entire 20 years of living. This is described as a 'Fragranced soap on a stick' and I must say I kinda don't want to use it as the packaging is so gorgeous.

I think anyone would be happy receiving this as a gift for Christmas, it would be a lovely little stocking filler. Especially for fans of Zoella I'd say it's a must have. The actual soap itself if a lovely marbled pink colour with Zoella engraved in it and it was mentioned in one of her recent videos that once you've finished the soap on the stick it tells you a little fact about her, which again I think is a great thing for the fans.


Blissful Mistful Solid Fragrance


This is a product I was really excited about when I saw that it was released as I am such a big fan of the original Blissful Mistful.

Again I have to say the packaging is beautiful, I think a lot of thought has gone into the packaging with the range along with all her other products. It's so lovely. The solid perfume is in a tin which I prefer so much more than plastic packaging and the scent is literally the original Blissful Mistful. The scent is one of my favourite summer scents and yes I know it's nearly winter but there is nothing wrong with smelling sweet! I definitely feel that the scent lasts longer than the spritz if you pop some of your neck, wrists and behind your ears as this time it's more of a perfume rather than just a body mist.

I'm just going to say this now rather than repeat it about every product I honestly think anyone who is into their beauty or is a fan of Zoella would be chuffed with these products and I would definitely recommend them to anyone either as gifts for family and friends or a little treat for themselves.


Wonder Hand


Wonder hand is a 'Moisturising Hand Cream' and comes in a BEAUTIFUL rose gold package. One of the first things that comes into my head when I think about Zoella is rose gold and she has definitely reflected this in her products.

It smells like the original Creamy Madly Dreamy Body Lotion which I personally love and just like Blissful Mistful has a very light, sweet scent to it. The hand cream is very light and sinks straight into your skin without leaving it feeling gross and sticky, which is something I hate in a product! I have this placed on my bedside cabinet and think it looks gorgeous on display.

Another lovely selling point is the two little quotes that come of the box itself when you open it up - 'High Five' and 'Be The Best Version Of You'.


Two Balmy


Two Balmy is a Lip Balm Duo which includes 'Sweet Mint' and 'Vanilla Cream'.

The first thing I want to say is that because of how this is packaged this would look so pretty hanging on the Christmas Tree as a little gift to open on Christmas morning. Now just like the Solid Fragrance these lip balms come in little tins which is an advantage for me, I hate nothing more than cheap looking plastic packaging.

Both lip balms smell exactly as described. Sweet Mint is a light pink colour in the tin but doesn't really show any tint when on the lips whilst Vanilla Cream has mire of a richer pink colour which does show on your lips, it's actually quite bright. I personally prefer Sweet Mint as I'm not a big fan of pink lips on myself but if you are I would recommend the Vanilla Cream as it will keep your lips extremely moisturised whilst having a nice pink tint as well.


Mini Fizz Bar Trio


And the final product that I picked up I the Mini Fizz Bar Trio.

As I haven't used these yet I had a sneaky look on YouTube and from what I can gather they are just the original Fizz Bar scent and style in three little packages. If you're looking for something new and have already got the Fizz Bar I wouldn't say grab these if they're the same unless you are like me and for some reason feel the need to buy every new product that you see! But again they are very cute and the original Fizz Bar is a nice product so they definitely won't be wasted!


That is it for this weeks blog post. Overall I would say my favourite products from this range are the Wonder Hand and the Blissful Mistful Solid Fragrance but I would recommend all of them as it is such a gorgeous collection and I wasn't disappointed with anything

As always I hope you enjoyed the read and please let me know what you think.

Collective Haul

Hiya Guys!

So for the past three weeks or so I've made some little purchases online and had two shopping trips to Leeds and I'm really chuffed with some of the things that I've bought, so thought I would share them with you.

Like I mentioned it's all within the last three weeks so everything in this post should hopefully still be in store, so you can go and grab them for yourselves. LET'S GO!

PS - I just wanted to add in case you hadn't noticed, I leave links to exactly where you can buy these products from. If you just click on the product name at the bottom of each individual section it will take you directly to the product for you to purchase it.

Lips in Boardroom


I have been looking for a grey/brown lipstick for SO long and my sister actually found this one online from Topshop. So when I was in Leeds yesterday I decided to go into the store and swatch it and it's perfect.

It is also a matte finish which is my favourite finish of any lipstick, but it doesn't dry your lips out either which seems to happen with some matte lipsticks. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a grey/brown lipstick.


Harajuku Lovers


I am completely and utterly obsessed with these Harajuku Lovers Perfumes! My friend Brooke introduced these to me and I had to go online straight away and buy some because they're gorgeous. They are a perfume by Gwen Stefani (my childhood icon) and have been out for years now - I can't believe I've only just got them. I'm not going to lie I did actually only buy them because of the amazingly cute bottles but I guess the lovely fragrance is an added bonus!

I bought four perfumes in the 10ml bottles as they're the perfect size to sit on top of my make-up storage. The fragrances I got were 'Music', 'G' and 2 of 'Lil Angel'. Now if you're a fan of Marc Jacobs 'Daisy' I would suggest you get the Harajuku Lovers perfume in 'Music' it is a near enough exact dupe. I compared my Daisy perfume to the Music perfume with my family members are they couldn't tell the different. I can't find the exact links as I got these off eBay and Amazon but they were around £9.00 each.


Yankee Candles


I haven't bought a Yankee Candle in years since having a crazy obsession in like 2013 that got a little out of hand... But since Autumn is coming I thought I would treat myself.

My all time favourite scent from Yankee Candle is 'Black Cherry' I am literally obsessed with it. It smells good in any season but especially Autumn/Winter time. Another one of my favourite scents is 'Mango Peach Salsa' but this is definitely a more summery scent so I only bought a tiny one so I could burn in within the next week or so. I have tried so many brands of candles and always find myself coming back to Yankee Candle.



Unicorn Money Box


Yep that's right, who doesn't need a Unicorn money box in their life? When I saw this in Paperchase I couldn't not buy it.

If you know me personally or follow me on Twitter/Instagram you will know that my room is full of little cute and random nic nacs. I just love stuff like this and had to buy it.


Gabriella X Primark


If you read my last blog post you will know that I was after a few things from the Gabriella X Primark range and they didn't have any in store. But when I went back to the Leeds store yesterday they had three out of the five items which I wanted and I was SO happy, although they didn't have the cat mug and heart mug :(

For those who don't know one of my favourite YouTuber's Gabriella brought out a 'Home' range in Primark. I managed to pick up three of the five items that I wanted and I am so pleased with them. The quality is incredible! I bought the Eye Mask (£1.80) which is a cute little kitty cat and it is SOOOO fluffy, not just on the outside but on the inside as well so it feels amazing on your face. I also bought the sippy cup (£4.00) and when I picked it up in store the first thing I said was 'How good is the quality?'. It's such a gorgeous pattern and is made from a really good quality plastic. So congrats to Gabby for your range, I love it! Unfortunately Primark still don't have an option to buy online so I will leave a link below to Gabby's interview with them.  


Gabriella X Primark


Swiftly following on another one of Gabby's products I bought was the plaque (£4.00) which says 'Being yourself is the prettiest thing you can be'. How gorgeous?

I have hung this next to the mirror on my vanity so I can see it every day when I get ready and give myself a little reminder, you can see a picture of this on my Instagram.

Something else I got from Primark is the gold & sign (£4.00). This isn't from the Gabriella X Primark range but in most stores seems to be placed around that section so it shouldn't be too hard to find!


Fast & Furious 7


Let me tell you about Fast & Furious 7 - INCREDIBLE.

As soon as I saw this in Primark I bought it straight away. This was hands down one of the best films I've ever seen. I already have Fast & Furious 1-6 on DVD so needed this to finish my collection. Now when I went to see this in the cinema I cried like a baby - if you know me you know how much I cry at Titanic and I cried even more at this. Now that is saying something, the tribute to Paul Walker is just beautiful. If you haven't seen this film you need to ASAP.


Real Techniques Deep Cleansing Brush Gel & Rimmel Wake Me Up Mascara


Since I own about 99% of the Real Techniques Brushes as soon as the brush cleaner came out I knew I needed to try this. I bought this from Boots and there was actually an offer where you buy one and get the second half price - this is still available and isn't just for the brush cleaner it can be used with any of the brushes! I haven't used this as of yet but be sure to follow me on Twitter to see my thoughts.

I also purchased the Wake Me Up Mascara by Rimmel in Extreme Black. Now if I'm honest I hate buying mascara because there is so much to choose from and I never know what to buy! But I purchased this as I really liked the shape of the brush and the fact that it came in 'Extreme Black'. Again Boots have another amazing offer - all Rimmel products are 2 for £10.



That is it for this weeks post. I have a very exciting post coming up next week which includes American Sweeties/Candy!

As always I hope you enjoyed the read and please let me know what you think!

Lush Cosmetics Haul

Hiya Guys!

Long time no blog....

But I'm back and I'm ready to take this shit seriously. I've gone through a bit of a rough patch lately and after lots and LOTS of overthinking I decided to give this blogging mallarky another go as I am forever shopping and don't feel that my little Twitter and Instragram haul's are doing it for me. I love sharing what I've bought and letting people know about exciting things in stores at the moment. So let's get to it....

On Bank Holiday Monday I took myself to Leeds to buy a few things and to be honest, it was extremely unsuccessful. I wanted to purchase most of Gabriella's Primark Collection and there was only one thing in store and then I had a HUGE list for Lush but only managed to get two things because they'd all sold out. So this is a mixture from in store and online.

The Comforter - Shower Cream


Yes that's right, they have made The Comforter into a Shower Cream - WHAT THE HECK. If we go back in time to my first blog post in October 2014 I mentioned then that The Comforter will always be one of my favourite Lush products and now they've made it into a Shower Cream and I couldn't be happier.

So not only can I use my favourite scented Lush product when I'm having a bubble bath but now I can use it in the shower as well - woop! For those who aren't familiar with the product the Lush website advises that it has 'Cassis Absolute' which is 'Comforting and Fruity', 'Bergamot Oil' which is 'Uplifting and Cleansing' and 'Almond Oil' which is 'Hydration for skin and hair'.


The Experimenter - Bath Bomb


If you use Instagram I'm 99% sure you will have seen this product featured on someone's profile. A lovely picture of it fizzing away in their bath (PS I will be doing one of these generic pictures). So you will know that it looks AMAZING...

That was my reason for buying this and it seemed to be very popular as one of the lovely ladies in store told me that it sold out within days of the delivery coming in. So as soon as I got home that evening I went straight online to place an order to make sure I didn't miss out it! I haven't used the product yet but like I say make sure you're following me on Instagram to see what it looks like. It smells very Autumn and Christmassy which I love - perfect for the upcoming months. The ingredients include 'Tonka Absolute' which is 'Sweetly Scented', 'Fair Trade Vanilla Absolute' which is 'Sweet and comforting scent' and 'Vetivert Oil' which is 'Restorative and Relaxing'.


Milky Bath - Bubble Bar


I believe this is a fairly new product and it was one on my list to buy. As well as the crazy sweet candyfloss scents I also wanted to buy some products to calm and relax me and I was drawn to buying this for that reason (and also because it's extra cute).

This is a bubble bar so will last you a few baths. If you haven't used a bubble bar before all you do is break a piece off and crumble it under the water and TADA - you have bubbles! The ingredients were another reason I bought this because it contains extra moisturising ingredients which is amazing for the colder months. Some of these include 'Skimmed Milk' which is 'Softening and Soothing', 'Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter' which is 'Softening and  Conditioning' and 'Patchouli Oil' which is 'Exotic, earthy aroma'.


Butterball Bath Bomb


This was another one along side Milky Bath which I wanted to buy as more of a relaxing bath product. This one is a Bath Bomb so you just need to drop it into your bath and let it fizz away and create a beautiful scent and silky feeling water. When this fizzes it releases tiny pieces of cocoa butter which will melt in the water and make your skin feel SOO smooth and moisturised. I would 100% recommend this product if you have dry or sensitive skin.

The key ingredients are 'Cocoa Butter' which 'Soothes and Softens' and 'Ylang Ylang Oil' which is 'Sweet, heady and floral'.


Bubblegum - Lip Scrub


This Bubblegum Lip Scrub is a re-purchase for me because it is SO yummy, it also does a really good job at exfoliating your lips (but the number one reason it's because it's yummy).

These are extremely good products for people with chapped lips or for those who just want to make your pout more 'poutier'. All you need to do is apply it to your lips and scrub it in and because it's made from all natural ingredients you can lick it off when you've done! MMM. It's also a well know fact that regularly exfoliating your lips can make them more plump. The two main ingredients are 'Caster Sugar' and 'Organic Jojoba Oil'.



Pink Flamingo - Reusable Bubble Bar


The reusable Bubble Bar's on sticks are such a good idea. I find that they last much longer than a normal Bubble Bar because all you have to do is swirl it around in your water and you can see the bubbles forming. And it's a Flamingo... Why else wouldn't you want a Pink Flamingo that can make amazing bubbles in your bath?

This is one of the more sweet 'candy' scents and I absolutely ADORE it. Literally whilst writing this blog post I have picked up the stick and smelt it around 2401 times, I'm obsessed. There is nothing more satisfying than when you want to have a pamper and having a bright pink girly bubble bath that smells sweet and fruity! The Lush site says that the main ingredients are 'Ylang Ylang Oil' which is 'Sweet, heady and floral', 'Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter' which is 'Softening and Conditioning' and 'Rosewood Oil' which is 'Antiseptic and Uplifting'.


Intergalactic - Bath Bomb  



This was one of the main reasons for my visit to Lush along side The Experimenter, as this was another that kept appearing on my Instagram feed.

This is a peppermint smelling product and from what I've seen makes your bath look like outer space when you drop it in. I am so excited to try it out (and take another Instagram picture) and see what it looks like for me. It also seems to have glitters and shimmers inside from what I've seen that make the water glisten. The main ingredients are 'Peppermint Oil' which is 'Cooling and Invigorating', 'Grapefruit Oil' which is 'Uplifting and Refreshing' and 'Cedarwood Oil' which is 'Toning and Balancing'.



 Charity Pot - Hand and Body Lotion


And finally I just wanted to write a little bit about this product. Each time when you take a trip to a Lush store they always ask whether you would like to donate £1 to charity for a little sample size of Charity Pot. I always do this and I probably have about 10 of these lying around my bedroom and in my handbag.

This Hand and Body Lotion really is incredible. I completely forgot about it until my recently visit in store and used it one night after doing my nails and fell back in love. I've found recently that my cuticles have been getting very dry and hand cream doesn't usually solve the problem but this did the trick. Not only does it make your skin feel beautiful but it smells incredible too. You can find out more of what happens with the donations HERE.


So this weeks post has come to an end. I am aiming to do a new blog post each week so look out for them. As always I hope you enjoyed the read and please let me know what you think - it really is appreciated.
