I Love Lush... Is it obvious?





So as you may have seen from my previous post... I had a little spree in Lush...
I love it a little too much I feel... Well I don't, but my housemate is constantly falling over bath bombs, and bubble bars trying to get into the bath... oops!

I had some money left on a gift card my Dad gave me back in February for my Birthday so I decided I wanted to get some products that I hadn't tried before to see if I ended up with any new favourites.

The first one that I spotted was Northern Lights.



I love purple, and I love the little stars embedded within this bomb. It has Jasmin Absolute and Ylang Ylang Oil in it, and smells amazing. I'm looking forward to putting this in my bath to see what happens!



Next was the Avobath,



I LOVE Avocado a lot a lot! So when I saw this one, I had to get it. It smells so different to the usual Lush smells I'm used to. Fresher!
It says to use this one in the morning rather than the evening and it's aim is to tackle dryness and skin dehydration using the avocado and olive oil.



Look how cute Butter bear is!



You can smell the cocoa butter in this a dream and smells kind of vanillary too. Cocoa Butter is amazing for your skin and has so many benefits including being really nourishing.



Oh No! His nose fell off! Poor Melting Snowman!



This smells similar to the Butter Bear but has a hint of Cinnamon and Orange. Yum! I love that it has a Christmassy scent to it. Perfect for this time of year. It's gonna make my skin soooo soft!


Sex Bomb, Sex Bomb, You're my Sex Bomb...



This is one that I have tried before... but was a long time ago now! So I think it can safely be in this haul. It's an old favourite for many, its very pretty to look at, and I love the rose detail in the middle on the top.
It has similar ingredients to Northern Lights with the added bonus of Clary Sage Oil which is what helps you relax. I have teamed this one up with part of the Comforter crumbled up with it previously and that was amazing! I might try it on its own though to get the full effect.

GLITTER!!!!!!



Woweee this is suuuper glittery and this makes me very happy with life. It smells lovely and I am more than happy to be covered in gold glitter to smell this. It has Juniperberry, Grapefruit and Lime oils to make this the awesome scented bubble bar it is.


Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeeeeeer...



I feel like I should be singing a mash up of Rudolph and Jingle Bell Rock whilst I type this...
Reindeer Rock is the first soap I have ever purchased. Well... not ever... I do wash! Just from Lush!
The lovely lady in my local shop introduced me to it after me explaining that my favourite product is The Comforter. She tempted me over saying it smelt similar and I could use this whilst in a bath filled with Comforter bubbles... How could I say no?!
It has Lingonberry and Cassis Absolute mixed in with lots of other yummy ingredients... I can't even... Oh my!

I Hope you have enjoyed my mini Lush haul. I certainly have!

Can you recommend any Lush products you would say are you're go to product?!

Much Love,

What I'm loving this week.


So I thought I'd share a few beauty and non beauty favourites of mine from the last couple of weeks.

First up is the egg house that my Dad and step mum brought myself and my flatmate for Christmas after me saying I liked theirs. It's looks super cute on our side. 



Also the heart shaped white ramekins they brought us too. They also have matching ones! 



I'm also loving my Urban fudge dry shampoo and hairspray. These smell amazing!!! And really work well. Definately will repurchase once I've run out! 




Next up are my boots from Primark. I brought these a few months back and I love them! They are so easy to wear with anything and everything! 
I love the gold hardware and actually prefer the worn in look they have now. 



I'm really loving scarves at the moment as the weather has got chillier. 
A couple of my favourites at the moment are this one from primark, I love the colour and it's super snuggly! 



Also this blue and green pashmina type which I got from H&M years ago and recently rediscovered it. Here's me wearing it today. 




These a just a few things that I'm loving at the moment. 
What are you loving? 

Much Love,

I Love New Things!




So after a very expensive month being December what with Christmas and New Years Eve I haven't been able to get everything I need this month so far... When I say need... I definitely mean want...

However! I have managed to pick up a few new products that I'm excited to start using! 

Firstly, I genuinely did need a new liquid eyeliner... Mine had started to make my eyes sting which is never good! 
I picked up this one from Soap and Glory. It's the Super Cat in Carbon Black and was a steal at £6!
I wore this when I went to my friends wedding reception at the weekend and I loved how easy it was to apply. It glides so smoothly over my eyelid and was super easy to do a cat eye. 





Next up I picked up a couple of Lush products after being recommended them on Twitter by my local store. 
Everyone knows how much I rate their Lip Scrubs having loved the Bubblegum flavoured one for a couple of years now. 
So I picked up the new flavour, 'The Kiss' and it smells soooo good! 
It's very sweet like the Bubblegum one but in a slightly different way, it's hard to describe! 



I also picked up the 'Honey Trap' lip balm  as recommended by them following my blog about High Street Lip Balms. This again smells amazing! 
Can't wait to start using it!



Lastly, I brought some MAC lipstick, because a girl has got to treat herself every now and again. 



I actually brought these from a friend who had purchased the wrong colour and didn't use them, but had lost her receipt to return them. Perfect for me though! 
It's from the Amplified line in the shade 'Impassioned' and is a gorgeous pinky red. I also picked up a lip liner to go with it which is in the shade 'Dynamo'.
I'm loving these together and intend to use this a lot over the coming months. Including my Birthday as it is Valentines Day and I think this is the perfect Valentines colour. 




I also recently purchased a couple of quad palettes to transfer some of my potted MAC shadows into to make it easier to take round with me. 



At the same time I brought a shadow to go straight in and went with 'Naked Lunch'.
It's a gorgeous neutrally champagney shade and I've been wearing it a lot! It's definitely become my go to shade for day time along with using it to highlight under my brow with a night time look. 




Have you brought any new products recently? Any recommendations? 

Much Love,
