Kind of Christmas Lush Haul!


Hello Again,

Today's post is a Lush Haul!! (let the angels sing) I loved how the woman appreciated that none of what I was buying was for Christmas presents - why not treat yourself? I can't wait to try all of these out - what one should I use first?! I will put Lush's description of each product in my little info bit just because some of them are pure genius!


First up is something I have heard a lot about and I'm so glad I finally have it - it's Snow Fairy Shower Gel! This honestly smells good enough to eat!! It's just like liquid candy floss, I really do wish I bought a bigger bottle so I will have to go back! 

'Come your eyes, make a wish and swish on shimmer with the sweet scent of candy floss' - well if that doesn't tickle tour pickle then I don't know what will. I can't wait to use this and I think April will be a fan of it too!


Next up is one of their Christmas Bath Bombs and it's So White! This one smells really fresh with a hint of apple! This one is going to be interesting, I can't wait to see this one when it's in the bath.

'Become the fairest of them all when you sink into a bath with this bomb. Bergamot and Rose give it an apple scent as pure as the driven snow'.


The past few times I've popped into the Aberdeen Lush I have looked for this one but it hasn't been there but this time - it was! It's The Experimenter Bath Bomb! I have to say this one of the most appealing bath bombs I've ever seen - my photo doesn't give it justice! I actually can't pin down what this smells like but it's strangely nice! Plus I've heard it makes a literal rainbow in your bath - who doesn't want that? The description wasn't actually printed on the label for this one so I took this off of  the Lush website.

'If you're looking for adventure... you'll find it in The Experimenter, starring vibrant colour, popping candy and Fair Trade vanilla absolute from near the Rwenzori mountains in Uganda. An enigmatic and comforting romance of... deep, complex vetivert notes that enthrall your senses before creamy vanilla and tonka provide a sweet antidote. It's everything you've always wanted to do ... and with a plethora of five bright colours, it's the only one you'll ever want to do it with again.'

Up next is something that was on my Dear Santa Wishlist that I did for Hannah Heartss (you can find that post here) it's the Magic Wand!! This again smells good enough to eat! I love all sweet smelling things and this re-useable bubble bar! How magical does this look? They really have thought out everything with this one from the smell, to the glitter all the way down to the ribbon and bell!

'Wave a magic wander bath time with this candy sweet re-useable bubble bar wand. Swish around your bath for Snow Fairy-scented bubbles then pop it on the side to dry out for next time.'


Next up is some more candy goodness, it's Candy Mountain! I think this is one of their Christmas bubble bars as I haven't seen it in store before and again just like the Magic Wand it's so so so sweet! I love the bubble bars from Lush as you can use them multiple times! Also for someone not being a massive Pink fan - I'm loving this!

'Make bath time an even sweeter treat with this bubble bar. Crumble under running water for mountains of glistening candy-scented bubbles.'


Last up is another Christmas Bath Bomb - it's the Luxury Lush Pud! Look at all those colours!! Now, this may sound weird but I think this smells like Sudocream (you know that cream you put on babies bums - yeah that cream) - not saying that's a bad thing but that's what this reminds me of! I'm excited to launch this one into the bath because I think it's just going to be an explosion of colours!!

'Catch 40 winks of Christmas Eve with Islands of foam and comforting lavender. Simply take this indulgent bomb into the water with you for a long relaxing soak.'


So that's all I got from Lush, not that much right?! Have you been into Lush lately to grab some Christmassy Products? If so, what ones are you loving?

My Review of the Make Up Revolution New-trals VS. Neutrals Palette!


Hello Again,

I have been doing quite a bit of Christmas Shopping lately but some how, along the way I managed to buy myself some make up (whoops). I have been eyeing up a lot of Make Up Revolutions newer palettes as I have a couple of them already and love them and when I was in one of my local super drugs as spotted this I just had to buy it! It's the New-Trals vs Neutrals Palette! 

I think this palette is beautiful! The shadows are lovely and are all really pigmented. I have been using this for the past few days now and I really like popping the second darkest berry shade under my water line for that pop of colour! This is also the first palette of theirs that I have bought when I comes with a proper brush, ok it's not a morph brush or anything like that but it's so much better than those annoying sponge tip things. It's great for weekends away and nights out as it saves you taking brushes with you.







 I think this palette is great for this time of year with the berry shades and the glittery shadows - perfect for any Christmas Night Out! What's your favourite Make Up Revolution Palette?

My Review on the Lush Flamingo!


Hello Again!

Today's post is going to be a little review on the Flamingo from Lush! These lush reviews are beginning to be my favourite kinds of posts as I get to treat myself to a long soak in the tub!

This fluorescent Flamingo is brilliant! I just ran this under the running tap and I just watched the pink bubbles appear and the smell was amazing! It was fresh a fruity and was a 'feel good' smell! The good thing with this little beauty is that it's re-usable so once you've used it just pop it to the side to dry out and it's good to go again! So after seeing my bath, April kept banging on about having a 'Flamingo Bath' so I caved in and let her have a shot and she loved it! It is the perfect pink bath for a girly girl!!

Beauty Haul!


Hello Again,

So yes, it's that time of year where we're treating all our friends and loved ones but who says we can't treat ourselves? Well I did!! I have been on a no-makeup buying thing for the past month now so I just couldn't resist these little beauties! As per, this is going to be a long ass post - so grab yourself a festive Hot Chocolate, some candy canes and kick up your feet!


Now a few of these things I had run out of so I just wanted to re-stock so that was my Garnier Micellar Cleansing water because I honestly love this stuff. It really does help to take of my make-up and I actually think it's help make my skin much clearer!

For my brows I stick to the Soap and Glory Archery brow tint and crayon - I did actually read on Hannah Heartss blog that they have brought out like a big brother version of this which I did want to get my hands on but sadly the boots I was in had run out so I just stuck to this one in the shade brownie points.

Soap and Glory had an offer on that if you spent over £15.00 then you got this cute little box of three products - this is going to be in a separate post but to take me over the £15.00 I picked up a mascara. I chose the (wait for the real really really long name) Thick and Fast Flash-Extensions Effect Mascara in wicked black! I used to use this years ago and loved it so I thought it would be a nice addition to my collection.

I've been hunting high and low for a good yet cheap matte bronzer and when I saw this massive ultra matte bronzer from Make Up Revolution I had to buy it! It's the perfect shade for me too its not too dark yet it's dark enough! YAY!

This next thing I adore!! It's the New-Trals vs Neutrals eyeshadow palette from Make Up Revolution!! It's bloody beautiful but I'm not going to say too much about it as I have a post on this too!!


2015 has really been the year where I've watched the most YouTube and like everyone else I have my favourites and yes Zoella, Zoe Sugg is one of my favourites. Now I do have a few things from her previous ranges but when I saw her video about her Christmas Range I just had to get my hands on something! So when I saw this cute little soap on a stick I just had to get it (I say this with everything, I think it's me trying to justify buying so much - oh well) this would also make such a cute stocking stuffer don't you think?


This last thing I feel I'm so late jumping on the band waggon but I'm so glad I did. It's the Maybelline Lash Sensational mascara!! I think I can honestly say that this is one of the best mascara's I've ever used! This makes my lashes look so long and so thick I love it! If anyone is looking to get me anything for Christmas just get me one of these! I highly recommend it!


So that is my 'little' haul. Let me know if you have treated yourself this Christmas and if you have what's your favourite thing you've bought?
