A Bit Of Lush Loving (Haul)


Hey guys, I hope you are all well! 

I am just going to start this post off by saying sorry I haven't blogged in a while. If I am being honest, I just needed to take a few days off and think up some new blogging ideas. I would love to hear any requests from you guys what you might want me to do a post on. 

Recently, I haven't really been wanting to go shopping as I am trying to save my money... (probably never going to happen). That is until I went into Lush and wanted to by everything. 

So this is my Lush haul, hope you enjoy... 

The first thing I picked up was a Honey Bee bath ballistic - 


Let me just say, this bath bomb smells incredible. It smells like a mixture between honey and vanilla. When I walked into Lush I saw the little sign next to it and at first, I thought I wouldn't like the smell but I was so wrong. This bath bomb is meant to moisturise and cleanse skin. I think I will review these products and share my thoughts with you! I will also say the size of this bath bomb is HUGE so for the price it is really good for the money.  I believe it is priced at £3.35.




Blackberry Bath ballistic. I would say this was an impulse buy, when I got home, I decided i'm not a huge lover of the scent of this bath bomb but hey ho, I am sure I will use it. According to the Lush website it makes you feel relaxed and soothed so we shall see! It smells a little bit like a scented soap? The colour isn't all that exciting but I will see what it turns my bath water like when I use it. Then let you guys know or has anyone used it before and could let me know? I believe the price of this bath bomb is £3.25.


Space Girl bath bomb -

The smell of this bath bomb is insanely good, I could eat it. This is my favourite purchase of the day, that I will say! It genuinely smells like refresher sweets, do they still sell those? I think they do. I am so excited to try this bath bomb out and it was only £2.35, so not that expensive at all. Space Girl is also meant to cleanse and moisturise skin so look out for the reviews! 

The last thing I purchased was this... 

Dragon's Egg bath bomb - 

To be honest, I am still unsure if I like the scent of this bath bomb or not. It is a very sweet scent and I am just a little worried it might get too sickly but I will give it a try. I would say it smells like citrusy sherbet, so normally I would really like the smell but I am unsure. This bath bomb is also extremely big (practically like the size of my head!) I liked the sound of Dragon's Egg so I think realistically I bought it just for the name but oh well! Why not... The price of this bath bomb is £3.35. 

That brings you to the end to this post guys!

Have you tried any of the products mentioned? Feel free to leave in the comments your opinions :)

Lush 'Christmas Penguin' - Review

Hi guys! I hope you are all well & excited to hear what I have to say about the Christmas Penguin from Lush.

Again I do apologise that I didn't take a picture of The Christmas Penguin as when I got round to using it, it had kind of become miss shaped & its nose had melted... I didn't really think it would make a good picture but you can check it out on Lush's website here.

To start off, I was a little skeptical in buying this product because of the smell. It smells like old soap, but because it looked so cute I bought it anyway!

I have to say I really really enjoyed using The Christmas Penguin as it left my skin feeling extremely soft & moisturised. I was pleasantly surprised.

It turned my bathwater a lovely light blue colour & it didn't actually smell too bad. I would say it has a very clean scent. You have probably read by now in another Lush review that I have very sensitive skin & I suffer from eczema, so branching out in products that I use on my skin was a bit scary but turned out to be well worth it!

The Christmas Penguin bubble bar left my skin feeling great and it will definitely be purchased again.

How to use a Lush bubble bar - Simply crumble (in my case) The Christmas Penguin under a running tap & it will result in changing your bathwater a light blue colour.

Lush 'Magic Wand' - Review

Hello lovlies! Today I am carrying on with my slight addiction to reviewing the Lush Christmas products.

The product I will be reviewing is the Magic Wand reusable bubble bar. Unfortunately I do not have a picture of this product as silly me used it thinking I had already taken a picture but I hadn't! Oops.

The Magic Wand reusable bubble bar is meant to create lots & lots of bubbles & smell like sweet treats. The actual smell of this product is Snow Fairy but I just didn't think it did. I thought it smelt way to sickly & ended up making me want to get out of the bath.

I think the Magic Wand was the one I was most looking forward to using but I was sadly very disappointed. I was a little bit surprised by the price of this product which I believe is £5.25, but I bought it thinking I could use it over & over again & it would dry out quick and easy.

Onto my next rant, it took the absolute biscuit to dry out properly and left my windowsill all sticky & stained it with pink marks. I changed where I placed the product several times but it just would not dry out properly. I had to put what was left of it in the bin because it really was getting on my nerves. Even the colour it turned the bath water wasn't that exciting.

Overall, I think this product is overpriced, messy & really hard to dry out. I was very very disappointed by the Magic Wand & will not buy it again. Sorry Lush!

Thank you all for reading this post & I hope you enjoyed it!

Lush - Snow Fairy Review

Hi guys, I am back again with another review for you...

The product I am reviewing is the Snow Fairy shower gel from Lush. I know around this time of year it is some peoples tradition to go and get a few Christmassy products from Lush, this year I jumped on the band wagon and went for a look myself... I actually ended up spending around £25 (oops)!


Before buying this product I read a couple of reviews to see if people actually liked it, all the reviews I read seemed to be positive so I added this into my basket. 

I am always weary of using shower gels that I haven't tested before as I suffer from dry / sensitive skin and eczema which is a pain in the bum! Later that evening when I came home from shopping I ran myself a bath and tried this shower gel out. 

I was pleasantly surprised when it left my skin smelling and feeling amazing. The scent is very very sweet but if you are like me and is a sucker for sweets this product is perfect for you. The scent does cling on to the skin for around 1 hour after which can get a little annoying but it does wear off eventually. I only bought the 100g bottle as I was just trying out, however I am waiting until payday and going to get a larger bottle so it lasts longer. 

Although, if you are a person who isn't a fan of anything glittery going onto your skin or if glitter affects your skin this product does actually have glitter in. I didn't realise this until I started using it and I started seeing little specs of glitter on my body. Personally, the glitter doesn't affect me so coming from a person who has really sensitive skin it should be fine!

That is the end of this post lovelies! 

I hope you enjoyed this review and I hope it gave you some insight as to what lush products won't affect sensitive skin.
