Love that Lush Rating System


Hiya Lushies

 Im simply posting this as if your visiting this blog via your phone you may not see the rating system Ive put upon the main page .. so here it is for all to see to lessen any confusion xx


Honey Bee Bath Bomb

Honey Bath Bomb Review

I bought this this bath bomb as I heard it was soon to be discontinued and wanted to try it before it says goodbye it is also one of the cheaper bath bombs by Lush at £ 3.50 each (2016).

 I instantly liked it , I love the color yellow and personally found it quite pretty with its honey comb quality all though it is not not the prettiest of the lush rage by far.
while it isnt the strongest smelling bomb  before use , .From the moment you drop the honey bee into the water it releases a strong  perfume smell into the air that isnt a super sweet honey smell ,  I did find myself cupping the water in my hands and sniffing its intoxicating scent that lingers on the skin
 
In the water it doesn't float and isnt very fizzy it kind of  bubbles from the bottom of the bath turning it a lovely almost pastel yellow that leaves a patch of orange sediment that soon dissolves . 

Now I know alot of people find sitting in a yellow pool of water disturbing but I found it quite pretty .

As some of the main ingredients of this bath bomb are aloe vera and rhassoul mud it is very cleansing leaving the skin clear and moisturized after use to the point that I found I didnt need to use as much body lotion after bath as I normally would as a woman with very dry skinned areas 

If you enjoy a simple bath bomb without all the thrills and spills of bright colors and luster this could be the one for you so grab it before it goes.

Imperialis Review


Imperialis Facial Moisturiser



When looking for a Moisteriser Im never to sure what Im looking for , As Im quite new to Lush products I wanted to try one of the Least expensive ( £13.95 for 45g ) that is a all rounder just encase it didnt agree with me .
 I know that I have combination skin, greasy T zone and sensitive skin on my Jaw line that can sting if irritated and even become a little inflamed .so when I read on the website that this product is soothing with a anti-inflammatory factor it got my attention the site went on to stay that some of the ingredients have been used for centuries to restore and revive skin and so I was won, after all who am I to argue against the test of time.

The smell is hard to place ,I can tell it is a kind of mix between a herbal and floral scent but found it difficult to pick out individual elements however after reading the ingredients list I did notice that the tiger Lilly, vilot and lavender are probably the most prominent tones and while it does not smell of much in the pot when applied to the skin it  does deepen .

 The product itself is rather thin in texture and I was worried it would feel watery  on the face but it didnt at all, infact it soaks in very well without feeling heavy or clammy ,leaving a very slight barrier on the skin perfect for applying make up afterwards and is very nourishing.

Since using Imperialis my skin has been far more balanced and is looking healthy, it did not irritate my sencative jaw line at all I really enjoy this product .

Ickle Bang cocktail Review



Ickle Bang 

Ingrediants 

3/4 Big Bang Bubble bar
1/4 Soft Coeur Massage Bar
1 Ickle Baby Bot Bath Bomb

Method

  1. Crumble  the bubble bar Under the running water
  2. Chop 1 quarter from the massage bar and add it to the bath ( this may take a while to melt )
  3. When your bath is fully run add the bath bomb and watch it fizz 

Review

The Big Bang bubble bar creates some bubbles but not masses, However it turns the water a fantastic shade of sky blue, releasing a subtle fruity smell of lemon and grapefruit into the air.
Complimented really well by the baby bots citric acid  as well as bringing a light calming lavender scent into play, It also adds to the blue coloring making it a shade darker.
 The soft coeur is what really brings a extra element of luxury to this bath becoming the most predominant smell with its delicious toffee scent  as well as the Honey and cocoa center it really warms up the smell of this fruity bath and makes it a real treat for the skin.

The first thing I noticed when dipping my toes into the water was how moisturizing it feels on the skin with loads of cocoa butter, essential oils and shear butter, This does cling to the skin but isn't to greasy and soaks in after a while of being out of the bath so if you dont like the feeling of oil after this may not be for you but I didnt find it to oily.
The water looked and smelled divine , the scent stayed lightly on my skin afterwards but i will say dont wash your hair in the water as this buttery bath will stick to it.
All in All a simple but Fabulous Bath

Intro


Hiya Lushies 
Welcome to my new Blog

As winter is on its way and the days are getting shorter , Its not long entill we will all be in need of warming up , So this year I thought I would give myself a project to help keep the SAD at bay..

When I think of winter I picture  Dark evenings , hot coco ,Fresh snow and a warm open fire not to mention all those lovely Wintery smells around Christmas time.

One of the best things about when the weather gets worse is coming home , fingers like icicles, freezing cold and poring yourself into a nice hot bath filled with goodies , pampering yourself before climbing into some fleecy PJs and curling up on the couch in front of a film.

For me the perfect bath and  pamper products are from Lush Cosmetics.

Im no expert on Lush but in the short time ive been using them I have fallen in love  
So in short im asking to to follow the story of my Winter time romance with Lush Products in this blog to fight away those winter blues.
