HUGE LUSH Halloween + Christmas Haul

 Hullo Ladies!

I've made three LUSH Orders this past month since they released their Halloween and Christmas Collections, this time of the year is the only time I really buy from lush so I like to stock up when I can :-) 

My First Order consisted of ;

500ml Bottle Of Snow Fairy (Christmas) Iconic scent for Lush Fans and one of the first product's I ever bought from the brand.

Sparkly Pumpkin Bubble Bar  (Halloween) A gorgeous orange pumpkin with gold luster. Smells very fruity. Not what I expected but nice none the less.

Magic Wand Bubble Bar (Christmas) One of the few products I've tried in the past, smells just like Snow Fairy!

Shoot For The Stars Bath Bomb (Christmas) I've used this already and have to say it gives a beautful show in the bath, I really grew to love the scent too which Ive been told smells like Honey I washed The Kids but I couldn't tell you for sure yet because I've not tried that particular product :-) 

Father Christmas Bath Bomb (Christmas) Smells like Snow Fairy and I can't wait to try it! 

My Second Order consisted of more Seasonal releases but also one permanent product.

Wizard Bubble Bar - Very cute, I've already used it so I'll be reviewing soon!

Phoenix Rising Bath Bomb - This is part of the permanent range but to me smells great at this time of year! Smells like cinnamon so definitely one to try if you're fan of warm spicy scents.  

Cinders Bath Bomb - This is the only other thing I've ever bought from LUSH in the past and it's amazing. Again it's very warm and spicy and it has popping candy! 

Candy Mountain Bubble Bar - Smells like Snow Fairy and for some reason reminds me of The Grinch. I'm in love with it!

So White Bath Bomb - I ordered this because I'd heard so much about it from bloggers, It smells like the skin of an apple to me, a very realistic soft scent. I can't wait to use it and see what the hype is all about :-) 

Golden Wonder Bath Bomb - Another much loved product that is supposed to be amazing when you put it in the bath. It makes a noise when you shake it so that's exciting!

Northern Lights Bath Bomb - This came broken so I emailed the customer care line and they've told me they are sending a replacement. I wouldn't usually complain about such a thing but I've heard and seen on Instagram how amazing this is! Can't wait to try it! 

Reindeer Rock Soap - I was dying to try a soap from the brand so I chose this one, it's smells very fruity and I love it :-)

Santa's Lip Scrub - For years I've heard amazing things about these Lip Scrubs so I decided to splurge and pick up the Santa's one. I have a lot to say about this one so I'll be reviewing soon!

So in the third and fianl order I chose:

Luxury Lush Pud - I decided to buy this one after seeing a video clip on Instagram it looked amazing! Can't wait to try it in the bath. 

Snow Fairy Shower Gel - I bought another 500ml bottle, I know, I'm naughty but it so darn good!

Yog Nog Soap - Oh My God, this soap smells so yummy. I really want to get more but I'm going to force myself to wait awhile! Three orders in one month is plenty!

The Christmas Penguin Bubble Bar - I've heard so much about this little guy that I had to try him out. He smell very fresh and I can't wait to see how my bubble bath turns out tonight :-) 

The Comforter - This is in the permanent line but I've  been meaning to try it for ages as it's talked about a lot! After hearing that it also shared it's scent with the Reindeer Rock soap I knew I had to get it! So glad I did. The smell reminds me of my childhood for some reason! 

So that's my HUGE Lush haul!

Have you ordered anything from the seasonal range yet?

My January 2014 Favourites

Hullo Ladies!

An end to another month, the first month in a new year in fact. Like Always I found January to go awful slow. Probably because I'm still on a downer from Christmas.

One thing that was exciting about January though was all the new products I got to try out!!

My first two favorites this month have been my new Sleek Blushes. I bought Flamingo and Pixie Pink earlier in the Month and I love them. I'm obsessed. I want them all :-) They're pigmented and easy to blend and last ages on me! 

I've also been loving my bottle of J'adore Dior perfume. It smells amazing! It's super fresh and feminine. I can't stop smelling it. I've worn it a lot of the month and I love that my leather jacket now smells of J'adore. It stays around for so long without being overpowering. 

As you may know I've had great results from using The Body Shop Tea Tree range and my parents bought me some more from the line for Christmas this year and one of the products was this Squeaky Clean Scrub, I didn't pick this up a few months ago because I didn't want to spend the money on a scrub that was only 100ml. Boy was I being silly. This scrub is amazing and guess what? You only need a pea sized amount for your whole face. It foams up beautifully and really helps to exfoliate your skin without being to harsh. I'm in love! 

I also received my first LUSH products this Christmas and I adored both of them but this Snow Fairy Shower Gel is truly amazing. I just love the smell. The Lush bag happened to be in my room the week before Christmas and that whole week my bedroom smelt delicious. I'm so gutted it's a seasonal product, I'm going to have to stock up next Winter. 

My last favourite of the month is this Soap and Glory Butter Yourself Moisture lotion. It smell's bloody amazing and my skin feels super soft after using it. I actually can't wait to pick up the Foam Call Shower Gel as I hear it smells the same as this Lotion. I'm sure I smelt this on a girl I spoke to in a pub last weekend, she smelt just like this. I didn't ask if she used this or had a perfume that smelt similar. I wish I had now! Does anyone know of a perfume that's smells similar? Let me know!! 

So what have you been loving this Month? 

Have any Sleek Blushes you think I should try out?!

Merry Christmas : What I Got For Christmas!

Hullo Ladies!

I hope you all had an amazing Christmas and are looking forward to the New Year :-)

In this post I'm going to talk about my Christmas Day and what I got for Christmas from friends and family. 

Look at my little cutie! 

He was so excited to get some new toys that he actually opened his presents on his own this year. After eights years I've never known him to rip wrapping paper to get to a toy but he really wanted to find out what was making that squeaky noise :-)

He loves his little Christmas Pig. 

Me and my brother Shaun decided to wake our parents up with moustaches this year. He already had his own so he decided to make a uni-brow instead.

I decided to put mine on rudolph :-) Don't he look cool? 

I was given a lot of beauty related gifts this year which I obviously loved! 

One of them happened to be the Soap and Glory Yule MOnty Gift Set!!

I was so excited to get this as I adore Soap and Glory and this box contains 9 full size products :-) 

From my nan I was given this Ted Baker Set, I've been meaning to try out the Ted Baker line for ages and my nan seemed to have realised! 

All products have a marvelous spicy floral scent. 

From my brother I was given some more Soap and Glory Products, I was so happy to receive the Eyes Box as It was on my wishlist this year :-) I can't wait to review it!

I finally have some products from LUSH and I'm so happy with them. I tried the Snow Fairy Shower gel last night and it's amazing!

I got some lovely goodies from The Body Shop as well which is always a good thing as it's one of my favourite brands!

I asked for some more of the tea tree line as I'm loving it at the moment and I received the Foam Cleanser, the Toner and the Scrub :-) 

I also received the Japanese Cherry Blossom Perfume set that includes the 50ml EDT and the 250 body lotion.

I also got one of my favourite scented line from The Body Shop!

The Strawberry set that includes four full sized products and a bath lilly :-) 

My hair has grown longer this year again so I asked for a new hair wand with a thicker barrel and my parents got me the Remington Sapphire Pro Curl.

Also from my parents I received a bottle of DIOR J'Adore.  

It's a gorgeous grown up scent that I'm super excited to wear! 

Another amazing beauty pick from my parents was the Urban Decay Smoked palette. 

The colours are so unbelievably beautiful and I can't wait to have some fun trying them all out!

The palette comes with a great how to booklet, a 24/7 eyeliner and a sample of the Primer Potion. 

Another set I was given was this French Connection Set that cam with a body wash, body lotion and body spray. It all came in a lovely cream wash bag too :-)

My brother also gave me the No 7 Manicure Set which I can't wait to use although I do find all those pieces kind of scary. They look like torture devices to me...anyone else feel the same way?

I also got a new bag and a new pair of Boot's from New Look!

Nice to have a change, I never really think to buy myself new boot's or bags!

A River Island purse which I asked for because both my purses broke in the beginning of December, so this was a must really :-) I just love how pretty it is!!

SOCKS!

Can't go wrong with socks for Christmas, thank you nan! 

A cute hat from Matalan from my mam and dad :-)

 I wore this shopping yesterday and all the kids in their prams were pointing at it lol

I also got a lovely new dress to wear out! 

It's a gorgeous velvet skater dress from New Look and I love it!

 My friend happened to give me this gorgeous necklace that I think goes with it perfectly :-) 

In my family, we've always had our biggest presents given to us by the dinner table after the Desserts. 

I don't know why or when It started but we've been doing it since before I can remember and this year I was given a Wireless Speaker System. I love it! 

 So that's everything I had for Christmas and I feel so blessed, I spent the whole day with family and we giggled, ate turkey and got drunk and that's really all you want out of the Holiday right? 

I really hope you all have an amazing New Years!
