3 Bath Time Favorites!

I LOVE to take regular baths, and i thought i'd share with you my 'Bath Time Favs'

 I have to exfoliate my skin at least twice a week, as it gets really dry and flaky, especially in summer... and like everyone else i don't want scales! I've really been loving this 'The Scrub Of Your Life' by soap and glory, with little micro beads, as it smells delicious, and gets rid of all the dry skin!

I love using bath bombs, as they really hep me to relax when I've had a stressful day! Good ol' Lush is usually the brand of my choice, as they're just so luxurious! My all time favorite one is 'Space Girl' It adds a little bit of sparkle, and no girl can live without sparkle in her life! The scent is amazing, and reminds me of traditional sweets! And best of all? It turns the water purple!

Finally, whilst relaxing i love to use a face mask. My favorite are the peel off ones, but sometimes i like to use thick fruity ones when i'm having a 'pamper night' (a regular occurrence). I like other brands too, such as the Planet Spa ones, which are great for clearing out my pores!

Lush Bath time: Space Girl

Hello my little lovelies! As you probably all know, I'm a HUGE LUSHie! Anything that makes bath time alittle more fun, is a bonus in my eyes! I love relaxing in the bath, and letting my worries melt away! I love to pop a little bath bomb in my bath to help with the process, and this one is my all time favorite!

Space girl, is one of LUSH's cheapest, but in my opinion, one of the best! It smells delicious, like sweeties! yummy! And leaves popping candy whizzing and fizzing around your bath!

The glitter makes your bath nice and glittery, amongst the purple-ness and leaves you and your bathroom smelling great!!

I seriously don't have a bad word to say! I can't even grumble at the price £2.25 for LUSH? sounds like a bargain to me!

Hoped you enjoyed today's short 'n' snappy post!

Bath time Beauties...

I don't tend to be much of a bath kinda gal in summer i tend to go for showers, but in winter, i can't get enough baths... When i have a shower, i don't feel as pamper somehow, and i have no clue why, i also tend to use more 'luxurious' products too. And i thought i'd give you a quick insight into what i use in a 'pamper' bath

Avon Advanced Techniques Moroccan Argan Oil:-  I don't always use this specific one, but i always use a hair mask. I was lucky enough to receive this one for Christmas, and have tried it out around three times, and so far i'm loving it, i'm thinking about doing a review soon so look out for that! But in general, using a hair mask, stops frizzies, helps split ends and makes hair silky soft. I don't use a hair mask every time i wash my hair, as i have naturally oily hair... once a week is enough for me! 

Soap & Glory Smoothie star Breakfast Scrub:- I LOVE this stuff! It smells like fudge / maple syrup! Yum... Its really good for exfoliating elbows and knees, and is also good for before shaving your legs and fake tanning! Its a very thick consistency,   and a rather harsh scrub, probably not very good for sensitive/ irritable skin (Scrub Of Your Life from soap and glory is a much gentler scrub) It gets rid of dry skin like a dream! I will definitely be repurchasing this, even though its rather pricey for a body scrub. 

Soap & Glory Clean On Me: - This body wash is in soap and glory's signature scent (like hand food and the righteous butter) Its a perfect body wash, and ensures a nice smelling bath time. I saw on one of MissBudgetBeautys videos, that this wash was really good to use when shaving legs, so i thought i'd give it a try, a by-gum its a winner. It leaves my legs feeling silky smooth! Its very creamy and moisturizing perfect for those winter blues!

Space Girl Bath Bomb: If you saw my post on what Abbie got me for Christmas you would have seen that this is my favorite bath bomb from lush. It smells like sweets and whizzes around your bath tub, what more you want? I'm not going to go into too much detail, as i practically did a full review on that post so check it out. But if your not a big fan of lush, you can just replace it with your personal preference.

Finally we come to Soap & Glory's Righteous Butter: - As i said above, its Soap & Glory's signature scent, thick and creamy. I tend to avoid moisturizing my legs (don't tell the beauty bloggers) as i find it such a chore. But since i tried this i can't get enough, i moisturize after every bath/ shower, and i can definitely tell a difference. My skins looking (and feeling) softer and much more moisturized! And the best of it all? It doesn't feel like a chore anymore, i actually enjoy moisturizing!!! 

Hope you enjoyed today's post my little lovilies!!!

Think Pink Lush Bath Bomb!

         Hello my little lovelies!! I'm going to be reviewing the Think Pink Lush Bath bomb, and its a cutie!

Okay, so as you can see from the picture above, think pink looks as good as it sounds, in comparison to many other Lush bath bombs, its on the smaller side, but there still enough product for your buck!! The three little flowers on top add a feminine touch, but do tend to pop out, to me this isn't a problem but for others it might be so... The smell is described as 'vanilla and Tonka' and to be quite honest i have no clue what 'Tonka' is but it smells delightful,  i'm not the best at describing but, i would say this is a subtle sweet/floral scent that isn't overpowering at all. I used this earlier this morning, and its left its scent all over my skin, yummy! My skin also feels surprisingly soft, which makes me feel like this is definitely worth the money.

When dropped (or popped, which ever you prefer) into your bath, Think Pink fizzes, and turns your bath a wonderful pink colour. Depending on what colour flowers, are on top, swirls of colour also swizz around! When the remainders of the bath bomb disappear into the water, small heart shapes of different coloured  pink confetti are left floating around, eventually these dissolve too, but they do prolong the experience! Sadly, this wouldn't photograph too well, sorry!

So in conclusion, Think Pink is great value, at only £2.50 for all of the above (moisturizing, smell, relaxing). I wouldn't use one every bath time, but i would consider using one often enough to keep me feeling chilled!

What did Abbie get me for Christmas?

Okay, so i know its been a while since i last posted, but hey ho its been Christmas, and my schedule has been jam packed! To get back into the swing of things i thought i'd show you the beauty bits Abbie bought me, and let's just say i was well chuffed!

Okay, so the first thing i opened was this little beauty! The soap and glory breakfast scrub! And my-oh-my it smells good! To me it smells just like fudgey-maple syrup flavor! M-mm. It's very thick, and GREAT for exfoliating all over, although i think it would be rather harsh to tr and exfoliate your face with, so bear that in mind! :) Soap & Glory range available HERE

As you can see from the above photo, Abbie bought me some good old lush. And im a HUGE lushie!!! I'm a big fan of the Christmas range at lush, even the wrapping, is extra cute this year!  

A gift from the angels? haha see what i did there? This soaps sadly only available around the Christmas period, but well worth the year round wait! I'm rubbish at describing scents so i'm gonna use the lush booklet to help me. This is a 'super fruity' scent, which is also rather sweet and delightful! Yum! Sadly, this soaps no longer available, but hopefully it will be back next year! 

Abbie obviously knows me VERY well, as space girl, is one of my fav lush bath products, from the normal range, and thankfully its available all year round. Its fabulous for fizzing and whizzing around your tub, and even contains some popping candy for good measure! This to me just smells like sweets! yay, i'm a big fan of sweets so thats' a winner! And for the price of £2.25, its one of lush's cheapest product, perfect for chillaxing! Available HERE

Finally, i got this little wonder, and i'm sorry i know the photo is rather crappy and doesn't really do the product justice! Again, this is from the Christmas collection, so its no longer available sorry. However its the cutest most glittery thing i have ever seen... And it smells really refreshing and citrus-y! Star Light Star Bright is a perfect post Christmas pick me up, so if its  in again next year be sure to check it out!!!

I also received, lots more smellies of friends and family, including a HUGE soap and glory set, and a Lush Christmas Bathtime favorites box set!!!
