What im loving this week! 9

The suns out, and its beautiful outside, so it time for a change for my hair, from poker straight to beach waves. This is the style I'm loving, i have been doing this to my hair everyday. To get waves to stay in my hair i use Big Tease gel from Lush, this is a really strong hold gel. It also adds shine and has an orange blossom scent.... and yes that's the back of my Head.

Gorgeous

Gorgeous is such a wonderful moisturiser, its fantastic for combination skin and leaves a matte finish, the smell of orange blossom in this is beautiful. Its a little on the pricey side but a little goes along way. This cream just melts in to my skin, and leaves a radiant glow. The moisturiser is the perfect texture. All the cold pressed oils leaves my skin ever so soft.

Lush haul

I have been working at lush for a couple of weeks now, and i had not really picked anything up for myself, i was all stocked up on lush products before i started working at lush and the lovely trainer had given me loads of products to try. So last week i did a little hauling. P.S i love The big tease gel, its perfect to get Beach waves in your hair, (i have a back up of this). oh and for all the Sonic death monkey shower gel lovers out there , its getting discontinued so pick it up whilst you can.

What im loving this week! 7

This week i am absolutely loving Volcano foot mask from Lush, this mask is wonderful, you apply it on for 10minutes and whilst you wash it off you massage it into your feet. it has pumice stone in it so when you massage it off it gets rid of all the dead skin. One jar lasts forever, i have all ready had 3 uses out of it. The Cinnamon in it really helped sooth my skin. it also has potatoes in it to help exfoliate. After i washed it off, i used Fair trade foot lotion, and it left my feet feeling really soft.

Update: Yey i got a job at Lush

I am soo happy right now, this is the very first job interview i have ever been on, i really did not think i was going to get the job, beasuse i had no sales experiance what so ever. After the interview, i just felt really down, thinking i had really messed it up, well i had nothing to compare it too. So last week i got a call, which i really didnt expect, asking me if i could come in for a trial shift, the trial shift lasted 4 hours, and i loved it, i was really nervous at first but everyone is soo nice. Yey so happy.... i get to work at lush!!!

Review:Lush, Snow fairy

Snow fairy is the yummiest smelling shower gel,it fills your whole bath room with the smell, it smells like fruity and sweets. It is Bright pink. It also only comes out every Christmas, so i have to stock up for the rest of the year, hence the two bottles. The snow fairy is meant to have iridescent sparkles and it doses but it all rest at the bottom even if you try and mix it, you still do not see in the shower.The shower gel makes you feel clean but not very moisturised. I think i like this shower gel so much because of the smell and the colour. The price is not too bad either i think its one of there cheapest shower gels Lush carry. You can also use it in your hair it lathers up really well,but i still prefer my shampoo. Also, a little of this product really does go a long way. This is also available in 3 sizes at Christmas time.

Review:Lush Olive branch shower gel

Olive branch is my most favourite shower gel, it smells amazing, this is not the typical smell i go for, but i really do seem to like this one, the smell is definitely suitable for men, that may be why i love it so much because it smells like men's cologne. This really moisturises your skin and makes you feel ever so relaxed. I like how it is oily at the top and then you shake it, and it mixes up. It lathers up loads in the shower. The smell is really addictive i could not stop smelling it when i 1st got it. I would definitely buy the is product again. You can buy it in 3 sizes 100g 250g and 500g.

My Lush cake

As you all know i have an obsession with Lush, there is one particular product that i really like and that is the Ring of roses butter cream. It has this amazing lemony Orange smell and feels great on my skin, very moisturising. So my parents got me the whole lush cake for my last birthday. I have a lot of family member and ended up cutting it up and giving half of the cake away but i still had loads left for me!!

Little Lush haul

So yesterday i was in town, and i really wanted to go to Lush and pick up the New sugar scrub that they have, And some more Magic bath bombs if they had any more left.I picked up 3 previously, and have one left. In the first Lush store i went into they ran out of the Magic bath bomb, then i went to another store and they had it.... for half price so i was like yey!! But i only picked up 2 as i have one at home. I love this bath bomb it is my favorite. To find out more about it check out my review on my blog of it.

I also decided to pick up the scrub, the green was meant to be for oilier skin. so i picked that one up. I want to use this to exfoliate my body.

I have heard about the Mask of Magnaminty, and heard that it is fantastic. It is meant to deep clean your face. I will report back after i have tried it.

Hair Care

I have very thin black hair, that gets greasy over night, i have tried loads of different kinds of shampoos and conditioners, nothing helped stop my hair getting greasy so fast , so i gave up and opted for something more environmentally friendly. I love Lush, so decided to try there hair care range. I was in the store and told the women what my hair type is, then she told me about Big shampoo and this other that shampoo that is meant to increase hair growth,i loved the idea of having thick hair. So i decided to try the one that increase hair growth. Its is called the New shampoo, one shampoo bar is meant to last as long as 3 bottles of shampoo bottles. It has Cinnamon essential oils and clove in it, to stimulate growth. It has no packing or preservatives, which is good for the environment and if you buy two bars together you get a tin free. It is easy to use, it lathers and cleans my hair really well. As for making my hair thicker, well I'm on my third bar now will report back after i have used may be 5/ 6 bars.

Next, i condition my hair with Veganese conditioner, this conditioner is for all types oh hair, it had agar seaweed gel to softener hair and also has lavender and lemons to add shine, which it does. This product is vegan friendly as well. The smell of this conditioner is amazing, i love the smell of lemons, it smells like burnt lemons to me. This conditioner makes my hair tangle-free and leaves it amazingly soft.

What im loving this week! 4

This week I'm absolutely loving, Cup Cake face mask from Lush. As you all know i have oily temperamental skin, and i find if i use this face mask twice a week it keeps my skin at bay! Theses fresh face mask have a self life of about 4 week, i find if i used i twice a week it last me 4 weeks. The smell is Devinne... i have to stop myself form eating it. The consistency of this product is rather thick, so it is not the easiest thing in the world to apply. This is best applied straight out of the fridge, because it is a fresh face mask it needs to be stored in the fridge also, if you take it straight out of the fridge it make your skin feel tingly when you apply it. The face mask has these little beads in, and when you wash the mask off you can rub the beads into your skin to give it a slight exfoliation. The Linseed and Cococa butter is meant soften your skin. Rhossoul mud is meant to cleanse soothe your skin. I would definitely recommend this product to every one with oily troublesome skin.

Yey Magic is back!

Ok, so there’s this bath bomb called Magic in Lush, it is amazing, it came out for Halloween last year, then it got discontinued in January. I bought it in October and i was to busy using my Christmas Lush stuffs, so by the time i got around to using Magic, it was January, and i LOVED it. but i was soo sad that they didn’t have it anymore. The other day I was in lush and i was talking to one of the women at Lush and she said that it was coming back in another shape, I was sooooooo happy and excited. So last week I was on the Lush website, i saw that it was back. This bath bomb turns your water this beautiful red to purple and then to blue colour, its almost two toned. It has this wonderful scent, its amazing, this isn’t normally the scent i go for, but i love it!! I will be picking up a few of these babies on my next trip to Lush!

My skin care routine

Ok, ok I will be the first to admit that my skin is far from perfect. I have oily combination skin and often break out. These are the products I use to keep my skin at bay.


Firstly, we have Herbalism cleanser, from Lush. This product gently exfoliates whilst getting rid of oil from my skin, It really balances out my skin. The smell will take some getting use to, I really did not like the smell at first, but now I don’t mind it as much. This product works best if you take a pea sized amount and add quite a bit of hot water and then mush it to a paste and rub onto my skin like a facial scrub.



Next, we have Tea Tree Water also, from Lush. I love this toner, it feels refreshing without stinging my skin or leaving it feeling tight. I use to use the Clinique toner number 3, I found that it stung my face, and left me with red veins, booo hooo. Back to the Tea Tree water, it has Tea Tree in, well duh hence the name, the Tea Tree helps cleanse, soothe and clear blemishes, which I have a lot of. It also, has Grapefruit water to tone and detoxify your skin and Juniperberry to refresh your skin.

Lastly, we have Enzymion, this moisturiser is for you, if you have oily, spotty skin. It is lovely and light but at the same time makes your skin feels soft. It is also great under make up. The Papaya in it is meant to cleanse, soothe your skin, whilst the Aloe Vera absorbs the oils naturally. It is truly a fantastic moisturiser.
