Glogg!!!!

I'm sorry to say that it is more Lush (I'm not sorry, I'm in love!!)

I blame this purchase on YouTube. I was watching allthatglitters21's Lush haul (if you haven't seen her, or her sister juicystar07, you really need to take a look, they are gorgeous, with so much insight into makeup and beauty), and she started raving about this shower gel.

I just had to try it. Those girls have a lot to answer for!!!! I got the tiny bottle for £3.90, which is a bit pricey for such a small bottle, but it is limited edition. This smells like Christmas in a bottle. Cinnamon, mulled wine and spices, it is wonderful. This lathers up really well when used on a shower puff, and the aroma filling the bathroom this morning was out of this world. Even my brother liked it, and he is so fussy when it comes to scents, he hates my usual shower products, they are far too sweet. (it is very strange living with my brother and dad again, I haven't lived with them for three years, and at least my ex didn't moan about the bathroom being filled with what my family call 'crap'!)

I really enjoyed closing my eyes and enjoying the scent, which is a bit silly I know, but it is so comforting and warm its wonderful!!! I will defiantly buy again, its so unusual and unique.

What do you think? Do you know of any similar products?

Lush Karma Kream, Kinda funky.....

I warned you there was more Lush!!! I bought this at the same time that I bought Snow fairy, and to be honest Im not sure why.

Let me explain. I will start by saying that I do like this product, The consistency is good, it spreads well and sinks in really quickly. I also think it is very well priced, at £11.20, I feel it is value for money. The thing that I am not sure about is the smell. I will say right now I am not drawn to just one type of scent, I like sweet scents, and foodie scents, and even sometimes herbal scents. However, this is a smell I would never normally be drawn to, and I am not sure why I chose it over some of the other moisturisers. To be honest, I think my brain was having a day off when I went shopping in Lush for the first time, or it may have been beauty product overload, because when I came out of the store and smelled this again, I thought 'what the hell were you thinking!!!!'. It is not a bad smell by any means, and I am sure people adore this, but I think it smells kinda 'off'. I really cannot describe this, except to say it is not for me. You can definitely smell the patchouli, so if you like that fragrance then this is for you, but for me it is a bit 'meh'. I will finish it up (waste not want not), but I don't think I will buy again. Oh well, its an excuse to try some of the other moisturisers, OMG,however will I cope............

What do you think of this? which one shall I try next? I am open to suggestions, so please let me know. I have very dry skin, so if you are a scaley Lush lover too, let me know what you love!

Lush, How I love thee.......

Well, lets kick things off with some Lush shall we? I am fairly new to Lush, and I must say I am a convert. Are you, like me, one of those people who becomes obsessed with a particular line for a short time, and feel the burning desire to try everything in the range? I really hope I am not alone in this. I have really fallen hard for Lush,and I think I might be in love with her for a while yet!!!!

I cannot believe I always managed to walk by the Lush store and not go in, my subconscious either knew that I would develop a costly addition, so made me stay away, or she was sunning herself on a beach somewhere and not really paying attention whenever I walked past the shop. My mind is paying attention now though, its all I seem to think about, I am very sad!!!

I will start off with the first product that I bought form Lush, which was Snow fairy.

I bought this on my mothers recommendation. I adore sweet fragrances, and mum just raved about this, so I thought I would give it a try. I'm so glad I did. Its priced at £5.95 for 250ml, which I don't think is that bad.  For those of you who haven't tried it, get out there now if you can and have a sniff. It smells to me like proper old fashioned bubblegum, which can only be a good thing. The fact that it is pink doesn't hurt either. I do have two very minor complaints though. First of all, I really wish the gorgeous blue sparkles wouldn't sink to the bottom. I have been shaking this baby for a few weeks now, and aside from building up my arm muscles nothing has happened, all the good stuff is still on the bottom. Secondly, the fragrance doesn't seem to last on me very long, I don't know why, I really want to smell yummy all day, and I know fragrance lasts different lengths on different people, but it didn't last beyond an hour on me.

Have you tried it, what do you think?  Despite the minor issues, I will buy a big bottle before it is whisked away in the new year. I have also bought the Godmother soap, which has the same fragrance, so I might try layering the two together, just to see if that helps the longevity.

More Lush goodies to come, I went a little crazy!!!!!
