Lush Haul!



Floating Island Bath Melt || A French Kiss Bubble Bar || Fizz Banger Bath Bomb || Stepping Stone Foot Scrub
 

It feels like it's been ages since I've done my last Lush something. I suppose that I should be proud, given how much I would be spending if I allowed myself to give in whenever I felt the temptation. Which, for your information, would be every second day.

 

My Lush has recently gone and gave their already amazing store a massive revamp so really I was just doing my duty as a mall go'er to support them in their endeavours. I was being selfless until I became selfish and wanted to buy everything and call the lovely sales girls my best friends. It's near impossible to feel unwanted in that store. If your being ignored by the humans in your life and you don't have a dog, go into your local Lush shop because everything will be set anew! Maybe if there was lovely bath bubbles and oils around in when WW2 began things wouldn't have gotten so messy! They really just needed a lovely soak whilst listening to Michael Buble. Solved!

Alright let's get less controversial. I think that it's safe to say that the majority of people love Lush and all the wondrous things that lay perfectly inside. I for one could hold back no longer - this is what I got.


Floating Island Bath Melt She smells of lemon, vanilla and cocoa butter. Basically you let her float and fizzle away in your tub whilst you soak and transport yourself to an island full of Johnny Depps fanning your tanned 6 pack'd body. It's really too bad that it's not actually reality, but if this is as close as I will get to him I'll take it 100 times over. This bath melt is specifically great if you have dryer skin and hate taking the time to moisturize your entire body. You'll never have had a bath as long as the bath you'll have with this melt. Luxury has never been so cheap or found in such a compact form!

A French Kiss Bubble Bar Who doesn't love the deliciously calming scent of lavender? Crazy people, that's who!(unless you don't - your definitely not crazy) I wish I could just soak in a vat of lavender oil, but seeing as how that would be ridiculous, as well as exceedingly expensive, I will happily make do with this bubble bar. Frenchy has the best arms that just wrap around you and allow you to fall asleep within a swarm of comfort and bubbles. What more could you ask for?

Fizz Banger Bath Bomb This bath bomb has pop rocks in it. As if you need a better reason to get this star, which you don't, it also smells of apples and cinnamon toffee! How does this exist?! I have no idea but I am overjoyed that it does. Pwef, Lush has gone above and beyond and I think they deserve a cuddle for this one. How many times have you been in your bath thinking about how much you wish fireworks would just spontaneously start? Obviously people at Lush, which is why they get paid the big bucks. Such beautiful minds! Toffee in a bath bomb! This is happening!

Stepping Stone Foot Scrub So feet are gross right? Not with this smartly designed foot scrub. Its in the shape of a foot. Can I please just be inside the mind of a Lush designer? After summer my feet where surprisingly scuffed up, also I just wanted to try the scrub, so I decided to give this good boy a try. So glad that I did, not only do my feet now smell of a refreshing drink of lemonade, but they also look like I've paid someone big smackerolies to bring my feet back to their former glory. $4.50 for this foot shaped foot scrub. I could lick my feet, if I was flexible enough, and would find it a delightful experience. True story.


I wish I could say that it will be awhile for the next Lush haul, but it's Christmas soon and we all know that Lush is the best play on earth at the most wonderful time of the year. I'd probably say that there will be another next month.

What are your all time favorite Lush products that you can't live a good life without?
 

Links I Love #5

Yet again the week has gone by and once again it is Sunday. Weird how that works aint it?

Not really? Oh..yeah I didn't think so either..

Here's to another round of Links I Love!

Have a Little Faith In Me - John Hiatt

This is my favorite song. Have you ever felt as though you were struck to the heart by a certain piece of music? This is mine, every time I hear it I instantly start crying. John Hiatt is a master - can we all go and ask him to sing this at my future wedding? Also the link I gave you has Benny and Joon playing in the video. Just listen and maybe it will strike you the way it struck me.

Baby Orangutan

Yep that's right. Baby Orangutans! In shopping baskets, getting bathed and being fed by bottles! Can you contain your excitement! Just watch it and come back, I`ll wait...

 Christmas at Lush

I can`t tell you how excited I am for Christmas this year! Especially looking at how amazing the spread is at Lush! They have out done themselves yet again. I might as well just hand them my wallet - it would probably be cheaper. I have a problem..

Thanks so much for reading! Have an amazing week everyone!

Tell me what Lush products you are lushting after this Christmas season! Super embarrassing how proud I am right now after using and creating the word lushting!



Links I Love #4

 

 

 

How is it already Sunday? These weeks have been going by so quickly, it's crazy! If you're weeks are going by like a sloth climbs (and if you have a blog), then I highly recommend starting a weekly blog segment. You will be astounded at how quickly the times comes to write the next post! Now that the ramble is out of the way, here are my top 4 links that I have been loving this week!

 

 

How Do I Put This Gently

This is such an amazing Tumblr for when you get home from work, when you're so fed up of life and all you want to do is stop thinking. If you go to this page, I guarantee that you will forget all about the busy day you have had, as you will be laughing far too much to remember.

 

How Do I Put This Disney

Sure it might be a bit of a cheat to put this one on as well but really, it's Disney! Just copy and paste what I put above except add Disney, which is often so much better! Also I'm headed to Disney next month so I might be a little biased. Have I said Disney enough? Disney.

 

The Chill of Winter

I hadn't noticed until I've been writing this post, how much I have been loving Tumblr this week! All the hidden gems get me so excitable, who could blame me? Especially with this little number. I know that it's mainly snowy and Christmasy loveliness, but I've already put up our Christmas lights... (shh it's our little secret - and my neighbours).There's also some autumn-ness mixed in as well, so boo!

  

 CTFxC || Internet Killed TV

It's definitely fair to say that I was 5 years late on this band wagon.. However, since I've emerged from whatever I thought was life, I can now firmly say that I am a Trippy fanatic and it feels damn good too! I have watched so many of their videos and lost hours of sleep, but oh it's so worth it!

 

 

 

What have been your favorite links this week? Let me know in the comments, also tell me where I have to go and what to check out when I go to LA next month!

 

Have an amazing week everyone! X

Fall Make-up Wish List

 

 

 

I cannot explain to you how insanely obsessed I am with fall fashion and make-up this year, without coming off completely hysterical. As you can probably tell by the lack of color diversity color above, I am loving the mauves, gold hued wines and plums to an embarrassing extent lately. How many burgundy's can you buy at one time without the cashier looking at you with the stink eye? Hopefully it's three and a rose gold shimmer. They're all significantly different...right?

    Estee Lauder Pure Color Blush Mauve Mystique || BECCA Shimmering Skin Perfector™ Pressed Rose Gold || NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil Train Bleu || Estee Lauder Pure Color Gelée Powder EyeShadow Cyber Ruby

 

 

What are some of your must have beauty items that your hoping to pick up in the next few weeks?

 Let me know in the comments!

20 Regretful Moments

I regret not bleaching my hair when I was younger as it was always a bad hair day regardless of the color. 

I regret not trying harder to make an effort to socialize with people in school because either I couldn't be bothered or I thought they were 'cooler' than me. Not true! Just push yourself - it's scary but maybe you'll meet your best friend!

I regret making myself seem like a stalker and creating a fake boyfriend called Dustin to make the guy I liked jealous. Shocking that it didn't work, isn't it?

I regret not attending school as often as I should have because it definitely made my friendships suffer. 

I regret not forcing myself to each fish when I was younger because maybe if I did I would like it now. 

I regret not dancing like a fool at all of the school dances. 

I regret not being in the high school drama club. 

I regret not pursuing music as much as I wanted and knew I could. 

I regret going to the first and only cheerleading class I've ever taken. 

I regret making the ducky face in all of my grade 9 pictures. Thankfully not the yearbook picture!

I regret paying $500.00 for clip in hair extensions! $500!!!! What an idiot!

I regret the pink cords I wore in elementary. 

I regret lying to you about regretting the pink cords....I freaking loved them!

I regret trying the blue cheese sample at the grocery store and puking 10 minutes later in the packed car park. 

I regret not making more giant M&M cookies when I worked at Cookies By George. 

I regret the blonde streaks that were supposed to be highlights that i couldn't afford to change and that made my hair look permanently greasy. 

I regret having fish. Disgusting creatures. 

I regret ever eating that pretzel wrapped hot dog in Seattle and the terror that later ensued. 

I regret the 2 hour bus ride to the outlets where the only thing I bought was said hot dog. 

I regret deciding that it was a good idea to lay on the ground beside my dog, who then proceeded to sit on my face. Our relationship just hasn't been the same since. 

Well that wasn't traumatic at all! It's not often that I sit here and think about all the ridiculously stupid and embarrassing things I've done throughout my life. It will definitely set you straight if you ever get to big for your boots! I highly recommend waiting for that time to do this.

What are some of the most cringe-worthy things you've done? Please let me know that I'm not alone in my stupidity!! X

Links I Love #3

 

 

Oh boy, do I have a lovely bunch of ladies for you this beautiful Sunday evening. This week I've been really getting back into beauty products and loving 'look book' type posts. Through this I have found some amazing girlies that are without a doubt going to be a regular feature in my future web-devours.

 

 

fruitybeauty by Zoe Foster

I have loved Zoe and her magnificent brows for such a long time! Her blog fruitybeauty features some tutorials from her book Amazing Face, as well as some crazy gorgeous photos. She has THE best teeth I have ever seen in my life and I hate her for it. Why can't I have those beautiful pearly whites?! WHY!!

 

Pollyanne b

Oh beautiful Polly and her disgustingly wonderful accent. I first found Polly through Beauty Bootcamp by Dailymix and thought that she was wondrous so naturally I went to have a look at her channel. Well good golly miss Polly she is simply delightful! If you haven't seen her videos please click the link above, watch a couple and come back to thank me for introducing you to your new favorite Youtuber!

 

Simple Sophie

Everyone this is Sophie, she is from Leeds and likes fashion. She is one hell of a blogstar and she knows it! Not only are her posts most joyous but the pictures give me endless goose bumps of jealousy. Don't we all wish we could be as genuinely tumbler-esque as dear Sophie here?

 

 

 

So I know that I normally do 5 weekly favorites but I've been really focused on all of the chickees up there, as well as living my dreary life. Maybe there will be all 5 next week..maybe there won't. I live on the edge like that.

 

 

 

Toodle-loo my lovely friends have an amazing week! X
