Lush Valentines picks that have me in love...

Recently I Skipped into my local Lush store eagerly anticipating the new Valentine's collection and consequently spent a good half an hour smelling everything that didn't look remotely familiar and basked in the Lushy ambiance.

BTW I do realise this is yet another post about Lush but that is what I really wanted to talk about and with V-day just around the corner it seemed apt.  Unlike the Christmas collection which consisted of quite a few trips to town and stockpiling ButterBears and Yog Nog soap to an unhealthy extent, the Valentines collection didn't quite excite me as much but two products in particular had me in love instantly.  The Unicorn Horn bubble bar and the Floating Flower bath bomb.

The Unicorn Horn is probably the most talked about product this Valentines day and it deserves every bit of love.  Described as 'a magical bath filled with beautiful neroli and lavender essential oils, sparkling lustre, rainbows and dreams'  

Just a small section of the horn created an entire bath filled with lilacy lavendery goodness and I may have to stockpile these magical mythical creature before they become extinct.  The Floating flower is my favourite though as it smells just like the flying fox shower gel which at one point was all I used in the shower!  There is only one word to describe this product...Jasmine!  It's packed full of jasmine absolute which makes me very happy and you're left with beautiful shades of pastel pink and orange bath water.

If you love Lush but aren't too sure what to pick up from the Valentines collection these are two products you should definitely have a play with...

What's your favourite of the bunch..?

 

A Lush night in...

I can still remember the first time I walked into a Lush store, it was quite amazing. It was the Lush store at London's Liverpool Street Station (the old location by Boots) and all I remember is being hooked from the very beginning, I bought a little bit of everything that day and have done ever since.

Ever since then I've had a bit of a Lush obsession...in fact I would sometimes pass through Liverpool Street Station on the way to and from Uni just to pop into Lush and have a good old smell! So naturally when the time came for the christmas collection to be launched introducing brand new products I was more than a little excited!

This is a review of the new Golden Wonder Bath Bomb. The Lush website describes it as
'A sparkling innovative little bomb! Who else could possibly come up with a gift shaped ballistic that rattles? With its multilayers of magnificent colours in unwraps itself into your bath. It’s a cocktail in a cube!'

It smells amazing, very floral I'd say and relaxing with a shimmering gold outer wrapping and multicoloured mini treats inside, I'll let the pictures do the talking...

 



When I first bought one of these I kept it safely locked away in my little Lush box for quite a while knowing that I should take some pics for my blog before using it but a long day at work and a cold winter evening had other plans for my little Golden Wonder and I used it...

     

The lovely sea green colour was a very pleasant surprise but that wasn't the best bit...

After I got in the bath i distinctly remember looking to the side and seeing the most beautiful golden shimmer running through the green like little waves.  This shimmer lasts everywhere...on the skin, the hair, and all around the bath...

So naturally I brought another to blog with and it didn't disappoint...Priced at £3.25 it is one of the more pricey bath bombs but well worth it in my opinion. Cant wait to try the rest of the new products...

Ciao for now World
