Lush Bubble Bars: Brightside & Amandopondo

Description of Photo Description of Photo Description of PhotoWhen it comes to Lush, their bubble bars are my absolute favourite. There is nothing better than having a nice, warm bath with a mound full of bubbles and amazing fragrances. Whenever I get chance to go in, I always find myself drifting towards the bubble bar section. What I like about the bubble bars is that you can chop them into smaller pieces without loosing any of their properties: they still smell amazing, produce the same amount of bubbles and make them last so much longer!

When I popped into Lush a few weeks ago I picked up Brightside and Amandopondo to try out as I haven't had them before. Both of them have "citrusy" scents which I love as I find it really refreshing and really wakes you up if you're having a morning bath. Brightside is almost the same as The Comforter however it has a much stronger scent. Huge notes of orange and bergamot break out the moment you crush it amongst your bath water. It also tints the bath water to a bright orange colour which looks amazing! 

Amandopondo on the other hand has a lot more of a relaxed scent. Hints of rose and lemon combine to give you a sweet uplifting fragrance that's relaxing and satisfying. To top it off, it has a cute purple rosebud inserted in the top I'm not really too sure what you supposed to do with it  which I just use in the bath and throw it away! Amandopondo turns your bathwater a slightly milky colour and produces loads of foamy, moisturising bubbles!

Boots Haul - Spring 2014


Everyone loves that time of the month when you purposely cannot hold yourself from buying make-up that you don't need - eh? Well, that I have just been through and placed a cheeky order from Boots. I usually buy things in-store but what the heck, I needed to brush the dust off of my debit card (kinda). Anyway, enough with the rambling, here's what I ordered:


1. Real Techniques Silicone Liner Brush - Yep, it's another Real Techniques brush. I already have 6 of these but funnily enough - none of them are for my eyes. Since I wear gel eyeliner using a normal brush is an absolute nightmare as I end up washing it everyday. When I found this I went a little crazy; I figured it would be a lifesaver. As the end of it is silicone, my eyeliner won't dry on it and I feel it will give a more precise application as you won't get the stray bristle that wants to make a line of its own.


2. Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion -  Now this is a definite need. I've wanted to pick this up and try it out for ages as I've heard really good things about it. I suffer from really dry skin but an oily t-zone (in other words - awkward skin) so I need something that will provide me with both benefits. Since Clinique are skin geniuses I am not going to argue with their amazingly brilliant products and I'm sure I won't be disappointed.


3. Sinful Colors in Glass Pink - This is a typical Instagram pick-me-up, every girly feed on Instagram features at least one of these and I've decided to see what all the fuss is about.  Glass Pink is a pearl shade so contains specks of sparkle amongst the most prettiest of pink colours.


4. Revlon ColourBurst Lip Butter in Pink Lemonade - I have to be honest, I am not a 'BabyLips' fan as I feel the colours are toolimited and they don't last very long without constant re-applying. However, I do like the idea of lip butters as they are very moisturising with only a pop of colour unlike lipsticks. Revlon Lip Butters have been about for awhile and the odd one has popped up on Instagram. So, I decided to pick up one and I can't wait to try it out. This one has a natural pinkish tone but not an over the top hot pink.


5. Sinful Colors in Easy-Going - Once again, I picked up another to see what all the havoc was about. This one however is a very pale pink almost white colour. I own about 2,343,569 nail varnishes but another 2 can't hurt - can it?


Here's what I bought:
