Hello all, long time no speak (again-sorry)!
I've had a funny couple of months but I'm hoping to start blogging regularly again, let me know what you'd like to see from me!

Today I'm going to talk about the Lush Valentines collection for 2019.
We've had a few returning products, Unicorn Horn bubble bar and Love Boat bath bomb; but there's a lot of amazing newbies.
Lush have received a bit of controversy this year due to their rude designs (particularly regarding Aubergine and Peachy bath bombs) but I think it's a breath of fresh air and frankly, hilarious.

The new products for this range feature some old favourite scents such as 29 High Street, Strawberry Twin Tub and Love.

What do you think of the range this year? Any favourites?
Here's a selection of photos from my local Lush.

The rude bath bomb duo! Aubergine and Peachy! Made (of course) to look like the two naughty emoticons we all know and love. Peachy is a sweet fruity peach scent, similar to Never Mind the Ballistics (NMTB) and Aubergine is that oh so succulent 29 High Street scent.

There's plenty of products scented with the American Cream classic this year...there's a body conditioner and shower gel, luckily Lush are producing both potted and naked versions this year, as well as a very popular green beauty- Avocado Wash shower gel. Tying in with the strawberry and fruity scents is Strawberry Whip soap which is Strawberry Twin Tub Scented.


We've also got a few spiced bubble bars, Open Your Heart which smells like the delicious Golden Pear; Six which smells like a super strong Yog Nog and Love Token which has the warming Ginger scent. 

 
Two returning favourites, Love Boat which has a sweet love heart candy scent, perfect for a sweet tooth! Or if you're feeling a little stressed and need some calm, why not try lulling lavender scented Unicorn Horn?

A gorgeously sour cherry flavoured lip scrub called Eve's Cherry as well as a rather large banana shaped massage bar...oooh err! Fans of the Love scent will also be thrilled to see the rather adorable looking Love Island scrub making its debut!


And last but not least, the gift sets! I took a photo of a few of them but the Llama of Love was by far my favourite, so damn hilarious (I bought one as soon as I saw it). I didn't get to take any photos of the knot wraps but all I can say is, get yourself on the website...

Anyways, I'm going to sign off.
I've been working on a few reviews which will be posted in the next few days, so stay tuned!

Much Love!

It's here! Welcome to the new and returning beauties of Lushoween! 

This year, the Halloween collection didn't change too much....

...Hedgewitch and Magic Wand soap didn't return, as well as Pink Pumpkin bubble bar and Pumpkin bath bomb.
We also had some new additions: Ghost in the Dark soap,  Eyeball bath bomb and Ectoplasm shower cream and perfume.
We've also had some lovely new knot wraps and gift sets which seem to have been a hit so far.

What do you think to the range this year? Any new favourites?
Here's some photos of my local Lush with all their gorgeous displays!




A beloved favourite in a beloved scent, Monsters Ball bath bomb. I hated the Calacas scent this time last year but once I tried this cute little guy, I was hooked! If you're on the fence about this fruity lime scent family, please just give it a go...you could be surprised.


Another very popular bomb, Lord of Misrule. I've heard rumours that it's smaller than last year though I don't have one from 2017 to compare.


Ectoplasm has been pretty popular so far, though has not really wowed me personally.


Another gorgeous returning favourite, Sparkly Pumpkin bubble bar. This scent is one of my favourites and in my opinion, is very very underrated. Review to follow, watch this space!


Eyeball bath bomb which is rumoured to be the same scent as Softy foot lotion. I personally do not see it but will need to purchase and do an in depth review.


The kitty is back! The Sultana scent has definitely grown on me during the last year and I'm very happy that this little cutie has returned, though not so happy about the price!


Ectoplasm bath bomb. Again, not crazy on the scent and this guy is a jelly bomb so I will probably avoid this due to my bad experience with Secret Arts jelly bomb.


Now, how cute is this little guy?!?! Ghost in the Dark is an adorable soap which actually glows in the dark! What more could you want from a Halloween product? Unfortunately (for me), he shares the Avobath scent.


How cute are the gift sets? I'll definitely be picking up the Bewitched one soon, the knot wrap has won me over! 
Anyway, hope you've enjoyed, I'll be updating with the new Christmas releases very soon (taking a trip to my local today).

Hope you're all having a lovely Monday so far, speak soon!

Becca xoxo

Hello everyone! I'm back! 

I'm so sorry that it's been so long, I've really struggled with finding the time to blog and my mental health over the past year has been far from good.

I've been thinking about changing my blog to focus on reviews of cosmetics (mainly Lush), adventures and also maybe talking about mental health if that would be of interest to any of you?

Speak soon!

Becca xoxo
