Lush Gift Box: HAPPY BATHDAY

Happy Tuesday!

Now that the weather's on the turn and the nights are slowly drawing in as we head into Autumn, I feel like I can start to indulge in more baths and I can't wait! So to celebrate this, today I'm finally getting around to showing you a Lush gift set I got for my birthday earlier on in the year.


Anyone who knows me knows that I love a good pun, and pairing it with a boxful of Lush bath goodies? Well, that's me hooked.  This brightly designed Lush set, HAPPY BATHDAY is designed by MinaLima and contains six different bath products (including bombs, bubble bars and fun) and even has a cute little duck-shaped banner, too.



The gift set includes:
1.  Sea Monster Fun
2.  Blackberry bath bomb
3.  The Experimenter bath bomb
4.  The Comforter bubble bar
5.  Rose Jam bubbleroon
6.  Dragon's Egg bath bomb

I've only ever used the Experimenter bath bomb before, as it's one of their newer products, and the classic Comforter smell in shower cream, so the bubble bar will be first on the list to use this Autumn! I'm intrigued by the 'fun' as I've never used it before, but after seeing that it's a multi-purpose product (you can use it as both a shampoo and soap) I'm looking forward to trying it out.

If you're thinking of going to Lush for a gift (for someone else or yourself!), I'd definitely recommend a gift box like this one, as you can introduce new products and try things that you wouldn't usually go for. Plus, the smell when you lift the lid off this tin is so beautiful, it feels like I've been transported to a Lush Kitchen!


I really can't wait to start using these gorgeous smelling products and fully enjoy them in the colder weather to come! What are your favourite Lush bath products?!

LUSH HAUL: New Products

As some of you know, last month we were invited to a blogger event at Lush Cardiff (read all about it here) and as well as having a browse at all the new season products, the girls at the store kindly gave us some of these to try out for ourselves. We also couldn't resist picking up a few of our favourites too! We couldn't not do a Lush haul, so read on to see what products we've been trying out these past few weeks!


Love And Light Hand Cream *
This super light hand cream is gorgeous, and so sweet-smelling with elements of citrus coming from the Brazilian orange and orange blossom used. This moisturiser sinks into the skin quickly, leaving your hands feeling smooth, but not greasy, and smelling lovely! K suffers a lot with dry hands during the colder months, so can't wait to keep testing it throughout the Winter.


 
 After seeing the Experimenter in action in the store, we were so excited to have one given to us to try out for ourselves! The scent is sweet yet woody, with vanilla and smoky Vetivert oil as main ingredients. We loved the explosion of colour in our baths and the popping candy helped the bomb fizz around, leaving an amazing trail of colour behind it. It's also full of glitter, so you leave your bath not only with soft skin, but feeling like a princess!


We've been hearing a lot of wonderful things about King of Skin for a long while now, so we took the opportunity whilst we were in Lush to ask more about it and try it before buying. After the we were given info about the product and tried it out for ourselves, we both decided to buy one. This body butter is essentially a bar that fits perfectly in your palm, making it so easy to use when in the shower! It is beautiful on the skin, it feels really nourishing - leaving your skin soft and hydrated. 


Salted Coconut Hand Scrub *
After trying this product in store, we both very nearly bought it ourselves. So S was thrilled to see it in her goodie bag! This scrub is the perfect product to soften your hands, as the sea salt is super cleansing. This product is the perfect softening treatment for your hands, helped by the use of natural oils: argan and extra virgin coconut. This hand scrub is also really quick and easy to use: you simply rub it onto your skin and rinse off!


After hearing such great reviews online of this new mask, K couldn't wait to get her hands on it to try it out for herself. This scrub has surely lived up to the hype, with the ground coffee being the perfect exfoliating ingredient teamed with sweet-smelling vanilla (Fairtrade, of course) and organic Agave syrup - it smells just like a sweet fresh brew. Perfect to use on your face in the morning for a little pick-me-up, it leaves your skin feeling smooth and wakes you up in the process!


Don't Rain on My Parade Shower Gel *
This product has become a staple to our shower routine: the mix of blueberry, vanilla and violet leaf combined create the prefect juicy-smelling shower gel. We also find this product very invigorating and refreshing-we can't get enough of it! The sweet scent will last all day (which may cause you to occasionally sniff yourself: you have been warned) and has definitely become one of our favourite shower products.

A huge thank you to Lush Cardiff for hosting and inviting us to their blogger event, giving us the chance to try out a few of the summer collection and being so helpful with showing us their new products. Pop into your local Lush to see what new goodies they have in store and let us know if you have any favourites: new or old! 


See you soon for another Changing Of Seasons post,
