January Favourites

That’s it, we are a whole month and a bit into 2017 already, and if I’m being completely honest, I’m not feeling it so far.  It’s been a pretty crappy start to the year, but here are my January favourites that have seen me through the month!

Tea Pigs Spiced Winter Red Tea

This has been my all time favourite brew this chilly January, it’s basically a cinnamon tea – but it’s mixed with loads of Christmassy spices that creates a delicious blend for a tasty brew.  It’s been my go to tea on a few evenings now, ever since I got one of these in my Pick ‘n’ Mix box at Christmas time.  So far, it’s been the only one that I’ve felt the need to go out and repurchase since then, so I think that is saying a lot!

The Body Shop Lip Balm

Another item that I received at Christmas was the Body Shop Christmas scented lip balms, in both Vanilla Chai and Frosted Berries.  Now had I been in store myself and seen these, I know I wouldn’t have picked it up as I prefer a lip balm stick opposed to the ones where you need to use your fingers to apply.  That being said, I’m so pleased that I was gifted these because they’ve honestly been amazing for my lips, I really love them!  They last for hours on end, they keep my lips hydrated and pretty without being sticky, and best of all, they taste pretty good too!

Superdrug Vitamin E Range

I’ve been super impressed with the quality of the Superdrug Vitamin E range this last month, although I have been a fan of their products ever since I went cruelty free in the summer, and I’ve loved their day and night cream for years now.   These creams work really well at giving my thirsty skin a little extra moisture both morning and night, and they never feel sticky or heavy on applications either.  This last month and a bit I’ve really fallen for their body butter, it’s super gentle on my sensitive skin and just works wonders at tackling the dry patches when my eczema breaks out.  It’s a super quality body butter, and I’m talking The Body Shop quality, at just £2.99 a tub!  Another products from the range that I’m really liking is the micellar water which I’ve been using both day and night to remove any leftover make up from my face and to just give my skin a little bit of an extra cleanse before applying my moisturisers.   What I’ve been loving the most about this is that surprisingly it’s actually feels really hydrating on my face, it doesn’t leave my skin feeling dry or tight after I’ve used it – which is a problem I tend to have with a lot of micellar waters that I’ve used in the past.  All in all, I’m so impressed with the whole range and would absolutely recommend that you give it a try yourself!

So although pretty late compared to everyone else’s January Favourites, these are the goodies that have seen me through the month and have gave me a little bit of joy too!

Have you tried out any of the above?

Until the next one,

Lush Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone, I hope you all had a lovely day with your loved ones and were spoilt rotten, I certain was!

I’ve been stocking up and loving the majority of the Lush Christmas range this year, having only a couple of bits that I missed out on.  This is what I’ve been loving over the wintery months…

Father Christmas Bath Bomb

This super sweet bath treat was exactly what I needed a few weeks back to soothe me the night before my seminar paper.  This shares a scent with the lovely Snow Fairy, which has the most gorgeous candyfloss sweetness to it.  Father Christmas smiles lovingly in the bath and releases a beautiful green centre which turns your tub into a sweet heaven.  I loved my Father Christmas bath and had hoped to pick some up in the Boxing Day sale, however I was too slow this year!  Here is hoping he returns next year.

Butter Bear

One of my favourite parts of Lush Christmas is the fact that they bring out the fabulous Butter Ball in bear format!  Butter Bear is packed with oodles of cocoa butter which not only smells delicious, but is amazing for dry and sore skin like mine.  Butter Bear smells of vanilla, but has the lovely hint of ylang ylang which makes that soak in the tub that little bit more relaxing.  Whilst he doesn’t put on much of a show, he does turn the water silky smooth – making him a favourite from the whole range.

Shoot for the Stars

I got this gorgeous bath bomb as part of a gift for my birthday, and it was absolutely mesmerising to watch is fizzle away in the water.  Shoot for the Stars unleashes a gorgeous shade of blue into the tub with sparkles and shimmers with oodles of glitter too.  My favourite part being the golden stars, these are cocoa butter pieces which leave the skin feeling well looked after.  It smells beautiful, and I’m so unset that I missed out on the chance to stock up on this too this year.  Again, I hope to see the return of this beauty next winter in store.

The Magic of Christmas

This is seriously got to be one of my all time favourite products from this years range, and to say that I’m devastated that I didn’t stock up before the sale doesn’t even cut it!  It’s the most beautiful bubble bar that I’ve ever seen in my life!  A golden star sat upon a cinnamon stick sealed with a ribbon and bell, The Magic of Christmas will unleash the most wonderful golden bubbles and shimmer into your bath water.  Simply hold under running water to unleash the magic, and not to mention the actual smell of Christmas too!

So there you have it, these are just a few of the items that I’ve picked up from this years range and I’ve loved!  I do still have a few items stashed away that I’ve yet to give a try, and I have a few others which I did manage to grab in the sale that I can’t wait to pick up either! 

Have you tried out any of the above items yet?  Did you manage to grab any favourites in their sale?

Until the next one, 

November Favourites

Can you believe that December is here already?!  I’ve been longing for this since summer, and now that it’s here it’s all going too fast - I’m two doors into my Yankee Candle advent calendar, let’s stop for a minute people!   

It’s been a while since I did a favourites post, so here is what I’ve been loving this month.

I treated myself to the Zoella Gingerbread and Vanilla Fragrance set back in October after watching loads of Vlogs online about how amazing it smelt, and I’ve been obsessed with it ever since it arrived.  The body cream smells absolutely amazing, like good enough to eat!  I like to apply this throughout the day for a spicy little pick me up, especially now that the colder weather is upon us.  The fragrance spray smells so amazing too, it’s like Christmas in a bottle and it’s perfect!  I’ve been using it most days to get me into the festive mood, and now that December is finally here, I have a funny feeling that I’m going to bleed the bottle dry before the 25^th!

I think that my absolute favourite product right now had got to be the This Works Deep Sleep Spray.  I never thought that a sleep spray would actually ever do anything… but this one?  I think it is the absolute BEST thing that I have ever come across.  Again, I treated myself to a sample bottle of this and the Stress Less roll on oil back in October, and I’ve been using them both ever since.  It works great for those days when I’ve had a super busy day at work or a horrible day at uni – I simply use a few pumps on my pillow and jump into bed.  Now I’m not saying that the stuff puts me straight to sleep, because that is not the case at all.  What I am saying though is that I have the best nights sleep when I use it – I sleep the whole night with little to no disturbances, and I feel so refreshed in the morning when it’s time to get up.  I’ve put this on my Santa list because I’m obsessed, so obsessed in fact that I picked up not one, but two copies of last months Marie Claire magazine – simply because you got a sample bottle with each mag! 

At the start of November I started to feel really stressed out with all of the uni work that I’ve got going on.  I had read online that essential oils are meant to be great for calming you down, so I ordered a peppermint roll on oil and ylang ylang roll on for a couple of quid off of Amazon, just to carry around on me whenever I’m at work or in class.  Although I’ve not been using the ylang and ylang one much, the peppermint oil has been life changing!  First of all it’s so refreshing to use throughout the day as a nice little pick me up.  I love minty smells, and so it’s really nice when you get a whiff of it as you’re going about your day.  Secondly, I think that it works really well for me whenever I’m feeling super stressed or a little anxious. I apply it to my pulse points, then I like to sit with the lid off of the bottle for a little bit, just so that I can inhale the minty goodness.  I like to concentrate on my breathing when I’m doing this, and normally this works really well for calming my nerves.  Finally, I love using this when I’ve got a headache.  Again, I just find the smell really soothing and I enjoy the tingly feeling that it gives my temples. 

And there we have it, these are the products that I’ve been swearing by this month!  They’re all kind of feel good products, which is actually quite nice for a change – as it’s important to take some time out sometimes and just look after yourself!

Lush Halloween Bath Bombs

October for me means that the count down for Christmas is officially on.  I’ve 6 siblings to purchase gifts for alongside my parents, boyfriend, his family and my pals – so I always start my Christmas shopping around this time.  I know… I’m THAT person.  Don’t get me wrong though, I might be gearing up for Christmas financially, but I’m still very much all about Halloween until November comes along.  It’s why October is my favourite month of all!  I’ve got all of my Halloween spiced candles looked out and they’re burning away, and of course I’ve been in and out of Lush on several occasions lately picking up their fabulously creepy Halloween bath bombs to set the scene.  With the weather finally turning that little bit chiller and the nights are creeping in that little bit earlier, is there any better way to end the day (or spend the afternoon?!) than soaking in a tub of spooky fragrances?

Pumpkin Bath Bomb

This was the one that I was the most excited to get my hands on when I first saw the list of Halloween Lush goodies this year.  Cinnamon is my all-time favourite scent ever, so the vanilla and cinnamon spiced pumpkin sounded like a beautiful spicy sensation.  Pumpkin looks rather creepy, he has a wicked smile that fizzles slowly in the tub, and eyes that watch your every move.  Although pumpkin does not give you much of a show as he fizzles out – his scent makes up for this in every way possible.  The room fills with his aroma that lingers on your skin for hours.  He leaves his mark on you with the ever so subtle glittery pieces that appear in the tub.  I was worried that his orange tint would leave the bath in an awful mess like Yoga Bomb, however I was pleasantly surprised when all traces of him disappeared down the drain.  I’ve fallen in love with Sir Pumpkin, and will absolutely be stocking up before he disappears for the year.

Lord of Misrule

I’ve heard lots of fantastic things about this particular fragrance over the years that I’ve been indulging in Lush.  Little did I know that the Sugar Scrub bar that I have picked up in the past shares a very similar scent with her.  Defiantly not a fragrance that I think everyone would be crazy about – I personally really like the spicy aroma and subtle exterior of the bath bomb.  After watching the Lush Halloween promo video – and I will admit that I watched that bad boy over, and over again – I was desperate to get my hands on one of these to try.  When you pop her in the bath the water turns a ghoulish green, and releases the beautiful scent into the room.  Moments later, the pink centre starts to spill into the water, resulting in the most mesmerising swirls of colours in the tub.  Even better, the popping candy starts to crackle, making the whole experience hat little bit more spectacular.  Lord of Misrule puts on a show that is not one to be missed – it will be a sad day when she has to pack up again for the year.

Monsters Ball
This fantastic little critter really made a crappy day into a wonderful evening.  Lime is one of my favourite scents ever, so Monsters Ball aroma really stood out at me when I picked it up in store.  Looking very innocent with just the one eye looking at you, it dissolves very slowly in the tub - keeping the best part for last.  Monsters Ball eye remains until the last of its presence fizzles away.  The eye consists of a very gooey, chocolaty smelling substance - the whole thing reminds me very much of a chocolate lime sweetie.  The water fills with a variety of blues, white, pink and purple colours throughout your soak, which all churn together to create a fantastic blue coloured water to spend the remainder of the evening in.  Monsters Ball is the perfect companion for when you need a little uplifting or you're simply in the mood for some fun!

These guys have been my favourite Halloween Lush goodies this year?  Can you spy any of your favourites too? 

Until the next one, 
 

The Good Hour…

Well, that’s it!  I am officially an adult.  21 is the year when you technically start to adult, but people don’t care if you mess up because “you’re only 21!”  By 22, we should have our lives together, either working full time and saving for the future or studying something that we enjoy (hopefully) and are working towards our dream jobs.  “No more messy around” so they say, however I’m quite content plodding along for now in my busy but relatively peaceful routine.  I feel so blessed to be surrounded by people who actually care for me, my family, my education, my well being and my happiness – thank you to everyone who has supported me in everything I have done this year, and an even bigger thank you to those who made my 22^nd birthday so special!

My birthday this year started four days early, when Martin and I traveled down to Edinburgh (first class!) for a spot of shopping, some fine dining, a stroll around the zoo and my first ever Lush Spa treatment, The Good Hour.  This was a gift from Martin for my birthday, and I had known about it for several months – simply because he wanted me to pick which treatment I wanted!  Honestly, nothing can compare to the amount of excitement that was  buzzing inside… except of course that time I found out I was getting my baby boy Hulk, Happy I Gotcha Day pooch! 

For months I’ve been putting ideas together in my head, trying to decide how amazing this experience was going to be.  I’m a Lush addict, I go to bed with the smell of my bath bombs lurking from my drawer… I have a problem, I know.  This being said though, there is no way on earth that I could have imagined The Good Hour treatment the way it took place on October 10^th – there are no words to describe how magical it was.  From the moment I made myself known to the staff, they made me feel so at home, so chilled and most of all – excited.  My therapist Janine was honestly the sweetest, happiest and most comforting people I have ever met.  She explained everything to me perfectly, whilst leaving the elements of surprise too where she felt need be.  I was so relaxed before the treatment had even started!  I’m not going to tell you anything much about the experience, as I found it to be the most magical event ever having going in with no clue what to expect.  What I will give you though is a few key words that make up the experience…

Think refreshing brews, witches style cottage, sea life, pirates and the BEST deep tissue massage that you will ever experience – did I say it was a 70 minute session?!

I cannot thank Janine enough for making my first ever Lush Spa treatment so special for me, nor can I thank Martin enough for the wonderful gift.  With The Good Hour under my belt, I’m ready to make my 22^nd year a special one – and I am already considering my next treatment too!

Have you ever been to the Lush Spa?  If so, what did you get?!

A Cheeky Lush Haul

My lovely boyfriend treated me to a lush haul for our three year anniversary recently, so I took this as an opportunity to try out a few bits that I’ve had my eyes on for ages, as well as picking up a few staple products.

Tea Tree Toner Tab

This is a product that I’ve been buying for around a year now as I just love how good it leaves my skin feeling after each use.  After reading a lot of reviews online, I started bottling the water after each stem session and I keep it as a toner.  It makes my skin feel cleaner day and night, hence why this has become a staple product for most of my Lush trips!

Whoosh Shower Jelly

The first shower jelly that I bought from Lush was the Nightwing one that they sell at Halloween, and ever since I’ve been obsessed with them!  They all smell incredible and although slippery when I the tub –duh, they’re jelly – they create a nice soapy (but not foamy) lather that fills the room with fragrance and leave you smelling funky fresh!  I have a Refresher jelly at my house which smells like lemons, so I picked up a citrusy Whoosh to keep at my boyfriends.

Yoga Bomb

Since declaring this bad boy as my favourite bathbomb a while ago, I really struggle not to pick up one when I’m in store.  The smell is just mesmerising, I’m actually keeping this one in my drawer at the moment until I fancy soak – so every time I open it I’m met with the sweet scent.  If you’ve not given it a go yet, you’ve got to! 

Charity Pot

This trusty little pot of cream does wonders for my skin, it a great little pick me up for when it's needing a little TLC, and the handy  little pot makes it perfect for carrying around on me when I’m at work, or for throwing in my handbag when I’m on the move.  I love the charity pot, and tend to always pick one up when I’m doing a random shop. 

Aqua Marina

It’s still early days yet, but I think this cleanser is either going to be really good for my skin, or do nothing at all.  I don’t normally go for a cream cleanser and so I'm not entirely sure what I should be expecting from this and how long it should take to notice a difference.  I can say that it’s really gentle on my sensitive skin, and leaves my face feeling really soft.  It’s an acquired smell I have to admit, however it’s super pretty to look at, which I guess it a plus!

Avo Wash

This smells incredible – it reminds me of the love heart sweeties and it smells good enough to eat!  This is one of the products that I’ve fancied for a really long time now, but always put it off as I was never sure what it was actually to be used for.  After speaking to a member of staff and doing my own research online, I discovered that this is in fact a conditioning shampoo – which a lot of people like to use as a conditioner due to it ingredients.  I’ve decided to do the same, and it’s done wonders for my hair.  It doesn’t lather like a shampoo – it reminds me very much of the Lush solid conditioner actually.  It makes my hair smell lovely for hours after it’s dried naturally, and although my hair does feel tuggy after use until I’ve given it a really good brush through when it’s wet, I’ve seen a difference in my curly locks already.  I will definitely repurchase when I run out of my block.

Trichomania

I picked this up after a friend from work told me that it was really nice on her lovely curly hair, and so I just had to give it a go too.  She’s not lying, it’s great!  This shampoo bar lathers up fabulously when I rub it though my hair, and after it’s been washed out, the shower fills with the sweet smell of coconuts.  I’m in love with this, my hair feels soft before I go to condition, and I’m just so impressed with the quality of the product.  You get a huge block of shampoo for less that £7, so I’m hoping that it’s going to keep me going for a long time yet.  My only concern is that it has become quite soft, and possibly melting a little due to the heat of the bathroom.  I will however stop storing it in there in a bid to save the block!  This is another one that I plan on repurchasing when I run out!

There we have it – I’m well pleased with my splurge in Lush this month, and think I’ve found myself a few new favourites too!

Until the next one,

Bath Bomb Lovin'

With every purchase from Lush I think that I become a little bit more and more obsessed… if that is even possible.  I’ve still not tested the water in regards to the Lush Kitchen, I think that that might actually break me and my bank account!  However since trying out lots of bath bombs for dry skin, and some simply because they look really pretty, I’ve been trying out some new ones and discovered a brand new favourite.

Yoga Bomb

This is the absolute holy grail of bath bombs!  I am in love, I am obsessed, I am attached.   It’s not one that I was super crazy about trying out for a long time, because it doesn’t look particularly fancy, on the outside it actually looks really quite bland.  But don’t let that put your off!  It smells absolutely gorgeous, it’s a really nice blend of oranges and sandalwood – a really subtle yet seductive smell.  I’m not sure that this fragrance would be one that everyone would enjoy, but it definitely does it for me.  When you pop it in the bath it doesn’t create a big song and dance like some.  Yoga Bomb fizzles away nice and slowly for around 10 – 15 minutes, creating first an orange lather – then green, purple and blue swirls as it fizzes away.  It’s one that is really great to use as a proper chill time bath.  Grab some candles, a good magazine and a glass of wine and enjoy!

Big Blue

I was in the mood to try out a new bath bomb last month, so after much debating and reading up online about all the different ones, I was pushed towards Big Blue!  I liked the idea of the seaweed, although I didn’t think there would be quite so much!  As Big Blue dissolves in the water the seaweed fizzes out with it – it turns really soft and mushy and feels amazing when you rub it into your skin.  It was totally amazing, it smells really beach like although also slightly tropical… which I think is the lavender and lemon working together.  I used this one at night, with my Candy Cane Lane Yankee candle burning in the background and a couple of my favourite magazines.  Although not particularly amazing to watch, it does turn the water the most perfect shade of turquoise blue, and will be one that I will be repurchasing again and again!

There have been a couple of other bath bombs as of late that I’ve tried out and really enjoyed, however wouldn’t necessarily pick up every time I’m in need of a bath treat!  Honey Bee smells absolutely amazing and made my skin feel so, so good afterwards!  However it wasn’t the best bath bomb I’ve ever used – it sunk to the bottom of the bath and didn’t create any kind of fancy waters.  The Experimenter was another one that smells gorgeous, it created lovely colourful images in the water and fizzled away for ages.  I particularly like the shape of this bath bomb too, it allowed the colours to fizzle outwards all at the same time, unlike the round ones that you need to wait for the layers to break down.

The Body Shop Treats

Another one from my June Lust List, on my last trip into town I also came away with a few lovely bits from The Body Shop, as part of my monthly treats to myself!  I know that The Body Shop are not registered on Peta’s cruelty free website as they are owned by a company who are not cruelty free.  This said though, as they alone do not conduct any form of animal testing, and are currently raising money to help to restore the rain forests -  I thought that they would be a good place to start looking for my toiletries!  I’ve been using everything that I bought for a number of weeks now, and have to say that I absolutely love everything that I picked up.  Alongside this, they also signed me up for their beauty card – which gives you a £5 voucher for every £50 you spend… which is super impressive!  I mean, how many other companies do you know that reward you so frequently?

Wild Argon Shower Gel

This smells amazing, like so, SO good!  I don’t even know how to describe it -  it just smells so clean and pure and fresh and amazing!  I was gifted a sample back at the beginning of the year and I put it aside because for some reason I just really didn’t think I was going to enjoy using it… silly me!  I splurged on this one a bit paying £4 for 250ml – it won’t be something that I buy myself all the time, I use all of my Body Shop goodies at my boyfriend’s house – so they will last me slightly longer than my Lush alternatives, as we don’t always stay there. 

Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner

I’m not going to lie, I thought I was getting myself a real bargain here.  I had done all of my online research prior to popping into store, and I knew that this pair were the ones that I wanted.  It was a duo that would be good for dry hair.  I’ve not been to the hair dressers in months (I know, not cool) so as you can imagine the ends of my hair are not in the best condition.  These two were perfect, as they are designed for just that!  However during my online prep, I spied them advertised for just £2 – winning!  Alas, upon arriving at the till it was brought to my attention that these 250ml bottles were £5… each!  I never spend that much on such a small quantity, but I was feeling a little spend happy – so got them anyway.  Although I’m not sure I’ll purchase again purely on the price (unless there is an offer, in which case I’ll be there!)  I have to say that my hair has felt absolutely gorgeous after every wash with them.  When using the shampoo, it foams up into a nice and thick lather, which doesn’t make my hair feeling tuggy when I wash it out, unlike some.  The conditioner is also nice and thick as you apply, and both have very strong scents of honey – which is not normally something that I enjoy the smell of, but for some reason I really like it in this pair!  Both really nice products, so I hope I can pick them up again should there be some kind of offer soon.

Hand Sanitizer

I picked up the Strawberry and Coconut versions on this trip, and they smell so good!  Any time I apply it, the smell lingers for AGES which sometimes leaves people asking me what I’m wearing because it’s so strong and pleasant!  Priced at £2.50 (and on 3for2) these will be items that I pick up ALL the time – they smell fantastic, last for ages and are generally just great value for money!  I always need to have some sort of hand sanitizer on me wherever I go, so why not have a nice smelling one?

Fun Bath Bombs

For a very long time I tried my hardest to avoid all of the Lush bath bombs.  There was two reasons for this: One, I can’t have a bath at my house, so I only get the opportunity when I stay at my boyfriends – so I didn’t tend to go for one that often.  Two, some of them can be quite pricey for my liking.  £4 for a singular bath bomb?!  Fair enough they are pretty huge – but jesus christ!  Funnily enough though, I am actually now converted (thanks to the Boxing Day half-price sale) and I do really rather enjoy treating myself to these expensive bath bombs and soaking in the tub.  There have been a few recently that I have tried out and loved, they were so fabulous actually that they inspired this post.

Intergalatic

I wanted my first proper bath bomb to be one that was going to convince me that there would be no going back to plain boring baths ever again.  I had bought several of the Cinders in the Boxing Day sale, and although they did leave me smelling amazing – they just didn’t meet my high expectations.  Intergalatic did however meet this criteria, it all started when I caught it sparkling away at me when I walked into the store.  I’d seen loads of pretty pictures and videos on Instagram prior to purchasing, so I knew from the get go that it was never going to disappoint.  Even before you pop this in the bath, Intergalatic looks totally mesmerizing, all of the colours are blended and swirled in perfectly with one another creating a beautiful image of a galaxy – with the glitter sparkling away at you with every twist and turn in your hand.  Loaded with peppermint and grapefruit oils – Intergalatic creates a beautiful and refreshing fragrance that smells so good, I’d love to be able to bottle it up if I could!  As you pop this bad boy into the water it creates colours and images that you cant help but take photos of every single time you go to use one!  Priced at £3.95, I would highly recommend this one to anyone you fancies a good old pamper session.  I like to use Mask Of Magminty while in the tub to create a real minty theme. 

Sex Bomb

I treated myself to this beauty back in April when I was in Glasgow with my sisters, taking them to a 5SOS concert.  When we discovered  that there was going to be a strong possibility that our room was going to have a bath in it (and there was – praise jesus!) – we all went to Lush and treated ourselves to bath bombs that we had not tried out before.  After being given a demonstration in the store of Think Pink by one of the assistants, he suggested Sex Bomb as an extra wee treat, which I decided would do the job just nicely.  It was one of those ones that ive been wanted to try out for a long time anyway, I had just never gotten round to making the purchase.  I loved the vibrant pink and purple flower on the top, it made it feel really girly and pampering – and that was just when looking at it.  To smell, it’s a really seductive kind of floral and jasmine scent.  It’s really pleasant, however to some it might appear to be over powering.  Sex bomb creates a very vibrant and beautiful pink coloured bath that creates a very chill and relaxed atmosphere.  And that little flower that I told you about?  It floats beautifully in the water until you decide you are ready to rub it into your skin like a soap.  I think my favourite part of this bath bomb is that the scent lasts a super long time – my sisters said that they could actually smell it on me at the concert – amazing!  Sex bomb retails at £3.50, and I would recommend it to anyone who fancies a real girly treat.

Lover Lamp

Although not as colourful and quite so exciting to watch as it fizzes away in the bath, Lover Lamp is another one of my favourite bath bombs now.  It makes me really sad that this is a limited edition bath bomb, because I now need to wait until next Valentine ’s Day to stock up!  Another one on the larger side, Lover Lamp creates a beautiful white a frothy bath for you from the moment you drop it in the water.  Packed with cocoa butter, orange oil and vanilla, it releases a delicious fragrance that absorbs into your skin – leaving you smelling pretty all night long.  My favourite feature of this one, is that the little red hearts are actually little pockets of cocoa butter – they float around in the tub until you feel like rubbing them into your skin.  Lover Lamp is a gorgeous bath bomb for when you feel like jumping in the tub, but don’t care for all the glitter!
