Empties #14


I normally publish an Empties post once a month but I forgot to publish this in August- whoopsy! I've got a bunch of skincare empties so let's see what I've got:


I've finally finished my Soap & Glory Clean On Me Shower Gel! I've been using this for god knows how many months so I feel like I've achieved something finishing this! It doesn't really have a particular smell, just a classic creamy body wash smell. I love Soap & Glory products whether it is bath and shower or make up!


Another Impulse body spray has been gotten through too and this time it is 'Tease, Red Fruits & Woods'. These always appear in my Empties posts and to be honest I don't normally find that they have very distinguishable scents so I don't really mind what I use...as long as it makes me smell better!


As a long term fan of the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water I thought I'd try the newer Pure Active one which is supposedly for combination to oily & sensitive skin. To be honest I found the original one was already perfect for my sensitive skin so I don't really see the difference between them. Either way it's good though.


I've had this Bath & Body Mimosa & Violet body spray for years and never used it because I wasn't a big enough of a fan of the scent to spray it all over my body. However, because I find the scent quite fresh I instead used it as a room spray! Once or twice a day I'd spray it in my room and it would just make it smell a bit better. I liked using it when it was hot because it seemed to make things cooler. I don't really know how true and scientific that is but that's what it seemed to do anyway.


Cotton buds: boy do I make use for these! I am constantly buying cotton buds because I use them everyday for make up. I use it to clean up eyeshadow excess, straighten the edges of my lipstick and eyeliner as well as getting foundation off of my eyebrow hairs. I like to get ear piercings a lot too so I need them for cleaning my new piercing. Cotton buds are essential for me! I wrote a blog post on various ways to use cotton buds ages ago.


Finally, I used up the Superdrug Tea Tree facial wash. I always use a tea tree face wash for my acne prone skin and the past few months I've been using a foaming cleanser one from The Body Shop. However, when I went travelling in June and holiday in July I needed a non-foaming one that I could decant into a travel bottle so I bought this Superdrug one! It doesn't dry out my skin and I know I'll go for it every time I go travelling now.


See you for Empties #15!

Lush Wishlist



Christmas and birthday come Lush heavy for me so I don't normally have reason to go and buy a few things in Lush. However, there are quite a lot of new things in Lush now that I haven't tried and these are the 4 things I am desperate to buy!




  • You've Been Mangoed Bath Oil- I've never eaten mango but I love the scent so I have high hopes that this will smell like mangoes! I've also never tried the bath oils before so I would like to try one. On the Lush website it seems the water goes a beautiful green colour and I love a vibrant bath!

  • Lava Lamp Bath Bomb- This bath bomb looks super cool! It makes the water orange and has purple orbs floating around on the surface of the water just like a lava lamp. Whoever came up with this is a genius.

  • Don't Look At Me Fresh Face Mask- The colour of this is what originally had drawn me to it. I want to have a bright blue face! The Lush fresh face masks are always a winner. This mask has got both refreshing and moisturising properties in it so I think this would be a nice one to use before an event.

  • Pink Flamingo Bubble Bar- Why wouldn't you want a flamingo bubble bar?! This just screams cocktails and holidays at me which I am totally all about. 


What do you want to try from Lush?

Skincare | My Body Scrubs Collection


Last week I shared with you my face mask collection. Today, I thought I would show you my, slightly larger, body scrub collection. The main time I like to use body scrubs is before I shave to exfoliate the dead skin cells and allow a closer and cleaner shave.



  • The Body Shop Vanilla Bliss Body Polish- I like the smell of this as it really does smell like vanilla. The body polishes are in quite large bottles so will probably last a long time.

  • The Body Shop Cranberry Body Polish- I believe this was a Christmas limited edition one that I am still yet to use! I don't normally eat cranberries or have them in the house but I do like the smell.

  • The Body Shop Strawberry Body Polish- I sometimes have an issue with strawberry scented products because a lot of time I find they smell really fake and synthetic. However, this one does not smell synthetic to me and I really like it! 

  • The Body Shop British Rose Scrub Sample- This is a sample of the British Rose Scrub which was brought out for Mother's Day this year. I had a hand massage done with the range and the scrub really did make my hands feel soft so I'm looking forward to using my sample. I'm going on holiday so will probably bring it with me!

  • The Body Shop Coconut Body Scrub x2- I've got two of these (one in the picture and one in my shower) as I specifically asked for it for Christmas. Like the cranberry one I don't ever eat coconut but enjoy the smell. I also particularly like this scrub as it's thick and creamy. I would recommend it for sensitive and/or dry skin.

  • Soap & Glory Sugar Crush Body Scrub- The only non-The Body Shop product! I recently spoke about the body spray of this but I've also got the scrub. Because of the sugary lime smell I bet this would be invigorating for a morning shower and feel nice on a hot, stuffy day.


I should probably also mention the difference between The Body Shop body polishes and body scrubs. The body polishes are in the form of a shower gel as well so foam up like a shower gel. They are more gentle than the body scrubs because they're literally scrubs and not gels.


What body scrubs do you like?

The Body Shop Event | Pinita Colada


Hello all!



You may remember that a couple of months ago I went to an event at The Body Shop @ Cribbs Causeway which was their first event!


Well, last week they held another event to celebrate their new Pinita Colada range; a summer range with a Pina Colada scent.



On arrival we were greeted with pretty little pin trays with popcorn and a cookie on, as well as a drink. The drink was Pina Colada juice and even the popcorn was Pina Colada flavoured! It sounds wrong but it is surprisingly nice. 



Next I had a hand massage with the Pinita Colada collection under their taps. I had my hand exfoliated and moisturised which made my hand smell lovely and my skin looked brighter. Not to mention relaxed! I particularly liked the Pinita Colada Body Sorbet as it feels much lighter and absorbs faster than a body butter yet still moisturises all the same. This is probably my favourite part of their events.



Afterwards I went ahead and had my make up consultation. I wanted to know more about their blushers so the make up expert pulled out a few of their blushers and applied a neutral matte one on my face. She then showed me their new Instaglow CC Creams and tried the Peach Glow one on the back of my hand which gives your skin a glow and deals with redness. The packaging is rather nice and as someone who loves colour correcting I think they're a great idea. They also have SPF which is a bonus! In addition there are new Shade Adjusting Drops to adjust your foundation if it's not the exact colour of your skin which I think is a fabulous idea.



Lastly I had a skincare consultation with a skincare expert. Last time I had a consultation they recommend the Aloe Soothing Night Cream to me which I bought and loved so I really wanted to take her advice again as my skin has changed recently. I explained to her that because of new medication my skin was now rather dry but still acne-prone so she recommend me some of the same products as before and some new ones. I also asked her about SPF moisturisers for going abroad with as I have been looking for the perfect one!



I enjoyed the event as much as the first one and as before the staff were lovely. They also kindly gave us goody bags and I was excited to see the new Instaglow Peach Glow CC Cream in it so I will definitely be writing about that at some point!

Haul | Travel Size Products


In June and July I am going abroad so I needed to stock up on some travel size products. All products mentioned are 100ml or under which fits in with the UK's guidelines on bringing liquids in your hand luggage.


The first item is simple but important- Carex Aloe Vera Hand Gel (50ml). I want to bring it with me so I can bring it out with me to make sure my hands are clean. I like the aloe vera one as hand sanitisers can be drying and I have sensitive skin so aloe gel helps to keep my skin calm. Pretty simple really!


The next item is a slight cheat. This item I already owned so I didn't buy it with the others but it is still a travel size product that I am bringing. This is The Body Shop Strawberry Shower Gel (60ml). It is the perfect size and the strawberry scent smells particularly fruity and perfect for summer.


Then is the travel size of Batiste Blush Floral & Flirty Dry Shampoo (50ml). The scent doesn't really matter to me but I use dry shampoo every week of my life so this is a necessity! The big bottles I usually buy are way too big to bring so this is a good size.


As someone with lots of baby hairs that stand up on end, I need hairspray. Likewise to my dry shampoo, my usual bottle is a huge bottle so would be no good for travel! This is the L'Oreal Elnett Satin Extra Strength Hairspray (75ml). The Elnett hairsprays remind me of my Mum as I always remember seeing them on her dressing table as a kid. When I used to do dance competitions she would use it on me so for that I just had to buy it when I saw it!


For heat defence, I picked up the VO5 Smoothly Does It Tame and Shine Heat Defence Spray (100ml). I actually didn't realise until after I bought it that this is for dry hair rather than wet hair which is when I had it in mind for, but it should be okay! I always try to avoid hairdryers but regularly use hair straighteners. 


Lastly is my all time favourite, Urban Decay De-slick Make Up Setting Spray (30ml). I buy this regularly on FeelUnique and love it for travelling. It keeps my make up in place well and I love it for hot weather as it has temperature control. It works wonders for stopping my make up from melting off in the heat! If keeping your make up in place on hot days is an issue for you then I really recommend this.


So that's it! Anything else I need travel sizes for I am just decanting from my full size products into empty travel bottles.

Lush | Intergalactic Bath Bomb


Hello everybody :-)


What's that? Another Lush bath bomb review? Yep, that's right! This is the Intergalactic bath bomb which I got for Christmas as it was on my Christmas list. As someone who loves things all space, this bath bomb instantly appealed to me. It is a blue bath bomb with streaks of bright colour such as yellow and pink through it.


Intergalactic doesn't have a particular smell, it just has that usual bath bomb smell. Ingredients include peppermint oil (to cool), grapefruit oil (to refresh) and cedarwood (to balance). It also has fun stuff in it as it has popping candy and gold/silver lustre. You know it's going to be one of those bath bombs that put on a show!


First of all it is a fast fizzer. It starts off blue and then fizzes out the random bursts of colour that look like tiny little islands on the water. What's super amazing about this bath bomb is that when the water fizzes out it swishes round to look like the galaxy; fitting in with the space theme. The best way to describe this is to show you a picture:


Then you begin to hear the popping candy. The gentle popping noises are actually quite therapeutic and last until the bath bomb finishes fizzing. This is such a nice effect and reminds of Star Wars when you hear them shooting in space.


When the bath bomb finishes you are left which a beautiful bath full of various blue tones that quite frankly, looks stunning. Throughout the water there are tonnes of glitter floating about which represents the stars. Admittedly I could not stop staring at it all!


The only annoying thing about this is that when you empty the bath, you are left with A LOT of glitter in your bath. It is easy enough to remove but it can be annoying to run the shower over your bath when you've just chilled out and your muscles are relaxed. It also means that your body is left with glitter all over it, so I would not recommend putting your face in it! Unless of course you want to be glittery for a certain occasion. 


In conclusion, I absolutely adore this and will buy it again and again. In fact, I would say that it is my favourite bath bomb! I used to love Space Girl but I think this one has taken over. It would also make a fantastic gift. Even my boyfriend commented on how awesome it looked and he's not interested in Lush!


What's your favourite bath bomb?

Lush | Father Christmas Bath Bomb

Hello!


We all probably know by now that I love Lush and do like reviewing Lush products, so it is by no surprise that today I bring a review on the Father Christmas bath bomb. I debated whether there was any point reviewing a limited edition Christmas bath bomb now that they aren't available but I decided it was for 3 reasons. 1) There may be a few people who got this bath bomb for Christmas and haven't used it yet so may be interested to see what it will be like. 2) The Father Christmas bath bomb is a repeat product so will be likely to be available at the end of 2016 too. 3) Who doesn't like reading Lush reviews anyway?!


The Father Christmas bath bomb, like you would expect from the name, represents Father Christmas. It is a round pink ball with Santa's face carved out in white. Because of this, you'd think your bath water would turn a pale pink. But does it? Oh no. Instead, your bath turns a wonderful, bright Christmas green with white froth floating at the top of the water. The bath bomb fizzes at a medium pace, letting out bursts of green which come to surprise you. 





So I've tried to do a bit of research about the ingredients of this bath bomb because it is not on the Lush website any longer and I couldn't pinpoint a smell when I used it. The bath bomb does include citric acid and synthetic musk, and so some reviews I have read has said that it has a citrus scent to it. On the other hand, I have read elsewhere that the scent is the same as Snow Fairy. It may be that they have changed the scent of the bath bomb over the years, but to be honest I couldn't smell anything strong from it anyway, which doesn't bother me. Additionally, it doesn't seem to have any butters in the ingredients but I did find it to make the water slightly soft, thus giving a moisturising feeling to my skin.


Apart from the mystery of the scent and ingredients, I quite liked this bath bomb. My favourite type are the type that surprise you and this green really did surprise you considering it comes from a pink and white bath bomb! I loved the colour and it is probably up there in my favourite colours from bath bombs. I enjoyed it and wouldn't mind using it again next Christmas. So thanks for that bath, Father Christmas!


Also, I did film this bath bomb fizzing out on my Instagram. So if you'd like to see my demo of it, please visit my instagram @BrionyBea!

My Current Scrub #5

It's that time again!


Last week I finished by scrub from #4 and so this week I bring you my current body scrub #5. This is The Body Shop Coconut Sugar Body Scrub. As the big fan of The Body Shop body scrubs that I am, I had them on my Christmas list for 2015 and ended up with two of these coconut ones. 


The scrub smells deliciously strong of coconut and seems more abrasive than some of the other body scrubs by The Body Shop. There are brown beads in it which contributes to the exfoliating and it did seem to be more rough than some of other ones I have tried, such as the mango one. However, this is not a bad thing. It isn't too abrasive- just a good balance! You can definitely tell it is doing the job and leaves a moisturising feel afterwards.


Overall I do like this scrub and I am thankful that I have another tub of this. Because of the size, I think it will last me quite a few months!

My Current Scrub #4



It's that time again!


My last post was back in April when I started the Mango Body Scrub (click here). Since then I did finish it a while ago. However, I also had a small sized version of the same scrub which I started afterwards but I didn't see the point in telling you guys about it when it was the same one! Anyway, I've just finished the small sized version and I'm on to a new one.


This is The Body Shop Chocomania Body Scrub. Yes, you've guessed it- it smells like chocolate! I don't like it as much as the Mango one but it is still the lovely texture as all The Body Shop body scrubs are and the smell of chocolate lingers on your skin. It looks like chocolate too which is a bonus! Almost good enough to eat.


As you can see this is only a small tub of it so I am sure it won't be too long until you see 'My Current Scrub #5'!

The Body Shop Body Scrubs

It is true that my favourite body scrubs (bar Rub, Rub, Rub from Lush) come from The Body Shop. The Body Shop are certainly experts when it comes to skincare and I always trust them to create great body scrubs.


I like to use body scrubs regularly to exfoliate. My favourite time to use them is in the shower before I shave, ensuring I get a smooth, close shave when any dead skin have been scrubbed away.


Here are the ones I currently have in my collection:




  • Mango Body Scrub- This is seriously my favourite right now. This is my second tub of this and I have not smelt anything better. It smells incredible, seriously! 

  • Chocomania Body Scrub- An oldie of mine but it definitely smells like chocolate. Perfect for those who want to rub chocolate all over their bodies (without eating it of course)

  • Cranberry Joy Body Polish- These body polishes are slightly different to the body scrubs but still do the same job. If you find body scrubs too harsh on your skin then these might be a better choice for you. This is a limited edition Christmas product but it smells delicious.

  • Vanilla Bliss Body Polish- I really like the vanilla shower gel so I'm sure I will like this one. I think this may also be a limited edition product, or was just discontinued, but it is worth keeping an eye out for over Christmas!

So that's it! Body scrubs will always be apart of my routine now so when I eventually finish these I will be sure to get more. Body scrubs usually make an appearance in my collection during Christmas or my birthday but for now I am sorted!


What's your favourite body scrub? Let me know!

Empties #5



  • The Body Shop Mango Sugar Body Scrub- This is one of my favourite body scrubs I have ever used. The smell is so incredibly amazing and it lasted be a good 4 months which is a plus! I always used it before shaving to exfoiliate my skin. To see my blog post on it, click here.

  • The Body Shop Vanilla Bliss Shower Gel- Another Body Shop goodie! This is a shower gel which I have finally finished up. I've been using it for months and months! It smells amazing and overall is a good shower gel.

  • Lush Ro's Argan Body Conditioner- This is an in-shower body butter but is like a hair conditioner for your skin. It doesn't last very long but it is great to use after shaving in the shower. Instead of chucking out this pot I will keep it as if you bring back 5 clean pots to Lush they give you a free face mask! To read my review on it, click here.

  • Boots Essentials Nail Polish Remover- There isn't much to say about this product. It is Boots' own brand of nail polish remover which I had been using for probably a year. It is good enough to remove normal nail polish and glitter but the acetone isn't strong enough to remove gel nail polish.


That's it for empties for now. What product have you emptied this month? Let me know!

LUSH | Rose Jam Shower Gel


Hey!

Sorry I haven't been around a while, I was really sick last week and on 26 tablets a day. I couldn't get the energy to get out of bed, let alone blog! My whole week was put on hold which was frustrating. 

Anyhow, today I bring you a review of Lush's Rose Jam shower gel which is a beautiful deep red in colour (just like a rose!) The shower gel claims to have a floral scent, gathered by the name, and has ingredients such as Turkish rose absolut, rose oil and geranium oil which are all flower related.

Now, I'm not usually a fan of floral scents but I don't mind this scent because it is not overpowering and instead is actually quite calming. It does smell floral but more in the sense of 'rose jam' that you can eat than actual flowers. It shares its scent with Ro's Argan Body Conditioner which I am actually currently using in the shower as well as this shower gel!
As for it working as a shower gel, it does the job by lathering well and leaving a subtle floral smell on your skin. 

You cannot buy Rose Jam separately. Instead, it is sold in the 'Rosie' gift set which, as you may be able to tell by the name, is full of floral scented products. I received this gift set for my birthday from my boyfriend a while back. 

Overall I like this shower gel. Which is good, because I've got another one of these stored away! I will continue to use this one and my other one afterwards and would consider buying the 'Rosie' gift set that it comes in for other people on special occasions. This may be something you'd consider your Mum to like or for a friend who is a fan of having lots of flowers in the house.

LUSH | Ro's Argan Body Conditioner

Hello!

Once again, I have a Lush product to review! After all the reviews I've done on this blog, you can probably tell by now that I am a fan of Lush haha.

Today I am reviewing Ro's Argan Body Conditioner which is like a hair conditioner, but for your skin! Crazy, right? I got this in a gift set from Lush which I'm pretty sure is a much smaller sample of the big tub of it that you can get in Lush. You can buy 225g worth for £16.50 so it isn't the cheapest of skin conditioners.

Anyway, what do you do with it? Well, as the name suggests, it a conditioner, like a hair conditioner, for your skin. It has the same feel and consistency as hair conditioner and feels the exact same when you apply it. You apply it on to wet skin, rub it in then wash it off. Finally, you pat dry the area. 

I've got to admit, I was intrigued. I always forget to apply moisturiser after having a bath or shower so to find out I can use this one in the shower I was excited. This product is full of butters and oils such as cocoa and shea butter to moisturise the skin and argan oil, which is thought to have anti-ageing properties. 

You can definitely tell the product has butters in it. For one, you can feel it when you smooth it in to your skin. Two, in a weird way, you can kind of smell the butter! 

What I like about this product is how quickly it rubs in to the skin. It doesn't linger on top of your skin but instead moisturises straight in. I like how quickly it makes moisturising and I particularly like to use it on my legs after I have shaved them. When I get out of the shower my skin then feels lovely and smooth- just what you want!

The only downside is that I feel you need to use quite a bit of the product to cover the area you want to moisturise. Because it sinks into your skin so quickly you can only spread the product over a small area of skin before it sinks in so then you have to go and get more. This isn't one of those products where a little goes a long way so I can see how it would be better to have a bigger pot of this conditioner.

Overall I like this product. I like the concept of it being a conditioner, it makes moisturising quick, it sinks in quickly and is great to use after shaving. My only fault is that you have to use a lot of the product at a time so it may not last very long. Plus I don't think I would buy it afterwards for what I see as a steep price for a conditioner!

Have you used this before? Let me know!

What's In My Shower?








Hey guys! 

I decided it might be interesting to show you guys what's in my shower. I have a lot more stuff in my shower than this but that's because I share a shower! However, this is all that I use. 

1. Tresemme Colour Vibrance  Protection Shampoo & Conditioner: I have always used Tresemme even as a little kid and I won't trust anything else with my hair. Tresemme makes my hair so shiny and healthy which people always compliment me on. I have red/purple dyed hair which is known for fading so I use this one to help keep my hair colour going which I love.

2. The Body Shop Vanilla Shower Gel: 9 times out of 10 I have a shower gel from The Body Shop in my shower. At the moment it is this vanilla one that I have been using for months and it's still going strong.

3. The Body Shop Mango Body Scrub: I love using body scrubs before I shave and at the moment I'm loving this one. It looks and smells so good! To read my review on it, click here

4. Lush Ro's Argan Body Conditioner: I am yet to use this but in shower body conditioners are always useful at saving time so you don't have to moisturise afterwards. Because it is from Lush however I have high hopes for it!
                                                                   
5. Boots Tea Tree & Witch Hazel  Exfoliating Face Scrub: I always use a face scrub in the shower when I was my hair. I love using scrubs to get rid of dead skin, especially ones with tea tree in for my acne prone skin.

And that's it! What do you use in the shower? Let me know!

My Current Scrub #3

Hello!

As always, I let you guys know what body scrub I am currently using.  After finishing my body scrub from Soap & Glory (click here to see my review) I have now started using the Mango body scrub from The Body Shop which I got for Christmas.

I adore it! I love the smell and what is even better is that the smell of mango lingers on your skin afterwards. It isn't too much of a rough feeling scrub which is nice and it feels nice to the touch. It does the job well and I even prefer it over my Soap & Glory scrub! The only downside is that I don't think it will last too long but fortunately enough I have another mango scrub to use.


Have you used this scrub? Let me know!

Empties #2


Hello! 

I finished a few products recently so I thought I would share them with you. This is only my second Empties post- to see my first one, click here!

  1. The Body Shop Tea Tree Face Wash- This is my holy grail face wash that I have gotten through numerous bottles of. I love this face wash as it works wonders for my acne prone skin and I've got plenty of back ups!
  2. Neutrogena Visibly Clear Grapefruit Moisturiser- Another holy grail product for me. I love this moisturiser as again, it does wonders for my acne prone skin. It also smells beautiful and doesn't take long to sink in so you don't have to wait ages to apply your make up. To read my review of it, click here.
  3. Carmex Lip Balm- I used to be so attached to this lip balm and wouldn't try anything else but now I have allowed myself to try some other lip balms. This is absolutely great for your lips and gets rid of chapped lips quickly. I have been through many of these and will probably buy another in the future. To read my review of it, click here.
  4. Soap & Glory The Scrub of Your Life Body Scrub- I always use this scrub in the shower before I shave and it works super well. I will use other body scrubs I have after this but if I ran out of body scrubs I wouldn't hesitate to repurchase this. I have been using this since August so it has lasted quite a long time! To read my review of it, click here.

What products have you finished so far this year? Let me know!

Lush | Snow Fairy Shower Gel Review

source: https://www.lush.co.uk/products/shower-gels-jellies/snow-fairy

Hello!

Snow Fairy shower gel is one of the most famous Lush products without a doubt. However, the downfall is- it only comes out at Christmas! I received Snow Fairy last Christmas from my Dad after I was so eager for it but I forgot to take a photo of it! What a huge blogging mistake. So here you'll just have to put up with the photos that I have taken from Lush's website.

As most people who have tried this shower gel: I love it. The colour is a pretty pink and the name is perfect for it. As for the smell: it smells great! If you've used the Bubblegum Lip Scrub (an essential of mine) it smells exactly like that. But for those who don't know what that smells like it is basically like sweet candy and bubblegum.

You can buy Snow Fairy in 3 different sizes: £3.75 for 100g, £7.50 for 250g and £11.95 for 500g. I had the biggest size and let me tell you- it lasted for ages! I started using it after Christmas Day and it lasted me until May. 

As Snow Fairy is so popular, hurry to get it! Also, if you really like it then stock up because like I said: it only comes out at Christmas.

I for one absolutely adore this shower gel and I have never been so excited over a shower gel in my life. I 100% would recommend it and I would also certainly recommend it as a gift for a friend.

Have you used Snow Fairy? What do you think? Let me know!

Lush Wishlist Part 2: Christmas!

Hello!

The best products from Lush always come out at Christmas so even though it is a bit too early to get excited for Christmas I couldn't help but check out the products!

1) Drummers Drumming Bubble Bar- This is an awesome looking bubble bar that looks like a drum. You can even shake it to play the bells against the drum! It also lasts quite a few baths which is always a bonus.

2) The Melting Snowman Bath Melt- This bath melt has almond oil and cocoa butter in it so it seems it will make the bath really moisturising for the skin. Plus, how can you resist that little face? 

3) Luxury Lush Pud Bath Bomb- This looks amazing. It was on my Christmas list last year but sadly I never got it so I am determined to get it this year! It looks like loads of fun and my favourite types of bath bombs are the ones that put on a show.

4) Snow Fairy Shower Gel- The Christmas classic. I got this last year and I absolutely loved it. It has a sweet bubblegum smell and definitely is one to try out.

5) Snowcake Soap- I received this soap as a gift two years ago after my friend told me it was great for sensitive skin which is what I have. It was extremely nourishing for my skin and stopped my hands getting super dry and skin broken in the cold!

6) Golden Wonder Bath Bomb- Another bath bomb that looks like absolute fun. It is big too so it would definitely be luxurious!

7) Dashing Santa Bath Bomb- This is just too cute to resist! It would definitely be perfect for Christmas Eve. 

8) The Christmas Hedgehog Bubble Bar- The only thing cuter than the Dashing Santa bath bomb. We have been getting lots of hedgehogs in our garden this year so it seems fitting that I have an adorable little friend for myself.

So there you have it! If I try any of these I will be sure to review it for you guys!
What do you want from the Christmas range? Let me know!
