FOTD: Baby Its Cold Outside

Hey Lovelies!

Its officially two more sleeps until Christmas, eeee! I'm a tad bit excited if you can't already tell. I had a bit of a pamper day Saturday and decided to try out quite a few of the new goodies i picked up lately. And after battling with my camera trying desperately to capture the AMAZING Lit glitter i used, this was the best shot i could get, it does not do it even nearly enough justice. I also gave my Dinair airbrush system another bash, its definitely not perfect but i was pretty happy with the end results. Its really easy to go from not being able to see it to BAM too much, I'll get the hang of it eventually. I plan to do a full review on most of the new products used in this soon and hopefully *fingers crossed* be able to get a decent picture of the glitter, it is absolutely STUNNING.

Eyes:
MUA - Eye Primer
MAC - Vanilla, Omega and Phloof! Eyeshadows
Lit - Clearly Liquid Glitter Base
Lit - Champagne Wishes Glitter
Elf - Black Liquid Eyeliner
Makeup Forever - Smoky Lash Mascara
Anastasia - Brow Powder Duo

Lips:
YSL - Rouge Pur Couture The Mats Lipstick in 203
(I may actually be in love with this lipstick)

Face:
Darling Girl - About Face Velvet Gel Primer
Dinair - Airbrush Foundation
Laura Mercier - Secret Brightening Powder
Mac - Sculpting Powder in Sculpt
Mac – Lightscapade
The Balm - Frat Boy Blush  

(around 50 shots of my eye and this is the best i could get... boo!)

I've found three new products that I've fallen head over heals for; The YSL lipstick, Lit Glitters (need moar now) and my Dinair system. So needless to say i am one happy blogger right now.

Have you tried any of these products?

Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!

LUSH Christmas Goodies!

Hey lovelies!

As soon as a heard the Christmas stuff had arrived at LUSH i basically raced to my nearest store. I'm not a big LUSH nut, but i do love me their Christmas goodies! Candy Mountain (or Candy Cane as it was previously known as) is my all time favourite product from them. I get through quite a few, without fail every year. And this year is no exception! They change its appearance every year so this year instead of being the traditional pink and white its a crazy Willy Wonka style pink and green, i love it! Oh and you may notice theres no Snow Fairy... Well I'm holding out for one for Christmas!

Candy Mountain - Bubble Bath Bar 

Sweet smelling, pink and green goodness. Its the typical lush scent, somewhere between Snow Fairy and Rock Star Soap. I get a good three baths out of these so they are WELL worth the money.

Let The Good Times Roll -  Facial Cleanser

I've not seen this one before so i assume its new this year. After smelling the salty, caramel goodness i knew i had to have it. Although if i was LUSH i wouldn't of marketed this as a cleanser. Its basically an exfoliating scrub. I'm guessing its the popcorn in it, but it makes a really lovely daily scrub without leaving your skin dry. I'm really impressed!

Melting Snowman - Bath Melt

I've not tried a bath melt before and this one was far too cute to pass up!

     Breath of Fresh Air - Toner Water

I used to use this product years ago and really enjoyed it. But pinching pennies i went back to my Simple Toner as it is less than half the price. But as you can see i got a bit carried away and picked it up again. Its such a refreshing toner with fresh sea water and a whole host of essential oils. I'm starting to see why i loved it so much!

Popcorn - Lip Scrub

My Bubblegum Lip Scrub is on its last legs and the scent of this intrigued me. I'm not sure i like the taste though, I'm undecided! Will do a full review of this soon!

So that's it! You can find these at your nearest LUSH store or online here.

Whats your favourite LUSH product?

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas... Mini Lush haul!

Although it's still November Christmas is just a month away so i thought I'd share some of my favourite things! Some people say that Christmas time arrives when the Coca Cola advert arrives on our TVs, but i get excited when i get my hands on these goodies.

 

Snow Fairy Shower Gel - Candy Mountain Bubble Bath Bar

My Christmas trips to Lush are a little predictable, every year i buy the two same things. Snow Fairy is possibly my favourite shower gel of all time, the only reason i have the teeny weeny bottle is that I'm bound to get a massive one for Christmas! In my opinion its the best fragrance Lush do and I'm a little miffed i missed the solid perfume they released a year or two ago! Bubble Gum Lip Scrub is like the edible version of it, yum! 

Candy Mountain (formally Candy Cane!) again is my all time favourite bubble bath bar. Writing this I'm actually a little sad as I've already used this baby up and shall be going to grab a few more shortly! 

If you've never tried these Lush products, go check them out!

You can buy these in your local store or online here! 

And if sweetie scented bath goodies aren't your thing, they have a whole host of Christmassy products to choose from!
