Reviews: Lush skincare products! ♡

The skincare junkie I am, I just had to try some skincare products from the amazing company Lush! Like many others I have been a big proud fan of Lush and normally I always wonder towards the fun looking bath bombs or bubble bars but recently I had a good look through the skincare and now I have three products that I am just loving. So here is my review on 3 lush skincare products! 

Firstly I love this scent! It's an intense peppermint/Minty scent and I absolutely love how intense it smells. This has marigold oil and Chlorophyllin to treat the skin, Honey for antiseptic and moisturise, Edukie beans and primrose seeds to gently exfoliate and peppermint oil to stimulate and a bunch of other good for your skin ingredients. This mask is not only a mask but a scrub as well, So when you're ready to wash it off, you gently scrub using circular movements and it's not harsh/abrasive. You can also put this mask in the fridge to intensify it but that is optional. This mask is fantastic for any dark spots, blemishes, acne, oiliness and to make the skin more awakened! When the mask is on I can feel a cooling and stimulating feeling as if its pulling out every speck of dirt, oil, bacteria, junk and bad toxins and the smell of the mint is so intense it's heaven! Afterwards my skin feels like I have just done a good clean out, taking out every nasty junk. My skin looks brighter, clean, clear and feeling smooth and not dried out! This mask has never completely taken away spots but it has reduced redness, inflammation, size and dried up some spots. I use this mask when my skin is freaking out, need's some calming down and to pull everything out and start fresh. I recommend it, but more towards the oily/acne prone skin types!




This is such a calm, soothing, gentle toner. It is a spray bottle so you can spray it directly onto your face or on a cotton pad. It is suitable for the most sensitive skin/any skin type. It hydrates, refreshes and sooths the skin. It's very moisturizing and has rose oil which nourishes, cools and calms the skin and lavender oil which helps your skin produce the right amount of sebum oil, and soften the skin! This is a gentle, mild and soothing toner. It has the most calming, luxurious, spa, aromatherapy scent which I love for the night time! When I use this toner my skin feels moisturized, soft, hydrated and I feel luxurious and calm. 


This is a fabulous exfoliate. I use this about 3 times a week and my skin has never felt better when I use it. The scent is sea salt but not overpowering or even that strong. The colour of this is bright blue, it looks so pretty! This is great for all skin types. It has sea salt which is amazing for acne and to cleanse and tone. Seaweed, coconut oil and organic lime and Avocado butter to moisturize, soften and refresh so it will also be great for dry skin. It helps with blocked pores, blackheads and blemishes, and removing dead skin, dirt and leaves the skin brighter, softer and fresh. For a more intense scrub you can apply to dry skin and use circular movements or for a gentle scrub use on damp skin. My skin feels amazing when I have used this. I feel like it has took anything that was causing breakouts, blockages, and any oiliness. It does not dry my skin out at all, it puts natural oils into my skin and leaves my skin conditioned, hydrated and super soft. It has been brightening up my skin which I love. This can also be used on your chest, back, arms and legs. I recommend it for everybody with any skin type. 

Let’s talk about: Oily skin & beauty oils!♡

Beauty Oils are one of the best skincare products everybody should have! Everybody any age and any skin type can use them. Sensitive, dry, combination, oily. Yes oily folks can use oil on their face *gasp* Most people who have oily skin start stripping away the oil, giving the skin no moisture at all. Our bodies respond to what we do to it, so your skin will freak out and start over producing natural oils this causes your skin to be over oily and acne prone. What you need to be doing is every morning and night, gently cleanse the skin with a cleanser that will not clog pores and put back oils into the skin. You don’t need to be exfoliating every time you see oil on your skin. You only need to be exfoliating 3 times a week, even if you use a cleanser with enzymes that will naturally and gently exfoliate. You also don’t need to be using a face mask every time you see oil on your skin. I use a mask once or twice a week so strip everything and start over and then I make sure I put the oil back into my skin by moisturizing.  You need to be using a moisturizer/moisturizing oil every morning and night. Always moisturize because Oil combats Oil. So you need to give your skin oil, to convince it to not over produce.

If you’re suffering from any white head spots the most important thing is to not POP them! Please do not pop them because this will cause the skin to break causing redness, bleeding, inflammation and scabs plus you’re spreading that nasty bacteria and pushing it further down into the skin. What you need to do is take an ice cube and wrap it up in a paper towel. Press the ice cube onto the spot for about 5 minutes, the cold will help fight the bacteria. Then you need to cleanse the area and gently exfoliate. Next take a Muslim cloth or flannel, soak it in hot water, wrap it around your finger and press it onto the spot for about 30 seconds. The heat from the flannel will soften the spot and soothe the area. Push and wipe the spot and the majority of the time the spot wipes away. Then moisturize with something that will fight spots or a spot treatment gel. So if you’re about to pop your spot, Stop and try these steps!

The first beauty oil I use and love is TheKiehl’s midnight recovery concentrate. This is an overnight elixir; you apply 2-3 drops at night and press it into your skin. This is filled with good-for-your-skin ingredients like Omega 6 fatty acids, Evening Primrose oil and essential oils including Lavender. This is going to work overnight to recover and replenish your skin with moisture. It’s very lightweight, so it’s not greasy or heavy. I use this on the nights when I want to feel relaxed and pampered. It has an aromatherapy scent to it because of the essential oils and lavender and it has that aromatherapy effect. It feels moisturizing, my skin loves it. I notice after a few times using it my skin clears up. It calms and soothes my skin leaving it clear, moisturized, hydrated, treated and a little glow and makes me feel relaxed and pampered. 



I also love using The Ora Naturals 100%Pure Argan Oil. This is all natural and organic so it’s great for your skin and will not clog pores. You can use this on your whole body, hair, nails, face. This is on the heavier side but not to heavy so you do not feel like a grease chicken but it is a thicker oil that will absorb a little longer. You can apply this morning and night. If you apply it in the morning I suggest you apply a thin layer and wait at least 30 minutes before applying any make-up. I like to apply it at night about 2 hours before I put my head on the pillow and I apply a good layer of it and just allow it to soak into my skin. It feels amazing. So moisturizing and I can feel my skin is getting a good hydration. I notice how my skin feels so hydrated and looks healthy when I wake up. It truly is a great oil and leaves my skin so soft and amazing. 







The last beauty oil I am going to talk about is The Balm Balm little miracle rosehip serum. This is 100% natural and organic. You can use this with your moisturizer or alone, morning and night. This is great for anybody but really good for mature ladies. It’s good for texture, wrinkles and fine lines and radiance and moisturizers the skin. This smells so good; a lovely girly rose scent which is not overpowering or irritable. This is a thick oil but not too thick or to greasy because I am dry and oily I don’t like any heavy thick oils so I go for more lightweight ones. If you apply a thin layer for me it takes about 5 minutes to absorb if I apply more of a thick layer about 20 minutes. This oil has improved the texture of my skin and it looks healthy. I wake up with hydrated skin and I don’t produce as much oil or break outs.

Laura Mercier Ambre Vanillé Souffle Body Cream Review. ♡

I thought I would do a review on a body cream. This type of review is one I have never done on my blog before which really surprises me since I use body lotions/creams/butters all the time! So Today I am going to tell you my thoughts/opinions on the Laura Mercier Ambre Vanille Souffle Body Cream. I hope you enjoy reading :D!


To be honest I did not like this scent at first! I thought it smelt way to sweet and of pure yogurt and when I applied it to my skin, it smelt so sickly and it did not smell right on me. I did not use it until a few weeks ago I decided to try it on my skin again just to see what I thought and... I am in love! This smells so amazing on my skin now. I don't smell that yogurt scent anymore, I think I was smelling that at first because it has a very sweet almond scent, but I don't smell yogurt and I have fell in love with this body cream now. I feel it smells of sweet vanilla, very warm but girly.  The notes are Tangerine, coconut, almond, honey, vanilla, grape seed and sandalwood. ( yum )

The consistency is very whipped, super soft and luxurious. This sinks right into my skin which I love because for the most time I apply body creams before I go to sleep, so I need something that will quickly sink into my skin. It feels very silky but not greasy or sticky. Its thick so a little bit goes a long way and the scent lasts a long time, I can still smell it on my skin when I wake up and half way through the next day! This soufflé has vitamin A,C and E for the best nourishment and good for your skin cream!


I am very glad I have come back to this body cream and gave it another go because I love it so much now! The scent is heavenly and the cream is luxurious and very hydrating to my skin. I sometimes like to apply this cream after I have come out of the bath/shower when my skin is slightly damp. It locks in the moisture even more. I recommend it to anyone who likes vanilla, sweet scents!
