Hi Hunnis!

I love baths but a normal (no bubbles or bomb) bath is something that I just cant stand.  If I am having a bath I want it to be relaxing, exciting and an overall lovely experience.  I spice up my baths with bubbles, melts and bath bombs most recently I have been trying out all the different bath time products Lush have to offer and will be sharing them with you over the coming weeks.

Space Girl Bath Ballistic

available here £2.10 each

Space Girl is shaped as you can see above like a planet, this was created after Simon Emmerson's (from The Imagined Village and lush music maker) daughter was listening to his latest offering and there was a track called Space Girl she thought it would be great to have a Lush product to match the song and at Lush they thought this would be a great idea and so Space Girl was born.

This is a sweet scented Bath Ballistic which turns the water purple with swirls of red and gold glitter while the scent  retro sweet parma violets fills the room.  Space Girl also has a hidden treat so once you have run your bath pop your ballistic in the water and plunge your head underwater to hear the 'space dust' snap crackle and pop, space dust is known also as popping candy.

This ballistic's special ingredient, grapefruit oil is useful for more than fighting cellulite it  lifts your mood and revives the mind  whilst clearing up congested skin and acne.  It is also great when you have cold, flu or headaches, lack of energy and tiredness.  With almond oil and bergamot oil which are both really good moisturising ingredients this will leave you with super soft skin.

So aswell as it looking really pretty in the water and smelling amazing it is also good for the body and mind.

Have you tried this yet?

Good Evening lovlies!

I have just got home from my first ever shift at Lush, and wowie was it the bestest four hours ever.  At first I was really nervous but as soon as I was on the shop floor I was fine, I felt completely comfortable and like I was meant to be there.  Every single member of staff were so helpful and friendly it made me feel so welcome and part of the team.  I learned loads about the different products and love that I will be learning more and more every single day because there is no way I could learn it all in a day.  

I love that I have discovered and love so many products I didn't know a lot about before and hopefully my excitement and enthusiasm shines through to the customers because I am genuinely thrilled to be working there.  From discovering all of these new fantastic products look out for lots of Lush reviews.

I am most excited to learn more about the cosmetics range Emotional Brilliance, from what I have seen today   the whole range is fantastic and I have really enjoyed wearing 'decisive' as a lip colour today.  I will be going to an event tomorrow in Redditch to learn more about this range and meet the amazing Karla Powell, Make Up Artist, so expect a post in the near future about that.

I was so lucky to be given a few products today to try out, so I can tell the customers what they are really like and use my personal experience as guidance. 

I choose Ultrabland Cleanser, Love Lettuce Face Mask, Twilight Bath Ballistic, Buffy Body Butter, Its Raining Men Shower Gel and Imperialis Moisturiser.  I was also given Honey I washed the Kids Soap and The Easter Egg Hunt Soap.  I aim to switch all my skincare over to Lush products over the next couple of months so i'm excited to try out the cleanser and moisturiser the most.

Tonight I will be enjoying a bath with twilight to unwind and relax ready for my extra busy weekend.

Hope you all have a lovely evening whatever you may be doing 

Lots of Love

Miss Patisserie was a brand I had never came across before, until I attended the Clothes Show Live in Birmingham. Read my post about the Clothes Show here.  Their Stand just completely stood out from all the surroundng stands and before I knew it I was in cupcake heaven - bathtime cupcake heaven.  These lovely little bakes just looked good enough to eat and smelled devine.

"The fragrances will let your mind take you to places you've remembered, whether it be walking through a lemon grove, biting into a big ball of candy floss or taking out a freshly baked plum pie from the oven."

Miss Patisserie was created by the lovely Charlotte Ridgwell, with her love of beauty and bath products, beautiful illustration, patisseries and pugs and some experimenting in her kitchen at home in Cardiff,  the bath bakes Miss Patisserie are famous for were born. Charlotte started selling her creations at local craft fayres and in a few local shops.  They are now stocked in over 150 stores in the UK including Harrods and also Europe and Australia.  All this has happened in only three years and have introduced a number of new products including cake slices, macaroons, mini bath bakes and lollies.  It is one of the lollies I will be reviewing in this post.

Miss Mango Ice Lolly Bath Fizzie

£2.99 Buy yours here on the official website

As you will see in the picture above the lolly is presented in a clear plastic wrapping with a branded bow to seal the product and keep all the delicious scents under wraps until you are ready to use it. I love that this looks just like a lolly you would eat and appropriatly mounted on a lolly stick. 

Miss Mango with its white and pink 'lolly' covered in glitter topped with the delicate blue flower is every girls perfect bath accessory.  The glitter really sparkles and this made me fall in love before I had even used it.

At the Miss Patisserie kitchens everything is handmade, the mixing, icing, pressing and packaging are all done by the Miss Patisserie chefs to ensure we recieve the highest quality finished product.  All of the fragrances and natural ingredients such nourishing cocoa butter and epsom salts are added due to the amazing benefits on the skin and body.

As you will see on the website and some of the packaging of the products pug dogs are everywhere (which I adore because they are my favourite dog), this to me shows Miss Patisserie's love of animals.  Her love of animals is proved through the products as none of the ingredients or the products themselves are ever tested on animals.



 After running my bath I swirled my lolly around my bath, this was made very easy as the lolly stick is long enough to hold at the bottom,  releasing the beautiful fruity fragrance and nourishing oils.  As soon as the lolly was in the water the scent of mangos, ripe peaches filled the air leaving a  lingering base of clean musk to aid to the relaxation of my bath.  As the lolly disolved into my bath water the glitter sparkled in the light making my bath fit for a princess, in my mind every girl is a princess!
During my bath I could feel the difference in my skin and it was softer than ever before and felt moisturised.
I was enjoying my indulgent bath so much I really didn't want to get out but I had to before I turned wrinkly.  I was concerned that all the lovely glitter would stick to my skin and my whole body would be sparkling, it was visable on my skin but only very slightly, I luckily didn't look like an extra in twilight.  The most astonishing thing was the softness of my skin, it felt so nourished and smelt fabulous.

I  enjoyed my Miss Patisserie Miss Mango Ice Lolly so much and would love to try the other flavours including Pom Pom and La La Lime, you can view them here.  Be sure to expect lots more reviews of Miss Patisserie treats on Button's Blog.
