Daily dose of Lush...Shine So Bright

Aloha Amigos!
Ok so this is a product that is perfect for people like me who mistreat their hair! I treated mine so badly due to straightening and bleaching that I've recently had to chop it all off into a pixie cut... however! This can be prevented with one little Lush Balm...

Shine So Bright is a hair balm to help treat split ends. Nothing is going to be able to get rid of split ends, apart from a few inches taken off the bottom with a pair of scissors, but you can minimise the damage and prevent any more from occurring by rubbing a small amount of this balm into the ends of your hair using your fingers.

Made with coconut oil, olive oil and shea butter it adds moisture to your hair and also doubles as a hair perfume too! Neroli oil, rosewood and grapefruit oils leave the hair with a fruity floral fragrance.

Not only do I used this for my split ends but I love using it on my fly aways! Now I have short hair there seems to be quite a few so I use this balm to calm them down and hold them in place and it works wonders!

When I recommend this product I always get asked if it makes your hair appear greasy, but because you're only using it on the ends of your hair (or for fly aways) it's never as issue. The ends of your hair are always the driest area so a little balm is going to help moisturise it and make it look beautiful!

 

Has anyone ever tried it?

Daily dose of Lush...Movis Soap!

Hello! Another new product today - Movis :D
This has very quickly made it's way into my daily skincare routine. I love it!

Created by Mo Constantine and inspired by two of her passions - soap and baking! - Mo Constantine made this wheat filled face soap. I will admit, at first I was definitely put off by the idea of bread being in my soap but my mind quickly changed when I started using it.

Made with wholemeal bread to exfoliate and revive the skin, and wheatgerm oil, hop oil and cocoa butter to soften the skin.

There's two ways you could use it, you can play with it in your hands using water to create a creamy lather or for a good scrub, wet your skin and use the bar directly.

Apart from how soft and moisturised my skin feels after I use it, I love that it's squidgy! I can't describe what it feels like... it's a bit like the sponge layer in a trifle?! It also smells like a cheesecake biscuit base and reminds people of banana bread, soo yummy! haha

What better then a little present with your name on it? Perfect!

 

My winning combination at the moment is using Ocean Salt for a good scrub and using Movis afterwards to give a nice layer of moisture to my skin.

 

Anyone had a chance to try it out yet?

Daily dose of Lush...Parsley Porridge Soap

Hello guys,
I hope you're enjoying my Daily dose of Lush and not getting bored of it! I've got another new product to talk about today - Parsley Porridge Soap!

When this post goes out there will be 3 new soaps in Lush stores - Parsley Porridge, Mangnificent and Movis! Posts to follow on both of these, but exciting newbies! Wohoo! There will also be 2 more soaps coming out within the next few months... ooohhhhhh

Parsley Porridge is an antibacterial herbal soap packed full of lovely ingredients such as parsley, thyme, tea tree oil and aloe gel to help cool and sooth the skin with an added extra of fine oatmeal to gently exfoliate.

Because of it's antibacterial properties, I'd call this a 'Kitchen Soap' but it would also be perfect for those who have spent too long in the sunshine and have a sore bit of sunburn or those who suffer with spotty skin problems. The aloe gel and tea tree and going to be lovely and calming for your skin and keep it nice and clean at the same time!

At first I really wasn't a huge fan of the scent but it's definitely growing on me. Personally I would still only use it for washing my hands when in the kitchen but I really love the antibacterial, antiseptic and soothing properties of this soap so it's definitely going to be one I keep stocked up on over summer! (Just in case of burnt shoulders and noses!)

 

Have you guys tried this soap yet?

Daily dose of Lush... Granny Takes a Dip

Hellooo!
Ok this one I am really excited about! Granny Takes a Dip is my current favourite bath bomb, and I haven't even used it yet! Now that's saying something...

The swirly, mesmerising goodness of this bath bomb is enough to make you want to take it home. Let alone, the (somehow chocolately) uplifting and spicy scent it creates and the deep pomegranate colour it turns the bath water! This bath ballistic will have you in the bath so long you'll come out looking like a wrinkly granny!

Here's a demo in photos!

Aren't the colours gorgeous! I didn't manage to get a photo of the colour of the water but I'll stick one up soon! It goes the very deep purple you can see coming off the bottom right of the green centre - absolutely amazing!

 

Granny is a ginger, pepper and lemon scented bath ballistic which sounds like an unusual choice but don't knock it till you've tried it! To me it smells almost chocolatey, to others it reminds them of Candy Sticks or Fizzy Cola Cubes! Whatever it reminds you of, it smells lovely either way :)

 

A perfect bath ballistic for a rainy day...

What do you guys think, have you tried it yet?
