Easter!!


The lush Easter bath bombs are so so good and smell gorgeous, I just wanted to eat them! The Fluffy Egg one smells just like snow fairy and the smell lingers on your skin which is always a bonus with something that good. It also turns your bath pink! 


The bunny bubble bar was just as sweet, it smelt like candy and made hundreds of bubbles! It's also very cute! 

Also, our friend threw a Hawaiian themed party since the weather has been so nice. It was such a funny and an amazing night, so here's some hilarious pictures! 







It was so great to see all of our good friends and also an excuse to get extremeeeeely drunk, whilst wearing the most cheesiest Hawaiian shirts ever! Haha :)

Hope you enjoyed,

Lush Review!

Having tried out many of lush cosmetics products, we've decided to make a little review of some of our favourites!


One of the first products I ever used was the Herbalism face wash, I loved it cause it really helped my skin which could get quite oily, and would suggest it to anybody who suffered from oily skin too as it is a good way to help clear it up. The only downside I would say it getting used to the ratio of how much water to use with it, but after a few times you get the hang of it!

The Big Sea Salt Shampoo is absolutely amazing, it smells gorgeous and makes you feel as though you're a mermaid. It helps give your hair a bit of volume and life to it, the only thing I would suggest is to make sure your hair isn't too knotty before using it, as the pieces of sea salt can get stuck in your hair!

The Karma perfume is amazing for lovers of oranges as it smells just like them and is a very strong smell that stays on all day. I found after using it that it can stain white clothes, and would advise using it on  your wrists only unless you are wearing dark clothes.

The bubblegum lip scrub is a must for everyone, it keeps your lips smooth and is even more effective when used with a lip balm straight after, or to help get rid of dry skin on your lips before using a matte lipstick. It also tastes amazing!


Ocean salt is by far the best face scrub I have tried, I'd advise being quite gentle with it on your skin because of the salt in it, but it leaves your skin so so smooth. After clearing up my skin using Herbalism I decided to try out other face scrubs and this is the first one I changed to, I would recommend it to everybody, except those who have extremely dry skin as I imagine it may make your skin slightly worse because it can be slightly harsh if not used gently.


Let the good times roll is probably the best smelling face scrub they do, it smells just like popcorn and its so good I wanted to eat it! Its a good exfoliant but you can also feel that is slightly moisturises your skin at the same time, its not as harsh as ocean salt or even herbalism and would be good for those with dry/sensitive skin.

The Big Blue bath bomb leaves your skin really soft and has bits of seaweed it, teamed with the sea salt shampoo, and ocean salt face scrub, it can make you feel as though you've transported to the sea side and are swimming with the mermaids!

The sugar scrub is so so good for the small price of £2.95 for 100g, which is cheap compared to most of their stuff. It is such a good exfoliant and smooths your skin, getting rid of any dryness.


The tea tree water is really good if you're looking for something simple and quick to refresh your face whilst also cleansing it at the same time. It really helps if you have a few spots, or if your skin is quite oily and after using it daily, I definitely noticed a difference in the look and feel of my face after a few weeks! It's so refreshing as well, so I really recommend this if you are a bit too lazy or busy to go through a long face wash routine every day and night.

The "Vanillary" Gorilla Perfume, just like the "Karma" one, smells lovely! I did think it would smell like more of a sweet vanilla scent, so when I smelt it, it wasn't actually what I expected. However, it smells just as gorgeous, especially if you are into your vanilla flavoured/scented things! I use it on my neck and wrists, and I can smell it right through to when I go to bed! It is SO long lasting, which I love! Even if Vanilla isn't your style, I definitely recommend one of these Gorilla Perfumes.

Hope this helped some of you, and hope you enjoyed.

Custard Factory

So today, since we have a week off college, we took yet another trip to Birmingham! We walked down to The Custard Factory in Digbeth as we hadn't been there for ages, and we forgot about all the interesting things that were there. We managed to find some really pretty places to take outfit of the day photos at. Follow our Instagrams if you'd like to see more updates of our day to day life!




Enjoy the photos!
