Review- Ceridwen'sCauldrom luxury Bath Melt
I have recently taken up swimming Ive been 3 times this week ( trooper :P ) , and it had taken its tole on my skin , my back had become very itchy , red and irritated and dry . So obviously a lush bath was needed at the end of a week of swimming in a pool full of nasty chlorine. So i took a rummage in my lush box and grabbed my Ceridwens Cauldron , only because i had done allot of research about this product and seemed perfect .
First impressions , love love love how natural it looks all its goodness wrapped up in a little muslin pouch , it contains wild flowers which i am sure all of would of herd of , elderflower , cowslip and daisy flowers, and you can see these floating around the pouch which is so lovely and it feels so right for your skin . The smell for me seemed to be over powered by lavender , and I'm not a fan of lavender but when it started to melt i didn't get lavender , i got a lovely scent of frankincense and elderflower and the lavender was just there in the back ground which was so relaxing .
This bath melt feels allot more luxurious than the other bath melts i have tried , considering you can see pretty much all the ingredients , which include whole oats , and when you squeeze the bag after all the cocoa butter has melted away it creates a lovely moisturising stream of oat milk that you can rub all over your body , which cools and calms the skin. After my bath my skin was lightly scented and very moisturised , and i can say for the first time in a very long time that is really was the perfect bath , don't think i need to say my overall opinion :P .

Review And How To - Buffy Body Butter
I would like to start my saying i now know what all the hype is about . This has really changed my shower routine , and oh my is it good . Love how organic and healthy Buffy looks , its super exfoliating without being to harsh on your skin , ground rice , ground almonds and ground aduki beans create and exfoliating bit and of course the all important cocoa butter and Shea butter make the moisturising bit , ensuring your skin is left silky smooth .
Ive used this a few times and already noticing a difference i use it on the top of my arms , my thighs aaaaaaand my butt , and in all areas Ive noticed that the skin is smoother and softer mostly on my arms as i get lots of little red bumps at the tops of my arms . The only thing i don't like is the smell , the smell for me was a bit iffy but i was only using it on some of my body so was OK with it .
How to :
Buffy really is very easy to use , when your in the shower grab your Buffy bar and in circular motions scrub scrub scrub . Scrub in all the places where you are cellulite prone , and where your skin is most dry , i use it just before i get out the shower , Buffy is also great to use before shaving your legs . :)
( just a little apology about the valentines posts i was so busy over valentines , shocking !! that i didn't have time to finish the series so i just deleted it ....kinda regret it but anyhoo sooorrry )

Review - The Comforter Bubble Bar
Yet another Ribenascented product from lush ( yaay!) The Comforter for me was brought only because i had herd so many good things about it , and it was so worth it . When u step into a comforter bath it is ...well as u would expect comforting but so so so Comforting , i used this before i went to bed just to calm myself and help me relax , i was so relaxed after i found it a little hard to walk to my bed , as all my muscles had gone 2 sleep . The scent is very much like Sweetie Pie Shower Jelly , which was a win for me because i love the smell of it , but also wasn't as over powering and it was just subtle , and this also filled my bath room as well .
after almost falling asleep i checked how it was on my skin , my skin was very soft and felt moisturised which was great and didn't feel itchy afterwards at all so its good for sensitive skin . The scent that Comforter and Sweetie pie is so famouse for come from cassis ( posh word for black currants ) absolute which is so so so good . I felt like i was being hugged all over and was very very relaxed , and went along perfectly with my book , the hobbit :) lastly , the Comforter his twice the size of Normal bubble bars and therefor you can get lots more baths out of it , i managed to cut mine into 6 pieces and one of those was enough for a very good bath , so the comforter last for a while and you will defiantly get your moneys worth.
i would like to finish this post by saying the hobbit is a very good book , read it !! , and the comforter is an amazing product from lush so try it out .

Review-Rose Jam Bubbleroon
I'm not a massive fan of things that contain rose , so i wasn't overly excited about trying it , but i didn't knock it until i tried it , the scent of the Bubbleroon was quite strong and i wasn't too keen on this either , but since i am a big fan on the Yuzu And Cocoa Bubbleroon i figured i would try another , but smelling it more it reminds me more of the sweet Palmer violets which i love .
Rose jam bubbleroon contains lemon to make you alert and rose to lift your spirits hiiiiiiiiiiiiigh !! This Bubbleroon certainly did the job i felt uplifted and ready to go , with lovely soft and moisturised skin from the cocoa nut oil and Shea butter , the bath was also full of lots of lovely creamy bubbles and my bath was a very pleasant pale pink , but i did notice there wasn't as many bubbles as the Yuzu and cocoa Bubbleroon maybe i just picked up a bad one ?
Even after having a soak for a little while i was still wondering where the scent had gone , i could only detect a very faint smell of rose , which i was a little confused about considering it smelled quite strong of roses and Palmer violets , but over all i was well moisturised and enjoyed my new Bubbleroon but i don't think i will be repurchasing since I'm not a big fan of roses but scent was OK .

Review-The Godmother Soap
The Godmother soap might not look very impressive, but it is . Godmother shares the same fragrance as lushs Snow Fairy shower gel , and i know how popular that was , and how amazing it smelt. Cocoa nut oil and Rapeseed oil both together create a sweet and almost fruity scent that stays on your skin after you wash with it ( ooh yeeeaah!!) , also The Godmother soap smells very similar to Rock star soap but i think the scent is more intense and fruitier.
love lush manufacturing vids
I don't really have that much too say about this soap other than that it is a very nice colour ,the same colour of my dressing gown in fact , and i love the leaf design on top . Only one down fall to this soap is that it melts away quicker than any other lush soaps I've tried which was a little disappointing , so hopefully lush will improve on that one day , but in the mean time will be stocking up on this soap very soon :)

Review - Butterball Bath Bomb
The Butterball may be small but it certainly gives a punch, a big punch of moister. What first attracted me to the butter ball was the fact it has chunks of cocoa butter and you can see it before you put in the bath , and loved the thought of lots and lots of cocoa butter.Also the scent ,filling my nose with vanilla and musk , just lovely.
When i plopped the little ball in my bath i wasn't very convinced i would enjoy it because the ball was happily spinning in my bath and releasing lots of little brown flecks , not very pretty.but i persevered and discovered they where in fact the little bits of cocoa butter that had melted and settled on the top , it was like the butter had created a skin on top of the water .
The bath room was filled with the scent of vanilla and musk which i loved , and made my skin super super soft , if anything a little greasy afterwards but after my skin absorbed all the cocoa butter, the grease was gone,also the scent stayed on my skin pretty much all day afterwards ,which i was super happy about . The cocoa butter and ylag ylang oil create a very special treat for your skin , the butter ball is great if your skin has been abused by the sun or if you suffer from very dry skin . Over all i will defiantly be repurchasing and treat my skin to a butter ball .
