Review: Lush Twilight Bath Bomb

Hey

Hope you've all had a great weekend. Mine has been spent moving. I've learnt the hard way never live in a fourth floor flat with no lift. My parents kindly came to move me but both got tired quickly and as they had a drive back to Somerset I did most of the second load. I'm now rather achy. But it was good training for Tough Mudder.

As I was so achy I decided to pop to Lush on Sunday and pick myself up a bath bomb as a treat and enjoy a relaxing bath. I tend to easily get stuck in a rut and not try new bath bombs and bubble bars in Lush so I decided to chat to one of the ladies and take a suggestion.

I fancied something relaxing and she suggested Twilight and Christmas Pud. I went for Twilight after it was demonstrated for me. I was so impressed with how bubbly it was.

Twilight is a pretty pink bath bomb with stars imprinted in the top. I wanted something lavender to really relax my achy muscles. I loved the soft smell of this and the fact it wasn't overpowering. 

When the Twilight hits the bath it fizzes away pink. It leaves an impressive foam for a bath bomb.

Once part of the outer core has cracked blue starts to fizz away. I love that on mine some of the shell stayed intact longer than the core so the blue really fizzed away.

The bath was left the colour of a Twilight sky with a silver glitter running through!! So So So pretty, but best of all for me. No staining on the bath or messy clean up.

This is a really big bath bomb and gave a nice effect in the bath as well as leaving it rather bubbly for a bath bomb. It left my skin really soft and with a subtle scent. It also doesn't leave you glittery.

This is definitely one I'll be repurchasing!! As it is one of the larger ones it does retail for £3.25.

Have you tried twilight?

I'm such a bath person and love to have a good relax once a week with face packs!

Love

Review: Avon Glimmerstick Cosmic Eye Liner Twilight

After L had her make up done in Mac for her birthday I've been loving coloured eye liners. The Cosmic Glimmersticks from Avon. This range has a variety of colours and each of the colours hold multi colour glitter giving a gorgeous shimmer effect on the eye. Currently Half price at £3 here (I personally didn't like silver eclipse it lacked the glitter effect in my opinion)

The Glimmerstick range of eye liners from Avon don't require sharpening and have a twist action. The packaging has a secure lid (no worrying about this coming off in your handbag) and a colour coordinated bottom so it makes it easy to spot in your make up bag.

The pencil itself is soft but not too soft, meaning it's not going to drag along the eye but rather glide nicely.

This picture shows some of the different shades of glitter. It's really hard to pick up on camera. It looks flattering on the eye and not primary school disco as some glittery products can look.

I love this for easy make up days, a quick wash of neutral base and a line around the eyes and I'm done. It's such a pretty colour. Purple looks great on most eye colours as well.

I really love everything about this eye liner, the shade is perfect, not too bright and not too dull you can barely tell it's purple as I find happens with some eye liners. ( I was lucky enough to get the smashbox set for Christmas but I find the colours aren't bright enough to look great on the eyes) It lasts all day and can easily be blended out to make a great purple base for a night out. Applied all over and smudged with a bit of black in the outer V would look great.

What's your thoughts on coloured liners? I love them!

Love M
