Lush - 'Yuzu & Cocoa Bubbleroon'

Hey everyone! Now this post is bacically a review on a Lush product I have bought recently. The name is 'Yuzu & Cocoa Bubbleroon' and it's a bubble bar, so you crumble it under a running tap for your bath and it makes it have creamy water and smells gorgeous.
So I literally JUST had a bath and my skin feels amazingly soft. It moisturised my legs actually, I actually didn't think it would moisturise but it was very nourishing. I really can't get over the smell. Just please, go to lush, walk straight over to this amazing THING and smell it. Please.

So here is what I done:

Put the bubble bar under a tap whilst crumbling it and it will melt really easily when it's breaking.
Then your bath will kind of look like you've weed in it, but to be honest I don't really mind because the smell makes up for it! Hahahaha









                                          Yeah that's what it looks like in the end :)
The main reason why I absolutely adore this is because of the smell. I can't tell you enough. I'll stop with that, lolol.
The water really was sooo creamy and you can actually feel that which is quite strange but really cool. It makes your skin super soft afterwards which is awesome because if you don't have time then you don't have to moisturise. It's not the same obviously but it does about half the moisturising for you. What i'm kind of trying to say is that if your in a rush you don't have to bother with it and it doesn't leave your legs dry!

I've pretty much explained it all really, hope you enjoyed this post! Definately going to be purchasing ALOT more products from Lush. I will tell you when I get something again! Lizzie xoxo

New Look Haul

Hey everyone, I know it's weird me having so many things in a haul pretty much before this, but that was collective so all of that stuff was brought over a while. Hope you understand! Even though, I do LOVE shopping...
Anyways, back to the haul!
In the nearest New Look to me, there is quite a big sale on. I think it's summer clothes and now their moving onto their winter stuff, but I must say it wasn't very summery so all the more for me to buy!
The first thing that caught my eye was this lovely dress:









As you can see it's like a blouse dress (I would call it that anyway) and it has some great collar tips. I think it's really nice for a dinner or something smart. I don't own any heels (unfortunately) but if I did I would wear this with some.

Next is this love top:









It's not really that sheer which is fab, because I don't have to wear a bandeau or vest top underneath. It's not really wintery but I think it would go just fine with a nice navy blue/black cardigan. The pink is a really nice colour too- just a sweet pink that isn't too bright.

Then I have this vest top:









I really really really love the sheer aztec part of it (which is all of it, lolol) because it makes it more fun. I think you could probably team this up with some block coloured leggings (maybe dark grey or maroon/bergandy) because the print makes it stand out and make an outfir so much more fun. The zip adds a nice effect too.

There were some nail wraps on sale!:









This is SUCH a nice print, it's kind of animal printed with lovely pink and purple merged in the background. I haven't actually bought any nail wraps from new look, but I'll give them a whirl and tell you all about it when I do.

Last, but by NO means least...

Oh, lordy... These are so beautiful! I think they are so smart and make pretty much any outfit look amazing. They are so vintage and I absolutely love vintage sort of things because they just look so original. I tryed it on with the dress and it looked really nice. I've been wanting these for ages, too!

That's the haul, I'm going to be doing a LUSH post next! Thanks for reading, Lizzie xoxo

L.A.Colours Nail Polish

Hey everyone! Here is another review, but on L.A. Colours nail polish. Here is my collection of them:
From left to right:
Base Coat, Splash, Sparkling Diamonds, Jewel Tone, Moody Red, Cranberry, and Tropical Breeze.
 
The week end that has just gone (15-16 sept.), I wore 'Moody Red' on my nails. I wanted them nice for the shopping trip that sunday:). On saturday I had a swimming gala with me sprinting on about 5 races, and surprisingly, the nail polish stayed pretty well.
I wish had a picture of how they looked after swimming, but I guess I'll just have to explain it. On both of my index fingers, they had only peeled the tiniest bit. I was so surprised once I got home. I was so happy when I saw it though, because I do go to galas quite regularly, so it won't really stop me from painting my nails before swimming!
 
Painting them its self wasn't really much problem either. With one layer on, it looked a bit sheer but it did dry really super quick. I was surprised but happy then too, because it meant I could do quite a few layers but it won't take a year and a half to dry.
It took about 3 layers to get a full burst of colour which didn't take very long at all because of the quick drying time.
 
The main thing I absolutely adore about L.A. Colours nail polishes is the colour range. It's humongous! There are probably HUNDREDS of colours in the range, which is sooooo good considering the price. I buy them at Beauty Base, which they sell them for only 99p which is probably the cheapest nail polish I have ever found, considering the high standard in which they are.
Another note is that if you do look in a pharmacy for them, they might be £1.99. I went into my local pharmacy a while ago and it was priced at that, but I didn't buy any because I knew i could get it for cheaper.
 
Overall, I think they are generally amazing. Dries quickly, wonderful colour range, fantastic prices and the staying power is grrrrrrreat. I highly recommend looking in a Beauty Base near you for these beauties! You'll be shocked at the colour range!
 
Thank you guys for reading and I'll speak to you soon! Lizzie xoxo 

Softlips Lipbalm

aHello everyone! Next is a review, woohoo!
As I have said in my last post, I will be doing alot of reviews on things because I have bought some things recently and I have tryed out a couple of bits and pieces. So, here is my review on Softlips' french vanilla lipbalm!



  So as you can see, it's a stick kinda lipbalm, not like the vaseline tubs. It's actually a really thin and small tube, which I think is pretty cute. It may be small, but ALL of that pink area on the stick is lipbalm. The bottom is how to twist it upwards to let you use it. It smells JUST like vanilla which is awesome, because I love the smell of vanilla. Another great feature of it is that is SPF 20! I actually haven't found/purchased a lipbalm with such a high SPF.
This balm is actually VERY moisturising to your lips. I would say it's much better than the vaseline stick. The vaseline stick it's self is actually quite a dry formula which isn't good. This is more water based which is fab. It also stays on your lips for quite a long time.
 
The best thing I would say about this is what happens once you've applied it. About five seconds later, it feels really zingy and fresh. I would compare it to when you have a kind of minty/very fresh moisturiser on your face, but it feels like this on your lips. I hope that kind of explained it O.K, I don't know how to say it any other way!
 
This was only £1.35 from supedrug, but HERE is the link if your not going out any time soon.
 
I hope you enjoyed reading this and I'll speak to you soon! Lizzie xoxo

Collective Haul

Hey everyone! I have brought together a few items which I've purchased recently and I thought I might show you them. I went to westfield yesterday, and then went to tescos (WOO) the day before. Enjoy!



These are just some hair combs, in a pack of 4. Tescos, Hair Gallery, £3




Next up from Lush is a bubble bar, which is called 'Yuzu & Cocoa Bubbleroon' which smells gorgeous, it was £2.95 and I will be doing a review on it soon!
 
 




 
Next is a cleanser and eye make up remover from superdrug. It's bacically like a body lotion formula but it removes your eye make up. I think I will do a review on it as I have tried it but i haven't decided if I like it or not yet. I'll try some more with it but I'll see how it goes. Oh and it was only 49p from superdrug, but it was a mini bottle, only 30ml :)
            This is a tinted moisturiser from Natural Collection which I was pleased to see when I did. I found it very nice and nourishing to my skin today, but I will be doing a full review on it as soon as possible. Natural Collection, Boots, £1.99
 

 
      These 3 packets are some more nail wraps from Primark. I have done a full review on them HERE so you can see my thoughts on them. Sometimes in primark, it's quite hard to find the things you want in the beauty section because it changes SO regularly. When I see lots of nail wraps that arein primark, I always buy them immediately because it's pretty unlikely I'll see them again. I got some gold aztec, colourful aztec and pink leopard print. Primark, Nail Wraps, £1


Next is just a sapphire nail file from tescos, because I don't know why but when I use the emery boards, they don't really feel strong enough, so when I use this (metal) one, it feels like it's doing a better job for me. Tesco, 50p









This is a lip balm called 'softlips' and I LOOOOOOVE this. I will probably do a review on it sometime but that's all I'm saying for now. The scent I got it in was 'French Vanilla' and it smells GORGEOUS. Superdrug, £1.49



(I put this picture a little bigger because there is quite a few of them:)
These nail polishes are from all different places. From left to right;
2True Quick dry polish in Shade 2,
Miss Sporty clubbing colours in '2180'
Miss Sporty clubbing colours in '2187'
Miss Sporty clear top coat
Natural Collection,Nail Tip Whitener
and L.A. Colours polish in 'Moody Red'
 
 
 

                          Sorry that looks strange, but blogspot won't let me put them next to each other :(
Last but not least, another Natural Collection product. I bought this beautiful lipstick in shade: 'Pink Blossom' and I was introduced to this by Karina (Her AMAZING blog is linked HERE) and I'm soo happy I've seen it. Again, I will do a full review on this as this is a haul, haha. Natural Collection, Boots, £1.99

That's it for now, but I will be posting for the afternoon as I haven't posted in a while! I will be also upoading a video to youtube later on today, so keep your eyes peeled on my my youtube channel!
 
 Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll speak to you soon!

Tumblr

Hey guys, so I thought I might just quickly link My Tumblr for you, because I've (kind of) recently started up a new tumblr as I can't get into my old one which is cool really because on this blog I understand layouts, and how to set it out and shizzle like that. Sorry this post is small, it's 11 o'clock at night and I can't really take photos! I will be posting tomorow as I do miss my blog and I love posting:( can't wait until after school really, haha! Thanks for reading and i'll see you tomorow, Lizzie xoxo

New Hair!

Hey everyone, today I'm kinda doing a mini post telling you about my new hair cut. I have got a side fringe! I've wanted one for a while really, but I just haven't got round to it to be honest. I got an inch off my ends also, because it's just healthy for your hair really. Your probably thinking, 'Lizzie, it's a hair cut. You don't have to make a post on it.' Er, yes, I know, but really, truthfully, I haven't actually had my hair cut since I was 6 YEARS OLD. That's 7 years ago. Blimey, thinking about it that's a really really long time. Hahaha, here it kinda what it looks like:

I do think I'm going to get at least trims much more often because 1, it does grow your hair MUCH quicker, 2, it's healthy for your hair, and 3, really, for me, I find it pretty fun. It sounds strange, I know, but oh well!

I've been shopping today, and tomorow I only have gymnastics later on in the evening so I will do a haul on here for you and I will also be uploading a video as I made one with Karina.

Thank you guys for reading, btw I'm sorry for not posting. No reason really, but I am still going to be carrying on with this blog. I love it! Thank you again! Lizzie xoxo
