All Things Bright and Beautiful

 I went into my local Lush store today and they're selling all their Christmas goodies at 50% off the full price so I grabbed a few things. Some of the other products are from the regular Lush range that you can purchase everyday of the year. Enjoy!

Butterball Bath Bomb

Lil Lush Pud Bath Bomb

Superstar Bubble Bar

Whoosh Shower Jelly  

Snow globe Soap

Fresh Farmacy Cleanser

Karma Bubble Bar

I absolutely adore Lush and i couldn't resist when they brought out their Christmas range this year. You can check online here to find out about availability and prices.

First off are the bath bombs which let me tell you smell AMAZING! They have a very warm comforting scent. I have tried the Lil Lush Pud before and although i loved the smell it made the bath water look browny and dirty which isn't very cool.

Next is the Superstar bubble bar which my son Tom picked up for me bless him! This bubble bar has frangranced the whole house today and it just looks so pretty and festive.

I got the Snow Glob soap and the Whoosh shower jelly as a gift set and it;s the perfect thing if you need a little something to wake you up or cure a hangover. The scent of these products is incredible, so zingy! i think you can still purchase Whoosh throughout the year so go have a look online or in your local shop. I have to say when i opened the shower jelly I was a bit unsure of what to do with it! It's like actual jelly and it's so WEIRD. I do like it though and i just rubbed some into a poofy until it foamed up.

Next up is the beautiful Fresh Farmacy cleanser which is like a chamomile lotion but in bar form and also contains lavender, rose and tea tree oils. This is amazing and it's perfect for skin prone to acne and excessive oil helping to calm and moisturise the skin whilst gently cleaning.

Karma. Orangy, bubbly heaven! This is also a product that's available all year round and so it should be! This smells so fresh and clean and definitely stands out from the rest.

Sorry I haven't got any prices but do check their website as some prices depend on how much of the item you want and don't forget to grab a bargain whilst the Christmas products are 50% off whilst stocks last!

Foundation for acne prone skin? I found it!

Revlon ColorStay™ Makeup for Combination/Oily Skin.

This is my holy grail foundation and I'm not just saying that!

Since purchasing this in Boots here it's changed the way my skin looks.

This foundation is a heavy, thick, matt coverage but it's also buildable so you find you won't even need to use concealer. This foundation comes in lots of shades and also has a SPF of 6 but you can't rely on that so be sure to use a sun screen. I would also recommend using a moisturiser suited to your skin type prior to using Revlon ColorStay, regardless of how oily your skin usually gets throughout the day.

As for the smell, it's not particularly pleasant but it doesn't bother me to be honest. It kind of smells like paint to be fair and it can be difficult to remove at the end of the day as it stays put for up to 16 hours. I find using a little extra virgin olive oil massaged into the face helps to absorb and lift the makeup from the face then gently wiped away with a warm, wet cloth. 

The price is one of the more expensive foundations (priced at £12.49) i have ever bought but it's also the BEST so it was worth every penny. So if your someone who suffers from acne and want something to cover it up and have tried everything, then try this!
