LUSH Mother's Day Ladybird Bubble Bar - review.

LUSH Mothers day 2016 ladybird bubble bar

Hello!

On Monday I was invited over to the LUSH store in Cardiff to check out their Mother's Day and Easter collection to get ready for Spring to start (which I cannot wait for btw!). As usual I only took 1 photo during the event due to me being whisked away to check out all the new products and try a few out that I hadn't come across before.

I had been in the previous week to check out the Valentines stuff (see my last post) but I was too early for all the Easter stuff but did pick myself up the cutiest little Ladybird bubble bar which is part of the Lush Mother's Day 2016 range.

As always I had an amazing time at the event, was pampered by the beautiful sales people and spent lots of money (oops!). We were also very generously given gift bags which had a few of the new products inside including another Ladybird bubble bar! This was great as she looked so so cute that I couldn't stand to put her in the bath but now I have two - in she goes!

Now then, you might be thinking ' girl, why is she sat in a sieve?' BUT one of the Lush gurus gave me THE hottest tip! I was complaining about how I always burn my hands under the hot tap, trying to get as many bubbles as possible, so was told to buy a cheap sieve (for bubble bar use only) and just hold it under the hot tap for the bubbliest bath ever - and boy, she was not wrong!

The water poured out like pretty, pinky hair which in turn made me miss mine so much! Sadly, I just don't think I work the kinda job where I can get away with it anymore! 

The smell this Ladybird gives off is just wonderful! Probably one of my faves I've tried in a long while. It contains peppermint oil which is always a huge hit with me and also geranium oil which has toning properties. The way the tub water went a gorgeous Strawberry red and the smell to go along with it has put this up there as one of my favourite bubble bars - I'm so sad she won't be around forever! The sweet yet fruity scent with a little hint of mint really comes out once you are in the bath. I was in there for a good hour and even afterwards it was all I could smell upstairs and on my skin.

The sieve was such a great idea too as I ended up with huge candyfloss looking mountains of bubbles which lasted the whole bathtime.

Have you tried this little lady yet?

Be sure to check out the Lush Easter 2016 range aswell and keep your eyes peeled on here for a review of some it soon ;)



On a different note, I am walking across hot coals in March to raise money for the cats in our care at work. If any of you reading this can even donate £1 it will help SO much more than you know! You can do so by visiting our JustGiving Page here: https://www.justgiving.com/BridgendCPfirewalk

or by texting 'CPFW70' followed by an amount (e.g '£1', '£5' etc) to 70070

Thankyou!

Mum in a Million

Helloo!

Today is International Women's Day and of course Mother's Day is right around the corner so only rightfully so I want to talk about my Mum and what a wonderful woman she is!


I am my mums only child so growing up all the focus ans attention is on me, this obviously has great perks but also puts alot of pressure on doing my mum proud.

It hasn't always been easy for us, my mum went through alot of tough times like staying with my dad until I was 18 pretty much putting her happiness last just to keep the peace. Although this situation is not ideal I'm glad she stuck it out as now she's married a wonderful man who brings her true happiness!
Being a teenager I was probably/definitely a bit of a nightmare and had my typical teen moments. Then when we moved out of the family home and into our own home we both worked everyday (my mum actually kept 3 jobs just to provide for us) and pressures of two women living can sometimes reach high levels! It wasn't really until I moved to Cardiff that I really could form a relationship with my mum that we can both enjoy.

I did this for one Mother's Day haha!

I actually haven't been home since Christmas, which I want to add was SO fun, getting drunk with my mum and singing Christmas songs until Midnight was a great way to spend the festive period. But with this new job and me trying to settle into it it's been hard to get back but in two weeks I have 4 days off in a row so I will be packing Prince up and travelling down to Devon for some home comforts and to do Mother's Day a week late.

So I just want to say a HUGE thankyou to my lovely Mummy for always being my biggest Cheerleader and supporting me in every single thing I do!

Now if you'd like to win a break away with your mum there is a competition over at ParcDean to win a weekend away worth upto £499! All you have to do is enter here: http://www.parkdeanholidays.co.uk/mothers-day-surprises/

I've entered so good luck to everyone (but mainly me :p)

Why is your mum one in a million?
