Baby Lips - Review

I've seen the words 'Baby Lips' thrown around quite alot on blogspher lately, and obviously, when I saw it at the checkout in Superdrug last week, I had to pick it up.

I got the flavour hydrate, as to my surprise, it was the only one left! I used it instantly thinking, 'whats all the fuss over' and was expecting it to be magical. My overall reaction? I just didn't understand. It was a lip balm? An over priced lip balm that tastes no different to a normal chapstick that would cost me 99p? 

I have continued to use it, hoping to fall in love with it. It's unfortunate to say, but I'm still unsure. I'm hoping that if I try a different flavour I might change my mind, but for now, I won't be reaching for it. 

I have to admit I'm gutted I didn't like it, I wanted to really love it like other bloggers have, but I'm afraid it's just not for me. 

Did you enjoy baby lips? What flavour should I try next? 

Lots Of Love

Beauty; My Top 5 - Lush Products

Recently I've been using up all my lush products before I step back inside to a lush shop (It's been nearly 4 months since my last trip...) and blow my entire bank balance. I found myself trying products that I'd picked up yet never actually used, or even remembered. So whilst using them, I decided I'd write up and show you my top 5 best picks from my collection! 

The Comforter. 

One of the more expensive bubble bars in the lush range, but totally worth the money. I absolutely love the smell of this! It leaves me skin so smooth and it lasts longer. With most lush bars, I find the bubbles just disappear quite quickly, where as with this one, I find they last so much longer.  

Rating; 5/5 I don't think I could change a single thing.

Think Pink;

I adore this. It's so freaking cute, with the little flowers that fizz away and the confetti that springs into the bath. It's adorable, the only thing I can't stand with this bathbomb is the way the confetti stains my bath. I has to scrub it away! 

Rating; 3/5 - The confetti stains the bath and it doesn't have a strong smell, which is something that I like in my baths. 

Space Girl;

The glitter, the whizz! This bath bomb, is plain, glittery and no hassle! I like it because it has a beautiful smell and leaves no mess. Plus, it's one of the cheaper and a bargain! 

Rating; 4/5 the only thing I'd change it, I'd hope the glitter would be more noticeable. 

Magic Wand;

I am actually gutted that this is only a limited edition around Christmas time. I stocked up and brought around 3 of these! I love the smell and the pinky colour it turns my bath. Feels very magical indeed! It's the little touch on this wand that makes it one of my best products, like the bell. As lush say, it wouldn't be a magic wand with out a little bell!

Rating; 4/5 - I wish it would last longer. 

The Bubble Beard;

I first wanted to try this after seeing so many bloggers rave about it! It produces tons of bubbles with such little product and I kid you not this lasted me around 8 weeks! (Ok so I did use others now and again, but that's still alot of bathtime!) I used this one alot when I first was able to bath again rather than shower after my operation! It's so silky and leaves me feeling refreshed. 

Rating; 5/5 (I can't fault this!) 

What are your favorite lush products?

Maybelline Nude Airfoam - Review

Hello Lovelies!

Today's post is a long overdue review on a foundation I picked up a few months ago, seeing as this has now run out, it seemed appropriate for me to be able to give a full review and opinion on it!

    I picked this up on sale in Wilkinsons. It was on sale for £3.99 I THINK! I had literally used up my MUA foundation, and for that price I thought I'd give it a try. It was...Ok. I will admit it was not something I was like, 'Oh wow, this is amazing!'. It was a "Well this will do for now' type of product. I found that to get a good coverage, and for my skin, this is something I look for in a good foundation, you'd need to use quite a bit. Another issue I had with this foundation, is I felt it left me skin feeling 'oily and dirty' which IS NEVER attractive! 

It had it's good points, the price was VERY reasonable, and if I got low on money and REALLY needed a foundation then I would go to this, but only if it was on sale. The colour suited my skin very well and that was a very good thing, who wants to look like an orange now?

I don't think would repurchase this, but that's only me! It might be ok for everyone else, but for me it just didn't work out. 

Have you ever tried this foundation? What's your best foundation? 

Much Love, Emily xox
