Review | Lush - The Comforter...

Good afternoon, happy weekend blogerinos!

I'm so glad it's the weekend, this week has felt like the longest week in history & I'm so glad I can finally relax. I'm actually going for my first ever massage this afternoon & I cannot wait, I will of course let you all know how it went!

Today I thought I'd show you one of my newest purchases, a certain bath melt from Lush...
 The Comforter...

Whilst browsing in Lush recently I decided to pick up the much raved about Comforter bath melt. I've seen this all over blogs & YT for years, I've never bought it because it's slightly on the pricy side but I decided to give it a go. 

This is what Lush have to say:

'This isn’t called the Comforter for nothing. We threw everything we had at this one, to make it warming, comforting and reassuring. We wanted a bath that gave the same sense of safety and calm that your favourite teddy, your comfort blanket or a snuggly scarf gives.
At times when you feel you need to protect yourself from the world  - immerse yourself in this pink bath and allow the familiar oils to envelop you in a comforting berry scented embrace.'






I completely agree with everything above. The comforter makes the perfect bath, it creates lots of bubbles & smells beautiful. It also leaves you feeling soft & well moisturised, what else do you want from your bath?!

Here is how I use it...
 I break the comforter into 5 pieces and use one piece for each bath. I melt the Comforter in my hand under warm running water & here is the result...
A pink bubbly paradise!

It took me ages to work out what the smell of the Comforter reminded me of then it hit me, Love Heart sweets! I love sweet scents so I was totally in my element but if you're not too enthralled with sweets scents this won't be for you.

Overall I can't recommend this bath met enough. I know it's on the pricey side but you will get 3/4 baths out of The Comforter which only makes it around £1 a bath. It smells delicious and leaves your skin feeling beautifully moisturised, the colour & the bubbles are an added bonus too!

If you haven't tried this yet I recommend picking it up next time you're in Lush.

The Comforter is available from Lush priced at £4.15.

Have you tried the comforter? if so what did you think?

What's In My Bath/Shower...

Good evening my lovelies, I hope you're all ok =]

I have to admit thay nosey posts like these are some of my favourites, I love seeing what people keep in their bag/shower/etc! I thought I'd show you what I keep in my bathroom and reach for when having a bath or shower...
L-R: Fat Hair Thickening Shampoo & Fat Hair Thickening Conditioner, Dove Intensive Therapy Conditioner, Soap & Glory Pulp Friction, Philip Kingsley Elasticizer, I Love... Strawberries & Milkshake, Lush Snow Fairy, Molton Brown Heavenly Gingerlily, Rituals Yogi Flow, Aussie Take The Heat, Aussie Miracle Moist Shampoo & Miracle Moist Conditioner. Phewwww!

A closer look at the products...

Body Products:
Soap & Glory Pulp Friction Body Scrub:
I love this body scrub! I'm a big fan of Soap & Glory and this is one of my favourite products of theirs. I use this a couple of times a week and it leaves my skin feeling fresh and clean.
I love... Strawberies & Milkshake Bubble Bath:
I only bought this today so I don't know what it's like but it smells beautiful and I can't wait to have a bath with this later!
Lush Snow Fairy Shower Gel:
This is my favourite Lush product and I buy a couple of bottles of this every Christmas as it's only available then. It smells beautiful and the gel itself is pink & glittery, what more could you want?!
Rituals Yogi Flow Foam Shower Gel:
Another shower gel I hear you ask?! Yes, I like to switch it up! This came in my Glossybox back in December and I've loved it ever since. It feels like a luxury product and it smells gorgeous. I will be picking a few of these up when I've used up my other shower gels!
Molton Brown Heavenly Gingerlily Shower Gel:
The last shower gel I pinky promise! This came in my Harrods glossybox and as you can see I am yet to use it. I always forget about it being a little bottle but I will use it tonight & see how I get on.

Hair Products:
Samy Hair Hair Thickening Shampoo & Conditioner:
I bought this after Zoella recommended it & I'm really impressed. This shampoo & condioner leave my super thin hair feeling clean and they also add oodles of volume! I'm coming to the end of these now & will buy them again when they are on offer.
Aussie Miracle Moist Shampoo & Conditioner:
As you all know I'm a big Aussie Fan. I use these 2 products when my hair is feeling dry or I just want a change from the Fat Hair. These products smell gorgeous and doing a really good job of adding moisture to my hair. I've got my eye on the big bottles now!
Aussie Take The Heat 3 Minute Miracle Conditioner:
This is somewhat of a cult product on the blogsphere and It's easy to see why. This is hands down my favourite deep conditioner and I always have a bottle of this in my bathroom. If I could recommend one Aussie product this would be it.
Dove Intensive Repair Conditioner:
I've had this is my bathroom for ages after I got it as a freebie in a magazine and I've never got around to using it. I will give this a go soon, promise!
Philip Kingsley Elasticizer:
This is another product from Glossybox and I have to say I'm not sure about it. I probably haven't given it a fair trial as I've only used it a couple of times but a pre shampoo treatment is just a hassle for me. I will persevere with it and see how I go.

Wow, I never knew I had so many products in my bathroom! I reallllllyyy need to stop buying shower gel!

If you would like a full review of anything above please just let me know.

As I said before this is one of my favourite kind of post so if you have done one similar please leave me a link in the comments!

My Top 5: Soap & Glory Products...

Hello my lovelies, I hope you're all ok and having a good week.

Whilst having a clean out in my room I discovered just how many Soap & Glory products I have and I've decided to show you my top 5 products. *drum roll please*
Pulp Friction, Clean On Me, The Righteous Butter, Soap & Glory Perfume, Hand Food.

Pulp Friction:
"Get fresher, smoother and softer skin with fig powder, pumice, peppermint oil, lemonade tree liquid, orange waterjuice and vitamin balls."

This was part of the Hey Big Splendor set I got for Christmas and I have used it ever since! It leaves my skin feeling super smooth after every use and it is perfect for scrubbing off tan. When this runs out I will certainly be repurchasing it.

Clean On Me:
"Soft, smooth, sexy skin whenever you want it. Contains natural mandarin peel extract and bonus built in body lotion."

This is probably my 4th bottle of this showel gel and I still LOVE it. It has the classic Soap & Glory scent and leaves my skin feeling lovely after every use. Because it contains a body lotion built in it really leaves my skin feeling moisturised and soft, the built in pump is also very handy!

The Righteous Butter:
"Award winning body butter with softening shea butter and aloe vera. Smooth on a handful after your shower and you might swear you're wearing velvet."

This is a cult classic and has to be one of Soap & Glory's most raved about products. I have had countless tubs of this amazing body butter and I can't imagine not having a tub or 2 of this in the cupboard. I love using this body butter at night before bed, giving it time to sink in & in the morning my skin feels amazing. I don't need to say anymore about this product because I'm sure you all love it just as much as me!

Hand Food:
"Contains shea butter, macadamia oil and marshmallow. The most astonishing hand cream ever? You decide!"

The really is the best hand cream I have EVER tried. It's super moisturising without feeling greasy at all and it smells amazing. I have a tube of this on my desk at work, a tube in my bag & a tube on my dressing table, I love it so much! If you try one product from Soap & Glory this has to be it, the small travel sized tube costs just £2.50, what a bargain!

Soap & Glory Original Pink Perfume:
"A fresh fruity citrus with notes of bergamot, summer rose, peach, strawberry, gardenia blooms, jasmine, patchouli warm amber and lush musks."

This is basically the original Soap & Glory scent bottled. I have to apologise for the state the bottle is in, I keep it in my bag and it seems to have got rather grubby. The lovely Louise over at Sprinkleofglitter is also a fan of this perfume and it's easy to see why. It's a great every day perfume and It's perfect for keeping in your bag because the bottle is made of metal & not glass. I would certainly recommend giving this a whiff next time you're in Boots!

Soap & Glory Pulp Friction is available here & is priced at £8.00 per 250ml
Soap & Glory Clean On Me is available here & is priced at £5.50 per 500ml
Soap & Glory The Righteous Butter is available here & is priced at £10.50 per 300ml
Soap & Glory Hand Food is available here & is priced at  £5.00 per 125ml
Soap & Glory Original Pink Perfume is available here & is priced at £16.50 per 50ml

Soap & Glory have to be one of my favourite brands and one of my favourite things about Christmas has to be the gift sets they bring out each year. The packaging is often adorned with vintage images and it looks lovely in my bathroom.

What are your favourite Soap & Glory products?
