LUSH Top 5 | Hair & Skin Care


So, who likes LUSH?


I have a tonne of products from LUSH that I love. The bath and shower products are amazing but since working there I have gotten to know much more about the products. 

Sea Spray is a very unique product. It's a hair mist with the most gorgeous scent. The top three ingredients are Sea Salt, Grapefruit Oil and Neroli. It has a slight tackiness when you spray it out so I spray it into my hand first and then place it in my hair. I use this on towel dry hair and style it that way. It retails for £9.95 but a little goes a long way. 


Grease Lightning is a very cool product. I had noticed a few blemishes on this little face of mine and invested in this bad boy. Witch Hazel, Lavender and Aloe Very Gel are three of the ingredients in this. You can really tell this works and leaves the skin very hydrated, soft and the blemishes disappear. This retails for £6.40.


Dream Cream is such a popular product in LUSH. It sold out so many times when I worked there. I have to say after using it for a good while now, I can see why. It soothes and relaxes my skin so much. Cocoa butter, lavender and rose are just some of the ingredients which help moisturise and sooth the skin. One of the things I learned in LUSH is that this product is great for anyone with eczema. This retails for £11.95. 

Sympathy For The Skin is my personal favourite body lotion. It really is special. I have typical Irish skin, in that it goes red, dry and can be a sensitive buggar. Packed with bananas, vanilla, cocoa butter and almond oil it really nourishes the skin yet softens and nourishes it too. I love this so much. Get a sample and try it out. This retails for £11.75. 

Finally we have my favourite over night cream, Skin's Shangri La. I have road tested a few face moisturisers from LUSH but few have become favourites. This product has something called Queen of Hungary Water which tones the skin and gives it the fragrance. It also it known as rosemary which is steeped in vodka, rosemary is an antiseptic. I love how this softens my skin and gets rid of any dryness. In the Winter my skin gets very dry in parts. No more thanks to this baby. This retails for £29.50 BUT a little goes a long way and definitely get a sample before you buy. 


Have you tried any of the above? Let me know. I'm always looking to try new LUSH stuff. 

I also want to mention that I did work there but I was not told to say anything about the products. I use them all myself and love them.

NYX Face Off: Soft Matte Lip Cream vs Butter Gloss

Image
Want to know what I think is better from popular brand NYX? I am a huge fan of NYX. I love that whilst they have some dupes for higher end products they have a tonne of their own original products. The Soft Matte Lip Creams are an almost moussey feeling lip cream. I mean they don't call it a cream for nothing. I would highly recommend using a lip balm previous to applying this product. It dries matte so if there are any dry patches, it will sink into them. Whilst on the lips I would let it dry and apply as many coats as you like. I would typically use two. Whilst the colour is a vibrant hot pink (Addis Ababa) it can be sheered out to your preference. I find that these stay on the lips for up to four hours. Now, I have heard a lot about the hyped Butter Glosses. When NYX was released in Ireland earlier this year I decided to try one. I gave into the hype (oh no!). There was quite a selection but opted for Peaches and Cream, a gorgeous pinky coral. I hadn't and sti

My Acne Story | LUSH Grease Lightning

Image
Hello loves,  Well I have a different kind of post today. It is about my acne and a product I tested to try help it out.  I mentioned this in my Top 5 LUSH products post just this week. It is one of a kind. I am about to share some rather honest pictures so look away if you're easily offended.  My skin is oily in the t-zone area and can be dry elsewhere. It is also quite sensitive and I have redness on my jawline that can sometimes be quite visible. I use to have acne prone skin when I was a teenager and into my early 20's.  I will link to the LUSH website where you can see ingredients etc at the end.  I had noticed several blackheads on my face and really didn't want them to sit there and become worse so I decided to try this product. It straight away smells like Witch Hazel and Tea Tree which I like, it's an almost clean smell. It feels like a gel and as it dries you can feel it tighten over the designated area. This disappears when yo

Benefit 'Stay Don't Stray' Review

Image
Good Afternoon, Well it has been a minute since I done a review here. I will explain in a post next week where I have been and all that. So, I have always been a huge fan of the Too Faced Shadow Insurance. It is my absolute favourite eyelid primer. Nothing compares to it BUT I needed to try some more high end primers as my curiosity was getting the better of me. I saw some mixed reviews for this Benefit product, like seriously mixed reviews. Sometimes that is the selling point on a product, you have to find out what it's like then. They have two shade varieties, light/medium and medium/deep. What Benefit say about this product 'This dual-action power primer works 360 degrees around the eyes to make concealers AND eyeshadows STAY PUT. Concealers don't crease, eyeshadows stay vibrant & true. Contains sodium hyaluronate known to hydrate and Vitamins C & E known to help fight signs of aging.' When I first wore this product my expectat
